Chapter 65: It's Itchy

Ji Yan and the other four turned their heads together when they heard the sound and looked in the direction of the strange roar.

I saw that in the chaos of this battlefield, there was a young elephant with a small head that did not look very large, and even looked like it was still underage, and it was roaring weakly.

The baby elephant was half-kneeling in the sea of corpses and blood, its body was almost buried around it, but its long nose was still moving, and the baby elephant was strapped with a sharp blade weapon on the top of its head and sides, apparently trained to be used as a biological weapon war elephant.

After all, Mei Yuning is a girl's heart, hearing the terrible cry of this young elephant piercing the sky, it is difficult to hide her pity, and she can't care about almost throwing it up just now, she turned her head and asked Ji Yan eagerly: "Let's go over and help it, shall we?" ”

Ji Yan hesitated slightly, generally speaking, the corpses on the battlefield have to be disposed of, some will be buried on the spot, and some will be cremated.

In addition to the high-sounding reason of respecting the dead, the practical reason is that the large number of corpses piled up is highly susceptible to plague, especially in hot and humid climates.

The corpses on the battlefield in front of you should not have been treated by both sides, and it has been a day or two, and a large number of germs should have been bred.

Ji Yan turned his head to look at the expressions of the other two, Sun Dayong was silent, but although he didn't speak, he shook his head slightly, obviously Sun Dayong didn't agree to step into this place, but the old man Chen had a look of affirmation, and he didn't know if it was because his locals had special feelings for elephants, or some other reason.

Ji Yan hesitated for a moment and said: "This war elephant may still be useful to us, we have to cross the river, now in this place, if you directly cross this battlefield on foot, I am worried that you will get sick, if this elephant can still move, it should be able to give us a helping hand and pass through this area." ”

Then, Ji Yan looked at Mei Yuning and said: "Captain Mei, you and Chen Laohan go to see the situation of this elephant, remember, don't touch anything on the ground or on the corpse, you must remember, remember, and cover your mouth and nose." ”

Mei Yuning naturally happily hugged his fists to receive his life, and Chen Laohan also bowed his waist with a smile, and the two walked to the battlefield one after the other.

Ji Yan and Sun Dayong were still standing in place, they were about a stone's throw away from the battlefield, watching Mei Yuning and Chen Laohan cautiously walk towards the young elephant.

The closer you get to the battlefield, the more flies and mosquitoes there are, but fortunately it hasn't rained on this day, otherwise there is probably no place to put your feet in this field.

Mei Yuning and Chen Laohan walked very slowly, and sometimes they needed to look around for a long time before they could barely find a place to put their feet, especially Mei Yuning, her eyebrows had been tightly twisted, this kind of thing was indeed not easy for a girl.

After about half a pillar of incense, Mei Yuning and Chen Laohan finally approached the injured young war elephant.

Seeing the two of them, Mei Yuning stroked the head of the little elephant, and by the way, helped it remove the blade that was tied to its head, and Chen Laohan was carefully examining its wounds.

This old man has been living in the mountains, and it is estimated that he still understands the habits and characteristics of these animals.

Seeing that the two of them were busy beside the young elephant for a while, Chen Laohan took out the kettle, poured all the water in the kettle into the young elephant's nose, and after a while, the young elephant really moved.

After that, Chen Laohan approached Mei Yuning again and whispered.

Mei Yuning was very excited after hearing this, and shouted in the direction of Ji Yan and Sun Dayong: "This elephant is still saved!" Can you help us ......."

Before Mei Yuning's words were finished, Sun Dayong was shocked, and he hurriedly made gestures, signaling Mei Yuning not to shout here.

Then, Sun Dayong looked around vigilantly, and waited for a while, as if Mei Yuning's shout did not cause any reaction, and then he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

After a while, Chen Laohan and Mei Yuning stood on the same side as the young elephant, and with the same force, the young elephant roared again, trembling and standing up again.

Chen Laohan made some gestures to the young elephant, and then led Mei Yuning in front, the young elephant seemed to be very obedient, following the two of them, although it was still a little unsteady, but it was still difficult to walk.

Just like that, the two of them were in front, like a formation in the back, and after a stick of incense, they finally came to the edge.

Ji Yan had also covered his mouth and nose with a cloth at this moment, stood on the edge of the battlefield, and responded to the two of them who had worked hard.

Leaving that bloody place, Mei Yuning couldn't help it, she quickly covered her mouth and ran to the side, holding on to a tree and hunching over, and kept vomiting, and it was hard for her to endure it for so long before she vomited.

Ji Yan looked at this young elephant closely, it is not big, it is estimated that it can carry two people at most, this is the smallest elephant Ji Yan has ever seen, it is estimated that in the group of elephants, it should be just an underage child.

However, in this chaotic world, not to mention elephants, there are many corpses of underage boys in the battlefield, and many children feel that they have just reached puberty, eleven or twelve years old.

Ji Yan gestured with Chen Laohan again, and Chen Laohan pointed to the legs and feet of the young elephant, where there were several wounds bleeding, but they didn't seem to be particularly deep.

After some communication, it was confirmed that the baby elephant should be able to carry people on its back again, and after hearing this, Ji Yan felt a sense of relief in his heart, and felt that the two of them had not worked in vain.

Since it was impossible to cross the river on foot, the four of them decided to treat the baby elephant first, which would take about a day, and then the second person would slowly carry the baby across the river to the other side of the river.

For the rest of the day, Chen Laohan took care of the young elephants, Sun Dayong was on guard, and Ji Yan and Mei Yuning were ready to eat.

That night, Mei Yuning quietly pulled Ji Yan to a corner, she frowned, and twisted her shoulders from time to time, as if she was a little uncomfortable, and whispered to Ji Yan: "I haven't bathed for almost ten days, and I feel very uncomfortable." ”

Under the dim moonlight, Ji Yan didn't see Mei Yuning's expression too clearly at first, so he said: "I know that the conditions here are indeed a little too difficult, but the matter of taking a bath may be really difficult to do at present, I have to think of another way." ”

Mei Yuning hesitated for a moment before she finally told the truth, she looked at Ji Yan and said, "I think there are a few places on my back that are particularly itchy......

When Ji Yan heard this, he gasped in his heart, this matter can be big or small, and it needs to be checked immediately.

Mei Yuning naturally knew that the current situation was not trivial, and she nodded and agreed.

Ji Yan looked at the rear, Chen Laohan was still taking care of the young elephant wholeheartedly, and Sun Dayong was guarding everyone with his back.

Under the moonlight, he could only carefully take off Mei Yuning's shirt and fade to his shoulders, Mei Yuning was wearing a gray and black soap suit, and the inside was tightly tied to protect her chest, in this stuffy and humid climate, it can be said that she is the hardest worker.

Ji Yan couldn't help but feel distressed.

However, these are not the key points at this moment, Ji Yan looked over carefully, and indeed saw that there were a few small red pimples on Mei Yuning's shoulder blades, which were not particularly big, the size of a rice grain.

These red poxes are particularly obvious against the backdrop of Mei Yuning's white and jade-like skin.
