Chapter 385 This little apprentice was not accepted in vain
When Chu Huaixu heard this, he immediately turned around and looked over, "Why did you think of her?"
Zhai Heming did not dare to hesitate at all and quickly said what he was thinking.
Chu Huaixu listened attentively and nodded at the end. "Your suspicion is quite reasonable... Huo Qingchen, go tell the soldiers on the city wall and have them tell Marshal Wen and the others about this suspicion."
"yes!"
At the same time, Yu Youning and Chu Huaishan had already seen people who had contracted the plague.
All those who contracted the plague were concentrated in several large courtyards.
Because there were so many people infected with the plague, there were at least two people placed in almost every room.
Outside the yard, you can smell the strong smell of burning mugwort.
This is to disperse the disease and prevent more people from being infected.
Although it may not be useful, it can at least give some people some peace of mind.
After entering these houses, the smell of mugwort became lighter.
But the smell of various medicines is stronger than that of mugwort.
The air was filled not only with the strong smell of Chinese medicine, but also with a rancid smell, like the smell of rotten meat.
Just by smelling this scent, Yu Youning's expression became much more serious.
Yu Youning stopped and took out a small porcelain bottle from her pouch. She poured out a few pills. "Dad, Mom, Uncle, if you take these pills, they will improve your physical fitness to a certain extent and prevent you from being infected with the plague."
When Yu Tingwan and Wen Shiyan heard this, they picked up a pill and put it in their mouths without any hesitation.
Wen Beiyao, on the other hand, looked at the pill but did not take any action.
Wen Shiyan and Wen Beiyao are brothers, so they can naturally see what Wen Beiyao is thinking at this time.
"Brother, you are the marshal. There must be many people infected with the plague among the soldiers in the city right now. It is a time of chaos. Only if you are well can you deal with these things.
"You can save a civilian by saving this pill, but what then? If you really fall ill, who will take care of all the things? Saving one person or making yourself able to save more people? How do you choose between the two? I don't need to teach you, right?"
Such a simple truth certainly doesn’t need Wen Shiyan to teach it.
Wen Beiyao no longer cared and threw the pill into his mouth.
The pill melted in my mouth and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Wen Beiyao gave a helpless smile, "I always thought I was a clear-headed person who knew what to do and when.
Now it seems that I am not as clear-headed as you. If you were to be the marshal——"
"If I did it, I certainly wouldn't do it as well as you!" Wen Shiyan said with a smile, "Brother, you're not unconscious. You just want to rescue every citizen in need whenever possible. This is not your fault.
Of course, this was not Youning's fault. Youning only had some common medicines on him, and the quantity was not large. It was to deal with various emergencies. The quantity was not enough to immediately rescue the people in the entire city.
But I can tell you with certainty that it won’t be long before every healthy citizen in the city can take this anti-epidemic pill.”
Wen Shiyan spoke seriously, and Wen Beiyao also believed in Yu Youning's ability.
He nodded vigorously, "I will also do my part to maintain peace in the city!"
While the two of them were talking, Yu Youning, Chu Huaishan, and even Yu Tingwan had already walked into a room.
There were two patients infected with the plague in the room, both lying in bed.
The doors and windows in the room were closed. The moment I opened the door, a strong stench of decay hit me in the face.
If they hadn't been prepared, Yu Youning and the other two would have been suffocated by the smoke.
"Mom, open the window for ventilation."
Yu Youning said this, and he and Chu Huaishan walked towards the two patients respectively.
Yu Tingwan immediately opened the window.
As the doors and windows were opened, fresh air rushed in and the foul smell was blown away a little, and it was not as strong as before.
At the same time, the sunlight outside also poured in, allowing Yu Youning to see the situation inside the house clearly.
The patient on the bed was not wearing any outer clothes, but was covered with a thin sheet.
When the bed sheet was lifted, one could clearly see that the man's body was covered with wounds the size of copper coins.
It looked like hot copper coins were used to imprint on it one by one, leaving burn marks.
But in fact, this is not a burn, but the body is decaying after being infected with the plague.
When the whole body is covered with such scars, the whole person will fester.
By then, it will be too late to save the situation.
The person in front of Yu Youning was at least not as serious as this.
Although it has grown a lot, you can still see a lot of intact skin.
Although the wound began to rot, it did not completely rot.
Judging from his current situation, he should be in the middle stage.
Yu Youning checked carefully, not daring to miss even the slightest detail.
A quarter of an hour later, Yu Youning and Chu Huaishan stood together, and they communicated their respective findings and talked about their respective diagnosis and treatment opinions.
It didn't take long for the two of them to decide on a treatment plan.
The two of them also discussed together and wrote down a prescription.
In addition to taking medicine, seriously ill patients also need to be given acupuncture.
The written prescription was handed to Yu Tingwan, who immediately copied it down many times. After keeping one copy, he took the other prescriptions and walked out, with Wen Shiyan following beside him.
The two of them are going to get medicine now.
Yu Tingwan was going to the pharmacy on Penglai Island to get medicine.
Wen Shiyan took people and money to other pharmacies to buy medicine.
At the same time, the prescription must be given to Chu Huaixu and others outside the city, asking them to ride as fast as possible to buy medicinal materials from other cities and send them over.
The war horses that were brought from Xiliang before came in handy at this time.
War horses are strong and run faster, making them perfect for transporting medicinal herbs.
Wen Beiyao didn't say a word and didn't do anything, but all the tasks had already been assigned.
This made Wen Beiyao think again.
If Wen Shiyan had joined the army and become a marshal—
Wen Beiyao shook his head and drove the thought out of his mind.
At a time like this, I really shouldn’t be thinking about these things!
"Youning, Mr. Chu, what can I do?" Wen Beiyao asked.
Chu Huaishan looked at Wen Beiyao, "You... must be responsible for maintaining stability in the city. At the same time, you must thoroughly investigate where and how the plague started.
If there had not been a natural disaster, even if someone in the city was unhygienic or ate something unclean, it would not have turned out like this, and it would not have been possible for the disease to spread so quickly and over such a wide area.
This plague must have been caused intentionally by someone. If possible, find the person! "
When it comes to medical skills, Wen Beiyao really knows nothing about it.
But he understood everything else Chu Huaishan said as soon as he heard it, and felt that what Chu Huaishan said was right.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chu. I will definitely investigate carefully and find out where this plague came from. I will also catch the person who deliberately spread the plague!"
After Wen Beiyao said this, he left angrily.
Looking at Wen Beiyao's angry back, Chu Huaishan sighed.
"Master, what's wrong?" Yu Tingwan looked at Chu Huaishan curiously.
Chu Huaishan sighed again, "This matter...I'm afraid it's difficult to investigate."
"Why?" Yu Youning was puzzled.
Wen Beiyao is still very capable, he should be able to find it out!
On this point, she still believes in her uncle's ability!
Chu Huaishan's expression was a little conflicted, but in the end, he chose to tell the truth.
"Because this plague is related to Princess Anguo. But she is already dead."
Yu Tingwan frowned subconsciously, but soon figured it out, "Master, although Princess Anguo is dead, Tuoba Ruoli is still alive!"
As he spoke, Yu Tingwan directly called out Teng Snake.
Qiongqi must be following Tuoba Ruoli.
If Qiongqi was in the city, Tengshe would definitely be able to find Tuoba Ruoli and Qiongqi based on the smell.
But soon, Yu Youning was disappointed.
Tengshe meant that Qiongqi had appeared in the city before.
But now, the taste of Qiongqi has become very weak.
In other words, Qiongqi has been gone for a long time.
Yu Youning was not sure how long Qiongqi had been away, but she was certain that this was definitely the work of Tuoba Ruoli.
After Tuoba Ruoli did this, he took Qiongqi away.
As for where it is now, it is hard to say.
"Can you find it?" Yu Youning asked Tengshe.
Tengshe hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head.
Yu Youning was not too disappointed.
She hadn't placed all her hopes on Tengshe.
Even if Tengshe can't help, she will definitely be able to find Tuoba Ruoli!
But now, we still have to solve the plague in the city first!
An hour later, Yu Tingwan came back with a batch of medicinal herbs.
The medicinal materials were packed in bags and immediately handed over to people to boil the medicine.
The prepared medicine was given to all the patients. Yu Youning and Chu Huaishan also went around in several courtyards, giving acupuncture to those whose conditions were serious.
Even Yu Youning and Chu Huaishan were exhausted after working so hard until dark.
Yu Tingwan saw it all and was worried.
But she couldn't stop him, so she could only go to the kitchen herself and make a lot of delicious food for Yu Youning.
Yu Youning finished giving acupuncture to the last patient and it was already late at night.
But after washing up, she still ate all the food that Yu Tingwan made.
The little face, which was originally a little pale, gradually became rosy.
Chu Huaishan watched from the side, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
"It's good to be young! Just eat something and you'll be back to normal!"
Chu Huaishan's face looked very tired.
He was too tired and had no appetite, so he just drank his soup slowly.
Yu Youning looked at Chu Huaishan and said, "Master, you should have a good rest tonight. You don't have to get up early tomorrow. I'm here for you! I'm young and strong and I'm not afraid of getting tired. Leave everything to me, don't worry!"
Chu Huaishan was deeply moved when he heard this.
It was really worth it to take this little disciple in and love him so much!
However, it is absolutely impossible to leave everything to the apprentice and then just lie back and take a nap!
