Chapter 25. Indians Who Can't Die From Plague
When Wang Qiu and the others arrived, the T virus from another world had obviously spread in Weicha Village.
It is ironic that the first patient who fell ill was not Mr. Chandra who returned from another world. It is even possible that this Mr. Chandra was not infected at all in the other world—as this time Souvenirs of world travel, Mr. Chandra's wife, Karina, bought a lot of various gadgets, including two authentic Scottish fold cat... After returning to his hometown, Mr. Chandra gave some of the trinkets to the servants at will, and at the same time gave the cat to the servants to take care of.
As a result, the first one who fell ill was a male servant in charge of taking care of the cat. He suddenly started vomiting blood while bathing the folded ear cat. The housekeeper thought he was infected with tuberculosis, so he ordered everyone to take him home disapprovingly. , died on the next day, it was said - not a big deal in India, especially in the impoverished state of Bihar, where tens of thousands of people die every year from various contagious diseases : Malaria, cholera, dengue fever, tuberculosis, jaundice, and the inevitable flu every year will harvest countless lives in this magical land of India.
But then, the servants in the mansion began to fall ill one by one, and even the owner, Mr. Chandra, had a high fever, and those two fold-eared cats ran away to nowhere... jumping in a hurry The housekeeper hurriedly invited a doctor from the local countryside, but no matter whether he gave antipyretic injections, took antipyretic tablets, or even put suppositories in his buttocks, nothing worked. In the end, even the doctor himself fell ill with a fever.When the housekeeper was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, he was naturally overjoyed to see Wang Qiu and the others, especially Teacher Ju Chuan Shizuka, coming with a medical kit with a red cross on his back.
Unfortunately, in the real world where Doraemon's magical props cannot be used, Wang Qiu and the others have no reliable treatment for the T virus in "Resident Evil", and their current thoughts are not at all focused on coma On the unconscious Mr. Chandra—after giving the patient a dose of fever-reducing injections indiscriminately and at the same time hanging up glucose saline, Wang Qiu and his team hurriedly began to investigate the spread of the virus.The housekeeper of the Shukla family was also aware of the seriousness of the situation and was very cooperative with it. In addition to insisting that Dr. Ju Chuan Shizuka stay to take care of the master, he was omnipotent to Wang Qiu and Li Wei's request, and even sent a driver to drive He took a three-wheeled motorcycle and drove them around the village to check the epidemic situation.
The results of field observations are very, very pessimistic—not only half of the servants in the Shukla family mansion fell ill, but the village is already full of sick people: those servants who asked for leave to go home because of illness, and those who insisted on sickness The guys at work have all become mobile sources of infection. Through frequent close contact, before Wang Qiu and the others arrived, they pushed the entire Weicha Village into the abyss of destruction of the biochemical weapon T-virus...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
As we all know, India is a densely populated place, and Bihar, which is located in the essence of the Ganges River Basin, has a population of more than 1 million, is surrounded by water networks and faces each other, and is one of the most densely populated places even in India.Therefore, Vicha Village, where Mr. Chandra lives, is called a village in name, but actually has a population of up to [-]. It can already be called a small city in places like Russia and Canada where the land is sparsely populated.
However, from the perspective of infrastructure, this village is obviously not as good as many remote settlements in developed countries, and there are all kinds of strange things full of Indian characteristics everywhere-although the local government has installed telephone poles because of its political achievements, But there was no electricity; although a faucet was installed for the same reason, water never came out; the only public phone booth in the village was of course a decoration, but it miraculously received cell phone signals!Therefore, those who have mobile phones in the village go to the market regularly to charge them. There are often peddlers riding tricycles, pulling privately modified car batteries and fast chargers (which can be imagined as extra-large charging treasures) for charging. Country folk who have no electricity at home sell electricity.
It is conceivable that there is no hospital in Weicha Village, only an open space full of weeds and three cornerstones of the village hospital.Because there have been three governments here in recent years, and before each election, politicians promised to build hospitals for each major village, so there were three more stones.
Fortunately, in a neighboring village half a kilometer away from Vicha Village, there is a public hospital that provides universal free medical care with Indian characteristics. Except for those who are lying at home waiting to die, most of the patients in the village are sent there.
When Wang Qiu and the others arrived at the public hospital in the twilight, they found that there was no complete piece of glass on the window of the hospital, and weeds were growing under the wall, and there were goats and wild cats infesting, as if it had been abandoned for many years. of.But inside the hospital was full of people, moaning and coughing patients, a kerosene lamp hung on the beam flickered on and off, and all kinds of unpleasant smells came out from the open door...
Wang Qiu went in and turned around, and found that the doors of all the wards were missing, as were the hospital beds, medical equipment, doctors and nurses. There were no benches to sit on, and the patients could only spread newspapers on the dirty floor as seats. While enduring the torment of the disease, they waited for the doctor to arrive.Seeing Wang Qiu and the others come in, all the patients looked expectantly, but when they found out that they were not doctors, they yelled again in disappointment.
"...Ahem! He vomited blood again! It was you who gave me this disease! Now we are all going to die!"
"...That's not true! It's you who infected me! Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
"...the only doctor in this place is probably still working part-time in a private hospital in the city! Isn't this the case in public hospitals in the countryside? Except when government officials come to check up every year, the doctors in public hospitals are never seen! They all do it. Live privately!"
"... Isn't this too wicked? Are they worthy of the salary paid by the government?"
"...No way, everyone is like this! And doctors may not get paid! The government officials in our place are really too greedy. Public hospitals often don't pay their salaries for several months. If the doctors don't do private work , do you want them to starve to death?"
"...But you have to find out where the doctor is! I know the doctor's mobile phone number! Who can lend me your mobile phone?"
"...Ahem! It's useless, I know where the doctor is! My son just saw him yesterday!"
"...What? Tell me, where did the doctor go?" (While spitting blood, he grabbed the other party's collar violently)
"...Let go! You idiot! The doctor has been invited by Shukla's house in Vicha Village!"
"...Shukla's family? The land that owns three villages, and the Shukla's family who is an MP in Delhi?"
"...Yes, besides them, which Shukla family is there? A noble Brahmin who has been passed down for thousands of years! Apart from the land here, even the nearby rivers belong to his family. The fisherman catches a fish from the river. Every time the boatman ferries a person, he has to pay him a share!"
"...What a black heart!"
"... Alas, compared to the landlords in our village, they are already doing just fine! At least they didn't set up cards on the roads leaving the village to buy road money..."
"...The landlord in our village is even more extreme. Anyone who wants to work in the city has to hand over one-third of his income to him... Cough cough, anyway, the only doctor here has been called away, I guess we have to wait until the doctor The doctor will come back only when Mr. Shukla recovers or dies..."
——Wang Qiu thought to himself, in fact, even the doctor himself was brought down by the T-virus, you probably can only wait for the zombie doctor to see the doctor...
……
While the patients were muttering, a young man couldn't bear it any longer.Although the patient's wife was still trying to feed him some water, he immediately vomited it mixed with blood, and then his whole black and thin body began to twitch, vomiting blood profusely, scaring a little girl next to him into crying... … Moments later, amidst the heartrending cries of his wife, the poor man died.
However, despite the miserable cries of the family members, everyone just looked at the still warm corpse on the ground with indifferent eyes. Take the dead away to make room for the living.
Of course, before taking the dead man away, he had to wipe off the blood he spit out, so as not to infect others...
Next, there was a sudden burst of shouting and cursing outside the hospital door. Wang Qiu poked his head out to see. It turned out that there were some untouchables who were sick. Immediately, he picked up the stick viciously and drove away these untouchable filthy people.
——Even in this precarious and anxious time, some deep-rooted class discrimination remains completely unshakable...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"... Sigh! The feeling of this place... is like being in Raccoon City in the early days of the T virus leak in Resident Evil!"
Wang Qiu shook his head and sighed, and said to Li Wei, "...there is a gloomy aura of death and despair everywhere..."
"...I feel like I have returned to Europe in the era of the Black Death... the dead have already begun to appear now!"
The former French paladin Li Wei also shook his head, and at the same time stuffed the hidden pistol back into his pocket, "...Fortunately, he died directly, instead of undergoing a corpse transformation and becoming a zombie... Otherwise, this place will directly enter the rhythm of the end of the world ..."
"...I'm afraid it's only a few days before the end!" Wang Qiu smiled bitterly, "...At present, the number of patients we have seen alone has exceeded 300. Not only in Weicha Village, but also in several nearby villages. Infected people have appeared. In addition, according to Teacher Shizuka's test, some goats, buffaloes and other animals also showed signs of infection! What's worse, I heard that there are a few patients with relatively well-off families who just raised money Hired a car and went to the urban area of Bodh Gaya to seek medical treatment... It is estimated that the T virus will also spread, and then the epidemic will become even more out of control..."
"... Tsk tsk, in the past Indians always tried to get the headlines. Now they finally made a big death and made a big news."
Looking at a group of patients coughing and vomiting, Li Wei pinched his nose in disgust, "...Looking at this situation, we obviously have nothing to do. I don't know how the central government will deal with it after reporting it? Will it Would you just throw a nuclear bomb over to disinfect and wash the ground?"
"...It's hard to say! From the standpoint of various major countries, no matter how slim the success rate is, no matter how serious the consequences are, all countries in the world will do their best to curb the spread of the T virus. For this reason, they will not hesitate to use all means, even death Drop the last Indian..."
Wang Qiu shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "...But even so, I'm afraid it's too late! Don't forget how many foreign tourists there are in Bodh Gaya!"
"...Damn it!" Li Wei cursed, "...Is there no other way? I don't want to spend time with zombies!"
"...Anyway, I can't think of any countermeasures. The nuclear explosion in the plot world of "Resident Evil" couldn't prevent the destruction of the world?"
Wang Qiu looked at the moon in the night sky with a vicissitudes of life, "... Maybe we should consider the possibility of immigrating to a certain plot world..."
Just when the two were speechless and extremely frustrated, Wang Qiu's cell phone rang suddenly.After he connected the phone, he said a few words, and Wang Qiu's expression gradually became strange, and he even showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
Then, he hung up the phone, looked back at Li Wei who was bewildered for a while, and then said hesitantly:
"...It was Teacher Shizuka who called just now...that Mr. Chandra...has already started to have a fever and woke up?!"
"...What?! How is this possible?!!!" Li Wei couldn't help but exclaimed.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
When Wang Qiu and the others returned to the Shukla family mansion in the dark, they saw Ju Chuan Shizuka in a white coat holding a small box, nagging at Mr. Housekeeper: "...that doctor gave you a The imported Japanese antipyretics injected by the owner have been expired for three years on the label, and it is not clear whether it is because he does not understand Japanese, so it is lucky that he did not get poisoned and went to heaven. How could it make people recover? "
"...This hateful bastard! How dare he fool the noble Shukla family! What does he think of the master?"
Upon hearing that the master was treated like this, the housekeeper waved his fists a few times angrily, "...he must be made to pay the heaviest price!"
"...Uh, in fact, fate has already punished him. This guy is still very sick, even with a fever that hasn't subsided at all!"
"...But we can't let it go like this! I'll let people throw this quack doctor back to his crappy hospital!"
——Wipe a tear of sympathy for the poor Indian rural doctor with two knives.
……
At the same time, Wang Qiu and Li Wei checked around, and were even more surprised to find that not only Mr. Chandra Shukla, the master, was able to sit up and drink some rice porridge, but even the servant who fell ill before was able to sit up and drink some rice porridge. After Ju Chuan Shizuka received antibiotics and antipyretic injections, she gradually began to improve.
——According to Ju Chuan Shizuka, some of them actually got a cold and then deteriorated into pneumonia, but some of them were really infected with the T virus, but in Ju Chuan Shizuka, it was at best equivalent to a random placebo Under the treatment, he recovered gradually.
"...It should be said...the Indian people are indeed nourished by the Ganges River. They grew up drinking the Ganges river's floating corpse water rich in bacteria and pollutants. Has their immune system been trained to be invincible? God Ah! Even the T virus can withstand it!!"
Looking at a patient who was curled up in a corner and vomiting blood a few hours ago, his complexion is much better now, Wang Qiu couldn't help saying in surprise.
"...Actually, if it were you, you would still be able to withstand it! We all imagined the T virus to be too scary! But we never thought that the T virus that left the plot world could also cause the "Resident Evil" Zombie frenzy?"
Ju Chuan Shizuka took off her thick mask, wiped off her sweat, and panted, "...Actually, just like the black technology props in the world of Doraemon, they are useless in this world. Resident Evil T virus, the harmful power in this world is obviously also greatly restricted. According to my observation and judgment, at best, it is equivalent to a new type of influenza virus that is slightly more powerful and has a relatively high mortality rate.
In fact, if the T virus infected people in this world can be properly treated, the death rate should be controlled at a fairly low level... By the way, Political Commissar Guo just called, and his research on T virus has also been completed. new progress……"
——A moment later, after talking with Commissar Guo, Wang Qiu sat down with a look of disappointment on his face, and heaved a long sigh. Tangled...
The imaginary end of the world is probably not coming, because the T-virus that came to the real world is far less terrible than in the plot world-as Ju Chuan Shizuka said just now, its lethality is only equivalent to Terrible influenza.
Relying on the T-virus antibody test tube brought back by Wang Qiu and the samples collected in another world, under the tremendous pressure from Zhongnanhai, several secret research institutes in China even developed a vaccine.Of course, it is inevitable that some people will die because of the T virus, and the death toll may be a little bit more, but it doesn't matter. In what year has no country in the world died of influenza?
In the view of Wang Qiu, who has witnessed the end of the world many times, as long as it is not the kind of disaster of subversion of civilization and extinction of human beings, it is not a big deal.
From this point of view, this trip to India has ended successfully, and we can go back after playing around... Wang Qiuru thought.
However, the facts will soon prove that Wang Qiu really relaxed too early.
——First of all, although the global zombie crisis will not appear, a global influenza outbreak is still inevitable; secondly, as a traveler, a reincarnation of infinite space who travels through countless worlds, Wang Qiu himself is Possesses the attributes of attracting plague gods and bad luck generators, no matter in the plot world of infinite space, or in the real world "outside the box", wherever you go, you will bring disasters...
A catastrophe that will shake the Buddhist holy land of Bodh Gaya, and even the whole of India, has quietly entered the countdown...
