"You killed him-?"

A high-pitched female voice screamed with suppressed anger. Chen Baiqi regained consciousness from the darkness, but he was in a daze. Only his hearing could contact the outside world, as if he was vaguely waking up from another sphere through a transparent film.

Come, I heard the conversation between a man and a woman not very far away.

As if to hide something, the man deliberately lowered his voice and said coldly: "This kid ruined what we arranged, why can't we kill him?"

The woman gritted her teeth and said, "You act so impulsively. You know that if you accidentally reveal your identity as a slave, you will ruin the master's important event!"

The man's throat paused for a moment before he sneered: "But if you kill a lame Confucian scholar, what will happen? It will make such a big fuss!"

"Don't you see what happened today? This Confucian scholar dares to take charge in public, and he speaks well and has an extraordinary appearance. I'm afraid he has a close relationship with the Yuelu Mountain Chief! If anything happens to him, the Yuelu Mountain Chief can use his power to raise suspicion and investigate...

"

The man's expression changed, he narrowed his eyes, glanced at the injured and fainted position of Chen Baiqi, and said: "What are you doing now? Should I report it to Master Lang for disposal...or let him go?"

The woman pondered for a while and then made a decision: "That's it, that's it. He's been so seriously injured. It's probably not good for him to keep it. Let's just let it go. Anyway, there's no one at night, and there's no sand here."

There are also a lot of thieves, so I guess they won’t suspect us for a while.”

The man nodded: "Well, that's it."

Seeing that the man was willing to listen to her, the woman's angry look faded a lot. She remembered the serious matter she had invited him to discuss, and said: "I originally thought that Mr. Mengchang had taken the bait, so he would let down his guard and fall into our trap."

, but I didn’t expect that he would let Yuelu Academy get involved in Fenhai County’s affairs, so we need to be more cautious in our next actions.”

The man said: "I have arranged the 'thugs' matter in advance. When the time comes, you and I will cooperate inside and outside, just waiting for the arrival of Lord Mengchang..." The man snorted and sneered: "If there is no Lord Mengchang in Qi State, it will be like an eagle without claws and without teeth."

There is nothing to be afraid of like a tiger."

The woman didn't wait for the man to finish, then cautiously interjected: "Don't be careless, you need to be careful in everything."

The two of them conspired together for a while. After the matter was explained and discussed, the man climbed over the low earth wall of the city wall and quickly disappeared in the dark night, while the woman stayed for a while.

She strolled towards the place where Chen Baiqi was injured and fell.

The woman's pair of deep and profound eyes stared silently at the handsome and pale young man lying in a pool of blood for a long time, then she slowly knelt down and gently touched his forehead with a small delicate hand...

.

It's cold there.

Like a dead person.

"rest in peace."

The woman's red lips opened and closed, and she uttered three words with pity and ruthlessness, then lowered her eyelashes, stood up and left. When she turned around, the soft and cold red cloud veil was like the wind, gently blowing over Chen Baiqi's face.

Pale, blue and bloody cheeks.

Not long after the woman walked away, a burst of bright light suddenly erupted on the spot. After the strong light, the male version of "Chen Huanxian" lying on the ground was suddenly replaced by the female version of "Chen Huanxian".

And Chen Baiqi finally opened his eyes.

The air in her chest seemed to be squeezed out, her nose and mouth were wide open, and she kept breathing, as if she was waking up from a dream.

After she breathed repeatedly, she regained some strength and slowly sat up with her limp and weak body. Her head was very heavy, as if there was a lead weight on top of her head. It was so heavy that she couldn't lift it up. She had a splitting headache that made it difficult for her to normalize.

As I was thinking, the corners of my eyes were blurry and sticky, and I felt my head was wet.

She thought her situation was probably very bad. She was seriously injured when someone plotted against her before.

She casually touched her hairline and saw blood on her hand without even looking.

"If I don't replenish some life potion, I'll probably lose all my blood..."

Thinking like this, Chen Baiqi cheered up. She didn't know how long she had been lying on the ground, but in this rainy and snowy weather, there was a lot of moisture on the ground. She was already soaked to the skin, shivering from the cold, and her hands and feet felt stiff and cold.

, the lips are blue and white and trembling.

Taking out 4 x "small life potions" from her inventory, she felt that she couldn't save any more, so she drank them all in one go. After finishing the fourth bottle, she felt a little able to move.

The man was very skilled. She was injured on the head and lost so much blood. She was lucky not to die suddenly.

No matter how much you save of this life-saving medicine that can provide immediate results, you can never have too much.

The wound still needs to be treated with medicine, but there is no bleeding. It is estimated that drinking these four bottles has temporarily scabbed the wound.

Chen Baiqi held her dizzy head and stood up reluctantly. She touched her chest and saw that it was bulging and soft, which meant that her body was too weak to resist the overbearing invasion of Qilin blood and she had regained her daughter's body.

Chen Bai raised her eyebrows, her eyes flashed coldly, thinking to herself that the secret of her male-to-female transformation must never be exposed. The man and woman who committed the crime before did not know whether they would suddenly return. She was too weak to bear it now, except

If you want to leave here as soon as possible, you have to change into the clothes of a Yuelu disciple.

If she didn't meet acquaintances later, they would see a strange sister-in-law wearing the clothes of a disciple of Yuelu Academy, and with this very similar face, she was afraid that it would be difficult to tell her apart.

Chen Baiqi opened the "Regional Map", which showed that the "Kuicheng Regional Map" was loading... Since the Kuicheng map was not large, it took less than a minute to load, and then her location was displayed on the map.

, the positions of her friends (Captain Peinan, Zhang Yi and Wei Xi) and the friendly green dots. The enemy red dots have disappeared, indicating that they are no longer nearby, while it shows that several friendly green dots are gradually moving towards her.

This direction is close.

She vaguely heard someone calling her name inside the city wall, but she didn't dare to respond. She first took off the blood-stained disciple's green shirt and threw it into the darkness. Then, like an old man with broken joints, she walked towards the city step by step.

He moved to the opposite position, throwing the shouts behind him further and further away.

She couldn't appear like this in front of Yuelu's disciples. Firstly, she might transform back into a man at any time. Secondly, she suddenly appeared outside Kuicheng covered in blood, which would easily arouse the suspicion of the enemies who harmed her, and it would be difficult to explain.

It’s not easy to be completely convinced either.

We have to wait until her injury is stable before making any plans.

She kept walking away like this, and in the end she didn't know how far she had walked. It wasn't until she couldn't see the friendly green dots on the regional map that she finally lost consciousness from exhaustion. Her legs went soft and she heard a "pop"

He fell to the ground and fainted.

Chen Baiqi thought... After the head injury, her face was probably also affected.

——

This time, she didn't know how long she had been in the dark. When Chen Baiqi woke up, she unexpectedly found that she was not lying on the cold and wet ground, but in a dry, soft, comfortable and warm place.

Moreover, the soft place where she was lying was still very fragrant. Chen Baiqi, who has been a woman for more than thirty years, was not unfamiliar with this kind of fragrance. It was the smell of powder on a woman's body.

She guessed that she might be lying in a woman's boudoir, but after thinking about it for a while, she felt that it was impossible. Kuicheng was surrounded by run-down villages and wilderness for several miles, so how could there be such a comfortable environment.

So when she opened her eyes, what she saw was a closed carriage. At that time, she was mentally shaken. She could hear the sound of cars outside the window, the sound of hooves, and there seemed to be conversations, clapping and laughter, and an uproar on the roadside.

However.

However, the strange thing is that the interior of the car is as quiet as a Buddhist temple and a sutra pavilion, a world of its own.

In the carriage, besides Chen Baiqi lying on a fragrant couch, there was also a woman sitting in a lotus position with her arms in the corner of the carriage. She was playing with a string of round black beads of unknown texture. When she saw Qi Ying's mouth, she closed her eyes.

No matter what sutra you are reciting, there is a different state of mind.

Or maybe she wasn't chanting sutras, she was just mumbling words but didn't make any sound.

"woke up?"

This woman's words are simple and cold, without any extraneous feeling, neither soft nor warm, but her voice is very beautiful.

She didn't open her eyes, but she immediately noticed that Chen Baiqi had woken up.

Chen Baiqi supported one arm and half raised his body, using the faint yellow light emitted from the carriage to look at the graceful and beautiful mature woman in front of him.

Her gaze is not aggressive in any way, on the contrary, it is a kind of ignorant curiosity and simple gaze, which will not arouse other people's disgust.

It's strange that the woman in front of me, who is only twenty-five or six, has completely opposite temperament and appearance.

Her temperament is like stagnant water, long and deep, but her appearance is like a blazing fire, rich and flamboyant.

"Sister, what were you reading just now?" Chen Baiqi twitched his pale lips and smiled weakly at her.

Chen Baiqi felt that he might have a low fever, his throat was dry, and his voice was hoarse and broken.

Ji Yan stopped moving the beads for a moment, closed his eyes, and his face with heavy makeup and dark pink seemed to smile.

The smile was very light, like the traces of wind passing through water, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, but it inexplicably made Chen Baiqi feel a familiar smell.

I seem to have seen such a smile somewhere.

"I thought my sister-in-law would first ask why she appeared here."

Of course she wanted to know, but asking directly like this seemed too passive.

Chen Baiqi swallowed hard, moistened his throat, and said, "You still don't know the name of your savior?"

Ji Yan finally opened his eyes. At that moment, Chen Baiqi saw the steaming sea and mulberry fields in this woman's eyes, so rich and full of content.

As if confirming something.

"Yuyuan Jiyan." She put the beads away, put her hands on the bottom, and bowed to Chen Baiqi.

Yuyuan?

Although Chen Baiqi was just a newcomer to Qi State and was not very familiar with the aristocratic circle of Qi State, he could still recognize the identity of this woman.

She didn't tell her her family name, but only her place of origin. She was just a lowly... sarcastic girl.

Chen Baiqi struggled to get up and wanted to help her up. Ji Yan had already seen her intention and got up first, took the water next to the pier and fed it to Chen Baiqi.

Chen Baiqi leaned on Ji Yan's arm, slowly swallowed a few mouthfuls, and then shook his head.
