Chapter 150: Pretend to be dizzy
At this time, Zhou Heng could already determine that Meng Xiaoyou was not poisoned in a short period of time, it required accumulation. Being pricked and angry was just a cause, and the toxin had penetrated into the bone marrow.
"Big gray-black papules can be seen in many places on the edge of the hairline, on the neck, and on the palms. Meng Xiaoyou is in his prime. This is not the color spots formed after he is old, but the traces left by long-term exposure to toxins."
Dr. Qu was a little confused this time, "You said that you have long-term contact, which means that no one poisoned him, but toxins that are often exposed to in daily life? It seems that this poison is not given by those who ask him to testify. In this case, wouldn't we doctors have come into contact with each other?"
Zhou Heng paused, "The drugs used by doctors have two sides. They can be both holy medicines to save people, and they can also become invisible tools for killing people. Many drugs overdose or improperly produced can produce toxins and endanger their lives. However, these patches of Meng Xiaoyou made me determine that the poison he was in was cinnabar."
Dr. Qu was stunned, "Cinnabar, the effect of cinnabar calming the mind and repelling insects is very significant. My Daliang Kingdom also has the custom of wearing cinnabar, so how can I get poisoned? This is simply a joke."
When Zhou Heng heard Dr. Qu say this, he quickly opened Meng Xiaoyou's sleeves and looked around.
Sure enough, there was indeed a string of bright red bracelets on his right wrist. Looking at the shining metallic light inside, he reached out to touch it. The warmth seemed to be warm. Zhou Heng could determine that this was the cinnabar crystal.
However, when such crystals are heated or incinerated, high concentrations of mercury will still evaporate, because the main component of cinnabar is mercury sulfide, and preheated mercury will evaporate.
Mercury has a special affinity with the sparse groups in proteins. At high concentrations, it can inhibit a variety of enzymes and activities.
Mercury entering the body is mainly distributed in the liver and kidneys, causing liver and kidney damage, and can pass through the blood-brain barrier and directly damage the central nervous system.
However, it makes no sense to say too much about Dr. Qu. After all, it cannot explain the relevant knowledge of chemistry. Although they can understand nerves, compounds are really difficult to explain.
Zhou Heng looked at Dr. Qu, walked to Meng Xiaoyou, signaled Dr. Qu to pull away Meng Xiaoyou's mouth, and then said:
"You just saw that I did not check Meng Xiaoyou's mouth. If cinnabar poisoned him, then Meng Xiaoyou would not only have papules-like patches on his skin, his complexion was blue and gray, and he would bleeding gums in his mouth. If he would break his teeth, he would also loosen. If he touched the abdomen, the liver and spleen would become enlarged."
Dr. Qu became stubborn and hurried to Meng Xiaoyou's side, held the candlestick, stretched out his mouth and looked over.
Sure enough, I saw blood on my gums, and my fingers gently shaking my front teeth. It was indeed not as strong as ordinary people. I felt shaking after a little touch, which was indeed loose.
Dr. Qu was not discouraged and wiped his fingers and touched Meng Xiaoyou's left and right upper abdomen. He felt the size of the liver without having to investigate hard, and the spleen was the same.
According to Zhou Heng’s booklet, the spleen of ordinary people cannot reach, but Meng Xiaoyou’s touch with his hands is still very hard.
Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows and looked clear. Dr. Qu came over and spread his hands. Zhou Heng quickly handed him the alcohol cotton ball in disgust.
"Disin it first."
Dr. Qu didn't dislike him and asked:
"I touch the medicinal materials every day, let alone cinnabar, I also touch the medicine next to it every day. Why am I not poisoned?"
As he said that, he raised his hands in front of Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng said with a smile:
"Doctor Qu, don't worry, it's not that cinnabar will be poisoned after taking it, or you can't touch it at all. The mercury in this cinnabar will only evaporate when it comes to heat. It is a colorless and odorless gas that can be breathed in by people. This mercury is also called mercury."
Doctor Qu looked meditated, "I have heard of mercury, as dazzling as the Milky Way, but this is something used in the royal secret technique. It is said that it can be used to preserve the body. Mercury is used in the emperor's tomb. If this thing touches it, it will be beheaded. I didn't expect that mercury could actually come out of the cinnabar."
Zhou Hai looked puzzled, "Since the cinnabar bracelets are prevalent in Daliang Kingdom, is there no law forbidden?"
Dr. Qu shook his head and took it out of his purse. A stone tied with a red rope was bright red on the front. An elephant was carved, lifelike, and a black and yellow stone on the back. Zhou Heng looked at it and nodded.
"This is cinnabar, but the purity is not particularly high."
Dr. Qu took it back and pretended carefully.
"This is created by my daughter, who asked someone to make it for me. Daliang Kingdom advocates wearing cinnabar and gravel. Can this thing harm people?"
Zhou Heng shook his head, "It's just that wearing it like this is not only not poisonous, but also calms the mind and deworms. It's just afraid of heat."
Qu Ziping put away the pendant and sighed. Such poison had exceeded his cognition. He could not think of a solution for a while, and he looked at Meng Xiaoyou on the clinic bed.
"Since you think he was poisoned, there is any way to treat it? At least he can speak. In order to save his life, you can at least confess some experiences."
Zhou Heng nodded, "I think so too. Doctor Qu, please apply acupuncture, Baihui, Renzhong, Cheek Car, Dicang, Jiquan, Chize, Taixi, Taichong, Zusanli, Zhongwan, Neiguan, Sanyinjiao, you need warm acupuncture, that is, after applying the needle, insert moxa sticks at the end of the needle to ignite it, and the effect can be doubled."
Dr. Qu didn't ask why, and the acupuncture and moxibustion could be used in this way in Zhou Heng, which made Dr. Qu realize in an instant that the three words "warm acupuncture" are very appropriate. Combining warm moxibustion and acupuncture, the effect of such a combination has been greatly expanded countless times.
Thinking of this, my hand didn't stop, so I quickly took out my golden needle, cut the moxa stick into pieces, inserted it at the end of the needle, and then I started applying the needle.
The acupoints mentioned by Zhou Heng were completely engraved in Dr. Qu's mind. This was to wake up the magical orifices and clear the meridians. In a moment, all the silver needles with moxa sticks had been applied.
Zhou Heng had already asked Wang Sanshun to come in. He massaged and applied needles every day, and stabbed the villain. This time, there was no need to be so troublesome, just take care of Meng Xiaoyou.
"Miaosan'er lit all the moxa sticks at the end of the needle, and then used two moxa sticks to burn Meng Xiaoyou's temples. Don't burn him. I want dense small blisters here, so that they must not break."
Wang Sanshun nodded and said yes, grabbed the fire stick and quickly lit all the moxa sticks, then grabbed two moxa sticks and blew their heads, and then began to roast their temples.
Meng Xiaoyou didn't know whether it was because of the injection of the needle or the smoke from these moxa sticks choked. He was originally very quiet after taking the needle, but now he became a little restless.
Zhou Heng stepped back and lifted the curtain to ventilate. The fourteen moxa sticks lit it. The clinic was like burning firewood. Not to mention the thick smoke, it was almost the same. He grabbed a folding fan and kept fanning it.
The patients at the door stretched their heads inward, but the smoke and dust were too big and couldn't see clearly. Meng Deliang just knelt in front of the door, waited honestly, and looked up secretly. Seeing that the few people were busy, he felt a little relieved of his worries.
Two quarters of an hour later, the smoke and dust dissipated. Zhou Heng signaled Wang Sanshun to lift the needle. Wang Sanshun quickly held a basin with half a basin of water. He dipped it in cold water to grab the golden needle, and then threw all the burning moxa sticks and golden needles into the basin.
With the sound of sizzling, all the golden needles started to rise.
Zhou Heng walked in and looked at the sides of Meng Xiaoyou's temples, where the blisters were fine and very balanced, and there were no excessive blisters or ruptures.
Meng Xiaoyou's crooked mouth was already looking a little straight. Although he wasn't completely closed, the saliva was almost gone. Although his head was still trembling, it was much better than before. His eyes were closed and he couldn't tell whether he was asleep or something.
Dr. Qu stepped forward, wiped the needle with an alcohol cotton ball, and grabbed Meng Xiaoyou's wrist to check the pulse.
The more I checked, the more my brows became.
Wang Sanshun looked at Dr. Qu with some concern, his expression made people really nervous.
"What's wrong with Dr. Qu? Is it serious?"
Zhou Heng raised his leg and kicked Wang Sanshun's butt.
