Everybody Must Take a Shower.

Lu Zhe discarded the half body of the ant, keeping only its head and mandibles tightly biting the wound.

Then came the second one, the third one!

Using seven ants, he tightly clamped the wound together.

Lin Qianqian asked, "What does this mean?"

"It's a method used by African natives to stitch wounds with ants. It's a less scarring method and sometimes more reliable than using needles and thread! Learn it!" Lu Zhe explained.

Jiang Yao looked puzzled and said, "Vaseline suffocates horseflies, ants stitch wounds... Oh my, what strange knowledge have I acquired?"

Tang Xiaoguo sighed, "I bet the horsefly never imagined it would die of suffocation!"

Ning Shu also marveled, "Even ants would never dream that they possess tailoring skills!"

Finally relieved, Lin Qianqian said, "Is it enough now?"

"Not yet!" Lu Zhe shook his head. "I'm not sure if there are any other parasitic larvae on her body. To eliminate any hidden dangers, we need to thoroughly examine every inch of her skin!"

Ning Shu pondered and said, "So... we have to undress Miss Ruan completely for the inspection?"

Lu Zhe nodded, "That's right! So, I'm counting on all of you for this task!"

The four girls imagined the sensation of little maggots crawling beneath the skin and nodded in agreement.

"Let's start while she's asleep!"

The girls hurriedly helped Ruan Bing undress.

Suddenly, Jiang Yao expressed her concern, "What if she wakes up and thinks we've gone crazy and want to eat her?"

Ning Shu furrowed her brow and replied, "Jiang Yao, can your thought process be a little more normal?"

"Mhm..."

The girls began their careful examination and were relieved to find that Ruan Bing only had one horsefly larva on her arm!

Jiang Yao sighed, "I didn't expect her to be so lucky."

Tang Xiaoguo pouted, "It's really enviable."

Ning Shu helplessly remarked, "Can you two focus on something more appropriate? Look at Lin Qianqian. Hey, Qianqian, what are you looking at?"

Lin Qianqian stared at Ruan Bing's upper thigh and murmured, "I've found a suspicious small red dot!"

The three girls looked over and instantly blushed.

"Qianqian, your focus is really peculiar. Look here!"

"Lu Zhe said we need to inspect every part of her skin... and I... I just noticed something suspicious here!"

"If it's really what we think it is, then it's tragic!"

"But what if it's not?"

"It's really hard to tell, isn't it?"

"This might be a horsefly egg?"

"I think we should ask Lu Zhe about this!"

"I agree. Let's have Lu Zhe confirm it. Saving a life is more important than anything else!"

Lin Qianqian nodded in agreement, "I think so too! As a doctor, Lu Zhe shouldn't be kept in the dark by his patient!"

Jiang Yao and Tang Xiaoguo also expressed their approval.

"Lu Zhe, could you come here for a moment?"

"What's the situation?"

"Take a look at this..."

Lu Zhe turned around and followed the direction pointed out by Lin Qianqian. Suddenly, his brain buzzed and he felt like his nosebleed was about to gush out!

"I'm still a virgin, but I'm forced to witness such a cruel scene! You guys are really heartless!"

"We're sorry, Lu Zhe!"

"This is also for saving people!"

"Just consider it a test. Only if you pass, you can prove that you're a true gentleman!"

"Cut it out! I'm not a gentleman. I'm just a normal guy, you know? I get shy!"

"Shy?" Ning Shu burst out laughing. "Don't pretend to be so innocent!"

"Haha, Lu Zhe is blushing!"

"So cute!"

"Alright, enough teasing. What's the situation?"

"There's a small red dot here, I don't know what it is!"

"Wait!" Lu Zhe pondered for a moment. "The late emperor started his business but died halfway and now I'm stranded on a deserted island. I have to check something, but forget it..."

Lu Zhe wasn't sure if it was a horsefly larva, so he reached out and touched the red dot with his finger!

"Ding! Found a cinnabar mole!"

He let out a sigh of relief.

"This isn't a horsefly larva, it's just a cinnabar mole!"

"How did you know by touching it?"

"Feel how a horsefly larva moves!"

Several girls breathed a sigh of relief!

"After all that, it's just a cinnabar mole?"

Lu Zhe nodded. "That's right, but I still appreciate your cautious attitude!"

Tang Xiaoguo pouted. "By the way, you've had an eyeful, haven't you?"

"I only looked at that little red dot. I didn't see anything else!"

Jiang Yao smirked and said, "I believe you!"

"It's not..."

"Alright, no need to explain! We understand!"

Ning Shu changed the subject. "Let's put some clothes on her!"

"Not yet!"

"Why not?"

Lu Zhe explained again, "There may be insect eggs on her clothes. They need to be thoroughly washed and sun-dried or baked for six or seven hours before she can wear them!"

"I see..." Ning Shu thought for a moment. "Then let her wear a light jacket?!"

"That won't work either! Right now, I'm not sure if there are any hidden insect eggs on her body. We have to wash her before deciding!"

The girls looked at each other, thinking that Lu Zhe's concern was not unfounded.

"What should we do then?"

"I suggest giving her a thorough wash from head to toe! Remember not to touch the surgical area, and also wash her clothes thoroughly!"

Lu Zhe thought for a moment and added, "In addition, we have all had contact with her, so theoretically, there might be horsefly eggs on our bodies too! So, we also need to wash our clothes and take a shower to ensure there are no eggs on us!"

Ning Shu exclaimed, "Ah? Does that mean we have to be completely honest with each other?"

Jiang Yao imagined it and said, "I strangely feel a bit excited!"

"What are you thinking? We have plenty of banana leaves, we can make temporary dresses and shorts. Let's get through the night like this, dry the clothes tonight, and we can wear them tomorrow."

The four girls looked at each other. "Okay... Let's do that!"

Lin Qianqian and Tang Xiaoguo went to rinse the clean seawater, preparing to clean up!

Jiang Yao and Ning Shu carried Ruan Bing's clothes to the rocks by the seaside to do the laundry!

Jiang Yao shouted, "Hey, Xiaozhe, take off your clothes and let us wash them!"

Lu Zhe felt a warmth in his heart but still refused, "Not now, I'll go dig some wild vegetables to eat tonight, and I'll wash them when I come back!"

After Lin Qianqian and Tang Xiaoguo finished washing Bingjie, they wrapped her up in banana leaves.

Lin Qianqian said to Tang Xiaoguo, "Let's go to the oyster stall and get some oyster meat. We'll all eat together when we come back! It's not convenient to go too far after taking a bath and washing clothes!"

Tang Xiaoguo was delighted, "I was just thinking about it. Let the squad leader and Yaoyao take care of Bingjie!"

The two girls went to the oyster beach with two plastic bags.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhe took a harpoon and prepared to enter the woods to gather some wild vegetables. But as soon as he took a few steps into the grassland, he stopped!

Cold sweat kept pouring out of his head!

Fifteen meters in front of him, there was a large python with a severely injured neck... Oh, no, a large python was staring at him with ill intent!

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
