Chapter 104 Jiangcheng 37 Don't you have too much water in your brain?
Wen Li was woken up by Second Master's licking. When he saw her open her eyes, Second Master excitedly jumped off the bed, wagged his tail, and then lay down on the edge of the bed looking at her with pleading eyes.
Wen Li patted its head to comfort it, but still felt a little unfamiliar with the Second Master's attire.
The red cloak she wore and the golden crown on her head—those didn't seem to belong to her.
Just then, Aunt Song came in with the medicine. Seeing that she had woken up, she was finally relieved.
“Ali, you’re finally awake. These past few days, your body has been getting wounds all over the place. Just when they’re starting to heal, new wounds appear. I thought you were going to never wake up.”
Wen Li felt weak all over and her head was still a little dizzy after moving slightly.
"Aunt Song, how long have I been unconscious?"
"Ten days, today is the seventeenth."
Ten days! That's a long time!
"Drink your medicine quickly, and I'll help you get out of bed and walk around in a bit."
Wen Li took the medicine and swallowed it in one gulp. The medicine was so bitter that she frowned.
"No need, I feel much better, I'll be able to get out of bed in a bit."
"Okay, then be careful."
Aunt Song took the medicine bowl out, and as she passed by, Second Master grabbed it and pulled it out.
Wen Li exclaimed, "Second Master, there's no need to take him out!"
Aunt Song didn't turn her head and continued walking out: "It's been guarding here for several days now, I'm taking it back to rest."
As soon as Aunt Song left, Wen Li couldn't wait to get out of bed and start moving around.
"Si Xiaxia, get out here."
"You're here, host, you're finally awake. Waaah, I was so worried about you. You have no idea how scared I was while you were unconscious... And let me tell you..."
Si Xiaxia's voice sounded pitiful, and she kept talking non-stop, giving Wen Li a headache.
"clue."
"Clues! The first thing you do when you wake up is ask me for clues! Don't you ask how the protagonist is doing? Don't you ask if his corruption level has increased or decreased? You don't even ask me how I've been these past few days, all you do is ask for clues!"
Wen Li stopped what she was doing and stood there impatiently. Seeing her like this, Si Xiaxia could only swallow her words and mutter to herself.
"Okay, I'll tell you. But don't you dare betray me after you've served your purpose."
"Why don't you believe me?"
Si Xiaxia was somewhat uncertain: "I believe you."
"I believe you, then hurry up and tell me."
"According to the records, there is a man named Wang Mian, who should be almost fifty years old now. He was the only one who helped the Jiang family when they were wiped out. Now he lives in seclusion in a place called Peach Blossom Lane outside the city."
"Wang Mian, Peach Blossom Lane. Si Xiaxia, you're still somewhat useful."
Having obtained the clue, Wen Li first meditated and circulated her energy. Once she had recovered her spirits, she began to get dressed and change her shoes.
"Host, you've only just woken up and you're already going out? That's too dangerous! You need to rest for a few more days!"
"I'm not that delicate, leave me alone."
She was still a little weak after waking up, but she still wanted to go.
Moreover, for some reason, when I woke up, I felt that the spiritual energy in my body seemed to be more abundant.
"But host, what if we encounter a monster! Nothing is more important than life, host..."
"Shut up!"
Seeing that she was in high spirits, Si Xiaxia didn't say much.
After being given so many miraculous medicines, the host does seem to be recovering quite well.
Wen Li changed her clothes and was about to look for her sword when she realized that her sword was broken.
Although the sword was quite ordinary, I've gotten used to using it over the years.
She reached out and revealed a red ribbon, tied it around her waist, and then left the room.
Seeing that Wen Li's eyes were only on clues, Si Xiaxia became very anxious: "Host, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
"bad news."
"The protagonist's 'darkening value' has increased, and it has increased to 99%!"
Upon hearing this number, Wen Li visibly froze for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said.
"I knew Shen Yingsi was no pushover! All my hard work has been for nothing! Here's the good news."
"The good news is..."
Before Si Xiaxia could finish speaking, Wen Li suddenly stopped, turned around, and walked towards the corner of the wall.
As soon as Wen Li stepped out of the courtyard gate, she heard a sound and turned her head to see a pink hem of clothing peeking out from the grass in the corner of the wall.
Seeing this, Wen Li kicked him.
Wen Mingzhu leaned forward and cried out, "Ouch!"
When she crawled out of the bushes covered in dust, she saw Wen Li with a mocking expression.
"Where did this rat come from, sticking its big butt out like that?"
"Wen Li, how dare you kick me! Are you out of your mind? When I get back to the capital, I'm going to tell Father!"
Wen Li crossed her arms and looked down at her: "What mischief are you up to, sneaking around like that?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Mingzhu's eyes darted away, and she clutched what she was holding as she tried to run away.
"No, I didn't do anything wrong!"
Wen Li grabbed her collar from behind and pulled her back.
"Wen Li, let me go! Let me go!"
Wen Li grabbed her collar and lifted her up slightly: "Sorry, I don't want to let go. If you don't explain why you're squatting in the corner of my wall, I'm going to beat you up later."
"Wen Li, how dare you hit me! This is the Zhao residence! Let me go right now! Or I'll tell..."
"What is this? Let me see."
Before Wen Mingzhu could finish speaking, the thing in her hand was snatched away, and her expression became even more panicked.
"give me back!"
Looking at the little doll with needles stuck in it in her hand, with her name on the back, Wen Li felt both annoyed and amused.
"You've really learned to make voodoo dolls, haven't you, Wen Mingzhu? You even cursed me to die! How strange! Didn't you used to say you loved Wen Zhi'en the most? Why can't you keep up the act now?"
Wen Mingzhu clenched her fists and shouted angrily, "Yes! I hate you, I've hated you since I was a child! But isn't it only natural to hate you? Wen Li, you should have died long ago! You..."
Wen Mingzhu vented her anger all at once, when Wen Li suddenly grabbed her and slammed her against the wall with great force. Wen Mingzhu was thrown against the wall and felt a burning pain in her back.
"You think you can kill me? You don't have the ability."
"you!"
Wen Mingzhu gripped her sword tightly and thrust it at Wen Li, but before the sword could touch her, she was kicked into a corner.
Blood flowed from the corner of Wen Mingzhu's lips. When she looked up again, her own sword was pressed against her neck.
"What a waste."
Wen Mingzhu held her breath instantly, her voice trembling: "You...you dare to kill me? Aren't you afraid Father will kill you?"
With a forceful twist of the sword at his neck, blood stained the blade.
“Wen Mingzhu, let me tell you, I dare to kill anyone who annoys me, and Wen Zhien is no exception. Today is just a lesson. If you provoke me again in the future, whoever comes will have to give you their head.”
After saying that, Wen Li threw down the sword, turned and left. Her breathing was disordered, and her hands were trembling uncontrollably, but she still forced herself to straighten her back.
Wen Li quickly took out a pill from her spatial storage and swallowed it; the pill was bitter and difficult to swallow.
What bad luck! I've just recovered from a serious illness, and I run into a madman as soon as I step outside.
With tears streaming down her face, Wen Mingzhu shouted, "You're just taking advantage of Fourth Brother's affection for you! Let me tell you, there's absolutely no way you two can be together!"
Wen Li paused slightly, speechless: "Don't you have a lot of water in your brain?"
Watching Wen Li's retreating figure, Wen Mingzhu covered her neck, squatted down, and burst into tears.
Now, she really doesn't know what to do.
