Guarding the Reservoir? What I Guard is the River of Time!

Before transmigrating, Su Mu guarded the reservoir, holding five insurances and one housing fund, fishing every day, and living a life of lying down, but during a wild fishing trip, he touched a hi...

Chapter 269: The cause and effect that cannot be drawn, she who cannot be saved

The voice was soft, but it fell clearly into the ears of the little fox.

She slowly raised her head and looked at the man, her eyes flickering, a little confused, and a little hopeful, as if he was the only ray of light in the deep and cold abyss, at least in her eyes, it was extremely dazzling at this moment.

Su Mu lowered his head and looked at the white-haired woman on the ice bed. He focused his energy and practiced his skills. Powerful spiritual power burst out from his palms, directly penetrating the thick layer of ice and gathering on the woman's body.

In an instant, the white-haired woman was covered in white fairy light. Su Mu's spiritual power was so strong that the surrounding ice beds were vibrating.

Su Mu was searching, searching for any remaining vitality in the white-haired woman. Even if he found just a little bit, even a tiny trace, Su Mu would have a way to save her.

The whole process lasted for an hour. Fortunately, Su Mu's foundation was so sufficient that other people at the same level would have already been exhausted by this high-intensity spiritual power infusion.

Su Mu was shocked to find that the white-haired woman's internal organs, every tendon and vein in her body, and every inch of flesh and blood were intact, without any damage.

There were no visible scars on his body, as if nothing had happened.

But there was no sign of life, which made Su Mu very confused. Logically speaking, even if she died of natural causes, after being buried for such a long time, her organs would have decayed to some extent, not to mention decay.

But no, all the organs of this white-haired woman, including her dantian, were intact!

Su Mu even suspected that the white-haired woman was not dead, but fell into a deep sleep.

However, if he fell into a deep sleep, it is impossible that he would be completely lifeless. Even if there were hidden means, it would be impossible that no traces could be found.

The person was indeed dead, but Su Mu was really confused about how and why he died.

After trying without success, Su Mu also withdrew his spiritual power.

With a wave of his hand, he took out several kinds of medicine. These medicines were all miraculous medicines for healing, and each one was not simple.

The next second, Su Mu refined all these medicinal herbs into a green spiritual power, which all gathered on the white-haired woman.

However, this level of medicine, even if used on a pile of bones, can make new flesh and blood grow and bring the bones back to life.

But when used on the white-haired woman, it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, not even causing a ripple.

This is so weird

Su Mu tried various methods and used all his means, but none of them worked.

At this moment, the little fox was waiting very quietly by the side. After seeing Su Mu fail again and again and sigh again and again, she of course understood and knew the good intentions of this man.

But, this is too difficult.

At this time, the little fox made up his mind and walked to Su Mu step by step. The diamond mark on his forehead emitted a stream of light and fell into the palm of Su Mu, turning into a red thing that looked like an inner elixir.

Holding this red inner elixir, he could feel a very strange and powerful energy contained in it.

"Is this for me?"

Su Mu looked at the little fox and asked.

"Hmm..." The little fox lowered its head quietly, rubbed Su Mu's leg with its tail, then walked step by step to the ice bed above the white-haired woman and continued to lie down.

This thing is a gift from the little fox to Su Mu, and it is also a token of gratitude to him. Although Su Mu failed to save the woman, the little fox knows that he has tried his best and paid a lot.

This inner elixir is the most precious thing she has in her body.

After being taken out, the little fox became very weak.

Su Mu looked at the inner pill in his hand and was silent for a while.

Then, with a wave of his hand, the inner elixir turned into a stream of light and flew into the forehead of the little fox.

Seeing this, the little fox slowly raised his head and looked at Su Mu in a daze.

"I'm not helping you for the treasure."

Su Mu is a selfish person. He often acts after careful consideration and based on his own interests.

But he was not a heartless person. He tried to help the little fox save her master, not for any treasure, but simply because he felt sorry for her and was touched by her silently guarding here.

Because Su Mu lives here, this place, including this river, can be said to be all his territory. When he sees these poor little animals, these poor lives, on his own territory, he can't help but feel pity for them.

It can also be regarded as a way to maintain order in the river. This is the excuse Su Mu made for himself.

At this moment, Su Mu looked at the ice bed under his feet, and a guess suddenly emerged in his mind.

Her body has been frozen in this ice bed for so long.

The body is intact, without any sign of decay. It can be judged that the ice formed by river water has a very strong anti-corrosion effect.

So, Su Mu had an idea.

Then, he used his magical powers, and the water from the main river channel gathered in front of him, under the shocked gaze of the little fox.

Su Mu used new river water to reinforce the ice bed and re-solidify it.

Moreover, after Su Mu used the "solidification" magic to reinforce it, this ice bed would no longer melt, and her body would be preserved forever.

This is the only thing Su Mu can do for this little fox.

The little fox saw the whole scene. A hint of hope appeared in her pupils, and there seemed to be a little light in her dull eyeballs.

"She is dead."

"You don't have to stay with her like this. You have your own freedom and you can live your life again."

At this point, Su Mu was about to turn around and leave, but then he thought of something and continued, "If one day I have that ability, I will help you save her."

"So, you don't have to wait here."

Maybe one day, when he really reaches a very high position and cultivates to a certain level and has that ability, if that day really comes, Su Mu might come here to help this little fox save her master.

But, I’m afraid that by that day, the little fox had already died.

After all, that day should be very, very far away.

However, in order to free the little fox who was waiting for him, Su Mu still said these words.

After saying that, Su Mu turned and left. He had already wasted too much time and had helped in every way he could. He would put a comma on this cause and effect and see if he could put a full stop to it in the future.

Walked out of the wooden door.

Those little groundhogs and little brown bears also stood there, watching Su Mu leave.

As he walked out, the walls of trees that had just blocked Su Mu's progress were all automatically unlocked, leaving a path for Su Mu.

As he walked, Su Mu heard a rustling and cautious sound of footsteps coming from behind him.

He also stopped and turned around.
