Literary Heroes of the Republic of China

Chapter 114 New Book "Contagion"

Inexplicably, Mu Qiong felt that Fu Yun'an was a little cute.

Especially after discovering that Fu Yun'an was wearing the Mo Cui he gave him.

He thoughtfully did not continue to ask, and said something else to bring the topic to the past, and Fu Yun'an sat down for a while and left.

After Fu Yun'an left, Mu Qiong looked at Jiang Chenhai: "After Mr. Jiang returned to China, has he been teaching English for others? Did you do nothing else?"

Hearing Mu Qiong's words, Jiang Chenhai came back to his senses, and said: "Haha, I learned art abroad, and I didn't find a suitable job for a while..." What the hell!Was that really the third young master of his family just now?San Shao really worked too hard, spending so much effort to disguise his identity!

"Art?" Mu Qiong was a little surprised. It's really rare to study abroad and study art these days!Jiang Chenhai's family is probably very rich.

Sure enough, Jiang Chenhai said: "I had been studying in a private school before going abroad, but suddenly I couldn't learn anything when I went abroad, so I went to study art."

It’s fine to spend your own money to study abroad, and you don’t even think about what to study before going abroad... If you’re not a rich man, you definitely can’t do this kind of thing.

Mu Qiong said: "For Fu Huaian to translate "Andersen's Fairy Tales", Mr. Jiang should help, right?"

"I didn't help much, I just taught English." Jiang Chenhai said.

"How is Huai'an studying?"

"He, it just comes and goes. Sometimes he wants to learn English seriously, and sometimes he doesn't."

"Is there such a thing?" Mu Qiong asked curiously.

When he asked about Fu Huai'an, he also wanted to know more about Fu Yun'an.

Although he and Fu Yun'an have known each other for a long time, Fu Yun'an doesn't talk much about family affairs, so he doesn't know much about Fu Yun'an.

Jiang Chenhai said a lot.

Jiang Chenhai was able to study art casually when he went abroad because he was the youngest son of the Jiang family.In fact, when he was sent abroad, it was because his father wanted to leave a bloodline for the Jiang family.

And this is the reason why he is staying in Shanghai now.

Therefore, Fu Yun'an's identity, his own identity, he would not tell even if he was beaten to death, but nothing else, especially these small things, it doesn't hurt to talk about it.

When he came, the third young master had confessed that Mu Qiong was his friend and wanted to make friends.

So, Mu Qiong learned that Fu Yun'an and Fu Huai'an liked his novels very much, and Fu Yun'an bought dozens of educational monthly magazines at a time and sent them home.

Mu Qiong: "..." He shouldn't have asked.

Mu Qiong suddenly remembered that Fu Yun'an's assistant, Sun Dalin, who was always very warm to him.There is probably a reason why Sun Dalin is so enthusiastic about him.

I don't know how long Fu Yun'an has liked him.

Jiang Chenhai has never taught, but he speaks English very well, and he is willing to learn.

Mu Qiong gave him the two notebooks he had used to prepare lessons for more than half a year, and after taking him to class for a few days, he was able to attend classes independently.

Therefore, Mu Qiong officially resigned on Friday of this week, preparing to leave Ping An Middle School.

Students in each class of Ping An Middle School contributed money to buy him a notebook.

The notebook is wrapped in kraft paper, and each piece of kraft paper has the signatures of all the students in the class.

Mu Qiong was very moved, and finally paid out of his own pocket to buy the "English Essays" that he wrote and published later, and all the students in the school gave a copy to each of them.

Some students in the school have already bought this book, but if they have an extra copy, they can give it away.

Mu Qiong went through the resignation procedures on Friday morning. He didn't have much sadness about parting, because he moved his things and went directly to the editorial office of the Education Monthly next to Ping An Middle School.

Next, the place where he worked every day was changed from Ping'an Middle School to the editorial office of the Education Monthly just across the wall.

Someone has taken over Mu Qiong's work, but Sheng Chaohui's job has not been taken over for a while, so he has to continue to attend classes. Seeing Mu Qiong move away, he is not without envy: "Mu Qiong, I haven't been there for several months. I went to the New World Amusement Park to play..."

"You can find someone you know to help you find out if anyone wants to be a teacher." Mu Qiong said.

"I've inquired about it a long time ago, and there really isn't one." Sheng Chaohui sighed, and said again: "Forget it, I'll be busy first, and I'll leave it to you for the Education Monthly!"

Sheng Chaohui said that the Education Monthly was handed over to Mu Qiong, but Mu Qiong didn't have much to do.

The new issue of the Educational Monthly has been launched, and many follow-up matters are the responsibility of the newspaper vendor Cai Songshan, who only needs to collect money.

Of course, he can't be in space—he needs to read the manuscript for the next issue.

Education Monthly has already called for contributions from the whole society, and has received many manuscripts. Mu Qiong needs to read them one by one.

They are now big customers of the post office, and sending letters is very cheap, but it doesn't cost much.

There are not many manuscripts now, it looks simple, but there should be more and more manuscripts in the future... But Mu Qiong is not worried.

In this issue of the Educational Monthly, he published a recruitment notice, intending to recruit two editors who specialize in reading manuscripts. He believed that many people would apply for the job.

When Mu Qiong officially resigned, the new issue of the monthly education magazine was already on the market.

The first few issues were sold well, and this issue of the educational monthly magazine sold better than before, but Mu Qiong, who was nestled in the editorial department, couldn't see all of this.

On the first day of his resignation, Mu Qiong was busy in the editorial department until two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and then he finished all the things that had been backlogged before. Then, he took out a pen and paper and began to write "Wandering".

By dinner time, he had already written [-] characters, so he put away the pen and paper, and went to Ping An Middle School for dinner.

Mrs. Yao cooked dinner.

Ever since Aunt Hong and Mrs. Yao came to the orphanage, Zhu Wanwan became more relaxed—Aunt Hong took over many jobs in the orphanage, and she did a good job. Mrs. Yao took over.

Mrs. Yao was very favored in her natal family in the early years, and she didn't have to do any heavy work, but she still learned to cook. Later, when the Yao family was not in decline, she was also the one who cooked, so her cooking skills were quite good.

With their help, and the fact that the older children in the orphanage can take care of the younger children, Zhu Wanwan finally has time to attend classes at Ping An Middle School.

She goes to Ping An Middle School to attend the fifth class every day. When she is not attending classes, she goes to the orphanage to look after the children, and at night she teaches the children in the orphanage... Every day of her life is very fulfilling.

Now, her knowledge of Chinese and English has far surpassed that of Mu Changyu.

Of course, this is also related to Mu Changyu's lack of interest in Chinese and English... Mu Changyu is very serious about studying, but Mu Qiong found that she prefers science to liberal arts.

Mu Qiong would not interfere with Mu Changyu. When he discovered this, he bought some books on physics and chemistry, so that Mu Changyu could read them whenever he wanted.

After dinner at Ping'an Middle School, Zhu Wanwan and Mu Changyu both went to the orphanage, while Mu Qiong returned to the editorial office to continue writing.

The editorial office of the Education Monthly was connected to electricity and installed electric lights, but the orphanage was not connected to electricity. For Mu Qiong, it was more comfortable to stay at the editorial office.

That night, Mu Qiong did not write "I am in a hundred years", but took out the manuscript paper, and then wrote the word "Contagion" on the manuscript paper.

He plans to write a new book, and his writing of this new book is also related to Huo Sanshao.

A few days ago, he received a reply letter from Huo Sanshao, and in the reply letter, Huo Sanshao asked him to name the penicillin.

The name penicillin is too vivid, so it must not be used. Once it is used, maybe people will know what it is made of penicillin as soon as it is released. In this case, it is necessary to have a different name.

In "I'm in a Hundred Years Later", he once called antibiotics "xilin", but this name can be used.

Mu Qiong was not good at naming names, so he immediately decided to use this name, but he didn't write back to Huo Sanshao right away.

He and Huo Sanshao both live in Shanghai, and within three or four days, one can be sent and received. This frequency is a bit too high. The third young master communicated frequently, so it dragged on for a few days.

And wait until now...

Mu Qiong intends to write a novel as a reply.

By the way, I also use novels to help publicize the drug Xilin.

Of course, he would want to write a novel, but there is actually another reason... He intends to finish the book "I'm in a Hundred Years Later", or he can't say it's finished, just stop for a while.

This book was written part by part, and it is finished now, and if necessary in the future, it can be continued.

As for why he did this... He wrote this article at the beginning to give hope to people at this time, and to write some modern things to inspire people at this time.

For the former, he has written nearly 20 words, which is almost the same, and he has written a lot of the latter.

Of course, what he wrote is not comprehensive, but this is also something that can't be helped.

He couldn't write any more.

Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about history, which cannot be easily moved.

The protagonist Zhang Xing definitely wants to explore history, and readers of this novel now also want to know history, but he doesn't want to make up a hundred years of history, and he can't write real ones.

Today, the October Revolution in Russia has not yet happened, and our party has not yet been established. In this case, if he writes something, if he does not handle it well, it is very likely that the future will run wildly in an unknown direction, and even some people will be harmed.

A few days ago, he wrote two more issues of "I'm in a Hundred Years Later", and then temporarily ended this story, and decided to write something else.

And this "Contagion" is what he intends to write.

Now that he has resigned, he just has time to write slowly.

The background of the book "Contagion" is the same as "I am in a hundred years", it is placed in the 21st century and in modern times.It's just that the location is not in China, but in Japan.

Mu Qiong's book is still written in science fiction, at least for people at this time, it is definitely science fiction.

This story is written about a terrible bacteria that is rampant in human society.

And the origin of this terrible bacteria can be traced back to a hundred years ago, when Japan tried to use bacteria to invade China.

At that time, they arrested many Chinese people, conducted human experiments, performed vivisection, did all kinds of inhumane things, and even put various bacteria into China...

The laboratories built in China at that time were almost paved with the bones of Chinese people, and the bacteria were released and harmed countless people.

Fortunately, they failed.

In the end, the Japanese were driven out of China. When they left, they took away various experimental instruments and some of the cultured bacteria.

But these things were lost during the relocation, and no one knows where they went.

Until a hundred years later, a group of Japanese students came to an island and accidentally found an empty laboratory.

It turned out that some "scientists" still wanted to continue the experiment, so they took away the experimental equipment with the support of some military officers, hid on this island, and built a laboratory here. As a result, they accidentally cultivated a terrifying Bacteria, and finally infect the bacteria and die.

When this group of Japanese students left the island, they were also infected with the bacteria.

They go home, they sneeze, or they take a shower with their family, or they eat something with their girlfriend, and then everyone around them is infected with this bacteria.

This is where the story unfolds.

Japan launched the germ warfare during the war of aggression against China, which can be called inhumane and devoid of conscience. Among other things, using the bodies of living people to cultivate bacteria, and then draining their blood to get bacteria, this kind of thing, ordinary people just can’t do it .

Mu Qiong had read some relevant materials at the beginning, and he didn't know how angry he was at the time, but now... he can finally release his anger in the novel.

He described the situation of the people in this novel after being infected with bacteria in a particularly miserable way.

Children, the elderly, newlyweds... They were all accidentally infected. At first they could survive for more than ten days, but later their bodies would rot and die in just three or four days.

Before they died, they all had unfulfilled wishes, and this was even more bleak, and it would make people cry when they thought about it.

For example, one of the women, when she died, was most worried about her little daughter, but when she closed her eyes, her little daughter had actually shown signs of infection...

Mu Qiong believes that his novels can become popular, and by then...even if some people in a certain country want to do this kind of thing, they will be hindered.

After all, the sufferers are not necessarily the only countries they invaded, they themselves may also be unlucky...

What's more, Europe at this time is still very afraid of bacteria. After all, they have been shrouded in the shadow of the Black Death for a long time. The most severe one was even killed by the Black Death in six years. Five million lives, one-third of the total population of Europe!

You know, the number of people who died because of World War II only accounted for 5.00% of the total population.

The plague is so terrible, if Japan still wants to use this method to harm people, it will definitely be resisted by the whole world.

Mu Qiong wrote this novel heartily.

In reality, of course, such bacteria do not exist.The bacteria used by the Japanese army in bacterial warfare were also ineffective in treatment with penicillin.

Just like the plague, it is usually treated with streptomycin and chloramphenicol, which can only be cured in the early stage. In the later stage, serum is needed. As for prevention, the vaccine must be more effective.

But this is writing a novel... In his novels, bacteria can be extremely scary, and "Xilin" can naturally be extremely miraculous.

Of course, Xilin will appear at the end. At the beginning of the novel, bacteria are raging, and a person dies quickly...

This kind of novel is actually quite common in modern times, not to mention novels, there are countless similar movies, and zombie movies can actually be classified as one of them.

But in this era, this kind of novel is still rare, and in China, Mu Qiong has never seen it.

Not to mention that it was written a hundred years later!

As a modern person, as a person who has seen many movies and novels of this kind, Mu Qiong can write them so realistically that it makes people get goosebumps...

People who read this book are afraid that they will be horrified.

Mu Qiong thought, when this book is written, it must be translated into other languages ​​by someone, so as to find a way to sell more.

That night, Mu Qiong wrote a total of seven or eight pieces of paper. Some of these papers were the beginning of the article, but the rest were mostly outlines, plot arrangements and the like.

He planned to write this novel carefully in the next few days, and send it to Huo Sanshao after finishing the first [-] words.

He should be able to write about 15 words for this novel, or maybe a little more. The protagonist of the novel is a Chinese doctor who later developed the vaccine and "Xilin".

After this terrible plague broke out, he came to Japan, and then saw the ravages of the virus...

It was getting late, Mu Qiong packed up his things, and planned to go to the orphanage to find Zhu Wanwan and Mu Changyu, but as soon as he came out of the editorial office of Education Monthly, he saw Fu Yun'an.

After asking Fu Yun'an why he didn't talk to Jiang Chenhai that day, Fu Yun'an felt a little embarrassed, and didn't come to him for two days, and didn't meet him by chance in the morning.

But in the past two days, when he went out in the morning, he would see Fu Yun'an who was as if nothing had happened.

"I didn't come to the hospital to have a look today, I only have time now... I bought some food on the way, do you want to try it?" Fu Yun'an asked.

It's really a bad idea to find this reason... It's late at night, and the hospital has already shut down. What's so good about it?

But Mu Qiong didn't expose it, and said: "Okay."

"What do you want to eat?" Fu Yun'an said lightly.

He stood in the night, Mu Qiong couldn't see his face clearly, but somehow felt that his smile should be pretty.
