The old man had never expected that the other party would reject him. Seeing that there were quite a few people sitting not far away, he raised his voice unconsciously: "Kind people, is there anyone among you who knows medicine? My old woman is dying! Please save her! Even if it's just giving her something to eat, at worst just let her eat so she can go on her way."

Hearing this, Hua Xin couldn't help but frowned slightly and said softly: "You guys continue eating, I'll go see what's going on."

"Xinxin..." Nangong Ziqiu was a little disapproving, worried that it would cause trouble.

However, Hua Xin had already walked towards the old man.

Since Nangong Ziqiu and Ye Lansheng were holding children in their arms, they could not go with Hua Xin and could only stay where they were and wait.

When Hua Xin walked up to the old man, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but soon he changed into a mournful expression, crying: "Madam, my wife has been sick for a while, and the people in the city have either fled or hidden, and there is no doctor at all. I wonder if you have anyone here who knows medicine? Or if you can give us something to eat!"

Although the old man was very old, his eyes were still sharp and he noticed that these people seemed to be having a meal.

Food... When he thought of food, he swallowed subconsciously and his stomach churned.

Hua Xin looked at the old man, observed his face, and suddenly felt a little confused.

She knew that there was a snowstorm at the moment, and for an ordinary person, getting sick often meant a heavy burden.

So, she thought about it and said quickly: "We do have some medicine. If you feel comfortable, you can come in and I will help you take a look."

Hearing Hua Xin say this, a hint of gratitude appeared on the old man's face.

He nodded without hesitation and immediately turned around to carry the person on his back.

Soon, he came in carrying a pale and listless man on his back.

Hua Xin thought that everyone was eating in the central hall, so she led everyone to a secluded room.

The room was originally used as a warehouse and is now empty.

In order to ensure safety, Hua Xin naturally has to stay away from her family as much as possible.

At this moment, only Hua Moxuan was with her.

The old man gently put the person on the ground. Hua Xin turned to Hua Moxuan and said, "Brother Xuan, go get a quilt!"

After all, the ground was icy cold and the man was sick, so it was not appropriate for him to just lie on the ground like that.

"Okay, I'll be back soon." Hua Moxuan said and left quickly.

After he left, Hua Xin carefully checked the patient's condition, frowned, and fell into deep thought.

The old woman was clearly running a fever, so she asked the old man point blank, "How long has she been ill? What are her specific symptoms?"

The old man recalled for a moment and answered slowly, "I vomited at first, but because we didn't have anything to eat, I couldn't vomit anything in the end. Oh, and I also had diarrhea."

"Vomiting, diarrhea, it sounds like an intestinal bacterial infection!" Hua Xin murmured. The best way would be to draw blood for a test, but she would not do that in front of the old man.

"No, she also has symptoms of high fever." Hua Xin said with a frown. For safety reasons, she still wore gloves. The action was as natural as pulling them out of the sleeves, but in fact it was taken out from space.

She put on gloves and carefully examined the old woman's arm and found that there were ulcers of varying degrees on her body, which made her feel puzzled.

"These look like they were bitten by something..." Hua Xin murmured softly.

When the old man beside him heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Rats, they are all rats."

It turned out that when they had no food to eat, they began to catch mice to fill their stomachs, but these mice were extremely ferocious. Not only did they bite humans, but they also carried germs.

Not long after, Hua Moxuan came over holding a quilt.

However, before he could even step into the room, Hua Xin called out to him anxiously: "Brother Xuan, don't come in. Just leave the quilt at the door. I'll get it myself."

When Hua Moxuan heard this, he immediately felt that something was wrong and thought to himself: Is this an infectious disease?

"Xin'er, is this disease contagious? I'm not afraid. I've just been in contact with you. If it is contagious, then it must be..." Hua Moxuan came in directly holding a quilt.

"What? An infectious disease?" The old man's face turned pale when he heard it, and then he began to cough violently. Then he felt dizzy and his body swayed and he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Hua Xin was quick to act and supported him.

"Don't get excited, I can cure it. But you can't leave this room for the time being, otherwise you will be infected when you go out." Hua Xin said cautiously.

"What, what should I do?" The old man panicked when he heard this, and sat on the ground with his thigh slapped.

"What's wrong?" Hua Xin asked hurriedly upon seeing this.

"My husband and I lost our son when we were young, and they left behind a pair of children. The older one is now 11 years old, and the younger one is only 7 years old. If we don't go back, they will probably really starve to death."

As the old man spoke, his eyes were full of anxiety and worry. He couldn't help but began to wipe away his tears, followed by another violent coughing fit.

"Where do you live? I'll send someone to pick them up, but I'm afraid that you've lived together for so long, their bodies..." Hua Xin frowned, secretly worrying whether the two children had also been infected.

Nangong Ziqiu waited for a long time, but they didn't come back. Feeling a little worried, he entrusted the child to Mo Chuli and went to find them himself.

Unexpectedly, just as I walked to the door, I heard Hua Xin shouting anxiously: "Zi Qiu, from now on, don't get close to me. No one is allowed to get close to this room. All things must be placed two meters away. I will come out to get them. They have an infectious disease. I am afraid that it has begun to spread in the city, but no one dares to make it public. This disease is a mixture of plague and cholera, and both symptoms will appear. You should know how to disinfect, right? Do a comprehensive disinfection first. The children will be taken care of by you for the time being, and I will come out after the disinfection."

When Nangong Ziqiu heard this, he was immediately panicked, but when he thought of Hua Xin's superb medical skills, he felt a little relieved.

"Xinxin, don't worry about your treatment. Leave the outside matters to us." After saying that, he turned and ran away, telling others about it.

For a moment, everyone looked serious, as if they were facing a great battle.

Ye Lansheng knew very well that if a plague really broke out here, Song Guanqing and his companions must not take the risk of coming here.

So he decisively ordered Tianyang to convey this important information immediately.

However, just as they were preparing to take action, Tianyang unexpectedly received news from Bai Zhu.
