Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1458 Fighting Fire with Fire
"Mr. Yang, Mr. Yang."

In the conference room, Yang Xiaotao was communicating with Lao Feng about the situation of the experimental mice. In the past two days, the experimental mice had become abnormal and even died. While the two were combing, they heard Ji Xiang's voice coming from outside.

The urgent voice made Yang Xiaotao panic when he heard it.

"what happened?"

Seeing Ji Xiang running in, Yang Xiaotao asked directly.

"Mr. Yang, Dean Wang and the others are in a situation. Please go to the ward and take a look."

Hearing Ji Xiang's words, Yang Xiaotao knew something happened in the ward.

He put down his notebook and rushed out of the conference room.

Seeing this, Lao Feng also rushed out.

"what happened?"

Yang Xiaotao walked quickly, and Ji Xiang could only keep up by jogging behind.

"Dean Wang brought someone to check the patient's body today. During the examination, it was found that the patient's physical signs were declining."

"After everyone's investigation, it is believed that the patient has been tortured for a long time and all body functions have been severely damaged."

"After taking the pulse, Lao Zhu said that his spleen and stomach were not good, but it sounded like it was very powerful."

Ji Xiang explained the situation intermittently, but Yang Xiaotao only heard one thing, that is, Alphat couldn't wait any longer.

Arriving outside the ward, Mosidov immediately came to greet him, "Yang, save him."

"Save him, he is still a child!"

"I know I know."

Yang Xiaotao didn't care to say anything more, let the translator look after him, and then came outside the ward.

At this time, Dean Wang and several others were discussing the situation.

Elites from various hospital research departments came to the same conclusion when faced with this situation.

If timely and effective treatment is not provided, this child will not survive for two days.

"Boss Yang, the situation is very serious."

"Why did it suddenly get worse? Wasn't it okay during yesterday's checkup?"

Yang Xiaotao asked with red eyes.

Dean Wang shook his head, "Pneumonia is getting worse and worse. It can worsen even in half a day, let alone a night."

"What's more, this child has not only pneumonia, but also other problems now. If we can't get rid of the virus in the body and the problem of repeated high temperatures, there will be no cure for this child's disease."

Several people around them nodded. They had thought of all the ways they could think of. The key now was to solve the virus.

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, he knew what he was capable of.

He was able to become the person in charge because of his theoretical knowledge of microbiology in his previous life.

But when it comes to treating people, these old experts are more authoritative.

Now that they say it, that's what it is in all likelihood.

Looking at Alfat on the hospital bed through the glass, he was now skinny and skinny.

A pair of eyes were tightly closed, and his face was filled with a look of death.

"Meeting!"

Yang Xiaotao took a deep breath, thoughts flashed through his mind, and it took him a long time to leave a word before walking to the conference room.

Dean Wang and others behind him looked at each other and knew it was time to make a decision.

Every time a dead horse becomes a living horse, it always represents the doctor's helplessness.

It also means that life and death are right in front of you.

Wow
A group of people followed Yang Xiaotao towards the conference room.

Mosidov looked at the people leaving, and his heart immediately clenched.

He had already seen hope, but he didn't expect that this hope would be like a mirage, out of reach.

"O Guanyin Bodhisattva. O Jade Emperor!"

"Please save him, please save him."

"No matter what the cost, I am willing to do it."

At this moment, Mosidov knelt at the door, extremely pious.

In the conference room.

Yang Xiaotao sat at the top, with Dean Wang and Ji Xiang on his left and right.

Dean Feng and others were sitting at the table. There were people moving stools from behind, and there were even more people standing aside.

There were thirty or forty people in total, filling the entire conference room.

Yang Xiaotao took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, opened it, took out one and lit it, sorting out his thoughts in his mind.

Ji Xiang glanced at it and didn't care.

She knew how stressful this time was because she had been through it.

That kind of irritability without a clue, the sense of responsibility and the sense of powerlessness in the face of the withering of life can drive people crazy.

Dean Wang and others took the cigarettes and started smoking them together.

Soon, smoke filled the conference room.

The window is open.

A cold wind blew in.

The room remained silent.

After smoking a cigarette, Yang Xiaotao pinched out the cigarette butt and looked up at the crowd.

Looking over, everyone felt as if they were being stared at by a fierce tiger, and they couldn't help but cheer up.

"Dean Wang, please tell me about the progress on your side."

Dean Wang put the cigarette aside and picked up the folder beside him.

In this moment, his thoughts had been straightened out.

"According to what Lao Zhu and I discovered, after taking the decoction, the patient's body temperature will drop significantly within half an hour."

"However, the body temperature will gradually rise after half an hour, and then cool down again after six hours."

"This six hours is a bottleneck."

"Even if I try all kinds of means, I can't break through."

"However, during the research process, we also found that when golden needles were dipped in medicinal juice to stimulate different acupuncture points, such as Baihui point, Tanzhong point, Hegu point, Taixi point, etc., the patient's reaction was great, and even the body temperature increased. In terms of recovery, we speculate that stimulation of these acupoints will accelerate the reaction in the body. "

Dean Wang closed the notebook and said, "Time is limited, that's all."

Yang Xiaotao nodded.

Mainly traditional methods, which require time and consideration.

"Lao Zhu, you have a lot of experience. How effective can this herb be?"

Lao Zhu frowned, hearing Yang Xiaotao's question, and then stretched out three fingers uncertainly.

"If this is the same as before, I'm 70% sure."

"But this is fundamentally different. Although they have some similarities, there are still differences."

"Just maintain it."

Yang Xiaotao picked up a pen and wrote it down in his notebook, and then looked at Ji Xiang aside.

Ji Xiang understood and said immediately.

"What we are responsible for is extracting antibodies and using mice to test the resistance of the antibodies to the virus."

"So far, among the thirty white mice in the experiment, the first batch has all died within six hours."

"We purified and concentrated the second batch and injected it into the mice again. Twenty-eight hours have passed so far. Six have died, three are seriously ill, and one is healthy."

"The last batch was yesterday, and they were vaccinated with the pathogenic strain. There are no abnormalities yet."

After Ji Xiang finished speaking, Lao Feng spoke before asking, "We are here to study the mechanism of action of Artemisia annua, and to conduct comparative experiments between the original strain No. 16 and the mutant strain."

"The experiment has just begun, and the mechanism of Artemisia japonica has not been discovered yet." "However, based on the experimental character analysis, we found that the pathogenic mechanisms of the two viruses are the same. They can cause immune system disorders in patients, sustained high temperatures, and then It’s repeated high temperatures that attack the body’s normal organs.”

"In addition, based on the news from Shanghai, they used molecular means to test the encoded and expressed proteins and draw conclusions from a molecular biology perspective."

"There are similarities in the pathogenic mechanisms of the two viruses."

After Mr. Feng finished speaking, the conference room became quiet again.

"Old Li."

Yang Xiaotao looked at Lao Zhanzi.

"Ahem, I discovered that this virus was created from the original virus."

“It’s just that the direction of development is a little different, but the roots are still here.”

"Otherwise, plum blossom disinfectant can still play a preventive role."

After Lao Zhuangzi finished speaking, Lao Feng said directly, "Everyone knows this, please say something useful."

"It's useful. I don't know what's useful."

"This guy might still be mutating now. Who dares to say that what he said will be useful?"

Lao Zhanzi pursed his lips. The frustration that had accumulated in his heart for many days didn't matter what Lao Feng meant, and he just spoke back.

"Why doesn't it work? If you don't try it, how do you know it doesn't work?"

"You tried it, did it work? How many times did you try it, did it work once?"

"That would be more useful than doing nothing."

"That's nonsense. So much manpower and material resources have been used, only to be wasted by you without any purpose."

When it comes to reasoning, he really doesn't scare anyone.

"You, you~~~"

Old Feng was furious, and Dean Wang on the side quickly stopped him and tried to mediate.

The people around me looked at the scene with their noses and noses in mind, as if watching the excitement.

"Good old Li, I won't quarrel with you. Being messy is your strength. To quarrel with you is to lower your IQ to your level. I'm not that stupid."

Lao Feng shouted so that the entire conference room could hear clearly.

Yang Xiaotao was writing and drawing on paper. When he heard Lao Feng say this, suddenly, a light flashed in his mind.

Looking at the returns from Ji Xiang and Lao Feng, I always felt that there was something in common.

One is antibody resistance detection.

One is the detection of the original strain No. 16.

The pencil kept drawing circles on the paper, making them darker and heavier.

Ji Xiang looked at the two people arguing and saw Yang Xiaotao's indifferent behavior, and began to feel anxious.

If a fight breaks out, it will not be good for anyone's reputation if word spreads.

Just when Ji Xiang was about to speak, Yang Xiaotao raised his head and looked at what the two of them were thinking of.

Then write and draw on the paper again.

Ji Xiang was even more confused this time.

"Do not talk."

Yang Xiaotao shouted loudly, and the two people who were arguing immediately stopped, and the people watching the excitement also looked over.

But I found that Yang Xiaotao was still writing something.

Old Feng and Lao Zhanzi sat back down and looked at Yang Xiaotao.

patter
Put the pencil down.

Yang Xiaotao moved his fingers and made a clicking sound.

The people around me focused their eyes and listened attentively.

"I have an idea."

Yang Xiaotao said as he picked up the folder. The pencil drawings on it were messy, but two virus names were marked in the middle, which was very eye-catching.

"Team Leader Ji said that the mice survived during the experiment, which shows that the antibody has a certain effect."

"Dean Wang and Lao Zhu also said that Artemisia annua has three effects."

"Old Feng said that the two viruses have something in common."

All three of them nodded. Finally, Yang Xiaotao looked at Lao Ganzi, who felt a little uncomfortable. "Although Lao Li didn't say it, he told me a fact."

"What?"

Lao Li was confused, and others were also confused.

"People who work together are enemies."

When the words fell, Lao Li was greatly embarrassed.

Even Lao Feng couldn't sit still.

But what Yang Xiaotao said next left the two of them stunned.

"Then do you think the two of them are companions?"

For a moment, everyone was at a loss to react.

His eyes were fixed on the piece of paper, thinking about what it had to do with his colleagues.
Ji Xiang's eyes suddenly opened wide, and before others could understand, she immediately asked, "Mr. Yang, you, you want them to compete?"

"Correct!"

Yang Xiaotao said seriously, and everyone reacted to Ji Xiang's suggestion.

"No, no, one is enough. If we use two, what if it's not competition, but complementarity that creates a stronger one?"

Someone was saying loudly on the side, and everyone saw that it was Ji Xiang's superior, the director of the research institute, who was mainly responsible for studying the evolutionary direction of the mutated virus this time.

"Director Wang is right."

"But, as I said, this is just an idea based on the current performance."

Yang Xiaotao is not a person who cannot listen to objections. This possibility completely exists.

"But, we don't have much time."

"There may still be a lot of time left for us to study the shape of the virus and find ways to restrain it."

"But this kid can't wait any longer."

"Although it's a bit risky and a bit sick, I rushed to seek medical treatment, but do we have any other choice?"

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, Director Wang said nothing more.

Because what Yang Xiaotao said is true.

"Well, let's do this, Mr. Yang."

Suddenly, Lao Zhu clicked his tongue, arousing everyone's attention.

"This method has the meaning of fighting fire with fire."

"I'm guessing, maybe it can actually happen."

Lao Zhu nodded, "You don't know that in the prescriptions passed down by our ancestors, there are many very poisonous things. Even when we go around the streets to treat people, we don't use all the good ones. But it works.”

"So it's common to fight fire with fire."

"So, I think I can give it a try."

Lao Zhu gave his own answer.

"Try it on a mouse first."

Seeing that no one objected, Dean Wang took a deep breath and spoke seriously.

"I'll make arrangements."

Old Feng stood up and said, "Come with a few people and help."

As he said that, he ran out of the conference room, and there was Old Feng's voice in the corridor.

"It's ten past one in the afternoon. It's done before one thirty."
