Chapter 1030 Fang Qiu Wants to Catch the Virus!
“When you have everything you want and you completely fall into the perfect world in your dream, everything in your dream will disappear in an instant, and it will become a h.e.l.l!”
After saying these words, a panic came into Old Yang’s eyes, and he continued, “In h.e.l.l, you will be surrounded by ferocious ghosts. You will be greatly frightened, you will flee in a panic, and you will fight desperately when you can’t escape. In the fight, you will smash everything within reach, and then you will die in horror under the continuous attacks of those ferocious ghosts!”
Hearing this, Fang Qiu was shocked!
“What the h.e.l.l is it?” he thought.
As a doctor, he’d known Chinese Medicine for a long time, but this was the first time he had heard of this disease!
“In this village, everyone has this experience every night.”
Seeing Fang Qiu’s shock, the old man explained, “The patients in this village survived because I’ve been there to help them calm down. But with time, their symptoms became more and more noticeable, and the medicine could no longer keep the symptoms at bay for too long.”
Old Yang let out a long sigh.
He looked out of the village and said, “What I’m worried about now is that the people in the surrounding villages had also been infected. It’ll be fine if we’re the only ones infected, but there would be terrible consequences.”
Hearing this, Fang Qiu was also frightened.
What the old man said was right. If the members of the Nirvana Organization attacked ordinary people, it would be horrible.
“I’ll go and take a look.”
Knowing the importance of this matter, Fang Qiu didn’t dare to delay any longer. After saying these words to the old man, he jumped into the air and flew out of the village quickly.
“What?” Old Young was greatly shocked by this.
“Why did a person who has been talking to him for such a long time suddenly fly? What the h.e.l.l was that? Awesome!” Old Young thought.
Although Old Young was shocked, he calmed down in a short time because he was old and experienced. He immediately praised, “What a guy! The young people nowadays are really awesome!”
Because Fang Qiu was in a hurry to check the situation of the surrounding villages, he didn’t have time to hide his true ident.i.ty. Anyway, he came as John Doe.
After flying out of the village, Fang Qiu quickly headed in one direction and soon arrived at another village. After entering the village and examining the villagers, he found the same symptoms in the people there!
“Nirvana!” Fang Qiu was furious.
Bringing the disease to the Leprosy Village had already made Fang Qiu very angry. Now the Nirvana Organization had attacked the surrounding villages as well. They had no regard for human life at all!
If no one stopped it, this virus would cause many villagers to die in a short time!
Nirvana Organization! They were simply homicidal maniacs!
“Beep...”
While Fang Qiu was overwhelmed with anger, the phone in his trouser pocket rang again.
He took it out and found that it was Li Ji’s call.
“h.e.l.lo?” Fang Qiu immediately answered the phone.
“The situation is much more serious than we antic.i.p.ated.”
Li Ji’s heavy voice came from the other end of the line. He said, “After receiving the information from you, the higher-ups immediately sent people to investigate. They found the nutrient drink you mentioned in a village populated by AIDS victims. They also found people with the exact same symptoms in that village. After examination, they found that the drink contains some kind of neurotropic virus that is difficult to cure!”
“A neurotropic virus?” Fang Qiu was shocked.
He didn’t expect that the other villages were also targeted by Nirvana Organization in addition to the villages here.
By now, the neurotropic virus had clearly spread to the villages all around the country.
The purpose of the Nirvana Organization was very clear.
They were going to kill people!
“I see,” Fang Qiu said. “I met an old man in Leprosy Village. Although his method can’t cure this disease, it can help preserve the lives of the people experiencing mild symptoms. I’m going to ask for his prescription now. Get ready. I’ll tell you the prescription later.”
“Alright, I’ll send someone to prepare for it right away.” Li Ji nodded.
Li Ji knew that this was the only prescription they could rely on even though it could not cure the disease. If he did not use this prescription, the people infected by the virus would eventually die. The most important thing now was to save the lives of these people. After that, they could start looking for a cure!
After the call, Fang Qiu immediately returned to Leprosy Village.
“What is it? What’s happening out there?” Old Yang asked.
He was still boiling the medicine. When Fang Qiu returned, Old Yang didn’t ask Fang Qiu how he could fly. Rather, he was more concerned about the fate of the other villages.
Fang Qiu said with a serious face, “Very serious. I found that some people had been infected with this virus in another village, and several of them have died. According to the news from other places, this disease has also been discovered in a village populated by AIDS patients. Now, this disease is spreading throughout the country. No one knows which village this disease will appear in. The situation is dire.”
“Has the situation become this bad?”
Old Yang became a little nervous and he immediately asked, “Do you think the government would be able to find?”
“They are working on it as we speak.”
Fang Qiu heaved a long sigh and said, “Our investigation suggests that the disease is caused by a neurotropic virus. It is very difficult to cure, but they’re working hard to find a cure as soon as possible.”
“It can’t be delayed.” Old Yang was very worried.
Fang Qiu nodded in agreement and continued, “I need you to give me your prescription, sir. Before the cure for this disease is developed, only your prescription can save the lives of these patients.”
“Alright!”
Old Yang didn’t hesitate and immediately told Fang Qiu about the prescription, important things that they had to pay attention to, as well as how and when to take the medicine.
Hearing this, Fang Qiu took out his mobile phone and called Li Ji, and then relayed Old Yang’s instructions verbatim.
Li Ji wrote down everything with a pen, and then he immediately began working on preparing the medicine according to the prescription.
After the call, Fang Qiu sat down next to Old Yang and was lost in thought.
“How should we treat this disease?
“How can we drive the neurotropic virus out of the patient’s body?
“There are many prescriptions and drugs for calming the nerves in Chinese Medicine, but these prescriptions can only calm the nerves. They can’t drive out viruses at all. Even if we use these prescriptions, it’s impossible to ease the symptoms of the patients. After all, the virus is too aggressive. Even if the patients take these medicine for calming the nerves, they will still dream, and they will still be nervous and begin to hallucinate.
“So, how do we deal with this virus?”
The more Fang Qiu thought about it, the more headaches he felt.
After thinking for a long time, he still couldn’t think of a solution.
“It seems like there’s only one way,” Fang Qiu said to himself.
Finally, Fang Qiu took a deep breath, stood up, and asked Old Young, “Sir, do you have any samples left of the nutrient drink causing the disease?”
“What are you going to do?” Old Yang asked.
“In ancient times, Shen Nong tasted all kinds of herbs. Because only when he tried it himself can he know the functions and toxicity of all kinds of herbs. Since we can’t find a way to cure this disease now, the only way is to try it personally. I want to catch the virus by myself. I want to know what it is and what its function is.”
Fang Qiu said with firmness, “Maybe this is the only way to find the best treatment option for this disease!”
“No, no!” Old Yang was shocked by Fang Qiu’s words. He shook his head and waved his hand repeatedly, saying, “It’s too risky for you to do this. You haven’t been infected yet, but if you consume that drink, you will definitely be infected. As long as you are alive, you can try to deal with it. What if you can’t find a cure after you try it yourself? That will ruin your whole life!”
“Sir, I understand what you said.”
Fang Qiu nodded seriously and said, “But I’ve made up my mind. Please tell me where the remaining samples of the drink are stored!”
Old Yang tried to persuade him again. “Please don’t act rashly.”
“Sir, I am not being impulsive. I’ve thought it over and I’ve made up my mind,” Fang Qiu said.
“Very well, then.” Old Yang let out a long sigh. He shook his head with a wry smile, and said, “Ever since I found that there was something wrong with the drink, I began collecting the remaining samples of the nutrient drink in the village. I wanted to destroy it, but I didn’t know the best way to do it without risking further infection, so I put all the samples in an iron box and buried the box.”
Fang Qiu had a look at the place that Old Yang was pointing at and found that the box was buried just in front of him and under these medicine pots.
Without saying a word, Fang Qiu put the medicine pots aside and then began to dig.
After digging for one meter, he finally saw the iron box Old Yang had referred to.
He opened the iron box.
Fang Qiu saw many bottles with necks as long as an adult finger and as thick as a ping-pong ball. The bottles were filled with some kind of white liquid that looked similar to milk. The bottles had labels with two words printed on them: “Nutrient Drink.”
“I can’t stop you if you insist on trying, but listen to me, one bottle is enough. Don’t drink too much. If you drink only one bottle and you don’t find the cure for this disease later, I can help you survive temporarily,” Old Yang said.
“How many bottles did Mr. Zheng drink?” Fang Qiu asked.
“Half a bottle,” Old Yang answered.
Fang Qiu nodded with understanding and said, “Okay. One bottle should be enough.”
As Fang Qiu spoke, he took out a bottle of nutrient food from the iron box and held it in his hand. Then, he buried the iron box again.
“Sir, I’m a lot stronger than you think, so I might end up hurting you and the other villagers under the influence of the drug, which is why I will be trying this drink in the mountains. If you hear anything tonight, don’t go up the mountain,” Fang Qiu told Old Yang.
“No, I’ll go with you.”
Old Yang immediately shook his head and continued, “There’s going to be a lot of my medicine left by the end of today. I’ll take a bowl of medicine and go up the mountain with you. If there’s something wrong, I can treat you in time!”
