Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 996 Miasma

When the King of Chu heard the news, he rushed to the Yunnan Military Hospital near Dian Lake to see if the uncle and nephew could be saved.

"It's hopeless..." The fifth brother personally took charge of the first aid work for the two of them, and told the sixth brother with certainty: "What they ate was the most poisonous fungus in Yunnan. The uncle and nephew cooked a whole pot. And it was only the next day. Even the gods can’t save what was sent here.”

"What do you do for food?!" King Chu looked at Duan Shi's uncle and nephew who were lying on the hospital bed with faces as golden as paper. Angrily denounced Feng Cheng, the first Yunnan capital commander who was responsible for guarding important prisoners.

"How can we let them eat poisonous mushrooms?"

Feng Cheng was the son of Feng Guoyong and the nephew of Song Guogong Feng Sheng. He was entrusted with important tasks at a young age, so he was naturally arrogant.

But in front of Lao Liu, he didn't dare to breathe, and said sarcastically: "The general has already asked, and there are never mushrooms in the food provided to them."

"It was Duan Ming who told the guard that Dali people felt uncomfortable if they didn't eat mushrooms for three days, so he asked the guard to get him a pot and cook it himself in the house."

"I have asked their entourage, and they all said that it is common for people in Yunnan to get poisoned after eating fungi. Therefore, nobles like Duan's uncle and nephew have their servants test the poison before eating the fungi. They only eat it when the people below eat it and it is fine." Fifth Brother continued.

"Are the people below okay?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"It's okay, because the people below didn't eat it at all." Fifth Brother said leisurely: "Duan Ming made the mushrooms himself and served them to Duan Shi, and the uncle and nephew enjoyed them together. No servants were involved from the beginning to the end."

"What Fifth Brother means," Zhu Zhen said with a slightly moved expression, "did the uncle and nephew not eat by mistake, but actively seek death?"

"Guess." King Zhou said calmly.

At this time, Duan Ming suddenly woke up from his coma, shouted a strange language, and was about to pounce on Lao Liu with all his teeth and claws.

"Fuck..." Zhu Zhen was startled.

But his hands and feet were tied to the bed, and he couldn't leave the bed at all. He could only grin at Lao Liu from a distance.

"What language does he speak, Bo?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"Fungi poisoning is often accompanied by mental symptoms. Who knows which language he speaks?" Fifth Brother sighed and asked someone to tie him up tighter. "But he can speak Chinese, you can try to communicate with him."

"You picked poisonous mushrooms on purpose and cooked them to eat with Duan Shi, right?" Zhu Zhen asked loudly.

"Yes, this is the most noble way to die for Dali people!" Duan Ming can indeed speak Chinese, but his expression and tone are abnormal: "Our Duan family will never leave Dali country in our lives. We are born in Dali country. Death is the devil of Dali!"

"After leaving Dali, being under house arrest in the capital for a lifetime, and never being able to eat fungi, what's the point of living?" Duan Ming murmured: "You guys, green-faced and fanged monsters, will not succeed! We will die even if we die. In Yunnan, and then turned into fungi..."

"..." Lao Liu and others had black lines on their foreheads, but they could still get some clues from Duan Ming's crazy words.

After coming out of the ward, Zhu Zhenping stepped back and strolled by the Dian Lake with his fifth brother. He sighed and said: "The King of Liang also died because of this. Not everyone can bear the pain of national subjugation."

Although Dali canceled its national title a hundred years ago. But in the eyes of the Duan family, their country only fell in February this year...

It is estimated that Prince Liang had similar feelings.

"I hope we will never experience this kind of pain." Fifth Brother said softly. "Hahaha," Zhu Zhen couldn't help laughing and said: "Fifth brother, don't worry, our Ming Dynasty is prosperous, our country will be long-lasting, and even if it is not good, it can be passed down for two or three hundred years. The descendants of ten generations and eight generations will not have this kind of painfully."

"That's good." Lao Wu believed in Lao Liu very much, and after hearing this, he no longer worried about this. Then he said: "Speaking of children and grandchildren, it's time for you to get married. Originally, you were supposed to get married last year, but it ended up being postponed to this year..."

"This is not what I want. It was my father who threw me to Yunnan and Guizhou, and all the responsibility lies with him." Lao Liu smiled bitterly: "But when he calls me back this time, he is probably going to consummate my marriage."

"Oh? Are you going back?" Zhu Li was slightly startled. He was ignoring secular affairs and focusing on his medical career. Naturally, he was too lazy to attend yesterday's occasion.

"I'm afraid you never read the briefing I sent you?" However, Lao Liu would always forward the news to him as soon as possible.

"They are all things that I am not interested in. I even looked at them twice at first, but then I didn't bother to look at them." Lao Wu said sarcastically.

"You still have to take a good look. It won't take much time every day." Zhu Zhen advised: "After I leave, you will be the supervisor of the army. You can no longer ignore what is happening outside the window."

"Okay..." Lao Wu nodded reluctantly. Then he struggled: "It's such a big deal like your marriage, but I can't go back. What should I do?"

"It's not like you're getting married. If you can't go back, you can't go back." Zhu Zhen said with a smile.

"That's not right. Let's not talk about our brother's feelings. Just talk about such a strange thing as marrying three princesses at the same time. If we weren't there, we would be in a panic." The fifth brother shook his head.

"Get out!" Lao Liu squeezed out a curse word from between his teeth, and the two brothers laughed.

All said and done, Lao Wu will stay in Yunnan for at least a year, and nothing will change this.

Because the main purpose of Lao Wu's visit to Yunnan is actually not battlefield rescue, but to overcome an eternal problem - miasma.

Yunnan is known as the land of miasma. Looking through the history books, no foreign army can be immune to the scourge of miasma.

Neither Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty nor the armies of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty were defeated by the troops of the Yunnan regime. But they were unable to withstand the ubiquitous miasma in Yunnan, which triggered a great plague. More than half of the soldiers died, and they had to withdraw from Yunnan.

Boss Zhu had noticed this a long time ago. Of course he didn't want his precious soldiers to die in the miasma in vain, so he thought that he had a fifth son who was a miracle doctor who could prevent smallpox.

So Zhu Xi followed the order and led a group of people from the Epidemic Prevention Department of Huangyi Temple to come to Yunnan all the way.

After a period of research, and of course Lao Liu leaked the secret, he roughly figured out what the so-called miasma, or miasma, was all about.

"Ancient medical books say that all diseases in the south are called miasma." When it comes to his profession, he seems to be a different person. He was very articulate and his eyes were shining. He grabbed the sixth child and kept talking:

"The ancients generally believed that it was because the jungles in the south were dense and humid and rainy, so they were full of foul air from the mountains and forests. People would get sick if they were contaminated."

"But the problem is, if you look through history books, you will find that the so-called miasma land is not fixed. At first, it was called the miasma land south of the Huaihe River, then south of the Yangtze River, and now only Lingnan is left." Zhu Zhu said. Talked:

"So I think you are right. The so-called miasma is just people's fear of unknown diseases. In fact, the so-called miasma is some diseases unique to the south!"
