What is a pubic loach?

Yunhe curiously approached Xu Yuan; he had never heard of this name before.

Is it a type of fish?

I guess so.

Xu Yuanyuan spoke softly, "His body shape is no different from that of an ordinary carp, but his body is covered with red suckers like bumps, which he uses to absorb the yin and yang energy of the human body."

"Its most impressive feature is its teeth."

"Teeth? Fish don't have teeth!"

"Other fish don't have teeth, but the pubic louse fish does."

Xu Yuan calmly replied, "It not only has teeth, but they are also extremely sharp. Once it bites you, it will absorb all your flesh and blood instantly, leaving no trace of your body."

Upon hearing this, Yunhe and the students behind him all gasped in shock.

"What do we do now?"

Should we drain the pond and catch it?

"You can't catch it unless you can lure it out on its own." Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and looked into the water, as if trying to see through the surface to find the pubis.

He tried his best, but couldn't see anything unusual in the water.

There wasn't even a single earthworm, let alone pubic louse.

"Wouldn't that be very dangerous?" Wang Daping glanced at the students around him with lingering fear.

"Won't it hurt the students?"

"How did this thing end up at school?"

"Over time, it will definitely have an impact."

It is an extremely yin substance that specifically absorbs the yin and yang energies from young men and women, which is why staying around it for a while makes one feel physically exhausted.

The guy who had previously said the short-haired girl was tired because she was doing something naughty with her boyfriend here awkwardly touched his nose.

Xu Yuan continued, "This item is only recorded in ancient books and has never appeared in reality."

Its presence here must mean it was deliberately kept here.

"Domesticated?"

Wang Daping was visibly excited: "You mean, someone is deliberately raising this thing?"

Why keep it? To eat fish?

Yunhe and the students also looked at Xu Yuan with curiosity, wanting to know the answer as well.

You're right.

Xu Yuan suddenly turned to look at the terrified Wang Daping.

"We raise it just to eat it."

"Once the pubic lice fish have been raised to a certain extent, the person who raises them can absorb their essence and use it for their own purposes, cultivating demonic arts."

The book records that a thousand years ago, a man named Wang Guanguan succeeded in this.

He cultivated a technique called the Nightless Ice Technique, which is an extremely yin and cold technique that is dozens of times faster than ordinary cultivation.

It also has obvious side effects, namely the need to constantly absorb the yin and yang energy transformed from the pubic louse.

It is said that he lived for nearly three hundred years, only dying when the pubic louse became extinct.

"Can he live for more than three hundred years?" Jing Shan asked in astonishment.

"Could this be the legendary method to achieve immortality?"

Xu Yuan glanced at him calmly: "Most people who raise pubic lice fish do so for the purpose of achieving immortality, but according to records, only one of them has succeeded."

"Does this mean that the person who keeps this pubic louse fish might also be seeking a method for achieving immortality?"

Lu Da said in a low voice, "But who would raise pubic catfish here?"

The group exchanged glances, none of them knowing the answer.

With so many students and constant comings and goings at the school, it's impossible to know when the baby was born, making it difficult to trace its origin.

"You just said you wanted to lure it out."

What method can be used to lure it out?

Wang Daping asked anxiously, "But this is at school."

If something happens to a student as a result, no one can afford to take responsibility.

Xu Yuan picked up a pebble, creating ripples: "Singing of flowers and grasses."

"If there is a 'Yin Hua Cao' (a type of herb), it can attract pubic louse fish. Once it appears, I have a way to get rid of it."

"But, wouldn't luring it out hurt the students?"

Wang Daping asked worriedly, "Our school has nearly 10,000 students. If things go wrong, people could die."

Xu Yuan did not answer, because he did not know how much energy the pubic louse would have, or what would happen after it appeared.

These were just things he'd read about in books; he'd never actually seen a pubic louse, let alone subdued one.

Seeing Xu Yuan hesitate, Wang Daping stammered, "Why don't we just ignore it for now and tell the students to stay away from here?"

"Should we figure something out when the students are off campus during holidays?"

"That's one way," Xu Yuan said thoughtfully. "I'm just afraid we don't understand it, and some people might not be able to wait."

"Who said you were the one who kept this fish?"

"We'll have someone keep watch nearby, so that if we happen to catch that person, we can also catch the culprit."

Xu Yuan listened to them without saying anything more.

It seems that this is the only option at present.

To catch pubic catfish, you need to cultivate your skills in the arts; these things aren't something you can just get easily.

Whether we can find it or not is one thing, but when we will find it is another.

"What if the dog gets cornered and does something rash?"

Jing Shan spoke in a low voice: "If the person we keep finds out that we have discovered his secret, he will start to step up his actions."

"If they really use some kind of demonic power against us, wouldn't the school be in trouble?"

"Even with all the teachers and Senior Brother Xu here, what will happen to all these students?"

"That makes sense."

Yunhe stroked his beard and stepped forward: "I suggest we solve this once and for all, lure it out, and take it down."

"It's not that simple."

Xu Yuan also wanted to solve the problem, but reality didn't allow it: "Just take the example of writing poems about flowers and plants; they're hard to find."

"Taking action against it will only provoke it, and the entire school and surrounding area may suffer."

"Poems about flowers and grasses?"

Yunhe squinted and suddenly remembered something: "I think I've heard of this before."

"That's right, it's called Yin Hua Cao. I saw it at Ma Erlou's house."

He treasured this thing, saying that money couldn't buy it.

"You really saw it?" Seeing a glimmer of hope, Xu Yuan stared intently at Yun He.

"If we can really get our hands on this, things will be much easier."

"Who is this Ma Erlou?"

"He's a collector, specializing in odd and unusual things."

He's just incredibly stingy, only taking in and never giving out.

Getting him to produce that won't be easy.

Yunhe gestured for Lu Da to hand him his phone: "I'll call him first and see what he thinks."
