Especially when they knew that the medical center had taken over the supply of herbs for the various military camps in the northern region. This was a very lucrative business.

As long as they knew how to operate it, any one of them would be a lucrative business!

Originally, these merchants, who had been in the herb business in the northern region, were thinking of finding an opportunity to get a share of the pie. Unexpectedly, before they could do anything, this entire pie was taken away.

Wasn’t this taking away all the profit?!

However, although they were indignant, no one dared to act rashly. After all, this medical center had suddenly appeared in the northern region. If they were not capable, they probably wouldn’t be able to obtain permission to supply the entire military’s herbs.

Because they didn’t know who the backer behind the medical center was, they could only take action against the medical center very carefully.

For example, this time.

After hearing that the medical center had received patients with strange conditions, someone sensed an opportunity and started to cause trouble for the medical center. This move actually wasn’t complicated. They just started the rumor that the patients being treated in the medical center had the plague.

As long as they led the way in fanning the flames, countless commoners would finish the rest for them.

Sometimes, this seemingly unorthodox method was actually the most effective. The fear of ignorance would make people lose their rationality and judgment and become monsters that only knew how to follow the bandwagon.

They would forget the favor they had once received and treat their benefactors with malice.

What Lin Suisui was facing now was a group of citizens who had been goaded by rumors and had lost their minds.

They surrounded the entire medical center and shouted angrily for the people in the medical center to drag out the patients infected with the plague and execute them. There were even people who wanted to kill everyone in the medical center.

When Doctor Luo realized that the situation wasn’t right, he instructed someone to close the doors and windows and stop receiving the symptoms. However, even so, he couldn’t stop the people outside who had already lost their minds. Some of them were bold enough to throw stones at the doors and windows of the medical center.

“We have to make them hand the people over and burn them to death today!”

“Yes, burn them to death! Even the people in this medical center deserve to die! If not for them, would the plague enter the city and threaten our lives?”

“They’re playing the good guys, but if the infection spreads, all the citizens of Cloud Mountain City will suffer!”

… .

Amidst the cries of the commoners outside, some people with ulterior motives had already taken the opportunity to encourage the commoners to smash the doors and walls.

Doctor Luo was extremely anxious when he heard the commotion outside. He was wondering if he should send the assistants who were still in the medical center away through the back door. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he was shocked to see that Lin Suisui had already brought Su Le and the others out from behind the screen that led to the backyard.

From her anxious expression, she must have just arrived.

“Madam, why are you here at this time? It’s very dangerous here now. You should go back and hide!” Doctor Luo couldn’t be bothered to exchange pleasantries and he said to Lin Suisui anxiously, “The commoners outside are crazy and won’t listen to any explanation at all.

If we delay any longer, they might really break in and injure you.”

“I know what the current situation is. Those people outside are not difficult to deal with. I’ve already gotten someone to inform the county governor, but you also know that we definitely can’t count on County Governor Tang’s speed for the time being.”

At the mention of the county governor’s residence, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but smile mockingly. However, she quickly regained her composure and looked at Su Le. “Su Le, arrange for someone to open the door.”

This trouble was caused by the county governor. Now that there was such a mistake, it was impossible for County Governor Tang to shirk responsibility!

“Open the door now?” Doctor Luo was shocked by Lin Sui’s decision and he quickly said, “Those people outside can’t be persuaded at all!”

“Doctor Luo, don’t worry. There’s something that can persuade them!” Su Le was very certain. After he raised his hand, a few well-trained guards went up to the second floor with crossbows in their hands. When the people reached the second floor, he raised his hand and two guards quickly pulled open the door.

When the commoners waiting outside saw the door open, they became even more restless and fought to squeeze their way in.

However, before they could take a few steps forward, they saw a row of arrows land less than five steps in front of them.

The approaching death threat forced the agitated people in the front row to calm down. In the blink of an eye, the guards who rushed out of the medical center had already created an empty space between the crowd and the entrance of the medical center.

At this moment, Doctor Luo accompanied Lin Suisui out of the medical center and stood on the steps under the plaque. Looking at the dense crowd of commoners below, she raised her voice and said, “I know what everyone is worried about and afraid of, but there are a few things I have to explain in advance to prevent everyone from making wrong judgments.

Firstly, the five patients inside don’t have the plague. They’re merchants from the empire who have been framed and poisoned by the northern barbarians. They were brought back by the patrol camp when they were patrolling outside Cloud Mountain City!

After the county governor’s people discovered that they were unconscious, they sent them to our medical center. They hoped that we could treat them so that they could learn about the situation when they woke up!

Secondly, even if these people are infected with the plague, aren’t you afraid that you guys will die faster if you guys come here to cause trouble and catch the plague?

Don’t forget, sometimes, there are plagues that you don’t need to come into contact with in order to get infected. You just need to stay for a period of time in the places where people have contracted the plague have been!

Doctor Luo closed the door of the medical center not to avoid responsibility, but for the sake of everyone’s health! It’s really disappointing that you guys don’t appreciate it!”
