Chapter 27 No effect?

Juniu Township.

Lujiazhuang.

Today, Lujiazhuang has been completely torn into two factions.

A faction of Taiping Dao led by Lu Qiannan.

The other faction is the secessionist faction headed by Lu Tianxing.

The latter has more people.

The main reason was that a few days ago, the Great Sage Master was taken away by people from the yamen, and everyone lost the talisman water that could cure diseases.

But soon, everyone heard that Lu Tianxing brought back medicine that could cure the plague from the government.

Therefore, a large number of patients around left Taipingdao and turned to Lu Tianxing, hoping to get good medicine to cure their illnesses.

Lu Tianxing also followed the example of the Taiping Dao, setting up a large pot in the rice field to boil water and make medicinal soup for the patient.

His goal was to get more ignorant people to leave the Taiping Dao.

In response to this, Lu Qiannan was too lazy to respond.

She led her followers in martial arts practice and chanting scriptures every day, waiting for the return of the great and virtuous teacher.

Early this morning.

A large number of patients gathered in the rice fields.

Lu Tianxing finally showed up.

As soon as Lu Tianxing appeared, a large number of patients gathered around him:

"Master Lu, do you have any medicine left today?"

Lu Tianxing smiled and reassured everyone:
"Don't worry, I still have some medicine!"

"My family doesn't need medicine, and all the medicine I get from the government will be used to treat everyone!"

“And it’s all free!”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but cheer.

Mr. Li even praised directly:

"Master Lu is still kind and righteous!"

"I heard that Mr. Xu Gui's medicine is not free, he sells it all."

“Even patients are asking for exorbitant prices just to get the medicine!”

Everyone nodded.

They all heard that Lu Tianxing and Xu Gui had obtained the medicine, so the two became the targets for seeking the medicine.

But Xu Gui is indeed a businessman, and his medicine can only be bought with money.

It would be fine if the price was low, but he went straight to the auction to maximize his profits.

During this epidemic, life-saving medicine is more valuable than gold.

For poor families, there is no chance to buy it at all.

That's why everyone turned to Lu Tianxing for help.

Lu Tianxing received everyone's praise and his face flushed.

Then he asked:

"By the way, how do you feel after drinking my medicinal soup these days?"

"Is the effect obvious? The disease has been cured by 70% to 80%?"

The last question caused everyone to be silent.

Everyone looked at each other, hesitant as if they didn't know where to start.

Lu Tianxing could only look at Mr. Li:

"Mr. Li, please tell us how you feel."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Just say it out loud."

Mr. Li's expression stiffened when he heard this.

He considered his words and said hesitantly:

"The effect... doesn't seem very obvious..."

"I guess I need to... take it for a while longer."

As he spoke, he was scratching the pustules on his body, obviously itching unbearably.

Lu Tianxing was slightly stunned when he heard this.

Mr. Li has been taking it for several days, but hasn't felt any obvious effect?

With Mr. Li taking the lead, everyone finally stopped worrying.

Immediately a young man said angrily:
“It’s not that the effect is not obvious, I just feel that there is no effect!”

"I wasn't very sick before I took the medicine, but after taking it for a few days, my condition has become worse and worse!"

Lu Tianxing frowned.

This young man's words were simply meant to embarrass himself.

He said in a deep voice:
"Everyone's physique is different, so the effects of the medicine will vary." "Just because you think it's ineffective doesn't mean it's ineffective for everyone."

The young man looked at everyone with confusion. Could it be really as Lu Tianxing said?
Everyone fell silent again.

But after a brief silence, everyone couldn't help but complain:
"I don't feel this medicine is effective either. I used to drink the talisman water from the Great Sage Master, and my condition was immediately under control after just one bowl. But now, I feel my condition has worsened."

"That's right! Master Lu, your medicine can indeed clear away heat and detoxify, but it has no effect on curing the disease we suffer from!"

"My family and I feel the same way. We feel worse every day, and there's no sign of relief."

……

Everyone was talking at once.

At first, Lu Tianxing listened carefully, hoping to hear examples of people being cured.

But when he heard the end, he found that everyone was complaining.

This made Lu Tianxing feel panicked.

He didn't dare to think of the worst, and only held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked:
"Then at least... no one has died during the days everyone's been using the medicine, right?"

It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but once he did, bursts of crying erupted among the crowd.

The others also lowered their heads and sighed.

There was no need to answer this question, Lu Tianxing already knew the result.

This made him sweat break out on his forehead.

impossible!

Everyone has been taking the medicine for so many days, it shouldn’t be ineffective!

Lu Tianxing remembered pacing back and forth, but he couldn't find the problem.

Mr. Li hesitated and said:

"Master Lu, it's not that we doubt you, it's just..."

"Perhaps you got the wrong medicine from the government office and failed to get the medicine that can cure your illness."

"How about... you go to the government office to confirm it?"

Lu Tianxing stopped.

Yes, it is possible.

And the possibility is very high!

Otherwise, how could we not cure everyone’s illness?
"Okay! I'll ride to the city and ask!"

Lu Tianxing no longer hesitated and prepared to leave immediately.

But this time.

But then a group of people came to the gate of Lujiazhuang.

This group of people looked aggressive and angry.

As soon as they saw Lu Tianxing, they pointed at him and cursed:

"Lu Tianxing! You bastard!"

"You were the one who deceived us in the beginning, saying that the government office would send medicine and tricked us into returning home."

"So we went home and waited and waited, and we've been waiting for days, but where is the medicine?"

This group of patients were obviously those who had left Taipingdao and returned home.

Today, they came to settle the score!
Lu Tianxing was also surprised when he heard this:
"You didn't receive any medicine?"

"It shouldn't be...how could this be?"

The crowd became increasingly angry, and some even tore down the notice that Lu Tianxing had posted on the billboard.

They threw the announcement in Lu Tianxing's face:

"Of course not! If you had received the medicine, would you come to you for an explanation?"

"We had the talisman water in Taiping Dao to stabilize our condition, and our health was getting better every day. But you tricked us into going back. You really ruined us!"

Lu Tianxing was also stunned.

Juniu Township also did not receive the medicine distributed by the government office, but Lu Tianxing thought that the government office was stingy and was unwilling to distribute more medicine after giving him a cart of medicine.

He counted the allocated amount on his own truck of medicine.

Lu Tianxing could understand it at first. After all, there was a shortage of medicinal materials during the epidemic, and the government would save as much as possible.

But now that he heard that there was no medicine in other places, he could no longer sit still.

"Everyone, rest assured. I will definitely go to the government office to ask for the truth and give everyone an explanation!"

"I'll leave right away. Please trust me again!"

Lu Tianxing apologized to everyone and quickly got on the horse.

Finally, he fled on his horse in a hurry.

All that was left was a group of patients cursing at his back.

Lu Qiannan and a group of steadfast Taiping Dao followers stood in the distance, just watching all this silently and coldly.
