Lu Yun had just nodded with a smile when suddenly a slap landed on his head. Ma Cuihua laughed and scolded, 'How heartless you are! You really thought of this! Can the water leeches even be placed there? What if one gets embedded into your aunt's flesh once you put it in—how will you ever extract it?' Usually, the water bugs leave a mild sensation upon being bitten, and one doesn’t feel much pain. But the real trouble arises when they burrow deep into the flesh—without drinking enough blood, they simply won’t come out. For spots elsewhere, one can easily press firmly with the soles of the shoes and manage to dislodge them. However, if, as Lu Yun suggested, the water bugs are placed into the woman’s water curtain cave, the tender flesh there is precisely what the bugs love. Once one burrows in, it becomes nearly impossible to remove them. Should the blood be completely drawn off from that area, the once plump, soft spot—originally shaped like a small loaf—would shrink and sag. Then… Ma Cuihua couldn’t imagine what would come next. She shook her head vigorously in refusal, insisting that even if she didn’t play this game today, she wouldn’t allow Lu Yun to place the water bugs there. Lu Yun rubbed his temples, looking frustrated: “I only asked to suggest it, not to make it a point. I just wanted to make you more comfortable. Why are you so angry with me? This slap has left me dazed.” Ma Cuihua scolded: “You Lu Yun felt a sudden chill. His own idea had already been wildly outlandish—he hadn’t expected Ma Cuihua to understand the principle of “treating the person as you would treat yourself,” let alone to suggest that he place the leeches directly into her bird’s tubes. It seemed his proposal was now doomed. With a friendly gesture, Lu Yun swept his corn cob back and forth across Ma Cuihua’s towering peaks and the cascading water curtain behind, smiling and saying, “Cuihua Aunt, don’t be angry with me. I was just thinking, when you’re flying, if I gently let the leeches move inside, that sensation might send you into a frenzy. I didn’t mean anything more than that.” "Huh… huh…" Ma Cuihua panted, half-leaning against Land Yun and saying, "What's wrong? Isn't it impossible to get it out? I've always said you're such a clumsy boy—always wanting to make me look foolish. How could you possibly get that thing down there? It's such a ridiculous idea of yours!" As she finished speaking, whether it was due to Land Yun's growing impatience or simply because Ma Cuihua was unusually sensitive, her soft, low hum suddenly rose several notches in volume. "Madam Cuihua, isn't there any possibility at all that I might not be able to do it?" Lu Yun slightly furrowed his brows and said to Ma Cuihua. Ma Cuihua chuckled and replied, "I don't see how you could possibly manage—why don't you try it yourself first? Just follow what I suggested earlier and see if you can actually extract the leech from the eye of your staff." As though recalling the scene where Lu Yun had placed the leech into his staff's eye and then vigorously stamped the solid staff with the sole of his shoe, Lu Yun glanced at her, feeling unconvinced, and coldly remarked, "Cuihua aunt, let's settle this beforehand: if I can successfully insert the leech into your staff and then retrieve it without any trouble, you mustn't be afraid." At that moment, Ma Cuihua was feeling particularly delighted—her body had been comfortably massaged by Lu Yun using the corn husk, and her verbal exchanges had left him feeling embarrassed—every comfort flowing into her now, as she responded to Lu Yun's words with a series of delighted exclamations. Lu Yun chuckled softly, his mind racing, not believing he couldn't come up with a way to outwit her. He swiftly waved the corn husk in his hand and continued to think of strategies
