doctor knife in hand

"There are so many places, how to isolate them...the dead can be burned on the spot, but what about the living, should they be taken away, and where should they be taken?"

Song Heng looked at Lu Jin frowning and muttering something, obviously already in a tangle.

So he handed over a painting.

Lu Jin looked up at him and asked blankly, "What?"

"A map of the capital."

Hearing this, Lu Jin's eyes lit up, and he immediately opened the map.

Although this picture is not as clear as the latitude and longitude of later generations, and the proportions are true, it still clearly draws the distribution of houses and buildings.

In order for Lu Jin to see more clearly, Song Heng explained: "The most severely affected area is in this place." He pointed to a piece of densely packed houses in the northwest, "Starting from Xidaoer Hutong and Tingzizhang Street This area." Then moved his finger to some blank space on the southeast side of the disaster area, "This is the lower market, which is now requisitioned by the Jingzhao government as a place for victims of the disaster, and the row of houses behind it is all across the street. Behind the granary is Weixi Escort, your medical department."

Lu Jin's gaze followed Song Heng's slender fingers, and he bowed his head in response.

"And then here, this place is Willow Lane. Willow Lane could have been extended forever, but the house to the east has become ruins, and where we are now is at the end."

Hearing this, Lu Jin looked up to the east, and indeed he could see a ruined wall.

"The same goes for Nianzi Alley and Stone Forest, not far from Willow Alley, close to the disaster area. Ah Jin, have you noticed any patterns?"

Lu Jin said: "They are all in the most severely affected areas."

Song Heng nodded, "That's right, due to time constraints, heavy rains began on the third night after Dilong turned over. Many corpses buried under the disaster area have not been turned up, and almost all of them have rotted. According to what you said, the corpses are The most important breeding ground for germs, it is normal for the epidemic to start around the disaster area."

"But the house is connected to the house, so is it necessary to isolate such a large area?" If alleys and streets are used as isolation belts, Lu Jin gestured with his hand, "How many people have to be enclosed, at least in the adjacent alleys?" Those people at the entrance are not sick for the time being, they just need to observe for a few days, they should not be locked in."

Once it is enclosed, it is an isolated area. When he has not developed effective antibiotics, he is very easy to be infected and die, so the smaller the area, the better.

Song Heng said: "Let them move away and find another place to resettle. The place deep in the alley near the ruins is just like where we are now. It is dirty, messy, and there are many corpses. There is no need to stay. Everything , including the corpses together with the house, and even the ruins of the collapsed houses in the disaster area were also burned."

Song Heng's fingers drew a larger circle centered on the disaster area, "In this circle, everything will be razed to the ground by fire."

No matter what filth is hidden inside, how many people are rotting, how many germs are multiplying, and even the snakes, rats, insects and ants hidden underneath will be wiped out in the fire.

Lu Jin stared blankly. Although the circle is small on the map, it can be several miles in size when zoomed in, and it will be burned...

"A Jin, do you have a better solution?" Although Song Heng's face was not visible under the mask, his eyes were very calm and sharp.

Lu Jin shook his head slowly, "No."

Nothing is more thorough and safer than burning.

"However, those who are sick and can't live long before there is no medicine, can't they also be burned to death?"

"Bring them out, and let them live in the houses of the people who moved away before." Song Heng drew a smaller circle outside the circle, "This place is the real quarantine area, you doctors can do whatever you want." Do it."

Lu Jin looked at the place and nodded slowly.

Once Song Heng made a decision, he immediately took Lu Jin out of Willow Lane, and then issued a military order.

All the soldiers had no time to change their clothes, so they covered their mouths and noses and entered the alleys again, so that the people who were not infected by the doctors who had followed them before would move out of their homes immediately.

There is no room for negotiation, no matter how much you beg or curse, your ancestors have to leave even if they have been here for generations.

If you don't leave, once the infected person is sent here, those who stay will also be infected immediately. Under such a threat, they can only pack up and leave. After all, nothing is more important than life.

When this area is empty, soldiers will surround it, and ordinary people can no longer enter and exit. This is the isolation area drawn by Song Heng.

Then Lu Jin led the doctors to divide the room inside into four areas: the observation area, the lightly infected area, the moderately infected area, and the severely infected area according to the distance from the hardest hit area.

And before the patients moved in, sprinkle caustic soda water on every corner of the house, ignite the wormwood, drive away germs and mosquitoes, and clean the inside.

At the same time, heavily armed soldiers entered the deep alleys and brought out all the people inside, and those who could not leave were carried on stretchers.

It's all coercive action, and it's fast.

After entering the isolation area, there were doctors waiting to carefully check those who were brought out by the soldiers. Those who were not infected were all sent to the observation area. After seven days of observation, they were released when they did not develop any symptoms, and they were handed over to the Jingzhao Mansion for resettlement.

Those who are sick are left behind to be classified according to the severity of their illness.

As long as you don't go to the observation area, once you enter the infected area, there is no life left.

It doesn't matter if all the family members are sick, but there are also many families where only one or two are found out, and the rest are still healthy.

Why are they willing to separate?

"Master Jun, my son really just had a bad stomach. He's fine. Really, he's already healed. Let him go with me." The woman hugged her child tightly, but was pulled away by the officers and soldiers.

Behind her were two children crying, "Don't leave brother, don't leave brother..."

The woman had three children, and one of the youngest sons was found to be ill, and they had to be sent to different places.

The two older children and the woman were sent to the observation area, while her younger son was sent to the moderately infected area.

The youngest son is only five years old, how can she be willing, but she still has two children to take care of, if she stays, what will happen to the other two children.

With tears streaming down her face, she took the two children and followed an officer and soldier, leaving only the other one to watch them being sent to the moderately infected area by the soldiers.

In addition to begging, there are also stalking people.

"Do you know who his father's second uncle is? That's the commander of the imperial army. If you don't let him go, believe it or not, I won't let you go!"

The soldiers simply let her taunt and abuse, but still did not let her go, "Even the commander of the imperial army himself, if he is sick, he should stay and have to stay."

"you!"

"Whether you want to go or not, just stay with him. If you want to observe, you won't be able to go."

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, the woman looked around and saw people leaving one after another, she couldn't help becoming anxious.Seeing her expression, her man immediately panicked, "Ah Xiang, don't leave me, I will die if I stay here, I will die!"

The man went to pull her, but she avoided her, and she said: "Master Bing won't let me go, I can't help it. I'm still young, and I don't want to see Hades so early. Don't worry, I will give you a full amount of paper money every Qingming Festival." of."

After finishing speaking, he followed a soldier without looking back, no matter how begged behind him, he didn't stop walking.

Not far away, a man was forcibly pushed out, and when he tried to go in, he was stopped by officers and soldiers, and he knelt on the ground and wept loudly.

An old man was sitting on a stool, his eyes were moist, "Go, the old woman has a few years to live, and she will die when she dies. Son, you still have a chance, so live well. Sir, please take him away Bar."

The soldier next to him sighed, walked over and said to the man on the ground, "Come with me."

Of course, there are also healthy people who stay and do not leave. There are also many who would rather die together for the sake of sick children or sick lovers.

Soldiers can't drive them away, they can only let them go.

This night, scenes of life and death and life and death were staged. The diversity of human nature ranges from indifference and selfishness to kindness and dedication. Tonight, it is fully reflected.

Even the most resolute soldier couldn't help sighing when he saw it.

After midnight, all patients were sent to the isolation area.

Outside the isolation zone, near the hardest-hit area, there are lots of dead or rotting corpses, a lot of filth and filth, and all the ruins of houses where snakes, rats, insects and ants live in the dark are delineated by Song Heng on the map. The circle below will be razed to the ground by the fire immediately.

In order to prevent the smoke from being too large and to control the fire, the soldiers did not burn it all at once, but started from the periphery near the isolation area.

In the dark night, the stars in the sky are still twinkling.

But underground, people in the quarantine area watched helplessly as their former homes slowly collapsed in the fire, and all traces of their former lives disappeared.

Song Heng and Lu Jin returned to the medical office, changed their clothes, took a bath with herbs, cleaned them carefully from head to toe, and poured another bowl of soup before they were done.

After the bathroom inside, before starting their respective urgent work, Lu Jin suddenly pulled Song Heng into a room and sat down, "Song Heng, let's sort it out, what should we do next?"

With such a big movement, the news of the outbreak of the epidemic cannot be concealed, whether it is in the crowd or in the court, there will definitely be voices from various sources.

At this time, Lu Jin couldn't help but care about the current situation, which was related to whether the people in the disaster area here would be abandoned.

Song Heng saw the worry in Lu Jin's eyes, he knew what Lu Jin wanted to ask, because no one knew the severity of this matter better than him at this moment, so before Lu Jin could ask him, he said: "A Jin, you You want to save people, and you don’t want the disease to spread, but you need time to develop penicillin and even other drugs. During this period, you don’t want the emperor and courtiers to abandon these people who are sick or about to get sick, or even leave Beijing for refuge, right? ?”

Lu Jin nodded heavily, "Yes, the epidemic has just begun. In fact, there are not many people who are sick. Even if I can't develop penicillin, as long as it is controlled properly, the direct contact between normal people and them will be reduced, and the conditions for the growth and reproduction of germs will be eliminated. It can still be eliminated. After all, the weather is getting colder, and the activity of germs will be greatly reduced in the cold."

"I believe in you. I will enter the palace in a moment and ask the emperor to order to close the gates of the Sifang City to prevent everyone from entering and leaving. There will be many troubles in the court tomorrow, and I will try my best to deal with it. Jin, I can't help you to save people, I can What I do is buy you time." Song Heng said.

Lu Jin looked up at Song Heng in a daze, and suddenly reached out to touch his face, "You seem to trust me all the time, why?"

Song Heng smiled, "Everyone says that Dr. Lu is a genius doctor. Is it too long to live if you don't listen to the doctor?"

"But I, a genius doctor, often get you into trouble, and it's obviously none of your business, so I'll take care of you for you."

Song Heng thought about it for a while, then leaned into Lu Jin's ear and said, "That's because... I am a man who is a genius doctor, and I was born to solve your troubles."

The ears immediately turned red, Song Heng watched intently, and suddenly pulled him up from the chair.

Since the earthquake, both of them have been busy, running, worrying, and exhausted. They met in the crowd, and it seems that it has been several springs and autumns before such intimacy.

The two couldn't help it for a moment, hugged each other, and kissed excitedly.

In the end, it was Song Yang who gave a huff at the door before interrupting the entanglement between the two.

Song Heng touched Lu Jin's forehead with his forehead, panting and said: "Don't be afraid, do what you can to save people, I will always be by your side. Even if that time really comes, it's not your fault, it's God's will, human power can't do anything. There is only one thing, protect yourself, can you agree?"

Lu Jin said, "Yes."
