The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 569 A Good Remedy, But New Trouble Arises
Thanks to Lang Jiuchuan's series of questionable actions, the drug trial has yielded results.

The living dead who have been poisoned for a long time are clearly more delirious than those who are poisoned in the early stages. They will attack and bite based on their bloodlust, but they will not draw blood from them. This is probably due to the medicinal ingredients in the decoction. As for those who are attacked and bitten, as long as the wound is treated immediately, the small wound is cut off with a knife, and then the wound is cleaned by cauterization, the corpse poison will not spread rapidly.

Even this result is a cause for celebration. As long as the disease prevention measures are effective, people will not feel despair.

Lang Jiuchuan turned around to check Xiaoyu's pulse. Her pulse had become stable. She then used her divine sense to examine the meridians in her body and found that the black corpse poison was no longer spreading. In particular, after she vomited several mouthfuls of dark blood, her blood was no longer as thick and foul-smelling as before.

Looking at Dazhu, who is the most severely affected by the corpse poison, he belongs to the first wave of critically ill patients. His internal organs have already begun to rot. Drinking the decoction can only slow down the deterioration and alleviate some of the pain and mania. It is impossible to eradicate the disease. Even if it is eradicated, it cannot cure the internal organs.

She is just a human being, not a god; it's impossible for her to repair even decaying organs.

Therefore, this corpse poison must be completely eliminated before it enters the lungs and internal organs and begins to corrode; otherwise, even with a good medicine to remove the poison, it will not be able to save the rotten internal organs.

Even the best doctor cannot snatch a person from the clutches of death!
Lang Jiuchuan first poured the bucket of medicine into the mouths of the living dead. Regardless of the severity of their symptoms, he could always snatch a few from the clutches of the King of Hell. Even those whose lungs had been poisoned could at least have their suffering alleviated.

After some thought, she drew a talisman to dispel miasma. This talisman was made with cinnabar mixed with powder from wood struck by lightning a hundred years ago. It was extremely yang and strong, and contained a spirit. It would dissolve upon entering water and could dispel miasma and yin, and protect the body with protective energy.

Lang Jiuchuan placed the talisman in the last remaining pot of medicinal liquid and used his true energy to catalyze it, instantly turning the dark brown liquid into a reddish-brown color.

She then looked at General Ma's garrison.

Here she comes again, seeking out sins once more!

Everyone tensed up, reflecting on whether they had committed any sins, whether killing a bully counted as a sin.

General Ma stepped forward and said, "Young Taoist priest, I am willing to be the medicine man."

"General... how can you take such a risk? Let me do it!" General Ma's personal guards exclaimed as they stepped forward.

“No need. When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. If I am destined to become one of them, it is only a matter of time.” General Ma stopped him and said to Lang Jiuchuan, “Anyway, after being bitten, I can still cut off the flesh and roast it. I am old, with both a son and a daughter, and my son has given me a grandson. I already have descendants, so it doesn’t matter what happens.”

Everyone felt uneasy after hearing this.

Lang Jiuchuan glanced at him. This general was very cold. He didn't have a face full of fierce flesh, but his appearance made people feel extremely vicious. But was he really like that? Maybe not!

Just like an honest person who is not honest, a person who looks evil is not necessarily evil.

This will bring righteousness.

Lang Jiuchuan handed over the medicine, which General Ma took and drank without thinking. Soon, he felt as if a fire had broken out all over his body, quickly traveling through his eight extraordinary meridians. The coldness dissipated, and sweat even appeared on his forehead.

So hot!

General Ma took off his armor, rolled up his left sleeve, and walked straight to the undead who had been separated and imprisoned. He tried to approach the lighter ones first, but no one dared to get close and instead all avoided him.

He then walked towards the camp where the poison had seeped into their lungs, and Lang Jiuchuan called out, "Wait."

She redrawn two more talismans to dispel the miasma, dissolved one in clear water, and sprayed it on him, saying, "Go."

General Ma walked up to Dazhu, but Dazhu retreated in terror. When General Ma's hand touched his, smoke began to rise from his body, and Dazhu's face contorted in pain.

Just like Lang Jiuchuan.

General Ma was overjoyed and turned to look at Lang Jiuchuan. Before Lang Jiuchuan could speak, he saw someone approaching in the distance using supernatural speed techniques. It was Daoist Zhishang, who had a man bound in his hand with a talisman on his forehead.

"Brother Quan." Xiaoyu recognized the man at a glance, and tears welled up in her eyes with excitement.

Lang Jiuchuan then said to General Ma, "Dazhu used the medicinal soup to suppress his ferocity. In addition, the medicinal soup you took and the talisman water you sprayed, along with the protective yang energy, prevented him from getting close. Would you dare to let this person who has never drunk medicinal soup try it?"

"What is there to be afraid of?" General Ma stood up calmly.

Master Zhishang looked somewhat disheveled and said, "Fellow Daoist Lang, I found him in Tongzhai. He had already bitten two people and lost all his senses. The other two have been brought back by that young Daoist."

Lang Jiuchuan stepped forward and tore off the talisman from Liu Quan's forehead. General Ma walked over and directly offered his left hand to Liu Quan's mouth.

Master Zhishang's pupils contracted. He was about to say something when he saw Liu Quan let out a low growl and retreat, looking at General Ma warily with a very uneasy and restless expression.

"This is it." Lang Jiuchuan smiled and said to Daoist Zhishang, "It's a newly acquired formula. Whether it can remove the corpse poison is still unknown, but if healthy people drink it, it can stop the living dead from biting those infected with the corpse poison. General Ma is the test subject, so you can see for yourself."

Master Zhishang was overjoyed: "Really?"

General Ma grabbed Liu Quan and leaned in. Liu Quan howled, but instead of biting him, he was forced to retreat by the smell of the talisman water emanating from General Ma's body.

Lang Jiuchuan brought out some fresh medicine and fed it to him.

In an instant, Liu Quan trembled violently, gagging his throat and spitting out mouthfuls of foul-smelling black blood, while a wisp of green smoke rose from his body and slowly dissipated.

As the lividity on his body faded and his once bloodshot eyes gradually returned to normal, everyone was overjoyed.

Liu Quan collapsed to the ground, his eyes regaining their clarity. He looked in Xiao Yu's direction, and tears streamed down his face.

Lang Jiuchuan checked his wrist and found that his pulse had calmed down considerably. Most importantly, he could regain his senses, which meant there was still hope.

“Medicine with talismans, that’s feasible.” Lang Jiuchuan looked at General Ma and said, “First, brew this medicine and have our people drink it. Then take the prescription and talismans to Yangchun Prefecture and have the government brew it and distribute it to the people. Those who have been poisoned by corpse poison can also drink it. Then, have them come to the medical shed to eradicate the corpse poison.”

Master Zhishang hurriedly asked what kind of talisman it was, and Lang Jiuchuan handed it over. He glanced at it and looked somewhat solemn.

"What's wrong?" Lang Jiuchuan asked quickly when he saw that his expression was off.

Master Zhishang said, "This corpse poison plague is spreading extremely widely. Even if there is a good remedy, the talismans may not be suitable. These talismans are complex and not everyone can draw them. I can try my best, but the other fellow Daoists will probably find it difficult to draw the talismans. Not to mention, epidemic prevention also requires the spraying of talisman water into mist, and the number of talismans needed is immeasurable!"

After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Besides, even if there are talismans, if they are encountered by those cowardly and selfish officials, they may hoard them or use them for personal gain, and the people may not benefit much."

Human nature is inherently selfish.

Some people always think of themselves first. Once they get a good remedy or a magic talisman, they think that a more concentrated medicine will be more effective and use it on their own family members first, or to make a profit from it. How can the common people benefit from that?

Lang Jiuchuan sneered: "Profiteering from the national crisis? Let's see who dares!"

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to all my darlings! May you and your loved ones be reunited under the full moon!
