Collective of a village of villagers in Yunnan is mysterious to die suddenly The murderer was a wild mushroom unexpectedly
For many years, in nearly each summer, Death will come to this small village on the rugged highland of Yunnan Province according to appointment. Propose one mushroom as one called Li LinMei peasant woman, pass by the the intersection of village and path of end of the village, the brand-new calico curtain is hung up in front of seeing the door of a bunkhouse, she can know someone is " towed " in the village Have left. The village the intersection of Yunnan and the intersection of Dali and one light village of in the east, need one hour drive probably from the intersection of Dali and urban area. Every year, by the end of June here, the ground one by one of person who will have different ages in the village is mysterious to die. Nobody knows " The murderer " Who it is. Only doctor Li GuangHui's face comes out of the mourning hall turning white in the village. He has knit one's brows and talked to oneself: "Who is the meeting that the next one dies? " Very moment, the intersection of forest and plum Li at all will expect, make the intersection of people and stricken Death, extremely conceal in the basket in her hand probably. Mysterious murderer take place in the village and similar death case of surrounding area, known as without exception " The unidentified reason in Yunnan dies suddenly " Case. Since 1978, it is not heart disease case of mortality that already there have been the case and dozens of in the locality, included in this kind " Syndrome that the unidentified reason dies suddenly " . Just like spell, these " unidentified reasons " If you can't die suddenly being centralized always, break out,sign to die villagers successively. So, the first died person appears in the village, will often initiate the fear of other villagers. However, nobody knows " murderers " True features. 50 more than Li Lin plum of years old remember since the end of the seventies of last century, annual rainy season, have many expert come from Kunming even Beijing, creep into this piece have an elevation of 2000 meters about village. These urban residents who wear glasses always knit one's brows, scribble to paint on the notebook, then leave successively. In June of 2005, the chief epidemic disease expert of epidemiology of Center for Disease Prevention and Control of China has only led his group to come to Yunnan Dali. They and local expert in Yunnan Province, have begun the 5 - year long track work. First, they happen, die suddenly village of symptom to these, including the village here inside, have carried on the life assessment. Before this, the endemic dispensary's Deputy Director of Yunnan Province is yellow and gentle and beautiful to lead another group to let Nets go. Since 2002, yellow to work out one long dangerous the intersection of factor and list for the syndrome while being beautiful while being gentle, include above the intestinal virus infects, drinks mountain stream, gets drunk and edible vegetable oil and mushroom. "But any evidence is all unable to persuade everybody. " Liu Ji opens and says. He is a chief pharmacology family of Ins of Kunming plant,Academia Sinica, have participated in second-class and 5 -year long this and investigated and collected evidence. In order to catch arch-criminals, people try every possible means. Originally, the local expert in Yunnan inclines to belong to the cause of the death Keshan disease. On the rugged highland of this north of Yunnan, the soil lacks selenium element, it is a inducement of Keshan disease. The judgement overthrow soon, researcher of Yunnan find strange virus Sa Ke in 4 village only, this is that Keshan disease causes the fatal factor of the death. In addition, patient Keshan disease's heart muscles are after attacked by strange virus of Ke Sa, will cause organ pathological change. And nearly half hearts of persons who die suddenly " It seems to be normal " ,The heart of only some the dead shows the sign of appearing and is infected with slightly. Moreover, disease, such chronic disease in Keshan is developed slowly, has never broken out had colony naturing. The more key one is, in the patient suffering from disease of the collective, nearly 2 / 3 cases take place between the villagers without blood reason relation, so the inherent cause of Keshan disease can not play any function still more among them. The death is still going on. Liu Ji opens the story heard " It is horrified to amaze by very much " : During several hours on one's deathbed, nearly 2 / 3 patients demonstrate various unusual symptoms, such as palpitation, dizzy, nausea, epilepsy, tired,etc., some unusual symptoms are even unable to sort out. Because of the investigation of ending up in vain many times before this, the villagers have already been accustomed to to these experts' arrival. Old rumor, still spread among villager. Old villagers will tell the children: From every June to rainy season in August, must not go out when being very late, will be " spirit " otherwise Drag away. However, the death does not only take place at night. Some villagers fall down to the ground suddenly while talking with people in the daytime, the heart stops beating. Capture murderers just when the experts are at a loss what to do, the mysterious " devil " Left the clues at last. In summer of 2005, the local researchers of Yunnan gave once light and his group sent the pathologic slide of a group of heart tissues here. The picture comes from 3 families, at one time, all two people die respectively in these 3 families. All evidences point to a kind of arrhythmic fatal one, there are indications, some kind like medicine or the intersection of material and equilibrium to upset heart of toxin. In order to verify this kind of idea, the electrocardiograms before asking for these the dead from hospital and dying of experts, the electrocardiogram has verified this kind of suspicion. In addition, in the investigation of 2006 and 2007, the experts obtained an enormous discovery. They have found a kind of white small mushroom in several the dead's family. And the family of other several persons who die suddenly admit, the dead have eaten such strange small mushroom before death. In summer of 2008, Liu Ji will make and begin to carry on toxic test to such small white mushroom. At the beginning, this reputable pharmacology family does not believe, small white mushroom will be poisonous. He and his group is fewer than path of half meters along one, enters in the forest in the north of Yunnan. The big tree grows tall and big, the sunshine is almost unable to come in through luxuriant leaf transmission. These small white mushrooms, become that grows on the stump dying forming a cluster, just like small white flowers in full bloom. "Just like very weak and very lovely little girl. " Liu Ji's analogy of beginning. When this small white mushroom is picked from stump, the color will become thin and light gray. Catch " devils " Scientific experiment at this point begin. Liu Ji opens and wears gloves with his group members, soaks this kind of small white mushroom which seem ordinary into alcohol. Such special alcohol is often used in chemistry to extract in the experiment. He calls this course for fun " Steep the wine " ,The villagers of some little villages in Yunnan often make medicated wine of plant of this kind of means too. The ones that pass one to three days " Steep the wine " ,Liu Ji opened and refined from the solvent that is extracted out a kind of complicated extract. This kind of extract is placed in chemical container, is transported to the institute of lab animals of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences located in Beijing. Are some little stalwart white mice selected? If you can't stand tall and upright by flute Cui ��, tease, rise abruptly Sha L �� file last bone and last �� s bright and raise bright to if you can't last �� of Chi of ��, last �� s polished so last �� Wu forever in �� "The money Ma? "I do not think little white mouse can be poisoned to death. " Liu Ji holds and describes one's own half-believing,half-doubting mood at that time. An unexpected one is, within 24 hours, little white mice die successively, no matter how much the dosage that eats is. Before their death, a kind of strange symptom appears. They are quivering constantly like epilepsy, edema, little enterorrhagia are appearing. The fact proves, the small white mushroom is poisonous. And then, Liu Ji opened and purified and separated all extracts. He and his group, utilize a kind of chromatogram technology, removes the interference material in extracts, refine out a poisonous compound. Spectrum technology has come into operation too. Liu Ji is open and break the molecule of this kind of compound with the electronic mass spectrograph, utilizes nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in spectrum technology, strip 3 out Plant " the strange one " Amino acid. This kind of amino acid leaves different from 26 kinds of amino acids that the experts contacted at ordinary times. Generally, most amino acids are formed by protein, their chemical constitution has fixed modes, and play an important role in the metabolism of the human body. However, amino acid drawn out in white mushroom while as a child, all have nothing to do with any kind of protein. One kind amino acid chemical constitution or even " The brand-new one " . "3 kinds are all poisonous. " Liu Ji opens and says. He can already nearly conclude who patronizes Yunnan village every year " The spirit " . Throw out the murderer not all people and agree to this statement. Such as Li GuangHui. He insists, the mountain small stream receives the pollution of the noxious substance or pathogen, cause the main reason to die suddenly syndrome, " whether most cases drink the soil water " . The villagers of this area like drinking the natural water in the mountain, though in experts' view, this kind of water has a whiff of strange taste. Ji Liu open, verify, not every person who die suddenly has eaten such small white mushroom. The researchers of the investigation group notice, heavy metallic element barium seems to play certain function in death. It can initiate the heart rate not normally. 2006, to take place colony two village that die suddenly, draw the blood sample to the dead and relative investigation group. A lot of the intersection of barium and content of person exceed standard, among them one died person reach very high the intersection of content and level. In another colony incident of dying suddenly, in the dead's blood, urine, hair and local water, measure high-load barium element. In addition, some ill or healthy villagers' electrocardiogram data, direct the spearhead at barium element. What merits attention is, barium index of the small white mushroom has exceeded the normal level too. Have only refused the interview of China Youth News reporter. He shows, " can't totally confirm yet now " after hesitating for a long time ,The result will be announced soon. An anonymous expert says, this investigation " bears certain political pressure " . So far, it is unwilling to believe to often pester Li LinMei and some villagers who puts the bamboo basket into, it is small white mushroom that has resulted in dying suddenly. In these small villages of the highland of Yunnan, the wild mushroom is their important source of revenue. To pluck generally among annual July - August, " whether whole people of village go to pick mushrooms nearly " season mushroom . Li LinMei and villagers often set up the simple and easy tent in the field of mushroom, pass and for several nights continuously. There are some intermediate traders, will be carrying sack and steelyard, put the mushroom that the villagers plucked away at low price. And these energetic and juicy mushrooms, will be sold to the hotel by the intermediate trader or exported to foreign countries. It is loose and fine and soft on the Japanese dining table, the fungus of liver of ox in European hotels, the universe mushroom,etc., mostly produced in Yunnan. Only small white mushroom, because without commercial value, have become the poor villager's only mushroom willing to to eat. Have villager can say the name of mushroom precise, though they live, store in a lot of years in village already. No matter how, a movement is launched. Since June of 2009, experts of Center for Disease Prevention and Control of China and local researcher of Yunnan, get deeply to these small villages stopped up. They issue some health brochures to villagers, is printing the photo of such small white mushroom above, and hit the bright red fork fork. Valley tweeter of field begin, broadcast, advise villager eat again like this little pale mushroom incessantly. It seems that the devil is thrown out temporarily. Liu Ji opened and told China Youth News reporter, after propagating this kind, rainy season of 2010 begins, the colony cases of dying suddenly of these villages will " scarcely recur " .
