In Zhenzhou City, the story of a young doctor who went to a slaughterhouse and bought hundreds of pig eyes spread quickly among the people in the market.
People in Zhenzhou never eat pig eyeballs, and I have never heard of anyone spending money to collect them - this in itself is a weird thing with a gimmick, not to mention that the doctor also claimed that he would use pig eyeballs to make medicine to treat Chengnan Mu. More than a hundred horses in the Supervisory Department were infected with the disease.
"When we return to Langjun, the front door and courtyard door of the security hall are closed, so we can't see what's going on inside. But Li Ang goes out every morning, takes his medicine box and rides a borrowed horse to the pastoral prison. Si, go home in half an hour."
In the backyard of Jifutang Pharmacy, the clerk Yu Liu was reporting to Yu Miaoshui, "As of yesterday, it was already the fourth day."
"Well..."
Yu Miaoshui frowned. He had long considered the Security Hall to be in his pocket, and he didn't want to see any unexpected changes. "What's in his medicine box? Have you found out?"
"No, every time Li Risheng goes to the Animal Husbandry Supervision Department, he will have people lock the stables so that no one can see them."
Yu Liu hesitated for a moment and replied: "I heard from the shepherds in the Animal Husbandry and Supervision Department...the tempers of those sick horses have improved a lot, and their eyes don't seem to be as red as before."
When Yu Miaoshui heard this, his dark face became even more gloomy, looking like the bottom of a pot, "Humph."
"Lang Jun, what should we do?"
Yu Liudao: "Li Risheng announced yesterday that he would start curing all the more than a hundred military horses today outside the gate of the Animal Husbandry Supervisor Department.
Many people in the city will go to watch it, and even the Cuju competition will outshine the limelight.
If he really gets the job done, the Pastoral Supervision Bureau will reward him with a hundred dollars. "
"Except for one hundred strings, don't you still have fifty strings? Why panic?"
Yu Miaoshui scolded his servant, but he felt a little unsure in his heart.
He is a doctor himself and knows how important reputation is for a doctor.
If Li Ang really cured hundreds of military horses at once, would he still have to worry about the security hall having no customers in the future?
Dang——dang——dang——
The sound of copper bells resounded throughout the city, and the hour of Chenzheng (8 o'clock in the morning) has arrived.
"Prepare your horse, I want to see what tricks that kid has up his sleeve."
Yu Miaoshui patted the armrest of the wooden chair and stood up. At the same time, many idle people in Zhenzhou City also walked towards the direction of the Animal Husbandry Supervisory Department in the south of the city.
Some were holding bird cages, some were holding snacks, and some were even bringing their families to watch the fun.

"Master, are you really okay?"
In the security hall, Chai Cuiqiao helped Li Ang adjust his collar rather uneasily.
"It's fine."
Li Ang smiled and patted Chai Cuiqiao's head, squatted down, and looked at the objects in the wooden box again.
Finely crushed ice cubes covering the bottom of the box;
Ten porcelain bottle airtight containers the size of soju bottles;
two bottles of pure wine;
and five copper syringes.
These five syringes were ordered by him and Wang Yamen at the blacksmith shop that day.
The barrel part of the syringe is made of copper, and the hollow needle part is made of softer silver with a small amount of copper. When making it, first put a solid needle made of tin inside, and then burn it with a flame to melt the tin with a lower melting point to obtain a hollow needle.
Although compared to modern syringes, it seems extremely crude and crude, but it can be used, but it is a little expensive - the cost of making each needle is the same, and out of seventeen needles, only eleven can be used.
After finishing preparations, Li Ang raised his hand with a smile, gently squeezed Chai Cuiqiao's worried face, put the wooden box on his back, and walked towards the wooden door of the backyard.
Squeak.
The wooden door opened, and Wang Yamen, who was about to knock on the door, had his palms hanging in the air, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Let's go."
Li Ang didn't take it seriously, locked the wooden door, mounted his horse, and headed south.
————
"Where are the people? It's been a quarter of an hour after Chenzheng, why haven't they come yet? Are they just playing tricks on us?"
"Hey, there are so many military horses, this head, and this coat color, it's really spectacular."
"Biro, cherry Biro, pear Biro, apple Biro..."
"Aye, I want to eat Bilo."
The street where the Animal Husbandry Supervisory Department is located in the south of the city is crowded with many citizens of Yaozhou. It is bustling and bustling, just like a market.
More than twenty government officials holding water and fire sticks stood in front of the crowd to block the citizens.
Behind the Yamen servants, there were more than a hundred sick military horses - all the military horses were tied under the courtyard wall of the Animal Husbandry Supervision Department, their eyes were covered with blindfolds, and their ears were plugged with cotton balls to prevent them from panicking when they heard the noise of people. out of control.
"It's coming, it's finally coming."
"Is that the doctor? Why are you so young?"
Amidst the noise, Li Ang rode his horse, followed behind Wang Yamen, passed through the crowd, and came to the door of the Pastoral Supervisor to dismount.
Inspector Xun had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Li Ang, he asked softly: "Doctor Li, what you want is ready. How sure are you today?"
"Mr.
Li Ang smiled slightly. During the past four days, he came to the Animal Husbandry Supervision Department every day to clean the conjunctival sac of the sick military horse with his own saline solution, which had alleviated the symptoms of conjunctivitis and keratitis.
Otherwise, Superintendent Xun would not have agreed to let him treat more than a hundred military horses at a time in a downtown area.
Without any more nonsense, Li Ang opened the wooden box, took out the pure wine bottle and handed it to Wang Yamen.
"Please also ask Wang Yamen to pour me some pure wine to wash my hands."
Under the confused eyes of the onlookers, Li Ang carefully cleaned his hands with alcohol, then picked up the syringe and drew some transparent liquid from the porcelain bottle.
"呲——"
Li Ang pointed the syringe toward the sky, squeezed the syringe, and pushed out the excess air and some liquid medicine.
Seeing the horrible-shaped syringe, the crowd heard slight exclamations. However, what was even more shocking was that Li Ang took the syringe and walked slowly towards a military horse.
"Please hold the horse's head, please, and pull the blindfold away a little."
Li Ang gently asked the two government officials to hold the army horse's head, and then took a step forward. Before everyone could react, he inserted a needle into the corner of the army horse's eye socket, and pushed the syringe slowly and steadily.
"ah!"
"hiss!"
"Hey!"
Such a sharp needle was inserted into the edge of the eye socket of the military horse. All the onlookers exclaimed as if they were feeling what they were experiencing. Some parents even reached out to cover the eyes of their children.
Li Ang didn't pay attention to the sounds from the outside world. After pushing the syringe, he took it out in time and retreated.
"First one, done."
He breathed a sigh of relief and put the syringe into the pure wine prepared in advance by the Animal Supervision Department. He washed it with pure wine first, then put it into an iron pot, steamed it with water, and sterilized it with steam.
"Then, the second one."
Li Ang took out a new syringe, drew the solution from the porcelain bottle, and slowly walked towards the confused second military horse.
The porcelain bottle contains the only eye drops of this era.
Eye drops extracted from pig eye tissue fluid.
