Chapter 145: A Ray of Hope

Sun Ce's tiger eyes were filled with tears as he said, "It's been several days and yet you have become so thin, Master!"

Guo Jia weakly raised his hand and patted Sun Ce's shoulder, saying, "Bo Fu, don't assume such a childish attitude. If others were to see the Little Conqueror of Jiangdong shedding tears, they would surely burst into laughter."

感受到郭嘉拍向自己肩膀的那只手的无力,孙策心中的悲伤又多了几分“若是我身败名裂可让先生痊愈,策甘愿如此!”

郭嘉笑了笑,旋即,他反应过来了,挣脱典韦的搀扶,质问道“汝等为何在此!这。。。。。。咳咳咳。。。。。。这里是。。。。。。”

Guo Jia suddenly became agitated and started coughing. Dian Wei quickly pat his back, while Sun Ce, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Xiahou Shang hurriedly instructed someone to bring a Hu bed to support Guo Jia to sit down.

As the oldest among the four, Cao Zhen immediately knelt down in front of Cao Peng. "Teacher, you're seriously ill. How can we, as your students, ignore your well-being? Could it be that you no longer consider us as disciples?"

言罢,曹休、夏侯尚、孙策三人也跪下了,郭嘉指着四人,责骂道“竖子!汝等皆为大将之才!将来定是我曹军的顶梁柱!而我,我郭奉孝,咳咳咳。。。。。。我说不定。。。。。。就死在这里了。。。。。。你们这样。。。。。。对得起孟德对你们的培养吗!对得起你们的爹娘吗!”

The action of Cao Zhen and the other three kneeling down startled the nearby soldiers.

Everyone knew that Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang, and Sun Ce had studied military tactics under the guidance of Guo Jia. However, considering their age difference of only five years with Guo Jia, no one really saw them as true master and disciples. Translation completed. How can I assist you further?

Cao Zhen is Cao Cao's adopted son and a nobleman of the Cao family; Cao Xiu is also Cao Cao's nephew and was praised by Cao Cao as "the fleet horse of our family"; Xiahou Shang is the son of Xiahou Yuan's deceased older brother, and Xiahou Yuan treated him like his own son; Sun Ce, despite his young age, is already a top-notch mid-level warrior with exceptional martial arts talent, and he has inherited his father Sun Jian's title of Wucheng Marquis, with a bright future ahead. These four individuals are all skilled in military affairs and are the elite of the next generation of Cao's army.

In terms of seniority, the five of them are more or less equal, so they can be considered as the same generation. However, at this moment, the four of them are being scolded by Guo Jia like grandsons, to the point where they dare not even make a sound, showing no mercy at all.

However, these four unusually arrogant young men did not get angry at all.

"No matter what, we are already here. Can the teacher still chase us away? What if we spread the epidemic outside? In any case, we are sticking with the teacher!" Cao Xiu chuckled. Translated:

"Indeed, indeed! We must not burden our fellow soldiers!" Xiahou Shang chuckled and echoed. This made Guo Jia smile wryly, feeling a warm sentiment in his heart. Although Cao Xiu and Xiahou Shang's tone was slightly frivolous, even a bit cheeky, it conveyed a strong concern and determination. Translated content:

Indeed, indeed! We must not burden our fellow soldiers!

These four young men, risking their lives, traveled a thousand miles from Xuchang, with Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Xiahou Shang even coming along. Looking at the three of them covered in dust and seeing the four of them kneeling on the ground, Guo Jia cannot deny that he is moved. Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang, and Sun Ce, all four of them possess an unwavering loyalty. This kind of sincerity cannot be bought with any wealth. Guo Jia looked at them and couldn't help but smile.

“算了,既然你们这么决定,便随你们吧。”

而后,张仲景领着一帮太医院的太医入营,郭嘉又是好一番赞叹古人的高义,这才是真正的医者仁心,与后世无数黑心医生相比,真是令人感慨不已。

见到了张仲景,说实话,郭嘉的心中也多出了几分活下去的信心,再加上见到了曹真、曹休、夏侯尚和孙策四人,心中既是感动也有欢喜,便想起了后世华夏一位获得了世界医学大奖的屠姓女士引领的医学团队的医学成果似乎正是针对疟疾的。

Artemisinin!

Guo Jia assumed without basis that artemisinin is extracted from Artemisia annua, so it should have some effect in treating malaria.

In fact, Guo Jia was mistaken. Artemisinin is not extracted from Artemisia annua, but from Artemisia apiacea. However, fortunately, ancient people referred to both modern plants as Artemisia annua and Artemisia apiacea, and collectively called them "qinghao" in Chinese.

As for the mention of Qinghao by Guo Jia, Zhang Zhongjing felt somewhat surprised. Having practiced medicine for many years, he truly had no knowledge about Qinghao's ability to treat malaria. With a serious expression, Zhang Zhongjing asked Guo Jia, "Master Guo, how did you come to know that Qinghao can treat malaria?"

Not to mention, just because of these tens of thousands of soldiers, Zhang Zhongjing cannot easily believe in Guo Jia's words. It concerns human life, and moreover, if this method is truly effective, it will benefit millions of people and future generations.

郭嘉一时也是不知如何回复张仲景,张仲景却以为郭嘉是有难言之隐,于是将郭嘉拉到一旁询问郭嘉其中缘故。郭嘉灵机一动,将锅甩给了自己的恩师王业。

"Mr. Zhongjing, do you know about Guiguzi?"

"The foremost strategist, the master of mystic gates - Guiguzi!" Zhang Zhongjing blurted out.

Guo Jia couldn't believe that Zhang Zhongjing actually blurted out those two sentences. However, since Zhang Zhongjing had some knowledge about Guiguzi, it would be easier for Guo Jia to manipulate him.

"Jia Zheng is the contemporary successor of Guiguzi Wangye. I once traveled with my mentor and heard that there was an outbreak of malaria ghosts in a certain place. My mentor said that he had seen an ancient medical technique book written by Bian Que, which recorded a prescription for treating people who were haunted by malaria ghosts using Qinghao (Artemisia annua)." Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

(In ancient times, people were accustomed to attributing all inexplicable difficulties and problems to ghosts and gods, and malaria was no exception. They often believed that this disease was caused by the invasion of malaria ghosts into the human body, and this belief was held both in China and abroad.) Please note that the "@" symbol cannot be translated as it does not exist in English.

根据中医文化史学者范家伟的研究,疟鬼观念的出现至少可以追溯至汉代,一直到唐代都在古人的生活世界中发挥重要影响。从汉代伊始,疟鬼是令人患疟的鬼物,起初疟鬼只视为小儿鬼。魏晋以后,对于疟鬼的观念起了变化,从小儿鬼一变而成众多枉死鬼,而且按十二时辰发作而有不同的枉死鬼。)

"This is truly a prescription from the Bureau of Bian Que! Lord Guo, we cannot treat this matter as a joke. Let me examine his medical skills!" Zhang Zhongjing's eyes lit up as he grabbed Guo Jia's shoulder, disregarding Guo Jia's current condition, causing him to groan in pain repeatedly.

"Unfortunately, this book was lost during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and my mentor also felt great regret." Guo Jia pretended to lament, and Zhang Zhongjing also couldn't help but sigh. Afterward, he believed Guo Jia's words and hoped that Guo Jia could send some soldiers who currently show no symptoms to accompany the doctors from the hospital to collect Artemisia annua."
