Chapter 2458: Why Are You Here?
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Ning Shu felt that she had probably bought enough time and pushed Xiao Ke towards Xuan Yuanhao.
Xuan Yuanhao hurriedly caught Xiao Ke and struck Ning Shu with his palm. His palm went straight towards Zhenzhen on Ning Shu’s back.
Ning Shu turned around and released her energy in the form of a dragon. The dragon collided with Xuan Yuanhao’s palm and made a tremendous sound.
Ning Shu held Zhenzhen in her arms and ran to catch up with the high priest’s group.
The high priest turned his head only to see Ning Shu. “Why are you here?”
“I offended Xuan Yuanhao. What would I do if I didn’t run away?” Ning Shu said.
The high priest nodded. “That’s true. Thank you for your help. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t have been able to take back the spirit stone.”
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll rob you of the spirit stone?” Ning Shu asked with a crafty smile.
The high priest quickly covered his chest and looked at Ning Shu warily. “You also came for the spirit stone?”
The corner of Ning Shu’s mouth twitched. She felt that these people were really easy to trick.
“I have no place to go now, so let me go with you. It’s not easy for me as a widow with a child.” Ning Shu looked at the high priest. “Will you take me in?”
The high priest nodded without the slightest hesitation. “Of course. Thank you for helping us recover the spirit stone. Otherwise, the people in our village wouldn’t have survived for much longer.”
Ning Shu returned to the village, went to her house to get the medical books she had written, and went to the cow pen to lead the cow out.
“We must move quickly or Xuan Yuanhao will catch up. Bringing a cow along might slow us down,” the high priest looked at the approaching cow and said with some worry.
Ning Shu swatted the cow. “Run.”
The cow let out a cry and then dashed away.
High Priest: …
Everyone quickly hurried on.
Along the way, Ning Shu got to know these people and found that this group was really quite simple. They seldom came in contact with the outside world and were especially guileless.
They were so simple that Ning Shu was embarrassed to crack a joke. They would take it seriously even when it was clearly a joke.
On the way, Ning Shu stopped occasionally to give Zhenzhen boiled cow’s milk.
The group hadn’t washed their faces for several days. The high priest explained that their markings were made from herbs that could help them resist sun damage, so they couldn’t wash them off.
When their people went into the sun, their bodies would be damaged.
Ning Shu had never heard of such an ailment. She extended a hand to feel the high priest’s pulse to see if she could detect any defects.
His body was healthy and normal.
Ning Shu wondered if this was caused by psychological conditioning.
They believed that they couldn’t be in the sun and so would feel like sunlight inflicted extreme pain.
Their bodies then formed a conditioned reflex.
“There are no defects,” Ning Shu said as she withdrew her hand.
The high priest shook his head. “If a child goes into the sun, they will die within a few days.”
Ning Shu: Aha??!!
“What is a mermaid pearl?” Ning Shu asked. Was it a mermaid’s core?
After all, there were ghosts and large snakes in this world. Ning Shu wouldn’t be surprised if mermaids existed, really, really…
“It’s the core of a fish from the sea, a sea demon,” said the high priest.
Ning Shu nodded. “How many spirit stones are there?”
“This stone was originally part of a larger whole, but someone broke it and stole it. Now there’s only this small piece left,” the high priest said. “It was even someone from the village, oh dear…”
It appeared that Li Sanlang’s tablet had come from their spirit stone.
Maybe someone had sold it to the Li family. Ning Shu had stayed with the Li family for a while, but she hadn’t sensed that there were any strong people in the Li family.
Ning Shu fed the cooled milk to Zhenzhen. After drinking her fill, Zhenzhen looked curiously at the group.
Ning Shu was curious about the high priest’s demonic poison insects. How was it created?
Ning Shu consulted the high priest. He didn’t hide anything and told Ning Shu how to make them.
