In the shortest possible time, the government closely monitored the inns and clinics where the patients had lived, isolated them on the spot, and no longer allowed people to enter and leave at will.

Passengers who were on the same boat as the patient and those who were in close contact with these people were also identified and quarantined for observation.

People from outside the city also try to avoid entering the city. Vegetables, fruits and fish are purchased by the government, and then divided into equal parts, and delivered door-to-door.

In times of crisis, everyone is required to understand, and the attitude of officials should be as good as possible. It is time to serve the people and eat the people's salaries.

Xiao Yu personally regulated and arranged the epidemic prevention, and Sun Fei cooperated with his instructions to organize epidemic prevention activities.

All government gatherings and activities have been stopped, including going to court and military training. The only priority now is to control the epidemic.

Officers and soldiers patrol the streets and alleys 24 hours a day. Once people have symptoms such as fever, chills, fatigue, and skin rashes, they must report to the officers and soldiers immediately for isolation and treatment.

Foreign merchant ships are arranged according to the place of departure. Those from the north must be quarantined and observed, and those from other regions must temporarily stay on the ship until the end of the epidemic.

In just two days, Panyu City has completely entered the state of epidemic prevention. The shops are closed and no one is walking around on the streets.

Villages outside the city of Panyu have also issued notices that those who have entered the city in the past few days must be quarantined at home, and should report to Lizheng if they have symptoms.Yuri is notifying the government, and the government arranges for treatment and observation.

Because the epidemic was discovered in time and Xiao Yu paid enough attention to it, the epidemic prevention measures were very strict, and the smallpox epidemic did not spread. Only the inns, medical centers, and merchants on the same ship as patient zero had infection cases.

But this is enough to cause headaches, because there is no effective drug for smallpox, and the mortality rate is very high. Almost one in three people with severe smallpox will die.

Since the discovery of the smallpox epidemic, Xiao Yu's heart has been wrenched, because Sigui is in the isolated hospital and has close contact with patient zero. He is the most vulnerable group to be infected.

This is a respiratory infectious disease. With the current rudimentary protection method, it will only be a matter of time before he is infected.

Sigui was something he saw growing up since he was a child. He is not yet 16 years old. Meng Hong is only such a son. If something goes wrong, how can he explain it to him.

Just when he was extremely anxious, Xiao Yu slapped his head suddenly. Cowpox is the nemesis of smallpox. If a person suffers from vaccinia, he can achieve permanent immunity to smallpox. If you do it, you will be immune to smallpox.

Xiao Yu hurriedly called Pei Linzhi and explained the situation to him: "You send someone from the army to look for cows with cowpox, and then bring the sick cows back."

Pei Linzhi had never heard of the fact that vaccinia could cure smallpox, and said, "Can vaccinia really cure smallpox?"

Xiao Yu said: "It can't be cured, but it can be prevented. In our place, smallpox is the only virus that has been completely eradicated, and it is prevented by vaccination. When vaccinia is found, it will be given to those who are not sick in the clinic and inn." We're all vaccinated. We're all vaccinated, so we don't have to worry about getting smallpox anymore. And as long as we get vaccinated, we don't have to worry about smallpox for life."

Hearing this, Pei Linzhi hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go out and look for the cow right away."

"Cows with cowpox." Xiao Yu said.

"I know." Pei Linzhi immediately went out, went to the army to select a team of elite soldiers, and rode out of the city to look for cows suffering from cowpox.

Xiao Yu was a little worried that he couldn't find suitable sick cows, but this is an agricultural society, and cows are the main labor force, so there should be a lot of them. It shouldn't be difficult to find a few sick cows.

Because of the epidemic, everyone in the house was trapped at home, Xiao Yu did not go to court, but listened to Sun Fei's report on the epidemic prevention situation every day.

Everyone was free, and the happiest was Aping, because someone played with him.

A few months ago, Pei Linzhi asked someone to bring a group of teenagers from Baisha Village to Panyu.

In addition to working in the government, these children usually have to go to school for half a day. They usually don't have much time to spend with A Ping. Now that the epidemic is coming, classes are also suspended, not to mention how lively the house is.

Only Ji Hai brothers and sisters are worried, they have the closest relationship with Meng Sigui, Sigui is now in danger, how can it not be worrying.

In the morning, Sun Fei came again to report the latest progress of the epidemic to Xiao Yu. Today, two people fell ill in Ji’an Hall. One is an apprentice in charge of taking care of patients in the medical center, and the other is a doctor who sits in the clinic. They have the most contact with patients and are infected. Not surprisingly.

Patient zero had herpes all over his body, and his condition was quite serious, and the effect of taking the medicine was not obvious.

Knowing that Sigui is still safe now, Xiao Yu felt a little relieved, and only hoped that he could quickly find the cowpox and vaccinate everyone as soon as possible to reduce the number of people who got sick.

He went back from the front hall to the backyard, and just stepped through the door, he bumped into Ji Hai and Yu'er brothers and sisters: "Your Majesty, is Junior Brother (Brother Sigui) alright?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "He's fine now."

"Then can I go and see him?" Ji Hai asked, "I talk to him from a distance and wear a face mask."

Xiao Yu said: "Now the city is under martial law, you won't be able to help if you go there, don't go and make trouble for the officials."

Yu'er said: "Didn't Your Majesty tell General Pei to look for medicine? My second brother will tell Brother Sigui so that he can rest assured."

Xiao Yu said, "That's fine. Ji Hai, you go, remember, don't get too close, and tell him from a distance that we are looking for a way to save everyone, so that he doesn't worry too much." He knew that at this moment, he wanted to return How helpless and desperate he must be in his heart. He is still a child and needs a little comfort to let him know that they have not given up on him.

"Okay, I see, Your Majesty. Then I'll go now." Ji Hai said.

Yu'er said, "Wait a minute, second brother."

Yu'er ran away in a flash, and came back not long after, with a small bundle in his hand: "This is a bun made by Miss Xiaochun and I, you bring some to Brother Sigui to eat, and tell him not to worry, His Majesty and General Pei will definitely think about it." There's a way to save everyone. He'll be back soon."

Ji Hai took the burden: "Okay, I got it."

Xiao Yu looked sideways at Yu'er, this little girl already knew how to be considerate.

Yu'er noticed Xiao Yu's gaze: "What are you looking at, Your Majesty?"

Xiao Yu asked, "How old is Yu'er this year?"

Yu'er was a little puzzled, but still answered: "I'll be thirteen soon."

Xiao Yu chuckled, "You're a big girl now, and you know how to care about people." The little girl might be pregnant.

Yu'er blushed and stomped her feet: "Your Majesty, I'm still young." Turned around and ran away.

Xiao Yu looked at Yu'er's back, and remembered the first time he saw her, she was a tomboy in scanty clothes, dark and thin, and after a while, she was already a slim young girl.

Before he knew it, he had been here for so many years.Xiao Yu sighed, and asked Xiang Yang behind him: "Xiang Yang, how old are you this year?"

Xiang Yang said: "Returning to Your Majesty, I will be 25 this year."

Xiao Yu looked up at the sky with emotion: "Time really flies by so fast."

Xiang Yang didn't know why he suddenly felt this emotion.

At this time, Ah Ping rushed over: "Lang Jun!" He threw himself on him and hugged his legs.

Xiao Yu bent down and hugged A Ping: "What are you playing again? I'm sweating profusely."

A Ping put his arms around his neck: "Brothers taught me archery."

"Really? Was it shot?"

"Almost."

Xiao Yu laughed loudly: "That's amazing, I'll definitely hit it next time."

Pei Linzhi went all day and didn't come back until night.Xiao Yu was a little worried, not knowing whether things would go well or not.

He slept alone at night, and did not ask Aping to sleep with him.Xiang Yang insisted on keeping vigil for him, laying a bed on the floor in his room, and was driven away by Ji Hai. He said that Master ordered him, and he dared not disobey.

In the end it was Xiao Yu who opened his mouth and let Xiang Yang go back, the reason was that he had been seriously injured, the root of which was injured, he should not sleep on the floor, he would catch cold easily.

That night, Xiao Yu and Ji Hai talked for half the time, it was all about the past in Yazhou, and it mainly revolved around Sigui.

Ji Hai comforted him: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the younger brother is amazing. He has read a lot of medical books and saved many patients. He will definitely cure smallpox."

Xiao Yu smiled wryly, it seems that he still doesn't know how dangerous smallpox is, but he really hopes that someone can cure smallpox.

Early the next morning, Pei Linzhi came back.There were three cows who came back with him. His hair was still a little wet, and his description was a little haggard. It seemed that he had been traveling all night and hadn't slept all night.

"You came back overnight?" Xiao Yu asked in surprise.

"Yes. Your Majesty, this is the sick cow I found yesterday. I don't know which one is suffering from cowpox." Pei Linzhi said.

Xiao Yu had never seen cowpox before. He leaned over and looked at a few cows. One of them had a round belly and a little swollen udder: "Is this cow pregnant with a calf?"

"Well, the cow that is pregnant with a calf has a bit of a temper, please stay away, Your Majesty." Pei Linzhi said.

Xiao Yu squatted aside, carefully observing the cow's belly, and there were festering herpes on the udder: "This may be cowpox, I have never seen it before. Why don't you try it. Help me get some from the festering place of the cow." When the pus comes out, I will test it."

Pei Linzhi looked at him: "How?"

Xiao Yu took the dagger from Pei Linzhi's waist, pulled it out, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to cut his arm.

Ji Hai and Xiang Yang were so frightened that their hearts almost stopped: "Your Majesty!"

Pei Lin took the knife away: "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Yu said, "Inoculate with cowpox. Get the pus of the cow into my body."

Pei Linzhi looked very angry: "How can you do an experiment on yourself!"

Xiao Yu blinked: "But that's how cowpox is planted. I'll try it first. If possible, you all have to plant it."

"No! Even if we need to experiment with people, we should do it. I'll do it first." Pei Linzhi said, ready to scratch himself.

Ji Hai quickly snatched the dagger: "Master, you can't do it, let me do it, I will try."

Although Lai Feng and Xiang Yang didn't know about it, they rushed to come here. Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi must not be put in danger.

Pei Linzhi said: "Stop arguing, all of you. I can't kill anyone, so I'll come first. Just a small cut?"

Xiao Yu said: "Yes, a small hole is enough, and then apply the pus on it. Let me have a look later." In fact, he had no idea, because he wasn't sure if it was cowpox, and if it wasn't, What other illness did it cause Pei Linzhi to suffer?

Pei Rinzhi stopped and looked at him.

Xiao Yu said, "Is it just these few cows? Is there anything else?"

"There are still a few comrades who haven't come back."

Xiao Yu said: "If I wait for them to come back and take a look, I'm not sure if it's cowpox."

Pei Linzhi said: "Then wait for a while, Ji Hai, and go find some horse feed for the cows."

Xiao Yu said: "Then you guys go to have a rest first, and have lunch."

After entering the room, everyone asked what was going on, and Xiao Yu explained to everyone how to vaccinate against smallpox.

Lai Feng was dubious: "Is this really possible?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "If it's really cowpox, it's absolutely fine."

Yu'er came over to ask for instructions: "Your Majesty, you can use Chaofan, do you want to use it now?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Okay, let's go eat."

Everyone entered the dining room, sat down and waited for dinner, and listened to Pei Linzhi's story about the cattle hunt.

Yu'er and Xiaochun brought up the meal. Xiao Yu looked at the plate in front of him and couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief. The meal sharing system is also an excellent way to prevent the epidemic. Fortunately, everyone shared the meal.

Just as he was about to eat, Xiang Yang came in from the outside. He sat down on his seat and said, "Your Majesty, I have just been inoculated with cowpox according to your method. I did an experiment first. Wait until I see if it works. .” He said and rolled up the sleeve of his left arm.
