Chapter 190 It Was Poisoning

Before confirming whether it was an epidemic or not, these military doctors took protective measures.

His face was covered with a cloth covering his mouth and nose; his hands were also covered with gloves; and he was also wearing protective clothing.

But Qu Chu did not take protective measures.

Neither the disease nor the virus had any effect on Qu Chu.

Probably for the convenience of taking care of them, the six members of this family were all lying side by side on the combined bed boards in the hall, their faces were gray and black.

The woman gently pushed a middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman opened her eyes, her eyes were red, and she was unconscious.

The situation is similar to that of the infected soldiers in the army, except that the middle-aged woman's eyes are redder and her face is darker.

Qu Chu asked several military doctors to come forward to see them.

Several military doctors examined them carefully, took the pulse again, and then they discussed together for a while before reporting to Qu Chu.

"General, the condition of the six of them is the same as that of the soldiers in the army, except that their condition is more serious. As for whether it is poisoned or not, we are not sure, because we are not good at poison."

Qu Chu can understand.

Originally, military doctors mainly focused on treating trauma, and it was really difficult for them to detoxify.

"Then can you now confirm whether this is an epidemic?"

The military doctor carefully asked the woman who opened the door some questions, such as when she came to take care of her, how she took care of her, and the condition of the patient in the past few days. pulse.

"General, if it's really an epidemic, this woman didn't take any protective measures, she should have been infected long ago.

But now she is not infected with the patient's disease, but her body is slightly tired, which is because she has not had a good rest recently.

According to her situation, the disease can basically be ruled out.

But to be on the safe side, we'd better check more cases. "

……

After hearing what the military doctor said, Qu Chu asked Li Zheng to lead the way to the home of another sick commoner.

Qu Chu took the military doctor to see all the sick people in this area. Although it is still uncertain whether it is poisoning, the possibility of epidemic disease is basically ruled out.

After reaching this conclusion, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it is not an epidemic or contagious, it can be controlled.As long as the cause of the disease is found out, it can be treated symptomatically.

……

After returning to the barracks, the soldiers who were looking for the water source had already returned.

Qu Chu wants to thoroughly investigate all sources of drinking water.

The way Qu Chuche checked whether the water source was poisonous was to ask the soldiers to take drinking water from various sources and test the poison with silver needles first.

If the silver needle can test out the poison, then there is no need to continue the test, it must be poisonous.

If the silver needle test does not show any poison, then use the poison test pill made by Su Yingxue to test the poison.

……

Qu Chu asked the military doctor to test the poison with a silver needle.

The silver needles were inserted into different water bottles, and none of the silver needles changed color.

"General, the water is not poisonous."

Qu Chu silently watched the military doctors test the poison with silver needles, even if the silver needles were found to be poisonous or not, she did not respond, as if this had been expected by her.

After all the military doctors had tested the poison, Qu Chu took a bottle of water.

This bottle of water is drawn from the largest well in the center of the city, and it is also the well that draws water from the largest number of people.

Qu Chu took a poison test pill and threw it into the water. The water reacted violently and kept bubbling, a bit similar to the feeling when water boils.

And it hasn't stopped for a long time.

It is indeed poisonous!

Qu Chu glanced at the test pills, there were only ten pills in total, and there were still nine pills after using one just now, but there were still more than twenty bottles in front of him.

Qu Chu took another water bottle.

This bottle of water is from a small river near the military camp, and the drinking water in the military camp is usually taken from this river.

Qu Chu took a poison test pill and threw it into the water. The water only bubbled a few times, and then slowly returned to calm.

Qu Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the water in this river is not poisonous, otherwise tens of thousands of people in the military camp would be in trouble if they were poisoned.

No wonder there were not many poisoned people in the barracks. It is estimated that those poisoned soldiers were poisoned after drinking water elsewhere.

The military doctor watched Qu Chu's movements from the sidelines, and he understood.

"General, the reactions of the two bottles of water just now are different. Is it possible that one bottle is poisonous and the other non-toxic?"

Qu Chu nodded, "That's right, water that reacts violently is poisonous, and water that doesn't react is non-toxic."

The military doctor knew that the medicinal materials in the army were all supplied by Mantuo Villa, so he tried to ask: "Is this poison test pill also from Mantuo Villa?"

Qu Chu replied with a "hmm" lightly.

This poison test pill is not so easy to make, some of the herbs are very scarce, otherwise Ying Xue would not have given herself only ten pills.

Qu Chu then took eight more bottles of water to test the poison, six of which were poisonous and two were non-toxic.

Two bottles of non-toxic water, one bottle is drinking water from the prison where the prisoners are held; the other bottle is the water source near the Governor's Mansion.

At this point, Qu Chu had a clear idea: Yan Qing probably sent the poison to the south.

He knew that after he escaped, he would not let his family members go, but he was not sure whether he would put his family members in prison or continue to be locked in the governor's mansion, so the water sources in these two places were not poisoned.

It is also fortunate that he has some kindness towards his family, otherwise, if there is only one water source, there will be not enough drinking water for the people in Nanshu City.

There are more than a dozen bottles of water that have not been tested for poison, and Qu Chu attributes them all to poisonous water for the time being.

After reaching a conclusion, Qu Chu ordered all water sources to be sealed except for the three water sources that were found to be non-toxic.

……

After returning to the residence from the barracks, Qu Chu called Gray Dian over and patted its head.

"Good boy, send me two letters.

Send a letter to Yingxue at Mantuo Villa, this letter is very important, you send it to her first.

Another letter was sent to Ning Youbei. "

Hearing that it was to send a letter to Su Yingxue, Hui Dian was a little reluctant and pointed his butt at Qu Chu.

But when Qu Chu said that this letter was very important, he reluctantly turned around and agreed.

This letter from Qu Chu to Su Yingxue is to ask her to come to Nanshu to see if she can get rid of the poison of Yan Qing going south.In addition, it is best to let Bi Shenyi come to Nanshu together.

Because she heard from Qu Bingyu that in her previous life, it was Bi Shenyi who concocted the antidote to the Southern Shu disease.

The letter to Ning Youbei told him about the current situation in Nanshu, and asked him to send Qu Bingyu to Nanshu.

Although Bingyu has never practiced medicine, Qu Chu knows that her medical skills are very good, especially good at dispensing medicines. Let her study with Bi Shenyi, maybe the antidote can be prepared faster.

……

The streets and alleys of Nanshu City are covered with notices.

The notice clearly states:

The symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea among the people in Nanshu City were not a punishment from heaven, but poisoning.

And this poison was put into the water source of Nanshu City by Yan Qingnan before he escaped, which caused the people of Nanshu City to be poisoned.

Now, the residents of the whole city can only get drinking water from three sources.

In order to facilitate the people to use water, soldiers will help the people deliver water to their homes.

……

　Soon Ning Youbei, Su Yingxue, Qu Bingyu and others will gather in Nanshu, and the storyline will not be so dull.
