"Second brother-in-law, do you think this man has smallpox? Can it be cured?"
Wu Wang Zhu Ju looked at Mei Yin and asked.
When he asked this question, his eyes were full of hope.
At the same time, there was some anxiety inside.
He knew very well whether smallpox could be cured.
There is no cure for this thing!
After you get it, whether you can survive or not depends entirely on whether your fate is tough or not.
If you can survive it, you can survive; if you can't, you will die.
There is simply no better way to treat smallpox.
This is something that ordinary people know.
Not to mention someone like him who is quite knowledgeable in medicine.
But he still looked at Mei Yin and asked such a question.
There is no other reason than that smallpox killed too many people today.
It caused countless people to lose their homes and their families.
Mei Yin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard what King Wu Zhu Zhu asked.
Obviously, he didn't expect that Zhu Rui would ask such a question at this time.
Originally, he thought that he was giving the basic medical knowledge he had acquired to his fifth brother Zhu Ru.
After Fifth Brother has conducted such research, he will definitely have many related questions to ask himself.
But no matter how he thought about it, he never expected that after such painstaking study, the first thing he asked when he looked at himself was this!
This made Mei Yin surprised and a little regretful at the same time.
Why had I forgotten about smallpox before this?
Although smallpox had been eradicated by the time he lived.
But now in the Hongwu Dynasty, smallpox still exists, and it has reached the point where it leads countless people to talk about it and their expressions change.
It truly destroyed countless people.
However, I can't blame myself for this.
After coming here, there are really too many things.
All kinds of things need to be done.
Today's Ming Dynasty has too many things that need improvement.
It is inevitable that some things will not be taken care of
Fortunately, at this time, Fifth Brother mentioned this matter.
Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take before I can think of it.
Immediately he said: "Fifth brother, why do you suddenly think of asking this?"
Mei Yin did seem a little curious about this.
After all, the book he gave to his fifth brother Zhu Ru did not mention the smallpox incident.
As a result, now, after looking at what he had given him, the first thing he asked was about smallpox.
Zhu Rui's voice seemed to have changed a bit, becoming heavier.
"Smallpox is a devil!
Harmful to countless people!
I don’t know how many people were killed and how many families were destroyed.
Every year, many people die from smallpox...
I heard that smallpox appeared recently in Shaanxi and Luo.
In order to contain smallpox, the local government directly sealed off several villages where smallpox occurred.
No one is allowed to enter or leave.
Regardless of whether you are sick or not, you must stay inside..."
When he said this, his expression looked very different.
With great sadness.
He knew that this was the most effective way to deal with smallpox.
Smallpox is too violent and there is no cure.
The best way to prevent smallpox from harming people is to block the places where smallpox occurs.
Keep it isolated from the rest of the world.
Let the people there fend for themselves.
Wait until all the people inside who have smallpox die, and it becomes a ghostland...
Only those who got smallpox and survived.
This is the end of smallpox...
"...I know, this is the best way.
But...but doing so would be too cruel.
So... So I was thinking that there are many other diseases that can be cured by medicine.
Is there a cure for smallpox?
If this is the case, smallpox will appear again in some places.
People who have contracted smallpox can't be allowed to wait there to die.
Give them some hope..."
After listening to the words of Wu King Zhu Ru, Mei Yin understood why his fifth brother asked him about smallpox without any warning at this time.
Fifth brother is indeed a kind-hearted doctor!
The things I consider are different from those of many people.
At the same time, from Fifth Brother's words, Mei Yin could also understand more deeply how much difficulty smallpox had brought to people in this era.
How much fear there is.
After getting sick, there is no cure and all we can do is wait for death.
Whether you can survive or not depends on your life...
Especially those who are not sick at first can only stay with those who are sick and wait quietly for death.
How desperate this situation must be...
Mei Yin was a little silent for a while
Mei Yin was silent when she saw him.
Wu King Zhu Ju, who originally had some hopes, his heart quickly sank.
As expected, I still thought too much about this matter.
There has been no cure for smallpox since ancient times. How could the second brother-in-law be able to do anything?
What I asked was really too much to ask.
He was about to say something to clear up the matter.
Ask your second brother-in-law not to be embarrassed.
Mei Yin's voice sounded first.
"Fifth Brother, I have smallpox, and I really have no way to cure it."
Hearing Mei Yin's words, Zhu Tong was not surprised at all.
After all, if smallpox could be eliminated so easily, it would not have been able to exist for so long.
He also caused countless people to die for him...
"Second brother-in-law, it's normal that you don't know this..."
Zhu Ru was about to speak to comfort Mei Yin.
However, as soon as he said this, he suddenly stopped talking.
Because Mei Yin's next words have already been spoken.
"However, I do have some ideas here that may prevent it.
That is to say, it can prevent people from getting smallpox in the future. ”
"What?!"
This turning point is a huge joy for Zhu Rui!
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Then he jumped up from his seat.
He came to Mei Yin in two or three steps.
He looked extremely excited.
"Second brother-in-law, you...what did you say?
You...everything you said...is true? ! ”
Because he was too excited, Zhu Rui seemed to stutter a little at this time.
Although Mei Yin said it cannot be cured.
But it is also extremely gratifying to prevent people from getting smallpox.
Seriously speaking, this is the most brilliant way to treat diseases.
The most brilliant treatment is not to cure people who are already sick.
Rather, it directly prevents people from getting sick.
As the saying goes, it is best not to treat the disease before it occurs, but to treat it before it occurs and nip it in the bud.
What the second brother-in-law just said is equivalent to saying that smallpox can be solved directly from the root cause! !
"Really!"
Mei Yin looked at the excited look of his fifth brother, Zhu Ru, and felt a little emotional in his heart, but without any hesitation.
He nodded vigorously and responded affirmatively to this matter.
"Then... what is the solution?"
Zhu Ru couldn't wait to ask.
At the same time, he stared at Mei Yin without blinking.
It seems that he is particularly worried that if he blinks, he will miss some particularly important news. Han Cheng said: "Fifth brother, this is just a guess of mine.
I have made special observations about smallpox before.
I also learned a lot about smallpox.
Through these, I saw certain patterns.
I know that smallpox is really serious. After getting smallpox, whether you live or die depends on your fate.
However, I discovered a very strange thing.
That is, not everyone gets smallpox.
Some people experienced smallpox many times and nothing happened.
And not everyone who gets smallpox will die.
Most people don't get through it.
But there are also many people who survive smallpox.
Both those who did not get smallpox and those who got it and survived without dying.
In the future, we will never get smallpox again.
So I was wondering why there is such a difference.
Is it possible to pass it and study those who do not know smallpox, or people who do not die after getting smallpox and will not get smallpox again in the future.
So as to find some solutions to smallpox?
I conducted some research and comparison on this through some records and other methods.
I discovered certain rules.
That is, people living in towns are more likely to get smallpox and there are more people.
The proportion is also large.
The proportion of people in rural areas getting smallpox is smaller...
Then he gained a detailed understanding of many people who suffered from smallpox.
I found that these people all have one thing in common.
That is, most of them are people who often come into contact with cattle.
Some feed cattle regularly;
Some people plow the fields with oxen...
So, I was just thinking.
Could the reason why they were immune to smallpox have something to do with cattle?
At the same time, combined with this, after a person recovers from smallpox, he will never get smallpox again in the future.
I made another deduction.
Those who never got smallpox didn't mean they were special.
It's because they first contracted some disease similar to that of smallpox.
It got better before I knew it.
That's why you get the corresponding ability.
This disease is not acquired from humans.
But it is obtained from cows through frequent contact with cows.
This disease will not have a particularly big impact on people.
But through this method, people can get the benefits of preventing smallpox.
So, I was just thinking.
Is it in the future to clarify the relationship between this?
You can let people take the initiative to catch the disease of cattle first.
Gain abilities that you will never have in the future? ”
Mei Yin appeared to be a little slow and said these words to Wu King Zhu Ju.
The reason why I speak slowly.
It's because he needs to try his best to make up the matter as completely as possible while talking.
Vaccination against smallpox.
It is not a secret to future generations.
After all, smallpox is a disease that makes countless people angry after hearing about it.
Compared with other viruses, it is the most frustrating.
The ones behind were wiped out abruptly.
The method used is to vaccinate against cowpox.
In later generations, some were specially preserved for research in some laboratories.
The smallpox virus is truly gone.
The effectiveness of using cowpox to prevent smallpox could not be better.
However, this was a common sense thing in later generations, but in this era, it seems extremely abrupt.
Therefore, Mei Yin needs to find some reasons to make this matter as understandable as possible.
Give a more reasonable explanation.
Don't let yourself think about not appearing too special.
The King of Wu, Zhu Rui, next to him, had bright eyes at this time.
Looking at Mei Yin, I felt like I was looking at a god.
He got too many things from the methods his second brother-in-law said.
Not only did we get an important way to prevent smallpox from here.
Moreover, he also gained a brand-new way of treating diseases and saving lives.
It turns out that we can also conduct various analyzes and judgments on a large number of sick people to infer some corresponding connections between these survivors.
And finally set the target on the cow.
We came to this conclusion!
Awesome!
It’s simply amazing!
Ruofei's second brother-in-law mentioned that no matter what he thought, and spent his whole life and brainstorming, there was absolutely no way he could connect cows with the treatment of smallpox!
Before that, if someone had told him directly that cow diseases might be used to prevent and cure smallpox,
Then he will definitely feel that this is nonsense.
After all, this sounds unreliable, unheard of, and unseen.
But at this time, after listening to the inference made by his second brother-in-law.
But he felt that he could really give the method mentioned by his second brother-in-law a try.
Pretty reliable.
Although he hasn't really started to take action yet, he feels that this matter is at least 80% done.
"Second brother-in-law, amazing!
You are truly a god! ! ”
He quickly remembered what Mei Yin said to him firmly in his heart.
Looking at Mei Yin, he kept praising her here.
With full excitement and endless admiration.
Mei Yin smiled and shook his head when he heard this: "Fifth brother, these are just certain conjectures on my part.
I haven't tested it yet, so I don't know if it is correct.
Next, let’s verify whether my conjecture is correct.
We still need you, Fifth Brother, to do this and figure out what kind of disease in cattle can have such an effect.
I think it is very likely that the kind that is similar to smallpox will have a similar effect..."
In order to allow Fifth Brother and the others to try their best to avoid detours in this matter.
Mei Yin gave various prompts.
It is almost necessary to make it clear that this thing is cowpox.
"No, second brother-in-law, you are the one who has done the most good in this matter.
If this thing can eventually be proven to be true.
Second brother-in-law, your merits are immeasurable!
Enjoy countless people’s incense offerings! ”
Wu King Zhu Ju looked at Mei Yin and said this very seriously...
……
Soon, Zhu Ru left from Shuangshui Village.
I was walking very anxiously.
As soon as I saw it, I couldn’t wait to go and verify this...
……
"Father, I have great news here!"
Here in Wuying Hall, Zhu Yu, who came back, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said excitedly.
There is a big difference between him and his usual introverted behavior.
"What good news?"
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head.
Seems a little curious.
"Smallpox can probably be solved!"
"What?!"
