Famine Escape: Husband, Here's a Ginseng

Gao Zhijun, an all-powerful gold-medal female assassin from the 22nd century, transmigrated one day to become a thirteen-year-old farm girl.

During a year of famine, she fled with her family....

Chapter 81: Curing Plague

"I told you I can cure the plague. If you follow my instructions, Dabao will be well soon. If you don't, you'll be waiting for your body to be collected. In two days, it will be too late to save him, even a god can't bring him back."

Gao Zhijun was not exaggerating. She said that when organs failed, there was a shortage of medical equipment in ancient times and it was impossible to save people.

"We listen to the girl and do whatever she tells us to do."

The Yang family members made the promise in unison.

If it is really a plague, we can only try our best to save it.

Gao Zhijun breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that they were willing to cooperate.

She is most afraid of unreasonable patients' family members. She can't hit them, scold them, or listen to them. She feels really helpless.

He took out a small bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, and gave it to Dabao's mother, asking her to give it to Dabao.

After taking the medicine, everyone kept quiet and waited for the medicine to take effect.

A quarter of an hour later, Dabao's fever subsided, his breathing became smoother, and his other symptoms were also relieved.

"The fever has gone down. Miss, you are truly a miracle worker, a reincarnated Hua Tuo."

Yang Laosan said gratefully.

"Thank you so much, thank you for saving Dabao. You are our great benefactor. Please accept my greeting."

When Dabao's father saw that Dabao's fever had subsided and he looked much better, he knelt down and kowtowed to Gao Zhijun in gratitude.

"The plague really can be cured. You are truly a miracle doctor. Miracle doctor, please accept our greetings."

After Dabao's mother finished speaking, the Yang family members kowtowed to Gao Zhijun one after another.

"Okay, everyone, get up quickly, I can't stand you guys doing this.

As a doctor, curing illnesses and saving lives is your duty. You don't have to do this.

Dabao’s plague has not yet fully healed, it’s just under control and he needs to take medicine for two more days to fully recover.

You have been in close contact with Dabao, and you may have been infected with the plague, but it hasn't yet broken out. I hope you won't go out and interact with the villagers, so as not to spread the plague to more villagers."

Gao Zhijun called the Yang family to get up and told them not to go out and infect the villagers.

"Don't worry, my girl. Our family will not go out. We will all be isolated at home and will not cause any trouble for you."

The Yang family regarded Gao Zhijun as their benefactor and a miracle doctor, and would obey her words unconditionally.

"Okay, take this bottle of medicine. Give Dabao three pills a day, divided into three doses, two hours apart. Take one pill each time.

For the rest, you can take one pill every day to prevent it."

Gao Zhijun handed a small bottle of twenty pills to Yang Laosan, asking him to give the pills to Dabao on time and give the rest to them for prevention.

"Thank you, young lady. We will keep it in mind."

The Yang family assured.

"Sir, let's go!"

Gao Zhijun said to County Magistrate Leng.

The three of them said goodbye to the Yang family, got on County Magistrate Leng's carriage, and went to Renshou Hall.

When Manager Hua of Renshou Hall saw the county magistrate, he hurried out to greet him.

County Magistrate Leng introduced Gao Zhijun. Gao Zhijun explained the reason for coming here and asked Manager Hua for pen, ink, paper and inkstone. She wrote down the prescription for the plague and also wrote down the prescription for the plague.

Instruct Manager Hua to prepare the herbs on the prescription and start administering the medicine tomorrow.

Then she asked him to prepare mugwort and send it to the yamen, as she wanted to use it to make masks.

What we need most now are herbs and masks. The herbs can be bought from pharmacies, and the masks have to be made by embroiderers.

After giving instructions to the shopkeeper Hua and packing up the mugwort in Renshou Hall, Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian got on a carriage and went to the yamen with County Magistrate Leng.

During this period, she and Huo Jinqian had to stay in the yamen. They had close contact with plague patients, which was the most dangerous situation, and they needed to be isolated from their families.

County Magistrate Leng arranged Gao Zhijun and Huo Jinqian to live in Tianxue Pavilion in the backyard, and he himself moved to a secluded courtyard.

Gao Zhijun wrote down the preventive measures for the plague and asked people to follow them tomorrow.

I was busy until midnight before I finished writing.

I stretched, twisted my waist, did some gymnastics, and then went to bed.

A night of silence.

Gao Zhijun's biological clock is very punctual and she gets up early.

At this time, Huo Jinqian also got up and came to Gao Zhijun's door. Just as he was about to knock on the door, Gao Zhijun opened the door from the inside. Huo Jinqian stretched out his hands in the air in embarrassment.

"Good morning! What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

Looking at the embarrassed Huo Jinqian, Gao Zhijun broke the awkwardness and said.

Huo Jinqian cleared his throat, put his hand back, and said, "I wanted to wake you up for breakfast. Breakfast is ready."

"Okay, let's go. I'm hungry too."

After Gao Zhijun finished speaking, she took the lead and went to the cafeteria. This was the exclusive cafeteria for her, Huo Jinqian, and County Magistrate Leng.

After meeting County Magistrate Leng, he handed him the preventive measures he had written last night and gave him a brief introduction. Then the three of them started to eat breakfast.

The doctors that County Magistrate Leng arranged for Gao Zhijun were Doctor Yuan from Renshoutang and Doctor Tong from Baicaotang. Both of them had the best medical skills in Qingyang County.

Just after breakfast, Doctor Yuan and Doctor Tong came to the yamen, waiting for Gao Zhijun.

Yesterday, their shopkeeper told them that today they should obey Miss Gao's orders because she could cure the plague.

Doctors Yuan and Tong were shocked when they read the prescription written by Gao Zhijun.

After decades of practicing medicine, they never knew which herbs could be used to treat the plague. It was because they were ignorant and their skills were not well-trained.

After breakfast, Gao Zhijun took Huo Jinqian, two doctors, and a dozen yamen runners to check villages and towns, isolating the patients diagnosed with plague and their family members who had been in contact with them.
