Ask Sword

In the early morning, Li Ang took a carriage to the prefect's mansion in the city.

Along the way, you can see many more citizens on the street—the effective implementation of the mollusc control plan and the appearance of tartar medicine have brought the whole city back to life, and it is no longer as lifeless as it was when the water poison was flooding before.

The citizens sitting at the food stalls were talking about the strange loud noise that resounded through the city of Suzhou last night.

It is said that the sound was made by the Taihu God. The God of the Lake took pity on the people in the south of the Yangtze River and used his magic power to fight against the God of Plague.

It is said that the noise was made by plague ghosts. Plague Ghost has practiced under the lake for thousands of years, and was about to transform into a ghost fairy, but was stopped by the Heavenly Tribulation. The white light that filled the sky last night was the aftermath of the battle.

It is said that the sound comes from the mythical Zhenze Kui Niu.

The most outrageous thing is that some fishermen salvaged a one-eyed man from the bottom of the lake, and made some kind of ominous prophecy

The more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes. Mo Daoshi has one eye, so it will be reversed once this thing comes out of the world, right?

Li Ang smiled and shook his head. The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the people in the south of the Yangtze River are more casual when discussing government affairs.

Squeak.

The carriage stopped in front of the prefect's mansion, Li Ang followed the leading soldiers, and saw Li Shan, Shen Tuyu and Tantai Leshan.

"Tantai Siye?"

Li Ang was astonished, or pretended to be astonished, "Why are you here?"

Tantai Leshan smiled slightly, flicked his fingers slightly, released the sound insulation technique, and said: "I am here to assist in escorting the prisoners."

Li Ang asked in surprise, "Prisoner?"

"Last night, the deputy commander of the Zhenfu Division and I captured a Zhuxiao Realm Gu Master from the Western Kingdom in Taihu Lake, named Situ Zhi."

Shen Tuyu took out a large stack of files and put them on the table, and said: "As far as is known, he caused more than fifteen large-scale epidemics in many countries, with millions of victims.

The water poisoning of Taihu Lake this time was also his handwriting. "

Li Ang and King of Light Li Shan picked up the files on the table and started to read them.

Secrets that are not secrets,

The spies of the Zhenfu Division are all over the world, and they will record files for most of the monks with names and surnames.

The higher the cultivation level, the more hostile to the Yu country, and the more flamboyant the monk's behavior style, the thicker the file.

As a Gu master, Situ Zhi's file is as thick as a brick, it is completely conceivable that Zhenfu Si hates him.

Shen Tuyu said: "After interrogation, it has been confirmed that without Situ Zhi's promotion, the water poisonous Gu will weaken. Maybe it only needs to do a good job of killing snails in one or two years, and the water poisoning epidemic will dissipate."

"Yes, that would be great!"

Li Shan's spirit was shaken. During this period of time, he took the lead and presided over the anti-gu and snail control, which can be said to be physically and mentally exhausting.

Moreover, as the King of Light and the inspector, he is very clear about the logic of the court of Yu State - if the water poison cannot be completely eradicated, then the court will not be able to continue to invest a large amount of material and financial resources in it, and will only gradually reduce the investment, and try to Reduce losses.

And if there is hope for the eradication of water poisoning, then the imperial court is still willing to support it.

"in addition."

Shen Tuyu paused and said, "Situ Zhi has been in Yu State for a long time. He was able to avoid being caught for such a long time because he was driving cautiously. It is also possible that someone secretly helped him hide his whereabouts."

"He has an accomplice?" Li Shan asked with a frown.

"might have."

Shen Tuyu said vaguely: "Anyway, more inside stories are still under investigation.

Besides Shen Tuyu and his accomplices, there may be another force——Situ Zhi, who was first discovered by me or the people from the Zhenfu Department last night,

It was the sound that some other monk made when he was fighting Situ Zhi, which spread to Suzhou City.

Situ Zhi is a Gu master at the Candle Sky Realm, so he can be his opponent, and that unknown monk at least has a cultivation level at the Cloud Patrol Realm.

His Highness King Guang, Mr. Li Xiaolang, it is best not to leave Suzhou City in the near future. In addition, the news about Situ Zhi is still classified for the time being, and it is best not to disclose it to the outside world. "

"clear."

Li Ang nodded, turned and left the prefect's mansion, heaving a sigh of relief in his heart.

Mosi's concealment is still reliable. Last night Zhen Fusi searched around Taihu Lake several times, but couldn't find Mosi's aura track, so he had to give up.

However, the disciple next to Situ Zhi ran away, and I don't know if he can be arrested and brought to justice.

In addition, Situ Zhi is from Zhaoming. He was captured and interrogated by the Zhenfu Department, and he was sure to find out something.

At that time, it will be the Zhenfu Division and Xuegong who will first target Zhaoming,

Or did the other party sense the danger and act first?

Li Ang took a silent breath, and the sense of urgency in his heart became stronger.

Even among the many paths in the Candle Sky Realm, the Gu Master who is the least good at fighting is still crushing the monks below the Candle Sky Realm.

Sure enough, you must have enough strength to protect yourself.

Li Ang took the carriage back to the still noisy and busy ward, found Qiu Feng, and revealed some information that could be said.

"Will the water poisoning epidemic ease in the coming year?"

Qiu Feng's eyes widened subconsciously, and he immediately realized that his voice was too loud, so he quickly lowered his voice, "How much will it be reduced?"

"It's hard to say, it should reduce the number of patients by at least 50 to 60 percent."

Li Ang also couldn't estimate the effect of the so-called Gu demon, so he roughly gave a figure, "Give me the medical records of the critically ill patients who came to the ward during this period, and I'll do the math."

Qiu Feng immediately took down a large box of materials from the cabinet. Li Ang flipped through the medical records, and based on the map of the Taihu Lake water system, estimated the number of future patients in each area, the difficulty of control, etc.,

And calculate if there are no new cases of schistosomiasis in the future, with the current treatment speed of the ward, how long it will take to clear the cases.

"With the current support provided by the imperial court, if there are no new cases of schistosomiasis, it will take two years to clear the cases.

If there are a small number of new cases of schistosomiasis, it takes four years.

If there are new cases and the imperial government reduces its support, it will take about ten years to clear the cases according to Suzhou itself. "

The result of the calculation made Li Ang heave a sigh of relief. Qiu Feng glanced at the serious expression on his face and said softly, "Ten years is already a long time to eradicate the disease."

"Not fast enough."

Li Ang shook his head. Potassium antimony tartrate is difficult to completely remove the schistosomiasis in the human body, and it still needs monks to use the method of enucleation to eradicate it.

The limited number of monks means that patients need to wait in line for eradication opportunities,

During this process, potassium antimony tartrate will still cause great damage to the patient's body.

Li Ang knew that without him, schistosomiasis would most likely be a terminal illness. He had tried his best, but he couldn't help but wonder if there was a better way

Qiu Feng hesitated for a moment, "Maybe we can try other medicines? There is a saying in medical theory, maybe using tartaric medicine, plus some other medicine, can reduce its harm to the human body while ensuring the efficacy of the medicine. Harm."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Li Ang shook his head, antimony's schistosome medicine must be toxic,

Schistosoma drugs other than antimony agents include praziquantel, thiocyanamide, oxaniquine, niridazole, etc. The difficulty of synthesis of each is higher than that of antimony potassium tartrate

"etc,"

Li Ang suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up, "Maybe... you can try that."
