Chapter 190: Chapter 88: You Call It Normal When Birds Land on Your Hand?

Jiang Feng carried the little lark and walked all the way back to the pasture.

They really didn’t fly away.

There are quite a few birds at the ranch, mostly sparrows, and some larks.

In remote rural areas and mountain villages, sparrows are usually abundant.

Sometimes the Tabby Cat would hunt a few sparrows, so Jiang Feng was a bit worried about it.

The lark perched on Jiang Feng’s finger, as if it had been raised by him since it was a chick, very affectionate.

They also emitted pleasant calls in bursts.

There are seven different species of larks, and the one on the Mongolian Grassland is called the Mongolian Lark, known for nesting on the ground and reproducing quickly.

The two larks chirped happily, lifting Jiang Feng’s spirits.

Netizens accepted this reality but still found it unbelievable.

[Living on the great grassland, the master is almost becoming a child of nature!]

[Do these two larks want a job?]

[They obviously know who the owner of the pasture is!]

[Wow, I’ve seen videos of birds hopping onto people’s hands, and I found it incredible at the time. I never thought it would happen in a live stream!]

[Could it be that the master raised them himself?]

Barrage comments continued pouring in.

Everything was so coincidental.

The two larks lingered in Jiang Feng’s hands for a while, then flapped their wings and flew back to the sky.

Jiang Feng said to everyone:

"Mongolian Larks are abundant on the grassland; they are very common birds."

"Today, these two were a bit bolder and dared to fly onto my flute."

"You don’t need to find this surprising."

"Attracting a few birds is quite normal."

Upon hearing this, netizens responded:

[You call this normal?]

[Maybe it is normal for the master!]

[Isn’t it normal for birds to jump onto hands?]

[Does the master have a misunderstanding about birds?]

Jiang Feng rode back to the ranch and carefully checked the growth of the yew seedlings in the field.

To prevent the seedlings from being blown by the wind and sand from outside, Jiang Feng then arranged for people to add a protective net to the iron fence to block the wind and sand from the desert.

Once the seedlings grow a bit taller, they would no longer fear the wind and sand.

At the same time, Jiang Feng also arranged for employees to fertilize this area with the organic fertilizer he had won in a draw, which was more effective than cow dung.

Jiang Feng stayed in the pasture for a while, closely watching the cows graze.

The grazing process is quite stress-relieving; the cow lowers its head, continuously pulling grass—each bunch follows the last until enough is pulled—and then lifts its head to start chewing.

While chewing, the cow glances around.

One cow saw Jiang Feng watching it and stared back at him for a while.

Cows are so simple and honest.

Jiang Feng watched the cows in the pasture for a while, then headed back to the ranch.

As he returned to the ranch, he noticed a neighbor ranch master driving over.

Although people at Maodeng Ranch aren’t well-acquainted, as neighbors, they occasionally connect and socialize.

This particular ranch master’s ranch is separated from Jiang Feng’s pasture by just a river.

The ranch master is called Mandula, a Mongolian in his forties, quite fat, but not the sturdy kind.

"Master Jiang, long time no see, and congratulations on winning first place in the horse race."

Mandula greeted Jiang Feng with a smile.

As the saying goes, there’s no need to visit without reason, so Mandula must have some business.

Jiang Feng dismounted and responded politely, "Just lucky. Is there something you need?"

Upon hearing this, Mandula sighed, a bit dejected, and said:

"It’s like this, my Maomao, a mastiff, is very ill."

"I called the quarantine station, but they are on inspection in the west and can’t come today."

"They said you’re skilled in this area, so I wondered if you could take a look."

"Please help."

Upon hearing Mandula’s words, Jiang Feng immediately agreed:

"No problem, I’m free right now, let’s go, I’ll head over immediately."

Jiang Feng has vet skills and is more than happy to help treat some animals.

Thus, Jiang Feng got into Mandula’s car and went straight to the neighboring ranch.

On the way, Jiang Feng talked to Mandula about the live stream, and Mandula said it was fine, broadcast as you wish.

Before long, the two arrived at Mandula’s ranch.

A large Mongolian Mastiff lay on the ground, looking quite depressed.

Netizens were abuzz with discussions.

[That Mongolian Mastiff looks a bit pitiful.]

[Sick animals are all quite pitiful!]

Jiang Feng approached the Mongolian Mastiff, and the big guy stayed obediently still.

"Mandula, how’s its appetite, and what about its stool?" Jiang Feng asked.

"It’s eating fine, not having diarrhea, but keeps scratching its belly till it bleeds," Mandula replied.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng nodded.

Dogs are most prone to stomach and intestinal issues, but eating and not having diarrhea indicates it’s not the stomach.

Jiang Feng patted the big Mongolian Mastiff and had it lie down.

Then, Jiang Feng looked at the Mastiff’s abdomen.

At this moment, there were several bloody holes on the dog’s abdomen, which looked somewhat frightening.

Netizens felt goosebumps when they saw those bloody holes.

However, people are curious creatures; sometimes something looks gross, but they just like to look.

Like squeezing pus out of pimples, it’s both gross and satisfying.

With his specialized skills, Jiang Feng instantly identified the problem.

"It’s a parasitic infection, and we need to quickly get the worms out."

"These parasites live in the skin, it’s quite serious."

Jiang Feng spoke up.

"Parasites? Are there parasites in the body?"

Mandula Map asked worriedly.

"Don’t worry, once they’re removed, it’ll be fine."

"These parasites are called the human skin fly larvae. They lay eggs on the skin of pigs, dogs, cattle, and sheep. The eggs hatch with the host’s body temperature and burrow into the skin, consuming the connective tissue beneath."

"And these parasites can’t be squeezed out. They have rows of barbs that hook tightly onto the skin."

"If you try to squeeze them out forcibly, it might crush them, infect the wound, or cause considerable bleeding."

"These things are pretty gross."

Jiang Feng said, slightly relaxed.

Upon hearing his words, the online viewers frowned.

[Such disgusting parasites, actually living in animal skin!]

[Is it really that terrifying?]

[Nature is real and cruel, wild animals are prone to diseases!]

[If they can’t be squeezed out, how do we get them out?]

Mandula Map also asked Jiang Feng:

"How do we deal with these?"

Jiang Feng replied, "It’s simple, these parasites need oxygen, so the holes in the skin connect to the outside."

"Find something to block the hole, and they’ll come out."

"Do you have Vaseline and tweezers, I need them."

Hearing this, Mandula Map immediately went with family members to find Vaseline and tweezers and soon handed them to Jiang Feng.

Vaseline is just a type of oil for face and hand care. Jiang Feng used his hand to apply it on the blood holes on the dog’s belly.

The Mongolian Mastiff seemed to sense something moving and whimpered twice.

Jiang Feng comforted it, "It’s okay, don’t worry."

Mandula Map also comforted from the side.

Viewers watched the blood holes on the dog’s belly.

Just then, a brown-yellow parasite popped its head out of the hole, pushing away the Vaseline and trying to breathe.

Jiang Feng quickly grabbed the parasite’s head with tweezers and directly pulled it out, tossing it onto the ground.

On the ground was a four-centimeter long brown-yellow thin parasite, constantly wriggling, looking quite disgusting.

Viewers felt their scalp tingle.

[Whoa! What a disgusting bug, really terrifying!]

[I got goosebumps all over!]

[How can there be such disgusting creatures!]

[Can’t deny, it’s quite satisfying to see them removed, let’s get more parasites out!]

Mandula Map also felt disgusted upon seeing the parasite, and he walked over fiercely, stomping the parasite into the ground, killing it with force.

Then Jiang Feng repeated the process.

He applied Vaseline on the blood holes on the dog’s belly and waited for the parasites to appear.

As soon as they showed up, Jiang Feng pulled the parasites out from the blood hole.

The Mongolian Mastiff whimpered softly.

It knew Jiang Feng was rescuing it, so though it felt some pain, it did not resist much.

Though the scene was somewhat grotesque, everyone felt a sense of relief seeing it.

Especially during the parasite removal, there was satisfaction throughout.

In this manner, Jiang Feng removed all the parasites one by one.

Only after finishing did he disinfect the dog’s belly.

Once the parasites were removed, the dog was no longer in danger.

The Mongolian Mastiff’s energy improved a lot, barking happily at Jiang Feng.

Mandula Map felt overflowing gratitude seeing this scene.

He laughed heartily:

"Master Jiang, thank you, sincerely thank you."

"Tonight I’ve prepared stuffed belly meat, it’s freshly made. You must stay and have a meal."

Jiang Feng nodded and didn’t decline.

Over here, people don’t really practice the act of declining; Mongolians prefer straightforwardness, so if they invite you to a meal, you just eat, and they are happy.

Using this opportunity, Jiang Feng introduced to the live stream viewers:

"The human skin fly bites humans and livestock, lays eggs under the skin, and then crawls out after development."

"But there’s no need to worry excessively, as long as you maintain cleanliness, it’s unlikely to be parasitized. Cases in humans are quite rare."

"It’s a rare parasitic disease."

"Such occurrences are possible due to the complex grassland environment."

Upon hearing this, viewers responded:

[These parasites are truly disgusting, the harm is considerable!]

[Such skill from the master, he knows all this!]

[As the Grassland King, curing a disease isn’t unusual!]

By this time, the Mongolian Mastiff Maomao had mostly recovered, standing up and wagging its tail, cuddling up to Jiang Feng.

Mandula Map laughed and said:

"Maomao really likes you."

Jiang Feng nodded, he also had Dog Affinity, so naturally, dogs liked him.

Then Jiang Feng addressed the viewers in the live stream:

"That’s it for today’s stream, time to eat."

"See you tomorrow!"

After speaking, Jiang Feng closed the live stream.

Mandula Map invited Jiang Feng to the dining hall, handed him a small knife, and on the table was a large bowl of stuffed belly meat.

In front of Jiang Feng was a plate of chive flower sauce.

The people here enjoy eating stuffed belly meat this way.

Use the knife to cut the meat in half, dip them in the chive flower sauce, and then savor them.

The meat’s freshness combined with the chive flower’s fragrance was incredibly delightful.
