Chapter 46: It feels good to be praised
Soon, the narrow passage in Weijia Village was crowded with more than a dozen scalpers from the township officials. These scalpers were fat and strong, and were fed very strongly.
But among the dozen yellow cows, three yellow cows collapsed on the ground, not very good at spirits, lazily drooping their heads and chewing something in their mouths. A pair of dark eyes casually swept the crowd, and then they drooped without interest, leaving only a oxtail swaying left and right with dejected head.
Li Yuan walked over and squatted down, looked at the abdomen of the cow. It was indeed a cow, dark red, and several sore spots grew, all of which had pus, yellow, and very disgusting. It was indeed a cow with smallpox.
Doctor Xu also squatted down and said in surprise: "Daojun, this cow has moved here, but how can I treat it?"
As he was talking, he reached into the part where the cow was pus without any worries, pinched it, squeezed out the pus, and went to his nose to smell it, feeling a little nauseous and retching a few times.
"It's not difficult. This cow actually suffers from smallpox, but the immunity of the cow is much stronger than that of our humans. Although the smallpox virus infected is the same, the cow can already develop a certain amount of immunity after its own resistance and immunity. Therefore, smallpox is a mortal disease for humans, but rarely die for cattle..."
The cowherd who raised cattle heard this, smiled a few words and said, "Several nobles, the villain is called Wei San. My ancestors have been raising cattle since ancient times. This kind of disease caused by cows is not very rare. I remember that once a few decades ago, my father called him Kisezi's disease. The cows will be over for a few days."
"This is strange." Doctor Xu exclaimed. After all, he is a medical family, not those who are traveling, so there is never a record of this kind of illness on the body of a cow.
For all dynasties, although cattle are an important tool for farming and private massacre is strictly prohibited, it does not mean that the Central Plains dynasty lacks cows. Who cares if there are a few deaths?
"If we ulcerate somewhere in our human body, if we don't handle it carefully, we will develop pus. Remember the bacteria and viruses I mentioned? They spread through the air to contact the wound, and the human body as a shield will resist. The pus is part of the bacteria, viruses and the antigens produced by the body. After the cow resists, the pus on the cow carries the cow's antibodies and smallpox virus, but it is different from the smallpox virus before. At this time, the smallpox virus was basically eliminated, with only a small part remaining, and the pus is more antibodies against the smallpox virus." Li Yuan explained slowly.
Doctor Xu was confused when he heard this, and his hands were restlessly wearing his lower clothes. His old face covered with gullies... a little shame came to his face!
There are many nouns that I don’t understand, but... so awesome!
It is obvious that the Supreme Emperor was also the method of healing by the saint of Taiqing last night, but why is he so easy to use now and can be easily used? Could it be... is it really a difference in talent?
The god of scholars and poor scholars cannot compare, whoever compares will be sad!
"What Taoist said... Although it is reasonable, it is not a trivial matter to cure diseases. Just as Taoist said that snake venomously enters the abdomen, I also found three roosters to do experiments. But today's smallpox epidemic also requires experiments, and... it must be human!" Doctor Xu said in a serious voice.
Li Yuan nodded, without refuting. He only had a slight understanding of how to treat smallpox through his golden fingers. If no one had experimented, he would not dare to grow cowpox on people without authorization.
"The method to treat smallpox is to grow cowpox, and apply the pus from sick cows to human wounds. Do you guys dare to try it?"
He glanced at the guards who were around him, each wearing Taoist robes, but they were men who rushed on the battlefield. They were sent by Li Shimin to protect him and Taoist temples. They were all tall and strong, and they could not have been experimented with them.
The closest to Li Yuan was the lieutenant Su Meng, who commanded the five hundred guards of Taiyi Dao Palace, with swallow chins and tiger eyes, and eight-foot man. He knelt on the ground and shouted: "The Mo General is from Shanglin Village, Baili Township, Jingyang County, Guanzhong. If he dies this time, please ask Your Majesty to let the Mo General return to his hometown and have a grand funeral with someone!"
After saying that, he hit the ground with his knees and knocked a few times. Then he pulled out a sharp blade from his guard's scabbard and slashed a sharp stroke on his right arm.
Li Yuan nodded and promised, nodded to Su Meng and said, "If Captain Su successfully tests the medicine this time, no matter whether it is successful or not, I will thank you. The elders of Guanzhong and the 200,000 refugees will also remember your kindness!"
With a knife, blood gushed out from his dark arms, but Su Meng was not afraid or nervous, but instead shouted to the close guard: "Ma Lao Er, bring the good wine you have hidden, and I will also learn from Master Guan Er this time."
Li Yuan's mouth twitched a few times, and he didn't have to be so fierce in scratches. He was so shocked. He waved his hand and asked Doctor Xu to go forward to bandage the wound and test the medicine.
Ma Lao Er faced the evil face and was wearing a Taoist robe. But when he heard Su Meng's words, he was like a young wife who was angry, and he was tempted. But then, under Su Meng's glaring, he had no choice but to lift his belt and rubbed out a dark small bamboo tube, which was only three fingers thick, and handed it to Su Meng. He cursed and said, "Person Su, you can't cure me. This wine is something that is safe and has never drunk it at all when you are on duty."
"Why do you look like a sissy?" Su Meng finished drinking the wine in the bamboo tube and shook his head, not only scolding Ma Laoer, but also scolding Doctor Xu.
Xu was skilled in medical skills and was also very careful. He took out a pus from the little finger from the cow and slapped it on Su Meng's wound. Then he carefully bandaged it with a linen cloth, so that the wound was not leaking at all.
"Okay, I'll wait for the results of the experiment in a few days." Li Yuan said that he had made the best efforts for this smallpox epidemic, and he could only hope that no more people in the Tang Dynasty would die.
But when he turned around, he found hundreds of villagers surrounded him and Doctor Xu in a semi-fan-shaped arc. They had hesitation, confusion, and a little... expectation in their eyes.
Li Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he found a half-person-high ridge around him, stood on it, coughed dryly, and shouted: "Friends, do you know who I am? Do you know who you are on the dragon throne in Chang'an?"
The villagers shook their heads in confusion, and then nodded again. Who else can sit on the dragon throne? The emperor!
"Ahem! The person sitting on the dragon throne is my turtle son, and I am the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the supreme emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Do you know who asked you to move to Cuihua Mountain to divide the fields and food, which is what I mean."
When the villagers heard this, they immediately fell to the ground, like the autumn wind blowing down the wheat fields, a large area with tears in their eyes.
Wei Ziyang, who was among the villagers, knelt down and shouted: "This is Your Majesty. Your Majesty has never forgotten the people. If it weren't for Your Majesty, a certain sister-in-law might have been sold. The Supreme Emperor is our benefactor, and we will never forget it!"
"The Supreme Emperor, we will never forget our kindness!" the villagers said excitedly.
"Tsk tsk, God assists!" After walking out of the frustrated palace, Li Yuan felt the excitement in his heart for the first time. What a simple fellow villagers, he felt that he loved them so much.
It feels so good to be praised...
