"Am I going to die? Am I going to die from this curse, young man?"

Ting announced to everyone that someone would check on them for their illnesses, and those people immediately surrounded Wu Jinhai before they cried in front of the red-robed man.
Of course, Wu Jinhai furrowed his brows in displeasure because the crowd was too noisy, and he even tried to pull away from those people's touches. Ting did tell him that the disease wouldn't spread as long as it wasn't exposed to the sun, but Wu Jinhai still looked uncomfortable being near them.
