Chapter 41 (Leaving the Jungle)
Zheng Qingqing also seemed to realize that this kind of argument was meaningless. After being quiet, he knelt down on one knee and pointed the dagger to Gu Chaochao's throat.
Gu Chaochao swallowed his saliva, endured the severe pain in his arm and said weakly: "Zheng Qingqing, calm down, you like Mu Shen so much, you definitely don't want him to hate you?"
"Senior Brother Shen's name is also your name. What?" Zheng Qingqing's expression was suddenly distorted, and the dagger in his hand pushed forward inadvertently, easily piercing Gu Chaochao's skin, oozing out drops of blood.
Gu Chaochao: "..." Fucking lunatic.
Seeing that she didn't speak anymore, Zheng Qingqing calmed down a little again, and his eyes began to describe her eyebrows and outlines. Not only did those eyes not make people feel fierce, but there was an alternative...
"In Senior Brother Shen's eyes, is that what you are?" She asked gently, with a natural cowardice in her eyes.
Gu Chaochao realized that she was looking at him with Shen Mushen's eyes, and was even more speechless.
"When he is with you, will he call you by your name? Or just call your master?" Zheng Qingqing asked again, "He will bite your flesh and blood, hang you with a rope, and then whip your body. Is it?"
Gu Chaochao: "..." How many tricks have you played with Wu Wen? !
Probably because Zheng Qingqing's voice was too bewitching, she couldn't help but make up for it, and then she had goosebumps: "I and Mu Shen are not the kind of relationship you think, we are just master and apprentice."
Zheng Qingqing slightly Startled, his expression twisted when he came to understand: "You mean, Senior Brother Shen has always been in love and can't get it?"
"...Nothing! He doesn't have that kind of feeling for me at all!" Noticing that she was going crazy again, Gu Chaochao explained, She silently settled on the sand on the ground with her uninjured hand, and then threw it away when she was unprepared.
Zheng Qingqing screamed, and before she could react, she snatched the dagger.
The situation reversed in an instant, Gu Chaochao held the dagger, pointed it at her throat, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "You are lucky, I am not going to kill, you can continue to breathe now."
Zheng Qingqing peeled off the gentle In disguise, he stared at Gu Chaochao viciously and morbidly: "Why are you so good, why does he only see you in his eyes, why does he want to like you! Why, why can't he look at me..." As
she spoke, she showed a face pain.
"...If you hadn't helped Wu Wen back then, he wouldn't have lost his spiritual roots, but now you're asking me why I can't look at you?" Gu Chaochao only thought it was absurd, "How big is your face? Such a problem."
Zheng Qingqing was stunned, and looked at her blankly: "When I treat him well, he doesn't want to look at me, so I want to treat him a little bit worse, to see if he will notice me... Could it be? Am I wrong?"
"A huge mistake." Gu Chaochao was expressionless.
Zheng Qingqing's eyes were red: "But it's all wrong, and I can't do it all over again..."
Gu Chaochao really didn't want to watch the villain's self-awakening drama, and was about to stab her with a tooth for a tooth, when the ground suddenly began to tremble. She was stunned at first, but quickly realized that another beast passed by.
She got up immediately and was about to hide in a tree when she heard Zheng Qingqing muttering: "You are right, even if I kill you, he will soon forget me after taking revenge, and he will think about it again in the future. I will only think of you."
"But if I was buried in the same beast as you, when he recalled it again, would he think of me together?"
Gu Chaochao was stunned for a moment, but he heard it before he could react. She started screaming.
"Are you crazy?!" Gu Chaochao's scalp was about to explode, and when she got the dagger back, she would cut off her vocal cords, but before she could do it, the ground shook more and more violently, accompanied by a roar.
Zheng Qingqing's eyes were scarlet, screaming and pounced on Gu Chaochao. Gu Chaochao suddenly turned to his side, avoided and then ran wildly forward. Zheng Qingqing chased after him as desperately as he could.
...Damn, is this mission going to end in such a brutal way? As soon as Gu Chaochao came up with this idea, he stumbled on his feet, and the whole person jumped out because of inertia.
The beast was getting closer and closer, and she could even feel its breathing. Falling at this time was equivalent to self-destruction. She closed her eyes in despair and simply waited for the mission to fail.
However, in the next instant, instead of falling to the ground, she fell into a solid chest.
Gu Chaochao was stunned for a moment, and when he opened his eyes, Shen Mushen had already hugged her and hid behind the tree, covering her mouth at the same time.
Zheng Qingqing saw Shen Mushen's figure, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, screamed and rushed towards them, but before he ran to the tree, he was swallowed by the beast.
Gu Chaochao listened to the clear chewing sound and swallowed silently. Although his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, his whole body was shaking because of nervousness, but he still didn't dare to make a slight movement.
When the fierce beast came just now, it clearly heard two voices, but now that it only ate one person, it was clear that the other person must be hiding. It roared in dissatisfaction, looked around for traces of living people, paused for a moment when it found the back of the tree, and sniffed the tree a few times, the stench from its mouth almost made Gu Chaochao faint.
Shen Mushen's whole body was tense, and the arm that held her became more and more forceful.
After a long time, the beast turned and left in dissatisfaction, and soon disappeared.
"Okay..." Shen Mushen said in a hoarse voice.
Gu Chaochao suddenly fell to the ground with weak hands and feet, the pain and shock made her almost speechless at this moment.
Shen Mu looked deeply at her who kept her head down, and suddenly burst into anger: "Why didn't you just kill her? Why let her attract beasts?"
"I didn't let her go, but I didn't have time," Gu Chaochao explained weakly, " As for not killing her, it's because the last level of the secret realm is the spring that can restore your spiritual roots, it..."
Halfway through her words, she suddenly lost her voice. Gu Chaochao paused, realizing that this was a secret realm that did not allow her to reveal secrets.
Gu Chaochao paused for a moment, then spoke again: "In short, if I kill her, at the last stage, I will die."
"So you would rather die now?" Shen Mu was so angry that his eyes were red, "Gu Chaochao, why are you doing this? Stupid!"
"...Who are you talking about?" Gu Chaochao was speechless.
"What I'm talking about is you, you're stupid! You know that she has many tricks, but you still let her die, that's stupid!" Shen Mu deeply remembered the scene just now, and he lost all reason, "What are you afraid of, the big deal is that we don't go out. The secret realm is here for a lifetime, do you know how to choose!"
Gu Chaochao laughed: "No big or small."
Shen Mushen was about to get angry, but suddenly found that she had been keeping a movement for a long time without moving, in his heart A bad premonition arose, and he hurriedly knelt down on one knee to help her: "Is it somewhere..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw her blood-soaked arm and a wound on her throat, and he instantly lost his voice.
"I'm fine, don't be afraid." After Gu Chaochao finished speaking, he immediately passed out.
"Master!"
Gu Chaochao lost consciousness for a long time, and when she gradually recovered, she still faintly felt that she had failed the mission and restarted again.
"Don't sleep when you wake up." A
familiar voice rang in his ears, Gu Chaochao moved his eyelids, and it took a long time to open his eyes with difficulty.
At this moment, she was carried by Shen Mushen and was walking slowly forward.
The memory gradually took over, and she looked around, but didn't see the third person.
"Don't look at it, they are all sleeping together now, not going with us." Shen Mushen's voice was a little hoarse.
Gu Chaochao was stunned for a moment: "How long have I passed out?"
"It's almost six hours," Shen Mu took a deep breath and didn't look back.
Six hours... After Gu Chaochao was surprised, his first reaction was: "Wu Cai, they didn't trouble you, right?"
"What right do they have to trouble me?" Shen Mushen sneered, "My own people don't care, they will harm you. They were seriously injured, so I should trouble them."
"So you did?" Gu Chaochao was curious.
Shen Mushen calmly said: "I found them, and beat their father and son."
Gu Chaochao: "..."
"I listened to your words and saved their lives." Shen Mushen thought of Wu Cai's bruised noses and swollen faces, and she was in a mood. Slightly better.
Gu Chaochao twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.
Shen Mu was silent, and then asked, "Does my arm still hurt?"
He didn't say anything, but Gu Chaochao remembered it, and groaned in pain.
Shen Mushen was a little helpless: "There's no way it hurts, the elixir is useless, the mortal's golden sore medicine can only stop the bleeding and has no other use."
"I'm fine..." After Gu Chaochao said, a gust of wind blew, and she hugged her tightly. She touched Shen Mushen's neck, only to realize later that the two people's coats were put together again, but this time she was wearing it alone, while Shen Mushen was only wearing one undergarment.
She frowned immediately: "Shen Mushen, let me down, let's rest first."
"No rest, the trees here are a lot sparser, and after a short walk, we'll go out," Shen Mushen walked with her back for a long time, At this moment, my breathing is a little unsteady, "As long as you can go out, you can be healed by spiritual power, and your arm will not hurt."
Gu Chaochao took a deep breath: "You put me down, and I will give you the coat."
"I'm not cold . ," Shen Mu was helpless, "I've been walking for a few hours, and I'm still sweating."
"What are you sweating, you'll lose your temperature right away, you know!"
Gu Chaochao was irritable, and was about to say something to him when he suddenly exclaimed: "It's here!" After saying that, he staggered and fell to the ground.
Gu Chaochao was startled, hurriedly broke free and jumped down, supporting him before he was about to fall.
Touching his body temperature again, it was obviously extremely low. Gu Chaochao took off the two coats without thinking, and wrapped them directly around him. He wanted to rub his body, but after feeling his weak pulse, he still gritted his teeth and hugged his armpit from behind, struggling. Destined to walk out of the jungle that is not far away.
Without the blessing of spiritual power, it was a challenge to drag a man who was much heavier than him forward. Gu Chaochao's face flushed with force, and his arm that had solidified broke once again, and soon dyed Shen Mushen's clothes red. .
She gritted her teeth and dragged forward step by step, finally dragging the person out of the jungle.
In just an instant, a powerful spiritual power erupted in her body, and Shen Mushen, who was originally pale, began to visibly turn red.
Gu Chaochao heaved a sigh of relief, realizing that this level had finally been overcome.
