Chapter 121-I have half a Fasting Pill, do you want it?
Su Clans Ah Shilu turned her head, too embarrassed to look at Song Shuhang.
Looks like she didnt prepare amy food or water.
Asking others was never as good asking yourself. Song Shuhang checked his body, and found a bottle with six Qi and Blood Pills, one Stink Pill, several treasure seals, money and his handphone.
But these things couldnt be eaten as food, and Qi amd Blood Pills couldnt alleviate hunger.
Hmm? This is... Song Shuhang finally came up with a pill.
It was a Fasting Pill used before! A few days before senior Medine Master had casually given it to him for lunch. He had only used it once, and had kept it afterwards.
Luckily, he didnt randomly eat it in the past few days.
Song Shuhang had a look of satisfaction as he popped the Fasting Pill into his mouth. A delicious taste spread through his mouth, and his stomachs hunger completely vanished. After his stomach felt slightly full, Song Shuhang took the Fasting Pill out, gingerly wiping the saliva away.
This could perhaps still save a life in the future if it was kept, Song Shuhang thus thought.
Gugugu...this was the weird sound made by a stomach?
Huh? My stomach is already full, why is it still rumbling? The Fasting Pill wouldnt have already expired, right? Song Shuhang rubbed his stomach in confusion. It was full, and there werent any problems!
Gugugu...there was another chain of rumbling sounds.
Song Shuhang suspiciously looked at the miss Su Clans Ah Shilu who had proclaimed that she could fast. Ah Shilu turned away in embarrassment, blushing.
Song Shuhang thought about it, testingly offering the Fasting Pill in his hand. If you dont mind, do you want to try it?
No need, I can fa... Rumbling sounds interrupted Ah Shilu.
Immediately, Ah Shilu grit her teeth. My realm is different from yours. Even if I completely swallow this half a Fasting Pill, my hunger would only be slightly alleviated.
Then you eat it. Song Shuhang said. Otherwise, if her little stomach kept rumbling, Song Shuhang would feel uncomfortable all over.
Ah Shilu accepted the Fasting Pill, and after thinking it through. When were past this danger, Ill repay this Fasting Pill to you a hundred fold!
Alright alright. Song Shuhang acted as if he was dealing with a child as he pacified her.
Ah Shilu sighed. She popped the pill in her mouth like she would do with medicine. With this pill to fill her up, her little stomach would finally stop chanting all those gugugu sounds
Song Shuhang took out his phone to open the chat software, and wanted to log into the Nine Provinces Number One group to take a look. Roughly by now, Su Clans Ah Qi should have hurried over here, and he could send over a distress call.
But when he opened it, he realised he didnt have a signal.
Huh? Theres no signal? Song Shuhang asked suspiciously.
Of course theres no signal. If it didnt block off all messages, how could it be a secret room? Ah Shilu answered.
Then, she saw Song Shuhangs phone interface, and saw a familiar chat group in Song Shuhangs table of groups. She said in surprise, Nine Provinces Number One group?
Huh? You didnt know? You didnt take note of the group in this past few days? Song Shuhang asked back.
I ran away from home...going onto the chat software would expose my position. I didnt even bring my phone out, or else Ah Qi would come find me. Its very troublesome. Ah Shilu responded as if this was obvious.
No. Even if you dont go online, Ah Qi can still find you. Song Shuhang ridiculed in his heart. Senior Ah Qi was already on the way to the Jiangnan area now.
Because there was no signal, Song Shuhang silently switched off his phone. He didnt plan to tell Ah Shilu that senior Ah Qi was already coming over to the Jiangnan area to find her. It was still safer for Ah Shilu to be brought home quickly.
Did you guess my identity? Did Ah Qi request everyone on the group to help him? Ah Shilu suddenly asked. If this man was a new member of the Nine Provinces Number One group, then he would likely have guessed her identity already.
... Song Shuhangs face went stiff, trying to decide whether to fob her off with a white lie.
No need to deny it. Youre definitely not suited to lie. Your expression has already told me the answer. Ah Shilu sighed.
... Miss, youre not Zhou Yaya alright? Dont just casually guess the correct answer from someones expression! Its so rude! Ill have no more face if you do this!
Will you say that Im here to Ah Qi? Ah Shilu wrapped her arms around her knees, asking softly.
... Probably?
Someone as rottenly good as you, will definitely tell Ah Qi. Ah Shilu answered her own question.
If youre going to say everything I have to say, what do I get to say?
The two sides quietened down
After a while without words...
In the end it was Song Shuhang who broke the silence, asking, Why did you run away from the Su Clan? Wouldnt you be able to get a better treatment at the Su Clan?
He remembered that on the day of the Heavenly Tribulation, Su Clans Ah Qi had said on the group that Ah Shilu had only suffered some slight wounds, which could be recovered when she went back to the clan. If that was so, why did she run away? And why did she have to regularly get injections?
Because, Im about to die...In about twenty days, I will die. Ah Shilu said peacefully, she hugged her knees. Su Clan records have no methods to save me. Ah Qi also cant. My injuries arent just from the Heavenly Tribulation, but also some cultivation deviation I had before. This times Heavenly Tribulation just worsened my previous injuries.
Lets change this topic. I hate this topic. Ah Shilu suddenly stopped explaining. Yu may my name already. My name is Ah Shilu. This is also my Daoist title. What about you? You havent introduced yourself to me yet.
Song Shuhang.
Daoist title? Ah Shilu asked.
Daoist title... I dont have one temporarily. Ill think about it in a few days? Song Shuhang sighed. This had to be quickly settled. Or else once all the seniors recognised him as Great Pressure of Mt Books, itll be hard to make them change it.
Youll think of it yourself? Which senior in the group are you apprenticing under? Your master isnt giving you your Daoist title? Ah Shilu asked suspiciously. Formally accepted disciples would always be given their Daoist titles.
And for a disciple that would be introduced to the Nine Provinces Number One group, it must be one greatly favoured by that senior. How could he have no Daoist title?
About that, the process I joined the Nine Provinces Number One group with was rather...coincidental. Song Shuhang scratched his head, and began to narrate how he had joined the group to Ah Shilu.
Song Shuhang quietly explained, and Ah Shilu hugged her knees as she listened quietly.
Its roughly something like that. Song Shuhang shrugged his shoulders, saying.
You...chose yourself to be a cultivator? Ah Shilu looked at Song Shuhang. Could you not be aware of the dangers? Like, the Heavenly Tribulation I met, and much more! There are uncountable dangers!
I know. When I chose to be a cultivator I already knew about the Heavenly Tribulation you met. Actually, I even witnessed that Heavenly Tribulation lightning that formed. Song Shuhang said calmly.
The why did you choose to become a cultivator? Ah Shilu opened her eyes wide, staring at Song Shuhang.
Why? Song Shuhang thought about it. He answered, Perhaps, I wasnt satisfied with living this life ordinarily.
Before becoming a cultivator, the only thing that made me happy in this world, was to put my all into helping people. If I didnt meet the Nine Provinces Number One group, perhaps Ill live an ordinary life like normal people. But, that is not the life I want...I dont have much ambitions, but I like a magnificent and exciting life. Even if there are the terrifying Lightning Tribulations, even if there are the calamities brought forth from evil cultivators, I will never ever regret my choice.
Song Shuhang realised he was unable to use any appropriate phrases to describe what he felt. All he wanted to express was that the path of cultivation was one he would never regret!
Ah Shilu rolled her eyes. I suddenly feel that there is something very off about you when you act passionate. But...its quite interesting. Prepare, were about to leave.
Her pain from her injuries had subsided even earlier. Now, her body had accumulated some small amounts of True Qi, enough to deal with the Immortal Farming Sect Uncle!
