Chapter 123 After all, my opponents can only be humans, how can they be a group of wild dogs?
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Zhong Hanshang took Gao Huohuo to Luoxia City and found a remote courtyard, then sat down against the wall.
He quickly fed Gao Huohuo another pill of his, and saw that her complexion improved a little.
But she looked very tired, and soon she found Gao Huohuo sleeping against the wall.
This was their third meeting, but Gao Huohuo had never looked so vulnerable.
With his brows slightly furrowed, a hint of surprise and gratitude inadvertently flashed in Zhong Hanshang's eyes, but he quickly concealed these emotions.
Zhong Hanshang gently leaned her head on his shoulder and pressed his body down, trying to make Gao Huohuo more comfortable.
He couldn't help but become curious about Gao Huohuo and wanted to understand why she was willing to save him every time?
It was not until the first ray of morning sunlight shone into Luoxia City that the evil spirits finally retreated.
Zhong Hanshang carefully put Gao Huohuo's head on the wall again and patted her shoulder.
He shouted in a tone as gentle as possible but still a little cold and stiff:
"Fellow Daoist Gao, wake up quickly. It's dawn. I'll take you out of here."
Gao Huohuo opened his tired eyes and saw that it was already bright outside.
He stood up from the ground, but did not answer immediately.
"Fellow Daoist Zhong, I want to stay here and recover my spiritual power before leaving the city before dark.
If you have other things to do, you can leave first. I can handle it alone."
"No problem, I'll just take advantage of the daytime and wander around Luoxia City."
She had already made an appointment with Su Ruoyun to meet here, and where else could she go now?
If she was seen with Zhong Hanshang again, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.
It would be better for her to stay in Luoxia City. As long as she absorbs spiritual energy during the day, her injuries will probably be almost healed by night.
When the time comes, go out again at night and rest for a night by this city wall.
Gao Huohuo took advantage of the fact that there were no evil spirits during the day, placed spirit-gathering talismans all over the ground, and began to absorb spiritual energy.
A blacksmith must be strong himself. In the past, she relied too much on the system.
This incident was a lesson. If her cultivation had not just improved, she would have fallen into it last night.
Five hours later, Gao Huohuo opened his eyes.
Seeing that it was getting dark, he left Luoxia City with Zhong Hanshang.
I thought I would have to sleep outdoors again, but I didn't expect that Zhong Hanshang also had a similar courtyard.
It’s similar to Su Ruoyun’s, except that there is only one bedroom and two training rooms.
Gao Huohuo took the initiative to enter one of the training rooms and started practicing again.
But suddenly she discovered that there were a few more names on her system unexpectedly.
Gao Huohuo was a little confused for a moment. She hadn't even left, so who were these people who wanted to kill her?
But she is in urgent need of such talents now, and the more people who want to kill her, the better.
If there hadn't been so many people on the system before, it wouldn't have been able to recover so quickly.
Zhong Hanshang saw Gao Huohuo go to the training room and turned to go to the kitchen.
Gao Huohuo was practicing attentively in the quiet room when suddenly, a faint smell of burning came into her nostrils.
She was startled and immediately stopped practicing, stood up and walked out quickly.
At a glance, I saw Zhong Hanshang standing in front of the stove, frantically fiddling with the tools for cooking porridge.
"Friend Zhong, are you preparing to cook porridge?"
Gao Huohuo walked forward, glanced at the slightly messy stove, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"If you want to cook this spiritual porridge, you have to be more particular about the steps.
You need to put the spiritual rice into the pot first, then slowly pour in the spiritual spring water, and finally put in other nourishing spiritual objects in order.
Only in this way can you make a pot of superior spiritual porridge."
Zhong Hanshang listened carefully and nodded from time to time. After Gao Huohuo finished speaking, he immediately tried again according to his instructions.
This time, no strange sounds came from the pot, and soon the steaming and fragrant porridge was ready.
Zhong Hanshang filled a bowl and handed it to Gao Huohuo respectfully with both hands, his face full of sincerity:
"Fellow Daoist Gao, I am deeply grateful for your help in saving me. I will always remember this great favor.
From now on, if you have any requests, just give me a command and I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Gao Huohuo was not polite either. He took the bowl of porridge carelessly and grinned:
“Fellow Daoist Zhong is so straightforward!
If I meet someone I really can't beat in the future, I will bring him to you to help me kill him.
I'll be the first one to ask you for help to calm the situation, so please don't find me annoying when the time comes!"
When Zhong Hanshang heard this, his expression froze instantly.
He didn't expect Gao Huohuo to speak so bluntly. For a moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Seeing that he tacitly agreed, Gao Huohuo stirred the spoon a few times and drank the porridge.
After eating a bowl of porridge, a surge of spiritual energy suddenly filled my whole body.
It seems that this porridge is filled with good stuff! I wonder if there is any more?
"There are more in the kitchen. Those are reserved for you."
Hearing what Zhong Hanshang said, Gao Huohuo rushed to the kitchen.
No words were spoken that night.
Early the next morning, Gao Huohuo came to say goodbye to Zhong Hanshang. She wanted to take advantage of these few days to go out and find some heroes on the list.
"Fellow Daoist Zhong, thank you for the porridge. Not only have my injuries healed, but my cultivation has also improved.
See you in the rivers and lakes."
Zhong Hanshang bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist Gao, take care on your journey."
After the two said goodbye, Gao Huohuo flew to Yashan again on his sword to check if the Yujianhua was still there.
When she arrived and found that no one had been there, she picked off all the mature petals and left only the stem.
Just as he finished his work and was about to investigate the situation of the Dark River monks, he ran into the few people who had been causing trouble in the inn before.
"Is it you? We've been looking for you everywhere these days, and we didn't expect to meet you here. Come and pay with your life."
As soon as he finished speaking, one of them rushed towards Gao Huohuo with a sword.
After looking at the number of people on the opposite side, Gao Huohuo had an idea in his mind.
After dodging it with a quick move, Gao Huohuo said provocatively:
"It's you wild dogs again, come at me all at once, I'm in a hurry."
She's the only one here today, and she still dares to be so arrogant?
There were five of them in total. Wouldn't it be easy to beat her just one of them?
"Do you think you can get away today?
We now have more people than you, and we have already informed the Saint. Let's see how you can laugh later."
Oh, Zhong Hanshang has left, but the saint is still here. It seems that there is something for her to stay in this dark river.
She just didn't know if it was the Hunyuan Pearl that Su Ruoyun took away. If it was the same one, she couldn't wait to see the saint's expression.
"I'm so scared! You guys want to kill me?
I'm not looking down on you. Even if you practice for another hundred years, you still won't be my match.
After all, my opponents can only be humans, how can they be a group of wild dogs?"
After whipping a few people, Gao Huohuo pretended to run away.
When those people saw her like this, they chased after her closely.
One of them chased after Gao Huohuo and shouted:
"You're so arrogant. When you heard the Saint was coming, weren't you scared?
But don't make any unnecessary struggles, you can't escape by yourself."
Although he said this, he secretly whispered to the person next to him.
"How long until the Saint arrives?"
"It's almost there. The other monks are rushing here too. We just need to stop her."
When this person heard that not only the Saint Lady was coming but other monks were also coming, he immediately felt proud.
This is a rare opportunity, we must not let her get away today.
