Chapter 1472: Not the Plague (4)
"Jin City has plenty of people struck by the plague; why haven’t you gone to tend to them?" Yang Ruxin sneered, "Also, do you not know that men and women should not touch each other? With so many people here, when did it become your turn to care for them?"
"I have studied medical skills..."
"So have you cured the plague? My husband is still lying there..."
"When so many military doctors have not cured him, isn’t it normal that I can’t either? At least I have managed to get Lord Gu’s temperature back to normal..."
"You really are..." Yang Ruxin shook her head, deciding not to waste more words on her, only glancing at Shadow One, "Gu Qiao, whoever idles away their time here with prattle, throw them out. I need quiet." Then, she turned and went into the inner room.
"Yes," Shadow One answered with a salute.
Li Mingyin wanted to say something more but ultimately remained silent, only turning to sit down on the nearby chair, truly disbelieving that this village girl could actually cure someone.
Yang Ruxin returned to the bedside, focusing her mind to begin scanning Gu Qingheng; from the moment she entered, she was certain that what afflicted Gu Qingheng was not the plague, since none of the people caring for him showed any signs of infection. Therefore, she must identify the cause before she could treat him effectively. Fortunately, even though her pulse-reading was not up to par, she possessed special abilities.
After scanning, she didn’t find any poisonous gas or the like inside Gu Qingheng’s body; however, she did discover an additional little bug—more precisely, a poisonous insect.
Originally, both her and Gu Qingheng’s bodies were tempered by Dao Xuzi’s medicinal concoctions, and while it’s somewhat exaggerated to say immune to all poisons, most poisons indeed could not affect them.
