The stupid fish swallowed his anger. Of course he knew that the wounds on his body were infected, and every flick of his tail fin was excruciating painful.

Jiangyang was furious and worried, but when she noticed the silly fish lowering his head and forbearing, she lost all of her anger

She climbed back onto the rock, and without enough time to wring out the water from her wet clothes, she patted the open space next to her and said to the stupid fish: "Come up."

Chi Mei's eyebrows trembled and water droplets trickled from his eyelashes. He gently swam over, balanced himself on the rock with his arms, and with a little effort, his fish tail came out from the water.

His upper body was leaning against the rock wall, while his tail fin lay limply on the rock. This position may completely expose the wound. After leaving the water, the rotting area of the wound became more obvious. Jiang Yang bent down and carefully examined it, frowning silently: "The wound is already inflamed; if not treated, it will become really infected. Where has your previous recovery ability gone? This wound is far less serious than the one you were shot with; how could it become inflamed and fester?"

Chi Mei's tail fin tremble slightly. He bit his lip and whispered guilty: "This is already healed. It becomes more serious when I was injured again."

Jiang Yang was dubious: "How did you get injured again?"

Water drops fell from the tips of Chi Mei's wet hair. He lowered his head and not daring to look directly at Jiang Yang: "Just a few days ago, I went out to capture a fish when I was hungry, and then I got dragged into the reefs by a cunning octopus. I was unable to resist for a moment when I got crashed towards the reefs. That's why my scales were scratched... Actually, Ayang, you don't have to worry, my injury has recovered a lot, and it will be fine in a few days."

Jiangyang abruptly fell silent. It took several days for him to fully recover. How serious was his injury at the time? No, the wound on his back was clearly not healed from yesterday to this day. Jiangyang frowned, her intuition tells her that there was something wrong here, but she couldn't figure out what is it.

Looking at the hideous wound in front of her, bright red blood kept overflowing, which stung her eyes trebly.

"I'll go out to find medicinal herbs for you." Jiang Yang stood up quickly: "From now on, your wounds can no longer touch water, otherwise the infection will speed up."

There is no need to worry about food and drink on the island, but medicines are extremely scarce. She  could rely on natural herbs. It's unclear whether she'll be able to find them. She had to find them quickly while it was still early.

"Ayang." Chi Mei grabbed her belt.

Jiang Yang's heavy expression changed suddenly, and she grabbed the other end of the belt: "What are you doing?!"

The belt on her waist was only tied with a simple knot. Fortunately, she had quick-witted and grabbed the belt, otherwise she clothes became would be loose.

The silly fish knew that he had made a mistake, so he retracted his hand angrily and looked up at her. His bright black eyes were filled with twinkling stars: "Ayang, I am a merman. I will die if im not in the water"

Jiang Yang sighed and touched her forehead: "I told you not to let your wound touch the water; I didn't say your entire body couldn't touch the water."

She took off the coat that was completely wet and heavy and put it in Silly Fish's hands: "Here you go, if you feel dehydrated, used to dip it into the water to wet your the scales, but you must avoid the wounds, okay?"
