Chapter 165 Black Hand
Only by walking more roads can you see more scenery.
Magicians and scholars from the Divine Glory Continent like to travel, a city and a country, which is too small for them.
Scholars need to expand their knowledge and magicians need to enhance their strength. The best way is to go to various countries on the mainland to see a broader world.
This is particularly important for scholars.
If you don’t go abroad, you will always be a frog at the bottom of the well and can only guard the small sky at the entrance of the well.
If the mathematicians of Gaya did not come to Lorraine for a walk, they would never know that their great master of wind, Achilles, was the fastest man in the Kingdom of Gaya, could not even catch up with a turtle.
If doctors don’t go out, they will never know that diseases they think cannot be cured may have been cured in other countries.
Therefore, there was a doctor from another country who fell at Chen Luo's doorstep because of hunger and cold when traveling to the mainland. It was reasonable to teach him some medical skills because of Chen Luo's grace.
Christine looked at him and asked, "What's the name of that doctor?"
Chen Luo said without hesitation: "Hua Tuo."
"Hua Tuo..." Christine thought for a while and said, "What a strange name."
However, compared to eliminating the plague, this matter is less important.
Christine looked at Chen Luo and said, "If this plague can be calmed, I will definitely let my father reward you heavily."
Chen Luo waved his hand and said, "I am also half a doctor. It is the doctor's duty to save lives and heal the wounded."
"Save death and help the wounded, the doctor's duty..." Catherine walked in from outside and said admiringly: "If Blair can become a doctor, she must be the best doctor."
Chen Luo smiled and said nothing.
But Catherine continued to ask: "The plague cannot break out without reason. What will be the reason for this time?"
"Mosquito bites." Chen Luo said: "Some mosquitoes have pathogenic factors in their bodies that are transmitted to humans through bites. Haven't the kings discovered this condition before?"
Catherine shook her head and said, "No, I have never seen it in the royal capital for years."
When talking about this, Chen Luo was also a little surprised.
Although the impact of malaria is great, it is highly regional.
Mosquitoes carrying viruses usually live in the tropical and subtropical areas. Because of this, more than 90% of people who die from malaria every year are in Africa.
There were few malaria patients in the Kingdom of Lora before, so how could they suddenly have a large-scale outbreak?
After all, the transmission of malaria, besides mother and baby, is mosquito bites or injected blood from malaria people, and does not pass through air or droplets. There is no reason why so many patients will appear in just a few days.
Could it be that the mosquitoes in the royal capital collectively mutated in a short period of time?
This possibility is very small. Chen Luo thought about it, looked at Christine, and said, "It is necessary to check it carefully about the outbreak of this plague. I suspect that this may have been intentional..."
"You mean, someone wants to create a plague in the capital?" Christine frowned and nodded, "I will ask my father to send someone to investigate."
After Chen Luo told Catherine about the brief extraction of artemisinin, he found that it was too late and it was time for him to go back and cook for Teacher Britney and Isabella.
"If there is nothing, I'll go back first." Chen Luo looked at Catherine and said, "If there is anything, you can come to my house to find me."
Catherine said: "Class Blair, if the plague can be eliminated, you will save the entire capital."
Christine looked at him and said, "I thank you on behalf of the people of the royal capital."
Chen Luo waved his hand, said nothing, and turned around and walked out of the room.
Walking from here to outside the Medical Association, Chen Luo was surprised and experienced another baptism of his eyes.
Due to the fear brought by the plague, there were not many people on the streets of the royal capital, and even the vegetable market was closed. Chen Luo, who originally wanted to buy some vegetables, had to return empty-handed.
As soon as he walked to the door, the door suddenly opened. Isabella ran out from inside and frowned and said, "Blair, why are you running around? What if you get infected with a plague..."
Chen Luo said: "Don't worry, the plague will disappear soon."
Isabella was stunned, and then asked happily: "Will Alice be fine?"
"Alice will be cured, too." Chen Luo closed the door and said, "Be careful when you sleep these two days, don't be bitten by mosquitoes..."
...
While the doctors in the royal capital were still arguing about the control of the plague, the royal physician group had already given the causes and treatment methods for the plague.
The royal physician team is the top doctor in the Kingdom of Lora, Dr. Catherine, and is deeply trusted by the people of the royal capital.
For a moment, the king capital immediately started to kill mosquitoes. His Majesty the King personally sent dozens of water-type magicians to specifically remove sanitation on the streets of the king capital, and did not let go of a blind spot.
The nobles even asked the fire-type magician to quickly burn every corner of their home to kill the diseased mosquito larvae. In the next two days, there was no increase in malaria in the royal capital, but the fires occurred several times. Fortunately, there were water-type magicians on the streets, so they did not cause much damage.
The extraction of artemisinin was even smoother than Chen Luo expected.
Although Catherine didn't even know what alcohol and ether were, they successfully extracted an effective ingredient from the scented silk herb that had a therapeutic effect on malaria according to Chen Luo's guidance.
After taking the drug containing this ingredient, the condition of the patient has improved significantly, which also means that the plague in the royal capital has been completely suppressed.
After seeing off the last patient, Catherine closed the clinic door and looked at a white crystal in her palm.
This was extracted directly from the scented silk herb. It was a component that had a curative effect on that disease, which was more refined than the method Blair told her.
Classmate Blair didn't know that she was a wizard, and plants were the weapons of wizards. No one knew plants better and knew how to use plants better than them.
After a moment, she put away the crystal, looked at the man in the black robe in the yard, and asked, "Did you do it?"
"It's...we." The man in black robe corrected her words and said, "Although you have been in the kingdom for many years, don't forget that you are a wizard, and you are carrying the mission of a wizard."
"I'm also a doctor," said Catherine. "Please don't do this next time. It's because of your existence that wizards are considered evil."
"You are wrong." The man in black robe said coldly: "The four temples are high above. These stupid magicians are all bewitched by them. Those who do not believe in magic will be considered heresy by them. Damn heresy. No matter what you do or how many people you save, in their eyes, you are all evil..."
Catherine was silent for a moment and asked, "What is your purpose?"
The man in black robe said, "If it weren't for that Blair, the credit for eliminating the plague was ours, and we would definitely have gained the trust of the Royal Family of Lorraine."
Catherine shook her head and said, "The curable technique cannot treat this disease."
"But it won't break out," said the man in black: "As long as all the people who were sick at the beginning die, the plague will end. This can be our credit, but unfortunately it was stolen."
Catherine suddenly looked at him and said, "Don't hurt him, he is a real doctor..."
"This disease, in those southern countries, is called the sickle of the god of death. It can take off the sickle from the god of death. It is worth our win over..."
The man in black robe looked at Catherine and said, "Let me try to win him over. We need someone like this."
Catherine shook her head and said, "He is a student of Wangdu Magic Academy. I am a doctor. I have no chance to contact him at all. How can I win him over?"
