I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

Chapter 376 - 376 Voodoo



376 Voodoo

Lin Suisui wanted to stay in the Fang family’s shop for lunch, but things didn’t go according to plan. Peach, who had been following Yuan Niang, suddenly rushed over in a hurry. She said that something had happened at the medical center and asked her to go over immediately.

Doctor Luo and the others were watching over the medical center now. Under normal circumstances, there wouldn’t be any major problems. This was the first time he had come to look for her in such a hurry.

...

Lin Suisui didn’t dare to stay any longer. She stood up and bid farewell to Fang Liu before leaving for the medical center.

When Lin Suisui alighted from the carriage in the alley behind the medical center, Yuan Niang was already waiting at the door.

“Madam, you’re finally here.” Upon seeing Lin Sui, Yuan Niang quickly walked over and told her about the situation in the medical center. “We encountered a few patients with strange conditions. Doctor Luo and the others went up to check their pulses, but they didn’t find anything amiss.

It would have been fine if it were anything else, but there were six patients with similar symptoms, so Doctor Luo is afraid that…”

Yuan Niang looked around warily. Although there was no one around, she was still very careful not to say that name. She just looked at Lin Suisui quietly and said to her with a knowing expression, “It’s about what you experienced in the refugee camp previously.”

“Where’s Doctor Luo?” When Lin Suisui heard Yuan Niang’s words, she became nervous. However, she didn’t panic. Instead, she asked about Doctor Luo’s whereabouts.

“Doctor Luo is waiting upstairs. I’ll bring you there.” Yuan Niang brought Lin Suisui up to the third floor to see Doctor Luo, who was waiting there.

“Let’s skip the formalities for now and get down to business first.” Lin Suisui reached out to stop Doctor Luo, who was about to bow when he saw her, and she said straightforwardly, “What’s going on?”

Doctor Luo nodded and told Lin Suisui the entire story, “These patients were sent over the day before yesterday and the people who sent them over were bailiffs from the county governor’s residence.

These people were all members of a caravan from the north. They said that they had encountered trouble on the way and that the people from the patrol camp outside had encountered them, so they were saved and sent to the county governor’s residence for interrogation.

In the northern region, there are many caravans like this every year and they’re considered lucky to have survived.

Therefore, the county governor didn’t pay much attention to it at first. However, the day before yesterday, these people suddenly began to develop high fevers, and right on the heels of that, their limbs began to show signs of stiffness.”

When Doctor Luo thought of the situation of the most seriously ill person, he couldn’t help but shiver and he felt a chill run down his spine. “You didn’t see it, but the most seriously ill person has already…”

“Let’s go and take a look.” Lin Suisui stood up as she spoke and gestured for Doctor Luo to lead the way.

Although Doctor Luo had hoped that Lin Suisui would come over quickly before she came, now that she was really here, Doctor Luo was a little hesitant.

After all, this illness was very abnormal. It would be fine if it was just an ordinary difficult illness, but if it was the plague…

“We both know how to deal with the plague. Regardless of whether those people contracted the plague or not, we’ll just take precautions according to how we dealt with the plague,” Lin Suisui said as she gestured for Bai Guo to bring the mask she had prepared long ago. She also put on a tight bib.

Not only Lin Sui, but even Doctor Luo made the same precautions. Then, the two of them walked towards the room where these patients were placed on the second floor.

Although according to Doctor Luo and the others’ description, Lin Suisui was already mentally prepared, when she really saw the few people who were infected this time, she was shocked yet also relieved.

“This isn’t the plague.” After Lin Suisui briefly checked the situation of a few people, she stood up with certainty and turned to Doctor Luo. “This is the shaman’s voodoo.”

Lin Suisui turned to look at Doctor Luo and said with certainty, “However, the symptoms are not purely that of voodoo. There should be something else mixed in.”

Over the past few days, Lin Suisui had been studying the northern barbarian language and related shaman techniques, so she was familiar with the situation in front of her. It was the symptoms of shaman voodoo.

“Voodoo?” Doctor Luo was stunned. It wasn’t that he hadn’t heard of those strange things before, but this was the first time he had personally seen them.

This was…

How terrifying!

“Yes, the shaman priest’s Dharma artifacts are all made of human bodies.” Lin Suisui nodded at Doctor Luo as she explained to him in a low voice, “In order to obtain a complete human skin or a complete human bone, the shaman priest has a unique disposal technique.

As for the people in front of us, they’re probably the materials for the human skin drum.”

“Human skin drum?” Doctor Luo’s scalp went numb and he looked at Lin Suisui Sui in shock.

Lin Suisui pointed at the shrinking limbs of the most seriously ill patient as she explained to Doctor Luo, “Look, the first part to shrink are the limbs, and the next to shrink is the head.

As the head shrinks, the entire body will be supported. Then, all the organs inside will shrink and disappear before being absorbed by the flesh. Slowly, even the flesh will disappear and shrivel before eventually forming a complete human skin drum.”

A Dharma artifact made with such cruel methods would actually be used to pray for blessings from the heavens…

Who would have thought of that?

“However, the method of making a human skin drum is very cumbersome. If one isn’t careful, one might fail. Therefore, in order to ensure success, they usually sacrifice as many slaves as possible.

After all, in the eyes of those northern barbarians, slaves are lesser than pigs and dogs. They can’t even be considered humans.” As Lin Suisui spoke, she had already circled around the beds of the patients before finally stopping in front of Doctor Luo. “But these people don’t look like slaves.”
