Xin Lin hadn’t really paid attention to the matter of the Combat Lobsters.
She had been preoccupied with the free clinic and treating Jiang Qing, and with Lu Yuan and others taking care of the Combat Lobsters, she hardly kept an eye on the pond.
Upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Xin Lin went to the pond.
At the pond, the lotus leaves were still a lush green, swaying gracefully in the wind, but the lotus flowers were nowhere to be seen.
Due to the dicinal herb incident, Xin Lin had grown cautious and hadn’t been planting seeds soaked in the Jade Pure Spring in the dicinal field lately.
Similarly, she also added less of the Jade Pure Spring to the pond.
As a result, the lotus leaves could still grow, but the lotus flowers couldn’t be sustained.
After all, it was already almost winter, and everything was withering away.
Xin Lin planned to resu using the Jade Pure Spring after Long Qingxuan left.
But even without the Jade Pure Spring, the Combat Lobsters in the pond shouldn’t have had any issues.
By this ti, Xin Lin had also seen the problematic Combat Lobsters.
Under the influence of Xin Lin’s Jade Pure Spring, the Combat Lobsters were comparable in size to modern giant lobsters, even bigger.
Usually, their shells were black and red, with two tough black-red antennae looking very majestic, along with a pair of large red claws.
However, today, the Combat Lobsters in the pond were drooping their antennae, their shells lost their usual sheen, looking lethargic and lifeless.
"We suspect they’re poisoned because the Black Fish don’t look quite right either. But I’ve tested with a silver needle; there’s no poison in the water. If it’s not poisoning, then what’s the matter with these Combat Lobsters?"
Zuo Mingshang and Huang Xuerou were present as well.
Everyone looked worried.
Xin Lin examined the pond water; there was no peculiar sll.
Xin Lin also found one or two dead Combat Lobsters in the pond.
At this rate, the entire pool of Combat Lobsters might die off.
For Xin Lin and the others, these lobsters weren’t just simple food; she’d been raising them for quite a while, especially since her daddy loved these lobsters dearly. If they died without reason, daddy would be saddened.
Fortunately, these days, daddy had been busy with the dicinal field and hadn’t noticed the situation at the pond.
"There must be so reason. Have any outsiders been around the pond lately?"
"There were a few people from the Flying Scorpion Won’s College, but they only passed by."
Huang Xuerou recalled.
"I think it might have sothing to do with them. You all go back to your combat class, I’ll take another look."
Xin Lin grabbed a Combat Lobster, pondering.
Xin Lin collected so pond water, studying it thoroughly for a day.
But found nothing.
"That’s strange, what on earth is wrong with the Combat Lobsters?"
Xin Lin sighed.
Sadly, she couldn’t communicate with the lobsters.
Jiu Jiu~
Rong Qiu was bouncing beside her.
It rolled a few tis, hoping to get Mommy’s attention.
Seeing no effect, it glanced at the Combat Lobsters, then suddenly, its fur stood on end.
"Danzi?"
In a flash, it darted out, dashing back and forth by the pond.
"Danzi, did you find sothing?"
Xin Lin followed Danzi’s gaze.
It was staring at the pond, emitting sharp chirps towards sothing inside.
Under the water, there was faintly sothing.
In a sudden rush, a dark shadow shot out from under the water.
The shadow headed straight for Xin Lin’s face.
