Chapter 90: Master is long, Master is short, it’s never over, right?

"Su Mei." Seeing that Su Mei stopped talking, Huo Jianguo called out Su Mei's name in the corner.

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Mei was stunned for a moment before turning her head. After confirming that it was Huo Jianguo calling her, she asked in surprise:

"Hey, when did you come here?"

"I have been standing here since you left!" Huo Jianguo's voice sounded somewhat resentful. It turned out that he was standing here in such a big body, but she didn't even see him?

Su Mei was now concentrating on becoming a disciple, and did not notice anything wrong with Huo Jianguo. She glanced at the sky and said:

"Sorry, it was too dark, I couldn't see it!"

"Am I that dark?" Huo Jianguo was very dissatisfied.

Su Mei was puzzled: "I mean, it's too dark."

"Oh..." Huo Jianguo touched his head awkwardly and quickly changed the subject: "What's the situation with the new recruits? How come more than 40 of them fell ill all at once?"

"Not just forty." Su Mei shook her head. She glanced at Qin Zhengting and said wearily, "The number of people who are sick has been increasing. Now it has exceeded eighty.

We initially suspected food poisoning, so we induced vomiting and gave them antidotes, but it didn't help at all.

So we can basically rule out the possibility of food poisoning. If we rule out food poisoning as a possible cause of this kind of widespread outbreak, then I think it is very likely that there has been an epidemic!"

"Plague!" Huo Jianguo shouted, his eyes widened in horror, and then he turned his gaze to Qin Zhengting who was resting with his eyes closed.

Qin Zhengting also opened his eyes at this time. He nodded very seriously at Huo Jianguo: "It should be the plague."

"So what should we do now?" Even Qin Zhengting said it was a plague, and Huo Jianguo's expression immediately became serious.

Qin Zhengting stood up and took two steps forward with unsteady steps.

"Master, please be careful." Su Mei quickly stepped forward and helped Qin Zhengting.

This help earned Qin Zhengting a roll of his eyes: "Why are you meddling in other people's business? If you have time to please me here, why don't you go in and give me a few more injections and help two more people."

"Master taught me that. I'll go right away." Su Mei said as she was about to go back to the dormitory.

"Come back." Qin Zhengting stopped her with a dark face and said, "Let's discuss this matter first. Judging from the current situation, I think the possibility of a plague is greater.

Although I sealed off this place as soon as I arrived, there is no guarantee that these soldiers who have fallen ill may have come into contact with other people before they became ill.

So Jianguo, the first thing you need to do now is to notify all the soldiers in the regiment to stop all activities from now on.

Those on patrol are not allowed to come back, and those in the military area are not allowed to go out. The scope of everyone's activities must be reduced as much as possible. In addition, all activities in the Military Academy must also be stopped.

We must cut off all transportation links between the military region and the outside world."

When a plague occurs, the first thing to do is for everyone to stay indoors to avoid cross-infection.

Qin Zhengting had already made this point very clear, and Su Mei did not elaborate. She told Huo Jianguo another important thing:

“We need to check the activities of these new soldiers in the recent days to see if they have encountered anything special, because we need to find out the source of the plague in time.

At present, we only know that it is a plague. Under current conditions, we need to find out the source of the plague before we can determine the type of plague."

"Yes." Qin Zhengting nodded: "The most important thing at the moment is this, Jianguo, you should hurry up and do it!"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Huo Jianguo nodded, then turned around and left quickly.

Su Mei and Qin Zhengting did not relax for too long. They just stood at the door for a while before a soldier rushed out and called out to them:

"Doctor Qin, Doctor Su, it's bad, someone else is sick."

The two men were so exhausted that their bodies were paralyzed, but when they heard the shouting, they hunched over and rushed back into the dormitory where the sick soldiers were isolated.

This busyness lasted until dawn.

When the sky was turning pale, a soldier came in and called Su Mei and Qin Zhengting, saying that Huo Jianguo had arrived.

After getting the news, the two went out again. Su Mei felt that her hands were so sore that they didn't feel like her own. She and Qin Zhengting went out and met Huo Jianguo who was waiting at the door.

When he saw Su Mei and Qin Zhengting, Huo Jianguo got straight to the point:

"The military area has been sealed off now. Another issue is the source of infection. I have carefully asked all the instructors of the new recruits.

One of the instructors said that when he was leading the team, he discovered a cave where the Japanese were conducting biological and chemical experiments.

At that time he sent people in to investigate, but found nothing inside, so he had them seal the entrance of the cave with soil.

Almost all of the forty or so soldiers who fell ill had been to that cave.

"Go check that cave immediately!" Su Mei and Qin Zhengting said almost in unison.

Huo Jianguo nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll go now."

"What's the point of you going? Take me with you." Qin Zhengting held his old waist and took a step forward, then turned around and glanced at Su Mei:

"I'm going to go check out the cave, and I'll leave the things here to you, okay?"

"Master, don't worry. Leave this to me. I will try my best to perform acupuncture." Su Mei vowed.

Qin Zhengting: “….”

Master is long, Master is short, it never ends, right?
