The live broadcast room was as lively as ever, but it didn't affect the two people who were preparing to wash their black boots.

The black boots have not been properly cleaned since coming back. Now that the weather is cold, this guy spends most of his time finding a place to stay in the living room.

But it may be that the pool in the backyard is frozen, and it can be said to be a dirty batch now.

After Shen Nan adjusted the water temperature, he also took the brush from the side, and the two of them pressed the black boots and started cleaning.

With a body like Black Boots, it would be okay if it lived in the water. It can be effectively cleaned with the help of natural sand and gravel.

However, if they are kept in a rescue station without human help, it is easy to cause infection if the nail scales are not cleaned for too long.

Infections in terrestrial animals are a big problem, let alone turtles that cannot live without water.

However, for black boots, this kind of cleaning is relatively worry-free, you don’t have to do it often, and there is nothing troublesome about brushing.

After Wen Wanwan painted a few nails, he slapped the black boots chewing the pumpkin.

"How can you be so dirty!"

Shen Nan also nodded with understanding.

"It's really a bit too dirty."

The water in the backyard is now frozen into ice. When this guy needs water, he simply soaks in the large tub prepared at the rescue station.

It was almost impossible to tell how much dirt was stained on the black armor plates on their bodies, but today, when they were brushed with warm water, large swaths of dirt made both of their faces darken.

Black Boots quietly tilted his head and glanced, then quickly turned around and ate the pumpkin quietly.

In fact, you can't really blame it. After all, even if the barrel is filled with warm water after the weather gets cold, you will feel a chill after touching it.

Although there is heating in the house, the cold wind blowing through the living room as soon as the door is opened is definitely not pleasant.

In other words, it hasn't been in water for a long time since the weather got cold.

After Shen Nan brushed two nail polishes again, he finally couldn't stand it any longer and silently took the cleaning fluid specifically for decontamination from the side.

"Webmaster, can I use it?"

"This doesn't work, please use dish soap."

Wen Wanwan also knew what Shen Nan was thinking. It was really difficult to clean the dirt off this guy's body simply by brushing it with a brush.

The two of them haven't even cleaned up one tenth of it for so long.

However, the cleaning fluid can definitely be used. This stuff is slightly corrosive and is definitely no problem for daily household cleaning. However, if it is used on this big guy, it will be infected with some toxins.

Wen Wanwan didn't dare to bet on whether this guy had developed poison resistance in the wild. Failure to do so could be fatal.

After replacing the dishwashing liquid, the efficiency immediately increased a lot.

While brushing, Shen Nan suddenly stopped, pressed a piece of armor with his hand and then raised his head.

"Stationmaster, it's time to change your armor, right?"

"Let me see!"

Walking to Shen Nan's side, Wen Wanwan rinsed it with water and soon discovered something unusual.

This piece of nail is indeed drier than the others, and the edges are slightly raised, which is exactly the same as the sign of armor replacement.

Looking at the area that the two men had cleaned, Wen Wanwan also made a detailed inspection.

"It's really time to change the armor. It looks like this guy is having a really good time at the aid station."

"What's next?" "Let's wash it first. I guess I won't be able to change it in winter. It's most likely spring."

The cleaning work continued again, and Wen Wanwan also explained to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"It is actually a very common thing for turtles to change their armor. When they are young, they can basically do it once a year, and even those that develop faster can do it twice a year."

"Although this big guy is now past its infancy, the rescue station has a sufficient food supply for it. It can obviously be seen that it is a lot fatter than when it first arrived."

"With adequate nutrition and a suitable environment, it is possible for adults to replace their armor."

"For this kind of scaly turtle, the appearance of new armor can effectively prevent many diseases."

"However, this situation is rare in the wild. Changing the armor of turtles is a very dangerous thing in the wild, and it can easily lead to death if you are not careful."

"The hard nails fade away, and the new nails are very fragile and cannot effectively protect the fragile body."

"This period is also called the soft armor period. Not to mention some large carnivores, even a fox or a weasel can kill them."

"The new armor takes ten to twenty days to harden and turn into harder scales during constant contact with the air. This is the completion of the armor replacement step."

"This guy ate well at the rescue station and is not in any danger. There is no need to worry too much about changing armor."

"But even though I say that, the necessary preparations still need to be made."

After thinking for a moment, Wen Wanwan quickly determined the plan.

"When the scales all over his body begin to dry up, this guy will be put in a room with a warm water pipe, a bathtub, and some extra vitamin effervescent tablets."

After hearing Wen Wanwan's words, Shen Nan nodded quickly, indicating that he had memorized it.

The scrubbing process lasted for more than two hours before this big guy was completely cleaned.

Looking at the scales that shone again, Wen Wanwan also gave it a headache.

"Go back and remember to come to me when you change your armor!"

Black Boots raised his head and glanced at Wen Wanwan, then bit his pumpkin and walked slowly towards the living room.

When cleaning up the battlefield, Wen Wanwan did not forget the audience in the live broadcast room, and also explained some knowledge about turtles.

"Actually, many people have misunderstandings about turtles. The life span of most turtles is basically not that long."

"Generally, the life span of turtles kept as pets is only fifty or sixty years at most."

"Also, animals like turtles are actually very intelligent, but they are timid by nature and it's hard to tell."

"If you have ever raised turtles, even for a year or two, you will know that they can actually easily understand human commands."

Wen Wanwan's words immediately shocked many turtle-loving viewers in the live broadcast room, and a large number of barrages emerged.

Jiajia囧kuai: [Yes, I have had that one at home for almost ten years, and now it crawls to the bedside and lets me play with it as soon as I clap my hands! 】

Muzi'er: [It's the same with the one at home. You can understand what it means with just one movement. 】

Young Master Xiaochen: [That innocent and rebellious son of mine crawls into bed in the middle of the night! 】

Looking at the lively barrage in the live broadcast room, Wen Wanwan was planning to continue popularizing science, but who would have thought that the phone rang urgently.

"Hello, Changbai Mountain Rescue Station!"

"Hello, this is the Jishi Rescue Station Headquarters. Are you Wen Wanwan?"

"It's me!" (End of Chapter)
