w.a.n.g Yao went to tell w.a.n.g Jianli what had happened.
“Contagious disease? People could die if they got infected?” w.a.n.g Jianli got the point immediately. He was shocked. “I need to let the local government know about it!”
“I’ll leave it to you then,” w.a.n.g Yao said. He knew this needed to be treated seriously.
“OK,” w.a.n.g Jianli said.
He didn’t dare delay. He immediately reported the disease to his superior. Then, his superior reported it to the local government in the county. People from the county decided to investigate what was happening before reporting it to the local government in the city. However, they spoke to an officer from the city’s Department of Health before sending a team of medical staff to the village.
“Sh*t! They always ask us to do these kind of things,” one of the team members said.
“Exactly,” another one said.
These people were full of complaints. They didn’t want to be there.
Even the doctors were afraid of the disease. Everyone was afraid of death. Plus, they didn’t have experience in managing a contagious disease, unlike the experienced doctors from big hospitals.
w.a.n.g Jianli was still waiting for a deputy chief from the county’s local government.
“Where is the person?” the medical team’s leader coldly asked.
No one would enjoying this type of work, but they didn’t have a choice.
“I’ll take you there.” w.a.n.g Jianli led the way.
Before they entered Chen Jiagui’s house, the doctors put on protective clothes.
Most of the villagers had never come across things like this, so many of them were curious about what was happening.
“That’s Chen Jiagui’s house. What is going on there?” a villager asked.
“Look at those doctors. Does Chen Jiagui have some contagious disease? I saw it on TV. When doctors are handling a patient with contagious disease, they wear clothes like that,” another villager said.
The villagers kept speculating.
“Go away. Stop looking!” w.a.n.g Jianli commanded when he saw a group of villagers come to see what was going on.
These villagers had no idea how dangerous the situation was.
“Secretary, what is going on here?” a villager asked.
“A rat problem,” w.a.n.g Jianli grumpily said. He couldn’t tell the villagers the truth because it would create chaos.
“Rat problem? Stop joking. I’m not stupid. Does Chen Jiagui have a contagious disease?” the villager asked.
“You seem to know a lot. Why don’t you go inside to check it out?” w.a.n.g Jianli gave him a harsh look.
“No, forget it,” the villager said.
Eventually, w.a.n.g Jianli convinced the villagers to go home.
It is really not easy to be the secretary of the village! Wait! I almost forget about w.a.n.g Yao! How can I handle something like this without his help?
w.a.n.g Yao was a key figure in the village. w.a.n.g Jianli trusted him more than the county doctors.
“The county sent people here?” w.a.n.g Yao immediately came over.
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Jianli said.
“Have they entered the house?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Yes, they just went inside,” w.a.n.g Jianli said.
“What the h.e.l.l? Who’s been living here?” The doctors began complaining soon after entering Chen Jiagui’s house.
The house was extremely dirty and messy. There was an unpleasant smell everywhere. It was not a house suitable for a person. It was a huge rubbish bin.
“He’s over there!” a doctor shouted.
The team members saw Chen Jiagui lying on the bed. He was still breathing.
“Is he still alive?” a doctor asked.
They all went to take a look.
“What the h.e.l.l!” The doctors were shocked.
After looking at his face and naked body, they all felt a chill from their toes to their heads.
“What happened to him?” a doctor asked.
They had never seen any patient like Chen Jiagui.
“What can we do about him?” another doctor asked.
“We have to lock this place up. We can’t handle this. Report it to the city department,” the leader of the team said.
They immediately gave up the idea of trying to save Chen Jiagui. He looked terrifying. After taking a few photos of Chen Jiagui, they left the house and helped one another clean up. They didn’t want to get infected.
“We should have taken stricter protective measurements,” a doctor said.
“Keep your voice down,” the team leader urged.
They immediately reported the situation to the city’s Health Department.
“Well, they asked us to wait here and lock up the house properly. We can’t just leave,” the leader said after talking to a senior officer from the Health Department.
“What?” All the other doctors were shocked.
“I knew they were gonna ask us to stay,” one of the doctors complained.
“I don’t think I need to go inside.” w.a.n.g Yao stopped as he saw the doctors coming out of Chen Jiagui’s house.
“Why?” w.a.n.g Jianli asked.
“They should be able to lock the place properly. By the way, did anything abnormal happen to Chen Jiagui?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“When has he ever been normal? He ate the meat of a sheep that took the rat poison. He even sold the dead sheep to a restaurant in the neighborhood village. If w.a.n.g Yisheng hadn’t found it out, more people would be infected,” w.a.n.g Jianli said.
“A sheep took rat poison?” w.a.n.g Yao curiously asked.
“Yes, why?” w.a.n.g Jianli asked.
“Nothing, I’ll talk to w.a.n.g Yisheng,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
He soon arrived at w.a.n.g Yisheng’s house. w.a.n.g Yisheng was reluctant to tell w.a.n.g Yao about Chen Jiagui and the dead sheep.
The news of Chen Jiagui becoming crazy traveled fast in a small village. w.a.n.g Yisheng’s house was pretty close to Chen Jiagui’s. He saw the doctors entering Chen Jiagui’s house, so he had a hunch that what happened to Chen Jiagui was related to his sheep. If Chen Jiagui ended up dead, he would be responsible. Therefore, he didn’t want to talk about it with w.a.n.g Yao.
“Can I ask you two things? First, was Chen Jiagui abnormal when you saw him the other day?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Nothing abnormal. He was just drunk,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“I see. Second, did your sheep really die from rat poison?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
w.a.n.g Yisheng didn’t answer. He knew exactly how his sheep had died. The sheep went crazy, so he had killed it with a shovel.
If he had witnessed what Chen Jiagui had become, he would have discovered that Chen Jiagui was just as crazy as his dead sheep. The whole thing was crazy.
“This is important. The Health Department knows Chen Jiagui was infected with a contagious disease. Do you think you can hide it?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
w.a.n.g Yisheng kept smoking. He didn’t expect things would turn out this way.
“Yao, tell me how Chen Jiagui is now?” w.a.n.g Yisheng asked.
“You can consider him dead,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“What?” w.a.n.g Yisheng dropped his cigarette. “Dead?”
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
Bang! w.a.n.g Yisheng’s wife dropped her cup.
“This had nothing to do with us,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“No one said it has anything to do with you,” w.a.n.g Yao said. “I want to know whether your sheep really took rat poison.”
“Not really,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said after hesitating for a while. He then told w.a.n.g Yao what happened the other night, including the sheep’s strange behavior.
w.a.n.g Yao was surprised. A crazy sheep, and a crazy man. It was definitely related.
“Wait! You said the sheep had been to Xishan Hill?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Yes. It ran out late in the afternoon. When I found it, it was already dark,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“Where about on Xishan Hill did the sheep run to?” w.a.n.g Yao had a very bad feeling about the whole situation.
He thought about the four places with deadly aura.
“Well, I can’t really tell,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“Can you take me there to have a look?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“OK,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
He led w.a.n.g Yao to the place where he had found the sheep the other night.
“This is it,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“I see. Thank you,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Yao, tell me the truth, does Chen Jiagui’s death has anything to do with me?” w.a.n.g Yisheng asked.
“Well, it’s hard to say. You couldn’t foresee the future.” w.a.n.g Yao tried to comfort w.a.n.g Yisheng. However, he didn’t have much knowledge about legal issues.
“Fine, I’ll go home now,” w.a.n.g Yisheng said.
“Don’t worry too much,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
No one would want broadcast strange things like this. Plus, the way w.a.n.g Yisheng handled the sheep was not right. However, he tried his best to correct his mistake quickly. After all, w.a.n.g Yisheng was a nice person.
“OK!” w.a.n.g Yisheng lit another cigarette before leaving.
w.a.n.g Yao quickly found the pit on Xishan Hill.
“What is this?” He found sheep footprints around the pit.
The ground still looked dark. The only difference was that this time, w.a.n.g Yao found bodies of animals, such as rabbits and sparrows.
“The aura is worse!” w.a.n.g Yao could feel the deadly atmosphere around the pit. It make him uncomfortable.
I have to stop this!
w.a.n.g Yao could see the footprints of the sheep clearly inside the pit. He was pretty sure the sheep had become crazy because it had come there.
The deadly atmosphere!
He thought about the words from a fortune teller.
I have to get people to block this place!
w.a.n.g Yao went to the other pits, which all had the same deadly atmosphere.
