Chapter 57: Do your best to obey fate
Yi Chichi expressed his helplessness, especially after arriving at the pig pen, the captain said -

"Yi Zhiqing, please help me take a look first."

Yi Chichi looked confused. No, she couldn't even look at people well. Why did the captain think she could look at pigs?
"Uncle, I can't."

"I know, you take a look first."

Yi slowly realized that the captain asked her to see if the pig was fake, and wanted to use her as a mascot to reassure her that it was real.

"Okay, let me take a look."

As a result, she really found a problem in the pig trough.

"Uncle, do you usually feed moldy corn and tusked potatoes to pigs?"

"No, it's impossible. We all feed normal corn. It's even more impossible to feed potatoes. There's not enough for humans, so how can we feed pigs."

"What's with all the moldy corn and tusky potatoes?"

She pointed at the corn in the pig trough and the potato pieces with sprouts on them and looked at the captain and the others.

With a whoop, the crowd rushed over.

Aunt Ma didn't mind it being dirty, so she grabbed the corn from the pig trough and took it out first to look at it and then smell it. Then she said with a serious face, "It's really moldy."

Without waiting for anyone to react, she took out another potato piece and frowned deeply.

"Where did the potatoes come from?"

No one can answer this question.

The pigs are raised by Ma Yong and a few widows and orphans in the village, and they are also responsible for the usual pig food.

"Can't pigs eat moldy corn and tusked potatoes?"

The captain was very anxious, but he also knew that now was not the time to worry about the whereabouts of the corn and potatoes. The top priority was to first figure out the cause of the pig's diarrhea and then find a way to solve the problem.

"No."

"What?"

The captain and the others were puzzled. The pig's diet was quite complex and they would eat everything.

Corn and potatoes are good foods for humans, and they should be the same for pigs. How come there is a problem with eating them?

"Moldy corn and potatoes alone can cause fungal poisoning in pigs. The symptoms are various, including diarrhea. Eating the two together..."

She sighed and pointed to the two pigs that had fallen to the ground unsteadily, "Anyway, these two are in the most serious condition."

The captain and the others followed her line of sight and felt like the sky was about to fall.

One of these two big pigs is the village's new year pig, and the other is a task pig. Once the pig dies...

"Yi Zhiqing, find a way to hold them together until the veterinarian arrives."

The secretary's words were pleading, and his brows and eyes were full of sorrow.

Yi Chi wanted to refuse, but before she could say anything, Aunt Ma and the others began to ask her for help.

"I can't look at pigs."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked disappointed.

"but……"

Is there a way to do this?
In an instant, everyone's despair came to life, and they asked with burning eyes, "But what?"

"There is a way to treat a dead horse like a living horse. I can't guarantee how effective it will be."

The implication is: whether you can hold on until the vet comes, let fate do your best.

"try."

The captain was able to stabilize the situation at the critical moment. He made the decision almost as soon as Yi Chichi finished speaking.

Yi Chichi emphasized again, "You can't blame me if you can't hold it. I can only try."

"I know, I don't blame you. Stop nagging and get down to business."

Okay, the words of the captain are enough.

"I want salt and boiling water."

The captain was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat, and he responded decisively.

Soon, Aunt Ma and the others left to prepare salt and boiling water as if their buttocks were on fire.

Yi Chichi shouted, "Be more prepared."

Pigs are big, so a small amount is not enough.

"understood."

The voices of Aunt Ma and the others came from far away. Seeing this, Yi Chichi entered the pig pen and started to check the pig's feces.

There are a total of six pigs in Kaoshantun, two large pigs, two half-sized pigs and two piglets. Possibly because of their young age and small size, the piglets could not compete with the big pigs for food. They ate less and had the least diarrhea. The feces they pulled out were not a big problem except for being a little loose.

100% sure to last until the vet arrives.

The condition of the two half-sized pigs is more serious, but not watery yet.

Only the big pig that fell down had watery stools.

"Does anyone know how many times they both pooped today?"

After inspecting the two big pigs, Yi looked at the anxious villagers.

"Many times."

An old man wearing a patched cotton-padded jacket came out. This was Old Man Zhang, one of the orphans in the village.

He is also one of the pig farmers.

After hearing Yi Chichi's words, he stood up and explained the situation in detail.

"They started pulling when we got up in the morning. As for these two..."

He rambled on a lot, and Yi Chichi extracted the key points through his words.

"That means these two pigs have pooped more than ten times?"

"Correct."

"Since the fifth time you took a water sample?"

"Seems to be."

The two of them asked and answered, and Yi Chichi's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard these words.

The captain and the others looked at Yi Chichi expectantly, but when they saw the change in her expression, their hearts skipped a beat. Is it hopeless?
The party secretary looked worried, "Xiao Yi, is the pig hopeless?"

"……I have no idea."

Salt water can be quickly absorbed by the body, can also increase gastrointestinal motility, and has a certain anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect.

It has a certain effect on diarrhea.

But the prerequisite is mild diarrhea. If the diarrhea is severe and watery for more than 10 days a day, salt water will have no effect, and you need to see a doctor in time.

"If the veterinarian arrives in time, these two big pigs might be saved."

Hearing her answer, everyone's hearts dropped.

Bai Chen and the others are no exception, they also share in this pig.

Although they get less meat than the villagers when they kill the New Year pig, it is more or less.

"Uncle, I'm going to ride a horse to see where Uncle Ma and the others are."

Bai Chen couldn't sit still anymore and took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the commune to find a veterinarian.

The corner of the captain's mouth twitched, "Can you ride a horse?"

Without waiting for Bai Chen to answer, he looked at Yang Tiezhu, a junior in the village, and said, "Zhuzi, go ahead."

"it is good."

Yang Tiezhu nodded, turned around and left the crowd quickly.

"Go and ask for boiling water and salt. Get as much as you have first."

"I go."

"Come two people and clean up the pigsty."

"Let's!"

Soon, a group of people were moved around under the command of Yi Chichi.

at this time--

"Here comes the water and salt."

Liu Yichang, known as the fastest runner in the village, rushed over carrying two thermos bottles.

Behind him is Liu An holding a basin and salt.

"Give me."

Yi Chichi rushed over quickly, snatched the thermos bottles and basins from their hands, and started working.

"Isn't this boiling water to make salt?"

The villagers who were watching her every move originally thought that she was going to do some fancy job to save the pigs, but they didn't expect that she was actually making boiled salt water, and they all started talking in surprise.

Yi didn't pay attention to these sounds for a long time. After mixing the salt water according to the proportion, she held the basin and said, "Come two people into the pig pen with me."
