Chapter 773 - 773 Goodbye, Fourth Brother
773 Goodbye, Fourth Brother
“If she’s no longer alive one day and she has descendants, this promise will still stand. Ask her if she agrees.”
The old king pondered for a moment and added.
The information sent back by the clansmen said that this little girl was very extraordinary.
They didn’t know enough, but the more powerful people they befriended, the better.!!
There were not many opportunities to owe favors like this. It was rare to meet one.
If Zhou Zhi died here, it would be very bad for them. After all, they had just formed an alliance.
However, if Zhou Zhi was dead, it doesn’t mean that all the humans were dead. The other humans also knew that Zhou Zhi’s death had nothing to do with the fish people. Even if the humans were angry, they could not vent their anger at them.
At most, they would not want to do their business.
Business was consensual. Even the humans had things they were unwilling to sell.
Qing Xu nodded. “I’ll tell her now.”
When Qing Xu turned back, Zhou Zhi happened to wake up.
Su Xiaolu was feeding him, so Qing Xu did not disturb her and waited at the side.
Zhou Zhi ate very slowly. With the soup in his mouth, he found it difficult to swallow. He only had the urge to vomit.
However, he resisted it with all his might. He swallowed it bit by bit. After fifteen minutes, he only swallowed a mouthful of soup before he could no longer swallow it.
Su Xiaolu did not force him.
Zhou Zhi looked at Qing Xu angrily and said, “What’s the matter?”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi’s pale face. Because he was weak, his lower body was empty and no vines could grow out.
The wood mark on his wrist also turned from green to brown, looking listless.
Su Xiaolu covered Zhou Zhi with a blanket and said gently, “It’s nothing. He just came to see you. He was afraid that you would die. Go to sleep, Fourth Brother.”
When she called him Fourth Brother, her tone was delicate and careful.
Zhou Zhi smiled and closed his eyes.
He was extremely tired. His eyelids closed and he did not want to open them again. His body seemed to weigh a thousand catties. In just a few seconds, he fell into a deep sleep.
Only then did Su Xiaolu get up and walk to Qing Xu.
Qing Xu slowly conveyed his intentions in human language. After saying that, he waited quietly for Su Xiaolu to answer. He thought that Su Xiaolu would consider it for a long time.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Su Xiaolu nodded. “I agree.”
Qing Xu looked at Su Xiaolu in surprise. He did not expect her to agree so easily.
After such a long time, he finally understood the relationship between Su Xiaolu and the others. He thought that they were just friends. For the sake of friends, Su Xiaolu might agree, but she should consider it carefully.
However, in just a few seconds, Qing Xu reacted. He nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll make the arrangements.”
Qing Xu looked at Zhou Zhi, who was already fast asleep, and got up to leave. Zhou Zhi was thin and out of shape now, but his bone structure was still very good-looking. Miss Su was so good to him, she must like him.
Qing Xu sighed. It seemed like he didn’t have a chance.
The spiritual liquid was quickly sent over. With sufficient spiritual liquid, Zhou Zhi’s body was supported.
Although he was losing weight every day, the poison in his legs was also disappearing bit by bit.
After 50 days of detoxification, when the last drop of black liquid dripped from the tip of the needle, Su Xiaolu checked Zhou Zhi’s breathing. He was still alive. He had finally survived.
It was all thanks to the spiritual liquid of the fish race. Without this thing, he might really not have survived this time.
After the poison was cleared, Zhou Zhi’s spirit recovered day by day.
The amount of time he spent awake also became normal day by day.
When he could eat normally, Su Xiaolu watched him finish the food. She was about to speak when Zhou Zhi spoke first. “Xiaolu, what month is it now?”
“It’s the 12th of July.”
Su Xiaolu replied.
They had lived at the bottom of the sea for more than two months.
“Xiaolu, what was the final outcome of that Immortal Supremacy?”
Zhou Zhi asked softly.
When Su Xiaolu was detoxifying Zhou Zhi, she had already said it, but he might not remember. When he asked, Su Xiaolu naturally said, “That Immortal Supremacy’s demonic poison was cured. His wife who lost her memory went traveling. The two of them experienced some things together and ended up together. It was a perfect ending.”
“That’s not bad.”
Zhou Zhi smiled. All novels could have a good ending. It’s precisely because real people could not pursue such a good ending that they wrote about good endings in the books.
“When are you leaving?”
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and asked.
“Tomorrow, your body will also recover. Next, you just need to eat and rest well. It won’t be long before you can completely recover.”
Su Xiaolu wanted to tell Zhou Zhi that she was leaving, but Zhou Zhi asked first, so she said it.
Zhou Zhi wanted to stay with the fish people to study. He had something to do, and so did she. It was time to part ways.
“Okay, then I’ll send you off tomorrow.”
Zhou Zhi smiled.
Su Xiaolu nodded and got up to return to her room.
Looking at Su Xiaolu’s back, Zhou Zhi sighed.
At night, he soaked himself in the bathtub and looked at his broken lower limbs. His eyes were deep. Their color was no longer bruised and black. They were the same color as his body. They looked healthy.
Even the section that had grown out was perfect. Touching it with his hands, it was hard to imagine that it had once been amputated, because there was no cross section, no scar. It was as if it had been born like this. It was smooth and round.
It had been a long time since the wound, which used to hurt often, hurt.
In three years, his legs would definitely grow back.
On the 13th of July, Su Xiaolu left the fish people.
Zhou Zhi waved at her and said softly, “Xiaolu, see you next time.”
Su Xiaolu smiled. “Goodbye, Fourth Brother.”
With the conch pendant given by the fish people, she could swim freely in the water and didn’t have to go up to take a breath.
Su Xiaolu left the fish people’s land and got on the boat. Looking at the patches of fog, she was calm. There was abundant spiritual energy on the surface of the sea, so she began to concentrate on absorbing it.
On July 20, Su Xiaolu returned to shore.
She went straight to the small courtyard and flew over the wall. Old Wu was practicing his sword.
Su Xiaolu jumped down and ran over to hug him. “Master, I missed you so much.”
Old Wu pursed his lips. “How rude. Let go first.”
Su Xiaolu smiled and let go.
Old Wu looked at Su Xiaolu and said earnestly, “Girl, after this matter, it’s time for you to really train alone. Your Master Gui You and I are also preparing to travel around. Tonight, let’s have a reunion dinner and set off tomorrow.”
“Your Master Gui You is waiting for you to become his disciple. Let me make it clear first. In your heart, I have to be the first. He can only be the second, understand?”
Old Wu said solemnly. He had found such a good disciple first. If Gui You wanted to share her now, he had to be second.
Su Xiaolu nodded with a smile. “Yes, yes, yes. In my heart, you’re my number one Master.”
As Su Xiaolu spoke, she looked around. Very good. Master Gui You was not around. The old man liked to be jealous. What could she do? Of course, she would dote on him. Anyway, Master Gui You would not ask about this.
