<h4>Chapter 2179: Are You Hungry?</h4>
Ning Shu didn’t show any disdain for the food. There was no water in the tomb because of the drought demon.
The rations had been softened by the water, so it actually made it easier to swallow them.
The drought demon stared straight at Ning Shu. He looked ferocious and his ckish-red nails glittered. Ning Shu was under a lot of mental stress and in the end, it was pretty hard for her to swallow the food.
Ning Shu tried tomunicate with the drought demon because it was said that all things had a soul, but she didn’t know if the drought demon who only cared about drinking blood had a soul.
Ning Shu asked him, “Are you hungry?”
Ning Shu raised the rations in her hand and stared at the drought demon.
He stared nkly at Ning Shu.
Ning Shu thought for a while, then threw the lump of rations to the drought demon. Itnded in front of him with a ‘plop’ and became tofu pulp.
The drought demon stretched out his long fingernails and poked the foaming rations. When he poked the rations, a hole was poked into the ground.
Ning Shu’s facial muscles trembled as she watched.
Oh my god!
Was she going to fail this mission?
If she failed, her soul would be obliterated. Ning Shu wasn’t afraid of this. After all, she had a protective talisman to protect herself, but Ning Shu was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to return to the system space.
She was more afraid that she would never be able to return to the system space.
Ning Shu was heartbroken. She had never ced much hope on getting 2333’s help, but she hadn’t expected to encounter such a situation.
If she’d known that fusing two pearls would create such a situation, Ning Shu wouldn’t have fused them.
She couldn’t even go home now.
Ning Shu took out a medicine bottle. The bottle had already been saturated with water and the wound medicine inside had turned into a paste.
Ning Shu lifted her sleeve and saw that Gu Rui’s dagger had dug a bloody hole in her hand. Ning Shu put the medicine on the wound.
She hissed from the pain. If she managed to escape, she would definitely stab Gu Rui’s body full of holes.
Ning Shu finished treating her wound. Seeing the drought demon staring at her, she decided to stare back. She stared until she felt cross-eyed. Finally, she curled her lips wryly.
“Go y with this.” Ning Shu rolled the empty medicine bottle to the drought demon.
The drought demon poked the bottle and it was crushed into a powder.
Ning Shu: …
Under the night pearls’ light, the entire tomb was as bright as day.
Ning Shu noticed that the grass that had withered under the drought demon’s influence had be lush and verdant again.
She was astonished. As soon as a drought demon appeared, it would cause the ground to turn bare for a thousand miles. However, this grass was still growing and there were even some flowers blooming.
What kind of treasure had this much power?
Where was this treasure hidden?
Ning Shu didn’t care about any treasures though. She wanted to leave so badly that she almost burst into tears.
“Can’t you just let me go?”
“…”
“Do you know how I can get out of here?”
“…”
“Did you know that you’re really ugly?”
“…”
Ning Shu stopped talking after a while. Talking dried out her mouth, but there was no more water to drink.
The drought demon made a gurgling sound like there was phlegm caught in his throat.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes.
The drought demon took a step toward Ning Shu and she immediately took the talisman and raised it towards the drought demon.
The drought demon stopped and looked at the talisman with a little fear.
Ning Shu slowly walked out of the pce and the drought demon followed her.
Respected sir— Ning Shu almost wanted to kowtow— can’t we leave our past on the Jianghu and go our separate ways?
She was really sick of meeting these extremely strong butpletely brainless things.
