Chapter 523 Sand Sea 17
Zhang Chuzhen remained silent. Although she didn't dislike shredded pork with green peppers, she didn't particularly want to eat it.
She pulled a short knife directly from her pocket and then heated it over a fire.
Then, he grabbed Hei Xiazi's wrist, swiftly made a cut on it with his knife, and quickly found a corpse beetle and picked it out.
Su Wan couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he turned his back and waited.
Although Hei Xiazi didn't show it on his face, he still felt an increasing pain in his wrist.
Noticing that he tensed up, Zhang Chuzhen said, "If you can't stand the pain, you can tell me, and I can knock you out before I do it!"
"No need, I can handle it," Black Bear said, shaking his head. "And... hiss~"
Before he could react, Zhang Chuzhen picked out two at once.
Under normal circumstances, Hei Xiazi was certain he wouldn't make a sound: "Continue!"
"Okay, does it hurt?" A hint of a smile flashed in Zhang Chuzhen's eyes. Men really are all too proud.
Before he could answer, she took the opportunity to dig out the last few incomplete remnants.
Black Bear gritted his teeth, trying not to make a sound.
Zhang Chuzhen checked the wound thoroughly to make sure it was clean before starting to treat it.
Once he had recovered, Hei Xiazi didn't forget to reply to her: "It's alright, I can endure it."
“Okay, I’ve suppressed the remaining snake venom for you. You can get an antivenom injection later.” Zhang Chuzhen nodded.
She knew Liang Wan had the serum, so she didn't intend to reveal that she also had it, to avoid the trouble of explaining herself.
Black Bear looked down at his wrist and found that the toxin, which had spread to the size of a palm, had now shrunk to the size of a coin.
"The two taps you just applied to my body, were they to suppress the spread of toxins?"
"Yes, the toxin has been temporarily sealed off and will not spread for three days."
It can actually last for a month, but saying it lasts for three days doesn't sound that amazing.
But the fact that she could suppress the toxins with such simple acupressure was enough to surprise the two of them.
Hei Xiazi was well-informed and had seen Zhang Chuzhen's strangeness before, so he accepted it quickly.
But Su Wan was different. His eyes were full of surprise and admiration when he looked at Zhang Chuzhen. However, he didn't ask Hei Xiazi anything, and he was too embarrassed to ask either.
"Once you've rested, go find someone as soon as possible!"
"You haven't finished touring this place yet?" Hei Xiazi asked, seeing that Zhang Chuzhen seemed to be planning to leave first.
Zhang Chuzhen didn't know how to say it, so she simply gave an ambiguous answer: "Well, you know."
The energy collection here is complete; she needs to move on to other places.
Before leaving, she glanced at her sofa, planning to come back and put it into her spatial storage after they left.
Upon hearing this, Hei Xiazi's lips twitched. He was genuinely puzzled by her behavior; she was truly a person who aroused curiosity yet remained unfathomable.
He noticed that the sofa she was sitting on seemed out of place with the rest of the room, but he didn't ask her directly.
"Sister, thank you for helping Master Hei just now. I still don't know your name. My name is Su Wan." Su Wan said quickly as she saw that the person was about to leave.
"Zhang Chuzhen!" She left those three words and walked out the door.
Su Wan repeated, "Zhang Chuzhen, Sister Zhang, Sister Chu, Sister Chuzhen, Sister Zhenzhen, which one sounds better?"
Snapped--
Suddenly slapped on the head, Su Wan immediately looked up at the person who hit him, feeling wronged: "Brother Hei, you hit me again?"
Black Bear: "They've all left, and you're still reluctant to let them go? You called them so affectionately after just one meeting."
He kept calling her things like "Sister Chu" and "Sister Zhenzhen," and even repeating it to himself twice felt a little cheesy.
Su Wan touched his head and said, "I just think this older sister is really nice; she even saved you."
"They saved me, not you, why are you so agitated?"
"I'm not excited, I just want to know what's appropriate to call it."
"Let's get down to business, we need to go find them!"
"Yes, yes, finding people is the priority."
After Zhang Chuzhen went out, she went into a room that was relatively far away and took out a different style of sofa from her space to sit down.
"Xiao Qi, you're free anyway, can you do me a favor?"
Xiao Qi: "Host, is there anything you need me to do?"
“The original owner didn’t own any property. I’ll be able to leave in a few days, so please find me a good place to live first.”
She doesn't plan to go out for fun for now; she intends to rest for a few years after completing her mission.
Xiao Qi: "Sure, what are your requirements?" This isn't difficult for it.
"To avoid having to move all the time like the original owner, I need to find a secluded place, preferably one without any neighbors."
"Then the suburbs or the mountains would be more suitable. Why don't you just buy a mountain and build your own house?"
Zhang Chuzhen hesitated for only a second, then, thinking of the mountain of gold she had just acquired, nodded without hesitation: "Okay."
"Okay, host, I'll go search for a suitable one right away. Wait for my news."
"Okay, take your time looking."
About two hours later, Xiao Qi's excited voice rang out: "Host, host, I have found a suitable place. It is a mountain peak on the outskirts of Shunjing."
"Buy it, and while you're at it, get someone to start construction right now and build me a private estate."
She thought that she could buy some materials and crafting manuals from the system shop later.
It can be used to create some permanently usable puppets to do her work, so that there are no other problems to worry about.
Moreover, when she leaves this world, she can store the puppet in her spatial dimension and take it to other worlds, releasing it whenever needed.
Zhang Chuzhen thought this was a good idea; it was much more convenient than hiring real people to do the work.
"Host, don't you want to take another look?"
"I trust your choice." Apart from not being able to control the body she travels through each world, Xiao Qi is quite reliable in other aspects.
Xiao Qi was delighted to hear this: "Okay, host, I'll go and make the arrangements right away."
"Yes, the gold is all in the space; you can exchange it yourself."
"receive."
Over here, Zhang Chuzhen leisurely collected energy.
Meanwhile, Hei Xiazi led Su Wan to Liang Wan, where Liang Wan injected him with serum. They then continued their search for Li Cu and Yang Hao.
They encountered the Wang family along the way, and a fierce chase ensued between the two groups.
Zhang Chuzhen was actually not far from them, so he also heard the commotion.
However, she knew the plot and that nothing would happen to them at this time. The energy was almost complete, so she didn't plan to help for the time being.
She looked at the progress bar, which showed 99.80%...99.89%...99.94%..., and prepared to leave.
Zhang Chuzhen put away her phone, stood up, stretched, and then put the sofa back into her storage space.
"Ding—Collection complete!"
Xiao Qi: "Congratulations, host, the mission is now halfway complete."
"Finally finished. I've been stuck in this dark place every day for so long, I feel like I'm going to get moldy."
