Chapter 302 - 302 Cadaveric Rash
302 Cadaveric Rash
“We’re not sure yet, but it might be an illness that will spread to others, or it might be a plague,” Gu Qingxue said with a cold expression.
Tie Daniu’s and Shopkeeper Huang’s expressions changed at the same time.
“Lady Gu, are you serious? This kind of thing can’t be used as a joke. Once it’s spread and causes panic, it’ll be spreading rumors and causing trouble. It’ll be a big crime!” Huang Rongfa said anxiously to Gu Qingxue.
Once the news of the plague got out, it would definitely cause panic among the people. It was not a joke.
According to the law, anyone who spread rumors and caused trouble would be charged with a serious crime. They would be imprisoned and even executed if the situation was serious!
“I’m 80% sure that it’s the plague, but I still need to confirm it. It’s also because I don’t want to cause a panic, that’s why I closed my door to avoid the guests.” Gu Qingxue could not help but frown as she spoke.
Although she had let the patients go back, the infection rate of the cadaveric rash was extremely high, and it could be spread with just a little contact.
If Madam Liu really had the cadaveric rash, then everyone who had come into contact with her had a very high possibility of being infected.
Tie Daniu was completely dumbfounded. He lowered his head to look at Madam Liu who was drowsy. After glaring at her, he said, “No, I don’t believe that my mother has the plague! I see that you’re just a charlatan. I’m going to take my mother back!”
“You can’t leave. Once your mother has the plague, you’re likely already sick. However, this plague has a few days incubation period, and your body hasn’t shown any symptoms. It’s really the best time to receive treatment,” Gu Qingxue looked at Tie Daniu, she tried her best to speak to him in a gentle tone, “I know that you must be very uneasy. However, I hope that you and I believe in me. I’ve seen this kind of plague before, and I know some ways to treat it. I can help you and help your mother.”
Tie Daniu looked at Gu Qingxue and shook his head. He said firmly, “I don’t believe it! I just don’t believe it! Don’t lie to me with these words. I’m leaving.”
Gu Qingxue could not help but frown when she saw Tie Daniu grab Madam Liu’s arm and was about to leave.
She guessed that Tie Daniu would not believe her words so easily.
Huang Rongfa acted in time and grabbed tie Daniu’s arms, “Brother Tie, Lady Gu won’t force you to stay here for no reason. Please cooperate with us. If Lady Gu’s diagnosis is wrong, we are willing to compensate you for all your losses!”
“I don’t want compensation. I want to leave with my mother! Let me go! Someone is kidnapping me!” Tie Daniu was a farmer, so he was extremely strong. He struggled angrily, “What right do you have to trap me? I didn’t commit a crime. You don’t have the right to trap me. Let me go!”
Gu Qingxue took a deep breath and took out the jade dragon pendant from her bosom.
While Tie Daniu was struggling, Huang Rongfa accidentally tore his sleeve, exposing his arm.
There were many green and black spots on tie Daniu’s arm, which seemed to show signs of protruding outward.
Gu Qingxue looked at the marks on Tie Daniu’s arm, and her heart, which had been hanging in the air, was immediately raised to her throat.
It was as she had expected.
She was sure that the marks on Tie Daniu’s body were the signs that would appear before the cadaveric rash. Although the cadaveric rash had not been exposed yet, the fact that Tie Daniu was infected with the cadaveric rash was already a certainty. She was almost sure that the mother and son had the same infectious disease.
