Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 136 Canglan Ferry (6)

Qinglang said thoughtfully, "So, it turns out that this Young Master Pei has ulterior motives towards you—Ali, this person is no good. I'll go tell Master right now, and have Junior Brother take care of him from now on. Don't associate with him, lest you be deceived by him."

After Qinglang finished speaking, she turned around and went to find Chu Yuanhua.

Yan Zhen pulled her back: "Senior sister, there's no need for that. To me, Young Master Pei is just a patient. I have no feelings for him. No matter how much he tries to be nice to me, I'll pretend I don't see it. If you tell Master, all the fellow disciples will develop a grudge against Young Master Pei. How will he face others in Canglan Valley after that? It will not be good for his recovery."

Doctors have the hearts of parents, and the simple-minded Qinglang indeed hesitated.

"Senior sister, don't worry. I'm not the kind of person who can be fooled by a few words. You've reminded me. Now that I know what Young Master Pei is thinking, I'll be more careful in the future."

After much persuasion, Qinglang finally felt relieved and left with the food basket.

Although Yan Zhen did not intend to act out a scene with Pei Wangzhou in her previous life, where they were mutually attracted and she abandoned everything to leave the valley with him, she could not leave him now.

Firstly, she couldn't entrust the care of Pei Wangzhou to someone else.

Secondly, after killing Pei Wangzhou, she planned to find a reason to leave the valley and go to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.

Yan Jinhe, another enemy of the original owner, is still in the capital. She will take Pei Wangzhou's token and claim that she is pregnant with Pei Wangzhou's posthumous child, using this opportunity to enter the Duke of Dingguo's mansion and stir up trouble.

But before that, the question is how to kill Pei Wangzhou quietly.

After all, if someone who was perfectly healthy suddenly dies, the other fellow disciples are easy to fool, but Chu Yuanhua will definitely be suspicious.

Yan Zhen pondered giving Pei Wangzhou a different kind of slow-acting poison, a drug that would make him increasingly lethargic day by day, exhibiting symptoms similar to depression.

If Chu Yuanhua asks, tell him that Pei Wangzhou was depressed and died from an illness that he couldn't be cured.

Having made up his mind, Yan Zhen went up the mountain to collect herbs the next day.

This herb grows in streams. Yan Zhen climbed the mountain for half a day and unknowingly arrived at the place where he had discovered Pei Wangzhou that day.

After finding the herbs, she sat down by the waterfall. Just as she took out the lunch bag her senior sister had prepared for her to eat lunch, she keenly sensed that there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching her.

Yan Zhen has a strong sixth sense for danger. Sensing that the owner of that gaze was up to no good, she immediately became alert—an outsider had entered the valley.

Could it be that they've come to rescue Pei Wangzhou?

Upon realizing this, Yan Zhen immediately got up, intending to take a detour to shake off the other party and return to Biyue Residence as soon as possible.

She couldn't let the Pei family rescue Pei Wangzhou.

But as soon as she made a move, the hum of a sharp blade suddenly came from behind her, and the next moment, a long sword gleaming with cold light was pressed against her neck from behind: "Don't move."

Yan Zhen: "..."

The newcomer was a man, and judging from his moves, his martial arts skills were far superior to hers.

Yan Zhen wisely raised his hands in surrender: "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer her question. Instead, he asked, "Was there a man surnamed Pei here a few months ago?"

Yan Zhen's heart skipped a beat; they were indeed after Pei Wangzhou.

She hesitated for two seconds between telling the truth and lying.

In those two seconds of hesitation, her opponent noticed something amiss, applied a little force, and the blade immediately sliced ​​through her skin, sending a stinging sensation through her.

"Be honest! Answer me, yes or no!"

Yan Zhen immediately admitted obediently, "Yes."

Regardless, saving my life is the priority.

"He's still alive?"

"Correct."

"Where are you now?"

"my home."

"Take me to him."

“This… I’m afraid that won’t work.” Yan Zhen pointed to the sword pressed against his neck and tentatively said, “I have many fellow disciples. If they find out that you injured me, they will definitely come after you and your young master. At that time, I’m afraid neither of you will be able to leave Canglan Valley.”

Upon hearing this, the person behind him let out a cold snort: "Who told you I'm Pei Wangzhou's servant?"

Yan Zhen paused in surprise.

"If he's not a servant, then he's an enemy."

Apart from these two factors, no one would go through all the trouble to come to Canglan Valley to find Pei Wangzhou.

The man ignored her words and shoved her, saying, "Stop talking nonsense! Take me to him right now!"

Yan Zhen stumbled as she was pushed, and taking advantage of the forward lean, she pulled out a packet of powder from her pocket, held her breath, and quickly turned around to throw it in front of the man.

In that instant she turned around, she noticed that the man was wearing a black ghost face mask.

A pungent smell mingled with the medicinal powder in the air. Upon seeing this, the man immediately covered his mask and took a few steps back.

late!

The next moment, he started sneezing violently.

This is a self-defense weapon that Yan Zhen made out of poisonous plants when he had nothing else to do.

It is harmless to the human body, but it will make people sneeze constantly.

When a person sneezes, they can't do anything, so Yan Zhen took the opportunity to run away.

But she had only run a few steps when the person behind her caught up, stretched out a long arm, and grabbed her by the collar of her neck.

Yan Zhen was pulled backward and fell, her back hitting the other person's hard chest. Before she could struggle, the person suddenly covered her nose with their sleeve.

The pungent smell of the medicine powder choked her nostrils, and Yan Zhen knew something was wrong. As soon as the person let go, she started sneezing uncontrollably.

mean!!!

For a moment, the two of them sneezed louder and louder, as if in a competition, facing each other.

"Antidote... Achoo... the antidote!"

"no!"

"I don't believe you... Achoo... Give me the antidote, or else... Achoo... I'll kill you!"

As the man spoke, he raised his sword at her.

Yan Zhen originally intended to hold out with him for a while, but soon she couldn't stand it anymore.

She sneezed so hard that her nasal cavity felt burning, itchy, and painful, so she quickly ran to the stream and scooped up water to splash on her face.

The sneezing symptoms were greatly relieved immediately upon contact with water.

Seeing this, the man followed suit and ran to the stream, took off his mask, and began to wash his face.

After washing her face, Yan Zhen turned to look at the man, and when she saw his face clearly, she was stunned.

It was a face that bore a striking resemblance to Pei Wangzhou's; at first glance, the two looked like twin brothers.

She looked the man up and down; not only his face, but also his build and height were very similar to Pei Wangzhou's.

Could they really be Pei Wangzhou's twin brothers?

The man stopped sneezing, noticed Yan Zhen's gaze, narrowed his eyes, turned to the side and swiftly grabbed Yan Zhen's neck, dragging her in front of him: "Look again, and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

Yan Zhen was silent for two seconds, then his nose itched and he sneezed loudly.

He sprayed saliva all over the face of the man who was standing right next to him.

"..."

"..."

The air seemed to freeze.

The man's face was terribly pale. Yan Zhen was worried that he might snap his neck in anger, so she immediately fawned over him and used her sleeve to wipe his face: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'll wipe it clean for you now... wipe it clean!"
