"Wuyi, this is a Baijie pill. It can relieve all poisons. Take it first. I'll check your wound immediately, okay?”Chu Nanfeng said in a low voice as he gently stuffed two fragrant pills into Que Wuyi's mouth.
Que Wuyi nodded. His small body, which was leaning against Chu Nanfeng's chest, could not help but tremble." Big Brother Chu, are…are you alright? Where's that stupid snake? Did it bite you?"
It turned out that a snake had slithered to Chu Nanfeng's side and wanted to bite him. Que Wuyi saw it and pushed Chu Nanfeng away without thinking. Instead, he let himself be bitten by the snake. The pain made her feel like she was dying. Her entire body was cold and trembling. Her lips turned black and she couldn't even speak.
"Of course it's going to see its snake ancestor. Think about it, this kind of poisonous snake that would attack people for no reason, would I let it live?”Chu Nanfeng consoled her, but an indescribable feeling arose in his heart.
This girl was so kind that it made one's heart ache! He was actually willing to be bitten by a snake for someone he barely knew? This was the first time someone had done this for him. He was both touched and surprised.
In the past, he didn't understand why this little girl would do such a stupid act of acknowledging a stranger as her mother for the sake of the Nine Phoenix Ring. But after what happened just now, he understood that although this little girl was crafty, eccentric, shameless, and even full of vulgarities, she was a kind little girl who would make people want to dote on her from the bottom of their hearts, love her, and spoil her.
For example, she didn't have to care about the poisonous snake just now and let him be bitten by it. After all, he was a doctor. How could a doctor not understand snakes? However, she pushed him away and let herself be bitten by the snake.
It was also like when she was in the broken temple. She would rather be beaten black and blue than let anyone hurt Ling Xiu. Even though Ling Xiu was a temporary mother that she had "rented" for fifty taels of silver, she still treated Ling Xiu like her own mother. Every day, she would leave early and return late. She would seriously pretend to be a little beggar and give her food that she had begged or stolen.
She really wanted to see who her master was to be able to teach such an innocent and kind little thing! As Chu Nanfeng thought about it, he looked at Que Wuyi with a hint of gentleness in his eyes that he did not notice.
Que Wuyi's small hand grabbed Chu Nanfeng's lapel and mumbled,""But…I heard Master say that snakes don't attack people. If that's the case, why did that stupid snake want to bite you?”
Chu Nanfeng was slightly taken aback. A hint of guilt appeared on his handsome face." This…How should I put this? I…I really don't know where to start.”
He shook his head as if he did not know how to explain why the snake, which never attacked people, wanted to bite him. That was because the snake had been attracted by him.
When he thought of this, he could not help but think of Chu Ruoyi's strange baby sister.
Chu Ruoyi liked to raise snakes since she was young and liked to hide in a pile of snakes. As her second brother, in order to satisfy her baby sister's quirks, he had no choice but to carry medicine that would attract poisonous snakes with him and help Chu Ruoyi catch snakes. Therefore, as long as there were snakes gathering, regardless of size, they would automatically come looking for them when they smelled it. That snake had suddenly appeared because it was attracted by the smell of the medicine on his body, but it had unexpectedly caused Que Wuyi to be bitten.
At the thought of this, Chu Nanfeng could not help but secretly blame Chu Ruoyi. If it were not for her, why would he need to get the medicine that would attract snakes? Damn this little brat who gave him a headache. He swore that he would get a snake to bite Zhuge Rongruo next time. Otherwise, that little brat would never know how painful it was to be bitten by a snake!
" Of course there's a reason," Chu Nanfeng said softly." I'll tell you when you're better." Now tell me, where did that stupid snake bite you?”
Que Wuyi bit his lip, and a blush appeared on his pale face. He stammered,"On…on my thigh."
Chu Nanfeng was stunned. He lowered his head and looked at her slender legs." Thigh?”
Her face turned even redder." Yes! It's on my thigh. Big Brother Chu, I think…I should be fine because I took the antidote…"
He frowned and his expression was unusually solemn." You did take the antidote, but that medicine can only cure ordinary snake venom. However, the one just now was a very rare red-eyed golden snake. The red-eyed golden snake was extremely poisonous and was known as the three-step fall.”
"Three steps down?"
"Right, that is to say that as long as you are bitten by the Scarlet Eyed Golden Snake, you will die after taking three steps.”
"Then…why am I still alive?”
Chu Nanfeng smiled." There are many reasons. First, you didn't take three steps. Second, with me by your side, even a hundred Scarlet Eyed Golden Snakes won't be able to bite you to death. Thirdly, you have to bring me to treat your master, so that stupid snake won't bite you to death! Don't talk now. I'll take a look at your wound. Otherwise, the longer you delay, the deeper the poison will be.”
Without waiting for Que Wuyi's refusal, Chu Nanfeng lifted Que Wuyi's skirt and removed her trousers, revealing the two deep and thin teeth marks on her thigh.
He tore a long strip of cloth from his clothes and tied it around the wound on Que Wuyi's thigh to stop the poison from seeping up. Then, he stretched out his hand and gently pressed around the wound. He focused on the red, swollen, and blackened skin, as well as the transparent liquid that was slightly seeping out of the wound.
All of a sudden, they heard Que Wuyi shout in a low voice," Big Brother Chu, don't! You'll be poisoned! You'll be poisoned if you do this…"
It turned out that in order to help Que Wuyi suck out the poison, Chu Nanfeng had actually used his mouth to suck at Que Wuyi's wound before spitting it out.
Que Wuyi could not stop struggling and shouting. His eyes were already filled with tears." Big Brother Chu, don't do this. You can't be poisoned. I don't want you to be poisoned! If you are poisoned, what will happen to Master? What should I do? Big Brother Chu, Big Brother Chu…"
However, Chu Nanfeng turned a deaf ear to Que Wuyi's struggles and calls. He continued to suck out the poison for her until the black blood turned red, until her wound felt pain, and until he thought that the poison had been sucked clean. Only then did he raise his head and smile at Que Wuyi.
"Silly girl! If you were bitten by a poisonous snake for Brother Chu, what's the big deal about Brother Chu inhaling a few mouthfuls of poison for you? Besides, I'm a doctor, and a doctor who specializes in making poisons, remember?”
" But…but…" Que Wuyi looked at him with tears in his eyes.
"But I don't want you to be poisoned! If you were to die from the poison, what would happen to Master? You promised me that you would treat Master's illness, so I don't want you to be poisoned. I don't want you to be poisoned!”
Hearing this, a touch of gentleness appeared in his eyes. Are you that worried about me?"
She sobbed." Yes! I'm really worried about you. I don't like it when you get poisoned.”
"Why? I'm just a doctor. Why are you so worried about me?”
"I told you, if you were poisoned, who would treat Master? And…and…"
"And what?"
"Besides, you're so good to me. Of course, I don't want you to be poisoned.”
"Did others not treat you well?" As Chu Nanfeng spoke, he tore off a piece of cloth from his body and took out the antidote he carried with him. He gently sprinkled it on her wound and gently bandaged it.
She pouted and shook her head, her large round eyes peeking at him." You're the first person who's been good to me. Although you scolded me at first, you scolded me very gently and not fiercely at all. You don't blame me for stealing your Nine Phoenix Ring and even giving me money. You wanted me to bury Aunt Ling, you wanted me to buy clothes, and now you're taking drugs for me. I…"
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Nanfeng helped her up and stuffed two antidotes into her mouth.
She bit her lips shyly. After a while, she suddenly threw herself into his arms and kissed his face. "I like you! Brother Chu, I like you so much!"
Chu Nanfeng was stunned. This time, he did not reject her and reached out to hug her. "Is that so?"
"That's right! You're good to me, so I like you.”
"Then if he doesn't treat you well, will you hate him?”
Que Wuyi smiled and said naturally,"It can't be! If I hate this person just because he doesn't treat me well, then there are too many people I hate. How unhappy would that be?”
Chu Nanfeng felt that there was something wrong with her words. Just as he was about to continue asking, she spoke again.
"Brother Chu, are you engaged or have a wife?”
"No, I haven't married yet, nor am I engaged.”
The young woman looked at him with a red face." Then…do you have a girl you like?”
Chu Nanfeng looked at her with a smile full of interest." A girl you like? Up until now, there hasn't been any."
Que Wuyi didn't understand the hidden meaning behind Chu Nanfeng's words and continued asking,""Then…do you like me a little?”
His eyes turned dark and deep." Like?”
"That's right! I want to know, do you like me even a little? Just a little bit will do, right? Did you?"
He nodded and caressed her cute little face." Yes, I like you, and not just a little bit, but a lot.”
Hearing Chu Nanfeng say that he liked her in many ways, Que Wuyi was so happy that his face turned red." Then…Big Brother Chu, I…I'll marry you and be your wife, alright?”
Chu Nanfeng raised his eyebrows. There was surprise, joy, disbelief, and even more emotions in his eyes.
"Why do you want to marry me?" he asked. More than a month ago, you were still scolding me and calling me a stinky phoenix and a big stupid bird. Why do you want to marry me now?”
Que Wuyi had an innocent look on his face, but his expression was very serious. "Because you're good to me and saved my life. Because I like you, I want to marry you and follow you and accompany you for the rest of my life.”
"Just like that?"
Que Wuyi nodded vigorously. That's it. I like you, so I want to marry you! Can I? Brother Chu, can I marry you?”
Chu Nanfeng had never thought that a lady would actually propose to a man in such a brazen manner. Furthermore, the reason was so simple yet so sincere that there was no room for rejection.
He stroked her hair and gave her a confident and gentle smile. He followed her words and said,"Alright, you can marry me."
Que Wuyi's small mouth was slightly agape. He was so happy that he was a little dumbfounded." You said that I can marry you. Is that true?”
"Of course it's true. The Nine Phoenixes of Dunhuang have always kept their word.”
Que Wuyi stared blankly at Chu Nanfeng, unable to speak for a long time.
Suddenly, she threw herself into Chu Nanfeng's arms and hugged him tightly. She choked and said,""Brother Chu, thank you. Thank you for agreeing to marry me. Thank you! I knew you were the best. I knew you wouldn't reject me!”
Chu Nanfeng smiled. He hugged her and let her lie on the grass. He carefully covered her with his outer shirt." Alright, let's sleep now. We'll set off tomorrow when your leg doesn't hurt anymore, okay?"”
Que Wuyi nodded happily.”
Fengjie was the largest town before entering Wushan.
As the two of them were travel-worn and Que Wuyi had been poisoned, Chu Nanfeng found the largest inn in the area to stay the moment they entered Fengjie. He first had a good meal and then asked the innkeeper to buy two sets of new clothes for them.
There was no need to talk about Chu Nanfeng. He was already very handsome and handsome. After changing into the new clothes made from the white silk painting, he looked even more handsome and divine.
On the other hand, Que Wuyi, this little girl, really fulfilled the saying that Buddha needs golden clothes, and people need clothes.
In fact, Chu Nanfeng had long known that this little girl was quite good-looking. Although she always made herself dirty and miserable, pretending to be a little beggar and an old lady, judging from her delicate facial features and slender figure, Chu Nanfeng knew that if she dressed up properly, this little girl would definitely be a great beauty. However, he never thought that she would be so beautiful that he couldn't bear to look away.
Her eyebrows were like jade feathers, her skin was like cream, her teeth were like gourd rhinoceros, and her hands were like soft hands. Her small face was like a peach blossom petal, white with a tinge of red. Her eyes were watery and bright, revealing a hint of intelligence, innocence, and wildness. Her cherry-like red lips were lightly biting at this moment, revealing the nervousness in her heart.
The Lady Boss of the inn had good taste and helped Que Wuyi to choose a set of clothes that could match her petite figure. She wore an agarwood colored dress with a jade-colored creased eyebrow and a white silk skirt. Her long washed hair was naturally scattered behind her and tied up simply with a parrot-green hairband. Her hair made her face look like the morning glow, and her color was like spring flowers. She was beautiful and cute, like a peony in the wind, like a peony in the dew. It made people surprised and happy, love and hurt.
Que Wuyi was so nervous that his heart was about to leap out of his chest when he saw Chu Nanfeng merely looking at him without saying a word.
She walked up to Chu Nanfeng, wringing her hands." Big Brother Chu, I…I look good in this.”
Chu Nanfeng didn't say anything. He reached into his bosom and took out a necklace to put on Que Wuyi.
Que Wuyi's small mouth was wide open because no one had ever given her a gift in her life, and it was such an expensive gift.
Chu Nanfeng teased," Be careful. Your mouth is so wide open. If a mosquito flies in, don't ask me to save you!"”
Que Wuyi quickly shut his mouth, but he was still trembling with joy." This…is for me?”
"You don't like it? If you don't like it, then return it to me." As he spoke, he really reached out to take the necklace back.
Que Wuyi immediately jumped far away and held the necklace tightly. He was so happy that tears fell from his eyes. He was so happy that he was incoherent." I like it. Of course I like it. I like it very much. I like it so much that I'm about to fly into the sky..."
Chu Nanfeng couldn't help but laugh when he saw how happy the little girl was. Had this little girl never accepted anything from others before? How could a necklace alone make her so happy that she was jumping around the room like a caterpillar?
Que Wuyi happily jumped back in front of him and held his hand tightly." Brother Chu, I'll cook for you, okay?"”
Chu Nanfeng was stunned." Cooking? Aren't we in a restaurant or an inn? Why do you still want to cook?"
"Because you gave me a necklace, so I have to give it back to you. But I don't have anything on me, and I don't know anything. I only know how to cook, so I'll cook for you, okay?”
He shook his head, and a strange light shone in his eyes." No, I don't need you to cook in return. You have a very good return gift right now, you know?”
Que Wuyi tilted her head and frowned." Really? Why didn't I know?"
"Close your eyes," he said in a low, hoarse voice,"and you'll know in a moment.”
"Close your eyes? Is that so?" Que Wuyi closed his eyes, his long eyelashes fluttering uneasily.
"Yes, open your mouth now, yes, that's it!”
Chu Nanfeng lowered his head and used his lips to slowly seal Que Wuyi's ignorant little mouth.
Que Wuyi seemed to be frightened and subconsciously wanted to avoid him." Don't…"
He reached out to hug her and gently lifted her face to face him." Little fool! Don't you want to marry me?"
She nodded in confusion." Yes, I want to marry you!”
"In that case, be good and don't move. Let me kiss you properly. This is one of the things a wife should do to her husband. It's also a gift from you.”
She nodded in a daze and closed her eyes obediently.
Chu Nanfeng covered her mouth and carefully sucked on it as if he was holding a fragile treasure. He also licked it gently as if he was afraid that she would be frightened. The tip of his tongue traced her small and plump lips until she adapted to him and no longer rejected him. Only then did he truly seal her mouth. He sucked and teased her violently and kissed her passionately until she could barely breathe. Only then did he let go of her longingly.
Que Wuyi had a silly look on her face. Her small mouth was wide open as she stared at Chu Nanfeng with her round eyes. She couldn't speak for a long time, as if she didn't understand what Chu Nanfeng had just done to her. She only knew that she didn't hate that feeling. In fact…she liked it a little.
When he saw Que Wuyi standing there in a daze, his face filled with confusion and bewilderment, an indescribable feeling of affection welled up in his heart. This girl was so innocent that she did not know anything.
She didn't know how to guard against men and women, nor did she know the difference between etiquette. She didn't have any schemes at all. When she was happy, she would jump around the house. When she liked him, she would say that she wanted to marry him. When she was angry, she would swing her little fists and fight with someone. When she was serious, she would even kneel and beg for mercy. It was the first time he met someone like her, who was as pure as a piece of white paper. This was also the first time he was moved by a woman. Yes! She moved his heart, made his heart ache, and made him want to teach her, pamper her, and protect her.
He lowered his head and wanted to kiss Que Wuyi again, to teach this little wife of his how to kiss. Suddenly, a chill ran down his back.
He subconsciously picked Que Wuyi up and rolled on the ground. Countless arrows broke through the window and shot towards the two of them. If Chu Nanfeng hadn't dodged quickly, the two of them would have become targets.
Que Wuyi was so frightened that his face turned pale. He hugged Chu Nanfeng tightly with his small hands." Big…Big Brother Chu…"
Chu Nanfeng hugged her and kicked the table over. He used the table as a shield and hid behind it. "It's okay. With Big Brother Chu here, nothing will happen!”
"But…"
Before the two of them could finish their words, arrows rained down on them again. One of them even hit Que Wuyi's head, scaring her so much that she closed her eyes and screamed,""Wow! I'm dead, I'm dead. Brother Chu, my head was shot. I'm definitely going to die.”
Chu Nanfeng couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard her scream. However, when he focused his gaze, he realized that the arrow had only hit the table and was still an inch away from Que Wuyi's head. It had not hit her.
He heaved a sigh of relief and pulled out the arrow." It's alright. Wuyi, look. Your head is still fine. You're fine."”
Que Wuyi quietly opened his eyes and rubbed his head. Sure enough, his eyes, nose, and mouth were still in their original places. He did not move, did not bleed, and of course, was not injured.
Que Wuyi heaved a sigh of relief and grabbed Chu Nanfeng's sleeve, not daring to let go." But those bad guys are still outside. What should we do?”
He nodded with a serious expression. According to my estimation, there are at least ten people outside, and all of them have a foundation in martial arts. They are not ordinary archers.”
Upon hearing Chu Nanfeng's words, Que Wuyi, who was already so frightened that he was incoherent, started to spout even more nonsense." Then what should we do? How are we going to get out? If he went out, would he be shot all over his body? I haven't seen Master yet, so I don't want to die yet. I don't want to see Master with holes all over my body. If that happens, Master won't be able to recognize me!
Brother Chu, your martial arts are better and you are more famous. Can you tell them that they can kill me when I see my master? Alright? Alright?"
Chu Nanfeng was stunned." Wuyi, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by someone wants to kill you? Don't talk nonsense, these people are here for me…"
Que Wuyi shook his head and held his little head with both hands. His face was pale." No, it's true. They really came to kill me! From the moment I left the mountain, someone wanted to kill me. No matter how hard I tried to run, hide, or even turn myself into a pig and hide in a pigsty, they still had a way to find me.
Brother Chu, I'm so scared, I'm really scared! I don't want to die yet. I want to see Master. I want to marry you. I want to give birth to your baby. I…"
Chu Nanfeng could not help but laugh." Idiot! You're just a little girl. How could anyone want to kill you? Don't let your imagination run wild, those people are…"
Before Chu Nanfeng could finish his sentence, a rain of arrows shot towards the two of them. No, it should be directed at Que Wuyi. That was because all the arrows were aimed at Que Wuyi's hiding spot. If it wasn't for the table and Chu Nanfeng's protection, Que Wuyi would have already turned into a beehive.
Could it be that…someone really wanted to kill this innocent and lively little girl who didn't understand the ways of the world?
Just as he was thinking about this, hurried footsteps came from the door." Your Highness, Tenth Highness, it's me. I'm Dou Qing. Tenth Highness, are you alright?"”
Chu Nanfeng's face lit up when he suddenly heard Dou Qing's voice." Dou Qing, I'm here. Take some men and get rid of those people outside. Remember to leave one alive so that we can ask about the matter, understand?"”
"Yes, sir! Don't worry, Tenth Highness, Dou Qing knows!”
Dou Qing's voice gradually faded away and was replaced by a wave of screams and sounds of killing. When all the sounds stopped, Chu Nanfeng knew that the matter was over.
"Wuyi, everything is fine. Those people have been…"
However, Que Wuyi, who was in his arms, did not say a word.
Chu Nanfeng quickly lowered his head to take a look and realized that Que Wuyi had already fainted. There was still an arrow stuck in his shoulder, and his adorable little face was completely devoid of blood.
Chu Nanfeng could not help but turn pale with fright." Wuyi, Wuyi!”#
