"In the 21st year of Emperor Kaihuang's reign in the Sui Dynasty (603), in the sixth month of the Wushen year, there was a locust plague. Except for Longzhou, 18 or 19 people died in the northern states and counties." Excerpted from "Book of the Sui Dynasty: Chronicles of Gaodi"

…

From the second day on, everyone indeed found large pieces of peony at the marked place, and from then on, the process of collecting herbs became smoother and smoother.

When I returned the next day, I brought back five kilograms and four taels of red peony and more than ten kilograms of cohosh. The body of a blind bear and two cubs were brought back.

On the third day, I brought back ten pounds and six ounces of red peony, thirty-one pounds of cohosh, five hares, and a nest of eight wild bird eggs.

…

On the sixth day, there were fifteen kilograms and three ounces of red peony, forty-five kilograms of cohosh, ten hares, three pheasants, fifteen pheasants, and fifteen kilograms of wild fruits.

At this point, in the past six days, everyone has collected a total of 153 kilograms of herbs and dozens of kilograms of other medicinal materials. The prescriptions and the first batch of medicinal materials have been packed and sent to the pharmacy in the state capital. The new medicines will be delivered to the state capital.

Where it is ready, it will be sent to states and counties.

Sun Simiao stood on the hillside and looked at the carriage filled with medicinal materials as it drove away, with a serious look on his face, not at all the relaxation and joy he felt after completing the task.

…

Yesterday, in a village a few miles away, a woman who had wandered here suddenly fainted.

People around her came forward and found her lying on the ground, her face was blood red, her eyes were closed, and her whole body exuded a foul odor. They all ran away shouting "It's an epidemic, it's an epidemic".

In an instant, no one was left in the bustling village. When Sun Simiao and others arrived after hearing the news, the man was already unconscious and dying. Although he tried his best to rescue him, he could not be saved in the end.

The state capital has long ago divided strict control areas to prohibit the movement of people infected with the epidemic, but the results have been ineffective. Refugees infected with the epidemic are still appearing in counties and villages near Longshan.

Their symptoms include persistent high fever and congestion in the upper body, and the disease is highly contagious. Often one person gets sick and the whole family suffers.

In desperation, the state government only adopted Sun Simiao's suggestion and imitated Changsheng's method of pouring vinegar mixed with medicinal wine inside and outside the house, hoping to start the sterilization and disinfection effect. At the same time, he stepped up the distribution of the new medicine concocted by Sun to all prefectures and counties.

Reports of bad news spread frequently from various places, and the epidemic was so fierce that not even Sun Simiao could do anything about it. The old man went crazy these days and seemed to be squeezing his own life force. During the day, he walked more than ten miles in the mountains just to search for useful medicinal materials, and at night he had to stay up all night.

To prepare the herbal medicine, you only need to rest for two hours a day.

Changsheng tried to persuade him twice, but Mr. Sun only said silently: "There are people dying of epidemics outside all the time. Every time I think about this, I feel uneasy."

This also infected the people around him. If the old miracle doctor could do this, why should he regret it? Only then did he overfulfill the task in just five days. For this reason, Li Yuan specially sent a commendation, saying that it was the most important thing in the state capital recently.

Adults will come to observe and learn.

It seems that he is worried that he is going to lose, Chang Sheng thought.

Changsheng looked at the old man's back and retracted his thoughts.

She really wanted to tell him the number of people who died in ten epidemics, and it might not be necessary to tell him the number of people who died in one war in later generations.

However, the war never really stopped for a moment in the years to come.

But he couldn't bear to attack such an old man. Healing the wounded and dying was his lifelong pursuit. He had a heart of gold.

Perhaps only the words of a great man thousands of years later can describe him:

This is a pure person, a moral person, a person who has escaped from vulgar taste, and a person who is beneficial to the people.

…

Sun Simiao suddenly said softly: "Changsheng, I want to go to the epidemic area to have a look."

When he said this, he stared into the distance and straightened his back.

Among the three counties in Longzhou, Fufeng and Anding are the most severely affected, and are also the areas where the epidemic is currently concentrated.

Except for Wenquan County, where Changsheng is located, all other counties in Fufeng County have shown signs of an epidemic outbreak.

Logically speaking, the imperial court should issue an imperial medical order at this time, ordering the entire country to enter first-level epidemic prevention alert, and then exclude specialized medical forces from providing guidance and assistance.

But the emperor can't care about this at the moment, because the successive locust plagues and the outbreak of epidemics in various places have made the people agitated, and the government and the public are in turmoil. In some places, the elders of the gentry have begun to spread the news that the origin of the throne is incorrect, and the emperor has to do bad things, so that the heavens send bad omens.

remarks.

Today, the emperor is sighing and worrying every day above the court, and the ministers below are quarreling and quarreling every day. Who would really care about the people of the world?

To this Chang Sheng just wants to say, fuck you. You don’t care about your people, but I care about mine.

Angry, she issued the strictest health and disinfection regulations in the camp. Everyone must wash their hands with salt water when entering and exiting every day. It is forbidden to drink raw water and spitting. Domestic garbage is collected and processed in a centralized manner. New homeless people who come from out of town are first in the camp.

The temporary stronghold outside is isolated, and the camp can only be entered after the observation period.

Inspired by Chang Sheng's iron-fisted methods and Mr. Sun's personality, although everyone was a little uncomfortable with it, they still strictly abided by it. As a result, no one of the nearly 2,000 people in the camp was infected with the disease.

This was a small victory for Chang Sheng and Sun Simiao in fighting the epidemic. However, such a victory could not make her happy, because there were storms and rains in the outside world, and they were calling Sun Simiao. And he responded with his life.

Sun Simiao looked at her. She was her granddaughter's child at this age. After this period of time, she had become his best friend and the greatest comfort in his heart.

Lao Sun gently pulled her to him and rubbed her head: "I'm just going to take a look. I'll be back soon."

Changsheng choked with red eyes and said: "Look, the herb collection team has just entered the formal stage. Many new herbal medicines have been discovered in Xipo. I am even planning to set up a medical school for you so that you can teach them all this knowledge.

You’re not leaving because you cherish your broom, are you?”

Sun Simiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and Chang Sheng's words touched the key point in his heart. This girl knew him too well and knew his wish to teach medical skills and promote medicine. She was definitely not the one to describe herself as a poor person.

The original intention was just a means to motivate myself to stay.

Sun Simiao knelt down and hugged Changsheng tightly, interrupting her, "Okay Changsheng, I understand what you mean. There is no need to persuade me anymore. I have to go this time."

This child is too powerful. If she continues talking, Sun Simiao is really afraid that he will not be able to help but agree to her staying.

"Before I leave, I'd like to recommend someone to you. He's from Group 8. His name is Zhang Baobao. This person can temporarily replace me and help you."

"No one can compare to you!" Changsheng pouted and hugged Sun Simiao tightly, like a coquettish girl hugging her grandfather tightly. Only in the arms of this old man could he let go of all his guard and release himself to his heart's content.

.

Tears wetted Sun Simiao's clothes. Old Sun's eyes were red and he patted her back gently without saying a word.

…

Sun Simiao left anyway, and in the early morning of the next day, without disturbing anyone, he took the carriage prepared for him by Changsheng and took with him the medicine box for his medical practice, which was all his property.

The only things left behind were the money given to him by Changsheng and several handwritten medicinal materials notes, which recorded the diagrams and annotations of all the medicinal herbs collected on Longshan Mountain.

Chang Sheng sat alone in Sun Simiao's tent, feeling the old man's remaining breath in the air. He held the notes in his hand and ordered to the people outside: "Bring Zhang Baobao to see me."

With a simple but powerful command, she returned to her usual majesty after Lao Sun left.

"Yes!" The soldier outside the door replied immediately after hearing the order, bowed, took a few steps back and ran away quickly.

…

Changsheng held his chin, thinking about the future prospects.

It is the Sui Dynasty now, and the current emperor is Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. His name seems to be Yang Yong. I really have no impression of him;

The name of my father, Duke Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty, is very familiar. I seem to have heard it somewhere, but I just can’t recall it.

Sun Simiao, the King of Medicine, was a famous doctor in history who wrote "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions". Although Zhang Zhongjing has always been considered a medical sage, after this time of contact with the old man, Chang Sheng felt that Sun Simiao was fully worthy of the title of 'medical sage' .

Mr. Jin Yong's words suddenly came to mind: A great chivalrous person serves the country and the people.

You are not a medical saint, at least you are a medical hero.

When I think of Sun Simiao, my thoughts about longevity tend to go very far.

He shook his head, drove the old man's figure out of his mind, and continued to think about future plans.

As a medical student, I really love Mr. Sun Simiao so much that I will spend a lot of space on him. I hope everyone can understand and give more advice~~Bow~
