Chapter 948 Archibald's Family Farm
Suburbs of Massachusetts, Country M.
Gray-blue cumulus clouds rolled slowly across the sky, bringing up a cold wind that made the old sign "Archibald's Family Farm" standing on the roadside rattle.
The wind blew forward along an asphalt road, and soon an endless plain appeared in sight.
Large fields of corn stood tall and swayed on the plain.
Peeling fences appeared on both sides of the road, extending forward.
The dark clouds moved, and the cornfield was gradually left behind. The second thing that appeared was the cattle and sheep scattered among the grass.
The livestock didn't care at all about the cloudy day without any sunshine. They swung their tails to drive away mosquitoes and walked slowly and leisurely on the grass.
Two lean sheepdogs lay on the high ground of a haystack nearby, their ears turning from time to time and their eyes scanning the herd.
From afar, a wooden house with red exterior walls appeared behind the sheepdog, leaning against a forest.
"...Woo."
Suddenly, the two sheepdogs seemed to have discovered something. They stood up and faced a certain direction. They lowered their heads, turned up their lips, and let out low growls.
At this time, in the wooden house, Mr. and Mrs. Archibald had just got up.
After walking down the wooden stairs to the first floor, the husband, Len Archibald, subconsciously looked outside through the window and said, "Today's weather is still so bad. What happened recently? Why has it been so unbearably cloudy for several days in a row?"
His wife Norma Archibald stood in the kitchen, holding two plates of breakfast, turned around and said nonchalantly: "The weather is the most unpredictable thing in the world, Len. Those weather forecasters never get it right."
Norma put a sandwich made with fresh vegetables from the farm on the table, and Len remained standing there.
Looking outside, Lun couldn't help but complain again: "If it's cloudy every day, I won't be able to tell what time it is."
Hearing this, Norma also looked inside the house.
The dark clouds were still slowly piling up and rolling. It was clearly half past six in the morning, but there was only a layer of gray light in the room.
The gray-blue clouds affected the light, and the freshly baked sandwiches on the table seemed to have a layer of moldy blue.
Norma shrugged. "Why, you want to run over to the clouds and say, 'For the love of God, could you please move your carriage and leave here?'"
Lunn laughed so hard that the cold wind lingering in the cabin swayed back and forth.
Norma turned and walked back to the kitchen, picked up the coffee pot, and prepared to pour two cups of hot coffee to dispel the chill that shouldn't have existed at this time of year.
At this time, Lunn sat down at the dining table and subconsciously took out his mobile phone to see what was new that day. He unlocked the screen of the phone but frowned again.
The phone shows no signal.
The farm is located in a remote area and this kind of thing happens occasionally, but he didn't care. He put the phone back, reached out for the remote control and turned on the TV.
"Snapped!"
When the TV was turned on, there was a flash of snow noise at first, and then the news channel popped up.
But the TV screen was twisting and turning left and right, and the news anchor who was reporting the news was distorted into three afterimages of different tones.
The image quality is also very blurry due to a large amount of noise. The host's face looks like a blurry mass of white, with only three black dots, the eyes and the mouth, moving.
"...Zizi...report...Zizi...abnormal situation in the state...Zizi...dispatched...investigation...Zizizi..."
"Please sizzle... No, sizzle, please..."
"Snapped!"
The screen went black, and Lun turned off the TV with a bored look on his face.
It seems that there is a big problem with the signal today. I'm afraid I'll have to call someone to repair it.
You can make an appointment for repairs and wait for someone to come to your home to fix it. It may take two or three repairs before it is fixed. It will take several weeks to complete the repair each time.
Lunn pondered in his mind and couldn't help but sigh.
Norma poured the first cup of coffee, picked up the coffee pot and started pouring the second cup.
"what--!"
At this moment, an extremely sharp and loud scream broke the tranquility of the farm and came from outside the wooden house. In the forest, a group of flying birds were startled and rushed towards the gray-blue sky.
The sound of intense dog barking could be heard from afar.
Frightened, the coffee cup fell from Norma's hand to the ground, making a crisp ping-pong sound and the glass shattered all over the floor.
A few minutes later, the couple dressed and walked out of the house.
All I saw was a plain farm shrouded in endless dark clouds. Under the pale but dim sky, I could clearly see a large group of livestock gathered in one place.
As the two of them rushed over there, Norma said, "Was that a human sound just now? It didn't seem like it."
Lunn said, "Maybe a wild animal escaped from the woods."
At this point, Lunn thought of something and said, "Wait, let me get a gun first." Then he turned around and walked towards the warehouse next to the wooden house.
Norma slowed down her pace, but still carefully approached the direction where the herd was moving.
When Len came back with a carefully maintained shotgun, he saw Norma had walked into the fence that separated the livestock pen. She was standing with her back to him, staring motionlessly at the herd of livestock gathered in front of her.
"what happened?"
As Lunn spoke, he walked forward and came to Norma's side. Now that Norma's vision was no longer blocked, he saw the scene in the herd and suddenly stopped moving.
——Chickens, cows, sheep, and even the only four horses on the ranch were seen forming several circles inside and outside the couple in a precise and orderly formation.
There was only one gap in the circle, as if it was a gap that was deliberately left for them to see. Facing them, they could see the cow that had just given birth in the center of the circle, and underneath the cow, that...
"What the hell is that?!" Lunn took a breath and whispered, "Thank God, our cow gave birth to a monster!"
Norma said nothing.
They saw that under the cow was a bulging thing with dozens of hooves. Its body seemed to have been skinned but not completely, with some brown hairs scattered on the pink flesh.
The sheepdogs surrounded the couple, leaning over and growling at the still squirming thing.
After staring blankly for a few seconds, Norma suddenly realized something and pointed at the herds of livestock around her and said, "They...they are all pregnant!"
Lun looked in the direction she pointed, and saw that the bellies of the cattle, sheep and horses around him were swollen, as if they were pregnant.
Lun whispered, "This is impossible!" How could all the livestock on the farm become pregnant overnight?
The movement of the two men seemed to disturb the herd of animals, which began to stir, stamping their hooves and shaking their heads.
Lunn came to his senses and immediately said, "Take them all back to the shed first."
Norma said, "Let me check them out later." She used to be a veterinarian.
The two men cooperated with the sheepdogs to drive the livestock back to their respective sheds. For some reason, the livestock were particularly uncooperative today, and they took a lot of effort to accomplish all this.
The last sheep bleated, left the gray-blue sky, and entered the dim sheepfold.
The farm became quiet for a moment on the cloudy day.
The clouds seemed to be gathering.
The couple now had no time to think about the weather. They returned to the plains where the herds were active, and Lun pulled the safety of his shotgun.
"boom--!"
The sheepdog barked anxiously.
The strange thing born from the cow on the ground was shot with a bullet, and it twitched and then stopped moving.
Lun raised the muzzle of his gun and stared at the motionless mass of flesh on the ground. Just as he was about to say something, a long car horn drowned out his voice.
Len and Norma turned and saw a car drive up the road to their farm and stop behind them.
The car door opened, and two young men and an old man with a gray beard and glasses got out. Facing the gray sky, they waved at the two men and shouted:
"Hey! Good morning, everyone! We are a research team from a university. We want to investigate the mountainous area near your farm, so we came to say hello to you!" (End of this chapter)
