Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

What he is talking about now is not insect medicine or poisonous insects, but microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.

So after Doctor Xu finished speaking, he immediately changed the topic.

"Doctor Xu, what I'm going to say next may subvert your understanding, but it is indeed true."

"A large portion of people who are sick in this world are infected by things even smaller than poisonous insects."

"Even the wounded soldiers on the battlefield, whose wounds fester and fester, are also caused by these tiny lives that are invisible to the naked eye."

Having said that, Wei Wu paused to give Doctor Xu time to digest what he said.

After a pause, he continued:

"This kind of life is collectively called microorganisms. It is because of their existence that food rots, wounds fester, and people become sick."

"Fortunately, most microorganisms cannot tolerate high temperatures, so whether it's drinking water or eating food, it's best to cook it thoroughly."

Hearing this, Doctor Xu finally came to his senses.

However, he didn't quite believe what Wei Wu said and had many doubts in his mind.

"Uncle Changle, although I know that illness comes from the mouth, what you said is too shocking. Xu Shu cannot understand it."

"If there really are Gu...microorganisms that are difficult to detect with the naked eye, how did you detect and know about them, and how can you prove it?"

"It's very simple!" Wei Wu pushed the microscope in front of Doctor Xu. "This will prove it."

Doctor Xu looked at the strange thing in front of him with doubt, not knowing what it was.

Deep down, he really didn't believe what Wei Wu said.

But Wei Wu's expression now was too confident, and there was also the previous cowpox incident.

So even though he had doubts in his heart, he still listened to Wei Wu patiently.

At this moment, Wei Wu took out a small transparent piece and rubbed it on Doctor Xu's palm.

He then placed it under the microscope and spoke to Doctor Xu only after it was adjusted.

"Now let's see how many microorganisms live in the palm of your hand."

Then, under Wei Wu's guidance, Doctor Xu put his eyes close to the observation port of the microscope.

When those wriggling tiny creatures were reflected in his eyes through the microscope, Doctor Xu was shocked!

I was really scared!

Those strange-looking and moving little creatures actually live in the palm of your hand!

It took a long time for Doctor Xu to come back to his senses from the shock. He turned his neck stiffly and looked at Wei Wu.

"Chang, Chang Lebo, the microorganisms you mentioned really exist, and they exist in the palm of my hand!!"

“It’s not just in your palm, nor is it just in your palm. It’s in everyone’s body. It’s everywhere.”

As he spoke, Wei Wu stretched out his hand and waved it in the air, as if fiddling with the microorganisms.

"But that's not the point, because understanding them requires years of research and exploration."

"I'm saying this just to give Doctor Xu a basic understanding, and to help you spread a concept."

"Water must be boiled before drinking, and cloth used to wipe wounds must be boiled to kill microorganisms before use."

"This way, we can prevent many people from getting sick from drinking water and from dying from wound infections and suppuration!"

Wei Wu didn't understand medicine, he just knew some basic common sense.

However, even these basic common sense are definitely helpful in this era.

You should know that in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country specifically promoted the idea of ​​boiling water before drinking.

After verifying what Wei Wu said about the microorganisms, Doctor Xu felt like he had opened the door to a new world.

He insisted on chatting with Wei Wu and wouldn't let him leave, as if he would not stop until he had squeezed him dry.

In the end, everything that Wei Wu knew was revealed by Doctor Xu.

It is even said that when a woman is giving birth, forceps can help her deliver the baby smoothly.
