"How can the government do this? Aren't they treating the lives of ordinary people like a joke?!"

When Dr. Ma heard the news Lu Qiqi brought back, he became so angry that he spoke without restraint.

"Dr. Ma, be careful what you say!" Dr. Huang urged anxiously.

After being reminded by Dr. Huang, Dr. Ma's expression changed several times, but his anger remained.

After hearing this, Doctor Qin circled the main room several times, muttering something under his breath.

The other younger doctors were even more at a loss, looking around and exchanging glances, unable to come up with any useful ideas.

After pondering for a moment, Dr. Huang said, "There's no use in us being anxious. Now we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate."

The government gave too little time, and the plague raged for several months.

Now they are only given half a month to cure the plague in Tianxin Village.

This is simply a fantasy!

That's wishful thinking!

It's simply impossible!

"Actually, there is a way."

Lu Qiqi spoke calmly, attracting the attention of the doctors, who all focused their gaze on her.

"What can be done?"

Lu Qiqi and Doctor Luo exchanged a glance and then said, "Let's test the medicine on humans."

Human trials were a common practice in treating plagues; if Lu Qiqi could think of it, other doctors could too.

“What kind of good method is this?” a young doctor said. “Didn’t we start by testing the medicine on people? How would we know if the prescription would work if we didn’t test it?”

After listening to the young doctor's words, Lu Qiqi gave him a deep look.

The young doctor felt a chill run down his spine and finally looked away.

Doctor Huang said, "Miss Lu must have some good prescription to say that."

The previous treatment method was first proposed by Lu Qiqi.

The prescription she devised had a noticeable effect on the villagers.

When she was in Yi'an Village, she cured the epidemic in just a few days.

Perhaps Lu Qiqi really can cure the epidemic in Tianxin Village within half a month.

Dr. Huang had somehow become a big fan of Lu Qiqi, feeling that as long as Lu Qiqi was around, no difficult or complicated disease could be solved.

It's only a matter of time before he recovers.

"The villagers' illnesses have reached a critical stage. Medication can only provide general guidance; some details still need to be explored. However, there is one person for whom we can conduct further observation and treatment."

Everyone knew perfectly well who Lu Qiqi was referring to.

Since Dr. Wu and Dr. Qin were on good terms, Dr. Wu's prescriptions for treatment were naturally written by Dr. Qin.

Now that the two teams of doctors have put aside their differences, Dr. Wu is the most suitable surgeon.

Lu Qiqi added, "Besides me and Doctor Luo, we need two more people to help."

If we follow Lu Qiqi to cure Doctor Wu, our reputation for healing the sick and curing diseases will be secure.

If a doctor truly doesn't seek fame or fortune and only cares about his patients, he'd be starving!

Therefore, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of all the doctors, who wished they could write "Choose me" on their foreheads.

"I would like to trouble Dr. Huang and Dr. Qin to lend a helping hand."

Doctor Huang nodded in agreement, while Doctor Qin was somewhat surprised, since he had previously regarded Lu Qiqi's prescription as worthless.

Lu Qiqi's choice to choose him despite past grievances, instead of choosing Doctor Ma who was on his side, demonstrates her noble character.

This made Dr. Qin think more highly of her.

The four of them arrived at Doctor Wu's courtyard, and the sound of the door being pushed open startled Doctor Wu.

If it weren't for the fact that they were four acquaintances, everyone would have thought that bandits had come to rob them.

Overjoyed, Dr. Qin slammed open Dr. Wu's door and strode over to him with lightning speed.

He said, "Brother Wu, you're saved. We can both leave the village alive."

Dr. Qin's facial expressions are exaggerated; when he laughs, the wrinkles resemble deep ravines, depicting the marks of time.

Doctor Wu thought he was overly nervous and might have gone mad, so he cautiously asked, "Brother Qin, do you understand what you're saying?"

Dr. Qin thought Dr. Wu hadn't heard him clearly and wanted to repeat himself, but Lu Qiqi interrupted him.

She even felt that if she didn't interrupt their conversation, the two of them could chat for half a day.

"Dr. Wu, we have come here to test the medicine on your condition, but we need your consent for this."

Dr. Wu was taken aback at first. Wasn't the drug trial already a tacit agreement?

He then immediately realized what he was doing and said, "It is my honor to be able to do my part."

Dr. Wu's understanding and reasonableness saved Lu Qiqi a lot of trouble.

The reason she didn't inform Doctor Wu about the government's deadline immediately was to avoid forcing him into a situation where he had to agree.

Since Dr. Wu's body and skin belong to him, Lu Qiqi cannot guarantee against the side effects caused by drug trials.

"In that case, time waits for no one, so let's begin today."

After saying that, Lu Qiqi stepped forward to take Dr. Wu's pulse, while Dr. Luo and Dr. Qin went outside, and Dr. Huang took paper and pen and made notes.

After all four doctors finished their diagnoses, Dr. Huang took out four medical records.

Of the four, Lu Qiqi and Doctor Luo's diagnoses were largely the same, Doctor Huang's were slightly different but generally consistent with Lu Qiqi's, only Doctor Qin's diagnosis was completely different.

The four passed the medical records around. After comparing the diagnoses of the other three doctors with his own, Dr. Qin said with a embarrassed expression, "It is because my skills are not good enough that I have made you all laugh."

The three men turned their gazes toward Doctor Qin, who felt so close to them that he wished he could disappear into a crack in the rock.

Just then, Lu Qiqi came to his rescue, saying, "Now it's a drug trial, which means there are multiple different diagnoses to cure the disease. If they were all the same diagnosis, there would be no drug trial."

Lu Qiqi's words reassured Doctor Qin, who immediately straightened his back, feeling that he was also an important member.

Dr. Luo drafted a prescription, which Dr. Huang reviewed and found to be without fault, making no changes whatsoever.

Doctor Qin also drafted a prescription, but he didn't know why Lu Qiqi asked him to draft one separately, since it seemed unlikely that his prescription would be used now.

But since Lu Qiqi said so, he did as she said.

Lu Qiqi first looked at Doctor Qin's prescription, and then took Doctor Luo's prescription before adding the two medicinal herbs from Doctor Qin's prescription to it.

After examining the prescription, Dr. Luo remained silent. Dr. Huang asked curiously, "Aren't two of the ingredients in these two herbs overlapping with two of the herbs in Dr. Luo's original prescription?"

Lu Qiqi said, "Even if they overlap, the subtle effects are still different. Since it is a trial, the emphasis is still on the word 'trial'."

After hearing this, Dr. Huang seemed to have suddenly realized his mistake and no longer had any questions or opinions.

Dr. Qin's approach to diagnosis differed from that of the three of them, and he certainly wouldn't offer any opinions.

The trial phase has only just begun, and he only hopes to cure Dr. Wu as soon as possible.
