"What's going on with Mayor Ji Xiang?"
The three doctors were naturally anxious when they heard that many people in the village were sick.
Mayor Ji Xiang sighed.
"Just three days ago, for some unknown reason, a disease suddenly spread through the village. It started with vomiting and diarrhea, and later progressed to high fevers and comas. At first, it was only one household experiencing these symptoms, and we thought it was just food-related.
In our village, with vomiting and diarrhea, families usually just endure it at home, rest for a couple of days, and recover.
But by yesterday, suddenly, many households in the village started having these symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea, and high fevers. The father from that initial household was the first to fall ill, and now he's already gone."
Mayor Ji Xiang's words immediately put Bai Xiao and the others on alert.
The symptoms didn't sound very serious, but the more they listened, the more it seemed like an epidemic.
