Royal Road

"What? Five more people have been infected with typhoid in the west of the city?! Isn't that the Huren Bazaar?" Wang Wen was shocked when he heard this. The epidemic this year came too early, and it was just May. , Why is there news of the epidemic?

"Half a month ago, people in the suburbs of the city started to get sick. This time, they infected nearby businesses, and the number of patients suddenly increased." The doctor Jiang was much calmer than Wang Wen.

"What can I do then? Is it too late to leave Jinyang now?" They are rich and powerful, and they move into Zhuangzi in the mountains every summer to escape the heat and avoid the possible outbreak of plague by the way. It’s just that the epidemic came too early this year, and it was not just Wang Wen and Jinyang Gaomen who were trapped in the city in all likelihood.

"If you are scrambling to leave Jinyang, you may encounter an epidemic on the road. Moreover, there are so many refugees this year. If you run into it, you won't be able to prevent it!" Mr. Jiang immediately vetoed, "Now the plan is for everyone to work together to prevent the epidemic!"

"This is typhoid fever, who can prevent it?" Wang Wen shook his head repeatedly. Even as a member of the Jinyang Wang family, several of his close relatives died of typhoid fever. If it can really prevent it, why does taking Hanshisan become popular?

"If it is really impossible to prevent, then why did the Buddha fall into his dream? Why did Zhongzheng meet Liang Zixi and call me to consult him? Isn't this exactly what the Buddhists call one drink and one peck?!" Recklessly, moved out the name of the Buddha's dream.

As soon as this remark came out, Wang Wen was stunned. Yes, why did he meet Liang Feng? Had the Buddha already realized that Jinyang had such a problem, and sent him to resolve it? If you flee the city at this moment and ignore the words of the doctor Jiang, wouldn't it be a waste of the Buddha's fate that has been hard to find through the ages?

After gritting his teeth, Wang Wen finally nodded: "In that case, just listen to what Jiang Weng said and see how to prevent and treat this typhoid fever..."

Grand Doctor Jiang breathed a sigh of relief immediately: "Zhongzheng, don't panic. I have sent someone to call Jin. He has been with Liang Zixi for the longest time. He is familiar with the warnings of the Buddha's dreams, and there must be a way. The current plan is to organize manpower to control typhoid fever. At the same time, spread the disease by wild mice and mosquitoes, so that Li Shu can take precautions to prevent the spread of the disease as much as possible."

"Listen to Jiang Weng! I will do my best to help!" Wang Wen immediately said, "Come on! Quickly ignite Ai Xiang, take care of the pen and ink, I will hand over the book personally and speak to Dongying!"

"Zixi, there is a disease in Jinyang city. My grandfather and father have already gone to Jinyang, I must rush to..." Jiang Da was full of ashamed face, and barely dared to look directly into Liang Feng's eyes. He clearly promised to help Liang Zixi recover his body, but now that he has learned to prevent the epidemic, he has to leave his friends behind, which really makes him ashamed.

Unexpectedly, the person who should have been angry replied quickly: "The healer saves people like fire fighting, and Jin should rush to Jinyang as soon as possible! I have recovered from the Danshi activation, and the rest is just taking medicine on time. It's no problem. You are walking. Be careful not to get sick in the epidemic area."

Jiang Da couldn't help but warm his chest: "Thank you Zixi for your concern! If this trip goes smoothly, the epidemic prevention tips you taught will surely save the lives of hundreds of people!"

"I hope so!" These days, he has indeed told Jiang Da the theory of epidemic prevention for countless times, just to see if it can be used in this era. Liang Feng thought for a while, then picked up a letter from the table, "Here are more than a dozen "Diamond Sutras" that I have copied one after another. You take them to Jinyang and give them to Wang Zhongzheng. With these scriptures, he must It will also help you prevent the epidemic. Aliang, go and prepare a fast horse for Dr. Jiang to drive."

At this time, Jiang Da's eyes became hot. Carefully took the envelope and concealed the meat, and then he said deeply: "Zixi Gaoyi! I will live up to my trust!"

After that, he got up and walked out.

Lu Zhu's complexion turned pale: "Lang Jun, why did you send Dr. Jiang away? If typhoid fever is transmitted, wouldn't it be bad if there is no doctor in the house?"

"The epidemic area is in Jinyang, which is far away from us. But if there is no one to help, it will endanger Jinyang's surroundings. Doctor Jiang is doing good deeds and saving ourselves."

Liang Feng could understand that the plague emerged before midsummer. In case it spreads accidentally, the corpses are really everywhere. The Jiang family's ability to go deep into the epidemic area and prevent the spread of the disease is definitely a clear and righteous move. At this time, of course, we must give our full support. Is it possible to pull others back for our own benefit?

Green Bamboo bit his lip: "Then I will burn more wormwood, and I will scent the incense every day, and I ask the Bodhisattva for blessing!"

Liang Feng smiled and did not answer. I hope this epidemic can be brought under control. If there is a successful example, the imperial court will appoint epidemic prevention measures, which will be a great boon for the common people.

The horse sent by Liang's Mansion was really a good horse. It took only four days to reach Jinyang City without stopping day and night. In the past, the bustling streets became deserted and deserted, and the pedestrians on the roads were also covered with thick cloth towels, as if they were walking in a hurry. Without making more stops on the street, Jiang Da directly rode his horse to the Chengxi Pavilion where his grandfather was temporarily staying.

This is the medical room that Wang Wen specially provided for the Jiang family. As soon as he walked in, the strong wormwood breath rushed into his nose. Jiang Da wrinkled his nose and didn't care. He walked quickly to the main courtyard. Along the way, he saw several men wearing linen robes and brown cloth towels, walking out with wooden barrels in their hands. The lime water was unique. The smell came from the barrel. It seems that these are handymen who are going to splash lime water. Jiang Da couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Grandfather really read his letter and put disinfection first.

After bypassing several corridors, a wide courtyard appeared in front of him. Large piles of medicinal materials were placed in the corner, and several medical workers were busy sorting out the medicinal materials. The pungent medicinal soup overwhelmed the smell of wormwood and lime water, but Jiang Da didn't care about it. He had already seen the old man standing in the middle of the courtyard busy instructing the handymen.

With just one glance, Jiang Da's eyes flashed with tears. I haven't seen him for half a month, my grandfather's straight back has ricketed up, his face is no longer ruddy and luster, but sallow and wrinkled, he looks overworked. He couldn't help but stepped forward quickly, held the old man's arm, and choked, "Grandfather, the child is too late."

"It's not too late, it's not too late!" The doctor Jiang couldn't help being overjoyed. "Here we are organizing people to splash lime water. Everyone is wearing sackcloth and masks. So far, no one has contracted typhoid fever! Liang Zixi's method is useful. !"

Jiang Da immediately wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and said with a serious face: "I think it is not enough to just splash the lime water. I must isolate the patients to stop the spread of the epidemic as soon as possible."

"What is isolation?" Doctor Jiang couldn't help asking.

"Send people to guard the affected neighborhoods, and all houses are closed to reduce going out. Another medical room is set up, where the sick are placed and treated by doctors. If they can be cured, they can be returned to their original homes. If not, they must be returned to their homes as soon as possible. Dispose of the dead body."

"Does this violate filial piety?" Doctor Jiang frowned.

"Filial piety also divides life into filial piety and death to filial piety. If there is really no precaution, the disease of one person will become the disease of one family, the disease of one place, and the disease of one city, and it will be difficult to deal with by then!"

So doctor Jiang is also good at typhoid fever. Naturally, he knew the terrible infection of the epidemic. After thinking about it for a moment, he finally made up his mind: "I will go to see Wang Zhongzheng and see if he can get out of the place and take in patients. Darer, you also go with me..."

Jiang Da nodded immediately, and took out a letter from his arms: "This is a scripture given to me by Liang Zixi, saying that as long as it is presented to Wang Zhongzheng, Wang Zhongzheng will help us prevent the epidemic."

"Is it the scripture again?" Doctor Jiang couldn't help but feel a little moved. Before, he used the Buddha's dream to arouse Wang Wen. Unexpectedly, Liang Feng also cooperated with this statement. If you don't have the heart to help the world, why bother with these twists and turns?

"That's great! Acheng, go and lead the horse!"

"What? Put the sick people together and separate them from their families?" Wang Wen immediately shook his head when he heard the advice of Dr. Jiang. "Isn't it right? Isn't it necessary to separate the flesh and blood? Under serious illness , How can no one take care of it?"

At this time, the DPRK also had a similar rule. If a court official has three relatives infected with a disease, even if he is not infected, he cannot enter the palace for a hundred days. However, this method has always been criticized. What's more, it is simply unconventional to let a person who is seriously ill leave his family!

Doctor Jiang replied: "It's not that there is no one to wait, but a special person is assigned to take care of them together. These people are familiar with the important tasks of epidemic prevention, and the chance of getting sick is greatly reduced, and the further spread of the epidemic can be controlled."

"But after all, there is no relative by his side, which violates filial piety. Dongying will definitely not agree to this!" Wang Wen previously wrote to Sima Teng specifically to inform him of the epidemic prevention.

Dongying company Ma Teng had close contacts with the Wang family, and the state was under his rule, but he did not veto the epidemic prevention. In addition, there are many high schools in Jinyang, and they heard that there is a way to prevent the spread of typhoid fever. Many people come to look for Wang Wen and ask for advice. In order to repay the favor, these experts will more or less support some people who use medicinal materials for epidemic prevention. Therefore, Jiang Taiyi's annex can be quickly established.

But epidemic prevention is epidemic prevention, and isolation is not a trivial matter. Filial piety is the most important human relationship in the country. If it is because of separation of flesh and blood to prevent relatives from serving illnesses, it is afraid that people will be accused, ruined, and stigmatized. This is not acceptable to Wang Wen.

Looking at each other with his grandfather, Jiang Da took out Liang Feng’s letter from his arms and handed it respectfully: “Wang Zhongzheng, this is the scripture of Liang Zixi’s new book. I left Liang’s mansion and he also exhorted him to let him I must send the scriptures to the right. This method of isolation was also pointed out by Zixi first. He once said that saving people is like fighting fire. If you don’t tear down a house and separate the fire, don’t you burn a house to white ground ?? Still looking forward to thinking deeply!"

Wang Wen couldn't help but startled. Of course, he also knew that in order to fight the fire, the houses near the fire must be demolished to prevent the fire from spreading and burn more houses. But I never imagined that this would be the case for epidemic prevention! Looking at the elegantly stretched handwriting on the paper, he couldn't help but hesitate. If it is true as Liang Zixi said, would he say something or keep it silent?

Seeing Wang Wen's intention to waver, Jiang Da hurriedly added: "Actually, you can also recruit relatives of the sick. If there are filial and virtuous children and grandchildren who are willing to serve the sick, they can be recruited into the quarantine area to take care of their relatives. , And also help other patients. Wouldn’t it be perfect for filial piety and also to accumulate virtue and do good?

"This is a good way." Wang Wen's brows eased slowly. "It's just a patient in isolation. Where should they be placed?"

"Get out of a house, or find a big house?" Jiang Taiyi said, "As long as the house is disinfected frequently, no disease will be left in the house, but it must be spacious."

Wang Wen hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said, "Maybe I can borrow the monk's room at Huai'en Temple in the west of the city."

Huai'en Temple is a large temple in Jinyang. There are many people in the prefecture, Buddhism is prosperous, and the scale of the temple is not small. Wang Wen himself also often donated in the temple. If the monk's room can be used as a medical treatment room, then there should be a lot more people willing to go to the doctor.

Jiang Da's eyes lit up: "That's even better! The epidemic is the Buddha's guidance. If you can borrow the monk's house, wouldn't it be in line with heaven? And the monks die, it seems that cremation is performed. If someone died of illness, so too. The corpses and relics can be cremated by the Buddha's name, so that the disease can be controlled more easily!"

"It's so good." After discovering that everything implied Buddhism, Wang Wen finally stopped rejecting it and decided on the case. "You two should also draw up a charter as soon as possible for Duke Dongying's reference. If it really can stop the Great The epidemic is not in vain to be enlightened by the Buddha."

Jiang family ancestors and grandchildren looked at each other, and he was relieved. They don't believe in the Buddha very much, but if they can save the living under the name of Buddha, they don't mind using it. I only hope that this time, I can save more lives...

The spacious monk's room is surrounded by sandalwood. An old monk with kind eyebrows lowered his eyes and looked at the scroll of scripture in front of him. Although the items are not complete, the scriptures are indeed literally literally zhuji. In his early years, he had heard a similar scripture from a Western Region monk, but in Sanskrit instead of Chinese.

It is incredible that a weak young man who has never left Middle-earth can silently produce such scriptures. After a moment of silence, he asked: "That Liang donor ever dreamed of a Posuo Graceland that was half gold and half mud?"

Wang Wen was slightly surprised: "Does this garden really exist?"

"That should be the Gion Abode. It originally belonged to the prince Goda of the kingdom of Savim, and then he gave the lonely elder to welcome the Buddha and asked him to buy it. The prince Goda proposed to cover the ground with gold, and it was scattered for the lonely elder. The family wealth, the gold to shop the land, finally enlightened Prince Goda. The two built this garden together and dedicated it to the Buddha. So it is called the Gion Tree for Solitude Garden."

The old monk used his fingertips to flick the first scroll of the scriptures, the line of beautiful handwriting. Such a story does not exist in the scriptures, but someone can describe it exactly. Even he didn't dare to deny that the Buddha had fallen into a dream.

After a while, he said again: "I don't know if the so-called epidemic of the donor Liang can really be prevented?"

"According to the doctor Jiang, none of the handymen who went to the epidemic area to splash lime water contracted typhoid fever. I also reported the matter to Dongying Gong. He greatly supported him and promised to distribute money. If the disease can be controlled, there will be serious problems. Reward! It's just a medical room for isolation, it is really hard to find..." Wang Wen gritted his teeth, "If the host is willing to lend the monk's room, I would like to offer 300,000 yuan to rebuild the golden body for the Buddha!"

Unexpectedly, the old monk shook his head: "Since this matter is enlightened by the Buddha, the poor monk should be a convenient way to go."

Hearing this, Wang Wen couldn't help being overjoyed, and clasped his hands together: "Thank you for hosting the mercy! Tomorrow, the doctor Jiang will bring people to the monastery to clean the monk's room and clean the house. This kind thought will surely save thousands of lives!"

The old monk nodded slightly: "This is the merit of the poor monk, and it is also the source of the temple's law. Thank you for the mercy of the king and donor."

Thanks for compassion with compassion, and the short answer is also deeply embedded in Buddhism. There is no reason for Wang Wen to be unbelief at this moment? After praying again full of joy, he reluctantly said goodbye and left Huai'en Temple.

After the guests left, the monk who had been sitting behind the old monk frowned and said, "Master, treat the monk's room as a medical laboratory. What if the monks in the monastery contract the disease?"

"If you are afraid of death, why do you need to practice?" The old monk said lightly, "Since this matter is turned into a guide by the Buddha, it is better to follow the river. If the disease can be prevented and the number of people who believe in the Buddha will be multiplied. This is the real thing. Fate!"

The disciple suddenly realized. Although Buddhism is prosperous in Binzhou, the majority of people who believe in Buddhism are still Hu people. Lao Zhuang is admired among the masters, and there are many believers in Tianshi Tao. If it is possible to broadcast the Dharma on the grounds of curing the epidemic, the number of people who believe in the Buddha will increase sharply, and maybe even Duke Dongying has begun to worship the Buddha. How can such a great opportunity be missed? !

There was some excitement on his face. He folded his hands together and said, "The disciples will cooperate with all their hearts and declare my Buddha name."

"Well, you go." The old monk's eyes lowered again, falling on the scripture in front of him.

The author has something to say: The Eastern Han Dynasty has recorded about the epidemic prevention and isolation, but it is a mandatory Guanfang. In the Jin Dynasty, there were also rules that prevented the families of patients from going to court, and there were special hospitals in the Northern Wei Dynasty. For leprosy, all generations have "Yirenfang". In ancient times, epidemics were also attached great importance, but the isolation was not very thorough.

As for cremation, Buddhists must be cremated. Only cremation has so-called relics. After the introduction of Buddhism in the Han Dynasty, civilians gradually adopted the custom of cremation. After Song and Yuan dynasties, cremation began more often. However, after the prevalence of science and education, the official ban was imposed. Therefore, cremation with Buddha's name in the Jin Dynasty should still be feasible.

Dongying, also known as Sima Teng, is currently the governor of Bingzhou and general of Ningbei. At this time, there will be many official titles of dignitaries. Everyone is confused.
