Phi-Fic Chapter 223 [Fuyao 8]
Chapter 223 [Fuyao 8]
At night, a man in black sneaked into Fuyao's room and cut Fuyao's fingertips with wire.
On the second day, a post on the Hun Tian Fang Ding announced the candidates who had registered for the hunting competition. Fu Yao's name was also on the list. All the disciples were shocked that someone from the Xuan You Department dared to sign up for the competition.
The hunting competition is extremely dangerous. The life and death of all participants are at the mercy of fate. The Xuanyou tribe has never been eligible to participate, so I don't know why Fuyao also signed up.
Qi Youyou was very surprised when she saw Fuyao's name, so she asked, "Fuyao, why did you sign up for the hunting competition? With your magical power, you would be courting death if you go up there."
Fuyao shook her head and said, "Senior Sister, I don't know why my name is on the list. I didn't even sign up."
"Fuyao, applicants for the leaflet application need to have their fingertips' blood dissolved in the white leaf before their names will appear in the square tripod. You can see obvious marks on your fingers." Youyou explained.
"What? I don't know anything about this. My hand was like this when I woke up in the morning. I thought I hit something and didn't think about it this way at all." Fu Yao said.
"Since you've signed up, you should study hard with me during this period. I will try my best to protect you during the competition." Youyou said.
"Thank you, senior sister. But will this disturb you?" Fu Yao asked.
"No." said Youyou.
Fu Yao signed up for the hunting competition as a slave, which violated the rules of Xuanyuan Sect. Yan Lie was ready to disqualify Fu Yao from the competition.
But he was stopped by Youyou, who said, "Master, since Fuyao has already signed up, we can't stop her. In this case, why not just leave it like this."
“But, disciple, Fuyao has broken the rules of our Xuanyuan sect,” Yan Lie said.
"Master, the rules are fixed, and we have to learn to be flexible. Besides, the servant is also a disciple of our Xuanyuan sect. Although his salary is a bit low, the fact that Fuyao can sign up shows that he has a desire to make progress. We should help them." Youyou said.
"Okay then, let's do as you say." Yan Lie said.
"Okay, Master, I'll take my leave now." Youyou said.
"Yeah." Yan Lie replied.
On the other hand, Uncle Zhou learned that Fuyao had signed up for the hunting competition.
Uncle Zhou took the initiative to find Fuyao to drink.
After three glasses of strong liquor, Uncle Zhou said to Fuyao, "Fuyao, I want you to leave Xuanyuan Mountain. The hunting competition is too dangerous."
Fuyao knew very well that if she left, the lives of everyone in the Xuanyou tribe would be in jeopardy, so she refused to leave.
The only way to survive now is the hunting competition. Fuyao said, "Uncle Zhou, I want to fight for a way to survive in the hunting competition. I can't let you get involved."
Uncle Zhou looked disapproving and said, "Fuyao, with your mediocre skills, it would be a waste of your life if you go."
Fuyao had made up her mind and said, "If this is my fate, then I will accept it. Senior Sister Qi promised to teach me magic in the next few days, and she said she would protect me during the competition."
"Okay, since you have made up your mind, let's do it. I hope you won't regret it." Uncle Zhou said.
"Thank you Uncle Zhou for your help." Fuyao said.
……
Changsun Wuji told Zong Yue that his identity was exposed, and said that Qi Zhen’s niece Qi Youyou knew that she was not Xuanyuan Min, but she did not tell Qi Zhen.
Zong Yue also felt very strange.
Zhang Sun Wuji said, "Zong Yue, please check this Qi Youyou for me. I always feel that she gives people a different feeling."
"Yes, I'll tell you when I finish checking." Zong Yue said.
"Okay." Changsun Wuji said.
Zong Yue was very curious about Qi Youyou, so he decided to break into Youyou's boudoir at night.
At night, Zong Yue got some sleeping pills. Just in case, before entering the room, Zong Yue sprinkled the pills into the room and waited for ten breaths before entering.
Zong Yue didn't take Youyou seriously. He believed in the drugs he made because he had never made a mistake. He never expected that he would run into a tough guy this time.
The ten breaths of time were up, Zong Yue walked in swaggeringly, trying to find something useful in the room. Zong Yue believed that no matter how capable a person was, he would leave some traces. He felt that You You must be no simple person.
But after searching for a long time, I didn't find anything useful. All they found were some landscape paintings and there were no clues at all.
Zong Yue didn't want to give up just like that. After all, he didn't want to come here in vain.
Zong Yue looked at all the places he had searched, and it seemed that there was no place to hide the things. No, it seemed that he had missed a place and had not searched the dormitory yet.
So Zong Yue went straight in and found a locked box on the dressing table. Zong Yue felt that there must be something he was looking for inside.
Zong Yue took a closer look at the box. It was exquisitely made and cleverly designed. He had the honor of seeing this box once before. It could not be opened without a key, and it couldn't be pried open just by prying.
Zong Yue thought, since the box was placed here, the key must be nearby.
But apart from this box, there were only hairpins and jewelry on the dressing table. If the key was not here, then it must be with its owner.
Youyou watched the man come in and do nothing but look for something. She had been following him for a long time, but he didn't find anything. She didn't know whether to say he was careless or what. How could a thief not be alert?
Unable to hold back any longer, Youyou said, "Are you looking for your keys? Do you need help?"
"Yes." Zong Yue said, not noticing anything wrong.
Youyou wanted to laugh, but held it back and said, "Here." Then she handed over the key.
Zong Yue took the key and used it directly, opening the box in no time. He was about to say thank you, but he felt something was wrong. Didn't he come here alone? Then who was the person who gave him the key?
Zong Yue raised his head and saw Youyou. He was startled and said, "You...you...are not knocked out."
"That little bit of drug you had was rubbish. I forgot to tell you that I am immune to all poisons. That little bit of drug has no effect on me at all." Youyou said.
"Then why don't you expose me?" Zong Yue asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I just want to know why the famous medical saint Zong Yue broke into my boudoir in the middle of the night? What are you looking for?" Youyou asked curiously.
"You can kill me or chop me up at my will." Zong Yue refused to waste time talking to You You.
"It's so boring. It was you who broke into my cave first. It's like I was forcing you." Youyou was speechless. She sat down at the table and drank tea.
Zong Yue looked at Youyou, who seemed very relaxed and at ease, and for some unknown reason he also sat down.
"You treat this place as your own territory. You feel more at ease here than with me, the owner." Youyou said.
"Miss Qi, you don't treat me as an outsider." Qi Yue said with a smile, and then poured himself a cup of tea.
"Aren't you afraid that I might poison you? How dare you drink my tea?" Youyou said.
"You drank it too," Zong Yue said.
"Okay, tell me, what is your purpose in coming to me? Let me guess, it was Changsun Wuji who asked you to investigate me." Youyou said.
Zong Yue nodded and said, "You are absolutely right. You don't look like Qi Zhen at all."
"Of course. I'm not his biological daughter. I'm just his niece. Besides, I don't like his style. What I can tell you is, don't test me. I never stand behind any faction. If you need help, you can come to me." Youyou said.
"Why do you want to help me? There is no free lunch in the world. I understand this truth. What benefit do you want from me?" Zong Yue said.
"Tell me, what if I only want this from you?" Youyou deliberately moved closer to Zong Yue and said.
Zong Yue could feel his breath getting closer and closer, and his ears turned red. He quickly sat a little further away and stammered, "You...you...stay...away...from...me..."
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect that the famous medical saint is actually an innocent little virgin." Youyou said with a smile.
Zong Yue tried hard to suppress his inner discomfort and said, "Miss, please don't make fun of me."
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Just remember that you can come to me if you need anything. I won't see you off. Take care." Youyou said, and sent Zong Yue out of the cave.
Zong Yue saw that he had already left the cave and felt very uneasy. He couldn't understand what was going on.
Seeing that it was about to dawn, Zong Yue hurriedly left.
