WFWC Chapter 45

The Whole Family Went Crazy After Reading My Mind Chapter 45: Eyes In The Dark

 

Word spread from one person to ten people, from ten to a hundred, and cheers rose one after another.

 

Chen Changnian on the tower looked suspicious: “Is that man really General Ji? Bring the telescope here.”

 

The young general beside Chen Changnian hurriedly handed the telescope to him, and Chen Changnian looked towards Ji Xiaoshan while holding the telescope.

 

On the top of the carriage, a man with a strong character was speaking to the people in a decisive tone: “Please rest assured, fellow villagers. This time I am accompanied by the head of the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Physician Mu. We arrived in Jizhou three days ago and have already tested out an effective prescription. As long as we open the city gates and prepare the medicine, we can control the epidemic. Fellow villagers, please give General Ji favor. Don’t make trouble anymore. The key to solving the problem is the most important thing.”

 

“Did you really bring Imperial Physician Mu? Did you really not lie to us?” The man who shouted cried. He had hope in his heart and he didn’t want to turn it into despair. In the past three days, he watched his relatives fall one by one, and he could no longer hold on.

 

Many people wanted a positive answer. They were eager to go to the city and see a doctor. They didn’t want to die, and they didn’t want to see their loved ones fall in front of them.

 

This was more painful than killing them.

 

“Please General Ji, please save us poor people? I beg you.”

 

One person knelt down, and more and more people knelt down towards Ji Xiaoshan. Everyone was more or less infected with the disease and needed treatment.

 

One person knelt and more and more people knelt towards Ji Xiaoshan.

 

Sobbing.

 

Ji Xiaoshan was extremely moved, and his eyes turned red. He choked up and said, “I have been guarding the border for several years just to give the people a stable home. Now that we are facing an epidemic, I am very sad. Don’t worry, Imperial Physician Mu is my father-in-law, and he is really here.”

 

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw an old man getting off the carriage. Chen Changnian also looked over there with a telescope in his hand.

 

When he saw Imperial Physician Mu, he was so excited that he almost dropped the telescope in his hand. He said excitedly, “It’s Imperial Physician Mu, it’s really Imperial Physician Mu. Open the city gate quickly.”

 

Being able to sit in the position of the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau shows that he is extremely powerful. At this moment, he is the hope in everyone’s heart.

 

Countless people cried for joy.

 

“Imperial Physician Mu is here. We are saved. God will not destroy Jizhou.”

 

Soon, the city gates opened wide.

 

The people did not rush in in anger as Chen Changnian had expected, but stood in an orderly manner on both sides of the road, waiting for Ji Xiaoshan and Imperial Physician Mu’s carriage to enter the city first.

 

Chen Changnian had already sent someone to inform the prefect. As soon as Imperial Physician Mu entered the city, he said to Chen Changnian in a deep voice: “Hurry up and have someone copy down the prescriptions in my hand and distribute them to all the doctors in the city. If there is not enough medicine, go to the neighboring city to get it. We must control the epidemic as quickly as possible.”

 

“I admire Imperial Physician Mu’s spirit of putting the overall situation first and not hiding anything.”

 

“Okay, stop flattering us. Send people to do it quickly before we get infected with the disease, and send some uninfected people to make medicine.”

 

“Yes, yes, I will leave right now.”

 

“Xiao Shan, come with me.” After Chen Changnian left, Imperial Physician Mu took Lord Ji to the largest clinic in the city.

 

The doctors in the hospital were already very worried. When they heard that the head of the Imperial Hospital had come from the city, they rushed out to greet him.

 

Imperial Physician Mu nodded to everyone, then took out the prescription and said to everyone, “Go and get the medicine according to to the prescription quickly. Get more. Everyone has worked hard tonight. So don’t rest.”

 

The old doctor in the clinic said with tears in his eyes: “Imperial Physician Mu, we haven’t slept for two days and two nights.”

 

Imperial Physician Mu understood their feelings and nodded solemnly: “I know, I will report the truth to the emperor this time. You are all Sheng Yu’s heroes.”

 

After hearing his words, all the doctors in the clinic felt that all the hard work these days was worth it.

 

But some people doubted the effectiveness of the prescription.

 

Imperial Physician Mu repeatedly assured: “I have used this medicine on a pair of grandfather and grandson. The medicine is absolutely reliable. If anything goes wrong, I will bear all the consequences.”

 

After hearing this, all the old doctors secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

 

Imperial Physician Mu sneered in his heart. He knew that these people were afraid of being blamed, and they were as cunning as monkeys. Next, Ji Xiaoshan was responsible for arranging people to copy the prescriptions, while Imperial Physician Mu followed the doctors in the clinic to examine several seriously ill patients.

 

At this time, the area outside the clinic was filled with sick people. Inside and outside the clinic, they were all three layers deep, each holding a torch, lighting up the entire Jizhou city.

 

Ji Xiaoshan remembered his daughter’s words that masks can prevent the disease, so he flew onto the roof and shouted, “Everyone, cover your mouth and nose with cloth strips, and don’t let people around you get infected with the disease.”

 

This time, the people were unusually obedient.

 

Seeing this, Ji Xiaoshan’s eyes were red again, and he comforted them: “Don’t worry, we will definitely get through this difficult time, just like we did more than 20 years ago, and drive the disease out of Jizhou City like we drove out bandits.”

 

“We believe in General Ji.” The crowd cheered.

 

At this moment, Ji Xiaoshan’s majestic figure was like a god in the hearts of the people. He was the undefeated god of war, and also the reborn parent of millions of people.

 

It was Sheng Yu’s fortune and blessing to have him around.

 

That night, the people in the city did not sleep. The doctors in the various clinics got busy after receiving the prescriptions, and after getting the medicine, they asked the servants to boil it.

 

When there was a shortage of manpower, the medicine packets were distributed directly to patients with mild illnesses, allowing them to boil the medicine themselves.

 

Busy but orderly, urgent but not chaotic.

 

—

 

In the middle of the night, An Yan was suddenly awakened by a sound. When he woke up, he found that it was the old woman who got up to go to the bathroom.

 

In the dim moonlight, An Yan watched the old woman groping her way to Madam Ji’s room. After realizing that she had gone to the wrong place, she quietly muttered, “Oh, my eyesight is getting worse.”

 

An Yan was about to close his eyes and take a nap, when he suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark. He was immediately frightened.

 

He kicked Ji Yushu to wake him up. Ji Yushu had not fallen asleep to begin with, and had opened his eyes before he kicked him. An Yan’s mysterious voice came to his ears: “Hey, big brother, do you feel that there is a pair of scary eyes watching us in the dark?”

 

Ji Yushu carefully sensed for a moment, and apart from seeing the old woman getting up to go to the bathroom, he didn’t notice anything unusual. He said angrily, “Do you think it’s fun to scare people?”

 

An Yan’s expression became serious, and he knew that Ji Yushu didn’t believe him. He snorted, “Tsk, I told you there was danger out of kindness, you thought I was scaring you, okay, if something goes wrong, you’ll cry.”

 

Anyway, he only has eyes for the little monster. If something goes wrong, he will be the first to run away with the little monster.

 

After hearing this, Ji Yushu became more serious. After all, An Yan was good at hiding his abilities, and maybe he had sensed the other party’s aura.

 

It was also possible that wild animals from the mountains had run down to eat.

 

In the second half of the night, Ji Yushu’s whole heart was in Madam Ji’s room. He would open his eyes and take a look as soon as there was any movement.

 

And so, the first night in the village passed peacefully.

 

The servants got up early to work, and the old man went to work in the fields earlier than everyone else. The old woman took out two pieces of clothes and said she wanted to wash them in the nearby river.

 

Madam Ji was afraid of her falling, so she asked the maid to take her place, but she said, “It’s okay. I’ve lived here for many years and never fell.”

 

After saying that, she walked out with the wooden barrel, and bumped into An Yan who was entering the yard. The wild fruit in An Yan’s hand fell directly to the ground.

 

An Yan frowned and bent down to pick up the fruit.

 

He gave the old woman a slightly warning look.

 

An Yan was stunned and found it very funny.

 

It was as if he was going to kill someone for a piece of fruit.
