Chapter 259 The source of the plague
Dongfang Ming helped the woman in front of him up and then said, "Next, let's take good care of her body. After all, I've been sick for a while."
Just when Dongfang Ming was still comforting the woman, the little girl on the bed slowly stood up.
Seeing this, Dongfang Ming hurriedly supported him.
"You are still too weak and weak now, don't move around!"
I saw that the little girl's eyes suddenly became wet.
A tender voice said with a slightly hoarse voice: "Thank you, brother, for causing trouble for the big brother."
Dongfang Ming touched the little girl's head and said softly: "Listen to the adults and grow up obediently!"
Then, Dongfang Ming gave the woman some silver and walked out of the room.
"God man!" Many townsmen also saw this scene of Dongfang Ming's treatment.
There is no way to do it, no sacrifice, only conditioning the patient.
Suddenly, someone seemed to know something, but for some reason, he did not come out to explain it.
But Dongfang Ming's move has already shocked the villagers outside.
"Is there any other problem?" Dongfang Ming looked at the people outside the door and said, "Is this what you call a plague?"
"this……"
Many townspeople became silent and dared not answer.
And that Master Faqing ran away early.
Dongfang Ming shook his head and listened quietly to the prompt sound of the task.
But after Dongfang Ming completed the task, another task came into his ears.
"Ding, detect the follow-up tasks and help the townsmen find the source of poison. The reward for completing the task is 50 Tang points, and the punishment for failure remains unchanged."
Maybe it was the system's arrangement, or maybe it was because the system heard Dongfang Ming's inner thoughts, and the subsequent tasks rang out in Dongfang Ming's mind.
Then, Dongfang Ming told the many townsmen: "You are not suffering from a plague, you are simply poisoned."
"Poisoned?" After hearing Dongfang Mingde's words, everyone looked confused.
Dongfang Ming shook his head and explained: "You are all mercury poisoning!"
"High concentrations of mercury can combine with amino groups, hydroxyl groups, phosphoryl groups, carboxyl groups, etc. in the enzyme, causing corresponding damage. Mercury can activate phospholipases in the cell through calcium ions, decompose phospholipids in the cell, generate arachidonic acid and oxygen free radicals, etc., and damage its function." Dongfang Ming's knowledge appeared in the basic encyclopedia, and then explained to the townspeople.
"After mercury is combined with proteins in the body, it can become an antigen from haptens, causing allergic reactions and nephrotic syndrome; high concentrations of mercury can also directly cause glomerular immune damage. Mercury can inhibit T cells and lead to self-immune damage." Seeing many townspeople full of confusion, Dongfang Ming explained: "This is the main reason why you are poisoned and coma."
When I heard Dongfang Ming briefly describe the truth, many villagers felt like they were listening to the heavenly books, but they were unable to refute it.
The knowledge that Dongfang Ming said was easy for him.
But for these townspeople, I really don’t know what to answer.
Dongfang Ming sighed deeply and said, "I will help you find the source of the virus. When I find the source of the virus, don't eat anything at will, and drink more milk to nourish your kidneys and stomach!"
Just after Dongfang Ming finished speaking these words, several old men among the townsmen stood up.
"Mr. Dongfang, we are doctors in Shuangqiao Town. Please leave it to us for the maintenance."
Dongfang Ming casually used the intelligence system to look at the old people in front of him. After confirming that he was a doctor, Dongfang Ming confessed: "The drugs such as cinnabar and realgar cannot be used, do you understand!"
The old man nodded and began to clear the people around the house.
After watching the many townsmen leave, Dongfang Ming hid in the dark and walked towards the inn where he lived.
...
"What happened?" Cui Ning asked when he saw Dongfang Ming climbing over from the window.
Dongfang Ming shook his head and said, "Many people in this town have been poisoned, and this place is not far from our church. If the matter here cannot be solved, we will come to our church in some time."
Dongfang Ming said to Cui Ning with a righteous face.
But in fact, all this was made up by Dongfang Ming.
Starting from the Sun and Moon God Sect, Dongfang Ming slowed down his travels and had some time to go. In this way, Dongfang Ming and Cui Ning had also walked dozens of kilometers.
The incident in Shuangqiao Town, judging from the spread of this situation, could not affect Dongfang Ming's troops at all.
But Cui Ning trusted Dongfang Ming, nodded and smiled, and went with Dongfang Ming.
Seeing that Cui Ning did not stop him, Dongfang Ming took the teacup on the table and observed the entire town.
"Backing by the mountains and rivers, the geographical environment of this town is quite good."
Dongfang Mingyuan looked at the town and used his own scanning system to watch.
However, due to grade reasons, the scanning range is too small, and Dongfangming cannot conduct a large-scale analysis.
"I need to go out and look for it." Dongfang Ming looked at Cui Ning and said, "Do you want to go together?"
Cui Ning looked at Dongfang Ming, smiled and said, "Don't you believe me?"
Dongfang Ming smiled slightly and said, "Just be careful and help me be wary."
As he said that, Dongfang Ming and Cui Ning climbed out of the window together.
The sky gradually became darker.
In the shadows, two black figures shuttled across the streets.
"Why do we still have to wear this black suit when we inspect the inspection?" Cui Ning said with a slight dissatisfaction pulling his night clothes.
Dongfang understood Cui Ning and said, "Although I have suppressed the people in the town now, the Faqing is still in the dark. If we act openly now, we will only be monitored by them, and it will be even more difficult to act."
"Then have you figured out the source now?" Cui Ning did not continue to debate with Dongfang Ming.
Dongfang Ming was silent, thinking silently about the properties of mercury in his heart.
"If you want to use this substance to poison the whole town..."
"Source of water!"
Dongfang Ming suddenly said: "Water source is a transmission route. Only when mercury is combined can it be transmitted using water. As long as the water source is found, the truth will be revealed!"
But when Cui Ning heard this, he suddenly asked, "If water is the source, then should we remind the people in the town?"
"No!" Dongfang Ming smiled and said, "Water flows under normal circumstances, even well water, so we don't need the mercury poison in the water anyway. Because of this, the poisonous agent can flexibly control the poison!"
"Then do you know the person who released the poison behind?" Cui Ning looked at Dongfang Ming and asked.
Dongfang Ming looked at the full moon in the sky and said, "The source of things is the truth. As long as you do things, there will be traces!"
Then, Dongfang Ming said to Cui Ning.
"Go up the mountain and find the truth!"
