TWWMABMTBH Chapter 11

System: Hahahaha! Host, I think the predecessor of your card pool might be a wet market.

Faced with this mockery, Rong Ziyan, a combat non-European, remained calm, his heart completely unmoved.

He carefully read the description of the Frozen Beltfish again, roughly understanding its meaning. He felt it should be a weapon type, but he didn’t know how effective it was.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Rong Ziyan took the beltfish out of the system storage.

Immediately, a faint fishy smell filled the surrounding air, and the palm of Rong Ziyan’s hand holding the Frozen Beltfish instantly felt a bone-chilling coldness, as if his entire arm would be frozen stiff in minutes, which was also very much in line with the item’s description.

So, now it was time to test its specific effect. Rong Ziyan, overcoming the constant coldness coming from his palm, held the Frozen Beltfish and made a gesture in the air towards the duck. The duck, which had been very arrogant, instantly shut its mouth and kept quiet.

Duck: Dad, I was wrong.

The immediate effect was also very impressive. Unfortunately, it was a case of “kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred.” Now, our little Dad Rong, no, Doctor Rong’s left hand was already frozen bright red.

Rong Ziyan: It seems it’s better to use this secret weapon less often in the future.

System: …Well, I can reaffirm that the Heavenly Path must have taken fake medicine.

However, no matter what, the second half of the journey finally became quiet, which was at least one good thing.

But the county town was already in chaos.

The reason why the village chief had previously pressured people to go to the Women’s Federation was not to take them there for another trial, but to find someone to help!

Don’t look at the village chief’s seemingly simple and honest appearance, like a steady old cadre. He was, after all, someone who could convince the entire village, and had guarded the village for several years, so he must have some tricks up his sleeve.

When that hooligan Li Tiezhu said that the ducks were from the neighboring village, his little abacus started working. He thought, on the surface, this was just a small squabble between two veterinarians, but in reality, he also knew Rong Ziyan’s background like the back of his hand.

There was no such thing as a free lunch, why would a top student like Rong Ziyan be demoted to a small village? Although the village chief was not in the veterinary system, he could roughly guess that the reason Rong Ziyan was assigned here was most likely because someone was squeezing him out.

But after watching him for so long, Rong Ziyan was indeed a good person. His medical skills were good, his character was upright, and he was truly dedicated to the villagers, which made him want to protect him a bit.

It wasn’t that he was snobbish, placing special importance on Rong Ziyan’s knowledge, but purely out of consideration for the entire village.

After all, if another veterinarian were to come, they might not have Rong Ziyan’s good education, and they might not be as down-to-earth and diligent as Rong Ziyan. For these two reasons alone, the village chief wanted to help Rong Ziyan.

And this time, Li Tiezhu’s framing hit the village chief’s most unbearable point.

It wasn’t easy for the villagers to earn their living. They relied on the crops in the fields and the livestock in their yards for the whole year. Therefore, he didn’t care what kind of divine beings were fighting above, no one could touch those vital things for the villagers.

Crossing the line meant getting a beating! A powerful dragon can’t suppress a local snake.

Therefore, this time, the village chief was determined to help Rong Ziyan establish his authority in the surrounding villages. He had to tell these people that as long as Rong Ziyan was at the village animal husbandry station, no one could even think about extending their evil intentions into the village.

So, after leaving the animal husbandry station, the village chief directly called on the Women’s Federation to go to the county to cry.

Logically speaking, he should have gone himself, but in terms of acting aggrieved, a grown man, no matter how pitiful he cried, would have a limited effect. It was better to call on the women from the Women’s Federation.

After all, the women were very good at crying and complaining.

Right now, the county magistrate’s secretary’s office was crowded with people from the village coming to complain.

Two aunts from the Women’s Federation, with red eyes, looked at the young county magistrate’s secretary with aggrieved expressions.

Although they were crying pitifully, their tongues were also very sharp, and they explained the matter clearly in a few words.

“Comrade leader, our little Doctor Rong is young and has a simple personality. He focuses on scientific research and doesn’t know about these schemes and deceptions. Even after being bullied like this, he still thinks about treating the ducks, to avoid harming the village.”

“Yes! For the sake of the villagers, little Doctor Rong goes to people’s homes to treat the difficult births of sows even at three or four in the morning after someone knocks on the door.”

“Ah, it’s our fault for being too honest and not daring to handle things ourselves. Now we’ve brought him here, waiting for the country and the organization to make the decision for us!”

One sentence after another, they put the hat of praise firmly on his head. The county magistrate’s secretary hadn’t had time to interrogate Li Tiezhu and Wang Dazhuang, and she was already leaning towards Rong Ziyan’s side.

She felt that Wang Dazhuang from Xiaowang Village was just stupid and bad, not only framing Rong Ziyan, but also wanting to poison the village’s chickens, ducks, and geese.

“No, it’s not like that!” Li Tiezhu and Wang Dazhuang tried their best to explain.

“Even if it’s duck plague, there has to be evidence, at least there has to be test results! You can’t just convict us with one phone call!”

“What? You still want to deny it? Our little Doctor Rong is a top student! He was a top scorer in his college entrance exam, how could he talk nonsense!?” The two aunts were extremely powerful, not giving them a chance to speak.

The county magistrate’s secretary was also curious, “What top scorer?”

“Ah! Little Doctor Rong was the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Yanjing that year.”

“So impressive!” The county magistrate’s secretary nodded, and her liking for Rong Ziyan increased again.

What exactly was going on? Did being a top student allow you to do whatever you wanted? Wang Dazhuang was almost in tears. He could only resist stubbornly with Li Tiezhu, refusing to admit anything.

This made things even more chaotic.

Just as the county magistrate’s secretary was feeling overwhelmed, the office door was knocked open, and a young man walked in from the outside.

He was really handsome, making people’s eyes light up. But his attire was a bit hard to describe. His left hand was holding a half-dead duck, and his right hand seemed to be holding a long silver whip?

The village chief was overjoyed, “Little Doctor Rong, you’ve come! We were just talking about you!”

Rong Ziyan smiled. Before he could say anything, the Frozen Beltfish in his right hand faintly revealed a small section of its shiny fish tail toward Wang Dazhuang and the others.

[Frozen Beltfish Love Education Activated] The system issued a rather cheesy and embarrassing prompt sound. At the same time, Wang Dazhuang and the hooligan “plunked” and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Rong Ziyan.

Hooligan & Wang Dazhuang: Dad! Dad, we were wrong, Dad.

The village chief was standing next to them and was directly startled. He wondered what was wrong with these two? They weren’t being tortured.

Then, looking at the duck in Rong Ziyan’s hand, he understood. These two wouldn’t shed tears until they saw the coffin. Once they saw the evidence, they could only do this.

Fortunately, everyone else thought the same as the village chief, not pursuing it too much. Rong Ziyan also sighed in relief in his heart.

This scene had once again proven the effect of the Frozen Beltfish. It could only be said that it was worthy of being an R-level item. Although its appearance was a bit ridiculous, the effect was indeed miraculous. It could be used properly in the future.

The matter of the Rich Second Generation framing Rong Ziyan had not yet been exposed. If there was no breakthrough, he could try the effect of this Frozen Beltfish.

While thinking, Rong Ziyan unobtrusively put the Frozen Beltfish away. At the same time, he put down the duck and handed the report to the county magistrate’s secretary.

—————

Heavenly Path items never exaggerated or fabricated. Li Tiezhu and Wang Dazhuang finally confessed.

At the same time, they also revealed a small detail. Wang Dazhuang had been instigated at the dinner table to deal with Rong Ziyan.

“What do you mean?” The village chief’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He had guessed that there was something wrong, and now it seemed that was indeed the case. But it was a little different from his previous guess. It was not Rong Ziyan’s enemy, but his terrible relatives.

“Sigh,” Wang Dazhuang was very regretful in his heart!

“Regarding the duck tuberculosis incident last time, I was scolded by our village chief and was busy for several days. Later, when I accompanied my wife back to her parents’ house, at the dinner table, my brother-in-law instigated me, and I got carried away… and did it.”

Now that things had come to this, he had nothing to hide, and simply revealed everything.

The village chief didn’t understand, “Why would your brother-in-law instigate you?”

Wang Dazhuang glanced at Rong Ziyan, “My brother-in-law is his cousin.”

“I understand.” Hearing the word “cousin,” Rong Ziyan understood everything and actively explained to the village chief, “I apologize, this is purely a personal grievance, and it has implicated the villagers.”

This brother-in-law of Wang Dazhuang, who was Rong Ziyan’s cousin, was the one who had taken over the house when Rong Ziyan was young and his parents had passed away early. He had chased him out of the house on New Year’s Eve.

Rong Ziyan’s parents had left early, and the Rong family hadn’t split up when they passed away. Rong Ziyan’s grandparents were already old and confused, and completely unable to take care of this grandson, so Rong Ziyan’s two uncles and aunts started plotting.

Rong Ziyan was not easy to deal with either, and things got very ugly. Later, on New Year’s Eve, they made a scene at the village committee and directly divided the family. It was said that he left with his share of the family property, but it was actually no different from leaving with nothing.

Rong Ziyan was young at that time, just twelve years old. He had a very hard time for the first two years, but later things got a little better when he went to the county junior high school.

“At that time, my two uncles said I was stupid, that I was not good enough at studying, and that I should drop out of school to help with farming. My two cousins were the ones who had potential. I refused, I had to study, and the family said they couldn’t afford to support three children, so in the end, I broke off from them.”

“As a result, I was admitted to college later, while my two cousins didn’t even pass high school. The villagers would compare us. My two uncles lost face, and those two cousins must have been displeased with me. It’s not surprising.”

After all that commotion, it turned out to be a family matter. The village chief breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he felt very sympathetic towards Rong Ziyan. As for the aunts from the Women’s Federation who had come along, they wished they could hug him.

Their little Doctor Rong at the village animal husbandry station was such a good person. He was good-looking, spoke politely, and was a top student. Just a few days ago, he had saved all the ducks in the village.

The whole Rong family must have been blind to bully him like that.

It was so pitiful. He lost his parents at the age of twelve and had to work odd jobs to make tuition while studying and supporting himself. They didn’t know how much hardship he had endured along the way.

The system also felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Rong Ziyan’s story: Host, if you are sad, just tell me. My strong arms are here for you to lean on!

Rong Ziyan was silent for a moment: Do you systems even have a physical form?

System: No, I’m in shut down mode. Rong Ziyan, you dog-like straight man, I’m going to break up with you for five minutes.

Rong Ziyan smiled and didn’t try to persuade it. Rong Ziyan was different from others. He really didn’t think he had suffered much.

Speaking of his parents dying early, they indeed hadn’t left any property or compensation, but at least they hadn’t left any debts. His relatives were terrible, but Rong Ziyan had left home early and hadn’t suffered any hardship. As for the hard work of growing up alone and supporting himself, in Rong Ziyan’s view, being able to have the opportunity to work hard was already a kind of luck. After all, how many people who couldn’t survive didn’t even have the opportunity to work hard?

Moreover, to take a step back, in the past twenty years, Rong Ziyan had a harmonious family and kind parents when he had a family. When he didn’t have a family, he didn’t end up on the streets, without clothes or food.

Although he was unlucky, he was healthy, didn’t have any major illnesses, and had grown up well. And now he had the system. He might not be able to compare to those favored by heaven, but compared to most people, Rong Ziyan was also lucky.

He never thought that suffering was something to be pitied for. In Rong Ziyan’s view, only not being able to live well was truly pitiable.

And this was the education that Rong Ziyan’s parents had given him since he was young. Rong Ziyan had always adhered to it.

However, even so, Rong Ziyan didn’t plan to let go of those who had stirred up trouble. If people didn’t offend him, he wouldn’t offend them. But if they came looking for trouble, there was no need to be concerned about keeping face. However, there was a priority of urgency, and compared to that, Rong Ziyan had more important things to do first.

The duck that he had analyzed had duck plague.

Duck plague had a rapid onset and was highly contagious, and was one of the most significant diseases that currently threatened the poultry industry.

The key point was that duck plague was a contagious disease that could infect ducks of different varieties and ages. Especially hybrid ducks.

Wang Dazhuang’s family didn’t raise poultry. This duck was also brought from Rong Ziyan’s cousin’s house, and it had contracted duck tuberculosis after being kept with diseased ducks for several days.

The incubation period for duck plague was 3 to 5 days. Based on the timeline, the source was in Rong Ziyan’s original village.

Therefore, the first thing Rong Ziyan did after returning to the village was to contact the village chief of Xiaowang Village and tell him about the duck plague. At the same time, he also called the animal husbandry station in that village and told them about the discovery of duck plague.

Thank you so much! The old veterinarian at that animal husbandry station was also a farmer, so he knew very well what this kind of contagious disease meant.

Although Rong Ziyan was just giving a simple reminder, he was still very grateful and immediately gathered the villagers to tell them about it.

The people in Lujia Village didn’t understand why. They thought the higher-ups had issued some new epidemic prevention instructions, so they were very cooperative. But once they started the check, it didn’t take long to realize that more than half the ducks in the entire village were sick.

Duck plague, if not handled properly, could be fatal! Fortunately, it was discovered early. If it had spread to everyone…the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The old veterinarian wiped the sweat from his forehead and directly gave Rong Ziyan 3,000 gratitude points.

And it wasn’t just the old veterinarian who gave Rong Ziyan gratitude points, but also the major breeders in Lujia Village.

Rong Ziyan’s early warning had prevented them from major losses later. To put it bluntly, if it had fully broken out, they would have lost everything and might have even had to drink pesticides.

After hearing that it was Rong Ziyan who had discovered it, many people in Lujia Village felt the name was familiar. Especially those who had played with Rong Ziyan when they were young. Once they recalled, they suddenly realized, “Holy crap! Isn’t this the top student in the village back then? The one who got first place and was admitted to the county high school.”

They were all their own people!

In Rong Ziyan’s animal husbandry station, the system was dumbfounded. Rong Ziyan had just made a phone call to the Lujia Village animal husbandry station, and soon he had started receiving gold coins?! In just half a day, he had successively received more than 30,000 gold coins.

The key point was that many of them were [Intimacy Value]. And when the Intimacy Value reached a certain level, it would turn into admiration value, and then into love value. Generally speaking, this was for developing female characters to open a harem. But in Rong Ziyan’s case, there were [Uncle Wang from Lujia Village], [Auntie Li from Lujia Village], [Village Flower Mu Tiezhu from Lujia Village], and even cross-species content like [Sick Duck from Lujia Village].

So how did these come about? The system was very frustrated, feeling that it was completely beyond its understanding.

But Rong Ziyan’s mind was clear. He was originally from Lujia Village. Although he had gone to the county town when he was very young, he was still considered someone who had grown up under the villagers’ watch. If it had been another ordinary veterinarian, they would have been grateful, but because it was him, there was an extra layer of intimacy.

Villagers easily formed connections through kinship, they were considering him one of their own!

Just at this time, suddenly, two special system prompts caught Rong Ziyan’s attention.

[Rong Cun’s Frustration Value +1000], [Rong Cun’s Anxiety Value +1000]

The names were a little too familiar.

System:!!! Host, isn’t this the bastard cousin who tried to set you up?

Rong Ziyan: That’s right! So do you think that if he’s so scared, should I go comfort him?
