Lau Luo was shocked unconscious and she started to feel her breath asphyxiate irregularly, she could also feel a heavy burden befalling her and started to sway slowly that person.
The pain in her cheeks made Lau Luo grimace in pain, she felt her own face and found traces of cramping there which made her start to think since when the Chi beetle could slap others, but the bruises looked not as deep as the wounds inflicted by the Chi beetle, and he just sighed.
He looked at the surprised Mo Yiyang who had already collapsed, he rubbed it with his fingers slowly and woke him up. "Hey.."
Lau Luo could regain her composure as she felt the regular gusts of that person, perhaps sounding like the breath of a sleeping person, a tired person, an exhausted person, but also a slightly short but still regular breath that indicates the person is not dead.
Upon seeing Mo Yiyang close his eyes and a few Chi beetles biting him, Lau Luo instantly felt the autumn shock of thinking the boy had died. And he, can't go back on his back to carry a bunch of dead bodies.
So he patted the injured back softly and for some reason closed his tired eyes until he suddenly fell asleep, even though he was skinny and unwell, but he happily became a bed for others.
Although his body odor was very smelly like a pig's butt but it was better than lying on cold, muddy ground.

Mo Yiyang coughed as he stood up, he could feel a warm glow from the bright sky piercing through the gap of the leaves above him towering up and his eyes drifting upwards to observe the already almost blazing day.
He sat down near Lau Luo then woke her up. "Wake up, it's morning."
It didn't take long for Lau Luo to blink awake, she stood up and smiled. "It's awake."
"All right, let's go home." Lau Luo was like as if she had just felt a huge storm coming down on the two of them, but now the storm understood it had already passed, and most importantly they both survived with intact limbs. He felt happy that they could return home safely despite the injuries in some places and they deserved to be happy or sigh in relief because they had passed through the events between life and death in the wilderness, the forest is home to thousands of Chi animals with martial skills.
The fight he had just fought was fierce to live with, when they were only four and seven years old, respectively, who with such an age they have become the easy target of some wild animals that almost took his life, which of course also makes a miracle that even they have not even turned ten years old, but they could already try to stay alive and survive in the midst of the danger of a savage beast.
He reached out his hand to help Mo Yiyang stand up but this time Mo Yiyang insisted on walking alone, so Lau Luo was inevitably only able to clean it up.
Although their wounds had already healed, but their footsteps felt slow. Mo Yiyang asked Lau Luo. "Do you know our way back?"
"I don't know." He was honest because he himself was an uneducated fool.
Alright, Mo Yiyang would rely on his cleverness to find his way back, first they had to find a stream of water. So he memorized every river they had gone to, as he left a trail between the trees as he walked out alone, he could find the sign he had made to return.
"Consider the largest tree, and go where the roots are. Maybe it can guide us back."
Lau Luo didn't quite understand clearly, she wasn't as smart as that person. So he just nodded and swept it off as ordered.
They walk following the direction of the tree roots, which are usually the roots of the tree will propagate towards the springs. After a long journey, Lau Luo could hear the gurgling sound of river water entering her ears. He hurriedly told MoYiyang happily because he could find his way home.
Mo Yiyang felt astonished. "I don't hear any water."
Lau Luo sharpened her hearing and she was hearing more and more clearly. "I heard it."
The two of them walked for about two kilometers until they managed to find a river with very clear water and also made Mo Yiyang surprised to feel Lau Luo's hearing ability. He clucked in awe because Lau Luo had better ears after only learning a little qi, even though it was not pure qi that it should be.
Lau Luo felt her ears becoming more sensitive, but did not expect it to be this far away. He had felt restless if his ear hearing was wrong and it would be a shame for his pride.
Lau Luo briefly looked at him without blinking, and her eyes widened.
So a great person and feared huh?
She asked. "Can it protect others?"
"I don't know."
"Then, it's normal."
The water flowed very clear and calm, Mo Yiyang covered the water with her white hands then drank it, which instantly made her feel refreshed as she waded through her extremely thirsty and hot dry throat.
He turned his head towards Lau Luo, he knew the boy must also be feeling thirsty after a few days of being trapped in the wilderness.
"You want a drink too?"
Lau Luo nodded then summarized her sleeves upwards, she crouched down next to Yiyang and extended her hand into the river.
"Your hand is hurt let me get it for you."
Mo Yiyang smiled seeing Lau Luo drink the water he took, he used his hand into someone else's glass. Right now, Lau Luo reminded him of his younger brother in the Yin Empire, but the two were not once similar.
"Is it fresh?"
"Fresher than the water I used to drink." Said Lau Luo who usually drank rainwater which of course was also very murky.
"You said while you were drinking." Mo Yiyang said quickly. "You want to choke to death?''
Lau Luo changed into that not-so-grade chatter and she started to observe the water in front of them while starting to remember if Mo Yiyang did not like dirty things so this time she needed to at least clean up once because the smell of sweat had filled his body that smell more terrible and disgusting than buffalo fart and also he could feel the sticky water pouring on his two armpits, he said, it really gave off an unpleasant aroma even to the point of piercing its own kiss to the point of wanting to make it faint.
Knowing how terrible her body odor was, she suddenly wanted to smile bitterly for herself.
"I think I should take a shower first." Lau Luo while looking towards the river in front of them.
Mo Yiyang supported her quickly because she knew that the boy rarely took a bath. "But don't get your hands in the water.".
All right, he can take a quick dip in the river water. Seeing how clear the river was, he began to take off one by one his clothes before plunging into it. After being in the puddle of water Lau Luo raised her hand so as not to get wet like Mo Yiyang's orders.
Mo Yiyang saw him immediately smiling lightly and his eyes narrowed. But he wanted to snap his head, not that he had never seen anyone else so innocent..
Although he looks like a handsome guy from the outside, but his gender..
No need to question!
Woman, she's a girl!
