Lu Yinheng said, "Give me some medicine too!"

During his conversation with Ji Yunshuang, Lu Yinheng gained a better understanding of the insect plague.

I know that the medicine Ji Yunshuang gave me must be taken within a certain time to be effective, otherwise the situation in Yaoguang County may very well happen.

If they were a little faster, they could save one more person.

"Could you help me identify these very serious cases? Soldiers in conditions like yours and Xu Xi's, please separate them and treat them individually. You should have experience with this!"

As Ji Yunshuang spoke, she took out a set of acupuncture and medicine from her bundle.

They said they took it from a bundle, but actually they used the bundle as a cover to take it from somewhere else.

This is the acupuncture and medicine she used on Lu Yinheng and Xu Xi before.

Everyone's constitution is different, so even if they contract the same disease, the progression of the illness will be different.

For people with very severe cases, oral medication alone will not be effective. In such cases, intravenous injection is the only option.

Saving lives was the priority; she didn't even have time to get out her needles and medicine, worried about arousing suspicion. She figured she'd save the person first, then find an excuse to cover it up later!

When Lu Yinheng saw the needles and medicine she took out, his eyes darkened slightly, but he quickly looked away calmly and said, "Alright, I will take charge of picking out the seriously ill soldiers."

After saying that, he didn't delay any longer and immediately used his experience to bring the sicker soldier to Ji Yunshuang.

Ji Yunshuang injected the medicine into the soldiers one by one.

Many of the soldiers Lu Yinheng brought had lost consciousness. After the drug was injected, some of them did not react at all, while others suddenly sprang up and did extremely crazy things.

Lu Yinheng, who had been on guard, drew his sword as soon as the soldiers suddenly attacked.

Just as his sword was about to strike, Ji Yunshuang spoke up to stop him, saying, "Wait, this is not an anomaly, it's just a stress response. Find a rope and tie him up first."

Lu Yinheng didn't know what a stress response was, but since Ji Yunshuang could still be saved, she must be able to be saved. He quickly put down his sword and, following her instructions, found a rope and tied her up.

Ji Yunshuang didn't dare to delay and quickly injected the unconscious soldiers with medicine.

The reason why some unconscious soldiers rioted and reacted so violently after being injected with the drug was because the drug was fighting against the worms in their bodies.

If we don't hurry, those people will all be beyond saving.

The reason these soldiers have been able to hold out until now is probably thanks to the bottle of medicine she gave Lu Yinheng back then.

If it weren't for that bottle of medicine, these soldiers would probably be just like the villagers in Yaoguang County by now.

In order to save time, Ji Yunshuang didn't even bother to change the needle. She quickly found the vein and injected the medicine into the soldiers.

As time went on, the reactions of the soldiers who received the injections became more and more intense, and almost every soldier's reaction was very violent, so Lu Yinheng couldn't handle it all by himself.

Many soldiers who went to administer the medicine rushed over to help after hearing the commotion.

After a lot of work, they finally managed to bring all the berserk soldiers under control.

Looking at the soldiers who were bound by ropes, writhing and making strange noises like monsters, one of them wiped the sweat from his brow and asked with lingering fear, "Sir, what's going on? How did they become like this?"

Since arriving in Yaoguang County, Ji Yunshuang has not had a chance to rest.

Even with the magical nectar from the space as a supplement to regulate her body, she still felt so tired that she wanted to vomit.

This kind of fatigue is mainly psychological.

She really hated the mutated insects and these crazed people, which made her feel like she was back in the apocalypse, and this feeling was absolutely disgusting.

She exhaled a breath of stale air, gave Lu Yinheng a look, and gestured for him to speak.

Lu Yinheng then briefly explained the situation in Yaoguang County, and added, "But don't worry, these medicines were developed by the adults. They were given to the villagers in Yaoguang County, so they should be fine."

The soldiers were momentarily stunned.

What did they hear?

insect?

This isn't an ordinary plague infection, but rather an infection caused by insect eggs—a very dangerous insect at work.

Many soldiers felt a chill run down their spines.

"Sir, could we also be infected with insect eggs?" someone asked fearfully.

Ji Yunshuang said, "I can't say for sure either, but you don't need to worry. If you experience obvious symptoms such as abdominal pain or vomiting, you can take another pill then. But you must not take the medicine in advance out of fear."

The soldier who had just questioned her was about to put a pill in his mouth. Hearing Ji Yunshuang's words, he paused, then quickly asked, "Why can't I take it beforehand?"

"Because this medicine has no preventative effect; it can only kill insect eggs." Ji Yunshuang paused and said, "Moreover, as the saying goes, every medicine has some toxicity. If you take medicine when you're not sick, it will only harm your body."

After hearing Ji Yunshuang's words, the soldiers who were originally planning to take their medicine put down the pills in their hands.

Lu Yinheng frowned, his face full of worry, and asked, "Is it possible for someone who has already contracted the disease to be infected a second time?"

Ji Yunshuang rubbed her temples and nodded, "Yes! So the best way is to capture the witch and eliminate all the insects she has cultivated."

Everyone's expressions turned serious.

If the insects were raised by the witch, then she must be even more powerful. How could they possibly defeat her?

With just a flick of her finger, they would all collapse.

Lu Yinheng also felt a terrible headache.

They must find a way to subdue the priestess, otherwise they will have no chance of winning.

However, looking at the obviously tired Ji Yunshuang, he said, "You're tired too, go and rest first! We can talk about other things after you've woken up."

Ji Yunshuang glanced at the bound soldiers and said, "No one can leave this place unattended."

"I'll stay here," Lu Yinheng said. "You can go and rest without worry!"

Ji Yunshuang didn't say anything more and found a place to rest.

Xu Xi found a temporary place to house these infected soldiers, which was a former temporary training camp of the garrison.

The entire training camp was built at the foot of the mountain and was very rudimentary.

Ji Yunshuang was no longer picky about where she was going. Led by the soldiers, she arrived at a simple mud house.

The soldier said somewhat embarrassedly, "Sir, this training camp has been uninhabited for quite some time. We came here in a hurry this time and didn't have time to tidy it up... so it's a bit simple."

"It's alright!" Ji Yunshuang waved her hand, signaling him to go down first.

After the soldiers left, she took out half a bottle of honey from her spatial storage, mixed it with milk, drank it, and then went straight to bed to sleep.

Having not slept for so long, and drinking the magical nectar in the space like water, she fell asleep almost as soon as her head hit the bed.
