Fortunately, Lanlan awoke in the afternoon; it was still her. Jiao Ling heaved a sigh of relief, then finally rested a while under Lanlan's persuasion.
With no more trouble from the Poisonous Insect master and the city's prevention and quarantine efforts being well executed, no new patients appeared in the following two days. Ding Ji even suspected someone was sick but dared not come out, leading to a thorough door-to-door inspection in the city.
Among the quarantined individuals, only three contracted the illness; the others remained safe for now. Bai Ruozhu led a team to treat the mild and severe cases separately, following the plague management method, and fortunately, there were no deaths yet.
Luckily, the Phoenix Poisonous Insect hadn't fully matured; otherwise, the entire city could have suffered, just like how Fen Gu had infected Ma Linglong and Ji Bao with its poisonous insect poison, which Bai Ruozhu couldn't cure.
