Not long after Lin Chujiu packed his things, Demon Lord came back with some wild fruits in his hands. Seeing that Lin Chujiu had packed up her things, he handed the wild fruits to Lin Chujiu without saying a word.
The fruit was cleaned, and Lin Chujiu didn’t dislike it. She took it, said thank you, and then eat it. When Demon Lord saw her, he turned his face away in disgust, “Can we leave now?” If he keeps looking, he would suffer a loss. He would want to hug her in his arms.
“Yes, Dev… Don’t worry, I will not hold you back.” Lin Chujiu almost called him the devil again, but fortunately, she reacted quickly and changed her words in time.
Demon Lord glanced at her coldly but didn’t say much, just tiptoed and jumped down.
Lin Chujiu stuffed the remaining fruit into her luggage, held it with both hands, and climbed down with a clumsy movement like a bear.
“It’s so ugly.” Demon Lord looked disgusted, and he didn’t intend to help.
“It’s better to be safe.” Lin Chujiu didn’t feel ashamed. She wasn’t a goddess, and she never thought of being a goddess in front of the Demon Lord. Having a good image was not so practical for her, at least not for now.
“It’s good if you know, just follow closely, I won’t turn around to save you.” Demon Lord looked up and down Lin Chujiu, making sure that Lin Chujiu was fine, then turned and walked east.
Lin Chujiu hurriedly followed and prepared to trot all the way and endure hardships. But who would expect Demon Lord will walk slowly all the way? Lin Chujiu could keep up without any effort at all.
“I didn’t expect the Demon Lord to be considerate.” Lin Chujiu immediately understood Demon Lord’s intentions and murmured to herself.
Demon Lord deliberately slowed down his pace, so Lin Chujiu didn’t have to worry. She took out the remaining fruits and continued to eat. If she saw herbs that she wanted on the road, she would pick some of them.
She studied Western medicine, but only dabbled in Chinese medicine. It was only after she married Xiao Wangfu and became familiar with Doctor Wu that she learned more about Chinese medicine.
She doesn’t know many herbs, but some basic herbs, so it’s easy to find. However, Lin Chujiu also knew that one should not be too greedy, she was on her way out now, so Lin Chujiu only picked the herbs she needed.
Chinese medicine needs to be processed. If she picks it up and doesn’t deal with it in time, the medicine will lose its effect, and it will be useless after picking it up.
When Lin Chujiu stopped to collect herbs, Demon Lord usually would not wait for her. Every time Lin Chujiu finished collecting herbs, Lin Chujiu had to trot two steps to keep up.
Every time he heard Lin Chujiu running behind, the corners of Demon Lord’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
This woman was obviously married and she was a princess. Why can’t she act dignified at all? Those who didn’t know would think she was some unmarried girl.
However, dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction. Demon Lord was not dissatisfied because Lin Chujiu stopped to pick herbs, nor did he speed up because of it. As Demon Lord said before, he asked Lin Chujiu to follow him, but he would never turn around to save her.
Of course, Lin Chujiu didn’t need to be rescued by him. Because they didn’t encounter any danger along the way, Lin Chujiu thought that they were not escaping from the jungle, but having a picnic.
Although the road was very safe, Lin Chujiu would not be so foolish as to think that the forest was really safe. After all, it was so safe that she didn’t see even see a rabbit.
Along the way, she often smelled blood. Even if she didn’t see the dead animals, Lin Chujiu could roughly guess what was going on, but she didn’t know whether it was Demon Lord who cleaned up in advance or his subordinates.
However, these were not important to Lin Chujiu. The most important was, where will she go after she goes out?
