Chapter 273 The Strange Disease of the Previous Life
Chapter 273 The Strange Disease of the Previous Life
Nanchun sat on the ground, feeling a sharp pain in his head as if being pricked by needles, and his chest was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.
In the previous life, it wasn't a contagious disease at all. Someone was deliberately harming him and his mother!
who can that be?
That thing would not take more than a day or two to turn him and his mother into a state of being neither human nor ghost.
The people who harmed them could make them unaware of anything unusual, and over time, use that thing to eat away at their lives bit by bit.
At that time, his grandfather had gone to look for the tomb and had not yet returned, so he and his mother were the only ones at home. Their home was on the edge of the village, quite a distance from the other houses. On weekdays, not many people visited. Only the housekeeper, Bai, would occasionally visit to bring them some grain, oil, meat, eggs, and other daily necessities.
Nanchun was very confused.
dong dong dong...
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" Nanchun hurriedly stuffed the yellow paper package into the safe.
"Second Young Madam, I'm here to bring you some hangover soup."
The voice of Butler Yan came from outside the door.
Nanchun closed the safe, straightened his clothes, walked over and opened the door.
Seeing that Nanchun looked unwell, Bai Yan hurriedly asked, "Second Young Madam, why do you look so bad? Would you like me to call a doctor to take a look at you?"
Nanchun took the hangover soup and said, "No, I haven't drunk alcohol in a long time. I drank a little too much today. I'll drink some hangover soup later and I should be fine after a good sleep."
"Well, then you should go to bed early." said Butler Yan.
After closing the door, Nanchun put the hangover soup on the table.
He really had no appetite.
He felt horrified at the thought that there was a pair of eyes hiding in the dark, watching the Nan family, and could kill him and his mother without anyone knowing.
He fell on the bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
In his previous life, when he and his mother fell ill, no one could tell that the cause of their illness was opium.
The doctors in the village and the county town could not find the cause of the disease, and they tried all kinds of medicine but could not cure it.
Bai Fugui also spread rumors everywhere, saying that he and his mother had contracted a strange contagious disease, and people in the village were afraid to approach them.
Later, the owner of the house invited a doctor from Yangcheng to treat them.
Every time the doctor in Yangcheng gave him and his mother an injection, they would feel much better, as if all their uncomfortable symptoms had disappeared in an instant.
At that time, he thought that the doctors in Yangcheng were highly skilled and knowledgeable, and that the Western medicine they used was effective immediately.
Now that I think about it, that Yangcheng doctor surnamed Ma never told me what illness he and his mother had. Butler Bai brought him here just to give them injections and didn't prescribe any other medicine.
His mother had once asked about the cause of his illness, and the housekeeper, Bai Da, had said that it was probably caused by eating diseased wild animals in the mountains. He told them not to worry, saying that the best doctors in Yangcheng had come and would definitely be able to cure them.
But the last injection was like drinking poison to quench thirst. When Dr. Ma came to give the injection, the disease got better, but when he didn't come, the disease got worse.
In the end, my whole body began to itch and fester, and I felt like I was living a life worse than death.
Now think about it, He'an is remote, people have never seen opium, and don't know what kind of diseases it can cause, so this is possible.
But even Xu Fei and Lan Xiaodie could tell that the disease was caused by opium, so how could Doctor Ma from Yangcheng not know?
Butler Bai actually said that it was... a disease caused by eating sick wild animals.
Later, the head of the family went to Yangcheng for an important matter, and Doctor Ma disappeared.
Not long after, A Niang passed away due to illness.
Nanchun dragged his sick body and stumbled into the village to ask for help.
But no one helped him.
When everyone saw him coming, they hid away from him as if he were a monster, fearing that they would be infected with a strange disease from him.
He could only hold on by himself and dig bit by bit behind the house for three days.
It also rained on the day A Niang was buried.
His tears have dried up.
The raindrops were like his tears, sliding down his cheeks continuously.
Afterwards, he was locked up in a dungeon by Bai Fugui because he was afraid that his disease would be transmitted to others.
They were whipped with salt water, their fingernails were plucked out one by one, they fainted from the pain, and then woken up by icy water...
That taste...
It’s really better to be dead.
Later, Bai Xun came and hugged him tightly.
Nanchun thought that no one in this world would be sad about his death anymore.
Unexpectedly, his mortal enemy Bai Xun's eyes were red for him.
Bai Xun is really good to him.
She took care of him day and night without any complaints, and was so gentle and considerate.
He told her, Nanchun is my destined one, I should take care of you and be good to you.
Bai Xun would do whatever he wanted.
Nanchun suddenly remembered that there was only one thing that Baixun did not agree with him.
He often fell ill, causing great unrest in the family.
When he was in unbearable pain, he mentioned Doctor Ma from Yangcheng to Bai Xun, but Bai Xun did not invite him to treat him.
Instead, he found a doctor named Chen, but the medicine he gave him could not quench his thirst.
"Don't you have a needle like Doctor Ma's? Just insert it... and the disease will be cured." Nanchun asked him crying.
Doctor Chen frowned and said, "You have to endure this illness."
But he couldn't bear it...
Until his death, he never saw Doctor Ma from Yangcheng again.
Since Bai Xun risked his life to save him and treated him well sincerely, he would definitely want him to live.
But he knew that Dr. Ma from Yangcheng, invited by the master of the family, could save him, so why didn't he invite him?
Nanchun felt that his heart was falling into an icy cave bit by bit.
He pulled the quilt up to cover his face.
The truth was right before his eyes, but he didn't dare to look.
He was afraid that after seeing it, his beautiful dream in this life would be over.
It was not until dawn that he fell into a drowsy sleep.
In the dream, his mother was in unbearable pain. He knew that feeling, as if thousands of insects were biting inside his body.
Doctor Ma looked to be in his fifties and always carried a black leather suitcase when he came.
When she saw him, Nanchun felt like she had seen her savior.
The scene flashed, and the person in Happy City who was surrounded by people, rolling on the ground and crying, turned into him.
He felt drowsy, his head was in a mess, and he couldn't remember anything.
The scene flashed, and he was in the courtyard again. The tables, chairs and benches in the room were all overturned, and the ground was covered with broken pieces of utensils.
His hand was cut and bleeding, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
Bai Xun pushed the door open and came in, hugging him and holding his wrist tightly.
"It's okay...it's okay..."
Nanchun looked at him, her eyes red as she asked, "Bai Xun, do you know everything? Do you know what disease I have? Do you know why I got sick?"
Bai Xun looked at him, and his gentle eyes suddenly turned cold.
His lips moved.
Nanchun didn't dare to listen any further.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his forehead covered with sweat.
A splitting headache.
