When they descended the mountain, Su Jin changed into very ordinary clothes. Everyone was wearing face shields for epidemic prevention, so no one could recognize anyone else. They successfully slipped away from the noses of the Liuli Society disciples.
Everyone headed straight for the Prince of Linan's residence.
The southeast corner of the Prince's Mansion was spacious, so the free clinic was set up in a temporary shed outside the mansion.
Refugees lined up in long queues, children wailed in pain, adults pleaded for their children to be seen first, seriously ill patients lay prostrate on the ground, unable to stand, and there were also shrewish people causing trouble, creating a commotion.
It was midday, the sun was blazing, and the refugees, already suffering from illness, were completely emotionally distraught, constantly urging each other to hurry up!
If it weren't for the protection of the soldiers, there would probably have been a riot long ago.
At the front of the line were simple sheds, two of which were for consultations and two for dispensing medicine. The medicine was prepared inside the courtyard.
There are also free soup kitchens not far away.
Su Jin followed the crowd to the front and immediately noticed Lu Ming's smooth, dark hair.
He sought medical attention anonymously, without revealing his identity, and was dressed in extremely simple coarse cloth clothing and wore a mask.
Su Jin squeezed her way to Lu Ming and saw that he was covered in sweat, his skin was frighteningly pale, and his eyes were terribly red. She quickly said, "Let me help you!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ming looked up and instantly snapped, "Nonsense! What are you doing here?"
"I'll help."
Lu Ming leaned closer to Su Jin and said in a low voice with concern, "This epidemic is very contagious, you should go back quickly."
Su Jin sat down directly next to Lu Ming. "Isn't there medicine? If you're not afraid, I'm not afraid either!"
"These are two different things. Even if you take the medicine, it will still cause damage to your body." Lu Ming's voice became extremely stern.
Su Jin stared blankly at Lu Ming for a long while before sighing, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said softly, "My health is much better than yours, so take care of yourself."
The deer's cry...
"Are you still going to watch or not?" the waiting person shouted impatiently.
Lu Ming quickly helped the patient sit down.
Su Jin looked at it for a while and said, "Teach me, how do you take this pulse?"
Su Jin looked at Lu Ming with her big, inquisitive eyes. Lu Ming sighed and briefly explained the characteristics and pulse of this fever syndrome to her.
Su Jinxia had read some medical books at the pharmacy during this time and had gained some understanding. After hearing Lu Ming's explanation, Su Jinxia was eager to try and asked the second patient in line to come up.
Su Jin placed three fingers on the patient's pulse and carefully felt it.
Some time ago, Su Jinxia had already taken the antidote for the third time. Her perception had become extremely strong, and her sea of consciousness had more than doubled in size. The sharpness of all her senses was extraordinary.
The faint pulse, when listened to carefully by Su Jin, was as clear as the beating of a vibrant life.
“It’s a pulse, but I don’t think it’s an epidemic,” Su Jin said.
A rapid pulse indicates a fever syndrome, which is an important manifestation of this epidemic. However, there are many types of fever syndromes, which need to be carefully distinguished.
Lu Ming took the patient's hand, took his pulse again, and was surprised to find that it was indeed not an epidemic.
Lu Ming looked at the patient's face and tongue coating again and said, "You have heatstroke. I will prescribe a medicine to relieve the heat. Go and get the medicine yourself and drink two doses. Then leave here quickly and go home to rest well."
The patient nodded hurriedly, took the prescription, and left quickly.
Lu Ming turned around, somewhat puzzled and surprised. Taking a pulse is difficult and cannot be done overnight, yet Su Jinxia made an accurate judgment so easily.
Was it talent? Or coincidence?
Lu Ming raised his head and gestured, "You take my number."
Su Jin smiled and continued seeing patients.
Su Jin's answers weren't always right, and sometimes she would have doubts, but those doubts were about things that Lu Ming hadn't told her.
Her perception and description of the pulse were extremely precise and detailed; Lu Ming could almost determine the patient's condition from her description of the pulse.
When Lu Ming took the patient's pulse a second time, he found that it was exactly the same as what Su Jin had said.
As if he had discovered a treasure, Lu Ming began to explain the relevant knowledge to Su Jin earnestly and patiently.
After a day, Su Jinxia was already able to make her own judgments about the epidemic.
Shen Qianxue only heard in the evening that Su Jin had gone down the mountain and even went to the free clinic tent, so she rushed over worriedly.
But then, Su Jinxia was seen chatting and laughing with Lu Ming.
With Su Jin's help, Lu Ming was much more relaxed and his consultations were much faster, much to the annoyance of the doctor next door who sighed repeatedly.
After seeing off another patient, Su Jin raised a smug eyebrow and said, "I'm amazing, aren't I?"
Lu Ming couldn't stand Su Jin's arrogance, and he abandoned his usual gentle and refined demeanor, saying haughtily, "That's because I taught her well."
Su Jin chuckled, "Yes, yes, I got a great deal!"
"That's right, the Lu family's medical skills have never been taught to outsiders."
Su Jin immediately seized the opportunity and replied with a smile, "As long as you are willing, when we return to Phoenix Pavilion, I will definitely offer you wine and kneel down to acknowledge you as my master."
Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised that Su Jin had such a thoughtful intention, but...
"My Lu family doesn't just accept anyone."
Su Jin immediately held up three fingers to assure him, "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to teach me medical skills, I will definitely not disgrace my sect."
Lu Ming looked deeply at Su Jinxia and felt more and more that she was extraordinary.
Not far away, Shen Qianxue, who was hiding in the corner of the wall, unconsciously tensed up, her fists gradually clenched, and she secretly ground her teeth.
It turns out that she's just as happy and charming when she's with other people!
Shen Qianxue ultimately did not show up and returned to her room somewhat dejectedly, only to regret it later.
