Bai Qi blushed: "Fuxiang, take Yinji up first, and you can wash later."
"Okay." Fuxiang responded and took Yinji back to the cave.
When the two cubs returned to the cave, they saw Ye Li sitting awkwardly on a rock, his little face flushed and his ears almost bleeding.
Fuxiang was a little puzzled. The cave wasn't hot, so why was the orc's face so red? Was he sick?
"Hey, big black snake, are you okay?"
Ye Li shuddered, sat up straight, and said loudly, "What can happen to me?" I just learned a few horse stances and saw that female body. Is that a big deal? No, no! So I'm fine!
Fu Xiang was frightened by his extremely loud voice: "If you're fine, then it's fine. Why are you making such a loud noise?"
Father was right, stray animals are indeed abnormal.
"Tsk!" Ye Li curled the corner of his mouth. Little bastard, he hugged him and called him father last night, but now he dares to talk to him like this.
Elsewhere, three males sat in a circle around Tu Ling. Yin Hen lowered his head and nonchalantly washed himself with water, ignoring his reddened ears. Bai Qi smiled happily, letting Tu Ling smell him as he washed. Zi Ye sat down in the water, then suddenly emerged, looking at Tu Ling with a dazed, alluring look. Seeing Tu Ling didn't react, he repeated the action several times.
Tu Ling was exhausted: "Can't you guys wash away from me? You're surrounding me like this, do you want me to use your bath water?" Looking at Zi Ye's coquettishness, she couldn't bear to watch: "And Zi Ye, I misjudged you before. I thought Bai Qi was the coquettishest person in the cave, but it turned out to be you!"
"Madam, I've taken a good shower and there's no smell!" Bai Qi smelled himself and felt a little depressed.
Tu Ling lovingly touched the big white rabbit ears on Bai Qi's head: "I'm not talking about you, go play."
When Zi Ye heard Tu Ling teasing him, he didn't get angry. Instead, he relaxed and collapsed on Tu Ling: "Does the female master like it?"
Tu Ling looked at Zi Ye carefully with sidelong glances. Zi Ye looked a bit mixed-race, with a straight nose and sharp eyes. He was obviously a snake, but his eyes were more charming than those of a fox.
I couldn't help but think of myself. I was obviously a fox, but I had cute round eyes and was as tall as a small potato. When I stood up, I reached Zi Ye's chest.
In fact, Tu Ling is not short. She is about 1.7 meters tall. It’s just that males are naturally tall, which makes her look a little short.
"Scatter, wash your own, and don't come near me." Tu Ling ordered.
After the orcs dispersed, Tu Ling finally had his own space.
After soaking for a while, she suddenly thought of something and looked carefully at the water surface. When she saw the situation she was worried about, someone jumped out of the water and said, "You three, hurry up and get up!"
Bai Qi was confused: "What happened to the female master?"
Tu Ling frowned in disgust and pointed at the water.
The three of them looked in the direction of Tu Ling's finger and saw two or three black and yellow threads entangled together in the water, wriggling constantly.
When Tu Ling saw those thin threads, she got goosebumps all over her body. She was not afraid of ghosts or zombies, and she even dared to fight the Zombie King, but she was afraid of these soft things that could drill into the human body.
When she thought about how she had bathed in this water several times before, she felt uncomfortable all over.
"Madam, what is this?" Bai Qi was a little confused. He poked it with a stick, and the ball of thread broke apart and swam away along the current.
"Wireworm. It's a very disgusting and dangerous creature." Tu Ling looked disgusted.
"Don't be afraid, lady, I will protect you." Yin Hen said seriously.
"Doesn't this thing look very dangerous?" Zi Ye was a little unhappy to see Yin Hen stealing the show, and deliberately found fault with him.
Tu Ling knew that these orcs did not understand the power of the iron wire worms, so she decided to take them to see it.
After searching for a long time in the grass by the stream, I finally found a mantis with a big belly.
He filled a bamboo tube with water and took the mantis back to the cave.
Tu Ling placed the bamboo tube on a raised stone, and a group of orcs gathered around. Ye Li watched them gathered in a circle, not knowing what they were doing. Unable to help but feel curious, he stretched his neck to look, but the area inside was so tightly sealed that he couldn't see anything.
"Tsk, it's definitely not a good thing." Ye Li couldn't see it, so he could only squat back in the corner and couldn't help complaining.
Tu Ling pinched the mantis's head and put its tail into the water. After more than ten seconds, a black tip actually emerged from the mantis's tail. When the tip appeared in full, the beasts exclaimed "Wow!"
When Ye Li heard their sudden exclamation, he felt as uncomfortable as if he was scratched by a cat.
What are they doing?
Ye Li stood up, shaking his head, brushed off the non-existent dust on his butt, and approached with sluggish steps: "What are you looking at?"
No one paid any attention to him. Everyone was concentrating on watching the scene in the water. Ye Li pushed Zi Ye and Yin Hen aside and looked into the water.
I saw a black and thin thing coming out from the tail of the green mantis and falling into the water. The thing was several times longer than the mantis and was actually hidden in the mantis's body.
"Is this the wireworm we just found in the water?" Bai Qi was surprised: "It can actually drill into other people's bodies."
Tu Ling hummed: "Keep watching."
After the iron wire worm left the mantis, its stomach deflated and it died soon after.
"Dead." Ye Li said in surprise.
Everyone turned to look at him in confusion: "When did you come here?"
"This is not the point! The point is that the mantis is actually dead. What kind of insect is this? A wireworm? It's so scary." Ye Li was still shocked. He had never seen any kind of insect that would drill into someone's stomach and then drill out from that place. The key point was that after it drilled out, the drilled creature died. This death was too undignified.
"There are such insects in the stream at the foot of the mountain." Yin Hen said seriously. He realized the power of this insect. They usually bathe in the water, wash things in it, and drink water from the stream. If they accidentally drink it, the consequences will be disastrous.
"But fortunately, the wireworms are still quite obvious. Just be careful in daily life." Bai Qi was very optimistic.
Tu Ling said directly: "No, there may be iron worm eggs in the water, which you can't see. Maybe you have iron worms in your body right now."
"Ah?" Bai Qi covered his butt in pain: "I don't want it."
Tu Ling laughed out loud. In fact, the probability of iron nematodes parasitizing the human body is quite low. She simply thinks that this kind of creature is creepy.
But she didn't tell them that the probability of parasitism was very low. After all, in addition to the iron worms, there were other substances in the water that were harmful to the body. "So don't drink water directly from the stream in the future. Make sure to boil the water over a fire before drinking it."
"Can fire kill iron wire worms?" Zi Ye asked.
Tu Ling nodded: "Of course, we can kill them all, including their eggs."
"Fire is so powerful!" Fu Xiang looked at Tu Ling with admiration. Fire is so powerful, but only his mother has fire, so the most powerful one is his mother.
"What is fire?"
