Chapter 1186 The Virus on Sister-in-Law Zhuo and Her Son

Qin Heng slowly approached the woman, his eyes filled with vigilance. He said, "If you are feeling unwell, you can go to the hospital to see a doctor or go to a pharmacy to have your pulse checked."

The woman said anxiously, "But the hospital and pharmacies are packed with people today, everyone is waiting to see a doctor and get medicine. I can wait, but my child can't wait any longer!"

Qin Heng turned his head and saw that as the woman spoke, a small hand suddenly emerged from the bag she was carrying on her back, covered with countless tiny red dots.

This scene shocked him, and he immediately shouted to Jiang Wenming inside, "Uncle, the epidemic they have seems to be much more serious than we thought!"

Hearing the shouts, Jiang Jiyun hurriedly instructed Xiao Qi and Qin Zhi to take Xiao Yuanbao into the room quickly.

Then, she rushed to the woman's side and quickly reached out to remove the clothes covering the child's head.

The child immediately began to cry after discovering that the covering on their head had been removed, making whimpering and screaming noises: "Waaah... Ahhh..."

Jiang Jiyun carefully observed the child's face; the red spots that had already appeared were now continuing to spread and grow larger.

Her heart tightened, and she turned to Jiang Wenming to report, "Uncle, the child's symptoms are quite similar to the virus that broke out in Xuancheng before."

Jiang Wenming strode over, his eyes fixed on the red dot on the woman's hand, which was expanding at an alarming rate.

He called out urgently, "Sister-in-law, come over here and sit down to rest. I'll go and prepare the medicine for your treatment right away."

The woman approached hesitantly, but dared not get too close to them, fearing she might spread the disease to others.

She replied softly, "Thank you for your concern, brother. My husband's surname is Zhuo, you can call me Sister-in-law Zhuo."

At this moment, Jiang Jiyun noticed that the child was struggling because he was itchy, possibly due to the onset of the illness.

So she said to Sister-in-law Zhuo, "Sister-in-law Zhuo, please put the baby down first, let me apply some ointment to relieve the itching."

As she spoke, she took a small porcelain bottle out of her pocket.

He handed the woman the half-pill that was left over from the medicine he had just given to Xiaoyuanbao, saying, "Try to get this medicine into the child's mouth."

Qin Rui took out a bamboo cup, poured in warm water, and handed it to him.

They saw that the woman's actions were exactly the same as Jiang Jiyun's just now; she simply poured the medicine down her throat.

After administering the medicine to the mother and son, Sister-in-law Zhuo was pleasantly surprised to find that the swollen blood blisters on her hands were gradually shrinking.

Only then did she believe that she and her child were out of danger, and she was filled with gratitude.

However, at that moment, Sister-in-law Zhuo suddenly knelt down, hugged the child in her arms tightly, and kowtowed to Jiang Wenming with a pleading expression.

With a sob in her voice, she pleaded, "My benefactor, please, please have mercy and give me some more medicine. I have three children and two elderly people at home, and I'm really worried that they might get infected too..."

Faced with this situation, Jiang Wenming shook his head helplessly and politely declined, saying, "I'm really sorry, the medicine can't be taken away by you. The dosage is different for everyone. You can bring them with you. This virus spreads extremely rapidly, and time is of the essence. Please go back and bring your people over quickly!"

Jiang Wenming was worried that if these medicines were delivered to the elderly, some of them might not take them themselves because they felt sorry for their children, and they might leave more of the medicine for their children to drink.

In this way, the medicine that could have saved lives would not have been able to work as intended, and the elderly would instead die.

The child in Sister-in-law Zhuo's arms gradually calmed down and drifted off to sleep.

She eagerly handed the child to Qin Rui and whispered, "Then I'll trouble you, young man, to help me hold my sixth child for a while. I need to hurry home and bring the rest of my family with me."

Qin Rui appeared somewhat flustered and at a loss. He awkwardly stretched out his hands, as if holding a cannonball that could explode at any moment, and tremblingly took the child.

Seeing his state, Qin Heng quickly stepped forward, took the sleeping child from Qin Rui's arms, and placed him on Jiang Jiyun's recliner.

Just as everyone was busy, Xiao Qi suddenly came out of the house and came to Jiang Jiyun's side, whispering, "Sister, Jinling City seems to be shrouded in a strange blood-red mist!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenming, who was standing next to him, looked up at the sky in alarm, but he quickly calmed down.

He said speechlessly, "Don't worry, Xiao Qi. It's just that the weather is gloomy today, and those are probably just dark clouds in the sky."

Only Jiang Jiyun understood the meaning behind Xiao Qi's words: if they could not save those innocent people from their suffering, the entire city of Jinling would probably become a desolate wasteland.

The blood-red mist that Xiaoqi saw above her head was the terrifying aura of death!

With a grave expression, Jiang Jiyun said to his uncle beside him, "Uncle, the speed at which these viruses spread may exceed our imagination. We are essentially fighting against the King of Hell!"

Qin Heng and the others skillfully continued grinding the medicinal herbs, completely focused, as they wanted to make as much antidote as possible as quickly as possible.

Qin Zhi gently placed the sleeping Xiao Yuanbao on the bed, then quickly came out to help everyone get busy.

At that very moment, Jiang Wenxun also received an urgent message from his cousin, Jiang Wenming.

Faced with this brand-new cordless phone, he was a little flustered, but he still managed to suppress his anxiety and pressed the answer button.

When he learned that the virus had spread rampantly in the city, Jiang Wenxun was extremely anxious. He immediately instructed the villagers who were helping out in the area to cook more herbal soup and told everyone to strengthen their self-protection measures to prevent infection.

Qu Jiang also reminded everyone: "If you feel any unusual symptoms, please do not take it lightly. You should go to a clinic for consultation as soon as possible or come here or to the old church for help."

The Taoist priest and his companions, who were originally immersed in a joyful atmosphere, turned ashen-faced upon hearing that the epidemic outside the city was out of control.

At this moment, everyone in quarantine here seems to be shrouded in a thick gloom, their mood becoming increasingly heavy and depressed.

As more and more people gathered around Jiang Jiyun's place, Shi Dayong, Lu Yi, and a few others also rushed back to help.

When Jiang Jiyun was exhausted, Xiao Qi came over to take over her work. Just as she sat down to rest, she saw Su Shitou, the former head chef of Zeng Family Restaurant, staggering over.

He grabbed Lu Yi's arm and cried, "Master Lu, our boss and his wife have been arrested!"
