Chapter 561 - 561 Danger
561 Danger
Because of this, Su Xiaolu got to know many plants.
When she was tired, she stopped to rest. Zhou Zhi started a fire. She hunted and buried what she couldn’t finish under the tree to nourish the island in the future.
After walking in the deep forest for a few days, Su Xiaolu was certain that there was no danger there. She had never seen any predator-type ferocious beasts, apart from them.
As she hunted, the animals became vigilant.!!
At night, they ate rabbit meat. Su Xiaolu nibbled on the rabbit’s leg. She sighed. “Fourth Brother, if animals and living beings could speak, what do you think they’re talking about now?”
Zhou Zhi smiled. “If they could speak, they would say that there are two long-haired monsters in their hometown that specialize in eating small animals.”
“Haha, that’s right. They’ve all become vigilant. Now that they’ve heard the commotion, they won’t be curious and come to see us. They’ll all hide far away. When I go hunting, if the noise is loud, they’ll run away when they hear me. If there’s a language between animals, it’ll definitely be passed down by word of mouth. There are two terrifying long-haired monsters that specialize in picking fat and cute animals.”
Su Xiaolu was amused at the thought. When they arrived on the island, those small animals had never seen a stranger and did not know what vigilance was.
Even if they saw them, they would not hide too far away. Some would even approach to take a look at them.
However, when she raised the knife, the little animals were frightened and vigilant.
It was because they would lose their lives if they were not vigilant.
It was clearly a deserted island, but Su Xiaolu felt that she had gained weight.
The animals on this island had tender meat and were very delicious. Moreover, they also had spiritual energy.
Actually, she had already secretly stored a lot of it in the Space.
Zhou Zhi also laughed.
At night, the two of them slept close to each other.
Su Xiaolu slept soundly. She might never know that he could not bear to close his eyes many times. He could look at her quietly for a long time.
It was late June and the weather was hot. Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi had also walked all over the island and could not find any other way out. After returning to the starting point, Su Xiaolu began to cut and prepare to build ships with Zhou Zhi.
After a long day, Su Xiaolu yawned. Zhou Zhi said gently, “Xiaolu, we will definitely find a way out.”
It had been more than two months since they landed on this island. He was afraid that Su Xiaolu would be in a bad mood, although she never showed it.
Su Xiaolu waved her hand. “I believe in Fourth Brother. I’m so sleepy. I’ll sleep first.”
She did not know how to build ships. Zhou Zhi, on the other hand, was knowledgeable. It was only a matter of time before he built a ship.
This was not something she needed to worry about. What she needed to do was to let Zhou Zhi eat more meat so that he could maintain his best condition.
It was late at night.
In a daze, Su Xiaolu heard some rustling. She immediately woke up and opened her eyes warily.
Many thorny branches extended from the ground, and they were still growing.
Su Xiaolu immediately used a stick as a weapon. She immediately called out to Zhou Zhi, “Fourth Brother, wake up.”
The beating of the stick could only temporarily suppress the growth speed of the strange thorns.
Zhou Zhi woke up and saw this situation. He did not want to drag Su Xiaolu down. Without hesitation, he said, “Xiaolu, leave quickly. Don’t worry about me.”
Su Xiaolu ignored Zhou Zhi’s words. She took the back of the chair and squatted down to pay attention to the thorns. She did not turn around. “Fourth Brother, come up. Hurry up. I won’t abandon my family.”
Hearing Su Xiaolu’s words, Zhou Zhi no longer hesitated. He propped himself up, but there was a dull pain in his palm. He looked over and realized that a thorn had already grown into his palm. He frowned and looked at Su Xiaolu, who was still protecting him, with a myriad of thoughts.
Su Xiaolu did not know Zhou Zhi’s situation. She waved her hands and left afterimages. These things seemed to know that she was not very lethal and were already a little difficult to suppress.
“Fourth Brother, hurry up.”
Su Xiaolu urged.
Zhou Zhi’s eyes were deep. He reached out and broke the thorns without hesitation. He endured the pain and climbed onto the back chair.
He was trembling in pain and sweating profusely, but he did not make a sound.
After Zhou Zhi sat down, Su Xiaolu jumped lightly and used Qinggong to fly away from this strange place. This was the first time they had encountered danger and they did not know the reason for it.
After reaching a safe place, Su Xiaolu checked that there was no problem before putting Zhou Zhi down.
When she saw Zhou Zhi, she was shocked. Zhou Zhi was already in so much pain that his face twisted and his entire body was trembling. Su Xiaolu could tell at a glance that he had been restraining himself.
“Xiaolu, don’t worry about me. Stay away from me.”
Zhou Zhi restrained the pain and even endured the trembling of his voice. However, the only thing he could not control was his pained expression from the pain.
He did not look at Su Xiaolu and lowered his head.
His situation was obviously very strange. This area was filled with uncertainties. It seemed that there was no danger because the danger had not been revealed to them. For example, now, no one knew where these strange thorns would come from and what they would eventually become.
Su Xiaolu frowned. She took out a needle bag and prepared to insert a few needles into Zhou Zhi’s acupuncture points. At the very least, she had to protect his heart meridians.
However, after the needle was inserted, the silver needle could not pierce through Zhou Zhi’s skin.
Zhou Zhi shivered, not because of the cold, but because of the pain. “Xiaolu, leave quickly. Please…”
He was afraid that she would not leave. He was afraid that his uncertain situation would hurt her. He was too afraid.
Su Xiaolu was also anxious. She took out a bottle, opened Zhou Zhi’s mouth, and poured all the pills in. However, seeing Zhou Zhi’s situation, she could only retreat first. She flew up the tree and looked at Zhou Zhi from top to bottom.
She couldn’t turn around and leave, but she couldn’t approach Zhou Zhi in this state.
Some pills were eaten by Zhou Zhi, and some fell to the ground. They were clearly expensive, but Su Xiaolu did not feel sorry at all.
Zhou Zhi curled up as if he wanted to relieve the pain. Su Xiaolu saw that his exposed arm had turned green.
And the green was spreading.
Zhou Zhi should be in pain, but he didn’t say anything.
“Fourth Brother, take your medicine. Eat as much as you can.”
Su Xiaolu tied a bottle of medicine with her belt and hung it down. These were all life-saving medicines she had collected. They were all made of medicine from the Space.
Zhou Zhi ate with trembling hands, but his condition did not improve at all.
He gradually turned green, becoming a green person.
The good news was that he didn’t seem to be in so much pain.
Zhou Zhi endured the pain and showed no signs of going crazy. Su Xiaolu came down from the tree and fed the medicine bottle to Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi looked over. Even his eyes were dark green—
“Xiaolu, don’t come near me. I’m afraid I’ll hurt you.”
Zhou Zhi’s heart trembled. Su Xiaolu was too close, so close that she did not care about her own safety.
Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “Fourth Brother won’t.”
How could he do something that he had not done despite the pain?
