Chapter 661 - 661 Feeding 2
661 Feeding 2
However, no matter what, being strong was the only way to protect oneself.
However, no matter how powerful one was, one would eventually be buried in time. This was also true.
Otherwise, why could those cultivators from 10,000 years ago no longer be seen? Why did the legendary immortals no longer?
“Thank you very much.”
Gui You thanked him sincerely. Just as Zhou Zhi had said, many things in the future would only be known in the future. However, at the moment, everyone was trying to figure things out. This information was precious. It was very precious for Zhou Zhi to tell them this.
It was like clearing the fog in front of them. Gradually, a clear path appeared, letting everyone know where to walk.
This was a good thing.
“This trip to the foreign land depends on the situation. If possible, we have to go deeper in. Seniors, please be prepared.”
Zhou Zhi cupped fists and said politely.
There was still too little exploration of the foreign realm. They should go deeper in.
This time, he would bring people deep into the hinterland. The preparations in the early stages would inevitably be longer.
“Then we won’t disturb the Wisdom King any longer.”
Gui You and Old Wu stood up.
Su Xiaolu also got up and went back.
As she walked, Su Xiaolu felt a scratch on her palm. She looked down and saw another fruit being sent over by the vines.
She took the fruit and turned around. Zhou Zhi was standing in front of the door, smiling at her.
Su Xiaolu waved her hand and smiled back.
Back home.
Su Xiaolu took out the fruit and said to the two masters, “Master, Master Gui You, try this fruit. Fourth Brother gave it to me. It’s delicious.”
“When did he give it to you?”
Old Wu narrowed his eyes warily. Why didn’t he give it to her openly? He was so sneaky and it didn’t look like he had any good intentions.
“Just now…”
Su Xiaolu felt a little guilty. She already ate two secretly.
Gui You was calm. He took it and sniffed it before putting it down. “Since it’s for you, eat it. Call him Fourth Brother. You’ve saved him so many times. You deserve to eat anything from him.”
“He has a conscience. He remembers you if there’s anything good. He must really dote on you. He treats you well, and you treat him well too. There’s no need to argue about this between siblings. He’s the same as Su Chong and Su Hua. In the future, if you have anything good, you’ll remember him as your brother.”
Gui You made a lot of sense.
Old Wu’s expression softened. He stroked his beard and said, “That’s right. Girl, eat it. He really treats you as his sister. Just treat him as your biological brother.”
Su Xiaolu smiled and nodded. “Masters, don’t worry. I will.”
Zhou Zhi treated her as his sister. She would definitely treat Zhou Zhi as her brother, just like her eldest brother and second brother.
It felt good to have another brother to dote on her.
Holding the fruit, Su Xiaolu swallowed. “Master, I’ll eat it…”
Gui You and Old Wu nodded. There was no need for them to snatch a fruit from the little girl.
Only children liked to eat wild fruits.
They worked hard to make Su Xiaolu treat Zhou Zhi as her brother. This was enough.
Su Xiaolu took the fruit back to her room and ate it in small bites.
She went into the Space to give the last bit to Mantis Shrimp.
Mantis Shrimp was still lying on the Interface Stone and working hard. When Su Xiaolu gave it the fruit, it ate it happily. After eating it, it felt exactly the same as Su Xiaolu. It smacked its lips to savor the aftertaste.
But it couldn’t seem to remember. Mantis Shrimp rubbed against Su Xiaolu’s palm and licked her fingers, making a chirping sound, as if asking, “Are there more?”
Su Xiaolu pinched the little claws of Mantis Shrimp and smiled. “No.”
After playing with Mantis Shrimp for a while, Su Xiaolu checked the herbs and looked at the carp in the spiritual spring water before going out.
Mantis Shrimp was still young and couldn’t really eat the Interface Stones, so Su Xiaolu let it be. Besides, it couldn’t finish so many Interface Stones in the Space.
However, she had been fed by Zhou Zhi and had yet to take his pulse.
Therefore, at night, after the two Masters fell asleep, Su Xiaolu quietly went out.
She came to Zhou Zhi’s temporary residence. As if knowing that she was here, the door opened as soon as she arrived.
When Su Xiaolu entered the house, Zhou Zhi was already leaning against the bed.
Su Xiaolu watched as he put down the book in his hand. Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “Fourth Brother, I’m here to see you and take your pulse.”
Zhou Zhi, who was reading a book, looked quite cute.
Zhou Zhi smiled and reached out.
Su Xiaolu pinched his wrist to feel his pulse. Zhou Zhi’s hand was very good-looking and his fingers were long and slender. After surviving the detoxification, his body recovered from its weakness and he became lean.
But that was probably how his body was. No matter how much he ate, he wouldn’t gain weight.
His pulse was stable, and the remaining poison was suppressed very well.
Su Xiaolu retracted her hand and said, “It seems that Fourth Brother is in a good mood.”
His heart rate was faster. He was also smiling. It was obvious at a glance that he was in a good mood.
“Yes, I’m very happy to see Xiaolu.”
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu. After not seeing her for a few months, Su Xiaolu had grown a little more. She looked good no matter how he looked at her.
“I’m happy to see Fourth Brother too.”
Su Xiaolu said with a smile. Because they were getting closer, she was also very happy to see Zhou Zhi.
“Oh yes.”
Su Xiaolu thought of the fruit and asked seriously, “Fourth Brother, where did you pick the fruit you gave me? I’ve never seen it before. It’s delicious.”
Zhou Zhi reached out and let Su Xiaolu see the green ring mark on his wrist. He said softly, “One will grow out of the mark every month.”
“The fruit will strengthen your body. It’s helpful for your Foundation Establishment to deal with the lightning tribulation.”
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu, who was stunned. He couldn’t help but reach out and pinch her cheek.
Su Xiaolu came back to her senses. “I ate three at once… This is too wasteful.”
He only got one per month, and there were so few in a year. She ate three at once. Su Xiaolu immediately felt as if she had spent a million taels of silver.
“No, this fruit is only beneficial to the body and can’t treat illnesses. Xiaolu, you don’t have to feel sorry. Fourth Brother was only prepared to give it to you.”
Zhou Zhi smiled and said.
“That won’t do. You still have remaining poison in your body. I have to keep it for you to detoxify.”
Su Xiaolu quickly waved her hand. She had already eaten three. It was enough. Zhou Zhi remembered her, so she naturally did not forget him. Detoxification was too torturous. It was perfect for him to eat such fruits.
Zhou Zhi smiled. “Okay, I’ll listen to Xiaolu.”
Zhou Zhi’s smile was filled with doting.
“Xiaolu, how did you feel when you went to the North this time?”
Zhou Zhi asked about Su Xiaolu’s experience in the north mountain this year.
Su Xiaolu thought that Zhou Zhi had shared so much with her. She took out a stone and said to Zhou Zhi, “Fourth Brother, touch this stone.”
It was the Interface Stone. When she touched the stone, there would be information about it. Little Niu and the others didn’t feel it, but what about Zhou Zhi?
Zhou Zhi took the stone and observed it carefully. Then, he looked at Su Xiaolu. “I can’t see anything unusual about this stone. The texture feels like jade, but the weight is not right.”
