Chapter 70 Who do you look down on?

Xu Chuchu had used up all his spiritual power in these two attacks. One strike could make half of a person's body numb, and two strikes could make half of a person's body paralyzed. Of course, it was very tiring for him.

The officers and soldiers didn't know she was strong and were surprised that this thin little girl had so much strength. She took the opportunity to slip out.

As soon as she left Lu's house, she ran all the way towards the city gate.

"Xu Chuchu!" After a few steps, a familiar and angry voice came from behind him.

When Xu Chuchu recognized the voice, she felt a headache. She turned around and saw that it was indeed Xiao Yu. Knowing that she could not escape, she simply stopped.

"Why are you so fast?" She asked dryly to Xiao Yu who was also running towards her.

I originally thought that I would have to run at least three blocks away before the news would reach Xiao Yu.

"I should be the one asking you this!" Xiao Yu's usual scoundrel expression faded, and he looked annoyed. "You just told me to go back and rest, but you sneaked out the moment you turned the corner. You even beat me up when I wouldn't let you out. Is there something you have to avoid me for?"

Just after the two of them parted, Xiao Yu went back to think about their conversation and felt that Xu Chuchu's last sentence sounded wrong.

He suddenly said that he wanted to solve the case as soon as possible in the next few days. Could it be that he couldn't wait to leave again?

He suddenly felt uneasy and had to go out to see her, so he went there stupidly.

I didn’t expect that when I went there...it was gone!

If he hadn't run so fast, people would have been unable to catch up with him if he had been two steps later!

"I was going to go back and rest..." Xu Chuchu felt that it was difficult to argue. After thinking about it, he just rolled up his sleeves and said, "Forget it, I'll show you."

Seeing that she was about to show her arm, Xiao Yu subconsciously avoided it, but saw that the white and thin arm was covered with large and small black circle patterns, which looked weird and scary.

"What is this?!" He was about to reach out to touch it, but Xu Chuchu immediately retracted her hand and wrapped her arm tightly with her shirt again.

"It's the spider venom on 'Wawa'. I must have accidentally picked it up during the fight. I only discovered it when I got back." Xu Chuchu said, turning her back to Xiao Yu. "I won't say anymore. Time is running out. I'm going to find the antidote."

She was also worried. Her arm had started to itch a while ago, but she had never taken it seriously, thinking it was a mosquito bite. She didn't know how long it would take for the itch to take effect.

"Where are you going to find the antidote?" Xiao Yu refused to let her. Knowing she was poisoned, he seemed even angrier instead of sympathetic. "You didn't even tell me about this huge thing? Are you planning to handle it all by yourself?"

"I knew you would say that, so I kept it a secret from you. I'm going to find Sanshan Zhenren. It's useless for you to go, and it might even cause more casualties." Xu Chuchu said helplessly, "That's why I told you not to send people after him. He has a high level of cultivation and his methods are so vicious. I don't know how many people he will kill with him."

Xiao Yu snorted indignantly: "Who are you looking down on? You just know that I'm useless and a burden if I go there?"

Xu Chuchu almost couldn't explain anymore: "That's not what I meant..."

"Even if I'm a burden, I can be a coachman, right?" Xiao Yu took the horse brought by the attendant behind him. "Even if I'm a coachman, I don't look down on you. If you want to leave the city at this time, you still have to rely on me!"

With a stern face, he climbed onto his horse and held out his hand to her: "Come on, I'll take you to him. The horse is fast."

Xu Chuchu was stunned for a moment, and the original tension disappeared. She burst into laughter, held Xiao Yu with the hand that was not poisoned, and sat in front of him.

What? You’re still so arrogant.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Yu held her in his arms, his heart pounding.

"The Taoist temple outside the city." Xu Chuchu replied with a smile.

"Hold on tight." Xiao Yu sped up his horse.

After running for a while, he looked down at Xu Chuchu, who was still grinning, and asked unhappily, "Is it funny?"

"No..." Xu Chuchu laughed even harder, "I just didn't think about the fact that I couldn't leave the city gate."

She had a high level of cultivation in her previous life, and she was the only one who helped others, with no one helping her. She was used to being a "lone wolf".

This time when he was in trouble, he didn't even think about asking others for help, especially Xiao Yu who had no cultivation.

I didn’t expect that someone would offer to help me and actually help me... Not bad?

It feels like I have something to rely on.

Xu Chuchu and Xiao Yu rode on the same horse, and her back would bump into Xiao Yu's body intentionally or unintentionally. Xiao Yu's unique pure yang body made her feel particularly comfortable at this time, and she fell asleep leaning against him without realizing it.

Xiao Yu probably knew the location of the Taoist temple, so he didn't pay attention to Xu Chuchu's movements and concentrated on getting on his way.

After a while, I felt Xu Chuchu's head hitting my chest from time to time, and then I realized that this little girl had fallen asleep without me noticing.

"You can sleep even in such a bumpy ride..." He muttered in disdain, but unconsciously changed his posture to allow Xu Chuchu to lean on him more comfortably.

Originally, he thought Xu Chuchu was going to leave quietly, and he was so angry. Later, when he saw that she was poisoned, he was anxious and angry at the same time. He was angry that she didn't think of asking him for help at the critical moment, but instead wanted to hide away alone.

But now seeing that she fell asleep due to exhaustion from helping him, his heart softened again. He just hoped that the journey would go smoothly and that he could detoxify her as soon as possible.

…

The Taoist temple of Sanshan Zhenren is located halfway up the mountain outside the city of Tailing. There are uneven stone roads along the way, and the horses can no longer walk on it, so people have to get off and walk.

"We're here, lazy pig." Xiao Yu relaxed his body which had been stiff all the way and called out to Xu Chuchu who was still leaning in his arms.

However, Xu Chuchu slept motionlessly.

"Xu Chuchu, wake up." Xiao Yu patted her gently.

Still motionless.

Xiao Yu immediately felt something was wrong. He turned Xu Chuchu's body over and was shocked to find that the right half of her face also had the same strange black pattern as on her arm!

Looking more closely, these patterns seem to be growing from her arms all the way up, from her arms to her shoulder blades, then to her neck and face, and there is a tendency to continue growing!

How come it suddenly became so poisonous!

Xiao Yu subconsciously tried to touch the pattern, but Xu Chuchu suddenly woke up as if she had sensed something.

"Don't touch it..." She opened her eyes with difficulty, "It's poisonous, you can't touch it."

Xiao Yu made a decisive judgment: "You are too weak now to go up. Tell me what kind of antidote you want to find, and I will find it."

Xu Chuchu shook her head: "No, you can't get in."

She didn't expect the poison to develop so quickly. The area where the patterns appeared became more and more itchy, and her body temperature was dissipating little by little. Only the part close to Xiao Yu could feel the warmth.

"Take off your coat and cover my face and neck," she said, "then carry me up on your back."

Xiao Yu did as he was told immediately.

He would do things according to his own ideas if he was sure of them, and he would never question things that were not within his field.

He lifted Xu Chuchu's legs, tilted his head and whispered, "Chuchu, hold my neck tight."

Xu Chuchu didn't respond, but she pulled back her arm that was originally resting weakly on his shoulder.
