Chapter 64: Conditions for Going to Land
Jiang Li rested briefly at Xiao Gui’s residence. She didn’t dare to return to Junyue Lan’s place, afraid that she would uncontrollably start crying again. “Xiao Li, I see you have a wound, do you want to treat it again?” Xiao Gui pointed to the wound on her abdomen and asked.
“It’s okay, it’s almost healed, don’t worry.” “Okay.” In the afternoon, she was still worried about the Starfish Elder’s injury, and she went to visit him again with Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui. But this time, they didn’t find the Starfish Elder’s residence.
Instead, they found two blue bottles of potion on the table where he kept his herbs, and next to the potion was a message. Jiang Li couldn’t understand their merfolk writing, so she asked Xiao Jie to translate it. But after Xiao Jie finished reading the message left by the Starfish Elder, his face turned pale. Seeing this, Jiang Li also began to feel uneasy. “Xiao Jie, what’s wrong? What did the Starfish Elder write?” “The Starfish Elder… he…” Xiao Jie’s whole body trembled, his expression turned shocked and fearful. Seeing that he couldn’t speak a complete sentence, Jiang Li became a little anxious. “
What’s wrong? What happened?” Xiao Jie was brought back to his senses by the roar, he looked at Jiang Li with a stiff face. “The Starfish Elder said that he traded his life with the witch in exchange for us being able to transform into human form and live on land.” “What?” Jiang Li and Xiao Gui were both shocked. “How could the Starfish Elder…” Xiao Gui trembled, he didn’t dare to say the rest. Jiang Li remembered what the Starfish Elder had said to them.
He said that he belonged to the Sana River and couldn’t leave, and he asked Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui to leave. It turned out… at that time, he had already made up his mind to make a deal with the witch. Jiang Li was heartbroken. She didn’t want this. She had come back to take everyone out, how come one by one they were leaving? Why was this happening… Jiang Li lowered her head, clenched her fists. Tears flowed uncontrollably. “The Starfish Elder had already made this decision.” Xiaohua slowly swam to their side. The three of them looked up at the sound.
Xiaohua sighed softly, her face also had a melancholy expression. “After you left, the Starfish Elder said he was going to the witch. He said he wanted Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui to go to land, he also knew that the price of the exchange was his life.” “Then why didn’t you stop the Starfish Elder?” Xiao Jie was a little anxious, and reprimanded Xiaohua. Xiaohua couldn’t bear it, and directly retorted, “I tried to stop him, but the Starfish Elder wouldn’t listen!”
Xiaohua’s eyebrows drooped, and she suddenly started crying, “He said that he was a burden to Jiang Li with this body, and it was better to do something meaningful. How could I stop him?” Xiao Jie was speechless, he lowered his head and didn’t dare to say anything. Seeing Xiaohua crying in front of him, he felt very uncomfortable. “I’m sorry, Xiaohua, I spoke too harshly.” Xiaohua sniffed, she didn’t say anything. She just glared at Xiao Jie angrily, and snorted in a huff. Jiang Li reached out and picked up the two blue bottles of potion on the table.
She took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, and handed the two bottles of potion to Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui. “This is the Starfish Elder’s wish, we can’t let his kindness go to waste. The Elder was right, you would definitely be in danger if you stayed here, why don’t you leave with me?” Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui remained silent, looking at each other, as if they were hesitant. Jiang Li pulled the corners of her lips and gave them a smile, “I can’t take care of Xiao Rui alone in the future, I need your help.” Hearing this, Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui were both stunned, they looked at Jiang Li in disbelief. “Jiang Li… you… are you willing to let us help you take care of the child?”
Xiao Jie widened his eyes and asked her softly. Jiang Li nodded, “Of course.” At this time, Xiao Gui couldn’t help but open his mouth. “Xiao Li, aren’t you angry that we didn’t take good care of Jiang Nian?” Xiao Gui couldn’t believe it, Jiang Li wasn’t blaming them. Jiang Li lowered her head slightly. To be honest, she was a little angry at first, angry that Xiao Gui and Xiao Jie didn’t take good care of Jiang Nian.
But then again, they had tried their best. After all, it was she who had asked them to help watch Jiang Nian. Moreover, the enemy on the other side was Jun Changxi and Leila, and they were also seriously injured in this war. If it hadn’t been for Junyue Lan and the Starfish Elder, she might have already been dead at their hands. “It’s not your fault, you’ve already tried your best.”
Thinking of Jiang Nian, Jiang Li was still heartbroken. After thinking for a while, Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui decided to follow the Starfish Elder and Jiang Li’s words, leave the Sana River, and go to live on land. Xiao Gui left them and returned to his place, deciding to say goodbye to the turtle elder. As for Jiang Li, she was staring blankly, her eyes filled with emotion as she watched Xiao Jie cry with a runny nose and teary eyes, looking at Xiaohua.
“Xiaohua, you have to protect yourself, I’ll come back to see you when I have time, remember to think of me…” Xiaohua also looked at Xiao Jie with tears in her eyes, she nodded in agreement. “Okay, I will, it’s dangerous on land, you have to be careful.”
Finally, the two embraced. This scene really blinded Jiang Li’s titanium alloy dog eyes. She raised her head and walked to the entrance of the cave, looking at the endless Sana River. Groups of small fish were swimming around. This was where she and Junyue Lan had countless memories.
She vowed that she would absolutely make Leila and her son pay, to avenge Junyue Lan and the Starfish Elder. After Xiao Gui came back, Xiao Jie and Xiaohua were still clinging to each other. Seeing them so affectionate, Xiao Gui couldn’t stand it anymore, he mercilessly slapped Xiao Jie’s face with his paw. This finally gave him the chance to get revenge for the two slaps Xiao Jie had given him. After slapping Xiao Jie, Xiao Gui secretly laughed in his heart. So satisfying! As for Xiao Jie, he covered his face in pain. This made Xiaohua feel very sorry.
“Xiao Jie, are you okay? Does it still hurt? I’ll blow on it for you.” “It still hurts a little.” “Then I’ll blow on it for you.” Xiao Gui opened his mouth wide and was stunned. He didn’t expect that his two slaps would actually help this scoundrel, Xiao Jie. Seeing Xiaohua’s mouth pouting, slowly approaching Xiao Jie’s reddened face, Jiang Li finally couldn’t stand it anymore. She glared, grabbed Xiao Jie’s neck with one hand. “You’ve been disgusting for a long time, it’s time to stop.
” Xiao Jie coughed awkwardly twice. “We’re… we’re done…” Xiao Jie finally reluctantly looked at Xiaohua. “Xiaohua, we’re leaving then.” Xiaohua nodded sadly with tears in her eyes. “Okay.” Xiao Jie took Xiao Gui and Jiang Li, walked through a hidden path, and swam far to the riverbank. Jiang Li went ashore first, turning her back to them. Xiao Jie and Xiao Gui picked up the blue potion and drank it in one gulp. The next second, they transformed into human form.
“Wow? I actually turned into a human!” Xiao Jie happily stomped his feet in the water. Xiao Gui took out the clothes he had prepared and threw them to him. “Stop playing, put them on quickly.”
