◎I can’t wait any longer◎
【He is Pei Zhou. 】
As the system's silent electronic sound rang in her mind, Hua Mei's expression froze.
She stared at the hunchbacked old man without blinking. After a moment of indifference, she uttered two words with trembling lips: "Pei, Pei Lang?"
Anjiu: “Wow…”
What a big melon.
The Pei Lang that Hua Mei called should be, as expected, Pei Zhou, the father of Pei Ji who had died ten years ago in the original novel.
An Jiu felt that her voice was very soft, but she didn't know if it was her illusion. When she cried out in shock, the young man in white with his back to her seemed to inadvertently turn his face towards her.
An Jiu quickly covered his mouth and held his breath.
Fortunately, he didn't turn around to look at her.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the old man and Hua Mei, and they became the focus of everyone.
The old man said, “It’s me.”
His tone was extremely calm, as calm as his eyes which were like a pool of dead water. Even though he was under the attention of countless people, he seemed not to feel it at all.
Pei Zhou's answer was like a thunderclap from the sky. An Jiu heard a slight commotion coming from the hall.
Medicine King Pei Zhou is no unknown person. Even though he has been gone for ten years, he is still well-known in the martial arts world.
No one expected that he was not dead and appeared here!
An Jiu didn't think about why the plot had deviated to this point. She was full of gossip. Not many people knew about the bloody incident between Hua Mei and Pei Zhou, but she knew it clearly.
She was curious about what Pei Zhou would do.
Is he coming out to help Pei Ji?
Does he still have his own son in his heart?
As soon as this thought came to An Jiu's mind, Hua Mei's loud voice suddenly shook her away.
"No, you are not, you are not Pei Lang, my Pei Lang is there!"
Hua Mei shook her head violently, and shifted her gaze to Pei Ji without hesitation, pointing at him and shouting.
An Jiu: Grass.
This woman changes her expression so quickly! She is definitely obsessed with looks!
"Son, go and catch him for me. I want him to stay and marry me!" Hua Mei's voice was sharp and piercing.
Judging from her appearance and expression, she looked like an old witch who coveted the tenderness of young men.
Hua Xuan did not move. He still stood beside Hua Mei, but his body did not move, as if he did not hear his mother's instructions.
The narrow black eyes behind the evil ghost mask narrowed and looked at Pei Zhou inquiringly.
He is not that brainless crazy woman. Pei Zhou has been missing for ten years and suddenly reappears in such an occasion. No one would believe him if he said he came just to reminisce about the past.
Even though he looks like an ordinary old man now, Hua Xuan will not be careless.
"Son, why didn't you listen to me! That's not your father. Don't be fooled by him. Your father died a long time ago!"
Hua Mei was extremely anxious, her facial features became ferocious, and she showed signs of going crazy.
Hua Xuan didn't want to provoke her, so he smiled slowly and said, "Mother, it's not that I won't help you, it's that Doctor Pei is poisoned, how dare I get close to him?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Mei immediately handed the red gauze in her hand to Hua Xuan and said, "Take this and you will be fine."
That is not ordinary red gauze. Every strand of yarn is soaked in poison and then woven into this red silk scarf through special means. It contains countless kinds of poisons and antidotes that are hard to find in the world.
This was also Hua Mei's former weapon.
She used to wear a red veil on her body every day. If anyone dared to disrespect her, even if they did not salute her on the street, she would kill them at will.
Because her poison skills were so advanced, she could kill people silently without having to get close to the attacker. At that time, the demon cult even spread terrifying rumors that the saint was a demon who could kill people with just a glance.
After Hua Mei went crazy, her red veil was covered in dust and no one dared to touch it.
Hua Qing didn't dare to do so either. Since she didn't know how to detoxify, she wouldn't seek death.
After Hua Mei woke up, the red gauze returned to her hands again.
Even Hua Xuan would not easily approach her and would deliberately keep a distance from her.
Holding the red gauze, Hua Xuan couldn't help but smile.
He wrapped the red gauze around his wrist, moved his sleeves, and a pitch-black scimitar came out. The blade flashed with a cold light, and the strong and domineering sword energy instantly swept through the entire hall.
An Jiu was not in the hall, but standing outside. He also felt a chill climbing up his spine along his tailbone.
The next second, Hua Xuan's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. His lightness skill was so outstanding that he almost turned into a residual image and attacked the father and son of Yaowang Valley who were standing at the entrance of the hall.
These two people are also his nominal father and brother.
Hua Xuan's speed did not slow down at all. The corners of his narrow eyes curved, and a hint of excitement and bloodthirstiness flashed in his eyes.
This is fun.
"Pei Ji, be careful!"
"Brother Pei, I'm here to help you!"
At the same time, two shouts were heard from the hall, followed by a shadow leaping up and rushing towards the hall door.
The person who pounced on him was He Ziqing!
The two were originally poisoned, but Lin Qingyan had the detoxification pill that Pei Ji had given her earlier, which could cure all poisons and was extremely precious. She only had one pill. Lin Qingyan gave it to He Ziqing, intending to pretend to be poisoned and find an opportunity to attack him by surprise.
Seeing this scene, how could He Ziqing sit still? He jumped out immediately and prepared to rescue Pei Ji.
"Ah..." Another sigh slowly sounded in everyone's ears.
An Jiu's attention was attracted again.
Only one person has ever let out such a heavy sigh, as if he was carrying a weight that was almost crushing him.
The old man who had just admitted that he was Medicine King Pei Zhou lowered his head again. From his back, he looked like a completely frustrated man.
However, at this moment, a misty fog suddenly emerged from the body of this frustrated man.
It's like the sweat that evaporates after people do strenuous exercise. As soon as the mist comes out, it blends into the surrounding air and disappears into thin air - no, it's not thin air.
An Jiu smelled a fragrance, like the aroma of blooming flowers, very pleasant, but very faint, like an illusion.
When most people smell this almost illusory smell, their subconscious reaction is to take a deep breath and smell it again.
This is the body's instinct.
An Jiu did the same, and then the world was spinning in front of her eyes. When she came to her senses, she was lying on the ground. Except for her eyeballs, not a single hair on her body could move.
She caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye and saw Ah Qi beside her also fell down.
Then I heard two heavy sounds falling to the ground, coming from a distance. Without a doubt, it was the two people who pounced over.
The place where An Jiu fell was very coincidental, facing the main hall. Even with limited vision, one could see the figures of He Ziqing and Hua Xuan falling heavily to the ground like dumplings.
She rolled her eyes and saw Pei Ji's wheelchair rolled towards her, but it deviated a little and then stopped.
He was sitting, and she couldn't see that high enough to tell if he was drugged or not, but judging by his subconscious movements, he should be fine.
The next moment, Pei Zhou, who had only said two sentences since arriving here, spoke slowly again.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. They hid you and I couldn't find you. But it doesn't matter. I will wait. I won't believe it unless I see you die with my own eyes."
"Fortunately, I waited."
A sighing tone sounded, but there was not a trace of joy, only endless sadness.
"I'm here to see you, Hua Mei. Do you still remember A Yan?"
The footsteps moved in little by little and stopped at a place.
"I thought of many ways to kill you. I am not as good as you in using poison, but later I came up with an idea. I turned myself into a medicine man, and from then on I will be immune to all poisons and diseases. I myself am a poison."
"Don't worry, you won't die so soon. You haven't paid for everything that Yan suffered back then. How could I let you die so easily?"
The footsteps began again, accompanied by a shuffling sound.
Pei Zhou came out dragging something. He walked to the door and suddenly stopped. He said as if explaining to someone, "This poison will dissipate itself in half an hour. Pei Zhou is dead and will not get involved in your dispute. Please do as you please."
After saying that, he dragged the heavy object and slowly walked away.
From beginning to end, he did not say a word to his two sons, whether it was Pei Ji or Hua Xuan.
Just as he said, he came here just to find someone, and now that he has found him, it is time to leave.
An Jiu was speechless and could only communicate with the system in his mind.
"It seems that Pei Ji's father is not a normal person. He stayed in the Demon Sect for ten years just to wait for Hua Mei to come out? His perseverance is too strong."
【He is already a walking corpse.】
An Jiu also sighed; "Perhaps now, the only thing that keeps him alive is the motivation of revenge on Hua Mei."
So in the original novel, Hua Mei did not appear, and Pei Zhou did not appear either.
Thinking of this, An Jiu was startled: "Why did Hua Mei come out this time?"
System: [Perhaps it’s because of that magical secret book. ]
An Jiu was stunned for a moment, and after a while he said, "So this matter actually has something to do with me."
If it weren't for the changes she made in Golden Snake Villa, Hua Mei would not have recovered, and Pei Zhou might not have been able to get revenge until his death.
For a moment, An Jiu felt extremely complicated.
She has always controlled herself and not invested too much emotion in this world.
She would not deliberately make friends, nor did she want to leave any ties. Even though she had a lot of interactions with people like Jin Yanwan and Ming Yi, and even they were treated as friends, An Jiu still didn't take it to heart.
To her, it was a fictional world, just a book.
No matter how real the person in the book is, she will eventually leave.
Or if the mission fails in the end and she can't go back, her fate will probably not be good.
Therefore, An Jiu always viewed everything here as a bystander. Although she would change the plot a little within her ability, it was just a casual move.
She never thought about how noble she was, how kind she was, or how many good things she had done.
The changed plots or the fate of some people have nothing to do with her now, and will have nothing to do with her in the future. She will never think highly of herself or become complacent and claim herself to be a savior because of this.
But at this moment, An Jiu felt a sense of identity in his heart.
For the first time, An Jiu felt that some of the things he did in this world might still have some meaning.
An Jiu originally thought that he would have to lie on the ground for an hour, but he didn't expect that not long after Pei Zhou left, the wheelchair at the end of his sight rolled over.
Rolling in front of her, Pei Ji's voice sounded faintly: "Are you still awake?"
An Jiu couldn't speak, so he could only blink hard.
Pei Ji saw this scene and saw the girl's long eyelashes blinking rapidly like fluttering butterfly wings.
She leaned half of her face against the ground, with a speck of dust on her fair and tender cheek. Perhaps because she wanted to look at him, her eyelids kept rolling up.
He could have ignored her, but he thought of the girl's delicate temper. If he really ignored her and let her lie here for half an hour, she might get angry again when she got better.
"knew."
The young man in white responded, bent down, grabbed her arm, and pulled the girl who was lying on the ground up.
An Jiu only felt a flash before his eyes, and then his body fell into a broad embrace. His nostrils were filled with the familiar bitter smell of medicine, which gave him a strange sense of security.
She was currently sitting on Pei Ji's lap, with his arms around her waist, her head resting weakly on his shoulder, and in front of her was a warm profile.
Pei Ji lowered his head slightly and turned to look at her.
The two had never been so close before, except for that chaotic night in Wuyin Temple.
Suddenly, the young man in white paused at one place.
The girl's small earlobes, as pure white as jade, were hidden in her black hair. Under his gaze, they were gradually stained with a thin layer of red.
He narrowed his eyelashes, a trace of doubt emerging in his mind.
Why is she blushing?
Pei Ji didn't think too much about it because he had already seen the girl's glaring eyes.
She always had rich expressions, and whatever she meant would show on her face or in her bright, dark eyes.
Pei Ji could now easily understand the meaning of her eyes.
She looked downward, and Pei Ji immediately understood that she wanted him to wipe the dust off her face.
Pei Ji paused for a long time. Seeing that the girl's eyes were becoming more and more urgent and she was staring at him, he slowly raised one hand.
The young man had long, slender fingers with distinct joints. His fingertips were slightly cool as he gently touched the girl's fair face.
The moment I touched that soft skin, it felt like a tiny electric current passed through it, and my fingers trembled slightly for a moment.
Pei Ji noticed that the girl's ears had become even redder and were spreading downwards, even her neck was covered with a thin layer of blush.
At the same time, the girl glared at him fiercely.
What this look means is: Hurry up!
Pei Ji's fingertips paused slightly, then he increased the speed. In order to prevent the girl from becoming impatient, he simply covered her with his entire palm.
The man's palm was broad and dry, with a little roughness. He stroked the girl's cheek, wiping away the dirt bit by bit, revealing the girl's delicate and beautiful face again.
I don’t know if it was because he used too much force or the girl’s skin was too delicate, but after applying it, the girl’s cheeks turned red.
Seeing this scene, Pei Ji's eyes flashed.
But soon, he put aside the strange feeling in his heart because An Jiu was glaring at him again.
This time she was ordering him around, asking him to detoxify her.
Pei Ji said: "This is not a simple poison, I can't solve it."
After receiving this answer, the girl rolled her eyes and gave him a glaring look.
Even if she didn't say it, Pei Ji miraculously understood what she wanted to say at this moment: You are so useless.
Pei Ji: “…”
An inexplicable feeling of suffocation arose in my heart, making me irritable.
The young man in white pursed his lips, lowered his eyes calmly, and curled his fingertips slightly in his sleeves.
He had been rejected by her many times, but he seemed unable to calm down every time.
This time the feeling of boredom was particularly strong.
It was because Pei Ji knew very well that after meeting him today, he was indeed inferior to Pei Zhou, his nominal father.
Although he did not regard Pei Zhou as his father, perhaps because he had been called Young Valley Master and Little Miracle Doctor since he was a child, Pei Ji had a strange concern for Pei Zhou and a strong desire to win.
He would rather be called Dr. Pei rather than Dr. Pei the Little Doctor.
He didn't want to live in that man's shadow forever.
This was actually the original intention of Pei Ji to establish the Thousand Killing Pavilion. That was his own unique power, and he never thought that he was worse than Pei Zhou.
Pei Ji was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk.
But he was not a talkative person, and the talkative person was forced to shut up, and the air fell silent for a while.
An Jiu leaned on him bored. The sun was so warm that she felt a little drowsy.
In the comfortable drowsiness, An Jiu seemed to have forgotten something.
She worked her lazy brain, but couldn't remember what she had forgotten. She thought for a while and then stopped thinking about it.
Time passed by little by little, and An Jiu didn't know how much time had passed. Suddenly, she felt her motionless body gradually regain consciousness, starting from her fingers, as if the blood was circulating again.
An Jiu opened his eyes quickly, but before he could feel happy, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark figure.
All of a sudden, she remembered what she had forgotten!
Hua Xuan!
Hua Xuan is still alive and well!
Pei Zhou only took Hua Mei away, but left behind Hua Xuan, who is also a powerful weapon.
Hua Xuan was a warrior and recovered faster than An Jiu. The moment An Jiu opened his eyes, he had already quickly approached the two of them. The inky black knife in his hand was like a black sea of flaming flames, rushing straight towards the two of them.
An Jiu's eyes widened, and he turned over almost reflexively, threw himself on Pei Ji, and hugged him tightly.
The black light did not fall on her. Just when it was very close to the two of them, the black light was blocked by a sword light and was firmly stopped in mid-air.
"Devil, your opponent is me!" He Ziqing, who arrived later, shouted.
At the same time, Ah Qi also turned over and pounced towards Hua Xuan.
Until this moment, An Jiu still feels scared.
Her heart was pounding so hard that it almost jumped out of her throat.
A muffled voice came from the chest with difficulty: "What are you...doing!"
An Jiu was stunned for a while. Feeling the push on her waist, she slowly stepped back, lowered her head, and released the head that was pressing on her chest.
The young man in white raised his head from the soft suffocation, and his handsome face like white jade turned red.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m holding it in or what.
He didn't see anything just now, but the girl in his arms suddenly stood up, hugged his head tightly, and pressed him into her chest. He was almost suffocated by the soft waves.
After finally escaping from the predicament, Pei Ji pushed the wheelchair backwards.
The girl's action was so sudden that he didn't even notice the sound of swords behind him.
His mind was in a mess. All he could think about was the extreme softness, the strange fragrance of the girl, and the thumping heart in her chest.
Pei Ji was very familiar with her scent. Every time he got close to her, he could smell it.
But this time it was particularly strong, filling the air with her scent.
“You just…”
"I didn't do anything just now!" the girl suddenly shouted, and immediately turned away when he looked over.
Pei Ji's throat rolled, and he wanted to ask her why she did that.
But after opening and closing his lips several times, he didn't ask anything.
His sight wandered and touched the girl's blood-red ears as she had her back to him. The young man in white turned his head away as if he had been electrocuted.
There was clearly no one around, but the two of them didn't even look at each other.
"ah!"
Pei Ji suddenly turned his head when he heard a girl's scream.
However, the girl who was originally standing there had fallen into the hands of a man. The man was wearing a yellow shirt, had a wretched face and lustful eyes, and was looking the girl up and down.
"Hey, there's a little beauty here~"
From the man's clothes, the flute hanging around his waist, and his face, Pei Ji had already recognized him as Ju, one of the four Dharma protectors of the Demon Cult, an old lecher who practiced the art of taking yin to replenish yang.
Looking again, he saw that the hall had been surrounded by many people, who all seemed to be members of the Demonic Cult.
All the martial arts masters from the Central Plains were lying on the ground at this moment, and the only two who could fight were He Ziqing and Ah Qi.
The two of them were fighting with Hua Xuan. Hua Xuan's magic skills were quite extraordinary, and he could fight them to a draw. They obviously had no time to take care of this side.
If he wants to save An Jiu, he now has only two choices.
Either he would detoxify the martial arts masters in the hall, which would be a bit slower. Or he would reveal that he practiced martial arts and do it himself.
"Pei Ji, save me!"
The girl in red was held in the man's arms, the redness on her face faded, and she looked pale with fear.
There were faint tears in her dark eyes, and she looked eagerly at the young man in white in the wheelchair.
The guardian chrysanthemum looked back and forth between the two of them, revealing an interested smile: "Oh, it's still for lovers. My little beauty, your flower protector is a cripple, how do you want him to save you?"
After these words were spoken, the girl's face turned even paler, and she obviously realized this.
The guardian Ju said, "I am a man who cherishes women and I cannot bear to see you two separated. Why don't you both follow me?"
"Lao Ju, the leader said that this guy can use poison. Don't get too close to him, or you might get into trouble." A charming and beautiful woman in the distance said with a smile.
The reason why the Protector Ju is named Ju is that he accepts everyone, regardless of gender. If he were not practicing that martial art, he would usually prefer beautiful young men with exquisite looks. That is why he is named Protector Ju.
Ju Hufa said regretfully: "This is a bit of a pity..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw a flash of fine silver light before his eyes. The light was very thin and very fast, almost invisible to the naked eye. By the time he reacted, the silver light had flown to his face, pointing directly at his eyebrows.
Behind the silver light, a young man in snow-white clothes flew up. Between his ten slender fingers were a row of silver needles as thin as hair.
His eyebrows and eyes, which used to be soft and gentle, were now as cold as ice, and in Pei Ji's ink-black eyes, there was only an extremely cold murderous intent.
In the blink of an eye, countless silver lights scattered out, carrying with them a strong airflow, like a violent storm that came in an instant.
He couldn't wait any longer.
The author has something to say:
What hidden identity, what plan, what domination of the martial arts world, does not exist.
