He drank the tea in the cup . The scent lingered in his mouth and teeth . "Good tea!" he sighed .
The two left the clinic and went to Xishan Hill .
"Since what happened last time, the villagers must be worried," Professor Wu asked .
"Yes, many people have are wanting to move out," Wang Yao said .
"This mountain village is very good," Professor Wu said . "It is very peaceful . Since I came and stayed for a while, my heart has been quiet . What about you?"
"I'll naturally stay here," Wang Yao said .
The two arrived at the first pit, where they had visited last time . There were several pits inside, all of which were dug by Wang Yao . "Let's go down to see it . "
They went into the pit . In it, they saw the mice hole and dead mice inside .
"What is this?" Professor Wu asked .
"I put some rat poison down . It looks like it worked," Wang Yao said .
Professor Wu knew how troubling mice could be . They had a strong reproductive ability and survivability, as well as excellent mobility . They could be stalking all over the mountain village . If the mice carried the terrible bacteria around, it would be an extremely terrible thing .
The two then went other places and finally came to the broken, charred rock .
"I understand microorganisms, but I really do not understand insects!" Professor Wu knelt down and looked at it carefully . He took several photos . "He should be interested . "
They wandered around carefully . After taking more photos, they went down the mountain .

"Professor Wu, are you very busy?" Wang Yao asked .
"It's very busy recently," Professor Wu said .
"What about staying for lunch?" Wang Yao asked .
"Good," Professor Wu said .
The ate at the restaurant in the village . In the past, guests came in like gathering clouds, resulting in even an idle table being unavailable . Now, it was completely empty without one guest .
"Hey, Dr . Wang, come in, please come in!" Seeing a guest coming, the manager almost ran out to welcome them .
"What's wrong here?" Wang Yao asked . "There should be a lot of people on a weekday!"
"Hey, it's all due to that sickness," the manager said . "It's said that the infectious diseases happened in your village and a dozen of people have died . Since my restaurant is so close, who dares to come here to have meal? There have only been two groups of guest in the past four days . "
Wang Yao felt bad for the manager . If things stayed this way, it was likely the restaurant would have to close .
"Can we get a few side dishes with a jug of wine?" he asked .
"Yes, wait a moment," the manager said .
Since they were the only guests in the restaurant, the dishes were served quickly . All of them were delicacies from land and river .
"Professor Wu, though the restaurant is small, the food tastes good," Wang Yao said .
Originally, Wang Yao wanted to invite his driver and assistant to join them . He was rejected by the assistant, who felt that his teacher must have something to talk about with the guy who looked so young .

"Well, it's really good . " Professor Wu took a taste using chopsticks, "Not bad . "
"Would you like a drink?" Wang Yao asked .
"OK,"
The two ate, drank, and chatted happily .
"Do you ever think about moving somewhere else?" Professor Wu asked after three rounds of wine . They had almost finished the meal .
"I like this kind of life . A place like Jing is not suitable for me . " Wang Yao smiled .
Although it was prosperous, it was too complicated . Plus, the air was not good . In fact, many people who worked and lived in Jing said they often feel breathless . That was not only because of air pollution . It was also because of the great pressure of life, especially considering that a house could cost a few million . Living in first-tier cities like Jing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, people in the ordinary working class were under great pressure .
"Given the knowledge you have, based on my conservative estimates, you could easily be equal to a lecturer in a university of relevant major," Professor Wu said . "I… Forget it . " He smiled and waved his hand .
If Wang Yao was willing to teach, some people would take the initiative to come to school . Not to mention others far away, many people who had recently met him wanted to learn his medical and kung fu skills .
After drinking wine, Professor Wu's face was slightly red . He rarely drank with others in his daily life . When lunch was finished, he left with the carefully sealed box Wang Yao had given him .
"Safe journey," Wang Yao said .
"Thank you, remember to tell me if you come to Jing," Professor Wu said .
Wang Yao did not forget to advise the professor's assistant . "If Professor Wu feels any uncomfort, please tell me . "

On this trip to Xishan, they went up the mountain without any protection . Under such circumstances, he naturally had no problem . But, it wouldn't necessarily be the same for Professor Wu . He might be infected .
"OK, sure," the assistant said .
He had followed Professor Wu for a while and knew the man's character . He rarely drank . If he did, it was usually not very much . Now, he had drank more than a little . Generally, he only drank this way with people with whom he was familiar .
After sending them off, Wang Yao returned to the clinic . That afternoon, a man in his 40s came in . He was thin and had a pale face and weak voice .
"Hello, Dr . Wang, martial law here can really be unsettling," the man said . He had been there twice . Every time he came, he had encountered the martial law .
"Sorry, where are you not feeling well?" Wang Yao asked .
"I don't want to eat . I feel sick when I eat a little," the man said .
"Is it you don't want to eat anything or is it just some kinds of foods you don't want to eat?" Wang Yao asked .
"I don't want to eat anything," the man said .
"Come on, I will give you a check," Wang Yao said .
Looking at his complexion, he could tell there was a deficiency of Qi and blood, which led to lack of vigor . The man gave off no peculiar odor . Only his breath was a slight hot .
After feeling his pulse, Wang Yao was slightly surprised . "Your body is still relatively healthy . "
As for the pulse, there was no other big problem except for the weak constitution and the lack of blood and Qi .
"Is it? But, why don't I want to eat?" the man asked .
"That would be anorexia," Wang Yao said . "When did you have feeling?"
"Well, hey, a month ago," the man said .
"Is there anything that may have triggered this disease?" Wang Yao asked .
"Oh, that's it . It was about a month ago," the man said . "My wife had just steamed some buns . When I was eating, I ate a hair from the bun . I felt very disgusted at that time . I almost threw it up .
"After a few days, my wife made meatballs . When I ate them, I ate my hair . Then, I vomited . I haven't eaten for three days since then because I felt sick when I ate . I felt a little better after a dozen days . I then went out to drink . I ate a large intestine of pork . It was like I smelling pig manure, so I vomited . "
The man's face suddenly changed . It seemed he was going to vomit .
This was Wang Yao's first time dealing with this type of illness, which was actually a mental illness . "What do you do when you are hungry?"
"Although I am hungry, I just don't want to eat . I just force myself to eat something every day," the man said . "But, it must be what I like in my daily life . "
"That is really troublesome," Wang Yao whispered to himself .
For the time being, he couldn't think of a very suitable solution .
"Why don't you leave your contact information and I'll call you if I think of the appropriate treatment . Of course, I suggest you go to a larger hospital . Maybe they have some treatments," Wang Yao said .
"Oh, OK . " The man left him the phone number and left .

Patients were sick and did not want to eat anything, so the body became extremely thin . In some extreme cases, they even needed to use injections to help the body operate normally .
