Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.
Chapter 70 A critical moment
"Jin Yuan was called by this name when he was a child. His surname was Jin, his given name was Yuan, and his courtesy name was Wuchen. Jin Yuan was the name given by a Taoist priest friend of his mother, but the courtesy name was not known to anyone."
He started traveling alone at a very young age, always using the name Jin Wuchen. His fame was so widespread that, apart from close friends and family, few knew that Jin Yuan was his real name.
"As for Fei Qi, let him tell you himself when he wakes up and is willing."
Long Yu felt somewhat worried whenever Fei Zhiyou was mentioned.
They then devoted themselves to testing the medicinal ingredients, but after two days of trying, they still had no results.
The Fei family has become increasingly uneasy these past few days, with people sneaking in one after another.
At first, the twenty-four Fiends of the Canal Gang could easily handle the situation, but as more and more people came, day and night, they set their sights on Long Yu and the Fei family's vast fortune.
The allure of the overseas sea was immense, and many people were waiting for the arrival of the higher-ups. Initially, due to the Fei family's relationships with various parties and the presence of the canal gangs, they dared not make a move.
But with more people around, they became bolder and all wanted to take advantage of the chaos.
The wages of avarice is death.
And those of Feng Zhe who wanted to curry favor with him wouldn't care about this issue.
Chu Luo overheard Seventeen and Jin Wuchen reporting that several experts had gathered in the past two days to cause trouble at various docks of the Canal Gang, and that some people were also maliciously causing trouble for the shops and businesses under the Canal Gang's name.
"Let's leave those aside for now. The priority is the Fei family. We can discuss other matters after Fei Zhiyou wakes up."
Chu Luo knew that if Fei Zhiyou remained unconscious, Jin Wuchen and the Cao Gang would face more and more troubles and difficulties.
If given more time, even more experts will likely arrive from all over the country.
She took some time to visit the original courtyard. Now, the Fei family cleans the courtyard with light bamboo leaf water every two hours to remove the bloodstains.
Even so, every time Jin Wuchen finished dealing with those people and came to see Fei Zhiyou, he showed no urgency whatsoever, nor did he urge him in the slightest.
As he was about to leave, Chu Luo stopped him, saying, "If you go out, you'll be busy the whole time. Why don't you take a nap here?"
Seeing the concern in Chu Luo's eyes, Jin Wuchen smiled and said, "You're so considerate. Take care of yourself. I'm fine. You can stay here without worry."
After Jin Wuchen turned and left, Chu Luo realized that she hadn't given him the blood-activating and pain-relieving medicine she had asked Senior Long Yu for.
When he came last time, Chu Luo saw him move his wrist unintentionally, probably because he was tired from using the sword for too long, so she asked Long Yu for some medicine.
Thinking that she didn't know when he would come back, Chu Luo thought for a moment and decided to follow him through the secret passage. With him there, she felt much braver.
When she arrived, she found the Fei family's courtyard filled with people, each of them looking hostile.
It was only through their conversation that Qingniao learned that these people were all elders of the Fei clan, who had come to the door shouting that they wanted to see Fei Zhiyou.
"Fei Zhiyou is a member of the Fei family. If anything happens to him, it should be one of our own family members who takes over and manages the Fei family. How can it be the turn of a completely unrelated outsider with a bad surname to take charge?"
"Yes, we haven't even seen him yet. Who knows if he's that villain who's gone to steal our money and kill us, trying to seize the Fei family's business?"
"Our closest relatives can't even be near each other? What kind of logic is that? It's illogical no matter how you look at it. We need to see Fei Zhiyou."
The three leaders worked together, exchanging words as they spoke. The villain they were referring to was Jin Wuchen, but they were afraid and dared not say that he had provoked him.
This brought along many high-ranking officials and nobles who had received medical treatment from the Fei family, as well as some people who wanted to deliberately cause trouble.
These people from the Fei clan, using the Fei family's name, sought help from these people everywhere.
It is said that some villains are trying to persecute Fei Zhiyou and destroy the Fei family's business.
Fei Zhiyou's connections with his father's family were brazenly and arbitrarily abused by these so-called Fei clan members.
There were people standing outside the door who genuinely cared about Fei Zhiyou, but they were also unaware of the truth.
The Fei family reported the case, but instead of government constables, soldiers from the military camp arrived, standing on the outermost layer.
This is a series of interconnected events; there must be more to come. Feng Zhe's men are planning to surround and intercept this place.
If Fei Zhiyou doesn't wake up, these people will probably raze his mansion to the ground.
If Jin Wuchen were to take action, given his past practices, the Fei family would likely be stained with blood, and it would be tantamount to treason.
Qingniao and the Fei family members blocked the way outside, repeatedly explaining, "Our young master is receiving treatment. Please don't disturb him, or he won't let you off the hook."
"Even during treatment, we can still examine the person. Our Fei family is renowned for medicine; we know a thing or two about medicine, and we can even take a pulse. We can assess the situation ourselves."
"You haven't let us see him for two days. We've neither seen him alive nor his body. What's wrong with us demanding an explanation?"
"If the person is truly gone, we should handle the funeral properly. Out of friendship, it's only fair to properly settle things with the Fei family. As fellow members of the Fei clan, we have the most right to speak on this matter."
"Yes, the surname here is Fei."
Jin Wuchen blurted out, "Shameless! I'd like to see who's trying to pull this stunt."
He threw the cup in his hand, sending the person who was supposed to be in charge flying several meters away.
The man clutched his chest, coughing up blood, unable to utter another word.
"Look everyone, we just came to visit our own family and we've been beaten like this! This is outright robbery! If we don't go in and check on things now, Fei Zhiyou might not even be left with a trace!"
Some people began to incite others to take action, and the situation became tense and on the verge of exploding.
"I'm not dead yet, what are you all doing?"
Fei Zhiyou's voice came from inside the house, startling everyone.
The bluebird exclaimed with delight, "It's the young master's voice! Listen, it's the young master's voice! Now get lost!"
"It really is Fei Zhiyou's voice."
A servant came out from inside the gate and said, "Young Master needs to rest. We can discuss anything else later. If you don't leave now, he'll make you regret it later."
The members of the Fei clan considered leaving, but someone suddenly said, "Seeing is believing, let us take a look."
"I heard that Ziyuntai used to sell a medicine that could change one's voice. Does anyone know if that voice was fake?"
Chu Luo knew something was wrong. How could anyone remember her insignificant medicine and use it to expose her?
Another servant came out and said, "Young master has been unconscious for many days. He has just woken up and needs to bathe, change his clothes, and rest before he can see guests. If you wish to see him, please come again tomorrow."
"We just want to take a look; it won't cause any trouble."
Chu Luo looked to Jin Wuchen for help and whispered, "What will Fei Zhiyou say at this time?"
Jin Wuchen had heard Fei Zhiyou mention that Chu Luo seemed to be able to alter her voice through ventriloquism, but this was the first time he had heard it with his own eyes.
He was genuinely surprised that she imitated it so perfectly; if he hadn't been standing right next to her, he wouldn't have believed it.
“I’m in charge of the Fei family. Get out,” Jin Wuchen said slowly.
Chu Luo felt that this was Jin Wuchen's tone, but she still said it verbatim.
These words had a deterrent effect; after thinking it over, those people still withdrew.
When the bluebird entered, it did not see its young master and asked, "Where is the young master?"
"He's not awake yet; the voice just now was fake," Chu Luo replied.
"Who is it that can imitate the young master's voice so perfectly?"
