The sleeping Yongtai felt like he had become a pepper fish,

He walked freely among the underwater reefs and aquatic plants, surrounded by schools of fish and other aquatic animals.

Schools of fish walk through the floating grass as if they were walking through a dense underwater forest.

The sunlight hits the leaves of the floating grass, covering with golden light, like a warm spring March, which makes people intoxicated.

Yuta crossed the school of fish and swam to the surface, occasionally disturbing clusters of whitebait.

The light shone through the water into Yongtai's eyes, and he leaped towards the water...

Yongtai, who was originally sleeping, opened his eyes, and he thought of the picture that had just appeared in his dream, and his body couldn't help but lift the quilt and walk out the door as if sleepwalking.

Yongtai's mother lay on the bed, remembering what the white-haired insect master had said to herself during the day, and she couldn't sleep a little, although she accepted the potion that Yingu gave her, she didn't know how to explain what happened to Yongtai to him.

Thinking of this, Yongta's mother turned over with some concern, wanting to see Yongtai.

"Yongtai?"

She was a little surprised when she saw the empty bed, and immediately put on her clothes and rushed out the door.

The stars are brilliant, and the night is like an incomparably wide blanket, dotted with stars, and the surrounding mountains and forests are quiet.

"Yongtai!"

The woman rushed to the water's edge, and she saw that Yuta was about to dive into the water, and hurriedly shouted to Yuta.

It's not the first time that Yongta has slipped out of the door, and his mother will find him by the water every time.

As if he hadn't heard his mother's cry, Yongta continued to swim like a wooden man into the middle of the river.

"Didn't I tell you you couldn't come at night?" Seeing such a scene, the woman immediately waded into the water and grabbed Yongtai's shoulder,

"Are you dreaming of water again?" The woman was very distressed when she saw Yongtai's confused eyes.

"Hmm..."At this time, Yongtai looked at his mother who looked extremely worried in front of him as if he had just woken up from a dream.

The woman who returned home looked at Yongtai, who was slowly falling asleep on the side, and she took out the medicine bottle that Yingu had given her during the day and made up her mind.

She decided to give Yongtai a try, and she had no other way.

A few days later,

It was a hot day, and the woman was washing her clothes by the water's edge, when suddenly in front of her, the water was surging.

Yongta grabbed a fish and surfaced.

"Mother!" Yongtai swam to the shore and happily showed the fish in his hand to his mother.

"Wow, you've caught a big one!" The woman wiped the sweat from her forehead and praised Yongtai.

She was very happy to see Yongtai put the fish in the fish basket, because after using the medicine left by Yingu in the past few days, the webbing on Yongtai's hands looked much smaller.

What's more, because Yongtai's peers can't see Yongtai's abnormality anymore, they are willing to play with Yongtai.

Yongtai's body temperature was very low before, but now he has recovered like an ordinary person.

This gave her hope for healing her child.

Yin Gu walked through the bamboo forest and came to the creek again, he also walked to the nearby villages, and he had already inquired about the changes in the terrain, and before meeting with Xue Song, he was going to see how the little boy was doing.

"Yo, you look pretty energetic!"

Yingu saw Yongtai who was playing with his friends in the water and said hello.

"Ah, the smoking uncle!" Yongta turned to look at the white-haired man in front of him and replied.

"Uncle? Yingu sat by the river and pouted, so children just hated it.

"Don't you hate smoking?"

Yingu asked again, the last time he came over, the little boy had a very big reaction when he smelled his own insect smoke.

"Well, it's not that annoying." Yongtai swam to the stone near Yingu, thought for a moment, and then answered Yingu.

Yongtai's mother on the other side of the river saw Yingu and stood up and bowed to Yingu to express her gratitude.

When the woman's clothes were washed, Yingu followed her to the house.

"It seems that the medicine has worked," said Yingu, leaning against the door, and the little boy's condition seemed to be much better.

"Yes." The woman thought of Yongtai's current state, and her tone was relaxed. "The body temperature has also risen a lot, and I used to drink one liter of water a day, but now it is only about one-tenth of it."

"That's good." Yin Gu nodded and smiled, being able to suppress it meant that it was not a big problem.

"Thank you very much, can you give me some more of that medicine?"

The woman said with some embarrassment that the medicine last time was given to them by Yinggu.

"Let's talk about it first, I guess it won't continue to get better,"

Yin Gu looked at the woman and said solemnly, although it was suppressed, it was almost the limit, and it could not be completely healed without getting rid of the worms.

"Because it didn't drive away the insects, the rain Gu didn't originally take humans as its host, so the impact on humans was not so profound, but creatures such as the Sanjiao fish would assimilate with it and disappear into the water after being parasitic for a few years."

"This kind of worm is actually very tricky."

“... Ahh But it doesn't matter if the kid is there, right? ”

The woman clenched her hands and was a little worried when she heard Yingu's words, so what should she do?

"Probably the drugs suppressed the effects and allowed him to maintain the status quo."

Yingu explained.

"If you think that's okay, I'll send the medicine again after a while, of course, I'll make it cheaper for you."

There wasn't much spirit wine left in Yinggu, so I could only make some of it for her first.

He was going to wait until he went back to meet Xue Song, and then asked for a little spirit wine to make a potion and send it over.

"Yes, that's enough."

The woman also breathed a sigh of relief, and it was good to be able to maintain the status quo.

In the evening, the weather is still hot.

On the path,

"Uncle!"

Yongtai carried a harpoon on his shoulder and a fish basket pinned to his waist, and slowly followed behind Yingu, he still admired this uncle who helped him solve the abnormality.

"I'm not an uncle!" Walking in front of the silver ancient road,

"When will you come next?"

Yongtai ran a few steps to keep up with Yingu's pace.

"I'd like to think about it, probably in the autumn,"

Taking the cigarette from his mouth, Yingu thought for a moment and replied, leaving enough medicine to wait until he returned.

"I'm gone, don't drown again."

Yin Gu turned around and admonished.

"I haven't drowned!"

Yong Tai thought about it and replied.

"Don't talk nonsense, did you forget?"

Yin Gu didn't believe it, how could he be parasitized by the rain Gu without drowning!

"Hey, Yongta..."

Yingu wanted to say something, and Yongtai's friends shouted in front of him.

"Goodbye, then." Yongtai said goodbye to Yingu and ran forward.

Yin Gu looked at the back of the little boy leaving, shook his head, and also walked to the place where he had made an appointment with Xue Song.

Yingu, who joined Xue Song, told the little boy about it, and he also asked for another pot of spirit wine from Xue Song.

"Rain Gu?" Xue Song pondered for a while, the rain Gu would go to the sea with the flood, and in his perception, the surrounding water vapor was very strong, and there would be heavy rainstorms in the next few days, and the probability of forming a flood was very high.

Before Yingu came back, Xue Song was still discussing the matter of evacuation with the mayor of the town.

Informed Yin Gu of the news that there might be a flood nearby, and after Yin Gu heard the news, he planned to take advantage of the flood to help Yongtai expel the rain Gu.

The two hit it off and prepared to stay in the town and wait for the heavy rainstorm to come, and by the way, help the town plan to evacuate.
