Chapter 225 Chapter 227 I feel happy
"Mutated beast, is that tiger a mutant beast? We humans need to practice hard to become practitioners, but tigers don't know how to practice. Can they become mutant beasts just by eating a few monsters? Won't he eat poisonous monsters and be poisoned to death?" Xia Kai said somewhat unfairly. He had poor talent and had practiced hard for such a long time, but his fighting power was crushed by an animal. He was really indignant.
Even humans who are extremely cautious about food have died from accidentally eating poisonous wild plants. There are also poisonous species among all kinds of monsters. How could the tiger not be poisoned to death?
"Maybe! The probability of mutant beasts appearing is much lower than that of human practitioners, but once they appear, they will inevitably dominate the area. Mutated beasts absorb the life essence of monsters, fuse them, and awaken the part of their blood that matches them. There is a high probability that they will form their own innate skills, which are very difficult to deal with." Rong Xianxian had heard of mutant beasts in her previous life, but she had never encountered them. Mutated beasts could be ferocious large wild animals, or they could be pets raised by humans, and it was difficult to distinguish them from their appearance.
The abandoned highway service area was in a mess, with a broken and dirty glass door. On the right hand side of the door was a fast food stall. A paper flyer with pictures of hamburgers, milk tea, French fries, and pancakes was pasted on the wall. There were price tags under each food.
The stall seemed to have been ransacked, with counters, vegetable baskets, and disposable tableware scattered all over the floor, making it a mess.
Opposite the entrance is a rest and waiting area with several fairly spacious hollow iron benches. Wang Qirui and Cui Lie were both injured. Rong Xianxian selected two benches, covered them with quilts, erected a few poles, pulled the curtains, and let the two lie on them, preparing to give them treatment.
Rong Xianxian quickly pierced the acupuncture points of Cui Lie and Wang Qirui with golden needles to regulate the disordered qi and blood and repair the damaged meridians. Wang Qirui grimaced in pain. Rong Xianxian said with a smile, "Okay, your injury is not serious. Take a pill later, meditate and regulate your breathing, and you will be well soon."
Wang Qirui thanked him and went to meditate.
Rong Xianxian checked Cui Lie's body again and frowned secretly. Rong Xianxian had just repaired Cui Lie's damaged meridians with golden needle technique, but now his meridians were a mess again.
Cui Lie said nothing, but in fact he was injured much more seriously than Wang Qirui. There was still extremely destructive lightning power remaining in his body. The lightning power was raging in his body, and he must be in great pain. Cui Lie's inner clothes were already soaked with sweat, and his face was a little pale, but he looked natural. If Rong Xianxian hadn't seen his trembling muscles, she would have thought he had no sense of pain.
The injury to the meridians had just been repaired, but the remaining lightning power came back to cause damage, which gave Rong Xianxian a headache.
Zhuguo Pills have the effect of repairing hidden injuries and replenishing qi and blood, which should be beneficial to Cui Lie's current injuries. However, Cui Lie has taken Zhuguo Pills many times before, and the effect of this medicine on him has weakened a lot. It seems that he has to think of a way to prepare a new medicine that is suitable for the symptoms.
"Sister Rong, don't worry. I feel my condition is getting better and the pain has been relieved a lot. Don't delay your trip because of this injury. Let's get ready to set off." Cui Lie's face was a little stiff as he endured the pain. He tried hard to force out an unnatural smile and comforted Rong Xianxian.
Cui Lie knew that Rong Xianxian was planning to treat their injuries and then set off immediately to reach the destination before dark, otherwise she would have already arranged for cleaning and arranging defenses.
Rong Xianxian did not expect that Cui Lie was seriously injured. This abandoned service area was located alone on the highway. It was only a hundred miles away from the area where mutant beasts appeared. The surrounding conditions were unclear and it was not a very ideal place to stay.
"I'm sorry, A'lie, I didn't expect the tiger to be so powerful. Its innate skill is the power of thunder and lightning, and it has reached the level of instantaneous release." Rong Xianxian felt a little sorry. This was the first time that Cui Lie suffered such a serious injury. If she hadn't insisted on looking for the ice crystal tree, such an accident would not have happened.
"Sister Rong, don't say that. Your spiritual energy had not recovered at that time, and your body was not in its best condition. As the second strongest force in our team, it was my turn to take action. Your decision was very correct. You have been protecting us all along. Although it hurts a little bit after being hit today, I feel very happy in my heart." Although Cui Lie's face was pale and stiff, there seemed to be stars twinkling in his eyes, and it could be seen that he was indeed in a good mood.
Rong Xianxian's realm of strength has always been higher than Cui Lie's. Most of the time, it is Rong Xianxian who takes action to resolve the crisis. Cui Lie has always felt depressed. He practiced hard, and his strength continued to improve. Finally, he got the recognition of Rong Xianxian.
The reason why Rong Xianxian was willing to let him cover their retreat this time was because she had not estimated the true strength of the mutant beast, otherwise Rong Xianxian might have thought of another countermeasure.
"Take this medicine, then practice qigong and regulate your breathing. I'll check on the situation later." Rong Xianxian handed a few Zhuguo pills to Cui Lie and watched him eat them. Even if there was not much effect, it was better to take it than not.
After Wang Qirui took the medicine and practiced qigong and breathing exercises, his injuries improved significantly. He went out to move around and saw Rong Xianxian and Wang Linxiakai outside observing the situation around the service area.
"Sister Rong, that tiger is really powerful. Fortunately, you gave proper command. If we had run slower, I'm afraid we would have been wiped out." Wang Qirui flattered her obsequiously.
Rong Xianxian laughed. She remembered that when she was giving the orders to escape immediately, Wang Qirui was so anxious that he wanted to jump out of the car and fight the tiger alone.
"Sister Rong, how do you know we are no match for that tiger?" Xia Kai asked puzzled. Apart from being a little bigger, the tiger didn't give off any domineering aura. If it hadn't emitted electric currents when it raised its paws, who would have known it was a mutant?
"No, I don't know." Rong Xianxian shook her head and said.
"But in such a vast area, there is only that one mutant beast, which is enough to prove its strength. If you lose, you will lose your life. If you win, you don't know what price you will pay, whether it is worthwhile or not, so avoiding war is the best option." Rong Xianxian said to Xia Kai and others.
"Is it vast?" Wang Qirui scratched his head. He didn't realize it. How did Sister Rong know?
"The area we passed by before happens to be on the outskirts of the tiger's territory, or it has already gone beyond its original territory." On the original map issued by the military in Rong Xianxian's hand, there is a red area nearby. It is a high-risk area marked by the military.
If Rong Xianxian guessed correctly, the red area was the tiger's territory.
