chapter 9 Occupational disease committed

"Miss Cyrus, please forgive me for speaking frankly, is Young Master West really as talented as you said?"

Zachary West left for an excuse, and Hank Ferber asked frankly. Although the contact time between the two was brief, according to his observation, Zachary West conversation was frivolous and his behavior was uninhibited, and he did not look like a learned person at all.

"Young Master Ferber, when I first met Young Master West, Lilac had the same idea as you. However... he was the only one who hurt my self-esteem."

Although Lilac Cyrus is young, she is an examiner at a first-grade academy. She has met countless capable people, some of whom are even more knowledgeable than her.

However, no matter how outstanding the other party is, Lilac Cyrus can listen to them, understand and communicate with each other, but Zachary West's whims and whims are beyond her reach, and the arguments he puts forward leave her speechless, and she can't even finish a sentence. I can't even get a word in. As a result, she could only silently and carefully judge whether what he said was correct or wrong...

As soon as the unitary hour arrived, more than a hundred The servants of the Soames Mansion carried wooden tables and chairs into the garden. During a cup of tea, hundreds of dining tables were placed in the manor in an orderly manner. Immediately, The Soames Mansion's maids lined up in an orderly queue, carrying delicacies, like a long dragon playing with pearls, circling around the dining tables to set up the banquet.

In less than two quarters of an hour, Baiwei wine and food were presented to everyone. The delicacies of mountains and seas, phoenix marrow and dragon liver, made disciples from all sects salivate.

The banquet was arranged, and Merchant Soames led the elders of various sects into the garden, talking and laughing.

Directly above the southeastern part of the garden, there were six particularly luxurious banquet tables, with elders from various sects sitting among them one after another. Zachary West, Walter Peck, and other sect disciples stood at the back of the garden.

Merchant Soames wanted to invite Lilac Cyrus to the guest of honour, but the girl declined politely due to her seniority.

"Today, all the Martial Arts World have come all the way to celebrate Su's birthday. Su Bisheng is truly a lucky star."

"Brother Su's words are true. Who among us in the world knows that Brother Su's good deeds and good deeds? He is a role model for our generation of chivalrous people. I hereby wish you blessings like the East China Sea and longevity as long as the Southern Mountains."

"I wish Brother Su a blessing as good as the East China Sea and a life as long as the Southern Mountains."

Elders Albert Bartley and Tang Yanzhong unanimously held their fists and congratulated each other. The disciples of various sects also followed the atmosphere, applauded and shouted, "I wish Senior Su is as blessed as the East China Sea and lives longer than the Southern Mountains." '.

"Okay, okay, Su is so lucky to have met so many fellow Taoists. Let's get drunk tonight!"

The birthday banquet officially started, and disciples from various sects immediately ran to the dining table, scrambling to grab the food. The chaotic scene was like a buffet canteen without queuing, which caught Zachary West a little off guard.

It is a custom in the world to drink large amounts of wine and eat meat, and all male disciples drink boldly to show off their hard-working manly demeanor and attract the attention of women. Even Walter Peck couldn't resist the enthusiastic invitations from disciples of various sects. He left Zachary West and rushed into the crowd, toasting and talking about the world...

Zachary West saw from a distance that the male disciples of various sects were not very hygienic. They didn't even wash their hands after wiping off sweat. They just grabbed the wine and meat on the table and feasted on them. They were frothing at the mouth and kept talking, and his appetite was suddenly greatly reduced.

"Young Master Zachary, aren't you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry anymore..."

Lilac Cyrus looked at Zachary West in a daze, and couldn't help but approach him with a small bowl of fish soup, curiously asking him why he didn't enjoy the banquet delicacies. However, Zachary West's answer touched her inspiration... He is not hungry now, which means he was still hungry just now. What is the reason why he is full without eating?

"As the saying goes, beauty is good for food. Wouldn't Mr. West lose his appetite for delicacies when he is surrounded by beauty?" Han Feng handed a stack of delicious food to Zachary West and Lilac Cyrus. There were several large pieces of barbecue and a few chicken legs on the plate.

"Thank you."Lilac Cyrus gracefully picked up a small piece of barbecue with her delicate fingers.

Zachary West saw the beauty wanting to open her mouth to taste the delicious food, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand to stop her...

"Mr. Ferber, have you washed your hands?"

"Mr. West, why do you say this? My hands are not dirty."

"Misfortune comes from the mouth, and disease comes from the mouth. There are many invisible microorganisms around us. If we don't pay attention to dietary hygiene, germs will invade our bodies and cause diseases."

"What are microorganisms?"Lilac Cyrus eyes lit up, and Zachary West said a new term that surprised her.

"The world is full of wonders. Microorganisms are tiny living organisms that are invisible to our eyes. There are countless microorganisms in a grain of dust. Although most microorganisms are harmless to us, if we do not pay attention to dietary hygiene, we will be infected by germs. , suffering from avian influenza, cholera and other diseases..."

"Cholera!"Hank Ferber expression changed drastically. Although he didn't know what bird flu was, the cholera plague was a major disaster throughout the ages. Every year, tens of thousands of civilians died from the cholera plague.

"Could it be that Young Master Zachary knows medical skills?"Lilac Cyrus was in high spirits. Apparently, she didn't expect that Zachary West also knew the root cause of cholera.

"I understand a little, I understand a little..."Zachary West was on the verge of crying. He really wanted to slap his big mouth a few times. He had already made up his mind that he would never talk about ridiculous knowledge in front of Lilac Cyrus. Who knew that the doctor's occupational disease would happen again? .

"Dare you ask Mr. West if you know how to prevent and cure cholera?"Hank Ferber immediately put down the food and wine in his hands and asked seriously.

"I don't know."Zachary West answered without thinking, but several medicinal formulas appeared in his mind.

"Mr. West, this matter is related to the people's livelihood in the world. Hank Ferber hopes that you can abandon your sectarian views and benefit the people of the world."

Zachary West's hesitation was obvious, and Hank Ferber mistakenly thought that he was unwilling to disclose the secret recipe for his own selfish interests.

"Lilac also hopes that Young Master Zachary will tell you frankly."

"What do you mean by singing in harmony? Are you joining forces to force a confession? I know the prescription and I will not tell you? It is precisely because it concerns the people's livelihood, so I can't talk nonsense. Who is responsible for the death of a doctor! Besides, you are not a doctor, I tell you it is useful ?"

Zachary West was inexplicably angry. Even if Hank Ferber suspected that he was hiding his secret skills, Lilac Cyrus didn't even trust him. It was really chilling.

"Young Master Zachary, please don't be angry. Lilac has little talent and little knowledge and cannot understand the master's intentions. However, cholera and plague are incurable diseases. Even if it is an ancient folk remedy with no basis, we are willing to try it even if there is only a little hope."

"Miss Cyrus father is the governor of Fulton City. If the medicine formula is useful, he can report it to the palace doctor for identification."

Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber move to understand each other with love and reason, hoping that Zachary West can sacrifice his personal self to fulfill his greater self. Regardless of whether his secret recipe is effective or not, they hope that he can tell the truth.

Zachary West had mixed feelings in his heart. Facing Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber, who looked solemn and caring about the world, he said it was not the case, and it was not the case if he did not say it. After a moment of silence for a stick of incense, Zachary West made up his mind, left the two of them behind, and hid in a corner of the garden to rest cross-legged.

However, Zachary West underestimated Lilac Cyrus perseverance. Even though he expressed his attitude that he would not accompany her, the girl still came to him conscientiously.

Looking at Zachary West who was sitting on the lawn without saying a word, Lilac Cyrus could not help but obediently approach him and silently put down the fish soup in her hand...

"Today we are all here to attend the Merchant Soames. You should put aside all your worries and have fun and drink and talk. It is Lilac who is not sensible and has caused the young master's displeasure. Why don't you let Lilac rub your shoulders as a way of keeping you company?"

Perhaps Lilac Cyrus realized that she had acted too hastily and made Zachary West unable to breathe, so she adopted a gentle approach to ease the tense atmosphere between the two. Anyway, we have a long time to come, so there is no need to rush to get to the bottom of things...

"The technique is pretty good. Do you often rub people's shoulders?"

"When dad is tired from dealing with affairs or unhappy, Lilac will rub his shoulders and back to relieve his fatigue."

"Don't treat me like an elder."

"Young Master and Lilac are both teachers and friends. Why not treat you as an elder?"

"It's okay to be friends, but I don't like you treating me as an elder. Because I'm still very young!"

"However, the master's knowledge is not in line with this young man. In fact, Lilac really wants to know where you learned so much incredible knowledge. Could it be that the martial arts books in Sword Manor contain all kinds of knowledge?"

"Lilac, there are some things that even I don't understand myself. I hope you won't ask too deeply."

"I understand. Lilac will no longer be reckless and force the young master to say things he doesn't want to say."

Lilac Cyrus was gentle, elegant, beautiful and generous. Three strikes and five divided by two calmed Zachary West dissatisfaction. However, just as Zachary West and Lilac Cyrus were chatting happily, a young man who didn't know the style hurriedly barged in.

"Mr. West, Miss Cyrus, I finally found you. Regarding the previous issue of cholera, I would like to ask Mr. West..."

"Young Master Ferber, since Young Master West has said that his prescription is not reliable, why don't we put it aside for the time being and ask for advice later."

"But... okay. Miss Cyrus is right. Mr. Ferber was confused for a moment. How can a plague disaster such as cholera be cured? I am so radical and rude that I made Mr. West laugh."

Lilac Cyrus finally understood and stood next to Zachary West to help him speak. Hank Ferber was also very humble. Realizing that he was rude, he immediately corrected his attitude and bowed and apologized sincerely.

However, the actions of Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber not only failed to ease Zachary West mood, but made him feel very sorry.

Growing up, Zachary West was looked down upon in Sword Manor. His fiancée hated him and everyone looked down upon him. Among the more than a thousand disciples in the village, few were willing to make friends with him, let alone as dedicated as Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber. Treat each other as friends.

Looking at the beautiful and elegant Lilac Cyrus and the graceful Hank Ferber, Zachary West suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of guilt. After a moment of silence, he exhaled helplessly...

"Mr. Ferber, Lilac, cholera is an acute diarrheal infectious disease. The cause is very simple. It is simply a lack of hygiene in diet, which allows the germs to take advantage of it. As long as you pay attention to cleanliness and do not swallow unclean things, you can prevent cholera. occur."

Zachary West suddenly spoke, the content of which surprised Lilac Cyrus, and Hank Ferber seized the opportunity to ask questions without shame.

"If there is an outbreak of cholera, how are we going to treat the patients?"

"Cholera patients are infected by bacteria and their intestines and stomach cannot absorb nutrients normally, so they continue to have diarrhea and vomiting, causing the body to become severely dehydrated and eventually collapse and die. When a cholera outbreak occurs, patients should be isolated immediately, the source of the pollution should be investigated, and the house should be cleaned with white vinegar to inhibit the regeneration of the bacteria. Then it depends on the condition and condition of the patient.”

Zachary West sorted out the memories in his mind and said calmly:

"Those with mild illness can use Chinese herbal medicines such as Huishao, Pinellia pinellia, almond, red Poria, ginseng, ginger, etc. to make "Liuhe Decoction", or use Dabupi, Angelica dahuricae, perilla, Platycodon grandiflorum, Patchouli, licorice, etc. Take "Huoxiang Zhengqi Powder". For those with severe illness, mix "Fuzi Lizhong Decoction" with ginseng, Atractylodes macrocephala, dried ginger, aconite, Zhigancao, etc. For those who are terminally ill, only intravenous infusion can be used. Stay safe for now..."
