Quick Wear: To get home quickly, do the task

Chapter 429 Is this vixen repaying a favor or seeking revenge?

At this point, the matter is still within the controllable range. As long as the family does not tell anyone, the original owner will not be kicked out even if he is scolded by his family when he returns.

The original owner was also unlucky. When he was almost home, he met his relatives again. The original owner's relatives did not know that family, so they naturally asked the original owner who those people were, but the original owner really found it difficult to answer this question.

As a result, the relatives misunderstood that the original owner had been kidnapped and made a fuss. The family could not bear to be wrongly accused, so they told the truth.

The people watching the excitement around also heard it clearly.

The original owner's parents, who arrived shortly afterwards, felt embarrassed by everyone's gossip and were afraid that it would affect their son's marriage, so they drove the original owner out.

But the original owner had no way to defend himself.

The original owner's death was indeed due to many coincidences, but the scholar's initial sneaky behavior and sudden disappearance definitely played a key role.

But precisely because of these coincidences, the original owner had no intention of taking revenge on the scholar in his mission.

Only take revenge on the white-clothed monster who was the culprit.

The woman in the dilapidated temple obviously took better care of the scholar than the original owner.

This is normal. The original owner was a fifteen-year-old girl who rarely saw wounds, so how could she bandage and apply medicine to people? She was in a panic for a while at that time.

After seeing Chen Zikai wake up, the woman chatted with him for a while. Of course, she did most of the talking, as Chen Zikai probably didn't have the energy to chat at the moment.

Yuan Feng also learned about the woman's background from her casual conversation.

The woman was also deceived by Bai Zixuan, but she didn't say she was a benefactor. Bai Zixuan promised her gold and silver this time, and the method he used was still to send dreams.

But this woman was very brave. It just happened according to her dream.

The woman was not completely sure about the situation, so although she seemed to be chatting with the scholar, she was actually trying to find out the truth.

Unfortunately, the woman tried for a long time but didn't get any useful information.

Chen Zikai's fever had not yet completely subsided, and his energy was really limited. The few sentences he occasionally answered had nothing to do with the answers the woman wanted.

This was not something Chen Zikai was intentionally on guard against, at least that was the case at the beginning.

From Chen Zikai's perspective, it's no wonder that he answered the question irrelevantly.

"You look unfamiliar, young man. You probably aren't from here. Where are you from?"

This question is not difficult, Chen Zikai answered it directly.

"Is there a marriage?"

This made Chen Zikai a little embarrassed. Why was she asking such a private question when they had just met? Didn't she think it was presumptuous? Before he could decide whether to answer, the woman asked another question.

"Do you have a guardian deity in your home?"

What kind of question is this? What is a guardian deity? Why did you suddenly jump to this topic?

"How did you get injured? And if you were injured, why didn't you go to the hospital? If you collapsed here and no one found you, wouldn't you have lost your life in vain?"

He didn't want to do this, and he fainted when he ran here. He woke up once in the middle, but he had no strength at all, so how could he go to the hospital? Later, he fainted again.

As for the cause of the injury, it is hard to explain.

If we were to talk about this matter in detail, it would probably take an hour, and he might not be able to hold on with his current physical strength.

"You look well dressed. Why would you go out alone? Are your family members worried?"

This question is not difficult. If it is asked by a close friend, he may be concerned about him, so of course he will answer directly.

But the same thing happened. Asking such a question when they just met, and the tone of voice even seemed to question whether his parents cared about him, made him somewhat unhappy.

"Did you get into some trouble, escape, and get chased? That's why you got injured?"

That's not the case. He didn't cause any trouble. He was just harassed by a Taoist priest for no reason. He was confused about the specific reason, so he couldn't answer it.

"I don't know when your injury will be completely healed. Do I have to take care of you all the time?"

This is even more outrageous. He doesn't know when he will be better, and he doesn't force the woman to take care of him.

Although this woman was his savior and could ask seven questions, he could only answer one...

Besides, he also had a lot of doubts.

For example, the arrival of this woman was very strange. It was as if she had calculated that he had a fever. She brought medicine directly with her. She even knew that he had wounds and brought medicine for them, not to mention the porridge. Thinking of this, Chen Zikai felt sick.

Who is this woman? What is there in him that people can plot against?

When I first went out, I still had some money on me that someone could take away, but now the money is gone.

Yes, after the young master disappeared, he met a Taoist priest. So far, he has been on the run for almost a year, and he spent all his money a month ago.

No one may believe it, but he survived this month by picking up silver coins.

It was so outrageous, he could always pick up silver coins. Each time, it ranged from a few coins to dozens of coins. The amount was very small, but it could keep him from starving.

So what is this woman planning?

As Chen Zikai became more and more sober, he became more and more suspicious of this woman.

Especially when the woman said that she had a dream in which an immortal told her to come here to save him and that she would be rewarded with ten taels of gold as long as she took good care of him, her defensiveness reached its peak.

What kind of crazy woman is this? She actually uses this excuse to deceive people. Or has she already determined that he is in her pocket and doesn't even bother to make up a more reliable lie to deceive him?

Chen Zikai is still sick, so even if he has suspicions, he has to pretend that he hasn't noticed anything.

The only thing he can do now is to take medicine well and try to get better as soon as possible, at least to have some strength back.

Of course, he was always on guard. It was the hottest time of the year, but he didn't dare take off his outer clothes day or night. Even when the woman suggested getting some water for him to wash, he reflexively tightened his clothes.

Yes, he now suspected that the woman was after his body...

Apart from this, he really couldn't think of anything else.

He can't go out now, which means he can't even pick up those few cents, so his pockets are really cleaner than his face. What is the woman trying to gain by taking care of him so wholeheartedly?

As for the immortal’s guidance in the dream, is it just to fool ghosts?

Who could have such an outrageous dream and then actually believe it and act on it?

Normal people would just laugh it off if they dreamed of such a thing.

But this woman not only believed it, she actually left her home and career behind and came here to save people?

He was not exaggerating at all. The woman had not even returned home for the past two days and had been taking care of him day and night.

No matter how turbulent the two people's hearts were, Chen Zikai was indeed recuperating well, and the woman was indeed doing her best to take care of Chen Zikai.

How can this be possible? Yuan Feng won't allow such peace...

Especially after that kind-hearted family appeared.
