Mysterious Dwarf Village in China: A fairy tale world hidden in real-life forests and mountains!
Hidden deep in a valley in southwest China, there is a special village that seems to exist only in fairy tales - the "dwarf village".
Sizhong County in Neijiang City (Sichuan Province, Southwest China), is famous for its picturesque scenery, ancient relics and wonderful people. However, hidden deep in the Tu Trung valley, there is a special village that seems to only exist in fairy tales - the "dwarf village" .
This special village is called Duong Minh Tu . Adults here only have an average height of 80 - 120cm. The cause of this strange phenomenon has yet to be determined.
According to Sohu, people passed word of mouth that in the 1930s, this village hidden in the valley was suddenly swept by a storm during the night. The villagers then suffered from bone and joint pain, abnormal leg muscle pain, and became lame.
Children who are in the development stage have more obvious signs of physical changes, especially children 3 - 4 years old. The skull and joints in the body become thicker and stronger but stop growing from there.
The villagers at that time thought it was an infectious disease but could not find the source of the pathogen, how it was transmitted, nor find an effective treatment. They watched helplessly as "dwarfism" spread and affected the entire village.
In the modern medical era, this condition was called "dwarfism". People with this disease are found in many parts of the world, but they are not as concentrated as Duong Minh Tu village.
Some X-ray results of the villagers showed that the body joints are not only local deformities, but the gap between the hip joint and the femoral head are connected together, sticking tightly to the pelvis, allowing the patient to walk. , hard to move. Such bone changes cause the growth space to be strongly compressed, the main symptom being a stop in height growth.
Experts speculate that during the natural disasters of the 1930s, food stored in the village became moldy. At that time, traffic was congested, the terrain was difficult, and relief work was difficult, so villagers could only use moldy food to satisfy their hunger.
Fusarium is a fungus produced from mold. If humans eat it, it will inhibit the growth of cartilage tissue , affecting normal development. If you eat this type of mold for a long time, it will damage your bones and gradually deform your bones and joints, eventually becoming like a dwarf now.
For half a century, the villagers of Duong Minh Tu lived in self-consciousness about their appearance and were isolated from the world. As time passes, they learn how to calmly face everything and look at life optimistically.
Today, the village comes complete with its own police and fire forces. At the same time, people here also decided to build their houses according to fairy tale culture, turning this place into a tourist attraction and generating income for themselves.
