I became a fox girl and was captured by the True Dragon Saint

"You can take the supplies. My people will live and die with Shenzhou!"

"General Li is a man of high moral character who always puts the overall situation first. This is admirable." Yu Wenzhi immediately put on a kind smile.

The two hundred thousand protective suits finally fell into Yu Wenzhi's hands.

Li Laoer sighed, it was already late at night - the three days leading up to the outbreak of the epidemic had been spent on the first day in this confused, chaotic and noisy environment.

Only two days left.

*******

When a new virus emerges, it may take many scientists a year or even several years of research to produce an effective drug, which is impossible to accomplish in just a few days.

Therefore, among the several major plagues that have occurred in the history of the earth, not a single plague was resolved because of the timely development of specific medicines. The only measure people could take was prevention and control.

Isolate the patients, burn the bodies, and then wait quietly for the virus to disappear on its own when the weather gets hot.

In the war against viruses, living beings have always been forced to take the beating.

But some creatures are much better than civilized humans in fighting viruses.

Jiang Ke'er looked at the little guy who was tied to the experimental table and shivered.

Chiroptera - Bats.

Because of the legendary relationship between vampires and bats, many people think that bats are cold-blooded animals, but this is not the case.

Bats have extremely high metabolic capacity, their body temperature remains at around 38-40 degrees for a long time, and their immune system is basically at full capacity 24 hours a day, without causing any physical damage from over-immunity.

At the same time, long-term extremely high body temperatures will cause viruses and somatic cells to frequently make mistakes during the division process - thus causing mutations.

Therefore, bats have become the species with the highest virus content in the biological world. Their bodies are in a state of breeding poison all the time. Countless viruses are trying to break through the immune barrier, and from time to time they will mutate into a few super big brothers... But basically, they can do nothing about this horrible immune system.

For this reason, bats are of vital importance to the study of genetics and immunology. They are a treasure trove of species.

Jiang Keer wondered if she could find some inspiration from bats. Although this kind of immune research was more suitable for Sun Shichang to carry out... Jiang Keer felt that Sun Shichang and his team would not be able to come up with anything meaningful, after all, she was standing on the shoulders of giants.

However, nothing was gained.

With the help of identification skills, a microscope, and a precious talisman that can temporarily gain microscopic vision, Jiang Keer can clearly see the structure of the virus and what is happening in the microscopic world.

Normally, all viruses are afraid of heat, because viruses are composed of nucleic acids and proteins. Protein molecules are large molecules, and heat can destroy the covalent bonds between them. This is also one of the reasons why you have a fever when you are sick... But the epidemic virus in China is not afraid of heat and can even withstand temperatures of several hundred degrees.

Plan 1: Fight the virus by raising body temperature, failed.

Moreover, no matter how he compared the viruses, she couldn't find a component that only viruses have but cells don't.

Although viruses are mutating every moment, no matter how they mutate, they can only change slowly within a limited range. Even if you induce mutations artificially, you cannot make them mutate into the appearance you expect... Besides, your induction ability is extremely limited.

The situation was at a stalemate for a while. For a whole day, Jiang Keer felt that her research seemed to have made no progress at all.

Looking at Yiqin, who was barely hanging on to life with the help of life-sustaining equipment and was becoming increasingly weak, Jiang Keer's eyes would turn red every time she glanced at her.

She knew that as long as she found the right key point, everything would be solved. Millions of failures were just for that one success.

It would be enough to succeed once, but... there are only two days left.

If it takes more than two days, success in the end will be meaningless.

102. Jiangdu Mutiny

Different from Jiang Keer who was in a state of panic, the research and development work led by Sun Shichang was achieving great success!

Thanks to the massive amount of materials purchased by Taimingzong before the sect was closed.

Ever since Jiang Keer handed over the batch of emergency supplies to Sun Shichang, Sun Shichang no longer had any restrictions on supplies. With many helpers, his research progress was rapid.

After all, there is strength in numbers, and with clear division of labor among everyone, more than a dozen solutions were quickly finalized and work started in multiple directions.

The next day was a peaceful and reassuring day. It seemed that the ferocity of the demon clan had not been estimated. All the rebel forces temporarily stopped and the country of Dasi calmed down.

Moreover, there were continuous good news coming from Sun Shichang's research work, which made the people of Dasi, who were trapped in the haze, breathe a sigh of relief and begin to have hope for the future.

But Li Laoer felt that something was not right.

Logically speaking, it is already the second day of the anti-epidemic work, and medical practitioners from all over the country should have received the supplies supported by Taiming Sect by this time.

"The protective equipment has been completely delivered to medical personnel in various locations!" a messenger came to report.

"See, I told you not to worry," Yu Wenzhi said with a smile.

"No, I haven't received any news about the distribution of supplies," Li Lao Er frowned, "The news I just received is that medical commanders from all over the country are fighting the epidemic in a completely unprotected state."

"Maybe the news is delayed. General Li, don't worry." Yu Wenji comforted.

Is that true?

As long as he didn't receive any news from his own people, Li Laoer would feel uneasy. He decided to immediately contact Changsun Wuji and Changsun Qingyue who were far away on the front line.

One of these two people is his best brother, and the other is his fiancée. They are now on the front lines fighting against the rebels and the virus respectively. The news coming from there is the most authentic and reliable.

However, when holding up the communication, looking at the dim and signalless communication status, Li Laoer's heart gradually sank.

This is Jiangdu City, the second imperial capital of the Dasi Kingdom. The surrounding terrain is open and the climate is pleasant. There are no spiritual storms that interfere with communication signals, so there will be no problem of signal interruption.

But no matter how he called, the communication stone seemed to be broken and had no response. The same was true when he called the other demon generals fighting on the front lines.

He was suddenly in the dark and had no idea about the situation of the demons in the outside world.

What's worse is... all his capable men have been sent out, and now there are only a few ordinary demon guards with low cultivation levels left by his side.

Looking at the smiling Yu Wenzhi, Li Laoer understood that whether it was the demon clan, Shenzhou, or himself, it had all reached a critical moment of life and death.

It was obviously this guy's doing. The communication signals between the entire Jiangdu City and the outside world were blocked.

"I misjudged you after all," Li Laoer sighed, his eyes already beginning to look for an escape route.

His cultivation level is only at the Five Elements Realm, so even if he wanted to deal with Yu Wenzhi to maintain order, he would be unable to do so.

And the communication was cut off, which meant the live broadcast signal was also cut off.

In an opaque state, Yu Wenzhi could kill himself without any scruples.

"Why don't you just be a fool? Why do you have to ask this and that..." Yu Wenzhi pulled out his knife helplessly, but he didn't look at Li Laoer. Instead, he pointed it at the palace and shouted, "Go ahead."

The imperial guards, appearing from nowhere, surrounded the entire Jiangdu city in an instant.

It seems that there is nowhere to escape.

Li Laoer smiled bitterly. He had sent people everywhere to suppress the rebellion, but he didn't expect that the biggest rebel leader was right next to him and even reached a position like the backbone of Shenzhou.

What made Li Laoer feel even more desperate was that the imperial guards who surrounded Jiangdu City were all tightly guarded, with each person equipped with a set of the highest-end protective equipment.

It was obvious that all the supplies sent by Taimingzong were worn by these bastards.

As soon as these imperial guards appeared, they immediately began to eliminate dissidents and massacre the few remaining defensive forces in Jiangdu City.

For a time, the city of Jiangdu was littered with corpses.

Li Laoer also became their target. Although his guards tried their best to resist, they were quickly killed, leaving him alone.

"Tie him up, he's still useful."

Yu Wenzhi did not kill Li Laoer, but captured him alive, gagged him, tied his hands and feet, and hid him in a black box.

"Clean up the bodies."

The rebels skillfully gathered the bodies together, put them into storage bags, and then cleaned the ground. It was obvious that they were well-trained and prepared.

Jiangdu City quickly returned to its peaceful state, as if nothing had happened. Except for there being fewer people, it was almost the same as before.

********

When Emperor Jing woke up, he saw only an empty hall, with no court officials or guards around.

There was only a graceful figure lazily leaning on the dragon throne, looking down at him with a smile on her face, and that was where he should have been looking down at the court officials every day.

He hurriedly climbed up from the cold floor of the hall, and flew into a rage: "Where did this traitor come from? Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor!"

"No need to shout, they're all dead." Qiao Xiaoxian said lazily.

"Who are you?" Emperor Jing took a few steps back in horror.

Even though he was a Venerable with great power, he was poisoned at the moment and did not dare to use his spiritual power, otherwise the poison would take effect in seconds.

"You've been looking for me for a long time, but you don't know me. It's boring."

"Blue... Shadow?" Emperor Jing asked tentatively.

"Hmm," Qiao Xiaoxian snorted.

Emperor Jing stopped retreating.

He knew that when this legendary killer showed up here, it was too late.

As early as when she was unconscious, she had countless opportunities to kill herself, but she didn't do it. In other words, she is still confident that she can kill herself easily now.

"Thanks to you for messing up the whole world, including your palace walls and inner courtyard, I was able to easily replace your medicine with mine."

After Qiao Xiaoxian finished speaking, she patted the handle of the dragon chair and muttered, "It's too big. I have to change it to a smaller one... No, if it's smaller, I can't hold her. Forget it, let's just leave it like this."

Emperor Jing calmed down and said, "I will give you whatever you want. You are a killer and you are only after money. I can give you a hundred times the money paid by the people behind you! The last thing I lack is money. There is no one richer than me in the world!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you now. You've made her mad, so she'll have to take your head."

"Who?" Emperor Jing was confused.

Qiao Xiaoxian didn't explain, but just picked up the paper and pen on the table and threw them to Emperor Jing, saying: "If you want to live, I will read and you write."

********

An imperial edict flew from the palace to all parts of China.

"Emperor Jing was critically ill and passed the throne to his nephew, Prince of Qin Hao, and appointed Yu Wenhuaji as the Grand Chancellor."

103. Antidote

Sun Shichang had no idea what was happening outside.

He only remembered that when he entered the research tent in the morning, Emperor Jing was still the emperor of Dasiguo. When he came out in the middle of the night, the emperor had become a stranger named "Qin Wanghao".

Moreover, Li Laoer was missing, leaving only Yu Wenzhi, who had even changed into the prime minister's attire.

He could vaguely guess that some major changes had occurred in Jiangdu City, but no matter how he asked, Yu Wenzhi would not explain to him.

"Doctor Sun, just focus on developing the antidote. I will take care of everything outside." Yu Wenzhi said with that deceptive sunny smile again.

"There is only one day left," Sun Shichang sighed helplessly, "The antidote has entered the clinical trial stage. If there are no problems, we can quickly call on all the alchemists in Shenzhou to start refining it, and the problem can be solved quickly."

"I don't understand these. I'll just wait for good news from Doctor Sun!" Yu Wenzhi left the tent.

He sent heavy troops to surround the tent and said to his subordinates, "If there is any news about the antidote, inform me immediately. Also, these medical practitioners cannot be allowed to leave."

Sun Shichang pulled his thoughts away from his speculation about Jiangdu City, and rushed to the patients undergoing clinical drug trials as soon as possible.

The monks are extremely efficient in their work. Clinical drug trials have already begun, and it is probably time to produce the results.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, a total of seventeen prescriptions were tested, with fifty people in each group, all of whom were death row prisoners who had committed serious crimes.

A large number of medical practitioners stood by the bed, using various instruments and eye techniques to nervously record the changes in the patient's body.

"In the first group, the immune system started working normally."

This is an exciting start!

Sun Shichang looked at the patient's physical data excitedly - under the catalysis of Shenzhou's special medicine, the patient's immune system quickly resumed functioning and absorbed the ingredients provided by the medicine. The immune cells began to increase in large numbers and attacked the virus aggressively!

The various immune systems work together, body temperature rises, metabolism speeds up...

But it only lasted three seconds.

Three seconds later, the patient's entire immune system collapsed again, and the virus seemed to be stimulated, suddenly accelerating the patient's physical symptoms, and in the blink of an eye the patient was in a critical condition.

In the end, the rescue was ineffective and he died.

The first group of fifty people all had the same experience. Even with the maximum dose, they still ended up with the same outcome.

"The first group failed."

Sun Shichang was not discouraged, he hurried to the next group.
