I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 882 - 881: The Problem in the Dishes

The Blood Circle is a specific term, whenever mentioned, it surely brings to mind the Bad Water, as only Bad Water necessitates the Blood Circle!Look at the effect of the Bad Water, those extremely potent Bad Waters require a human life each time!

Clearly, there’s more than one Blood Circle like this, generally hidden very deep. Beisitian and others discovered some clues from Ningjin County, following those clues led them here.

They thought, maybe they could use this Blood Circle to find those people behind it!

The specifics of those people’s numbers and organizational size are still unknown, but judging from the missing population nationwide, the scale shouldn’t be small.

This is akin to a huge tumor shrouded in black gauze growing on the heart of the nation, if not removed, it will be fatal sooner or later!

The next morning around six o’clock, Shi Jianbin opened his eyes. This was his biological clock; regardless of how late he slept the previous day, he would wake at this time the next day, whether he had spirit upon waking was another matter.

Shi Jianbin looked at the blurred view before him, no longer completely pitch black, knowing that dawn had broken, sighed. Although he had begun to adapt to his current pair of eyes, how could his heart be content?

Not only had he tried talisman making for treatment himself, but even the Third Elder had made talismans for treatment; however, none had any effect. No wonder those people had watched and sneered while they were treating, knowing certainly that they couldn’t cure it!

The Shi Family was nevertheless a large family, not without experience with Bad Water, compared to other families, their experience in this area was relatively rich, but this time, they were utterly helpless!

This caused panic among the Shi Family; once you lose control over something, it means you’ve truly become fish meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others!

Currently, the Shi Family is just like this, with no clue about this Bad Water, only Old Zhang has some hints, but unable to find a rescue method.

This is just one type of Bad Water that damages eyesight, seeing those village women handle it casually, it’s obvious this is everyday stuff for them, which is terrifying.

The Shi Family has been here for almost a month, and this month felt like a human Purgatory, constantly wearing away at the Shi Family’s arrogance.

Shi Jianbin just stepped out of the house when he heard the sound of running and slight panting, he was stunned, is someone... exercising in the morning?

This village feels like it exists on the edge of hell, dark and cold. Hearing the sound of morning exercise at this time, a wave of life unexpectedly hits Shi Jianbin, making him freeze there.

It’s likely that only the neighbor would be exercising in the morning in this village?

Really, ignorance is fearless, that woman probably doesn’t know what this place really is, yet still has the mind to exercise?

Shi Jianbin couldn’t see, could only hear the sounds passing by the fence outside, footsteps were light and delicate, surely a woman, apart from the newly arrived neighbor, there was no one else.

Beisitian had already run three laps around the small village; this village is really small, it took less than forty minutes for three laps.

Of course, she wasn’t truly exercising; she didn’t have the habit of morning exercise at home, never mind stepping out to exercise. She was trying to familiarize herself with the terrain, conducting an investigation on this small village.

The structure of this small village is very simple; it should be said that it was simplified intentionally. Beisitian noticed that some houses around the village were demolished, presumably to simplify the overall structure.

Now the village’s structure resembles a ’field’ character, horizontal and vertical, standing in the middle of the village road provides a full view, nothing remains secret.

Of course, there are some small alleys, in the morning Beisitian thought these alleys might hold some mysteries, but as the day brightened she understood.

Each alley houses those people’s own members; mostly women, but though these women appear ordinary from the outside, their eyes are cold and sinister, looking at others with malice, causing disgust.

With these people present, the alleys become even less likely to hold mysteries. No wonder the Shi Family feels they have freedom to walk around but have no real freedom.

Close to noon, a woman came to Beisitian’s small courtyard; though she wore a smile, her eyes felt particularly unsettling, coldly looking at people without any genuine smile.

This made Beisitian think of a saying, "a skin smile no flesh smile", everything felt malicious.

However, at this point, Beisitian could see that the woman tried to reveal a warm smile but was unable to do so!

"Thank you, Auntie, sorry to trouble you," Beisitian said with a smile.

The woman chuckled twice and went out, to prepare lunch for Beisitian. Of course, this required payment, as they were still operating under the guise of a farmhouse.

In less than ten minutes, the woman reappeared in Beisitian’s small courtyard, holding a tray with two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, along with a bowl of rice. The meat dish was a small stir-fry, the vegetarian dish was hot and sour potato shreds.

This speed suggested it was prepared in advance!

Beisitian called the woman Aunt Zhou because she only mentioned her surname.

After delivering the meal, Aunt Zhou left with a chuckle, glancing at Beisitian before leaving.

Once the other party left, Beisitian didn’t immediately relax, lifting her hand to take the rice as if she were sprinkling some powder from the palm.

The powder fell onto the plate, the dishes immediately emitted faint smoke, looking as if freshly cooked.

Beisitian’s expression remained unchanged, her movements unaltered, as she brought the rice over, noticing the powder fell into the rice without producing smoke, she first took a bite of rice.

Beisitian knew that someone would surely watch her meals; the food likely contained Bad Water, but its function remained unknown.

This is the Blood Circle; her arrival as a ’normal person’ full of spirit would undoubtedly draw their attention, whether they would investigate her depended directly on their confidence.

Beisitian believed direct control over her was more likely; after all, even the Shi Family had faltered, if they suspected she might be a hidden Mystic Doctor, it mattered not, so long as she remained controlled here, she would serve as a blood bank.

Beisitian ate half a bowl of rice, extending her chopsticks to pick at the potato shreds, with a few falling onto the wooden table, then she sprinkled some powder on the meals.

About forty minutes later, she heard knocking on the door, Mrs. Zhou entered, first glancing at the two half-empty plates, and said, "I came to clear the dishes."

After stepping inside, Mrs. Zhou didn’t directly approach the table but scanned around the room, which consisted only of a single room, the dining table beside the low bed, nothing else to see.

The floor was clean, except for the remaining half plate of food, the rest should be consumed.

"The food is delicious," Beisitian responded with a smile.
