Chapter 249: Chapter 249: The Insect in the Eye
Chen Yu hurriedly grabbed the little boy’s wrist, checked his physical condition, then reached out to flip the little boy’s eyelids.
“What’s your name? Where do you live? Does anyone in your family have the same symptoms as you?”
The little boy was immediately scared. He didn’t understand what Chen Yu wanted to do, and subconsciously took several steps back, even the apple he was holding rolled onto the ground.
Victoria nearby quickly stepped forward and grabbed the little boy’s shoulders.
“Dyson, don’t be afraid, this is the doctor sister has asked to come. You need to carefully answer any questions he asks you!”
Only then did Dyson breathe a sigh of relief, “My grandparents died suddenly yesterday for some reason, and my parents were paralyzed this morning. My brother went out to look for medicine and still hasn’t come back!”
Chen Yu inhaled sharply, “This is not good, it seems blood fluke disease has broken out in this place!”
Upon hearing this name, Victoria’s eyes widened as well. During the medieval period in Europe, more than one outbreak of blood fluke disease had occurred, each time claiming the lives of tens of thousands of people.
The disease was extremely terrifying; those infected would enter an irreversible state of physical decline, and even after death, their bodies were prone to triggering the Black Death.
“Mr. Chen, what can we do now? Should we inform the relevant authorities?”
Chen Yu shook his head, “It’s already too late to notify the relevant authorities under the current circumstances. Even if they send a large number of epidemic prevention personnel, they could also get infected with blood fluke disease!”
“Then what should we do!” Victoria suddenly felt overwhelmed, as this was, after all, her hometown.
Chen Yu calmed down a bit, “The disease in your family has already been cured. Take them to William’s family, then tell Victor to report this situation here, and ask him to find a way to contact the relevant authorities. I will stay behind, I am certain I can solve the blood fluke disease here!”
Victoria hesitated for a while, then gave a heavy nod and left with her family.
Although she didn’t want to leave Chen Yu to face the danger alone, this was the best solution for the moment.
Chen Yu didn’t say much more, quickly packed up his medicine box, and took the little boy towards the village center.
[Congratulations, Host has obtained one hundred points]
[Congratulations, Host has obtained one hundred and twenty points]
[Congratulations, Host has obtained ninety points]
…
Chen Yu had no mind to heed the system prompts echoing in his mind; he quickened his pace towards the center of the village and discovered that it had already become a hell on earth.
Western villages were inherently very spacious. Despite having individual village units on the vast plains, each household was quite far apart from the others.
However, in the village’s central area, several houses were situated closely together, but now these houses had seen varying degrees of casualties. Some of the people who were infected with the blood fluke disease and had not yet died sat on the roadside, looking like the walking dead.
These peoples’ eyes were bloodshot, their bodies covered in dense blood vessels, even their clothes torn to shreds, and wounds covered their bodies.
After briefly observing the state of mutation of these patients, Chen Yu took out some medicinal powder and had Dyson take it.
Although Dyson was infected with blood fluke disease, he was still in the early stages. And by observing the condition of these patients, he could roughly determine the growth state of the blood flukes in the body.
Therefore, the medicine that Chen Yu had hastily compounded could completely cure Dyson.
“Little guy, you already have antibodies in your system, so you won’t be afraid of these diseases anymore. I want you to be my assistant now, help me save your friends and family. Are you willing?”
Dyson didn’t say much, but nodded directly and then picked up the medicine box that Chen Yu had placed to the side.
