2331 The Recovery 4 (1/2)

”I only managed to remove the toxins that are irrelevant to my current condition.” Then, she paused to take a breath. ”I will need your help in getting a few herbs for me.”

Mr. Zhu listened to her attentively. ”What kind?”

”Xue Qing Hong, Luofeng Flower...” Gu Xijiu named a total of eight herbs.

”What are they for?”

”To cure the toxins in my body. These herbs must be freshly dried. I would like to have them in a day.”

These herbs were not very rare. They could be easily found at different corners throughout the Devil Kingdom.

Mr. Zhu agreed immediately.

He took a look at Gu Xijiu and the amount of needles that she had all over her body. Surely, she would have to stay immobile for a while. Concerned for her safety, he offered, ”This is the most dangerous place in all of the Kingdom. It houses many ferocious beasts. It is not safe for you to be alone. May I offer you a wizardry barrier? I know that you will not be able to outrun the animals, so this barrier will keep them away from you.”

Soon, he raised his arms and cast a spell. An invisible barrier appeared and surrounded Gu Xijiu. It was about three meters high and two meters wide, spacious enough to give Gu Xijiu full protection.

Anxiously, Gu Xijiu gasped for air before she called his idea off. ”Wait! You will be away for at least a day. The barrier is fine at night, but when the sun comes out, the heat will turn the barrier into a steamer. Without any ventilation, I will die from suffocation under the sun.”

Mr. Zhu was puzzled. ”What should we do?”

With a sigh, Gu Xijiu then answered, ”There are some huge stones right there. Can you carry them over for me and place them according to my instructions? I can make an array formation to keep myself safe.”

Mr. Zhu was astonished. He had not expected that. ”You have studied about array formations?”
