480 First Detoxification 2
No matter what it was, as long as it could regenerate his broken limbs, it was fine.
However, the regeneration of broken limbs was heaven-defying. How was that possible?
Su Xiaolu frowned. She thought of a possibility, unless the laws of the world were abnormal.
It was just like the apocalypse novels that she had read all night in her previous life. If the world became like that, ordinary people would start to activate their superpowers. It was not impossible for their broken limbs to regenerate.
However, this probability was equivalent to the destruction of the world. At the very least, it would not happen before they died of old age.
Su Xiaolu frowned because she felt that it was not impossible. After all, in her previous life, she had witnessed global diseases with her own eyes. There seemed to be nothing impossible in this world, including the apocalypse.
“Xiaolu, what are you thinking?”
Zhou Zhi asked. He felt that Su Xiaolu was depressed. He suddenly wanted to know what she was thinking.
Su Xiaolu came back to her senses and smiled. “I was wondering what I would do if I really encountered what was written in the book.”
Humans were complicated. They looked very weak, but they were also very tough and powerful.
Zhou Zhi laughed. “If you encounter that, you’ll probably be very afraid. People can overcome their fear in pursuit of benefits, but when there are no benefits, fear will consume their hearts, so in the end, it will still be destruction.”
“However, this is only true under the condition of being heartless to begin with. With true love, people can cross mountains and seas. I believe this even more.”
The heartless scholar in the book was heartless to begin with, so he showed his true colors when it came to benefits.
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi and suddenly had a strange feeling. She suddenly felt that Zhou Zhi was a little cute.
Su Xiaolu pursed her lips and shook off the strange thoughts in her mind. She changed the topic and said, “It’s time to eat.”
After dinner, they had to prepare the medicinal bath.
How could she have the time to think about this?
The two of them ate together and Zhou Zhi ate very slowly.
Su Xiaolu put dishes in his bowl. They were all his favorites.
The two of them ate quietly. To others, it felt inexplicably warm.
Doctor Wu stroked his beard and clicked his tongue. “How wonderful.”
“Doctor Wu, what do you mean?”
Jin Liu and the others were puzzled.
Doctor Wu gave them a meaningful look and said, “You don’t have a girl you like, so of course you don’t understand. I can only sigh. Our lord is really smart.”
Zhou Zhi had never said that he liked Su Xiaolu, but he could tell through the many details that he liked her.
As for Su Xiaolu, she had never said that she liked Zhou Zhi, but she had repeatedly made some moves. Even now, she remembers Zhou Zhi’s favorite dishes. Didn’t she remember them in her heart? Although she didn’t say that she liked him, this was what it was like to like someone.
Concern and care.
After dinner, Zhou Zhi began to soak in the medicinal bath.
Su Xiaolu dozed off as she added water. Zhou Zhi also fell asleep.
When the time was up, Su Xiaolu asked Jin Liu and Jin Qi to move him to the bed. She opened the first aid kit and took out the small knives.
“Miss Su, this is…”
Jin Liu and the others were puzzled. In the past, he could just take a medicinal bath. Why was it different today?
“It’s time to force the poison out of his body. When he’s awake, he won’t allow me to touch his legs. Now that he’s asleep, he’s unconscious. He wouldn’t know what I’ve done.”
Su Xiaolu said calmly.
Zhou Zhi looked sinister and mature, but he actually had the temperament of a child.
She didn’t know why he wouldn’t show her his legs, but she had to see them to detoxify him.
Su Xiaolu simply stopped talking. He would not know either way.
Jin Liu and the others were dumbfounded. They never expected Su Xiaolu to be so scheming.
The few of them remained silent and pretended that nothing had happened.
Zhou Zhi lay quietly on the bed with only his undergarments on. His pants were very empty. Su Xiaolu lifted them up and saw that his bruised knees were swollen. Zhou Zhi’s calves were missing, and there was only black and purple flesh.
Su Xiaolu did not even blink. She took a small knife and cut a small slit. A silver needle was inserted.
It was the same on the other side.
The silver needles gradually turned black. This process was very slow. When the two silver needles turned black, four hours had already passed.
Su Xiaolu took out the silver needles and inserted two more.
At dawn, the two silver needles were dark again. Su Xiaolu continued to prick.
During this period, Su Xiaolu had to take Zhou Zhi’s pulse continuously and occasionally put a pill into his mouth.
For three whole days, Su Xiaolu herself had lost a lot of weight. Finally, after the two silver needles were inserted, there was no change for a few hours. Su Xiaolu took out the silver needles and yawned as she said, “Is the fish and meat prepared for me ready? I’m going to starve to death. I’m so tired.”
If not for the support of her internal energy, she would not have been able to endure it.
“It’s ready. Miss Su can go eat soon.”
Jin Liu and the others were extremely respectful. They had all seen Su Xiaolu’s full efforts.
Su Xiaolu deserved the respect of everyone in the Wisdom King’s residence. She had saved Zhou Zhi’s life.
Su Xiaolu pinched Zhou Zhi’s mouth open and stuffed a pill into it. Then, she went out and returned to her room. After eating and drinking, she lay on the bed and started to rest.
She was too tired. As soon as she fell asleep, her consciousness sank into the Space to recuperate.
With the nourishment of spiritual energy, the fatigue gradually disappeared from her body.
When she woke up, it was already night.
She washed up and ate her fill before going to see Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi had yet to wake up, but his complexion had returned to normal. His breathing was even.
This first detoxification had removed one-fifth of the poison in his body, and his body had clearly improved.
The remaining poison was still sealed in his legs.
In the few days that Zhou Zhi was asleep, Su Xiaolu had finished reading many of the strange stories in his collection.
Some were stories written, while others were records that seemed to be myths.
For example, a flying dragon had suddenly appeared in the South Sea. It soared into the sky in the thunderstorm and was struck to death by the lightning. Its bones were hundreds of meters long.
In the desolate Qi state, a huge golden snake rushed out. Its scales flashed, and the bump on its head seemed to be horns.
Su Xiaolu looked through all of Zhou Zhi’s collections.
Mythological tales. Like the masses, she liked to read them.
On the fourth of June, Zhou Zhi woke up.
As soon as he woke up, he asked, “Where’s Miss Su?”
Jin Qi, who was guarding him, replied with a smile, “Miss Su is in the library. She has been in the library for the past few days. She didn’t even agree to practice swordsmanship.”
“How long was I asleep?”
Zhou Zhi frowned. Sensitive to Jin Qi’s words, he asked with a frown.
“You’ve been asleep for seven days.”
Jin Qi answered truthfully.
To be honest, they were all worried as Zhou Zhi had not woken up for so long. Now that Zhou Zhi had woken up, they could finally relax.
Seven days was quite a long time.
Jin Qi poured some water and said, “Miss Su has been using medicine to moisten your mouth these past few days. Master shouldn’t feel uncomfortable in your throat, but this water has been prepared by Miss Su. She said you should drink it when you wake up.”
