Chapter 416: Seeing the Truth in Adversity

"Smallpox!"

Wu Zhi raised his hand, stared at the three red spots on his arm, and spit out these two words heavily.

He couldn't believe how this disease could appear in him? How did you get this disease? Why yourself?

Jin Lian crouched in front of Wu Zhi and wept silently, and An Daoquan also looked sad.

"Dr. An, is this really smallpox? Is it possible that other diseases are also the same symptoms? Wu Zhi forced himself to calm down for a while, and looked at An Daoquan like a life-saving straw.

Smallpox is a terminal disease with no solution, and Wu Zhiduo hopes that An Daoquan can hesitate and tell himself that it is not necessarily smallpox.

But An Daoquan obviously did not misdiagnose, he shook his head helplessly and said: "Daguanren, this is indeed smallpox, I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I have seen many cases of smallpox symptoms before, and I will not be wrong." This sentence was tantamount to a death sentence for Wu Zhi, and Wu Zhi's face suddenly turned to ashes after hearing it.

"However, the smallpox disease of the big officials is still in the early stages, and I am determined to do everything I can to treat the big officials." An Daoquan comforted Wu Zhidao.

Jin Lian on the side had two lines of tears hanging down, and also raised her head and said to Wu Zhi: "Official, don't think too much, smallpox is not impossible!" Do you remember that Zhang Mazi from our Yanggu County before? He just got smallpox, didn't he get better on his own? ”

“…… Official, no matter what you look like, the slave family and Xue'er Sanniang will always be with you! ”

There is indeed a Zhang Mazi in Yanggu County who has had smallpox before, but although he is good, his face is covered with fried pockmarks, and his appearance is extremely terrifying.

Wu Zhi shook his head weakly, took a deep look at Jin Lian, and subconsciously shrank back and kept a distance from Jin Lian.

"Doctor An, tell me directly, is there any chance that my disease will be cured?" Wu Zhi asked in a deep voice.

"This ......"

An Daoquan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wu Zhi so calm, but he was a sincere person and would not lie, so he had to say truthfully: "Smallpox is a terminal disease, and there are people among the people who have been cured by themselves from this disease, but ...... However, my family has practiced medicine for generations, and according to the medical records of the past dynasties, none of those who contracted smallpox could be cured, and all of them died. Those who have healed themselves are all God-blessed people who are unique in ten thousand. ”

"There is no one in ten thousand...... There is no one in 10,000...... Hehe! ”

Wu Zhi muttered a few words, he knew that those who were cured of smallpox were even fewer than those who got cancer in later generations, this probability was too low, it was a miracle, and it could not be counted on at all.

"How much time do I have left?" Wu Zhi gritted his teeth and asked.

"Slow is a year, fast is ...... Trimester! After An Daoquan finished speaking, he continued: "The smallpox of the big official is on the arm, and it will slowly fill the whole body in the future, and the pain is far beyond what people can bear. ”

Wu Zhi felt a burst of despair in his heart, closed his eyes and waved his hand at An Daoquan and said, "Doctor An, you go out first, I want to be quiet." ”

"Alas!"

With a light sigh, An Daoquan bowed slightly to Wu Zhi and Jin Lian, and then retreated.

………

"Official, official, you will definitely be fine!"

After An Daoquan left, Jin Lian pounced on Wu Zhi again, bursting into tears.

Wu Zhi looked down at Jin Lian, and was inexplicably moved in his heart, I don't know why Jin Lian was by his side, Wu Zhi's mood suddenly calmed down a lot.

"Jin Lian, you found out a few days ago, didn't you?" Wu Zhi asked.

"Hmm!" Jin Lian nodded with difficulty and said, "At present, only me and Dr. An know about the official's illness, and I didn't tell Xue'er Sanniang and them." ”

"Do it right......"

Wu Zhi smiled bitterly, wanting to raise his hand to wipe the tears from Jin Lian's face, but he shrank his hand tremblingly.

"Jin Lian, from now on, you stay away from me!" Wu Zhi moved back and said, "This disease is contagious, I don't want to hurt you!" ”

"Official, I don't care!"

Jin Lian immediately approached Wu Zhi, as if she was rebelling against Wu Zhi's estrangement.

"Could it be that you have been ...... these days?"

There was already a slight anger in Wu Zhi's eyes.

Jin Lian saw that Wu Zhi wanted to get angry, so she shrank back and whispered, "I haven't ...... yet."

Wu Zhichang breathed a sigh of relief and said sharply: "It's okay if you don't have it, do you still want me to infect you with this disease?" Seeing Jin Lian lowering her head and shedding tears, Wu Zhi said softly: "Jin Lian, I know that you started to hide from me because I was afraid that I would catch you, but this is smallpox, others can't avoid it, you stick to it!" Aren't you afraid? I know you're doing it for my good, but if I infect you, I won't be blind to death! ”

Jin Lian's affection made Wu Zhi's heart warm, but Jin Lian is affectionate, Wu Zhi can't be unrighteous, he can get smallpox alone, why bother Jin Lian.

"Official!"

Jin Lian suddenly raised her head, her eyes became firm and bright: "Jin Lian is not afraid of any smallpox, Jin Lian is only afraid of what the officials have three strengths and two shortcomings, if the officials have something, Jin Lian can't live alone" After speaking, Jin Lian's eyes drooped slightly, and her voice was calm and said like a family routine: "Official, do you remember that you told me before that you are a person whose soul has crossed over?" You told me to keep it a secret for you, but I still secretly told Xue'er and Sanniang, and they all laughed at me for being stupid when they learned about it, saying that you were joking and funny! ”

With a warm smile on her tearful face, Jin Lian continued: "But I believe it, because I know best about the changes in you. Therefore, I never treat you as the former Wu Dalang, you are my official, the official who gave me a second life, without you, I am afraid I would have died. Jin Lianmei's eyes were half-closed, and she smiled slightly shyly, "To tell you the truth, since the time when you took care of me personally in the proud building in Yanggu County, I have secretly made up my mind that I will serve you as a cow and a horse for the rest of my life, and guard you, I will go wherever you go...... Because, I can't live without you! ”

After speaking, Jin Lian's tears welled up like a spring.

Wu Zhi's eyes were also moist, and they all said that the adversity saw the truth, he Wu Zhi is now suffering from smallpox, and there are not many people left to live, and smallpox will be contagious, in case the news spreads, it is ugly, in the eyes of others, he will immediately be inferior to a beggar.

Just like the discrimination of people in later generations against people with AIDS.

And Jin Lian not only did not shy away from it at all, but also took the risk of infection to serve Wu Zhi, and confided in Wu Zhi, this sincerity is really not something that can be done by pretending.

"Fool!" Wu Zhi couldn't help but stroked Jin Lian's hair with his left hand and persuaded: "I know that you have a deep affection for me, but you don't have to accompany me to die, even if you put your life and death aside, but have you considered Yun'er?" At the mention of Yun'er, Wu Zhi thought of Cong'er Ping'er and Qiang'er again, and suddenly felt a sour feeling in his heart, "...... When he grows up, he will already be a child without a father, do you want him to have no mother? ”

"Alas......"

Wu Zhi sighed deeply, and Jin Lian's expression also darkened.

"Jin Lian, you obediently listen to me, don't come near me in the future, although I have smallpox, but I have hands and feet, and Dr. An can take care of myself." Wu Zhi continued to persuade.

"No, you see how weak you are now, how can you have no one to take care of you?" Jin Lian immediately shook her head and said, "Doctor An is a doctor after all, he can only be close to you for healing, where will he take care of you, someone must stay by your side, we can't force people, and I don't worry about letting the maid serve you, or let me stay by your side!" Even if he dies and can die with the officials, Jin Lian can live a good life in the underworld! ”

"As for Yun'er...... With Xue'er and Sanniang here, Yun'er won't be wronged! Jin Lian sighed and said, "I'm sorry for Yun'er, who is a mother......"

Seeing Jin Lian's insistence, Wu Zhi shook his head and stopped persuading her.

"Okay, you can stay with me, but listen to me, take precautions, wear a mask, and don't touch the affected area!"

Wu Zhi until smallpox is mainly transmitted by droplets and direct contact, so as long as he and Jin Lian are careful, they should be fine.

"After all, if you are infected with me, then how are you going to take care of me? So you have to be careful, in case your family official and I are healed, but you get smallpox again, how bad is that? Wu Zhi suppressed his emotions and laughed with Jin Lian.

Listening to Wu Zhi's optimistic words, Jin Lian seemed to see hope, and nodded vigorously like a little girl.

"Hmmm! I'll definitely pay attention! ”
