Chapter 427: Disease Prevention
For a professional question like the Black Death, you have to consult a professional, and Lu Huan, who has six mouths, has long been idle, and from him, Qi Lang will definitely get a detailed answer.
"Do you doubt that those brutes will use rats to spread the Black Death?" When he heard Qi Lang's question, Lu Huan's mouth was so surprised that he couldn't close it, "This is really whimsical, I have never heard that rats can be so useful, are they used as weapons?"
"I just wanted to find the answer from you. Qi Lang still had that solemn expression, "I'm just skeptical, if you want to spread the epidemic in a very short time, I think there is probably only such a way." β
Lu Huan scratched his head vigorously: "That's right, the Black Death is indeed an extremely serious plague, which has long been proven by barbarian devils, and I will not raise any objections to this." But the use of rats as weapons, I have never heard of it, that is a kind of madness, and it is also extremely dangerous, after all, it requires long-term preservation of poisonous rats, and rats you know, they are everywhere, and if they are not careful, they will escape, and they may bring the epidemic to themselves. β
"Could it be that they have developed some kind of antidote?" Gulf offered his own opinion on the side, "According to the Gilana boy, the scientists on the Otto Empire are so powerful that they can even study the life and death of the sun, and for the Black Death, isn't that equivalent to pediatrics?"
Lu Huan was still shaking his head: "That's very difficult. With the medical methods of the brutes, they need very sophisticated means to produce those so-called injections, which are time-consuming and require a large amount of silver. It's like your anti-radiation potion. It's just that soldiers have a chance to get the injections. Ordinary people have no access to it. And this Black Death is no joke, once a certain mouse slips through the net, it will spread ten, ten, hundred, hundred...... If it did, the production of potions alone would bankrupt the Otto Empire. β
"But that did happen in history. Qi Lang remembered the demise of the Gondwana people, "It is said that it was Absion's hand that caused the death of millions of people on the Gondwana Peninsula. β
Lu Huan furrowed his eyebrows. After walking around in a few circles with his hands behind his back, he finally raised his head like an expert and said, "Unless they can make sure that all the rats follow orders, that they only show up in a fixed area and don't run around like headless flies, they will be killing themselves." β
Listening to Lu Huan, this kind of suicide attack does not seem to be the best method, after all, the tragedy that happened on the Gondwana Peninsula did not spread seriously, but a small number of rats crossed the mountains into the Valmont Mountains and brought some trouble to the innocent Lov tribe, but on the whole. Things are not out of control.
However, the Otto Empire is indeed carrying out a large-scale operation against rats, which seems to be a strong proof......
"Let the rats do their bidding......" Gulf muttered to himself. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh, "Baji!"
Qi Lang was suddenly awakened - rats do not obey the orders of humans, but what if it was given by Baji, who looked close to them?
"Parry, Parry!" Qi Lang shouted a few times outside the tent. It didn't take ten seconds for the raccoon's head to rush in: "What's going on, master?"
"There's one thing I need to know from you. Qi Lang motioned for Parry to sit down in his chair, "Is it possible for you to control animals, especially rats?"
Parry waved his hand vigorously, "Parry can't control them. Rats are never at the mercy of people, and even if you feed them well this meal, they will run away within a few minutes, and they will never have any gratitude to you. β
"I don't mean you, Parry. Qi Lang reformulated his question, "There must be some of you Baji with rat heads, I'm talking about them, is it possible for them to communicate with rats?"
Parry squinted his eyes with an expression of disbelief: "Master, I have to warn you that although we Baji look a little close to those inferior animals, our expressions and our actions are closer to humans. For example, I don't speak the language of raccoons myself, and Rathead Buggy speaks the exact same language as us, otherwise we wouldn't be able to communicate with each other. β
"Really?" Qi Lang was disappointed, "I'm sorry, I thought you ......"
Parry shrugged indifferently, "That's nothing, master, we're used to being misunderstood. All humans thought we were upgraded versions of the inferior creatures, but it never occurred to them that we were actually upgraded versions of the humans, just borrowing some physical traits from other creatures, when in fact we were superior - except for peeing on our legs. β
It seems that the road is blocked, and it is not known if there is any other way for Abcion to solve this problem.
Seeing that Qi Lang was deep in thought, the intimate Parry cautiously reminded: "However, when it comes to ordering rats, Parry has a separate idea...... That's just an idea, and it may be funny, but who knows, maybe the owner will get something out of it. β
"Don't sell it, just tell me about it. Lu Huan seemed impatient at this time, as if his wordy problems were just his personal and exclusive rights.
Parry shrunk back: "If Parry were a mouse, Parry would only obey the orders of cats or owls, because they are natural enemies of rats. β
Gulf let out a puff of joy, "It's a good joke, Parry, it's yours." β
Qi Lang also smiled helplessly, and was about to comfort Parry and put him back, but suddenly remembered a key thing: "What about the red-headed vulture? Is it also a natural enemy of mice?"
"Uh......" Parry froze, he didn't know much about birds, because Badge didn't have that kind of race. However, Gulf took it with a look of surprise at this time: "The red-headed vulture is also said to be not a natural predator of mice, because their prey is generally larger, and it may have to eat hundreds of food the size of a mouse." β
"That doesn't matter, Gulf. Qi Lang's face sank, "I just need to know if it's possible for the red-headed vultures to give orders to the rats and ask Schukin for me, she must know a lot about that." β
That was Schugin's reply, of course, for she had also had a head-to-head confrontation with Absion's pets, and with Shchukin's knowledge, she must have been able to tell if the red-headed vulture's possession of any other special abilities.
Gulf stood there with his head sideways for a long time, his face changing little by little, from the initial doubt to the end, he raised his head in fear: "Shukin said that your analysis is very reasonable. That's probably why Absion was able to control the Black Death, because the redhead vulture could control rats, and it gave Abcion an army of rats!"
Now it became clear that it was Abcion's own murderous methods! He must have cultivated a certain number of rats, and those rats were all with melanovirusin, and when the time came, he would send out this extremely lethal rat warband and let them go around, and at the same time make sure that he himself was not affected.
Back in the day, Parry had revealed that Billy the Whalebill reprimanded Abcion for being too cruel in his methods, and now it seems that it was because Billy the Whalemouth was worried that his brother-in-law had such great power, because the Black Death was beyond the control of even the Otto Empire itself. And from the fact that Abcion was not included in Tissot's escape plan, Billy Whale was actually extremely jealous of him, and there was no mutual trust between them for a long time.
The Black Death, that was a terrifying superweapon!
Jenny is in big trouble, and that trouble will be crushed to the south of the Zong Hao Kingdom with the rout of the Otto Empire!
Cold sweat began to break out, and Qi Lang had almost foreseen the horrific sceneβinnocent people groaning in pain among the sick, thousands of dead bodies falling to the ground, their bodies covered in dark red patches, and almost every breath they breathed would send the breath of death to their loved ones......
"My king, are you worried?" Lu Yan spoke in confusion, "If you're worried about those tall bakis, there's nothing I can do, but if you're worried about the Black Death, hehe, I've got a solution." β
Gulf was so angry that he jumped up and grabbed the little stuttering neck: "Before I lose patience, you'd better finish it as soon as possible." β
Lu Huan unhurriedly flipped through the baggage, took out a prescription from a stack of ancient books, and said with a smile: "As I said, nature has provided us with healing medicine for all the epidemics in this world, and the facts have proved this once again, what I have in hand is an economical and affordable prescription." You can't worry about the Black Death, for it's the stinking grass that is common to lakes and creeks. β
He patted Gulf on the shoulder again: "Of course, it is more important to take precautions, I suggest that the soldiers change your eating habits, try to give up the bitter coffee as much as possible, and drink more tea instead, especially those brutes, you know, the tea that is abundant in our Middle-earth is the best drink to improve immunity." β
"Tea......" Gulf tilted his lips to look at Qi Lang, "I just hope it's not black tea." (To be continued......)
