He should indeed work hard. Only then would he be worthy of those who had also worked hard to save his life.
Seeing that Hu Changshou was motivated, Su Xiaolu was relieved. She stood up and left.
Su Xiaolu went to see Zhou Zhi.
Ever since they entered the foreign realm, everyone had been very busy. They had almost no chance to meet and chat.
As an apothecary, Su Xiaolu was also very busy every day. However, she had some thoughts about Hu Changshou to tell Zhou Zhi.
“Fourth Brother.”
Su Xiaolu shouted from outside.
“Xiaolu, come in.”
Zhou Zhi replied.
Su Xiaolu went in. Zhou Zhi was still lighting the lamp and reading the novels. These were all sent in from outside. They were in the foreign land and had no news, so news from outside had to be sent in.
Zhou Zhi put down his work and smiled at Su Xiaolu. “Have you eaten?”
Su Xiaolu nodded. She sat down casually opposite Zhou Zhi and said, “Fourth Brother, I have something to tell you.”
Zhou Zhi listened seriously. “Yes, tell me.”
“It’s my cousin, Hu Changshou. He came to the foreign land himself. His current situation is very special…”
Su Xiaolu told Zhou Zhi about Hu Changshou’s situation. Hu Changshou had yet to say what had happened to him. Perhaps he did not want to say it, but it was worth thinking about.
Zhou Zhi understood what Su Xiaolu said immediately. He was also deep in thought. After Su Xiaolu finished speaking, Zhou Zhi thought for a moment before saying, “Xiaolu, I also have some guesses. We can sense all kinds of abilities for our own use. It’s fine for some people’s bodies to undergo some changes. It’s just that for these changes to happen, it requires certain conditions or eating certain things to have such a change. The human body can become a poison sac without being affected at all. Perhaps it can even grow long hands, long feet, and a pair of wings.”
After Zhou Zhi finished speaking, Su Xiaolu nodded firmly. “Yes, that’s it.”
She felt that after the two worlds fused, humans might be divided into a few races.
In the future, they would probably be divided into mutants, mutated humans, therianthropes or even mutated beasts that had turned into humans, and ordinary people who had not changed at all.
Mortals would not disappear. Su Xiaolu firmly believed this.
There would also be many kinds of cultivation. Even mortals had Dao that they could cultivate. Perhaps this world would welcome thousands or tens of thousands of years of cultivation. When the spiritual energy gradually dried up, their era would slowly pass. All the prosperity would end. In the end, beasts would still be beasts, and humans would still be ordinary people.
“I wonder what will happen in the end.”
Zhou Zhi smiled. Even he couldn’t imagine what it would be like.
“Fourth Brother, you can also try to gain enlightenment. Perhaps you can convert the poison in your body for your own use.”
Su Xiaolu looked down at Zhou Zhi’s empty feet and said. In the past, she could tell Zhou Zhi with certainty that it was impossible to regrow broken limbs, but now, nothing seemed impossible.
Changes that they did not know about were entering the world of ordinary people bit by bit. They were being known by people bit by bit, so anything was possible.
Zhou Zhi nodded and agreed gently. “Okay, thank you, Xiaolu. I’ll try.”
“Okay, then I’ll go back and rest.”
Su Xiaolu finished what she wanted to say and got up.
Zhou Zhi nodded and stood up to send Su Xiaolu out.
The current Zhou Zhi no longer needed prosthesis to replace his crippled feet. The vines he controlled could replace his feet.
Su Xiaolu returned to the barracks. Old Wu and Gui You were meditating.
Su Xiaolu did not disturb them. After packing up, she silently began to cultivate her internal breath.
However, not long after that, Su Xiaolu opened her eyes. She felt a little flustered and could not get into the mood.
She subconsciously looked up at the sky. The starry sky was beautiful. She looked at it for a moment and sank her consciousness into the Space.
When Mantis Shrimp smelled the familiar smell, it ran towards her with its little legs.
Su Xiaolu picked up Mantis Shrimp and muttered softly, “What’s going on today? Why are you acting strange too? Don’t you usually lie on the Interface Stone and gnaw on it? You don’t even want to leave when I pull you away. Why did you take the initiative to come down from the Interface Stone today?”
“Woohoo—”
Mantis Shrimp wriggled in Su Xiaolu’s arms, its little nose twitched, and it sniffed around. It even used its little claws to pull at Su Xiaolu’s clothes.
Su Xiaolu found it even stranger.
She carried the Mantis Shrimp to the edge of the spiritual spring. The carps inside were also swimming around madly, not as leisurely as usual.
Su Xiaolu also felt uneasy. She vaguely felt that something big was about to happen to her.
This made her feel a little threatened.
What was going on?
Su Xiaolu felt as if something groundbreaking was going to happen, but this layer of window paper was not broken, so she did not know why.
The spiritual energy in the Space surged. Su Xiaolu sat down and practiced breathing techniques. Not long after, she opened her eyes again. Mantis Shrimp was still beside her and did not let go of the Interface Stone.
Su Xiaolu stood up and Mantis Shrimp followed. Su Xiaolu had no time to care about it. She patrolled the Space and couldn’t help but mutter, “There’s nothing wrong with this. It hasn’t expanded or shrunk. Why is it different? Why is spiritual energy surging into my body like crazy?”
Su Xiaolu was puzzled. She thought for a moment and decided to go out first.
This time, Mantis Shrimp bit her clothes and hummed, as if it was trying to express something.
This had never happened before. Su Xiaolu couldn’t help but hug Mantis Shrimp. She asked, “Mantis Shrimp, do you want to go out with me?”
Mantis Shrimp shook its head and nodded.
Su Xiaolu was surprised. “You can understand me?”
Mantis Shrimp looked at Su Xiaolu with its black eyes.
Su Xiaolu rubbed its head and brought Mantis Shrimp out of the Space.
The little fellow grew very slowly. It had almost been a year, and it had only grown from a newborn mouse to the size of a newborn puppy. The only change was that its mouse-like tail had disappeared. After biting the Interface Stone, its fur color had also changed from white to gray.
After coming out, Mantis Shrimp was not noisy at all. It just snuggled quietly beside Su Xiaolu.
The next morning, Old Wu saw Su Xiaolu carrying a little beast. He asked, “When did you catch this? Do you want to raise it?”
Gui You looked at it and said, “I don’t know if the cubs inside are any different from the ones outside. We don’t know whether they recognize you as their master or not, nor do we know if they bear grudges. Just to be safe, don’t raise them. Throw them into the pot.”
How good would it be to extract it into medicine?
Some cubs have held grudges since they were born. Moreover, in the foreign world, nothing was impossible.
