Chapter 213 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
Huo Tiankuo's face soon appeared on the communication screen.
"I came here today and heard from the village chief that Brother Lu had gone out."
Lu Xuan said, "I'm going out to do some business with the other surviving towns where the disaster victims are gathered. I'm currently in Luochuan, the capital of Yunjiang Prefecture."
Huo Tiankuo perked up, "Luochuan City is still there?"
Lu Xuan nodded. "It's well preserved. The city has taken in some disaster victims from the surrounding areas, and the population is still 180,000."
Huo Tiankuo looked relieved.
One hundred and eighty thousand people, that's a lot.
After a moment, Huo Tiankuo looked a little nostalgic, as if he remembered something, and also a little hesitant.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan curled his lips and said, "General, are you thinking of an old friend?"
Huo Tiankuo's eyes flashed, "Did Brother Lu meet an old friend of mine over there? Is he okay?"
"Okay, okay! General, I'm here." Chu Ming, who was waiting nearby, couldn't wait to move closer to the screen and said, "General, how are you?"
Huo Tiankuo said with relief: "Chu Ming, I feel relieved to see that you are safe."
Chu Ming grinned with red eyes and said, "General, too. If it weren't for Master Lu, I wouldn't have known that the general was no longer in the southwest."
Although Chu Ming and Huo Tiankuo are of similar age, the latter became famous much earlier than Chu Ming and has a more brilliant record.
Chu Ming’s ability to become the garrison commander of Luochuan was earned by his many contributions when he followed Huo Tiankuo in the Huo family army.
In front of the Luochuan prefect and his soldiers, he was General Chu, but in front of Huo Tiankuo, he was just a former deputy general under the other party.
Huo Tiankuo said in a deep voice, "After the earthquake, the southwestern border town was destroyed. I led the surviving victims through many twists and turns, and only after encountering Yunlu Village where Brother Lu was did we settle down."
After listening to this, Chu Ming nodded and briefly talked about the situation in Luochuan after the earthquake.
Liu Wenchi and others were shocked when they heard Chu Ming call Huo Tiankuo. Then, the fear and concerns they had after Lu Xuan displayed his special abilities disappeared.
General Huo is a very capable person. Since the other party does not regard Lu Xuan as a threat, but instead keeps in touch with him and even lives next to him, they don't need to worry about anything.
Chu Ming and Huo Tiankuo briefly reminisced about the past and then returned the initiative to Lu Xuan.
Huo Tiankuo looked at Lu Xuan and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Besides Luochuan, where else does Brother Lu plan to go?"
Lu Xuan said: "Next we will probably have to go to three or four more gathering places in different directions."
He guessed what Huo Tiankuo wanted to ask, and said with a smile, "Of course we have to go to the capital."
When these words were spoken, not only Huo Tiankuo was moved, but Chu Ming, Liu Wenchi and others were also a little excited.
Lu Xuan said: "I will contact the general again after I understand the situation over there."
If nothing unexpected happens, Luochuan will be able to reconnect with the capital.
Huo Tiankuo said: "Then I would like to thank Brother Lu first."
When Chu Ming and Huo Tiankuo were reminiscing about the past, Chu Ming had already given his contact number to the other party.
Afterwards, they would naturally contact each other on their own to learn more about each other's situations, and...inquire about Lu Xuan's background, strength, and background, etc.
So Lu Xuan and Huo Tiankuo just exchanged a few words before ending the communication.
Almost at the same time, a young man who looked like a servant ran over to Liu Wenchi with an anxious look on his face and said, "Oh no, sir, the young master is missing!"
Liu Wenchi's face changed and he asked anxiously, "What's going on? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him?"
The servant said guiltily, "I wasn't paying attention and let the young master escape."
"Then go find him quickly!" Liu Wenchi hurriedly said goodbye to the others and left with Liu Zimo and the servants.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Ming, "Who is the young master that person is talking about?"
Chu Ming sighed with a look of regret. "It's the prefect's son, Liu Ziying. He was weak from birth and had a high fever when winter came. Although he managed to survive, he became mentally ill and behaves like a child. He needs someone to look after him, otherwise he'll get lost if you're not careful."
Lu Xuan was thoughtful. He was burned silly... maybe it was brain damage?
"Maybe I have a way to cure Liu Ziying."
Chu Ming, who was still sighing, paused and said in surprise, "Are you serious?!"
Lu Xuan nodded.
Chu Ming slapped his thigh and said, "That's great!"
He and Liu Ziying were not very familiar with each other, having only met a few times before the disaster, but he knew that the other party was a gentle and somewhat shy young man.
It is really a pity to see that someone like Lu Xuan, who was in his prime, was burned to the level of a three or four-year-old child's intelligence.
Of course, there is another very important reason. Liu Ziying is not the only one in the city who has a burned-out brain.
Some are in worse condition than him. They have become real fools, drooling, unable to understand human language, and even picking up dog feces to eat.
He wasn't sure exactly how many people like this there were, but there were probably about a hundred or eighty of them.
If everything could be cured, wouldn’t that be a great thing?
"Quick, let's go to the government office and tell Lord Liu the news. He will definitely be very happy when he knows it."
…
When they arrived at the government office, Liu Ziying had already been found.
In fact, the person had not walked too far, and many people in the city recognized him. Before the servants could go look for him, someone took the initiative to bring him back and received two nutritional supplements as a reward.
As soon as Chu Ming arrived at the government office, he relayed Lu Xuan's words to Liu Wenchi, who excitedly asked Lu Xuan, "Does Master Lu really have a way to cure Ziying?"
Lu Xuan glanced at Liu Ziying, who was looking at him curiously beside Liu Wenchi. Looking at her innocent and ignorant eyes, she really didn't look like an adult.
Lu Xuan nodded affirmatively: "It can be cured."
"Great, great!" Liu Wenchi squeezed his son's hand tightly, his expression moved. "Please, Master Lu, treat Ziying. I'm willing to pay any fee you need!"
Lu Xuan glanced at the price of the relevant liquid medicine in the mall and said, "Don't worry, sir. The price is not expensive. It only requires ten kilograms of mutant food."
A bottle of special medicine costs only 1,000 points and can be used to treat 5 people, which means only 200 points per person.
The recycling price of a pound of mutant grain is more than this.
"What a bargain!" Chu Ming exclaimed.
Liu Wenchi was also shocked and asked subconsciously: "I wonder how long it will take to see the effect of the treatment?"
Lu Xuan said: "You have to see it to know."
Liu Wenchi and Chu Ming were a little confused. What were they looking at?
Lu Xuan’s answer was to take out the medical cabin directly.
The people present were startled when they saw the big guy suddenly appear, and then they found out that it was something they had never seen before, and they couldn't help but look surprised.
"What is this?"
Lu Xuan: "Medical cabin."
He briefly explained that the medical cabin could treat various diseases, and then signaled Liu Wenchi to let Liu Ziying take off her clothes and lie down in it.
Liu Wenchi: Lie down?
He glanced at the medical cabin and suddenly realized... apart from its extremely delicate appearance and indistinguishable material, its long shape that allowed people to lie down inside made it look like a peculiar 'coffin'.
Liu Wenchi: It’s so unlucky.
But looking at his son's confused eyes, Liu Wenchi felt a pain in his heart. He suppressed his thoughts about the medical cabin and coaxed his son to lie down in it.
Lu Xuan first gave the other person a full body examination, glanced at the estimated treatment time, and while injecting the medicine, he told Liu Wenchi: "It will take a quarter of an hour to cure."
Liu Wenchi: “!!!” So fast?
Chu Ming and Liu Zimo were also confused.
They thought that they would have to take medicine for at least ten days or half a month, and maybe even need acupuncture or other methods, but... they ended up... lying down for just a quarter of an hour and it cured them?
Several people really couldn't believe that there was such a magical treatment in the world.
But a quarter of an hour later.
Looking at Liu Ziying who had changed her clothes, her eyes were no longer as confused as before, but had regained the cleanliness that everyone was familiar with.
Chu Ming exclaimed: "It's actually healed!?"
"Father! I am an unfilial son and have caused you worry." Liu Ziying did not forget his experience after becoming 'stupid' and looked very guilty.
Liu Wenchi didn't care about these things. Looking at Liu Ziying's familiar eyes and expression, he hugged him tightly with excitement, "Ziying! My son!"
Liu Zimo was also very pleased with his cousin's recovery, but he soon thought of other families in need in the city and asked Lu Xuan if he could use this method to treat other people as well.
Lu Xuan said: "As long as you pay enough for the medicine, I can treat you. But I have to leave tomorrow..."
Liu Zimo quickly calculated the time.
If there are only six or seven hours, at most fifty people can be treated, but there are records of more than a hundred people in the city who have sequelae of fever.
Liu Zimo asked earnestly, "I wonder if Mr. Lu could stay for another day?"
We finally have a treatment method, but if only half of the people have the chance to be cured, it will inevitably be unfair to the other half.
In the disasters that will follow, people with brain diseases will have a lower chance of survival than others.
Lu Xuan had anticipated this outcome and nodded, saying, "Okay." It was only for one day, so he could still afford to delay it.
After calming down a little, Liu Wenchi learned of Lu Xuan's decision and thanked Lu Xuan again on behalf of the people in the city.
In order to avoid wasting time, Liu Wenchi asked the officers to find people whose families had similar conditions as soon as possible and come for treatment.
While waiting for someone, Chu Ming asked again about Lu Xuan's abilities.
Liu Wenchi and Liu Zimo listened attentively. Liu Ziying didn't quite understand what was going on, so he just listened quietly at the side.
Lu Xuan said: "My ability is innate, but..."
He took out a golden evolutionary fluid and said, "If anyone else wants to gain abilities, they can take this potion. There's a 30% to 50% chance of randomly gaining a certain ability, like the ability to turn the soil, make it rain, induce childbirth, or something like this that I've used before."
A fireball first condensed in Lu Xuan's palm, which quickly extinguished and turned into an ice arrow, then into a golden blade, a water ball, and finally turned into lightning and dissipated in the air.
The sight, which they had never seen before, made Liu Wenchi and the others tremble with fear and feel dizzy.
Chu Ming's eyes lit up and he said, "This is incredible!"
The fact that Lu Xuan possessed multiple special abilities was already enough to shock them, but now he actually told them that these abilities could be obtained by taking medicine?
In other words, they also have the opportunity to obtain those amazing abilities! ?
Chu Ming's face flushed, his breathing quickened, and he excitedly pressed on, "If I take multiple potions, can I gain multiple abilities? If I don't gain abilities the first time, will I definitely gain abilities by taking them a few more times?"
Livestream audience: [??? We're having a hard time getting even one, and you're still thinking of taking a few more? That's a dream!]
Lu Xuan played with the evolution liquid in his hand and said, "A person can only take one potion in their lifetime. More than one is useless. You can only gain one ability. If you are unlucky and don't gain an ability, your body will become much stronger, your strength will be extremely strong, and your five senses will be more acute."
When Liu Wenchi heard that it could make the body stronger, he immediately looked at Liu Ziying.
Chu Ming was a little disappointed, but quickly added, "It would be great to become stronger. Do you have a lot of this medicine?"
Lu Xuan shook his head: "Not many. This time, we can only provide five at most. The garrison has a heavy responsibility to protect the people in the city. These five potions will be used by General Chu and his soldiers."
Chu Ming was overjoyed, "That's great!"
Liu Wenchi opened his mouth, but thought of Zhao Tongpan and closed it again.
Fortunately, Lu Xuan said, "I will bring some more medicine next time."
Liu Wenchi felt relieved when he saw that he didn't say that the next batch of medicine would also be given to the garrison.
Lu Xuan noticed the change in Liu Wenchi's expression and curled his lips. He reminded him, "The mutant fruit we traded earlier can strengthen the body. Lord Liu, give some to Young Master Ziying, and he will naturally become healthier. Besides, the medical cabin not only repaired his brain disease, but also the frailty he was born with. Young Master Ziying is now no different from anyone else."
"Are you serious?!" Liu Wenchi asked excitedly.
Liu Ziying was also stunned for a moment. He looked down at his hands and touched his body, his expression a little dazed and incredible.
After the treatment, he did feel more relaxed than ever before, but he thought it was just because his brain had just been cured. Could it be that the problem he had in the womb had also been cured?
After getting the definitive answer from Lu Xuan, Liu Wenchi was no longer disappointed about not getting the potion. Instead, he patted his son's shoulder and laughed heartily, "My son has fully recovered. Great, that's great!"
After Liu Ziying came to her senses, she narrowed her eyes and thanked Lu Xuan sincerely.
At this time, the patients who had received the notice hurried to the government office in the dark, and the group stopped talking and started a new round of treatment.
…
That night, the candlelight in the side hall of the government office remained lit until dawn. The people coming and going did not stop, and the medical cabin continued to treat more patients.
Without exception, the recovered patients and their families were filled with joy when they left, and after returning home they were ecstatic to share the good news with their neighbors.
Yesterday, Lu Xuan released the vampire vine, which caused great panic among the people. The people who were released spread the news from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.
Some of them felt terrified and frightened, but more people admired and revered Lu Xuan even more.
Isn’t it normal for immortals to know immortal arts?
Zhao Tongpan and those who were instructed by him deserved the punishment, and the immortal did not harm any innocent people. What is there to be afraid of?
The young and energetic people were more curious about the appearance of the fairy vine, and they kept asking the people who were at the scene for details.
After the news that Lu Xuan could cure the fool was revealed today, those who had been murmuring in private completely shut up.
People with strong attack power are indeed frightening, but what if this person also possesses magical healing methods... who doesn't get sick in this world?
Who can guarantee that their relatives and friends will not suffer from some difficult and complicated diseases one day?
No one would be stupid enough to offend someone who can save his life.
For a moment, no one in the city said anything bad. If anyone did, they would cover their mouths to prevent the news from reaching Lu Xuan's ears.
Everyone wanted to praise Lu Xuan to the skies.
After Chu Ming obtained the evolution liquid, he returned to the camp. Apart from the one he was sure to use, he had to carefully consider how to distribute the rest.
Lu Xuan couldn't just sit and wait for the result. After curing the patient, he took out the flying vehicle again and flew away as usual in the astonished eyes of the people in the city.
·
Half a day later.
On a street in a smaller disaster relief area more than 700 kilometers away from Luochuan.
People setting up stalls or other disaster victims walking on the street suddenly smelled a particularly tempting fragrance and couldn't help but sniff.
"What smells so good?"
"It's the smell of food. I don't remember there being any food stores nearby."
The victims hadn't had a good meal for some days, and they couldn't resist the fragrance floating in the air, so they followed the smell all the way to the ruins not far away.
When we arrived at the place, we found that a strange-looking house had appeared out of nowhere in the open space in front of the ruins. In front of the house stood a tall young man in a black suit, with a big iron pot that was steaming in front of him.
Some people looked at the house behind the man in astonishment, while others noticed the man's appearance at the first moment and concluded that he was not from their place.
The sharp-eyed ones could vaguely sense from the other party's relaxed posture and expression that the other party must be quite powerful.
Many people became alert, and some even turned around and left, not knowing where they went.
The people who stayed behind glanced at the source of the fragrance bubbling in a large iron pot over one meter wide. They couldn't help swallowing and subconsciously walked closer.
When he saw the red soup in the pot, he didn't know what he thought of. His face changed at first, but then he found that it didn't have the nauseating smell he had smelled before, and he thought he must have been thinking wrongly.
The sharp eyes softened again and he asked the man, "What is this? Are you selling it?"
The man, Lu Xuan, said, "One spoonful of tomato and egg dumpling soup, two kilograms of wild vegetables or other equivalent supplies."
The person who spoke was startled and looked carefully at the ingredients in the pot. "Dumpling soup? There are noodles in it?"
Lu Xuan nodded.
The other people who gathered around were also in an uproar.
It's been more than half a year since the disaster happened, and there are still people who have noodles and are willing to sell them?
Someone noticed that in addition to the shredded eggs and the red color of the tomatoes that the other party mentioned, there were also quite a few white meatballs in the pot.
"What are these meatballs made of?"
Lu Xuan: "Fish balls, wild boar meatballs, roe deer meatballs, everything."
The disaster victims who gathered around were shocked: Wow! There are so many meatballs!
"Gudong." The sound of swallowing saliva became more and more obvious.
Soon someone said, "Give me a spoonful!"
It only costs two kilograms of wild vegetables to get eggs and meatballs. It’s so cheap.
Although I don’t know where this fool came from who doesn’t understand the market, but if you can get a good deal, you’d be a bastard not to take advantage of it!
They all saw the spoon Lu Xuan prepared. It was not small, and one spoon was enough to fill a bowl.
"I'll have a spoonful too!"
"I have a big appetite, give me two spoonfuls. I'll give you three pounds of mushrooms. Is that enough?" A strong man took out a bag of mushrooms and showed it to Lu Xuan.
The size and freshness of the mushrooms are naturally far inferior to those grown in the village mushroom house, but it can be seen that the quantity is sufficient.
Lu Xuan: "Okay."
Others mostly took wild vegetables or dried vegetables.
Lu Xuan accepted all of their requests, and after they got a broken bowl from somewhere, he filled it with dumpling soup for each of them.
After receiving the hot dumpling soup, the victims blew on it a few times and poured it into their mouths impatiently. As soon as the soup entered their mouths, their eyes widened slightly, and then they took one mouthful after another, not caring about the heat, and drank it all in one gulp.
The strong man who took out the mushrooms poured the last mouthful of soup into his mouth, wiped his mouth, and said loudly: "It tastes good!"
Others couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so delicious! I had never tasted such delicious dumpling soup before the earthquake. It's sour and sweet."
"There are at least four or five meatballs in this spoonful of mine, and there are quite a few dough balls in it too. It's so affordable!"
"It's a pity that I drank it too quickly and it wasn't satisfying at all. Boss, give me two more spoonfuls!"
Seeing their reaction, the others who were originally on the sidelines immediately came over and said, "Boss, I want one too!"
"And me!"
Some people at the back of the crowd exchanged glances with each other and quickly ran in different directions.
Lu Xuan took a glance and continued to serve dumpling soup to others.
Just as the first pot of dumpling soup was finished, several groups of people who were different from ordinary disaster victims appeared in the ruins.
When Lu Xuan saw the person coming, he curled his lips.
The fish took the bait.
The audience in the live broadcast room who were drinking the dumpling soup and waiting with Lu Xuan also became excited.
