Lu Jingzhi thought to himself that something was wrong. At this moment, the man took a step forward, and the drop of sweat successfully avoided his bald head and dripped onto the ground.
"Let's go look for him up ahead. He's seriously injured and can't get far."
"Yes, Boss."
Lu Jingzhi wiped his sweat and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes filled with murderous hatred. [Bald guy, just wait for me.]
Then, he took out the healing pills and stuffed two into his mouth. The wounds on his chest and back were wrapped in a cool breath and were slowly healing.
When the tense nerves were relaxed, the drowsiness came like a beast, rushing straight to the top of the head.
I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past few days. Now I can't stand it anymore and fall into a deep sleep...
In the sunset, a group of big birds flew towards the sunset.
Chirp...
Chirp...
Lu Jingzhi slowly opened his sleepy eyes and saw a red bird with black feathers standing on his chest and looking at him.
Seeing Lu Jingzhi wake up, it flapped its wings and aimed its sharp claws at his face. Frightened, Lu Jingzhi pushed it away with his right hand, and his whole center of gravity shifted, "Oh~ah!"
The whole person fell towards the bottom of the tree.
"Ouch, damn stinky bird." He covered his butt and cursed at the bird in the tree.
"You're so useless. You got scared like this by a bird."
Lu Jingzhi said with a sad face, "Master, please stop teasing me."
"Hmph, you did a good job today, escaping death."
Hearing Yan An's praise, he was startled, then grinned and said, "Master, you praise me again?!"
"Great! This is the second time Master has praised me."
Yan An couldn't help laughing out loud, "Are you stupid?"
Lu Jingzhi touched his nose, talked with Yan An for a few words, and then took advantage of the sky before it got dark to find a place to stay so that he could rest peacefully at night.
He walked for about half an hour and still couldn't find any place to stay. During this time, he saw a cave full of spider webs.
He didn't dare to go into the cave, because it was the cave of the Sky Demon King Spider, and once in, there was no way out...
Lu Jingzhi, who was in bad luck, searched all the way until the sun went down, but still couldn't find a place to stay.
[Alas, it seems I can only spend the night trembling in fear on the tree branch.]
Thinking of this, Lu Jingzhi climbed up a tree several meters high, just like he did this morning, half leaning on a branch, looking into the distance.
Suddenly, he saw a fire a few hundred meters away, which meant that there were people there.
Lu Jingzhi jumped down from the tree with a try-it attitude and walked towards the direction where there were people...
"Your Highness, the broth is ready and you can eat it." A middle-aged man came up to a sweet-looking woman and said respectfully.
"Okay, I understand."
The woman was wearing a black corseted dress. Her round face was shining in the fire, and her black hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing her entire round face.
Lu Jingzhi quietly hid behind a tree, watching this scene, [Princess, is this from our empire?]
He continued to look around, debating whether to go up and find a place to rest.
"who!"
Lu Jingzhi was so frightened that his body froze and he didn't dare to show his head.
The woman sitting on the wood stood up vigilantly, her beautiful eyes looking in the direction of Lu Jingzhi.
"Miss...Miss, don't attack your own people." Lu Jingzhi raised his hands and smiled awkwardly.
"One-star Jindan realm, what are you doing here?"
The man saw through her cultivation level at a glance, and she knew in her heart that this person's cultivation level was far superior to hers.
"Brother, I just want to lie down in a corner for a while. I don't have any bad intentions." He explained quickly.
In this monster forest, most monsters hunt at night, but what scares Lu Jingzhi the most are the strange and bizarre insects. If he could find a big friend to help him, he would feel a lot more relaxed.
"Oh, why should I let you stay here? Leave now, or don't blame me for being rude."
Seeing his stern refusal, Lu Jingzhi touched his nose and prepared to return to the tree branch he had just been on.
"Let him stay. He's only at the Jindan stage and can't cause any trouble."
He paused, thanked them hastily, and then, as if afraid that the two would go back on their word, he sat in a corner.
The man's mouth twitched, "You are so shameless."
"Thank you for the compliment, uncle. My parents always say that I'm thicker-skinned than a pig."
The princess chuckled, revealing her dimples, looking sweet and adorable. "I've never seen someone thank someone for scolding me."
"Well...now you see it."
At this time, Lu Jingzhi's stomach made a rumbling sound.
The voice reached the princess's ears clearly, and she asked with a puzzled look, "Are you hungry? There's broth in the pot."
"No need, I have dry food. I'm already very grateful that you can let me rest here for a night." After saying that, he took out dry food and water from the ring and sat in the corner to eat.
"Your Highness, we will ignore him. You drink the soup." The man brought the broth to her.
She took it and tasted it. It tasted sweet. "You really don't want it?"
"No, thank you, Princess."
Seeing that he refused, the princess did not ask any more questions. After eating with the middle-aged man, she sat on the tree trunk and practiced the underworld god...
"Princess."
The woman opened her eyes and looked at Lu Jingzhi opposite her with confusion.
"Are you the princess of our empire?"
"If you are a citizen of the Zitian Empire, then I am one."
Seeing her say yes, Lu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows. It was his first time meeting someone from the imperial family. "Of course I am a citizen of the Zitian Empire. In fact, I have admired Her Highness the Princess for a long time. I wonder how long Her Highness the Princess will stay here?"
