"Blair?"

"Blair is here too?"

"He's that damn Blair!"

"Damn it, he invented something like a stethoscope!"

...

As soon as Catherine finished speaking, Chen Luo and Christine didn't speak, and the surroundings were like a frying pot, and instantly boiled. The atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than the discussion of the plague just now.

At the same time, Chen Luo also felt a deep resentment from the people around him.

However, he was regarded as a devil and a symbol of evil in the mathematics world, and he had long been accustomed to being hated by others.

Chen Luo ignored everyone, looked at Catherine and asked, "Doctor Catherine, have you found out what specific disease is causing the plague?"

Catherine shook her head and said, "No, the king has never had this disease before. Doctors don't know what kind of medicine to prepare."

"What are the symptoms of patients?" It is not easy for doctors in this world to diagnose the condition, so Chen Luo changed his question.

Katherine looked at him and said, "The patient sweats heavily, has headaches, thirst, and often has intermittent chills or fever..."

Chen Luo asked: "Does the interval between the two attacks happen to be about two days?"

Catherine was stunned for a moment, looked at him, and said in surprise: "How do you know?"

This conclusion was discovered by several doctors just now. The patient was generally normal between the two attacks, but each attack would immediately fall into danger and even die...

Chen Luo murmured: "Malaria..."

He is not a doctor, but he has also heard of the bad reputation of malaria.

Malaria, AIDS, tuberculosis, are known as the three major diseases in the world. Malaria, an intermittent fever disease, is even called "the murderer of millions of people". If the impact of malaria is evaluated based on the number of victims and the degree of victimization, it can be regarded as the most devastating disease in human history.

Throughout the 17th century, malaria was raging around the world and almost killed Kangxi. Even in the 19th century, it was still a common disease in the European continent.

After entering the 21st century, nearly 300 million people in the world are infected with malaria every year, and 1 million people die because of this. This is still in the modern modern with advanced medical skills. In the mainstream divine grace continent, bloodletting therapy is still the mainstream. Without special medicine, patients are infected with malaria and want to survive, they can only rely on luck.

Catherine looked at Chen Luo in confusion and asked, "What?"

Chen Luo came back to his senses and whispered: "I may have a way to cure this plague."

Upon hearing this, Katherine showed joy on her face, and she grabbed his hand excitedly and asked, "Student Blair, is this true?"

Chen Luo nodded and said, "I have seen it in a book before. Some people call this disease "malaria" and have successfully cured many patients."

Catherine hurriedly said, "Where is that book now?"

Chen Luo shook his head and said, "I lost it when I moved later, but I still remember the two medicines for treating malaria, provided that we can find the raw materials..."

When the Medical Association and other doctors were still arguing about what methods to treat the plague, Chen Luo, Katherine and Christine had already arrived in a quiet room.

Kristen closed the door, Katherine looked at Chen Luo and asked urgently: "What materials are needed to make that kind of potion?"

The discovery of quinine is a special drug for the treatment of malaria and is one of the greatest achievements of medicine in the 17th century.

The reason why Chen Luo understood this knowledge was because Tu Youyou's team discovered artemisinin, solved the problem of failure of antimalarial treatment, won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, and stood on the Nobel Prize for the Podium as a Chinese, which made the mainstream non-mainstream media in China compete to report, Chen Luo, who was in college, was also one of countless young people who were proud of Chinese scientists.

For this reason, he had specially learned about malaria online, and also knew that before artemisinin, quinine was the best special medicine for treating malaria.

However, the cinchona tree used to produce quinine is not native to South America and is not found anywhere. Chen Luo did not know whether this kind of tree exists in the Shenren Continent.

Chen Luo looked at Catherine and said, "It's a kind of tree. I don't know what the name of the tree is. I only know that its bark is gray-brown, thin, with light and many cracks. The corolla is white or light yellow-white, and there are light yellow and long pubic hairs on the edge of the inner surface..."

Katherine looked at Chen Luo and said in confusion: "I know many plants, but I have never heard of such trees."

Chen Luo sighed. There may not be no plants that even Catherine knows in this world, but there are definitely no plants near the capital. The road to treating malaria through quinine has been temporarily blocked.

Apart from quinine, Chen Luo knew that only artemisinin could treat malaria.

Artemisia saccharomyceae is widely distributed and grows in temperate, cold and subtropical areas of Europe and Asia. Chen Luo rarely goes out and has not been seen in the Kingdom of Luolan, which does not mean that it does not exist.

Chen Luo looked at Catherine again and said, "There is also a plant that is more than one person tall. The plant has a strong volatile aroma. The roots are vertical and narrow spindle-shaped; the stems can probably grow to adult height, with longitudinal edges, green when young, and then turn brown or reddish brown, with multiple branches..."

Before Chen Luo could finish speaking, Catherine blurted out and said, "Sweet silk grass!"

She took out thick books from the bookshelf in the corner of the wall, flipped it for a while, pointed to one of them, and asked, "Is this what classmate Blair said?"

Chen Luo recognized it at a glance. The thing called "Fragrant Silk Grass" in the book is Artemisia vermicelli.

He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "That's it."

"How to use it?" Catherine continued, "After mashing it and taking it to the patient?"

Chen Luo shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if you take it directly. You need to extract the active ingredients."

Catherine asked, “How to extract it?”

Chen Luo thought for a while and said, "First, you need to prepare some alcohol with high purity, and then you need to prepare some ether with alcohol. First, prepare a large amount of scented silk grass. How to extract it specifically, let's talk about it..."

For most people, high school is the pinnacle of their wisdom in their lives.

Back then, Chen Luo also knew the principles of celestial bodies and the reactions of organic and inorganic; he solved the elliptical hyperbola before and drew the cell biosphere; he could speak English, and he could also translate ancient texts, find sequences, talk about Mazhe, he could memorize the chemical element table, and understand physical circuit diagrams...

After going to college, he was almost the same as illiterate as an illiterate except for his knowledge in his major.

Now he has forgotten most of these things. Although the remaining knowledge and the artemisinin extracted are better than pulping directly, the purity is not very high.

But what Chen Luo could not do does not mean that Catherine could not do it.

The wizards’ understanding of plants is not comparable to that of magicians. They can even use witchcraft to extract some of the components in the plants out of thin air. This is mentioned in Heriye’s note, but he did not record the specific method.

Katherine was obviously not worried about purification, and Christine said: "I will ask someone to prepare a large amount of silk grass immediately!"

Christine quickly arranged the arrangements, and Chen Luo finally felt relieved. He didn't want malaria to rage in the capital, and he couldn't refuse Alice to die.

After the tense atmosphere was lifted, Chen Luo suddenly realized that Christine was looking at him with a suspicious look.

Chen Luo asked, "Is there anything else that Princess?"

Christine said: "Call me Teacher Christine."

"...Okay." Chen Luo looked at her and asked again: "Is there anything else in Teacher Christine?"

Christine wrapped her hands around her, looked at Chen Luo, and asked, "You said, these are what you saw in a book. What is the name of that book? What else is it written on it?"

This reason is indeed impossible to hide from Christine. As a princess, she is knowledgeable and if Chen Luo continues to make it up, it is very likely that the insult will be revealed.

He smiled embarrassedly and said, "It turns out that I can't hide it from Teacher Christine. Actually, these are not what I saw in the book. They were taught by a doctor traveling to the mainland. But he told me not to say it casually. Since Teacher Christine asked, it's nothing to tell you..."

"doctor?"
