Chapter 207: Insect Catcher
The other side.
Looking at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, An Ling yawned and stretched.
Since returning home, she has flipped out the "Apprentice's Handbook" and carefully studied it again, including the spells that were marked as high-risk at the back, and the manual did record some spells that can cause people to lose their memory for a short or long time, but all amnesia, including charming spells, are all-round amnesia, and there is no symptom of losing a piece of knowledge alone.
After an entire afternoon of study, Anling determined that it was not the witch's doing.
Before Gu Yun and the others came back, she decided to squint for a while.
In a warm environment, people are prone to sleepiness, especially after reading a book for a whole afternoon, An Ling now understands Shen Yue's recent abnormal situation.
She turned off the headlight, left the small light at the door, and then lay down on the couch and closed her eyes.
The minutes just ticked by.
After a while, the "Apprentice's Handbook" that had been closed suddenly sounded, and the book that had been opened by the invisible force slowly turned page by page, and the movement of turning the book was very small, and An Ling, who had fallen asleep, was unaware.
The flipped book finally stopped at one page, and then the illustrations on the Apprentice's Handbook changed slightly, twisting for a moment until a white worm crawled out of the pages.
The worm's foot is the size of a finger and moves slowly.
After the worm detected the direction, it crawled straight towards the couch where An Ling was asleep.
Without the faint sound of flipping books, the whole living room returned to a silent state, and even if An Ling was not asleep, it was probably difficult to notice the worms that were gradually approaching her.
It slowly climbed over the wooden floor, onto the carpet pressed under the coffee table, and then little by little onto the couch.
It wasn't until it was less than a few centimeters away from Anling that the worm arched itself, and small, dense teeth could be seen through its mouth.
Immediately after, it bit into the center of An Ling's foot as usual.
"Smack-"
The next second, there was a soft sound.
An Ling also woke up from her light sleep, and the first time she woke up, she saw the white kite standing next to her feet pulling a worm off the sofa in disgust.
"What's wrong?"
"Your book is a worm!"
As she spoke, the white kite carefully examined her wings, but fortunately the worm was more durable, and did not splash disgusting juice on her wings on the spot.
"Worms?"
An Ling looked at the worm that fell on the carpet and rolled and struggled, and fell into confusion.
She had seen bookworms before, and after some books had been left out for a long time, some small white bugs would grow in them, and she had seen them when she was looking through the comic books she bought as a child.
But the white worm was too big, and if it had really grown out of her book, it should have been discovered when she flipped through it.
"It just grew out of your book, and I've been staring at it for a while!"
The white kite leaned its head closer to its wings and sniffed it.
Fortunately, there is no strange smell.
Birds are much more sensitive to insects than humans, and the white kite has just woken up and is about to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, when he sees this white worm from a long distance.
That's what people often say, flying bugs.
This insect went straight all the way to An Ling, it didn't look like an ordinary insect at all, and looking at the posture just now, it was obvious that he wanted to bite An Ling.
As a pigeon, how could she tolerate this happening right under her nose?
So the white kite immediately flew over and mercilessly gave the worm a wing attack.
The worm rolled on the ground for more than ten seconds before turning over, and it was obvious that the white kite had a remarkable damage effect on it just now, and the first time it straightened its body, it crawled towards the "Apprentice's Manual" without looking back, and encountered a threat, but its movements were much faster than before.
However, given that its movements were already very slow, even if it was twice as fast now, it was still about the same as squirming on the ground.
"Something is wrong with this bug! White Kite, help me get her up! ”
An Ling was completely awake now, and with a wave of her right arm, she had the demeanor of an elite Pokémon trainer.
"No, it feels disgusting."
The white kite immediately refused An Ling's request, if she hadn't seen this insect just now and was about to bite An Ling, she wouldn't have been willing to fly over and slap this bug.
This chubby bug is the most disgusting.
"I'll help you roast baby corn at night!"
An Ling continued to chant.
The white kite used "catch"!
"Come on, come on, put it in here!"
One person and one pigeon cooperated very tacitly, while the white kite flew over and grabbed the worm with its claws, An Ling had already prepared the transparent container that had been seized from the witch society before, as soon as the white kite's claws were loosened, the worm fell into the container, and An Ling immediately sealed the opening, and the action was done in one go.
"Alright, I'm going to wash my wings and paws, and you're going to roast me three little corns in a minute!"
The white kite flew to the bathroom in disgust, and the soft feeling of the paws really made her feel a little uncomfortable, and she had to clean it up!
"You can use my shower gel, the rose-scented bottle."
An Ling said a word to the white kite, she placed the transparent container on the coffee table, and observed the worm through the container.
This was the first time she had seen a worm in real life, and after being trapped in the container, the worm tried to bite the inner wall of the container with its teeth several times, but ultimately failed.
"Wow."
An Ling saw its dense row of teeth, and involuntarily trembled, goosebumps all over her body rose - this thing is simply more and more disgusting the more she looks at it, and she was almost bitten by this thing when she was sleeping just now?
When she thought of it, she couldn't help but want to take a shower.
At this moment, the sound of the door opening came from the porch, and Gu Yun and the three of them entered the door together.
Gu Yun and Shen Yue were at a loss, although they had temporarily determined that the symptoms were caused by supernatural events, they didn't know anything about the details, and there was no progress in the discussions along the way.
"Gu Yun, you came back just in time! Check it out! ”
An Ling waved his hand to the other party, and handed the transparent container to Gu Yun, Gu Yun took a closer look, and found the white worm that was still attacking the inner wall of the container.
"How?"
He has a very high tolerance for insects, in fact, there are many monsters outside the village that look much more disgusting than worms, and he doesn't understand why people in this world are afraid of cockroaches and worms, which can be trampled to death with one foot.
When he hadn't moved before, An Ling saw the cockroach and flew directly on him.
"The white kite said that this worm grew out of my Apprentice's Handbook, and that it wanted to bite me while I was sleeping!"
"Growing out of a book?"
"Yes, it grew out of the book, I saw it all!"
The white kite's shouting in the bathroom was also accompanied by the sound of a faucet, and from time to time she could be heard flapping her wings, "This thing is super disgusting, I hate worms, you can throw it out!" ”
