Chapter 188 Early Signs of Illness
Lin Yi had long known that Jiang Yu liked fluffy cloaks with large fur collars, and this time he brought along the same type.
At the rest stop, Jiang Yu changed into a flesh-pink thick wool suit. The tight skirt hem tightly wrapped around her legs. Lin Yi had also prepared warm fleece-lined sheepskin boots, which she wore over thick leggings under the skirt. Jiang Yu immediately felt sweating.
That wasn't enough. Lin Yi neatly styled her hair and wrapped it all in a woolen hat with a thick veil. Lin Yi explained that the wind was very strong on Shaka's back, and her face had to be covered, especially in the Aurora Empire, where the wind was biting cold.
Jiang Yu was about to complain about the heat when she saw Lin Yi pull a flawless white fur cloak from the box. It reached his ankles and had a beautiful large fur collar. She immediately swallowed her words. Curious, she asked, "Is the Aurora Empire that cold?" If she could wear this kind of furry coat forever, a little cold wouldn't seem so bad.
"It's cold, but we won't stay outside for long," Lin Yi said quickly, assuming Jiang Yu was just feeling cold.
"The Brahma family is located at the foot of the Holy Mountain, on the edge of the Aurora Empire. They are right in our direction, and we can reach the Brahma family directly by crossing the border. The Brahma family has already made arrangements so as not to delay us."
"It's okay, I'm not worried at all with you here."
Shaka was very happy to see Jiang Yu again. Although Shaka was the proudest of the royal griffins, he was always easygoing. The pure golden griffin was dazzling, and he lowered his noble head, allowing Jiang Yu to stroke him, emitting a low cry. When a griffin is happy, its low cry is very melodious, so it is easy to tell their emotions.
Jiang Yu affectionately petted it and happily greeted it, but suddenly felt Shaka nervously hide behind her. When she turned around, she saw Moa standing next to her with wide pupils, looking like he was about to drool. Jiang Yu was so angry that she emphasized in a low voice, "Although Shaka is golden, you can't eat him!"
"Okay..." Moya was a little disappointed. It looked so delicious, all golden, but they wouldn't let her eat it.
"What's wrong with him? Does he even eat griffins?" Lin Yi was stunned and asked, pointing at Moa with trembling hands. That's no different from cannibalism. He was incredibly audacious. He couldn't believe that any creature could actually love its prey.
"No, he eats gold and the like. The rarer and more precious the treasure, the more he loves to eat it." It is indeed a gold-devouring beast. Fortunately, the entire ocean is his canteen, and he can find a way to feed himself. Otherwise, she definitely couldn't afford to raise him.
"Damn," Lin Yi exclaimed, "Awesome."
"So you should bring more gold coins and stuff, um, Moya might need to eat on the way." Hearing Jiang Yu say this, Moya squinted and nodded. Great, that way he wouldn't have to jump into the sea halfway to find food. However, he still explained, "This is just my habitual diet. I can actually eat anything, including human food. But gold coins are still my favorite snack."
"Okay, okay, I understand." Lin Yi rummaged through the box and pulled out a small bag full of gold coins. "You can carry this for now, and ask me for more if you need more, okay?"
"Okay, okay!" Moya responded happily, his handsome yet innocent face making Lin Yi snort coldly. Jiang Yu then noticed that Moya was also wearing a fur cloak with a large fur collar, but it was milky white with a warm yellow sheen, which looked very good with his purple hair.
"Alright, alright, you can ride Jon Snow. I originally prepared a golden griffin for you, but it would be troublesome if you lost your senses halfway and ate it. You should ride the white one instead." After saying that, he took a snow-white griffin from the guard. The snow-white griffin was obviously a little scared, and even trembled a little when it got close to Moa.
Moya grinned and said, "Don't be afraid, you cute little thing."
Lin Yi, being a soldier, was used to long-distance journeys between the border legion and Hollandpur's home. Moya, being a descendant of a demigod, naturally didn't consider this distance a problem. Only Jiang Yu felt back and leg pain and was drowsy.
Ever since she regained her memories, she had been in a state of mental tension underwater. When she came to the surface and was caught off guard, she learned everything about Fan Qingyin all at once. She was shocked, angry, scared and terrified. Fortunately, Lin Yi arrived in time to give her emotional support, otherwise she would have collapsed long ago.
But now the consequences of forcing herself to stay awake were becoming apparent. She was placed in front of Lin Yi, held tightly in his arms, and common sense and experience reminded her that her drowsiness wasn't normal fatigue, but a symptom of an impending illness. Her mind suddenly became foggy. Damn it, her physical condition was really too poor; of all times, she had to get sick at the most inopportune time.
Lin Yi was the first to notice the abnormality in the person in his arms. He thought she was just tired and sleepy and wanted to take a nap. He even comforted her and told her to take a nap and persevere until they arrived. But the result was that the person in his arms was breathing more and more heavily and felt uncomfortable no matter how she changed positions. Lin Yi knew that Jiang Yu was sick.
He blamed himself for not letting her rest for a couple more days at the rest stop, and for not being proactive enough in giving her some medicine. Lin Yi wanted to punch himself, and even thought that if Fan Qingyin were here, she could pull off some divine favor to help Jiang Yu recover. Just as he was blaming himself and feeling annoyed, a thought flashed through his mind, and he turned around to ask the guy not far behind him who was munching on gold coins on the back of a griffin;
"Hey, Xiaoyu isn't feeling well. She seems to be sick. Do you have any ideas?"
Moya was initially a little anxious, and stopped eating the gold coins: "What's going on? How could Jiangjiang be sick?" Then she tilted her head, thought for a few moments, and quickly calmed down. Almost at the same time, a purple crystal-like tentacle suddenly appeared from under her clothes. It was crystal clear and seemed to be flowing with a sacred liquid.
The white griffin named Jon Snow lurched to the side, nearly falling into the sea from the sudden surge of oppressive power. It let out a mournful cry, seemingly on the verge of losing its balance. Moa gently stroked Jon Snow's wings and head a few times. No one knew how Jon Snow managed it, but after a few flaps of its wings, it regained its balance and continued flying normally, though its flight posture looked stiff, as if it had been kidnapped.
This was the first time Lin Yi had seen Moa's tentacles. He had heard that the powerful and eerie sea monster's tentacles, which emerged from the water, were as beautiful as a miracle. Now that he had seen them with his own eyes, he knew they were true. When it revealed its true form and the tentacles returned to their original enormous size, it would probably be even more shocking. But why was it showing its tentacles at this time?
As if sensing Lin Yi's confusion and bewilderment, Moya stretched out its tentacles directly in front of Lin Yi and said succinctly, "Cut it open and give it to Jiang Jiang to drink."
