Parker ran to the edge of the water and said after scooping out the oil covered-water, "How are you going to scoop out all the oil with so much floating on top? Forget it, let's just go back and sleep."
"No way!" Bai Qingqing objected. "I've thought of a solution earlier on. We'll be able to scoop it out."
Bai Qingqing didn't dare to look at Bluepool as she retrieved the tools she prepared in advance from behind the rock.
One tree branch shaped like a crescent moon, one stone bowl used for eating, and one oil bucket.
The tree branch was half the length of the waterhole. Bai Qingqing placed it on the water surface and pulled it inwards, and the oil was thus removed. The tree branch was very slim, and one only had to exert a slight strength and it would curl into a circle. The layer of oil trapped within turned visibly thicker in no time.
Bai Qingqing held up the tree branch with both hands and asked for help from Parker, who was standing beside her. "Parker, help me scoop it."
