"… Water!"
Chu Rui, who was extremely weak, held back for a long time before he gathered all his strength and spat out an extremely weak word.
"Oh, oh!"
The young man, who was wearing a linen shirt with many patches, had very clear eyes. When he heard Chu Rui's voice, he awkwardly shook his head and walked away quickly. He poured a cup of water and brought it over.
After drinking three cups of water, Chu Rui felt that he had regained some vitality. However, his injuries were too serious. After drinking the water, his head tilted and he fainted again.
When he woke up again, he did not know how long it was. After waking up this time, his condition was obviously much better than the last time. Although his body was still in pain and his mind was in a mess, at least he remembered who he was and why he was here.
Am I not dead?
Even though his injuries were so serious that he could not even move his fingers, and his body was in a terrible condition. However, the pain and weakness that came from his body made him feel very carefree and happy. He wanted to laugh. This was a carefree laugh that came from the bottom of his heart and he could not stop it. However, he was too weak. He could not even do such a simple action. He could only twitch the corner of his mouth. Moreover, such an action caused him to sweat profusely from the pain. However, he could not help it. Although he did not know how he escaped from the claws of the Heavenly Demon and kept his life, it was obviously not the time to think about it. Being alive was the best.
As the saying goes, pull one hair and the whole body will be affected! Although it seemed to be an insignificant laugh, it brought the whole body into it. His current condition was already bad enough. Although he did not know how long he had rested, he was still so weak. Now that he laughed, his whole body was affected. His body, which originally needed to be completely recuperated, felt like it was going to fall apart because of this action. However, Chu Rui could not stop now. He wanted to laugh, but he could not stop. Even if it was unbearably painful, he had to laugh. He had to feel the reality of the pain at this moment. Because of the pain, he knew that he was really alive.
This willful behavior led to Chu Rui fainting again after a few seconds!
When he opened his eyes again, he felt that his body was much better. At least he could move a little, and the pain was not as intense as before. He tilted his head slightly and looked outside. The sky was already bright.
Moving his body, Chu Rui wanted to get up. However, he realized that he couldn't do it now. Moving his body was the limit.
Huff huff …
After taking two deep breaths, Chu Rui finally gave up.
The room was very messy, and the ceiling was also very old. There were even a few holes in it. The bed he was on was also very cold, and the blanket covering his body was covered with many patches. There was also an indescribable smell. Not only that, but it was also very heavy and not warm at all. F * ck, even if it was a black-hearted merchant, they wouldn't come up with such a thing to fool people, right?
Taking a deep breath and feeling the humidity in the room, Chu Rui couldn't help but frown. Although he was now seriously injured and needed to rest and recuperate. However, under such conditions in this room, it was really not possible. Even if he recovered, there might be a lingering illness. One had to know that the current him didn't have a physical body that was even stronger than the Golden Body Treasure Body. To put it nicely, he didn't have the strength to truss a chicken, and his body was very weak. To put it bluntly, he was a sick person, a sickly person!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a fragrant smell came, and Chu Rui's stomach couldn't help but react and rumble.
"You're awake? You must be hungry. Come, have some porridge! "
It was the same simple peasant boy from before who came in with a bowl of porridge. Looking at Chu Rui who had opened his eyes on the bed, he revealed a simple and honest smile.
Rui did not say a word, allowing the young man to feed him spoonful after spoonful of porridge.
"Have a good rest, I'll come again at night!"
The boy covered him with a blanket and took the empty bowl out.
"Thank you!"
Although he was very weak, he was very sincere. The boy's hearing was obviously different from ordinary people. Previously, when he woke up and asked for water, Chu Rui already knew. Hearing his words, the boy smiled, revealing his white teeth. Although he looked simple and honest, he was also very bright.
The boy walked out of the door, and Chu Rui closed his eyes. Even though he didn't eat, the porridge was very thin. It was just a few extra rice grains in the rice soup. He didn't need to chew or swallow at all, and it flowed directly into his mouth and into his intestines. However, even so, this project still consumed a lot of his energy. That's right, just being served a bowl of porridge like this made him tired.
Kindness must be repaid, and hatred must be avenged!
If people respect me, I'll repay them tenfold!
Chu Rui had always followed this principle of being aloof from worldly affairs. This boy saved his life. Although he didn't know the cause and effect, there was no doubt about it. This room and the patches on the boy's body showed his condition. Just now, when he was drinking that bowl of porridge, although the young man tried his best to endure it, his eyes were very sharp. With a glance, he saw the way the young man's throat moved. It was obvious that the young man was swallowing saliva. Also, the desire in his eyes. He had seen many hungry people thirsting for food. When he was an assassin, many children in war-torn and poor countries had such a gaze. He couldn't be more familiar with it.
For Chu Rui, he didn't know how many delicacies he had eaten. All the famous delicacies in the world, he had eaten almost all of them. Those that weren't famous in the world and were only hidden in a corner, maybe in an inconspicuous town, maybe in a village, or maybe a farmer's homemade delicacies, he had eaten many of them.
However, none of them were as delicious as the bowl of porridge just now. It was more like rice soup. He didn't eat for the taste, but for the goodness and kindness!
This cold bed, this bed that wasn't warm and emitted a strange smell, it was very likely that this was the boy's resting place! That bowl of extremely thin porridge was probably that young man's rations. If he ate it, he would have to starve!
For a total stranger, he could do such a thing! This kind of favor was very heavy. In terms of quantity, it was negligible. Such a poor bed, quilt, and food, how much money was it worth? Maybe even the place where beggars lived was warmer than this. The food they asked for would be more delicious and sumptuous. But in terms of quality, it was the most precious because it was the boy's everything.
