Chapter 589: Jumping, Skipping, and Gnawing

That night, many villagers were talking about the physical examinations.

“Do we have an infectious diseases in our village?” a villager asked.

“Probably,” another villager said.

“Why do you think that the doctors are surrounding Chen Jiagui’s family?” another villager asked. “This afternoon, there was a free medical examination with no advance notice. Given that it was so sudden, are they trying to take the opportunity to check if we are infected?”

“Hey, what happened to Chen Jiagui? Did he go crazy? Is he dead?” another villager asked.

The most worried person in the village was Wang Yisheng. The mad sheep was from his home. Chen Jiagui was crazy because he ate the lamb. His madness and death had attracted many waves of doctors. Then, more doctors from the county hospital came again for medical examinations again. This was definitely not a coincidence.

“What if they find out that Chen Jiagui’s death was because of that crazy sheep and then found us. Would we be sentenced?” Wang Yisheng’s wife was worried.

“Sentenced? We didn’t know the sheep had been infected. That rogue should be blamed for picking it up,” Wang Yisheng said. “They don’t have not enough evidence to prove that Chen Jiagui’s disease is related to the sheep, do they?”

His wife still didn’t feel relieved. Because of the situation, she didn’t sleep well the whole night.

In the medicine fields on Nanshan Hill, Wang Yao also did not sleep. He stared at the increasingly manic little rabbit in the stone cage.

Within several hours, the rabbit had already become erratic. It ate the soil and stone cage. Its teeth were broken. The corners of its mouth were bloody. As if it didn’t feel the pain, it was still biting in madness. It especially liked jumping and knocking against the stone cage. It did not stop, even when its head was broken and bleeding.

“It’s crazy!” Wang Yao was shocked.

Woof!

“You think so, Sanxian, don’t you?” Wang Yao asked. “Let’s go!”

He carried the stone cage and laid it down in the middle of the Miasma grass, which exuded a unique aroma. “Look! Can the smell be effective?”

One person and one dog, one sitting and the other one squatting, watched the rabbit in the stone cage skipping, jumping, and gnawing.

“No!” Wang Yao looked carefully for a long time and found that the rabbit’s manic symptoms did not reduce. He continued to observe it.

Instead of sleeping, Wang Yao sat in the medicine field and quietly watched the crazy rabbit inside. It situation was getting more serious.

“It is insanity. The time from being infected to the attack is very short, and the initial symptoms are not particularly obvious.” Wang Yao observed while doing a summary.

Woof!

“It cannot be released now, or it will infect you,” Wang Yao said.

Woof! Woof!

“This is not a persecution of small animals. It is scientific research, and it needs dedication,” Wang Yao said.

He continued to sit in this way until dawn.

After returning home, the experts from the provincial capital immediately analyzed the samples, further confirming the judgment from Haiqu. This pathogen was indeed something they had never seen before. It was unknown. Therefore, it was more tricky.

“The situation here has been reported to the provincial department,” Director Liu said. “This pathogen is terrible, and we have never seen these microbes. Now, we have to determine its channel of infection and, at the same time, look for ways to treat it.”

These people were experts in biomedical science. Earlier in the year, they had encountered an infectious disease that was like a big storm. It had almost spread to the whole country. Since then, the domestic department paid special attention to similar situations. Prevention was key. It was important to eliminate incidents early.

In Lianshan County, the person who knew this news could not sleep in fear that this would be become a terrible disaster.

The next day, the sun rose as usual. The morning sunlight was very gentle. It sprinkled on the ground and shined into the forest. In the medicine fields, there was one person and one dog.

In the stone cage, the rabbit was lying there with many scars on its body. The ground around it was covered in blood. It was now completely devoid of the madness it had displayed the previous night. The all-night mania had squeezed all of its energy.

The stone cage was severely damaged from the onslaught of biting and jumping. One would have a hard time believing that a gentle and lovely animal like a rabbit could react so madly if one didn’t witness it. An anxious rabbit might bite a person, but biting stones and ramming walls was unheard of.

A crazy sheep, Chen Jiagui, and a crazy rabbit… They were three different species but had the same symptoms. They were insane and then manic. Wang Yao recorded these findings and considered whether they could be treated with ordinary drugs.

Seeing the little rabbit with the slightest breath in the cage, Wang Yao continued to observe its situation. The rabbit’s body had become skinny, and its fur was falling off. Its life passed very quickly.

“Enough to stop!” Wang Yao clenched his fist.

With a cracking sound, the rabbit’s head was crushed in the stone cage without anything touch it. Wang Yao opened the stone cage and removed the dead rabbit.

Woof!

“I know, San Xian, I will be careful,” Wang Yao said.

He entered the hut with the dead rabbit and found a scalpel. He then cut into the rabbit’s body. It gave off a pungent smell. The internal organs and tissue were black and purple. It was like almost dissolved jellyfish.

Wang Yao then cut open the rabbit’s head. It was like a lump of paste, partly because of his clench, but the abnormal black and purple were definitely not because of his actions. The rabbit’s brain was completely destroyed.

He re-examined it carefully before finally burning the dissected rabbit in the fire. Since it was a rabbit and not human, using four ways of diagnosis was limited but still more direct than other methods.

After the busy work, Wang Yao returned to the hut and recorded the anatomy findings. Suddenly, the big horn began broadcasting again.

“May I draw your attention, villagers. Today, the doctors at the county hospital will again come to provide free medical examinations. Those who have no medical examinations have to hurry up. Everyone must have a medical examination.”

Physical examination? The announcement distracted Wang Yao. He had not had a medical examination.

After he finished up on the mountain, he went down and walked to the clinic. Li Zucai, who had been bitten by Chen Jiagui, was waiting for him. The gauze at his neck was removed. The wound that had not yet completely healed looked a bit scaring.

“Xiao Yao,” Li Zucai said.

“What’s up?” Wang Yao asked.

“Is my illness OK?” Li Zucai asked.

Since he had been bitten by Chen Jiagui, he was somewhat worried. In recent days, many doctors had come to the village and been around Chen Jiagui’s house. Even fools could guess what was going on. He also heard that Chen Jiagui died in a horrible way.

He was worried that he would become like that. He lost his appetite and could sleep well. He always worried that he would become like that. He wanted Wang Yao to confirm the matter. He didn’t dare to go to the visiting doctors. He was they would take him out and isolate him for research.

“Do you feel uncomfortable?” Wang Yao asked as he observed him with the method of looking and smelling. He didn’t sense any problems.

“I can’t sleep or eat, and my stomach is hot. I also have a headache,” Li Zucai said.

“Oh, they are caused by nervousness and poor rest. Come on, let me give you a check.” Wang Yao reached out his hand to feel the man’s pulse.

There was no big problem. It was just due to mental stress.

“It’s nothing, really. Relax, go back and sleep well,” Wang Yao said.

“That is a relief. Sorry to bother you.” Although he said this, he still could not be completely relieved.

“By the way, I haven’t asked you about the fee since I came here last time! How much is it?” Li Zucai had been in such a hurry last time that he not brought any money. He felt that since they lived in the same village, Wang Yao would eventually catch him anyway.

Wang Yao was silent for a moment. To treat the illness, he used two kinds of licorice roots. Although, many people had drunk the medicine.

“$10,000,” Wang Yao said.

“What?” Li Zucai was stunned.
