I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

"Brother Zhang, what is this microscope you mentioned?"

"Well... you can think of it as a kind of spiritual artifact, one that allows you to see very tiny things," Zhang Menglong suddenly felt that it was somewhat difficult to communicate in this technologically deprived middle realm.

"There is such a magical spiritual artifact," Qi Xiu exclaimed, "The one Brother Zhang took out must be at least an Eighth Grade spiritual artifact, right?"

"It's okay, it's just what's used in university research labs, the precision isn't very high, but it's enough."

It's just a high-precision optical telescope, enough to look at life's structures and such.

Zhang Menglong donned a white coat, put on rubber gloves, made a sample with a glass slide, and started observing it under the microscope.

"The body length is about 0.05 microns, eukaryotic, with flagella and a cell membrane... isn't this just a bacterium?" Zhang Menglong quickly came to a conclusion with just a glance.

Generally, bacteria range from 5 to 50 microns in length and 0.5 to 5 microns in width, but since it's another world, biological entities having some more peculiar appearance scales isn't anything strange, it's just that the scale is smaller here.

Even if it's highly infectious and can even devour Mystic Qi, it sounds formidable, but essentially, it's just a prokaryote.

Probably this is a virus left over from a long time ago on the Haotian Continent, which because of climate changes was frozen in those extremely cold places, once unfrozen, someone maliciously collected it to make this kind of biological weapon, it's not as terrifying as they say.

"Teacher, I've found it!" A young man suddenly came running towards them with a book, he was a student of that Master Han.

"How is it? Any results?"

"Teacher, I found its specific information in the records," the young man said, "It's called the Qi-eating Nether Region bug, the last record was from over 300 years ago in the Qianlong Dynasty, when they were at war with another dynasty, their general was secretly infected with this bug, and within a month, that Mystic-Breaking Realm general died miserably in the camp."

"Qi-eating Nether Region?"

"I've heard of this too, they say there's no way to deal with this bug, everyone infected so far has died."

"Then isn't our Holy Lord doomed?"

"Holy Lord!"

A group of ministers and Qi Moxing's wives instantly burst into tears, to them, the Holy Lord was their mainstay, although the princes were all grown up, without his backbone, those princes would struggle to take on the heavy responsibilities.

"Stop crying, we should be thinking of a plan now, not crying here!"

"That's right, the surrounding dynasties have always been coveting us, if this news gets out, it will inevitably cause unrest."

"Forget external troubles, if our people find out about this, it might cause a riot."

"I think we should establish a Crown Prince first in this situation."

"That's right, if the Holy Lord really passes away, our dynasty cannot be without a new Holy Lord, I agree!"

"I propose that the First Prince take over as the Holy Lord, firstly he is the legitimate eldest son, historically it's always been the legitimate son who inherits the father's position, and the First Prince is already at the Half-Step Sky-Breaking Realm, plus he possesses the talent to govern the country, absolutely the best choice."

"I agree too!"

...

"How much did the First Prince pay you? I'll pay double!" Zhang Menglong said, "Can't you guys be a little more professional at being supporters? Acting like you're afraid others won't see through you."

Those who supported the First Prince blushed instantly, the First Prince who was just confident moments ago now turned sullen.

Where on earth did this wild kid come from?

"This is the Holy Temple of our dynasty, when was it your turn to speak, an outsider?"

"Seventh Brother, are your people too unruly, Father hasn't passed yet and you're already letting your people act wantonly here, what do you want?"

The other princes immediately pointed their guns at Qi Xiu.

"What passing, it's just some bug, it's not some incurable disease, you all are acting like your father is just about to die, truly farcically filial, who's really acting up here is unknown."

"Brother Zhang, do you mean you have a way to cure my father?"

"Brother Zhang, can you heal Father? Ruoruo begs you, you must save Father!" You Ruo was crying her eyes out, invoking great pity.

"It's just a fungal infection, wouldn't a strong antibiotic do the trick?"

Zhang Menglong had just roughly analyzed the composition of this bacteria, from Gou Dan's database, he found some microorganisms very similar to it.

This biological entity is very small, though it's just prokaryotic, its level of evolution is very high, it doesn't exist in low-level worlds, and even if it appeared in low-level worlds, neither science nor other means could handle it.

Because this bacteria grows in extremely harsh environments, it has a strong immunity to most toxins, in other words, it's akin to a super bacteria with strong drug resistance.

But in middle and higher-grade worlds, in those worlds where technology is the main axis, solutions have long existed, three-antibiotic, four-antibiotic therapies and such, you don't even need injections, as long as the person isn't dead, a bit of the corresponding special drug will do.

Of course, the specific treatment plan still depends on Qi Moxing's specific condition.

"That's great!" Qi Xiu and Ruoruo were instantly filled with tears of joy, to them, Zhang Menglong had become almost omnipotent, "Brother Zhang, please, you must save my father."

"No problem, but I need to first examine your father's body, so I can tailor the treatment."

...

"First Prince, there's news!"

Suddenly, someone who seemed like a henchman ran to the First Prince's side, whispering something into his ear.

At almost the same instant, Zhang Menglong felt a strong hostility and killing intent lock onto him.

Their eyes met in mid-air, seemingly sparking intense flames, evidently what happened on that desert area had somehow reached the First Prince's ears.

"Absolutely not!"

The First Prince, who had remained silent, finally spoke, "Who are you, an unidentified person, thinking you can see my father's dragon body whenever you please? Who are you?"

"Big Brother, he's my friend!" Qi Xiu spoke through gritted teeth, suppressing his rage to tear the First Prince apart on the spot.

"Friend? Who knows what kind of unsavory person you encountered elsewhere!"

The First Prince continued, "I just got word, today, the Demon Spawn from White Master's prophecy appeared!"

Crash!

The entire plaza erupted.

To many, White Master's prophecy was just nonsense, something that brought nothing but panic.

"Seventh Brother, would you introduce your Demon Spawn friend to us?"

"What? That young man is the Demon Spawn?"

"I knew it, he just took out such a strange magical treasure, claiming he could cure the Holy Lord, he must be planning to take this chance to harm the Holy Lord!"

"Overthrowing the Sacred Gold Dynasty... if he really goes in, White Master's prophecy might actually come true!"

People around immediately scattered from Zhang Menglong as if he were a plague, even a fully armed dynasty army was quickly approaching from all sides.

Zhang Menglong was helpless, "Oh dear, I'm just treating and saving a person, do you really need such a big entourage?"
