Xiaoyao Nongjiazi
Chapter 65
Perhaps Zhong Qingran had enough good fortune, and the soup he prepared had a good preventive effect.People who drank the medicine had a very low chance of contracting the disease. However, for the infected patients, the effect was not very good. It only slowed down the rate of further deterioration of the disease, and there was still a long way to go before being cured.
Seeing several family members of the patients looking at him with pleading eyes and pinning all their hopes on him, Zhong Qingran was worried, this was already his limit.He carefully examined the pulse of several patients, but he could not determine what the disease was.It looks like dysentery, but it turns out that it is not. Otherwise, the previous soup should be more effective than this.
In addition to this normal method, Zhong Qingran also used the ability of Fu Yunzhu, but this time the effect was not so good, the pointer was not facing the many prescriptions he provided, and obviously the most suitable medical prescription was not right for the symptom.
The medicine should not be taken indiscriminately, Zhong Qingran thought about it, and prescribed this medicine selected through the Fortune Pearl. The dosage is not too large, even if it is not very suitable, it can minimize the side effects on the body.
The two families with the most serious condition of the patient were almost grateful. They ran home with the medicine package they had finally obtained, and kept making soup and medicine for them. Unfortunately, although the effect was better than the previous one, it was still the same. Not much improvement.
Zhong Qingran is really out of luck now, all the prescriptions he has been tested by Fu Yunzhu, and none of them are completely suitable for the symptoms. Could it be that this is a new disease that has never appeared before?
Zhong Qingran scratched his head a little, this is an epidemic, if it is not resolved, there will be no peace for a day.He can't just drink a bowl of dark, bitter and astringent soup medicine every other day or two, can he?When is this a head?Don't forget, they need to collect all the medicinal materials by themselves. If this continues, the medicinal herbs on the nearby hills will probably have to be harvested by them.
It seemed that relying on the medical prescriptions learned from his grandfather could not solve the current problem, so Zhong Qingran had to pin his hopes on the lucky luck beads.
Thinking about it this way, it is impossible for Zhong Qingran to rely entirely on Fu Yunzhu. If he really does this, he may not be able to afford the consumption of Fu Yun.Zhong Qingran concluded long ago that the greater the contribution to the people of this world, the higher the consumption of luck.No matter from which point of view, Zhong Qingran had to make good use of the professional knowledge of Chinese medicine he had learned.
It is necessary to determine the medicinal materials to be used in the new prescription first, and then determine the dosage. This is not over yet. There must be no mistakes in the delivery time of the main medicine and auxiliary medicine, and the processing method.With such a set, even with the help of Fu Yunzhu to help screen, it is still a huge project.I also want to know that the birth of a new prescription will not be so easy.
Zhong Qingran is lucky, Fu Yunzhu can greatly reduce the development process for him, otherwise, with his ability, it will be impossible in a short time.
After drinking the first batch of preventive decoction, except for those with weak resistance who unfortunately got infected, as long as the rest of the people drink the preventive decoction on time, no one will get sick again.After using the second prescription, the condition of the diseased patients in the village has been brought under control, not getting better, at least not getting worse.
After taking preventive measures, the head of Banshan Village continued to send people to collect the corpses of the villagers at the foot of the mountain.Their village was poor, and those people who had nothing to do with the villagers were buried together on the cemetery of that village, not to mention coffins, most of them didn't even have a straw mat to wrap their corpses in.They have tried their best, but there is nothing they can do, their village only has this ability.For those other people, it is better, at least relatives and friends will give them a ride.
As for places further afield, it's not that the villagers have never been there before, but when they saw the nearest Yangshu Village and the miserable conditions of the surviving villagers, they were stopped in their tracks.After helping the Yangshu villagers to bury the corpses that they hadn't had time to restrain, the villagers in the middle of the mountain dared not move forward.Everyone cherishes their lives. If they contract other diseases, they will regret it to death?
Yangshu Village was really miserable. More than [-]% of the people who survived the flood were infected with the disease, and the most serious people were already terminally ill, apparently hopeless.
After the head of Banshan Village got the news, he couldn't bear it, so he asked Zhong Qingran for medicine.The meaning is very clear, in the case of ensuring that everyone's life is safe, if there is a surplus, can you distribute some medicine to the villagers of Yangshu.
Zhong Qingran did not object, thinking that the demand for medicinal materials might increase in the future, he discussed with the village chief and asked him to send a few people to follow Jian Mingyu into the mountains to collect medicinal materials.
How could the village chief have any objections? He was really looking forward to it. The state government has not yet sent an official to come here. It is conceivable that the situation in the state city is very bad.Whether they can survive or not depends on the little brother in front of them.
It is a pity that the prescription Zhong Qingran prescribed was not completely suitable for the symptoms. After the Yangshu villagers took the decoction, the patients in the advanced stage of the epidemic still failed to escape, and passed away one after another.For patients with mild symptoms, their condition has been brought under control, but that's it, there is no sign of a cure.
That's all, for the patients who contracted the disease, their family members didn't have much hope. What made them most grateful was that Zhong Qingran provided a preventive decoction, which was very effective.Originally, people got sick almost every day, but after drinking this decoction, new patients almost disappeared.
Yangshu villagers wanted to enter Banshan Village to thank them, but were stopped by Banshan villagers.The village chief has explained that at a time like this, outsiders can't enter unless they can.The villagers in the middle of the mountain also left after delivering the medicine, and they would not delay for a while.
Zhong Qingran is very busy these days, but he is not so busy that he does not hear what is going on outside the window. He still understands the situation outside.Hearing what people say is not the same as experiencing it personally. Zhong Qingran can't empathize with the pain of losing a loved one, but at least he can understand a little bit.
In order to get out of the predicament as soon as possible, Zhong Qingran devoted all his attention to developing new prescriptions.Lucky beads are easy to use, but there are many limitations.He also discovered only recently that there is not only a limit to the number of times a day to actively use the lucky beads, but also an upper limit to the number of screenings per time.
Just like now, Zhong Qingran wanted to choose the right ones from the huge amount of medicinal materials. If there were no restrictions, it would probably be done within a day.The fact is, several days have passed, and he is still being screened.
Screening ten kinds of medicinal materials at a time, up to twenty times a day, which means that two hundred kinds of medicinal materials can be screened in a day. For ordinary prescriptions, one day should be enough. After all, Zhong Qingran is familiar with the effects of various medicinal materials, and the first ones to pick out are The medicinal materials related to the disease, but he had never heard of the disease, and even the medicine was very unorthodox.Judging from the selected medicines, except for the main medicine, which is still in his cognition, he has never thought of a small number of auxiliary medicines.
Fortunately, Zhong Qingran had a wealth of knowledge about medicinal materials, otherwise, even with the help of Fu Yunzhu, he would not be able to formulate the right prescription.Hard work paid off, and the last blind medicine was finally selected.The next step is to determine the dose, which is easy to handle.Make a dial with a well-balanced scale, mark the number of commonly used doses, turn the pointer in the center, and get it all at once.
Another two days passed, and the new recipe was finally released.
Zhong Qingran finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the patient's family almost rushed over after hearing the news.After explaining the cooking matters clearly, Zhong Qingran slept with his head covered for a whole day before he adjusted his energy to the best state.
"Are you awake?" Jian Mingyu's tone was brisk, with the air of a young man flying high, which is rare.He has always been mature and reserved, and his emotions are rarely displayed so clearly.
"You look so relaxed, the new prescription is working?" Zhong Qingran looked at Jian Mingyu expectantly.
"Well, even the symptoms of the first two people who got sick are getting better, and the others are getting better results. It must not take long before the epidemic can be cured." Jian Mingyu smiled from the corner of his eyes and reached his eyes.
"That's good. We have been delayed in Banshan Village for several days. If we can't go back on time, my family will be worried."
Things are not as optimistic as Zhong Qingran thought, everyone is afraid of death, especially those in the upper class who are used to enjoying life, they are even more afraid of their lives.
The area around Yuzhou City was blocked shortly after the outbreak.There are a large number of officers and soldiers guarding all the roads, nearby capable doctors are urgently recruited, and medicinal materials are continuously sent to Yuzhou City, but even so, the epidemic cannot be curbed. Later, even the imperial physicians participated, but the epidemic is still ongoing. The affected area is raging, and even has a tendency to spread to the surrounding areas.
The officials of the nearby prefectures and counties were in a hurry. Under the rule of Yuzhou City, people died every day, and the number was not small. This was a great devastation for officials of these neighboring counties.The common people can think of ways to run to farther places, but they can't. Didn't anyone with a little connection run away with their families?
Once the wealthy households left, the store business dropped by more than one notch, and the commercial tax paid naturally decreased, which had a great impact on the performance of officials.That's all, the most important point is that their lives are threatened, and they can't leave their posts without authorization, which makes them very tormented.
"Report, my lord, someone is asking to see you outside, this is his pass token."
Qi Zhizhou took a look, his expression changed drastically, and he said excitedly: "Quick, please come in."
"My lord, please."
Xing Wu was respectfully led into the prefectural office by the yamen, and Qi Zhizhou hurriedly got up to greet him: "Master Lin, please sit down, the epidemic is serious here, I don't know why Master Lin took the risk to come here?"
Xing Wuneng was the person in charge of external affairs when Qiu Shaoan went out, and his ability to communicate with people was extraordinary, unlike other brothers who kept a straight face all day long, took out a pack of medicine and two prescriptions from his arms, and put them on the table Come on, with a slight smile, explaining the purpose of coming: "Master Qi, this is a medicine for this epidemic. After testing, it is very effective. The prescription is here, please arrange it immediately, Mr. Qi."
"Really?" Qi Zhizhou stood up excitedly, disregarding etiquette, and even spoke with a trill.
"Ah."
"I'll take care of it right away." Everyone in Qi Zhizhou came to the door, and then remembered that Mr. Liu hadn't made any arrangements, so he hurriedly ordered the Yamen to arrange it.
Qi Zhizhou was lucky. Many officials in the prefectural government were infected with the epidemic. He, the highest-ranking official in Yuzhou City, had nothing to do.But at this time, there are more official duties than before, and he can't handle the official duties alone. Besides, he has to appease the people living in the city. For the past few days, he can be said to be exhausted and worried.
The arrival of Mr. Lin just solved his urgent need. Qi Zhizhou swept away his gloomy and gloomy expression, and became full of vigor and energy.
Although the doctors in Yuzhou City failed to solve the epidemic, the prevention and control effect was still there. There was not a single corpse in the city, and the patients infected with the epidemic were gathered together to avoid secondary infection.
"Medical officer Bai, grab the medicine according to this prescription, and distribute it to the patient immediately. This package is a finished medicine, you can take a look first." Qi Zhizhou sat down and refused to leave, he had to see the effect with his own eyes.
Bai Zhongnian is more than confused, he is a famous imperial doctor, he can be sent to such a dangerous place where the epidemic broke out, either he is favored by his superiors, or he is an outcast by his colleagues, Bai Zhong belongs to the latter.It's just that this doesn't mean that his medical skills are not good. As a leader in the field of medical skills, he should have a little bit of arrogance.
Soon, Bai Zhong went through the prescription, the more he looked at it, the more puzzled he became, and he just slapped the table when he saw the back: "Who wrote this prescription, I don't understand it at all."
The other doctors also gathered around after hearing the movement. After reading it, most of them reacted with Bai Zhong, only a few frowned and thought about it, but they couldn't figure out the medication rules of this prescription.
"Master Qi, which doctor prescribed this prescription? Are you not afraid of causing problems if you take such random medicines?"
"Yeah, I've lived to this age, and it's really unheard of. I've learned a lot today. If this prescription works, wouldn't my medical skills in this life be in vain?"
"Yeah, several medicines are contradictory, and the medicines are also strong, so it doesn't look like a good prescription."
……
Qi Zhizhou was only concerned about joy just now, he hasn't read the prescription yet, he has dabbled in medical skills a little bit, so he brought it up and took a look at it with trepidation, but with his superficial knowledge, he couldn't figure it out even if he looked at it vertically Right, I just know that as one of the doctors said, there are indeed several medicines that conflict with each other.
Just thinking about the identity of the person who came, Qi Zhizhou's determination, which had just wavered, immediately became firm. The master behind it would not make fun of this matter. If this is the case, wouldn't he give his brother a ready-made handle?How could the Lord be so stupid.
Thinking of Master Lin's explanation, Qi Zhizhou motioned for silence: "Stop arguing, decoct this pack of medicine first, find a patient who hasn't coughed up blood and take it, and you can see if it works."
"Master Qi, how can medicine be used indiscriminately?"
"Do you have a way to cure this epidemic?"
The doctors at the scene were dumbfounded for a moment when they were asked. Many people blushed and wanted to argue a few words, but they didn't know what to say.
"That can't ignore life."
"Sooner or later, you're going to die. Why don't you give it a try? The person who brought the medicine is Mr. Lin. He can't use this to deceive people. Don't worry." Qi Zhizhou felt that it was a waste of time to entangle himself in this matter, so he simply used his official position to suppress others. , called the doctor boy and gave orders directly.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hospital was quite awkward, but Qi Zhizhou didn't care.After the flood, the population of Yuzhou City had already decreased a lot, but then the epidemic broke out. It has been more than half a month now, and it has not been resolved. Yuzhou City can be said to be seriously injured.If it continues like this, it will become an empty city just around the corner.
Qi Zhizhou didn't want to see this kind of situation. Someone came up with a plan. No matter whether it was correct or not, he had to try it, otherwise he would not be able to pass this hurdle. Even if he didn't die of illness, he would be dealt with by today.Anyway, the result can't be worse, why not give it a try?
The process of decocting the medicine was not short. Qi Zhizhou used to be patient, but now he was suffering so much that his days felt like years.But no matter how anxious you are, isn't there all necessary procedures?
Time passed by every minute and every second, no one in the hospital room spoke, and it was so quiet that it made people worry.
"Lord Qi, the medicine is ready." The crisp voice of the medical boy broke the silence of the room, and everyone present seemed to come alive again.
Seeing that Qi Zhizhou also wanted to follow, all the doctors urged: "Master Qi, the state government still has you in charge, you can't put yourself in danger."
Qi Zhizhou thought about it for a while, then withdrew his step forward: "That's okay, I'll wait here, and let me know as soon as there is news."
Soon, all the doctors who could leave left, and the infirmary suddenly became much deserted.
After about two hours, someone came back to report: "Master Qi, the medicine is really effective! The symptoms of the patients who tried the medicine have been relieved."
"Really?" Qi Zhizhou stood up suddenly, because he was too excited, he didn't even notice that the chair was brought down.
"Ah."
"Let's go and have a look."
In the separated residential houses, there are several patients in each room, and each of them looks numb. As the days go by, they have obviously lost their fighting spirit and have no hope for life. After staying in such a place for a long time, there is no hope. Illness can also cause illness.In addition, this epidemic caused vomiting and diarrhea in the early stage, hemoptysis in the later stage, and the smell was very strong. The environment is not much better. If the patient lives in such a place, the condition will only get worse.
Qi Zhizhou frowned, resisting it so as not to attack.
"Is this the drug tester?"
"Yes."
"How is the situation now?"
"Much better, significantly fewer seizures."
"Then quickly send someone to decoct the medicine. The medicinal materials in the hospital will be used first, and I will raise the rest."
Qi Zhizhou didn't stay in this place much, there are many official duties in the yamen, it's not easy for him to spare a few hours, if he delays any more, he might have to work overnight today and tomorrow, his body probably won't be able to bear it.
A few days later, Yuzhou City.
"Hey, I'm a step late." A middle-aged scribe who looked like a traveling doctor had a strange look in his eyes, carefully looked at the medicine bag in his hand, and compared it with the prescription he had prescribed. Except for the deviation, everything else is the same. He murmured, "It seems to be better than my prescription. Let someone try it first to see if my guess is correct. I don't know which famous doctor it came from. There must be a while."
After researching the new prescription, Zhong Qingran had nothing to do, so he simply rested.He spent a lot of mental energy these days, and he just took advantage of this time to take good care of his body.
Since the last rainstorm, there has been no rain near Banshan Village, and every day is sunny and cloudless.
Dianbai and Minglei had a great time playing on the mountain, and every time they rushed home before nightfall, most of the time they brought back some spoils.Sometimes it's a half-grown pheasant, sometimes it's a snake, and a few times it's even a mouse.After being told by Zhong Qingran several times, they stopped sending their messy prey home.
Jian Mingyu watched the two young eagles dislike Zhong Qingran while giving him their prey regardless of past suspicions. He really didn't know what to say about them. He shook his head and continued to work on the task at hand.I thought to myself that fortunately Hewan Village is far away from here, so there was no disaster, otherwise, I don't know what the situation will be.
Zhong Qingran looked at the Fortune Pearl, the fortune was slowly rising, the corners of his mouth were wide open, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.It is not in vain for him to study new prescriptions, these are the rewards he deserves.
You know, in order to develop this recipe, Zhong Qingran almost spent all his luck. If he didn't earn his money back, it might not be so easy for him to save someone in the next time something like this happens.
Over the past year, Zhong Qingran has made a lot of money by cooperating with shopkeeper Fu. How could he have thought that his fortune would be basically exhausted after only two shots. If there is no compensation, his trip this time would be meaningless. It may be necessary to use the ability of the Fortune Orb, but without the support of Fortune, he can't guarantee whether he has the ability to help in the hierarchical boundary of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Caravan assembly point.
"Finally, we can leave this broken place."
"Yeah, I'm a vegetarian every day, and my face turns green."
"There's nothing to complain about. If we weren't lucky, there happened to be a person with medical skills in the convoy. I'm afraid we might lose our lives. I heard that many people died of the epidemic outside, plus the flood, Almost every household has white banners floating, and just listening to it can infiltrate people.”
"What you said makes sense, but I still want to eat meat."
"What a foodie." The person who spoke obviously had nothing to do with this person.
The convoy moved forward slowly, and the villagers in the middle of the mountain were sent all the way before returning.
Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu looked at the increasingly crowded carriage, both speechless.Most of the extra things were given by the villagers, and this was because they had consumed a lot. If the carriages were not packed enough, I am afraid they would have sent more things.
Most of the villagers were solid-minded, and they took out the best things in the house and offered them with both hands to thank Zhong Qingran for saving his life.None of them were very valuable things, most of them were pickles from the mountains and the like. The problem was that the gift was a kind one, and Zhong Qingran couldn't refuse it, so each family took some, so that they could feel at ease.
As the wheels rolled forward, Zhong Qingran looked at the whiteness of the villages on both sides of the official road, and felt a little blocked.He has tried his best, if it is not for the help of Fu Yunzhu, he may not even be able to save his own life, let alone save others.
This was the case all the way, the convoy never saw the noise before, and the situation did not improve until they left the epidemic area.
This time the Shuojiang breach was relatively large, not only Yuzhou, but also two prefectures and counties were affected.Because the floods in the other two prefectures and counties dissipated relatively quickly, the epidemic situation was much lighter than that in Yuzhou.
When the convoy passed by one of the counties, it was obvious that the atmosphere here was more relaxed than in Yuzhou.
Zhong Qingran originally planned to go to Yuzhou City to have a good time, but he never thought that he would encounter so many things and be delayed for so long. Now that the team's schedule is very tight, it is not easy to stay in Yuzhou City for a long time.
The closer to Shangjing, the denser the population, and the more prosperous the towns passing by.The dignified atmosphere of the team was gone, and the laughter gradually increased.The deceased is gone, and only relatives and friends will still think about it from time to time. To them, they are just strangers.
Qiu Shaoan: "Those people have been dealt with?"
"Yes."
"How many people were lost?"
Xingjiu compared a number.
Young Master Qiu moved his eyelids and motioned for him to go down.Internal slander: He is really his good brother, but he is still so impatient.Soon, when his body is fully recovered, he should be able to collect the net.
"Finally arrived in Beijing!"
"It's the first time I've seen such a majestic city. Look, those guards are so mighty with silver armor and silver spears!"
"There are so many people entering the city, how long are we going to line up?"
……
Zhong Qingran lifted the corner of the curtain, looked at the endless team, and felt emotional. This is the heart of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it really is not comparable to a small place like Pingyang County.In fact, Pingyang County is not bad at the county level, but when compared with Shangjing, it is obviously inferior.
Zhong Qingran didn't feel much envy. He had seen many cities in modern times, which were more prosperous than this one, so he wouldn't be fascinated by it.Turning his head to look at Jian Mingyu, the smile in Zhong Qingran's eyes was even bigger.He saw the right person, Jian Mingyu had a firm mind, and would not be easily confused by these gorgeous things, so there was no need to worry that he would keep his heart here.
At first, Zhong Qingran thought he would wait for a long time, but unexpectedly, he was led to another door to the side, where there were much fewer people, and there was only one motorcade in front of them.
Zhong Qingran blinked, his face was still calm, but his heart was disturbed.It seems that the people behind shopkeeper Fu are very powerful, far beyond his expectations.
The caravan did not follow, Zhong Qingran thought that he would inform Second Uncle where they were staying later, so as not to worry him.He thought about it, this place is no different than Pingyang County, there are too many capable people in it, if Dianbai and Minglei were shot down with a bow, the result would be too cruel, not what he wanted.
Zhong Qingran didn't hesitate much, so he hung a thin copper ring with good luck on the claws of the two little things, so that he felt more at ease.
Seeing several family members of the patients looking at him with pleading eyes and pinning all their hopes on him, Zhong Qingran was worried, this was already his limit.He carefully examined the pulse of several patients, but he could not determine what the disease was.It looks like dysentery, but it turns out that it is not. Otherwise, the previous soup should be more effective than this.
In addition to this normal method, Zhong Qingran also used the ability of Fu Yunzhu, but this time the effect was not so good, the pointer was not facing the many prescriptions he provided, and obviously the most suitable medical prescription was not right for the symptom.
The medicine should not be taken indiscriminately, Zhong Qingran thought about it, and prescribed this medicine selected through the Fortune Pearl. The dosage is not too large, even if it is not very suitable, it can minimize the side effects on the body.

Zhong Qingran is lucky, Fu Yunzhu can greatly reduce the development process for him, otherwise, with his ability, it will be impossible in a short time.

"Well, even the symptoms of the first two people who got sick are getting better, and the others are getting better results. It must not take long before the epidemic can be cured." Jian Mingyu smiled from the corner of his eyes and reached his eyes.
"That's good. We have been delayed in Banshan Village for several days. If we can't go back on time, my family will be worried."
Things are not as optimistic as Zhong Qingran thought, everyone is afraid of death, especially those in the upper class who are used to enjoying life, they are even more afraid of their lives.
The area around Yuzhou City was blocked shortly after the outbreak.There are a large number of officers and soldiers guarding all the roads, nearby capable doctors are urgently recruited, and medicinal materials are continuously sent to Yuzhou City, but even so, the epidemic cannot be curbed. Later, even the imperial physicians participated, but the epidemic is still ongoing. The affected area is raging, and even has a tendency to spread to the surrounding areas.
The officials of the nearby prefectures and counties were in a hurry. Under the rule of Yuzhou City, people died every day, and the number was not small. This was a great devastation for officials of these neighboring counties.The common people can think of ways to run to farther places, but they can't. Didn't anyone with a little connection run away with their families?
Once the wealthy households left, the store business dropped by more than one notch, and the commercial tax paid naturally decreased, which had a great impact on the performance of officials.That's all, the most important point is that their lives are threatened, and they can't leave their posts without authorization, which makes them very tormented.
"Report, my lord, someone is asking to see you outside, this is his pass token."
Qi Zhizhou took a look, his expression changed drastically, and he said excitedly: "Quick, please come in."
"My lord, please."
Xing Wu was respectfully led into the prefectural office by the yamen, and Qi Zhizhou hurriedly got up to greet him: "Master Lin, please sit down, the epidemic is serious here, I don't know why Master Lin took the risk to come here?"
Xing Wuneng was the person in charge of external affairs when Qiu Shaoan went out, and his ability to communicate with people was extraordinary, unlike other brothers who kept a straight face all day long, took out a pack of medicine and two prescriptions from his arms, and put them on the table Come on, with a slight smile, explaining the purpose of coming: "Master Qi, this is a medicine for this epidemic. After testing, it is very effective. The prescription is here, please arrange it immediately, Mr. Qi."
"Really?" Qi Zhizhou stood up excitedly, disregarding etiquette, and even spoke with a trill.
"Ah."
"I'll take care of it right away." Everyone in Qi Zhizhou came to the door, and then remembered that Mr. Liu hadn't made any arrangements, so he hurriedly ordered the Yamen to arrange it.
Qi Zhizhou was lucky. Many officials in the prefectural government were infected with the epidemic. He, the highest-ranking official in Yuzhou City, had nothing to do.But at this time, there are more official duties than before, and he can't handle the official duties alone. Besides, he has to appease the people living in the city. For the past few days, he can be said to be exhausted and worried.
The arrival of Mr. Lin just solved his urgent need. Qi Zhizhou swept away his gloomy and gloomy expression, and became full of vigor and energy.
Although the doctors in Yuzhou City failed to solve the epidemic, the prevention and control effect was still there. There was not a single corpse in the city, and the patients infected with the epidemic were gathered together to avoid secondary infection.
"Medical officer Bai, grab the medicine according to this prescription, and distribute it to the patient immediately. This package is a finished medicine, you can take a look first." Qi Zhizhou sat down and refused to leave, he had to see the effect with his own eyes.
Bai Zhongnian is more than confused, he is a famous imperial doctor, he can be sent to such a dangerous place where the epidemic broke out, either he is favored by his superiors, or he is an outcast by his colleagues, Bai Zhong belongs to the latter.It's just that this doesn't mean that his medical skills are not good. As a leader in the field of medical skills, he should have a little bit of arrogance.
Soon, Bai Zhong went through the prescription, the more he looked at it, the more puzzled he became, and he just slapped the table when he saw the back: "Who wrote this prescription, I don't understand it at all."
The other doctors also gathered around after hearing the movement. After reading it, most of them reacted with Bai Zhong, only a few frowned and thought about it, but they couldn't figure out the medication rules of this prescription.
"Master Qi, which doctor prescribed this prescription? Are you not afraid of causing problems if you take such random medicines?"
"Yeah, I've lived to this age, and it's really unheard of. I've learned a lot today. If this prescription works, wouldn't my medical skills in this life be in vain?"
"Yeah, several medicines are contradictory, and the medicines are also strong, so it doesn't look like a good prescription."
……
Qi Zhizhou was only concerned about joy just now, he hasn't read the prescription yet, he has dabbled in medical skills a little bit, so he brought it up and took a look at it with trepidation, but with his superficial knowledge, he couldn't figure it out even if he looked at it vertically Right, I just know that as one of the doctors said, there are indeed several medicines that conflict with each other.
Just thinking about the identity of the person who came, Qi Zhizhou's determination, which had just wavered, immediately became firm. The master behind it would not make fun of this matter. If this is the case, wouldn't he give his brother a ready-made handle?How could the Lord be so stupid.
Thinking of Master Lin's explanation, Qi Zhizhou motioned for silence: "Stop arguing, decoct this pack of medicine first, find a patient who hasn't coughed up blood and take it, and you can see if it works."
"Master Qi, how can medicine be used indiscriminately?"
"Do you have a way to cure this epidemic?"
The doctors at the scene were dumbfounded for a moment when they were asked. Many people blushed and wanted to argue a few words, but they didn't know what to say.
"That can't ignore life."
"Sooner or later, you're going to die. Why don't you give it a try? The person who brought the medicine is Mr. Lin. He can't use this to deceive people. Don't worry." Qi Zhizhou felt that it was a waste of time to entangle himself in this matter, so he simply used his official position to suppress others. , called the doctor boy and gave orders directly.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hospital was quite awkward, but Qi Zhizhou didn't care.After the flood, the population of Yuzhou City had already decreased a lot, but then the epidemic broke out. It has been more than half a month now, and it has not been resolved. Yuzhou City can be said to be seriously injured.If it continues like this, it will become an empty city just around the corner.
Qi Zhizhou didn't want to see this kind of situation. Someone came up with a plan. No matter whether it was correct or not, he had to try it, otherwise he would not be able to pass this hurdle. Even if he didn't die of illness, he would be dealt with by today.Anyway, the result can't be worse, why not give it a try?
The process of decocting the medicine was not short. Qi Zhizhou used to be patient, but now he was suffering so much that his days felt like years.But no matter how anxious you are, isn't there all necessary procedures?
Time passed by every minute and every second, no one in the hospital room spoke, and it was so quiet that it made people worry.
"Lord Qi, the medicine is ready." The crisp voice of the medical boy broke the silence of the room, and everyone present seemed to come alive again.
Seeing that Qi Zhizhou also wanted to follow, all the doctors urged: "Master Qi, the state government still has you in charge, you can't put yourself in danger."
Qi Zhizhou thought about it for a while, then withdrew his step forward: "That's okay, I'll wait here, and let me know as soon as there is news."
Soon, all the doctors who could leave left, and the infirmary suddenly became much deserted.
After about two hours, someone came back to report: "Master Qi, the medicine is really effective! The symptoms of the patients who tried the medicine have been relieved."
"Really?" Qi Zhizhou stood up suddenly, because he was too excited, he didn't even notice that the chair was brought down.
"Ah."
"Let's go and have a look."
In the separated residential houses, there are several patients in each room, and each of them looks numb. As the days go by, they have obviously lost their fighting spirit and have no hope for life. After staying in such a place for a long time, there is no hope. Illness can also cause illness.In addition, this epidemic caused vomiting and diarrhea in the early stage, hemoptysis in the later stage, and the smell was very strong. The environment is not much better. If the patient lives in such a place, the condition will only get worse.
Qi Zhizhou frowned, resisting it so as not to attack.
"Is this the drug tester?"
"Yes."
"How is the situation now?"
"Much better, significantly fewer seizures."
"Then quickly send someone to decoct the medicine. The medicinal materials in the hospital will be used first, and I will raise the rest."
Qi Zhizhou didn't stay in this place much, there are many official duties in the yamen, it's not easy for him to spare a few hours, if he delays any more, he might have to work overnight today and tomorrow, his body probably won't be able to bear it.
A few days later, Yuzhou City.
"Hey, I'm a step late." A middle-aged scribe who looked like a traveling doctor had a strange look in his eyes, carefully looked at the medicine bag in his hand, and compared it with the prescription he had prescribed. Except for the deviation, everything else is the same. He murmured, "It seems to be better than my prescription. Let someone try it first to see if my guess is correct. I don't know which famous doctor it came from. There must be a while."
After researching the new prescription, Zhong Qingran had nothing to do, so he simply rested.He spent a lot of mental energy these days, and he just took advantage of this time to take good care of his body.
Since the last rainstorm, there has been no rain near Banshan Village, and every day is sunny and cloudless.
Dianbai and Minglei had a great time playing on the mountain, and every time they rushed home before nightfall, most of the time they brought back some spoils.Sometimes it's a half-grown pheasant, sometimes it's a snake, and a few times it's even a mouse.After being told by Zhong Qingran several times, they stopped sending their messy prey home.
Jian Mingyu watched the two young eagles dislike Zhong Qingran while giving him their prey regardless of past suspicions. He really didn't know what to say about them. He shook his head and continued to work on the task at hand.I thought to myself that fortunately Hewan Village is far away from here, so there was no disaster, otherwise, I don't know what the situation will be.
Zhong Qingran looked at the Fortune Pearl, the fortune was slowly rising, the corners of his mouth were wide open, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.It is not in vain for him to study new prescriptions, these are the rewards he deserves.
You know, in order to develop this recipe, Zhong Qingran almost spent all his luck. If he didn't earn his money back, it might not be so easy for him to save someone in the next time something like this happens.
Over the past year, Zhong Qingran has made a lot of money by cooperating with shopkeeper Fu. How could he have thought that his fortune would be basically exhausted after only two shots. If there is no compensation, his trip this time would be meaningless. It may be necessary to use the ability of the Fortune Orb, but without the support of Fortune, he can't guarantee whether he has the ability to help in the hierarchical boundary of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Caravan assembly point.
"Finally, we can leave this broken place."
"Yeah, I'm a vegetarian every day, and my face turns green."
"There's nothing to complain about. If we weren't lucky, there happened to be a person with medical skills in the convoy. I'm afraid we might lose our lives. I heard that many people died of the epidemic outside, plus the flood, Almost every household has white banners floating, and just listening to it can infiltrate people.”
"What you said makes sense, but I still want to eat meat."
"What a foodie." The person who spoke obviously had nothing to do with this person.
The convoy moved forward slowly, and the villagers in the middle of the mountain were sent all the way before returning.
Zhong Qingran and Jian Mingyu looked at the increasingly crowded carriage, both speechless.Most of the extra things were given by the villagers, and this was because they had consumed a lot. If the carriages were not packed enough, I am afraid they would have sent more things.
Most of the villagers were solid-minded, and they took out the best things in the house and offered them with both hands to thank Zhong Qingran for saving his life.None of them were very valuable things, most of them were pickles from the mountains and the like. The problem was that the gift was a kind one, and Zhong Qingran couldn't refuse it, so each family took some, so that they could feel at ease.
As the wheels rolled forward, Zhong Qingran looked at the whiteness of the villages on both sides of the official road, and felt a little blocked.He has tried his best, if it is not for the help of Fu Yunzhu, he may not even be able to save his own life, let alone save others.
This was the case all the way, the convoy never saw the noise before, and the situation did not improve until they left the epidemic area.
This time the Shuojiang breach was relatively large, not only Yuzhou, but also two prefectures and counties were affected.Because the floods in the other two prefectures and counties dissipated relatively quickly, the epidemic situation was much lighter than that in Yuzhou.
When the convoy passed by one of the counties, it was obvious that the atmosphere here was more relaxed than in Yuzhou.
Zhong Qingran originally planned to go to Yuzhou City to have a good time, but he never thought that he would encounter so many things and be delayed for so long. Now that the team's schedule is very tight, it is not easy to stay in Yuzhou City for a long time.
The closer to Shangjing, the denser the population, and the more prosperous the towns passing by.The dignified atmosphere of the team was gone, and the laughter gradually increased.The deceased is gone, and only relatives and friends will still think about it from time to time. To them, they are just strangers.
Qiu Shaoan: "Those people have been dealt with?"
"Yes."
"How many people were lost?"
Xingjiu compared a number.
Young Master Qiu moved his eyelids and motioned for him to go down.Internal slander: He is really his good brother, but he is still so impatient.Soon, when his body is fully recovered, he should be able to collect the net.
"Finally arrived in Beijing!"
"It's the first time I've seen such a majestic city. Look, those guards are so mighty with silver armor and silver spears!"
"There are so many people entering the city, how long are we going to line up?"
……
Zhong Qingran lifted the corner of the curtain, looked at the endless team, and felt emotional. This is the heart of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it really is not comparable to a small place like Pingyang County.In fact, Pingyang County is not bad at the county level, but when compared with Shangjing, it is obviously inferior.
Zhong Qingran didn't feel much envy. He had seen many cities in modern times, which were more prosperous than this one, so he wouldn't be fascinated by it.Turning his head to look at Jian Mingyu, the smile in Zhong Qingran's eyes was even bigger.He saw the right person, Jian Mingyu had a firm mind, and would not be easily confused by these gorgeous things, so there was no need to worry that he would keep his heart here.
At first, Zhong Qingran thought he would wait for a long time, but unexpectedly, he was led to another door to the side, where there were much fewer people, and there was only one motorcade in front of them.
Zhong Qingran blinked, his face was still calm, but his heart was disturbed.It seems that the people behind shopkeeper Fu are very powerful, far beyond his expectations.
The caravan did not follow, Zhong Qingran thought that he would inform Second Uncle where they were staying later, so as not to worry him.He thought about it, this place is no different than Pingyang County, there are too many capable people in it, if Dianbai and Minglei were shot down with a bow, the result would be too cruel, not what he wanted.
Zhong Qingran didn't hesitate much, so he hung a thin copper ring with good luck on the claws of the two little things, so that he felt more at ease.
