Chapter 3 Interdependence_1

Qin Shou was utterly baffled, "An old ailment? Does he have a chronic condition that involves nosebleeds? Could it be... leukemia? Has he just been reborn, and now he's about to kick the bucket after meeting a girl? His heart felt instantly heavy, cold and dreary...

Just when he was in the midst of his confusion, the beauty straightened his drooping head, faced her stunningly gorgeous face towards him, and extended a jade finger, "Thankfully, when I ascended, a kind Immortal taught me a little magic, otherwise you'd already be dead."

After speaking, the beauty lightly tapped Qin Shou's nose with her finger, and he clearly saw a green light emitting from the tip of her finger. The green light merged into his nose, feeling somewhat cool, and then the nosebleed stopped. At the same time, his mind began to clear, and the feeling of controlling his body returned.

Qin Shou suddenly thought of the beauty's words, "Immortal Technique? There's Immortal Technique in this world?"

Qin Shou instinctively looked at the corner of a palace that was partially hidden among the clouds in the sky, and a surge of ecstasy rose in his heart! This was a world of cultivation! Even though he was just a Rabbit, in this world, he could cultivate into a demon, transform into human form, and start a new life! With this thought, the initially cold heart was suddenly ablaze with a fire of hope! Qin Shou decided, he wanted to cultivate!

While Qin Shou was lost in thought, he suddenly realized that the beauty's finger was still pressing on his nose and not letting go. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a cool breath continuously entering his body from her finger!

"What's she doing?" Qin Shou was startled because he noticed that this feeling was different from before; previously it was the breath the beauty transferred to him, but now it was like the Yangtze River bursting its banks, pouring down! Even the beauty desperately trying to stop it couldn't!

Qin Shou quickly tilted his head back, but the beauty's fingertip followed, and all of a sudden, she fell to the ground...

"Wuwu... Help... Wuwu, I'm being suffocated... by a Rabbit..." At that moment, the finger finally lifted from his nose, but the Rabbit was almost suffocated to the point of passing out.

Seeing that his vision was darkening from lack of oxygen, the Rabbit somehow mustered the strength to roar, and with a 'boom', he managed to flip the beauty off him!

"Suck—huff... My Cao, that was a narrow escape!" The Rabbit gasped for air, sitting on the ground, and when he turned to look at the girl next to him, he was taken aback.

He saw the girl who had just been lively and smiling was now unconscious, motionless! Her face was deathly pale, devoid of any color!

Qin Shou remembered the bizarre scene just now, his heart trembled—could the girl have just died like that? Sucked dry by him, alive?

Thinking of the girl's selfless act of saving him, Qin Shou's heart sank. He quickly leaned over to check the beauty's breathing, and thankfully, she still had breath.

"Having breath isn't good enough to just lie here though..." Qin Shou looked around, then up at the sky, with the memory of being a dazed Rabbit becoming clearer in his mind, he remembered the way home. Qin Shou shook his big ears and roared, "Let's do this!"

Then the guy ran over and bit the corner of the beauty's garment, beginning to drag her bit by bit. Qin Shou had no idea how this happened; he had never had this much strength before, but now, he was surprisingly strong! Although he wasn't sprinting, he could now slowly move a person by dragging them.

A good half-day went by, and Qin Shou finally dragged the beauty back into a mountain cave.

```

"Such a beautiful lady and such a handsome rabbit living in a shoddy place like this? Is there no justice in the world?" Qin Shou stood at the entrance of the cave and cursed towards the sky. Then he hurried over to a small pond nearby, which was a reservoir.

Although there were many osmanthus trees around, the rainfall was scarce, coming only occasionally. The human and the rabbit relied on this meager rainwater to survive, so they made this reservoir to stay alive.

Luckily, it had rained just this morning, and the reservoir was brimming with water.

Qin Shou looked at the water in the pond as if struck by a thought, then tensed his face like a gentleman of integrity, enunciating each word, "I am a gentleman of integrity, I am doing this to save someone! Yes, that's right! Heh heh... Hehe... Haha... Damn, I can't hold it anymore."

With that thought, Qin Shou dove headfirst into the pond, sucked up a big mouthful of water, then scurried towards the beauty with his head filled with the approaching scene. He was a rabbit, he had no hands, couldn't carry containers, so it should be excusable to carry water in his mouth, right? Feeding the beauty some water later would count as caring for her with love... He swore he had no ulterior motives! Absolutely none—if there were, he'd do it again!

Awoo!

In the small cave, it seemed as if a wolf's howl echoed.

The rabbit ran over joyfully, his heart swelling with excitement, his legs trembling with emotion...

However...

"Yu'er, what's wrong with your legs? Why are you trembling as you hop?" the beauty's voice suddenly came.

Upon hearing this, the rabbit skidded to a halt, his hind legs hung in the air, not touching the ground, his red eyes looked woefully at the beauty who had already sat up, his mouth slightly open as water poured out... In that moment, he felt tears well up in his eyes! The cooked duck had flown away!

"Silly Yu'er, I've worried you again. Look how scared you are, you're about to cry..." the beauty hugged the rabbit, rubbing their cheeks together, and happily said.

This was obviously a misunderstanding, but the rabbit wouldn't bother to explain. To not take advantage of this situation was to be a fool! His emotions were mixed; at this moment, he really felt like slapping himself... Couldn't you move any faster, you fool? It took you half a day to drag her home, and even someone knocked out would have woken by now! Couldn't you have run a little quicker? A few more seconds and there could have been a chance for a kiss!

But a thousand wolf howls would be of no use now, feeling the other's smooth skin, the rabbit squinted his eyes and muttered in his mind, "Sacrifice the lesser for the greater, just be satisfied with what I've got. It's a long night; there'll be opportunities..."

At that moment, the beauty sat on the stone bed, placing the rabbit on her lap, stroking its head as she sighed wistfully, "Yu'er, I'm really quite scared."

Feeling supremely comfortable from the petting, caught between those tight, silky legs, the rabbit lifted its eyelids slightly, not understanding what the beauty meant by being scared. Could it be she was afraid of that wild man who used a door as an ax? That was indeed a problem, but didn't she know Immortal Technique?

PS: This new book is a fragile seedling, survival is not easy, please save, recommend, and click, mwah. Guess the identities of the rabbit and the beauty, hehe.
