Mu Jian said, "Tell me the general symptoms of the patients once more."
The County Magistrate said, "From what I understand from the Imperial Physician, most of the people who fall ill exhibit symptoms such as fever initially, followed by dizziness, headaches, sore throat, muscle aches, and so on. Some even succumb within two days."
Shen Qinglan furrowed her brow. Aren't these symptoms of avian flu? Could it be that these people have contracted avian flu?
"Are you only looking for the disease source in the mountains?" Shen Qinglan suddenly interjected.
Everyone looked at her, and the County Magistrate said, "According to the villagers' descriptions, those few people only fell ill after returning from the mountain."
"Did they fall ill on the first day after returning from the mountain?"
"Not exactly," the County Magistrate said. "It's just that those who fell ill did so after they returned from the mountains, so that's why we suspect the disease source might be up there."
