Chapter 91: Strange Patient

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the second largest medical hall in the Imperial Capital, the Zheng Medical Hall had many visitors every day.

Coupled with Jin Xi and Jin Tao’s joint efforts to ostracize Liu Shimei, the work that should not have been done by Liu Shimei was thrown to her, making her busy from morning till night.

As a doctor’s apprentice, Du Gong would sometimes hand over some patients for them to see when he was too busy.

The patients who were easy to treat and who were decent were all in the hands of Jin Xi and Jin Tao. The rest of the patients who were left behind were all given to Liu Shimei.

Liu Shimei did not mind.

In front of death, everyone was equal, and in front of illness, no one was complacent.

Liu Shimei had always believed that no matter what kind of illness it was, as long as it was an illness, it did not matter. As a doctor, if she was afraid of dirt and stench, what kind of doctor was she? For example, she had treated Zhong Lang the last time.

However—

The patient today was too scary, right?

Compared to Zhong Lang’s disgusting vomiting and diarrhea, the person in front of her was obviously on another level!

This was an old man who was at least 50 years old. The age spots on his face were covered by a strange type of pus. Most of the pus was festering and flowing with pus.

The yellow and blood-red pus mixed together. Needless to say, it was disgusting and also very smelly.

These sores seemed to be on his body as well. All the exposed skin could see these terrible things. They must have spread all over his body!

For a doctor, the stench and filth were nothing. The main point was-

Infection!

“This is infectious, right?”

This was said by an odd-job worker in the emergency room. His face was filled with fear. “I got infected from outside. Will I be alright?”

Liu Shimei frowned and waved at him. “Don’t panic. Come here first. I’ll take your pulse.”

This worker was called Xu Xian. He was not old, about 16 or 17 years old. Usually, he worked in the main hall and was not under the control of any doctor. Relatively speaking, his hostility towards Liu Shimei was not that strong.

However, the workers in the hall were the same as the other worker. They did not dare to approach Liu Shimei, afraid that they would have the same fate as Zhang Two. He was beaten up, fired, and even had his arm chopped off!

“Miss Zhi Liu, if this kind of festering is infectious, will I be like him?”

When his life was at stake, how could he still care about Liu Shimei?

Liu Shimei did not answer his unproductive question and pressed her hand on his wrist.

Xu Xian was surprised. He looked at Liu Shimei, who was seriously taking his pulse, in surprise.

If he had told the doctors that he had come into contact with a patient who was suspected to have an empyesis, they might not have dared to examine him. However, this legendary and most terrifying Miss Zhi Liu had called him over to check his pulse without even thinking!

Liu Shimei heaved a sigh of relief after she finished feeling the pulse. “First, use wormwood to smoke your entire body. Then, go and wash yourself clean. During this period, don’t come into contact with anyone else.”

“Am I sick?” Hearing her say this, Xu Xian’s heart tightened.

Liu Shimei smiled and said, “I can’t tell now. It shouldn’t be infectious, but this is not absolute. Just in case, you’d better listen to me.”

“Of course, you don’t have to listen to me. But I won’t be responsible for what happens after that.”

After saying that, she did not bother with Xu Xian anymore. Instead, she took out a medicine bottle from a small bag that she carried with her. After swallowing a pill, she took out a mask and put it on.

There was also a pair of gloves.

Seeing her take out such equipment, not only was Xu Xian surprised, but the sick old man also widened his eyes in surprise!
