Chapter 35: A false alarm
At four o'clock, Yang Shitian and others arrived downstairs of the hotel, opened the door and got out of the car and hurriedly ran upstairs, to the room where the old woman lived, Feifei was sleeping, and the old woman heard that someone was coming in, so she stood up and asked who it was.
Yang Shitian was a little anxious: "Mom, I have something I want to ask you!" The old woman staggered, her hands kept groping in the air, looking for the source of the sound, "Feng Gui, Mom's eyes can't see, where are you." β
"Mom, your eyes..."Yang Shitian stepped forward and held the old woman's hands.
"Hey, this person's eyes are old and old, it's okay. The old woman interrupted Yang Shitian to speak.
Yang Shitian tilted his head and sighed, "Mom, I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow!" The old woman pouted and waved her hand and shook her head, "Hmm... No, no, no, don't spend all that unjust money. β
"Big brother!" Erlen'er deliberately reminded the purpose of the trip, and Yang Shitian glanced at Feifei, "Mom! Didn't Feifei eat toads before? Have you ever been poisoned?"
The old woman was a little stunned: "Oh... This is not true, but Feifei had smallpox when he was a child, and I didn't have the money to take him to the hospital at that time, and I heard that toads are also medicinal herbs, so I rushed to the doctor, caught two and gave them to eat, and he was fine in a week. β
"Can I cure smallpox with a toad?" Erlen'er asked, Zhang Zhi thoughtfully, "Big brother, why don't we let Scar try?"
Yang Shitian didn't answer, but he also had this meaning in his heart.
"What's wrong Feng Gui?" the old woman asked, Yang Shitian didn't answer, and helped the old woman to the bed, "Mom, you have a good rest." β
"Is something wrong with Feng Gui?" the old woman asked again, and Yang Shitian covered the old woman with a quilt, "It's okay Mom, it's just that one of my brothers was bitten by a toad." β
The old woman didn't ask, Yang Shitian glanced at the old woman a little anxiously, "Mom, I'm leaving!" The old woman nodded, and the three of them walked downstairs again, and when they got to the car, Zhang Zhi handed over a cigarette, "Big brother, what do you think?"
"What's the matter?" Yang Shitian took the cigarette, fastened his seat belt, and Zhang Zhi handed Erlen'er another one, "Feed Scar and eat toad!"
Erleng lit a cigarette and took a puff, "Big brother, I think you can try it, anyway, the scar has already become that force, it's better to gamble!"
Yang Shitian didn't answer, he looked out the window while smoking, and Zhang Zhi asked while driving, "Don't you think it's strange, big brother?"
Yang Shi poured out a puff of smoke and didn't squint, "I know what you want to say, but this person's life is at stake, and he can't make international jokes!"
Erleng and Zhang Zhi heard Yang Shitian say this, and they didn't come up with ideas, the three of them didn't say anything all the way, each thinking about it, Yang Shitian said this point, no matter what way to think, the starting point is to save people, the distance is not far, it will take about 20 minutes, the police car is gone, Mu Heng and the others are gone, Yang Shitian thought all the way, and finally decided to give him a try, the three of them got off the car and walked more quickly, but before they arrived at the old woman's house, they stammered and shouted in horror, and turned into the ears of the three people.
"Holy, don't... Don't come here, smack... Don't come here!"
Yang Shitian sped up a few steps, followed by Zhang Zhi and Erleng.
"How..."
Yang Shitian walked out of the alley and just wanted to ask, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him, at this time the stammering was barefoot, holding slippers around the scar, and surrounded by toads with bulging necks.
Stammered vigilantly at the toads around him, and his tone was a little frightened, "Big brother, you're finally here, mom, these toads want to eat scars." β
Yang Shitian and Erleng didn't say a word, and bent down to take off their shoes.
"Wait!" Zhang Zhi seemed to have noticed something, stretched out his hand to stop the two, Yang Shitian bent over and his posture remained unchanged, "What's wrong?" Seeing a toad jumping towards Scar, he stammered and hurriedly slapped back.
Zhang Zhigang wanted to answer, but Yang Shiting's mobile phone rang, the latter answered the phone, and the former walked towards the toad.
Yang Shitian turned on the hands-free, "Hey, Director Mu?"
Mu Heng's tone was a little hurried, "Shitian, you didn't let Scar take any medicine, right?"
Yang Shitian stood up straight: "I'm not a pig!" Listening to the sound of footsteps echoing on the other end of the phone, Mu Heng should be on the phone while walking, "Shitian, this toad venom is very unusual!"
"I'm very busy now, so I'll hang up first!" Yang Shitian was a little impatient and wanted to hang up the phone, if the ordinary scar would not change like this, Mu Heng obviously said a bunch of nonsense.
"Listen to me first, this toad toxin can cause human organ failure and paralyze the nervous system, including blood vessels and muscle tissues throughout the body. β
"How do you know?" asked Yang Shiting.
"Big brother, they captured one!" The stammering said while scaring the toad, probably because he was frightened, and the stammering spoke much more fluently.
"This is just a preliminary test report, we are going to the laboratory," Mu Heng said.
Yang Shi heard Mu Heng say this, and his heart was half cold, "Is there any medicine that can cure it?"
Mu Heng pondered for a moment, "Not for the time being, it's almost time to the laboratory, and the doctor won't let me call inside!"
Yang Shitian hung up with a hum and put the phone in his trouser pocket, "Zhang Zhi?"
Zhang Zhi didn't answer, just stared at the toad, but he stammered so anxiously that his head was sweating, "Big brother, think of a way!"
"Stammer, you come out!" Zhang Zhi got up and said, stammering with some doubts, "What about the scar?"
"You come out first!" Zhang Zhi said again, stammering and looking at Yang Shitian, the latter nodded, and when he saw this, he jumped out of the toad encirclement and ran to Yang Shitian's side, the toad did not step forward in groups to bite the scar as everyone thought, but tilted his head and looked around, and screamed for a moment.
The three of them looked puzzled, and they couldn't figure out the situation for a while, "Zhang Zhi, can you do it?" Yang Shitian asked, Zhang Zhi didn't squint, "Big brother, didn't you find that these toads are obviously much bigger than the one that bites the scar?"
"Aren't they all toads?" Erlen'er asked, stammering and nodding, Zhang Zhi pretended to be profound, and hugged his hand to his chest, "Look at it!"
The three of them didn't answer, they looked at the dense toad in front of them, if people with dense phobia saw it, it was estimated that they would be scared to death, the toad screamed for nearly five or six minutes and then stopped, only to see a palm-sized toad, croaked, and jumped towards Scar, Scar's eyes were wide open, and he said something, but the four of them couldn't hear clearly.
"Dig the groove and eat it!" Erleng pointed to the toad on Scar's face and said, Zhang Zhi was still profound, stammering and blindfolding, while Yang Shitian was anxious in his heart, quietly watching what the toad wanted to do.
Wail!
Quack...
The first toad tilted his head and screamed again, and the next scene subverted the worldview of the four, and the rest of the toads seemed to obey the order, and jumped towards Scar with black pressure, and Scar's eyes opened wider.
"Holy, Scar!" Erleng stepped forward to drive away, but Zhang Zhi hurriedly stopped, "Erleng, calm down!"
"I'm calm down your mother, Lao Tzu's brothers are about to be eaten and only bones are left, let Lao Tzu get out of the way!" Erleng raised his fist, and Yang Shitian hurriedly shouted, "Erleng!"
Erleng was yelled at by Yang Shitian, calmed down a lot and panted, Yang Shitian said again, "Let's take a look first, this person has blood on his body, and he will flow if he is bitten!"
Erleng heard Yang Shitian say this, and hurriedly looked at the scar that was crawling all over his body by the toad, and there was no blood flowing out, and he apologized to Zhang Zhi with a smile, Zhang Zhi smiled and waved his hand and said, they are all their own brothers who will not see each other, and they are all big brothers, but this did not calm Erleng's heart, but blamed himself for being a little reckless, this shopping shop around, seeing that Yang Shitian has more and more brothers, Erleng was afraid that Yang Shitian would be biased, but this did not make Erleng's loyalty to Yang Shitian decrease, but told himself to be calm in the future, not just for a reckless manγ
"Big brother, how do I feel, hiss... The toad seems to be licking the lumps of flesh on Scar's body?" Erleng asked.
Yang Shitian was a little hesitant, the toads were crowded around, constantly exchanging positions, and they all looked the same, which would inevitably make people a little dazzled, "Let's take a look first!"
After about five or six minutes, the toads jumped away one by one, and saw that the scar was not bleeding, but milky white liquid.
"It's... What is this?" stammered as he asked, obviously asking Zhang Zhi.
"Toad's poisonous pulp!" Zhang Zhi replied, Yang Shitian did not answer, but looked happy, because Scar was coughing.
"Big... Big brother, cough cough cough..."Scar can speak, but he can't stand up!"
"Awesome Zhang Zhi!" Erleng ran over first, helped the scar up, Yang Shitian followed, squatting down and being a little anxious, "How is it, how does it feel?"
Scar gasped, "Big brother, I feel like my brother is so itchy!"
"I'm scarring the scar, the toad gave you a mouth?" Erleng said loudly, the matter was naturally in a good mood, and several people surrounded the scar, smiling from ear to ear.
"Fuck you!" Scar said weakly, then looked at Zhang Zhi, "Thank you, buddy!"
Zhang Zhi gave Scar a fist, "If I had known that you would be so polite, I should have let you die here!" Scar laughed dryly twice and did not answer.
Yang Shitian told Scar not to move, and looked carefully at those pimples, there were obvious signs of swelling, and there was a small hole at the tip of each pimple, which was still bubbling out with white pulp.
"Zhang Zhi, how do you know?" Yang Shi tilted his eyes without squinting, Zhang Zhi scratched his head, "Blind!"
"But you're right!" Yang Shitian motioned to Zhang Zhi to continue, Zhang Zhi was now full of honor, clearing his throat and preparing to start speaking.
"First of all, this toad is not a social animal, but there are so many toads that pop up all of a sudden, I think it should be related to that water column!" Zhang Zhi glanced at Yang Shitian and the others, but did not answer.
Zhang Zhi continued, "Since it is not a social animal, there must be no leader!"
Several people understood this in their hearts, so Zhang Zhi did not elaborate, but said the key point: "The toad that bit the scar is relatively small, but these are relatively large." β
"You mean, males are poisonous and females are not poisonous?" Yang Shitian asked, Zhang Zhi nodded, "Yes!"
"And how do you know that those toads won't gnaw at me but save me?" Scar asked.
"It's very simple, if the toad wants to gnaw you, isn't the stammering human? Zhang Zhi said.
"Yes, yes, I... I also find it strange that they are on one by one, not together. He stammered.
Yang Shitian nodded, "Then how do you know that this toad will save Scar?"
Zhang Zhi didn't rush to answer, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Yang Shitian and a few people, but Scar was sick, so he directly inserted the cigarette into Scar's mouth and lit it.
"Say it quickly!" Yang Shi poured out a smoke ring, and Zhang Zhi lit a cigarette, "Big brother, everything has a spirit, a weasel can become an immortal, but a toad can't become a sperm?"
Erleng glanced at the toads around him, "Ouch, Zhang Zhi, don't say so evil about your dog!"
Zhang Zhi ignored Scar, "Look at the problem and think of a solution according to the problem itself, you think about it, if these are ordinary toads, will you do this?"
Zhang Zhi can be said to wake up the dreamer with a word, Yang Shitian looked around, there was neither grass nor water source, so how did these toads come about, Yang Shitian did not know, but he knew that these toads had been here for many years, because the old woman said that Feifei suffered from smallpox when he was a child, and he was cured by the toad.
The unusual toad, the underground water column without splashes, all this seems so weird, but you have to start from step by step to meditate far, and the most important thing at the moment is to settle the scar and let him recuperate.
Several people had their own thoughts, but Scar looked at the cigarette on his mouth with wide eyes, "Damn, Zhang Zhi Zhang Zhi, help Lao Tzu throw away the cigarette butt, it's about to burn to Lao Tzu's mouth." β
Zhang Zhi was a little puzzled, seeing that the crotch of the scar was full of soot, he reached out to help the scar take off the cigarette butt, "Why don't you know how to move by yourself?"
"I'll move your mother, if I can move Lao Tzu, I'll still call you!" Scar scolded, Yang Shitian was a little worried, "Scar, you can't move your hand yet?"
Scar was a little aggrieved, "Yes, big brother, I feel it but can't move!"
"Can you move down there, didn't you say itchy at first?" Erleng asked, Scar frowned a little, trying to feel, "It seems that it can't!"
"Holy, you're done with Scar, you're a eunuch. Erleng smiled, Scar shook his head, a little desperate, "I can't!"
"Scar, don't get excited, I'll call and ask Director Mu about the inspection situation!" Yang Shitian took out his mobile phone, but no one answered two calls in a row, so he had to put his mobile phone in his trouser pocket.
"How's it going?" Scar asked knowingly, his tone was a little frustrated, and Yang Shitian comforted, "It's okay, it's okay, believe me." β
"Lao Tzu's happy life!" Scar wanted to cry without tears, and Erleng and the others couldn't help laughing.
"It's okay Scar, the prostate is high!" Erleng comforted, and Scar hit Erleng's shoulder with his head, "Fuck you, Lao Tzu won't do it!"
"Okay Scar, you... You're trying it tomorrow, and you can't move your hands and feet, maybe it's only temporary!" Yang Shitian said.
Scar forced a smile on his face, "Yes, yes, yes, what the eldest brother said is right!"
Yang Shitian didn't answer, glanced at the toads around him, and ordered Erleng and others to carry Scar into the car, and the place where Scar was settled was naturally the Little Star Hotel, but he didn't live in a room with the old woman, and the boss was not there and there was no room clerk, Scar could only speak, and his limbs couldn't move and needed someone to take care of him, so Yang Shitian took the key to the 201 room, so it was convenient for Erleng and others to serve Scar, and instructed them to take turns to take care of it until Scar was good, but Yang Shitian didn't dare to pack the ticket.
Afterwards, Mu Heng didn't call Yang Shiting, Yang Shitian saw that the sun was in the west, so he asked Zhang Zhi to send him back to the community, and invited Yang Shitian to drink tea at Ying Chuanming, the latter only said that he was tired today, and Ying Chuanming was not forced, Yang Shitian was already more than six o'clock when he arrived at home, and seeing that Mu Wanyi had not come back, Yang Shitian felt a little bored, so he sat in the living room and watched TV.
