Chapter 149 is over; I'm going to starve to death on the mountain.
Shen Rugo had no idea what Zhao Cai was thinking. Seeing that Zhao Cai had only eaten one Fire Spirit Fruit and then stopped eating, she assumed it was truly full. So she reached out and said, "Zhao Cai, I'll put this fruit away for you, so you don't get too full. Don't worry, this fruit is yours, I definitely won't take it from you!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Zhao Cai quickly handed the Fire Spirit Fruit to Shen Rugo.
Even if it longs for it, it can't scare its little master, because it will still need its little master to carry it flying in the future.
Shen Rugo put the Fire Spirit Fruit into her storage bag, then casually took out two ordinary spirit fruits from the bag and popped them into her mouth, chewing them noisily.
Although it is also a spiritual fruit containing spiritual power, it is worlds apart from the Fire Spirit Fruit.
Even after eating two, Shen Rugo still felt her stomach was empty, and it kept making gurgling noises.
"Your Highness, your stomach is growling! Hahaha!"
Zhao Cai couldn't help but burst into laughter.
I'm so hungry!
Eating these fruits alone won't do. I'm still only at the Qi Refining stage and can't abstain from grains. I have to go down the mountain to find something to eat.
Shen Rugo clutched her stomach and walked out of the cave.
The mountain was shrouded in mist, and the scenery was dreamlike. However, looking down, the bottom was invisible, and no one knew how high the mountain was or how deep the valley was.
Oops!
I can't fly on a sword, so how am I supposed to get down from such a high mountain?
Shen Rugo cried out in her heart.
In her anxiety, she remembered a bamboo slip that Chen Tianba had given her, which contained her contact information.
Take it out immediately and try to practice according to the method taught by Chen Tianba.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no response.
"Could the contact information my fourth senior brother gave me be fake?"
"Or is it that Fourth Senior Brother is currently cultivating diligently and in a meditative state, and therefore cannot see my message at all?"
Shen Rugo felt helpless and looked at the mountain peak not far away, the one where Xiao Qiushui was located.
She hoped to see Xiao Qiushui so that he could notify the other senior brothers to come and take her down the mountain to find food.
The mountain is so high. With my small frame and short legs, I don't know how long it will take to reach the bottom.
To her surprise, no matter how hard she looked, there wasn't a single person on the opposite mountain peak.
"Fifth Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Brother!"
She shouted repeatedly, but her voice echoed on Jade Maiden Peak without any response.
"Now how to do?"
Shen Rugo was completely stunned.
Take another look at the endless valley beneath the white clouds.
Just then, her stomach started growling loudly again.
During this period, I've been busy with cultivation, breakthroughs and advancements, and traveling around. It seems like I haven't had a proper meal at all; my body is truly empty.
"Zhao Cai, we can't go down! What are we going to do? Waaah, I'm so hungry!"
Shen Rugo hugged Zhaocai and almost burst into tears.
"Your Highness, I don't know what to do either. Zhaocai (a type of lucky charm) is useless; it can't fly and can't take you down the mountain!"
Zhao Cai said with his head drooping.
"Zhao Cai is still young, it's not your fault. It's all my fault. I was in a moment of excitement and chased away all the senior brothers. Now no one is leading us down the mountain!"
While comforting Zhao Cai, Shen Rugo was filled with remorse.
"Your Highness, why don't we hurry down the mountain while you still have the strength? If we delay any longer, and you get too hungry to go down the mountain, we'll be in big trouble!"
"Zhao Cai is right. We can't just sit here and wait to die. We must take the initiative to find a way out!"
Shen Rugo quickly perked up and strode down the mountain.
The lucky charm still flew on her shoulder.
This Jade Maiden Peak is a barren mountain with no way to go.
When Shen Rugo came up, Xiao Changkong and the others brought her up on their swords.
Going down the mountain would be disastrous.
The area was overgrown with vines and trees, making it impossible to find a path.
Every step he took was unsteady and stumbling.
If she is not careful, Shen Rugo could be scratched by the tree branches or slip and fall.
The mountain was steep and there was nowhere to put your feet. Shen Rugo slipped and slid with every step, struggling to clear a path as she moved forward with difficulty.
After more than half an hour, they hadn't even gone down two hundred meters of the mountain.
In just over half an hour, Shen Rugo's dress had been torn to shreds.
Left with no other choice, Shen Rugo had to change into the glass dress that Chen Tianba had given her.
The mid-grade spiritual treasure is indeed powerful; those tree branches can no longer scratch it.
However, Shen Rugo's small face was covered with bloody scratches.
"Your Highness, please be careful and don't slip again!"
"Your Highness, this rock is too slippery. You must watch your step carefully and not fall!"
"Your Highness, if all else fails, you can cover your face with a glass-like dress to avoid disfigurement!"
Zhao Cai was really worried sick, watching Shen Rugo walk down step by step, calling out to her from her shoulder.
Another hour passed, and looking down, the bottom was still nowhere in sight. It was unclear how far it was from the bottom of the mountain.
Looking back up, all you could see were mountain walls; there was nothing else to be seen.
"You stinking senior brothers, you wicked senior brothers, how could you abandon me and not care whether I live or die!"
"Especially Fourth Senior Brother, Chen Laosi, why is there no reply to this broken communication jade slip you gave me? Could it be a fake?"
Shen Rugo plopped down on a rock, panting heavily and complaining incessantly.
She had sent Chen Tianba countless messages, but each time she received no response.
Another hour passed, and the sun was already setting in the west, still neither in the sky nor on the ground.
Just how tall is this mountain?
"Why didn't I choose a shorter mountain peak in the first place?"
After all that fuss, Shen Rugo was both hungry and exhausted.
"Your Highness, the sun is about to set. Hurry up and we must get down the mountain before sunset."
Otherwise, we wouldn't even have a place to rest, and we could easily fall down the valley at night.
Shen Rugo had just sat down to rest for a while when Zhao Cai urged her to hurry up.
"Zhao Cai, I'm so tired and hungry, I can't get down the mountain tonight!"
Shen Rugo touched her slashed face, her expression full of sorrow.
It wasn't that walking down the mountain was tiring, but rather that there was simply no path to follow. Every step required manually clearing away the rocks, branches, and vines that were blocking the way, which was incredibly exhausting.
Shen Rugo's biggest regret now is that she didn't keep a sharp sword or a large knife in her storage bag.
If we had one, going down the mountain wouldn't have been so difficult.
After all, with the seventh level of Qi Refining and the support of spiritual power, clearing the path would be much easier.
"Your Highness, you are the best! Keep it up, I believe in you!"
At this moment, Zhao Cai brings Shen Rugo a bowl of chicken soup for the soul to encourage her.
Although Zhaocai can break rocks with a single bite and even break ancient formations with a single bite, the key point is that it cannot fly.
The man and the bird slowly cleared a path down the mountain.
After half a day, we walked quite a bit further down.
The sun was about to set, but there was still no end in sight.
"Oh no, Zhao Cai, it looks like we'll have to camp out here halfway up the mountain tonight!"
Shen Rugo was exhausted and didn't want to move at all.
This kind of work, clearing roads through mountains, is truly inhuman!
