Chapter 9 Its a doctor! (7)
Seeing the girl burning her proud work in front of her, Avicenna was so angry that she almost blew her beard away. The group of disciples he brought were all angry. If it weren't for the Swedish king and a group of pirates behind her, they would have rushed up and threw the girl out the window.
"Look at the doctor you are looking for!" Avicenna vented his anger at Dust, "Why don't you drive this quack out! Are you planning to let your companion die in the hospital bed?"
Dust also felt that this "famous doctor" was a little unreliable. She was too young and her behavior didn't look like a normal person. But he didn't have the courage to drive Ella out. After quietly comparing the muscles of himself and the pirate beside him, he chose to lower his head and pretend that he didn't hear it.
However, the girl was obviously angry with Avicenna.
"Avicenna, you can't cure her, and you still have the face to say that I'm a quack?"
"Do you kill her directly with mercury? That's a murderer, not a doctor at all." Avicenna replied indifferently, "As a doctor, I can only try my best to use the best method. The one who ultimately determines the life and death of the patient is God."
"This girl's wound was very severe, with fever, pus, ulceration, and even began to spread. Avicenna, what did you do after you have been treating her for more than a month?"
Avicenna replied without changing his face: "The best way to deal with wound infection should be to prevent it. The first time you are injured, you should use a hot soldering iron to iron the wound, rather than waiting for the infection to be treated. Once the infection worsens, in order to save your life, the best way is to amputate the limbs. However, the girl's infected parts are all over the body, which is really irrescueable by manpower."
"Even so, the teacher has done his best to treat it!" A disciple of Avicenna said, "Using expensive frankincense to wipe the patient's skin and soak it in hot water to make the patient feel hot and sweaty. This is the best therapy that people can use. The patient's condition is aggravated, so no wonder the teacher!"
"But her condition worsened." The girl attacked Avicenna mercilessly. "You come here today, probably because you have brought new treatments?"
"If her body fluids cannot reach equilibrium, no method will work. We can try to put some blood on her to adjust her body fluids."
"Avicenna, don't you feel it yourself? Whether it's wiping with frankincense or bathing in hot water, there will be no effect at all!" The girl scolded Avicenna sternly, "Her body is already very weak. If she bleeds her again, she will not be able to last tonight!"
Avicenna cured the king's illness at the age of nineteen. Since then, he has been regarded as a miracle doctor. Those doctors have only the right to pick up his wisdom. He has never been criticized like this. The girl's words made Avicenna's forehead burst out and her face turned purple. He forced a smile and asked, "Then do you think, how are you going to treat her? Are you using mercury? I have done my best to my colleagues. If she dies tonight, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
"Can the medicine treat syphilis the same as the medicine for wound infection? Do you have syphilis in your mind?"
The girl rushed back straightforwardly.
"Do I want you to use mercury to treat you?"
"Brain, syphilis in the brain? You, you, you..."
Avicenna "You" for a long time but you didn't say anything. He was so angry that he fainted. His apprentices quickly surrounded him and pinched him for a long time before finally waking him up.
Avicenna lay in the corner of the wall, gasping for a long time, unable to say a word. Avicenna's disciples couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at the girl: "How can you speak to the teacher like this? You said that the teacher's therapy is useless, so do you have any good therapy?"
"Of course." The girl replied, "I cured a similar disease not long ago."
The girl's words shocked Avicenna's disciples. If Avicenna was not cured and was cured by this girl, they would have made a fool of themselves.
"You are lying!" a disciple shouted, "If you could cure this level of wound infection, you would have become famous all over the world! But I have never heard of such a female doctor! Have you ever heard of it?"
His last half was asking the other disciples of Avicenna. Naturally, all of them shook their heads.
"It's normal that I haven't heard of it." The girl said, "because I've cured it was just a teenage mouse."
As soon as these words were said, not only Avicenna's disciples, but even the pirates watching laughed. Even Ella began to doubt her decision - the girl's words and deeds after entering the door were really not very decent.
However, the girl was unmoved and asked, "Is it funny?"
"It's so funny." A disciple of Avicenna said loudly, "Animals are animals, and humans are humans. How can we apply the methods of treating animals to humans?"
"Very good." said the girl, "Can you tell me where do you doctors know about human body structure?"
The pirates did not understand the meaning of what the girl said, and were still laughing there. But Avicenna and his disciples' faces suddenly turned black - most of the contemporary medicine's understanding of human body structure comes from Garen, who is also the inheritor of this knowledge. However, Garen himself did not dissect the human body, but directly copied the experience of dissecting animals to humans.
"You said you cured the mouse's wound infection," another disciple of Avicenna continued to question the girl in discontent, "Can you tell me what herb you are using?"
"No herbs were used," replied the girl, "I used a red dye synthesized by alchemy, which does not exist in nature and cannot be directly extracted from any substances present in nature."
"The dye...and it is synthesized by alchemy, it doesn't sound reassuring. Is it really not toxic?"
"Some." The girl replied without restraint, "After curing the disease, the rat was also poisoned to death."
The disciples of Avicenna laughed out loud again with relief.
"Isn't that still poison?" they shouted to the girl, "You're just a drugmaker!"
"Why are you afraid of toxic things?" the girl retorted, "Even if it is water, it is poisonous after excessive intake! And those who can poison mice may not necessarily poison people, right? What determines the toxicity is the dose! Dose! Dose!"
"That... Paracelsus, I don't want to doubt you." Ella pulled the girl's sleeve and whispered, "Although you said that those who poisoned rats may not necessarily poison people, you have never tried whether this medicine can poison people, right? It is already very dangerous to poison mice. Can't you use safer drugs?"
"I can try to use alchemy to reduce the toxicity of the drug." The girl looked at Ella seriously. "You should understand that there is no danger and effective drug, Avicenna must have used it long ago."
Avicenna heard the girl's words from afar and shouted in anger:
"It's alchemy again! Did you hear it? She wanted to use artificially synthesized medicine to replace the herbs given to us by nature! Don't you understand? This girl is here to poison! Do you still keep her? Do you really want the patient to die!"
