Chapter 138 Food Contamination



The constables following behind him were covered in dust and dirt, and Xue Lin's face was ashen; he had clearly reprimanded them.

The man's gaze swept around, quickly landing on Ning Xi'er. He immediately picked up the child and rushed to Ning Xi'er's side...

He knelt on both knees, his voice choked with sobs.

"Please, miracle doctor, save my daughter!"

Without saying a word, Ning Xi'er immediately told him to put the child down.

Unexpectedly, the child, who had just been unconscious, suddenly vomited a lot of filth and looked pained.

The man showed no disgust, wiping the girl's mouth with his sleeve, holding the child tightly, and looking to Ning Xier for help.

Ning Xi'er immediately took her pulse and found no other symptoms besides the plague. She then used her sleeve as a cover to inject streptomycin into her.

They asked the yamen runner for a bowl of spiritual spring liquid and medicine, poured it into the girl's mouth to rinse her mouth, and then she swallowed the rest.

Ning Xi'er told the man to carry the girl to a corner to rest, and that her condition would improve soon.

The man bowed again and kowtowed to Ning Xi'er.

Ning Xi'er had no time for formalities and immediately began treating the others.

Xue Lin was strict in his administration. The man, who was originally at another gathering point, suddenly deteriorated in condition, and the doctors couldn't control it with acupuncture and medication...

Hearing that a miraculous healer in the city had cured the city's doctors and constables, the man inquired about the healer's whereabouts and begged the constable to let him pass so he could bring his daughter to seek treatment...

Unexpectedly, these yamen runners were arrogant and thought they were relieving the adults' worries. They used the excuse that the adults couldn't even take care of their own wives and daughters to obstruct them, almost causing the little girl's death.

Xue Lin summoned the yamen runners to the outside of the charity hall, ordered them to maintain discipline, and instructed them to deliver messages to other gathering points.

Fifteen minutes later, the girl regained consciousness and realized she was hungry.

The man was overjoyed and immediately came to tell Ning Xi'er. He took the cakes and porridge from the yamen runner and fed his daughter.

With the blessing of the spiritual spring liquid, Ning Xi'er held on until dawn, and administered injections to the patients in the charity hall according to their severity and urgency.

As dawn broke, he realized he hadn't slept all night. Ning Xi'er gave him some spiritual spring liquid, and he felt much more energetic.

Just as the two were about to leave and head to the next critically ill patient concentration point—the school—they suddenly heard a man behind them scream!

"A miracle doctor!"

Ning Xi'er turned around, and the man picked up the little girl and brought her to him.

She vomited again, and her face was even paler than when she arrived.

Ning Xi'er took her pulse again, but instead of immediately administering the injection, she took out a water pouch filled with spiritual spring water from her sleeve...

The man was instructed to force-feed the girl the medicine.

She pricked the girl's fingertip with a silver needle, collected the blood in a small porcelain bottle, and conducted a test.

Half an hour later, the medical laboratory report showed that even though the girl had been injected with streptomycin, a large number of active bacteria still remained in her body.

Ning Xi'er frowned and asked the girl about the environment and food she had been exposed to since her treatment.

Although the man was anxious, his voice remained relatively calm.

The report stated that she remained in the same spot to rest, except for being fed the cakes and porridge prepared by the charity, and she went to the outhouse once.

Ning Xier specifically instructed that multiple temporary outhouses be set up for patients, and that they be disinfected and filled in regularly.

More likely, it's in the pastries and porridge that were eaten.

Ning Xi'er asked the yamen runners to bring out all the food, including the cakes and porridge, intended for the patients and for the patients themselves.

Ning Xier used the excuse that the testing environment needed to be relatively clean to avoid being seen by others, and sent all the samples to the space laboratory.

Before the results were available, several more people in the hall were injected with the same medication by Ning Xi'er, and they still vomited or fell into a coma.

When Ning Xi'er asked, she found out that they had indeed eaten the food prepared by the charity.

The test results came back, and sure enough, the problem was with the grain!

Ning Xi'er immediately re-injected her family members with the medication and replenished them with a large amount of spiritual spring liquid, which brought their condition under control.

She instructed the guards present that from this moment forward, the patients and the others could only drink the medicine she had brought, and were not allowed to eat any other food for the time being.

The food is already contaminated; eating it will only worsen the condition.

Even if she tried to treat him, it would be in vain.

When Ning Xi'er questioned the yamen runners about the food and began to inspect it, Xue Lin's heart skipped a beat; he had already guessed what was going on.

Ning Xi'er clearly stated that the environment, food, and debris that the patients had come into contact with needed to be disinfected, but due to the large number of people, there was practically no uncontaminated area in the city...

With hundreds of thousands of mouths to feed every day, there's a fear of not being able to procure enough food, so people are taking a chance...

result......

"Knock knock!"

The door of the charity hall was knocked loudly, and the yamen runner who came to deliver the news was extremely anxious.

"grown ups!"

The courtyard gate opened from the inside, and the guard stumbled in and rushed to Xue Lin, but spoke to Ning Xi'er instead.

"Miracle doctor, many people in the temple are vomiting and unconscious. Please come and take a look!"

Ning Xi'er immediately asked, "Did they eat the food prepared by the temple?"

The constable was taken aback for a moment, then immediately nodded.

Before the miracle doctor's treatment, most people fell into a coma and were unable to eat, so they could only wait for someone to help them feed them medicine.

After the divine healer's treatment, the patients gradually regained consciousness. Hungry and exhausted, they were given food by the monks and guards...

Xue Lin's face was ashen; the word "regret" was insufficient to describe his feelings at that moment.

Turning to look at Ning Xi'er, he felt even more ashamed and speechless.

Ning Xi'er said calmly, "Quick! Check on the progress of the grain harvest outside the city and make amends as soon as possible!"

Reminded by Ning Xi'er, Xue Lin immediately led his guards out of the courtyard.
