Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Demolish, Demolish, Demolish, Buy, Buy, Buy…
Three days later, the items she had ordered indeed arrived. She woke up early in the morning, entered the study, and saw that it was filled with boxes of all sizes under a white ring of light; there was no place to even set foot in the room.
It had been over a year since she had last experienced the feeling of receiving a package and unwrapping it.
Most importantly, the packages didn't need to be collected; they came directly to her house.
It was simply exhilarating!
Unwrap, buy, buy, buy…
For several days in a row, Qi Yue didn't go to the clinic to see patients. She was busy in the space selling items, buying items, unwrapping packages, and collecting goods…
Previously there hadn't been much in the clinic, but now it was filled with all the trinkets she liked.
Little bonsais, human figurines, various music boxes, wishing globes…
She even bought herself a swing set and installed it next to the creek.
All of these were little things that she had wanted to buy in the past but either didn't manage to or didn't have the money to buy.
Not to mention food and drinks.
Fried chicken, fruit tea, milk tea, burgers, CocCola…
Spaghetti, steak, red wine…
She had longed for these things for a while.
She could never have imagined that she would still get to enjoy such things in this world.
Now she started to believe what the assistant had said; this time-travel opportunity was truly a stroke of luck many couldn't even dream of…
The joy brought by the space immersed her until Zhang Popo started banging on the door loudly!
“Miss!”
“Miss!”
“Miss!”
“What is it? What's the big deal?”
Qi Yue came out of the door, glaring at Zhang Popo impatiently.
“Miss, you haven't been to the clinic for a few days?” Zhang Popo who usually kept her head down, now lifted it up.
“So what? It's my clinic. I go if I want; I don't if I don't.”
Saying this, Qi Yue was about to close the door.
She just wanted to run her antique store and live a dreamlike life in the space.
“Miss!” Zhang Popo stopped the door with her hand, “There's been an incident outside. Please go check it out!”
“What happened?” Qi Yue raised her eyebrows, “Did someone smash up the pharmacy or is someone causing trouble?”
“Neither.”
“Then what does it have to do with me?”
“Miss, everyone outside is falling sick. If you don't take care of it, sooner or later it will reach the people in our house too.”
“Falling sick?” Qi Yue finally stepped outside, observing the damp weather, “Has there been a lot of rain these days?”
“Yes, miss, people fall sick after each rain. There are people inside and out of the pharmacy. The old servant called you many times, but you wouldn't come out…”
“Are our people okay?”
“The ones in our mansion and on the farm are fine, but Baoshuang from the pharmacy went home once and fell sick; everyone else is fine.”
“What are the symptoms?”
“Abdominal pain, diarrhea, unable to eat.”
Qi Yue frowned and thought for a while, then decided to go check it out immediately.
A large number of people falling sick might indicate a problem with the water source, and at such times her foster father must be overwhelmed.
“Mother Zhang, have someone go to the Prefectural Office and check if my foster father is alright. Tell him to boil the water before drinking it.”
“Yes, miss.”
She had just stepped out from under the eaves when it began to rain again. She reluctantly abandoned the idea of riding and opened an umbrella to leave.
As soon as she stepped out, she saw quite a few people standing outside the neighboring pharmacy, some wearing raincoats, others not, reluctantly huddling under the eaves, all bent over, faces showing pain.
Upon seeing Qi Yue, they all incessantly called out, “Divine Doctor, Divine Doctor.”
A gust of wind-driven rain blew under her umbrella, wetting her cheeks.
The cold touch instantly snapped Qi Yue's brain completely back to clarity.
These past few days, she had indeed been somewhat absurd, having forgotten that the world outside was the real one she had to face.
After closing her umbrella, she solemnly comforted everyone, promising to cure them as quickly as possible, and then the people gratefully went to line up.
She first went to the back courtyard of the pharmacy to check on the fallen Baoshuang.
This child was only twelve years old, usually very lively and active, but now she seemed to be half dead, lying in bed without moving.
Her little face was deathly pale, occasionally twitching.
Qi Yue took her pulse and, combined with the situations described by Old lady Zhang, was already almost certain.
But to be sure, she still took a syringe and drew some blood from Baoshuang's arm, stored it in a space, and had an assistant perform a blood analysis.
While waiting for the results, she had already decided on a treatment plan.
She administered several medicines to Baoshuang, who soon woke up.
“Mistress,” Baoshuang struggled to get up as soon as she saw her.
“Stay lying down.”
Qi Yue arranged a pillow for her to lean on and asked her in detail about her situation at home.
After hearing her talk about what she had eaten and drunk at home, Qi Yue was convinced that the water supply had been poisoned.
Furthermore, with the recent frequent rains, the overflowing waters had thoroughly contaminated all the wells, sickening anyone who drank the poison-infused water. It wouldn't be unusual for the whole town to soon suffer a massive outbreak of diarrhea, a time when bacteria would be everywhere!
“Mistress, when I came here, my family was also sick. I originally planned to bring some medicine back, but I fell ill myself.”
“No worries, sleep a bit more. I'll send medicines for your family soon.”
“Thank you, Mistress.”
After returning to the pharmacy and examining a few more patients, Qi Yue found their conditions were almost identical to Baoshuang's, all due to drinking the contaminated water.
At that moment, her assistant reported the results of the blood analysis. She listened and effortlessly wrote down prescriptions.
Seeing many people were almost unable to hold on, Qi Yue decided not to prepare each prescription individually anymore.
She had a servant take some silver and buy three large pots, then set them up under the eave to brew the medicine.
Pouring packs of medicine and buckets of Spiritual Spring Water into the pots.
Light the fire, simmer the medicine, and soon the whole street was filled with the fragrance of herbs.
Upon hearing Qi Yue was distributing medicine, people from all over the city arrived, forming a long line in the rain.
Three large pots, finish one batch and cook the next, after four rounds, every suffering person had received their medicine.
Qi Yue instructed them to go home and boil the water before drinking.
Baoshuang, having taken potent medicine, had already gotten up, filled a jar with the medicine, and prepared to go home.
Before she left, Qi Yue also advised her to tell her family to boil the water before using it; she agreed, departing cheerfully.
Not long after, Chu Yuntian came, wearing a raincoat, followed by Old lady Zhang.
There were too many people outside, so the two had to come inside to talk.
“Yueyue, you had someone tell me to boil the water before drinking; is there something wrong with the water?”
“Father, I suspect someone has poisoned the water.”
Seeing Chu Yuntian's incredulous expression, Qi Yue repeated her entire analysis.
“Father, this poison might not be deadly, but if the whole town suffers from stomach aches and diarrhea, the waste could further contaminate the water and the air, possibly generating mutant toxins, and then people will die.”
“You mean to say?”
“First, immediately send people to test the water sources everywhere and cleanse the toxins from the water; second, inform all the citizens that from now on, they must boil their water before drinking to kill some of the virus; third, gather all the doctors and medicinal sellers in the city. Those who have strength must provide it, and those who have medicine must supply it, to preserve the lives of the community.”
Since these people didn't understand anything about bacteria and microbes, Qi Yue simply told them the water was poisoned to make them take it seriously.
After hesitating a bit, Qi Yue added, “Father, we still don't know the identity of the poisoner. If they continue to poison, our measures might be in vain. The most crucial thing might still be to conduct a thorough investigation.”
