Mage Joan

The half-elf Kailandil is the most prestigious doctor in Delin, and he has also done research on alchemy and pharmacy. There are often foreign adventurers who come here specifically to visit Mr. Kairandil, either asking him to heal wounds or diseases, or collecting rare medicinal herbs during the adventure, and selling them to Mr. Kairandil in exchange for commission.

The medicines purchased by Mr. Kailandier are varied, and the price is also determined by the efficacy of the medicine. The most weird one is the leech. A standard leech can be exchanged for a copper coin with him.

Since three days ago, Joan witnessed the sapling Mila in the woods, he gave up the idea of ​​cutting down the black oak and selling it to the sawmill, so that his economic pressure was even greater, and he had to work to raise tuition. After careful consideration, Joan believes that catching leeches for Mr. Kairandil is a good choice. The income does not seem high at first glance, but as long as the number of leeches caught is sufficient, the commission will also increase year-on-year.

The swamp in early February has already begun to show its spring colors, and there are countless leeches in the rotting mud. It stands to reason that this should be a good business that people are rushing to do, but things are not that simple.

Mr. Kailandier has a rigorous personality that pursues perfection in the elf family. It requires that the captured leech must be kept alive and free from any damage. The slippery leech is already difficult to catch, and the catcher will be bitten to **** blood. In addition, the swamp is very dangerous, and few people are willing to take such drudgery.

At first, Joan was hesitant to take up the job, but what made him feel puzzled was the use of Mr. Kairandil collecting so many leeches. It was not until this morning that he consulted with Mr. Kailandil before Joan learned that the soft, slumpy, ugly blood-sucking leeches of leech had high medical value.

In this era of Joan, medicine and theology are almost inseparable, and priests who are good at magic can use magic to heal patients directly. However, the priesthood is after all a minority of the elite in the church and rarely settles in a remote country town like Delin. The sick can only turn to the local doctor. Ordinary doctors do not have the ability to cast spells. They mainly rely on various herbs and surgical techniques to relieve pain for patients. The level of medical treatment varies from person to person, but in general, superstitious ingredients are very large. Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether the patient is cured or depends on Your own immunity overcomes the pain and restores your health. The herbs and treatments provided by the doctor may only serve as a psychological comfort.

Take Joan's hometown of Yalfheim, for example. The most popular and systematic medical theory of this century is "blood-letting therapy". This medical theory believes that the main reason why the human body suffers from illness is because the blood in the body is infected with a virus. If you want to restore health as soon as possible, it is necessary to give the patient blood.

There are a variety of tools used in bloodletting operations, rough use of daggers or knives, and the use of steel needles. The more cautious doctors will disinfect the knives with spirits before bloodletting, or roast on the fire to make a bold style. Lang Zhong even omitted these procedures. Some so-called doctors also worked as part-time shaving masters. They were still shaving and shaving for people. When they turned their faces, they picked up the razor and bleed the patient.

Such a treatment by Hu Lai, people with a little culture will suspect that it is not reliable. When Joan first learned of the "bleeding therapy", he was very disappointed, but the cases he heard and witnessed in recent years show that this seemingly barbaric treatment is actually not completely superstitious or nonsense, although it is not treated like the bragging of Jianghu Langzhong. Hundreds of diseases, but it has a significant effect on some symptoms, otherwise it will not be used as a classic in the medical world for many years.

Mr. Kailandier in Delin Town is also proficient in bloodletting therapy, but he is more cautious than the rough peers who bleed blood regardless of the patient's symptoms. Usually, only a small amount of blood is bleed when the patient is in pain. The effect of pain. Kylander's bloodletting therapy also has a major feature, that is, his bloodletting tool is neither a lancet nor a steel needle, but a cleaned leech is placed directly on the patient's affected area to **** blood.

According to Kailandier, leeches are not only substitutes for bloodletting knives, but also have many benefits that traditional bloodletting devices do not have. First, they can eliminate swelling while eliminating swelling. In addition, Through many years of medical practice, Mr. Kailandil also found that the saliva of leech has the effect of anesthetizing wounds.

This morning, Joan listened to him introduce the above-mentioned magical effect of leeches in the clinic of Mr. Kelandier, and felt refreshed and consistent with his personal experience. Joan was bitten by a leech more than once when he was walking in a rice field in summer, but the wound did not feel so painful, but felt a sense of numbness. It wasn't until after listening to Mr. Kailandil's explanation that the leech saliva also contained narcotics, so humans and animals had no pain when bitten by them, so that they didn't realize they were bitten until the leech sucked up the blood and sneaked away.

Compared with other bloodthirsty mosquitoes, leeches have another characteristic. If a person is bitten by a poisonous insect, the wound will often be infected by the virus, inflamed, swollen or even ulcerated, causing great pain to the person. Although leeches are also blood-sucking pests, they have no incidental damage other than blood-sucking, and they are usually not inflamed and sore.

Mr. Kaylandil spent years of energy to study this phenomenon in depth, and the preliminary conclusion is that there is also a magical substance in the saliva of leech, which can play the role of disinfection and sterilization and prevent inflammation and ulceration of wounds. In order to verify his theory, Mr. Kailandil has been purchasing leeches in large quantities in recent years, and used it as a material to extract the medicinal ingredients in his body. After repeated refining, two new medicaments with leech saliva as the main component are configured- Anesthetics and anti-inflammatory agents. Judging from the clinical trials, the effects of the two agents are perfect, and the purchase orders have been filled with two large drawers.

Due to the good sales momentum, Mr. Kailandier intends to expand the production of two new self-made drugs. It is a pity that the raw materials are rare. The saliva secreted by the leeches is minimal. At least a thousand leeches extracts are needed to make a bottle of medicine. This has led to extremely expensive pharmaceuticals, but still in short supply. In order to obtain a more stable supply of raw materials, Kailandier opened a pond behind his clinic on the one hand, tried to artificially raise medical leeches, and also posted a purchase notice on the bulletin board on the town office square, with a high price of 1 copper coin each. Unlimited purchase of living leeches.

Joan has been thinking about ways to make money these days. Passing through the town office square this morning, he accidentally saw the purchase notice posted on the notice board, and ran to the clinic to find Mr. Kailandier to take up this task and put on a pair. The long boots worn on rainy days rushed to the swamp to "pick up money".

It turns out that the money is really not so easy to pick up. There are indeed countless leeches in the mud, but most of these tiny mollusks show a brownish-yellow color, like a natural protective color. It is difficult to distinguish them when mixed in the mud. It is easy to find one. With a layer of slippery mucus, it's good to take off your hand and run away. If you meet your temper, you will have to bite back.

Joan tried it for half an hour by the swamp. His hands were covered with mud. He was so tired that he was sore with back pain. He was bitten by mosquitoes and had several big bales. The harvested leeches were pitiful. Even if they were all brought back to the clinic alive, it was not worth two. Silver coins.

"It seems that I have to change my mind."

Joan secretly made up his mind, and then he will try to remotely control the "Mage's Hand" instead of his own hands, salvaging the leech from the air.
