Chapter 238: Finding a Way Out (I)
When Liu woke up, he saw that Long was half naked. Only having underpants on, Long put his clothes on a branch and tried to dry them at the fire.
Liu couldnât believe his eyes and he even thought that he was dreaming.
Given Longâs ident.i.ty, he didnât need to do this in personâ¦
However, Liu suddenly thought of the scene when he and Long jumped off the cliff.
What was the last thing he remembered?
Oh, it was the whirlpool in the river. It was so strong and something seemed to be attacking them. What was that? Was that fish or something else?
Liu had no idea because he didnât see clearly. When he saw that Long was going to be attacked, he instinctively blocked it and he didnât know what happened nextâ¦
When he woke up, he found he was at this place.
Liu sat up from the bed. He stretched and surprisingly found that he had regained some internal strength!
Liu immediately concentrated his mind and strived for greater breakthroughs.
However, Liu gave up over ten minutes later.
Although he felt a little better, he still couldnât make any breakthrough. There wasnât enough time.
Long blinked and looked at Liu. Finally, he said, âYouâre awake.â
Liu nodded. âWell, what is this place?â
âI donât know. By the way, Liu Suifeng, do you plan to lose weight?â Long suddenly asked.
Liu was stunned. He didnât expect Long to ask this. âWhat?â
Long shrugged his shoulders. âWhen you were in a coma, I carried you and walked a long way. I really think youâre very heavy. For the sake of your future, I suggest you lose weight.â
Liuâs face darkened. âYouâre the one who needs to lose weight!â
Long curled his lips. âI can take care of myself, but you canât!â
âYouâ¦â Liu was furious.
âYouâre more powerful than me, arenât you? Why are you so miserable now? Do you still have a fever?â Long asked.
Liu pursed his lips and just found that his body was a little hot, but he didnât feel very bad.
âIâm fine.â Liu glared at Long. âYouâre all right because I suffered all the pain for you in the river!â
âOh, so it is.â Long nodded as he finally realized that. He doubted it earlier and it turned out to be trueâ¦
Liu got out of bed. Noticing that his clothes and shoes were drenched, he frowned.
âI planned to dry your clothes after mine are okay. I didnât expect you to wake up so early. Come and warm yourself. This place is so cold.â
Liu decided to dry his clothes first before going to check the situation outside.
So, after getting out of bed, Liu sat down beside the fire at will. Fortunately, there were two chairs in the room and he didnât need to sit on the ground.
âThereâs not enough firewood, but you can dry yourself first. I got all of the firewood. Youâll have to get some more later.â Long said that as if he had forgotten Liu saved him earlier.
âDry myself? Iâm drying my clothes, okay?â Liu stressed.
Long said calmly, âOh, Iâm sorry. I omitted a few words.â
Liu was angry. âHow can you speak like that? This is no fun!â
Long yawned lazily. âMy clothes are dry. There are only my shoes left.â
Long said as he put his shoes on the branch. After putting the branch by the fire, he went to bed.
In the strict sense, it couldnât be called a bed. That was just a wooden plank and there wasnât quilt on it. Anyway, people could still lie on it, right?
âIâm exhausted and itâs dark. Iâll sleep first.â
Liu was speechless, wondering where he could sleep later.
Long was really tired. Soon after going to bed, he closed his eyes and began to snore.
Liu couldnât believe that Long just fell asleep like that. He didnât think there was anyone else who could fall asleep faster than Long.
Thinking about that, Liu began to dry his clothes by the fire.
His internal strength had recovered a little.
With the help of the internal strength and the fire, his clothes and shoes were dry after about half an hour.
There was not much firewood left. So Liu planned to get some more and tried to figure out what was going on outside.
To Liuâs surprise⦠he didnât know this place at all. It seemed that this area was very large and desolate.
Apart from that, he didnât see any wild animals.
He didnât dare to go too far away from the hut, for fear that someone would do harm to Long.
When he came back, Liu brought back two hares and a pile of firewood.
Liu found the two hares by accident. Without them, Liu and Long would be so miserable that they wouldnât have anything to eat.
There was some water in the room, which was prepared by Long. It should be taken from the river and had been boiled.
After roasting the two hares, Liu ate one and put the other one aside. There was no seasoning, so it tasted really bad.
Liu also knew that Long hadnât eaten anything for a long time, but he was really exhausted, because the hares had been roasted and he still didnât wake up.
After putting more firewood to the fire, Liu looked at the bed and thought about where to sleep. At this time, Long sniffed and suddenly opened his eyes. Then, his stomach began to growl.
The corners of Liuâs lips twitched. He just thought that Long was too tired to wake up, but unexpectedly, Long opened his eyes.
âI smelt meat,â Long said.
Liu raised his eyebrows. âYes, youâre right.â
âYou canât do martial arts, right? I didnât expect you to hunt.â Long was very surprised.
Hearing that Long seemed to be disdainful of him because he had lost his martial arts, Liu got furious. He snorted and said coldly, âDoes every hunter need to do excellent martial arts?â
