Chapter 291: Chapter 290: Pros and Cons_1

Seeing Su Pan’er in such a serious manner, Jun Ruochen had a gut feeling that what she was about to bring up was not going to be good news.

He glanced at the Hua County Official and Deputy County Magistrate Su, unable to resist leaning forward slightly.

The arrow was already on the string, and he couldn’t back down now.

"What is it? Speak up."

"So, even you take things so cautiously?" Su Pan’er suddenly chuckled.

Jun Ruochen, however, broke out into hearty laughter.

"Your attempts at provocation don’t work on me! If the matter concerns me personally, I have no problem obliging. But if it’s related to the Imperial Court, I really can’t afford to agree."

What a pity! The fish refused to take the bait.

"My Lord County Magistrate is indeed right. This matter involves lives and is not to be taken lightly."

The relaxed expression on Jun Ruochen’s face disappeared.

"Doctor Su still hasn’t mentioned what she’s requesting."

"It’s quite simple. It’s about epidemic disease control."

Su Pan’er calmly said, "I assume that someone must have already informed you, my lord, that I have developed a way to deal with the plague. But they surely failed to tell you that I can only marginally improve the condition of those already infected with smallpox, there is no thorough cure."

Oh!

A gasp echoed all around!

Even Jun Ruochen got so excited that he quickly stood up from his chair and took a few steps toward Su Pan’er.

"Are you saying that you have a way to alleviate the sufferings of the sick? Are these words true?"

Su Pan’er nodded and then shook her head.

"I can only alleviate the pain - the patients’ ability to recover still depends on their own immune response and physical endurance."

"Good! Good, very good! Haha..."

Jun Ruochen laughed heartily with excitement!

No wonder he was so excited.

This smallpox outbreak has been around for a while, and the recent rapid spread of the epidemic has added salt to the wound in the already tense Capital City. The higher-ups are eager to show results to someone, but the epidemic shows signs of worsening. How can the higher-ups not be infuriated?

He had never heard of any way to slow down this epidemic. How could he not be extremely excited?

As long as this news is released, not only the higher-ups, but even his own Jun family would benefit greatly from it.

With these thoughts in mind, the look in Jun Ruochen’s eyes towards Su Pan’er had much more calculating trails.

But she was not used to that kind of gaze.

She couldn’t help but see Jun Ruochen’s ethereal face in front of her eyes, always heading to the forefront of each mission...

"Doctor Su, although this is not a formal court, once I report this matter, I will inevitably need you to verify some things. When that happens... "

"My lord, feel free to verify."

Su Pan’er is not worried about this matter.

She is capable of alleviating the suffering of the sick.

"However, my lord, I haven’t finished talking!"

Su Pan’er smiled slightly, "What I just said is that for those who have already been infected, I can only alleviate their pain at best. But for those who have not been infected with the plague, I can find a way to prevent them from getting infected for life!"

"What?"

Practically everyone in the room jumped up and roared in unison. They looked at each other, then shouted in unison again!

"Is this for real?"

"Of course, if it weren’t, I, Su Pan’er, would not say such a thing!"

Su Pan’er said in a serious tone, firmly and confidently!

Jun Ruochen was silent!

Indeed, it is possible for those who have not been infected with smallpox to never catch it in their lifetime!

The shock of this matter was so great that he couldn’t imagine that it was true!

The Hua County Official also fell silent.

Even Su Sikong, who had always regarded Su Pan’er as a thorn in his eye and a thorn in his flesh, was silent!

His amazed eyes frequently turned towards Su Pan’er.

Surprise, suspicion, doubt, worry, anger... various expressions quickly flashed through his eyes, finally turning into a deep killing intent!

What a pity!

No matter how good a talent is, it’s useless if it cannot be used by me!

Better to thoroughly destroy her!

Lest she fall into the hands of others and becomes their wingman, and then turn around to deal with me!

His hands quietly clenched into fists, and he silently sat back in his chair, saying nothing.

Su Hai, who was next to him, took in his every expression.

A trace of deepness flashed across his old eyes. He turned his head to look at the scenery outside the door, and all his thoughts finally turned into a long sigh.

The Clan Leader and the Clan elder also looked astonished!

But after a moment of shock, their faces were filled with jubilation!

"Pan’er, are your words true? Can you really prevent us from ever catching this plague again?"

As Su Pan’er was about to speak, Su Lao Si, who was originally standing behind Su Hai, suddenly stepped forward and tugged at her.

"Foolish girl, this is a matter of life and death, you must think carefully before you speak! Even if you don’t know any medical skills, your father can support you..."

Regardless of any family’s interest or matters of the Court, Su Lao Si didn’t care!

What he cared about was his own Pan’er, how to extricate herself from this seemingly ordinary, but extremely dangerous political game!

"Father, rest assured! Pan’er knows what she is saying."

Surrounded by wolves, her pseudo-father could still stand up and consider for her from her perspective.

Su Pan’er felt as though her blood was boiling.

She decisively broke away from Su Lao Si’s grip, turned and looked at Jun Ruochen.

"County Magistrate, what I just said is true! However, as with everything, every benefit has a drawback. This method of using cowpox is no exception!"

"What exception? Don’t tell me it requires a life for a life?"

Jun Ruochen’s eyes narrowed.

A hundred years ago, a deadly disease was circulated in the martial arts world, which required a life for a life.

Save one life, kill another.

If Su Pan’er’s method of using cowpox was also like this, then he would really have to rethink Su Pan’er’s character!

"Of course not. My Lord, your thinking is quite jumpy."

Su Pan’er chuckled, "In fact, this cowpox method is based on using the lifelong immunity after the infection of smallpox. The virus from the sick cow that was infected with the disease is implanted into the human body. The goal is to achieve lifelong immunity to the disease."

"This... this works?"

Jun Ruochen frowned.

"Whether it works or not, let’s leave it to time to verify."

Su Pan’er turned back, bringing Ke’er forward, "My lord, you see, everyone in our family has received the cowpox. Now, whether anything will happen in the end. Actually, I have no idea either. Here, I need to talk about that request to the lord."

Jun Ruochen examined the scratches on Su Ke’s arm closely.

"What request?"

"In fact, this cowpox method may result in about one in five hundred thousand dying from the cowpox infection. Speaking of it, this one in five hundred thousand chance is small, but who can guarantee that they are not the lucky one who wins this lottery! So..."
