Chapter 305 The Origin of the Epidemic
Chapter 305 The Origin of the Epidemic
"Zhang Zhongjing's father, Zhang Zonghan, was a scholar and an official in the imperial court.
Therefore, due to his family conditions, Zhang Zhongjing was exposed to many classics since he was a child.
Mr. Zhang Zhongjing was also very studious since he was young. He could be said to be well-read. While reading, he unknowingly fell in love with medical books.
Especially when Zhang Zhongjing read the story of Bian Que's medical diagnosis of Marquis Huan of Qi in history books, he admired Bian Que's superb medical skills very much.
Therefore, from then on, Zhang Zhongjing developed a strong interest in medicine.
As expected, only when you are interested can you accomplish something. If you want to learn something, you must first like it and be interested in it, otherwise you will just find it boring.
Anyway, this is how it is for Li Wu. Asking her to read medical books full of densely packed words is just a waste of time. It would be better to just kill her.
"That's true. It's very difficult to learn something if you don't like it," Sun Simiao shook his head. Of course, there are geniuses. Even if they don't like something, they can succeed as long as they want to do it. But geniuses are very rare.
There are not so many geniuses in the world. Most people are just ordinary people.
Zhang Zhongjing just smiled and didn't say much. When he was young, he read the history books about Mr. Bian Que and thought he was simply amazing.
Just by looking at it, he knew what disease Duke Huan of Qi was suffering from, so from then on, he secretly vowed in his heart that when he grew up, he would become a great doctor like Bian Que.
Bian Que in front of the sky had a smiling face. He never thought that just by reading his history books, he would become a great doctor. Not bad, does it count as a great deed for him?
The other people in front of the sky curtain could understand it, as some of them were also like this.

Several people nodded in agreement, "But at that time, the imperial court was in turmoil, people's hearts were unstable, peasants and common people were rising up one after another, wars were continuous, in short, there were wars everywhere.
With so many wars, the people who suffered the most were the common people. People everywhere suffered from the disasters of war, and with the spread of various epidemics, many people died.
That was simply a tragedy. I think everyone knows about this epidemic, which often occurs after wars. "
"That's true. Various epidemics often occur after wars. Alas, these epidemics have taken the lives of countless people," Hua Tuo also shook his head. In his time, wars broke out almost every day.
Fortunately, a little immortal appeared, so there were rarely wars where he was. Later, after looking at the world map, there were no more wars. Instead, they united and planned to attack other countries' lands first.
This makes these people happy.
Many people also asked in the barrage why various epidemics appeared after the war. Many people died in the war, and then the epidemic appeared. It was simply a death sentence for people.
After seeing that many people were asking this question, Li Wu decided to explain it.
"Five seniors, many people in the comments just now were asking why there was an epidemic after the war. This is actually very easy to understand."
The five people also nodded. Yes, Zhang Zhongjing, Hua Tuo and Dong Feng nodded repeatedly. During the period they lived in, there were too many epidemics.
"Little Immortal, why is this?" Dong Feng asked.
“First, after a war, countless people will be killed or injured. There will be no one to bury these people, and corpses exposed in the wild will easily breed various bacteria.
Secondly, after they got the disease, they certainly didn’t know about it at first, and because of the war, they needed to escape and run everywhere, so they brought the disease everywhere.
At that time, there was no effective means of protection, and I didn’t even know I was sick.
Therefore, many epidemics will naturally occur," Li Wu shook his head. "If we want to reduce the occurrence of these epidemics, the bodies must be buried in time.
Those who died of the epidemic had to be cremated in time, and the sick people had to be isolated to prevent them from contacting other people.
To sterilize, you can use limestone, vinegar, wine, or fumigation.
The most important thing is to bury the bodies and not expose them to the wild."
The others also nodded. It turned out that the plague was brought by those corpses. They said, how could a plague happen so easily after a war?
Now they know what's going on.
"Thank you, little immortal, we all know what happened now," the five people stood up and bowed to Li Wu to express their gratitude.
"Five seniors, there is no need to do this. Please stand up quickly," Li Wuxukong helped a few people. She couldn't bear so many old seniors bowing to her!
After seeing everyone sitting down, Li Wu continued, "At that time, there were all kinds of natural disasters and man-made disasters, and the people revolted. The government offices at that time were too busy to take care of themselves, and they started wars to fight for power.
Senior Zhang Zhongjing had seen this since he was a child, and because of this he hated officialdom. Whenever he saw the dying people, he felt great pity.
He suddenly had the idea of studying medicine. If he had just read medical books out of interest at the beginning, he would naturally want to save people by studying medicine later.
In the fourth year of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, the ten-year-old Zhang Zhongjing went to study medicine under the doctor Zhang Bozu from the same county.
When people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty heard this, especially the common people, they all posted messages in the barrage to thank Zhang Zhongjing. Zhang Zhongjing saved many people, and they all remembered Zhang Zhongjing's life-saving grace.
As for those who started the war, they just looked at each other.
"At that time, Zhang Bozu was a very famous doctor. He had a calm personality, lived a simple life, and studied medicine diligently. He was very serious every time he treated patients and was very careful when prescribing medicine.
Nine out of ten patients treated by Zhang Bozu can recover.
Therefore, he is highly respected by the people.
Senior Zhang Zhongjing, you were very diligent in learning medicine from Zhang Bozu. Whether you were going up the mountain to collect herbs, going out to diagnose patients, or copying prescriptions and dispensing medicines, you were not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and you were always studying hard.
For this reason, Zhang Bozu liked you as his disciple very much and taught you, Senior Zhang Zhongjing, all the medical skills he had learned throughout his life.
It is your honor to have such a master, Senior Zhang Zhongjing," Li Wu praised. In ancient times, many masters would not teach their apprentices without reservation.
There is an old saying that goes, "If a master teaches his apprentice, he will starve to death", so many people will keep some tricks of their own for their apprentices.
When Zhang Zhongjing heard Li Wu mention his master, he smiled and said, "Master, he is kind-hearted and teaches me with all his heart. Fortunately, I have lived up to his wishes."
They study medicine to cure diseases and save lives.
In front of the sky curtain, Zhang Zhongjing's master Zhang Bozu's eyes were red. This disciple of his had been a smart one since he was young, willing to endure hardships and learn. He liked him the most. Now to hear that he had such achievements, his master was very happy. He was called a miracle doctor by the little immortal, a miracle doctor!
