Three days later at noon.

A fierce wind howled, dark clouds gathered, and after a few claps of thunder, large raindrops began to fall, making a pattering sound.

Summer scrambled off Aoki, patted the exhausted Aoki beside her, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Quick, let's go take a look. The chief's house is having its roof beam raised today."

The rain is very loud. I wonder what the situation is over there. I hope everything goes well.

Aoki smiled brightly, a faint aroma of wine wafting through the air. His cheeks were flushed, and he looked at Shengxia with a bewildered expression.

I got up, then slumped onto the bed, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

"Ugh, I feel so dizzy."

Is this what Xia meant by being drunk?

Sheng Xia's lips twitched, feeling that Qing Mu at this moment looked exactly like a sickly scholar whose life force had been drained by a demon.

And she was that enchantress.

"Pfft."

Summer was amused by her own thoughts, and she reached out to press down on the swaying Aoki.

"You can sleep a little longer. I'll have Tie Bai come with me to take a look."

Last night, to celebrate moving into our new home, we drank some mulberry wine. Aoki secretly drank a lot and got drunk on the spot.

He did it with incredible vigor, a full sixteen times!

Even in the height of summer, people fear he might die from exhaustion.

Finally, Tie Bai accompanied her. Sheng Xia sat in Tie Bai's arms, hugging his neck.

Her bright eyes looked up at the sky, her face filled with amazement.

"What amazing superpowers!"

The rain stopped half a meter above my head, then scattered, slid outwards, and dripped onto the ground.

As if a giant, transparent umbrella were sheltering him, Tie Bai embraced the height of summer, walking leisurely through the downpour without getting a drop of water on him.

The straightforward praise from Sheng Xia pleased Tie Bai. His expression remained unchanged, and his steps were still graceful, but his pink eyes brightened slightly, and his ears turned slightly red.

She was so sweet and gentle when she praised the animal...

In the height of summer, we were very close to the chief's house, and soon we arrived at the chief's door.

She was stunned when she looked up.

Above the sky, countless wings were connected together, flapping gently at the same frequency, blocking the dense rain.

The males looked anxious and quickly moved the mud bricks and materials from outside into the room.

Xiong Qi, carrying a bag of limestone, saw the newly made clods of earth next to him and shouted in a gruff voice.

"Quick, here's another piece of adobe."

"Okay, I'll do it!"

The gangster took a step forward, bent down to pick up the mud brick, carefully protected it, and nimbly avoided the other beasts as he moved forward.

Without the chief's personal intervention, the male workers acted spontaneously and quickly tidied everything up before leaving satisfied.

In the height of summer, I was deeply moved. The world of the orcs was simple, with clear distinctions between love and hate, black and white.

Just like how they thought summer was wonderful, they were willing to help her build a house, working day and night, as if they were on steroids.

At one point, she felt that the compensation was too low.

The flying orcs descended from the sky one after another.

The eagle shook itself the moment it landed, and most of the water on its wings was shaken off. The eagle next to it shook itself, and the water returned to its body.

Eagle: "..."

When Diao Xiao saw that he was still so wet, she helped him clean up with a look of disgust: "You're so slow. Hurry up and pack up to go home. I miss Guoguo."

Seeing this, Shengxia laughed so hard she bent over. She leaned on Tiebai's shoulder to catch her breath, and after a while, she said in a sweet voice.

"Okay, nothing's wrong, let's go home."

"good."

I had barely arrived home, and before I could even warm the rocking chair I'd been sitting in during the sweltering summer heat, an orc braved the rain to come knocking on my door.

"Is Shengxia home in the summer?"

A deep, pleasant male voice came from outside. Shengxia stood up and walked to the door. Qingmu quickly went over and opened the door.

The rain and mist obscured her vision, and she could only vaguely make out a large, dark shadow.

Sheng Xia thought to herself, "Whoever comes looking for her in this heavy rain must have something important to do..."

Suddenly, a cool chest pressed against her back, a slender, fair hand slipped through her waist, palm resting on her abdomen, and a clear, cool voice came from beside her ear.

"It's Xiangyu, holding Xingyin."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Yun turned her head and took Sheng Xia's round earlobe into her mouth, sucking on it passionately before letting her go.

Sheng Xia turned around and smiled, tilted her head up and kissed him back, then turned back to find Xiang Yu standing in front of her.

He was soaked to the bone, but Xingyin in his arms was clean; once the animal skin was removed, there wasn't a drop of water on her.

"Shengxia, please save Xing'er! I'll give you any amount of coins! Her knees hurt so much she's crying."

It hurts whenever it rains, poor Xing'er...

Shengxia glanced at Xingyin's pale face, pointed to the small stool by the door, and said in a gentle tone.

"Go and put her down, let Xingyin sit by herself."

This way it looks more convenient for her.

Xiangyu nodded repeatedly, hurriedly walked over, gently put her down, squatted down on the spot, and supported her back with his large hands.

Shengxia looked at the animal skin carpet under the stool, a smile playing on her lips. She sat down on the stool that Hu Xue had brought over and looked at Xingyin.

"When did the pain start, and how long did it last?"

Xingyin blushed and shrank into Xiangyu's arms, cautiously glancing at Shengxia's home decor, and exclaimed in slight amazement.

Upon hearing her question, he immediately sat up straight and answered with a serious expression.

"I can't remember, it hurts whenever it rains, it hurts a lot."

“…”

"Understand it clearly in a few words during the height of summer," he said solemnly.

"You have rheumatoid arthritis. I'll prescribe some medicine for you, and with acupuncture, you'll be better in a month."

Medication only treats the symptoms, not the root cause; combining it with acupuncture is key.

They were familiar with the word acupuncture; everyone in Yafatu knew that giving animals acupuncture in the summer could cure diseases.

Xingyin's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she widened her eyes in surprise.

"Thank you! When do we start?"

Seeing that she was sweating profusely from the pain, her face was pale, and she looked pitiful, Shengxia chuckled and said.

"I'll give you a prick first, so it won't hurt so much."

He then turned to Tie Bai and said, "Could you get me the needle?"

"good."

Sheng Xia moved with practiced ease, and soon it was time to remove the needles. She breathed a sigh of relief, and her gaze relaxed slightly.

I accidentally saw Anon's soles and noticed several rough bumps with black spots inside.

She stared wide-eyed in horror, took a step back almost imperceptibly, put the needle away, and looked up at Xingyin.

How long have you had these bumps on your feet?

That's a plantar wart! A highly contagious plantar wart!

It grows mostly on the hands and feet; it's a benign growth, a mild form of HPV. How could such a primitive place have this virus?

If nothing unexpected happens, the places she stepped on are all infected with the virus. If other animals step on them, those with low immunity will definitely get infected.

This rug is unusable!

Ange was still immersed in the great joy of the pain disappearing when she heard Shengxia's question. She paused for a moment and stammered.

"There was only one a few days ago, and Xiangyu removed it for me. Then a few more grew, but they didn't hurt or itch, so I ignored them."

Seeing that Sheng Xia's expression was rather unpleasant, her heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale again.
