Chapter 174 173. Characteristics of Ghost Orchid Bacteria
Huaiyu and Uncle Zaozi were sitting on the bench in the corridor of the emergency room.
This was her first time here. She was tired and sad at the moment, so she had to walk around trying to divert her attention.
Uncle Zaozi is also weak. He is already this age, how can his energy be compared with that of young people? Even he has been doing hard manual labor today!
I couldn't sit still at this moment, so I turned around and went to the nurse's station in the lobby. In the empty and quiet hospital lobby, I could vaguely hear him pestering the nurse for a cyclamate comfort candy...
Huaiyu looked at the backpack and saw that there were no cups and no food. Only the eldest cub and the second cub were left running around all the way. Now they were lying in it dizzy, half asleep.
She sighed, picked up the backpack and decided to take it to Zhou Qian's ward, but as soon as she moved her steps, she vaguely remembered that it was early morning.
Forget it, just wait.
She sat on the bench in the corridor and looked up at the posters posted on the wall. There were exquisite pictures and explanations on the harm of various animals and plants. Huaiyu looked at them carefully and slowly I also learned a lot of new knowledge.
Until——
"What is this?"
She moved closer to the poster.
But Uncle Zaozi finally managed to get a piece of candy by virtue of his thick skin. He was reluctant to give it to Huaiyu, and now it was already in his mouth.
Looking at her at this moment, I felt a little guilty, so I hurriedly stepped forward:
"I know, I know! Although this picture is blurred with red, it is not intentional. pictures, but the complete specimen has not yet been received.”
"That's it, the highly toxic ghost orchid fungus. It is a fungus associated with an orchid in the wilderness. Once it comes into contact with the skin, it will quickly become parasitic."
Uncle Zaozi shook: "This is the most parasitic species. It's disgusting. Weak ones can be expelled after they become parasitized - the hospital has various repellents."
"But if they are strong, they can only use different methods to restrain their habits, and then. Forced peeling. If you can’t peel it off completely, you will be unable to do without the repellent for the rest of your life.”
Uncle Zaozi sighed, “The repellent is so expensive!”
But everyone still has to bite the bullet - because medical progress is also very fast now. Maybe if we persist a little longer, we will be able to wait. ”
"This ghost orchid fungus is the most annoying. It is not only parasitic, but also highly toxic, and has a tropism for the brain... No matter where the spores infect, the ultimate target is the brain."
"And currently we can only do It can’t be solved by expelling it in a short period of time and maintaining a clear mind.”
“There are not even specimens! Because the ghost orchid bacteria cannot see the light! Once it is separated from the parasite, it will die... In short, this thing is really troublesome.”
“So, it’s not that the hospital deliberately didn’t provide pictures during the popularization. It’s true that they didn’t have any pictures of this red lump. It seemed like it was taken in the medical warehouse. Come down.”
……
In the hospital, Fanta's naked body was quickly sutured and cleaned on the biological extension operating table, and the person was also sent to the medical warehouse for repair.
In the operating room, a group of doctors surrounded the small black biological box in the middle, their eyes shining brightly.
But before the light was released, they took a closer look at the temporarily blackened biological box and confirmed again: "There is no light, right?"
"No, no!" the nurse said. God swears: "Set the dark mode directly, and wrap it in two layers just in case. I cut the sticky blackout cloth from the curtain."
Now this dark box is not connected With certain instruments, they can't actually see anything.
But everyone is still surrounding it, with their eyes full of pride!
"The only one in the world! Live! Ghost Orchid! Hahaha, it belongs to our Huacheng Hospital!" "Low-key, low-key! Have you contacted the director? We have to pry it from the Imperial Capital. A few good instruments are enough!”
“That’s it! We have only three medical warehouses in this big hospital... How can we get ten of them this time?”
"As the quantity increases, the price will drop. Now I don’t dare to open this instrument easily... But the young man in front of me helped us successfully obtain the specimen. I will apply later to have his treatment fee reduced. .”
Everyone nodded.
Compared with the good things in front of me, what is the mere cost of treatment?
"Wait a minute, I remember that four people were sent in at the same time - which emergency rooms are the remaining three in?"
"Quick, quick, quick! What if it's also Phantom Orchid? What?”
“Yes, yes, hurry up and watch!”
"This patient looks young, so he should be in good physical condition, right? When will he wake up? Why on earth is this ghost orchid bacteria gathering in the stomach?"
"Yes, but Didn't he test it when his stomach was opened? "
"There must be a reason. Did he eat something to suppress the ghost orchid bacteria?"
" Ask them when they wake up - this way, Xiao Qin, you can record it."
"After the patient wakes up, if we can provide any useful clues, we will apply for the medical expenses of these four people together. Reduced.”
"It's possible, but I think it's hard to get the answer. After all, after the ghost orchid bacteria invades, people will immediately fall into a coma, without water or rice..."
"I guess it's not eating. Unfortunately, there are still people with special powers who happen to be able to restrain it. "
"Then you have to ask about the specific direction of the superpower! In short, be nice and ask clearly."
< br>“——I asked clearly, the remaining three companions are in emergency rooms 3, 5, and 6!”
“But there is no one in room 6, and the one with the mildest symptoms has been sent to the hospital after basic repairs. The ward——”
"It was an ordinary massive hemorrhage in the abdomen. It is said that he was stabbed directly by a mutant plant in the wasteland. But because he had wood-type powers, he kept the broken branches of the mutant plant in his body, barely slowing down the blood loss, and then he managed to hold on... ..."
"Yes, not bad." The doctors praised him repeatedly: "He learned the first aid knowledge well - is he awake?"
"No, he is receiving blood transfusion. The power is overdrawn and it will take a long time to repair. "
"There are two other people. The female patient has nerve necrosis in her left arm and her power is exhausted. She illegally took the power explosion potion... The inside of her body is currently riddled with holes. After the basic cleaning, he will be sent to the medical warehouse soon."
"Another male patient had two broken ribs and a ruptured spleen. It was suspected that he was beaten by gravity...the broken ribs were inserted. If the internal organs were not destroyed, none of these people would be able to survive if it weren’t for their strong bodies after gaining superpowers.”
The doctors were in a hurry, striding forward while listening to the reports from the assistants beside them.
At this moment, I just turned my head and asked the most critical question:
"Then there is no ghost orchid in their bodies?"
"No." The assistant shook his head:
"Ghost Orchid is a single parasite. It will not choose other targets until the parasite is dead. So..."
But although the doctors sighed, they didn't feel sorry. They just waved their hands again:
"Forget it, let's give them the medical warehouse."
Update 2, next door. It will be updated at half past one, so don’t wait.
