Chapter 49: Live For Me
“This…”
Looking around at the surrounding gazes, even with Su Jiu’s thick skin, she couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. She had just said her attributes were wrong and she didn’t have healing skills, and this slap in the face came so suddenly.
Just as she was愣ing in place, the girl named Lin Ling wiped her eyes with her sleeve, got up, suddenly grabbed Su Jiu’s hand, and knelt down with a “plop”.
“Please.” Accompanying this hoarse voice, perhaps all the girl’s pride had vanished, leaving only a slight breath.
“Oh my, what are you doing…” Su Jiu quickly helped her up, gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall with her thumb, and then sighed softly, “I’ll do my best, but I’ll say it clearly, I really don’t know a single skill.”
Lowering her head, Lin Ling’s voice was very low, but her excitement could be felt. She repeated herself again, her whole body slumping onto Su Jiu’s shoulder, as if asleep: “Thank you… thank you.”
After a busy night, she was too tired.
“Alas… sleep well.”
Looking at the girl’s profile, Su Jiu thought of students of the same age in her previous life, but they were completely different. Here, they started to come into contact with monsters from now on, and some of them had to resist the invasion of monsters after graduating from university.
Although there was no danger of hearing the Tao in the morning and dying in the evening, how much difference was there? In such a world, perhaps even fast-paced love would become solidified.
Immediately, Su Jiu handed the girl named Lin Ling over to Xiao Yu. They had saved her, and it was only right for her to help them. She continued to inquire, “How should I proceed?”
“You really don’t know the Green Cotton Technique?” Xiao Yu placed the sleeping Lin Ling flat on another mat, turned around slightly, and asked with some confusion in her eyes.
In her opinion, with Su Jiu’s vigorous vitality, let alone a dispelling skill like the Green Cotton Technique, even the high-level warrior’s exclusive Spring Breeze Transformation Rain, a group AoE, was not impossible to use.
“I haven’t systematically learned this. Our schools don’t have separate classes. I only know this little Rejuvenation Technique.”
Su Jiu explained again. She walked to A Dun’s side, replacing Lin Ling’s previous spellcasting. A dark green light emanated from her hand, gently gliding over the wound on his leg. The powerful vitality actually stopped the bleeding.
“This little Rejuvenation Technique is more powerful than many people’s Rejuvenation Technique!”
“A Dun might be saved.”
This scene stunned everyone, either with admiration or surprise.
“Brother Dun, are you okay?” Xiao You showed a faint joy on her face and was about to step forward to ask about the situation, but was grabbed by Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu’s expression remained solemn. She sighed with a slight shake of her head: “It’s just a temporary fix, not a cure. Although the bleeding has stopped for now, the fire poison has already invaded the whole body. If it’s not cleared in time, it’s unknown whether he can survive until tomorrow.”
Then she turned to Su Jiu again. After a moment of silence, she spoke with difficulty: “Jiusu, I have the method for using the Green Cotton Technique. Can I ask you to learn it?”
Xiao Yu knew that her request was very unreasonable. After all, where could anyone learn this physique-demanding skill in such a short time?
Even if there were, it would only be possible in places like the imperial capital.
“Give me…”
Su Jiu nodded slightly. It’s always good to have more skills. For emotional and logical reasons, she would try.
Before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a weak male voice: “Is Ling’er asleep?”
Everyone looked over. It was A Dun lying on the bed. He ignored the dissuasion of the two supporting girls around him, struggled to sit up, then slowly stood up, and then slowly walked out of the tent.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu frowned and shouted from the spot: “Stop! You’re injured, where are you going?”
A Dun’s tall body shrank a little. He stopped, said with a bit of casualness, “Since I’m going to die anyway, I might as well die outside, where Ling’er can’t see…”
Saying that, he continued to walk outside. At this moment, Xiao Yu also fell silent. Xiao You next to her kept tugging at her sleeve, saying anxiously, “Class leader, hurry and stop him, there are wolf packs still lurking outside, it’s very dangerous.”
Xiao Yu glanced at her, shook her head and sighed, “His grandpa and my grandpa were comrades-in-arms. I’ve known since I was a child that he’s always been like this. Once he decides something, he won’t change it.”
Su Jiu glanced at Xiao Yu, her expression blank. She extinguished the green light in her hand, flicked her hand, and followed him out. She quickly came to A Dun’s back and asked coldly, “Do you want to see her cry her eyes out when she wakes up?”
The petite figure formed a sharp contrast with the tall body, but the momentum of both was completely opposite.
A Dun paused, turned to look at Su Jiu. He had never seen this girl before. Her flawless appearance was so much like a mermaid from a fairy tale. Then he slowly met her gaze.
Serious and icy.
“But…”
Then A Dun sighed, his brows slightly lowered, he didn’t dare to meet her gaze again, paused, and smiled with difficulty: “If I die by her side, won’t she be even more unbearable?”
“I will save you,” Su Jiu said lightly, with some unexplainable confidence in her tone. It was only a matter of mastering the Green Cotton Technique, and she was confident she could do it.
“Heh~ Thank you for your kindness.”
A Dun nodded slightly and turned to continue walking. He didn’t believe anyone could learn the Green Cotton Technique within a day. It was too painful to die by his lover’s side.
He could die on the battlefield, but he would never die so miserably. If he could kill a Scarlet Flame Wolf before dying, that would be good too.
“Stop! Do you know how many people are waiting for you to recover?”
Su Jiu’s voice became clear and cold from weak. An invisible pressure filled the surroundings. She was obviously a little angry.
“Go back, just tell Ling’er that A Dun is gone.” A Dun waved his hand and continued to walk unsteadily, about to leave the vicinity of the camp.
“Jiusu, come back, just let him go.”
Xiao Yu’s voice also came from the other side of the camp, sounding a bit helpless.
Ignoring the two, Su Jiu remembered Lin Ling’s red eyes earlier. Her eyelids twitched slightly. With a few brisk steps, she arrived beside A Dun.
“Bang!” A dull thud sounded.
Su Jiu’s petite fist hit A Dun’s chest. The intense pain made A Dun’s eyes widen in disbelief. He looked at Su Jiu, why… aren’t you here to save me?
“Don’t say anything, live like a man for me!”
Su Jiu grabbed his collar. A fierce look appeared on her delicate face. She hated people who so carelessly squandered the love others had for them. Sometimes, the “healing” that protagonists did in anime was the most foolish.
Stubborn people like this can’t be solved with one punch. If there is, then two punches. —The Priestess, Jiusu.
“Bang…” A Dun held on for about a few seconds before he was about to fall. Su Jiu kicked him over, and the green light lit up in her hand again. She dragged him towards the original tent.
