Chapter 760 - Worm (2)
"It"s in his arm… No, no, no! Master, it"s all over his body!" Little plum blossom squealed in panic. As a plant, it hated worms the most. They would destroy its perfect body.
Qin Yi"s expression became serious as she grabbed old Mr. Chen"s withered arm. She observed it carefully and noticed a few little b.u.mps that resembled something squirming.
She retrieved a dagger from the Origin s.p.a.ce and looked at Chen Che and the others sternly.
"It seems that the situation is far more critical than we thought. Little plum blossom told me that old Mr. Chen"s body is filled with worms. I"m going to perform a mini surgery and take a look."
Qin Yi"s words were meant to seek permission from the Chen family to do the surgery. After all, she was still an outsider to them.
"What?! Worms?! What kind of disgusting thing is it?" Chen Che"s expression changed as his eyes were filled with disbelief.
Madam Chen was also surprised but she chose to believe her. She chose to believe this extremely clean young lady.
"Yes! I beg of you to do everything to save him. The Chen family will be in your debt," Madam Chen pleaded with Qin Yi earnestly.
"Rest easy, Madam. I will do my best."
Old Mr. Chen was extremely important to Yun Huan. She would definitely give it her all.
Qin Yi placed a precise cut on old Mr. Chen"s arm, a dense stench coming out.
She was surprised to find that the source of the stench that she had initially noticed when she entered actually came from here.
Much less Qin Yi, even Madam Chen, who was always taking care of him, did not expect that.
"That- There are really worms ah."
Madam Chen believed Qin Yi wholeheartedly now, glancing at the calm young lady pa.s.sionately. Qin Yi was Old Mr. Chen"s hope. Not only that, she was the entire base"s hope.
Qin Yi swiftly grabbed onto old Mr. Chen"s arm and squeezed, a worm quickly dropping out.
Qin Yi then used a gla.s.s cup to capture it. The white worm was extremely small, the size of a little finger, and squirmed incessantly inside the cup.
It was extremely disgusting.
"What the h.e.l.l is that?!"
Chen Che was stunned. It was really a worm, but it was something he had never seen before.
Qin Yi took a look and her face turned cold.
"This is the baby bamboo worm, a parasitic worm that lives in the human body. Our blood and flesh are its food. It will continue to reproduce inside the body until the host dies."
Qin Yi exerted force and the gla.s.s cup broke, instantly killing the baby bamboo worm. The fat, white worm had black blood and released a disgusting smell.
Qin Yi knew of this worm from her past life. A small base had its entire population wiped out in two days because of it.
At that time, she was dispatched by the base chief to investigate. The base had a dense stench, and the citizens all died a horrible death. Their entire bodies were void of blood and flesh, like dried up corpses.
At that time, they returned with nothing, but her sharp eyes had discovered the worms at the corner of the wall. After bringing it back to the base to study it, they discovered the horrific nature of the worm.
Fortunately for them, they made a huge fire to burn the entire base. Otherwise, it would have spread to other places.
This worm had sections like a bamboo and was thus hailed as the baby bamboo worm.
Madam Chen was at a loss for words, but she forced herself to calm down. Since it had already come to this, it was pointless to panic.
"Miss Qin Yi, do you know how to get rid of these worms?"
Madam Chen stabilized her mental state and looked at Qin Yi in antic.i.p.ation.
