The Devil's Kiln has always been a forbidden area in Yangjiazhai. Children will stop crying when they hear it, and adults will become angry when they hear the talks. Over the years, Yangjiazhai has been peaceful, but there is nothing wrong with it. That is, Yang Laowu and the others went to the mountain to cut trees and then came back.
It has become like this.
In the eyes of people who don't understand, this must be because of a hundred-year curse or because someone broke into the Devil's Cave.
"Grandma, we saw many coffins in the Devil's Kiln, some made of golden nan, and some made of sarcophagus. There were corpses inside. Judging from the clothes of their corpses, they should be those of those a hundred years ago."
When the young Miao girl was asked to talk to the old lady, the old lady suddenly sat up from the Taishi chair and kept muttering something unknown. However, looking at her expression, it could be seen that the other party was very scared.
"It must be them."
The old lady said it many times, and the young Miao girls also heard it.
them?
Who are they referring to?
There is no doubt that the villagers and bandits who died in the plague a hundred years ago may have totaled hundreds of people. That's why Xiao Chen and Dr. Liu saw so many coffins in the cave.
Of course, it's not even just those eras, it may have been earlier.
"They are devils. More people will definitely die in our village." The old lady said there.
Now, due to this plague outbreak, more than fifty people have died, and there are still nearly a thousand patients who are in the incubation period, chill stage, or critical stage.
With so many patients, if they were not isolated and treated in time, the number of deaths and infections would be even greater.
Of course, when Xiao Chen comes here this time, he will definitely not let other innocent patients die.
I don’t know if the old lady was too excited and looked very bad. Xiao Chen didn’t tell the other party anymore. When the young Miao girl was asked to take care of the old lady, Xiao Chen began to suspect that the so-called century-old curse might be related to the above.
The Devil's Kiln is related.
If the true source and method of spread of the plague are found, then the recurrence of this plague will definitely be avoided, and then this so-called century-old curse will no longer exist.
Xiao Chen and Tang Bing came down from the old lady's yard and returned to the tent. Xiao Chen wanted to take a rest first.
Wait until he wakes up to check on the conditions of those patients.
Xiao Chen took a nap and woke up at around six o'clock in the evening.
When Xiao Chen got up and simply washed up, and then called Tang Bing and Mo Xiaowan, Mo Xiaowan almost felt better after resting for an afternoon.
"Sister Tang Bing, sister Xiaowan, let's go have dinner!" The two girls came out of the tent and went with Xiao Chen to the temporary canteen in the quarantine area.
For some reason, when Xiao Chen saw the villagers from Yangjiazhai on the road, he didn't even have time to say hello to them. Instead, the villagers looked at him with awe in their eyes, and then ran away from a distance.
"Sister Xiaowan, are those villagers a little weird?"
"may be."
Xiao Chen thought it was because the person in charge of the quarantine area was now here, so he didn't think much about it. Arriving at the temporary canteen in the quarantine area, Xiao Chen, Tang Bing, and Mo Xiaowan hadn't sat down yet. Two middle-aged women
, who was also a villager from Yangjiazhai, ran away in a hurry when he saw Xiao Chen.
"Why are they so weird?" Xiao Chen also wanted to bring dinner over, but he was afraid that he would have to let Tang Bing and Mo Xiaowan go.
The two women went over and prepared four dishes and one soup, and placed them in front of Xiao Chen.
When Xiao Chen was sitting there eating dinner, after finishing dinner, he wanted to check on the conditions of those critically ill patients.
Arriving outside the door of the critically ill ward, Xiao Chen went inside and began to examine the patients one by one.
Xiao Chen first checked the pulse of the first patient, and then used fluoroscopy to see the condition of the internal organs of these patients. A few days ago, Xiao Chen's examination found that in addition to heart failure, they also had complications such as internal bleeding. However, after Xiao Chen died,
Treat with medication, and then prescribe relevant generic prescriptions to drink.
There has been no internal bleeding in the patient's internal organs. In addition, it can be seen from the pulse condition that their condition has gradually stabilized.
However, Xiao Chen knew that the current effect would only delay for a period of time at most, and would not completely cure the patient's disease.
Therefore, these days, Xiao Chen has been asking members of the traditional Chinese medicine expert group to record the symptoms of these patients. Xiao Chen wants to find commonalities based on these symptoms.
Although Xiao Chen can confirm that this is definitely a febrile disease and not a typhoid fever, but only by truly prescribing the right medicine can the patient be completely cured.
Compared with patients in the critical stage, patients in the chill stage recovered very well after Xiao Chen's acupuncture treatment, especially those of Xie Yonghua's colleagues. After Xiao Chen's acupuncture treatment, the frequency of chills became less and less. In addition,
Under the influence of the traditional Chinese medicine decoction, it can be said that Xiao Chen's current treatment is the most effective.
When Xiao Chen was treating those patients, when he saw Mr. Tang, Zhao Zhonghui, and Zhu Han, these two people naturally did not expect that Xiao Chen really took those doctors up the mountain, and it took him a whole day and night to get down the mountain.
"Doctor Xiao." Zhao Zhonghui came over to say hello.
"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhu, why did I feel that the villagers in Yangjiazhai were acting strangely when they saw me just now?"
"It's not strange." Zhao Zhonghui said.
They had already heard that Xiao Chen took Dr. Liu and the others over the mountains and roasted wild boars. When there was no water, they looked for water from the vines and trees. They also encountered ghosts who broke into the wall. It was Xiao Chen who borrowed the dead people.
The ghost came to lead the way and escaped from the ghost wall.
Western medicine doctors may not believe in ghosts and ghosts, but most Chinese medicine practitioners do, especially old Chinese medicine doctors who keep a respectful distance from these things.
They didn't expect that Xiao Chen actually knew this.
"Mr. Zhao, who are they?"
"They were afraid and in awe. It was Brother Yang who came down from the mountain and said it," Zhao Zhonghui said.
No wonder, it seems that these Miao people are still in a very closed mind.
Remembering that Brother Yang kept worshiping those old trees that night, Xiao Chen knew the situation of these villagers.
"That's nothing. If Yang Laowu and the others hadn't been greedy for money and went to the mountains to cut down trees, I'm afraid there wouldn't be this plague."
"Dr. Xiao, is what you are talking about retribution?"
"Isn't it retribution? The source of the spread of this plague is probably in the mountains. I have asked Dr. Liu and others to come back with those targets for testing. However, it is not yet certain. However, it is almost certain that the source of the spread is in the mountains.
The villagers who cut down trees on the mountain must have been infected by those things they came into contact with."
"Dr. Xiao, what are you talking about?"
"There's water there, there are bats inside, and maybe even bat poop." (To be continued)
