Chapter 406: It Can Kill People

“Junyang!”

Shi Qingxue screamed and rushed over. Before Mo Junyang fell on the ground, she held him in her arms.

At the moment, she felt heartbroken and her legs weakened. She fell and sat on the ground with the posture of hugging Mo Junyang.

She called Mo Junyang’s name repeatedly. But when they saw him, Mo Junyang closed his eyes and fell into a coma.

Wei Zichao drew the long sword and put it on Xiao Qijun again, asking harshly, “What did you do to my master?”

The other members in the stockaded village present saw that their chief was under threat with a sword, so they aimed at Wei Zichao with their weapons in unison and surrounded them. “Let go of our chief.”

For a moment, it was at daggers drawn, and a war would break out at any time.

Xiao Qijun looked surprised and stared at Mo Junyang in a coma, unable to react. He murmured, “Why did it happen? Why…”

Wei Zichao goggled. “I want to ask you.”

Xiao Qijun said in a hurry, “I saw that he was safe and sound when he fell to the cliff, and you have seen that he sat here in good health. Why did it…attack suddenly?”

He seemed to think of a possibility and turned pale at once. Then he shouted at the members in a hoarse voice, “Go and ask Doctor Liang to come!”

All the members looked at one another. Then somebody put down the big knife in his hand and said in a weak voice, “Yes.”

Then he left in a hurry to look for the doctor.

Doctor Liang rushed over in haste with a medical kit on his back. He didn’t need anybody to tell him who the patient was but found him. He opened the medical kit and squatted on the ground, checking Mo Junyang’s pulse.

He checked Mo Junyang’s wrist for a moment and then opened the patient’s eyes and mouth, examining carefully.

“Doctor, how is he?” Shi Qingxue couldn’t help asking.

When they were waiting for the doctor, she consciously checked Mo Junyang’s body, and there was no ordinary traumatic injury, not to mention a serious injury which could cause his coma.

It was not an injury on the surface, but Shi Qingxue didn’t feel happy, as she feared that Mo Junyang had an internal injury after being beaten when she didn’t know.

However, Doctor Liang’s reaction was worse than Shi Qingxue’s most pessimistic conjecture. He turned ghastly pale all of a sudden and looked scared.

Doctor Liang even moved a big step backward and covered his mouth and nose. The unclear voice came between his fingers.

“It’s the epidemic.”

“What?”

Doctor Liang’s words exploded in all people’s ears immediately. All of them moved a few steps backward like he did, afraid of being infected if they stood there for longer.

All people in Jiangzhou City turned pale with fear at the mention of the epidemic. Even the expression of Xiao Qijun who was bold changed after he heard this word, with alertness in his eyes.

Shi Qingxue hugged Mo Junyang and didn’t loosen her hands but frowned, glaring at Doctor Liang. “What did you say?”

Didn’t Mo Junyang risk his life to go to Shang Village just to investigate the epidemic which disappeared for no reason?

However, since the epidemic had disappeared, why did it come again?

Shi Qingxue didn’t believe it, but Doctor Liang said with certainty, “I have treated many patients suffering from the epidemic. All of them were in a coma or had a fever in the beginning, and his other symptoms are the same as those patients’. If you still don’t believe it, I have nothing to say.”

“Cut the crap. You are a doctor. Why don’t you make a prescription and save him?” Shi Qingxue had no time to listen to Doctor Liang telling them about the symptoms of the epidemic and how it developed. She just got exasperated and demanded him to cure Mo Junyang.

However, Doctor Liang lowered his head at the moment and replied hesitantly, “We haven’t found the solution to cure this epidemic. Although I can make a diagnosis, I am afraid that I can’t cure it and save him…”

Doctor Liang beat around the bush and wanted to show three points. Firstly, he couldn’t save Mo Junyang. Secondly, nobody could save him. Thirdly, he would wait for death.

Shi Qingxue laughed coldly as she was furious because of Doctor Liang’s hidden meaning. She told Wei Zichao to carry Mo Junyang out and disdained to say more to these people.

This doctor was not skilled, and she would find the other doctors. If all the doctors in Jiangzhou City were incapable, she would go back to the imperial palace to find the imperial doctors and Shen Luo…

Anyway, she would have Mo Junyang cured.

Shi Qingxue was decisive and told Wei Zichao to carry Mo Junyang back to Jiangzhou City and ask the old doctor to treat the patient.

After hearing that it was the epidemic, the old doctor refused to treat Mo Junyang in the beginning. Wei Ziye put a knife on the doctor’s neck, and the latter finally agreed.

When the old doctor treated the patient, he covered himself all over and only a pair of murky eyes was revealed. He didn’t forget to protect them with a gauze.

When he walked to the sickbed, he stopped repeatedly, as if a beast were lying on the bed and he would court death.

Shi Qingxue got impatient because of the old doctor’s actions and dragged him to the bed. “Just treat the patient now. We are not sure if it is the epidemic.”

The old doctor had to grab Mo Junyang’s wrist and check his pulse, but as he checked for longer, the expression in his eyes got worse. In the end, he almost jumped and left the bed, pointing to it while trembling. “It’s really…the epidemic.”

After he shouted, he said anxiously as Shi Qingxue and the others didn’t move a bit, “That is the epidemic which can cause people’s death in secret. Why are you standing there blankly? Why don’t you stay away from him?”

However, Shi Qingxue just frowned and glared at him. “Cut the crap. Since you have made a diagnosis, hurry up and make a prescription to save him.”

It was not the time to talk about anything else.

The old doctor hadn’t expected that these people would be not afraid of death as none of them avoided it after hearing that it was the epidemic.

However, he didn’t want to die.

The old doctor wanted to cry but shed no tear, explaining, “Nobody in Jiangzhou City can develop the medicine to cure the epidemic till now. After the common people get infected, they have to stay at home and await death. Perhaps the people from wealthy families can keep alive for several days with the precious medicinal materials, yet in fact, it is in vain…”

Seeing that Shi Qingxue’s face looked terrible, the old doctor didn’t dare to continue.

Shi Qingxue stared at the old doctor and stressed each word again. “Anyway, I ask you one question. Can you make a prescription?”

“I…” The old doctor tried to shake his head, but seeing the bright and sharp sword in Wei Ziye’s hand, he turned his head back at once and said in a low voice, “I do have a prescription, yet I have never tried it and don’t know if it can work.”

In fact, the old doctor wanted to say that his prescription could only keep the patient alive for some more days at most, and he couldn’t cure it.

However, all these people looked ferocious, and he didn’t dare to say that. He was afraid that he would lose his life after saying it.

“Since there is a prescription, Dong Shuang, hurry up and follow the old doctor to buy medicinal herbs and decoct them. Remember to do everything by yourself, and you can’t tell others to do it. Have you heard it?” Shi Qingxue ordered in a hurry.

Dong Shuang said yes and didn’t give the old doctor a chance to protest but pulled him away.

Wei Zichao asked worriedly, “My Lady, this doctor looks unskilled. I don’t know if his medical skills are good enough. I am worried that…”

Shi Qingxue raised her hand and interrupted him. “I know, yet we can do nothing but trust him now.

“Zichao, you urge the fast horse and go back to the capital to ask Shen Luo to come. We will try to delay and wait till you bring Shen Luo, so you must be quick. Understand?”

Wei Zichao finally knew that Shi Qingxue had a second string to her bow. He nodded at once. “I am going now. I won’t let you down.”

Shi Qingxue looked at Wei Zichao’s receding figure and didn’t feel relieved.

Among them, Wei Zichao was best at flying skills. It would take more than ten days to go back to the capital, and he could spend less time and might reach there in five or six days. It would probably cost him twelve or thirteen days at least to go and come back.

According to the epidemic’s developing process, the patients couldn’t sustain themselves for half a month at most from the symptom’s appearance to their death, and most of them would die in less than ten days.

Time was limited, and Shi Qingxue just hoped that Wei Zichao could come back more quickly and that the old doctor’s prescription would be more effective. She could do nothing except that.

After one hour, Dong Shuang brought the medicine bowl into the room. Seeing that Shi Qingxue sat still on the bedside, she was anxious and walked forward.

She held the medicine bowl with one hand and tried to pull Shi Qingxue out with the other. “My Lady, I will serve His Excellency here. I will surely take care of him wholeheartedly. Please don’t worry. You are weak and should stay away from him. If there is something wrong with you, how should I explain to your parents?”

Shi Qingxue avoided Dong Shuang’s hand and conveniently received the medicine bowl from her. She sat on the bedside and refused to go, saying coldly, “I won’t leave. I will stay here to look after him.”

“But if…”

Dong Shuang still wanted to advise her, while Qingxue interrupted her. “If I am unlucky and infected, it’s God’s will. I was lucky to turn into nothingness with him in the previous life, and it will be nice if I can do so in this life.”

In the previous life, after Shi Qingxue died, she turned into a ghost and followed Mo Junyang all the time. Till he died of an illness, she disappeared between heaven and earth.

When she thought of it, it must be the most romantic thing between her and Mo Junyang.

She was lucky to be reborn in this life, and it seemed that she was reborn for Mo Junyang in order to prevent that man from being lonely.

She couldn’t remember her deep hatred toward Mo Junhao now. She thought of nothing but Mo Junyang and just wanted him to be safe and sound.

Qingxue’s voice was forceful, with resolution that anybody couldn’t shake, confusing Dong Shuang. She forgot to ask the young lady what the previous life meant.

Dong Shuang just looked at Shi Qingxue blankly, who helped Mo Junyang sit up and then fed him medicine.

After Shi Qingxue fed him almost all the medicine in the bowl, Dong Shuang finally remembered that it was her job to feed him medicine.

Dong Shuang was in a great flurry and wanted to grab the medicine bowl. “My Lady, let me do it.”

However, Shi Qingxue refused and just said, “I will feed him medicine in the future. You just need to decoct the medicinal herbs. Don’t enter this room if there is nothing.”

“My Lady!” Dong Shuang opened her eyes wide in astonishment.

Would Shi Qingxue abandon her?

Dong Shuang felt a bolt from the blue and looked at Shi Qingxue, with nothing to desire for. She thought that her career as a maid came to an end.
