Chapter 263: Source of Infection
After listening to the words of the old village chief, Zhou Xiaochuan's face was full of guilt: "Dad, Mom, sister and brother-in-law, I'm really sorry for making you worry about me." ”
Zeng Xiangying raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "You kid, as long as it's okay, what do you apologize to us?" Oh, by the way, you were busy all night yesterday, and you slept most of the day today, you must be hungry, right? Mom, I'll make you something to eat! ”
She was about to turn around when she heard someone around her babbling:
"Sister-in-law, I don't need to trouble you about this, my family has already cooked poached eggs for Xiaochuan......
"Brother Zhou must have been tired before, he just woke up at this time, and it is estimated that he can't eat anything greasy, so my family specially boiled a pot of Maoren red dates and millet porridge for him, so that he can replenish his qi and blood ......."
"My family has also prepared some nourishing medicinal food, so I'll bring it to Xiaochuan......"
Without waiting for Zeng Xiangying to refuse, these people dispersed. And when they reappeared in the living room, each with a steaming bowl in their hands.
In this bowl, there are fragrant poached eggs, refreshing porridge with red dates and millet, and mouth-watering nourishing medicinal food ......and so on.
Looking at this bowl of food that seemed ordinary but was full of the true affection of the villagers, Zhou Xiaochuan was moved, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You guys are too enthusiastic, aren't you?" My belly is so big, even if I burst it, I can't eat so much! ”
In the end, it was the old village chief who came forward to help Zhou Xiaochuan choose a bowl of Maoren red date millet porridge, which was regarded as relieving him of this siege.
While drinking the millet porridge with red dates and red dates, Zhou Xiaochuan didn't forget to ask the matter: "What about Dean Chen?" ”
The old village chief originally wanted to smoke, but after glancing at Zhou Xiaochuan, he put the cigarette back in his pocket, obviously afraid that his smoking would affect Zhou Xiaochuan, and replied: "They are cooperating with the disease control personnel who rushed from the county to find some source of infection inside and outside our village." I asked a few of the lads in the village to help them out as well, and they would let us know as soon as there was news. Hey, speaking of which, they've been looking for a long time, why haven't they found the source of infection yet,...?"
Before he could finish his words, he saw a sweaty young man hurriedly running in and shouting, "I have found the source of infection, I have found the source of infection...... ”
"Found the source of the infection? Where is it? What is it? Zhou Xiaochuan stood up suddenly, and asked in a hurried tone. The other people in the living room only knew that the source of infection was more important, but they didn't know how harmful it was, so the reaction was not strong, and they even wondered why Zhou Xiaochuan was so excited.
"It's those ploughing cows in our village!" The man panted and said: "Everyone, go and take a look, those doctors from the county town have to kill and burn the cattle in our village, saying that only in this way can the source of infection be fundamentally eliminated and the resurgence of the new mutant influenza virus ......." ”
As soon as he heard this, the living room suddenly exploded, and almost everyone stopped doing it, and rushed out of the house with a lot of shouts, to find those doctors from the county to theorize.
Because of the rugged mountain roads, there are no farming machines in Hongdou Village, and every time the fields are cultivated, they rely on human and animal power. And the cattle in the village are the main force in farming. Without them, I don't know what it would be like to be tired of farming by manpower! What's more, every year, many men from Hongdou Village go out to work, and the family farm work is handed over to the elderly and women to do. Although the cattle can be bought again if they are gone, but now the market of this cattle is thousands of dollars, and several are tens of thousands, and it is not easy to make up so much money with the economic situation of the villagers of Hongdou Village.
Of course, tens of thousands of yuan is not a big amount for Zhou Xiaochuan, but he is not in a hurry to express his position, but wants to follow the villagers to see the situation of those ploughing cattle before making a decision. If there was still a possibility of rescuing those ploughing cattle, he would never give up! …,
Who made him a veterinarian?
Soon, Zhou Xiaochuan followed the emotional crowd to a barren grass slope outside the village. The cattle that have been identified as the source of infection have been brought here by the staff of the county health bureau and the CDC, and are preparing to dispose of them.
Seeing the group of people rushing out of the village with angry faces, the staff of the county health bureau and the CDC couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't figure out what this group of menacing guys wanted to do. However, their doubts did not last long, for soon they heard a rebuke from the crowd: "Why kill and burn these ploughing oxen? They are the main labor force in the village, and if they are gone, what will happen to the upcoming spring ploughing? ”
After figuring out the villagers' intentions, the staff of the county health bureau and the CDC hurriedly explained: "After our investigation, we found that these farming cattle were the culprits who caused the children to be infected with the new mutant influenza virus, which is what we call "the source of infection,!" If they are not disposed of as soon as possible, the new mutant influenza virus may come back at some point! At that time, it is not only children who can be infected, but even adults can be infected! ”
Chen Taiyan also stood up and said: "They are right, if the source of infection is not controlled and eliminated as soon as possible, the consequences will be quite serious and terrible!" Besides, since these farming cattle have been infected with this new mutant influenza virus, even if we don't do it, we can't support many people to ",..."
Hearing these explanations, the emotional villagers fell silent. They had all experienced the terrible plague that had happened last night. If it weren't for Zhou Xiaochuan's danger and being ordered to turn the tide, not to mention that all the children in the village would have suffered, I'm afraid that few would have survived in the end, right? With such terrifying strength, no one really wants to go through it a second time! But to just watch these ploughing cattle being killed and burned, the villagers felt very unbearable. Among them, the value of the cattle is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is because these cattle have been raised in the village for several years, and the villagers have more or less some feelings for them.
Just when the villagers were in a dilemma, Zhou Xiaochuan stood up from the crowd: "Let me show these ploughing cattle first, maybe they can be saved." ”
Chen Taiyan was suddenly overjoyed: "Xiao Zhou, are you awake?" Why don't you take a break for a while? You were so tired last night. ”
If Chen Taiyan was still a little skeptical of his ability when he first met Zhou Xiaochuan, then after witnessing his superb acupuncture skills and miraculous acupuncture and curative effects, Chen Taiyan was convinced by this young man who was much younger than him. Of course, what he admires the most is Zhou Xiaochuan's noble spirit and extraordinary willpower to exhaust himself until he faints in order to save the lives of the children.
Standing beside Chen Taiyan was the official of the county health bureau who led the team this time. He didn't know Zhou Xiaochuan, so he couldn't help frowning, and asked Chen Taiyan in a low voice, "Who is this young man?" ”
Chen Taiyan hurriedly introduced: "He is the Zhou Xiaochuan I told you, if it weren't for him, the epidemic would not have been brought under control so quickly." ”
The official of the county health bureau suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out that he is the veterinarian who uses needles like a god on the Internet", ,..." The staff of the county health bureau and the CDC around him and behind him couldn't help but whisper, looking at Zhou Xiaochuan's eyes, they couldn't help but feel a little more respect and two points of curiosity.
Zhou Xiaochuan turned a deaf ear to the whispers of these people, and strode towards the sick ploughing cattle.
Although these ploughing cows could not understand human speech, they knew what had happened last night from the mouths of other animals, and when they combined them, they could guess what was going on. Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan striding over, they spoke: "Human, the children in the village were sick last night, was it because of us?" Are you here now trying to kill us? "In the past few days, almost all the animals in Hongdou Village and the mountains know that Zhou Xiaochuan understands the language of beasts. It is precisely for this reason that there are many fewer rats fighting on the beams of the Zhou family's house. …,
Zhou Xiaochuan walked up to them, stretched out his hand and gently stroked one of the cows, and said while observing its physical condition: "Don't worry, I am a veterinarian, and I will do my best to cure you." ”
"Regardless of the final result, we will thank you ......." After saying this, the ploughing cattle fell silent, as if waiting for the judgment of fate.
After seeing Zhou Xiaochuan's actions, the official of the county health bureau first subconsciously wanted to stop it, then stopped, and after a short hesitation, he ordered the people around him: "Let the villagers stay away, the elderly, children and the weak, don't let them watch the excitement here." ”
Chen Taiyan was a little surprised by his order: "Section Chief Liu, you go,...? ”
Section Chief Liu sighed lightly, looked at Zhou Xiaochuan, who was inspecting the cattle, and said softly: "I also came out of the mountain village and know what a ploughing cow means to the villagers. Since he's a great doctor and a veterinarian, let him give it a try. I only hope that he can really cure these ploughing cows. ”
Compared with others, Chen Taiyan, who has witnessed Zhou Xiaochuan's miracle, is full of confidence: "He can even cure the twenty or so children who have been infected with this disease, and these ploughing cattle will definitely be no problem!" ”
Section Chief Liu shook his head: "After all, the physiological structure of cattle and humans is different...... let's wait and see what the result will be." He looked up at his watch: "An hour, an hour at most!" After an hour, if the condition of these ploughing cattle still does not improve, we will have to follow the established plan! ”
