◎How dare she betray him? !◎
Fei Chen was a man of his words, and he released them all that day. When they walked out of the ordination hall, Pei Ji and Ah Qi looked at An Jiu with particularly strange eyes.
An Jiu could imagine their mental activities at the moment, and expressed it with an emoticon: [Tell me quickly, what kind of py deal do you have with him? ]
Otherwise, why were they released after going out to see Feichen once?
There must be some unspeakable secret involved.
Ah Qi was straightforward. Before he even left the door, he started yelling, "Miss An, what did you say to that bald donkey? Why did he let us go?"
Before An Jiu could speak, Fei Chen beside him said, "It has nothing to do with Miss An. We found new clues. Now the truth is clear. It was my fault the other day. I apologize to you all."
Perhaps he felt that he had wronged someone, Fei Cheng did not mind being called a bald donkey, and spoke in an especially humble tone.
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were spoken, the master and servant both turned their attention to An Jiu.
How could they be unrelated! As soon as An Jiu went out, he found out the truth. How could it be such a coincidence?
Compared to Ah Qi's confusion, Pei Ji was quite calm and composed. His slightly pale face had a warm and gentle smile. He said in a gentle voice, "It happened for a reason. We won't care about such a small matter."
After a slight pause, he asked curiously, "I just don't know who the real murderer is? From what the master said just now, it seems that the murderer has been found. I wonder if he can give us a clear name?"
Fei Chen nodded and said, "Of course, we have confirmed that the intruder that night was from the Thousand Killing Pavilion and had nothing to do with you guys."
"Qiansha Pavilion? How did you know about it?" Ah Qi asked hurriedly.
Fei Chen glanced at Ah Qi and said calmly, "This matter is confidential and should not be disclosed. I'm sorry Fei Chen cannot tell you."
"I guess Miss An said something to you..." The young man in white smiled gently, his narrow eyes turned, and his eyes lightly shrouded An Jiu.
Although his expression remained unchanged, his hands were clenched into fists under his sleeves, with his fingertips almost digging into the flesh.
Pei Ji is such a smart man that even if Fei Chen said nothing, he was able to come up with an amazing guess from those few words.
——An Jiu betrayed him!
No, to be more precise, it was Anjiu who betrayed Feiyi.
She must have informed Feichen about Feiyi's existence, and pinned the theft of the Bodhi seeds on Feiyi, so that Feichen would shift his target and suspect the Thousand Killing Pavilion.
Although it was indeed the Thousand Killing Pavilion that did nothing wrong and they were not afraid of the Wuyin Temple's investigation, this still made Pei Ji extremely shocked and angry, and he could not control himself.
How dare she?
How dare she betray him!
Where does she get the courage?
Pei Ji soon realized where An Jiu got the courage from.
When they were going down the mountain, Fei Chen actually followed them!
When asked the reason, Fei Chen said that he had misunderstood them, and as an apology, he would escort them all the way until they met He Ziqing.
The young man in white's eyes moved slightly and fell on the face of the girl in red who couldn't stop jumping for joy. At this moment, the girl was looking up at Feichen, her delicate little face full of joy.
Well, he asked her how she could be so bold that she wasn't afraid of "Fei Yi" coming to cause trouble for her.
It turns out that he has found a backer.
This morning, she might have said and done something to Feichen, otherwise how could she have made that stubborn monk come down the mountain for her and protect her?
The more he thought about it, the hotter the rage in his heart became, burning Pei Ji's internal organs and making his finger bones turn white from the exertion.
If he didn't need to pretend, if Fei Chen wasn't there, he would definitely grab her neck and ask her why she dared to betray him.
But An Jiu's sudden move really caught him off guard.
Fei Chen is a first-rate master, and now that he is with them, Pei Ji cannot act rashly for the time being.
"Sir, we should go now."
There was a faint voice behind me, it was Ah Qi urging me.
The Bodhi seed has been taken back to Thousand Killings Pavilion. If Pei Ji wants to absorb the internal power from it, he must leave this place.
His best choice at this time was to part ways with them.
Take the opportunity to escape from Feichen's sight, and after absorbing the internal force in the Bodhi seed, find a chance to come back.
Their original plan was the same, to return to the Thousand Killing Pavilion after descending the mountain. Now that Feichen has turned his target to the Thousand Killing Pavilion, they should return earlier and absorb the Bodhi seeds.
The man's dark pupils were extremely gloomy, staring fixedly at the girl and the monk who were walking side by side in front of him.
The girl's red dress fluttered in the wind and her figure was slender; the monk's back was straight and his golden-red robes sparkled in the sun.
It was clearly an ordinary picture, but in Pei Ji's eyes, it was like a needle piercing his eyeball, extremely glaring.
He suddenly closed his eyes, and when Ah Qi urged him again, he said coldly, "Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for? We'll be down the mountain soon." Ah Qi asked in confusion.
What are you waiting for?
He also wanted to know what he was waiting for.
"Ah!" A delicate cry suddenly came from the front. Pei Ji opened his eyes subconsciously and saw the monk supporting the staggering girl with a look of concern.
"Miss An, the road here is slippery, be careful."
The first reaction of the girl in the red dress who was supported was not to say thank you, but to unconsciously turn her head and look behind her.
This glance happened to meet the deep eyes of the young man in white. Judging from his expression, he must have been looking at her for a long time.
The girl was stunned for a moment, then she looked away as if she had been electrocuted.
Her ears turned slightly red, probably because she was shy. She quickly withdrew her arms and stood firm, and said to Feichen in a low voice: "Thank you, Master."
Fei Chen still had a cold expression on his face, seemingly unaware of the little girl's worries: "You're welcome."
Pei Ji could never guess what An Jiu was thinking. He felt that the eldest lady's mind was hard to predict and her mood was changeable.
At this moment, from the perspective of an observer, he felt as if the cloth covering his eyes was suddenly pulled away, and he heard and saw more clearly than ever before.
The woman's ears turned red, and it was obvious that she was extremely happy.
Even though she withdrew her hand so quickly, perhaps she slipped on purpose just to get in touch with that bald donkey.
He knew An Jiu too well. When she was in love with Fei Yi, didn't she seduce and tempt him in every way?
His eyes were fixed on the girl's blushing ears in the sunlight. Pei Ji exerted force with his fingertips, and the white jade fan bone in his palm cracked without him noticing.
A slight clicking sound penetrated his eardrum, and Pei Ji suddenly came back to his senses.
It was like a basin of cold water poured on my head, and the boiling thoughts in my mind suddenly cooled down.
Why should he care who she likes?
This fickle, promiscuous woman isn't worthy of his attention at all, right?
Thinking of this, Pei Ji closed his eyes and never looked at the two people again.
Not long after, several people went down the mountain.
Ah Qi looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and it was obvious that his master was sitting there with a grim expression. In the end, he swallowed his words back and said nothing.
After leaving the mountain gate, the group went to a nearby town and waited for a reply from He Ziqing and the other man.
People in the martial arts world all have their own channels for sending messages, such as the owls of Qiansha Pavilion and the carrier pigeons of Zhujian Villa.
An Jiu soon received news from Lin Qingyan and learned that they were currently in Wuyi Mountain, not far away.
He Ziqing has not found the person he is looking for. It is said that the person is deep in the mountains. The two of them have been searching for the person in the mountains recently, but no clues have been found yet.
If nothing else, Anjiu can wait for them in this town.
"They are still in the mountains. Let's wait for them outside..."
As soon as An Jiu finished speaking, a faint male voice came from the side: "Sorry, Pei is not feeling well and plans to return to Medicine King Valley to recuperate for some time. I'm afraid I can't accompany you two."
An Jiu turned his head and saw that the young man in white had a pale face and a gloomy look in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Seeing her looking over, he raised his hand to his lips, coughed lightly twice, and raised his eyelids weakly.
An Jiu seemed to be a little slow to react, and said hesitantly: "You, you want to go back to Medicine King Valley? Aren't you going to wait for Brother He and Lin Qingyan?"
Pei Ji said slowly, "I didn't do anything along the way. Qingyan has Brother He to accompany her, so she doesn't need me. And I am just a useless person. In order not to drag you down, it is better for me to return to Medicine King Valley."
"But Brother He asked you to take care of me, how could you just leave like this?"
Hearing what he said, the girl in the red dress raised her slender eyebrows slowly, and said in a very dissatisfied tone, "Besides, who said you are a burden! Is there someone talking nonsense in front of you?"
Pei Ji looked at her deeply, pulled up the corners of his lips, and the smile in his eyes was not as bright as his eyes: "Now that Miss An is protected by the Buddha, I can rest assured. As for who said it... Miss An doesn't know?"
When he asked this, the girl suddenly realized that it seemed that she was the one who always looked down on him for being a useless person.
Her expression changed, her face turned pale, she couldn't help biting her lip, and said weakly: "Pei Ji, don't take what I said before to heart, I don't, I don't dislike you, don't leave, let's wait for Brother He and the others together..."
An Jiu walked up to him, bent down in front of the wheelchair, pulled his sleeve and shook him gently.
An Jiu often did this kind of trick to Pei Ji, and he was used to it. In the past, he would always be annoyed and irritable, and couldn't help but agree to her various strange requests.
Now, he would no longer obey her.
Her long eyelashes drooped down, and a layer of cold frost condensed in her narrow, ink-black eyes.
The smile on his lips remained, but there was no warmth in it: "Miss An, since you are so reluctant to leave me, why don't you go to Medicine King Valley with me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the white fingertips that were grabbing the snow-white sleeve suddenly let go.
The girl glanced around in panic, as if she was afraid that someone would hear what she said.
But before Pei Ji noticed, she quickly restrained her expression, stood up and took two steps back, as if to distance herself from him, and raised her voice and said crisply: "I, I am not reluctant to part with you, you, you should stop being so sentimental, okay!"
After saying that, she ran away and came to Feichen who was not far away. She said loudly as if she was talking to someone, "I don't want to go to Medicine King Valley. I want to find Brother He. You can go back by yourself! Master Feichen, can you take me to find Brother He and the others?"
Fei Chen glanced at Pei Ji, then at An Jiu. He didn't know whether he didn't care about An Jiu's choice or had known about it for a long time, and there was no surprise on his face.
He nodded calmly and said, "If you want, then of course you can."
Pei Ji's lips, which were habitually curved, were pursed into a straight line.
He was actually not surprised that An Jiu would do this.
The reason she wanted to keep him was just because she wanted someone to serve her. How could she be reluctant to let him go?
He knew his place in her heart better than anyone else.
It was ridiculous that he actually thought she was willing to go with him and couldn't help asking that stupid question.
My heart felt like it was stabbed by a needle, causing a sharp pain.
He lowered his eyes silently, and gently pressed his slender fingertips on his chest. His already pale face became even paler and more transparent, and his dark eyebrows and eyes became even more clear and elegant, as if painted in ink.
The onset of the poison had long passed, so why... was he still feeling pain?
Fortunately, the pain was like a dream, and disappeared in an instant. Pei Ji was a skilled doctor, but he could not trace the source.
He put his hand down with a dull look, turned his head and said to Ah Qi: "Let's go, let's go back."
On the side of the street, An Jiu and Fei Chen stood together, watching the master and servant get into the carriage and drive away.
Fei Chen said: "Don't worry, Donyue. I will find Xian Wuming's whereabouts and bring him to justice. He will not threaten you anymore."
An Jiu looked into the distance for a long time without looking away.
She raised her lips lightly and said, "I hope so."
