Chapter 39  

Chu Qingzhi shrugged. “Who told you to come without telling me?”

A few beast faces stared at him. Under the hazy moonlight, it was very scary. Tang Jinghong asked, “Why are they staying by your side?”

Chu Qingzhi avoided the questions she didn’t want to answer. “Why are you here?”

Tang Jinghong took a breath and said, “I’m here to ask you to treat the soldiers. The consultation fee will be 100 taels. What do you think…?”

Chu Qingzhi was short of money now, so she agreed readily. “Deal!”

…

Fang Zerong paced nervously at the entrance of the army camp. On the one hand, he was looking forward to seeing the Divine Doctor, and on the other hand, he was also nervous to see the Divine Doctor.

The soldier at the door suddenly shouted, “General!”

Fang Zerong suddenly looked over, and then… the light in his eyes was extinguished, filled with disappointment. Why did the general bring a little girl back?

Tang Jinghong brought Chu Qingzhi towards Fang Zerong and introduced her to him. “She’s the doctor who gave me the prescription. Her name is Chu Qingzhi.”

“Qingzhi, he’s a military doctor in the army, Fang Zerong.”

Chu Qingzhi bowed gracefully. “Greetings, Doctor Fang.” Fang Zerong sized up Chu Qingzhi. Although she was a little girl, she gave him an unfathomable feeling. Strange, really strange. “Hello, Miss Chu.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Can you take me to see those sick soldiers?”

Fang Zerong could accept the fact that the Divine Doctor he wanted to see was this… little girl in front of him.

Without revealing his thoughts, Fang Zerong said politely, “Miss Chu, this way please.”

Under Fang Zerong’s lead, Chu Qingzhi arrived at the tent where the soldiers were quarantined.

Fang Zerong took out two handkerchiefs. He handed one to Chu Qingzhi. “Miss Chu, wear these to prevent getting infected.”

Chu Qingzhi stopped in her tracks and frowned slightly. “They have an infectious disease?”

Fang Zerong knew that the girl in front of him was not a Divine Doctor. When she heard that there was an infectious disease, she did not dare to go in. “Yes, one will infect two, two will infect four, but it’s not very infectious. It takes a long time for one to get infected.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded and strode forward into the quarantine tent.

Fang Zerong was stunned.

Shouldn’t she retreat in fear? Why did she go in?

He went after her.

As Chu Qingzhi walked, she asked, “What are their symptoms?” Fang Zerong wanted to test Chu Qingzhi, so he said without holding back, “They vomit and have diarrhea, and their fever won’t subside.”

Chu Qingzhi pondered for a moment. Why did this illness sound like a heat stroke?

Fang Zerong carefully observed Chu Qingzhi’s reaction.

Tang Jinghong wanted to follow them in, but he was stopped by the soldiers. “General, if you fall sick, the army camp will be in chaos.”

Tang Jinghong couldn’t be willful, so he waited outside.

Chu Qingzhi lifted the curtain and walked in.

The place where men lived really did not smell good. It was very stuffy and hot. Chu Qingzhi almost fainted from the smell. She could not help but complain. If she recuperated in such an environment, she would fall sick even if she was not sick.

She walked closer to someone and took his pulse. It was really a heatstroke!

“Everyone who can move, go outside. Those who can’t…” She turned around and said to Fang Zerong, “Get people to carry them outside. Don’t stay in this tent anymore.”

Fang Zerong was puzzled. “Miss Chu, why is that?”

Chu Qingzhi said helplessly, “They didn’t have an infectious disease. They had a heat stroke or fell sick because it was too hot.”

Hearing that it was not an infectious disease, Fang Zerong was overjoyed. However, on second thought, Chu Qingzhi was not the Divine Doctor. Could her words be trusted?

Hence, he hesitated.

Seeing that Fang Zerong was hesitating, Chu Qingzhi understood that it was another person who suspected her medical skills. She couldn’t help but grind her teeth. “Why? Are you suspecting that I’m lying?”

Fang Zerong immediately said that he did not dare. Although she was a little girl, her aura was not weak. When she stared at him, it was as if the blood in his entire body was about to freeze.

“Miss Chu, you’ve misunderstood. I’m thinking of where to place these people.”
