Chapter 35 (1/2)
Waiting until he was drunk as f.u.c.k, Donford Wu stopped drinking. Leading Food Dump up the mountain, he stumbled forward. Everyone wanted to send him off, but were all shooed back.
Arriving back at the cave, Donford Wu fell down and started sleeping. Because he had too much to drink, his tongue and mouth felt extremely dry, but there wasn’t anyone here to pour him some water. His thirst was so incredible that he got up and got a water can himself and walked out the cave. Arriving at the entrance of the cave, wind blew over him, his irritability reducing by a slight margin. The alcohol getting to his head, he fell down on the ground with sleep following close behind.
Not long after, he felt someone take away the water can in his hand, and after another moment of time, he was helped up in a sitting position, the water can brus.h.i.+ng against his lips. Feeling the cold touch of fresh water, Donford Wu opened his mouth to drink a few mouthfuls. His head hitting the ground again, he started sleeping.
Around four or five in the morning, Donford Wu was awoken by the cold wind of the early morning. Flipping around, he sat up. Drinking too much rice wine could make a person drunk, but what’s good about it that it doesn’t get into the head too much. After waking up, his clarity was immediately restored.
At this time, the sky was already hazily brightened. Food Dump was sleeping beside him, and that water can was placed a few steps away atop of a boulder.
Donford Wu got up and walked over to pick up the water can, pressing it against his lips to take a drink of water. He then suddenly smelt that a strong flowery fragrance was lingering in the can, a bit like the smell of modern perfumes.
Yaara Ming doesn’t use cosmetics, the female villagers also didn’t use these kinds of things. They aren’t even able to afford a bar of soap, so how could they use cosmetics.
Yesterday night, the person who poured water for him wasn’t Yaara Ming, nor was it the women of the village, who was this person?
In a heart of confusion, Donford Wu tried hard to remember the scene of drinking water yesterday night. Yesterday, he really wasn’t happy with Yaara Ming’s reaction, when he was drinking, he had a bit of was.h.i.+ng his worries away use to it. Nearing the end, he was practically unconscious, he really couldn’t remember the details, only remembering someone helping him up and drinking water.
Pondering to this point, Donford Wu moved his head to smell his own two shoulders, discovering that there was a faint fragrance on him.
Donford Wu used his hands to hug his head, trying his best to remember. It was very dark yesterday, he couldn’t see the person’s face, or it could be that he just didn’t open his eyelids wide enough. He really couldn’t remember who this person was, but he vaguely remembered when he was drinking water, there was hair brus.h.i.+ng against his face, with long hair, it should be a woman.
Would it be a monster?! Donford Wu s.h.i.+vered in his heart. This place was in the middle of nowhere, and deep in the night, why would there be a woman running around the mountain. Last time he ran into a fox spirit, if he really is that unlucky, it should some kind of spirit this time too.
Very quickly he calmed down, even if the woman really was a monster, she didn’t have any evil intentions. If not, then she wouldn’t have gave him water to drink.
Standing there for a long time, Donford Wu once again put the water can near his nose. Without smoking for so long, his sense of smell improved lots, he could smell that the fragrance only concentrated at the water can’s right handle. On the other parts of the water can, he couldn’t smell this scent. Which meant that yesterday night, that woman held the water can’s left handle over. At this moment, the water can still had half a can filled with fresh water, about the amount he drank yesterday night. Even with only the remaining water and the ceramic can, it weighs a total of two point five to three kilograms. A regular woman couldn’t hold two point five to three kilograms with only one hand and walk this far. Even if this woman wasn’t a monster, she definitely wouldn’t be a regular woman.
Coming to here, the clues broke off, he couldn’t think of anything else. Donford Wu had a sense of loss, she helped him bring water when he needed it the most, and he didn’t even say a word of thanks to this person.
Because of the wound on his hand, he didn’t go out to hunt, only laying in the cave in a daze.
He didn’t go out, he laid in the cave the whole day, Food Dump ate the remaining fruits that were picked a few days ago.
Dawn, Yaara Ming came, bringing a box of medicine to change his bandages.
“You’re a shaman, you need to have a shaman’s seriousness, drink less from now on.”
Yaara Ming untied the bandage on Donford Wu’s right arm.
Donford Wu didn’t say anything.
“You broke Chris’s (Zhu) nose and broke three of his teeth.”
Yaara Ming stated.
“How do you know?”
Donford Wu’s nose flared a bit, the Chris Yaara Ming spoke about was that male shaman’s name without a doubt.
“I went to their village, the villagers there already notified his father. His father is a Great Sage of the Sedimentary Tribe and is coming here right now.”
Donford Wu stared at Yaara Ming, not saying anything.
“Tomorrow, I’ll come by again, tell his father the reasons. But you were too heavy handed, his father seeing him like this will surely be mad.”
Yaara Ming lowered her head to apply medicine on Donford Wu’s wound.
Donford Wu clenched his right fist.
“He ambushed me from behind yesterday. If I fell down from that arrow, then what you’ll be seeing today is my corpse. With my kind of temper, I should have killed him. The reason why I didn’t was because I didn’t want to make trouble for you, and right now you are actually angry at me for being too heavy handed?”
The wounds on his right hand still hasn’t closed, with this clench, fresh blood once again came flowing out. Yaara Ming seeing this hurriedly used a bandage to stop the blood.
Donford Wu took his right hand away and angrily got up.
“The reason I’m staying here is not because I have nowhere to go, it is because you are here.”
“Don’t be angry, I didn’t have that kind of intention. I was only worried that your ident.i.ty would be exposed. If you’re exposed, then it’ll be extremely dangerous.”
Yaara Ming quickly explained.
“What I hoped more was that you would worry if I needed someone to look after me after I turned drunk, worry if I could cook by myself with a wound on my hand!”
Donford Wu spoke out.
“Anyone home?”
A male voice sounded out from outside the cave.
Hearing this sound surprised Donford Wu. Quickly turning his head to look at the cave entrance, he only saw a purple robed middle age man filled with smiles standing outside the cave. This person’s age was around forty five or six years old, an average build, wide nose and round face, he hand a very kind expression.
Seeing the purple robe, Donford Wu’s heart froze for a bit, only Celestial Masters have the qualifications to wear a purple robe, and he saw the three Celestial Masters of the Gold clan before, this person wasn’t from the Gold clan.
“May I come in?”
The middle aged man asked with a smile.
Donford Wu turned his head to look at Yaara Ming, Yaara Ming had wrinkles covering her forehead, eyebrows furrowing.
“It’s an Earth clan Celestial Master.”
“Thank you, thank you.”
The middle aged man answered his own question, walking inside.
Determining this visitor was an enemy and not a friend, Donford Wu started to ponder if he should rush out. Even though this person had a kind face, but he absolutely wasn’t a kind person.
After walking in the cave, the middle aged man lifted his robe and bent down to sit. But he didn’t sit on the ground, but rather a stone chair quickly sprouted out from the ground.
“Yun, Philip (Ping) Yun. Your name?”
The middle aged man smiled while looking at Donford Wu.
“What are you doing here in our Gold clan?”
Yaara Ming directly asked.
“To invite your husband to be a guest at our Earth clan.”
The Earth clan Celestial Master named Philip Yun smiled.
Donford Wu was currently evaluating the risks of rus.h.i.+ng out. This Earth Clan Celestial Master could instantly form a stone chair from rock, this meant his control over the laws was extremely strong. He absolutely had the power to seal the cave entrance, but he didn’t do this. This was a show of his confidence, to possibility of being able to rush out was very small.
“We don’t welcome you, go.”
Yaara Ming used her copper pole to point at Philip Yun.
Philip Yun smiled, reaching out his jade pole, he pushed aside Yaara Ming’s copper pole. Right now, he was only holding a small white jade rabbit, this jade pole was formed from this jade rabbit.”
“If we have to try for a bit to have a nice talk, then you guys can try.”
