Into the Immortal Cultivation - Chapter 1859
[Chapter 18]
The origin of the corpse-refining horse plague can no longer be tested. No one knows how this plague was produced, and no one knows when and in which cannibalism it was spread.
The Qiang Di in the north are nomads who live by water and grass. Their own culture is not complete, and there is no detailed historical data, let alone this almost harmless plague that almost never infects people.
After all…
the reason why mad cow disease can spread on the earth on a large scale is because the earth has completely entered into large-scale industrial production, and the added feed such as meat and bone mud and bone meal are all produced in a unified manner. A dead cow can infect a large swath of feed, resulting in a massive infection.
However, in the northern part of Shenzhou, Qiang Di only added meat and bone mud to the forage based on the idea of “no waste”, or it was a herdsman with a certain amount of furniture, and it was not rare to eat livestock that died of illness and old age, or it was a war. , the horses died on a massive scale.
What is certain is that this plague has accompanied the Qiang and Di people for more than 10,000 years.
Even if it is true as Song Shufu said, it can cause death, it will only be a sporadic phenomenon, such as a few years.
Under such circumstances, there seems to be nothing special about this temperature, and it is not necessarily necessary to study it.
There are many more research objects in the God of Plague Forest.
“As far as I got before the research… Observational experience, after the corpse refining horse plague infects people, the biggest feature is that it is more resistant to spells and hangs.” Song Shufu put his hands behind his back and said, “I originally wanted to Applying for funding based on this, but it was a failure. Because even if the corpse refining horse plague can resist magic treatment, it is essentially impossible to infect the monks, you come with me.” The
two went all the way inward, passing two magic circles After that, Chen Feng officially entered the Department of Demonstration.
Different from what Chen Feng imagined, only the basic dust-free and aseptic processing was carried out here, and there was no strict guard. Song Shufu just handed him a talisman and completed all the isolation measures.
Because, this plague… there is really no possibility of infecting monks. Therefore, as long as the protective measures are not lower than the prescribed minimum standards, it will be as simple as possible.
Song Shufu took Chen Feng to a stable. On the floor of this stable, there is a magic circle, which is the basic method of hanging life, sending vitality into the creatures in the stable. There is a pony in the circle. The pony’s eyes were blank, its limbs twitched, its head rested on the railing, and its saliva was dripping. Song Shufu stretched out his hand and gently touched the pony’s forehead. The pony twitched and kicked its limbs, as if trying to stand up. But it completely loses this functionality. Soon, it fell to the ground.
“According to the plan, it will be put to death this afternoon. This is already the end of the corpse refining horse plague. If you hang your life, it will be overinfected. That is pure torture, and research at this stage is unnecessary.” The
so-called “overinfection” , that is, according to the number and density of pathogens in the body, it is impossible for you not to die, but there is a spell that hangs your life, prevents you from dying, and directly treats you as a state of pathogen culture.
This is a phenomenon unique to this world.
Overinfection only occurs when a monk hangs his life on a mortal. For monks, pathogens either cannot cause disease, or they will cause functional disorders, and there will never be an overinfection. Overinfection is still a marginal research, and only a few monks in the Plague Forest have dabbled in it. Since this does not belong to a phenomenon that can be formed naturally, research on the subject of plague generally does not need to involve excessive infection.
Chen Feng nodded, and for some reason, Ye Suqi’s original pathology report flashed past.
Pure torture…
“The biggest characteristic of corpse refining horse plague is that it is easy to cause excessive infection. I really don’t know why…” Song Shu paused, frowned at Chen Feng, and said, “What’s wrong with you?”
“No , I just remembered something about the empirical department.” Chen Feng said.
“Well, then I’ll go on.” Song Shufu said: “But on the other hand, the effect of the flame of life on this plague is really minimal. You know, if you don’t understand the characteristics of a certain plague, Directly infuse the flame of life into a patient with a simple and rude method, and both the patient and the pathogen will be strengthened. However, this is not the case with the corpse-refining horse plague. If you use the flame of life to bless for a long time, there will be a situation of ‘non-infection’. And if it is in the incubation period of plague… no, at least enough flame of life is injected before the onset, and there is a small probability of recovery.”
Chen Fengyi Leng: “So… this kind of life form of plague must be very low?”
“Well, very low.” Song Shufu said: “This point, I will explain to you later. If you don’t If you mind, wait a minute, we can dissect this sick horse together.”
Chen Feng nodded and pondered.
After a while, a teenager ran in and said, “Master, yesterday’s demonstrative creatures have all been graded and numbered. In addition, the C-character dissection table is ready, and the high-concentration formaldehyde solution is also ready. Ah, are there any guests here?”
After speaking, the young man respectfully saluted Chen Feng.
Song Shufu has not been able to produce any influential research success all the year round, so he can’t find any researcher. Although he can hire those who are not very high-level practitioners from outside disciples, but in many cases, it is with his own funds. Give people practice. Moreover, under the system of Tianlingling, those disciples would also prefer to choose a larger Demonstration Department, get more training opportunities, or exchange for the guidance of high-level monks.
Song Shufu’s apprentice was only recruited this year.
Song Shufu nodded and led Chen Feng and his apprentice into the autopsy room.
Gently use a knife on the back of the sick horse’s neck to gently press the brain stem. The sick horse gave one last convulsion, and then the heart stopped beating.
Song Shufu silently threw the sick horse on the dissection table, recorded multiple data such as weight and figure, and then pulled away the remaining soul. Immediately afterwards, Song Shu resumed his hand and wiped it off the horse, Yunzhen fire burned the hair without hurting the flesh. Immediately afterwards, he took out the horse’s skin and completely peeled off the skull.
When he saw the brains of this batch of horses, Chen Feng took a deep breath.
This doesn’t look like a “brain” at least not like a mammalian brain at all.
The brain tissue in front of him is full of countless small holes, giving the impression that it is similar to a sponge, completely rotten meat. The rotten flesh is full of vacuoles caused by tissue necrosis, and there are signs of massive cellular fibrosis.
Not like a normal brain at all.
At the same time, it doesn’t look like a product of the Citrine Plague at all.
Song Shufu calmly removed the horse’s entire brain, used magic to remove the blood and water, put it into a very high concentration of weighted solution, then marked it and sealed it.
Song Shufu is very skilled in this set of operations, even if the cultivation base is higher than him, it may not be able to do better.
“Did you see it?” Song Shufu asked: “This is the end of the corpse refining horse plague.”
Chen Feng nodded solemnly: “It’s…it’s terrible.”
“Of course, this is not the most magical place.” Song Shufu lowered his head, and then completed the rest of the operation: “I’ll show you my biggest discovery later.”
Soon, all the valuable things on this pony were removed. Song Shufu gave the rest of the finishing touch to his apprentice. After he finished his rationale, he took the two tubes of the horse’s spinal fluid, and took Chen Feng to the other side.
That’s the specimen room.
Numerous intact specimens, as well as paraffin-fixed pathological tissue specimens.
This huge amount shows how much time this man spends on this.
What surprised Chen Feng was that Song Shufu actually asked him to take a random specimen from the specimen cabinet. Chen Feng doubtfully removed a specimen immersed in a high-concentration formaldehyde solution. From the label, this should have been put here three months ago.
After arriving at the Demonstration Department, Song Shufu first activated an array, igniting a flame, and said, “About three hundred degrees.” After speaking, he placed a tube of tissue fluid on the flames and baked it. In the originally translucent liquid, a large number of flocs quickly appeared, and the whole became turbid.
That is a sign of the degeneration of the source of life.
Then, he took out the specimen from the formaldehyde solution, gently cut off a corner, and washed it. To be honest, this is very difficult, because the brain of the sick horse is really broken when touched. After washing it, Song Shufu threw the sample into another test tube and shook it gently. Rou Jin smashed the sample, and Xing Chen had a small tube of turbid liquid.
Immediately after, Song Shufu brought out another tube of tissue fluid. He fixed it on an iron frame, then walked a few steps away, closing his eyes and accumulating energy.
Chen Feng was a little unclear, so he said, “Senior Brother Song, you are…”
“Show the vitality of corpse-refining horse plague.” Song Shufu opened his eyes and said, “Three hundred degrees of high temperature is not enough to kill the activity of corpse-refining horse plague. .And even after being immersed in a high-concentration formaldehyde solution for a long time, these tissues can still isolate active pathogens. In addition, this is the most important…”
Song Shufu’s palm erupted with a silver light. Immediately, the silver light stabilized and turned into a halo in Song Shufu’s palm.
This is Tiange Xing.
Chen Feng was stunned. He didn’t expect that this same sect actually has such high attainments in Tiange Xing.
At the same time…
“Senior Brother Song, you show your Tiange practice to…”
“Watch it!” Song Shufu shouted, with a little pride in his eyes.
In an instant, the silver brilliance turned into seven colors, and the seven colors returned to purple, and the er and purple were also turned away.
Tiange Wuxiang Jianqi is based on UV-based spells.
