Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

Meanwhile, Xie Xiaoyi was secretly amazed when Hua Tianyi exposed that he was wearing a human skin mask.

Master Hua Tianyi has such a discerning eye!

My human skin mask is a rooted human skin mask.

This thing isn't one of those cheap imitations made of waxed leather or tanned leather sold in stores.

It is made from the skin and oil of the Yinshan snow fox, and even if an ordinary person gets close enough to look closely, they will not be able to find any flaws.

I used to rely on it to cover myself every time I picked flowers, and no one ever discovered the truth about it.

How did this "Double-Achievement Healer" see through it so quickly?

Hua Lingshu frowned and asked Xie Xiaoyi, "Junior brother, so you're not your original form now? But you've been recuperating here for so long, and I haven't been able to spot the flaw."

Xie Xiaoyi gave an awkward smile, suppressing the panic in his heart, and knelt down again with a thud, burying his head low.

"Master, please understand! Your disciple had no intention of deceiving you. It's just... it's just that your disciple was being hunted down by villains of the martial world, which forced you to wear a mask and hide your identity!"

His voice trembled, each sentence carrying a deliberate feigned fear:

"Those villains are highly skilled in martial arts. I was forced to use this mask to conceal my whereabouts, hoping to escape their pursuit!"

Hua Tianyi nodded after hearing this and said gently, "The world is dangerous. Hiding your identity is the way to protect yourself. I won't blame you."

Xie Xiaoyi was overjoyed.

Without hesitation, he raised his hand, grabbed the edge of the mask, and yanked it with his fingertips.

With a very slight "rip" sound, the rooted mask that was so tightly attached to his skin was slowly peeled off.

call--

The autumn wind swept through the courtyard, stirring up a few fallen leaves and scattering the stray hairs on his forehead.

A handsome, almost intimidating young face was revealed without any concealment.

Hua Suwen was stunned, feeling as if her heart had stopped beating, and she froze on the spot.

She, along with her master, senior brother, and many other young men she had met while traveling the martial world, had a number of them. Her senior brother, Hua Lingshu, was also quite handsome.

Hua Suwen had never seen anyone so...so unforgettable at first sight.

When Xie Xiaoyi was wearing the mask, he was just an ordinary-looking boy who seemed a bit dull.

But as soon as the mask was removed, his undisguised refined and sharp aura, like the aura of a sword unsheathed, struck straight into her eyes.

Hua Suwen suddenly understood what the storyteller meant by the phrase "meeting a young man can ruin your life."

It turns out there really are people who, with just their face, can make you forget everything around you, even hold your breath.

She stared blankly at Xie Xiaoyi, not even hearing her senior brother Hua Lingshu cough softly to remind her.

Hua Tianyi's gaze swept over Xie Xiaoyi's face twice, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.

He became more and more satisfied with what he looked at it.

Xie Mo is a handsome young man with refined features and a well-proportioned physique, befitting his status as the disciple of the "Double-Skilled Medical Immortal".

Xie Xiaoyi felt extremely uncomfortable under Hua Suwen's gaze, and his heart was filled with unease.

He had never seen his own appearance since he transmigrated, and this part was not in the original owner's memories. He only thought that he had a lewd face that matched his identity as a flower thief.

Seeing Hua Suwen staring intently, he thought he was too ugly and had scared her.

He scratched his head, his voice a little weak.

"Senior sister, am I...am I ugly? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Upon hearing this, Hua Suwen suddenly came to her senses, her cheeks flushed red, and she hurriedly turned her face away, stammering as she waved her hand.

"No, you're not ugly! How could you be ugly... You're great!"

Hua Suwen's voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, until she could barely hear the last few words herself, but she silently praised him in her heart.

Wow, Junior Brother Xie Mo is so handsome!

Xie Xiaoyi was completely confused and felt even more uncertain.

After escorting his master, Hua Tianyi, back to the medicine hut with his senior brothers and sisters, he immediately rushed back to the wooden house where he had been staying for the past few days.

He grabbed the bronze mirror and brought it close to his face to examine it closely.

A young man's face was reflected in the mirror. He stared at the person in the mirror, touching and pinching his face with his fingers, and remained stunned for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

"Holy crap!"

Xie Xiaoyi muttered a curse under his breath, and the astonishment on his face slowly turned into ecstasy.

Because the person in the mirror is very handsome and dashing, without the slightest hint of sleazyness.

"God, you're still somewhat merciful!"

Although I was transmigrated into a womanizer, at least I was given a handsome face.

Even if she's a womanizer, she's a beautiful one. Not a bad deal at all!

......

Since becoming an apprentice that day, Xie Xiaoyi has immersed himself in medical books, and now he can casually study some classic texts that he couldn't see on a regular basis.

Hua Tianyi's medical hut possessed a vast collection of books, ranging from the properties and flavors of herbs to meridians and acupoints, from bone setting and pulse repair to antidotes for rare poisons—it had everything.

Xie Xiaoyi possessed Xie Mo's modern background, combined with Xie Xiaoyi's experience in the martial arts world, making him extremely quick-witted.

He understood the principles of pulse diagnosis that Hua Tianyi taught him immediately, and he could remember the herbal medicine identification techniques he learned from a single glance.

What's even more remarkable is that he can combine modern emergency care ideas with ancient medical techniques, and occasionally he can even come up with some novel ideas for Hua Tianyi.

As time went on, Xie Xiaoyi and Hua Suwen naturally had more contact.

Every morning, Hua Suwen would bring the brewed medicinal soup to his wooden house and tell him to drink it while it was hot.

That was a prescription to treat his old sword qi injury. It was originally written by his senior brother, Hua Lingshu, and it was also prepared by Hua Lingshu.

But ever since Xie Xiaoyi removed his human skin mask, Hua Suwen took over this task, even giving it the euphemism:

The eldest brother does all the work, so the junior sister takes over.

Hua Lingxu had actually seen through his junior sister's little scheme long ago, but he didn't take it to heart and was able to relax.

But how could Xie Xiaoyi give up the opportunity to be alone with Hua Suwen?
