My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.
Chapter 104 Pushing the envelope
Lin Mo scoffed, looking at him as if he were an idiot:
"you are wrong.
I'm thinking, should I just kick you unconscious or knock you out with my bare hands?
Ha, do you really think we're made of clay and have no temper?
Zhao Qi successfully turned pale.
"You...you have no sense of reason at all?"
"I won't talk." Lin Mo said coldly.
"If you don't want a beating, get lost. One more word and I'll send you flying!"
"You..." Zhao Qi's face flushed red with anger, and she gritted her teeth:
"A good man doesn't argue with a woman, I'm leaving!"
With the chatter gone, Lin Mo looked at Doctor Mu, who was taking pulses again.
Just then, Han Yunfeng rushed over.
He glanced cautiously at Lin Mo, then looked anxiously at Doctor Mu:
"Dr. Mu, many people in my Han family have been found to have fever and cough today. Please come with me to take a look."
As soon as Han Yunfeng finished speaking, other people ran over.
All of these cases involved people in their families who developed a fever and cough.
……
Lin Mo glanced at the busy Doctor Mu, then turned and walked towards the Xu family's camp.
At that moment, Xu Wuyan had just finished setting up the tent.
He looked at Lin Mo, whose brows were furrowed, and asked, "Is something the matter?"
Lin Mo nodded.
She glanced at the tent that had been set up, then looked at Liu Ying with a serious expression:
"Mother, you and Xu Xianyu and the others should stay in the tent from now on."
There's no need. You shouldn't come out; just stay in the tent.
They are physically weak and easily infected.
Although she had the prescription and the medicine, she wasn't sure if it would work 100% for them.
When treating an illness, the key is to prescribe the right medicine for the right symptoms.
In my past life, this prescription cured most people, but it didn't work for some.
This prescription is not very effective for the elderly or those with serious illnesses.
She remembered the girl from the Valley of Divine Healers saying that the prescription should be adjusted according to the patient's condition and the type of illness, with other medicinal herbs added as needed.
But if it's discovered in the early stages, this prescription is sufficient.
Because this area is sparsely populated and covered in ice and snow, it took Xu Wuyan almost two days to ride a horse and take people to buy medicine in his previous life.
During this time, many seriously ill and elderly people were the first to succumb and die.
Therefore, what she needs to do now is to prevent problems before they occur!
Make sure her family members are not infected.
Liu Ying walked over nervously and grabbed her hand:
"MoMo, what's wrong?"
"Has something happened?"
"It's alright, Mother, don't worry." Lin Mo shook her head at her.
"We're keeping you in the tents to prevent you from catching a cold."
Many people have caught a cold; we just need to take precautions.
Liu Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, Mother will listen to you."
But you must promise your mother that you will take good care of yourself and not worry her.
Also, as you said, we can't manage so many people; we just need to manage ourselves.
Lin Mo paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
Just as I was about to speak, something unexpected happened to Dr. Mu.
She frowned slightly, then told her mother and the others to go into the tent first before she and Xu Wuyan walked toward Doctor Mu.
"Wait!"
Lin Mo called out to Xu Wuyan.
When he stopped, she took out a handkerchief and tied it around his face.
“Be prepared.”
The handkerchief brushed across his face, making it tickle.
Xu Wuyan's lips curled up.
"Okay." Lin Mo withdrew her hand and looked up:
"Let's go."
When Lin Mo saw Doctor Mu being pushed to the ground, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.
He quickly stepped forward and reached out to help Doctor Mu up.
Then, his eyes turned coldly to Han Yunfeng:
"Should I do it, or will you do it yourself?"
Han Yunfeng looked bewildered and confused.
"It seems you don't like doing things yourself, so I'll choose for you then." Lin Mo sneered as she released her grip on Doctor Mu's hand.
The next second, she slapped Han Yunfeng across the face!
Snapped!
Han Yunfeng was sent flying by the blow.
"Ahhh!"
Han Yunfeng, who had fallen to the ground, cried out in pain.
Lin Mo shook her hand, her face icy cold:
"Dr. Mu, I have done you a great favor by treating you without taking a penny."
Even if you don't take this kindness to heart, you should still show him some respect.
If you show him any respect, he won't lay a hand on you.
"Han Yunfeng, Dr. Mu doesn't owe your Han family anything."
Dr. Mu looked bewildered.
A feeling of being moved slowly rose in my heart, and my eyes suddenly welled up with tears.
During this period, I was constantly being bossed around by them.
These people are not only ungrateful, but if you say something they don't want to hear, or if you say you don't have the medicine for them, they will yell at you and even take their anger out on you.
Mrs. Xu is right, she doesn't owe them anything.
The reason I didn't refuse was simply out of a doctor's compassion.
It would be a lie to say I'm not heartbroken.
Han Yunfeng's face turned bright red.
After a long while, he finally managed to utter a sentence:
"I didn't hit him. I was just too emotional and pushed him."
He lost his balance and fell down; what does it have to do with me?
"Yeah, I was just emotional and gave you a light push. Who knew you were so weak and flew out on your own? What does that have to do with me?" Lin Mo replied.
Her words successfully made those around her laugh.
Xu Wuyan, who was behind her, laughed unkindly. When his wife was about to choke someone, she could really choke them to death.
Lin Mo ignored him and looked at Doctor Mu:
"Dr. Mu, if you have nothing else to do, I'd like to have a few words with you in private."
Dr. Mu nodded and was about to leave with Lin Mo.
Han Yunfeng, however, objected.
He forgot his anger and quickly stopped Doctor Mu:
"Dr. Mu, you can't leave."
"If you leave, what will happen to my son and my father? You have to think of a way to cure them."
Dr. Mu frowned, a hint of mockery in his eyes:
"I can write you a prescription, but you'll have to figure out how to get the medicine yourself; I don't have any."
"How could you not have the medicine?" Han Yunfeng screamed.
"Didn't you give them some medicine to drink yesterday? How come it's gone by the time it gets to my house?"
"Honestly, do you look down on my Han family?"
"Incomprehensible!" Doctor Mu roared.
"I only have a few doses of medicine, which I decocted and distributed to everyone yesterday."
Regardless of whether the medicine is still available, judging from its effectiveness, the prescription is completely ineffective.
So even if I had some, giving it to you wouldn't be of any use, let alone the fact that I don't have any.
"Then go and gather them! Aren't you a doctor? You know how to gather herbs..."
boom!
Before Han Yunfeng could finish speaking, Xu Wuyan delivered an over-the-shoulder throw to him.
"Are you awake?"
Lying on the ground, Han Yunfeng's face contorted in pain, he glared at Xu Wuyan with a ferocious expression:
"Xu Wuyan, are you even human?"
The sick person is your closest relative, your maternal grandfather, your cousin.
Xu Wuyan sneered, "Have some shame. Don't treat what others say as nonsense. I have nothing to do with your Han family."
Furthermore, what right do you have to demand that Doctor Mu personally gather herbs for you?
"He is a doctor, a healer with a compassionate heart!"
"So, you're going to blackmail me?" Xu Wuyan interrupted him, his face full of sarcasm.
“You’re still their son, their father, why don’t you go and buy them medicine and call a doctor? It’s just a blizzard outside, not a hail of knives and stones.”
Han Yunfeng was speechless, and became furious with embarrassment:
"This, this is different!"
"Nothing's different." Xu Wuyan's face was icy, his eyes sweeping around with a warning:
"If you make things difficult for Doctor Mu again in the future, don't blame me for being impolite."
What right do you have to ask others to do things that you yourselves can't even do?
If you've got the guts, go out into this blizzard and ask for a doctor and medicine yourself. Then I might look at you with more respect.
Otherwise, stop trying to morally blackmail others.
After saying that, he led Doctor Mu and Lin Mo to a secluded corner.
Dr. Mu looked grateful:
"Thank you so much this time."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh.
Now he doesn't dare to treat people anymore; he's developed a deep-seated hatred for them.
He couldn't produce the medicine, so these people tried to morally blackmail him, which annoyed him greatly.
Lin Mo shook her head. "Dr. Mu, you don't owe them anything. You should be firm and refuse when necessary."
Otherwise, they'll think you're easy to bully and will take advantage of you.
Since the start of the exile, in order to survive, everyone has basically torn off their hypocritical side and will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
Dr. Mu shook his head with a wry smile. He has never liked arguing or fighting, and he probably can't change that.
He should help less in the future.
He shook his head and looked at Lin Mo with a serious expression:
"Mrs. Xu, let's not talk about these unpleasant things anymore, let's get down to business."
"You came here to ask me about my illness, didn't you?"
Seeing her nod, Dr. Mu became even more serious:
"Their pulse is very different from yesterday's; it has become complicated."
But I'm certain of one thing: you're right, it is indeed contagious, and it spreads very quickly. In just one night, dozens more people have fallen ill; it might really be an epidemic.
He hesitated for a moment before continuing:
"I want to talk to the guards and tell them to separate the sick from the healthy to prevent everyone from getting infected."
"It's no use," Lin Mo shook her head.
She glanced at the cave. "This cave is so small, do you think separating it would be useful?"
