MTL - The Villain Always Wants To Kill Me-Chapter 3 The hero's little tenderness
Duan Feibai put the medicinal wine beside the bed, and stretched out his hand to lift Tao Jingyi's skirt. His movements are done in one go, but they don't look obscene at all, and there is no trace of disgust or discomfort.
Except for the swollen ankle, his gaze never stayed on other places for a moment. If she didn't know his true identity, she might be deceived by him too.
All her shoes and socks were left on the road. At this time, there was a snow-white jade foot under the skirt, ignoring the red and swollen ankle, it was exquisite, small and pleasing to the eye.
He lifted her foot, pressed his cold fingertips on the swelling, frowned and said, "It seems that the swelling is getting worse."
"Hiss." Tao Jingyi felt that he was going to die, why didn't the two sisters Zhong Lingyuxiu come back.
Duan Feibai raised his head and looked at her: "If you want to reduce the swelling, you will naturally have to be in pain for a while."
His serious face made Tao Jingyi really think that he was doing it for her own good, but given how much he hated her, he might use this matter to directly make her lose a leg.
Thinking of this, Tao Jingyi retracted his feet, and said with a painful expression: "It's dead, it's dead."
Of course I won't treat you.
Duan Feibai stretched out his hand, held the foot in his hand again, and reprimanded him: "How can you act recklessly on such a big matter."
Tao Jingyi struggled, but felt that his hand was like an iron hoop, and he couldn't get rid of it at all.
Tao Jingyi: "..."
She tentatively asked cautiously, "Brother Feibai, will my feet be destroyed?"
Duan Feibai was silent, and during his silence, Tao Jingyi's heart rose to his throat, wishing to slap himself, why did he ask such a cheap question. If he is determined to break her feet, he only needs to nod his head slightly, and he doesn't even need to find a reason.
Probably even Duan Feibai himself felt that if he just sprained his foot, it would be useless. If he said it, others would not believe it, but it would also damage his reputation. Although he was born as a swordsman, he also knows a little bit of medical skills. The medicinal soups for the poisoned people in this inn are all made by him. If her foot is really lost in his hands, it is really wrong.
He shook his head and said, "With me here, no."
With Duan Feibai's assurance, Tao Jingyi finally felt relieved. Even if he is a black heart lotus that can't be blacker than black, he is still that gentle gentleman in front of people. A gentleman's promise is more important than Jiuding.
Her feet were saved.
Tao Jingyi showed a relieved expression.
Duan Feibai looked up at her, this girl is a little strange today. His gaze became deep, but he didn't point it out. He stretched out his hand, poured the medicinal wine on his fingertips, and pressed it on her swollen ankle. The moment he pressed it down, his hand was like lightning, and quickly sealed her dumb acupoint, only then did she swallow her screams like killing a pig completely.
Tao Jingyi's tears trickled down, dripping on the back of Duan Feibai's hands like broken beads.
It hurts, it really hurts!
Duan Feibai paused with his fingertips, subconsciously relaxed his movements, and said almost to himself: "Xiyan, I remember you weren't so afraid of pain before."
Tao Jingyi vaguely remembered in the haze of tears that although Su Xiyan was delicate in front of Duan Feibai, she had never shed a single tear, even in the original book where the Red Maple Villa was burned, she was chopped off by him a hundred and sixty times. She didn't shed a tear either. She only shed tears in front of her little lover Su Xingchen.
This Su Xiyan is indeed a ruthless character.
Tao Jingyi held back his tears, not daring to cry unrestrainedly anymore. If Duan Feibai became suspicious, he might cut her to death with a sword now without waiting for the wedding night.
Duan Feibai's hand was covered with a thin layer of calluses due to holding the sword for many years, and it was a little painful when he was massaging. Tao Jingyi's tears hung on her eyelashes, she lowered her eyelids to look at his head, and fell into a trance, as if until now, she still couldn't tell whether it was a dream or real.
After an unknown amount of time, Duan Feibai let go of her feet, raised his hand to untie her dumb acupoint. Tao Jingyi immediately made a "hissing" sound.
A sprained foot really hurts.
Duan Feibai suddenly said, "Are you a snake?"
"You are the snake!" Tao Jingyi replied unhappily. Suddenly her wrist was lifted, she was startled, and she lowered her eyes to see Duan Feibai frowning and looking at her wrist.
"It's scratched here anyway." He took out a white porcelain bottle and a white handkerchief from his sleeve, poured the medicine powder on the wound, and wrapped it carefully with the handkerchief. With such a gentle expression and careful movements, even Tao Jingyi couldn't help being taken aback, almost being deceived by this illusion.
"Okay." Duan Feibai let go of her hand, stood up, reached out and scratched the tip of her nose, "be careful in the future."
Tao Jingyi looked at his leaving back, his soul was like a shell.
After Duan Feibai left, Zhong Lingyuxiu came late holding the new quilt.
Tao Jingyi came back to his senses, and couldn't help complaining, "Did you two come back after taking a nap?"
Both Zhong Ling and Yuxiu turned red, and one of them explained: "Miss, there are no new quilts in the inn, luckily I met Duan Shaoxia, he has an extra quilt."
Tao Jingyi thought to himself, it turned out that Duan Feibai deliberately pushed the two of them away. She said with a straight face: "Don't leave me alone in the future, especially leave me alone to Duan Feibai."
Zhong Lingyuxiu looked at each other, obviously puzzled.
Tao Jingyi hugged the new quilt and took a light sniff. Could it be that Duan Feibai slept on this quilt?
Just like that, Tao Jingyi hugged the quilt that Duan Feibai suspected to have slept on and slept all night. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and the sky was already bright.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and looked at her ankles. Duan Feibai deserved to have worked under the Immortal Doctor's hands, and his technique was top-notch, but after only one night, the swelling in his ankle had subsided, but it still hurt a little when he walked.
She limped towards the outside of the house, opened the door, and saw a piece of blue bamboo stick outside the door. The bamboo stick was green in color and had a faint fragrance. It was obviously cut down in the morning.
She thought it was sent by Zhong Lingyuxiu, so she picked up the green bamboo stick and walked back and forth two steps with it.
"Miss, you're awake, I'm going to prepare hot water!" A clear female voice sounded from behind.
Tao Jingyi turned around and looked at the girl in red. Last night she had already distinguished that the one who likes to wear red is Zhong Ling, she likes rich and colorful clothes, while Yuxiu prefers light colors, usually in light colors.
After Tao Jingyi washed up, he leaned on a green bamboo stick and walked downstairs to the lobby. Behind the lobby is a square courtyard, where everyone usually moves around. The remaining poison of everyone is still unclear, and the rescuers have not arrived, so they can only rely on Duan Feibai's protection.
Tao Jingyi walked around the lobby and greeted some people to confirm their identities.
"Are you still used to it?" Duan Feibai's voice sounded behind her unexpectedly.
Tao Jingyi was taken aback, Duan Feibai walked up to her, his eyes flicked past the green bamboo stick in her hand. Tao Jingyi seemed to understand something, and opened his eyes wide: "It's you..."
"This bamboo was cut by Duan Shaoxia on the mountain early in the morning for Miss Su." Cheng Tang on the side explained, with a look of envy on his face, "In the current situation, Duan Shaoxia is willing to go up the mountain alone because of you. Deep, thanks to Duan Shaoxia's high martial arts skills, it's not too bad that the demon sect plotted against him."
Tao Jingyi had nothing to say for a while, and said slowly, "Thank you."
Cheng Tang said with a smile: "What is the relationship between you two, there is no need to say thank you. I am very happy to see Duan Shaoxia doing these things. Hey, I only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals. I am really envious of others."
Duan Feibai turned to the medicine stove at the side, poured a bowl of thick black medicine juice, and handed it to Tao Jingyi: "This is a medicine soup to relieve toxicity, you take it for now."
Tao Jingyi took the medicine bowl in a daze, staring at the black medicine juice in the bowl, he didn't dare to drink it. The poison that Feng Lingzhi gave them was called "Puppet Fragrance", and the poison was overbearing. If Duan Feibai hadn't had medical skills and deep internal energy to forcibly detoxify them, I'm afraid everyone would have become puppets of the Demon Cult this time.
This poison is not only overbearing, but also extremely troublesome to detoxify. It is necessary to take the detoxification decoction every day, and then use internal strength to expel the toxin before it can be completely detoxified. And because of the toxic heat, it is necessary to untie the clothes of the whole body to dissipate heat in time when detoxifying, otherwise, the body will explode and die if one is not careful.
The Jianghu people in this inn, except for the three girls from the Red Maple Villa, are all stinking big men, even if they take off their clothes, it doesn't matter, but it is Su Xiyan, because it is a girl's house, Duan Feibai is inconvenient to use his kung fu, It has been delayed until today without detoxification. Although her poisoning is shallow, but after a long time, it will be harmful to the body.
Tao Jingyi looked at the bowl of medicinal juice in front of her. It wasn't that she disliked the bitter taste of the medicine. She was worried that because of Duan Feibai's hatred for Su Xiyan, he might not be so kind as to detoxify her. He would just pour it into this bowl of medicine. Chronic poison.
Tao Jingyi's face was full of hesitation, Cheng Tang couldn't stand it anymore, and said, "I said Miss Su, you and Duan Shaoxia are going to get married sooner or later, this body looks the same sooner or later, besides, I see Duan Shaoxia is Gentleman Pianpian, I will definitely not take advantage of you by taking advantage of your luck, why are you still hesitating."
Tao Jingyi looked up at Duan Feibai.
This is the reason why Su Xiyan's poison has not been solved. She and Duan Feibai have known each other for ten years, but they are just playing games with him. She has someone else in her heart, so naturally she doesn't want Duan Feibai to see her, so the poison has been dragged on.
Many people in the inn persuaded her to get rid of the poison as soon as possible, and even made a fuss about helping them hold a wedding. They became husband and wife, so naturally they didn't have so many worries.
Tao Jingyi thought for a while and said, "I'm not worried about this, I'm just worried that brother Feibai is too tired. These days, he has been expending his internal energy to detoxify everyone. I am not deeply poisoned, so it doesn't matter."
"So that's the reason." Cheng Tang slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, "Miss Su, you don't have to worry about this, our poison has almost been cured, and then we can expel the poison by ourselves. You can rest assured that Duan Shaoxia will detoxify you."
Tao Jingyi looked at Duan Feibai, who nodded.
Cheng Tang said: "Don't pick a date, just tonight."
Tao Jingyi thought, even if he ran away, he should get rid of the poison on his body first, so he didn't refuse. It's just that the bowl of medicine in her hand still didn't dare to drink. She sat aside with the medicine bowl and explained: "It's a bit hot, let it cool down for a while."
