Although Sun Tu had no medical skills, he was right this time. The disease suffered by the people in the two villages outside Dingzhou City was really just influenza, which was regarded as a common ailment in later generations.
For people a thousand years from now, influenza is of course nothing to worry about. If you are in good health, you can take some medicine and carry it and it will be over. For the elderly and children who are weak, you only need to go to the hospital to hang a hanging bottle or something. Complete recovery can be achieved within three to five days, or no more than a week at most. So when making this judgment, Sun Tu really couldn't understand why this minor illness could make both King Yue and Yue Sangwa helpless.
But he obviously ignored the differences in many things over the span of a thousand years, which is a huge difference in medicine. What may seem like the most common ailment to people a thousand years later was a catastrophic terminal illness to people a thousand years ago.
For example, this flu, because medicine at this time cannot cure it quickly, and it spreads very quickly, it has always been a difficult and complicated disease that gives people a headache. Especially when the virus mutates again and turns a small cold into trachea or bronchitis, the situation becomes more serious. Once the virus worsens and becomes a serious disease like tuberculosis, the patient will have no choice but to wait for death, because it is simply impossible to cure such symptoms with the current medical conditions.
In fact, not only a thousand years ago, but also a thousand years later, around the middle of the 20th century, tuberculosis was equivalent to a terminal illness for Chinese people...
After following Sun Tu's wishes and placing the patients in various houses, and opening and closing the windows to maintain ventilation, the other villagers and doctors turned their attention to him again to see what arrangements he would make next. . Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Sun Tu could only go to a patient and ask about the patient's condition. At the same time, he reflected his lack of medical knowledge one by one for final comparison and confirmation. Is it really a cold disease like the flu
After asking everything, Sun Tu felt a little confident, and then said: "I understand, I will prepare some medicine first, and let people take it later to see the effect."
"Dr. Sun, are you being too hasty in doing this? We practice medicine and we pay attention to seeing, hearing, and asking carefully. You neither diagnose the pulse nor carefully check the patient's physical symptoms. What if your diagnosis is wrong?" One of the doctors immediately asked. asked with some suspicion.
Indeed, Sun Tu's treatment methods were so different from those of other doctors. This not only made several doctors suspicious, but also the patient was a little vague. But at this time, Sun Tu couldn't come up with any decent arguments to refute these people, so he could only say with a straight face: "The medicine I learned is very different from yours, so naturally I won't be as knowledgeable as you. As for whether I can cure these patients, it will only be judged by the results. If I don't have such ability, why would King Yue and Master Jiesang invite me to come?"
These words immediately left everyone speechless, and they immediately went to ask Jiesang Wax, who was also busy taking care of other patients. In this regard, Master Jie Sang trusted Sun Tu very much: "Since Donor Sun has his own method, we should trust him. If something goes wrong, the free monk will be responsible."
With Master Jie Sang's guarantee, no one dared to question or object, and Sun Tu also took the opportunity to claim that the prescription was from his ancestors.
On the grounds that it could not be leaked, everyone was locked outside the room filled with various herbs, and then quickly entered the system world of the Jiezhong Realm.
After not logging into the system for many days, when he stepped in again, he heard the familiar prompt sound of opening many more warehouses. Nowadays, with the increasing status, even after he has gained a certain reputation in Xixia, the number of warehouses he can enter is also increasing, and it has reached as many as fifty or sixty. However, the variety of things inside has not increased. It is still mainly food and a large number of fireworks. Even the medicines he wants to use today have not been prescribed. This makes Sun Tuyue more and more aware that the system is cheating, but there is nothing he can do about it.
Today, he did not go to the newly opened warehouse to see if there were any surprises. He went directly to the infirmary. After some searching, he found a lot of cold medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine. Finally, in On the bottom of a certain medicine cabinet, he actually found a small box of Remifen, which is isoniazid!
This was a specific medicine used to treat tuberculosis in later generations. When this medicine came out, tuberculosis, which was once regarded as a terminal disease by the world, was no longer a scourge. Unexpectedly, this medicine was hidden in this small infirmary. Sun Tu was not polite and immediately searched and took away all the medicines. In a flash, he returned to the room full of strong herbal smell.
Just looking at the colorful packaging of these cold medicines, Sun Tu still felt a little headache. He could only unpack them one by one, then took the porcelain bottles and put the medicines into them. After finishing all this, the sky had already darkened.
Those doctors didn't know what kind of medicine Sun Tu was tinkering with in the house. They didn't see any movement, and they didn't smell the fragrance of the decoction. This made them more and more confused. If it weren't for the fact that Sun Tu was recommended by Master Jiesang Come here, these people will rush in directly to see what's going on.
Just when everyone was a little impatient, the door finally opened, and Sun Tu also walked out holding a bunch of bottles with a careful look on his face: "I have prepared all the medicines. Next, let the patients take some first." Let’s see the effect.”
As he spoke, he ignored the doubtful glances from everyone, and went to the patient he had just seen, handed him a white cold medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine to swallow, and then told him to have a good night's rest. , and left immediately.
But when they saw that Sun Tu was giving the patient only pills, and pills with strange shapes and colors, the doctors said some strange things behind their backs. But Sun Tu didn't bother to explain to them at this time. He was not here to popularize medical knowledge, so he immediately went to the next patient's residence.
It wasn't until he saw that he was giving the same pills to five or six patients in a row that a doctor finally couldn't help it anymore: "Dr. Sun, I have never seen you use medicine like this before! Normally speaking, I can't bear it anymore." Shouldn't the drugs be increased or decreased according to the patient's condition? Why do you actually use the same drugs to treat patients? Aren't you afraid of making mistakes? "
"I have my own discretion on this. As I said, this is a medicine passed down from my ancestors, and it has its own effects." Sun Tu could only explain in a tough way. But this time, several doctors finally couldn't bear it anymore and blocked his way: "No, we will never let you do this."
This is nonsense! If you put someone to death, not only will you have to bear the blame, but we will also be held responsible! Master, at least until we are convinced that the medicine he uses is effective, others can no longer take his medicine! "
This time, the attitudes of the doctors were extremely resolute, and even Jie Sangwa lost face. Although the guru said that if something happened, he would bear the responsibility, but these people also knew that it was just talk. Even if the patients in the two villages really died, no one would dare to blame him as the guru. On the other hand, young men like them who have no foundation can immediately become scapegoats, and the end will be miserable. This is related to their own life and death, so they will naturally not give in!
Sun Tu glanced at Jie Sangwa and saw a troubled expression on his face, so he knew what he was thinking, so he nodded and said: "Since you insist, let's see how these people are doing tomorrow before making a decision. But I There is also a medicine here that can cure people who are terminally ill and dying, would you like to let me try it?"
These words made all the doctors feel a little excited again. Now there is really a seriously ill person in the village here who seems to be hopeless and will definitely die within two or three days. So after some hesitation, they finally nodded: "Okay, let the patient take the medicine. If he can get better, then from now on you will be in charge of medical treatment in these two villages!" "
The reason why they agreed so happily was because they believed that this was impossible. These doctors are also knowledgeable people and have seen many patients with similar diseases die in pain. Even if they tried all kinds of methods and medicines, it still didn't help. Naturally, he doesn't believe that Sun Tu can come up with a medicine that can save the other party. Unless it is an elixir, otherwise he can only ask King Yama to show his favor.
Sun Tu just smiled and followed them to the most remote house in front. Before he entered the door, he heard a heartbreaking cough coming from inside. When I walked into the house, I saw a skinny man lying on the kang. Although his body was still shaking due to the cold, his cheeks were flushed and there was even a small drop of sweat on his forehead. .
Seeing the doctors coming over, this one opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he couldn't spit out a single word. There was a snoring sound coming from his throat from time to time, and it seemed that it was difficult to breathe...
Seeing this symptom, Master Jie Sang compassionately pronounced the name of the Buddha, and then looked at Sun Tu: "Donor Sun, are you really sure you can cure him?"
"Well... I can only do my best." Sun Tu didn't dare to brag this time. After all, although isoniazid is a specific drug, it can only treat early and middle-stage tuberculosis. If it reaches the advanced stage, or more If some complications occur, there is really no way to treat it.
Although he said this, Sun Tu stepped forward and took out the pills and asked the man to swallow them with water, and then asked him to take cold and anti-inflammatory drugs. I don't know if it was due to psychological effects, but after taking the medicine, the patient's condition actually stabilized a lot, and he fell into a deep sleep soon.
Seeing this, the faces of the doctors also changed, and they finally began to have some confidence in Sun Tu's medicine. Of course, we have to wait until tomorrow or even a few days to find out whether these medicines are effective or not!
