Princess Lingbi has been really tired recently. After her hard work, instead of improving the situation in Yanhua Mansion, she can only watch many people die from diseases one by one.
This made her physically and mentally exhausted, and her hair on her temples was turning slightly white.
Princess Lingbi, who has not slept for two consecutive days, is still insisting on dispensing medicines for many patients.
Although these ancient medicines are not very effective, they can alleviate the situation to some extent and are the only comfort at present.
It's just that due to excessive fatigue, I can't hold it any longer.
I felt my body became heavier. After all, I couldn't resist my sleepiness, so I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
In a trance, she saw that she was in a sea of flowers. There was a pavilion in the sea of flowers, and a graceful god was sitting in the pavilion, smiling and greeting her.
"Brother Ye, do you have anything to do with me?"
Seeing her appearance, Ye Ming handed the tea cup on the table to her and said:
"I haven't seen you for a few days. My dear friend, you feel a lot haggard. Let's drink a cup of tea to relieve yourself."
Princess Lingbi was also polite. After thanking her, she drank the cup of tea.
Although I was in a dream, this cup of tea felt like I was actually drinking it.
After drinking the tea, I felt refreshed and the feeling of fatigue was instantly gone.
After seeing that her condition had recovered a lot, Ye Ming didn't waste any words. He briefly talked about cowpox and asked her to come over to him immediately to prepare for research on specific methods to eliminate smallpox.
Princess Lingbi was overjoyed when she heard this and repeatedly expressed that she would leave immediately.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a trance. When he opened his eyes, he was still in the same place.
Put down what you are doing and immediately call Zhu Maojiao and Liu Yunniang.
This time the matter was urgent, and without any regard for etiquette, he just let Zhumaojiao carry him there quickly, while the others quickly followed.
Even though the pig-haired legs are fat and ugly, they carry a fragrant air when running on their backs. There are also butterflies appearing and disappearing around them, making them look very dreamy.
As a flexible pig demon, Pig Hairy Foot moves quickly, even if it carries a person on its back, it is as fast as the wind.
Speeding all the way to Ye Ming's village, he saw several people waiting here.
Zhu Maojiao put the person down, and Princess Lingbi immediately stepped forward to communicate with Ye Ming.
This time Ye Ming talked about cowpox in detail, saying that cowpox can be spread artificially to other people and this method can be used to fight smallpox.
Princess Lingbi asked if there was a way to spread the message without using magic.
After all, there are only a few people who know magic, and most of them still have to rely on manpower to complete it.
Ye Ming had thought about this on her way here.
His initial idea was to turn cowpox into medicine for patients to take.
Princess Lingbi immediately tried to prick the cowpox on the calf and use the "poisonous water" as medicine.
As for patients, it's easy to find them, they are everywhere in the village.
When the villagers saw Princess Lingbi wearing a gauze scarf and gauze clothes, they knew that this was the doctor who saved people.
It's interesting to say that when doctors first came out with this kind of outfit, many people thought it was unlucky, but now when they see people dressed like this coming to save people, they all feel hopeful.
The cowpox "poison water" was used as medicine and was taken by a patient with mild symptoms of smallpox.
After taking it, there was no performance.
Ye Ming used his clairvoyance to look at it and found that the ingested cowpox "poisonous water" was digested just like ordinary food and had very limited effect.
Princess Lingbi learned of this and asked if there were other ways.
Ye Ming thought for a while and said, there is still one, but it depends on whether others dare to try it.
I saw him dip a silver needle into the "poisonous water" of cowpox and handed it to Princess Lingbi:
"Prick the patient's arm with a silver needle and let the cowpox poison flow directly into the body."
Princess Lingbi didn't doubt what he said, and she was going to find someone to try it right away.
But when the villagers heard that silver needles would be used to put "poison" into their bodies, they were all afraid and did not dare to try it.
Princess Lingbi couldn't find anyone who dared to try, and she was a little anxious.
He was so excited that he targeted himself and stabbed himself in the arm.
"Brother Ye, how are you?"
Ye Ming checked her situation with his eyes, and then said:
"The method is fine, but the amount of 'poisonous water' entering the body at one time is too little. If it is used against ordinary smallpox, it will be fine.
But in the face of the epidemic, the amount of smallpox was somewhat insufficient, and it needed to be pricked many times. "
"Those who are healthy will have no problem, but those who are weak may not be able to withstand such repeated acupuncture."
Princess Lingbi frowned and said.
This matter is not difficult to solve for Ye Ming, he is a master of weapon refining.
For simple utensils, you can make them easily without using a stove or cauldron.
On the spot, he used a silver needle and a thumb-sized bamboo tube to pinch out something.
The small bamboo tube at the back end of this thing can hold a sufficient amount of "poisonous water", and there is a piston for pressing.
The front silver needle is different, it is hollow.
After piercing the body, press the rear piston to send all the internal "poisonous water" into the patient's body.
After making this thing, give it to Princess Lingbi.
After installing the "poisonous water", Princess Lingbi tried to inject herself with the needle again.
This time, all the "poisonous water" in the small bamboo tube was integrated into the body.
Ye Ming observed with his clairvoyance and found that it was indeed effective.
He also used magic to induce the outbreak of cowpox.
Soon, Princess Lingbi developed a cowpox reaction, but under Ye Ming's urging, she soon returned to normal.
Looking again, I found that the power of merit in Princess Lingbi's body that had been resisting the epidemic was no longer blocking the epidemic.
And although the disease that had no resistance was successfully added to her body, it could no longer affect her.
After confirming that there was no problem, Ye Ming smiled and said:
"This method works."
In fact, Princess Lingbi also felt the changes in herself, and she cried with joy when she knew that she had really found a way to eliminate smallpox.
As soon as the tears are wiped away, the villagers need to be injected with needles again.
Seeing this, Ye Ming stopped her and said:
"After the needle enters the body, it carries the 'qi' of the previous person. It cannot be used directly on another person, otherwise it may cause unpredictable diseases."
"Then what should we do? Does one person have to use one?"
"It stands to reason, but there are not that many needles available right now. You can clean the needles with strong alcohol to eliminate the remaining 'qi' on them, and it will work."
Just at this time, Liu Yunniang and other large groups of people arrived, and Princess Lingbi immediately asked them to get strong alcohol and tried to treat everyone with this method.
As for the source of cowpox's "poisonous water", it is easy to solve.
As an important labor force, cattle are available in every village, and some villages even have several cows.
Just considering that not all cows suffer from cowpox, Ye Ming ordered Yao Jiandong and Hua Bing to lead the underworld to spread cowpox among cows.
Try to get all the cows infected with cowpox, and that should be enough.
Later, the method of making the special "hollow needle" that had just been improvised was passed on.
The guards rushed to report the matter to Gao Xide, the prefect of the city.
When Gao Xide heard about it, he immediately mobilized the whole government to cooperate in the fight against smallpox.
Mr. Bai even personally went to the smelting plant to supervise the smelting of "hollow needles".
It's just that the initial mold making is very difficult and may take two days.
Once the mold is made and mass-produced, it is no problem at all.
After Ye Ming found the cure for cowpox, he felt relieved.
But I didn't expect that something unexpected would happen.
After seeing the method of cowpox, an old doctor who came later said that maybe not only cows, but also the pox of those who survived smallpox could be tried.
I have to say that what the old doctor said was very reasonable. Princess Lingbi immediately found the man in the village known as "Kang Mazi".
I tried to take some pox "poison water" from this person and use it on others, and found that it was no problem. It was as effective as cowpox in resisting smallpox.
This made everyone happy and full of hope.
After successfully mobilizing the mortals, Ye Ming and others separated from Princess Lingbi and others, and directly summoned General Bingsha, Elder Guangxian, the five people from Zhulin, Jing'an, Chongzhun, etc. to the City God's Office through messengers from various places.
After gathering these people, Ye Ming didn't talk nonsense and directly talked about the two methods that can now be used to fight smallpox. Ye Ming called them the "cowpox method" and "variolus method."
But there is a big problem that needs to be solved.
That is, it is useful for people who are not yet sick and those with mild symptoms, but for those who are already seriously ill, vaccination with "pox" will not have much effect.
Ye Ming knew that this should be caused by the smallpox epidemic himself, so he had to find a way to limit the other party's wanton performance.
After everyone understood Ye Ming's thoughts, they all started thinking about ways.
Taoist Chongzhun thought for a while and said:
"Pindao knows a few formations to suppress pain, but the range they can affect is too small and not useful at all."
When Taoist Master Jing'an heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he said:
"Junior Brother's words reminded me that I know there is a spell that can suppress the current situation."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at him.
Taoist priest Jing'an didn't show off and said directly:
"Using the 'Tiangang Thunder Fire Array' to gather the power of thunder and fire and spread it over a large area, we can surely suppress the spread of the epidemic and buy more time.
It’s just that the formation itself is not easy to arrange. Do you have enough materials now..."
Taoist Priest Jing'an said, listing the required materials, which indeed cost a lot.
And if they want to set up a large formation, the consumption will be doubled.
Ye Ming reached out and knocked on the table, and then said,
"I do have some of the necessary materials, but I can't get them all."
This matter is somewhat difficult to handle.
None of the five people in Zhulin had much wealth and no materials at hand.
Although Elder Guangxian came from a large faction, like Taoist Jing'an and others, he did not bring so much material.
Not to mention General Bingsha, the soldiers and armors are all made of night light.
It's obviously too late for everyone to go back to get the materials now. When you come back and refine the formation, the people will be almost dead.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Ye Ming remembered a sect——
Baozhenguan.
This sect is the official stationed sect in Yanhua Prefecture. Although it lost a large number of disciples in the earthquake and subsequent battles, as a sect that is good at refining weapons, there should be no shortage of materials.
He did what he thought of, and went directly to Baozhen Temple to see Zhenren Zhongtai again.
I haven't seen him for two years, and this person is still the same, but there are a lot of people in the temple withering away. It seems that it will only be a matter of time before he declines.
After learning about Ye Ming's intention, Zhenren Zhongtai immediately expressed his willingness to provide materials to help him overcome this disaster.
Zhenren Zhongtai felt a little ashamed and believed that Baozhenguan did not participate in these two incidents due to lack of manpower. If he could contribute at this time, he could be regarded as worthy of the people of Yanhua Prefecture.
After getting enough materials, Ye Ming returned and worked with Taoist Master Jing'an and Taoist Chongzhun to refine the formation flags needed for the Tiangang Thunder Fire Formation.
Ye Ming was still a little excited to do this.
I still remember the shock when I saw Taoist Zhunzhun burn the ghost king of Yishan to death in his "Earth Fire Burning Formation".
Although he no longer takes the "Earth Fire Burning Evil Formation" seriously, he is still looking forward to the "Tiangang Thunder Fire Formation".
With the addition of Ye Ming, the 'loose immortal', the formation flag refining speed was very fast, and seventy-two formation flags were refined in less than three days.
During this period, Ye Ming was able to see the Taoist's ability to refine weapons.
Although this guy is good at fighting, his weapon refining skills are beyond compare, even those of Taoist priest Jing'an are inferior to him.
But Taoist Taoist Chongzhun was even more shocked. He didn't expect that his half-life experience in refining weapons could not be compared to a city god who was not a member of the Taoist sect. He felt that this was a really big blow.
Anyway, the formation flag is finally done, and the next step is to set up the formation.
How much power this formation can exert depends on the ability of the people in the main formation.
Originally, the best candidate for the main team was Taoist Master Jing'an, but this man has not yet become an immortal and cannot take on this important task for the time being.
After everyone discussed it, it was decided that Elder Guangxian, who was endowed with the power of compassion and merit, would lead the formation, and everyone else would take their own corner and work together to promote the formation.
Ye Ming did not participate in the formation. As the city god who used the power of wish, he was independent of the formation.
After everyone was in position, they worked together to activate the formation...
