Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

"I happened to hear on the way that there was a plague in Xichuan Town, and it was very serious, so I decided to come and take a look. I never expected to meet Brother Zizhou here."

As Jiang Yuchuan spoke, he walked over to Ji Zizhou and began to take his pulse.

In fact, he had already released his divine sense when he entered Xichuan Town.

After scanning the town several times, Jiang Yuchuan found nothing unusual. The plague raging through the town also seemed normal, unaffected by any special energy.

However, Jiang Yuchuan should not draw conclusions too early.

After all, he had only been in Xichuan Town for a short time, and he didn't know much about either the epidemic or the town itself, so it was normal that he didn't notice anything.

During his examination of Jizizhou, Jiang Yuchuan discovered that Jizizhou had been infected with the plague for much longer than other villagers in the town, about five days.

If this were an ordinary villager, they would probably have died two times over in that amount of time.

The reason why Ji Zizhou was able to withstand the plague for so long was twofold: first, he was an outstanding physician who knew how to effectively slow the deterioration of the disease; second, in addition to his medical skills, Ji Zizhou was also a powerful martial artist who, with his profound internal energy cultivation, could also play a role in curbing the plague.

However, even so, the situation in Jizizhou is still not optimistic.

If he had arrived a day or two later, he probably would have been collecting the other person's corpse.

Seeing that Jiang Yuchuan's expression grew increasingly serious as he took his pulse, Ji Zizhou smiled faintly and said softly, "I know my own body very well. Brother Jiang, there's no need to worry too much. I have no regrets."

Jiang Yuchuan withdrew his hand, looked at Ji Zizhou who had already resigned himself to his fate, and shook his head, "Brother Zizhou's last words were spoken too soon. Your illness is not incurable."

"What do you mean by that, Brother Jiang?"

Ji Zizhou was stunned, somewhat unable to believe what he was hearing.

It is quite possible that someone who has been bedridden for a long time may occasionally experience hallucinations.

Jiang Yuchuan looked up at Ji Zizhou and smiled, "What I mean is, I can cure this plague."

"--What?!"

Ji Zizhou excitedly leaned on the bed and sat up halfway with his back against the bed board. "Brother Jiang, do you really have a way to cure this plague?"

Although he had absolute confidence in Jiang Yuchuan's medical skills, he was still quite shocked to hear Jiang Yuchuan's confident words at this moment.

Keep in mind, Jiang Yuchuan has only been in Xichuan Town for less than a day!

He even suspected that he might be the first patient Jiang Yuchuan would see after arriving in Xichuan Town.

Seeing the shock etched on Ji Zizhou's pale, sickly face, Jiang Yuchuan didn't waste any words. He took out a pill and fed it to Ji Zizhou.

Ji Zizhou did not refuse and swallowed the pill that Jiang Yuchuan handed him.

The elixir enters the abdomen.

In order to help Ji Zizhou digest the pill quickly, Jiang Yuchuan infused Ji Zizhou with a trace of life force.

With the infusion of this vital energy, Ji Zizhou suddenly felt a surge of strength in his body, which had become extremely weak due to the plague. Even his listless spirit improved considerably.

Ji Zizhou, whose face was gradually turning rosy, stared at Jiang Yuchuan with disbelief.

He never expected that Jiang Yuchuan's claim of "being able to cure" would have such an immediate effect!

One moment he had just taken the pill, and the next he immediately experienced its effects.

Although Jiang Yuchuan could instantly restore Ji Zizhou to his peak condition, he didn't do so. This was because such a method far exceeded the capabilities of an ordinary person.

He simply removed the plague from Ji Zizhou's body; the rest was up to Ji Zizhou to recover on his own.

"Brother Jiang, what's the name of this pill you gave me?!"

Feeling as if he had been reborn, Ji Zizhou grabbed Jiang Yuchuan's hand and asked excitedly.

Jiang Yuchuan knew what Ji Zizhou was thinking at that moment, so he replied, "Brother Zizhou, the pill I gave you is not something ordinary people can take. One of the ingredients is too potent, and only martial artists with profound internal strength can withstand it."

Jiang Yuchuan was not lying.

This pill is too much for an ordinary person's fragile body to withstand; forcing them to take it would only have the opposite effect.

Upon hearing this, Ji Zizhou felt a little disappointed, but he quickly recovered and looked at Jiang Yuchuan, continuing, "Then Brother Jiang must have other ideas, right?"

Ji Zizhou asked this question entirely because of what Jiang Yuchuan had said earlier.

Since any pill Jiang Yuchuan could casually take out could be so effective on him, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to develop a cure for the plague in ordinary people, given some time.

Jiang Yuchuan did not deny it, and nodded, saying, "I have a pretty good understanding of the situation of this plague. Give me a few days, and I should be able to refine a pill to cure it."

"Great!"

Ji Zizhou sat up abruptly. "In this way, the lives of the more than three hundred people in this town can be saved!"

After about an incense stick's time, Xi Yun came in carrying the brewed medicine.

At this time, Ji Zizhou was already able to get out of bed and walk.

When Xi Yun came in, she saw Ji Zizhou standing next to Jiang Yuchuan, watching Jiang Yuchuan write down the medicinal materials needed for alchemy.

"--you?!"

Xi Yun stared at the two of them, momentarily stunned.

When Ji Zizhou saw Xi Yun, his eyes lit up, and he immediately shared with a smile, "Senior Sister Xi, the plague I contracted has almost completely healed. I have to thank Brother Jiang for all of this! Moreover, Brother Jiang has also found a way to treat the other villagers! Finally, no one in the town will die from the plague anymore!"

During the days he was ill, he relied entirely on the care of Xi Yun and several other doctors who came to help after hearing the news.

Especially Xi Yun, although she always had a stern face and spoke coldly, her care for him was meticulous.

This also caused his attitude towards Xi Yun to change unconsciously. He was no longer as respectful and fearful as he was when they first met, but became much closer to her and regarded her as his senior sister.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Xi Yun looked at Jiang Yuchuan, then at Ji Zizhou, her expression showing a mixture of belief and doubt.

She had heard about Jiang Yuchuan's background and abilities many times from Ji Zizhou. However, given Ji Zizhou's tendency to blindly idolize his idol, she didn't take his words to heart.

But seeing Ji Zizhou, who had recovered to the point of being no different from an ordinary person, made her have to start paying attention to Jiang Yuchuan again.

To ensure that what Ji Zizhou said was true, Xi Yun immediately put down the medicine she was holding, walked towards Ji Zizhou, grabbed his wrist without saying a word, and began to take his pulse.

According to his pulse diagnosis, Ji Zizhou's illness has basically healed. Apart from some weakness, he has no other problems. Compared to his critical condition not long ago, it's no exaggeration to say that the difference is like night and day.

"He really recovered?!"

Xi Yun let go of Ji Zizhou's hand and looked at Jiang Yuchuan with an incredulous expression.

She simply couldn't understand how this boy, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, could eradicate the plague from Ji Zizhou's body in such a short time.

This is simply illogical!

You should know that with her research on this plague, even her master couldn't have done this.

Could it be that the Great Qian Dynasty's Divine Physician Qi is truly that skilled? Even his disciples, at such a young age, possess such unbelievable medical abilities.

Although Xi Yun had a lot of questions she wanted to ask Jiang Yuchuan, she also knew what was the most urgent matter at the moment.

After all, with Ji Zizhou as a living example right in front of her, no matter how unbelievable it seemed, she had no choice but to place her last hope on Jiang Yuchuan.

Therefore, after Jiang Yuchuan finished writing the prescription, Xi Yun immediately picked it up and rushed out to search for medicinal herbs according to the records on it.

After Xi Yun left, Ji Zizhou seemed to remember something, and his expression darkened. "If Senior Baicao could have held on for two more days until Brother Jiang arrived, perhaps he could have recovered like me. It's just a pity..."

Jiang Yuchuan knew that the "Senior Baicao Laoqing" that Ji Zizhou mentioned was the "Old Man Baicao" whom he had met once at the Linghu Chamber of Commerce.

"Everyone has their own destiny, Brother Zizhou, there's no need to worry too much."

Jiang Yuchuan offered words of comfort.

Ji Zizhou snapped out of his thoughts and nodded, saying, "Brother Jiang is right. From the day he entered Xichuan Town, Senior Baicao had already foreseen that this day would come, but he never regretted the decision he made. If it weren't for Senior Baicao, we wouldn't have been able to develop a prescription to prevent and slow the spread of the plague so quickly, saving nearly a hundred lives from its clutches."

"I believe that all the surviving villagers of Xichuan Town will remember Elder Baicao's contributions! Of course, once Brother Jiang's elixir is successfully refined, his name and kindness will surely be sung by the villagers of Xichuan for generations to come!"

After saying that, Ji Zizhou smiled and looked at Jiang Yuchuan.

"Brother Zizhou, you flatter me."

Jiang Yuchuan smiled and replied, "If it weren't for Brother Zizhou and the other doctors' persistence and dedication, these villagers wouldn't have been able to wait until now. Therefore, every doctor in Xichuan Town is equally great. Furthermore, I believe that all the doctors who came to Xichuan Town at this time were not doing so for any fame, but out of the true heart of a healer. This kind of selfless dedication without seeking anything in return is itself a great act."

Jiang Yuchuan's words moved Ji Zizhou to tears.

In the following days, the entire town of Xichuan was freed from its usual gloom.

After the news spread that Jiang Yuchuan could cure the plague, all the villagers who had been infected with the plague regained their hope for life, especially when they saw Ji Zizhou, who had recovered completely, reappear before them.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuchuan began refining pills using the herbs that Xi Yun and several other physicians had collected over the past few days.

Considering that there were too many villagers in the town infected with the plague, if each person needed one pill, Jiang Yuchuan would have to refine hundreds of pills.

This was far too troublesome and time-consuming. Therefore, Jiang Yuchuan slightly increased the potency of the medicine and prepared to refine fifty pills based on the number of people infected with the plague.

Fifty pills, ten to be dissolved in water each day, are given to each patient to take. After five days, the plague will be cured.
