Chapter 22 The Plague
"...The Master said: "If you are better than literature, you will be wild; if you are better than literature, you will be historical; if you are more elegant, you will be gentlemen. How should this history be explained?"
"This is today's homework. After you go back, you will think about it very much. You will reply to me tomorrow. The get out of class will be over."
On the podium, the teacher arranged the topic and left the classroom.
The students below also stood up, stretched their arms, and sat relaxed for a day.
Wu Mian was the same. After stretching, he wanted to leave the classroom, but Changsun Quan, who was sitting next to him, called him.
"Amian, how do you think this history should be explained?"
"What's the difficulty of this? It's just about concealing and decoration. Brother Quan, let's forget about me, sir, you've passed me too."
After more than ten days of getting along, Wu Mian and the people in the class got along and shouted their nicknames.
Changsun Quan smiled and said, "Sir, just explaining this way, will you not be satisfied. You should explain more thoroughly."
"How do Brother Quan thinks it should be explained?"
"As far as I can tell, most scholars nowadays have literary quality. You and I are the same now."
Changsun Quan carried his hands on his back, raised his neck slightly, and recited a poem:
"The complexity of words and words is beyond the original meaning, so it is history. It is like those of the Nancheng School who talk about great benevolence and righteousness, morality and laws all day long. The school talks loudly, and is always unrealistic and has little achievements. It is history. Those Taoist monks praised the Buddha's Heavenly Venerable to know everything and do everything, which is also history."
"The original meaning of history is that the officials who recorded history faithfully recorded history by ancient people, but history is recorded by people in the end, and there are bound to be deviations, so there is a tendency to be excessive in writing and not in line with reality."
"After a circle, isn't that meant to conceal decorative ornamental?" Wu Mian rolled his eyes.
"No, there is still a difference here." Changsun Quan shook his head, looking like you didn't understand, "Do you think some people look gentle and kind? But there is a different purpose behind it, and this purpose is to make people do things that are good for him and bad for others. This is the best way to be a good person!"
What is this guy saying!
Wu Mian couldn't help but have a headache. He didn't want to pursue the truth in a word. For him, as long as he understands the meaning of the scriptures and has no big mistakes.
Changsun Quan lost his book bag. Although he is still good to people, he will go up to help anyone with any problem, but he also likes to be stubborn and silly.
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Quan is right!"
"you……"
"Okay, Brother Quan, don't worry about writing." Zhou Yu smiled and relieved Wu Mian: "Mian's explanation is correct in this sentence. Let's go to the cafeteria early. If you go late, you'll be afraid that there will be only leftovers."
Zhou Yu is also a disciple of the Yongjia School who has just entered school this year. He is also a native of Changshang, and also sits next to Wu Mian.
Seeing Zhou Yu say this, Changsun Quan's stomach also started to roar at the right time. He could only swallow his saliva and sighed: "Forget it, if you don't study it, don't regret it if you don't study it.
Wu Mian and Zhou Yu looked at each other and smiled.
Then the three of them walked towards the canteen.
The three of them sat close to each other and lived close to each other. Changsun Quan was in 141 and Zhou Yu was in 146, and they were in the same row, so they usually walked together.
On the way, Zhou Yu suddenly asked, "Brother Mian, how many generations of your family have been doctors, do you know those good ways to deal with the plague?"
"Plague? Why did you suddenly ask this?" Wu Mian looked at Zhou Yu in confusion, and the same was true for Changsun Quan.
Zhou Yu's face was a little serious: "The family asked someone to send a letter in the morning, saying that there were several villages around Changshang that had a plague and many people died."
Wu Mian's face also became serious in an instant: "Plague? Do you know what the symptoms are? But wind evil and typhoid fever? Can the government quarantine be carried out?"
It is February and March, and the weather is warming up. It is the season for some pathogenic bacteria to reproduce. If you are not careful, you will suffer from colds and other diseases. However, if someone suffers from influenza, in this ancient world, there are no antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs, and it is difficult to deal with fevers such as influenza. If one is treated improperly and spreads, it is a plague!
It is said that during the fourth generation of Emperor Xiaozong of the Song Dynasty, a plague occurred in Qinzhou. The symptoms were headache or joint pain, which were similar to those of typhoid fever, heat, rheumatism and alcohol. After it spread, countless casualties were killed or injured. It can be said that there was nothing to see when going out, and white bones covered the plain.
Wu Mian was guilty of being accused of having achieved great success in the Liangyi Master and was not worried about plagues such as flu. However, once the plague spreads in Changmall, Changshang Academy will inevitably be affected. If the person you know dies, he will not feel good about it. Moreover, Changshang Academy will inevitably stop studying.
"It is said that it is somewhat similar. The magistrate has ordered the blockade of those villages and prevented entry and exit."
Senior Brother Changsheng’s father is quite powerful and he reacts quickly enough.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Wu Mian thought about it and said, "I don't have a good way to do this plague. However, wearing some fragrant medicines, such as magnolia, cinnamon, pepper, etc., can still play some preventive effects. At the same time, it is best to burn mugwort and calamus from time to time, boil some vinegar to smoke it, which can kill sterilization... It can drive away the epidemic. You must also wash your hands frequently, bathe more, and don't take off your clothes as soon as you get warm. It is better to get prickly heat from heat than to accidentally get sick... Remember to wash the vegetables clean, cook thoroughly, and don't drink raw water when you drink more boiled water. Drink more boiled water and exercise more. If you have a strong body, you will naturally not have any diseases... Go to places where people talk too much to avoid being infected..."
Wu Mian from this world was born into a doctor and naturally had medical knowledge. Some simple diseases can be treated and they also had an understanding of prevention of plagues. Wu Mian inherited all the memories of Wu Mian from this world and naturally received all his understanding of medical knowledge. Combined with the popular health knowledge in his previous life, he immediately gave a bunch of suggestions.
As he kept telling, there were many people around him, all of whom were listening to his plague prevention as if they were listening to gentlemen’s lectures, listening carefully to him.
After he finished speaking, Zhou Yu smiled and said, "I am worthy of being a descendant of the doctor. I will not cure my illness before I can cure my illness. I will write down my words. I will write a letter to my family later and let them do what they do."
Changsun Quan also said, "I'll write a letter too... It's a pity that Amien's home is in the north of Shan, my home is in Lixian, one in the east and the other in the west, otherwise I would like to ask my parents to visit Lingtang Lingci. You can tell so many methods, Lingtang Lingci must have more methods."
Wu Mian smiled, and was about to say something hypocritical and humble, but suddenly saw a person he had been thinking about day and night outside the crowd... Liu Yunxiao!
It has been ten days since he arrived in the North Courtyard, but he has not seen Liu Yunxiao and Kong Wenxuan in a day.
After inquiring, he realized that although Liu Yunxiao was the head of Yongjia School, he rarely taught. Kong Wenxuan was the first to learn the Yuan Dynasty last year and was about to participate in the spring examination. Now he is focusing on scriptures and has no time to come to Yongjia School, which makes him very lonely.
Unexpectedly, when talking about preventing the plague, Liu Yunxiao actually visited.
Seeing Wu Mian see him, Liu Yunxiao smiled at Wu Mian, waved and signaled Wu Mian to go over.
Wu Mian did not hesitate at the moment and walked over to greet him and said, "Chief Liu."
Liu Yunxiao smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to understand medical skills, which is great."
"Students are just familiar with their family and have a little understanding of it."
"That's not bad. What you said just now is indeed some good ways to prevent plague." After saying a smile, Liu Yunxiao looked up and down at Wu Mianyier, with a look of surprise in his eyes: "It's not bad, you've almost mastered the Four Symbol Body Protection Technique. I remember you were only the second level before, right?"
Wu Mian smiled honestly: "Students don't know how they can be so quickly after practicing the Four Symbol Body Protection. Perhaps it's because they took the Life-saving Pill."
He didn't dare to say that he had improved by absorbing the power of the sundial, but he had already thought of a word and said that it was Wukong's life-saving pill for him.
The Life-saving Pill also contains the power of yin and yang. After taking it, it is equivalent to the success of the Liangyi master. It is said that the refining medicinal power leads to a great improvement in the skill, and it will not be too sudden.
"So that's it." Liu Yunxiao nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Wu Mian... Since you know medical skills, can you respond to the next thing?"
Here comes! I'll give you a chance to hug your thighs!
"What's the matter? Students must do their best!"
Liu Yunxiao smiled and said, "Don't be so serious. The day after tomorrow, the second day of March, the day after tomorrow, the bus sent the juren to Beijing for the examination. The academy had to arrange for the students to see him off, thinking of him as a role model. However, there has been a plague near Changshang recently, which is inevitable that people will feel panic. Since you know medical skills, then help take care of the students' situation when you see him off to avoid accidents. Can you?"
"Students are willing!" Wu Mian nodded heavily.
Why doesn’t he want to have an opportunity to perform in front of Liu Yunxiao?
Seeing Wu Mian agreeing, Liu Yunxiao's smile became even gentler: "Good boy. This is the responsibility of your senior brother Changsheng and other senior brothers from other schools. However, if there is more medical skills, they will be more relaxed. If you have nothing to do now, just follow me to the meeting hall. We are talking about this now."
"The students are fine, but they are sent by the teacher."
The meeting hall, among the four schools of the North Court, the heads of the three schools have arrived and are discussing the farewell. The other gentlemen and students are just listening and dare not interrupt.
The eldest son of Heshan School, Changsun Qing, said: "There is a plague outside the city. Don't make a big fuss about seeing off this time, just send it to the city gate."
Zhu Yu, the head of the Xincheng School, shook his head repeatedly: "No! Ten miles of farewell is the tradition of academy. The East Court has confirmed that it will see you ten miles of farewell. The South Court usually follows the East Court, and our North Court will be sent to the city gate. Wouldn't it be a joke?"
Sun Qing sneered: "So what about jokes? Is students' safety important or reputation important? Your Xincheng School has become closer to the Nancheng School in recent years, and has also been vocal about name over reality?"
Zhu Yu raised his eyebrows and looked angry: "Director Sun, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? What do you mean?"
"Okay, okay, the two ministers should not be angry." Gao Minggu, the head of the Gucheng School, inserted into the middle of the two who were facing each other and smiled bitterly: "What are you quarrel about when we are talking about now?"
Zhu Yu snorted coldly: "Hmph! I don't want to make a noise, but what Director Sun said was too ugly."
The reason why the four schools of the North Academy were divided into the North Academy is because the four schools all value reality. What Sun Qing said now is clearly affecting the roots of his Xincheng School. How could he not be angry?
Sun Qing also snorted coldly: "Am I wrong?"
"you……"
Seeing that the two were about to squat again, a light cough suddenly sounded outside the meeting hall: "Why are the two ministers?"
The voice was gentle, gentle and calm, and the smell of gunpowder in the meeting hall disappeared.
