Smallpox has been present in Europe for many, many years.

It is the god of death that brings herpes and abscesses. It is a plague more vicious than the Black Death. It seems to be ravaging the entire world. Tang Ruowang could see it when he was in the Holy Roman Empire.

You can also see it when you come to the Ming Empire.

Across the vast territory of the Ming Empire, you can still see it from the southernmost to the northernmost.

It's a nightmare that never goes away.

More deadly than the Black Death! More filthy! A more terrifying evil!

It is God's last judgment and a nightmare that everyone can't get rid of.

No matter the king or the slave, they will all wail in pain under its whip!

And those who survived by chance have almost no human appearance. The terrifying curse will always remain on their bodies and skin. They are feared and rejected by the world. They can no longer become healthy people who can stand upright in the sun.

.

Therefore, a few days ago, when the legendary barbarian king who possessed evil magic and colluded with the devil announced that he would be exposed to the power of the heretical evil god of the barbarians and be exempted from the erosion of smallpox.

Tang Ruowang admired him, but also felt sorry for him.

I thought that the rumored king of barbarians was not a barbarian, but a king full of literature and bravery.

But from this point of view.

Just a lucky fool.

But after a few days, things got serious.

Most people can't tell the difference between cowpox and smallpox, but Tang Ruowang also knows medical skills.

But Western medicine these days.

They all know it, their main job is washing, cutting and blowing, their unique skill is bloodletting, and they wear a beak mask to pour all kinds of stuff into a person's anus.

He couldn't tell the difference.

Although variola vaccination technology already existed in China, it was obviously not popularized. Many factors contributed to Kang Mazi's rise to power. Smallpox was so serious that the royal family had to give priority to recommending a Mazi with smallpox antibodies to the throne. The degree of danger can be imagined.

.

Now, after so many days, the smallpox patient known to the world has been covered with papules and herpes, has fallen into convulsions and coma, and has severe symptoms of toxemia. In more serious cases, he will also suffer from various horrific diseases.

complication.

Inflammations such as sepsis, osteomyelitis, encephalitis, and blindness seriously aggravate the patient's mortality.

But in front of everyone, the walls of the courtyard were covered with people who came to watch the ceremony. Later, the shaman in the general office proudly showed off the local pimples on his body, saying that this was proof of a miracle and the mercy of God.

The ritual given by Wuerte is indeed correct.

This symptom is extremely mysterious to people who know about smallpox!

for this.

Even if you come to watch heretical priests, you are suspected of betraying your own beliefs.

Tang Ruowang must come too.

Represents all foreign missionaries currently in the capital.

“Please my lord, forgive the sin of your servant, and do not bear in mind the sin that your servant committed when my lord left Jerusalem.”

With anxiety and a sense of immorality, Tang Ruowang made a sign of the cross in front of the door of the General Staff Office of the Chinese Army, and then found the black guard guarding the door among the strange looks of everyone on the courtyard wall.

"What did he say?"

"I want to go up and see the prince."

"The prince is not here, there are only a few shamans. The prince allows you to look around as you like for the next few days. If you want to look, you can find a ladder yourself, but wait! You have to be searched first!"

The Viking braids in the armor of the barbarian soldiers were still eye-catching, and Tang Ruowang didn't understand why the oriental savages who emerged from the wild forests would have such braids.

But after being searched, he still asked his servant to find a ladder.

I need to go up and have a look.

Once up.

Sure enough, there were several old men wearing silk clothes and animal skins and animal bones, and they were drinking tea and sunbathing in the courtyard of the General's Office with their servants.

After you’ve had enough wine and food, you have to drink up this little tea~

I stripped naked and stood in the sun to experience low-grade fever and occasional delirium.

It's dizzy and even a bit ecstatic, and the shamans call it that they are communicating with the God of Life and Plague.

A group of tribal leaders in the back, despite feeling a little uncomfortable, were playing cards, chess, and wrestling with each other.

In Tang Ruowang's eyes, this was already a miracle.

Just a little bit of herpes!?

There is no sign of any pain!

Not only can he walk, sit, and lie down like a normal person! He can also fight!?

Tang Ruowang had never raised cows, and the similar symptoms of cowpox to smallpox made it always ignored.

He couldn't tell the difference between the two.

The manifestation of this symptom is impacting Tang Ruowang's outlook on life.

The power of faith supported him to cross the ocean and come to this strange land.

Now it's a bit backlash.

He got off the ladder in a hurry, wondering whether he should tell the news to other missionaries in the capital or to his disciples who were preaching in Shunguo.

But at this time, the door to the General's Office opened.

Zhao Bai, who had not slept well for several days, came out and sent a message to the outside: "From now on, access to the general office will be restored."

"Ouch!!"

The people on the wall of the lower courtyard were a little panicked, but then Zhao Bai shouted: "God protects us. Those who have performed the ceremony will not infect other people with sores. The prince said that in about ten days we will be free of sores."

It will recover, maybe leaving a little scar, and we won’t suffer from sores for the rest of our lives!”

The exclamations started again.

This time it was a bit of a celebration.

Tang Ruowang, who was about to leave to sort out his thoughts, finally stopped after hearing this.

If you pursue that 'ritual', then it is a betrayal of faith.

But for profit.

For Jesus Christ and the Jesuits, this 'ritual' has a fatal attraction.

When we came to this land, even the Jesuits had to make compromises and could only tolerate Chinese believers' respect for Kong Jingzu, and they didn't even dare to mention that they were not allowed to worship their ancestors.

Then this ceremony

Finally, he made up his mind, turned around and leaned forward slightly in front of Zhao Bai and said a thousand words: "Qintian Supervisor, Bishop Tang Ruowang of the South Hall, please see the regent Heshuo Chaoyong."

The people from the Eight Banners outside knew that he planned to eat crabs, so they simply waited for the result.

Let’s see if he dies after half a month inside.

Anyway, we have to stay away from the people inside.

The notice reached Zhu Youjian, who was reading the brochure.

When I heard it was Tang Ruowang, I missed him a little for a while.

The upper echelons of the Ming royal family were by no means closed-minded and ignorant. After Zhu Yujian was in prison, he still had time to interact with the missionary Bi Fanji. It can be said that most of the upper-class nobles had some communication with these people from the other side of the world.

Chongzhen's acceptance of some advanced Western learning was also quite high. Although the courtiers rejected Western learning, both he and Zhu Yujian had a rich understanding of the world structure, both in terms of firearms and various academic aspects.

Tang Ruowang was already considered a veteran in the Chongzhen Dynasty. Chongzhen personally gave him the sign "Praise for Heavenly Learning", and Tang Ruowang specially requested permission to copy a bunch of copies. At this time, it was hung in Catholic churches all over China.

Unfortunately, the regime is extremely corrupt, bloated and slow.

No matter how much useful knowledge there is, it cannot be put to use.

"Call him in."

Zu Dashou and Hong Chengchou have both met, so there is no harm in meeting Tang Ruowang.

There is one more chapter, let’s have breakfast first and then continue coding
