The blood-red sunset glows like an orange bonfire on the horizon, illuminating the vast expanse of yellow sand. The outline of the sand dunes becomes soft and mysterious in the afterglow of the setting sun, and every grain of sand seems to be stained with a layer of light rouge, exuding a desolate and warm beauty.

Mo Mo withdrew his gaze and looked back at the two thatched huts behind him. In one, the chief of the Tsukuyomi tribe was being rescued by a modern medical team, and in the other, a scientific research team was studying the blood of a sick patient.

"Don't worry, there will be results soon."

Yan Mu reached out and patted Mo Mo's shoulder to comfort her.

"Yeah." Although Mo Mo nodded, her frown still did not relax; she turned around and looked at the orange sunset again.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing, I was just thinking that if Liang Chuxin and Zhao Wenting had really fallen into the abyss as the clan leader said, would they be as leisurely as we are now? Can they also see such a beautiful sunset scenery at this moment?"

"Maybe." Yan Mu glanced at Mo Mo's profile. He saw circles of light above her head because of the orange-red sunset.

"Found it, there's something wrong with the water source!"

The first person to come out of the room where the research team was located held two liquid comparison samples in his hands. One was the blood sample of the tribe leader and the other was the water sample of the Tsukuyomi tribe.

Yan Mu and Mo Mo immediately followed into the room.

"After experiments and comparisons, we found that the water source here contains a large number of blood-sucking parasites, and the eggs of this parasite need to remain dormant for a long time before hatching, and the hatched parasites will form this kind of blood hole that is difficult to heal. But... strangely, this kind of parasite should be difficult to survive in the human body for so long. Before the eggs hatch, they should be eliminated by the antibodies in the human body. After comparing blood samples, we found that the members of the Tsukuyomi tribe lack this antibody in their blood. This is why we outsiders don't get sick."

"As for whether the situation in other tribes is the same, we need to conduct further investigations. We need to take blood samples from members of different tribes for comparison, and we also need to investigate the sources of their drinking water at the same time."

"The other tribes haven't reached a consensus yet." After hearing the doctor's last words, Yan Mu looked embarrassed. After all, the other tribes still hated them.

"Then why don't we start investigating from the water source of the Tsukuyomi tribe? Even if we can collect some information, it would be good." Mo Mo spoke.

"Well, that's all it can do."

So Yan Mu and Mo Mo left the room and headed towards the tribe’s water source.

It turns out that the source of water for the Tsukuyomi tribe is a natural mountain spring. The air around the spring is moist and fresh, with a faint scent of grass and soil. The surrounding vegetation is particularly lush and green because of the nourishment of the spring water, and various exotic flowers and plants are growing.

Because he was eager to investigate the insect egg situation in the water source, Mo Mo jumped into the mountain spring without hesitation, regardless of Yan Mu's dissuasion.

As Mo Mo jumped into the spring, he felt a cool feeling all over his body instantly, as if every inch of his skin was soaked in an instant and lost its original temperature.

There is a different world inside the spring, and the spacious space makes people marvel at the ingenuity of nature. The water plants sway gently under the caress of the water flow, forming patches of green forests underwater, adding a touch of vitality to this hidden underwater world. Among the water plants, small fish and shrimps shuttle among them. They are colorful, like elves in the water, swimming freely and playing among the water plants from time to time.

At this moment, Mo Mo was like a mermaid in the water. She was quickly intoxicated by the scenery in the water. She looked around and played with the fish and shrimps in the water.

The followers who followed him were all stunned.

"What are you looking at? Be alert!"

Yan Mu kicked the knee of a superpower police officer next to him jealously and shouted coldly!

The followers then came to their senses. Although they were looking around carefully and on guard, they still glanced into the pool from time to time.

The deeper she dug, the colder Mo Mo felt. She thought it was because she had been soaking in the water for too long.

She saw nothing special everywhere, just ordinary underwater plants, small fish and shrimps.

Looking back, she suddenly saw a black hole, so she swam over to take a look. It seemed that there was a lot of space inside the hole, so she got closer and closer, wanting to see it more clearly.

Suddenly! A big golden eye blocked the entrance of the cave!

As if this big eye also saw Mo Mo, it blinked.

Mo Mo was startled by the sudden appearance of the eyeballs, and a string of bubbles came out of her mouth, and a large mouthful of water choked her mouth and nose. She quickly turned around and swam back.

He looked back uncertainly, only to find that the rolling eyeball was gone. Instead, the surrounding stone walls were shaking as if they had been hit by a huge object.

Mo Mo swam faster.

"What are you looking at! Turn your backs!"

Seeing Mo Mo swimming back to the shore, Yan Mu told the supernatural police to carry her on their backs. After all, his sister was still a virgin.

"How is it? Have you found out anything?" Yan Mu took off his coat and wrapped her wet body, and asked kindly.

"Ahem... there's... there's a monster inside, but it seems to be trapped deep inside and can't get out. I suspect... ahem! ahem..."

Mo Mo, who was choked, spoke intermittently.

"That's right, there really is something wrong with the water here." Yan Mu understood what Mo Mo said. As he spoke, he reached out and buttoned up the top row of his coat, leaving only the bottom row unbuttoned to give Mo Mo room to move his hands. "You, can you listen to my instructions next time? It's a good thing it's trapped inside, otherwise it would have gone there without a chance of returning."

"Okay, got it." Mo Mo responded to him softly.

Seeing her like this, Yan Mu thought that she might be really scared, so he reached out and patted her on the back with some heartache.

Later, another group of people were dispatched to investigate the spring, they chiseled open the stone wall that trapped the monster, and then tied up a giant toad with a rope.

"vomit--!"

When Mo Mo learned that every drop of water he drank since coming here was related to the huge monster in front of him, he felt nauseous and vomited violently.

"It's a blood-sucking green toad. As it grew older, it got stuck in the spring and couldn't get out. It also couldn't go out to look for food, so it released these eggs that parasitize living organisms. It survived by sucking blood in this way."

This is what Yan Mu told Mo Mo later, and he also said that the people of the Tsukuyomi tribe publicly burned the monster to death.

"It was burned to death so quickly. Do the people from other tribes know about this?" Mo Mo tried hard not to recall the ugly appearance of the vampire green toad. "If people from other tribes knew about this, it might be good for us."

"Don't worry about that. The clan leader and I have already arranged for people to spread the news. The current problem is: how to treat those who are already sick."

"Maybe, I can give it a try." Mo Mo took out the bag of black insect pupae that Lao Sun gave her.

The pupae were indeed very easy to hatch when they came into contact with water. With the help of the medical team, except for the two pupae that were wasted at the beginning, Mo Mo used all of them to treat the members of the Tsukuyomi tribe. She put the hatched leeches into the potion with antibodies for half an hour before introducing the leeches into the patient's body. After half an hour, she let the patient soak in a bathtub full of sheep's blood to facilitate the leeches from the body. And there was a professional medical team to provide follow-up rehabilitation treatment for the patients.

Yan Mu led his research team and a small force of supernatural police to install a water filtration system at the spring.

In just two days, the patients in the tribe all had antibodies in their bodies, and scabs began to form around the originally horrific blood holes. The doctor said this was a healing reaction.

Yan Mu and Mo Mo’s efforts paid off, as patients from several other tribes came to them for help.
