Everyone had their own secrets and he should respect Shang Qinghua’s. So, he chose not to question him.
"I’ve brought everything you asked for. Just do your best. If..."
"You don’t trust ?" Yue Mingxuan raised his eyebrow and asked.
Shang Qinghua shook his head. "It’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s just that you need to understand that many things are beyond human control."
Yue Mingxuan smiled. "If I, Yue Mingxuan, step in, how could there be a patient I cannot cure?"
Shang Qinghua gently stroked Yue Mingxuan’s hair with affection.
In the past, he had truly underestimated Yue Mingxuan’s abilities.
He had never expected Yue Mingxuan’s dical skills to reach such a high level.
Moreover, Yue Mingxuan was also very kind-hearted.
Earlier, Shang Qinghua had not planned to let Yue Mingxuan co, nor had he intended to involve the people from Silver Needle Sect.
He still did not know how that child managed to escape—this place should have been sealed off.
And the poison here according to the imperial physicians was corpse poison.
Shang Qinghua frowned.
Could it be that soone had died nearby?
Normally, corpse poison would not spread widely, but this ti, its appearance was extrely strange.
"Have you considered that this corpse poison is so unusual because soone created it on purpose?" Yue Mingxuan asked.
Although Shang Qinghua had the sa thought, he did not say it directly. He simply nodded. "I do think this outbreak is very abnormal. This kind of situation does not usually happen."
Yue Mingxuan knew he was referring to the large-scale outbreak of the poison.
In ancient tis, people were very wary of corpses.
How could corpse poison spread so easily?
He thought of many possibilities, but still could not find any answers.
Shang Qinghua comforted him, saying, "You don’t need to worry too much about this. This is my responsibility."
"Your responsibility is also mine. There is no difference," Yue Mingxuan waved his hand. Then he realized what he had just said and quickly explained, "No, I an, finding the root of the problem is also part of a doctor’s duty."
Shang Qinghua smiled and did not expose him.
He knew Yue Mingxuan was feeling shy, so he did not press further.
Still, Yue Mingxuan’s words showed that he no longer saw him as an outsider.
This was a very good start, he thought.
He was truly happy that Yue Mingxuan could think this way.
"I understand what you an. Let’s find the source of this corpse poison as soon as possible. But before that, we still need to completely eliminate it."
Yue Mingxuan nodded.
With penicillium now available, treating the corpse poison had beco much easier.
After taking it, at most, people would only have diarrhea.
Having diarrhea was far better than being sick, after all.
However, considering that penicillin could sotis cause allergic reactions, Yue Mingxuan could only sigh.
Fortunately, this was taken orally and not injected, so the chance of an allergic reaction was not very high.
In this world, there was no perfect solution that satisfied everyone.
Yue Mingxuan could only take care of the majority.
Even though the majority were people, the small minority were also people. But he had no other choice.
He hated his own helplessness a little, but he had already saved many lives.
"This epidemic has been quickly suppressed thanks to the involvent of Silver Needle Sect," the reporting official said.
When he saw Yue Mingxuan’s achievents, he found them unbelievable.
In the past, every epidemic would claim countless lives. But this ti, Yue Mingxuan had acted quickly and fewer than dozens of people had died.
Once an epidemic spread, it usually killed thousands or even tens of thousands.
Yet Yue Mingxuan who is relying on his outstanding dical skills had saved so many people.
The citizens of Huohua City were extrely grateful to him, but he only smiled and said that it was simply what he should do.
He was the honorary sect master of Silver Needle Sect.
Even if it was not an official position, he still had to take responsibility.
Being able to control this epidemic was sothing he believed he was supposed to do.
"Since this ti was so successful, why don’t we celebrate?" Gongsun Xing had also co along this ti.
He took off his mask and smiled happily.
Now that Yue Mingxuan had led Silver Needle Sect to resolve the epidemic, those old elders in the sect, even if they did not want to acknowledge him before, could no longer deny him.
After all, his achievents were clear for everyone to see.
"You all go ahead. I still need to investigate further," Shang Qinghua said while waving his hand before quickly leaving.
His lightness skill was quite good at least Yue Mingxuan could not catch up to him.
"Since he’s gone, let’s go. The rest of us can celebrate," Yue Mingxuan said with a smile, but he felt worried inside.
Shang Qinghua had left alone and there was no telling what kind of danger he might face.
"This corpse poison was indeed very strange. Without you, I doubt Silver Needle Sect could have achieved such good results," Gongsun Xing said with a smile. "So tonight, if I bring up making you the sect master again, no one should object."
If there had been people who opposed it before, now there were truly none.
"Since your ability has been proven, I believe everyone in the sect will follow your command," Gongsun Xing continued.
However, Yue Mingxuan did not feel proud of this at all.
What interested him most in Silver Needle Sect were the dicinal herbs, the prescriptions and the notes left behind by Gongsun Xing’s father.
Those were the things he most urgently wanted to see.
"The other things don’t matter. First, let’s properly bury your father," Yue Mingxuan said.
He still felt very apologetic toward Gongsun Xing’s father.
Originally, the man’s remains had been intact.
But after Yue Mingxuan saw that letter and opened the coffin, he had ended up disturbing the body.
