Chapter 92 Infection
In Xile Town, corpses were sent to the west of the town to be burned.

Chen Qiangli, the person in charge of the incineration department, watched the horrific corpses burning in the fire, and his mood had already turned from unbearable to numb at the beginning.

Since it was discovered that the plague only infected mortals, in order to minimize the number of infected people, almost all young medical practitioners rushed to the morgue to transport the corpses as soon as they came out of the pharmacy, day and night. When they were tired, they would squint their eyes, then get up and continue working.

Under such an outrageous schedule, even medical practitioners began to be unable to hold on.

Fortunately, at this time, three cultivators came here to seek medical treatment, which barely helped them relieve some pressure.

Thinking of this, Chen Qiangli looked at the three cultivators.

The youngest among them, the young girl and boy, looked quite sad. They did not dare to look directly at the corpse covered with corpses. Even their hands were shaking when they were carrying the corpse.

He could understand, after all, he was like this in the beginning. After he got used to seeing corpses, he became numb.

On the other hand, the woman who was barely average in appearance had an extremely calm expression. People said that she moved the body directly when the two children did not dare to touch it. She was not at all what a girl should be like.

Noticing his gaze, Tao Zi turned around and looked over. He walked over and said: "The number of corpses this morning is almost the same. You can go back to rest and eat first. You just need to wash and change clothes to prevent the plague from remaining on your clothes and shoes. Mortals bring trouble."

"Thank you."

Tao Zi thanked her politely, then looked at her junior brothers and sisters, and said, "You go back first, I'll stay here."

Xi Jing and the others nodded hurriedly, unable to even think about asking her why she stayed.

Chen Qiangli looked at their hurried away figures and said gently: "They are still just children. It is normal to not be able to bear this."

She remembered the scene when they first arrived at the morgue and couldn't stop retching, smiled, and didn't answer.

"Miss Tao, Senior Ting Liang said you are just okay, but you seem to be much calmer than them."

Tao Zi found an answer at random: "I am senior sister."

"Yes, in the sect, senior brothers and sisters always have to shoulder more responsibilities."

She looked at the forty-year-old medical practitioner, realized something was wrong, and said directly: "What do you want to say?"

Chen Qiangli raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Am I so obvious?"

"No one in this place has the energy to be verbose."

He fell silent, then smiled helplessly and said, "Yes, then I will tell the truth. Miss Tao, you seem to have experienced a lot of things. Do you have any ideas?"

"No, I am not a medical practitioner, let alone treat diseases."

Listening to her words without any hesitation, he said with a self-deprecating smile: "I was so sick that I rushed to the doctor. I'm really sorry."

He returned to his original position and looked at the corpses in trance.

Tao Zi turned around and wanted to walk towards the pharmacy, but three or four mortals rushed over from the street.

Chen Qiangli's face turned pale, and he immediately stood in front of the fire with his hands spread out, and shouted loudly: "Don't come over!"

After hearing this, she immediately stopped them.

After a while, two guards rushed over and completely controlled them.

It was clear that the situation was under control, but Chen Qiangli's expression was extremely ugly, even uglier than before.

He yelled almost angrily: "What are you doing? Do you know what you are doing!"

The leader was a woman in her 30s. Her face was bruised, as if she had been beaten.

Facing Chen Qiangli's anger, she was indifferent. Instead, she looked at a burning corpse and gave a weird and crazy smile: "First my mother-in-law, then my husband, now my child, and then Who? Instead of waiting to die, I might as well kill you together!" Tao Zi frowned, what does this mean?
Not long after, two young medical cultivators hurried over and took them back in silence.

The two guards continued to stay in place and looked at Chen Qiangli.

He whispered: "You guys should go to the pharmacy and have a look. Maybe everything will be fine."

The two of them nodded quietly, and one of them asked: "Where is the pharmacy?"

Tao Zi heard this and said, "I happen to have something to go over, so you can come with me."

The man cupped his fists and said thanks: "Thank you very much."

She led the two people towards the pharmacy. On the way, she suddenly heard the sound of someone sobbing.

Not to mention sobbing, even crying is common in a place like this. Surprisingly, this sound came from behind.

She stopped and turned around. The guard, who had not spoken before, had red eyes. Seeing her, he forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I just thought of my parents at home."

"Can I ask, what's going on?"

Although the two were a little surprised, they explained in detail.

It turns out that once mortals get close to someone infected with the plague, they will most likely be infected. In other words, they will probably become patients now.

The guard who was always very calm said: "Currently, there is no cured patient, and the outcome of the two of us is almost certain."

The tone was calm and no emotion could be heard, but Tao Zi felt despair from it, utter despair.

She asked: "What are those people going to do?"

"Go into the fire and die."

When he said this, he had been very calm: "They are all infected. What we have to do is to risk our own lives to prevent them from dying."

Tao Zi stopped talking and took them to the pharmacy.

Seeing their arrival, the people in the pharmacy were not surprised.

The good doctor Xiu was the old man, but he said: "Is there anyone else who can't think about it anymore?"

The calm guard nodded and said, "Well, thank you to this girl for stopping him in time and not hurting Doctor Chen."

He nodded and sighed again: "It's better to die than live. When will these people understand this?"

No one in the pharmacy answered the call, and everyone was focusing on the prescriptions in their hands. However, the medical boy standing at the door asked in confusion: "Master, isn't it good to live? Why do they want to die?"

The good doctor Xiu changed his indifferent attitude and said anxiously: "Hey! My little ancestor, didn't you tell me not to go out? Why don't you go back and rest!"

As he walked in, the two guards subconsciously took a few steps to the side, staying far away from him to avoid infecting him.

"Master, as you said, those who practice medicine should forget about life and death."

The good doctor Xiu blew his beard and glared: "I asked you to forget life and death, not to seek death! You don't know anything now, so stop getting involved in this matter and go back to take care of the immortal."

The medical boy touched his head and said, "The Immortal is awake, and now his junior brother and junior sister are on the side."

Tao Zi was attracted by these words and said, "My junior brother is awake?"

"Yes, Senior Sister Tao."
