Chapter 891
Old Liu continued, "This file was provided three months ago. To this day, the cause of this illness remains unknown. It involves an international tour group visiting a foreign scenic spot. During their sea crossing, they encountered a storm. After struggling, they reached a deserted island, intending to wait for rescue. However, they discovered a small village there. The villagers all had red rashes on their faces, resembling measles, yet distinct from them. Measles is contagious, but this rash is not; it is hereditary. Children born there develop various red rashes after three months. The rash subsides after about a week, only to reappear the following week. This cycle of appearing and disappearing weekly continues. International doctors have been dispatched, and our nation has sent the renowned Divine Physician, Elder Yao. Now, we must discuss this case."
Hearing that Elder Yao had also gone to the island, Zhu Yanyi was slightly stunned. She asked Gu Jingtian, "When did Grandpa Yao leave? Do you know?"
Gu Jingtian whispered, "I spoke with Master on the phone yesterday. He said he would leave tomorrow and is preparing today. Rest assured, Elder Chun is accompanying him. Elder Yun and Elder Du also sent special personnel to go with them, so there will be no danger."
Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly, acknowledging the information. "Grandpa Yao just can't sit still."
Qu Zhong laughed from the side. "If Master could sit still, he wouldn't have become a Divine Physician. As a healer, one must go deep into the grassroots, contact more patients, and encounter more symptoms to gain more experience."
"Hmm." Zhu Yanyi agreed with this point. Her complaint stemmed mainly from her worry for Elder Yao.
"Little Junior Sister, Master is an old fox. You don't need to worry about him being in danger," Dong Bocao said with a grin.
"I think I should tell Grandpa Yao what you said, to see how he deals with you," Zhu Yanyi huffed.
The voices of the senior and junior disciples were very soft, so no one else heard their conversation.
"Mr. Gu, are you discussing this file?" Deng Qing, sitting nearby, noticed them whispering and asked curiously.
Gu Jingtian smiled slightly, his expression serious. "Since our nation's Elder Yao is involved, we naturally need to analyze this case carefully. Unfortunately, we cannot go personally, so we can only review the case and analyze it here."
Zhu Yanyi smiled, watching Gu Jingtian handle Deng Qing and others with ease. She opened the file and began to read slowly. The case description in the file matched what Old Liu had said. As she read, she asked, "Has anyone taken blood samples from these patients for testing?"
Old Liu nodded slightly. "Someone has already departed with the equipment, but the data has not arrived yet."
"If the data hasn't arrived, what are you asking us to look at?" Eugene said helplessly.
Old Jin smiled, not angry. He said, "We mainly want you to look for similar symptoms based on the description. As our nation says, many hands make light work. One hero needs three helpers. Perhaps discussing this difficult problem will yield results. So, we want to hear your discussions."
