Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 570: Treating Chicken Plague (1)

After Uncle Yang led the team leader and Liu Jingxue to arrive, the Yang family had been watching from the side.

Originally, the Yang family wanted to ask Liu Jingxue if there was any solution, but they were stopped by the team leader and Uncle Yang. Didn’t they see that Liu Zhiqing was observing the sick chickens? If they couldn’t help, they shouldn’t make trouble.

When Aunt Yang heard Liu Jingxue talking about the treatment method, she was the first to speak up.

"Liu Zhiqing, tell us how to deal with this. We will listen to you."

The other members of the Yang family also spoke one by one.

"Yes, Liu Zhiqing, just speak up, we will do as you say.

You must cure our chickens."

"This chicken coop needs to be cleaned several times, and the hay in the cages needs to be replaced.

After cleaning out the hay and feces, do not throw them away casually. They must be burned to prevent the spread of chicken plague.

Do you have lime at home? If so, after cleaning the chicken coop, sprinkle some lime in the chicken coop for disinfection. "

"We have lime at home. We'll sprinkle it on after the chicken coop is cleaned," Aunt Yang replied.

“Peel and chop the garlic at home, mix it in the chicken feed and feed it to the chickens.

If they don’t eat, you have to force them to eat even if you feed them, to make sure they eat it.”

After Liu Jingxue finished speaking, she handed the mugwort and isatis root she brought to Aunt Yang and said, "After cleaning the chicken coop, light the mugwort and put it in the chicken coop for fumigation every once in a while.

As for the isatis roots, chop them into pieces and sprinkle them around the chickens, letting them peck at them.

If you run out of these, you can go to the health center to get some.”

“I have a lot of mugwort at home, it should be enough.

If the blue and white plates are used up, we will go to the health center to get more.

"Liu Zhiqing, if you do this, will the chicken plague be cured?" Aunt Yang asked anxiously.

"These have a certain therapeutic effect, but they cannot cure it. What they can do more is to prevent the chicken plague from getting worse and slow down the onset of the disease.

When I return, I will research and develop a drug that can quickly treat chicken plague and send it to you as soon as possible."

"Okay, Liu Zhiqing, thank you for your help. Please get the medicine out as soon as possible."

After giving her instructions, Liu Jingxue left the Yang family, and the team leader followed her.

"Captain, you just touched a sick chicken. When you go back, fumigate your clothes and shoes with mugwort. Don't touch the poultry in your home."

When the captain heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, I know.

Xiaoxue, the Yang family’s chickens are confirmed to be infected with fowl plague. I don’t know if the chickens from other families have the same condition.

You mentioned earlier that you let the chickens eat garlic, isatis, and smoked wormwood. If the chickens are not infected, can they be used?"

"You can use any of them. I told you to feed your chickens some garlic from time to time. Garlic has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties.

Isatis root itself is non-toxic. It can cure diseases by taking it, and can also prevent diseases by taking it if you are not sick.

As for fumigating with mugwort, there is no problem at all." Liu Jingxue replied.

"Then I'll just have people go door to door and tell everyone to do the same, so as to prevent the spread of chicken plague.

Xiaoxue, please go and research and see if you can develop a drug to treat chicken plague."

The captain was worried about putting too much pressure on Liu Jingxue, but he didn't ask her to get the medicine out as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, Captain. I will do my best as soon as possible."

After separating from the captain, Liu Jingxue walked home, but her consciousness was always focused on the captain.

She was mainly worried that the captain would not listen to her and bring the virus back home, making her research subjects sick.

You have to know that the poultry in the captain's house have been raised for almost three months. Not to mention other things, the two pigs alone weigh nearly 80 kilograms.

According to Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, as recounted by the team leader, the pigs they usually raise often weigh less than 100 kilograms in ten months.

Now, in less than three months, the pig already weighs nearly 80 kilograms. It should be noted that this is not yet the pig's rapid growth period, so it is easy to imagine how big the pig can grow in the future.

As for the other poultry, they were also growing well and were twice the size of the ones Liu Jingxue observed with her spiritual sense at Secretary Xu's home.

Liu Jingxue also wanted the villagers to see the results of the feed and thus vigorously develop breeding, but she didn't want to give up halfway because of the team leader's negligence.

Although it is not known whether fowl plague can be transmitted to other poultry besides chickens, ducks and geese, it is better to be cautious at this critical juncture.

Fortunately, the team leader was a cautious person. After he ordered the gate to be opened, he did not allow his family members to get close to him. He told his eldest and second sons about Liu Jingxue's prescription from a distance and asked them to notify every household.

He also asked someone to bring him change of clothes, lime and mugwort.

I disinfected and fumigated my clothes and shoes repeatedly before changing clothes and putting them outside to ventilate.

After seeing what the captain did, Liu Jingxue breathed a sigh of relief, and was glad that he listened to her words.

Liu Jingxue went to Yang's house again the next day. After knocking on the gate, the eldest child of the Yang family opened the gate.

Liu Jingxue knew this child, his name was Dajiang.

Children in rural areas are named Dawa, Erwa, Dazhu, Erzhu, Dashun, Ershun, Dajiang, Dahe, etc. These are considered good.

Some are dog eggs, donkey eggs, dung eggs and the like. It is said that the untouchables are easy to feed.

Liu Jingxue felt that dog eggs and donkey eggs were barely acceptable, but fecal eggs were totally unnecessary. This would cause a huge psychological trauma to the child.

When he opened the gate and saw Liu Jingxue, Dajiang quickly greeted her, "Sister Xiaoxue, you're here."

"Dajiang, how are your chickens doing? Are they getting sicker?"

Although she had checked with her spiritual sense and confirmed that the condition of the Yang family's chickens was not getting worse, Liu Jingxue still asked this question. After all, she had never visited the Yang family openly, so she had to ask as soon as she came.

"Sister Xiaoxue, your methods are really effective.

My chickens seem to be more energetic, occasionally walking around and eating their own food."

"As long as it works."

After following Dajiang into the house, Liu Jingxue was warmly welcomed by the entire Yang family.

You know, in rural areas, chickens are regarded as chicken butt banks. Now that the chickens have contracted chicken plague, the Yang family from top to bottom is worried.

You have to know that in the past, if chickens were infected with fowl plague, they would basically all be thrown away.

But after following Liu Jingxue's method yesterday, the condition of their chickens seemed to be under control. They were naturally happy and placed all their hopes on Liu Jingxue.

Yang Bo looked at Liu Jingxue hopefully, "Liu Zhiqing, come and take a look at my chickens.

Their condition today is better than yesterday. Can they be cured by following the methods you mentioned before?"

"Uncle Yang, don't worry, let me take a look first."
