The viewers in the live stream also saw this scene and were shocked.
"What is that?"
Jason Wang also came over and saw the condition on the red fox's body, his face filled with astonishment.
"If I'm not mistaken, this is fox sarcoptes scabiei, a type of mite that grows on a fox's skin. It looks like it's been there for some time."
Tom Lin's face was solemn.
Sarcoptes scabiei parasites on foxes can easily cause scabies and hair loss.
In severe cases, it can lead to the death of the fox.
It seemed that the red fox had discovered that it had sarcoptes scabiei, suffering from itchiness all day but unable to find treatment.
In desperation, it happened to encounter Tom Lin and Jason Wang passing by, so it sought their help?
Tom Lin speculated in his mind.
But regardless, since he had discovered the red fox's problem, he couldn't just ignore it.
"Ah? Sarcoptes scabiei? Should we take it to the bureau to find someone to look at it?"
Jason Wang looked worried at the sight.
After all, the red fox was a second-class protected wild animal.
Moreover, it looked so cute,obedient, and intelligent.
Jason Wang couldn't bear to see the red fox in such pain.
Tom Lin hesitated when he heard this, as he didn't have any medication for treating sarcoptes scabiei on him.
But taking the red fox to the city, he didn't know if it would agree.
After all, it was a wild fox. Although it was very intelligent, it might not be accustomed to crowded places.
However, he wanted to try.
"Little fox, I don't have any medication to cure this on me, but I can take you to the hospital to see a doctor. Do you want to come with me?"
Tom Lin crouched down in front of the red fox and asked.
The red fox raised its head and made a cute sound, then jumped onto Tom Lin's shoulder, seemingly agreeing.
The red fox's actions startled Jason Wang.
It had jumped up so directly, without any hesitation or wariness towards Tom Lin.
Seeing that the red fox had agreed, Tom Lin also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Wang, let's go. Let's first go to the city to find a veterinarian for the red fox."
"Oh, let's go then!"
Jason Wang returned to the driver's seat and started the car.
Tom Lin, holding the red fox, got into the back of the pickup truck.
The Mama Panda and pangolin in the car were both curious about the red fox.
But Tom Lin didn't let them get close.
Sarcoptes scabiei is a contagious skin disease.
Although the pangolin wasn't afraid, the Mama Panda might be at risk of infection.
As for himself, due to regularly drinking magical elixir, his body immunity was extremely strong, and he wasn't afraid of this skin disease.
"This fox is so well-behaved, getting into the car right away."
"The fox is indeed the most intelligent animal, understanding Brother Tom's meaning right away."
"I'm jealous!"
"I also want to hug a fox and keep it at home."
...
It seemed to be aware of its illness, and the red fox crouched in the car, well-behaved and not running around.
Its paws occasionally scratched its belly, as the itchiness was quite unbearable.
It occasionally let out a pitiful cry.
Tom Lin felt sorry for it.
He thought for a moment, glanced at the ride, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Brother Wang, stop for a moment."
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Jason Wang stopped the car and turned his head.
Tom Lin jumped out of the car and walked a few steps to the ride.
He picked a weed with tiny black fruits from the ride and picked a few more, placing them in the car.
"Hey, Brother Tom, what weed did you pick up?"
"What is this weed? Can someone explain?"
"I only know it's a weed, but I don't know what kind it is."
"Cough, isn't there any knowledgeable person here to explain? If not, then I'll just make something up."
...
The viewers were curious.
Tom Lin glanced at the chat messages and explained with a smile.
"This weed is very common in rural areas, and if I tell you its name, I believe many of you will find it familiar."
"You guys have watched 'Chinese Paladin 4', right? The names of the main characters are all based on Chinese herbs."
"And this is one of them."
"It's called Solanum nigrum, and we locals call it the Itch-Relieving Herb. It has a strong effect on relieving skin itchiness."
With Tom Lin's explanation, the viewers in the live stream suddenly understood.
"Wow, this is Solanum nigrum."
"Solanum nigrum looks like this, and I often see it on the ride. I didn't expect its name to be so beautiful."
"Brother Tom knows so much."
"As soon as you mention Solanum nigrum, the image of my wife Shi Shi pops into my mind."
"Wake up upstairs, stop dreaming."
...
"Tom Lin, I didn't expect you to know some herbs."
Jason Wang echoed with a smile beside him, and then worriedly asked, "Are you using this to relieve the fox's itchiness? But, will it work?"
"We'll see if it works by trying it out."
Tom Lin waved his hand with a smile and got into the car.
He took out a bamboo tube made of bamboo from the basket, put the Solanum nigrum inside, and found a thicker stick to use as a pestle, crushing the Solanum nigrum into a liquid.
After doing this, Tom Lin took out some magical elixir from the basket and poured it into the herbal juice to enhance its efficacy.
Then he went over to the red fox.
"Little fox, let me apply some herbal medicine to relieve your itchiness."
"Aww..."
The red fox raised its head and made a cute sound.
It lay down obediently on the ground, exposing its soft belly.
Its little eyes blinked at Tom Lin.
"So cute!"
"Ah, no matter how many times I see it, I still think the little fox is so well-behaved."
"I can't take it anymore. I'm being melted by its cuteness!"
"Brother Tom, please! Must! Cure it!"
