“What did you do to me?” Li Zucai asked in panic .
“Don’t worry, it was only temporary . You will feel better after a while . I will prescribe some medicine for you in the next room,” Wang Yao said .
He only temporarily blocked some of the acupuncture meridians in the man’s legs to make them unable to move normally . As for the poison produced by insects, antidote herbs could be widely used for detoxification . Miasma grass could be used for avoiding mephitis and poisonous insects .
Wang Yao used these two types of medicine herbs to make up the prescription . The effect would be concentrated and strong .
The medicinal soup in pot was greenish and had a bit pungent taste .
“Come on, drink it . ” Wang Yao poured a bowl of the medicine soup .
“What is this?” Li Zu was somewhat worried .
“Medicine,” Wang Yao said .
Li Zucai drank it up .
Wang Yao sat quietly looking at him . “How do you feel?”
“Nothing, that is… Oh, my stomach hurts!” After less than five minutes, Li Zucai felt something stirring in his stomach . The pain was spreading . Soon, he felt that his chest, arms, his legs hurt, and head hurt . His whole body hurt . “It hurts, hurts, hurts . ”
It was prickling and stabbing pain . He fell to the ground and couldn’t help shouting out . “Ah! What did you give me to drink?”
“Medicine . ” Wang Yao held his wrist . Li Zucai’s pulse was fluctuating like drumming . His Qi and blood were extremely strong .
Li Zucai opened his mouth and spit out a dark mucus . It emitted a terrible stench that quickly filled the room . Sweating profusely, he gasped for breath . He clothes were wet because of the pain .
Slowly, the pain in the body faded, but his stomach and limbs still hurt . His headache was relieved a little .
“How are you feeling?” Wang Yao asked .
“It hurts . My whole body still hurts, but it doesn’t hurt as bad,” Li Zucai said .
The sudden pain almost killed him .
“We need to wait for longer,” Wang Yao said .
“I will clean it for you,” Li Zucai said .
He endured the pain, took the tools, and cleaned up the things he had just spat on the ground . He looked at what he spit out . It was disgusting like ink and mud soup .
“Why did I spit out such things?” he asked .
He felt better not looking at it . After one glance of it, he felt something began to turn over again in the stomach and rushed out . “No, I need to go to the toilet . ”
He spit out a lot of black sticky material in the toilet . Finally, he spit out the acid water and blood, which scared him .
“Xiao Yao, tell me truth . What happened to me . Am I infected by Chen Jiagui?” His face was blanketed in fear, especially considering the way Chen Jiagui had been . “Am I going to be like that?”
“You are poisoned or infected by Chen Jiagui,” Wang Yao said .
“Just because I was bitten by him?” Li Zucai asked .
“Yes,” Wang Yao said . “His illness is highly contagious . ”
This what worried Wang Yao the most . “How did he get this strange disease?”
“What about Hao Ze?” Li Zucai began to worry about his son .
“He’s fine . If you still feel worried, you can ask his grandmother to see if he has a fever or something else that is uncomfortable,” Wang Yao said .
“I will ask my mom to send him over . Would you please give him a check?” Li Zucai asked .
“All right,” Wang Yao said .
By this time, Chen Ying and Chen Zhou had already sprinkled a thick layer of lime on all the places contaminated by Chen Jiagui’s blood .
“Sister, what do you think what happened to that person?” Chen Zhou asked .
“He might be mad,” Chen Ying said .
Finally, they arrived at Chen Jiagui’s home .
“How is that mad man?” Chen Zhou asked .
Although he was scared, he climbed up the wall . He could Chen Jiagui sleeping on the bed and then suddenly get up . He limped to the yard and wanted to come out without any reason .
“Xiao Zhou, go to tell Dr . Wang . I will stay here to watch him,” Chen Ying decisively said .
“Well, be careful, sister . ” Chen Zhou quickly ran toward the clinic .
In the clinic, Li Zucai’s mother came with her little grandson .
“My son, are you OK?” she asked Li Zucai .
“I’m fine . ” He actually did feel much better . Only the place where he was bitten by Chen Jiagui was still painful and burning .
Wang Yao carefully checked the little boy . “The child is fine . ”
“That is a relief,” Li Zucai said .
Chen Zhou suddenly ran into the clinic . “Sir, the madman stood up again and wanted to go out . ”
“What? Stood up again?” Wang Yao was surprised . In order to prevent him from standing up and infecting other people, Wang Yao had temporarily cut off several meridians in his body . Somehow, he was still able to act . “I will go there and see . ”
“After returning home, you need to watch yourself closely . If you find that you have symptoms such as fever, come to me immediately . ” Wang Yao did not forget to advise Li Zucai before leaving directly for Chen Jiagui’s yard .
At this time, the crazed man seemed to want to go forward . His face had begun to darken . His naked upper body has also become black . Blood vessels could be seen protruding outwards . It all appeared a bit like mummification .
“Sister, he looked like a zombie!” Chen Zhou whispered to his sister .
“Hush! Don’t come over here,” she replied .
Wang Yao’s closely observed Chen Jiagui’s physical condition . He had no consciousness and acted slowly because of the blocked meridians . His skinny body showed that the intrusive exogenous evil was rapidly destroying his body .
Down!
Wang Yao pressed down although nothing was in hand . Bang! Chen Jiagui fell to the ground . An invisible pressure suppressed him, making him unable to move .
Wang Yao bent over to feel his pulse . “I can feel the pulse . It sometimes vanishes and sometimes reappears, and sometimes it’s strong and sometimes it’s weak . His viscera are extremely weak . He is like an extremely sick person who is dying . ”
Wang Yao carefully checked his body and remembered something . He turned to the brother and sister outside and said, “This yard needs to be all sprinkled with lime . ”
“OK,” Chen Ying said .
They entered the yard and sprinkled a lot of lime powder .
Wang Yao was deeply concerned . How was he infected with the terrible disease? Is it from outside or in the village?
He carried Chen Jiagui by one hand and threw him in a room . He wrenched his joints on his body . “Lay off and stay here . Don’t go out . ”
From the current situation, he was not like a person at all .
“Mr . Wang, it is finished,” Chen Zhou said .
“Well, thank you,” Wang Yao said .
“You are too polite . ” Chen Zhou smiled . “Sir, what disease does he have to look so horrible?”
“I have not figured it out . It is a terrible microbial infection . His organs, brain, and body tissues have been destroyed . To some extent, he’s already dead,” Wang Yao said . “And, the disease is very contagious . The bitten person has been infected . ”
Thanks to timely treatment, it wouldn’t take long for Li Zucai to have become like Chen Jiagui .
“If you feel any uncomfortable, come to me quickly,” Wang Yao said .
“Got it,” the brother and sister said .
“Wait, come with me . ” He brought them to the clinic and asked them to drink a cup of medicine that had just been prepared .
“This is the medicine the bitten person drank . You’d better take it for prevention . ” In addition to giving them a drink, he also filled a bottle with it so they could take it home .
“If you find any people or animals like him in the village, tell me in right away,” Wang Yao said .
“OK, we will Mr . Wang,” Chen Ying said .
Wang Yao left the clinic with them . He first returned to his home and told his parents about the situation . He told them be as careful as possible and not go out . He also had them drink the medicine for prevention .
“What disease is so powerful?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
“I do not know,” Wang Yao said . “I am going to go to the brigade house to notify the villagers . ”
“Well, good,” Wang Fenghua said .
