After rebirth, I picked up my mortal enemy as my apprentice Chapter 174

The girl in front of him seemed to have been hit by some injury and suddenly fell down holding her chest.

Ji Fan stretched out his hands in time to catch her.

“Sister Nan, are you okay?”

“Stinky…boy…” Ke Jiu left these words and his eyelids gradually closed.

Seeing the girl who had been “chasing” him suddenly fainted, the boy was suddenly a little panicked.

He took a deep breath.

Ji Fan quickly recalled what was mentioned in the Tongjianlu about emergency measures when a partner fainted.

He held her soft and boneless shoulders with one hand and reached out his other hand to her forehead to test the temperature.

“The body temperature is normal, so he probably hasn’t caught a cold.”

He felt her pulse again and made a judgment based on the limited knowledge he had learned from books.

“My pulse seems to be beating much faster than that of an ordinary person. This is a bit strange…”

Ji Fan looked at her face carefully. In the moonlight, the girl’s cheeks were as white as jade and her expression was peaceful.

A faint fragrance entered his nostrils, and the young man suddenly felt a little confused.

“Never mind, Sister Nan doesn’t look seriously injured at the moment, let’s find a place to rest first.”

Thinking of this, he gently picked up Ke Jiu horizontally.

He was lucky and within a quarter of an hour he found a cave less than two meters deep as a place to rest.

The boy glanced at the girl in his arms. Her face was a little pale and her breathing was weak.

He found a flat wall in the cave, carefully placed the girl against it, then turned around and began to clean the cave.

He cleared all the weeds and gravel on the ground one by one, and then he found some hay nearby and spread it on the ground.

Ji Fan looked at his Qiankun bag, hesitated for a moment, and took it out.

“I usually don’t wear it.”

What he was holding now was the Taoist robe that Ke Jiu had given him at the Ji family martial arts competition four years ago.

This cotton white Taoist robe is made of the finest cotton cloth. The entire fabric is pure white and as clean as the first snow.

When you touch it with your fingertips, it feels soft and warm, and it is even light and comfortable when you wear it.

I saw the girl’s beautiful eyebrows were slightly wrinkled in her dream, and she was mumbling uneasy words.

He sighed, and to make her more comfortable, he spread the robe on the hay and helped her lie on it.

A gust of cold wind blew in from outside the cave, brushing across the boy’s cheek, causing pimples to appear on his skin.

“It’s a bit cold.” He touched his pocket, where he found the tinder he had prepared.

Ji Fan looked at Ke Jiu’s condition and saw that she hugged herself tightly with her arms unconsciously. He guessed that she might be feeling a little cold.

Although he has embarked on the path of cultivation, his physical fitness is much better than average.

But it does not mean that you will not get sick, it just means that illness will rarely occur. If you want to completely prevent illness, you must at least practice to the innate level or above.

“Sister Nan is not in good condition right now. If we’re not careful, she might catch a cold. We need to take good care of her.”

He piled up hay and branches, channeled his inner energy to light a tinderbox, and built a bonfire in the small cave.

The flames danced in the otherwise dark cave, dispelling the chill in the air.

From time to time, crackling sounds of sparks could be heard from the bonfire.

The dim firelight covered the girl’s back like a layer of veil, and her porcelain-white face shone in the firelight.

The young man looked at her face, lost in thought without realizing it.

“Sister Nan looks a lot like Master. She’s such a pretty girl. After she enters the sect, there should be a lot of people who like her, right?”

Another gust of cold wind blew into the cave, causing the campfire to sway left and right, and even the flames seemed to be extinguished a little.

He subconsciously wanted to add some more firewood to the campfire, but found that there was not enough hay and branches.

“We have to go outside and find some dry firewood and branches.”

The young man walked out of the cave, and the slightly cold night wind blowing on his face made him vaguely more conscious.

“I have the impression that dry and flammable branches usually contain a certain amount of resin. If that’s the case, it would be better to pick them up in the Huaihe River forest.”

Although he was running in a hurry when he was being “hunted” just now, he still remembered the route along the way.

Relying on his memory, he roughly identified the direction of the Huai forest. Although it was a bit far from the cave, if he hurried, he should be able to get back within an hour.

The boy turned around and glanced at the girl who was sleeping peacefully in the flickering firelight.

“Sister Nan, wait for me, I’ll be back soon.”

The skills he had developed while scavenging in the mountains were not completely wasted, and in less than an hour he had picked up two bundles of suitable firewood in the Huai forest.

Although it took some effort, the young man felt excited for the first time in a long time, but when he rushed back to the cave.

The scene before him made his heart tighten. Most of the firelight in the cave was blocked by two shadows.

Two white apes were surrounding the unconscious girl. They were huge in size and covered with long snow-white hair.

Two pairs of small eyes flashed a strange green light, the face was clearly contoured, and the lips were slightly raised, revealing sharp canine teeth.

One of the white apes squatted beside the girl, lowered its head and sniffed her scent, its nose twitching slightly.

Another white ape stood a little further away, looking around from time to time, as if on guard for his companions.

The young man suddenly stepped into the cave and shouted, “What are you doing? Don’t touch her!”

The white ape nearby suddenly looked up, staring at the young man with green eyes flashing, revealing a hint of surprise.

But soon the ape’s face wrinkled, it opened its mouth and let out a warning roar.

Seeing this, the other white ape quickly stood up, slightly bent its front legs, and bared its teeth at him.

The two white apes seemed ready to attack at any time.

The young man frowned, as he remembered having seen this kind of monkey in the “Jinghang Tongjian·Record of Strange Beasts”, and it was called Heshan Monkey.

They are agile in movement, with well-developed limb muscles, especially the strong forearms, which make them appear extremely powerful.

If these were the only good things, they also seem to have robbed human women and there are some bad records.

The young man’s frown deepened. He drew out the black iron sword without hesitation. The sword light was as dazzling as lightning under the reflection of the campfire.

He stared at the two white apes calmly, then slowly stepped forward with the tip of his sword pointing directly at them.

The corners of their mouths twitched, revealing their sharp teeth, making them look extremely ferocious.

“I’ll give you three seconds to either get out or die!”

Ji Fan looked at them coldly, his true energy burst out from his dantian and attached to the black iron sword.

The white ape realized the threat posed by the boy and let out a low roar, warning him not to come near.

“It seems that you are seeking death!” Ji Fan’s eyes turned cold and he swung his sword forward.

The sword tip broke through the air, making a buzzing sound, and pointed directly at the white ape that had just squatted beside Ke Jiu.

Seeing that its companion was threatened, the other white ape suddenly jumped up and tried to attack the boy from the side.
