"Uncle, if you don't quit smoking and drinking, it's useless to take medicine," Wang Yao said.
This was only because he was from the village and was an old man. If it were anyone else, he would have chased them away.
"Open a server for me." The old man was not happy to see Wang Yao refuse to do it.
How could a doctor refuse a patient's request?
"You can go back. I won't prescribe medicine for you," Wang Yao said.
"This child!" The old man was not happy. He stood up, flung his sleeves, and left angrily.
"Hey, old man, what's the matter? What a temper! "When Jia Zizai came in, she happened to see the old man leave angrily.
"He's sick and needs medicine, but I didn't prescribe it," Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Why?"
"If you don't change your bad habits, taking medicine is useless and a waste," Wang Yao said.
"What's the matter?"
"Well, there's something." Jia Zizai took out her phone.
"Take a look at this."
There was a message on the phone. It was gossip.
"The Valley of Thousands of Medicine?"
"Yes, this place is in southern Yunnan. Last time you told me about it, I also had someone investigate it. Recently, it has been quite lively there. In less than a month, more than 20 people have died. I heard that the higher-ups know about it."
"Are these things related to the Valley of Thousands of Medicine?"
"They were all poisoned to death," Jia Zizai said. "The two suspects are from that place."
"Oh, OK, I know. If possible, ask your friends to pay more attention to it and contact me if there is any news."
"OK, I know, Sir," Wang Yao said. "The Valley of Thousands of Medicine is far south, thousands of miles away. Why do you pay attention to them?"
"Thousands of miles away, people have come to seek medical treatment," Wang Yao said. "Is that Secretary Guo with the county magistrate?"
"Yes, his name is Guo Zhenghe. He is a third-generation official. His father is the governor of this province."
"I've treated his illness before, so I have a relationship with him. Although Secretary Guo is young, he has a lot of ideas. He can introduce people from the other side to come here to see a doctor. Maybe he will do something else," Wang Yao said.
Pay close attention and take precautions.
"I got it." After listening to Wang Yao, Jia Zizai knew what to do.
After chatting for a while, Jia Zizai left the clinic. After going out, she immediately contacted her friends in southern Yunnan and asked them to pay attention to the news of He County and the Valley of Thousands of Medicine.
When they went home for lunch, Zhang Xiuying asked about what had happened in the morning. It turned out that the old man from the lower village had come to their house and said something unpleasant to Zhang Xiuying.
"Mom, don't be angry."
"Why would I be angry? I'm not familiar with him. That man just knew your dad and said a few words to him," Zhang Xiuying said with a smile.
Wang Yao nodded and did not speak.
"Is he very sick?"
"He is very sick. If he continues like this, I don't think he will live for more than three years."
"Is it that serious?" Zhang Xiuying was shocked.
"Illness is one thing," Wang Yao said. "The key problem is that he knows he is sick, but he still doesn't change his bad habits. The key is that he doesn't listen to others. Such a person doesn't know how to cherish his body. He will only get sicker."
"Where is my dad?"
"Someone from the village went to treat your father to a meal."
"Who is it?"
"Wang Yijie."
"Him? He doesn't usually have much contact with our family. Why is he suddenly treating us?" Wang Yao asked out of curiosity.
"Well, I don't know. Your dad didn't want to go, but he came five or six times this morning. They are from the same village, so it would be inappropriate if he didn't go. So, your dad went, but he didn't go empty-handed. He brought two boxes of cigarettes."
"Well, that'll do," Wang Yao said with a smile. "We won't be able to use all those things for a while anyway."
People like Tian Yuantu and Sun Yunsheng would always bring gifts like cigarettes, alcohol, and tea when they came. Many little drops made a mickle. At the moment, half of his house was filled. He usually gave some to his brother-in-law and used them at home. He had no use for them at all.
Thousands of miles away in southern Yunnan …
In the Medicine King Village …
That was the village where the King Pharmacist of Miaojiang lived, so it was called the Medicine King Village.
Miao Chengtang was able to get out of bed in less than a day. When he was changing his dressing in the morning, he found a wound on his chest. It was as thin as a red line and about two inches long.
"The King of Medicine couldn't have opened my chest, right?" He pondered.
The one who changed his dressing was Wu San's student, Ah Cheng.
"Does your chest still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore," Miao Chengtang said. "I just don't have much strength left. By the way, how did the King Pharmacist treat me? Did he open my chest?"
"I don't know." The man shook his head.
"Ah, thanks." Miao Chengtang smiled awkwardly.
After changing his dressing, Ah Cheng left. Miao Tianchuan came in from outside.
"How do you feel?"
"I just don't have much strength left," Miao Chengtang said. "My chest hurts a little, but other than that, I'm fine."
"That's good to hear," Miao Tianchuan said. "Qingshan went to ask the King Pharmacist. The curse has been removed. We'll leave as soon as you feel better."
"Sure."
They were still worried about staying there. They were in southern Yunnan, which was only a few hundred miles away from the village. It was neither near nor far.
"Stay here and recover," Miao Tianchuan said. "Let Qingshan take care of you. I need to go out for a bit today. I'll be back tomorrow morning."
"Go out? What for?"
"So that you can rest and recover," Miao Tianchuan said. "Keep the Miaoxi River busy."
"You're not going to the village, are you? Don't go!"
"Of course I'm not going to the village. I'm not an idiot. Alright, just rest and recover."
Miao Tianchuan left the village. No one knew where he went, leaving the two of them there in fear.
Qushan County, which was hundreds of miles away, was only a few dozen miles away from the Valley of Thousands of Medicine. It was the closest county to the valley.
That afternoon, something major happened in the county. More than a dozen people were poisoned in a restaurant, and they were in critical condition. The county hospital was helpless and sent them directly to the city. Two people died on the way there. The county and the city took the matter very seriously. At the same time, they immediately thought of the poisoning that had happened in the neighboring He County some time ago.
"F * ck, why are they here?"
The person in charge of the county was anxious and angry. He slammed the table and cursed.
"What? Qushan County?" Lu Xiufeng and Yang Guanfeng, who were in a deadlock in He County, were very surprised when they heard the news.
"This is crazy!"
After receiving the news, they rushed to Qushan County in the shortest time possible. By the time they arrived, Qushan County had already taken action. The whole county was under martial law. With the lesson learned from the neighboring county, they naturally took it seriously, especially the public security department. They opened their eyes wide. They did not expect to solve the case in a short time. They were afraid that the problem would continue to grow in a short time. It did. Two of the dozen people who went to the city died.
"Damn it!"
After hearing the news, Yang Guanfeng slammed the table and smoked five cigarettes in a row.
"Report, we found a suspect," Yang Guanfeng said.
"What? Where?" Lu Xiufeng suddenly jumped out of his chair.
They sped all the way in the car and ran through the few traffic lights in the county. They went straight to the scene where the suspect was surrounded by armed police.
"Inside?"
"Yes."
"How did you find him?"
"Someone nearby found someone inside," Yang Guanfeng said. "He took a peek and found a body inside. It was still bleeding. There was another person who seemed to be injured. He called the police."
"A body? Injured?"
"Yes."
"Good, very good."
"Get ready to attack," Yang Guanfeng said. "Try to catch him alive."
The heavily armed armed police stormed into the house and saw two people on the ground. They had no ability to resist.
One person was in a pool of blood. It seemed that he was dead. The other person was in a coma.
"Well, what's the situation?"
The danger they imagined did not happen.
"Forensic doctor, quick!"
Soon, forensic doctors came over. They had followed Yang Guanfeng and the others. The experts from the provincial capital were all experts in this field.
"This one is dead, and this one is still alive. Be careful with the things on them. Don't touch them."
