Chapter 21 Inside the Isolation Ward

 The light rain started at four or five o'clock in the morning, and continued to rain all day long.

Zheng Qing was leaning on the hospital bed, looking at the misty scenery outside the window, listening to the sound of raindrops hitting the stone slabs, his eyes half-closed and half-opened, and his spirit was hazy.

This environment made his thinking a little slow - of course, this slowness may also be due to drugs.

He could hardly even remember what day of the week it was.

Because of the accident involving the wild monster last night, he and Lin Guo were packed into the school hospital by the professors before the patrol mission was completed. The school doctors on the night shift also felt threatened and opened a separate room for the two young wizards.

isolation room, and strictly followed those rigid dogma to confiscate all belongings of the two freshmen.

Including Zheng Qing's gray cloth bag, black donkey hooves, Lin Guo's small schoolbag, and all the clothes of the two of them.

It is said that these things will be sent to professional laboratories and undergo a series of safety treatments according to relevant desensitization rules.

The black goat did not enter the school hospital, but Thomas said that it would be quarantined for a period of time under the arrangements of the school staff to prevent any accidents.

Zheng Qing leaned softly on the cushion behind him, dumb and motionless, like a patient with late-stage Alzheimer's disease, with his mouth half-open, letting a trace of transparent saliva slowly droop from the corner of his mouth.

It's not that he's too lazy to move, it's that he can't move now.

In order to prevent him from being invaded by evil spirits, the doctor on duty last night gave him all the preventive medicines without any hesitation - as long as they did not conflict with the properties of the medicines.

So until now, his muscles are a little soft and he can't exert any strength.

An elf in a white coat flapped its wings and landed on the young public-funded student's shoulder. Then he raised the towel in his hand and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

This made the young public-funded student feel ashamed and angry.

Fortunately no one saw this scene.

He couldn't help but express his highest respect and sincerest greetings to the wizard who set up the isolation policy from the bottom of his heart.

"Click!"

The door lock of the isolation ward was unlocked.

Several wizards wearing loose white robes walked in.

The elves responsible for caring for the patients rushed to the hospital bed with a huff, lifted the young public-funded student, and straightened his body.

Zheng Qingqing rolled his eyes, trying to see clearly the figure in front of him.

"Don't bother!" A familiar voice sounded in his ear: "Your eyes now look like a chameleon cursed by a zombie..."

The speaker was Mrs. Bella, the head nurse of the school hospital.

In Zheng Qing's impression, this lady was always unsmiling and very stern. He didn't expect that she would also complain.

At the same time, he felt a piece of cold glass being pushed towards his mouth: "Drink it!"

The sweet liquid flowed down the rim of the glass and into Zheng Qing's mouth.

The elves raised their towels and kept wiping away the spilled liquid.

"Don't worry, you should be able to regain some mobility in a minute." Mrs. Bella's voice said, drifting to another corner of the ward.

Zheng Qing remembered that Lin Guo's hospital bed was at that location.

When Dr. Ma came to the hospital bed to review Zheng Qing, the young public-funded student could already support his upper body with two arms and do some simple activities.

This excited him so much that he couldn't help but twist around on the hospital bed.

"Be calm, you haven't been discharged from the hospital yet..." Mrs. Bella looked at the young public-funded student with a straight face and an unhappy look on her face: "If it weren't for your robe, I would not have suspected that you were from Starry Sky Academy.

New students come to the hospital every three days to lie down... I have never seen a Jiuyou student who doesn't care about his body so much!"

Zheng Qing laughed twice and leaned obediently on the hospital bed.

"Unexpected disasters are inevitable... Some people are just unlucky." Dr. Ma stared at his blistered eyes and said feebly, "Lying in the hospital was not his intention."

Zheng Qing smacked his lips, wondering whether he should agree with Dr. Ma's explanation.

But he soon lost his right to speak.

Doctor Ma took out a flat transparent stone from the medicine box and stuffed it into Zheng Qing's mouth.

"Bite... bite tight." He ordered, then turned away the measuring instrument next to him, and kept recording the data on it in his notebook.

While writing, he warned in a nagging voice:

"Recently, pay attention to a light diet... Eating too greasy food can easily cause the turbidity in the body to rise, and the demonic qi can easily develop and grow under the stimulation of the turbidity."

"Of course, because you didn't actually kill the wild monster, the attack by the monster energy is minimal... But this does not mean that you can eat unscrupulously. Whether you are sick or not, eating lightly is always beneficial.

"

"Also, be careful not to overuse your right eye... There is only some congestion in it now, which should disappear soon. If you don't pay attention, using your eye with fatigue may lead to some unpredictable complications."

Zheng Qing made a whining sound in his throat.

Doctor Ma nodded repeatedly to express his understanding: "Yes, yes... most people have the same idea as you... Since magic is omnipotent, why not use magic to eliminate the congestion in your eyes and dissolve the evil spirit in your body?

Woolen cloth?"

Zheng Qing nodded repeatedly.

Dr. Ma changed the noteboard in his arms to another arm, raised the brush with his left hand, and emphasized: "This is the difference between a real therapist and an ordinary wizard."

"We have never recommended using magic to treat lesions that involve more delicate parts of our body... The human body is a very delicate structure with little redundancy... and magic represents huge uncertainty."

"Any use of magic to treat human injuries is short-sighted and has no concept of a doctor."

"So I suggest you wait quietly for this congestion to dissipate."

Zheng Qing bit the transparent stone, his Adam's apple moved, and he swallowed deeply.

When all the review work was completed, Zheng Qing couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked a question that had been brewing all day.

"What are the side effects of hunting monsters? Why do we have to stay in the isolation ward?"

He always felt that other people were making a fuss out of a molehill.

Or, there was something else others didn't let him know.

"You don't know?" Dr. Ma looked a little surprised, but soon understood: "Oh, I almost forgot, you are a freshman... Very few freshmen will consider these issues... Simply put, wizards

When you hunt monsters, you will be attacked by monster aura, so you need to clean up the poison in your body regularly... If not dealt with, over time, these monster auras will cause the wizard to transform into a lich."

What a chilling answer.

Zheng Qing couldn't help but shudder when he thought of those scarlet eyes and those greedy auras.

"But... there are so many wizards who hunt monsters, and every time they kill the wild monster, they will be like this..." Zheng Qing stretched out his hand, illustrating his encounter with Lin Guo, with a look of helplessness on his face: "Will this happen again? Will it happen again?

It would be too much trouble.”

"Of course not." Dr. Ma sniffed and raised his eyelids slightly: "Those wild monsters killed at the school hunting party are all mature monsters, and the school has 'disinfected' them many times before releasing them into the hunting ground.

As for the monsters outside the school..."

Having said this, he paused and explained in a mocking tone: "Do you think that wizards who can hunt monsters outside are comparable to you, novices who have only been in school for less than half a year? The potions they make at hand are enough.

Purified the evil spirit of a dozen wild monsters."

Zheng Qing sighed deeply, and his shoulders slumped.

The doctor's words were a bit harsh, but the truth was very clear.

Ultimately, it's because I'm a rookie.

"Can you bring me two books?" Zheng Qing finally requested before the white robes left: "Lying in bed all day, I feel like I have become stupid..."

"This is bad, I was already stupid..." The little nurse next to her let out a string of laughter like silver bells.

Even Mrs. Bella couldn't help but curl up her lips.

Zheng Qing rolled his eyes pitifully.

"It's not necessary." Unexpectedly, Dr. Ma rejected Zheng Qing's request. He raised his wrist, looked at the time, and explained: "After six-thirty, your quarantine will be lifted... But after all

You cannot leave the hospital until the effect of the medicine wears off."

"Of course, after the isolation is lifted, we will accept visit requests from some patients' relatives and friends... Based on the applications received now..." the head nurse next to him said, flipping through the folder on hand, shaking his head: "You should do a good job

Be prepared to be watched."

"By the time those visitors leave, it should be time to turn off the lights in the ward." The little nurse beside her lost no time in complaining: "In other words, even if I give you two books, you won't have time to read..."

"Then when can we be discharged from the hospital?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but ask.

"Tomorrow morning." Dr. Ma said, with a malicious expression on his face, which made his long horse face look particularly hateful: "Don't worry, the hospital will not delay your first class on Monday...

…This is a responsible approach for every student.”
