Chapter 78 Bathing
“Brother, why is this happening?”
Wang Xun is a good boy, and he will do whatever Feng Yong tells him to do. However, a person like Zhao Guang, the reincarnation of a husky, can't stop talking even if Feng Yongsheng pulls him into a bucket.
Feng Yong soaked his whole body in hot water and rubbed the palm of his hand that had been wrapped with letter paper. He answered without raising his head when he heard the words: "Disinfection."
"Poison?" Zhao Guang stood up in shock and found that he was exposed, and quickly squatted down again, "Those old thieves, were they poisoned just now?"
“It’s not poisonous, but they may be poisonous.”
“How does brother know?”
“Tsk! Places with piles of dead people are often places where plagues are rampant. Why?”
“Isn’t it because the evil spirit is demanding his life and his resentment persists?” Zhao Guang said hesitantly.
"Shit! Have you seen a ghost? Or do you know anyone who has seen a ghost?" Feng Yong cursed, "That's because of virus and microbial contamination...Forget it, you don't understand even after I tell you."
"Then if those veterans have the disease, why did my brother let them enter the village? Don't you think the disease is everywhere, and the bones are white for thousands of miles..."
As soon as Wang Xun finished speaking, Zhao Guang's face turned pale. In ancient times, the word plague meant the extinction of human beings at least within a thousand miles.
"What are you afraid of? I just said it was possible, and I didn't say it was true. It's always good to take precautions before they happen." Feng Yong glanced at the two of them with disdain, "Otherwise, why would I let you do this? Willow water? Even if it was stained just now, it will be almost clean now."
"Brother, can you still cure the epidemic?" Zhao Guang suddenly had an idea.
"No." Feng Yong cut off his hope, "This thing can only be prevented, not cured."
What a joke. There was not just one kind of plague in ancient times. Typhoid, plague, smallpox, etc. were all called epidemics. He didn’t study medicine in college, so how could he know these things? Even if you study medicine, I am afraid that given the medical conditions at this time, there is no good solution.
“Being on guard is a great skill!” Zhao Guang’s eyes suddenly lit up. He desperately insisted on coming over to share a bucket with Feng Yong, and asked eagerly, “Is there anything special about this?”
“Get the **** out of here!” Feng Yong wanted to push Zhao Guang out in disgust, “You don’t even understand what I said! Go back to your bucket!”
As expected, Husky was only handsome for three seconds. Zhao Guang's move completely wiped out the good impression Feng Yong had just had on him for protecting him behind him.
“Brother, it’s okay to talk. If you don’t understand, I won’t tell you first. I’ll tell you something new.” Zhao Guang said with a salivating face and a flattering smile. Even Wang Xun, who was soaking in another vat, looked over hopefully.
Feng Yong sank his head into the water. After a while, he came out of the water again, exhaled a breath, and then said: "What's there to say? I wander around Zhuangzi every day, and I don't feel that Fengzhuang is different from other places." Is it different?"
“Brother Zhuang Shang, everything is different from others...” Zhao Guang said matter-of-factly.
"The so-called plagues are caused by invisible pestilence. Plagues are generally only found on unclean things, especially on rotten corpses. Therefore, do not touch dead bodies easily. If you touch After that, you must immediately clean your whole body like we are doing now. Like flies, mosquitoes, rats, etc., they like unclean things the most, so they need to be caught and killed as much as possible on weekdays. On weekdays, you can only drink boiled water. You must wash your hands before eating, do not defecate anywhere, collect human and animal defecation, and bathe frequently." Feng Yong was unable to explain the principles of infectious diseases to them, so he had to try his best to pick up some easy-to-understand things and explain them to them.
“In the epidemic area, can we prevent and cure the epidemic by doing this?”
Feng Yong knew he would ask this, glared at Zhao Guang, and said: "Of course not. After talking for a long time, don't you understand? This plague is best prevented, not cured. If it is to be cured, it does not mean that it cannot be cured at all. , but it is very difficult. So the best way is to cut off the source of the plague immediately before it starts, or when it is first discovered. The place where the plague starts is usually a place with piles of dead people, so the dead must be dug into deep pits to bury them. The best way is to burn it with fire and turn it into ashes. What’s left is just like this villager. If you pay more attention to it every day, you can prevent the epidemic to the greatest extent possible. "
After hearing this, Zhao Guang raised his head and looked straight into the sky. He didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he suddenly said: "But brother's secret technique of raising chickens is based on the maggots... "
"That's different. Others don't know, don't you know? The first two batches of fly maggots cannot be used. Only after they are no longer exposed to dirt can they be considered usable. The fly maggots themselves are not dirt, they are just Because he likes to eat unclean things, he will be infected with the disease."
“But there is also the Earth Dragon…”
Your sister! I said where did you get so many problems? I can't explain to you the anatomical principle of earthworms being able to transform fertilizers.
Feng Yong thought for a while and then said: "Earth dragon is a medicinal material. How can we explain all the things that are mutually reinforcing and interfering with each other in the world?"
“In that case, Earth Dragon is also effective against epidemic diseases?” Zhao Guang’s eyes lit up.
Fuck you, you are so imaginative...
Feng Yong simply sank into the water again and stopped answering.
“Brother Lu, why are the rules of the Feng family so weird?”
In front of the **** cave behind Fengzhuang Village, a large shed was built with bamboo. Inside, white mist curled up and water vapor transpired. You could only vaguely see large buckets inside, with heads shaking in the buckets. Someone was obviously taking a bath. The sound just now came from one of the buckets.
"Didn't I already have instructions when I came here? The owner of this house is not an ordinary person. He has more rules than elsewhere. It's a new arrival for everyone, so it's better to follow other people's rules."
If Feng Yong was here, he should know that this was the voice of the veteran with the scar on his face.
"We need to take a bath and wash the clothes we change, which is reasonable, but all the items we bring with us must be soaked in the willow water. Isn't this too much? We don't even have a change of clothes. Now, I’m naked, is that appropriate?”
The scar-faced veteran sneered: "Before you went to the battlefield, Li Datou, you were never naked? You sacrificed your life to get this little thing, and you forgot where you came from? "
It's okay to say that those around Chengdu can be considered wealthy, but in a barbaric place like Nanzhong, the people have no clothes to cover their bodies. It is normal for people to wear coir raincoats and work directly on the ground with bare buttocks. What Scar Veteran told was the story of Li Datou who had no clothes before he ate military rations.
Li Datou smiled and said, "That's what I said."
"This is Chengdu, and it's not a place for you to run wild. Let me say it first. If this master's family doesn't want to take us in, that's fine. But if he really wants to take us in, who dares to touch his little mind and break up our brothers? It's a good day, but don't blame me for being a ruthless brother."
“I would not have agreed without my brother’s intervention. Grandma, I managed to escape from the King of Hell with half my life, but I dare not let go when such a good thing happens!”
Everyone just laughed and agreed to the scar-faced veteran's words in a noisy manner.
