Chapter 975 - Lecturing the Leopard Cubs (2) (1/2)
“She’s basically fine now. There’s still some remnant poison, but I don’t dare to go look for the scorpion tribe anymore. Just let An’an slowly expel the poison.” After saying that, Bai Qingqing slid into the water. It felt very good to take a cold bath on a hot day. She hadn’t managed to clean herself properly earlier, so she planned on doing a thorough cleaning now.
Bluepool had sneakily gone to the stone castle on a full moon night once. His heart wrenched up when he heard those heartbreaking cries. Hearing this, he sighed and said, “It’s fine that some of it has been neutralized.”
Bai Qingqing nodded happily.
“Hey, call the little silverfish over.” Bai Qingqing couldn’t wait to do a thorough cleaning of her entire body.
Bluepool’s mouth opened “silently”. Not long later, a stretch of silver light rose from the bottom of the water, crowding around Bai Qingqing.
There must be ample “food” for the little silverfish to be so enthusiastic. Bai Qingqing’s cheeks flushed up a little when she realized this.
To get rid of the awkwardness, she tried to look for a topic to talk about. “Why don’t you keep them in bubbles? Aren’t you afraid that they will get eaten by bigger fish?”
As Bai Qingqing said this, she looked around. The number of big fish in the water had clearly surged. There were even fishes the length of one’s arm eating aquatic plants on the surface of the water. Even when little silverfish went close to them, they just allowed them to do as they wished.
Bluepool said, “After adapting to this place for several months, the fishes here all realize the unique characteristic of the little silverfish and won’t eat them anymore.”
“What if they get hungry and eat them?” Bai Qingqing didn’t dare to believe the self-control of fish.
Bluepool smiled and said, “This is the rule. If any fish didn’t abide by it, the little silverfish would slowly notice and stop helping them to clean their body.”
Bai Qingqing said in surprise, “This works? They’re really smart.”
Bluepool smiled even brighter. “You’re making it sound as if they are smarter than you.”
Beastmen didn’t think of themselves as superior animals. To them, there was only the distinction between the strong and the weak. Therefore, they wouldn’t consider themselves as being smarter than animals. Bluepool had taken Bai Qingqing’s words seriously and thus couldn’t help but smile.
