After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1125 The Heavenly Book and Trying a Dead Horse to Revive It

"And you can shut up now. You dare to talk about Boss Qin? Do you think Boss Qin is someone to be trifled with? Watch out, she might storm into your house, grab you by the neck, and slap you a few times!"

Ouch! The villagers already felt the pain and quickly covered their mouths, saying, "Yes, yes, Mr. Qin is a good person, we won't say anything more!"

Whether it can stop a child from crying at night is unknown, but the name Qin Xiaomi can silence the gossip of the villagers.

However, the villagers were still curious: What has Qin Dongjia been doing these past few days? Is he afraid of the war and has locked himself up?
Not to mention the villagers, the Qin Jiang and Xu Qiao families were all very curious, especially Qin Liupo. She couldn't hold back any longer and, under the pretext of taking Grandma Qin home, ran to the window of Qin Xiaomi's house to peep.

result……

"Hey, hey, hey, elder, I'm your employer's elder, Zhu Yiqing, let go right now, or I'll..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Yiqing covered Qin Liupo's mouth, picked her up, and carried her all the way to the back door of the Jiang family's residence before putting the old woman down.

"Please have someone from Guan's family come out and help take Granny Qin back to her home." Zhu Yiqing then said to Granny Qin, "The master said that no one is allowed to disturb her before she opens the door, or else, they will be killed!"

Kill my ass! A little girl with no official rank, and you dare to use the word "kill"? Be careful, the county government might arrest her and behead her one day!

Qin Liupo was cursing inwardly, but she didn't utter a single syllable; she was incredibly obedient.

Zhu Yiqing has also rushed back to the Qin family's inner residence to continue guarding and protecting Qin Xiaomi.

Two men appeared before Qin Liupo, dressed entirely in gray with their faces covered. They did not speak, but only gestured for her to enter.

"What are you doing? I'm not going to bother Xiaomi, I'm going to chat with my fifth sister-in-law, okay?"

The two Guan family assassins shook their heads, continued to make the gesture of invitation, and even started counting on their fingers with Granny Qin.

The five fingers were folded up one by one, the meaning was clear: if you don't leave after this count of five, we'll take action.

Granny Qin: "Hmph, if I don't want to go, I don't want to go! I don't care!"

After saying that, he ran away before the fifth finger could be retracted.

……

Grandma Qin couldn't figure out what Qin Xiaomi was doing locked in the room. Grandma Qin and Aunt Qin were very disappointed, but they didn't dare to knock on the door. They just made rations for the battle while waiting anxiously.

Fortunately, Qin Xiaomi can still eat and relieve herself.

Even when she encounters her family members, she won't talk to them.

Although Qin Xiaomi had explained to her family before locking herself in that she was afraid of being interrupted, her family was still worried.

Only when they see the empty bowls being recycled can the family feel a little more at ease.

On the ninth day of the third month, Qin Xiaomi finally opened the door and said to her family, "Grandpa, Second Uncle, I'm done. Go and call the people over. I don't know if this medicine can be made, whether it can deal with the rat plague, or whether it can be delivered to Northeast Prefecture in time."

"You...you made a medicine to cure the rat plague?!" Uncle Qin was almost scared to death.

*Slap!* Grandpa Qin slapped him on the back of the head: "What are you yelling about? Get on with it!"

"Oh, son, I'll go right away... Who are you calling? Do you have a list?" Uncle Qin Er reached out to Qin Xiaomi.

Qin Xiaomi gave him a list.

Uncle Qin quickly glanced over and saw that in addition to Commander Ling and his military doctors, Doctor You and his apprentice, and Old Doctor Lin under Commander Zhong, there were also women who knew medicine, such as Shen Lu Niang, Xiao Shang Lu, Doctor Xue and his wife, and Granny Chen.

This?
"If you don't understand, Uncle will go and call for help!" Uncle Qin called Jiang Erlang, Miao Bo, and others, and drove off to call for help.

This time, the meeting was to be held at the herbal medicine processing workshop.

In the afternoon, everyone arrived. Inside the women's workshop's office, Qin Xiaomi handed a stack of papers covered in writing to everyone present: "Try to see if you can understand them?"

Absolutely not.

It was covered with many strange symbols and names of many items they were seeing for the first time.

Although these items contained familiar terms like mold and fungus, bone char (used for adsorbing substances), and pine resin (used for separating substances), they still couldn't understand them at all, just like...

"It's like a book written in the heavens. After all this time, Master, this is all you've come up with?" Old Xun asked.

Qin Xiaomi: "Can anyone summarize the production process from this stack of papers?"

"The production process?" As expected of the scribe Guan, he was indeed learned. After reading these mysterious books, he picked up his pen and wrote: "In the sea area of ​​Lingnan, there is a porous organism called a sponge; on the sponge, there is an invisible bacterium called actinomycete, which produces a metabolite; this metabolite, after being cultured, can produce streptomycin."

"Does this mean that streptomycin can treat rat plague?"

Qin Xiaomi was stunned for a moment, then felt very gratified... Ancient people, pure-blooded ancient people, could actually understand modern biomedicine.

Qin Xiaomi felt as if she had returned to the modern world, to her hometown. Her eyes welled up with tears, but she held back and nodded quickly: "That's right, that's the process."

"Listen carefully, everyone." Qin Xiaomi held up what she had written and explained to them what a porous sponge is, what actinomycetes on a sponge are, and what the metabolites of actinomycetes are.

What are bacteria cultivation, mold growth, and mycotoxin extraction?

What is inactivation?

"120 degrees Celsius is the temperature at which boiling water is used to steam buns and mantou. Steaming it for 15 minutes will kill the bacteria."

"Only inactivated metabolites can be used in pharmaceuticals. If they are not inactivated, the other bacteria and pathogens in them will harm the patients."

Everyone's heads were filled with: "???"

"Haha, still can't understand it, it's like a book written in heaven, isn't it?" Qin Xiaomi laughed, and at the end of her laughter was a strange, wicked laugh.

"Let's put it this way: the rat plague is incurable, there's no cure. This is the only treatment, and I've written it down. Let's..."

Old Xun picked up the conversation: "Let's try anything, even if it's a dead end. If it works, great; if not, so be it, right, boss?"

Qin Xiaomi glanced at him sideways and nodded: "That's right, that's exactly it."

Madam Guan spoke up: "I trust millet. Besides, the rat plague is something unknown to us. It's already a great help that millet can give us a direction for treatment. We can't deny it just because we don't understand it."

"Xiaomi's actions demonstrate her commitment to doing her best. In the face of a major disaster, she fulfilled her responsibility as a human being, and we should follow suit to ensure that this work continues."

"Because this is not only about fighting for our lives, but also about fighting for the lives of all the people of the Great Wei."

“If the rat plague is true, all the people of our Northeast State may die. But if the plague is not eradicated, it will not die; it will spread to the capital. Even if the city is massacred to eradicate the disease, it may still reignite.”

"What do we do when it reignites? Continue the massacre to starve it to death?"

"Commander Ling, I will submit a memorial to Your Majesty, requesting that you mobilize the entire Wei Dynasty to try to make this medicine... I believe that as long as we find the ingredients in the prescription and follow the steps in the prescription, our Great Wei Dynasty can make this medicine!"

Qin Xiaomi nodded... With the full strength of the nation, it can definitely be made, because the first generation of streptomycin appeared in the 19th century of the first era, when technology was not so advanced and was still very backward.

What are the difficulties in producing streptomycin?

It's not about making, it's about discovering!
"Porous sponges, actinomycetes, and actinomycete metabolites have always existed. For example, various red, blue, white, and black molds have also always existed, and many people have seen them. It's just that no one could discover their uses and applications before."

"Now that's how it's used, even if you fail, it's still a new clue in the medical field."
