Good Life in Qin Dynasty

The young man has a very ordinary appearance, carrying a wooden box and a medicine bag, looking a bit dull.

Li Jiyang almost lost his composure after listening to it!

Anyone who studies Qin and Han culture knows it, and even non-professionals have heard about it. Jing Ke was ranked No.1 in "Biography of Assassins" in history!

And the one who ruined Jing Ke's affairs is Xia Wuqie!

He is not a warrior, not a general, not a guard, not even a courtier!

He is a doctor!

It's a royal doctor!

That's it!

It happened to be recorded in the "Biography of Assassins" in "Historical Records".

It is also recorded in "Warring States Policy".

Later, Qin Shihuang gave Xia Wuqi two hundred yi of gold, saying: "Wuqi loves me, and I use a medicine bag to lift Jing Ke."

Besides Bian Que, he was the most famous person in that era!

Now that a living person was standing in front of him, Li Jiyang was very excited for a moment!

"Hello, Doctor Xia!" Li Jiyang quickly stretched out his hand, a historical celebrity!

Shake hands with him quickly: "Thank you for being here!"

If it wasn't for the wrong time, it would be fine to listen to his historical reflections!

Cai Ze smiled when he saw Li Jiyang like this: "I said before, Qin Anjun respects doctors very much, so there is no need to be nervous."

Xia Wuqiu was really nervous just now, when Gang Chengjun wanted to bring him here, he didn't want to come, because he felt that a person who became famous at a young age and the adopted son of the king must be superior, and he was not very good at following this Gang Chengjun still considers that he is a good friend of his tutor.

Otherwise, Xia Wuqiu would not have accepted the arrangement given to him by his master to join Mr. Gang Cheng after the death of his master.

Part of it is also because of the emergence of new medicines in Qin!

He also got some cold medicine pills, and the therapeutic effect is very good. Gang Chengjun also took him to study together, but he didn't tell Li Jiyang.

Now Cai Ze introduced him to Li Jiyang just to give Xia Wu a chance to stand out, Qin Anjun Cai Ze still knows, regardless of his young age, the future is limitless.

Xia Wuqi is the only descendant of his close friend, so he certainly wants him to live a better life.

"Hello, Mr. Qin An." Xia Wuju was at a loss for what to do, and couldn't bear Li Jiyang's enthusiasm.

"By the way, you said let me come. Is there a patient who needs to be seen? Where is it?" The person who went simply told Cai Ze the reason for inviting him to come.

"Yes, it's in the back room, I'll take you there!" Li Jiyang led the people inside, and mentioned their identities by the way.

I heard that they were all wounded soldiers sent back after frostbite at that time, because people in this era don't really have any impression of frostbite, so they can't be cured completely.

When they entered, the patients all lay down obediently, exposing their frostbitten parts.

After knowing that Li Jiyang is Qin Anjun, these people are very honest!

The reason is that the new farm tools that Li Jiyang made saved them a lot of energy. They couldn't do it themselves, and the wife at home carried them on their shoulders. Those farm tools were very convenient for women to farm by themselves.

All in all, they were able to live thanks to the good harvest at home last year. The family had surplus food and spare money, and they brought back a lot of them. It is not good to let them go back to raise them when they see patients. When they got sick, they still had to collect consultation fees, and the family’s savings were gone. Fortunately, they insisted not to sell food, so they could barely feed their own people.

Sixteen people had frostbite on their hands and feet, and ten people had frostbite on their hands. Li Jiyang realized how precious the gloves he made were.

Some were red and swollen, some were festered, even though they were cleaned up, they still didn't smell very good, Li Jiyang didn't dare to move forward, Cai Ze also frowned, I don't know if it was on purpose, but Xia Wuqiu didn't respond at all , looked at all the wounds very carefully.

"It's frostbite. If you don't take good care of it, you will suffer when spring comes." Xia Wuqi said seriously, "I can only treat frostbite with one method, that is nourishment. You can't let it get too cold or hot. Rely on the body to heal itself."

"It's obviously impossible for them to heal themselves." Li Jiyang also understands that in this era of lack of medical care and medicine, and many things have not been discovered, what Xia Wuqiu said is correct, but no matter how good these people's physical condition is, they can't bear it. Can't live up to the fact that their frostbite is bad!

In such a situation, how to heal yourself?

If they can heal themselves, the army will definitely not let them back. There is no shortage of food and grass in the army. The fear is that if they can't heal themselves and die in the army, at least they can see their family when they come back.

"But there is no cure for frostbite." Xia Wuqiu felt helpless.

"In terms of prescriptions, I have several." Li Jiyang thought for a while, and described the prescriptions for frostbite he knew.

In fact, he doesn't know much, but he has heard of and used snake ointment and lidocaine ointment in later generations. Unfortunately, it is not suitable for research now. After all, there is no penicillin. Where can I get lidocaine? Caine!

He has used snake oil ointment before, and the effect is very good. Unfortunately, it needs the oil extracted from the belly of the snake and more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials to make it. He is not a Chinese medicine student, so he can't remember so many medicinal materials!

But he knew another recipe!

Two and a half of lard, two and a half of end oil, two and a half of sesame oil, one and half of pine nut oil, and three and a half of yellow wax.

The end oil is badger oil.

This is the Laxiang ointment popularized by the buddies at that time. It is said that the treatment of chilblains is amazing!

But in this era, there is no yellow wax yet!

So Li Jiyang thought of another simpler thing, frostbite ointment!

The prescription is very simple, just two ingredients, lard suet and calamine.

Now he doesn't know what calamine is called, but someone must have made alchemy, so there must be calamine!

Forge calamine and grind it into fine powder, refine pig suet to remove slag, mix four parts of calamine and six parts of pig suet to make a paste, and apply it to the affected area two to three times a day.

The effect is very good!

"I have a lot of stones for alchemy in my place. You can go and see, which one is calamine?" Some of the stones he couldn't name.

"Then you still dare to eat?" Li Jiyang admired him to death!

This is decisively pursuing his own ideal with his life!

"I have tried to persuade you, but he has not listened!" Xia Wuqiu agreed with Li Jiyang's words, "I don't even know if those things are poisonous, and I eat them for alchemy."

The most important thing is to feed him!

Simply unbearable!

"You don't understand, Taoist alchemy is the same as scholars reading books." Cai Ze insisted on his choice.

"Let's not talk about that first, since it's alchemy, then you should purify the calamine." But he remembered that this is the thing that needs to be calcined before it can be used.

"Don't worry about this, I will do the calcination!" Gang Chengjun Cai Ze took care of this matter.

The group of three went to Jun Cheng's mansion. This was Li Jiyang's first visit. In the past, even the servants went there to give gifts. Li Jiyang seldom went out. The last time he developed pills was at his home.

Gang Chengjun's mansion is in the middle of the inner city, the position is neither high nor low. The location of this mansion is very particular. The closer the mansion is to the palace, the more it proves that this person is the candidate that the king values ​​and relies on.

Just like Marquis Wenxin’s mansion, it’s only two streets away from the palace; Li Jiyang is his neighbor, and it’s only two streets away from the palace. When he was in position, he was implicated!

He didn't live here, and found a place by himself. Anyway, no one would dare to do anything to him if he didn't leave the inner city. It could be considered a different kind of protection.

It wasn't until recently that he was once again valued by the lord that people gradually visited the mansion. Unfortunately, he didn't receive any of those people.

Gang Chengjun had a small yard dedicated to storing medicinal materials and red stones. After bringing people in, Li Jiyang searched for various stones, and finally, among a group of stones, he found them!

After Li Jiyang got it, Cai Zecai said, "It turns out that calamine is actually floating calamine!"

"What is this for?" Xia Wuqie was curious.

"It is used to prevent decay. This object is also called Heterolith, because it is a stone, but it is easy to break, and it will not sink for a while on the water. It is very different from other stones, so it is called Heterolith." And Tan: "Using it as a medicine to make alchemy, it is not yet known what the effect of the medicine is."

The corners of Li Jiyang's mouth twitched, it was already antiseptic, do you still want to eat it?

No matter how famous formalin is, he would never want to drink it!

"Your Majesty, I'd better find someone to ask about it before we decide whether to eat it or not!" Xia Wuqiu was a real kid, so he immediately opened his mouth to hit Cai Ze.

"It's okay, I know how to do it!" Cai Ze didn't care, and patted Xia Wuqiu on the shoulder: "You follow and take care of those injured."

In this way, Li Jiyang led Xia Wuqi back to Qin Anjun's mansion, Xia Wuqi took care of the wounded here during the day, and learned a trick by the way!

Li Jiyang asked people to boil the white cloth in water and take it out to dry in the sun. They wiped the pus and blood from the wounds of the wounded patients. The wounds of the wounded patients did not continue to deteriorate!

"There are a lot of dirty things that we can't see unless our eyes look carefully, so rolling them with water can play a role in disinfection." Li Jiyang told him so.

After the young man went back, he boiled all his belongings in boiling water. If it wasn't for people who couldn't cook in boiling water, he probably would have to cook it himself!

And seeing that the Li family was so clean, he himself shaved his hair, washed his whole body and changed into new clothes before continuing to guard the patients in Qin Anjun's mansion.

Li Jiyang admires such a serious doctor. Despite his historical aura, he is actually a young man who treats patients seriously.

There are also two doctors in Qin Anjun's mansion. As soon as Li Jiyang came here, he asked the old housekeeper to send his family to the medicine hall to be an apprentice. Now that he has returned from his studies, he didn't learn much, but he has a cold and a fever. It's still possible.

At this time is already very remarkable!

For this reason, Li Jiyang revealed some things about the medicinal materials to him. In fact, he himself is half-hearted, but who made his theories come from later generations?

Most of the time, Xia Wuqiu and the two little doctors admired Li Jiyang for his knowledge!

Moreover, Li Jiyang was very generous and gave each of them a piece of ginseng. The three of them were even more grateful to Li Jiyang!

As for those patients, Li Jiyang also asked people to take good care of them. Together with their family members, they had meat and vegetables for two meals a day, and even sent people to their homes. Not counting cleaning up the houses, they also helped plant their fields. up.

Three days later, someone from Gang Chengjun's mansion invited Qin Anjun, and the calamine stone exercise on the monarch was successful!

"My lord uses a sand jar to fill and cover, and calcines it in a charcoal fire to make it red, and then quenches it when it is young, and then forges it and then quenches it. If you don't ask for more times, I made it nine times, and the water flew over it carefully. Only use it." Gang Chengjun was very satisfied.

Li Jiyang was dizzy and wanted to get angry and shout!

If it wasn't because he was afraid of hurting Cai Ze, he really wanted to ask him: You have done this, and you are not afraid of smelling like a boy's urine?

Xia Wuqiu personally tasted the calamine stone with a serious face.

Li Jiyang was taken aback: Didn't he hear that it was soaked in boy's urine?

"Sweet, light." After a while, he continued: "Non-toxic."

Li Jiyang almost staggered and got stuck in the past, aren't you talking nonsense?If it was poisonous, you would have died long ago!

Gang Chengjun's family produced calamine, and Qin Anjun's family produced suet. Li Jiyang had someone kill a pig to make suet. "There is fat in the house!" Yang Feiying reminded Li Jiyang.

"The oil in the house is not appropriate." Li Jiyang told him: "This pork suet cannot be salted."

There are very few records of Xia Wuqiu in history, so it can only be based on speculation.
