She cried as she pulled out the bullet shell from her flesh.
"It's out, it's out..." Ye Ziqin cried tears of joy as she held the bloody bullet shell in front of Zhuo Bufan.
Zhuo Bufan's lips and face were pale, but a faint smile appeared on her lips. "Don't be so happy. Help me stop the bleeding, or I'll bleed to death."
"Oh." Ye Ziqin blushed and hurriedly took out the licorice from her backpack. She chewed it and applied it to Zhuo Bufan's wound.
By the time she was done, Ye Ziqin was already drenched in sweat. Zhuo Bufan looked at her and said, "You hide in the cave. I'm going out for a while." Then, Zhuo Bufan stood up and strode outside.
"What are you going to do? That tiger might be nearby." Ye Ziqin frowned and asked.
Zhuo Bufan said, "If the two of us stay here, we'll only be waiting for death. I can't kill it in my current state. I've fought with it before, so it's most familiar with my scent. I'll lure it away..."
"Then won't you be in danger?" Ye Ziqin clenched her fists, her eyes filled with worry.
Zhuo Bufan smiled faintly and shook his head. He only left a straight back as he rushed out.
Ye Ziqin sat on the ground weakly. She knew that she would only be a burden to Zhuo Bufan if she stayed by his side. She lowered her eyes and looked at the lotus pendant on her chest. "Zhuo Bufan, take this with you!"
Ye Ziqin rushed out and opened the pendant in her hand.
"I almost forgot about this!" A sharp light flashed in Zhuo Bufan's eyes. She took the pendant and ran towards the source of the roar.
In the dark of the night, the white-browed tiger jumped on the protruding rocks and then jumped down from the ground. It let out a low growl as it sniffed the faint scent of blood in the air. It was as if it knew that it had been tricked by Zhuo Bufan. Zhuo Bufan was seriously injured and was at the end of its tether. That was why it turned back to look for Zhuo Bufan.
Just as the tiger let out a low growl, it suddenly saw a bare-chested human figure walking out from the darkness. It was the human who had beaten it up so badly in the cave that it felt dizzy.
"Roar …" The tiger raised its head and let out a deafening roar. It stared at Zhuo Bufan with bloodthirsty eyes. Its sharp claws popped out of its paws and scratched the ground.
"B * stard, I will kill you today." Zhuo Bufan held the lotus jade pendant in his hand and took out a wet talisman from his trouser pocket.
Suddenly, the tiger opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Zhuo Bufan. It was determined to pounce on Zhuo Bufan and bite his neck. At that moment, Zhuo Bufan threw the jade pendant wrapped in the talisman at the tiger.
The talisman turned into a fireball. Just as the tiger was about two meters away from Zhuo Bufan, it was hit by the talisman and exploded. The tiger was blown away and all its fur was set on fire.
"Roar!" The tiger screamed in pain. It rushed into the cold pond to put out the fire on its body and ran towards the North Mountain.
Zhuo Bufan picked up the jade pendant on the ground. Even though the spiritual energy in his body was temporarily sealed, the jade pendant still had spiritual energy to activate the explosive talisman. It was a pity that the talisman was wet. Otherwise, he could have killed the animal directly. How could he let it escape?
"I will come and find you when I recover." Zhuo Bufan mumbled to himself.
The next day.
The sky was clear. Ye Ziqin opened her eyes. She was too tired last night. She did not know when she fell asleep. Suddenly, her eyes widened. "Zhuo Bufan!"
Thinking of Zhuo Bufan, she ran towards the entrance of the cave. However, she suddenly stopped and hid behind a rock. She covered her mouth.
Zhuo Bufan had already put on his shirt. He was grabbing wild flowers and stuffing them into his mouth.
"He must be too hungry. He gave me the green fruits he plucked, but he is eating wild flowers to fill his stomach." Ye Ziqin's eyes were red. In fact, she had not fulfilled her responsibilities as a wife since they got married and divorced.
In fact, Zhuo Bufan was very excited now. Last night, he could not see the surroundings clearly. This morning, he found that there was an ice jade flower growing next to the cave. It was a kind of elixir that could quickly heal internal injuries.
Although the Reiki acupuncture point was still blocked and it might take a few days to break through, Zhuo Bufan's spiritual energy was gradually recovering. He could soon regain the strength of the first level of Covert Power. At that time, he could leave the valley.
Ye Ziqin was afraid that going out now would hurt his self-esteem. She stayed in the cave for a while and walked out. Zhuo Bufan was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Looking at the slanted cross-shaped wound on Zhuo Bufan's left cheek, Ye Ziqin bit her lips. If it were not for her, Zhuo Bufan would not have been disfigured.
"I'm going to get something to eat." After saying that, Ye Ziqin did not dare to look at Zhuo Bufan again. She walked towards the pond. She felt that there should be fish in the water. She could not let Zhuo Bufan eat wild flowers and grass again.
After half an hour, Zhuo Bufan stood up. He felt that his body had regained strength. Without the effect of the ice jade flower, he would have to rest for a few days to recover.
"Hmm?"
Zhuo Bufan's eyes fell on Ye Ziqin. She saw that Ye Ziqin was barefoot in a tributary stream next to the cold pond. She bent down and seemed to be catching fish. With a splash, she fell into the water.
"Let me do it." Zhuo Bufan could not help but laugh. He held two stones in his hand and threw them into the water. Two fish floated to the surface.
The two of them started a bonfire. Zhuo Bufan cut bamboo skewers to grill the fish. Ye Ziqin ate the fish and hesitated. "Zhuo Bufan, am I not good at anything?"
"No. If you can't do it well, you won't be able to manage a company as big as Tianmei." Zhuo Bufan said with a smile.
After eating, Zhuo Bufan clapped his hands and stood up. He looked towards the north. The big worm ran in that direction yesterday.
Ye Ziqin also stood up. Looking at Zhuo Bufan's back, she struggled and said softly, "Zhuo Bufan, we..."
"I injured the tiger yesterday. Let's go and have a look." Zhuo Bufan said and walked towards the north.
Ye Ziqin clenched her fists. Did she speak too softly? Did Zhuo Bufan not hear her?
Zhuo Bufan shook his head. He could only pretend that he did not hear Ye Ziqin. After all, the two of them did not live in the same world. He was afraid that Ye Ziqin would only bring him trouble.
After walking for about an hour, they found the place where Da Hu was hiding in a crack in the ground. However, Da Hu was already dead, and all of his fur was charred.
"Fire element!" Zhuo Bufan's eyes brightened. This tiger had fire element in its body. Yesterday, he had not recovered much of his strength, so he did not notice it. You almost gained intelligence and could speak human language. Too bad you met me.
