The car drove for more than an hour, and the road began to become more remote, and the cement road built began to become bumpy, and the car also seemed bumpy during the journey.
This caused Chu Yiyi and Tang Qianqian on both sides to lean against Gaoshan from time to time, making him very embarrassed.
If it were before, he would naturally not feel anything.
But since he heard Jiang Xinyue say that the two of them liked him, he wanted to keep a little distance from the two of them, and this kind of scene would feel a little awkward.
Tang Qianqian and Chu Yiyi didn't think anything was wrong, and they didn't know what Gao Shan was thinking at this time.
We continued on the bumpy road for another half an hour, and in the end there was no cement road anymore, only dirt roads with potholes.
Fang Tianhao introduced: "There are relatively few villages in front, so the road has not been built into it. This section of the road will be poorer. You need to hold on tighter, but we are almost there, not far away."
After another ten minutes, the car stopped in front of a village.
"Are you here?" Gao Shan asked.
"Not yet, but there have been several cases of patients in this village. Because they were suspected to be contagious and for the convenience of management, all the patients were moved to the innermost village. All the patients are there. Do you want to go down and have a look?
"Fang Tianhao turned around and asked.
"Since we're all here, let's go take a look first."
The car stopped, Gao Shan, Tang Qianqian, and Chu Yiyi also got out of the car, and then walked into the village.
"Rural people usually get up early. It's autumn harvest time now, so apart from the old and young, there should be no one in the village at this time!" Fang Tianhao led a few people forward and introduced them as they walked.
The layout of houses in the north is different from that in the south. In the countryside, they are all red-brick and flat-tile houses, and every house has a small garden surrounded by a wooden fence.
When a group of people entered the village, Gao Shan found that it was completely different from what Fang Tianhao introduced, because the village was not very quiet, because there were many people on the streets, not just old and young, but also middle-aged men and women.
Moreover, they were chasing and playing like children.
"Oops!" Fang Tianhao's face became serious when he saw this situation.
Before Gao Shan had time to ask what was going on, he heard a scream, and then saw all those people running away, each one looking panicked, as if they saw a monster.
Those screams startled Gaoshan and others.
Tang Qianqian asked with a confused look on her face: "Are we scary?"
She noticed that those people were suddenly frightened after seeing them, and then ran away screaming.
Fang Tianhao sighed and explained: "It's not because of you, it's not right. To be precise, it's because of you, but I don't blame you either!"
Tang Qianqian interrupted: "A donkey's lip is not a horse's mouth, so organize your words before speaking."
One moment he said he was not scared by them, and the next moment he said he was scared by them. Who can understand?
Fang Tianhao took a breath and reorganized his words: "They are no longer normal people, they are all sick!"
"What!"
Gao Shan, Tang Qianqian and Chu Yiyi looked at each other, and they all looked very different.
Because they just saw that those people were quite normal and lively, healthy and did not look like patients at all.
A sick patient can be seen at a glance. His energy and spirit will be much worse, and his mental state will also be very low.
Gao Shan just scanned a few people, his eyes were very bright and his face was radiant, as if he was sick.
But then I thought about it, Fang Tianhao also introduced that they were not ordinary patients, they were mentally ill, which may be why Gao Shan didn't observe them.
Fang Tianhao continued: "After they get sick, they will behave differently than usual. They will become very simple and naive, and they will also become very timid. When they see any recognition that they are used to, they will behave differently."
Anything other than what you know will be frightened.
For example, the three of you are strangers to them, something beyond familiarity, so they became panicked when they saw you, and then chose to run away. They should have hid back in their homes."
After hearing this, Gao Shan and the others completely understood the meaning of Fang Tianhao's words.
Those people were frightened, but it was not their fault. It was because those people were sick and were too timid.
Fang Tianhao glanced at the suddenly quiet village and said: "This village is not big to begin with. There are only more than a hundred people in total. Nearly half of the people were infected before, and some people left after getting sick. There are still some people who are reluctant to let go.
I didn't believe in the evil after I left, so I stayed. However, no one got sick in the next few days, but I didn't expect that they didn't escape in the end.
Let’s go door to door and see if there are still people who are not infected.”
Fang Tianhao said, leading the way, and at the same time made a phone call to inform the villagers of what happened in the village, and to notify people to take them to the village ahead and centrally monitor them.
Gao Shan and the others first went to the first family. There were only two people in this family, a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law. The husband and children at home were all infected previously and were taken to the village ahead.
Fang Tianhao introduced with a sad look: "Last time, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of this family went to the market and the car back to the village broke down, so they stayed in the village and avoided the infection. But in the end, they were still infected.
There is no escape.”
After hearing this, Gao Shan sympathized with the family's plight. He looked at his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were huddled on the kang.
The two of them curled up and hugged each other, huddled in the corner, and secretly glanced at the group of them.
The faces of one old man and one young man were pale with fright, and their faces were full of fear, as if they were like evil ghosts.
Tang Qianqian sighed and said, "This is the first time I have discovered that I am so scary!"
Fang Tianhao reassured: "Don't be afraid, we are not bad people, we are here to appease you. Look, I have candy here!"
Fang Tianhao said as he took out two lollipops from his pocket and shook them in front of him.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, the fear in their eyes receded a little, they stared at the lollipop in Fang Tianhao's hand, and even drooled.
Tang Qianqian kept staring at the expressions of the two people and said: "They seem to have become a little stupid, and there are signs of relapse into childhood, giving people a childish yet silly feeling."
Gao Shan nodded, agreeing with Tang Qianqian's judgment.
The daughter-in-law seemed to struggle for a long time, then slowly crawled to Fang Tianhao, snatched away the two lollipops, gave one to her mother-in-law, and kept the other for herself. It took a lot of effort to tear open the package.
Putting the lollipop in his mouth.
While eating sweets, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both showed innocent but silly smiles, as if they were very happy.
Fang Tianhao looked at the two of them and felt even worse. He said, "You can't stimulate them when you face them. You have to deal with them slowly and let them relax their inner defenses in order to gain their trust."
