Chapter 15 Sister, Don’t Be Anxious

Finally he died again.

Because the sand was swallowed so quickly, she was swallowed whole before the heroine arrived.

This method of death by suffocation refreshed Gu Jinli's No.1 most unbearable way of death.

The good news was that because of her death, her limbs began to weaken and she lay flat in the quicksand, which actually slowed down her burial speed to a certain extent.

The bad news is that she resurrected very quickly, and once again experienced the pain of being buried in sand and unable to breathe.

"Gu Jinli."

When she was on the verge of death, the heroine's voice was almost like the sound of nature.

Gu Jinli only felt a huge suction force coming from her body, and then her head popped out with a "bang" just like a garlic sprout being forcibly pulled out.

“Cough cough cough!”

When my mouth and nose came into contact with the fresh air, they instantly felt burning and painful.

Before Gu Jinli could catch her breath, she heard Chen Chigui shouting anxiously, "Hurry up and grab this vine!"

vine?

The sand in his eyes made him feel painful and sore. Gu Jinli quickly looked around and saw a dried vine covered with sharp thorns at hand.

At this point there was no time to think about anything else, Gu Jinli grabbed the vine without hesitation, and even wrapped it around her arm to prevent herself from falling.

"hiss."

The sharp thorns on the vines cut his palms and skin, causing blood to flow out. The pain made Gu Jinli's face grim.

But she held the vine tightly, as if she was holding all her hope.

"Sister, I'm going to pull the vine out now, and you slowly adjust your posture and pull it out."

Also holding the vine, Shen Chigui at the other end began to move.

At this time, Gu Jinli was crawling in the sand pit, with most of her body buried in the sand, and she was still moving down.

Just now, Shen Chigui used the ghost energy to barely pull her upper body out a little.

This allowed her arms to stick out of the sand pit, but the area below her arms was buried inside.

"good."

Naturally, he understood that this was the limit. Gu Jinli recalled the quicksand self-rescue method he had seen on the Internet before.

Start to relax your body and let your lower body slowly 'float' up.

This process is extremely slow, and you have to move slowly and gently, moving up little by little.

I don’t know how long it took, but Gu Jinli finally felt her legs breaking through the sand and gradually exposed to the air.

not enough.

It's not enough.

"Sister, don't be impatient."

Pulling the vines from a distance, Shen Chigui said calmly: "It can come out."

If you want to leave this quicksand pit, there is no other way except to be patient.

Gu Jinli knew that the situation was much better now.

…

I don’t know how long it took, but by the time Gu Jinli completely rescued herself from the quicksand pit, the temperature outside had already dropped to zero.

My fingers were frozen and stiff from holding the vines for a long time, and the blood dried up and coagulated. When I let go of the vines, it even felt like a layer of skin was torn off.

“It’s so cold.”

Putting her frozen hands in front of her mouth and blowing on them, Gu Jinli noticed Chen Chigui's abnormality at a glance.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Even though he had climbed out, the man was still standing far away, holding onto the vine, without even moving.

"Hello? Shen Chigui!"

With a frown, Gu Jinli hurried over to take a look, and found that the heroine had fainted while standing.

With his eyes closed and his face pale, Shen Chigui's hands remained in the posture of pulling the vines, but he was obviously unconscious and was just standing there.

"???"

This won't fall down?

Gu Jinli was convinced.

"I lost to you."

He rubbed his fingers and tried to grab the heroine's wrist, preparing to pull the vine out of her hand, but after his fingertips touched her, the abnormal body temperature made Gu Jinli secretly frightened.

No, why is it so hot?

"!"

Subconsciously, she reached out and touched the heroine's forehead, and the scorching temperature was indeed not her illusion.

Shen Chigui had a fever and his whole body was hot.

Come to think of it, the heroine was a little sick herself, and she had been exposed to the cold wind for so long in order to save herself, she would have been unable to bear it a long time ago.

"Because you saved me."

With a slight sigh, Gu Jinli gently pulled out the vine from the heroine's hand and picked up the person who had fainted long ago.

The hot body in my arms brings up waves of heat, as warm as a stove.

Gu Jinli was very cold, so she took this opportunity to warm herself up.

An incense stick later, Gu Jinli came to the oasis carrying the unconscious heroine.

It is more like a ruin than an oasis.

She couldn't see clearly because she was far away, but when she got closer, Gu Jinli realized that this was an oasis that had dried up long ago, and there was no trace of green at all.

The plants have died, the stones have weathered, and even the former lakeside has become a sand pit. This is an oasis that has been dead for a long time and is devoid of any life.

"You won't get burned out like this, will you?"

Muttering and shivering, he lit a fire. Gu Jinli took out a kettle and a dagger, cut open the corner of his clothes to wet them, and began to cool down the heroine physically.

She checked the heroine's storage bag and found only a small amount of food and water, but no medicine or weapons.

This dagger was the only one she found on the heroine.

“…”

Now that things have come to this, let’s just leave it to fate!

Simple physical cooling was the limit. Gu Jinli took a sip of water, took out food from the storage bag and started eating.

Honestly, it would be better if the heroine was unconscious. It would be much more pleasing to the eye than when she was awake, and you can fiddle with her without making yourself angry.

"I hope you will always be this good."

After poking the cheek of the person in his arms, Gu Jinli quickly finished his food and added some firewood to the fire.

I've been busy all day today, so let's just leave it like this for now.

Leaning back slightly against the dead tree trunk, she gently closed her eyes.

…

…

Does getting younger mean your mind also gets younger?

When Shen Chigui woke up, he didn't react for a long time.

At this moment, she was being held tightly in Gu Jinli's arms, looking completely defenseless.

A piece of cloth slipped from her forehead and she caught it with one hand. Feeling the remaining dampness on it, she immediately understood what it was.

This person... didn't take the opportunity to kill me, but tried to help me cool down.

And I actually fainted without any preparation.

That's totally out of control.

How could she go to such lengths for a capturer?

It must have been influenced.

“…”

Shen Chigui struggled out of Gu Jinli's arms and glanced at the sky. It was already dawn.

Now is a good time to investigate this oasis...

She remembers...

“Huh~”

Because he was too close, Shen Chigui could hear the warm breathing and the man's heartbeat clearly.

She didn't even need to look up to see Gu Jinli's slightly lowered head and her sleeping face that looked a little peaceful as she slept soundly.

To be honest, Gu Jinli is not ugly at all.

She has a very pleasing face. She always looks extremely obedient and innocent, which makes people feel pity for her.

But Chen Chigui knew that this was only on the surface.

How could a creator who can create himself be so simple? Even if he is docile, he must be pretending.

So many times, Chen Chigui would deliberately torment that person in an attempt to force out her true self.

But apparently it has not been successful.

"Which side is real?" She was a little curious.

That's right.

What did you just think of?

Hmm...

Forgot.

Shen Chigui scratched his hair.

…
