Chapter 617 - 617 Third Detoxification

617 Third Detoxification

Jin Liu paused.

“What did Doctor Wu ask?”

Su Xiaolu was looking forward to it. She was curious.

“Doctor Wu asked ‘Master, why are you still in the mood to drink tea. What if Miss Su doesn’t detoxify you?’”

Jin Liu imitated Doctor Wu’s tone.

Su Xiaolu laughed.

Jin Liu added, “Master was not in a hurry. He even took a sip of tea before telling Doctor Wu calmly, ‘No, Xiaolu won’t break her promise. She hasn’t returned yet. She must be delayed by something.’”

After Jin Liu imitated Zhou Zhi’s tone, he smiled and said to Su Xiaolu, “Miss Su, why do you think he’s so confident that he knows you?”

Su Xiaolu pondered for a moment and smiled. “Because I call him Fourth Brother. That’s my brother. How can I break my promise?”

“Cough cough—”

Jin Liu looked over and immediately lowered his head. He smiled and retreated. After walking a little further, he shouted at Su Xiaolu, “Miss Su, you have to spar with us when you’re free next time.”

Su Xiaolu raised her hand. “No problem. I’ve improved a lot in the past six months.”

Su Xiaolu’s gaze landed on Zhou Zhi. He was wearing a white robe. His figure was delicate and his temperament was gentle and elegant.

Su Xiaolu sighed. She had not gained weight.

Zhou Zhi walked over and smiled lightly. “Why are you sighing? You haven’t seen me for a few months. Aren’t you happy to see me?”

Zhou Zhi reached out and bloomed a beautiful white flower in front of Su Xiaolu. He gave it to her.

“Fourth Brother, why didn’t you gain weight at all?”

Su Xiaolu took the flowers and smelled them. There was a faint fragrance that she liked.

A small water droplet condensed in her palm and watered the flower. She smiled and said, “This looks even better.”

Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu. “Xiaolu is amazing.”

He made a flowery seat and Su Xiaolu naturally sat down and followed Zhou Zhi into the house.

Su Xiaolu suddenly laughed. “Pfft—”

Zhou Zhi turned to look at her. “What are you laughing at now?”

“I feel like I’m a pendant on Fourth Brother’s leg.”

She suddenly felt like she had become a big shot’s leg accessory.

Zhou Zhi laughed. “That’s good too.”

They had not seen each other for a few months. Although he often heard about her, it had been a few months since he last saw her. He missed her very much.

He knew when Su Xiaolu returned that he could visit her immediately, but he didn’t. He knew she would come.

After entering the house and sitting down, Zhou Zhi stretched out his hand.

Su Xiaolu naturally took his pulse. Zhou Zhi’s pulse was stable. His body had a good foundation, but the residual poison was also very strong.

“How’s the leg?”

Su Xiaolu asked. The poison was all on his legs. The newly grown parts were also attacked by the poison. Su Xiaolu frowned.

“It’s not good. It died a while ago, but it doesn’t matter. I have the wood mark. Even without real legs, I can walk freely.”

When his legs started to rot due to the poison, Zhou Zhi thought it through.

He may not have healthy legs in this life, but God has made up for it in another way.

He used wood to the extreme. Wood could extend anywhere. They were his legs.

After all, it was not easy for them to grow out.

Zhou Zhi was magnanimous.

Su Xiaolu looked at him and smiled. “Fourth Brother doesn’t care anymore, but I don’t want to ruin my reputation. Are we still going to the hot spring this year?”

She hadn’t seen how Zhou Zhi’s leg was. She didn’t ask because she might be rejected.

Then she would wait for an opportunity to see when detoxifying.

Zhou Zhi nodded. “Sure.”

At noon, Su Xiaolu and Zhou Zhi ate together.

Zhou Zhi did not eat much. Su Xiaolu realized that he had eaten everything she had given him, even if he did not look like he wanted to.

Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but wonder if Zhou Zhi was doting on her.

After knowing each other for so long, he seemed to treat her like a sister, like Zhou Heng did. Zhou Heng treated her well and Zhou Zhi indulged her. He thought of her when there were good things.

Su Xiaolu remained silent and kept picking up food for him. She only stopped when she thought that he couldn’t eat anymore.

Su Xiaolu began to give Zhou Zhi acupuncture.

Zhou Zhi leaned against the couch and fiddled with the charcoal fire from time to time.

After the needles were inserted, Zhou Zhi asked softly, “Xiaolu, tell me about what happened in the past few months.”

Since she had nothing to do and since she had indeed encountered a lot of things in the past few months, she told Zhou Zhi a few things.

“There’s a huge Kun in the sea and a huge bear and other beasts in the forest. It seems that it’s easy to raise huge beasts in the foreign lands.”

Zhou Zhi analyzed. There was still too little information about the fusion of two worlds.

It was probably impossible to completely explore it. There were many places that people had yet to set foot in.

...

Now that it had expanded, there was no need to mention it.

“If there are people, they should be very big.”

Zhou Zhi said softly.

A word appeared in Su Xiaolu’s mind. Giants.

She couldn’t help but be shocked. “We haven’t seen any yet. If there are humans, they might be giants or like us, but they all have many abilities.”

“In this month, the fog is already covered in ice and snow. Cold air spread out, and the five miles outside the fog are covered in frost. People can’t stand the cold at all. For the time being, no one can walk in.”

Zhou Zhi mentioned the fog. Su Xiaolu probably didn’t know yet. After all, she was tied down by Little Niu.

“We’ll see when spring comes.”

It was difficult for ordinary people to understand the mysteries of the world. The chances of the two worlds fusing were too minute. It was difficult to determine what would happen.

Perhaps the snow would melt in spring and everyone would be able to enter again. Perhaps the snow would continue to seal and they would not be able to enter again.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhou Zhi nodded. “After the new year, I’ll go to Qinghai again. Are you going? I want to catch a big Kun.”

...

“No matter what, we need to become stronger. It’s the survival of the fittest. As the royal family of the Great Zhou, it’s my responsibility to protect the people of the Great Zhou. I don’t want the stability that our ancestors have accumulated for generations to be destroyed by our generation.”

Zhou Zhi’s eyes darkened.

Su Xiaolu nodded. “I’m going too.”

Zhou Zhi wanted to protect the world. She didn’t think too much about it. She only wanted to protect her family. She had family behind her.

The country’s stability was crucial to protecting her home. She understood this principle.

“Have you entered the palace?”

Zhou Zhi smiled and said.

Su Xiaolu nodded. “I went to see my sister. She’s pregnant.”

“If everything goes well, he’ll be the Crown Prince after the new year. When they move out of the palace, it’ll be much more convenient for your sister to go home. If I had known that it would be so easy for me to let him come back, I wouldn’t have stopped him.” Zhou Zhi smiled. Compared to Zhou Heng, who was so busy that he wished he could clone himself, he was much more relaxed. His mental state was also gradually changing.

“Fourth Brother, you’ve changed a lot,” Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi and said.

“Because there are many happy things. I’m a young man after all.” Zhou Zhi teased himself. His tone was relaxed. There was a smile in his eyes, like a ray of bright sunlight, making Su Xiaolu a little dazed.
