Capítulo 1174: Chapter 1126: The Daoist Temple Is in Serious Trouble (Part 3)
The Zheng family finally changed their expressions.
If the plague breaks out in Li City, the consequences would be unimaginable, and the local officials will face the sa troubles.
“I have always heard that the Temple Master of Qingping Temple is a Daoist doctor with dual cultivation and a high-level Taoist. I hope she can develop a divine pill to save the suffering people.” Old Mrs. Zheng saluted her and said to the people around her, “Let’s go back.”
They turned back to their guest courtyard and closed the door.
Taoist Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, “At least they understand.”
Qin Liuxi said, “But it’s related to their own interests, so they had to restrain themselves. Let’s not talk about this. Elders, please go to the back hall first to check the pulses of the temple disciples and the host helping in the kitchen.”
The two Taoists cupped their hands and left.
Qin Liuxi thought for a mont, then turned back to the guest courtyard of the won, removed the silver needle from Miss Li, felt her pulse, and put it down.
This girl, besides having the plague, also had pyemia, and she had a miscarriage once that wasn’t properly treated, making her naturally weak, which was very troubleso.
“Do you know she had a miscarriage?” Qin Liuxi looked at the Li Family mber.
Li Family mber flinched, her eyes evasive, “She was just bullied.”
Qin Liuxi looked at the woman’s face, faintly carrying the air of death, and said, “Not to ntion she has the plague, she also has pyemia, and is frail. She might not make it through. If she doesn’t, she can only be cremated.”
The Li Family mber let out a sorrowful cry, her face turning pale, her lips trembling.
Outside, Qing Yuan’s voice sounded, the dicine was ready.
Qin Liuxi personally went to take it, made the mother and daughter drink it, and instructed the Li Family mber to rest quietly, then left.
“You won’t abandon us, will you?” the Li Family mber asked mournfully behind her, “This is a Daoist temple, with the divine above. You won’t throw us out to die, will you?”
Qin Liuxi turned back, “Is that why you brought her here to hide? Because a Daoist temple is part of the Buddhist Sect and won’t ignore those in need?”
Li Family mber said nothing, her face full of panic.

“You’ve already contracted the disease, so I won’t drive you out, for fear you’d spread it to more people, and I’ll do my best to treat you. But if you can’t be saved, I will burn you. It’s the only way to isolate the contagion. So, your fate depends on human efforts and heavenly decree.”
Li Family mber slumped to the ground, those final words echoing in her ears. When she looked up again, the person was already gone.
Qin Liuxi left the courtyard, imdiately perford a Purification Technique on herself, and upon seeing Daoist Lin and others helping in the pulse checking of the temple people, she went to the courtyard where the Zheng family resided.
Inside, there was the sound of sobbing. After being announced, she entered and saw the servant woman with a handkerchief in her mouth, bound hands and feet, pressed into a corner, while Old Mrs. Zheng and others had faces of cold frost.
Qin Liuxi said, “I’ll check your pulse, Old Lady.”
Old Mrs. Zheng’s expression ward, “Thank you.”
Qin Liuxi felt her pulse first, went through a thorough diagnostic process, and quickly moved to the next person.
The Zheng family had just arrived yesterday, intending to conduct a Daoist ceremony for the Zheng family elder and rest a little, but they chose the wrong day and encountered this unfortunate situation.
They ca late and did not et the Li Family mother and daughter, except for one or two servants who had encountered the Li Family mber and exchanged a few words. Initially, they dared not say anything, but Qin Liuxi, as knowledgeable as she was, instantly saw through their lies and ruthlessly exposed them. Fortunately, they swore to the heavens that they only spoke a few words, with no other contact, or they’d have been beaten.
“For the ti being, you and your group are fine. Check your pulses again tomorrow, and if you’re still fine, you may go down the mountain.” Qin Liuxi noted that while their appearances showed so misfortune, there were no signs of illness yet.
Boo hoo hoo.
The servant squird on her knees, sweating anxiously.
Old Mrs. Zheng glared at her coldly, “Temple Master, is it possible to treat the disease on this servant woman?”
“Caught early, it’s not yet incurable.” Qin Liuxi approached, not disdainful, felt her pulse, and said, “I’ll prescribe a formula, once the dicine is brewed, drink it, and after going down the mountain, continue the dicine for a few doses.”
The servant woman listened, tears flowing gratefully as she looked at Qin Liuxi with gratitude.
Qin Liuxi left that courtyard, perford another Purification Technique, and, upon looking up, seed to see sothing that urged her to leap to a higher spot, examining the foot of the mountain, seeing sickly miasma flowing above that location, causing her brow to twitch intensely.
Qing Yuan staggered over, Qin Liuxi jumped down, asking, “Why the panic?”
Qing Yuan wiped the sweat from her forehead, saying, “Just now, a devotee ca to the mountain gate, saying that two people died at the foot of the mountain, their bodies turned a dreadful purple-black. Look at this…”
Qin Liuxi’s face darkened. Their Daoist temple had run into big trouble.
