This place seemed like a hell, and those villagers were like captives pulled down from heaven by the messenger of hell. Shen Yan couldn't help but sigh: "Every change of regime must go through war, but have they ever thought that the war will eventually harm the people? Those idiots in the court, the civil officials are buried in their studies all day long. Although they are full of knowledge, they can't understand the suffering of the people at all. When they give advice, they can only flatter the emperor; the military officials only know how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle, and they solve everything by brute force. They will provoke wars if they disagree with each other. The ministers were originally used to solve problems for the emperor and make suggestions, but now they have become flatterers and bootlickers. The emperor doesn't care, and they sing and dance every day, accompanied by delicious food and beautiful women, and live a life of drunkenness and dreams. Look at these people, they already have heavy taxes, and with the raging war, how can they bear it? Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. The great country is in danger!"
"Although we are two people with little strength, we can still help these people. We will save as many people as possible. You will be responsible for bringing the injured victims to me, gathering those who are not injured or slightly injured, and doing some logistical work for everyone." Lu Wan made up his mind to help these poor people.
Although Chen Yan was usually playful and non-serious, he was very helpful at critical moments. He gathered a group of people in a short while. In fact, these people did not believe him at all. After all, such a young man said that there was a miracle doctor here who could cure them for free. No one would believe him. They all came with the mentality of giving it a try.
Seeing that the so-called miracle doctor was a woman dressed in plain clothes and as pretty as a fairy, they were even more disappointed. They all knew there was no hope. Some middle-aged women even said sourly, "Oh, these days, anyone dares to pretend to be a miracle doctor. You are just a young girl, do you know how to write the word "medical skills"? Don't think that you can make everyone think you are a miracle doctor just because you are beautiful. I don't know what dirty tricks you used to gain the trust of this young master."
"That's right, what does a child know? Don't pretend to know. If you kill someone with your medical treatment, you won't be able to take the consequences."
"Leave here! Leave here! Leave here!" The people below immediately echoed after being instigated by several people.
"I know whether I am a miracle doctor or not. All the doctors in this village are gone, right? If you don't want to seek treatment from me, you can wait for the next doctor to come. I just don't know when he will come, and I don't know if you can survive until he comes. Come! Those who are willing to be treated by me, stand in a line. I will treat you first. As for the others, since you don't believe in me, I can only let them fend for themselves!"
Lu Wan knew that someone would cause trouble but he didn't care. He just did his best. If he argued with such a person, he would only lower his own value. Although most people do not believe in her medical skills, they all value their lives and understand that in these desolate mountains and wilderness, no one knows when passers-by will pass by, let alone doctors. If they don't treat the disease, they will just wait for death, so they might as well take a gamble.
Lu Wan opened the medicine box and treated those who were less seriously injured first. He treated their wounds, bandaged them, and gave them some instructions. Then he asked them to help fetch water, cook, and gather other people. The village was so big that Shen Yan alone would definitely not be enough.
At this time, Lu Wan was seen as a fairy by the villagers. Decades later, the story of a fairy in plain clothes coming down to earth to save thousands of people from disasters was still circulating. After a while, Lu Wan discovered something wrong. Almost every villager had symptoms of low fever, accompanied by cough, pale face, weak limbs, dizziness, slow reaction, vomiting and diarrhea. Almost all the villagers had similar symptoms. Lu Wan felt that this might be some kind of plague.
In other words, it is what we call influenza in modern times. We dare not confirm it yet. We have to wait for the next group of people to come and observe. Lu Wan actually couldn't believe it. Some influenzas are difficult to cure and are still an unsolved mystery in modern times. What's more, this is not the 21st century with advanced technology, but the backward ancient times. Without advanced equipment, these people may all die.
After checking two groups of people, Lu Wan had to believe it even if she didn't want to. This was really the flu. She pretended to be tired and said she wanted to take a rest. She called Chen Yan over and said to him, "Chen Yan, this village has been infected with the plague. You can ask healthy people to make a few batches of veils according to this drawing. The water source in the village must be unusable. You can find some strong men to see if they can dig another well. This is the mask I made for fun before. You wear it first.
. "He said as he put the mask on Shen Yan.
Shen Yan immediately wanted to take it off and said, “What will you do if I wear it? You have to face so many patients, so you should wear it.”
"No! I can listen to you on other matters, but you must listen to me on this matter. You have to wear it, and never take it off unless it is absolutely necessary. If I see you without it, we can just be friends again." This was the first time Lu Wan spoke in such a firm tone.
Chen Yan smiled dotingly and said, "Awan, this is the first time I see you look so neat. I really like you more and more. I promise you that I will never take it off. Don't say such things again in the future, or I will spank you." The last two sentences were said in Lu Wan's ear, with a teasing tone. Lu Wan patted him shyly: "Be serious, stop joking, go!" Shen Yan pinched Lu Wan's face and ran away quickly, and Lu Wan also hurried to continue the consultation.
After a while, Shen Yan came to tell Lu Wan: "Ah Wan, it's been dry all year round and it's hard to dig wells here. What's more, all the young men are infected with the plague. Can you think of other ways?"
