Chapter 295 Let’s Try

The group came to the north of the city and, just like what Yongning Hou did last time, they went door to door to invite the people in the north of the city out.

Since the people in the north of the city were all sick, the group came to the north of the city almost fully armed. At first, the people thought they were bad guys who came to deceive them, and almost no one opened the door for them. It was not until Zhang Wenlai took the initiative to speak that the people recognized his voice and opened the door to let them in.

Zhang Wenlai and the guards behind him did not go in. Instead, Zhang Wenlai stood at their door and tried to persuade the people with all his might, and only then did he trick the people here one by one to the eastern hilltop which he had prepared long ago.

The people in the north of the city have always trusted him, so they were willing to follow him to leave. After all, they knew that they could not stay in the north of the city for the time being. In the meantime, Zhang Wenlai did not go door to door to look for people. After all, the people who knew the news in advance spontaneously rushed to the street. When they saw Zhang Wenlai, they did not let him say anything, but took the initiative to say to him, "Let's go." There was nothing else to say.

They have not yet fallen ill, and some of those who are already ill are staying in their rooms enduring the pain.

Zhang Wenlai looked at it and felt powerless and resentful.

After settling these things, Zhang Wenlai hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion. He first carefully disinfected himself and the guards who had followed him, and then was allowed to enter the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

As soon as he walked into the backyard, he heard the doctors who had locked themselves in the small courtyard where Doctor Li lived suddenly exclaim, as if they had seen something extraordinary, but there was no emotion of fear in the exclamation, but instead a bit of excitement and difficulty in restraining themselves.

Zhang Wenlai was stunned, then as if he thought of something, his face showed excitement. He strode over and came to the gate of Li Laile's courtyard. Seeing that the gate that had been closed was now open, Zhang Wenlai was overjoyed and went straight in. He saw that Yongning Hou was also here.

Not far away was Li Laile, whom he had not seen for a long time. Zhang Wenlai's eyes were shining, and his clear and quiet eyes looked straight at Li Laile. He talked about other people, but his eyes were looking at Li Laile, and he spoke quickly:

"But what discovery has made the doctors so excited?"

Then he saw Li Laile shaking his head slightly.

Zhang Wenlai's eyelids twitched, and his originally passionate heart was completely chilled by Li Laile's shaking head.

He frowned, his eyes full of confusion. After a long silence to accept this reality, he asked them why they were so excited just now.

A doctor standing behind him explained, "Although we haven't found an antidote yet, we have made a breakthrough. We are naturally very happy. That's why we are so excited. I hope the city lord won't blame us."

Seeing Zhang Wenlai's curiosity, another doctor told him about the progress.

As for Li Laile, he continued to stare at the herbs on the table, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After Zhang Wenlai finished listening to the doctor's explanation, the tense expression on his face couldn't help but relax. After all, being able to temporarily resolve the current situation solved their urgent problem.

Before he came back, he was still thinking about how to deal with these sick people. Now, after spending several days, they can finally temporarily put these sick people into a coma, so that they will not get sick without hurting their bodies. During this period of time, they can have more time and energy to deal with the current situation and completely solve the current dilemma.

"In that case, we need to produce a large number of these pills and distribute them to the people," said Zhang Wenlai.

Yes, what they are developing now is pills instead of boiling the herbs in water.

However, the production of pills is relatively troublesome. But now it is not their turn to say whether it is troublesome or not, after all, it is a matter of life and death.

Zhang Wenlai's mind and eyes were filled with the burnt-colored pills that had been prepared on the table. Seeing this, Yongning Hou glanced at Li Laile, and seeing him nod, Yongning Hou told Zhang Wenlai to take the pills away. After Zhang Wenlai left, Yongning Hou asked his doctor to follow him.

After Zhang Wenlai and others left, Yongning Hou turned his attention to Li Laile who was still thinking.

Seeing that he had been staring at the three herbs on the table, Yongning Hou paused, but couldn't help but said, "Looking at the look on Doctor Li's face, it seems that he knows how to mix them."

He had been staring at Li Laile, and only spoke when he saw his understanding expression mixed with some confusion. Li Laile didn't expect that Yongning Hou would see through it so quickly. He pondered with a faint smile on his face, and said, "As the Marquis said, I do know how to mix it, but..."

Yongning Hou had guessed that he would say this, so he nodded and encouraged Li Laile to continue.

The person being encouraged lowered his eyes, his voice lowered, and he answered slowly: "This last prescription requires a poison, and this poison must be obtained from the patient."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Yongning remained silent for a long time, not knowing what to say to add to the horror in these words.

If we follow the principle of fighting poison with poison, then the poison must first be one or two times stronger than the toxins actually contained in the plague.

However, the poison that Li Laile was talking about was the toxin in the plague itself, and then those medicinal herbs could be tried, and the possibility of success was very high.

This was deduced by Li Laile based on his many years of medical experience.

But that’s all. If it fails, a lot of lives will be lost.

The air was a little stuffy for a moment. Yongning Hou wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, looked at Li Laile who looked refreshed, exhaled calmly, then closed his eyes, looking deep in thought.

Yongning Hou knew that Li Laile actually wanted to try the method he had just mentioned, but he would only stop there for now. If Yongning Hou said no, Li Laile would instantly forget about these methods.

But they have to think of a new method afterwards, which may take another half a month. Marquis Yongning can afford it, but the people outside do not have the time to waste with them.

So the choice is now in the hands of Yongning Hou.

Yongning Hou thought quickly, and after half an incense stick, he responded to Li Laile, saying: "Then let's try it and see what the next result is..."

When Li Laile heard this, the confusion on his face disappeared instantly, and turned into confidence and a little excitement.
