Li Qi smiled and nodded: "Well, you are now immune to smallpox."
Zong Mixing still found it a little unbelievable, but she felt that if Li Qi and the others said this, it must be true.
"But we still have to take the last step." Li Qi said.
Zong Mixing said: "The last step?"
"Well, you have to come into contact with smallpox patients. If you don't get the disease..."
Before Li Qi could finish speaking, Zong Mixing interrupted him and said, "I understand, then I'll go now."
Before Li Qi could react, Zong Mixing left the thatched house.
Li Qi wanted to catch up, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.
I haven't been vaccinated against cowpox yet, so it would be an injustice if I got infected.
Thinking about it, he came to the table nearby, picked up the knife, and thought: Grandma, if you don't want to vaccinate me with cowpox, then I will do it myself.
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and gently made a cut on his arm. Because the force was too light, the skin was not even cut.
I can't do it!
After trying again, Li Qi finally managed to make a cut. When blood gushed out, he screamed twice in a fuss and smeared the cowpox pus on it.
Then he quickly bandaged the wound with a cloth. After everything was done, he seemed to have collapsed and lay on the bed without wanting to move.
I really can’t understand how those who commit suicide by cutting their wrists can do it. How painful is it?
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Qi and Zong Mixing were extremely busy at the back of the West Dian Villa.
The people infected with smallpox were isolated in a place and had to take care of them every day. As for the things they used, everything they used was burned with fire.
This is mainly done to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
During this period, Tang Yun and Wei Xinshan visited Li Qi several times, but these two women had not been vaccinated against cowpox, so Li Qi had no contact with them.
In order to inoculate a large area of people in the villa with cowpox, Li Qi found a calf, infected the calf with cowpox, and then had the calf killed to obtain the cowpox vaccine in batches.
At first, no one knew what vaccinia was, but seeing that the village owner and Xiao Jijia had it, other servants also accepted it.
Soon the entire West Dian Villa was immune to cowpox.
"Brother Li..."
That night, Li Qi and Zong Mixing had returned to the village and were still in the bamboo forest, looking up at the stars together.
"What's wrong?" Li Qi glanced at her and asked.
"I heard you and Miss Tang say last time that you would be leaving soon?" Zong Mixing asked.
Li Qi glanced at her and said, "Well. It took me too long to come out this time, and things haven't been done yet."
"Are you going back to Kyoto to do something good?" Zong Mixing asked.
Li Qi nodded: "Well, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing... I just asked." Zong Mixing muttered.
This girl seems to be really interested in me. It's a pity that I'm just a legend. It's not okay for you to be too obsessed with me.
"Miss Zong..."
"Brother Li, just call me Mi Xing."
"Ahem... Mi Xing, I know you may feel uncomfortable saying some things, but I still have to tell you."
Zong Mixing stared at Li Qi: "Brother Li, just say whatever you want."
"Have you ever heard of such a saying? A man has his ambitions in all directions." Li Qi said, "Actually, I have a secret that I haven't told you. I am a patient."
"Brother Li, what disease do you have?"
"Amnesia." Li Qi said matter-of-factly, "I don't know since when, I can't remember the past things clearly. I don't remember my parents, and I don't remember if I have any brothers or sisters.
I don’t remember if I am already married... So over the years, I have been looking for my family, and I have always been alone."
Zong Mixing looked at Li Qi's lonely look and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. He thought: Brother Li has such a strange disease. He must have been very hard these years, right?
"I never dare to make a promise to anyone." Li Qi looked at Zong Mixing affectionately, "Mixing, do you know what I mean?"
Zong Mixing nodded: "I know. Is Brother Li afraid that he is already married?"
Li Qi nodded, thinking that this girl is indeed a smart person, and she will understand it as soon as she explains it.
"But I don't care."
When Zong Mixing said these words, Li Qi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Heaven, earth!
How could such a good thing happen?
Looking at the handsome and charming Zong Mixing in front of him, Li Qi really wanted to give him a passionate kiss at this moment.
"You really don't care?" Li Qi asked.
Zong Mi
Li Qi's heart of stone melted instantly under such a passionate confession.
Just when he was about to say, "It's great to have you," a voice rang out: "Master Li, the owner of the village has invited you."
…
An hour ago, the sect master and Xiao Jijia had a heart-to-heart talk in the study room.
The main topic of discussion was about Zong Mixing's marriage.
The master of the clan did not beat around the bush this time, but directly made it clear to Xiao Jijia that he wanted to marry his daughter to him.
"Uncle Zong Shi, I wonder if you have heard of this sentence?" Xiao Jijia said.
The sect leader looked puzzled: "What are you talking about?"
"Luo Hua deliberately flows like water and is ruthless. I'm afraid my wife and I are destined to have nothing to do with each other." Xiao Jijia said helplessly.
The master of the clan said: "My dear nephew, how do you say this?"
Xiao Jijia smiled and said: "Uncle Zong Shi, can't you see it? My daughter and Brother Li are a perfect match."
Zong Yinghao was certainly not a fool. It was precisely because he saw that Zong Mixing and Li Qi were a little close that he explained it to Xiao Jijia directly.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Jijia also noticed it, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Zong Yinghao really didn't like Li Qi. It wasn't because of his power, but because he loved his daughter very much.
From Xiao Jijia, Zong Yinghao learned that Li Qi was just a businessman. Although he was a righteous man, how could the dignified young lady of West Dian Villa marry a businessman?
Zong Yinghao is also a man of the world, so his daughter will naturally have to marry a man of the world.
Li Qi doesn't know martial arts and only knows how to do business. If he marries his daughter to him, I'm afraid there will be many people talking about it in the future, and they might even make fun of him.
"Zong Shibo, although Brother Li is not very skilled in martial arts, he is an upright gentleman. I can guarantee that if my daughter marries him, she will definitely be very happy." Xiao Jijia added fuel to the fire.
Zong Yinghao was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a while.
After Xiao Jijia left, he immediately asked someone to call Li Qi over. He wanted to see if Li Qi was worthy of his daughter.
