"How could you do this? The person is almost dying, and you still want to prick them with a needle. How can you be so heartless?!" A female voice rang out, seemingly from one of the group of protective personnel.
Ye Lang didn't speak, his brows furrowed slightly, as he was troubled by the situation. However, others didn't understand what he was doing; they only saw him holding the patient's hand without moving.
"Brother, whatever your purpose in coming here, now that you're here, you should know that we can't go out anymore! In order to prevent this plague from spreading, we are prepared to sacrifice ourselves," one of them said in an opening statement.
"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point!" Ye Lang said casually. These words had no effect whatsoever, and even a clueless person like Ye Lang knew the situation.
"... It's quite a coincidence that we're all in the same boat..."
"..." Ye Lang didn't speak. He had completely ignored this person, who was still talking nonsense.
"Bu Xiu, you really are a chatterbox! Let me ask you, friend, how did you get in here?" someone couldn't help but shout.
"You've come in, haven't I told you? You guys are so annoying!" Ye Lang said.
"How did you get in here?!" Who's asking you that? They're asking how you broke the barrier.
"Step by step, do I need to explain that too?" Ye Lang asked blankly.
"..." Everyone was speechless, wondering if this boy was a fool.
"Young Master, they're asking how you broke through the barrier and came in directly from there," Alvin said, shaking Ye Lang head.
"This is very simple. This barrier is composed of twenty-seven water defense arrays, wind arrays..." Ye Lang began to explain the composition of the barrier, then its drawbacks, and finally the techniques he used.
Everyone present was stunned by what they heard, wondering who this kid was.
While they were talking, Ye Lang continued to treat the patients and had already begun acupuncture treatment. This made the woman think that this man was too cruel, using so many needles to stab people.
"Alright, stop talking, I understand!!" Someone couldn't help but interrupt Ye Lang's explanation because he couldn't understand it at all. He figured only alchemists would be interested in listening to it; everyone else would fall asleep.
"Do you really understand? It seems your alchemy skills are quite good," Ye Lang praised the man.
"I don't understand how this was done. All I know is that you are an expert in alchemy, and you can break this barrier. Knowing that is enough!" the man said, his head aching.
"Oh, is that so? Then you can leave now. Don't keep bothering me. You wouldn't let me in before, and now you're asking all sorts of questions." Ye Lang waved his hand and moved on to the next patient, prioritizing those in critical condition.
That patient from earlier will gradually recover as long as he rests!
The patient's improvement does not mean that Ye Lang has mastered the treatment of the disease, or at least he has not mastered which medicine or treatment method to use.
The reason this patient was able to recover was because of Ye Lang's acupuncture skills. He knew an acupuncture therapy called "Golden Needle Acupoint Transference," a secret technique that could cure all kinds of diseases, but it consumed too much time and greatly depleted Internal Energy. It could only be used in critical situations and could not be applied to this kind of plague.
To solve this plague, we must find the cause of the disease and find the drugs and methods to treat it!
Of course, if all else fails, Ye Lang will have no choice but to save as many as he can...
Those who have undergone Golden Needle Acupoint Transference will be unable to move for a short period of time, seemingly more severely affected than before. This is because this method stimulates a person's potential, and stimulating too much of it is like a serious illness.
Because of this, at this time, no one knew that Ye Lang had already cured one person; instead, they believed that this person was one step closer to death after being tricked by Ye Lang!
Of course, at this time, no one noticed this situation. They were just wondering why Ye Lang said that he and his people hadn't allowed him to come in before.
"Have we met before?" those people asked.
At this moment, Alvin knew that Ye Lang must be confused, so he answered for him, "I haven't seen you before. I'm sorry, our Young Master may think that you are the same group of people as the outsiders, since you are all dressed the same."
"..." The people fell silent. This kid could easily handle such a difficult barrier, yet he couldn't even distinguish himself from others. Although they were dressed the same, there were still significant differences.
I really don't know if he's a fool, a genius, or both!
"Keep an eye on your Young Master, don't let him go out again, and don't let anyone else out. We finally managed to contain this plague, otherwise even more people will die!!" That was what those people were most afraid of. They weren't so concerned about Ye Lang coming in, but about him not going out again and not letting anyone else out.
Speaking of this plague, they all felt lingering fear!
When the plague began to spread, these refugees were still in the city, so many of them were believers in the Holy City.
Fortunately, the Holy City is a place where doctors gather, and they quickly discovered the problem and set about dealing with it, isolating those who were infected.
However, even though they discovered it quickly, the plague was spreading too fast and there were too many of them. If they missed a few, it would spread again.
It took several efforts to bring the situation under control; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
However, even so, the number of infected people reached a terrifying 70,000 to 80,000. Of course, there were also those who were suspected but were not actually infected.
At this point, it was better to kill than let the guilty go free, so the Holy City erected this great barrier to seal off these 70,000 to 80,000 people. After taking all necessary protective measures, the physicians Light Magic were allowed to enter, along with the believers to maintain order.
As for the refugees, they were naturally driven out of the Holy City, and the Holy City was isolated from them. Refugees who arrived later were also not allowed to enter the city!
Of course, the Holy City still prepared relief supplies to sustain the lives of the refugees, and at the same time, they sent people to maintain order, the patrol teams wearing protective gear that Ye Lang had seen before.
Once someone is suspected, the patrol team will take them inside the barrier, where doctors and others will go in to study how to treat them.
