Chapter 335 Doubt
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin nodded.
During the years she studied under Jiang Ning, her main profession was Western medicine, but she did not neglect her studies in traditional Chinese medicine.
With that talent, she, a self-taught individual, can only be considered average.
With Jiang Ning's guidance, Xu Jin helped save the people with silver needles. About half an hour later, all the people who were brought in were detoxified.
No more patients were brought in during this period.
Half an hour later, Shen Ziming returned.
Seeing that his wife and sister-in-law were both alright, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It's getting late, and the police will be here soon.
Jiang Ning took out a bottle of life-saving pills that she always carried with her and handed it to the brigade leader. "If any more patients in the village experience this condition, give them this medicine and send them to the hospital the next day."
The captain thanked Jiang Ning profusely.
Shen Ziming took Jiang Ning and Xu Jin home, thinking that the matter in the village had come to an end.
The next day was New Year's Day. When the whole family was planning to go out to the city to buy food for the holiday, the police suddenly came to their residential compound.
When the sentry at the entrance of the family compound saw that the police had come looking for them, he immediately stopped a passing military family member and asked her to call Jiang Ning, while he went to the barracks to inform Brigade Commander Liang.
When Brigade Commander Liang heard that the police were looking for Jiang Ning, he immediately left the barracks and headed towards the family compound.
They bumped into Jiang Ning, who was coming out of the family compound.
When Jiang Ning came out, she wasn't alone; the entire Shen family was with her.
The police officers who came were looking for Jiang Ning's help, but they didn't expect to attract so many people.
The police officers had come to their door because it involved a matter of life and death. They immediately looked at Jiang Ning and asked, "Comrade Jiang, did you save the people from Baijia Village last night?"
When they mentioned last night, Jiang Ning nodded.
Seeing her nod, the police officer said, "Comrade Jiang, this morning, more than half of the people in Baijia Village suddenly fainted. There are too many people who fainted, and we don't have time to send them to the hospital. We hope you can go to Baijia Village."
Since it was a matter of life and death, and the other party had come to her door in person, Jiang Ning couldn't refuse.
They immediately decided to go with the other party.
At this moment, Brigade Commander Liang walked over and said, "Dr. Jiang, I'll go with you to take a look. Baijia Village is very close to the camp. I know that the villagers in Baijia Village fainted because of poisoning."
Jiang Ning looked at Commander Liang in surprise.
The police officers only said that people in Baijia Village had fainted, but did not say that it was because of poisoning.
She didn't mention it last night either.
How did Commander Liang find out?
Seeing Jiang Ning's puzzled expression, Brigade Commander Liang stepped forward and spoke a few words in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Brigade Commander Liang said, "Dr. Jiang, I made this arrangement to ensure your safety. There is absolutely no intention to monitor you. They will not follow you while you are in the family compound."
What Brigade Commander Liang told Jiang Ning was that he had arranged for two people to secretly protect Jiang Ning's safety because Chen Man was a spy.
As time went on, and the people hadn't been brought back, he learned that Jiang Ning had gone to Baijia Village to treat people last night.
Jiang Ning was very grateful for Brigade Commander Liang's kindness, but she felt that sending two people to protect her secretly was a waste of camp resources and a great underutilization of talent.
But now is not the time to talk about these things; we need to deal with the poisoning of the villagers in Baijia Village first.
Jiang Ning, along with Xu Jin, her older brother, Brigade Commander Liang, and his orderly, went to Baijia Village with the public security officers.
When they arrived at Baijia Village, they went directly to the village head's house.
The brigade leader's house was already too small to accommodate so many people. Fortunately, there was a thatched shed outside his house where people could live.
When the captain saw Jiang Ning, he hurried over and said, "Dr. Jiang, the number of people who fainted this morning has suddenly increased. The pills you gave us didn't last long, so I discussed it with the police and asked if you could come and take a look."
A murder suddenly occurred in the village, and one after another, many people fainted. The fainting people were all in the same state. Fortunately, Dr. Jiang came to their village last night and said that the fainting people were poisoned. Otherwise, he would not know what caused the villagers to faint one after another.
After several people fainted last night and were cured by Jiang Ning, no one fainted again throughout the night. However, this morning, many more people fainted in the village, several times more than last night.
It really gave him a big fright.
He woke up early this morning and was busy moving everyone to his house, without even having a sip of water.
Jiang Ning and Xu Jin exchanged a glance and immediately took out silver needles to help detoxify and protect the heart meridian of the poisoned person.
Strangely enough, although these poisons are deadly, they can save a person if treated in time.
When it came to treating and saving lives, no one present could offer much help, so the police officers and Brigade Commander Liang went to question the battalion commander.
The village is located near the mountains, and the villagers occasionally go into the mountains to gather food. Inevitably, they may not recognize some poisonous plants or mushrooms, or they may encounter some poisonous snakes, insects, rodents, or ants.
However, occasionally some people are unlucky enough to eat poisonous food or be bitten by poisonous insects.
However, there are only one or two cases like this occasionally. It is absolutely impossible for an entire village to be poisoned on such a large scale, according to common sense.
Illness enters through the mouth, so they can only wait until Jiang Ning and Xu Jin wake the person up and ask them what they did after getting up that day that led to the poisoning.
The toxins had been lurking in their bodies for a short time. After most of the toxins were removed with silver needles, the villagers all woke up.
When the villagers woke up, the police officers planned to take out pens and notebooks to record their statements one by one.
They were made to recount in detail everything they had done since they got up.
The murder and poisoning incident both occurred in the same village. Since the poisoned person was saved, they naturally had to investigate the matter thoroughly to prevent more people from being poisoned without knowing the cause.
As the police officers took out their notebooks, Jiang Ning thought for a moment and said to one of them who had taken out a pen and notebook, "Make them explain what they ate and drank."
Jiang Ning said this because she already had a suspicion in her mind.
After giving these instructions, Jiang Ning looked at the captain and casually asked, "Captain, have you gotten up and eaten yet?"
Upon hearing this, the captain felt his mouth go dry. "No, quite a few people have fainted from poisoning since we arrived. I've been helping out the whole time. I haven't even had a chance to drink water, let alone eat."
