Ba Niang cried when she saw Mrs. Cheng on the bed. Cheng Wenying held Su You's hand like a child, with snot and tears on his face and beard: "Xiao You is back, everyone has a backbone... Li Yuan yesterday

When the Taoist priest came, he drove us all away, saying that the epidemic was going to infect people..."

Su You consoled her: "Uncle-in-law, there is no need to be too nervous. My sister-in-law's condition has been relieved. Even if she is so serious, Degong can bring her back. I think we have found a way to cure the epidemic."

"As long as we wear masks, wash hands frequently, keep the room clean, and eliminate pathogens, it won't be a big deal. How is the situation in Meishan City, Lingjing, etc. these days?"

Cheng Wenying sighed: "What a tragedy! Now the Arctic Hospital has set up a hospital. If an epidemic is discovered, they will be sent there for treatment. Everyone stays at home and is not allowed to travel around. Martial law has been implemented in Meishan City, and there are soldiers patrolling the streets.

"

"Every township has set up fences to cut off traffic and avoid cross-contamination. That's about it."

"The best situation is in Kelongli. No one is sick there. Taoist priest Yuande saw the borneol you sent yesterday and said that it is probably because there is a lot of borneol camphor in Kelongli. Alas, poor my daughter...

How many good days have passed since then..."

Su You said to Cheng Wenying: "Uncle-in-law, my sister-in-law will ask you to take care of me first. I will go to the state capital first."

Cheng Wenying stood up and said, "Let's go together. This is a big deal. Weier, I'll leave this to you, okay?"

Shi Wei nodded: "Well, I will take care of my sister-in-law, don't worry."

When the two of them went out, the street was completely silent, which was completely different from the bustling scene before.

White flags were hung up in many houses, and family members cried and burned paper at the door of the house.

When they arrived at the state capital, the servants guarding the government office were as listless as if they were mourning for their concubines. When they saw Cheng Wenying coming, they did not question them and bowed to let them in.

I heard the voice of Yuan Degong in the palace saying: "Emergency epidemic is a kind of febrile disease. According to the transmission of Wei Qi Ying Xue, febrile diseases often invade the Wei element at the beginning, and then spread into the Qi element.

If the evil is not understood, it will spread into the camp. If it is not understood, it will penetrate into the blood. If it penetrates into the blood of the camp, it will be difficult to save the person."

"Based on the transmission of the three burners, febrile diseases usually start in the upper burner, lungs and guard, and then spread to the middle burner yangming or reverse to the pericardium, and in the later stages, they damage the lower burner liver and kidney yin."

"After a few days of observation, this epidemic has an acute onset, rapid changes, and many syndromes. In addition to the inevitable fever, most of the fever is relatively high, accompanied by upset, thirst, yellow and red urine, red tongue, rapid pulse, etc.

Syndrome. Common symptoms include macules, vomiting, blood in the stool, convulsions, coma, etc."

Seeing Su You and Cheng Wenying come in, Yuan Degong said: "Yesterday, the Su family's wife was in danger. The old doctor used the most precious pill in the palace to treat the symptoms. Now the patients in the Arctic Hospital who are seriously ill can be saved."

Members of the Jiang Qing family are also present, but now is not the time to reminisce about old times, they just hold hands with each other as a greeting.

Zhizhou said: "This epidemic is all thanks to the help of the Jade Bureau. I would like to thank the Taoist Master."

Yuan Degong said: "It's useless to thank me. If you want to thank me, you have to thank Xiaoyou."

"Zhibao Dan mainly treats phlegm-heat internal pericardial syndrome. It is useful for Mrs. Cheng, but to treat warm-heat syndrome, another prescription, Zixue San, is needed."

"Both parties are from the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau. When the old Taoist was in Beijing in his early years, he was able to learn about it. This is also the benevolence of the past."

"But the medicinal materials used by both parties are really valuable. If Jiang Qing hadn't donated the money, they wouldn't have been able to match it."

After saying that, he handed over a few prescriptions.

While reading the prescription, Zhizhou listened to Yuan Degong's explanation: "The prescription of Zixue Powder is what is most needed during this epidemic. During the development of the warm-heat disease, the heat evil is blazing, invading the pericardium and damaging body fluids.

Induces liver wind."

"Among them, excessive heat evil is the primary cause."

"In the prescription, gypsum, talc, and cold water stone clear away heat and purge fire; antelope horn cools the liver and calms wind; rhinoceros horn clears the heart, cools blood, and detoxifies; cohosh, scrophulariaceae, and licorice clear heat and detoxify; saltpeter and saltpeter clear away heat and dissipate stagnation; musk awakens the mind and awakens the mind; wood

Incense, cloves, and agarwood are used to promote ventilation and help open the mind; cinnabar, magnets, and gold foil are used to soothe the mind."

"What is needed is three pounds of gypsum, three pounds of cold water stone, three pounds of talc, three pounds of magnet, five ounces of black rhinoceros, five ounces of antelope horns, five ounces of agarwood, five ounces of agarwood, one pound of scrophulariaceae, and one pound of cohosh.

, eight taels of burnt licorice, one tael of cloves, ten jins of Glauber's salt, four liters of saltpeter, five cents of musk, three taels of cinnabar, and...one hundred taels of gold."

Zhizhou felt a little panicked: "This... this is too precious. Let's look at other recipes..."

After reading it, I was even more speechless. The treasure pill contained amber and tortoise shell; the Angong Niuhuang Pill contained pearls and musk, and it was even more expensive!

Yuan Degong said: "There is another thing. Some of the medicinal properties of Zixue Powder are too active and will deteriorate and change color when exposed to copper and iron. If you want to make Zixue Powder that is pure purple, you have to use a gold shovel and a silver pot.

."

Seeing Zhizhou wanting to cry, Su You cupped his hands and said: "Prefect, don't worry about these things. Money is an external thing, and Jiang Qing can take care of it. The focus now is to dissipate the epidemic. In addition to treatment, we also need to start with prevention. Treatment lies in

Before it happens."

Zhizhou said to Yuan Degong: "What Mingrun said makes sense, Taoist priest, is there any way to prevent it?"

Yuan Degong said: "There are many preventive methods in the medical books of the past dynasties, but most of them are false. However, this time the epidemic did not occur in three places, but it gave some tips to the wise."

"The first one is Kelongli. I just found out yesterday that borneol camphor is widely planted there. This thing should have the effect of clearing the miasma. But now it can't help."

"There are two more places, namely Tudimiao Primary School and Meishan Academy!"

Everyone was surprised, what is the reason? Scholars are so great? Even the God of Plague dare not offend him?

Yuan Degong said: "It stands to reason that Tutu Temple Primary School is close to the pier and there are people coming and going. It should be a severely affected area, but nothing happened. This matter has attracted the attention of Jade Bureau Guan."

"After asking around, I found out that Kelongli Primary School and Meishan Academy clean the house, wash the bedding, and smoke the house with medicinal herbs every month."

"Their drinking water must be boiled before drinking; children are required to wash their hands with borneol soap before eating and after using the toilet; the bowls, chopsticks and plates used for eating must be boiled in boiling water."

"Lime is regularly poured into ditches, cesspools, and playgrounds. The veteran believes that these methods can keep the primary school district clean and tidy, and are also effective measures to curb the epidemic."

Zhizhou gave up to Su You: "Mingrun, you initiated Tutu Temple Primary School, and Jiang Qingyu built Meishan Academy. Normally, I care more about my studies, but I don't pay attention to these things. Does what the Taoist priest said really matter?"

Su You said: "Well, I really don't know about this. In fact, this is because I have some mysophobia myself, and the children I brought up at the beginning also developed the habit with me."

"Since I started school, I have had less control over the affairs of Tutumiao Primary School. However, the tradition there is that the children are independent and lead the younger ones. Therefore, I am puzzled as to how these measures have become a system."

"But it makes sense when you think about it. There are far fewer mosquitoes and rats in Tutu Temple than in other places."

"As for the academy, well, I can say that it was because Longshan was greedy that the canteen attracted rats, and then he got tough and dealt with it just like the elementary school?"

Shi Dongxiu put his hand on his forehead: "Xiaoyou, don't make trouble! But Taoist priest, if the environment is clean and the food is tidy, people will get less sick. This should be normal, right?"

Yuan Degong said: "That's right. Therefore, the old Taoist suggested that the method of Tudi Temple Primary School should be expanded to include cleaning the ditches along the street and spreading lime. Each house should also be sprayed with medicine and smoked. If there are still those who cannot be cured, they should be cremated immediately. Add

With the previous isolation and other measures, that's basically all we can do in terms of personnel and resources."

Zhizhou took off the black gauze and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand: "Fortunately, Sichuan is a small country with a large population. Cremation is popular among ordinary people, and the government has repeatedly banned it before. Everyone is not against the act of burning corpses. That's it.

Let’s handle it…”

Su You cupped his hands and said: "Gong De, there is another way. Is it possible to prepare a medicinal soup for the common people to drink first, to treat the sick and prevent the non-disease? I know that it is the same thing for barbarians, it is cheap and easy to use."

Yuan Degong was surprised and said: "What is it? The Panax notoginseng you brought from Dali last time is a holy medicine for healing."

Su You said: "When I was in the Erlin Department, if someone had a fever, sore throat, spots due to warm poison, or a sore throat, the great witch would use isatis root or indigo root to boil water for them to drink, and it would basically be effective."
