Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 281

Chapter 281: Solved The Plague
At the same time, news of Duan Yixin’s and others’ arrival spread throughout the refugee camp. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the emergency infirmary, the chief physician and the captain came out to greet them.

“Wangye, why are you here today?” The captain asked after saluting them.

Chi Xinru handed the box full of medicine to the captain, and Xuan Ruiquan said, “We are here to deliver this medicine.”

When he heard this, the captain was delighted, but the chief physician frowned. Looking at their expressions, Duan Yixin knew that something must have happened in the refugee camp in the past few days.

She looked at the chief physician and asked, “Did something happen here these days?”

The chief physician hesitated and said, “We have discovered that this plague is incurable.”

Duan Yixin and Xuan Ruiquan exchanged glances after hearing this. Although she had a guess in her mind, Duan Yixin still asked, “Why do you say that?”

The chief physician lowered his voice and said, “Physician Xin, I have heard about you. On the day we arrived, most of the patients had recovered, and through their mouths, we learned about your skills. However, these patients became ill again the next day. This time, most of them died within just a few hours of becoming ill.”

After listening to the chief physician’s explanation, Duan Yixin pulled Xuan Ruiquan aside and asked in a low voice, “Do you think those patients died of poisoning?”

Xuan Ruiquan nodded and whispered, “It’s very possible. As you said before, everyone has different symptoms and needs different medicines. Now that we know that the cause of that problem is the poison given to them by Li Junwang, your medicine should be able to cure them.”

Seeing her worried look, Xuan Ruiquan held her hand and said, “Don’t worry. Believe in yourself. Your medicine will save them.”

Duan Yixin stared at him for a while and nodded, “Mhm.”

After the two of them briefly chatted for a few words, they walked back. Duan Yixin looked at the chief physician and said, “Since you said there is no cure for the plague, how about we try my medicine?”

The chief physician was unwilling to use human life to test the medicine, but he really had no way to cure them. He sighed and said depressedly, “Then let’s try Physician Xin’s medicine.”

Since the chief physician agreed, the captain said nothing more. With the help of physicians and soldiers, Duan Yixin distributed the medicine quickly.

Three hours later, a soldier came to the tent where Duan Yixin was teaching the chief physician how to make the medicine.

Seeing his excited look, the chief physician quickly put down his work and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong?”

The soldier took a few deep breaths and said, “Chief Physician, it worked!”

Upon hearing this, the chief physician rushed to the soldier, grabbed his shoulders, and asked in disbelief, “Is this medicine really work?!”

The soldier nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and replied excitedly, “Yes! The first batch of patients who took the medicine have recovered. Now, everyone is in an uproar and surrounds the infirmary to get the medicine.”

After the soldier said this, the chief physician turned to Duan Yixin and said, with tears in his eyes, “Thank you, Physician Xin. You are truly the savior of my Xia Empire!”

Duan Yixin did not dare to take credit and said quickly, “This is the result of everyone’s hard work.”

The chief physician nodded and returned to his seat.

Looking at his excited face, Duan Yixin said, “I have taught you how to make the plague’s medicine. Now that we know the medicine is effective, I need to go to other refugee camps to deliver medicine.”

The chief physician knew the importance of speed when dealing with a plague, so he did not attempt to make her stay. He personally sent her out, clasped his hands, and bowed deeply toward Duan Yixin, “Physician Xin, thank you for saving the common people.”

Duan Yixin could not accept the bow of a man who could be her grandfather, so she took a step aside to avoid his bow. She helped the chief physician up and said, “Please take care of the patients for me.”

The chief physician nodded and said, “See you again if we are destined. Take care, Physician Xin.”

“Chief Physician, take care.”

Outside the infirmary, Xuan Ruiquan saw her coming. He looked at the captain and said, “I will report the situation here to the emperor and ask him to appoint someone to take over as the local county magistrate. In the meantime, the assistant will be responsible for handling administrative work until the new local county magistrate takes office.”

The captain clasped his fists and said, “Yes, Wangye. This subordinate will convey your order to the assistant.”

After settling the matter with the local government, Xuan Ruiquan walked up to Duan Yixin and asked, “Are you done here?”

Duan Yixin nodded, “Yes. The medicine is effective, but I think we should distribute it to other places.”

Xuan Ruiquan held her hand and said, “Leave this matter to me. As long as you give me the method of making the medicine, I will ensure that all patients can get it.”

Although she doesn’t quite understand Xuan Ruiquan’s influence and power as Yan Junwang, she trusts him. She nodded at him and said, “Mhm. I’d prepare the detailed instructions for you.”

Everything was settled here, and the two returned to the carriage. When Chi Xinru saw them coming, she called out to her elder brother, “Elder Brother, wake up. Xin Xin and General Xuan came back.”

Chi Xiyou woke up and rubbed his eyes. He yawned, turned to look at Duan Yixin, and asked, “Xin Xin, are you done?”

Duan Yixin nodded, “Yes. We can go to the imperial capital city now?”

Chi Xiyou nodded and said, “All right.”

Duan Yixin smiled and said, “Thank you. Let’s set off while it’s still early.”
