Chapter 74 Are all the people in the Southern Territory this fierce?



Whether it's killing them by swatting, poisoning, or even burning them.

By the second day, the number of flying insects would increase many times over.

These flying insects bite everything, move incredibly fast, and swarm around anything they encounter for a long time, yet they don't seem to cause much harm.

Most of the time, these insects seem to be courting death, frantically crashing into all sorts of things, sticking their corpses everywhere with their slimy bodily fluids.

It won't kill you, but it's disgusting; anyone who's encountered it knows.

Fearing being entangled by these things, the villagers kept their doors and windows closed and dared not go out.

Every time someone had to go out, there was chaos and commotion when they came back, just like the noise the group of people had just heard. Every household was experiencing the same kind of commotion.

This isn't a sentiment unique to this young couple.

Three days ago, people in the village started getting sick.

Most of them were children.

It started with diarrhea, and it was so rapid that we had to keep giving the patient saline solution.

If you don't administer the sip quickly enough, your intestines will spill out.

That evening, the patient started to have a fever again, and they could no longer take any medicine. They could only keep wiping the body with water to cool it down.

The village doctor, fearing it was a harbinger of an epidemic, had already gathered all the patients together in one place.

Everything that comes out of there must be burned.

In the past, people who delivered things were always wrapped up tightly. They would also fumigate themselves with mugwort before leaving and burn their outermost clothes.

The man in this family is named Liu Zhan, and he is the second oldest in his family.

He is usually a meticulous, warm-hearted, and quick-tempered young man.

He was in good health and took the initiative to deliver medicine to the makeshift clinic.

The whole commotion happened today because I just got back from the makeshift clinic.

There were ten patients in the clinic: three adults and seven children.

The adults simply had diarrhea, and after treatment, they have all shown significant improvement.

Today I'm already able to help the village doctor with some tasks.

However, the seven children had multiple symptoms, and two of them were already in a coma.

If this continues, I'm afraid my life will be in danger.

Although the villagers are still able to keep their emotions in check, the situation would be very different if someone, especially a child, had died.

The most urgent thing is to go and see those children.

After asking Liu Er, everyone rushed to the temporary clinic.

This makeshift clinic was clearly an abandoned temple, and it occupied a considerable area.

Judging from the degree of decay of the building, it has been abandoned for at least several decades.

Only the main hall is relatively well preserved.

The villagers of the Southern Border are known for their diligence, so why would they allow a temple to fall into disrepair?

A row of children lay in the main hall, and a village doctor, fully equipped with protective gear, was giving them acupuncture.

Two other adults were giving one of the children saline solution.

Another important thing is to clean up the child's excrement promptly.

They cooperated very well, as if they were one person.

Because of the severe diarrhea, the restaurant had a constant foul odor, making people extremely uncomfortable.

After the village doctor finished the acupuncture, he painfully tilted his head back and rubbed his lower back, indicating that he was extremely exhausted.

He had been squatting for quite a while, and when he stood up, he staggered a little. He turned his head unintentionally and saw a group of teenagers coming in.

The village doctor's exhaustion vanished instantly. He stamped his feet and started cursing, "What are you bunch of idiots doing here? Have your brains been eaten by dogs?"

Luo Lianjiang bent his knees slightly, turned his head, covered his mouth, and whispered to Ji Kongmeng behind him, "Are all the people in the Southern Border this fierce?"

Ji Kongmeng said, "No, you're just unlucky. They don't usually act like this."

Luo Lianjiang straightened up and replied seriously, "Old man, we were sent by the Immortal Venerable's Mansion to help you, not some melon, you little brat."

The village doctor was completely wrapped up, with only his eyes showing.

He hesitated for a long time before turning to Luo Lianjiang and saying, "You, and the taller one next to you, come over here. The other little kids, stay away from here."

The village doctor only allowed Luo Lianjiang and Zheng Nansheng, the two older children, to go, naturally because he was worried that the other children, who were too young, would catch the illness.

Although his words are harsh, he is a genuinely good person.

No wonder the villagers are so obedient.

Even when the children are seriously ill, no one comes here to cause trouble.

Xi Louxue said, "Old man, I have been studying poisonous insects with my grandfather since I was a child, so I can definitely help you."

"Then you come here too. The rest of you get the hell out!"

What a temper!

The group could only retreat dejectedly.

Looking at the old man, Ye Wan instantly thought of Luo Baixian, the medical cultivator in her own valley.

An old man with a smelly white beard, who just happens to love wearing all white clothes.

They made him look like the White Impermanence.

She personally cleans the clinic every day.

Everything in the yard was arranged neatly. If anyone dared to mess it up, even if they were about to die, he would still have to put things back in order.

In the valley, he didn't care about anyone except Su Hanjiang.

Although his cultivation level was not high, outsiders often sent invitations to Moonfall Crow Cry Valley, asking him to come out of the valley to treat patients.

In the original story, in the Monster Forest, Ye Wan, the original owner of the body, secretly left the group in order to meet with Zheng Nansheng.

Although Zheng Nansheng felt that leaving the group in the Monster Forest was suicidal, he had no choice but to agree to meet Ye Wan privately in order to calm her down.

With a little care, a short time together should be fine.

To their utter surprise, the two had barely met and hadn't even uttered their names when they encountered the top-tier demonic beast, the Phoenix Winged Nether Tiger.

And it was an uninjured Phoenix Winged Nether Tiger.

A top-tier demonic beast at the peak of the fourth tier, a tiger-like creature, capable of flight.

Any one of them, if pulled out randomly, could terrify cultivators below the Golden Core stage.
