Chapter 296: Leeches
When Zhao Lan saw Bai Zhi going out again, she hurriedly called her: “Where are you going?”
Bai Zhi replied: “I will go out to find some herbs, I will come back soon. Don’t worry, I’ll be alright.”
But how can Zhao Lan not worry? She just wanted to say that she’ll go with her, but she hasn’t opened her mouth, Bai Zhi hurriedly walked away
At this time, the sky was already bright, the number of villagers walking around has increased. When the villagers saw Bai Zhi, they surrounded and greeted her.
“Zhi’er, what happened to you and Hu Feng last night? We didn’t find you for half an hour. How did you come back?”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Thank you, everyone. I didn’t come back on my own. I and Hu Feng fell down the hillside. It was Awu who went to the hillside and rescued us.”
A young man opened his mouth and said: “No wonder, when I couldn’t sleep last night, I sat outside the house, I saw Awu holding a torch and walking towards the entrance of the village. I was puzzled at that time.”
Bai Zhi was very grateful to them, but now she was anxious to find leeches. She was not in the mood to chat with them. When she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of asking them where she could find leeches. They work in the fields every day, they must know where to find leeches.
“Li Bo, do you know where I could find leeches?” Bai Zhi asked Li Santong, who was standing next to her.
Li Santong asked with a curious face: ”Why are looking for leeches? Those things are a big nuisance!”
“I find them useful, do you know where I could find them?”
Li Santong said: “Now it’s autumn. I’m afraid that there will be no more. There is no water in the fields now. I’m not sure if you can find some in the ditch.”
The young man next to Li Santong answered: “Yes, I saw one sticking on Old Wu’s water buffalo. It’s so big and fat, I don’t know how much blood did it suck on the buffalo.”
Bai Zhi knew where the ditch they were talking about, so she immediately went towards it.
The water in the autumn morning was cold, so the leeches hide. When the temperature rises, they will come out again.
The only way to lure them out is to put a bait.
The leeches eat blood, so she will lure them out with blood.
Bai Zhi stood by the ditch, she took off her shoes and rolled up her trousers, exposing her legs. Then, she took out the scalpel she brought and used it to injured her two valves. Blood immediately flowed from it.
Bai Zhi slowly walked in the ditch with her bloody calves. She walked back and forth in the ditch. Not long after, she came up, and there were four or five fat leeches on her legs…
At this time, Li Santong and other two villagers walked over with hoes on their shoulders. When they saw this scene, their jaw almost drops in fright.
“Zhi’er, what are you doing? Even if you wanted to catch a few leeches, how can you hurt yourself?” Li Santong rushed forward to help Bai Zhi removed the leeches on her legs and calves.
Bai Zhi took out a handkerchief and Li Santong put the leeches in there.
“Li Bo, these leeches will be a great help to me. I am in a hurry to catch them. I can only draw them out with my blood. If I won’t do this, I don’t know when I’ll be able to catch them.”
Li Santong was puzzled: “What great help can these obsolete things do to you? This thing can’t be eaten either.”
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “They are useful for me. Li Bo, I’ll ask you something, do you know where I can find pangolins?”
The young man next to Li Santong immediately pointed his finger to the distant mountain roads: “In Luoying Mountain, that thing can only be found in the mountain, you can’t find them here.”
