REINCARNATION: TRAPPED IN THE WRONG BODY
CHAPTER 53. Science lightens the body
***Top of the Kunlun Mountains***
The peak of the Kunlun Mountains is always covered with eternal snow so it cannot be predicted whether it is still morning or night.
The cold weather at the top of the Kunlun Mountains made Zhong Li aka King wake up from his sleep. Right now King only realized Princess Jing Mi was still leaning against his chest and had not regained her senses.
King looked at the situation around him which was still the same as before. A thick stretch of snow without being seen one other living thing there. Even Xena hasn't returned yet. It was only her and Princess Jing Mi.
"Cold?" mummy King.
King recalled the little blue pill given by Xena. The pills were eaten by the three of them to make the body resistant to the cold for seven hours.
"We've been at the top of the Kunlun Mountains for seven hours" King's heart said.
The effect of the little blue pill was past its time so that King's body could feel the chill over the peak of the Kunlun Mountains.
"The efficacy of immortal grass is great! My body is no longer experiencing symptoms of hypothermia, such as when I arrived at the top of the Kunlun Mountains seven hours ago" King's heart said.
King touched the back of Princess Jing Mi's hand and felt cold.
"Damn! Why is Xena so long?" King grumbled in annoyance over the worry of Princess Jing Mi's plight.
King rubbed the backs of Princess Jing Mi's hands and palms with her hands to keep her warm.

"Young master Zhong Li! Princess Jing Mi!"
There was Xena's voice from a distance and rapid footsteps headed towards King.
"Xena! You're finally back!" said King with an empty eye gaze in the other direction but his hands were still busy rubbing Princess Jing Mi's hands.
"Young master Zhong Li! What are you doing?" xena asked in a surprised tone.
"Princess Jing Mi is cold," replied King.
Xena immediately took out three small blue pill grains after realizing what was going on.
Xena gave two small blue pills to King's hand. King inserted one blue pill into Princess Jing Mi's mouth first before swallowing the other blue pill.
Xena who lowered her head before King did not realize King was putting the blue pill into Princess Jing Mi's mouth smoothly without acting blind. Right now King was more worried about Princess Jing Mi being cold than her lie being exposed.
"Sorry young master Zhong Li. I was stuck for a long time in a snow lotus flower spot" Xena said.
"You got it?" King pretended to ask Xena when he had seen a four-petalled flower and white in Xena's grasp.
"Successfully, young master Zhong Li!" xena answered enthusiastically.
"Keep the flowers first in your bag" King said.
"Alright young master Zhong Li," said Xena.
Xena's eyes rounded big to see the burlap pouch which is the doraemon King's pouch scattered in a mess over the snow.
Xena immediately tidied up all the scattered items deftly and stored the snow lotus flower in a small pouch before storing them into a burlap bag.

"Xena! Check Princess Jing Mi's state now!" king's Order.
"What's wrong with Princess Jing Mi?" ask Xena.
Xena thought Princess Jing Mi was sleeping so soundly that she did not dare to disturb her.
"Princess Jing Mi is injured," King replied briefly.
Xena immediately approached Princess Jing Mi to check on her condition, while King stood up while stretching his sore muscles from sleeping in a sitting position.
Xena opened Princess Jing Mi's mouth slowly to examine the little blue pill that the King had put in earlier. The concoction pill will immediately melt in the mouth while eating so that Xena is sure the blue pill is already in the body of Princess Jing Mi. A while later Xena held Princess Jing Mi's hand and did not feel cold anymore.
"Daughter of Jing Mi! Princess Jing Mi!" Xena tried to call Princess Jing Mi to wake up. Princess Jing Mi slowly opened both eyes.
King took a quick glance at Princess Jing Mi and breathed a sigh of relief as Princess Jing Mi had already regained her senses.
Suddenly Princess Jing Mi coughed loudly and spewed a fresh blood clot over the snow bed .
Xena immediately held onto Princess Jing Mi's wrist to check her pulse. A while later Xena held Princess Jing Mi standing up and the two of them walked towards King.
"Young master Zhong Li. Princess Jing Mi's pulse was strong and her internal injuries had already healed."
Xena reported the results of Princess Jing Mi's state check to King, while Princess Jing Mi also tried to check her own physical condition and felt astonished that the deep wounds caused by the lashing of the white python's tail onto her back had healed.
Princess Jing Mi recalled Zhong Li feeding her something when she lost consciousness earlier even now Princess Jing Mi could smell the smell of blood in her mouth making her curious.
Princess Jing Mi looked towards Zhong Li who was acting blind in front of Xena.
"What did you give me?" ask Princess Jing Mi.
"Being a black python" replied King.
A faint smile expanded at the corner of Princess Jing Mi's lips after hearing King's words. Princess Jing Mi guessed that the giant black python must have lived for a long time and must have eaten a lot of rare grass there . Not surprisingly after eating the bile of the black python snake, he recovered from his internal injuries and could also feel his internal strength increasing.
As Princess Jing Mi picked up the immortal grass, she was astonished to see Zhong Li rip open the belly of the black python to pick up the bile. Princess Jing Mi did not expect King to know the efficacy of bile and save his life earlier.
"Thank you," Princess Jing Mi said.
"I must thank you because Princess Jing Mi did not leave me in the cave earlier," King said honestly.
"Daughter of Jing Mi. I've already obtained the snow lotus flower," Xena said enthusiastically.
"alright. I will use it in the Taoist Temple later. Now it's time for us to leave the top of the Kunlun Mountains," Princess Jing Mi said.
King and Xena nodded their heads together in agreement with Princess Jing Mi's words.
"Xena. We can use the science of lightening the body to come down from the top of the Kunlun Mountains," Princess Jing Mi said.
"Well, Princess Jing Mi!" said Xena.
"I can't science lighten the body" King said.
"In your body there is a strong inner force because of the eternal grass. I'll teach you the theory of the science of lightening the body and the movement of footsteps. We can practice while practicing it," Princess Jing Mi said.
"okay!" king answered enthusiastically.
"OKay?" ask Princess Jing Mi.
"Daughter of Jing Mi. Okay, that means good."
Xena representing King answered Princess Jing Mi's question.
During his time as King's servant, Xena and Hercules often listened to strange words from King's mouth. Words that neither of them understood and of course Hercules asked King the meaning of the words so that Xena knew the meaning now.
Princess Jing Mi hugged King's waist and descended the Kunlun Mountains with the science of lightening the body. King listened intently to the theory of the science of lightening the body and footstep movements taught by Princess Jing Mi.
When King's theories and footsteps did not work well together, Princess Jing Mi taught her patiently and advised King.
"The science of lightening the body is not to fly, but to use force appropriately. I'm sure once you've mastered it, it's easy for you to cross the river with a leaf" Princess Jing Mi said.
