Returning to this world from Interstellar this time, Chu Xiang has already had a more objective and overall judgment on this world. Before he came, although there was turmoil here, it was only a step away from the qualitative change of civilization. Traditional science and technology are blooming everywhere. People who rebel against the old aristocrats are silent, but they are not weak. Artillery is already a standing force in the city defense system, not to mention that metaphysics - astrology is popular among the people. Although Chu Xiang does not understand its operating principle, he has never Judging from some of Qu Lingxin's judgments, it is not pure superstition.

Therefore, the level of health and epidemic prevention here and the level of health knowledge of ordinary people are actually better than Chu Xiang's initial estimate.

"No matter what, the folk officials have no reason to let the rat plague run rampant. It can't be spontaneous." Chu Xiang is sure, "The doctors are aware of the plague. To curb the plague of rats in the field, Gu Linzhi and his group of contributors have also learned to create special editions of health and medicine columns in the past year. I know a few children from the military medical department help them write articles every day. Everyone in the local area has recognized short-haired rats for a long time. It’s a harm, all the ones that should be beaten are gone, and this kind of animal is probably an alien species.”

It was not Chu Xiang who came to this conclusion. The old doctor, surnamed Xu, was originally a court medical officer in the capital of the Eastern Tang Dynasty. Elder Xu still chose to resign and return to his hometown - he couldn't understand Lan Jue asking women to practice medicine.

"Chi Yuan Camp?" Old Xu would say every time he was drunk, "Cut...women can only be military prostitutes."

But his medical skills are really good. When he left, Lan Jue was a pity for a while. He was the first old medical officer in Eastern Tang to seriously put forward the theory of epidemic prevention. He even handled several outbreaks for Jing Ronghan. When the epidemic came up, the old man also acted vigorously when he was young. When the epidemic broke out, he said that the quarantine immediately dispatched troops to suppress it, and successfully prevented the outbreak of the epidemic several times. This made the practice of isolation and treatment of the plague a basic common sense, and it has been widely used in various countries. recognized.

The old man asked that he could stay, but Chi Yuan had to be disbanded. Lan Jue refused without saying a word. The old medical officer who was very self-confident was very surprised at that time.

It was Chu Xiang who comforted Lan Jue: "Academic level does not represent the level of character. There are some people who are talented but pedantic or even unbearable. You don't have to be puzzled. Instead of forcing them to stay, it is better to let the old man do what he wants. Maybe go back to his hometown. Go, and teach a few heirs."

Regardless of the obstruction of the students, Mr. Xu ran to the field himself. He impatiently sent a few students who tried to help him back to the hospital to monitor the patients.

"Go!" The old man seemed to be chasing flies, "I watched them carefully, and those who had been bitten by mice but had no symptoms, I also watched them carefully, and wrote down their symptoms and the time of onset... ...Also, as I said last time, the isolation suit must be worn before entering the patient's room, if anyone feels hot and takes it off secretly, watch me feed you to the mice!"

"Wow... Teacher, you rushed in by yourself just now..." a student muttered, "You are old enough, but you can't stand the toss. Before you talk about us, you should lead by example!"

The old man was so angry that his neck was red, and he kicked the student into the river.

"... Gululu..." Bubbles appeared in the water, and after a while the student floated up holding a struggling fish, "Teacher, what do you think this is?"

There are many small rivers in the country of Tang. The larger rivers protrude out like branches and twist closely. Many small rivers are the decomposition of two villages and towns. One side belongs to you and the other side belongs to me.Areas with too dense rivers are not very suitable for large-scale planting of crops. Thanks to the business road opened by Gu Linyi, the fishery industry has flourished here again. In addition to large-scale farms, many villagers go down the river to catch seasonal fresh food. Fish and shrimp are available. It can be sold at a good price in the market.

"Yo, this fish is delicious!"

The fishermen working in the river opened their nets and pointed to the big fish in the hands of the students excitedly: "We usually call it white paste fish, the meat, oh, it's fresh and tender, it tastes good when cooked in soup, but it's delicious when boiled." You can’t eat meat in the soup. Once cooked, it will be completely melted. The soup is milky white and fragrant. If you want to eat meat, you have to eat it raw, slice it into pieces, and put it in ice cubes Come on, dip it in the sauce, and have a bowl of homemade wine, hey, it’s delicious! But, you can put the fish back, they are going upstream, they are here to give birth, wait in two months They are eaten after they are born, otherwise what will they eat next year?"

"You're still protecting the cub!"

"We rely on water to drink water. If we don't protect ourselves, we will eat all of it?" The fisherman showed his white teeth and smiled brightly.

His companion exposed him: "Listen to this nonsense, who cares about this before? Didn't they all rely on listening to the teacher in the village school reading newspapers? That's what our national teacher said, 'Protect the ecology, eat enough every year, be greedy for a while, sit and eat the mountains and nothing '! You have the nerve to talk about others today, who couldn't resist eating one yesterday?"

The fisherman laughed: "Just one, just one!"

After hearing the words, the students didn't really want to put the fish back. They followed the teacher back from the capital city to the countryside. Naturally, the cost of food and clothing was not as good as that in the royal palace. Now after hearing the fisherman's description, they were very greedy. Mr. Xu He glared at the student, but didn't stop him from secretly taking the fish away.

In the evening, Mr. Xu took the students back to the medical center. The students were exhausted, but the old man was uncharacteristically energetic and dignified.

"This year is not normal. In our country of Tang... No matter it was the Eastern Tang or the Western Tang in the past, there were no such long-tailed, brown-yellow mice. Our local mice are generally gray, short-haired, big, and can grow long. Just like voles, the artificers squeaked loudly when they beat them, and some of them were too big, as if they had become spirits, and they had to be attacked by three or four hounds to kill them."

The students brought up the cut fish and snatched the unfinished report from the teacher: "Eat some first, and then get busy after eating, otherwise what will you do if you collapse from exhaustion?"

"If you want me to say, you care so much, no official is light!"

The old man slammed the table: "Nonsense, didn't I tell you? What is the most important thing for a doctor? Virtue! Do you think you are a qualified doctor if you can prescribe prescriptions and cook herbs? But the ability to cure diseases and save lives is not for you to dawdle, make money, or earn fame!"

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of fish. Although the old man was old, he had practiced medicine all the year round, and his eyes were very sharp. When he was about to dip the sauce, he felt that something was wrong, so he immediately knocked out the meat from the apprentices' mouths, and put the piece of meat in the mouth. Know the plate and look carefully.

"Where are the fish bones?"

The apprentice didn't know, so: "Throw...throw it."

"Pick it up!" The old man was quite stern, his eyes were shining with such a sharp light for the first time, his students were usually laughing and laughing, but now they dare not do it again, as if they were facing the chief of the court again. The medical officer hurriedly followed his order and picked up all the fishbones and bones that had been thrown away.

The old man watched carefully and even brought a lens.

"No, this is not the white paste fish that the folks often eat... This is not! This is the crystal fish of Chen Guo!"

"Crystal fish?"

The old man said: "Yes, crystal fish. The meat looks sweet and delicious. When the sun shines, it is as bright as crystal. When I was practicing medicine in my early years, I went to Chen country and asked them why they didn't eat this kind of fish... This kind of fish is the same as crystal. You can see something that can’t be eaten! Look, look! This fish is full of worms! If you eat it, the worms will grow up in the human body, crawl into the brain, and finally eat the human brain!"

The faces of the students suddenly changed, and one of them covered his mouth with a pale face: "No, I ate a piece!"

"Go, go and induce vomiting if you're worried." The old man didn't look up at him. "It's not so easy to get caught if you eat a piece. If you eat it often, you will die. Why did this kind of fish come to our east... Tang country waters?"

……

In the Palace of King Tang, Lan Jue was receiving several military aides, and Chu Xiang stood in the apse, and only walked in after hearing them finish speaking.

There is almost no need for Chu Xiang to worry about military matters. In comparison, he is good at starry sky battlefields. The biggest difference between starry sky battlefields and ancient cold weapon battlefields is... terrain issues. In the starry sky, Chu Xiang considers gravity, asteroid belts Or the influence of the stars. In ancient times, mountains, rivers, and valley passes were considered, but Lan Jue was even better.

He waited for Lan Jue to finish speaking. Lan Jue had discovered that he was listening in the morning, and now she went up to him, hugged his waist, and was about to kiss him.

Chu Xiang turned sideways and broke free from his embrace. Lan Jue was slightly taken aback, and then said, "What?"

Among the news reported from various places, Chu Xiang was holding the most inconspicuous piece of paper.

Lan Jue frowned: "Rat problem?"

"Rats are everywhere, it's not surprising, but this is not a local product of our Tang country."

Lan Jue smiled and said, "How about it? Rats have legs, and they don't need guides to run where they want to go. Maybe it's because of the good mountains and rivers in our Tang country that they all attracted them."

But Chu Xiang didn't smile, he had a very bad feeling: "Your Majesty, the main spreaders of the epidemic are these seemingly inconspicuous mice. I don't think it's a good thing. There will be large-scale migration of species. After all, the southern border There have been no major changes that shook the mountains and the ground, and I feel that..."

He paused for a moment, not sure if he was jittery or not, but he didn't dare to place all bets on the enemy's moral bottom line, so he predicted the worst and drew an inference: "The one who intends to attack our country this time, It's not just a Jin country, the army of the Jin country may be more like attacking the west, diverting the tiger away from the mountain, the real killer move—"

"Could it be..." Lan Jue was infected by Chu Xiang's solemnity, and he had a tacit understanding, and he thought directly, "I heard from my teacher and father about the deeds of some evil generals in Dongzhou. They are not called warriors, but Cheng evil generals, because of their unscrupulous, cunning and vicious methods of using soldiers, the commander of the Guyun Army of Dongzhou Liang, once used the corpses of corrupt soldiers who died in battle as weapons, and threw them into the water source of the besieged city, causing The plague, although it won, is extremely contemptible to anyone who has a bottom line. Do you mean that someone deliberately transported a large number of sick rats to the territory of our Tang country in an attempt to...create a plague?"
