Chapter 628: Chapter 385: Seeing Gu Yanran Again_2
At this moment, the entire Du Family is in chaos.
The Medical Schools from Xuan State and the surrounding states have all been summoned here, among them are even a few retired Imperial Physicians known for their exceptional medical skills.
"This disease is truly strange; True Qi from the Medical School is completely ineffective against it!"
"I’ve practiced medicine for decades and have never seen such a peculiar ailment."
"Fortunately, Martial Artists above the Second Realm seem not to contract the disease, otherwise, it might spread to more people."
"Stop talking about this, I just want to know how to cure the disease!"
Two days ago, a strange illness suddenly spread throughout the Du Family, with sufferers vomiting and having diarrhea incessantly, sometimes also experiencing headaches and fever. Initially, the Du Family thought it was just a common cold and immediately called upon the Medical School they had on retainer.
But even True Qi from the Fourth Realm Medical School was of no use against these symptoms.
Moreover, more and more members of the household were being infected. With no choice left, the Du Family had to follow the instructions from the "medical manual" and isolated all the patients, taking preventive measures to avoid more people becoming infected.
An elderly Imperial Physician stroked his beard and said, "This should be a new ailment, never recorded in medical books. We don’t know how to treat it, so we can only try one remedy after another..."
A middle-aged man said with a grim face, "Our Du Family members are not your test subjects!"
He looked at a man standing behind him and said, "Find some common folk, give each of them one hundred taels, and have them test the medicine after contracting the disease..."
"Yes."
The man responded and immediately left.
The middle-aged man gently rubbed his brow; the Du Family is now in utter turmoil. Even worse, the day before the first case appeared in the Du Family, his fifth sister had just returned to the Cui Family after visiting, and on the same day, Du Yuan and his wife set off for the Pei Family to attend his father-in-law’s birthday celebration...
Just hope they haven’t been infected, or else the Cui Family and Pei Family might be in danger!
The Six Great Families are intermarried with each other; if there’s any further movement of people, the Zheng Family and Lu Family won’t escape...
No time to worry about others now. He looked at the elder and asked, "How soon can a solution be devised?"
The elder shook his head and said, "This, I cannot give the Family Master an answer. If even the Fourth Realm True Qi is useless, it’s highly likely that an effective remedy cannot be devised..."
Someone suggested to the Du Family Master, "Should we go ask the patriarch?"
The Du Family Master glanced at him and couldn’t be bothered to reply.
The patriarch is in the Sixth Realm of the Martial Path, not the Sixth Realm of the Medical School. Different professions are as separate as mountains; even Imperial Physicians are useless, what can he do?
At this moment, a figure stepped forward and said, "Big brother, perhaps there is someone who can cure their illness."
The Du Family Master looked towards his second brother and asked, "Who?"
The middle-aged man replied, "A few days ago, I went with Du Yun to the Wang family; the Wang family’s Miss Xuan was suffering from a strange illness. The Fourth Realm Medical School was helpless until Wang Yun invited that person. Only then was she cured..."
The Du Family Master asked, "Who?"
The middle-aged man replied, "Imperial Censor Li Nuo, it’s said his cultivation in the Medical School has reached the Fifth Realm. The medical manual in our family was authored by him..."
Upon hearing this, the elderly Imperial Physician also spoke up, "The Fifth Realm True Qi from the Medical School does indeed possess extraordinary power, perhaps it can be tried..."
The Du Family Master said, "But will he help us?"
The middle-aged man said, "Don’t forget, the relationship between the Li Family and the Wang Family is far less than with the Du Family. He still chose to treat the Wang Family; it is said that a true healer has kindness in their heart. A Fifth Realm healer should only see the patients, right..."
He paused and continued, "At worst, we can do like the Wang Family did, help him catch some corrupt officials and troublemakers, and help him publish a few books. I think he would agree..."
The Du Family Master was silent for a moment and asked, "Where is he now?"
The middle-aged man replied, "I’ll have someone find him..."
Jiangnan Road.
Chen State.
Imperial Censor Li Nuo suddenly visited Chen State, catching the local officials off guard. In just a few days, more than a dozen officials of varying ranks were disposed of, and the entrance to the Chen State government office was crowded with common folk coming to file complaints.
Because there were so many people filing complaints, Li Nuo’s lunch time was compressed to a quarter-hour.
This period of personal experience gradually made Li Nuo realize that his own abilities are limited. By himself, he cannot fundamentally change this situation unless he spends his life doing only this one thing.
What Daxia needs is a more complete and rational inspection system.
However, before that, he must also handle these tough issues around the Six Great Families.
Li Nuo was halfway through his lunch when a figure walked in from outside, first greeting him with a bow, then saying, "Greetings, Lord Li, I am Du Chen of the Du Family. Several of my family members are suffering from a strange illness, and I know Lord Li’s medical skills are superb, so I’ve come to seek your help..."
Li Nuo put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man immediately said, "We understand the rules; the Du Family has some influence throughout Huainan Road. Lord Li merely needs to visit the Du Family for a few days, and the corrupt officials, bullies, and troublemakers of Huainan Road, the Du Family will investigate them for you..."
Li Nuo put down the handkerchief and hesitated, "This..."
The middle-aged man continued, "The Du Family has already had the bookstores below print Lord Li’s works, and the proceeds from the book sales will be wholly yours..."
...
Xuan State.
Du County.
Within the Du Family, Li Nuo walked out of the isolation yard, with two maids standing by holding a copper basin and towels. After Li Nuo finished washing and drying his hands, the Du Family Master stepped forward and asked, "Lord Li, how is it?"
