"Stand aside."
"Hmm... Master, be careful."
Gu Tao nodded and crouched in front of the corpse to inspect it carefully. He noticed the corpse had obvious rashes, subcutaneous bleeding, lymph node swelling, and other symptoms, with yellowish-brown pus oozing from its ears and clear gangrenous tissue in the lower body.
He frowned and stood up, tilting his head in thought for a moment.
"Master... what's wrong? What's happening?"
"Stay away from me and the corpse." Gu Tao raised his hand to stop Bi Qing from approaching: "Typhus."
Typhus, although not as frightening as the Black Death, was a highly contagious epidemic that killed millions in the past. Even after the "October Revolution" in modern times, it caused nearly three million deaths.
It ranks around fourth or fifth among epidemics.
