Aunt is sick?

Grete was startled. The relationship between the City Guards and the Temple of the God of War has always been close. If Aunt Eileen falls ill, Uncle Karen can use his connections to find a priest to take a look. At least Little John will definitely come...

So, what happened?

Why can’t we even hire a pastor?

"I'll go take a look with you!" Gretel said decisively. He ran in, picked up his surgical instruments and alchemy equipment, and quickly walked out of the mage tower. While riding the horse, he asked questions, and in the roaring wind, he listened intermittently to what Brother Raymond said:

Aunt Eileen fell ill the day before yesterday. I had diarrhea several times the day before yesterday. At that time, I just thought it was because I had eaten bad food and didn't pay much attention to it. However, yesterday I suddenly developed a high fever. From last night to this morning, I had diarrhea more than ten times. My stomach hurt so badly that I couldn't even stand up in the end. Uncle Karen saw that something was wrong, so early in the morning, he went to the Temple of the God of War to ask for a priest...

"Won't the priest come?"

Gretel asked urgently. Brother Raymond leaned on the horse and shook his head vigorously, with a bitter look on his face:

"The priests have all been invited away... Even apprentices like Little John have been invited away. There are people at the door of the temple... sitting, lying down, and people who start to have diarrhea when they lie down... Little Grete, you Didn’t see it…”

All people? !

Do you start having diarrhea while lying down? !

A flash of lightning flashed in Grete's mind. Brother Raymond's description made him think of one word reflexively:

Medical rush!

There are too many patients in a short period of time, and the strength of medical institutions is completely insufficient to cope with it - and if the symptoms of these patients are the same or similar...

The city gate is close at hand. Gretel reined in his horse and slowed down. Two city guards were on duty at the door. When they saw Raymond coming back with him, they shouted hello:

"Little Grete, you are back! - Go home quickly, your Aunt Eileen is sick!"

"Little Grete, can you come to my house and see me later? My daughter is also sick——"

Sick too?

Are there so many patients?

Grete was distracted, nodded randomly, and passed quickly. There is much less black mud and sewage on the main street than last time. It is obvious that the city cleanup plan promoted by Grete has achieved initial results. However, not long after, when I turned onto the path, the stench immediately hit my face.

It's too late...

The plan to remove garbage and feces and clean the streets was started too late...

Gretel tried to speed up. Arriving at the door of Uncle Karen's house, they both got off their horses. Raymond rushed in and shouted:

"Aunt! Aunt, are you okay?"

"I'm okay..." A weak voice came from the bedroom. Gretel followed the sound and saw Aunt Eileen holding her belly with difficulty and clearing the basin on the floor. When she saw him coming in, she immediately waved:

"Get out, get out! Dirty..."

"Aunt Eileen!" Grete rushed forward. The woman's pale face immediately turned red, and she half-turned around, desperately trying to hide the smelly basin in her hand. Grete rushed to hold her down:

"Auntie, let me take a look. It's okay, it's okay, I'm a healer..."

The basin was black and yellow, half liquid and half solid, all filled with the filth from recent diarrhea. Aunt Eileen was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do. However, she was unable to grab a big boy after being ill, so she could only let Grete carry the basin to the light at the door and observe it carefully.

Gretel sighed in relief. There was a lot of solid matter in the basin, and the color was darker. It was not the rice swill-like form he was most afraid of - it was not cholera! Thank God, at least it wasn't cholera!

He found a small wooden stick, stirred it in the basin, and picked it up to take a closer look. There is mucus, pus and blood, smelly but not fishy, ​​it is a typical stool with mucus, pus and blood - God, why would he want to see this in person? In his previous life, these jobs would have been done by people from the laboratory department!

Complaints are complaints. Combined with the previous symptoms of diarrhea, fever and other symptoms, Grete had already made preliminary considerations in his mind. Putting down the basin, he washed his hands and continued with the consultation and physical examination:

Fever, abdominal pain, tenesmus, hyperactive bowel sounds, and obvious tenderness in the left lower abdomen——

Consider bacillary dysentery.

In the absence of routine blood tests, routine stool tests, no bacterial culture, no colonoscopy, and nothing else, we can only [consider] bacillary dysentery...

Grete silently added emphasis to the word "consider". In the case of bacillary dysentery, the treatment plan is very clear, and some of them are something he can do now - Gretel didn't even need to think hard, he turned around and said:

"Brother Raymond!"

"How to say?"

Raymond squatted beside him nervously, watching Gretel's every move. When he heard Gretel calling him, he immediately jumped up:

"What do you want me to do?"

"Is there boiling water at home? - No? Then go and boil it! When it boils, pour a bowl over. Remember, wash your hands first, and then rinse the bowl with boiling water! Give me salt! Take some sugar too Come here at one o’clock!”

Raymond was busy doing it. Gray calmed down and sat next to Aunt Eileen, his eyes slightly closed.

The pathological changes of bacillary dysentery mainly occur in the large intestine, mainly the sigmoid colon and rectum. Therefore, the focus of treatment should also be the intestines.

"Health depends on life, life depends on it——"

In the palm of his right hand, a warm white light dimly lit up, and he pressed it towards the patient's left lower abdomen.

Kill germs, reduce intestinal secretion, speed up metabolism, and decompose toxins entering the blood as quickly as possible...

Grete thought silently, trying to describe the position and structure of the intestines in his mind, and imagine how the healing energy would pass through. The white light in the palm of the hand became brighter and brighter, and it took a long time to dim. Aunt Eileen stood up in surprise and pressed her abdomen:

"Little Grete, I'm fine! My stomach doesn't hurt anymore!"

"Auntie, lie down!"

Gretel pushed her down, turned around, took the water bowl from Raymond's hand, and fed her sugar and salt water. After waiting for another half an hour, and after confirming that Aunt Eileen no longer had abdominal pain or diarrhea, Grete breathed a sigh of relief and stood up:

"Raymond, watch out for Auntie, I'm going out."

"where did you go?"

"Go and see how many people are sick in this city!"

Gretel said a word, swept out of the room like the wind, saddled his horse.

He first ran to the Temple of the God of War. The three steps at the entrance of the temple were densely packed with patients. Then he rode his horse to the Temple of the Goddess of Spring. The door of the temple was closed tightly, and not even the temple guard guarding the door could be seen. Hundreds of people were sitting or lying in the small square, with filth flowing everywhere and the stench filling the sky.

Grete's heart became sinking.

Heartland City has a population of only 20,000. Just over 200 people gathered at the entrance of the temple to seek medical treatment.

So, what about those who have been healed by priests?

What about those who don’t have the energy to come?

You haven't gotten sick yet, or your condition isn't serious, and you don't think you need to come?

An incidence rate of 1% is already very scary - the medical system alone cannot sustain it. It needs to be reported, an emergency plan needs to be activated, and administrative power needs to step in!

Fortunately, it's not far from the city lord's mansion. Gretel rushed to the door of the city lord's palace, got off his horse, and grabbed a guard:

"Where is the City Lord?"

"Going out of the city!" The city guard had helped him during the Midsummer Festival incident and was deeply impressed by him. He answered quickly:

"Three days ago, more and more people were sick in the city, and the city lord went to the manor!"

well!

Gretel thanked him, stamped his feet, turned around and left. He went straight to the slums, walked through the familiar streets and alleys, and found Elder Erwin:

"Teacher, this won't work! The great plague is coming. Treating them one by one like this won't save everyone!"

Elder Erwin stopped casting spells. The old man's long snow-white hair and beard were covered with sweat drop by drop. He looked at Gretel:

"What do you propose?"

"Please ask the teacher to summon all the leading figures in the city and re-establish order. Then——"

Grete looked out the door. Looking at the endless line of people winding out of the door, looking at pairs of eager eyes:

"Let's stop this plague!"

What happened this time was a plague. Did anyone guess it in the last chapter?
