Chapter 1211 Ancient Mosquito Repellent Technique

Until they left the Fayum Oasis, the elves still looked behind the car from time to time. They were obviously scared by the mosquitoes, and they were not in the mood to eat the lunch that Zhang Zi'an bought.

The bag that was stinged from Richard's forehead was bulging high, and it was extremely itchy. It had no hands and could not even scratch it. It could only pierce its head under its wings, but its wings were soft and its feathers were fluffy, and it could not relieve it at all. So it stumbled into the car, looking for other hard objects to rub it, sometimes hitting the roof, sometimes hitting the seat, sometimes hitting the dashboard, and sometimes hitting Zhang Zi'an, without stopping for a moment.

"I said you are pumping the horns? Don't block my sight, I still have to drive!"

When it flew to Zhang Zi'an, he reached out and pushed it away.

"Hurry! Help me scratch it, it's so itchy!" Richard shouted.

"What are you scratching? You'll be fine if you endure it for a while. The more you scratch it, the more itch it becomes. Besides, I still have to drive, so I can't make any moves." Zhang Zian warned based on his own experience.

"Where are other cars in this big desert? You can drive with your eyes closed! Soon! It's so itchy! It's so itchy!" Richard rolled in the air like a drunkard.

Seeing that it was really painful, Lao Cha said, "How about Lao Cha scratching you?"

"Don't! Your claws are too sharp. I am young and don't want to have a Mediterranean hairstyle!" Richard flatly refused.

Zhang Zian gave Lao Cha a wink, meaning: Did you see it? This means it is not itchy enough!

But letting it continue to torture like this is not a problem. It fills the thrust with tiny pink down feathers, and the pink down feathers drop a lot of dust.

All parrots and pigeons have pink down feathers. The dust produced by pink down feathers is like pm2.5. Long-term inhalation is not good for the body, especially in this closed environment. Many people who keep pigeons for a long time and do not pay attention to indoor ventilation have coughing problems. In severe cases, they may even suffer from pneumoconiosis, which is the pink down feathers.

There was no way, Zhang Zi'an parked the car on the side of the road and said, "Stop slapping, apply some cooling oil on your forehead, and it will stop itching in a while."

"Ga?"

Richard was shocked when he heard this. A few days ago, it had just fooled a few local Egyptian men to use cool oil as Indian divine oil. Unexpectedly, the retribution of the cause and effect cycle was unhappy. Perhaps this trick was too harmful. God disliked it, and it was retribution so quickly.

"Are you trying to make money and kill yourself? This thing will kill you!" it screamed.

"It's not that serious. I just applied it, so there's no problem." Zhang Zi'an opened the bottle, dipped it in a little thick yellow paste-like liquid with his index finger, and reached in front of Richard.

Richard was so frightened by the strong stimulating smell that he couldn't even open his eyes. It wanted to avoid it, but his body was held by Zhang Zi'an, and he could only twist his body in his hand and struggle repeatedly, trying to break free.

"Ga! I would rather die than obey... Hum?"

Zhang Zi'an opened the short feathers on his forehead and tried to apply cool oil to its swollen bag.

The cool oil with unknown ingredients took effect almost instantly. As soon as it was applied, Richard felt that the itch was greatly reduced.

"It smells so good! Apply some more!"

It was like a chaste girl who would rather die than obey, but at this moment it was shameless and said that I wanted me and I wanted it, and it was simply a shameless person!

Fortunately, both Zhang Zian and other elves have become accustomed to its shamelessness, so it is not surprising that it is common.

He dipped his index finger in a little bit, and in addition to the bag on his forehead, he also applied a circle around the bag, then wiped his hands on a tissue, and closed the bottle cap.

"Hmmmmmm! Good! I'm resurrected in full blood!"

After Richard's itch was relieved, he felt so comfortable that he simply lay on the top of the dashboard. "I didn't expect this cooling oil to be very good!"

"It's really amazing - next time if you dare to make trouble, I will use a cotton swab dipped in thick cooling oil and stuff it into your anus!" Zhang Zi'an drove the car back on the road.

Richard was shocked, "Gaga! You are too cruel! You can get through the same boat for ten years and sleep with a hundred years. At least we have slept with a pillow..."

"If you talk nonsense again, I'll put it in now!" Zhang Zian threatened.

Richard, based on the principle of not suffering the loss in front of him, gave in: "Okay, okay! I won't say that, I'll take a look at it for a while. I was too tired just now! Remember, 18 minutes later, I'm a good bird again!"

After saying that, it lay on the dashboard and slept soundly.

"Zi'an, why were there so many mosquitoes there just now?" Lao Cha asked.

Since they came to Egypt, they had hardly encountered mosquitoes, and the mosquitoes in Fayum Oasis caught them off guard.

Zhang Zi'an speculated: "Mosquitoes like water and humid places. There are generally no mosquitoes in pure desert areas. Mosquitoes will gather in the oasis in the desert. For example, the Fayum Oasis just now has the largest saltwater lake in Egypt - Lake Galone. Although Lake Galone is a saltwater lake, there are many fish, shrimps and algae that are adapted to saltwater, so mosquitoes gather around there in large quantities."

"So that's it." Lao Cha nodded, "If we encounter an oasis after we enter the desert, we must be careful."

Fina was too embarrassed just now, and she didn't care like Lao Cha, and she kept her face calm and didn't say anything.

"Hmph! I was careless for a moment and was taken advantage of by the sluts. There will never be such a thing next time!" It said gritting its teeth.

Zhang Zian didn't agree. What happened just now has proved that no matter how capable you are, it is difficult to deal with a huge number of creatures like mosquitoes.

"Do you want to apply cooling oil too?" he asked.

Fina glanced at him with contempt, "How could I wipe that kind of thing?"

"What if you encounter mosquitoes again?" he asked again, "Speaking of it... were there no mosquitoes in ancient Egypt? How did you prevent mosquitoes at that time?"

Fina thrust her chest and said proudly: "Of course there are mosquitoes, but we have a way."

"What method?" Zhang Zian was very curious. Could it be that in addition to superb mathematics, architecture and astronomy, the ancient Egyptians also had rich biological knowledge?

"It's very simple. This is the method passed down by Pepi II of the Sixth Dynasty of the ancient Egyptian Dynasty. It can be traced back to 4,200 years ago!" Fina said confidently: "Pepi II discovered that if he applied honey to the slaves beside him, mosquitoes would bite the slave instead of biting him."

Damn! This trick is really bad! Damn, don’t treat slaves as humans!

Zhang Zi'an sighed when he heard this, and regretted the slave who helped the Pharaoh use his body to block mosquitoes 4,200 years ago.

Um?

Wait a moment!

He suddenly recalled the smell and said tremblingly: "You said... there will be no such thing next time, can you..."

Fina nodded, pointing at him with her paws, "In the next town, go buy some honey and bring it to yourself!"
