An egret called "Yo Yo" and hovered above the sky. It straightened its long neck, observing the silent Twolegs in the valley. There are two people standing in the middle, looking at the sunset in Xichui. Dozens of people surrounded it like mountains holding the sun.

Alyssa opened her eyes wide and looked at the egret a few times. Leaning on her lover's shoulder, she asked in a worried whisper.

"Sholot... The plague you mentioned is so powerful. How should I deal with it?"

Xiulot stretched out his arms, hugged the delicate girl tightly, and gently stroked her for a while. Then he collected his thoughts and preached again.

"Epidemic air is different, it affects every part of the human body, and also causes different symptoms. For example, headache, fever, chills, cough, bleeding, acne... Therefore, we need to identify specific symptoms and adopt targeted measures. way."

"For ordinary epidemic qi, as long as the body is strong, the food is sufficient, and the yang energy is abundant, it is enough to resist! The human body's immune system will function to resist external invasion. , but there will be no serious illness. For example, in common epidemics, malnourished old people and women are always seriously ill and will be the first to get sick. Strong and well-fed young adults are often mildly ill, Or end up falling ill."

Hearing this, Alyssa nodded, expressing her understanding. In the villages all over the world, the diet of the young and middle-aged is always given priority, and their vitality is also the most abundant. Then, she noticed her lover's words.

"Sholot, you said that there is an 'ordinary' epidemic, so is there also a 'dangerous' epidemic?"

"Yes! Some epidemic gases are extremely poisonous and spread extremely quickly, so they are extremely dangerous. As far as I know, there are as many as nine kinds. If any one of them spreads, it can cause tens of thousands of people to die. casualties!"

Shulot paused, sorting out his thoughts. Then, he told Naxiu.

"Naxiu, take note of my next words, they are very important!"

"Follow you!"

Naxiu bowed gracefully, then picked up the pen and paper again.

"In the east of the world, far away from the sea, there are nine extremely poisonous plague gases. According to the degree of danger to the alliance, the first is typhoid fever, the second is smallpox, the third is plague, the fourth is measles, and the fifth is measles. Cholera, sixth diphtheria, seventh mumps, eighth malaria, ninth yellow fever!"

"Hmm...Your Highness, how should you write the nine kinds of plague that you mentioned?"

Naxiu memorized half of it, and raised her head in embarrassment. These diseases have not yet appeared in America, and naturally there is no corresponding description.

"Give me the pen and paper, and I'll write it myself!"

Xiulot reached out and took the pen and paper. He tried hard to remember, first wrote about typhoid fever, and then drew a small figure. The villain was clutching his stomach and having diarrhea, and the feces flowed into the river.

"Typhoid fever, the epidemic gas invades the intestinal tract, the symptoms are diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and bleeding. The mode of transmission is contact with feces and polluted water..."

Then there was another little man, covered in dots all over, lying motionless on the ground. The villain's air exhaled and flew into another neighboring villain.

"Smallpox, the plague invades the whole body. The symptoms are rashes, pus, and ulcers all over the body. The way of transmission is respiratory droplets and contact with objects used by the other party..."

Afterwards, the blackening of the limbs unique to the Black Death appeared on the new villain, and there were more mice and fleas around him.

"Plague, plague gas invades the lungs, symptoms are fever, chills, bleeding, gangrene. The mode of transmission is through rats and fleas, spreading the plague gas everywhere..."

The fourth villain also has small dots on his body.

"Measles, the plague invades the chest and abdomen, the symptoms are red flat rashes, and the mode of transmission is breathing. It is similar to smallpox, but the disease is slightly milder."

When drawing the fifth villain, Shulot paused. He didn't know much about cholera, but for the next few hundred years, cholera should have been confined to India and not spread to the Americas. After thinking for a while, he drew a little man with diarrhea and wrote roughly.

"Cholera, plague gas invades the intestinal tract, the symptom is watery diarrhea, and the mode of transmission is also that the patient's feces pollute the water source..."

Then, the sixth villain has a big neck, and the seventh has a big mouth.

"Diphtheria, as the name suggests, the plague attacks the neck, forming swelling and white patches, and spreads through breathing. Mumps, the plague invades the cheeks, forming swelling, and spreading through breathing... These two diseases are killers of children! "

Shulot took a deep breath. He pondered for a while, and then drew a small figure with a pendulum, and marked the words "hot and cold" beside it.

"Malaria, plague attacks the liver and directly damages Yihotel. The symptoms are shaking, alternating cold and heat all over the body. It is transmitted through mosquito bites."

The last villain, with red eyes and tongue, is vomiting blood.

"Yellow fever, the plague gas invades the lungs. The symptoms are fever, body pain, red tongue and red eyes. It is transmitted through mosquito bites."

Thinking of these two severe diseases, Xiulot sighed and exhorted seriously.

"Although malaria and yellow fever are at the bottom, they are not weaker than the first seven, and even more powerful! It's just that they are transmitted by mosquitoes, limited by terrain, and occur in hot and rainy lowland rainforests. Invade the Mexica Plateau where the Alliance is."

Shulot turned around and looked deeply to the south.

As long as Pandora's box is opened, African Anopheles mosquitoes and Aedes mosquitoes are introduced to the Americas, and Plasmodium and yellow fever viruses will permanently take root in the tropical rainforest. All the rainforest residents in the Americas will have to endure the test of the disease forever. This is a natural disaster that no one can change! The only luck among misfortunes is that neither Anopheles mosquitoes nor Aedes mosquitoes like the climate of the tropical plateau, so they pose little threat to the heart of the alliance.

"In the far east, there are actually nine dangerous plagues!"

Alyssa muttered to herself, with worry in her eyes. She held her lover's arm tightly, her voice anxious.

"Sholot, are there any other dangerous plagues? If these extremely poisonous plagues are introduced into the alliance, what should we do..."

"The essence of epidemic gas is tiny life. There are tens of thousands of lives, and there are naturally more than nine kinds of dangerous epidemic gas in the world! However, what we need to worry about at present is these nine types."

Xiulot smiled slightly, comforting his lover.

"Alyssa, the reason why I asked you to be in charge of the kingdom's medicine is that I want to treat the prevention of epidemics as the most important thing! The country's major event is to prevent and control the plague. You don't have to worry too much. Epidemic gas, I also have the enlightenment of the gods, the best way to deal with it!"

After finishing speaking, Shulot frowned and thought about it for a while.

According to the type of plague pathogen, these infectious diseases can be divided into two categories: bacteria and viruses. Bacterial ones include typhoid, plague, cholera, diphtheria, and malaria; viral ones are smallpox, measles, mumps, and yellow fever.

For bacterial diseases, the best way to deal with it is naturally antibiotics. It's just that in this era, due to inefficient cultivation techniques, lack of purification techniques, and insufficient observation accuracy, it is absolutely impossible to produce high-concentration antibiotics. However, a low-concentration penicillin solution can be prepared. This is not for antibacterial utility, but for cultivating bacteria from generation to generation.

In order to obtain real and effective penicillin, long-term directional screening of penicillium flora is necessary. Because Penicillium often secretes antibacterial and non-toxic penicillin and antibacterial and toxic patulin at the same time. Whether crude penicillin can be curative or fatal, I am afraid it depends entirely on luck. If the non-toxic penicillin is mixed with too high a proportion of patulin, it will be a poison that kills every minute!

Trial production of usable penicillin did not require much manpower, but it took an extremely long time. In history, after Fleming discovered penicillin, he cultivated Penicillium for about ten years. He screened from generation to generation under a microscope to obtain the combined penicillin flora, which provided a population basis for the large-scale industrial production of penicillin.

"The first task. Naxiu, arrange a few capable people to collect different types of Penicillium from rotten grains and fruits. Then, use sweeter fruit juice to cultivate Penicillium. The amount of Penicillium has accumulated to a certain level. After reaching the level, add the oil and stir. Pour out the water layer below, and then absorb it with charcoal powder. Then..."

Speaking of this, Xiulot got stuck for a while. He knew that penicillin was soluble in water and could be absorbed by charcoal powder. Next, what is used for further extraction? ... The young man was not sure, after thinking about it, he ordered vaguely.

"...Then, wash the charcoal powder with pure boiled water, acidic hot spring water, and alkaline plant ash water, and then evaporate the water to dry up the crystals, test the antibacterial properties with rotten meat, and then test with small animals Toxicity... Take the bacteria with high antibacterial property and low toxicity to keep, and cultivate again..."

"...??? Your Highness...Your Highness?"

Hearing this, Naxiu's red lips parted slightly, her eyes were completely blank, as if she had been torn...

"cough!"

Xiulot coughed lightly, thought for a while, and said again.

"When you are free, come to me alone. I will take you to do it together...I will choose a few patient and careful female workers later, and repeat these tasks repeatedly, and I will do it for ten or twenty years. !"

"Do it for ten or twenty years?"

Alyssa's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Well! This is a very slow job. It depends on the gift of the God of Destiny. It will always take ten or twenty years to have initial results. If Lozano can burn pure glass, It can be accelerated a lot.”

After Xiulot finished speaking, he smiled, with longing in his eyes. If qualified penicillin can be obtained within a few decades, that is really a gift from the goddess of fate! After a while, he withdrew his thoughts and ordered again in a deep voice.

"The second task is to sort out the alliance's various medicines, test their ability to treat common epidemics, and write them down for future use. For example, tobacco can treat colds, and black feather jade can treat body inflammation...they all It has a certain anti-epidemic and bactericidal effect! In the inheritance of the priests of the alliance, there are more than 800 kinds of medicinal materials, most of which are herbal medicines, which need detailed research and sorting."

"Follow you, Your Highness!"

Naxiu nodded solemnly. It is a complex and sensitive project to sort out all the medicines and record them in a book. Fortunately, for His Highness's sake, the priests shouldn't obstruct too much.

Central and South America is isolated from Eurasia, there are all kinds of magical plants, and herbal medicine is very prosperous. Among the thousands of plants and trees, there are always medicines that can deal with various infectious diseases respectively. It's just that systematic exploration and sorting are needed. Historically, it was also the aboriginal witch doctor in South America who first discovered that the bark of the cinchona tree can effectively treat malaria.

"Hmm... cinchona tree... we need to start offshore exploration as soon as possible, and go to the Inca!"

Shulot made a note in his heart. Then, with a serious expression, he ordered seriously.

"The third task is to write the first edition of the priest's manual for dealing with the epidemic!...The epidemic breeds in the patient and can quickly spread to others, or flow into rivers and lakes. Therefore, whenever you encounter an epidemic, you must first deal with it. The patients are treated and isolated, and their feces are strictly buried. As for other people, no matter how close or close they are, they should avoid contact with the patients, drink boiled water, and kill mosquitoes and rats that infect diseases...In case of severe epidemics, the corpses and Patient's clothing. Send out warriors, cover mouth and nose with muslin, and seal off the affected area. Even, if necessary, take decisive measures!  …”

Hearing the decisive method, Naxiu's expression froze, and she seemed to see boundless blood and fire in front of her eyes. She bowed her head and answered respectfully.

"Your Highness, your will is an ordinary life!"

Shulot nodded calmly, without any waves on his face. He will take the time to perfect the epidemic prevention manual in detail based on the common sense of future generations, and prepare the priests in advance. Then, his mood turned, and he thought of the hot springs he had enjoyed in the past two days, all of which had a certain bactericidal effect.

"The fourth task is to store a sufficient amount of sulfur. Mix plant ash and oil, and add sulfur powder to make sulfur soap...Use it to wash clothes or skin, which can effectively sterilize bacteria."

The advantage of the frequent occurrence of volcanoes in Central America is that there will be many sulfur mines, which can obtain powerful fungicides. In places where germs breed, sulfur powder is burned; in lakes where mosquitoes breed, sulfur is poured in... all of which can weaken the spread of certain diseases.

As night fell, the sky was already shrouded in darkness. The warriors of the personal guard lit a bonfire, lighting up the valley in the forest. Shulot was lost in thought. For bacterial plagues, various symptomatic herbs are the key to treatment. The Chinese medicine of this era has a relatively mature response to the treatment of typhoid fever and malaria. For typhoid fever, Houttuynia cordata decoction is used, and for malaria, Qinghao prescription is used, both of which are inherited from the medical books of the previous generation.

"It would be great if we could go across the sea to the west...to obtain medical inheritance from the Ming Dynasty, and to obtain various herbs such as Houttuynia cordata and Artemisia annua!..."

Xiulot thought for a long time, then shook his head slightly. If you want to go west across the sea, you must have European voyage technology. Once the Europeans came, they would inevitably bring plagues. At this critical juncture, American civilization does not have much time, and it is always extremely urgent... After a while, he came back to his senses and thought about the virus-like plague response again.

Virus-like severe infectious diseases, including smallpox, measles, mumps, and yellow fever. Among them, the most important thing to pay attention to is naturally smallpox. At this time, the smallpox virus has been raging throughout Europe for many years, causing countless deaths. The first severe infectious disease brought by the colonists was bound to be smallpox.

"What about smallpox? . . . That would be vaccination, of course."

Xiu Luote thought of a book about the end of the Yuan Dynasty. The protagonist got his fortune by vaccination, and the method was not complicated.

In this era, the technology that has appeared in the south of China is human pox. The commonly used human pox method is divided into dry seedling method and water seedling method. The so-called dry seedlings are to grind the scabs off the smallpox patients who are recovering into powder, and then blow them into the nostrils of the inoculated people with a silver tube. The so-called water seedlings are to grind the acne scab into powder, then add water to adjust the humidity, wrap it with cotton **** and stuff it into the nasal cavity.

In essence, smallpox is to obtain attenuated smallpox virus from recovering smallpox patients, and then infect those who have never been vaccinated, so that they will suffer from less severe smallpox. Once a smallpox patient recovers, they will never get it again for life. The resistance acquired from the attenuated virus can also defend against the unattenuated virus.

The further development of the human pox method is to use the pox scab that has been inoculated multiple times as a vaccine. It is equivalent to directional screening to continuously obtain less toxic smallpox viruses. The least virulent is a close relative of the smallpox virus, the vaccinia virus. But this requires not only Eurasian cattle, but also cattle that happen to have pox.

"The longer the seedlings are passed on, the clearer the medicinal power will be, and the more refined the artificial selection will be. The fire and poison will be eliminated, and the essence will remain alone, so it is perfect and harmless..."

Likewise, vaccination can be used for measles. As for mumps and yellow fever, Schlott didn't know much about it, and he didn't have a definite solution.

"The fifth task is to choose a small offshore island far away from human habitation, and establish a secret medical center. Research epidemic gas, trial production...humanpox and vaccinia...Forget it, the alliance does not have an outlet in the East China Sea. The item is just preparation, there is no rush."

After giving half of the order, Xiulot retracted his words. Then, he smiled in relief and said loudly.

"Okay, that's all for today's teaching! Prepare the barbecue, and we will camp by the spring."

Alyssa blinked. She hugged her lover tightly, felt the strong heartbeat of the other person, and also felt the man's strong self-confidence and will. Inexplicably, the soft girl felt a little hot. She looked up to the sky, the clouds covered the moon, and there would be an autumn rain soon, soaking the deep earth.

"Sholot...after the barbecue...let's eat avocado!"

The girl exhaled like blue, and blew it into her lover's ear, making him feel like an electric shock had passed through his body.

"I brought some avocados...According to what you said, what kind of hormones can be promoted, and the deer's... The night is very long, let's try together and explore some new...rituals... .”

"ah?..."

Xiulot's body became hot, and a flame ignited in UU Reading www.uukanshu.com's heart. He looked at his charming lover, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely.

"I can eat you without the avocado..."

"Well, really? I don't believe it...hehe."

Seeing this scene, Naxiu raised her eyebrows. She sighed helplessly, made a few gestures, and the warriors dispersed again.

Not long after, the autumn rain fell from the sky with bursts of thunder. And hearing the continuous thunder, the cold female warrior felt hot all over, and her feet felt weak. She looked down, and at some point, the ground had been soaked soft and wet by the rain.

Happy days are always busy and short. The rainy season is over, the clouds have been sucked dry by the rain, and the thunder can't last long. A few days later, a group of messengers came from afar, bringing the latest report from the western kingdom.

The wind rises from the end of Qingping, and the waves form between the waves. The autumn harvest in the world is over, and the storm of war is about to sweep the east!
