Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Jin Mo Runs Away from Home
"You! You!" Shi Feng uttered intermittently.
"What’s the matter, Little Shi? You seem so weak. Don’t talk for now, okay? I’ve heard that if a person is about to die and they say everything they want to say, then they’ll die!" Seeing Shi Feng speak intermittently, Jin Mo quickly said with urgency.
"You! You... Stop shaking me; if you keep... shaking me, I’m really... going to die!"
After Shi Feng weakly finished saying the word "die," his eyes closed again, and he passed out.
"Ah! Ah!" Jin Mo heard Shi Feng’s words and saw him pass out again, her pretty face losing its color again, "Little Shi, you can’t fall asleep again. I’ll stop shaking you now; I didn’t mean to, please don’t die!"
"Little Shi, you couldn’t have been shook to death by me, could you? If that’s true, I’ll feel so guilty!"
"Little Shi, should I bandage your wounds? But I’ve never done it before, I don’t know how!"
"Little Shi, wake up, don’t scare me! It’s because I was avoiding Zi Xiao that you ended up running here and like this; you mustn’t let anything happen to you."
"Little Shi..."
In the forest, Jin Mo’s cries of alarm resounded one after another, followed by a low growl from Little Bai.
...
The sky gradually darkened, then lightning flashed and thunder roared. In the Demon Beast Mountain Forest, a storm brewed, bringing fierce winds and heavy rain.
Little Bai, with Shi Feng and Jin Mo, who were in a coma, found a cave in the mountains to take shelter from the storm.
Inside the cave, there was no campfire and Jin Mo, not knowing how to make one, naturally did not start a fire. After Little Bai had brought Shi Feng and Jin Mo into the cave, it ran out alone into the storm, and it was unknown where it found dry firewood in such weather.
And the fire was lit by Little Bai too!
Shi Feng, covered in injuries, lay in the cave with Jin Mo kneeling beside him, clumsily bandaging him with white strips of cloth; soon, Shi Feng’s head was wrapped in a chaotic mass of white.
"Ugh!" Following that, a breathy groan came from beneath the messy white strips, and then a weak voice rose again, "Loosen it a bit, you silly girl; you’ve tied it too tight... I can hardly breathe."
"Ah!" Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Jin Mo let out a shout, then she became even more flustered as she fumbled with the bandages on Shi Feng’s face, making the white cloth even more disheveled.
"How is it, Little Shi? Feeling any better? Can you breathe properly now?" After bustling for a while, Jin Mo asked Shi Feng, full of concern.
"You... should rest for a bit. There’s no need to do anymore," Shi Feng’s weak voice rose again.
"No! I’m not tired, Little Shi, it’s because of me that you ended up like this. Taking care of you is the right thing to do; I’m not tired!" Jin Mo said resolutely.
Hearing this from under the white strips, Shi Feng was speechless. He told her not to bother because he didn’t want her to be counterproductive, but seeing her determined expression, he didn’t have the heart to discourage her.
Then, as Jin Mo snapped back to the present from Shi Feng’s earlier words, she looked at Shi Feng with a slight change in her pretty face and said, "Little Shi, you just called me... Have you already figured it out?"
"Mm! I figured it out," Shi Feng responded.
"Ah!" Jin Mo opened her mouth and stretched out the sound before continuing, "But I have the Secret Treasure on me; you shouldn’t be able to tell, right?"
Anyone with keen eyes could generally tell!
Even with the Secret Treasure, even if there was an Adam’s apple, even if the chest appeared flat, that devastatingly beautiful face capable of bringing disaster to nations and mesmerizing all living beings could not hide her true gender!
"In the future... perhaps I should disguise myself..." Shi Feng weakly answered.
"Uh..." Jin Mo weakly responded with an "uh."
"I need to rest now! You don’t need to bandage me anymore." Shi Feng spoke again, his voice weak.
"Okay... okay. Little Shi, if you feel uncomfortable, just call me, okay?" Jin Mo said.
"Got it," Shi Feng replied.
Afterward, Jin Mo slowly got up and walked away from Shi Feng’s side. As Jin Mo walked away, Shi Feng’s eyes closed slowly again, and he let out a low chant: "Nine Nether shall never perish, eternal through the ages!" Shi Feng began to circulate the Nine Nether Technique to heal his injuries.
After leaving Shi Feng, Jin Mo went to the cave entrance, where the white tiger Little Bai was lying, gazing at the storm outside the cave.
"Little Bai, what are you watching?" Jin Mo settled next to Little Bai at the entrance of the cave, stroked the white fur on the tiger’s back, and asked.
"Roar!" Little Bai turned her head toward Jin Mo and then let out a low growl, as if responding to Jin Mo’s words.
It was uncertain whether the silly girl truly understood or was just pretending, but after Little Bai growled, Jin Mo said, "Little Bai, are you feeling homesick?"
"Roar! Roar!" Upon hearing Jin Mo’s words, the white tiger actually nodded her head twice. Jin Mo then turned her gaze to the storm outside the cave and said, "Actually, Little Bai, I miss home too. I’ve been away from home for several days now; my Father Emperor and Mother Empress must be very anxious."
"But, do you know something, Little Bai?" Jin Mo then withdrew her gaze from outside the cave, looked at Little Bai, and continued, "My Father Emperor, who always treated me so well, who dearly loved me, has arranged a martial contest for my marriage without caring whether I am willing or not.
Do you know what a martial contest for marriage is, Little Bai? You’re a tiger; you surely don’t know, right?"
"Roar! Roar!" The white tiger growled back twice, nodding her head, as if to indicate that she did not know.
Then, Jin Mo told Little Bai, "A martial contest for marriage means setting up a stage where many men take turns to compete in combat. In the end, whoever wins, no matter if they are ugly, short, fat, or thin, no matter whether I like him or not, I have to marry that man."
After saying all this to Little Bai, a look of sorrow and sadness appeared on Jin Mo’s beautiful face, and tears seemed to shimmer in her eyes.
"Wu wu!" Then Jin Mo laid down on the back of the white tiger, her voice becoming choked up, as if she started crying on the tiger’s back, "Even though my Father Emperor loved me dearly, why did he have to do that? Why couldn’t he consider my feelings? Even if that person is stronger than everyone else and defeats all heroes, what good is that?
How could I be happy marrying someone I don’t love? How could I be content? Wu wu wu..."
"Roar! Roar!" After listening to Jin Mo finish speaking, the white tiger turned her head, gazing at Jin Mo, who was crying on her back like a little girl, and uttered two low growls, as if to comfort the fragile girl at that moment.
"I don’t want to marry someone... I don’t like..." Right after, the white tiger heard the muffled voice of the person lying on her back, who seemed to have fallen asleep there.
She must be... tired...
