Qiao Xuejun noticed the rumors about mad cow disease.
Mad cow disease is terrible, but nowadays we rarely hear of it happening anywhere.
Mad cow disease first appeared in cattle on British farms. The farms processed the carcasses of cattle and sheep into feed and fed it to live cattle. Cannibalism caused prion infection. People will also mutate after eating infected cattle.
After all, prions can still survive even in 100-degree boiling water and will not be killed.
If someone really picked up a cow infected with prions and brought it home, ordinary kitchen processing would not be able to eliminate the prions, and eating such meat would definitely cause trouble.
Irritability, increased aggressiveness, sensitivity to sound and light, brain lesions... these symptoms of mad cow disease are actually very similar to those of zombies.
"Xiao Tong, will zombies appear at the end of the world in your book?"
System: "There is no mention of zombies in the book. In the currently unlockable parts, there is no mention of the existence of zombies."
The system hesitated as it spoke: "However, not much has been unlocked so far. Maybe there will be some later. Or maybe, it's a very small problem so it's not mentioned in the book... Ah, my information has just been updated. Mutated mad cow disease, it bites people and transmits the virus through blood. It has already broken out."
Qiao Xuejun: "You update this information too slowly."
It's time to practice slingshot and bow and arrow.
Just as Qiao Xuejun was about to continue reading the discussion about mad cow disease, her cell phone rang again. It was old lady Qiao.
What are you calling for again?
"Xuejun, where have you been? Why aren't you home yet? The air conditioner is on all day at home. You're suffering outside in the sun, come home quickly, you're..."
Qiao Xuejun: "If you have to fart, do it now."
The man on the other side was silent for a moment, and did not start to curse at her. Instead, he held his breath and said with a smile: "You knew him when you were a child, the kid from the Zhang family who lived next door to you, do you still remember him?"
"Who is that?"
The other party started to read and reply randomly: "Just remember, their family used to do big business, and moved to Shenzhen. It's hot recently, so they went back to Gongzhou to escape the heat. They said they haven't seen you for a long time and wanted to see you. Why are you still running around outside in such a hot day? Come and thank them."
Qiao Xuejun heard a young man's voice coming from the other end of the phone: "Qiao Yaomei was the prettiest when she was a child. She must be getting prettier now, right?"
Then it was Qiao Yaozu: "Yes, my sister is as beautiful as a flower. Grandma, didn't you take a photo with my sister last time? Take it out and show it to Brother Zhang."
"Look, the photo. Brother Zhang, is my sister prettier than when she was a child?"
Qiao Xuejun:?
What the hell.
Brother Zhang chuckled twice, looking a little vulgar: "Pretty, pretty, so white, and looks as tender as when she was a child. Little sister, you don't have a boyfriend, right?"
Qiao Yaozu: "Of course! Haha, Brother Zhang has a big business in Shenzhen, so please take care of us."
Brother Zhang said, "Okay, okay. You're doing live streaming of agricultural products, right? I just happen to know someone there. By the way, I'm staying in the same house when I come back this time. Does your sister also live in the old house?"
Qiao Yaozu: "Yes, yes, yes. There is no air conditioning in that old house. It's miserable."
Qiao Xuejun: ...
She hung up the phone. Who is it? Just to get close, her neighbor? Her old house is located in a relatively remote place in the town, with few households around. The nearest one is a self-built house about 100 meters away, but it doesn't look much better than Qiao Xuejun's old house. It feels like no one has lived there for a long time.
But it was just as she had guessed before, because it got hot, so many people moved to Gongzhou. Now should not be the time when there are the most people, the longer the high temperature lasts, the more people will run here.
She really needs to practice slingshot or bow and arrow. There's no need to worry about her physical fitness. She's a farmer and has a strong body.
Qiao Xuejun practiced for a while by herself and found that this thing does have a threshold. Her accuracy is not very good, so she needs to practice for a long time to form muscle memory.
Later, when the two old men from the Qiao family called again, Qiao Xuejun didn't answer. Anyway, she had stockpiled everything she needed, so who would go out and deal with idiots?

[The recent outbreak of mad cow disease is suspected to be a new virus! 】
The network has been getting worse recently, and it often disconnects. Qiao Xuejun just connected to the network and saw the public account push. The discussion was about mad cow disease. Qiao Xuejun had heard of this disease. They studied agriculture and also learned a little about livestock breeding. But she didn't know more details, but she looked at the many videos and photos exposed on the Internet and felt that it didn't look like mad cow disease.
The people in the photos showed aggression, hitting others, being irritable, and avoiding the sun, which are indeed possible symptoms of mad cow disease patients.
However, people with mad cow disease basically have uncoordinated limbs and cannot walk steadily.
In the pictures posted online, those who were sick had stiff bodies but had to walk very steadily.
There are also questioning voices in the comment section.
[Mad cow disease, so scary, why do these people have to pick up the carcasses of cows to eat? There is a shortage of supplies now, but it hasn't reached that point yet. ]
[There are many cases of the virus at the farm next to my house. It has been confirmed that the virus is contagious. That place has been quarantined.]
[Is this really mad cow disease? Don’t you think it looks like a zombie? ]
[Zombies? Are you kidding me? There are no zombies in this world.]
[Don't play blind, look at the video, if this isn't a zombie, then what is it? [Video link]]
…
Qiao Xuejun looked serious and clicked on the video.
