Episode 994:
The bet with Sichuan Danga has begun.
However, as time passed, something surprising began to happen.
“Why on earth is this…?”
The number of people treated with the medicine of Baekrin is five times greater than the number of people treated with the medicine of the Four Thousand Danga.
Additionally, there was a significant difference in the speed at which symptoms improved.
It was even more so when I wrote it down myself on an ink board.
And as time goes by, doesn’t the difference become even wider?
Jin Cheon-hee went to the tent of Sacheon Dang Family and said this.
“How about using white phosphorus medicine from now on?”
“….”
He looked at Jin Cheon-hee, who was dumbfounded, and said this.
“I thought you were going to laugh at me, but instead you looked apologetic.”
‘…Who do you think is a person with broken character?’
No, if you think about it, it seems like strong people usually take that kind of action in situations like this.
The act of not looking back.
The spirit of living only for today!
However, modern people, especially members of society, become more careful the more they win.
‘Anyway, at least once we had to clearly determine which drug was superior. Otherwise, there is no way the Four Heavenly Dang Family would understand it. Additionally, I am catching a patient who is on the verge of becoming seriously ill and treating him with poison.’
I look into Jin Cheon-hee’s dumbfounded eyes.
‘There is no arrogance or criticism of the other person in those eyes. Indeed, a white-robed divine dragon.’
I just look at it with sad eyes.
“It seems like the White Cloaked Dragon definitely anticipated this situation, but how did you know?”
“….”
‘How should I explain my tolerance?’
Jin Cheon-hee thought for a moment and decided to explain it as easily as possible in Tang style.
“What do you do first to learn poison?”
“Well… let’s start by taking a small amount of poison. By doing so, you will slowly become accustomed to the poison and develop a tolerance… Oh, really?”
As expected, he was quick to think as the deputy head of Yakdokdang.
“yes. For an illness, medicine is like poison. “Like humans, they develop tolerance.”
“But isn’t that infectious disease a type of insect poison? How on earth…?”
“Even invisible parasites use their wisdom to survive. “The desire to live and reproduce is the instinct of all living things, and parasites are no different.”
And the same goes for humans.
Even at this very moment, aren’t humans squeezing out wisdom like this in order to survive?
“Huh…”
Tang Mukhwa sighed in astonishment.
“If we don’t completely eradicate mosquitoes, this will continue to happen. “I have already developed a tolerance to the medicine of the Four Thousand Danga family.”
“Are you saying that Baeklin’s medicine is different from ours and is working well now?”
“That’s right. And resistance to this drug may develop someday.”
There is no ‘absolute’ in everything.
This was especially true when it came to life.
Seonin Galhong.
The founder of the Nabu faction and the one who left behind a legendary book called Captor.
In this section of the inner scriptures of Po Bakja and his other book Juhubigeupang (肘後備急方), a vision regarding a cure for malaria is written.
In fact, Chinese medical scientist Tu Youyou took hints from the book and developed a treatment.
And Jin Cheon-hee knew well what the important components of the cure were.
A substance called artemisinin or blue phosphorus!
This substance, which can be extracted directly from mugwort, is known to have the ability to eliminate parasites such as malaria more quickly and reliably than other drugs.
however.
‘In modern society, malaria resistant to this artemisinin has already been discovered.’
Therefore, it is recommended not to use artemisinin alone, and it is to be used in combination with other antimalarial treatments.
This is a method to further reduce the probability of developing resistance.
however.
This martial planet probably didn’t know about that yet.
so.
Either he continued to use the ancestor Galhong’s secret recipe, or he improved it to make it Sacheondangga’s secret medicine and has been using it ever since without making any further improvements.
Still, it would have been enough.
The result is this.
That malaria has become resistant to 4,000 drugs!
It is quite resistant to artemisinin!
On the contrary.
The medicine of Baeklin Eui-gak is mainly made of a substance called quinine.
After receiving information about malaria and realizing that the mainly used medicine was artemisinin-based.
We prepared a medicine that mainly contains quinine.
Quinine is a type of drug that has a different effect from artemisinin.
‘Somehow it ended up going against Earth’s history.’
Still, we also prepared artemisinin for pregnant women.
We don’t know how much resistance has developed, but in any case, it’s better than prescribing quinine.
In the worst case scenario, I will at least borrow Kiiiiii’s power.
‘That’s why I went all the way to the police station. okay.’
Strangely enough, as Jin Cheon-hee came here and battled the scourge of malaria, his thoughts began to change again.
‘Why do I fight?’
‘What are you fighting against?’
‘How did we come to this state?’
Questions gradually began to naturally sink into my heart.
“This… is going to be a never-ending fight. Gin incineration liquor. “Unless we get rid of all the mosquitoes like you said…”
There was a time when the entire world worked together to push the enemy to the point of ‘Have we defeated it?’ But as soon as the sand cleared, didn’t they immediately launch another attack?
Perhaps, in the distant future, Earth will be able to do this.
Because new drugs are still being developed at this very moment.
But the Earth is also struggling. Needless to say, Jungwon Planet.
“yes. Currently this is not possible. But it is possible to control it. “At least it can be better than it is now.”
“Is there any way?”
“….”
Jin Cheonhee narrows her eyes.
‘What on earth is the young man in front of me thinking?’
White-clothed dragon.
A person who has learned numerous poison techniques and has reached the state of righteousness.
A light of respect shines in Dan Mu-ha’s eyes. People call him a madman, but he doesn’t seem like that at all.
Usually, when you talk about Shinyi in a powerhouse, there is bound to be something of an eccentric side to him.
However, the young man in front of me is rather humble and speaks with as much consideration for the other person as possible in an easy-to-understand manner.
‘The rumor that I’m crazy is definitely a lie!’
Eventually, Jin Cheon-hee, lost in thought, speaks.
Firearms shone like stars in his blue eyes.
‘It’s not saying anything, but it must contain mysterious wisdom.’
I silently thought that the people who said White-robed Shinryong were crazy were the true enemies of Gangho.
And contrary to his expectations, Jin Cheonhee had a crazy idea.
‘I want to achieve the legend of civil engineering by somehow underpinning the Sacheondang family.’
But if you say that here, you’ll be stoned.
Finally, Jin Cheon-hee spoke.
“First, we treat the patients in front of us. If we join forces, we will be able to save more people. If it’s okay, it would be great if the Sichuan Tangmun branch also helps us manufacture our medicine.”
The basis of Sacheondanga is poison.
Extracting and purifying this poison is better than any other Sega.
Even those branches have facilities that are better than the pharmacy.
“All right. “Let’s immediately contact the scattered branches and help them.”
Make medicine instead of poison.
Even so, there is no significant difference in the process.
‘And quinine is extremely poisonous if used incorrectly…’
On the other hand, if used well, it can also be used as a treatment for ailments.
“What is the name of this medicine?”
Jin Cheon-hee spoke in Chinese pronunciation.
“It’s called a golden chickadee.”
“?!”
This is the Chinese character for quinine.
The name was given when Jesuit powder was brought to Asia in the past.
In Chinese, it is pronounced differently, but in Korea, it is pronounced as Geumgye Lap in Chinese characters.
From the Kina tree to Korea, this powder has come all the way around the world.
By taking that medicine, humans survived and reached the modern era, accumulating ten thousand evils and a hundred good things.
Golden chickadee.
Just hearing it sounds like a medicine made from golden chickens.
‘Just looking at the name, it looks like some kind of fried chicken.’
But with such a ridiculous name.
A local congressman came all the way to this far away place and was preaching the same thing again.
‘Ah, I see. ‘Everything had its own debt.’
Humans cannot live alone.
Even this blood flowing through one’s veins could be said to be a journey of one’s ancestors receiving help and helping them again in the distant past.
Learning, plundering, massacring, stealing, and yet helping.
This funny name, Golden Chick Lap, contains the records of mankind.
And now it was the Golden Chicken’s turn to save countless people again.
Now, the people here will also accumulate ten thousand evils and a hundred good things.
But it’s okay.
‘Because those hundred goodness are heavier than ten thousand evil.’
He had people who were in trouble fly the letters in all directions.
Now, this golden chickadee will begin manufacturing in numerous buntas in Sichuan Province under orders from the original family.
The place that used to make poison has now started making medicine again.
The world, especially human medicine, can never develop alone.
‘Now I’ve done everything I can right away.’
All that remains is to treat patients with the drugs we have until new drugs arrive.
After extinguishing the immediate fire, the next task would remain.
* * *
Almost all patients have been treated.
The surrounding swamp area has also been completely cleared.
Even if more patients come, the clinics in Uibin will be able to handle the problem to some extent.
Quinine requested from other regions has not yet arrived.
Some members of the Research Party were left behind to receive supplies directly and then disperse to nearby Baekrin Uigak Bunta to rescue people in various places.
but.
‘It is impossible for this infectious disease to disappear overnight.’
I am also worried about abnormal weather conditions.
Suddenly, the rain keeps falling, swamps are formed in various places, and mosquitoes are rampant.
Jin Cheon-hee decided to rest for a day and then move to Sacheon Danga.
Everyone is exhausted, so it’s only natural.
The tents on the outskirts of Uibin were removed and the supplies were loaded onto the wagons.
And those who were able to rest decided to stay in the most luxurious guesthouse in Uibin, thanks to Dangmukha, head of Yakdokdang.
Although I was already like a distinguished guest, I could clearly feel that I was being treated more honorably than before when Dan Moo-ha came forward.
It was not simply a form of rule by force.
‘This is a network.’
The belief that Sacheondanga will do something even if there is a drought or a plague spreads like this.
In fact, didn’t the medicine used by the Sachundang family fight off academic diseases?
It must have been a force to protect the civilians until resistance developed.
Uibin’s large guesthouse where he stayed.
From the top floor of the four-story pavilion, Jin Cheon-hee looked down on the entire Uibin.
Uibin at night was quiet and full of darkness, unlike big cities like Hangzhou.
The sound of rain filled the darkness.
I don’t know how much rainwater I saw while coming here.
The place I went to before was struggling with a drought, but here, on the other hand, it was raining continuously.
It suddenly rains like this, then suddenly clears up, and then gets crazy hot again.
In the dark with rain.
I could see lights burning here and there, and there was a faint smoke coming out of them.
This smoke has an insecticidal effect.
Although this is essential in this region, it is also not enough.
It’s not like you can live in smoke your whole life, and these days, these damn mosquitoes are starting to bite through the smoke.
It appears that resistance to pesticides has begun to develop.
‘If this continues, it will become an endemic disease.’
That has to be stopped.
What should I do?
Concern passes through Jin Cheon-hee’s eyes.
“….”
* * *
The morning after being hit like that.
Now it was time to go to Sacheondangga.
The Baeklindae formed an escort formation and the carriages that got off the ship began moving.
Of course, the wagon is loaded with supplies.
Jin Tianxi is riding in the front carriage with Sima Hui. Namgoong Un is riding a horse and following from the side.
In the midst of trying to escape through Uibin’s main street.
I saw people coming out to the street one by one.
But the number is increasing.
like.
As if everyone living in Uibin came out.
They didn’t block the road. However, standing next to the road, I look at Baekrin Uigak and his group.
“Uh… Eunkong. “What about these people…”
“Well?”
Jin Cheon-hee just smiled at Sima-hye, who was surprised.
And then people started bowing their heads one by one.
“thank you!”
“Thank you, Head of Sima Hui, Hangzhou One Hui!”
“Byeok-An Shin-ui! Thank you for healing my mother!”
People one by one.
Shout out.
This is something Jin Cheon-hee has experienced several times.
Patients and their families tend to express their gratitude to doctors when they come back from the dead.
But for Sama Hye, this was her first experience.
Hangzhou Ilhye (杭州一暳).
A nickname that people give to Sama Hye, who cures ailments.
Literally one star in Hangzhou.
The ‘one’ in front of this does not mean that there is only one. It meant the best.
The brightest star in Hangzhou!
Sima Hui’s eyes became red.
“Ah…”
“Keep this memory well. So that you can bring it out whenever you are having a hard time.”
“yes…!”
Because this memory is a treasure that cannot be bought with money.
Sima Hui quickly wiped her eyes.
So that I can engrave even just a little bit of this scenery into my pupils.
Since I have chosen to work as a lawmaker in Gangho, many storms will come in the future.
Still, I needed these memories to keep my boat from capsizing.
A storm that will end someday.
A memory of a ray of sunlight at the end.
I keep repeating to myself that all of this will end someday.
Doesn’t a congressman live on one small memory?
Namgoongwoon watched the two people happily.
At that time, people started chanting Namgungun and Changcheonnamgungga together.
“Chief of the Changryong Sword Namgung!”
“Thanks to you, mosquitoes are disappearing little by little!”
“The buried part was so hard that it seemed like it would make a great road just by laying stone slabs on top.”
Oh, do people recognize the hard work of civil engineering!
