My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 481 - 329: Scamming for Wool Again_2
This is one of the most terrifying plagues, and so far, there is no effective treatment. Not only does it spread quickly, but the mortality rate is extremely high, and even the way the victims die is incredibly tragic.
Once infected with smallpox, even low-realm medical practitioners might not survive, let alone ordinary people.
If smallpox could be prevented, history would not have seen so many people die from it across various countries.
Although high-realm medical practitioners are not afraid of smallpox, they can't save too many people either.
Treating a smallpox patient can end up completely exhausting a fourth-realm medical practitioner, and it takes a long time for them to recover.
Therefore, whenever there is an outbreak of smallpox, they can only choose to treat the officials and nobles, watching helplessly as ordinary people die in large numbers.
Just being able to prevent smallpox, rather than finding a cure, would be an incredible achievement.
Such a meritorious deed, if it could be slightly associated with oneself...
Just thinking about it made him tremble with excitement.
If anyone else had said they had a way to eradicate smallpox, he wouldn't believe them.
But if Doctor Li said it, he wouldn't doubt a word.
Li Nuo nodded and said, "It's about preventing smallpox. If this can be achieved with time, smallpox might be completely eradicated, and no one in the countries of the continent would die from smallpox ever again..."
While compiling the medical manual, Li Nuo noticed the disease of smallpox.
Before he came to this world, smallpox had already been completely eradicated in the other world, and he had learned about the process from history books. It was even a classic scenario in various historical fiction novels.
When he was in school, he had read many novels, which deepened his understanding of this area.
However, he wasn't sure of the specific procedures, and the novels might not stand up to scrutiny.
He believed that the medical practitioners here would have their own methods.
He gave Doctor Sun some hints, and Doctor Sun's old face turned red with excitement as he rushed outside.
As Li Nuo was about to continue compiling the manual, he noticed Zhao Zhiyi staring at him in a daze.
He looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Zhiyi came back to her senses and said, "I thought Lord Li was only proficient in the Six Arts, but I didn't realize Lord Li knew and could do everything..."
He was proficient in the Six Arts, could catch thieves, judge cases, modify Martial Path Techniques, and treat plagues. It seemed there was nothing he didn't understand.
He alone could match all the strategists in his other elder brothers' households.
No wonder Master Gongsun said that as long as he was invited, the imperial throne would surely be secure.
Li Nuo humbly said, "I don't know everything, it's just that I've read slightly more books and I'm standing on the shoulders of those who came before us..."
To be precise, he was standing on the shoulders of those who came after.
This knowledge had always been stored in his mind. He wouldn't think of it in everyday life, but it naturally came to him when needed.
In the courtyard.
Yiren focused on practicing her sword skills. Li Nuo was diligently compiling the manual, and Zhao Zhiyi sat opposite him, her gaze fixed on him, though her thoughts wandered to someplace unknown...
Meanwhile, in Huichun Hall, Doctor Sun was flipping through medical books, his hands trembling with excitement.
Smallpox, it was smallpox, one of the most severe plagues.
If smallpox could be completely eradicated across the continent, what would the Fifth Realm matter? Even the Sixth Realm would be within hope...
At that time, it would be his master's turn to call him master in return.
People who had already had smallpox and survived by luck would not get smallpox again in their lifetimes.
This was common knowledge among medical practitioners, although no one had yet figured out the exact reason behind it.
Doctor Li said it was because those who had contracted smallpox had something in their bodies that resisted smallpox.
If this substance could be made to occur in the bodies of those who had not had smallpox, they wouldn't get infected.
He knew very well that Doctor Li could have done this entirely on his own.
That way, he could claim all the credit for himself.
But instead, he gave this opportunity to him.
All his hard work these days had not been in vain after all...
He didn't plan to undertake this major task alone.
He believed that as long as he stayed with Doctor Li, there would be more such opportunities in the future. He had to include his old fellows who had helped him out this time, to share the credit and increase their cultivation together.
A moment later, he arrived at the Golden Pill Hall.
On the third floor of the Golden Pill Hall, Doctor Jiang looked at him and said, "I really have no money left to donate; you can't force me to sell the Medical Hall, can you?"
Doctor Sun cast him a glance and said, "What kind of person do you take me for? I'm not here to ask you to donate silver this time, but to involve you in a good deed..."
Doctor Jiang looked at him skeptically. The two had known each other for decades. Even if there was something good, he knew it would come at a great cost, though he didn't know what the cost would be this time.
Doctor Sun said, "Doctor Li has discovered a way to prevent smallpox and has entrusted this matter to me. I specifically came to involve you in this; don't say I don't think of you when there's something good..."
Doctor Jiang was taken aback and blurted out, "Smallpox? Are you kidding me?"
If smallpox could be prevented, why would so many people have died from it in the past?
Doctor Sun was too lazy to explain and said, "Believe it or not, it's up to you. I don't have time to argue; I need to go to Qianjin Hall to find Old Zhang..."
His nonchalant attitude made Doctor Jiang uneasy, and seeing him walk downstairs, he quickly chased after him, saying, "Wait for me..."
