But Li Huixi understands one thing. Nothing appears out of thin air. If just drinking a sip of water can increase a person's body in this way, then the princes of this era will never let go of such resources. How can these "fools" It is possible to live such a carefree life.
No matter how powerful the "Fools" are individually, they will always be flattened by the iron hooves of war horses.
There is no such thing as getting something for nothing in the world. If you have increased so much, you must have lost something in some aspect. However, the impact is not instantaneous, or you haven't discovered it yet.
The good news is that Li Huixi has been led by Zhu Ye for so long, and the arrogance in her heart has been flattened by him, and her mind has become dull.
The changes brought to Li Huixi's body this time made her feel that her mind had become clear again and she was freed from Zhu Ye's invisible influence. Ever since she met Zhu Ye, it was as if something was covering her eyes. Whether it was the road or the people, Li Huixi couldn't see as clearly as before.
While the lake water strengthened the physical quality, it also seemed to strengthen Li Huixi's consciousness, or the energy of his soul.
For a time, Li Huixi felt that her mind was much clearer, and she could even hear the chirping of birds and the sound of insects chewing leaves hidden in the clouds several miles away.
This also means that Li Huixi's intuition has to become more accurate than before.
Li Huixi stared at Xingzhou for a long time. Although this child gave people a feeling of purity, he had too many attributes, making him more likely to fall into a kind-hearted paranoia than ordinary people. In other words, It means he doesn't mean bad, but he can be easily controlled.
Li Huixi didn't realize this before drinking the lake water.
Since there is no sun, the concept of time is almost abandoned, but Li Huixi has her own way of timing. Another voice in her head keeps humming the same song repeatedly, so that she can know how long has passed.
This series of actions by the two people only took half an hour. Zhu Ye won't find anything yet.
There was still time, so Xingzhou suggested going to his house to change his clothes. Li Huixi had been wearing these clothes for a long time and had not cleaned herself up seriously since she came to this era.
Xingzhou hurriedly brought in a lot of water, and to Li Huixi's surprise, she found that all the water used for drinking here was water from that lake. I couldn't help but ask Xingzhou:
"Have you been using the water from this lake?"
"Yeah, everyone uses it."
But looking at the water with a little blue light, Li Huixi still had some resistance. Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, Xingzhou put his arm into the water in front of her, and took it out after a while. Nothing happened.
Although she was still a little uncomfortable, Li Huixi took off her clothes and soaked in the wooden tub that Xingzhou had filled with water.
At the same time, Xingzhou was waiting outside the door to ensure that he could help Li Huixi as much as he could at any time.
Feeling the water temperature with clear skin, the lake water is still a bit cool, perhaps due to the influence of the red leaves "covering the sky", but what puzzles Li Huixi is that there is always a cool air in the water that penetrates into her skin.
Similar to the change in the throat after applying ice cubes to the forehead or eating a piece of mint, the temperature of the entire bucket of lake water has been neutralized by the body temperature, but the coolness has never disappeared.
With her five senses strengthened, Li Huixi sat motionless in the bathtub, quietly staring at the changes in the lake water.
Sure enough, she found a clue. It was difficult for Rouwan to detect it, but with Li Huixi's eyesight now, she could see that there were countless small white lines in the lake. They were more like... bugs than lines.
It's a good thing that we didn't find it. Once we discover the existence of this bug, we will find that the whole bucket of water is full of this kind of thing, endless, one after another getting into Li Huixi's pores.
Li Huixi suddenly felt her scalp numb and cold sweat broke out on her back.
There is no cooling sensation at all, it is just a weak pain caused by the friction between countless bugs rushing into the pores and the skin.
But Li Huixi didn't show any panic. She was in the best condition now. If these bugs were something that would negatively affect her body, then she shouldn't feel so relaxed.
Although this picture makes people frown, the changes they brought to Li Huixi are visible to the naked eye. Some medicines are actually composed of bugs, but not all bugs are harmful.
After calming down, Li Huixi didn't take this matter too seriously, but she just kept thinking about it.
Xingzhou was still waiting outside the door. At this time, there was no one in the room. Only Li Huixi was taking a bath. Real footsteps could be heard.
Compared to the group of little bugs, this sound made Li Huixi feel more dangerous.
The movement of stirring up the water with her hand stopped. Li Huixi held her breath and listened quietly to the voice behind her. Although she was a little weak now, she couldn't care about it at the critical moment. Li Huixi was already ready, as long as If the person behind him enters the attack range, he will turn around and kill him instantly. After drinking the lake water, she can make movements several times more agile than before.
The man's breath was getting closer and closer. When the right moment came, Li Huixi turned around suddenly and threw his forearm hard behind him. Water splashed everywhere for a moment, and Li Huixi's long hair also flew away with the movement, and was carried away. The lake glows with blue light.
Unfortunately, this shot was in vain.
The fox expected that Li Huixi would fight back, so he blurred his body when he got close.
Only then did Li Huixi realize that the guy in front of her was the familiar guy wearing fox mask.
The two of them didn't talk nonsense. Li Huixi didn't even bother to put on a piece of clothing. She simply leaned on the edge of the barrel and continued to water, speaking frankly to each other.
After all, the other party was transformed by himself. In a sense, the fox was Li Huixi, so there was no need to hide it.
Li Huixi gently rubbed her skin and asked the fox:
"What's going on in the city now?"
"Not long after you left, the coalition forces started preparing to attack the city again. Now the locals are helping her. The fighting power of those guys is amazing, but..."
"Just what?"
"Although that group of locals could defeat many with one, two of them were killed by lightning summoned by Zhu Ye after they successfully defended the city."
"Ah? Why is this?"
"I don't know either, but they seemed to enjoy themselves when they died."
Li Huixi was a little surprised after hearing this. It could be seen from her confused face that she understood Zhu Ye. It was normal for that guy to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but the motivation of these "fools" was beyond her comprehension.
There was nothing to prepare. Li Huixi got out of the bath, stepped on a few drops of lake water, and found the silk and satin that Xingzhou had left for her in the room. After wiping her body clean, she put on the robe that Xingzhou's mother had worn when she was young. .
Different from the one on the fox, the composition of this one is not complicated, and it is easier to move. Compared to the colorful robe on the fox, this one is only a very simple navy blue.
But Li Huixi likes it very much.
Walking out of the room, Li Huixi was alone. Xingzhou had been waiting for a long time. Since there was no sunlight, it was easy to get sleepy, let alone such a child. When Li Huixi came out, Xingzhou had already slept for an unknown amount of time.
The two of them rushed to the capital without stopping.
Soon, the figure of the coalition forces came into view of the two of them. I don't know what happened. During the time when the two left, the number of the coalition forces dropped significantly, and they were far less powerful than they were at the beginning.
At the gate of the city, there were two "Fools" guarding the city, but all the coalition soldiers outside the city looked frightened. No one was willing to rush forward, and the generals were not even willing to say siege slogans. .
