The woman shook her head, "I didn't. I had smallpox when I was a child. I'm not afraid."

Li Changan stood in the distance and stared at the woman, "I know you are eager to save your son, but you clearly knew it was smallpox and didn't tell us."

"If my master had never had smallpox, he might have been infected. Even though he was a doctor, he might have died."

The woman cowered. If she told him, not only would she not be able to see the doctor, but she might even be taken to the wild and burned to death.

"Doctor, please save my son." The woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Doctor Liu sighed, "Chang'an, go tell the Taoist priests at Qingyun Temple that I want to go out."

"Master!" Li Changan was shocked, "Where are you going?"

Doctor Liu turned to look at Li Changan, "I'm going to Wangjia Village, and you can prepare these herbs for me outside... and report it to the government so that the infection can't continue."

In this way, the people sent would select those who had been exposed to smallpox to avoid infection and guard the intersection leading in and out of Wangjiacun.

Looking at the master's firm back, Li Changan felt a sore nose.

During the time I spent with the master, although the master had a bad temper, he had a benevolent heart as a healer.

"Master, I'll buy the medicinal materials and go find you." Li Changan wiped his tears and quickly took people back to Beijing.

When Li Xiaoyue learned that a village outside the city was infected with smallpox, she immediately took out 1 taels of silver.

"Chang'an, hurry up and accompany your master and help him. I bought the medicine and rushed over immediately."

When Old Man Li heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Xiaoyue, Chang'an is so young. Although his body has recovered, his life is not guaranteed if he contracts smallpox!"

"Even if you treat illnesses and save people, you cannot ignore your own life. You are not allowed to go."

Li Xiaoyue shook her head, "Dad, you and I have both had smallpox. Chang'an has also had it, and our whole family has had it."

"What?" Old Man Li scratched his head, "If you get smallpox, you have a narrow escape. You had it once when you were a child, but it scared me. I guarded you for five days before I pulled you away from the Lord of Hell."

"Chang'an was not in good health to begin with. If there had been smallpox, he would have died long ago. How could he still be alive?"

Li Changan thought for a while, his eyes lit up, "Grandpa, three years ago, I did have abscesses on my body, similar to the abscesses on the teats of my cows."

"I had a cough and a fever at the time. Not only did I have it, but Changhuan and Changle also had it. Because it wasn't serious, I didn't take any medicine."

Li Xiaoyue nodded, "Yes, that's smallpox in cattle. Just like people, if you get it once, you won't get it again."

Old Man Li was surprised and couldn't believe it. "You're not a doctor, so what you say doesn't count. Anyway, don't go to Chang'an. I've been infected with smallpox, so I'll go."

"Chang'an, you and your second uncle stay outside to buy medicinal materials. By the way, send someone to Mrs. Gongsun's place and tell her to be careful, close the door and don't come out."

Li Changan really wanted to go, but his grandfather was adamant and wouldn't let him go.

Old Man Li and Li Xiaoyue took the first batch of medicinal materials prepared and went straight to Wangjia Village, which was infected with smallpox.

The emperor's summons had long been forgotten.

They just want to help Divine Doctor Liu and not exhaust Divine Doctor Liu to death.

Li Changan sent some medicinal materials and told Mrs. Gongsun not to travel casually as smallpox might appear in the capital.

Mrs. Gongsun was startled, "Don't worry about me, I had smallpox when I was a child. I will also control it at home. Where is your mother?"

Li Changan replied: "My mother asked me to send Chang Huan here. She and her grandfather went to Wangjia Village with my master."

"They had smallpox and helped my master in case there was not enough manpower there."

Mrs. Gongsun sighed with emotion, "What a good person! Chang Huan is here with me, don't worry. Chang An, you should also be careful."

"Thank you, old lady, for reminding me." Li Changan left, leaving Li Changhuan behind.

Afterwards, Li Changan went to inform Qin Yuyao.

Qin Yuyao packed her things without saying a word, "Chang'an, I've also had smallpox, so I'm going to help."

In the past, even if she had suffered from smallpox, she would have wisely protected herself and would not have risked herself.But after staying in Zhenxiguan for a period of time, she understood that women can be like men, and they can and cannot do anything.

The old censor of Qin did not stop him, but encouraged his granddaughter and told her to take care of herself.

His granddaughter is no longer a flower that needs his protection, she has become a woman who is independent and has a strong character.

The old censor of Qin also submitted a report to thoroughly investigate the source of smallpox.

Li Changan was in Qingyunguan, responsible for the transfer of medicinal materials and external contacts.

Doctor Liu followed the woman back to Wangjiacun, quickly surrounded the woman's house and treated the child.

Doctor Liu examined the villagers and found six patients with different symptoms.

The village head is one of them.

"The ancestral hall is a big place. You can put straw mats on it and light a brazier. You can stay warm there and have the blessings of your ancestors."

Village Chief Wang immediately agreed, "Our ancestors protect our people and know that we want to treat the disease and avoid infecting other people, so we won't mind."

In this way, all those with symptoms were transported to the ancestral hall.

Lying on the thick straw mat, Doctor Liu made soup and medicine in time.

Seeing Li Xiaoyue and Old Man Li, Doctor Liu was startled, "Why are you here?"

Li Xiaoyue wore a homemade mask, "Dad and I have both had smallpox, and I'm worried that you can't handle it alone."

Doctor Liu gave a thumbs up, "Thank you."

Li Xiaoyue explained, "You're welcome, you are Chang'an's master. You can't do it alone. Although the court will send people, the people sent first are to prevent the villagers from going out, not the doctors."

Li Changan prepared enough medicinal materials and came to Wangjiacun.

"Bastard, didn't I let you come over?" Old Man Li took medicine for a day and looked disgraced.

Li Changan covered his face, leaving only his beautiful narrow eyes, "Grandpa, I want to try if I have been infected with cowpox. Is it true that I can't be infected with smallpox?"

"You..." Old Man Li was angry, "There's no rush, then! Wait until the smallpox is over and try slowly."

Doctor Liu was shocked when he learned the reason for Li Changan's return. He wished he could go find a cow and try it now.

"Heifeng, don't worry, I'm here, I can save Chang'an's life."

"Humph!" Old Man Li couldn't help but feel annoyed, "I don't know whether it's right or wrong to let Chang'an study medicine."

Doctor Liu smiled and said, "If you contract cowpox, you won't be infected with smallpox. This is a great achievement."

"The symptoms of cowpox are mild, and if a person is infected, there will be no serious problems. Maybe this way we can find a solution to smallpox."

Old Man Li heard what Doctor Liu said, and Li Changan was also here, so it was useless no matter how much he said.

Li Xiaoyue thought of the vaccination in her previous life, "Miracle Doctor Liu, if cowpox is useful for people and can prevent smallpox, then if cowpox is inoculated on people, smallpox, which is not a serious disease like cowpox, might be able to prevent smallpox, which can be fatal."

Doctor Liu's eyes lit up, "Yes, how to transfer cowpox to humans needs to be carefully considered."

Old Man Li not only helped make medicine, but also asked the villagers who was the first to suffer from smallpox?
It was found that he was a man who worked at a horse farm and was the first to discover smallpox.

The racecourse where they work is run by people from Qi State.

Old man Li did not dare to be careless and reported it immediately.

Let's talk about Hai entering the palace on Thursday and preparing to report to His Majesty the next day.

But before he could see His Majesty, word came from outside the palace that Old Man Li and Li Xiaoyue had gone with Doctor Liu to the village where smallpox was present.

What should he tell His Majesty? (End of chapter)
