Chapter 302 - Second Brother Is Sick

When Su Xiaolu arrived, Constable Zhu found her a table and put it down. Then, he shouted, “Come here and queue up.”

When some people saw this, they pretended not to hear it. She was so young. Who was she trying to fool?

She did not look like someone who could treat a serious illness.

Su Chong saw Su Xiaolu and heard Constable Zhu’s shout. No one moved. He walked towards Su Xiaolu.

Constable Zhu had already taken the register and was about to register.

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Hua and asked, “Name. How do you feel now?”

“Su Hua, my throat is sore and itchy. I really want to cough.”

When Su Hua said this, he had to swallow a few times before he could stop himself from coughing.

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Hua worriedly. She asked Su Hua to sit down and extended her hand.

Su Hua sat down and reached out his hand. Su Xiaolu reached out to take his pulse. Su Xiaolu focused her attention and sensed Su Hua’s body carefully. There was a strange smell lingering at the tip of her nose, making Su Xiaolu very uncomfortable.

Her sense of smell was naturally different from ordinary people’s. Ordinary illnesses would not make her feel so uncomfortable.

Su Hua was in a much better condition than the others, but he was also infected with the plague. He also had that smell on him.

Perhaps it was because he had drunk a lot of spiritual spring water since he was young, but his symptoms acted up slower than others.

The symptoms were also slower to show.

Su Xiaolu kept her hand on Su Hua’s pulse. After a while, she said, “The initial symptoms are extremely similar to a cold. He experiences pain when swallowing, a white tongue, cold sweat, and other symptoms. His pulse is only slightly weak.”

Constable Zhu noted it down.

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Hua with worry in her eyes.

Su Hua smiled and said gently, “Xiaolu, I felt a little unwell last night. I have these symptoms today. I’ll be fine after taking some medicine. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

Su Hua was now glad that he did not let Su Chong and the others get near him. It was a plague, so it was enough to infect him alone.

“I won’t let anything happen to you. Father and Mother are still waiting for you at home.”

Su Xiaolu’s gaze was firm. She took Su Hua’s pulse and pushed her Internal force into his body.

Su Hua retracted his hand.

Constable Zhu was a little surprised. “Doctor Su, you know each other?”

Su Xiaolu nodded. “This is my second brother.”

Constable Zhu looked at Su Hua and thought to himself, No wonder Su Xiaolu recommended herself. It was all for her second brother.

The people who were first infected with the plague had already died. The plague was coming at them aggressively. The divine doctor must be doing this for her brother, even if not for others.

Constable Zhu recorded Su Hua’s conditions and did not ask further.

After registering, Su Hua could go down and drink the medicine.

Because all the symptoms were the same as the cold, the medicine brewed was mostly for the cold. There was also a queue for each person to have a bowl.

People who were just infected were no different from ordinary people, so many people took medicine and helped them. Su Hua was no exception.

The doctors only stopped when all the new people in the area had been treated.

There were more than ten doctors in the Ji Shi Hall. After seeing them, they prepared to go back and discuss.

Constable Zhu brought Su Xiaolu over.

On the way, Su Xiaolu heard their discussion.

“The symptoms haven’t changed at all. It’s the same for those who were just infected with the plague. There’s nothing we can do. Let’s control it ourselves and wait for the people from the royal court to come.”

“Sigh… Everything was fine, and there were no signs at all. How did the epidemic happen? I really don’t understand. I don’t understand at all. I don’t know the source, and I can’t figure out where to start.”

“That’s right, that’s right… Those plague medicines from the past didn’t work either. Sigh…”

Every doctor frowned and couldn’t find a solution. They could only prescribe medicine to treat the cold.

Constable Zhu looked at Su Xiaolu. She was the successor of the divine doctor. Didn’t she see anything?

When they returned to the main room, people noticed Su Xiaolu.

Hong Zheng looked at Constable Zhu in confusion and asked, “Constable Zhu, who is this lady?”

Constable Zhu said seriously, “Doctor Su is the successor of the divine doctors of Minggu. She’s here to help in the plague. She only hopes to find out the cause of the plague as soon as possible and save the people.”

This time, not only was Hong Zheng surprised, but everyone else was as well.

The old doctor sized up Su Xiaolu. “She’s the heir of Minggu Medical Valley? She doesn’t look much smarter than me. Why did the old man choose her?”

After saying that, the old doctor stroked his beard and said to Su Xiaolu, “I saw that you saw some patients just now. Tell me, what’s the reason for this plague?”

“I don’t know either. Apart from the symptoms of a cold, people who are beginning to contract the plague gradually become weak.”

Su Xiaolu told the truth. She was also thinking about what caused the plague.

Generally speaking, the appearance of plagues was usually caused by floods, droughts, or plagues. Extreme weather caused too many deaths, and corpses floated everywhere without anyone burying them. Only then could it cause plagues.

Furongzhou had a good year and the people were rich. There were no corpses everywhere. How did the plague happen?

“Aren’t you a divine doctor? Young lady, a divine doctor can treat any illness. If you’re really a divine doctor, take out your identity card and let us take a look.”

The old doctor was a little disdainful and suspicious. In the early years, he wanted to acknowledge the divine doctor as his master, but the old man said that his aptitude was ordinary, but he was clearly very outstanding.

Old Wu had long told the world that he had a disciple. As for who his disciple was, one would know after seeing the token.

The old doctor immediately stared at Su Xiaolu sharply.

Su Xiaolu took out the tablet unhurriedly. The old doctor took it and looked at it carefully.

After reading it, he returned it to Su Xiaolu. He moved his mouth. “You really can’t tell anything?”

There was no problem with her identity. The problem was Su Xiaolu’s medical skills.

The other doctors also looked at Su Xiaolu with doubts.

Hong Zheng frowned and said to the old doctor, “Master, is she really the successor of the divine doctor?”

Hong Zheng asked the question in his mind. The most qualified doctor in the Ji Shi Hall was the old man in front of him. Everyone in the Ji Shi Hall knew that the old doctor respected the divine doctors of Minggu the most. Everyone often heard him say that the divine doctors of Minggu were legendary figures. He wanted to become a disciple but was rejected miserably. However, he still shamelessly learned some superficial knowledge, which was already very impressive.

The divine doctor was a person that all medical practitioners yearned to reach. As the successor of the divine doctor, Su Xiaolu was not as godly as they had imagined. It was as if their dream had shattered.

The old doctor looked at Su Xiaolu in confusion and said to Hong Zheng, “There’s naturally no problem with her identity, but it’s hard to say if she can be a divine doctor.”

Su Xiaolu smiled faintly and said calmly, “I don’t have to explain or prove it. As long as the old man confirms that I’m the only heir, that’s enough.”

As for the plague, she would do her best. Su Xiaolu looked at Constable Zhu and said, “Constable Zhu, if someone passes away, don’t incinerate them first. I want to dissect their corpses.”
