The live stream audience also saw this scene, and were quite shocked.
"What is that?"
Wang Jian also came over, saw the situation on the red fox, and his face was surprised.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is a fox mange mite, a kind of mite that grows on the fox's skin. It looks like it's been there for a while."
Lin Tian's face was solemn.
Fox mange mites parasitize foxes, easily causing scabies and hair loss.
Severe cases can lead to the death of the fox.
It seems that the red fox discovered that it had fox mange mites and was itching all day long, but there was no way to cure it.
In desperation.
It happened to encounter me and Big Brother Wang passing by, so it came to ask for help?
Lin Tian guessed in his heart.
But no matter what,
Since he had discovered the problem with the red fox.
He couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
"Ah? Mange mites? Should we take it to the bureau to find someone to take a look?"
Wang Jian was also worried when he saw this.
The red fox was a Level 2 protected wild animal after all.
And it was so cute and clever.
Wang Jian was reluctant to see the red fox suffer so much.
Lin Tian hesitated after hearing this. He didn't have any medicine for treating mange mites on him.
But if he took the red fox to the city, he didn't know if it would be willing.
After all, it was a wild fox. Although it was very intelligent, it probably wasn't used to crowded places.
However,
He wanted to try.
"Little fox, I don't have any medicine on me to cure your illness. I'll take you to the hospital to see a doctor. Do you want to come with me?"
Lin Tian squatted in front of the red fox and asked.
The red fox tilted its head and let out a whimper, then jumped onto Lin Tian's shoulder, seeming to agree.
And the red fox's actions startled Wang Jian.
It actually jumped directly onto him, it had no defenses against Lin Tian at all.
Lin Tian was relieved to see that the red fox agreed.
"Big Brother Wang, let's go. We'll go to the city to find a vet to take a look at the red fox."
"Alright, let's go!"
Wang Jian returned to the driver's seat and started the car.
And Lin Tian, holding the red fox, got into the back of the pickup truck.
The giant panda mother and the pangolin on the truck were very curious about the red fox.
But Lin Tian didn't let them get close.
Fox mange mites are a skin disease that is somewhat contagious.
The pangolin wasn't afraid, but the giant panda mother might be at risk of being infected.
As for himself, he often drank spiritual water, and his body's immunity was incredibly strong, so he wasn't afraid of this kind of skin disease.
"This fox is so well-behaved, it got on the truck just like that."
"Foxes are truly the most intelligent animals, it understood Tian Ge's meaning immediately."
"Envious!"
"I want to raise a fox at home too."
…
Seeming to know that it had a disease, the red fox squatted on the truck very well-behaved and didn't run around.
It just scratched its belly from time to time, itching terribly.
It couldn't help but let out whimpers of pain.
Lin Tian felt a little heartbroken when he saw this.
He thought for a moment, looked at the roadside, and suddenly saw something that made his eyes light up.
"Big Brother Wang, stop for a second."
"Hm? What's wrong?"
Wang Jian stopped the car and turned his head.
And Lin Tian jumped off the truck and walked a few steps to the roadside.
He picked a wild herb with small black berries growing on it from the roadside.
He picked a few stalks and put them on the truck.
"Huh, Tian Ge, what kind of wild herb did you pick up and put on the truck?"
"What is this wild herb, can anyone give us a科普 (popular science)?"
"I only know that it's a wild herb, but I don't know what kind of grass it is."
"Cough, is there no懂帝 (someone who understands) to come out and give us a科普? If not, then I'll have to make something up."
…
The audience was curious.
Lin Tian glanced at the barrage and explained with a smile.
"This wild herb, everyone used to see it often in the countryside, and if you say its name, I believe many people will find it familiar."
"Have you all seen 仙剑4 (Chinese Paladin 4)? The protagonist's names are all taken from Chinese herbal medicine."
"And this is one of them."
"It's called 龙葵 (Solanum nigrum), in our local dialect, we call it 止痒草 (itch-stopping herb), it has a very strong anti-itch effect for skin itching."
As Lin Tian gave his科普, the live stream audience suddenly understood.
"Good grief, this is 龙葵 (Solanum nigrum)!"
"龙葵 (Solanum nigrum) looks like this, I often see it on the roadside, I didn't expect its name to be so nice."
"Tian Ge knows so much."
"When you say 龙葵 (Solanum nigrum), I immediately think of my wife, 诗诗 (Shishi)."
"Wake up upstairs, stop dreaming."
…
"Lin Tian, I didn't expect you to know about some herbal medicine."
Wang Jian also echoed with a smile, then worriedly said, "You're going to use this to relieve the fox's itching, but will it work?"
"We'll know if it works when we try it."
Lin Tian smiled and waved his hand. He got into the truck.
He took a bamboo tube made of bamboo from his backpack, put the 龙葵 (Solanum nigrum) in it, and found a thicker piece of wood to use as a pestle, crushing the 龙葵 (Solanum nigrum) into juice.
After finishing this, Lin Tian took some spiritual water from his backpack, poured some spiritual water to mix with the herbal juice to enhance the effectiveness of the herb.
Then he went to the red fox.
"Little fox, I'll put some herbs on you to stop the itching."
"Aiyinyin..."
The red fox tilted its head and let out a cute whimper.
It obediently lay down on its back, exposing its soft belly.
Its little eyes blinked at Lin Tian.
"So cute!"
"Ah, no matter how many times I see it, I feel like the little fox is so well-behaved."
"I can't take it anymore, I'm going to bleed from being too萌 (cute)!!"
"Tian Ge, please, please! Please cure it!"
