The daughter's cries resounded in the bathroom. Liu Zhiyue, who heard the commotion, rushed into the bathroom and stood in a row with her father.
Liu Changqing didn't think much and strode forward, squeezed in beside his mother-in-law, and pushed her hand away.
He used his left hand to pinch off the old turtle shell from the basin, and his right hand reached into the engine and took out a lighter.
Use a flame to burn the old turtle's tail.
Once a creature like the old turtle is bitten, it will not let go easily. There are many ways to make it loosen its mouth. One of them is to put it into the water. Because the old turtle bites to breathe, it will not let go after a while in the water.
It will naturally loosen its mouth within ten seconds.
Liu Changqing just saw what his mother-in-law did, but it didn't have much effect. Maybe it was because there was too little water in the basin, which couldn't make the old turtle relax.
That's why he thought of this method.
It was very effective. After burning for a few seconds, the old turtle that had been biting his daughter's index finger just now relaxed his mouth in an instant. He stretched out his head and kept shaking it, as if he wanted to bite Liu Changqing and pinched his body.
hand.
When the old turtle relented, An Yuanyao immediately pulled Liu Xiazhi, who was kneeling on the ground, into her arms, pinched her bloody hand and kept looking through it.
Her face was a little pale, and she was also shocked.
A small piece of Liu Xiazhi's index finger was bitten off, and blood flowed a little but not too much.
Seeing the wound on his daughter's hand, Liu Changqing raised his hand and threw the old turtle into the basin. Without saying anything else, he immediately went to his wife's side and hugged his daughter over.
"I'll take her to the hospital for a checkup first."
After the words fell, Liu Changqing walked out of the house with his crying daughter in his arms. With the sound of the door closing hard, the whole room became quiet again.
The three of them stood at the door, no one spoke.
Because he and his father went to see Zhou Shiyan and her daughter off by train, he didn't know what happened in this short period of time.
Looking at the two people who still looked a little frightened, Liu Zhiyue asked and expressed his confusion.
"Xia Zhi...how could you touch that thing?"
"I don't know either……"
An Yuanyao lowered her head. Even after a while, she still looked a little scared.
"I was changing the baby's diaper in the house... My mother was mopping the floor. After you and your dad went out, Xia Zhi has been playing with her mobile phone on the sofa... Just now, for some unknown reason, she suddenly ran to the bathroom to use her hands.
Poke, my mother and I didn't know it at first, if she hadn't cried so loudly after being bitten..."
"..."
After listening to his mother's words, Liu Zhiyue didn't know what to say.
Who knows what is going on in his sister's mind. Ever since Lao Turtle bought it, her father has been telling her not to touch it with her hands, and even gave her a chopstick to poke with.
After buying it from Lao Turtle, there have been no accidents in the past few days. Who would have thought that just after she and her father went out...she touched it with her backhand.
Thinking of this, Liu Zhiyue suddenly felt helpless.
My sister...
It seems...a little disobedient.
downstairs.
The car, which had just been parked for a short time, started again and drove towards the hospital.
Even after going downstairs, Liu Xiazhi, who was sitting in the back seat, was still crying at the top of her lungs, as if she could hardly breathe because she cried for too long.
All this happening to his daughter was seen by Liu Changqing, and his mood became uncontrollably worse.
I couldn't help but scold him.
"What did I tell you then? How many times have I told you that you can't touch it? Why don't you have a brain and have to poke it with your hands?"
"I...wuwuwuwu...I, I..."
A series of words "I" came out of her mouth, but the words were not completely spoken.
Hearing that his daughter could not understand what she was saying, the anger in Liu Changqing's heart dissipated a lot.
Seeing how pitiful she was, I couldn't bear to continue to hurt her.
Fortunately, there was a small hospital not far from home. When he arrived at his destination, Liu Changqing parked the car and rushed to the back seat, picked up the woman and rushed in.
To say it is a small hospital, it would be more appropriate to use the word clinic to describe it.
There was no need to register, because he had been here before to dispense medicine, so Liu Changqing took his daughter directly to the doctor's room.
Opened the door and walked in.
Talk as you walk.
"Doctor, my daughter was bitten by a turtle. Do I need tetanus?"
As Liu Changqing's words came out, the doctor who was examining a patient's mouth shifted his attention to Liu Changqing and his daughter.
Pause for a moment.
"Is it bleeding?"
"It flowed."
"Come, let me take a look."
With that said, the doctor who was originally facing the patient stood up from his seat and walked towards Liu Changqing.
His move made the patient who was seeing a doctor unhappy. He immediately stood up from his seat excitedly and faced the father and daughter.
He was so excited that he even made strange noises from his mouth.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"..."
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…Huh?”
When the father and daughter saw the patient in front of them, they were both stunned.
Even Liu Xiazhi, who cried all the way, forgot to cry when she saw the other person.
She let the doctor pull the bitten hand that she had been holding up, and stared blankly at the man in front of her with tearful eyes.
It's so... attention-grabbing.
After all... anyone who sees a living person with a light bulb stuck in his mouth will look stunned.
Liu Changqing and his daughter were no exception. When he saw the [symptoms] of the patient in front of him, he probably realized... It turns out that there are really strange things in this world.
The man's expression looked quite strange.
The raised hand was gesticulating inexplicably, and his mouth kept saying "Uh-huh...uh-huh!!"
He seemed to be saying something emotionally, but no one could understand what he meant.
Drool flowed down the corners of his mouth.
Seeing the other party like this, Liu Changqing felt very uncomfortable just looking at him.
What kind of torture would it be to have a light bulb stuck in your mouth?
Judging from the anxious eyes and flushed face of the other party...
It's not hard to tell... He must have had a light bulb stuck in his mouth for some time.
The doctor didn't pay attention to the movement from the man behind him. Instead, he pinched the fingers of Liu Xiazhi's hand and looked through them for a while before saying.
"It's not a big problem...but turtles are crustacean oviparous animals. Since they usually live in a muddy environment or in water, they may carry tetanus bacteria. To be safe, it's better to get a shot. Follow me."
"Ah? Um...Okay."
Upon hearing the doctor's words, Liu Changqing responded, put down the daughter he was holding, held his daughter's uninjured hand, and followed the doctor.
When the man with the light bulb in his mouth saw that the doctor was about to leave, he reacted emotionally and immediately rushed forward with a whimper.
He raised his hand and grabbed the other person's shoulder, as if he wanted to have a good argument with the other person.
