You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?

Chapter 68: 28, Yu Shiqi



My head hurts. My neck hurts. My back also hurts. My arms hurt even more. Lin Yue slightly frowned and let the girl in black carry him under her arm, darting haphazardly through the alleys as if he were a newly stolen oversized cloth doll. She didn't mistreat him, but she was just too careless. Her speed was incredibly fast, bursting forth like Thunder. His body could barely handle it, nearly breaking his back. Just now when this girl had carried him into the Fenghe courtyard, she accidentally made him hit his head against the door frame and scratched his arm on the corner of the wine cellar entrance, causing a large gash and leaving it bloodied without even noticing. "It's safe now." Inside the dark and cramped wine cellar, the girl in black set Lin Yue down and took out a Long Bright Pearl, allowing its gentle bright light to pour forth. She looked at Lin Yue, who was weakly leaning to one side, gasped in surprise, and couldn't help but say, "Were you attacked? Why is there such a big bump on your head? And your arm is still bleeding!" ... Lin Yue gave her a speechless look and didn't mind the injuries, just not understanding whether the girl was simple-minded or what. "Could it possibly be your doing?" Lin Yue, feeling a headache, asked, "Why did you bring me here?" "Me?" The girl in black was stunned for a moment, looking at him somewhat aggrievedly, "I didn't..." She couldn't be bothered thinking about these things anymore, continually pulling out various jars and bottles from the Void, "Ah, wait a second, I'll first help you stop the bleeding, just bear with it a little longer." "Let me see, this one is... for detoxification, right?" "This one seems to be for inducing sleep... no, that's not right..." "This one should speed up the healing of bones, would this medicine be useful for you?" "Strange, I remember there being a medicine for stopping bleeding... forgot where I put it..." The girl in black was constantly muttering as she pulled out jar after jar from the Void, uncertainly recalling the uses of these medicines, quickly filling up the floor of the cellar. Lin Yue was left speechless. This storage treasure of yours sure can hold a lot, huh... "Ah! Found it!" After a while, the girl in black excitedly took out a small bottle and handed it to him, "This is it, come on, eat one, and you'll be fine soon!" ... Lin Yue's mouth twitched slightly, and he gently pushed it back, "No need." I would have fully recovered by the time you finished rummaging for the medicine. "What's wrong?" The girl in black couldn't help but look at him, perplexed. "I'm scared to eat it." Lin Yue realized that with this type of simpleton, it was best to speak directly, "You dragged me to this dark place, injured me like this, and now you want me to eat some unknown medicine, how can I possibly eat it?" The girl in black tilted her head, thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "You make sense." She thought again and said, "Alright, then I'll eat it first to show you, and if the medicine works, you'd dare to eat it, right?" As she spoke, she quickly pulled out a shining Dagger and made a cut on her arm. "No... no need..." Lin Yue had just reached out his hand, not quick enough to stop her, and saw that the girl had already cut herself, blood instantly flowing out, and he somewhat helplessly dropped his hand. "It's okay, I'll eat it and show you, I promise it won't harm you, otherwise how could you believe me?" The girl in black shook her head indifferently, immediately poured a Detoxification Pill from the small bottle into her mouth hidden under the black scarf, and swallowed it. Then, rolling up her sleeve and exposing her snow-white arm, she displayed the bleeding wound, which under the light of the Long Bright Pearl, gradually turned from bright red to black... "This... Are you sure this is medicine to stop bleeding?" Lin Yue was somewhat incredulous. The girl in black slumped to the ground softly, feeling dizzy, and said, "Ah... I might have eaten the wrong one, this is poison, isn't it... Lucky I didn't give it to you, that's good..." ... Lin Yue suddenly realized that he didn't need to find a way to subdue her, as she would take care of herself. He sighed helplessly and asked, "Do you have an antidote?" "Should have... I think." The girl in black was dazed, leaning against the wall with a dark expression looking at Lin Yue, "You're moving so fast, I see afterimages..." "That's probably a hallucination..." Lin Yue's mouth twitched slightly, picked up the bottle of poison she had consumed to examine it, and then rummaged through the plethora of jars and bottles on the ground, picking up one, "This bottle should be the antidote." Luckily, over the past few months, he had obtained a book on pharmacology and had experimented many times on Xia Lie, making him somewhat proficient in Poison Skill. Lin Yue sniffed a Detoxification Pill before turning back to the girl in black, offering her the pill, and said, "Do you want me to feed you?" "I can do it myself..." The girl in black stubbornly shook her head, then reached towards another direction at a wine jar, "Thank you, give it to me." "...Never mind, I'll do it." Lin Yue shook his head slightly, feeling that even if he placed the medicine in her hand, she might end up shoving it into her nostrils. Just as he was about to lift her scarf, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you have any issues where if someone sees your face, you have to kill them or marry them?" "Ah? No..." "That's fine then." Lin Yue relieved, casually untied the girl's scarf, satisfying his curiosity. Hmm, quite attractive.
