"hehe..."
For Yang Yu, who showed his straight nature after chasing a girl, Li Ang could only say that you can do it, brother.
Now in the fourth year of school, Li Ang is getting busier and busier, and there are very few opportunities to go out to have a meal with friends like now.
The two were eating side dishes in the restaurant and chatting about recent events.
Song Shaoyuan and You Xiao are planning to have a baby and are now in the naming stage. I haven't decided on a girl's name yet. For boys, they might be called Song Shuhang or Song Qingshu.
They are all very familiar names...
A doctor who taught Li Ang and his family history in the past died because of his old age.
Before he died, he finally made a joke after being serious all his life.
He asked his children not to bury him but to cremate him. And his ashes were pressed into dice. In the future, when future generations feel confused, throw the dice and regard it as his life advice.
...
The time for chatting is always short. Before you know it, it is getting late. The two of them pay and go downstairs, each going back to their respective homes.
In Jinchengfang Mansion, Chai Chai was still writing his arithmetic homework with a sad face, complaining as he wrote, "I can't understand why the people in the arithmetic questions are so weird.
The pool manager was filling water and waterproofing at the same time, wasting water like crazy, and was not afraid of being beaten by his boss.
The old farmer puts chickens and rabbits in a cage and is not afraid of the poultry and livestock getting sick. And how big a cage can hold dozens of chickens and rabbits?
There is also the Lingqi motorcycle driver who always drives at a constant speed and is never late. He can even accurately estimate the speed of another motorcycle and instantly calculate the time when the two motorcycles miss each other.
Is he a mind master in Xunyun Realm? If you're so good at math, why don't you help the old farmer above count chickens? "
Ouyang Shi, who was also doing homework on the side, heard Chai Chai's crazy complaints. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. It was very difficult to hold it in.
"I'm back."
Li Ang took off his coat and hung it on the hanger. Seeing Chai Chai complaining repeatedly, he smiled and rubbed her hair, "Have you had dinner yet?"
"without."
Chai Chai shook his head like a rattle, "There are a lot of homework in the new semester. Master, why don't you give me a copy of your homework from last year?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Ang put a note on Chai Chai's forehead and said, "Do your own thing. You have to be independent."
Chai Chai covered his forehead and pouted: "Huh, I used to help you get dressed, and I washed your pants and quilts. Now you can do your own thing."
"..."
Li Ang smacked his lips. Although he wanted to refute, he couldn't find any words.
Fortunately, at this time, the sound of a carriage stopping was heard outside the door.
Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the courtyard and opened the door, "Who is it?"
Standing outside the courtyard gate was an acquaintance, Yan Zhou, the grandson of Yan Yundang, the eldest grandson of Duke Yan.
"Yan Dalang?"
Li Ang asked in confusion: "Why are you here? What's the matter?"
According to Chang'an rules, the eldest son of a meritorious family like Yanzhou must serve in Jinwu Guard.
Li Ang hasn't seen him for a while.
"My second uncle is sick."
Li Ang has a very good relationship with the Yan family, and Yan Zhou was not polite and said anxiously.
Yan Hu, the second son of Duke Yan Yundang, held a military position in Shuozhou. Shuozhou is located in the north of Yu State and is an important transportation route to the Anbei Protectorate. Its geographical location is very important.
Some time ago, Yan Hu sent a letter back, saying that livestock in the local pasture had died of illness, including more than a dozen war horses.
It is the duty of the army to care for and raise war horses. If the war horses die in batches, it will become an accident.
Yan Yundang then went to make some connections, bought some large doses of allicin specifically for livestock, and asked his servants to send it back to Shuozhou.
I originally thought that the matter would end here, but unexpectedly, two more urgent letters were sent today.
The letter mentioned that several herders responsible for grazing and caring for livestock in Shuozhou Ranch have all fallen ill. The condition develops quickly, unlike ordinary diseases.
According to the investigation results of the soldiers, it turned out that several people in the farms near the pasture fell ill and died quickly a month ago.
When sending this letter, Yan Hu himself felt a little uncomfortable and was bedridden.
Yan Zhou pursed his lips and said, "Aye wonders if this is some of the 'zoonotic...' diseases mentioned in the Academy's publications."
Li Ang asked: "Zonotic infectious diseases?"
"That's right!"
Yanzhou nodded, "Shuozhou is a lower state with hundreds of thousands of people. The local state capital is not qualified to have close insects, so it cannot contact Erlang immediately to confirm the situation.
However, although the second uncle has no talent for martial arts, he has been soaking in medicinal baths since he was a child to exercise his muscles and bones, and his physique is almost the same as that of an acquired martial artist.
To make him feel uncomfortable, this disease must be extraordinary.
That's why my family asked me to come over and ask. "
Li Ang thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any more specific information?"
Yanzhou didn't react for a moment, "Huh?"
"It's the species of sick animals and the state of the bodies of those who died."
Li Ang said.
There are many zoonotic infectious diseases, such as foot-and-mouth disease, tuberculosis, porcine epidemic diarrhea, goat encephalitis, etc.
The causes and symptoms of each disease are different.
Before seeing the specific patient or anatomy file, Li Ang couldn't guess which disease it was.
"oh oh."
Yanzhou reacted, "The letter said that the sick livestock animals include cattle, horses, sheep, donkeys, dogs, etc.
Whether it is livestock or people, they will die within three or four days after the onset of the disease, and the incidence rate is very high.
According to the soldier's report, there was a patient who was fine a day ago and had no abnormalities on his body.
In just one day, his skin was bleeding extensively, with ecchymoses all over his body. After his death, his body seemed to have turned...purple? "
Purple...corpse?
Li Ang's pupils shrank slightly,
Shuozhou is located in a remote area, and its administrative level is not particularly high, so the local disease has not received timely attention - Yu State is too big, with more than 700 prefectures, and countless diseases appear and disappear every day.
It is simply impossible to devote a lot of attention to every disease.
What's more, now is still a critical moment to prepare for war against Zhou.
The onset is acute, the condition is severe, and the mortality rate is high. None of these descriptions sounded right.
"The skin is purple, which should be caused by abnormalities in the blood system..."
Li Ang thought for a moment and said, "You go back first. I'll make some preparations at home and take the evening Lingqi motorcycle to Daizhou. Then from Daizhou to Shuozhou."
"good!"
Seeing that Li Ang agreed, Yanzhou breathed a long sigh of relief, got on the carriage, and left Jinchengfang.
"Leaving tonight? So urgent?"
Chai Chai couldn't help but asked in a low voice.
"Zonotic diseases have the risk of spreading over a large area, and the sooner the better. Early detection, early suppression, and early resolution."
Li Ang shook his head and said, his heart sinking a little bit.
Hopefully, it's not the disease he was thinking of.
