After Li Zhuo bestowed the Imperial Sword upon him, he asked curiously, "Grand Master, your memorial mentioned the need to isolate the patients. Approximately how long will this isolation last?"
"We still don't know what kind of epidemic this is, so the first thing we need to do after we arrive is to investigate the symptoms and find the right medicine. This process may take ten days, half a month, or even longer. Therefore, during this period, those four cities are only allowed to enter but not leave!
