Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Gu Chan ignored it for the moment and began to examine its body carefully.

Just this examination made her stunned!

This old hen not only has shiny fur, but also has a plump body. How could she have any disease?

The most important thing is that it is provided with good food and drink every day by the village chief's family. Whether it is the living environment or nutrition, it is well-equipped, so there is no problem of not being able to lay eggs.

It is normal for an old hen to not lay eggs because of its age, but this old hen is not at the stage where she cannot lay eggs!

"Oh my god! What's going on?"

At the end of the inspection, Gu Chan couldn't help but mutter.

Thinking back to before she traveled through time, when she ran a pet shop, she also encountered this situation. If there was nothing wrong with the body of the animal but it looked listless and had a poor appetite, then it was very likely that there was a psychological problem.

Thinking of this, Gu Chan said tentatively, "Come on, let's chat! I want to know why you are in a bad mood."

[Two-legged beasts! What’s the point of my life? I just eat and sleep, sleep and eat every day. You two-legged beasts worship me like an ancestor. I always feel that something is missing from my life. My life is incomplete!] The old hen was lying on the ground and expressing her feelings.

Gu Chan's eyes widened when she heard this.

Dry!

Could it be that this old hen is suffering from depression?

It is clearly living such a good life every day, with everything provided for it, yet it still has the idea that its life is meaningless. Isn't that the typical symptom of a depressed patient?

Chickens...can also suffer from depression?

Gu Chan quickly asked again, "So, you are not actually sick, but you are in a bad mood because you feel that your life is meaningless?"

[I want to die, I don’t want to lay eggs anymore, and I don’t want to live anymore.] The old hen has nothing to live for.

"Okay, I found the cause of the disease." Gu Chan patted his thigh with a smile on his face.

To cure this old hen, all she needs to do next is to prescribe the right medicine.

He Fengyang's family of five, who were sitting behind Gu Chan, were looking at Gu Chan with confusion.

Just now Gu Chan was talking to the old hen, but to them it just sounded like "cluck, cluck, cluck..."

They couldn't understand anything the old hen was saying.

The village chief's son even looked puzzled and asked, "Dad, what is he doing? Why do I feel like he is talking to that old hen?"

"Yes! You see, every time he says something, the old hen clucks back. I've never seen a veterinarian who treats chickens like this!" The village chief's daughter-in-law also scratched the back of her head and muttered.

He Fengyang frowned, "I don't know how he treats the disease, let's wait and see!"

After saying that, the five of them shut up, quieted down and continued watching.

At this time, Gu Chan had almost finished chatting with the old hen. After confirming its condition, Gu Chan immediately stood up and walked to He Fengyang and said, "Its illness is a bit serious and it has a tendency to commit suicide at any time."

"Ah? Is it so serious?" He Fengyang was surprised.

"This disease is called 'depression'. It is a psychological disease. It is difficult to cure completely. Only external forces can temporarily alleviate the condition."

"Depression? Never heard of it!" He Fengyang was stunned.

His son and daughter-in-law looked at each other in confusion.

Gu Chan said seriously, "It doesn't matter whether you have heard it or not. Now you just need to tell me whether you want to cure it and let it continue to lay eggs for your family in the future."

"Of course I have thought about it. Tell me how to treat it!" He Fengyang urged.

"It's very simple. You go to the county market and buy a rooster to keep it company. Its illness is caused by psychological loneliness. Your family doesn't raise other chickens, so it feels lonely and develops depression." Gu Chan came up with this idea directly.

It is said that love is the cure for all diseases.

Since the old hen feels that her life is incomplete, she will help her find a love relationship, so that her life will be complete, right?

"Goo!"

As expected, just as Gu Chan said this, before He Fengyang agreed, the old hen lying on the ground suddenly made a clucking sound, and then it seemed to get better all of a sudden, and it actually became interested and slowly stood up from the ground.

He Fengyang's family of five were dumbfounded.

The son exclaimed, "Dad, is this rooster so powerful? Just hearing the word rooster, it suddenly became energetic!"

"That person still has to get married and have children! What girl doesn't have romantic thoughts when she grows up?" He Fengyang scolded angrily.

Gu Chan gave a dry laugh when she heard this.

Although He Fengyang's words were unpleasant to hear, they made sense! She was too lazy to refute them.

He Fengyang told his son, "Okay, just listen to him for now. Go to the market right now and buy a rooster. We'll raise two chickens in the future. When they lay more eggs, we can also raise chicks. That's pretty good."

"Okay, Dad. I'll go right away." The son quickly agreed, got up and ran into the house to get the silver, then he put on a basket and hurried out of the house to rush to the market to buy a rooster.

He Fengyang looked at Gu Chan, "You go back first. When you buy the rooster, if it really gets better as you said and can continue to lay eggs for my family, I will give you five taels of silver."

"Don't worry, as long as you buy the rooster, I guarantee that its illness will be relieved soon, but I can't guarantee that it can recover." Gu Chan patted his chest and promised.

After saying that, she turned around and left.

The village chief's daughter-in-law suddenly stopped her and said, "Wait a minute."

"What?" Gu Chan turned around.

"Since you are really a veterinary doctor, why don't you go to the county to use your skills, but stay in such a poor little mountain village?" asked the village chief's daughter-in-law.

Gu Chan didn't answer and just walked away.

All the way back, she was thinking about the question asked to her by the village chief's daughter-in-law.

Yes!

According to her current situation, she is not only a physical training practitioner, but also can understand animal language. Although being a veterinarian is a bit confusing, at least she can treat mysterious beasts better than ordinary people.

With all these abilities, she could obviously have better development and earn more money in the county, so what's the point of her staying here?

Thinking about this, Gu Chan couldn't think of an answer for a moment.

It was not until she arrived at the door of her house and saw Zhang Wanshan, who was in the yard, chiseling a piece of wood, trying to carve a wooden trough, that she had the answer in her mind.

"Why do you want to stay here? Because I have relatives here!"

Gu Chan thought to herself, with a happy smile on her face, "Grandpa, I'll help you."

Zhang Wanshan nodded happily.

Gu Chan trotted over and helped her grandfather carve the trough.
