Chapter 813: 813

“He’s crazy!” Looking at the crazy young man who had broken his own meridians and died in front of him, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but sigh to himself, “This group of people is really insane. This Nirvana Organization is definitely a cult!”

He let out a sigh of relief.

Fang Qiu glanced at the corpse in front of him and suddenly felt worried.

It was because there was no way for him to ascertain whether a person was a member of the Nirvana Organization. This organization was too mysterious, and he couldn’t figure it out at all. Moreover, the most crucial thing was that it was extremely likely that the members of the Nirvana Organization wouldn’t personally kill people. Instead, they would apply other methods to kill them.

If that was the case, then it would be even more difficult to find members of the Nirvana Organization.

However, as for the slaughter of that village, those who had arsenic poisoning would not be so painful for the rest of their lives if the medical development of their country was rapid. It was possible that they wouldn’t suffer. Without pain, the people of the Nirvana Organization would not show up. Hence, those innocent people would not be killed by the people of that organization.

“Alas… At the end of the day, it’s because medicine is not powerful enough.” Fang Qiu sighed bitterly and murmured to himself, “It seems that I have to speed up the promotion of Chinese Medicine. The current development is really slow. I can’t wait any longer. I have to do everything I can to improve Chinese Medicine and include the treatment system of Chinese Medicine on the basis of modern medicine. Only in this way can I help more people, relieve more people of the pain of diseases, and let those innocent patients avoid being killed by the Nirvana Organization.”

It was the first real fight between Fang Qiu and Nirvana Organization since he heard about the Nirvana Organization.

He had indeed fought with the other members of the Nirvana Organization before.

But he merely encountered them by chance.

And this time, he specifically came here to fight with them, who was obviously here for him as well.

Both of their motives were quite clear.

Now that they were dead, Fang Qiu had also taken his revenge.

When he was about to leave, Fang Qiu suddenly raised his eyebrows.

“Something is off!” As if he had thought of something terrible, Fang Qiu muttered with a serious look, “If the people of Nirvana Organization can kill the villagers suffering from arsenic poisoning, then they can also kill the patients with other diseases!”

“I must tell Li Ji as soon as possible!” As Fang Qiu returned, he took out his phone and called Li Ji.

“Hello?” The phone was connected immediately as usual. Li Ji’s voice came from the other end.

“The murderer is dead.” Fang Qiu added, “I killed him. I’ll send you the location later.”

“Okay.” Li Ji nodded.

“There’s one more thing. It’s very important.”

Fang Qiu continued, “Since the members of the Nirvana Organization can kill the poisoned villagers, it means that they may also attack other patients. In that case, we can only rely on you.”

“Your speculation is very likely to happen. I’ll report it to the superior immediately.”

As soon as he finished, Li Ji hung up the phone and immediately reported this matter.

Shortly afterward, Li Ji called back.

Fang Qiu answered the phone.

Li Ji said, “The higher-ups attached great importance to this matter. They have already instructed people to follow it. If everything is doing fine, there should be further action.”

“Thank you.” Fang Qiu immediately expressed his gratitude.

“What are you thanking me for?” Li Ji was confused and said, “This is what we should do. We are the soldiers of the people. If anyone should say ‘Thank you’, it should be us.”

Fang Qiu then hung up the phone.

Although the army had obviously responded to this matter and declare that they would follow this, Fang Qiu was still concerned.

After all, there were numerous variables in this society.

He was rather concerned. If the higher-ups had given the order, the people instructed by them were not hurried or went to investigate at all.

Therefore, he hurried back to the cultivation base.

Fang Qiu immediately ran into the office and carefully searched online for villages with people suffering from diseases in the nearby provinces.

However, he did discover a village.

It was a village called Xiao Mount in Su Gan province.

The people living in this village were all patients with pneumoconiosis. Therefore, this village had a special name on the Internet—Pneumoconiosis Village.

According to the information on the Internet, Fang Qiu clearly found out that almost all the men in this village were miners, who were diagnosed with this disease after being recruited by some rich employers to dig gold mines.

Pneumoconiosis was a serious general disease that could cause death.

The patients who were suffering from this kind of disease were also in great pain.

After Fang Qiu found out the information about this village, an idea occurred to Fang Qiu.

Without any hesitation, he immediately booked tickets online, rushed to Su Gan province, and eventually arrived at Xiao Mount village.

When he arrived outside the village, Fang Qiu saw this quiet village in a distance.

It was not as lively as other villages. On the contrary, it looked a bit gloomy.

There were no children chasing and playing in the village.

What he could see was a group of middle-aged people in their forties sitting at the entrance of the village.

“Whew…” Fang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. At least the scene in front of him made him confirm that nothing had happened to this village yet. The members of the Nirvana Organization had not come to them yet.

But even so, Fang Qiu still felt a bit depressed.

This was because this village was simply too lifeless. It was as if everyone was shrouded in despair.

While Fang Qiu was walking around the village, what he saw was devastation.

In the eyes of the residents of this village, he could not see any hope of living.

Every time he passed by a house, he could spot that there was a person lying on the adobe bed in the room.

The people lying on the adobe beds were all men.

They were all men in their forties, who were supposed to be healthy and sturdy!

However, these people were all tormented badly by the illness, who were so thin that anyone who saw them would feel distressed. Their eyes were also deeply sunken, narrowing. It seemed that they had no strength to open their eyes.

It seemed that these men, who were supposed to be healthy and strong, were now more like old men in their sixties or seventies.

It was to the extent where many of them even had tubes inserted into their noses.

They looked miserable.

Fang Qiu didn’t even see a smile on the faces of the children in the village.

He paced from the entrance to the back of the village, and then once again returned to the entrance.

Suddenly, a few words came to his ears.

It was from several men in their forties in the village entrance.

Compared with those who were half lying on the adobe beds at home, they were in better spirits, but they still couldn’t conceal their sickness.

“Alas, there’s no hope.”

“Yeah, my children and wife at home are my hopes.”

“I’ve heard that Yang only had several days left, and now he has tubes inserted to his nose.”

“It won’t take long for us to be the same as him.”

“I usually feel extremely uncomfortable even when I choke. I don’t know if this tube will also make me feel terrible when it’s inserted into my nose.”

“Even if you feel pain, you have to endure it for your children and your wife.”

“Yeah.”

“We have to live as long as possible. At least we should hold on until the day when we can get compensation so that we will leave some money for our children and their mothers. If we die early, there will be no evidence. We leave so many debts for the family, and there will only be an orphan and a widow left in the family if we die. How can they repay the debt?”

“No matter how hard it is, we have to live. Otherwise… I would have died last year. I stuck it out just for that little compensation. I don’t know how long I can hold on.”

“I hope that nice man can help us get compensation today.”

The conversation between several men made Fang Qiu’s heart ache.

They were supposed to be in the prime of their lives.

But now, they were already talking about death.

Moreover, it seemed that they were not afraid of death at all. Perhaps they were accustomed to it. They knew that day would come eventually, but they were still living with fear. Even if they were afraid of living, they tried their best to stay for their wives and children, for the only family they left in this world.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Qiu suppressed his sadness and stepped forward.

“Sirs.” Walking to the front of them, Fang Qiu asked, “I just heard you talk about something. What’s the compensation you mentioned?”

One of them asked, “Young man, where are you from? What are you doing here in our village?”

Fang Qiu answered truthfully, “I’m from Jiangjing. I saw some news on the Internet, so I came to have a look.”

“You’re here to see if we’re sick or not, aren’t you?”

Another middle-aged man smiled and said, “We are indeed suffering from pneumoconiosis. All the men in the village have this disease. Don’t worry. This disease is not contagious.”

Fang Qiu replied, “If I was afraid, why would I come?”

“Alas.” Another middle-aged man sighed softly and said, “We got this disease for mining for someone.”

Fang Qiu asked, “Don’t you have any precautions?”

“There’s no training, no physical examination. Once the construction tools were given, we would get into the well to work!”

A middle-aged man shook his head and said, “The mine has been explored, but the mine owner didn’t admit the fact that we were sick because of the job. He said that we were just temporary workers, and there was no contract.”

Fang Qiu nodded with understanding and continued to ask, “Then, did you just say that someone went to ask for compensation for you?”

“Yeah.”

Several middle-aged men nodded in unison. One of them said, “In the past few days, a kind-hearted young man came and said that he wanted to help us get the compensation money. Today, he went, but I don’t know if he can get it back.”

“I see.” Fang Qiu nodded with understanding.

He was full of curiosity about the young man these people were talking about. He had to stay and see if this young man was a member of the Nirvana Organization.

“Can I help you take a look at your body?”

Having made up his mind, Fang Qiu asked them, “I’m a doctor.”

They were stunned and then chuckled at the same time.

“What’s there to check for? Our disease can’t be cured. We’re just going to die sooner or later.”

“With this disease, if I live one more day, I will suffer more. It will be better if I can die earlier!”

“Death is nothing more than losing my breath. Living is the most painful thing compared to death.”

Hearing their words, Fang Qiu quickly tried to persuade them. “There’s hope once you continue to live. There’s nothing certain in the world, including your illness. As long as you have hope, I believe everything will be fine.”

“So what if you believe?”

A middle-aged man shook his head and said, “You are not us. How can you understand our feelings?”

Fang Qiu nodded sincerely. “Because I’m a doctor.”

“All right, all right. You’re a doctor. I’ll let you take a look…”
