Jing Xunchè went up the mountain with supplies as usual. First, he met the secret guards of the Dark Pavilion. After getting the latest information, he went up the mountain alone.
Although he had been living in seclusion in the deep mountains for some time, nothing that happened in the outside world had escaped his notice. Every day, the secret guards of the Dark Pavilion would come to report the situation to him. They were also working hard to collect evidence and find out the truth of what had happened back then.
As soon as he went up the mountain, he spotted his target. A sika deer dashed past him. He quickly drew out an arrow and followed the deer. The deer ran extremely fast, but even without using his light - footed skills, Jing Xunchè could keep up with it. At the critical moment, he didn't hesitate to shoot the arrow, and the adult sika deer dropped to the ground.
He was lucky today. He had only walked for a short while when he encountered such a big sika deer. The deer's meat could be sold to the restaurant, and its fur could fetch a good price. The most valuable part was the antlers on its head. Hunting just this one deer would be enough to support him for a while.
He walked up to lift the deer, but a strange smell wafted into his nose. Gradually, he began to feel dizzy and then completely lost consciousness. He fell to the ground.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a strange place. If it weren't for his strong willpower, he might still be unconscious.
"Don't forget to lock the door later. You'll get your rewards after this is done."
The overbearing voice of Li Biquán came in. Jing Xunchè closed his eyes and quietly waited for the right moment.
Li Biquán excitedly pushed open the door and saw Jing Xunchè lying on the couch as expected. After observing him for some time, she already knew his routine, so she sent people to lie in ambush there. The sika deer was, of course, her doing.
She thought about Jing Xunchè all the time. If it weren't for Mu Fengqié, she would surely be the one to marry him!
She came to the couch, reached out her hand to caress Jing Xunchè's face, and said indulgently, "Brother Jing, don't blame me. No one in this world is worthy of you except me. I really can't live without you."
After saying that, Li Biquán started to undress herself. At this moment, Jing Xunchè suddenly opened his eyes and struck her on the neck with a palm. Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.
Looking at the unconscious woman on the bed, Jing Xunchè showed a meaningful smile. Then he jumped out of the window. Soon after, he jumped back in through the window, threw a man onto the bed, and then jumped out again.
Mu Fengqié was alone in the yard, basking in the sun and daydreaming. Suddenly, a strange man rushed in, scaring Mu Fengqié so much that she jumped up from the stone bench.
"Who are you?"
"You must be Sister - in - law Jing. Sister - in - law, go and have a look quickly. Brother Jing... something has happened to him..."
"What? What's wrong with him?"
Mu Fengqié's first thought was that he had suffered a relapse of the poison outside. She had seen his martial arts skills before. A man shouldn't be able to get close to him. So there was only one possibility: he had suffered another relapse of the poison.
She stamped her feet anxiously, fearing that he would die of the poison outside. She just hoped that he could hold on until she got there.
"He... Sister - in - law, you'll know when you go."
As soon as the man finished speaking, Mu Fengqié grabbed her silver needles and ran out with the man, afraid that any delay would make her miss something.
The distance between the two places wasn't long. It only took a few minutes to run there. The further she went, the more something felt off. The place was getting more and more remote, and it was in an alley. Jing Xunchè had gone hunting in the mountains. How could he be here?
"Are you sure you're taking the right way?" Mu Fengqié asked warily.
So many things had happened recently that she had to be vigilant. She had never seen this man before. If it weren't for the news of Jing Xunchè's accident, she wouldn't have followed him so defenselessly.
The man nodded. "It's just up ahead. Sister - in - law, you'd better be mentally prepared later. Take good care of your body!"
Hearing this, Mu Fengqié became even more confused. Her heart was pounding. She didn't know what was going to happen next, nor did she know what she would do if things were really as she feared.
Since she had traveled to this world, the only person she could rely on was Jing Xunchè. She had already regarded him as family in her heart. She couldn't imagine what her life would be like without him.
The two of them walked into a yard. There were a few people outside the yard. An indecent sound came from the room. Even Mu Fengqié, a virgin, could tell what was going on inside.
Hearing this embarrassing sound, Mu Fengqié understood what had happened. It turned out that the "accident" the man had mentioned wasn't what she had imagined. It was an affair.
The loud sound from the room attracted many onlookers. Mu Fengqié's legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't move at all.
She had originally thought that Jing Xunchè was a reliable man worthy of her trust. Since he had promised to be with her for life, she also wanted to give her heart to him.
But now that this had happened, she didn't know what to do. She didn't know whether she should go in or go back.
"Sister - in - law, this..."
Mu Fengqié walked forward stiffly. The group of onlookers behind her also followed her into the room. She mechanically pushed open the door. The face she had imagined didn't appear in front of her. Mu Fengqié finally felt relieved.
The two people having sex in the room were Li Biquán and a strange - looking man. Mu Fengqié knew that they must have been set up. Jing Xunchè must have found a way to escape. Otherwise, the person in the room would probably be him.
Thinking of this, Mu Fengqié couldn't help but burst out laughing. At least he was smart. If he had really done something to betray her, she would twist his head off and use it as a ball!
"Little brother, you seem to have mistaken someone. The person in this room isn't my husband," Mu Fengqié said with great interest, as if she were just watching a show.
Hearing the sound, the two people on the bed let out a scream. Li Biquán was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped. Why wasn't the person on the bed Jing Xunchè? Then she...
"Ah! Who are you? How did you get on my bed?" Li Biquán screamed.
She couldn't accept this result. She couldn't figure out what had gone wrong. Now that she was being watched by so many people, how could she live on?
