Zhou Nian, whose shirt had been pulled up, was displayed before everyone.
Although his skin wasn't great and there were some dark marks on it,
there was definitely no plum blossom-like mark, so how could it be called syphilis without that?
"Dr. Zhang, Uncle Nongtian really doesn't have plum blossom marks. Did you make a mistake?"
Zhao Guixiang, Zhou River Water's daughter-in-law, was also beside them.
At this moment, she nodded while eating her meal.
It's already six-thirty.
In the village, some families who eat earlier were already having their dinner.
She was just here to call her father-in-law back for dinner.
Who could have thought she would witness such a scene?
"I also hope I'm mistaken, but everyone needs to know that not all syphilis show obvious skin signs. There's a type called latent syphilis, which is common among middle-aged and older people and typically doesn't manifest, yet this latent syphilis can quietly develop into late-stage syphilis, eventually leading to delusions or mental health issues."
Actually, everyone's reaction was the same as his initial one.
Because it was almost common knowledge for syphilis to manifest as a skin disease.
But everyone had forgotten that syphilis could be latent, and this type was often the most overlooked.
"This..."
The crowd began to waver after hearing the explanation.
"Let me search on my phone... Ah! There really is latent syphilis without symptoms! It's pretty much what Dr. Zhang said!!"
Zhao Guixiang quickly searched on her phone and exclaimed in shock.
"Ah!"
The crowd was taken aback.
"Is this really syphilis!!?"
Zhou River Water, who had just touched Zhou Nian, instinctively withdrew his rough hands a little.
His lips trembled slightly.
"There most likely is, but whether this Uncle Zhou Nian has syphilis needs to be confirmed by a hospital examination. You can confirm with the final results, so Uncle Zhou, if possible, send him to the hospital immediately, and if anyone has been involved in such activities, it is advisable to get examined too. The doctor will advise on further actions."
Zhang Lingchuan said.
Those who had close contact should definitely get checked.
But once the examination results come out, confirming it's late-stage, the doctor will handle it.
There is no need to mention more now.
"Got it! I'll arrange to go to the hospital immediately! Thank you, Dr. Zhang!!"
Zhou Datian said excitedly.
After a while, a van came over.
Then Zhou Nian was brought onto the vehicle, rushing to the hospital.
After all, if it's really late-stage syphilis, it's a matter of life and death, not to mention it's contagious. Early detection leads to peace of mind!!
"Don't thank me yet, wait for the examination results first. It's getting late, we should head back too."
Zhang Lingchuan waved his hand.
It was already half-past six.
It would take them about an hour to leave here, and they might only eat a warm meal around eight.
"Teacher Zhang, you're impressive!!"
As the crowd slowly dispersed.
Zhang Lingchuan walked towards the village entrance with Chen Qian and the others.
Chen Qian and two volunteers gave him a thumbs up, their eyes gleaming like little and old fans.
"Come on, what's impressive, a regular veterinarian live stream got turned into this, making some teachers work overtime."
Zhang Lingchuan rubbed his forehead.
He felt quite apologetic.
Especially since he just learned that Chen Qian was a pregnant woman.
"We don't mind, it was actually pretty interesting to watch today's stream, really, besides Teacher Zhang, look, the viewers are enthusiastic too, some are asking if you're still single, even hoping you don't end the stream too soon and chat with them."
Chen Qian pointed at the screen and laughed.
"Dr. Zhang is awesome!!"
"Curious, how did Dr. Zhang recognize it could be syphilis?"
"I'm more curious how someone could deduce he's single and then assume adultery, it's surreal!"
"If I hadn't watched the whole way, I would really think it's all a setup, and if the results show syphilis, it's sensational, because this thing is contagious!"
"To be frank, I think there's a high chance, anyway today's stream was unforgettable, Dr. Zhang's identity as an old Chinese doctor won't stand, sigh, brothers I'm finally able to stand after being crouched for so long!"
"Dr. Zhang! Dr. Zhang! I'm studying in Chun City, half a fellow student! I'm also a southern girl, I've sent you a private message, remember to add me on WeChat!"
"I sent one too! Looking forward to the next stream!!"
"Why don't you keep streaming, Dr. Zhang, just chat with us~"
...
[Dr. Zhang's daily livestream viewership: 2995 people.]
[Veterinarian Daily Livestream Contest Popularity Rank No. 45.]
Livestream room.
The viewers almost hit three thousand.
Various comments flowed.
Stuff about surrealism.
Discussions on the setup.
Messages from fellow students.
Requests not to end the stream, even just chatting would be nice.
"Dear friends, my apologies, it's quite late now, this stream is definitely ending here. Two unrelated veterinarian interludes were made, so please rest assured, the next stream won't have any, and thank you all for your sup..."
He's just a veterinarian.
Yet they always bring him to diagnose things.
It's really baffling!!
However, with this experience, it definitely won't happen again next time.
"Dad, Dad—where are you going!! Aren't you eating?!!!"
Before Zhang Lingchuan finished speaking.
A motorcycle whizzed past.
Behind it was the familiar woman who seemed to be Zhao Guixiang searching on the phone earlier.
"Wasn't that just Grandpa Zhou River Water?"
Two volunteers curiously asked.
"It's the grandpa questioning Dr. Zhang, along with his daughter-in-law, but what are they doing..."
Chen Qian nodded, puzzled about what exactly was going on.
As for Zhang Lingchuan, he just shook his head.
What else could they be doing?
Livestream room.
"Actually we enjoyed those interludes."
"Yes, yes, Dr. Zhang continue next time, we love watching."
"Oh, someone just went by, wasn't it Grandpa Zhou River Water?"
"Haha—it's the grandpa and his daughter-in-law, driving that fast must be off to test for syphilis!"
"I was wondering why the grandpa was so agitated, laughing, turns out he had a stake in this!"
"What you said reminded me, just now this Grandpa Zhou River Water definitely lunged back a few steps upon hearing syphilis."
"Stop shouting, your father-in-law is off to the hospital for a syphilis test! He definitely won't get dinner."
"They seem so close, they might both be involved like Zhou Nian suspected."
"Hiss—so surreal, isn't everything ruined?!"
...
Everyone obviously saw Grandpa Zhou River Water driving away, with the daughter-in-law shouting behind.
And amid the lively crowd, Zhang Lingchuan ended the stream.
The small Sanshui Village, on this night, felt like a deep-water bomb had been dropped.
It exploded thoroughly.
Meanwhile, everyone was anxiously awaiting the syphilis test results.
Especially when learning indirect contact in daily life.
Such as touching infected clothing or bedding, towels and other items could also spread the infection.
Some people directly started burning incense.
Praying it won't be syphilis.
Otherwise, it's disastrous!!
The whole village would erupt!!
