She secretly warned herself: From now on, I must remain humble and never underestimate any potential threat.
After all, as the old saying goes, "There are heavens beyond heavens, and people beyond people."
Time seemed to stand still; it was impossible to tell how much time had passed.
Finally, Jiang An felt his body gradually slow down and eventually came to a steady stop in a place overgrown with weeds.
With a dull thud, Jiang An fell heavily onto the tangled grass, kicking up a small cloud of dust.
After a long time, Jiang An remained lying quietly in the pile of weeds, showing no sign of getting up.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh!"
Finally, she began to make a move, forcefully spitting the sand out of her mouth while frowning and looking disgusted.
As for why her mouth was full of this annoying sand, the reason is actually quite simple—just as she landed, due to nervousness and the unexpected, she accidentally opened her mouth.
Jiang An struggled to slowly get up from the ground, gradually changing from a lying position to a sitting position.
She seemed somewhat helpless at this moment, after all, the Qi-Boosting Pill, which could help restore physical strength, had strict limitations, and could only be taken once every 6 hours.
So for now, she has no choice but to stay put and wait for her strength to slowly recover.
Although he has temporarily lost his fighting ability, he is fortunate to have the little turtle by his side.
With the little turtle's extraordinary high defense, it should be able to withstand dangerous situations for a considerable period of time.
Thinking of this, Jiang An suddenly realized what was happening and quickly reached out to take the little turtle out of her arms.
"Mommy, that was really scary!" The little turtle poked its tiny head out, curiously looking around at the huge changes in its surroundings, and then said in a slightly trembling voice, trembling with fear.
Hearing the little turtle's words, Jiang An gently comforted it, "Don't be afraid, baby, we've survived safely, haven't we?"
Despite saying this, Jiang An was still in shock and lingering fear.
At this very moment, the bright moon still hangs high in the sky, casting its cool light.
It seemed to be silently telling people that there was still a very long time before daylight arrived...
As Jiang An felt the changes in his body, he felt as if he had been hit hard by a heavy hammer, with every muscle aching.
She gritted her teeth, mustered her last bit of energy, and struggled to focus her consciousness on the storage ring.
The moment she activated her consciousness, it felt as if countless bees were buzzing and swarming in her head, and a sharp pain struck her.
Jiang An knew that this was a serious side effect of using that life-saving card.
Although physical strength can be gradually restored through rest, it is not easy to fully recover damaged mental strength.
At this moment, Jiang An could only pray silently, hoping that the pain would lessen after dawn.
Despite the pain, Jiang An took out the only two bottles of green leaf juice left in his storage ring.
Her hands trembled slightly as she handed one of the bottles to the equally exhausted little turtle beside her.
Despite its usual tough and energetic appearance, the little turtle has exhausted all its strength after the thrilling battle and urgently needs to replenish its energy to recover.
It opened its mouth, took the bottle of green leaf juice, and began to drink it in large gulps.
"Glug glug!" With the sound of swallowing, a bottle of green leaf juice was quickly emptied.
After drinking the green leaf juice, the little turtle regained some energy, but still appeared somewhat weak.
Meanwhile, Jiang An, after drinking another bottle of green leaf juice, felt her depleted strength recover slightly, but this little bit of strength was nothing compared to her current terrible condition.
However, Jiang An did not give up.
She frowned deeply, enduring the throbbing pain in her head, and reached into her storage ring again.
This time, she painstakingly pulled out a small bamboo basket filled with all sorts of fruits.
These fruits are brightly colored, have an enticing aroma, and without exception, they are all of excellent quality.
"Eat up, my little turtle! We usually can't bear to enjoy these fruits, so let's eat to our hearts' content today!" Jiang An looked tenderly at the basket full of brightly colored and fragrant fruits, and then whispered softly to the little turtle.
The little turtle stared wide-eyed at the basket of fruit, inhaling deeply the rich aroma emanating from it. It couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Wow, really? Mommy!"
"Of course it's true!" Jiang An nodded without hesitation, but deep down, a faint pang of heartache involuntarily swept over her.
After all, these fruits are all top-quality fruits!
Upon hearing the affirmative answer, the little turtle kept cheering, "Wow, that's great! That's wonderful!"
Then, it eagerly stretched out its short paws, quickly grabbed a big, red apple, and took a big bite out of its mouth.
Seeing the little turtle eating so happily, Jiang An smiled and picked up a piece of fruit, took a small bite, and the sweet juice immediately filled her mouth.
Time slipped by unnoticed, and before they knew it, the small basket of fruit that was once full had been completely devoured by the man and the turtle in front of them, leaving not a single crumb.
Having eaten so many excellent fruits, Jiang An felt full, and his strength had been greatly restored, almost back to its peak condition.
"Phew—" Jiang An let out a long sigh of relief, muttering to himself as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders, "I've finally fully recovered!"
Having regained her strength, she no longer wanted to sit idly in the messy grass.
Jiang An stood up abruptly, then bent down and swiftly scooped the little turtle into his arms before turning and leaving with light steps.
With more than two hours until dawn, she didn't want to make do here and wanted to find a suitable campsite.
After all, she can't leave here anytime soon.
Jiang An felt a little sorry for the excellent geographical location, which allowed him to kill dwarves every day.
Once you're far from the settlement, it won't be easy to find so many dwarves again.
Soon, Jiang An found a suitable place.
This time she didn't use a sleeping bag, but instead opened the tent directly.
After opening the tent, she went straight inside.
