Chapter Fifty p3
If Yun Lan Yi was still in the warning stage, then Yu Zhao on the side had already grasped the hilt of her sword, her dark eyes filled with coldness, obviously in a state of being angered, and could draw her sword at any time to defend Bo Chi’s reputation.
The atmosphere unknowingly became tense. The three girls stood together, clearly in opposition to Zhang Yan.
In the eyes of the onlookers, it gradually changed its meaning.
“What’s going on? Is that Pavilion Master Zhang? Didn’t you say that the medical immortal admires him? Why do I feel like he’s being ostracized by the medical immortal and the others?“
“Hiss, the Medicine Valley medical immortal’s methods are really something. Not only did she win the heart of her junior sister, but she even made Pavilion Master Zhang fall head over heels for her!“
“The most terrifying thing is that Pavilion Master Zhang and that junior sister might be future husband and wife. Now, they are actually turning against each other for a woman. This, this, this… Why does this sound familiar? Who mentioned it just now?“
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Medicine Valley is really messy.“
Bo Chi: “…”
The others: “…”
The Medicine Valley was only this big, no matter how softly they spoke, Bo Chi and the others could still hear clearly. After being tsked at for a long time, their faces darkened a bit, and they felt like monkeys. If they continued to talk, it would be like performing something strange for others to watch.
Thinking of this, the tense atmosphere began to ease. Zhang Yan opened his folding fan, exchanged a few insincere pleasantries, then turned and left, naturally going to chat with the first master.
As soon as he left, Yun Lan Yi immediately returned to her tearful expression, and hummed: “This person is really annoying, Sister Chi’er, don’t fall for him anymore. Instead of liking him, sister, why don’t you—“
Before she could finish speaking, a long sword was directly inserted between Bo Chi and her. The owner of the sword pushed her head to the side with great displeasure, and said coldly: “The martial arts competition has started, you should go back to where you should be.“
The angry Yun Lan Yi’s breath hitched, and she turned to look, only to find that the people around her had unknowingly shut up, all staring at the high platform.
Two people were already standing on the stage. They bowed to each other, politely introduced themselves, and then chose the former between fighting and competing in medical skills, and began to fight with their weapons.
A gloomy look flashed in Yun Lan Yi’s eyes, but there was nothing she could do. She could only say goodbye to Bo Chi with tears in her eyes, and left reluctantly.
“Your junior sister is not a good person.” Yu Zhao retracted her sword, took out a white handkerchief from her sleeve, and wiped the place where the sword had just touched Yun Lan Yi with an expressionless face: “I don’t like her, and I don’t like you being close to her.“
Bo Chi nodded: “I don’t like being clingy with others every day either. After the martial arts competition is over, we’ll leave the Medicine Valley and go somewhere else to stay temporarily.“
Yu Zhao felt much more at ease after hearing her words, and no longer continued to torture her sword, finally showing a smile: “Okay.”
The fight on the high platform was still going on, but the people had changed. The people below were probably all here to watch the fun, cheering and booing, creating a very lively atmosphere.
Bo Chi looked at them seriously, and was thinking about whether there were any hired actors among them, when Yu Zhao’s slightly cold voice sounded beside her ear: “Zhang Yan’s face doesn’t look good. He has already looked at you seven times in this short while. I think he really, as you said, no longer plans to gradually control the Medicine Valley by marrying Yun Lan Yi.“
Bo Chi came back to her senses and nodded: “That’s natural. Although Lan Yi is Second Master’s chief disciple, I am the medical immortal of the Medicine Valley. With me standing in front, he is destined to get nothing.“
Yu Zhao was stunned, raised her hand and gently stroked Bo Chi’s head, and said in a deep voice: “But this way, you have entered Zhang Yan’s eyes again. He might secretly send killers to assassinate you.“
Bo Chi’s eyes curved, she rubbed against her palm, and said with full trust: “I know, but don’t I have you by my side? With you here, I’m not afraid of ten Zhang Yans!“
Yu Zhao’s heart trembled slightly, she pursed her lips and calmed down for a while before saying softly: “I understand.“
Bo Chi was willing to entrust her life to her, so she would naturally do her best to protect the other party.
Even if it meant her own death, she would never let Zhang Yan hurt her!
Yu Zhao’s eyes were like sword light piercing through the fog, dispelling all confusion.
When Bo Chi withdrew her hand, she subconsciously tightened her grip, refusing to let go.
It wasn’t until a sound of ew came from around her that she reacted and looked up, only to find that Zhang Yan had already taken the stage, looking at them with a fake smile. The others followed his gaze, and should have been waiting for Bo Chi to take the stage, but… but they saw that she wouldn’t let go.
Yu Zhao’s expression froze, and she immediately let go of Bo Chi.
However, Bo Chi had already misunderstood her thoughts, her eyes sparkling, and she whispered: “Why are you jealous again? Don’t worry, I’m just putting on an act.“
Yu Zhao’s ears were burning, and she muttered: “Don’t talk nonsense, I’m not jealous.“
Bo Chi didn’t believe her nonsense, and hummed arrogantly: “Then should I go up and make it real?“
“Clang——“
Yu Zhao’s long sword was unsheathed a bit, and the sword was glowing with a chilling cold light, just like Yu Zhao’s cold tone at this time: “You can try.“
Bo Chi: “…”
Try… and die?
With such a jealous wife, Bo Chi didn’t dare to spread her wings on the edge of death.
She went on stage obediently, refined the medicine pill step by step, and when the two little white mice who dedicated themselves to medicine were brought up, she had already finished making the pill, while Zhang Yan was still frowning and putting herbs into the medicine stove.
Bo Chi glanced at him, casually crushed the medicine pill into powder, and sprinkled it on the dying white mice.
Before refining the pill, the first master didn’t tell them whether the medicine was for humans or animals, nor did she tell them what disease the patient had. Under such circumstances, what was being tested was their grasp of the ‘stability’ of the medicine pill.
After Bo Chi’s powder was sprinkled, the white mice’s external injuries immediately stopped bleeding, and after a short while, the wounds had actually scabbed over!
The crowd below erupted in an uproar, completely forgetting that this was the venue for the martial arts competition to recruit a husband, and began to ask Bo Chi to refine the pill and let them buy more for their own safety.
And the first master and the others were also surprised, and exclaimed: “Half a year has passed, and Chi’er’s medical skills have not regressed but improved. It seems that she has always remembered her identity as a medical immortal, and has not wasted her talent.“
Yun Lan Yi stared adoringly at Bo Chi on the stage, her voice gentle enough to squeeze out water: “Chi’er has always been intelligent, and it’s only natural for her to have such achievements. But this disciple still feels that senior sister shouldn’t travel outside. If she encounters vicious villains, or some people with bad intentions, what should she do?”
First Master: “…Just say Yu Zhao and Zhang Yan’s names directly.“
Yun Lan Yi smiled shyly: “Master understands, why say it out loud?“
The first master shook her head helplessly: “I understand, but I don’t think it’s best for your senior sister to stay in the valley all the time. She is a healer after all, and she should travel around, see more strange diseases, and thus improve her medical skills and cure stubborn illnesses.“
“You do have deep feelings for your senior sister, but you are not suitable.” The first master sighed: “You girl have too many hidden thoughts, always wanting to hold your treasure tightly in your hands, rather letting it gather dust than letting others touch it.“
“Such obsession will hurt both yourself and others.“
Yun Lan Yi had become silent at some point. After the first master finished speaking, she smiled and said: “Master herself regards the century-old elixir as more important than anything else, so why do you say that this disciple is paranoid? Besides, if I don’t make a move, those people…“
She turned her face slightly, glanced at Yu Zhao, who was staring intently at Bo Chi, and sneered sarcastically: “Those people won’t hesitate, I’m afraid they will immediately kidnap senior sister home.“
The first master also looked at Yu Zhao, and pondered: “Although this person is ruthless, full of killing intent, and her sword light is bloody, but… she is more suitable for Chi’er than you.“
Yun Lan Yi’s pretty face darkened: “Why does Master say that?“
The first master smiled, but didn’t answer. Instead, she walked onto the stage, raised her hand to suppress the enthusiastic words of the crowd below, and said: “Time’s up, the winner of this martial arts competition to recruit a husband is the medical immortal of our Medicine Valley, Bo Chi.”
Some people congratulated her below, and some wondered how two women could be together, but more were still persistently asking for medicine.
They were too enthusiastic, and Bo Chi had to hurriedly leave the stage and hide in her room for the whole afternoon, only breathing a sigh of relief when everyone left the Medicine Valley.
Dusk fell outside, and the sky was dotted with stars, a beautiful night scene, but not a good time to visit.
Bo Chi gave up the idea of talking to her wife, and instead wrote down the prescription from today on paper, preparing to give it to her masters when she left with Yu Zhao.
Halfway through writing the prescription, a knock suddenly came from outside the door.
Bo Chi was stunned, put down her brush in confusion, opened the door, and saw that it was Yun Lan Yi.
She was wearing a white robe, her pale hands clutching her collar, her eyes watery as she looked at Bo Chi.
“It’s already dark, what are you doing here?” Bo Chi asked casually as she stepped aside to let her in.
Yun Lan Yi didn’t say anything. When the door closed, she let go of her collar and threw herself into Bo Chi’s arms.
Bo Chi was startled, and instinctively put her hand on her back to protect her. However, when she touched her body, Bo Chi’s palm felt smooth and delicate.
Yun Lan Yi suddenly spoke, her voice seductive and alluring, with a charming chuckle: “Senior sister won the competition, you have to take responsibility for this junior sister…“
The author has something to say:
Bo Chi (flipping the table): That’s not what you said before the fight!
Yun Lan Yi (covering her mouth and smiling): Senior sister is so easy to deceive~
