Seeing that the two men had given in, everyone separated them and listened to their statements to prevent them from playing any tricks.

Although the two people used different words in their narratives, what they said was almost the same.

When Hua Yuanzhao and others asked about it before, Li only said that seven or eight people died in the village, and was even more vague about the number of people who were sick.

But in reality, almost all the people in Wushan Village were infected with the disease, and more than half of them died. The rest were just lying in bed waiting to die.

Nowadays, not many people can even get out of bed and walk.

Even the barefoot doctor who came to the village to treat patients contracted the disease and died.

"What about the county? Is there no one here to take care of it?" Princess Changle couldn't help but ask. The situation in Wushan Village was so serious, why hadn't it been reported yet? Where was the county magistrate? Didn't he know to send someone to take a look?

"Why didn't they do anything?" Li smiled bitterly and spoke with difficulty: "The county sent a doctor... but it was useless..."

The doctors from the county town couldn’t save them, let alone others?

Many people died in the village, and the county magistrate was afraid that the disease was a plague, so he ordered people to seal off the entire village and let the people in the village fend for themselves.

This is a relatively merciful approach...

At this point, Li continued to beg for mercy: "We really haven't harmed anyone else... No one has come to Wushan Village for a long time... Please let Daya go... She is still a child..."

Hua Yuanzhao was silent for a long time, then he held Li's wrist, carefully felt her pulse, and read her face, but still found nothing.

The Li in front of us, like her daughter Daya, has some health problems, but most of them are caused by poverty.

Gongsun Li hesitated for a moment, then ran out and took the pulse of the man outside the house.

Not long after, he came back and stood at the door, shaking his head at Hua Yuanzhao: "Doctor Hua, this person outside does have symptoms of typhoid fever, but judging from the symptoms, it doesn't look like the plague."

When Hua Yuanzhao went out, the man had already explained the situation in the village in detail and was kneeling beside him begging for mercy.

Hua Yuanzhao stepped forward to take his pulse, and after looking at it carefully for a long time, he nodded helplessly to Gongsun Li.

Her conclusion was the same as Gongsun Li's. Judging from the symptoms and pulse alone, the man was only suffering from common typhoid fever.

It’s not difficult to cure!

It's just that there is a shortage of doctors and medicine in this place, so some patients die.

Apart from that, the scope of infection wasn't right. Unfortunately, she couldn't use any instruments to check in front of so many people, so she could only use the old method.

"I want to check the pulse of each villager one by one." Hua Yuanzhao asked carefully, "Only tonight, it won't delay our journey tomorrow, is that okay?"

"no!"

Several voices sounded at the same time, scaring Hua Yuanzhao.

Princess Lin'an played with the whip and looked up at the sky silently.

Sister Hua is of noble status, so it's ok for her to diagnose the pulse of commoners occasionally, but how could she be so eager to treat everyone in this village?

Rong Xiu touched his nose, looking embarrassed.

Zhao Zhao had been seasick for the past few days and finally had a chance to rest for a while. How could he spend the whole night treating patients? Wasn't Gongsun Li next to him also a miracle doctor?

Princess Changle was speechless. She looked at the brother and sister, as if to say: Who of you will speak first?

The three of them exchanged glances, and the Rong siblings looked away at the same time, leaving the right to speak to Princess Changle.

Princess Changle cleared her throat and said after careful consideration: "We are rushing to Xianqin Mansion and cannot afford to delay. Doctor Hua... Doctor Hua, if the plague really breaks out in Wushan Village, what should we do?"
