I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times

As October begins, the temperature drops sharply. Today, it is drizzling and the weather is gloomy.

"Ah!"

Many soldiers defending the city showed symptoms of sneezing.

Xiao Che frowned, rubbed his itchy nose and said, "Today we will go another ten miles north to meet the grain delivery team."

According to the date calculation, the food and fodder support sent by General Zhang should arrive.

The two groups of people walked towards each other and soon saw each other. Jiang Ming's militia's mission of transporting grain was successfully completed.

"Ah!"

Many militiamen also had symptoms of sneezing, but these farmers just thought that their wives and children missed them and didn't take it seriously at all. Following Wang Lie's arrangement, they could return home after one night in Nandu County.

But the next day, most of the militiamen felt unwell, had fever, vomited, and could not stand steadily.

The militiamen were arranged in several tents outside the military camp, and many of them had dry throats and difficulty breathing. Jiang Ming's face flushed and his body became heavy.

"Brother, the military doctor is coming soon!"

Jiang Yue held down Jiang Ming who was trying to show off. Then she looked around the tent and saw that the militiamen were all in varying degrees of discomfort.

Wang Lie brought a few soldiers to check: "What's the situation here?"

After asking, he looked at the dozen militiamen lying on the ground and shook his head: "It's really weird, how come more than half of them are sick at the same time? It's true that the local climate and soil nurture the local people, and the climate and soil of Nandu County can't nurture us."

A soldier echoed, "Yes, Commander, it's already the end of October. The mosquitoes over there have long been frozen to death, but it's not the same here. There are still so many at night that I can't sleep because of the bites."

After saying that, he stretched out his arm to scratch his back.

"That's right..." I was also bitten a lot.

After hearing what the soldier said, Jiang Yue went to see Jiang Ming. He also saw many red bites on his exposed skin. He thought to himself: I will wait until the military doctor comes and ask him to give me some herbs or something to drive away the mosquitoes.

The military doctor came in a hurry and knew the situation after taking a look at the militiamen in the tent. This was the fifth tent he had seen this morning. They were all weak, listless, and had flushed faces. These were symptoms of being infected by miasma. Not only the militiamen transporting grain, but also the soldiers in the camp were infected by miasma.

"This is miasma. Boiled mugwort and calamus in water can alleviate the symptoms." The military doctor looked accustomed to it and spoke of this miasma as if it were commonplace.

"Miasma? What's going on?" Jiang Yue was alert. Miasma is poisonous. She had only seen it on TV. Isn't it the killer weapon of some ethnic minority?

"Miasma is a harmful gas that permeates the mountains and forests in the south. This poisonous gas is like smoke and fog, colorless and odorless. Our soldiers will be infected if they are not careful. This poisonous gas is easily produced in a hot and humid environment. Our army has learned prevention methods from the people. We only need to fumigate mugwort and calamus every day in the hot season and wear medicine bags when going out. If you are accidentally infected with miasma, the same applies. You can also take some heat-clearing herbs. However, the weather is much cooler now, and there shouldn't be a large area of ​​miasma..."

This is not a military secret. When the poisonous May comes here, every household hangs mugwort to drive away miasma, and wears calamus leaves, mugwort leaves, etc.

After the military doctor finished speaking, he twirled his beard, looked at Wang Lie and said, "Young man, I see that you are in good health. This poison gas doesn't seem to have affected you. Send someone to go to the camp with my medicine boy to get some herbs... After boiling them, everyone should drink a bowl every morning and evening..."

Wang Lie thanked the military doctor and sent two soldiers who were not infected with the malaria to follow the medicine boy to get the herbs.

Then he said to the military doctor: "Doctor, to be honest, I feel cold all over and my muscles ache. Can you please treat me?"

"General Wang, put your wrist here. I'll examine it."

The military doctor placed his hand on Wang Lie's wrist, his brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed: "It's okay, General Wang also has symptoms of miasma, but the symptoms are mild. I've got some herbs to fumigate the area where you live, and then you can drink a bowl of the decoction and you'll be fine."

After the military doctor left, the soldiers quickly brought the herbs over. Jiang Yue took a look and found that they were indeed dried mugwort and calamus. These two herbs do have detoxifying effects. The soldiers took the burning herbs and fumigated the tent inside and out, and the room was suddenly filled with smoke and fire.

There were not enough people, so Jiang Yue took on the task of boiling the medicine herself. After the medicine was boiled, she gave a bowl of it to the militiamen in each tent, and she also drank a bowl herself. Prevention.

But the next day Jiang Ming suddenly developed symptoms of high fever and vomiting. When he went to check on other militiamen, some of them had improved, but some were still shivering like Jiang Ming.

"Uncle Meng, what's up?"

"Well, I feel much better. Jiang Ming, what's going on?"

After Meng Dazhuang drank two bowls of medicine, his health improved significantly.

"Go get the military doctor."

After drinking two bowls of medicine, Meng Dazhuang felt significantly better and felt much more relaxed. He immediately went to the barracks to ask for a military doctor.

Jiang Yue looked at Jiang Ming's curled-up body and judged that he was in the chill period and his body temperature was rising. He needed to lower his body temperature as soon as possible. He ordered the militiamen who were in good health to fetch water and apply a towel to his forehead to cool him down physically.

After a long time, the military doctor was not called. When Wang Lie sent soldiers to inquire, he learned that the soldiers in the camp also had symptoms of high fever, and some were even having convulsions, and they were too busy to handle it.

Although the military doctor did not come, he gave me a lot of antipyretic drugs, such as forsythia, isatis root, honeysuckle...

"Why is this happening?" Jiang Yue was puzzled as she took care of Jiang Ming.

"How do you feel, Wang Lingjun?"

"My symptoms are much better than yesterday."

Some people who were infected with miasma had their symptoms alleviated by fumigating with moxa leaves and drinking medicine, but why did others' condition worsen? Is there something wrong with the medicine? There must be nothing wrong with these medicines, so... the problem lies in the symptoms!"

He trusted Jiang Yue and asked, "Can't healthy people take these medicines? Yesterday, Li Niu and Wang Er who followed me were fine and strong as bulls. I ordered them to drink the medicine, but today they can't even stand up?"

yesterday......

Jiang Yue recalled that the two soldiers around Wang Lie went to get the herbs, but they got sick after drinking them? But she drank them too?

Suddenly, Jiang Yue thought of something.

"Everyone, check if these brothers with fever have any signs of mosquito bites."

The militiamen, whose condition worsened, were not only infected by miasma, but also contracted another disease.

"There were traces of mosquito bites on Liu Tie's body."

"Ge Sanhu also has..."

"Meng Erzhuang also has..."

"Jiang Youtian also has..."

......

Jiang Yue made a preliminary judgment in her mind: "These people, including my brother and your two soldiers, have contracted another disease. The initial symptoms are similar to those of miasma, with fever and general weakness. But in the later stages, they will have chills, high fever, vomiting, convulsions... and this disease is spread by mosquitoes!"

Wang Lie nodded, admiring Jiang Yue's calmness in her heart for being able to sort out the situation in such a short time.

"Miss Jiang also knows medical skills? What should we do next?"

Jiang Yue shook her head: "I have never learned medical skills, I have only read some medical books. Commander Wang, tell the military doctor about our situation first. Maybe the military doctor has a solution."
