In late spring and early summer, even the air is humid.Fortunately, it didn't rain that day, otherwise the wives would hold meat, vegetables, grains and rice in both hands, and I really don't know where to free up their hands to hold umbrellas.

"Xiao Bao Di Niang!"

In the open space where several bicycles were parked outside the supermarket, a fat middle-aged woman greeted a young woman who was pushing a full load of shopping bags into the basket in front of the car with a loud voice.

"Aunt Zhang." The young woman was also easy to get along with, as soon as she heard the greeting, she stopped all movements of her hands and turned to chat with the middle-aged woman.

Aunt Zhang also hung the dishes on her bicycle, while gossiping about Xiaobao's menu.She stretched her head to look at the bicycle basket next to her, and took a quick look at the contents.

"Yo, you bought it too? What kind of disaster prevention suit is that?"

"Well, Xiaobao is clamoring for it." Xiaobao's mother smiled helplessly, "It's a special price anyway..."

"Oh, my girl is too!" Speaking of this incident, Aunt Zhang became furious, "I have been having nightmares for days, saying that I dreamed of an earthquake and cried terribly, and I had to hug her to agree." sleep."

Xiaobao's mother was stunned: "Huh? Xiaobao too! I also have nightmares and dream about earthquakes!"

"No, it's not..." Aunt Zhang's heart trembled, and her voice lowered a lot, "So evil?... No, I have to talk to Dr. Lao about it, maybe it's a child's night terrors." Zuo Yan When we set off, Aunt Zhang stepped on the bicycle and left without saying a word.

Dr. Lao is an old Chinese doctor in the town. He has no academic qualifications, but he has rich experience. He is good at diagnosing diseases and using medicines. Apart from the mayor, he is the most prestigious. If it comes to pathology and health preservation, he is more credible than the mayor.

"Doctor Lao—! Doctor Lao—!" When we arrived at the street where the medical clinic is located, Aunt Zhang shouted loudly before the bicycle was parked: "Is Doctor Lao at home?"

"Grandpa—!" The girl who was doing homework on a small table in the lobby of the medical hall called out tenderly.

"Come here, come here..." Wearing a shabby slanted-front home clothes, Dr. Lao rushed over from the inner room as if holding a bag of Shau Kei herbs on fire.

When he saw Aunt Zhang, Dr. Lao paused, and while he was bending over to put down the medicinal materials, he gave his granddaughter a sneaky look.

"Doctor Lao, listen to me, something serious has happened!"

Silently turning his face to avoid the droplets sprayed by Aunt Zhang, Dr. Lao expressed his concern and prayed in his heart that there would be no such thing as Aunt Zhang’s cousin’s goddaughter’s roommate. The cat in his hometown refused to eat mice, did he have a terminal illness? kind of thing.

Aunt Zhang didn't realize how insincere Dr. Lao's response was, so she blah blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

After finishing speaking, looking at Dr. Lao's face again, Aunt Zhang was startled: "Lao, Doctor Lao, why are you so dark? No, it can't be a big deal, right?" Aunt Zhang felt timid when she felt as if something big was going to happen.Niu Niu is the only daughter in her family. Two adults and four old people love her so much. She is raised like a little princess. If anything happens, she will be so distressed.

.

Dr. Lao frowned tightly. He was really worried. In the past few days, there were a lot of people who came to him to get sleeping pills to treat children with night terrors and nightmares. Almost half of the parents in the town came.In addition to Aunt Zhang, several chatty talkers also mentioned the content of children's nightmares, and they all said that they dreamed of earthquakes.

"Xin'er," comforted Aunt Zhang, and Doctor Lao stopped the granddaughter who was about to sneak out after finishing her homework, "Go and invite the mayor here for grandpa."

He didn't believe it, but he was worried that the child saw something, or that there was something wrong with the food environment in the town, and the child's small body had an adverse reaction first.

The mayor of the town is also a hardworking person. Hearing what Dr. Lao said, he immediately summoned the town cadres and well-informed people from the neighborhood to Dr. Lao's house for an impromptu meeting.

"...In order to attract investment and development, people from the agency came to check the water and soil earlier, and they didn't say there was any problem." The fat health commissioner said dissatisfied.

"That's true, apart from having nightmares, the children don't have any other ailments." Dr. Lao didn't loosen his brows.

Most of the townspeople directly think in the direction of the supernatural, what kind of children have a clean aura, the warnings given by the ancestors, the ghosts and evil spirits, there are all kinds of theories, one set of one set.

The mayor actually didn't quite believe the earthquake warning statement.

"It is said that the precursor of an earthquake is the abnormal movement of animals. How can it be reflected on children? No one has seen frogs migrating or rabbits jumping into rivers..." The mayor speculated: "Could it be that the children are talking about some disaster movies at school? Think about it and dream about it at night.”

As soon as this statement came out, the vast majority of people agreed with it. The mayor's credibility is really not something to brag about.

Seeing that most of the people standing in the courtyard of Dr. Lao's house were nodding their heads, and they seemed to be closing the case, Tu Zi, who was nestled in the second floor room of the opposite B&B and eavesdropping with Lang Ya's ear, was so angry that he took another bite. drumstick.

"All the animals are treated as game by you, so where did you get the vision!" He scolded angrily.

Lang Ya was a little curious: "In your time and space, are the animals and the environment on the outskirts of City A well protected?" In recent years, for development, the Rehabilitation Party has vigorously developed many villages and towns, and some of them have not been handled well. Honestly, the original residents were displaced, and trees were cut down before building houses, all in all a mess.

"...That's not true." Tu Zi thought for a while, and replied: "Because there are rare Aegis stone mines nearby—as I mentioned, those on the Xiumei Mountain—and they have moved away for mining. There are quite a few animals. It’s just that I didn’t expect that the wild animals in the whole town can be almost wiped out by hunting game alone.”

"That's it." Lang Ya glanced at Dr. Lao's house: "...they are going to end the meeting."

Tu Zi hurriedly probed his head to look, and fell down on the window sill dejectedly after seeing it: "Forget it, it's almost the same after running a few villages and towns... Fortunately, this trip happened to happen that the manager of the supermarket was worrying about how to clear out the slow-moving cans , it is convenient for us to smuggle the idea of ​​disaster prevention suits into his head, and finally indirectly prepare the townspeople."

Lang Ya sighed: "If I knew it, I wouldn't let those children have nightmares. Some of them were hinted at once by us, and they couldn't sleep well for a few days, and they even became neurotic during the day..."

Tu Zi didn't care much about this: "How could I use so much force? Those who have been restless for several days are about to awaken as sentries or guides.

"So much?" Lang Ya was shocked.

"Not many, right? It's only a few, and it's only about 10%." Enough lying down, Tu Zi got up and continued to eat chicken, "Whistle is an evolutionary gene, and the number of people will increase, especially in the 'initial period'." Gate'—the big pit in Panlong Valley—near. In most areas of our side, the sentinel birth rate accounts for about 15-18% of the total number of births, and City A has [-]%.”

"A lot..." Lang Ya half opened his mouth in surprise.

He especially likes to hear what Tu Zi said about his "hometown". Listening to it makes him feel that the future is still full of hope.

Just about to ask a few more questions, Lang Ya suddenly froze.

A blood-curdling electric current slid from the back of his neck to his tailbone, almost making him jump from place to place.

"...Quick," sweating all over his head for a second, Lang Ya picked up the backpacks of the two of them with one hand, and pulled Tu Zi who was eating chicken wings with the other: "Run!"
