Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler

Chapter 238: Finding a Way Out (I)

When Liu woke up, he saw that Long was half naked. Only having underpants on, Long put his clothes on a branch and tried to dry them at the fire.

Liu couldn’t believe his eyes and he even thought that he was dreaming.

Given Long’s identity, he didn’t need to do this in person...

However, Liu suddenly thought of the scene when he and Long jumped off the cliff.

What was the last thing he remembered?

Oh, it was the whirlpool in the river. It was so strong and something seemed to be attacking them. What was that? Was that fish or something else?

Liu had no idea because he didn’t see clearly. When he saw that Long was going to be attacked, he instinctively blocked it and he didn’t know what happened next...

When he woke up, he found he was at this place.

Liu sat up from the bed. He stretched and surprisingly found that he had regained some internal strength!

Liu immediately concentrated his mind and strived for greater breakthroughs.

However, Liu gave up over ten minutes later.

Although he felt a little better, he still couldn’t make any breakthrough. There wasn’t enough time.

Long blinked and looked at Liu. Finally, he said, “You’re awake.”

Liu nodded. “Well, what is this place?”

“I don’t know. By the way, Liu Suifeng, do you plan to lose weight?” Long suddenly asked.

Liu was stunned. He didn’t expect Long to ask this. “What?”

Long shrugged his shoulders. “When you were in a coma, I carried you and walked a long way. I really think you’re very heavy. For the sake of your future, I suggest you lose weight.”

Liu’s face darkened. “You’re the one who needs to lose weight!”

Long curled his lips. “I can take care of myself, but you can’t!”

“You...” Liu was furious.

“You’re more powerful than me, aren’t you? Why are you so miserable now? Do you still have a fever?” Long asked.

Liu pursed his lips and just found that his body was a little hot, but he didn’t feel very bad.

“I’m fine.” Liu glared at Long. “You’re all right because I suffered all the pain for you in the river!”

“Oh, so it is.” Long nodded as he finally realized that. He doubted it earlier and it turned out to be true...

Liu got out of bed. Noticing that his clothes and shoes were drenched, he frowned.

“I planned to dry your clothes after mine are okay. I didn’t expect you to wake up so early. Come and warm yourself. This place is so cold.”

Liu decided to dry his clothes first before going to check the situation outside.

So, after getting out of bed, Liu sat down beside the fire at will. Fortunately, there were two chairs in the room and he didn’t need to sit on the ground.

“There’s not enough firewood, but you can dry yourself first. I got all of the firewood. You’ll have to get some more later.” Long said that as if he had forgotten Liu saved him earlier.

“Dry myself? I’m drying my clothes, okay?” Liu stressed.

Long said calmly, “Oh, I’m sorry. I omitted a few words.”

Liu was angry. “How can you speak like that? This is no fun!”

Long yawned lazily. “My clothes are dry. There are only my shoes left.”

Long said as he put his shoes on the branch. After putting the branch by the fire, he went to bed.

In the strict sense, it couldn’t be called a bed. That was just a wooden plank and there wasn’t quilt on it. Anyway, people could still lie on it, right?

“I’m exhausted and it’s dark. I’ll sleep first.”

Liu was speechless, wondering where he could sleep later.

Long was really tired. Soon after going to bed, he closed his eyes and began to snore.

Liu couldn’t believe that Long just fell asleep like that. He didn’t think there was anyone else who could fall asleep faster than Long.

Thinking about that, Liu began to dry his clothes by the fire.

His internal strength had recovered a little.

With the help of the internal strength and the fire, his clothes and shoes were dry after about half an hour.

There was not much firewood left. So Liu planned to get some more and tried to figure out what was going on outside.

To Liu’s surprise... he didn’t know this place at all. It seemed that this area was very large and desolate.

Apart from that, he didn’t see any wild animals.

He didn’t dare to go too far away from the hut, for fear that someone would do harm to Long.

When he came back, Liu brought back two hares and a pile of firewood.

Liu found the two hares by accident. Without them, Liu and Long would be so miserable that they wouldn’t have anything to eat.

There was some water in the room, which was prepared by Long. It should be taken from the river and had been boiled.

After roasting the two hares, Liu ate one and put the other one aside. There was no seasoning, so it tasted really bad.

Liu also knew that Long hadn’t eaten anything for a long time, but he was really exhausted, because the hares had been roasted and he still didn’t wake up.

After putting more firewood to the fire, Liu looked at the bed and thought about where to sleep. At this time, Long sniffed and suddenly opened his eyes. Then, his stomach began to growl.

The corners of Liu’s lips twitched. He just thought that Long was too tired to wake up, but unexpectedly, Long opened his eyes.

“I smelt meat,” Long said.

Liu raised his eyebrows. “Yes, you’re right.”

“You can’t do martial arts, right? I didn’t expect you to hunt.” Long was very surprised.

Hearing that Long seemed to be disdainful of him because he had lost his martial arts, Liu got furious. He snorted and said coldly, “Does every hunter need to do excellent martial arts?”
