The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Chapter 546 The Man in the Dark

A white-haired old man walked in carrying a medicine box.

The old man was quite easy-going. He carried the medicine box himself without asking anyone else to do it for him. He looked like an ordinary old farmer.

When he saw Qin Huiyin, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Finally, they met the mysterious Miss Qin. They had no idea that she was so stunningly beautiful, not inferior to their lord at all.

However, this also shows that the two are made for each other.

The third master’s surname is Zheng. He is good at medicine, but he rarely practices medicine outside and only treats patients in the valley.

After he took Qin Huiyin's pulse, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"There's nothing serious wrong with the girl."

"She just went up the mountain in a daze and almost died at the claws of the white wolf. If she wasn't seriously injured, how could she have done such a stupid thing?" Zhuge Congfeng said.

"Girl, look at what I have in my hand..." Master Zheng waved a small ball in front of her.

Qin Huiyin looked at it carefully at first, but soon she found that her head was getting more and more dizzy and her eyes were getting more and more unfocused.

Master Zheng put away the small ball and said, "It is indeed an illusion."

"Third Master, is there anyone else in our Wuxiang Valley who knows hypnotic illusion?"

"Although I have accepted several disciples, none of them have mastered this technique, so I am the only one in the entire valley..." Master Zheng said this and looked at Zhuge Congfeng, Puyang Qiubai and others. "You are not doubting me, are you? This woman is more useful alive than dead. Why would I kill her?"

"She fell under that illusion. Will she be more susceptible to spells in the future?"

"It's possible," Master Zheng said, "especially since she's weak right now, making her more vulnerable to ambush."

Ouyang Qianyu walked into the room with difficulty: "How is Yinyin?"

"You're still injured, what are you doing here?" Puyang Qiubai said, "Yinyin is fine, she just needs to slowly recuperate and rest for a few days."

"We should conduct a thorough investigation in Wuxiang Valley, especially those who have had contact with Yinyin recently." Ouyang Qianyu said, "Why did this person want to hurt Yinyin? He must have a motive. If he didn't have a motive, only a madman would attack others indiscriminately. That person wanted to kill Yinyin, did he think Yinyin was an obstacle to him in some way? Then whose interests were harmed by Yinyin's existence?"

"Qianyu really hits the nail on the head," Puyang Qiubai said. "Congfeng and Congyun, we won't be leaving the valley lately. I'll leave the investigation of this murderer to you."

"My lord, what we told Congfeng before..." After seeing Qin Huiyin, Master Zheng wanted to promote the things he had mentioned before.

"Yinyin needs to rest. Don't disturb him here." Puyang Qiubai said, "Third Master, if you have anything to say, please go to the study."

Puyang Qiubai took Master Zheng away, leaving Ouyang Qianyu and the twins of the Zhuge family alone in the room.

"Brother, I'll go check who's on patrol today and see if anyone has seen anyone strange." Zhuge Congyun said.

"Okay, you go first!"

Qin Huiyin patted the seat next to her and said to Ouyang Qianyu, "It's okay now. I can lie with you on the hospital bed. How about we lie down together and talk?"

"You're quite careless, even joking around." Zhuge Congfeng said, "Aren't you afraid that person will attack you again?"

"Someone wants to kill me, not me. How can I defend myself against a hidden killer?" Qin Huiyin said, "Anyway, you won't see me die. With you protecting me, I just need to take good care of myself. If even you can't protect me, there's no point in worrying about it. I'll die anyway."

Zhuge Congfeng: "..."
