Chapter Eighty-Eight: Not Too Stupid
The next day, at the edge of the Forest of Despair, a groan of weakness and pain sounded in a cave that had been burned in front of a cave that had left behind a large area of black ashes.
"Ouch! hiss......"
Li Ji carefully turned over on the bed and prepared to get up, but he didn't expect to inadvertently touch the injured muscles and bones, which made him gasp in pain.
Then, the young beast lying at the foot of the bed, with its round eyes open, looked at Li Ji in confusion as if he was moving like a cramp and took a breath, and the movements that stopped from time to time seemed to be dancing a mechanical dance, and the confusion in its eyes was even heavier.
After coming back yesterday, Li Ji was thrown on the bed by the young beast, and he lost the strength to move, and he fell asleep like this, and only now did he wake up.
finally got out of bed, and Li Ji couldn't care about washing his face, anyway, it was still a little difficult for him to move, and there were so many blood clots on his body that he couldn't take care of himself, and he didn't care about the little stain on his face.
The strange behavior in the eyes of the young beast was helpless bitter blood and tears for Li Ji. Although he can barely walk, but the pain that is caused from time to time is not something he can control, if it is so painful all the time, maybe he can grit his teeth and endure it all the time, so as not to behave so weirdly, but the current situation is that the pain came without warning, so that he could not prevent it, and he had to have the strange movement that fell into the eyes of the young beast.
Eventually, after more than three hours, Li Ji ate a pot of healing elixir that was vital to him with the help of the young beast.
Painfully chewing on the jerky in his mouth, his cheeks bulging high. At this moment, Li Ji deeply understood that when he ate dried meat on weekdays, it was equivalent to enjoying happiness. Now, it can only be said that it is a painful ordeal, and it is also an ordeal that has to continue.
Compared to Li Ji's pain, the young beast was smiling so much that the facial features of its little face were almost deformed, and it was gulping down the pieces of meat in the pot and bowl specially made for it.
Originally, Li Ji wanted to eat more in order to recover as soon as possible, but after taking a bite, he realized that this was not realistic for him at present. Therefore, thanks to the fact that he could not eat too much, he was so happy that he suddenly had a lot of extra meat, and he did not forget to smile when he ate the piece of meat in his mouth.
A lunch that should have been eaten in less than half an hour was forced to let Li Ji eat for more than an hour. The young beast who had already licked the pots and bowls on the side just watched Li Ji eat alone and eat alone.
Yes, in the eyes of the young beast, Li Ji's behavior is to eat alone, although in terms of quantity, it is much more than Li Ji's. But who made Li Ji rub the piece of jerky in his hand for half an hour before swallowing it all? For foodies, even if they have eaten it, the process of waiting for others to eat it afterwards is very uncomfortable, especially since it has not eaten much, which makes it even more tormenting.
In short, this lunch ended when both Li Ji and the young beast were not very satisfied.
After eating, Li Ji could already feel the dried flesh of those Saint-level demonic beasts, turning into a stream of warm current to moisten the damaged internal organs, and even the bruised back felt warm and extremely comfortable. At this time, Li Ji realized that the suffering he had suffered just now was worth it, at least not in vain.
After feeling the changes in his body, Li Ji fell into a situation where he had nothing to do for a while, which was another price to pay after being injured in addition to the pain.
With nothing to do, Li Ji thought back that he had been injured too many times in the past few days, and they were not minor injuries, but serious injuries that hurt the muscles and bones. If it weren't for the jerky of the Holy Rank Demon Beast as a backing, he would probably have braided his hair a long time ago. Yesterday's battle taught Li Ji a good lesson, forcing him to change his original cultivation plan. However, when it comes to sparring with young beasts, just practicing fending off the attacks of magic fireballs seems to be too monotonous and not very useful. At this moment, Li Ji suddenly found that the fire attribute resistance was too high, which would also cause a certain amount of trouble, which greatly reduced the effect of his sparring with the young beast, at least there was no strong sense of oppression. But for now, this is the only way to do it, and you can't fight hand-to-hand with the young beast, right? I'm afraid that before I can make a move, I will be pressed to the ground by the young beast with a claw, and it will be the kind of end that I can't move.
There is no other good solution, which is the dilemma that Li Ji is facing at this moment. You can only numbly increase the proportion of blood qi transformed into blood qi from the sparring with young beasts, and then you can endow yourself with more blood power. It's just that this process may be extremely slow. Because Li Ji has been groping alone from beginning to end, even the young beast with inheritance memories can't help.
Since there was nothing to do, Li Ji lay down, or when he was bored, he learned the language of this continent from the young beast. Although after a period of study, he can already speak a lot, but after all, he has not fully mastered it, and the problem of communicating with people after leaving the forest in the future has not been completely solved, so he needs to make persistent efforts. Moreover, Li Ji found that the speed at which he was learning this lingua franca was so strong that he felt terrible. Thinking about it, I am afraid that this is also due to the fact that since he came to this world, he has been living under the threat of death full of unknown dangers, which has kept his brain active at an unprecedented level, which is even stronger than the ancient "head hanging beam, cone thorn stock". After all, it was just the pain of the skin, and now it is facing the danger of life, which is not the same.
......
Three days have passed, and Li Ji's injuries have basically healed, but the price is that the dried meat of the Saint-rank demonic beast in the space ring is more than half smaller. Of course, most of the credit for this belongs to the young beast, who made it more edible than Li Ji?
Today, Li Ji is going to take the young beast to collect some firewood and come back. Since the last time I got some barrels and beds, the leftovers were basically burned as firewood. After so many days, it has long been burned out, and even the breakfast in the morning is still made by the young beast breathing fire all the time.
The space ring has been occupied by the second-level Xuanshui snake, but if this supreme weapon is wasted, and the firewood is carried back by manpower, how long will it be enough to carry it? Therefore, after thinking about it, Li Ji took out the second-level Xuanshui snake in the space ring and threw it in the cave, anyway, the current cave is still safe, and that little smell of blood should not attract the patronage of the demonic beast. After all, the young beast said that there was still its mother's breath in the cave, and the breath of the holy rank demonic beast, even if it was dead, ordinary demonic beasts would not dare to approach it at all.
With the young beast, not long after, Li Ji came to the place where the giant birds that had chased and killed him had been destroyed, and the fallen giant trees were connected into a road like being crushed, and the not clear vision was greatly expanded. At least there is a huge tree that is tall and cloud-shading, which makes people feel less depressing.
Li Ji, who had the space ring, filled the space in the ring after a while. Before leaving, he also carried a small tree trunk on his shoulder.
The task was over, Li Ji turned his head and walked in the direction of the cave, he was already a little impatient to start training with the young beast, if he wasn't worried that he wouldn't have anything to eat tonight, he wouldn't have come to collect firewood first.
It's just that Li Ji had just walked a few steps when a heavy pant of annoyance sounded behind him.
Looking back suspiciously, he saw that the cute young beast was holding a small branch in its mouth, probably seeing Li Ji carrying firewood on his shoulder, it also wanted to bring a firewood back. It's just that, because it was held horizontally in its mouth, the branches that were not short in length were unfortunately stopped by the fallen giant trees on both sides, and the young beast who couldn't pass for a while was a little anxious. The back and forth grinded there, but they couldn't get by.
Li Ji touched his forehead with his hand and lamented: "Alas! This IQ ......"
However, just when Li Ji wanted to remind the young beast.
"Click".
Enraged, the young beast broke the branch in his hand and walked towards him.
"It's not too stupid!"
