From then on, Xing Zhi would wake Shen Li up before going out to confirm whether she could sense external things today. Shen Li was relatively cooperative in the first two days, but after a few days, Shen Li became impatient. When Xing Zhi calling her, she just covered her with the quilt: "I can see and hear, but the touch is gone, no problem, just go."
Xing Zhi's outstretched hand stopped in the air. Hearing Shen Li's even breathing, he looked at her dumbfounded. Looking at her appearance today, who could have imagined that she was so frightened that day. Her face was pale, her whole body was trembling, and her hands and feet were cold. Maybe she showed that emotion unconsciously. Xing Zhi thought, if this woman Shen Li had even half of her sanity, she would never allow herself to look so fragile.
"There is no food at home, so I didn't make breakfast. I'm going to the market to buy some food now, and I'll be back soon. If you're hungry, go ahead and get some water to satisfy your hunger."
There were two muffled responses from the quilt.
Xing Zhi shook his head and went out.
However, not long after Xing Zhi left, Shen Li woke up, lifted the quilt and lay on the bed in a daze. She felt that the feelings she had invested in Xing Zhi now were too much, so much that they were almost out of her control. She now, wants to take back all the emotions after this period of time is over, but... can she really take it back?
Shen Li has never relied so much on anyone, and Shen Li has a sense of danger that will burn her...
She sighed and couldn't sleep anymore. She simply lifted the quilt and got out of bed to wash up. However, as soon as she walked to the yard to fetch water, she suddenly heard a few soft noises. Shen Li's eyes narrowed her eyes, and she knew that the person coming today was definitely not the one before. Those few ruffians are generally useless for a few days. She frowned and turned her head slightly: "Who is coming?"
After the sounds of ‘rust’ settled, five men in black stood separately in the yard: "Your Majesty, you can make it easier for us to find you."
Shen Li turned around with cold eyes, staring at the person who spoke, making him shudder. The person immediately winked at the person next to him, and several people around him swallowed. Shen Li has heard of Fu Sheng's previous burns and the killing of dozens of demons and their companions. They have all seen her miserable condition in the dungeon. She was injured like that, but now she is standing with her limbs intact. In front of them, people would inevitably feel frightened, and no one dared to step forward for a moment.
The leader gritted his teeth and said: "What are you afraid of? Mr. Fu Sheng said that she must not have recovered her magic power now, but she is just a useless person. If you find her now and don't arrest her, you all want to go back and be tortured?!"
The last sentence seemed to sting the fear in everyone's hearts. They looked at each other and just about to take action, they heard Shen Li sneer: "Have you ever been taught by your master that if the situation is unknown, do not act rashly."
Several people were already unsure. When Shen Li said this, they became even more panicked. The leader shouted: "She must be bluffing, do it!"
The people on the left and right were also dead. They were heartbroken. They raised their hands and chanted the incantation. A stream of white air overflowed from their fingertips and slowly condensed in front of them. When they stopped chanting, they saw that the white air actually condensed into arrows, densely packed like pointing on Shen Li.
She couldn't escape, Shen Li knew. She stood still, but between the lightning and flint, a barrier suddenly opened in front of her, and her white robe was blown by the wind generated by the impact onto Shen Li's face.
