Chapter 18 The Unexpected Harvest of the Experiment
Liang Xiaohua still led the way down the mountain. In the middle of the night, the group finally descended from Canglian Mountain and returned to the Liang family's cabin. First, they sent Liang Xiaohua home, and second, they also took a short rest.
Yu Qingfeng helped Liang Xiaohua to the bed, covered her with a quilt, and watched her fall asleep, feeling indescribably sour in her heart.
The rest of the people gathered around the stove, boiling water and keeping warm.
Yu Qingfeng sighed one after another and sat back next to Pei Wuyan.
"Liang Xiaohua is so pitiful. She is so lonely, and she is so stimulated that she goes crazy and loses consciousness. She is obsessed with finding the fox fairy and runs up the mountain every night. Continuing like this is not a long-term solution."
Pei Wuyan used his eyes to signal Yu Qingfeng to look in the direction of the kitchen. There were some chopped firewood piled next to the stove, a piece of pork hanging above the stove, and a dozen eggs in a bamboo basket.
"You mean, someone is taking care of Liang Xiaohua?"
Yu Qingfeng instantly understood what Pei Wuyan meant. With Liang Xiaohua's mental state, it should be impossible for her to go to the county market to buy ingredients by herself.
Pei Wuyan nodded, "Although many people still believe in the theory that the fox fairy destroyed the family, the official conclusion is that Liang Xiaohua is the daughter of the murderer Liang Lei after all. If you want to help Liang Xiaohua, you must act in secret."
"I know who it is." Mo Li suddenly spoke.
"Who?" Yu Qingfeng asked.
Mo Li pursed his lips, pointed at the stove, and twisted his body, "It's cold down the mountain. My hands are frozen. I want to warm myself by the fire. Untie me and let me warm my hands, and I'll tell you."
Indeed, except for Mo Li who was tied behind his back, everyone else was stretching their hands to warm themselves by the fire.
Pei Wuyan was an exception. Because his left hand was injured and still had a bandaged cloth bow, he only extended his right hand towards the stove.
No one said anything, but Lian Shurong took the lead in untying Mo Li. While untying the rope, he said, "It's okay. I'm here, let alone untying her two arms. Even if she has three heads and six arms, she can't even think about running away.
"
The corners of Li Li's mouth twitched and he glared at Lian Shurong who was untying her, "Be careful!"
"What are you careful about?" Lian Shurong was confused and had already untied the rope as he spoke.
Li Qiye patted the sleeve touched by Lian Shurong in disgust and stretched out his hands to keep warm.
"There was a butcher shop clerk in Qianying County named Zhang Hanzhong. Because Liang Lei had contacts with the butcher shop, he met the Liang family and his daughter. Zhang Hanzhong fell in love with Liang Xiaohua and proposed marriage to Liang Lei, but was rejected. Liang Lei
He said that he hopes his daughter will marry a scholar. The only person I can think of who is willing to take care of Liang Xiaohua at this moment is him." Mo Li introduced listlessly.
"Well, now that things have come to a point, I'm afraid that even if Liang Xiaohua is willing to marry, the Zhang family won't dare to marry her." Lin Ming shook his head with emotion.
"Are you willing to marry? Liang Xiaohua is now a person with limited behavioral capacity..."
Yu Qingfeng realized that she had said words that did not belong here in a hurry, and quickly shut up.
"What restrictions?" Lin Ming was curious.
"What ability?" Lian Shurong also stretched his neck.
"That means she is a mental patient now..."
Okay, I said it wrong again.
"Okay, these are all irrelevant things," Pei Wuyan interrupted impatiently and asked Mo Li, "Which butcher shop is this Zhang Hanzhong at?"
"What, are you going to find him? Yu Ji Butcher Shop." Mo Li said, and then moved his eyes to Pei Wuyan's left hand, "This hand of yours is..."
Pei Wuyan subconsciously retracted his left hand, coughed awkwardly, and raised his right hand to untie the bow, "It's just a minor injury anyway, so let's take it off."
"No!" Yu Qingfeng held Pei Wuyan's right wrist with both hands, "You can't remove it. You can do it after you get back. What should I do if it gets infected?"
Pei Wuyan turned sideways and shook off Yu Qingfeng's hand, with a look of disgust on his face, but he was no longer obsessed with removing the saliva-covered bandage.
Lian Shurong covered his mouth and snickered, then punched Lin Ming with his shoulder.
Lin Ming did not smile, a trace of loneliness flashed across his face.
Lian Shurong caught the flash of loneliness and a smile froze on his face.
"debauchery!"
Yu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the person who commented on herself - Mo Li.
The three men also looked at Mo Li in shock.
Mo Li stared at Yu Qingfeng coldly, with disdain on his face, as if Yu Qingfeng was a shame among women and had brought shame to the entire female community.
Although this was ancient times and feudalism was conservative, she just held Pei Wuyan's wrist just to stop him from taking off the bandage. As for that?
"No, this girl Yu is Lord Pei's person, how can she talk about being debauched?" Lian Shurong said with a strange expression.
Pei Wuyan coughed slightly, expressing his dissatisfaction with Lian Shurong's description.
Yu Qingfeng was not angry at all. Thinking of Mo Li's stiff and alert look when Lian Shurong dismantled the rope just now, and the verbal warning to Lian Shurong, she suddenly figured out something.
Yu Qingfeng wanted to conduct an experiment, and this experiment required the cooperation of a male.
Of the three men in front of you, who looks the least serious?
Lin Ming looked upright, Lian Shurong took advantage of the opportunity but behaved every time. Well, after elimination, Yu Qingfeng had no choice.
After a moment of silence, Yu Qingfeng stood up and walked to the kitchen to greet Pei Wuyan in a low voice.
Without thinking, Pei Wuyan thought that Yu Qingfeng had something to say to her face, so he got up and went over.
Yu Qingfeng lowered her voice and said, "Master Pei, does the wound still hurt?"
Pei Wuyan's face was full of disappointment, "It doesn't hurt anymore. Tell me, did you find anything?"
"It's best not to touch this wound with water for three days. When we return to the Sun Mansion, I'll ask Mrs. Sun for some scar removal ointment, otherwise it will be terrible to leave permanent scars." Yu Qingfeng whispered more and more.
Pei Wuyan's face was full of doubts, "Is this what you asked me to come over?"
"Well, that's it, let's go back." After Yu Qingfeng finished speaking, she took the lead and walked back without waiting for Pei Wuyan's reaction.
Yu Qingfeng suddenly quickened her pace and walked up behind Mo Li at lightning speed. Before she turned around, she stretched out her right hand and passed under her arm, straight towards Huanglong, to touch Mo Li's chest.
After all, Li Qingfeng was a practicing practitioner. He reacted instantly and grabbed Yu Qingfeng's hand. At the same time, he turned around and stretched out his other hand to pinch Yu Qingfeng's neck. The force was so strong that Yu Qingfeng's face instantly turned red.
For a moment, Mo Li's eyes turned blood red, but after she saw clearly that the person she was holding was Yu Qingfeng, she let go immediately.
"Why is it you?" Li Li retracted his right arm and bit his lip in disbelief.
Yu Qingfeng fell backwards and fell into the arms of Pei Wuyan who followed closely.
What happened in a moment stunned everyone present. Except for Yu Qingfeng, everyone looked puzzled.
Pei Wuyan supported Yu Qingfeng and asked with concern: "How is it?"
"It's okay, I won't die." Yu Qingfeng smiled bitterly. She had known that this experiment would cause her to suffer temporarily, but she didn't expect that the force of Mo Li's attack was beyond imagination.
"What did you do?" Mo Li had recovered from the unexpected shock, but his anger remained unabated.
"I, I saw sparks flying to you, and I was anxious to help you put them out." Yu Qingfeng lied.
The results of the experiment were freshly released, and it was exactly what Yu Qingfeng had guessed. Mo Li thought that Pei Wuyan was trying to be scornful of her, so he reacted violently. Driven by instinct, he wanted to strangle Deng Tuzi to death on the spot.
Mo Li believed it and looked down to see if there were any sparks on his body.
Lian Shurong sighed and walked to Mo Li with the rope, "You are a very manic woman. For safety's sake, let's tie her up."
Mo Li's eyes widened in an instant, and he suddenly exerted force with one hand and gave Lian Shurong a slap. He quickly stepped back on his feet and ran straight towards Yu Qingfeng and Pei Wuyan behind him.
Pei Wuyan was still observing whether there was any serious injury to Yu Qingfeng's neck. When he felt Mo Li's approach, he instinctively protected Yu Qingfeng with his body. He hugged Yu Qingfeng with his right hand and raised his left arm to resist Mo Li's attack.
"Miss Yu, be careful!" Lin Ming quickly stood up and wanted to come over to help.
Everyone thought that Li Mo Li would continue to attack Yu Qingfeng, but his target this time was Pei Wuyan.
She quickly took action and ripped off the bandage on Pei Wuyan's left hand.
"how come?"
Li Mo Li saw the "watch" on the back of Pei Wuyan's left hand. He was shocked and extremely disappointed.
Taking advantage of Mo Li's surprise, Lian Shurong quickly took action.
It was too late for Mo Li to resist. After two moves, he was subdued by Lian Shurong.
Yu Qingfeng looked at Mo Li who was tied up again, the bow bandage falling on the ground, and Pei Wuyan's bitten left hand, rubbing her neck, and suddenly became enlightened.
This experiment actually yielded unexpected results.
Yu Qingfeng raised her head and met the scorching eyes of Pei Wuyan who was hugging her.
"why me?"
"Ah?" Yu Qingfeng was confused.
"Next time, don't make your own decisions!" Pei Wuyan pushed Yu Qingfeng away, his face full of anger.
Why him? On his own initiative? Could it be that Pei Wuyan had seen through her lies and scheme, reaping the benefits of her experimental results?
