Chapter 247 The Origin of the Strange Disease
Next to the head of the Wang family sat a traveling doctor. With his experience traveling far and wide, Zhang Mo immediately realized that this person was no ordinary person.
She knew that everyone in the world was pursuing immortality, and nowadays, the ways to prolong life and immortality were flourishing and each one had its own unique ability.
Even many ways to prolong life and gain immortality were derived from one of them. This traveling doctor had three notable features. First, there was a strand of strange hair mixed in his hair, and this strand of long hair of strange color was woven from longevity grass. Second, the hair crown on his head was purple-black. Third, his face was pale and his limbs were thin.
Combining these three points, this person is most likely a "sick doctor".
The so-called sick doctors are a general term for a certain type of people. In short, they treat illnesses not for money, but only to get sick. After every serious illness, there will be a certain degree of youthfulness, that is, longevity.
There are naturally extremely complex principles involved. If ordinary people imitate this, they will die without a burial place. This "disease treatment" involves a variety of knowledge, and can be seen in various shadows, such as: martial arts, incense, Buddhism...
Zhang Mo's mind flashed, and she sneered, "The origin of this disease is unclear, and you dare to get involved. Are you trying to save your life? Or... did you spread this disease on purpose?"
Her voice was as clear as a yellow oriole, very pleasant to the ear, but with a hint of questioning. The doctor who was helping the patriarch of the Wang family feel his pulse looked up and said, "Who is this..."
"Dayan Huazong, Zhang Mo." Zhang Mo bowed.
The doctor smiled and said, "Miss Zhang, you have misunderstood. I am here only to treat illnesses, not to infect them. Doctors like me are very lucky to have a short life, so we dare not be so reckless and infect others. As for spreading the disease, that is even more impossible. I am a good person."
Zhang Mo replied calmly: "Cherish your life? I don't know whose slogan is: sacrifice your life to gain life."
The two did not talk too much about this topic. As the saying goes, a long illness makes a famous doctor. This saying is actually very true when applied to the doctor. According to the doctor's diagnosis, the root cause of this disease is probably in the pollen forest.
Zhang Mo sneered when she heard this. There had been many speculations about this sudden appearance of the disease. There were rumors that it came from the pollen forest, but in Zhang Mo's opinion, this was still debatable.
She strode forward and felt the pulse of the patriarch of the Wang family, only to find that his pulse was weak and his breath was barely noticeable. She frowned and asked the traveling doctor to help the patriarch of the Wang family up. She used her internal energy and pressed her left thumb against the patriarch's fontanelle, then patted his back with her right hand.
Immediately.
The head of the Wang family spat out a mouthful of black blood, staining the bedding black.
There were white worms wriggling in the black blood, which was very disgusting.
The doctor praised repeatedly: "Ms. Zhang is a great martial artist! She is really amazing!"
Zhang Mo glanced at the doctor calmly and did not respond. Instead, she said, "The situation is not optimistic. Mr. Wang has worms in his internal organs and is seriously ill. Do you have any way to cure him?"
The doctor shook his head and Zhang Mo frowned slightly. Her mission when she went down the mountain was to find the source of the disease and calm the chaos caused by this matter. So far, she was at a loss and had no clue.
She ordered the two disciples who had come down the mountain with her to investigate the situation in the palace. They found out one by one that the two disciples were a man and a woman. They had good martial arts skills and could be considered masters in the martial arts world.
She stayed and talked with the doctor to learn the details of the disease and to find out more about the doctor. The "doctor" did not hide anything from her and told her that the disease was extremely painful and the initial symptoms were sores and ulcers in the mouth and tongue.
Then, warts appeared in the anus and bleeding occurred...
Hear the words.
Zhang Mo frowned. She didn't know much about medicine, but she could still feel the horror of this disease. The mouth and tongue are for entry, and the anus is for exit. If both mouths are infected, with no entry and no exit, you can imagine how torturous it is.
She could even speculate that after that, the virus would spread from the outside to the inside. Facts proved that her guess was correct. The doctor said, "Then it became difficult to breathe, the stomach bled, the virus attacked the five internal organs, and blood blisters appeared on the back."
The doctor looked at her with a teasing expression, and said, "By the way, tell Miss Zhang quietly that this disease... is contagious."
Zhang Mo looked at him coldly, "You don't have to scare me, I already knew about this."
She has internal energy to protect her body, so it is not easy for evil spirits to invade her.
The martial arts at this time are far different from the previous ones. If anyone dares to underestimate it, he will definitely suffer a great loss.
The doctor grinned and looked Zhang Mo up and down.
Zheng——
All I heard was the sound of a sword.
Zhang Mo placed the long sword on the doctor's neck. She had a cold expression and it was obvious that she did not have a good impression of the doctor.
It's not her fault.
Doctors and the like are indeed not good people. They will test diseases on humans, and if they are malicious, they will even spread the plague.
It's just that doctors are a kind of people, there are bad ones and good ones, some do all kinds of bad things, while others travel thousands of miles to practice medicine, but no matter how Zhang Mo looks at it, she doesn't think that this traveling doctor is a good person.
The doctor withdrew his gaze awkwardly, with a fawning look on his face. Zhang Mo felt bored, so she glanced him up and down and then started wandering around the palace.
Within an incense stick of time, the two disciples came over to him and reported the information they had discovered.
Zhang Mo pinched her chin and frowned. From the current perspective, this strange disease might really have come from the pollen forest.
It is a forbidden area, rarely visited by anyone, comparable to the desolate fire land.
There is indeed a strange disease circulating in the Desolate Fire Land, which seems to be a disease called "inflammatory poison", but there is no strange disease in the Pollen Forest, because she has been there several times and has never heard of anyone coming out with a strange disease.
Could it be...
Appearing out of nowhere?
Zhang Mo frowned, her mind was full of complicated thoughts. She walked out of the Wang family residence while thinking. She remembered a rumor, a rumor that was not widely circulated:
A young man from Lijiu City went to the wild jungle to play with a prostitute in the middle of the night looking for excitement. It should have been a night of endless spring, but they went to the wrong place and entered the pollen maze.
I got lost inside and walked for several days before entering a strange space. It was a very strange feeling. I was in a jungle full of flowers one second ago, but the next second I entered another place where thunder was raging and it seemed like the end of the world.
……
In the end, the young man somehow walked out of the pollen forest, but the brothel girl did not have such a good fate. She was attacked by a wild beast and died in the forest.
This rumor was not widely circulated and not many people knew about it. Zhang Mo once suspected that all of this was deliberately fabricated by the young master in order to get rid of the suspicion of murder.
Or maybe he was poisoned by pollen and became confused.
But now it seems.
Maybe there is something strange about that pollen maze?
Thunder raged, as if destroying the world? Was it an illusion, or was it true? Was this strange disease that suddenly appeared related to it?
Many questions popped up in Zhang Mo's mind.
His eyes flickered.
