Yuan Jiang was so embarrassed that she wanted to cry. She lowered her eyes and glanced at her skin, which was covered with dense and hideous red marks, including pinch marks, kiss marks, and bite marks.
There's not a single piece of good meat on her!
Lou Ji must have applied medicine to her, and a faint and pleasant medicinal fragrance emanated from his body. She exhaled and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, leaving only her head exposed.
The beautiful and watery fox eyes looked out the door, and shouted hoarsely: "Lou, Lou Ji..."
Unexpectedly, the response to her was not Lou Ji's low and hoarse voice, but a... girl's voice.
"Sister is awake! Sister is awake!" The voice was innocent and naive.
Immediately afterwards, the rickety wooden door was kicked open with a "bang". Yuan Jiang's face turned pale with fright, and soon, a young girl appeared in front of him.
The girl's crooked bun was stained with grass debris and pale yellow wild flowers, and a few strands of hair stuck to her dirty cheeks. She was holding an unknown wild grass in her hand, standing stupidly by the bed, staring at Yuan Jiang with her bright, watery almond eyes.
Seeing Yuan Jiang shrink her neck in fear, the girl grinned and chuckled twice, handing over the weeds in her hand: "Sister, take the medicine!"
"Take the medicine and you will get better!"
Yuan Jiang was completely confused, even her breathing held. She looked at the foolish girl in front of her suspiciously, her heart full of doubts.
According to the system, the area below this ten-thousand-foot cliff was deserted. Where did this girl come from? Could she also be a demon? Yuan Jiang's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He used his demonic power to probe the girl, but could not detect any demonic aura.
Yuan Jiang stared at the girl with a wary look and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
"Me?" The girl looked at Yuan Jiang infatuatedly, grinning happily: "I am Silly Chun! Sister."
"My brother said that I'm sick and can only get better by taking medicine. Here you go!" The girl shook the herb in her hand: "Eat it quickly!"
Yuan Jiang felt a strong sense of unease in her heart. Her slender snow-white shoulders shrugged slightly. Just as she opened her mouth to ask again, she heard hurried footsteps outside the door.
Da, da, da,
Along with the heavy and messy footsteps, Lou Ji was wrapped in a strong smell of dampness. He had just come out of the mountains. Not only was a thin layer of hot sweat oozing out of his cold white skin, but there were also many marks of grass insect bites.
The fight last night was so violent that he didn't hold back and only realized after he came to his senses that he had injured Yuan Jiang.
The wound was swollen. If it was not treated, Lou Ji was afraid that Yuan Jiang's body would not be able to bear it and would develop a high fever, so he had no choice but to go to the deep forest alone to pick herbs.
As for Silly Spring...
Lou Ji's dark eyes flickered across Shachun's silly smile. He quickly walked to the bed and sat down, his face filled with anxiety: "Jiang Jiang, I'm back."
"My dear!" Yuan Jiang's eyes suddenly lit up, like a helpless and confused trapped animal that had found its master. She suddenly threw herself into Lou Ji's arms, rubbing her snow-white and fragile little face against his chest. Her voice was weak, "Where have you been? Jiang Jiang woke up and didn't see you. I was so scared."
"And this person, who is this person?"
"Why are you here?"
A dark glint flashed in Lou Ji's eyes. He gently patted Yuan Jiang's slender back with his rough palm, and his voice was soft and gentle: "It's all my fault. I hurt you. I was afraid you would get sick, so I had no choice but to go to the deep forest alone to pick herbs. Something unexpected happened, and I didn't get back before Jiang Jiang woke up. It's my fault."
"As for her..." Lou Ji glanced at Silly Chun, his thin red lips twitching as he explained lightly, "When I woke up, Silly Chun appeared in the yard. I saw that she had no magical power and was still a fool, so I left her here to guard you."
"Really?" Yuan Jiang Chuchu looked up at Lou Ji pitifully, feeling something was wrong. She frowned and said, "My dear."
"Of course it's true." Lou Ji curved his eyebrows and spoke with a firm tone.
Lou Ji is lying.
Yuan Jiang stared at Lou Ji in a daze. Seeing his gentle smile, she felt creepy.
Yuan Jiang was consumed by a strong sense of unease that things were out of control.
At the bottom of this thousand-foot cliff, a foolish girl suddenly appeared. Moreover, how did Lou Ji know where to collect herbs? According to the information provided by the system, Lou Ji was only a first-level demon hunter and knew nothing about pharmacology.
Yuan Jiang's confused gaze fell on Lou Ji's backpack, which was filled with densely packed herbs, about a dozen kinds, all of which were anti-inflammatory, blood-stasis-removing and blood-activating herbs.
But how could Lou Ji know...
"Jiang Jiang, what's wrong?" The smile on Lou Ji's lips grew deeper, and his eyes staring at Yuan Jiang became even darker and deeper.
Yuan Jiang's scalp tingled. He forced a smile and said awkwardly, "My dear, the fact that Shachun is here doesn't mean... there's a village nearby or something like that?"
Lou Ji raised the corner of his lips in a strange and perverted arc, as if smiling: "Of course, perhaps there is a paradise not far away."
"Jiang Jiang, if we can't get out, let's just stay here and live, okay?"
"Anyway, you're already mine."
