Before the guard above had finished speaking, the guard below had already pushed the city gate open under the command of the city guard.

The horse took a step forward, another few feet.

A Taoist priest who looked to be in his thirties was sitting on a horse, with a sallow complexion and a tired look on his face. A person and a fox were already greeting him behind the city gate.

"Senior brother! You are here!"

"Junior brother! How is the city?"

The fifth senior brother also immediately got off his horse. Regardless of his fatigue, the first thing he asked him was to ask him about this matter.

"Almost half of the people in the city are suffering from the plague, and I don't know whether the rest are not suffering from it or have not suffered from it. Since I have been in the city for the past two days, and the city has long been isolated from the outside world, I don't know about the villages outside the city or even other places.

What happened to several counties and cities, the epidemic ghost was not caught."

Lin Jue quickly talked about the situation in the city in simple words:

"People who are sick will first feel dizzy and feel weak, and then they will vomit acid water, insect eggs, and long worms as big as earthworms, which are still alive when they are vomited out."

"Where are they?"

"The plague is located in the south of the city, not far from here."

"He knows how to build a hospital, and he is considered a good epidemic officer in the city."

"Where are the other senior brothers?"

"He's on his way too, I guess he won't arrive in a few days."

"This way!"

Lin Jue took him through the streets and alleys.

As soon as they entered the prison, the fifth senior brother sniffed.

Then I heard the sound of vomiting in a nearby house.

“Go check it out!”

The fifth senior brother did not do anything to protect himself, not even covering his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and entered the house in one step.

Sure enough, someone just vomited.

The ground was mostly filled with light acidic water, exuding an unpleasant odor, and there were insect eggs as big as peanuts and some wriggling insects.

The fifth senior brother squatted down, picked up the insect, and examined it carefully.

Lin Jue looked calm.

The fox looked curiously.

"how?"

"It looks like a ghost plague that the predecessors of Fuqiu Temple have recorded, called snake plague." The fifth brother said, "This plague is brought by plague ghosts and comes from the north. According to ancient books, those with the plague spit out snakes.

.”

"north?"

Isn't this plague ghost from the south?

Lin Jue couldn't help but wonder.

"I don't know, and there's no need to worry about it. Epidemic ghosts are just like people, they will move around," said the fifth senior brother.

"Is there a cure?"

"I have just seen it. Although the disease is in the intestines and stomach, it is neither terminal nor directly damaging the root cause. I have acupuncture, and I think I can cure this disease." The fifth brother said as he walked, "As for the prescription, I only

I have heard that snake meat and snake gallbladder are useful for this, but it is only one of the prescriptions. In addition, the epidemic ghosts and plagues will change over the years. How to prepare the medicine specifically, the emperor and ministers will help me to see the pathology and think about it.

It takes a few days to reconcile the principles of yin and yang.”

"It would be great if we could come up with a prescription."

Lin Jue finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

The medical skills learned by his senior brother are actually the medical skills of those who practice Taoism. When they reach advanced levels, they can become medical immortals or bring people back to life. He does not doubt that his senior brother cannot cure this disease.

Just using acupuncture is too troublesome.

Even if it can be cured, there are so many people in the city, and there are still people outside the city, and maybe there are other counties. With the efforts of the fifth brother alone, day and night, there are not many people that can be cured.

"Senior brother is still very knowledgeable. If you need me to run errands, just let me know."

Although the plague has not yet been eliminated and the prescription has not been developed, as soon as the senior brother came, his worries were naturally gone, and Lin Jue immediately felt much more relaxed.

This is what Fifth Senior Brother is capable of.

Everything that happens after that is also the fifth senior brother’s business.

During the day, the fifth brother used acupuncture to cure several people who were seriously ill and were about to die.

Each person vomited two or three liters of snake.

However, in addition to being proficient in medical skills, the Fifth Brother also knew how to treat people. When he administered the needles, he did not make people feel better, but made them suffer so much that they even felt like they were dead for a while, and the wailing sound spread throughout the whole place.

Coupled with "Prescriptions are being developed", some words such as "If you can be cured by acupuncture, you are not sure whether you will get sick again in the city", "Acupuncture can only be done when you are seriously ill and dying", etc., you can guarantee that everyone who comes to him for acupuncture will be able to use it.

It is a dying person, not the dignitaries in the city or the common people looting.

The needle tip is used to save lives, and there is more time to prepare prescriptions.

At night, Lin Jue accompanied his fifth brother to study the yin and yang theory of plague and medicine, and another figure flashed outside the door.

Just when I was alert, I took a closer look and saw that it was the military attaché from the City God's Temple who was patrolling at night and quietly came to report:

"Thanks to the real person who informed us about the epidemic ghost, and also thanks to the real person who forced the city god to report to heaven and inform other city gods. Currently, among the surrounding counties, except our Cuiwei, only Liuyun County is in trouble. After hearing this, the other counties have banned the entry and exit of the people. The city god's place

The gods have also been out in force, guarding day and night. To this day, although the plague ghost has not been found, there is no sign of the spread of the plague."

The fifth senior brother is still focused on understanding the yin and yang of pharmacology.

Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

It is a meritorious deed that the county magistrates from various places can be alerted and avoid suffering in one city. It is not in vain that I have to suffer so much and come to report it.

This news was undoubtedly a comfort to him.
