Gu Xijiu was unprepared, so the bottle of wine went flying in the air. Swiftly, the majestic donkey raised its head and grabbed the bottle with its mouth. It popped it open and drank every bit of the wine.
Gu Xijiu was astonished!
Troubled, Zhu Duqing complained, "I am afraid that our journey has to stop here for today."
Gu Xijiu did not really mind the delay. "Let us call it a day." Exhausted, she had to take a rest in the carriage.
After being poisoned, she would get tired very often. With her current condition, there would not be any use even if they made it to the swamp early. Therefore, Gu Xijiu felt that it was better for her to meditate to have a better recovery. Also, the spiritual stones came in handy to increase her spiritual power at that time.
