The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 4 Do You Have Other Choices?
Lord Shi led the way.

Zhu Hongyu and Li Guangyuan followed behind, and the three walked towards another shack not far away.

The shack is not big, but it's not too small either, at least it can sleep a dozen people.

However, when the three of Zhu Hongyu lifted the curtain and entered the shack, they found that the shack was empty.

Only in the corner, a teenager lay curled up on the haystack, breathing weakly.

The young man looked at most sixteen or seventeen years old, a little younger than Zhu Hongyu.

His skin was also darkened by the sun, and his complexion was an abnormal gray due to illness.

The air in the shack was filthy, a sour smell mixed with the smell of sweat, stinky feet, and excrement.

The smell is much more pungent than that in Zhu Hongyu's shack.

Zhu Hongyu subconsciously frowned, covered his mouth and nose with his hands, and asked Master Shi beside him.

"Why is there only one person in the shack?"

Master Shi's thoughts were all on his son, and he replied with pity in his eyes.

"My son contracted dysentery, and the brothers were afraid of being overwhelmed by the disease, so they didn't go back to the shack for a few days."

Zhu Hongyu nodded.

Just by taking a look from a distance, he can be sure that Master Shi didn't lie to him.

Because this kind of sickness cannot be faked!
After listening to Master Shi's words, Li Guangyuan's complexion changed drastically, and he pulled Zhu Hongyu away and wanted to leave.

"Brother Yu, let's go, dysentery will be contagious."

Zhu Hongyu was dragged outside the shack by Li Guangyuan.

But the two did not leave, but stood outside the shack and said to Master Shi inside the shack.

"Come out and talk, I have something to ask you!"

Master Shi looked back at his son, then walked out of the shack, came to Zhu Hongyu, and asked.

"Little brother, if you have anything to do, just tell me."

"You mean what you say, spare me once, I, Shi Yongxin, will not be a villain who breaks his promise."

But to Master Shi's expectation, Zhu Hongyu shook his head, looked directly at Master Shi and asked.

"Want to save your son?"

When Shi Yongxin heard the words, his face was ugly, and he asked with some expectations.

"Little brother, can you save my son?"

His son suffered from dysentery, which is not a serious illness strictly speaking, but in Manila, dysentery is a terminal illness!

Because the doctors in Manila are all Western medicine, and the level of Western medicine in this era is still at the stage where whether the disease can be cured depends on whether God gives face or not.

It is better to just wait for death if you count on western medicine to cure your illness, at least you can die happily that way!

So in Manila, Shi Yongxin wanted to save his son, but there was almost no possibility.

Zhu Hongyu nodded and said.

"I have a way to save your son, but I can't save it in the mine."

Zhu Hongyu knew how to treat dysentery.

The method is very simple, that is allicin.

The preparation of allicin is not complicated, but it has a miraculous effect on dysentery. As long as he can leave the mine, it is not a problem to save Shi Yongxin's son!
When Shi Yongxin heard this, the expression on his face seemed to see hope, mixed with fear.

"But...but we can't leave the mine! Even at night, there are supervisors watching over it."

Zhu Hongyu stared straight at Shi Yongxin, and said.

"The supervisor won't let you save your son, so you won't save him?"

"Are you going to watch your son die without daring to stand up and resist for your son?"

"You are just a good one! Father! Dear! Ah!"

Zhu Hongyu spoke with sarcasm, deliberately accentuating the pronunciation of the word "good father".

Shi Yong clenched his fist forcefully, as if he had made up his mind, and said in a firm tone.

"Isn't it just to kill the supervisor?! If I can really save my son, I will give up my life and follow you, little brother!"

"My life is cheap, there is nothing I can't bear to give up except my son!"

Zhu Hongyu said with a chuckle.

"Believe me, your son still has a chance to survive, but if you don't believe me, your son can wait to die!"

"Besides trusting me, do you have any other choice?"

Then, with a firm tone, he pointed to his head and said.

"Of course, I don't need to lie to you, the way to save your son is in my mind!"

"As long as you leave the mine, I can save your son!"

"My surname is Zhu, the Zhu of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty!"

"My ancestors belonged to the clan of the King of Chu. This method was obtained by my father from the imperial doctor in the Palace of Chu when he was in Wuchang. It is a prescription for treating dysentery in the palace. It will definitely work."

Zhu Hongyu wanted to use his status as the clan of the Ming Dynasty to add a layer of aura to himself and increase the credibility of his words.

Seeing Zhu Hongyu saying this, Li Guangyuan also spoke to help.

"I saw Brother Yu's clan jade plaque and genealogy when I was a child!"

The two families have been neighbors for many years, and Li Guangyuan has seen the genealogy of the Ming clan and the clan jade plaque several times at Zhu Hongyu's home.
