No, that's not right. Compared with Xi Jinyun, this person's face seems too flat and has some Han Chinese facial features.
If we look closely, he should be the descendant of Xijinyun people and Han people.
In border areas, it is not uncommon for people from both countries to intermarry. Shilin County is relatively far away from the border, so there are not many such people, but there are some, too. If you look closely, there is nothing special about them.
Since Magistrate Sun said this person is special, then let's treat him first.
"Carry him over here first." Doctor Li raised his hand.
The bailiff carried the man to Doctor Li as instructed.
The man was quite ill and was in a coma. His clothes were disheveled, his face was dirty, and there was even vomit on his body.
Just by looking at his ragged clothes, Doctor Li felt that he was most likely someone who had fled here due to the war.
There are many such people nowadays, and it is not special. However, the dirt on his face at this time really affects the judgment of his condition, so Doctor Li asked the person next to him to wipe his face, which also served as a disinfection.
Seeing everyone busy, Lu Wenjing took the bucket and medicine powder over.
Seeing the man's face being wiped clean and his hair being put back, Lu Wenjing exclaimed, "Mr. Lou?"
Doctor Li was also stunned, "Miss Li, do you recognize this person?"
Lu Wenjing carefully looked at the face of the man lying on the stretcher again, then picked up his wrist and wiped it clean with the towel.
Sure enough, I saw a black mole the size of a grain of rice on my wrist.
Lou Yanlin looked much thinner and more haggard than when he was seen in the capital before, which was a little different from what she remembered, but Lu Wenjing had seen the black mole on his wrist before and remembered it clearly.
"I recognize him. He was the shopkeeper of Qingfengju in Beijing. His family used to be in the spice business." Lu Wenjing said, "He left Beijing last year to go back home to take care of business. I haven't seen him since..."
Lou Yanlin claimed that he wanted to return to the Lou family in Xueyue Prefecture, but Lu Wenjing also knew that Wu Xingyu could not find the Lou family in Xueyue Prefecture.
Originally, Lu Wenjing thought that she would never see Lou Yanlin again, but she never expected that he was here.
Why is he here?
Why would Lou Yanlin lie about the Lou family?
and……
Lu Wenjing raised her head and looked at the yamen runner, "Was this person alone when he was found?"
"That's right." The yamen runner nodded, "He fainted in front of the county government gate at the time, and there was no one around."
In other words, his younger brother Lou Yansong was not with him.
What is going on here?
Lu Wenjing thought for a moment and said, "Please tell Magistrate Sun that Princess Ping'an and I both know this person, and we will tell Magistrate Sun when he wakes up."
"Yes." The bailiff responded and hurried back to pass on the message.
Lu Wenjing helped Doctor Li check on Lou Yanlin's condition at the moment.
Doctor Li felt the patient's pulse and examined him, frowning. "The symptoms are wet cholera, but there seem to be other symptoms as well. I'm not sure if it's caused by this disease or something else. We can only stop the abdominal pain and vomiting for now, and then talk about other things after it stabilizes."
"Since this person is an old friend of Miss Lu and Princess Ping'an, my medical skills are limited. Why not wait for Princess Ping'an to wake up and let her take a look at him?"
"Okay." Lu Wenjing nodded, "Please ask Doctor Li to prescribe the medicine first, and I will take care of this person."
Although Princess Ping'an and Lu Wenjing were both helping to treat the epidemic, Doctor Li was aware of their noble status and tried not to let them have too much contact with patients to avoid contracting the disease.
Lu Wenjing usually pays great attention to protection and disinfection. At this time, she offered to take care of this Mr. Lou without any intention of protection. It can be seen how important this Mr. Lou is.
Doctor Li did not dare to delay and quickly began to adjust the prescription and medication.
Lu Wenjing was busy helping out on the side. ——Because he was worried about the epidemic, Su Yujin didn't sleep for too long and got up.
After learning about Lou Yanlin's situation, he hurried over to check it out.
At this time, Lou Yanlin had changed his clothes and was placed in a small house under the care and arrangement of Lu Wenjing.
Su Yujin took his pulse and looked at the medicine prepared by Doctor Li for him.
"The dosage is good, but although Mr. Lou's condition is serious, he shouldn't be in a coma." Su Yujin frowned and said, "And if he continues to be in a coma, he won't be able to take the medicine, and his condition will get worse and worse. The situation is quite bad."
"Doctor Li also said just now that he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it." Lu Wenjing said, "Sister Jin can't see the problem either?"
"For a moment..."
Su Yujin hesitated to speak, took Lou Yanlin's pulse again, and then tentatively searched his body.
It wasn't until I pressed on the back of my neck that I realized something was wrong.
After some tinkering, Su Yujin pulled out two tiny iron needles from behind Lou Yanlin's neck.
"Sister Jin, what is this?" Lu Wenjing exclaimed.
"Someone used an iron needle to inject into Lou Yanlin's acupuncture points, which caused him to remain in a coma." Su Yujin said.
In other words, someone wanted to harm Lou Yanlin...
Is he from the Lou family?
Su Yujin and Lu Wenjing looked at each other and pursed their lips.
"How long will it take for him to wake up?" Lu Wenjing was a little worried.
"After the iron needle is removed, he should wake up within half an hour to an hour." Su Yujin said, "But he is very weak due to the epidemic, so we don't know yet. We can only see his physical condition."
It's the same cholera, but the symptoms are different in each person, and the degree of damage to the body is also different. Lou Yanlin has also been ambushed, so whether he can wake up in time depends on God's will.
Lu Wenjing understood what Su Yujin meant and nodded, then her eyes fell on Lou Yanlin who was still unconscious.
Full of worries.
Lou Yanlin's condition was more serious than expected. Even after Lu Wenjing fed him half a bowl of medicine, he vomited again.
His complexion was visibly more haggard and bluer.
Su Yujin had to give Lou Yanlin acupuncture to save him. After being busy for a long time, he finally drank the second bowl of medicine.
More than an hour later, around dusk, Lou Yanlin opened his eyes.
When he saw Su Yujin and Lu Wenjing in front of him, he was obviously very excited, but because of his extremely weak body, he just opened his mouth again and again but could not utter a word.
When he struggled to get up, he felt another sharp pain in his abdomen.
"Mr. Lou, lie down first." Su Yujin said, "Mr. Lou has been infected with the epidemic, and his condition is extremely serious now. He needs to take medicine on time and recuperate carefully. If you have anything to say, it's best to wait until you have recovered and have enough strength before speaking in detail."
Lou Yanlin's disappearance was strange, and his appearance at this time was even stranger. Su Yujin believed that he must have a lot to say.
Ah, my niece is applying for college, and my sister asked me to help her with references. I collected a lot of information, and now my head is already twice as big...
