Chapter 516: Heat Stroke
Leaving Hengyang County, the marching party began to march in a north-west direction, and ten days later, entered the confines of Nanyang City.
During the march in the past few days, Dan Xuan kept a low profile while observing the vice captain Rui Gang's every move, but after a few days of observation, Dan Xuan found that this Rui Gang was really a scheming person, if he hadn't heard with his own ears that he had colluded with people outside, Dan Xuan really couldn't believe that such an honest, diligent and responsible deputy captain would betray the entire team!
This person is not simple, Dan Xuan withdrew his gaze from Rui Gang during the march, and a glimmer of light gradually appeared in his eyes, according to Rui Gang and the so-called Liang Lao, if the team moves forward according to the established route, then it is very likely that they will crash into the trap of the other party, once a fierce battle occurs, although Dan Xuan is confident that he can escape unscathed, but Dan Xuan is still a little unbearable to see so many people die!
After all, these people have no enmity with themselves, and if they can be easily avoided, it is a good thing to benefit others and themselves.
At this time, the sun was in full bloom, and Ding Lao saw that people were sleepy and tired, so he stopped the march of the team and arranged for everyone to rest in a sheltered place for an hour.
Dan Xuan pondered for a moment, and finally walked in the direction of Ding Lao.
Ding Mo took the water bag from his subordinates, poured a mouthful of cold water, and looked up just in time to see Dan Xuan approaching.
"What's the matter, young man, do you want to regret it when you're tired?" Ding Mo's eyes were full of contempt.
Dan Xuan shook his head, sat down beside Ding Mo, and said: "Mr. Ding misunderstood, what I said will definitely not change, I said that I don't want that silver ticket, when will it not change!" I came here to warn Ding Lao about something!"
"What's the matter?" Ding Mo was a little unsure of Dan Xuan, and his old eyes were full of vigilance.
Dan Xuan glanced at Rui Gang, the vice captain who was busy with the affairs of the team in the distance, and said, "Old man, I think you should take a good look at this vice captain, I always feel that he is a little strange!"
Ding Mo followed Dan Xuan's gaze and looked over, the diligent Rui Gang was working tirelessly to direct his subordinates to carry the grain under the scorching sun, the contempt on Ding Mo's old face became even stronger, and he said: "Young man, although I don't know what you are doing to provoke the relationship between Captain Rui and the old man, but the old man can tell you responsibly, Rui Gang is kind and honest in nature, and he has always worked hard and complained, you say he is strange, I think you are even stranger!"
"Me, strange?" Dan Xuan asked with a frown, feeling that this old guy was really very stubborn.
"Do you think that you are normal? You are a peasant kid and say that you are a poor scholar, which is very consistent with your image, but have you ever seen a poor scholar who is indifferent when he sees two thousand taels of silver tickets? Moreover, you are thin and weak, but you are as powerful as an ox, and you can even lift many boulders that cannot be lifted by one-star spiritual guards! Also, you know the gap between you and Miss Yin, but you are still here and do not leave, don't you think it is strange?"
"This ......" Dan Xuan was speechless for a while, he didn't know what to say, he actually found that he was indeed as Ding Mo said!
"What's wrong? Can't answer?" Ding Mo looked directly at Dan Xuan's eyes, as if he wanted to see Dan Xuan thoroughly. However, the result disappointed Ding Mo, the young man opposite him didn't have any waves at all, and his dark eyes were as calm as a deep pool.
Dan Xuan chuckled and shook his head, and replied in a deep voice: "Old man, I have already said everything I need to say, and that's all I have to say......"
Dan Xuan was about to get up and leave, however, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the distance, and several screams rang out, Dan Xuan's figure paused, and he looked in the direction of the sound, only to see that many onlookers were quickly gathered there, and it seemed that something was wrong!
Ding Mo quickly stepped forward, and Dan Xuan also followed.
Dan Xuan followed Ding Mo and squeezed into the crowd, and when he looked closely, he saw that more than a dozen people were shivering on the ground, their faces were flushed, and cold sweat was breaking out, looking like they were suffering from heat stroke!
"Hurry up and call Doctor Li!" Ding Mo instructed the people around him to find Doctor Li, who was accompanying him, while he hurriedly lowered himself to check on the situation of several people.
Soon, the old doctor Li arrived with the medicine box on his back, but after several checks, the old doctor finally gave a conclusion about heat stroke.
Dan Xuan frowned on the side, he was sure of one thing, these few were definitely not heat stroke, although the weather was hot, but Dan Xuan found that the people who fell ill were all more than a dozen people in the Yin family's guards, and they were basically cultivators above the four-star spiritual guard!
This can't be a coincidence, the only explanation is that those people have already begun to prepare to start! Thinking of this, Dan Xuan turned his eyes to Rui Gang, who was helping on the side, Rui Gang looked very nervous at this time, anxiously checking everyone's injuries, with a great expression of compassion for the world, but Dan Xuan knew that today's emergency situation was probably absolutely inseparable from this Rui Gang!
"Doctor Li, how are they doing?" asked Rui Gang worriedly.
Doctor Li replied in a deep voice: "It shouldn't be a big problem, it's just heat stroke, the weather is too hot, and when I apply needles to force out the heat poison in their bodies, there should be nothing wrong!"
Doctor Li said this, Rui Gang was obviously relieved when he heard this, and Ding Mo ordered everyone to support tall branches around them to provide shade to everyone!
However, Dan Xuan listened on the sidelines, but shook his head, if these people were really treated as heat stroke, I am afraid that these dozen or so names would really whine!
The sudden commotion not only alarmed Sang Zitao and Captain Xu, but even Yin Miaoke in the carriage heard the screams of these people.
In the carriage, Yin Miaoke lifted the curtain and looked at it for a long time, but she didn't see any reason, she only knew that something should have happened.
"Little boy, I think something happened outside, can you go and see what happened?" Yin Miaoke lowered the carriage curtain and said in a coquettish voice.
"Yes, Miss!" the boy hurriedly ran towards the crowd.
At this time, Captain Xu and Sang Zitao also rushed over, and they were also shocked to see the situation.
Dr. Li took out the silver needle and first dropped the needle on the four acupoints of the first person, "Renzhong", "Hegu", "Inner Court" and "Baihui", but after the four needles, according to common sense, the person's symptoms should have improved, but the actual situation was not the case! The patient's symptoms not only did not improve, but showed some signs of deterioration, and the trembling amplitude of the body was getting bigger and bigger!
