Ask Sword

Chapter 241 Ascites

One hundred thousand people.

Li Ang's heart skipped a beat. What King Guang said was the estimated number of patients, which was almost confirmed, plus obvious symptoms, and the number of people estimated by the Suzhou government outside the statistical range.

The true number of water poisoning patients must be added to those who do not show symptoms, but have indeed been infected with water poisoning.

The number of 100,000 may be doubled, or even more. And it's increasing every minute and every second as time goes by.

Li Ang immediately turned around, greeted Song Shaoyuan and others, and Chai Chai in the living room, then followed Taichang Siqing into the carriage, and asked, Where are we going now? The palace?

No, too medical department.

The Minister of Taichang Temple is concise and to the point.

The carriage went straight east, passed through Taipingfang, passed through Hanguang Gate, and entered the Taichang Temple's Imperial Medical Office.

The lights in the Imperial Medical Office were brightly lit, and many doctors gathered around a patient, discussing intensely.

They were obviously summoned here temporarily, and they were all still wearing the fur coats and silk coats they wore on New Year's Eve, and some of them still smelled of alcohol.

It's the end of winter at this time, and the patient's illness time should be in summer and autumn. The so-called hot and humid intersect, and the people's disease is jaundice. If the damp and heat are not in motion, various diseases will arise. This water poisoning jaundice is obviously heat yellow caused by contact with water.

Yin yellow may also be yin yellow. You need to know yang yellow tongue coating is yellow and greasy, hot, yellow and rough. Yin yellow tongue coating is white and greasy, yin is rich, and the tongue coating is bright and white.

How do you recommend medication?

How about Qiancao? It is mainly poisonous, boiled and taken. Combined with comfrey, the so-called sick confidant is full, and you can't eat it at night. Comfrey controls the evil energy of the confidant, and it is full of swelling. It should be effective.

All the doctors were discussing, and someone noticed Li Ang out of the corner of his eye, and immediately lowered his voice, Mr. Li Xiaolang is here.

The noise in the courtyard immediately subsided,

Please let me go.

Li Ang politely asked the people in front to move away, and quickly stepped forward. When he saw Qiu Feng, he nodded slightly at her.

Taichang Siqing and Qiu Jing followed behind, and there was no sullen expression on their faces that was ignored. The same is not true on King Guang's face - Li Shan has long been used to the feeling of being deliberately ignored.

The level of physicians in the Chang'an Imperial Medical Office is much higher than that in places like Weizhou, at least there will be no Fu and Shi doctors like Yu Miaoshui.

Therefore, they can also better understand the significance of allicin, penicillin, blood transfusion, anatomical diagrams, etc. to medicine.

Even if the halo of the top scholar in the school is removed, Li Ang can still get respect and preferential treatment here.

Passing through the crowd, Li Ang saw Qiu Feng

Patient sitting in a chair.

He looked to be in his thirties, dressed in ordinary clothes, with a thin body and slightly dark skin, and he had the air of a sailor who had been on the water all year round - Li Ang was very familiar with this type of person.

His face was slightly yellow, his breathing was relatively short and rapid, and the hem of the commoner clothes was open, revealing a slightly swollen abdomen.

At this time, the temperature in Chang'an was not high, and the patient held a yellow paper talisman in his hand, exuding warmth, so as not to freeze and catch the cold.

Hello.

Li Ang saw the nervousness of the other party, a smile appeared on his face, and asked gently: I'm Li Ang. What's your name? Where do you live? How do you feel now?

Mr. Li Li Xiaolang.

The man stammered, with a distinct Wu accent in his words, My surname is Yi, my family is the third, and I live in Wu County, Suzhou. I am a crew member of the Guide Company.

After listening to Yi San's narration, Li Ang roughly understood what was going on.

Yi San is an employee of Guide Company. A month ago, he took on the business order and transported the goods northward along the Grand Canal to Luoyang.

While in Luoyang, the crew on board began to cough, have chest pains, and some had bloodshot sputum.

However, running a ship is hard work, and this symptom is very normal. The crew just bought some medicinal materials in Luoyang and cooked them by themselves. The owner of the ship also took some allicin from the Luoyang Infirmary through his relationship and put it on the ship.

Today, the preservation of allicin is still a big problem. It’s okay to take it now, but if you want to store it for a long time, you can only put it in an expensive sealed glass test tube, and it only has a validity period of ten to fifteen days.

Over the past year, everyone in Yu State has regarded allicin as a magic medicine, and powerful and well-connected families even take it every now and then for fear of getting sick.

However, during the voyage of the merchant ship, a crew member became seriously ill. The owner gave him allicin, but he still failed to get better, and even began to have symptoms such as diarrhea, blood and mucus in the stool, and ascites.

The merchant ship was Aunt Yu with a crew of hundreds of people. The owner of the ship let the sick get off the ship to recuperate.

As a result, within a few days, all seven adults on board were sick, thin, with swollen abdomen, enlarged spleen, and coughing up blood.

Other patients lie in the room,

Qiu Jing said in a low voice: It's not just this merchant ship, many other merchant ships from Suzhou that arrived in Chang'an have crew members who are sick.

Some merchant ships even stayed in Suzhou for two days and got sick.

.

Li Ang was silent for a while, and leaned forward, listening to Yi San's chest.

With the improvement of his cultivation progress, his sensory ability became more and more acute, and he could easily hear the murmur in Yi San's swollen abdomen.

How about it?

Qiu Jing asked in a low voice.

very bad.

Li Ang raised his head with a gloomy expression, I'm infected, my stomach is full of parasites.

An uproar sounded in the courtyard, and the doctors knew exactly what it meant.

People are poisoned by water, insects eat the five internal organs, and the heat is extremely annoying, which cannot be cured by good doctors.

There is no cure.

Yi San's face turned pale in an instant, his lips trembled slightly, and his teeth trembled, Infection. Does it mean that the disease will spread? Mr. Li Xiaolang, my parents, my wife and children are still in Wu County

He lowered his head, with a dazed expression, and murmured: Why? Our family obeys the order of the state government not to drink raw water or eat raw fish.

I'm afraid it's not a matter of raw water.

Li Ang had a serious expression, pursed his lips slightly, and turned to look at Qiu Feng, I need Niansi.
