Chapter 53 Smallpox Virus



Qin Shihuang was speechless.

This is such an important matter, what are these people doing now?

So, the look he gave Wang Jianguo and Zhao Guyu became unfriendly again.

It is because of these two people that Xiao Zhang is so cautious today.

In the past, I would definitely have immediately taught him what smallpox was.

The four people in the supermarket looked at each other for a long time.

Zhang Yuan sighed and broke the silence.

He looked at Wang Jianguo and Zhao Guyu and spoke softly.

"Commander Wang, Professor Zhao, I share your opinion. I also think it's smallpox."

"Smallpox is naturally contagious, so I don't need to explain it much. If we want to help our ancestors now, we may need your help."

Forget it, I'd better take the initiative to ask for help.

Otherwise, I don’t know how long I’ll have to wait for these two people.

When Wang Jianguo heard that Boss Xiao Zhang was asking him and his old friend for help, he knew there was nothing he didn't understand.

It seems that Boss Xiao Zhang agrees to state intervention.

He immediately laughed and said, "No problem. Leave it to me. I'll have the medical supplies delivered tomorrow."

Zhang Yuan was satisfied after receiving Wang Jianguo's reply.

It’s good that he doesn’t have to pay.

Otherwise, he really didn't know how to buy a large amount of medical supplies at one time.

The next moment, Zhang Yuan looked at Qin Shihuang and began to introduce the situation of smallpox to him.

"Grandfather, let me tell you about this disease."

"Based on the symptoms you describe, we believe it's smallpox."

The First Emperor nodded.

He already knew about smallpox from Zhang Yuan's heart and Wang Jianguo's mouth.

Now I want to learn more about this disease.

Zhang Yuan continued, "Grandfather, this disease is very contagious and has a high mortality rate."

"Smallpox is caused by a virus, a pox virus found in animals."

"It is commonly found in the head, neck, wings and other parts of animals, and its shape is like a tumor."

As he spoke, Zhang Yuan invited everyone to sit down and chat.

After everyone sat down, Zhang Yuan opened four pairs of disposable chopsticks.

He handed them to Qin Shihuang, Wang Jianguo and Zhao Guyu one by one.

He picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of braised chicken into the First Emperor's bowl.

The First Emperor was in no mood to eat.

But when he met Zhang Yuan's expectant eyes, he hesitated for a moment and put the chicken in the bowl into his mouth.

Um.

Very delicious.

Zhang Yuan continued speaking only after seeing the First Emperor eat the chicken.

"The incubation period of the smallpox virus is about two weeks. Once infected with smallpox, people will have a high fever, feel weak, nauseous, and have a poor appetite."

"At the same time, red rashes will appear on the face, arms and legs, which will gradually turn into pus and scabs."

The First Emperor frowned and nodded, "That's right, those people of Xisu basically all have the same symptoms. As far as I know, no less than 200 people have died from this smallpox."

Zhang Yuan sighed.

Smallpox.

In ancient times, it was a devastating blow.

[Well, I have to say, Kangxi was truly formidable, a man of destiny! He actually survived smallpox. But, hey... being a pockmarked emperor, well... there are always trade-offs.]

Well, the First Emperor learned the name of a new emperor from Zhang Yuan’s voice.

Kangxi?

How could he survive such a powerful disease?

Destiny?

snort!

Apart from me, who else can be worthy of the four words "destiny".

Zhang Yuan didn't know what Qin Shihuang was thinking, so he began to educate people about the transmission routes of smallpox.

"The smallpox virus is transmitted through saliva and contact, and it is difficult to prevent."

"Generally speaking, when a person infected with smallpox virus coughs or sneezes when interacting with others, saliva will be produced, which can spread the virus."

“Also, any clothing or objects touched by an infected person may be contagious.”

When Qin Shihuang heard this, he took a breath of cold air.

I didn't expect smallpox to be so contagious.

Today, many people in the patrol team have come into contact with these people from Sisu.

Even he and Fusu were no exception.

Does this mean that he and Fusu are also very likely to have been infected with smallpox?

Qin Shi Huang pursed his lips and his eyes turned cold.

No, most of the people in the touring team are his trusted ministers of the Qin Dynasty.

We can't give up here.

"Xiao Zhang, how do we solve this smallpox problem?"

Qin Shihuang asked Zhang Yuan seriously.

A smile appeared on Zhang Yuan's handsome face, a smile full of confidence and pride.

His smile gave Qin Shihuang a shot in the arm.

My mood gradually calmed down and I waited attentively for Zhang Yuan's reply.

As soon as Zhang Yuan opened his mouth, he was full of praise for later generations of medicine.

"Don't worry, ancestor. Smallpox was an incurable disease in ancient times, but it has long been conquered in our later generations! It can be said to be extremely simple!"

At this point, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but mutter a few words: "Ancestors, you just love to kill doctors too much. Otherwise, how could medicine progress so slowly? It should have been solved long ago!"

"You should pay more attention to doctors."

Qin Shi Huang: ....

"I understand. Xiao Zhang, you should talk about the smallpox first."

I feel helpless, really helpless. This Xiao Zhang is good in every way except that he always changes the topic very quickly.

If Zhang Yuan knew what Qin Shihuang was thinking, he would definitely protest.

After all, when it comes to changing the subject, who can compare to the First Emperor?
