Such situations were common nowadays. Wang Yao had been to several other villages in the county, especially one or two relatively remote places. The "empty nest" phenomenon was more serious there. More than half of the villages were uninhabited. In comparison, Wang Yao's hometown was relatively better.
"Maybe in 10 or 20 years, people living in big cities will find a way to live in the countryside again," Wang Yao said with a smile.
Compared to the city, the countryside also had its own advantages.
The most important thing was that the living environment was good. The air was fresh and there was no pollution. Most of the food was home-grown and healthy.
In fact, many people from big cities had already chosen to buy houses in small cities with less pollution, which were suitable for living. For example, in Haiqu City, many people from the capital had bought houses here. Every summer, they would come to Haiqu City to escape the summer heat.
This was a change caused by the changing times.
However, it was not necessarily a bad thing to have fewer people. At least, that was what Wang Yao thought.
"Dad, have you been smoking less recently?"
After dinner, when Wang Yao gave his parents a massage, he heard that his father was a little short of breath. He checked his father. There was no big problem, but he had to reduce his smoking. He did not want his father to quit smoking. He was clear about his father's hobby. He could drink less. As for cigarettes, he could not not smoke.
"Well, OK," Wang Fenghua said.
He had been a little addicted to smoking recently.
The mountain village was very quiet at night.
Wang Yao walked alone on the cement road and then went into the distant mountains.
Not long after, a light lit up on Nanshan Hill.
The night gradually deepened.
Baa! In the middle of the night, a sheep was softly calling.
This was actually a very unusual thing. If you had a sheep at home, you would find that this animal was actually very timid, especially at night. It almost did not make any sound. It was also the easiest livestock to steal.
However, at night, it called, and it was very loud.
"What's wrong?" In the house, the wife poked her husband, who was still sleeping.
"What?"
"The sheep is calling outside. Go out and have a look," the woman said.
"Calling? Why didn't I hear it?" The man rubbed his eyes and listened carefully. He did not hear any sound.
The two of them listened carefully. There was indeed no sound outside.
"Did you hear wrongly? Are you dreaming?"
"I really heard it just now. Go out and take a look."
"Okay, okay, I'll go out and take a look." Unable to dissuade his wife, the man put on a coat and went outside with a flashlight. He shone the flashlight on the sheep pen and found that the sheep were still there. There was nothing unusual. Then, he went around the yard again. After confirming that there was no problem, he went into the house.
"Are you alright?"
"It's nothing. You must have heard wrong. Hurry up and go to sleep."
"En!" The woman looked outside again. She had clearly heard it. It was really strange.
The next morning.
A sheep died in the sheepfold.
The hostess found it when she got up to go to the toilet.
"What's going on?!"
A sheep could be sold for a few hundred yuan. Moreover, this was a female sheep that could give birth to sheep.
The man didn't say anything. He looked carefully and patted the dead sheep's stomach.
Something was not right!
"Cut it open and see."
Most people didn't know how to kill a sheep. Don't think that killing a pig or a sheep is easy. Stabbing it with a knife is enough. This is actually a skill.
He specially invited a villager in the village who knew how to kill sheep and then cut the sheep open.
"What the f * ck!"
"What the f * ck is this?"
When they cut open the sheep's stomach, they found a lot of black spots were still moving inside. It was as if a large number of insects were moving on the rotten meat. It made people's scalps tingle.
Insects!
Everyone who saw all this turned pale and shivered all over.
This scene was too frightening.
The sheep's stomach had been swallowed by the horrible insects. The internal organs were full of holes. The insects were about to spread in all directions.
"Burn it with fire!" Someone shouted at the top of his lungs.
Immediately, someone brought gasoline and set the sheep on fire. The fire was fierce, and a disgusting smell spread out. There was a crackling sound.
"Why are there insects in the sheep?!"
Seeing this scene, people were very surprised and worried.
"Fengmin, what did you feed your sheep?" someone asked.
"Nothing?" His face was still pale. He hadn't come back to his senses.
If one sheep looked like this, would the rest of the sheep in the house look like this too?!
Would his family be okay?!
For a moment, he thought a little too far. Then, he ran back home like a madman.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Did you sell the sheep?" his wife asked unhappily when she saw him come back.
"Why didn't you wipe the blood on your hands?"
"Where's Haoxiang?" the man asked anxiously.
"He's in the house. What's wrong?"
The man rushed into the house and found his son happily playing with building blocks.
"Dad."
"Let's go see the doctor." He carried the child and walked out.
"What are you doing? It's so cold outside!" the woman came in and said. She felt her husband's behavior was very strange today.
"Put some clothes on him. Let's go see Yao," Wang Fengmin said.
"What's wrong?"
The woman asked. "The sheep that died today had worms in its stomach. Black worms!" He couldn't help but shiver at the mention of the worms.
"Worms? Where did the worms come from?!" The woman's face changed.
"How would I know? What if the worms entered our body?!"
This was what he was most worried about. A lot of worms were in his stomach. Just thinking about it made him scared.
"Let's go!" The woman hurriedly put clothes on her son. Then, the family went outside the clinic.
Not long after Wang Yao went down the hill, he heard the sound of someone opening the door and entering the clinic. The sound of the door closing was very loud. He frowned. Then, he saw a family from the same village rushing in.
"Uncle, Auntie."
"Yao, quickly check if there are worms in Haoxiang's stomach," the man anxiously said.
"Worms?!" Wang Yao was stunned.
"What worms?"
"Hurry up and check."
Wang Yao hurriedly diagnosed the six or seven-year-old child after hearing that.
"Could it be that the worms have already entered the villagers' bodies?"
However, after a careful examination, he found that the child's body was healthy and normal. There were no parasites at all.
"He's fine."
"He's fine? That's good! "Wang Fengmin was relieved.
"Can you check your aunt and me to see if there are any problems with us?" Wang Fengmin asked.
"Okay."
Wang Yao was not in a hurry to ask the reason. Instead, he checked their condition first.
"There are no worms in your body and your aunt's body. However, you have stones in your kidney. You have to be careful," Wang Yao said.
"What? Stones?"
"Yes, kidney stones." Wang Yao said. "But it's not a big problem. You should drink more water and jump hard. It's very likely that the stones will be expelled. Drink less wine and eat less meat in the future." Kidney stones were mostly caused by irregular work and rest.
"Now, can you tell me why you suspect there are worms in your stomach?"
"Don't mention it!"
Wang Fengmin immediately told Wang Yao what had happened in the morning.
"Poisonous insects!"
As soon as he heard that, Wang Yao immediately realized that the worms were most likely the poisonous insects left by Huang Zhicheng that night.
This was troublesome!
What he was most worried about had happened. These poisonous insects could reproduce, and according to him, their reproduction speed was quite amazing. This was a very scary thing. Just as the couple was worried, what if these poisonous insects entered the human body?
"Uncle, I'll go to your house with you." Wang Yao was still a little uneasy.
"Okay."
When they arrived at the man's house, he carefully checked the other sheep.
"Yao, you know about veterinary medicine?" Wang Fengmin asked curiously. He had only heard that the young man in the village had good medical skills, but he had never heard that he could treat livestock.
Wang Yao did not know this, but he had fed medicine to San Xian from time to time when he was on the mountain. Therefore, he had a certain understanding of the physical condition of animals. In fact, in the way of medicine, humans and animals had similarities. Moreover, on this planet, animals were actually equal.
