Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

Zhao Zitong's expression remained calm, as if the person who said this was not her.

Gu Xing didn't refuse and asked directly.

"where?"

"arm."

Zhao Zitong stretched out her arm and rolled up her sleeves, and then Gu Xing saw a hideous wound on her arm.

The location of the wound seemed familiar, so Gu Xing asked.

"The wound from last time?"

"Yeah." Zhao Zitong simply responded, and after a pause, he continued, "The wound hasn't healed yet, and just now a blood fish worm has drilled into it. It's numb... Could you please help me deal with it?"

It can be seen that she seldom asks for help. Even if she is injured, she will probably be like a lone wolf, silently shrinking into a corner and licking herself.

I have only become somewhat familiar with Gu Xing in the past few days, so I asked him for help.

However, given her personality, she wouldn't come to me for help with something as trivial as treating a wound.

Gu Xing was surprised in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged. He just focused the water flow to help her clean the wound.

And when he controlled the water to fall on her arm, he knew why Zhao Zitong came to him for help to treat her wound.

Her injuries were too severe.

Although it looked nothing on the surface, the blood fish worms had drilled several holes directly under her skin.

This also resulted in her arm being almost disabled.

But even with such a severe injury, there was basically no change in the expression on her face. If it wasn't facial paralysis, then her mental toughness would have surprised Gu Xing.

Seeing Gu Xing's surprised look, Zhao Zitong understood that Gu Xing had seen her injuries, so she spoke softly.

"Don't worry about the wound, just help me clean it."

At this time, Gu Xing also saw her other clenched hand and sighed in his heart.

It seems that it will still hurt, but it's bearable.

However, Gu Xing ignored what she said.

It would be fine if he didn't see it, but since he saw it, he is half a friend, so there is no reason to ignore it.

So, after a quick cleanup, Gu Xing helped her expel the corrosive force left by the blood fish worms.

This is naturally quite troublesome, but for Gu Xing who has practiced the Xuanyi Jue, it is not a big problem.

After all, under the terrifying perception, no matter how deeply those corrosive forces are hidden, they cannot escape Gu Xing's cleansing.

It's because this is inside Zhao Zitong's body that he has to be very careful, and that's why it takes some time.

While treating the wounds, Gu Xing also used low-level Taoist techniques such as hydrotherapy and water healing to help the wounds recover.

Seeing that he was doing more than just cleaning the wound, Zhao Zitong was about to pull his hand away, while speaking.

"Don't deal with it. I don't have any money."

"No need for money." Gu Xing said without raising his head.

But Zhao Zitong still wanted to pull her hand free, but her strength was not as good as Gu Xing's. In addition, she was seriously injured, and her arm was firmly clamped by Gu Xing, unable to move.

"do not move."

Seeing that Zhao Zitong was still trying to struggle, Gu Xing had to yell at her in a low voice, and only then did she calm down.

At this moment, there was a sudden vibration. Gu Xing looked up suddenly and found that the Ruyi Treasure Ship had landed and stopped in an open space.

Not far from the open space was the bone-eating fish that fell from the sky.

The bone-eroding dragon fish had a strong body. Even after falling from such a high altitude, its body was not damaged much. Instead, it smashed a big hole in the ground.

The rainwater flowed from the ground along the slope into the pit. It was estimated that it would not be long before a new lake would appear here.

At this time, Kang Yong called some servants and walked towards the big pit.

This is not a habit of dealing with the monster in time after killing it, but the bone-eroding dragon fish is a monster with a strength estimated to be at the death level, and the materials on its body are extremely valuable, even Kang Yong cannot ignore it.

Therefore, he let the Ruyi Treasure Ship land to reap the spoils.

The bone-eating dragon fish was killed entirely by Kang Yong alone, and had nothing to do with the people on the deck. Therefore, Gu Xing just took a few glances at it, then looked away and continued to treat the wound.

After the wound on Zhao Zitong's arm was almost treated, Gu Xing urged her to take the pill quickly to recover from her injury as soon as possible.

He had seen before that after she received the pill brought by the servant, she did not eat it but put it away.

After hearing what Gu Xing said, she hesitated but spoke.

"It will recover on its own in two days."

"We will reach the Blood Sea in two days." Gu Xing rolled his eyes at her. "By the time we get there, your injuries won't have healed yet. If you die there, no matter how much money you make or how much you save, it will all be lost in the water in the end."

Zhao Zitong hesitated, but finally, with trembling hands, he took out the recovery pill from the storage magic weapon and put it into his mouth.

Gu Xing noticed that her hands were shaking. If it wasn't because of the pain, then it was because she was over-exerting herself and her body was somewhat out of control.

So he continued.

"Take the pills to restore your Qi as well."

But this time, Zhao Zitong shook his head and refused to eat.

Gu Xing was speechless. How much was a pill that restored true energy worth?

Oh, it seems to be quite valuable. Converted into grain coins, it would be worth tens of thousands per coin.

This was indeed a lot for Zhao Zitong, who even participated in hunting to recruit people just for that little bit of longevity pill.

Therefore, Gu Xing stopped urging and instead asked.

"If you can return alive after this mission, you should be able to get 100 million grain coins, right? Why do you want to save even this little bit?"

Zhao Zitong was silent for a moment, then slowly uttered two words.

"not enough."

"If 100 million grain coins are not enough, then the little you saved won't be of much use, right?"

Faced with this question, Zhao Zitong just remained silent.

Gu Xing was not a talkative person, so seeing her attitude, he also became quiet.

After a while, the wound was finally healed, all the dirt on it was gone, and the corrosive force carried by the blood fish worm was also completely removed.

Those bright blood holes looked somewhat scary. If one looked closely, one could even see granulation tissue slowly growing inside the holes.

The growth rate of granulation tissue is very slow. Without other means, it is estimated that it will take at least two or three days for the wound to heal.

Thinking of Zhao Zitong's stingy character, Gu Xing took out some ointment and some clean gauze from the storage magic weapon.

These things were basically taken out from other people's storage magic treasures. The Treasure Pavilion would not accept them, and he was too lazy to set up a stall to sell them. In addition, he had a strong physique, so he usually only needed to take pills when he was injured, and he didn't need to use them. Therefore, they were usually thrown into the storage magic treasures.

But it came in handy at this moment.

"No need..." Zhao Zitong said hurriedly when she saw this.

"Shut up." Gu Xing said two words to stop her from saying the rest of her words. Then, he slowly said, "No money required."

After a while, the bandage was finally completed and Gu Xing tied a knot on her arm.

"Okay, don't get hurt again in the next two days. If there is a weird attack, just hide in the room. If you are injured and don't fight, no one will say anything to you."

After giving her a few casual instructions and seeing that she kept her head down and remained silent, Gu Xing stood up, walked to the railing and looked at the big pit.

Although he had no share of the spoils, he was still quite interested in the corpse of the bone-eating dragon fish. After all, there were probably many things on it that could be used to make strange materials. However, if it fell into his hands, it would probably be a waste of resources.

Just as I walked to the railing, the word "serious" suddenly floated behind me.

"Thank you."
