Zhao Kui's lower body was currently floating above the water, and from his chest position to his head was stuck in the silt of the river bank. Zhao Kui's wound occasionally oozed with blood and quickly disappeared into the river, while Little Fishy would occasionally collide with Zhao Kui's wound.
An intense pain came up as Zhao Kui slowly regained consciousness. There was not a single part of his body that was not in pain. The heart-wrenching pain was tearing at his nerves. Zhao Kui felt as if his head was about to explode from the pain! Zhao Kui slightly turned his head and moved his body as well, scaring away all the playing Little Fishy beside him.
The river was wide here and the current was slow. This was the place where he had stopped because his body had touched the soil. Right now, he was still lying on the river bank with his body soaked in water, with wounds caused by Ye Tian and Ye Nan on his body. As he fell down and was washed away by the river, the wounds caused by the trees, thorns, and other things had all swelled up until they turned white.
"I can't continue to soak in the water like this, or the wound will worsen. When the pus starts to fester, it'll be difficult to deal with it!" After pondering for a while, he gritted his teeth and struggled to turn his body over. He pressed his shoulders to the ground and slowly squirmed forward, not daring to roll forward. Firstly, he did not dare to roll forward because he was at a low position on the ground and it would be too difficult to roll upwards.
Sometimes, Zhao Kui would move forward a little, but he had to move backwards a lot. With difficulty, Zhao Kui managed to move forward, and it took him over a quarter of an hour to leave the water-filled area. His entire body was exhausted, and with just this little distance, Zhao Kui felt as if he was tiring, and his body was even more exhausted than if he had spent an entire day practicing!
Zhao Kui stopped to take deep breaths. His entire body was covered with mud as he moved, making him look like a clay figurine. Zhao Kui could not care less as he panted heavily.
There might be wild beasts in the cave, but he couldn't care so much. If he stayed outside, he would soon be found by the wild beasts that foraged for food. Then, he would definitely die! Instead of waiting for death, he might as well give it a try. After all, he almost died anyway. As the saying goes, there will always be good fortune in surviving a great disaster.
After resting for a long time, Zhao Kui felt that his strength had recovered quite a bit. He continued to move forward in an intermittent manner. Zhao Kui finally arrived at the entrance of the cave.
After entering the cave for a while, Zhao Kui finally started to get used to the darkness inside. Zhao Kui looked inside the cave, it was very big, there was even water on the ground, there was a stalactite at the top of the cave, and on top of the stalactite bamboo shoot, there was even a drop of stalactite on the tip of the stalactite.
Zhao Kui looked at his hands and feet that were unable to move, then at the clock milk that was constantly dripping down. The clock milk was as white as milk, a magical product of nature, and it contained an extremely rich amount of nutrients, which could be eaten by other people. Now, his body could not move at all, and he could only rely on these things to quench his hunger and thirst.
Zhao Kui moved to the bottom of a stalactite and raised his head. He opened his mouth and waited for the liquid to drip down.
"Bada!"
The thick and sticky liquid slowly melted in Zhao Kui's mouth, continuously stimulating his tongue. Zhao Kui felt extremely uncomfortable and was unable to swallow it; although the liquid was full of nutrients, its taste was extremely terrible. It was simply inedible.
If he did not eat it, he would starve to death in this cave. The strong will to live forced him to continuously swallow the bell lotion, and Zhao Kui did not know how many times he had consumed the bell lotion. His stomach was already full, so he stopped swallowing the bell lotion and moved to the side.
Zhao Kui quietly looked at the top of the cave and thought back to everything that had happened today. Zhao Kui did not want to get him to flay the tendons on the Ye father and son duo. What he thought most of all was still Ye Qingqing.
In his heart, Zhao Kui did not have much feelings for this girl who had saved him before, but liked to pester him. Zhao Kui only saw her as a sister, and Zhao Kui knew how Ye Qingqing felt towards him, but he could only pretend that he did not know. He did not want to deceive this girl who looked crazy and bright, but was actually extremely fragile in his heart.
"Why do you have to go through so much trouble!" Zhao Kui mumbled in a low voice. He recalled the moment when Ye Qingqing, who was at the side of the cliff, pushed Zhao Kui down, he felt a pang in his heart. Ye Qingqing's voice lingered beside Zhao Kui's ear.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down, and I won't waste the chance to live on, which you gave me with your own life! I will live! " Zhao Kui's heart burned with a raging flame of desire for survival. From death to life, Zhao Kui's understanding of survival was much deeper than ordinary people.
Zhao Kui circulated his internal energy and allowed it to flow along his meridians, slowly nourishing his wounds with the nourishment from the Bell Emulsion he had just consumed.
Zhao Kui felt the nutrition he had absorbed slowly attached to the wound. He could feel an itchy feeling coming from the wound. The pain was easily endured by others, but when it came to itching, no matter how strong one's will was, they would not be able to endure it.
Fortunately, he was unable to move his hands and feet, otherwise, his wounds might have been torn. Zhao Kui's teeth chattered incessantly, and he continued to grit them in an effort to persevere, sometimes even biting the tip of his tongue in an attempt to lessen the discomfort caused by the numbness and itchiness.
Zhao Kui did not move at all. He knew that his wounds were recovering and that only by enduring the pain, would he be able to recover even faster. There were no other thoughts in his mind. He could only endure!
After some treatment, Zhao Kui felt that his wounds had already healed quite a bit. Looking at his wounds, they no longer looked as disgusting and terrifying as before. Zhao Kui heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhao Kui knew that the recovery speed of his bones was much slower, so he could only wait patiently. Ever since Zhao Kui had recovered extremely quickly from his several injuries, he had been extremely anticipating the mysterious liquid, hoping that it would once again bring out its shocking effects and rapidly heal his wounds. One day without his body recovering, he would be in even more danger.
Zhao Kui felt extremely curious. It was as if the mysterious liquid had merged into every part of his body. As long as he was injured, no matter which part he was in, he would be able to recover in an incredibly short period of time.
After struggling for a while, Zhao Kui didn't know how far he was from the cliff. He could only feel the fatigue that was spreading throughout his body. Zhao Kui felt as if his eyelids weighed a thousand kilograms, forcing him to close them and fall asleep.
