In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me! Chapter 323: Into the Plague City

"My teacher once used this thod to treat patients, so I rembered it."

Well... his teacher had indeed explained the principles of penicillin before.

Saying it like this was not exactly wrong.

Feeling slightly guilty, Yue Mingxuan scratched his head again and added, "You could say this is a thod that outsiders don’t know about."

Gongsun Xing nodded. "I have never seen any records of such a thod. However, regarding the plague you ntioned, Silver Needle Sect cannot just stand by and do nothing."

Yue Mingxuan nodded. "Silver Needle Sect has always been a place where the best doctors gather. There are countless dicinal herbs here. If we cannot save people at a critical mont, then there is no aning in joining this place at all."

"But the moldy food you ntioned earlier is not easy to find. In that case..."

"It can often be found in spoiled vegetable soup, but that thod takes ti. Right now, we don’t have that kind of ti. We need to use another thod," Yue Mingxuan said. "From what I saw, the child’s symptoms look like corpse poison. It should be treated with glutinous rice to draw out the toxin. But at the mont, we probably don’t have enough glutinous rice either."

"The glutinous rice in Silver Needle Sect is indeed not enough to save an entire city. But Mingxuan, are you certain that it is corpse poison?"

Yue Mingxuan nodded.

He was absolutely certain.

The child’s body clearly showed all the signs of being poisoned by corpse toxin.

He did not know the cause yet, but if he wanted to uncover the truth, he would have to go to the city and see for himself.

"Where did you co from?" Yue Mingxuan asked the child.

"Huohua City," the child replied softly.

There was a hint of grievance and distrust in his voice.

He spoke quietly as if he did not believe that Yue Mingxuan could truly help him.

But after all, it was Yue Mingxuan who had cured the poison in his body.

Perhaps that beautiful older brother really did have such ability.

"Huohua City..." Yue Mingxuan nodded.

He suddenly rembered that earlier that morning, when Shang Qinghua had left, he seed to have said, "I’ll be in Huohua City recently. Don’t co looking for . Things there are a bit unstable."

So this was the reason.

Yue Mingxuan fell silent.

The child in front of him did not trust his dical skills and he did not mind that.

But if even Shang Qinghua did not trust him, that would be sothing he could not accept.

He was a doctor.

His duty was to save lives.

Perhaps Shang Qinghua thought that going there would put him at risk of infection.

But whose life was more valuable than another’s?

He was a doctor and the disaster victims were patients.

He had the right to choose whether to go or not.

But that choice belonged to him alone.

No one else had the right to decide for him and now, he chose to go.

He told Gongsun Xing about his decision and then made an announcent within Silver Needle Sect asking if anyone would accompany him.

The result proved that although the elders of Silver Needle Sect were sowhat rigid in their ways, when faced with such a situation, they did not hesitate at all and agreed imdiately.

Yue Mingxuan suddenly felt a deep sense of relief.

In truth, he did not think that becoming the leader of Silver Needle Sect was very important.

What truly mattered was that when difficulties arose, everyone could work together as one.

That was what mattered most.

When Yue Mingxuan led a group of people to knock open the gates of Huohua City, he clearly saw the look of shock on Shang Qinghua’s face.

"Didn’t I tell you not to co?" Shang Qinghua hurried forward when he saw him, but then he seed to rember that he might carry sothing infectious.

He quickly pulled his hand back.

"But I couldn’t help it. I had to co," Yue Mingxuan said with an apologetic smile.

Then he told Shang Qinghua everything that had happened that morning.

After listening, Shang Qinghua could only sigh.

A plague was sothing he truly had no way to deal with.

Even though he had brought many imperial physicians from the Imperial dical Bureau to handle the situation, how could such a plague be easily resolved?

"This ti, when the doctors from Silver Needle Sect use supplies, you can’t charge gold," Yue Mingxuan said with a smile.

Shang Qinghua understood what he ant and replied, "Alright, alright. This ti, I’ll cover all the expenses. You don’t need to worry about the cost."

"Good. Then can you help find so moldy things?"

Hearing Yue Mingxuan’s request, Shang Qinghua was puzzled.

Even so, he still followed Yue Mingxuan’s instructions.

He had no idea about the use of mold, but he knew that in matters of dicine, Yue Mingxuan’s knowledge was far beyond his own.

Moreover, this corpse poison spread very easily.

Yue Mingxuan decided to borrow an idea from later generations—a kind of "protective equipnt"—to ensure the safety of the elders of Silver Needle Sect.

Those elders were the treasures of the sect.

If they were to beco infected so easily, the loss would be too great.

Yue Mingxuan would never allow such a thing to happen.

Although cloth face coverings existed in this era, Yue Mingxuan felt they were not very effective.

He wanted to make a real "mask," and he also needed so gloves.

He did not want anything to happen to the doctors from Silver Needle Sect.

He asked Shang Qinghua for a large amount of gauze and made gauze masks out of it. Then, he also asked Shang Qinghua to have many gloves sewn.

He guessed that the forces Shang Qinghua used were not from within the imperial palace, because ordinary people would not be able to gather so much moldy food or produce so many gloves in such a short ti.

However, he did not ask about it.
