Chapter 197 Nonsense
Chapter 197 Nonsense
Fang Weiyi then noticed the presence of Xiao Zhixue in the room. Instantly, his cheeks flushed, and the blush spread all the way to his ears. He hurriedly pulled up his clothes, trying to cover up the embarrassment on his chest.
"Miss Xiao, what are you singing about?"
Fang Weiyi felt extremely regretful that he had to face Xiao Zhixue in such an awkward manner, which made him feel unprecedentedly embarrassed.
"What happened? Hey, if I hadn't come back in time, you would have killed yourself!"
Xiao Zhixue glared at Fang Weiyi unhappily, with a hint of blame in her tone.
This guy is really stubborn. He always turns a deaf ear to her advice. If he wasn't the son of the Valley Master of the Miraculous Doctor and had no medical skills, she wouldn't bother to care about his life or death.
After being scolded by Xiao Zhixue, Fang Weiyi showed a look of shame on his face.
Indeed, he did not follow Xiao Zhixue's advice, and stubbornly believed that he could use his medical skills to prepare an antidote to cure his own poison.
It was not until he took the precious Blood Lotus Pill that he suddenly realized that his arrogance almost killed himself.
In the end, he still had to rely on Xiao Zhixue's rescue to save his life.
Thinking that Xiao Zhixue had seen his body roughly while he was unconscious, his face felt hot as if it was being roasted by fire.
An ancient traditional thought flashed through his mind. In the Valley of Divine Doctors, a man's body should not be easily shown to a woman, unless that was his wife.
If other women see this, they will have no choice but to marry him.
Xiao Zhixue was not only an expert in medicine, but also a martial arts master comparable to his. More importantly, she had saved him from the brink of life and death twice.
If I tell my father, the owner of the valley, about this, he will definitely approve of this relationship and think it is a good match arranged by God.
At this moment, there were some complex emotions in Fang Weiyi's eyes when he looked at Xiao Zhixue, including gratitude, shyness, and some indescribable feelings.
Xiao Zhixue was completely unaware of this. Seeing that Fang Weiyi was fine, she prepared to leave. She was worried about the safety of her family and had to find them as soon as possible to make sure they were safe in this turbulent time.
If any assassins from Dongchu dared to invade her hometown, she would make sure they never returned and paid the price they deserved.
"You are fine now. I will go ahead."
Xiao Zhixue's words were concise and firm. After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave, leaving behind a resolute back, and continued on her journey to find her family.
Fang Weiyi called out hurriedly, with a hint of urgency in his voice: "Miss Xiao, please stay."
The sound rang out particularly clearly in the quiet room.
Upon hearing the voice, Xiao Zhixue frowned slightly, turned around and looked back, her bright eyes full of confusion, as if wondering what the meaning of Fang Weiyi's sudden call was.
Fang Weiyi quickly tidied up his clothes and moved swiftly, completing the transition from the bed to the ground in almost the blink of an eye. His body's recovery ability was amazing, like a rapidly growing bud in spring, full of vitality and vigor.
Xiao Zhixue stood aside and did not stop it. She just watched the scene quietly with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
When Fang Weiyi stood in front of Xiao Zhixue, a barely perceptible nervousness flashed across his face, and his tone was a bit serious and awkward: "In the Divine Doctor Valley, there is an unwritten tradition that if a man's body is seen by a woman, then the man needs to marry that woman."
When these words were spoken, not only Xiao Zhixue, but even Fang Weiyi himself felt shocked, as if even he himself did not completely believe in this rule.
Fang Jiawen, who was standing by, heard this and interrupted impatiently, "Brother, if that's the case, I should marry Zhixue first."
There was a hint of cunning in his words, and his eyes secretly swept over Xiao Zhixue, as if looking for her reaction.
"why?"
Fang Weiyi turned to look at his brother, his eyes full of confusion, obviously surprised by this sudden statement.
Fang Jiawen mustered up his courage, looked at Xiao Zhixue firmly for a moment, and then whispered, "Because Zhixue...had also seen my body by accident."
This statement was like a bolt from the blue, leaving both people present stunned.
"What did you say?!"
There was a tone of disbelief in Fang Weiyi's voice; he could never have imagined that something like this would happen.
When Xiao Zhixue heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, obviously very angry about the remarks of the two brothers.
"My two lords, who said that you must marry me just because you saw my body? How dare you say such absurd things? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will make you spend the rest of your life lying in bed!"
There was anger in her words, and it was obvious that she was extremely dissatisfied with this feudal ideology.
As a doctor, Xiao Zhixue would inevitably come into contact with the patient's body during her practice. If she followed this logic, wouldn't she have to marry countless times? This absurd idea made her angry and ridiculous.
Xiao Zhixue's rebuttal left the two brothers speechless. They lowered their heads, feeling full of self-blame, realizing that their words and actions just now were too impulsive and they had not considered Xiao Zhixue's feelings at all.
"I don't want to hear this again."
Xiao Zhixue snorted coldly, left Qingfengxuan after saying this, and left two men who were as bewildered as fallen leaves in the wind.
At this time, Fan Yanmu, Ying Yi and Ying Er were following closely behind. Their target was clear, pointing directly at Jin Chengfeng and Du Xuwei.
Du Xuwei was poisoned and his speed slowed down greatly. Every step he took seemed extremely difficult, and the road to escape seemed particularly long and arduous.
Not far away, Fan Yanmu sat steadily on his horse. His eyes penetrated the flying snowflakes and locked onto the two panicked figures in front of him.
The poison in Du Xuwei's body began to take effect. His steps became unsteady, and he eventually ran out of strength and fell heavily to the snow, sending up a shower of snowflakes.
Jin Chengfeng looked back at Du Xuwei who was lying on the ground, and a sneer of disdain appeared on his lips: "He is the governor of Dong Chu, but he can't even walk a few steps properly. He is such a waste."
These words were like ice, instantly freezing the gratitude in Du Xuwei's heart. His eyes became as cold as a knife: "Jin Chengfeng, we are only allied for the sake of interests. If you didn't hold the secret letter that the emperor urgently needed, Xuanyu Hall would not be worth mentioning to me."
After saying that, Du Xuwei endured the severe pain and struggled to stand up again.
As he ran, the poison raged in his body like a poisonous snake, approaching his heart step by step, and his life was in danger.
Just as Jin Chengfeng was preparing to counterattack, the sound of hurried horse hooves was heard in the distance.
He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, only to see Fan Yanmu riding a horse galloping towards them, with Shadow One and Shadow Two following closely behind, heading straight towards them.
Fan Yanmu's speed far exceeded Jin Chengfeng's expectations.
Jin Chengfeng glanced at Du Xuwei, who was trembling in pain, and threw him a small bottle: "Take it, it will temporarily relieve the toxins in your body."
