Pet King

pain.

The whole body is as painful as a fire, and it burns in five.

Especially in the lungs, every breath is like inhaling a lot of hot smoke; every time you cough, Mars will be ejected from the trachea.

The eyelids seemed to swell up, as if the lead was falling, Richard was very difficult to blink, and he could only half-close his eyes and observe the world through a narrow gap.

The sound heard by the ear echoed with slyness. Sometimes it seemed to come from a distant horizon. The blur was unclear. The next moment seemed to snarl in its ear, and the steel needle pierced the mind.

This painful feeling is very familiar. It has been experienced once before, and this time its senses are more acute and even more painful than that.

Its consciousness became very vague, and it seemed to be back in the lab again.

“Irene, please listen to me calmly, it is Aspergillosis, you know how terrible this disease is.”

“My God! Are we going to lose it?”

“No, we won’t lose it, at least not now.”

“What should we do?”

“We have a cure for aspergillosis, but that was designed for large raptors such as the eagle, so we have to explore carefully until we find the right dose. Listen, Irene, I will do my best, then we Pray to God together and don’t take it away!”

……

“Irene, I am sorry, the medication did not work as expected.”

“no no!”

“Please calm down, Irene! We have not reached the moment of despair. As your friend and veterinarian, I recommend a thoracotomy to scrape the mold in the chest.”

“Open the thoracic surgery? What are you kidding! It’s just a pound of birds!”

“Listen, Irene, this is our last resort, you don’t want to lose it, right?”

“…Yes, you are right. Are you going to have surgery? My friend.”

“No, I have contacted you for the best veterinarian in the country. They are all microsurgery experts. They will cure it, I promise!”

……

“Irene, I bring you good news – the operation is very successful!”

“Great! I have been waiting for your message… I…”

“Are you crying? Irene.”

“No, I… didn’t cry. They cleaned up the damn mold, right? It will be alright, right? Please tell me!”

“Yes, Irene, their surgery is very successful, it will soon be back to you – there may be some sequelae, but it will be fine.”

“Thank God!”

……

“Doctor…” Richard muttered.

“Richard, are you awake?”

Gently stroking the back of one hand, warm and powerful, with the alkaline taste characteristic of sterile soft soap.

Dizziness.

It tried to open a heavy eye and carefully identified the person in front of him.

The field of vision was a bit fuzzy at first, and it really thought that she appeared in memory – unfortunately, although the temperament is very similar, it is not. Sun Xiaomeng has the same short hair as her, and a younger face, belonging to the face of the oriental, and the flashing care in her eyes is exactly the same.

Its eyes turned, not as flexible as ever, but still able to recognize the surrounding furnishings – not a laboratory, just a very ordinary living room, located on the second floor of an ordinary pet shop.

Richard didn’t know how long he had slept, and the night was already out of the window. The construction noise downstairs has disappeared, probably not too late, the workers are worried about disturbing the people, and today’s work is over.

“Doctor…” It struggled to stand up, a little embarrassed.

Sun Xiaomeng held it and let it rest most of her weight on her hand. Until then, she was shocked that its weight was so light that it was not even half the weight of the human brain. In such a petite body, it is possible to create wisdom that is comparable to human beings. This is itself a miracle of nature.

Now, the miracle is disappearing, as if nature tried to repair small mistakes in the evolutionary chain.

“Don’t mess, Richard, come and take some medicine.”

Sun Xiaomeng held two capsules and reached it to the beak.

“What is this?” it asked.

“Do you really want to know? Well, I dumped the original medicine in the cold capsule and stuffed it with my own medicine, including nystatin and ciprofloxacin, and a multivitamin. It will be fine.”

The mortality rate of acute fungal disease is very high, because the shortest time from symptom onset to death is only 3 hours. If it happens at night, the owner may not even have time to notice it – even if it is accidentally detected, it is too late to send a doctor. This is the terrible mild mycosis. Where.

Richard was unfortunate and fortunate. It happened that Wang Qian and Li Kun were also in the process of making a call to Zhang Zi An for the first time. Since then, whether it is Wang Qian Li Kun’s repeated errands, Sun Xiaomeng’s decisive decision, or Jin Er’s speeding arrogance, in fact, they are all racing with death, and whoever is dead may still be.

Richard stared at the two capsules, and after a few seconds he opened the cockle and ate it.

“Don’t bite, swallow it all,” Sun Xiaomeng reminded.

Richard did it and swallowed the two capsules.

“Great.” She took a sigh of relief. Richard is so helpful, she is also worried that it will refuse to swallow capsules because of the bird’s instinct.

These tablets were prepared by Sun Xiaomeng using Zhang Zi An’s chopping board and rolling pin to be ground into a powder and then filled into a cold capsule for Richard’s use. If you follow the conventional method of mixing medicine into food, it will be too slow to be effective.

“Come on, drink some water.” She took a porcelain wineglass – which was used by Zhang Zi An’s father at the time of a drink, and a cup of half a bottle of wine.

At this time, the wine glass is not filled with wine, but with a touch of blue clear liquid.

“This is a 0.5% copper sulphate solution, which is toxic, but it can cure your disease. This is called ‘toxic attack’ in China.”

Sun Xiaomeng sees Richard staring at the liquid, thinking that it dares not drink, and explains it to it.

“Doctor, I will drink, but these can’t save me.”

Richard said indifferently, he lowered his head and sucked the copper sulfate solution into the mouth.

It understands that the old nightmare has not been completely eradicated, and it has quietly recovered. The last time, these medicines failed to save it. They had to travel thousands of miles away for microsurgery, and this time they could not save it. It does not consider it necessary to perform microsurgery in this rudimentary pet store.

To its surprise, Sun Xiaomeng even nodded in agreement with it.

“You are right, you can’t save you alone.”

Despite this, her face is still filled with firm confidence. Even the veterinarians with the golden signs on the other side of the ocean have no confidence in her face with aspergillosis. Richard couldn’t help but stunned, even being infected by her strong confidence.

She smiled and held out an arm and motioned it to stand up.

“Come, let’s go and go.”
