However, Zhou Hao had a firm expression as he looked at Bai Linglong and said solemnly, “If you give up before you even try, then I’m afraid even the Zenith Heaven Divine Immortal won’t be able to save you.”
Zhou Hao did not force Bai Linglong to treat her wound. Instead, he placed the hemostatic herbs he had just picked in front of her.
“This is a hemostatic plant. You choose what you want to do with it. It’s better if you make that decision yourself.”
Zhou Hao understood that if they did not try, they would never be able to leave this place.
However, even if they failed, it was still better than them sitting here and doing nothing, right?
Therefore, only by trying could they create a miracle!
A moment later, Bai Linglong seemed to have figured it out herself. She threw the medicinal herb Zhou Hao handed her into her mouth and chewed for a moment before applying it to her wound.
The cool feeling allowed her to recover a lot.
However, soon, a change happened!
The originally cloudless sky was instantly filled with dark clouds. The surrounding warmth also suddenly decreased by a lot.
A cold wind whistled as it blew towards Bai Linglong and Zhou Hao, as if it was threatening to freeze their blood!
“Damn, looks like the snowstorm is coming…”
Zhou Hao’s expression changed as he immediately walked to Bai Linglong’s side. He held her hand and quickly ran towards a small cave in the distance.
Bai Linglong had finally recovered a little of her physical strength. However, now that Zhou Hao was holding her hand and running forward, she felt that her legs were weakening again and she could fall at any moment.
Soon, Zhou Hao hid in the cave with Bai Linglong.
Although the cave was not big, it was still more than enough to resist the cold wind.
Even though the wind and frost had been halved, Bai Linglong was still trembling. Her breathing had begun to become hurried, as if the blood in her entire body had been frozen at this moment!
Zhou Hao looked at the trembling Bai Linglong and immediately asked, “If you don’t want to die, come over. If we hug each other, we might be able to warm up a little.”
“However, don’t misunderstand. I don’t mean to force you. If you’re unwilling, then forget it.”
Zhou Hao was only making a suggestion. After all, he didn’t mind either way. His armor was still intact, but Bai Linglong was in a different situation.
The armor on her body was already shattered to pieces, and most of her clothes had also torn apart, revealing her skin that was like fine jade.
If there were no obstacles and she was exposed to the outside wind, Bai Linglong would probably freeze to death before the snowstorm even arrived.
Bai Linglong was indeed frozen by this bone-piercing chill until her teeth chattered, and she was unable to say anything.
Her face was red. After hesitating for a long time, she stood up and walked to Zhou Hao’s side, burrowing into his arms to warm herself.
However, Bai Linglong did not relax. She was still extremely nervous and paid attention to Zhou Hao’s movements at all times to prevent him from suddenly taking advantage of her.
Zhou Hao seemed to have seen through Bai Linglong’s thoughts. He snorted and said, “Miss Bai, you don’t have to worry. I’m a gentleman, so I naturally won’t take advantage of you.”
After Zhou Hao finished speaking, he did not say anything else. Instead, he hugged Bai Linglong tightly and closed his eyes, waiting for the snowstorm to descend.
Bai Linglong subconsciously thought that they would definitely die today and would not be able to escape.
However, if there was really a chance of them surviving, Bai Linglong was still willing to give it a try.
After all, who would want to die young in such a place?
Soon, with a sharp wind sound, a snowstorm quickly descended!
Bai Linglong clearly felt that the temperature in the surrounding air seemed to have decreased by dozens of degrees.
However, even in Zhou Hao’s arms, she still felt the sharp coldness, making it impossible for her to calm down.
Just as Bai Linglong felt that her breathing was starting to become weak and that her entire body was about to freeze…
The snowstorm gradually became weaker and then disappeared.
Fortunately, the snowstorm only lasted for an hour. Otherwise, they would really have frozen to death here.
Zhou Hao did not want to sit and wait for death. He planned to make this cave bigger. That way, at the very least, they could resist the invasion of some wind and rain and reduce their suffering.
No matter how much Bai Linglong disliked Zhou Hao, she had no choice but to take the initiative to help him.
She was also extremely embarrassed after being hugged by him.
Soon, the two of them widened the cave.
Zhou Hao found some branches and piled them in the cave as backup. Then, he picked a few fruits from the surrounding trees. This way, when they got hungry, they could even fill their stomachs.
Zhou Hao lit the branch and looked at the steaming fire. He felt a little better after sensing the warmth.
“We still have to think about how to leave this damn place as soon as possible.”
Zhou Hao looked at Bai Linglong solemnly.
During this period of time, he had tried to contact the outside world every once in a while, but he failed every time.
The signal here was completely blocked, so there was no chance for him to send any messages out or contact the outside world.
