Medicine is the practice of technology in the human body. Doctors cannot treat all diseases, especially those who cannot save them.

The day after Chen Shigong arrived in Tongzhou, medical household teams guarded the streets at all streets in the city. The flag army, who were mixed with people, clamoring to promote the orders on the street to prohibit drinking raw water, isolate livestock, and take a bath with sulfur powder, but there are still people drinking raw water.

The medical household team was in a hurry and the people complained.

Drinking hot water, which was called drinking soup and warm soup in ancient times, was an ancient habit, but this is a habit that is definitely not something that everyone can follow.

Because drinking warm soup and tea requires boiling water, this habit was popularized among the lower class people at least in the Song Dynasty, but it was related to human living conditions. In fact, human living conditions were extremely important due to general environmental factors. The progress of the times and the development of science and technology were not the only conditions.

Can the living standards of poor people in the 31st year of the Republic of China be greater than those in the 13th year of Emperor Wen of Han?

It is better to be a peaceful and chaotic person, and this is what I mean.

Nowadays, Tongzhou City is in a bad environment... After the city gate is closed, there is food and well water, but there is no firewood.

Firewood needs a woodcutter to go up the mountain to chop firewood.

The people of Tongzhou usually burn firewood and never lack coal at the northern end of the canal. However, because the magistrate died of illness, the doctor sent by the Ministry of Revenue was sealed in the city.

The people chopped off all the jujube trees that had been planted in their yard for more than ten years, but they still had no firewood after burning them.

Therefore, I can't drink hot water anymore. Some people are reluctant to burn firewood. They are used to being poor and frugal. They are lucky enough to cook some rice with limited firewood and coal, and then drink raw water.

The government is not good at speaking.

However, Chen Shigong and the medical household team agreed that the well water in the city had been polluted. In fact, there was no evidence. Some people who drank well water in the city were sick and some were not. However, the Eastern military doctors judged the environment first assuming that everything was a source of infection.

Various experiments are also underway. They set up isolation centers outside the city and sent a group of rabbits locked in wooden cages from surrounding counties without epidemics. They were divided into four categories, drinking water from the city, water from the city, water from the city, water from the city, water from the city, and water from the city. They even set up seven observation stations at different distances along the river.

Assuming that the water produced in the city is polluted, the chance of this is very high, then the water produced outside the city and the river water is not safe, and there will be mistakes when the city is closed. What we have to face next is a larger-scale plague.

In addition to precautions, the flag army also called out in the streets, and also taught the professors to make masks and protective equipment. They had to use three layers of cloth to grill and sew toner in the middle of the three layers of cotton. Among them, baked toner was made by the medical and household team outside the city, and the cotton and fabric were searched for by the people themselves. This thing was available at home.

They do everything they can, but they cannot control the consciousness of the people and can only use the means of going door to door to check every other hour.

It is useful and effective to divide the medical household team into two teams due to insufficient protective equipment. A group of people entered the city to check the symptoms to treat the people, while the latter was based on the symptomatic diagnosis and treatment of the former.

Their efficiency is not high, because there is no perfect treatment. Different doctors have different treatment methods for different patients' symptoms. The same symptoms also have different additions and subtractions for different severity. Each person is one prescription. Fortunately, each team of the medical household team is responsible for several patients in a street, so the efficiency of medication is not low.

Even so, drinking raw water is still difficult to solve.

The medical household team was helpless, and in the end, a young doctor under Chen Shigong proposed a "mistakeable trick" to deceive the people.

This crooked trick is to create a kind of all-round way that is actually useless or harmful to deceive the people into drinking hot water.

Chen Shigong felt that this could not be done and had to look for the right medicine. His eyes were searching and staring at isatis root.

This is a symptomatic medicinal herb.

The magistrate's epidemic record says that most patients with plague have cold and fever, red and swollen heads, or throat pain, and then the chills gradually fade away and the fever is increasing, thirst causes drinking, irritability, swelling and swelling of the head and face, throat, intensified swelling and pain in front of the ears, and symptoms such as submandibular neck, and yellow tongue fur.

In the medical community, this is warm and poisonous. Isatis root clears heat and detoxifies. It is easy to teach people to drink water after being mixed with sugar. This is a good way. However, he is afraid that after this, people will treat this medicine as a life-saving straw. When they are idle, they will also drink it as water. It is said that medicine is three parts poisonous. Drinking too much isatis root is not good for the stomach.

There is another advantage of isatis root, which is that it is not difficult to find medicinal materials and is convenient for a large number of preparations.

As soon as the transfer order was released, several trucks were brought from the three subordinate counties that night.

Then it was ground into powder and sugar mixed with sugar. The dosage was extremely small. All the medicines were exhausted. They made thousands of portions overnight and spread them into the city during the day. One portion was made with a large pot of water for the people to boil. They also required that they always be covered with a wooden cover, which was called to prevent the dissipation of the medicinal power, but in fact they were just to avoid the inclusion of mosquitoes.

This is the first time Chen Shigong has tried to prepare a large number of commonly used patent medicines, but this does not mean that no one has tried it in the past.

To find prescriptions to treat bighead plague or other northbound plagues, you have to translate the medical skills of the Yuan Dynasty. It was the most rampant moment of plague. There was a dose of Puji disinfectant drink, which was the common prescription for living people at that time.

Scutellaria baicalensis and coptis chilli are bitter and cold, and relieve heat between the heart and lungs. It is the main thing; orange red, red, bitter and spicy, Scrophularia ginseng is bitter and cold, and produce licorice and sweet and cold, and relieve fire and replenish qi. It is the main thing; forsythia, millet sticky, mint leaves are bitter and spicy, and the roots are bitter and cold, ponytails are bitter and cold, ponytails are bitter and cold, ponytails are bitter and cold, ponytails are bitter and cold, ponytails are bitter and flat, and the swelling and disinfection are used as auxiliary; new Shengma, Bupleurum, bitter and flat, and the two meridians of Shaoyang and Yangming cannot be extended; Platycodon is a pungent and warm boat, and it is not allowed to go down.

A pair of medicine can show the scene of the monarch, minister, assistant, and officials fighting on a boat.

The disadvantage is that most prescriptions are bitter, cold and spicy, and those with yin deficiency cannot use them. This is also something Chen Shigong is worried about isatis root giving to the people, so he has to make a medicine and give it to the people for small doses.

This is the main drug for big head plague. Chen Shigong wanted to make this a common drug to treat patients.

Among the medical households recruited, there was a person named Gong Tingxian. He has been practicing medicine between Yan, Zhao, Liang and Henan for more than ten years. He used rhubarb and tooth soap to make a drug called Ersheng Jiuku Pill, which is specifically used for patients with severe heat evils at the beginning of the plague. This drug is a stranger. It is not like Puji disinfectant drinks that have antibacterial and anti-disease effects. Instead, it uses sweating, vomiting and diarrhea to make patients discharge all the diseases where they get sick.

The doctor's method of practicing medicine is to beat gongs and drums on the street to let the patients come out... Those who are moved out are not good. As long as they can walk out, it means that they are stronger and able to withstand the power of the medicine. The patient sweats as soon as they take it, and heals the disease as soon as they sweat. The people on the street he treated said that they were hit every time.

As for the patients who were carried out and the elderly and weak, he had no unique way. He used ginseng and Baidu Powder to treat mild patients step by step. Basically, the mild symptoms can be cured, but it is not enough. He prepared Burdock Qinlian Decoction, but the patients currently being treated are not yet at the time to use the subsequent medicine.

There is indeed a person in history in Gong Tingxian. In the 14th year of Wanli, there are many people who have been cured of Henan Datou Plague.

He first named "Five Gate" in internal medicine and wrote the first pediatric monograph named after "tuna".
