Chapter 41: Pleasure in hardship
There was no sun rising or setting in the dungeon, so Zhou Han and Yu Luoxia could only rely on their own estimates to judge how much time had passed.
Zhou Han's estimate is closer to the truth: about three days.
Although the way of heaven and humanity he practices is extremely mysterious, it cannot let him know how much time has passed in the outside world. The basis for his judgment is only the number of "treatments" he has received.
After being thrown back into the dungeon for the sixth time, feeling the severe pain in his body, Zhou Han knew that the evening of the third day had almost passed.
"How are you feeling?"
Yu Luoxia's words were full of worry: "There's nothing wrong with her."
Zhou Han smiled slightly and said angrily: "I don't feel any discomfort at all. Thanks to him, the old disease in my body has really improved a lot."
Zhou Han did not lie to Yu Luoxia.
Although the old man was crazy, his medical attainments were really high. After a strange treatment, his broken Dantian Qihai actually showed signs of healing.
A blessing in disguise, that's probably it.
It is undoubtedly an extremely exciting thing to feel that the root of the disease that has tortured me for many years is being removed.
So Zhou Han was in a very good mood, and even the pain from the broken and reconnected bones was much lighter.
The most important thing is that he finally figured out something, something that he couldn't figure out before.
"Do you know how that old madman found me?"
Yu Luoxia was quite surprised and asked: "How did you find it?"
"The wealth that old madman talks about is the five-tailed red fox. When I saw his elixir, I immediately remembered it." Zhou Han said with a self-deprecating smile, "I think the five-tailed red fox came from him.
His men escaped and lived in the mountains for several years, but they didn't expect that the old madman had been looking for him. Unfortunately, when he found him, it was already a pile of broken ice."
Yu Luoxia suddenly understood. Thinking of the old man's expression when he saw those broken ices, she couldn't help but smile. She seemed to have forgotten that she was in such a situation thanks to the old man.
She suddenly thought of the mountain village, the pharmacy, and the lovely people in the pharmacy. Her smile was quickly replaced by panic: "When the old madman saw the five-tailed red fox dead and sensed the aura of the fairy body from it, wouldn't he go to the village to ask questions?"
,Then they..."
Zhou Han spread his hands and said, "Maybe our whereabouts were exposed like this."
Yu Luoxia clenched her fists, not knowing what to say.
Zhou Han comforted him: "Don't worry, brother Yao is there."
"But Yao Chong's hand is still injured."
"Don't underestimate the descendants of Wu'an Jianfeng." Zhou Han said with a smile, "If I guess correctly, the old madman went crazy in the village."
This time Yu Luoxia was really surprised and asked: "How is this possible?"
"It sounds impossible, but it actually happened." Zhou Han said with a smile, "I provoked him a little, and the old madman revealed his secret."
When Yu Luoxia heard this, her face was full of worry, she held his hand and said, "He is a madman."
"The madman's mind is difficult to figure out, but it is not traceable." Zhou Han said with a smile, "If I hadn't figured out his thoughts, how could we still live so comfortably?"
Yes, compared to when they were just thrown into this dungeon, their living environment has been greatly improved. Their daily food is no longer just brown rice, but occasionally meat, and there are no longer those nasty drugs.
.There is also a toilet separated by wooden boards in the cell. The old madman even cleans the toilet every day.
Being imprisoned can still be so comfortable, I'm afraid they are the only ones who have this kind of treatment.
Thinking of this, the clouds in Yu Luoxia's heart also dispersed a lot, and she asked curiously: "How did you do it?"
"It's very simple. Doesn't that old lunatic want my fairy spirit body?" The smile on Zhou Han's lips became even brighter. If Yu Luoxia could see it now, she would definitely find that smile very hateful. "I kept reminding him
, I am a fairy spirit body, and I am also the only fairy spirit body you can catch. There will never be another store after passing this village. If you are confident and have the ability, go to Lingxiao Peak to catch the fairy spirit body~"
Hearing the inflection of the last sentence, Yu Luoxia couldn't bear it any longer, and her laughter continued, like the sound of a silver bell, which was pleasant to the ear. After laughing, she did not forget to give a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of you.
Zhou Han."
Lingxiao Peak is a settlement area for the immortal spirits left on the mainland. At the top of it is the Holy Pavilion. If an immortal goes up to stir up trouble, there is a chance that his body will be wiped out. What can a seventh-level practitioner do?
Perhaps only Zhou Han could do this to disgust an old lunatic whose strength surpassed many of theirs.
"Ashamed, ashamed." Zhou Han replied with a smile, still feeling a little guilty.
After all, he hasn't finished speaking yet.
When he was forcibly treated by the old lunatic, the old man mentioned Yu Luoxia and imagined making her into the second Five Poison Puppet, so at that time, he made his words clear.
"She already has a little fairy spirit body in her belly. If you want to get a fairy spirit body, you have to treat her like an ancestor. If anything happens to her, I, the fairy spirit body, will go to the ghost gate first to report.
You will never get the immortal spirit body."
As a result, he added several more fractures to his chest, but fortunately, his life was not injured. The old man's almost crazy obsession with the fairy spirit body failed to make him truly murderous.
But for Zhou Han and Yu Luoxia, they would rather be with the tiger or deal with that nonsense person than continue to live under the same roof with this old madman.
Because of his immortal spirit body, the old man has no trouble for them for the time being, but who knows which day he will go crazy?
Zhou Han bought Yu Luoxia ten months of safe time. Are ten months really safe?
What's more, Zhou Han's life will probably be lost in the hands of that old madman in four days.
Only now, both of them intentionally or unintentionally avoid the topic of death.
For them, in this dungeon, they supported each other and felt a sense of warmth.
The old man came again to deliver a meal, and this time he was extremely lucky. There were three wild vegetables in the wild vegetable soup.
Zhou Han took a piece of wild vegetable, chewed it carefully, swallowed the food in his mouth with satisfaction, and said, "The old madman really doesn't know how to make soup."
"My cooking is much better than his." Yu Luoxia said with a smile, "When you get to Zhongzhou City in the future, do you want to try it?"
"It's a dream come true." Zhou Han said with a smile, "If I can eat the vegetable soup made by Miss Yu myself, I will be truly lucky."
Yu Luoxia's face turned red and she spat: "How could you be influenced by Lu Linxi?"
Zhou Han did not hide his laughter and said: "That's the truth."
Then he was punched again in the chest.
The punch was weak, like cotton.
But almost none of his bones were intact.
Cold sweat dripped down his face, but his laughter was still loud.
He was really happy in his heart.
Maybe, this is pain and happiness?
