Soon after Zhu Su returned to the camp, all the things he wanted were piled up outside the camp.
Summoning 200 claw shadow soldiers, Zhu Su ordered them to move all the supplies back to the camp.
In Zhu Su's opinion, Chang Yuchun's illness was still manageable, but it would be followed by malaria and wound infection.
The combination of these three factors was the final reason for taking this fierce general's life.
Therefore, Zhu Su decided to refine a simplified version of penicillin to treat Chang Yuchun's malaria.
Then, he used a retorting device to extract garlicin, which was used to treat Chang Yuchun's wound infection.
At the same time, Zhu Su decided to use garlicin to deal with the plague in the army.
Even though the military doctor said that Chang Yuchun might have been infected with malaria because he drank the water contaminated by the dead cows and sheep, he was still a little worried.
However, Zhu Su knew that malaria was mainly transmitted by mosquito bites, and the disease transmitted by sick cows and sheep through water sources was probably more fatal.
Back then, the Marquis Champion of the Sealed Wolf Juxu had unfortunately fallen for this trick and died young.
Therefore, Zhu Su planned to extract allicin to deal with this situation.
Regardless of whether it was Chang Yuchun's inflamed wound or the plague that might spread in the army, garlicin was undoubtedly the best choice.
As for Penicilin?
Zhu Su could think of a way to do it, but it would be a time-consuming and laborious process to cultivate penicilia alone. Moreover, he did not have the conditions to mass produce it.
He ordered the soldier who delivered the supplies to tell the fat chef who cooked for him that he would eat with Xu Da in the future and that he did not have to come to his side in the future. At the same time, if there was anything else, he had to inform them outside the camp. No matter who it was, they were not allowed to approach him casually.
After Zhu Su conveyed his message, he waved his hand. Twenty Ghost Shadow Soldiers walked out of his camp and scattered around, taking up the task of guarding.
After all the preparations were done, Zhu Su found the dried herbs sent by the magistrate of Xuanhua. He carefully picked out the ones with flower buds.
This was because the wormwood of this period contained the most artesunin.
Zhu Su was in a dilemma as to which method could be used to extract penicillin.
Artesunine was not resistant to high temperatures. With Zhu Su's current conditions, using white wine to extract it at a low temperature was the best method.
However, considering Chang Yuchun's arrow injury, Zhu Su silently rejected this plan. He was afraid that if he did not do it well, he would have to eat in advance.
After thinking for a while, Zhu Su finally decided to crush the yellow wormwood into powder and take it directly with warm water.
As for the remaining portion, he boiled the water to cool it down, then soaked the medicinal powder in the water and let it sit for a while before letting Chang Yuchun consume it.
Zhu Su was not one to procrastinate. He ordered the Ghost Shadow Soldiers to start making the powder. Zhu Su then ordered the Ghost Shadow Soldiers to bring firewood, build a copper pot, connect the condensing pipe, and prepare a simple retorting device for the production of garlic.
Not long after Zhu Su finished his work, a soldier brought two barrels of processed garlic to the camp.
After instructing the doctor to take the powder he had just made to the doctor who was taking care of Chang Yuchun and reminding him to take it with warm water, Zhu Su returned to the camp and began to extract garlicin himself for the first time.
He first set up two large pots and filled them with crushed coarse salt. After heating the coarse salt to the point where it was warm to the touch, he carefully moved the pots away and placed them on the wooden frame. Then, he placed two barrels of garlic on top of them, covered them, and let them sit for an hour.
After an hour, he poured the white wine over the surface and left it for another hour.
After that, Zhu Su spread the linen cloth on top of the copper pot. Then, he scooped out the minced garlic and spread it on the linen cloth, filtering the juice. When the juice was almost full, Zhu Su stopped.
He began to heat up the copper pot. At the same time, he found a coarse cloth to wrap the condensing pipe connected to the copper pot. While heating the copper pot, he kept watering it.
When Zhu Su got the first portion of garlic, the moon was already high. He came to Xu Da's tent with the porcelain bottle filled with garlic in high spirits and prepared to have dinner. Only then did he know that it was already past the mealtime.
" Nephew, it's fine. I'll ask Wang Quan to prepare a meal for you." Xu Da looked at Zhu Su with a smile and conveyed a piece of good news to him."After using the medicinal powder you sent, your Uncle Chang finally woke up in the evening. His spirit was also better, and his symptoms of high fever had improved a lot.”After saying that, Xu Da patted Zhu Su's shoulder fiercely. His attitude was very different from before.
Mm, Zhu Su had to admit that Huaixi people only played with reality.
Xu Da's kind attitude immediately reminded Zhu Su of a greasy middle-aged emperor in Jinling City. After he made the refined salt, he stroked his head and called himself "Saint Child".
Hmm…No wonder they were brothers.
"It's great that Uncle Chang can get better. Oh right, Uncle Xu, there's also this.”Zhu Su took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Xu Da.""Give this to Uncle Chang. His wound can't worsen.”
"This is?" Xu Da looked at the porcelain bottle in his hand and asked in puzzlement.
"I used garlic to make it. Uncle Chang's wound is inflamed and has pus.”Zhu Su said with a smile.
"Garlic can be used to refine medicine?" Xu Da obviously didn't believe it.
" I'll try it." Zhu Su was in a good mood when he saw Wang Quan walking in from outside the tent and watching the tofu and Crucian Carp soup.
"Regardless of the final result of this matter, my dear nephew…" Xu Da looked at Zhu Su, who had picked up his bowl and chopsticks, with a gratified expression."The two uncles owe you a favor.”
Zhu Su picked up a piece of tofu and said with a smile,""As long as the two of you are safe and sound, I have no guilt.
As for those words of thanks, please don't say them anymore.
I only hope that when I go back this time, you and Uncle Chang can plead for mercy for me in front of Imperial Father. I'm already so old, yet you're so heavy on me every time. Aren't you afraid that you'll beat me up…"
Just as Zhu Su finished speaking, Xu Da burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, don't worry, nephew. This time, Uncle Xu will definitely risk his life to protect your ass under His Majesty's dragon's might!”
