BXBX NOVEL Chapter 225 Panic 2nd
It was perhaps because the senior man’s look was too horrible that the young lady, Lui Yiyun, turned her head to the side, avoiding looking at him.
"What happened?"
At the same time, a boy around 18 walked in with a bag of sundries. He first saw the senior lying on the floor. He was so shocked by his look and bag in his hands dropped on the floor. Inside of the bag were gingers and garlic.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" the boy running towards his grandfather, revealing a nervous look.
The landlady grabbed his arm, "Quickly go to the kitchen and tell your father to send your grandpa to the doctor!"
The boy flustered, took a look at the people in the surroundings and then rushed into the kitchen.
Soon after, the boss and his son carried the senior away and closed the noodle restaurant. The ladyboss followed them to the clinic.
At this moment, the infected person could be seen on the street.
The news spread around easily because the village was very small. A kind of weird and uncomfortable atmosphere could be sensed.
Some noisy sounds were heard from the street over there... The fifth one.
In a day...No, in half a day.
The sixth one.
...
"Doctor! Doctor! Please save my mum! You must cure her!"
"Doctor, my dad is too old and I know he’s dying but I don’t want him to suffer. Please cure him!"
"Step aside! Is the doctor here? Chaosheng, Chaosheng, for the sake of growing up together, you should save..."
The clinic was cramped enough during ordinary times when there were only children coming to take vaccinations. And now, there were 6-7 patients along with their relatives squeezing in this place. Lui Chaosheng and his assistant were too busy to care about everyone.
Moreover, the entrance of the small clinic was surrounded by bystanders. It was tightly packed.
The matter alarmed the village secretary Wu Qiushui. He came hurriedly with his assistant Little Du without having any resolution. Before long, the village head came here too.
"Doctor Lui, what’s going on, how come in such a short while..." Wu Qiushui’s face looked pale. He frowned, "Apart from them, I bumped into more infected people who are heading towards this place..."
Lui Chaosheng sighed, "Secretary, I’m completely frightened. I still haven’t found any clue about this!"
Wu Qiushui pulled Lui Chaosheng to one side, asking under his breath, "Doctor Lui, tell me honestly, is this some kind of disease like pestilence? Do they need to be quarantined?"
Lui Chaosheng shook his head, "Sorry, I really can’t diagnose anything by using the tools here. And we have no rights to quarantine them. If... if it is pestilence, I’m afraid..."
Wu Qiushui got what Lui Chaosheng meant immediately---If so, the disease might have already spread out!
Even more, he might have been infected. Just that the attack had yet to happen!
"Er... Secretary, the roads are blocked and the fishing boats have also been destroyed by something. We are unable to send the patients out now!"
"Don’t worry, I’ve contacted the county. The rescue team will come to clean up soon," Wu Qiushui said calmly.
Just right after this sentence, an impatient voice was heard from a patient’s relative who was eavesdropping or passing through, "What? We can’t go out?"
The village head voiced lowly, "Come here, didn’t you hear the secretary said that the rescue team will come over soon?"
But that person retreated, shaking his head, "No... This matter shouldn’t be hidden from everyone. Not even the secretary or village head could hide it!"
Seeing that person turning and leaving, the village head and Wu Qiushui pulled their long faces, calling, "Come back! Don’t spread the nonsense! Come back!"
But they couldn’t stop him.
Wu Qiushui and Village Head Lui looked at each other. They knew it had become troublesome and that guy would probably cause unnecessary panic!
...
"Listen! I heard that all the roads are blocked! Even the fishing boats are not working! Can any fisherman here testify that?"
A man shouted outside of the clinic.
"That’s true! I’ve called my dad and he said that the boats of my family could not be used! All boats are destroyed!"
Wow---!
"That’s a curse! Curse! The same thing happened that year! The curse has returned!"
"Aunt Shuihua, don’t scare us. What curse?"
"That’s really a curse! Really! I’ve witnessed it with my own eyes that year... Ah, one more person!"
Someone in the crowd who rode a bike was carrying an old man with that disease. He pushed the villagers aside to make way.
"All of us will be cursed, all of us will be cursed... I don’t want to stay here any longer, I don’t want to stay here any longer!"
The old woman named Shuihua burst through the crowd, stumbling and falling over. But she got up soon, running away as if escaping for her life.
Witnessing Aunt Shuihua’s frightened look and another old man being sent to the clinic, everyone looked at each other, but no one uttered a word.
They felt like mourners who were standing in silent and paying tribute to the deceased.
Outside of the crowd.
Lui Yiyun grabbed Ren Ziling’s arm, asking worriedly, "Sister Ren... You know about the curse Aunt Shuihua mentioned right? And... Did my father fall down somewhere... that was why we couldn’t find him?"
"Stay calm..." Ren Ziling took a deep breath, "Listen to me first, your dad may not get infected. But I know the curse, and it has something to do with your granny’s death."
The girl totally freaked out.
Luo Qiu looked at Ren Ziling who was explaining the whole matter to Lui Yiyun and frowned. You Ye who was at his side was narrowing her eyes.
Luo Qiu waved his hands secretly to stop You Ye. He stepped back slowly and sneaked into an alley.
The club boss met the young master of Taoism, Momo.
...
"What’s the matter?"
Luo Qiu looked at Momo. This master with blonde hair was calling him just now.
Momo took a deep breath, "Senior, you see those patients in the clinic right?"
Luo Qiu nodded, "And then?"
Momo voiced lowly, "Those patients are exactly the same the patients in Lui Village 45 years ago, right?"
"Yes, you’re right." Luo Qiu nodded.
Momo suddenly took half a step ahead, he hid his right palm at the back, saying, "But we know that the disease 45 years ago was not a curse but was caused by the objects hidden in that old female immortal’s house."
Luo Qiu glanced at Momo, shaking his head, "Are you suspecting that I spread out the liquid in the test tube and caused this chaos?"
Momo gritted his teeth, "Nothing like this happened in this village throughout these decades. And only we know about the liquid that was dug out today. However, there were people who got infected one after another within the same day... senior, please teach me how to not suspect you!"
"It’s not me."
Luo Qiu gave him a very simple reply. He didn’t attempt to dispute at all.
Momo yelled, "There’s nothing so coincidental in this world! I thought that you were a senior with profound skills. I didn’t expect you to commit such a cruel thing! I won’t let you continue spreading out that liquid! Let me enforce justice on behalf of heaven!"
The young master opened both of his hands. The yellow talismans were ejected one by one from the box that was placed on the ground and winded around his body.
The yellow talismans started to emit golden light accompanying by some noises like the sound of frying beans!
"I’m not your senior, you’re the one who calls me that." Luo Qiu shook his head, "And... you had better not bear any evil intentions."
