Chapter 100 Shake hands and make peace
Chapter 100 Shake hands and make peace
Seeing Ma Liangcai's discomposure, Lin Fan tried hard to suppress his laughter and said to him, "Senior brother, you keep saying you'll take me with you? You crashed your own plane, what are you going to take me with you for?
Ma Liangcai grabbed his younger sister's long hair and frantically explained, "How would I know? How would I know! They'd be that stupid! That Wanshou, he believes in some bullshit method of immortality, even a three-year-old knows that's a lie, yet he believed it and went crazy trying to dig out my heart! What's the use of digging out my heart? I am me, and my heart is my heart. It's not because my heart is my heart, but because I am me!"
Lin Fan chuckled, trying hard to suppress his laughter. "It's okay, I understand. Please continue. Don't worry, I'm a professional at listening to people."
Ma Liangcai was somewhat skeptical, but in his excitement, he couldn't control his tongue. "I had already escaped from Wanshou. It's all that crazy guy Yuxuzi's fault. I had clearly hidden the only Red Robe Curse. He still insisted on breaking the seal and combining it with the Living Curse. His Living Curse has lost its core and won't be a match for Wanshou. In the end, he'll just be doing all the work for someone else. But that idiot just went ahead and did it."
"Oh, right, the most despicable one is that brat whose ancestors were expelled from the family. Pshaw, such a nobody, I can't even remember his name. I told him Yu Xuzi tricked him into coming to his death, but he still came! He's the stupidest guy; doesn't he know he's going to die?!"
Ma Liangcai finished speaking in one breath, his chest heaving, and looked at Lin Fan, "Do you think this is my fault? Are these people's brains made of mush? Don't they know what it means to back down when faced with a difficult situation?"
Lin Fan didn't really understand. He wasn't a reader with an average IQ of 180; who could possibly understand this jumbled mess? But that wasn't important. Lin Fan suppressed a laugh and said, "I understand, I understand. Haha, hahaha. What kind of bullshit 'seven-aperture exquisite heart' is this? I think it's just that you don't understand human nature. Don't you know what 'knowing it's impossible yet still doing it' means?"
Ma Liangcai paused for a moment, then said, "How dare you say I don't understand people's hearts? What do you even understand about people's hearts? How many times have you been deceived? Don't you learn anything at all!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's anger flared up. He coughed up the Soul-Suppressing Pearl and then started hurling insults at Ma Liangcai.
Seeing that Lin Fan had finally stopped, Sun Ruolan tentatively asked, "Brother Lin, did you win?"
Lin Fan pointed to Ze Zhishan's severed head on the ground: "Given the state of things, of course."
"No, I mean, did you win the argument?"
Lin Fan's face darkened. "There's no such thing as winning or losing in an argument. I've never bothered with winning or losing a verbal battle."
Dr. Lei's face twitched. Who was it that was spewing insults like that just now? If it weren't for the air in front of him, I think you would have already grabbed a knife and started hacking at him.
Lin Fan wasn't just arguing for no reason. First, he didn't want Ma Liangcai to keep bothering him like this. Second, he was seriously injured; he couldn't even lift his hands except for his mouth. Otherwise, even knowing it was useless, he would have already grabbed a knife and attacked Ma Liangcai.
Dr. Lei looked Lin Fan up and down. Overnight, he seemed to have become more mature, not psychologically but in appearance, or one could say he had aged considerably.
His face was as white as paper, and he looked extremely haggard, as if the banquet was about to begin tomorrow.
However, Lin Fan didn't seem to care much. He supported himself with both hands, slowly stood up, put away his weapon, dragged his body with one hand, and carried Ze Zhishan's remaining four hands away from his body with the other.
As I stepped out of the dimly lit weaving factory, the sky was already beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.
Lin Fan leaned closer to Doctor Lei, "Doctor, could you give me a few of your silver needles?"
Dr. Lei handed it over without thinking.
Lin Fan took a look and found that the silver needle was not what he had expected. Upon closer inspection, it was actually a small syringe that would inject medicine once it was inserted into the skin.
Dr. Lei lowered his voice and said proudly to Lin Fan, "These are not actually silver needles, but a special kind of bird feather shaft. The technology of the Great Qian Dynasty could not produce such fine hollow silver needles."
They hadn't gone far when a group of people came towards them.
Master Lin led the way, his face extremely grim. Upon seeing Lin Fan and the others, he hurriedly asked, "What, what happened? My old house has been abandoned for so long, how did so many mechanical puppets suddenly appear?"
Neither side knew the other's situation, and they fell silent for a moment.
At this moment, Chen Ergou stumbled and ran over from another direction.
He initially turned to leave when he saw the two groups staring at each other in a tense atmosphere, but everyone was staring at him, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk to the middle.
"Hey, everyone's here. Have you had breakfast yet?"
Lin Fan looked at Master Lin, "Master Lin, your people are worshipping evil gods here, turning innocent villagers into tools, making them work day and night. Shouldn't you give an explanation?"
Lin the rich man didn't ask who he was or why he should explain to him. He exclaimed in surprise, "Such a heinous thing has happened! Many people in my family have disappeared from the old house before, and people always hear the sound of spinning and weaving in the middle of the night. I originally wanted to ask the county magistrate and the militia brothers to investigate today. But you gentlemen have rid me of this evil spirit. Then I should thank you properly."
Chen Ergou couldn't help but retort, "Master, how could you not have noticed all this commotion every day? Now that the problem has been solved, you're saying you know nothing?"
Old Lin still looked puzzled and asked, "Have you caught who's playing tricks?"
Lin Fan threw the head and body he was holding away.
The wooden head rolled around once, revealing Ze Zhishan's lifelike head.
Lin Laocai was stunned for a moment, then stamped his foot as if he had figured something out. "I put Zhishan in charge of weaving and mulberry cultivation, but I never expected her to be like this, to treat human life so lightly."
He shook his head and continued, "You are all right. I am to blame for this. I will take my own life and go to the yamen to turn myself in. I will leave everything to the yamen to investigate and decide, and I will have no complaints."
Lin Laocai then looked at Sun Ruolan, whose clothes were tattered and revealed large areas of her fair skin, and asked, "Ruolan, what happened to your hand? How much do you know about this?"
Sun Ruolan lowered her head and pondered for a moment before answering truthfully. Mozhishan wanted her to be a saintess, leading the workers and weavers to worship the craftsman Buddha every day. Zezhishan had also come to convey the master's message, instructing her to cooperate with Mozhishan.
Sun Ruolan knew that Mo Zhishan was a favorite of the master, and Ze Zhishan was her close friend. Naturally, she had no doubts about this.
Sun Ruolan's account was entirely true, which precisely proved that Master Lin did not directly appoint her as the Holy Maiden.
"Ruolan and I were both deceived by this sorcerer. Ruolan is a woman and cannot endure the suffering of imprisonment. I will take full responsibility for this matter," Master Lin said frankly.
Chen Ergou looked at Lin Fan and said, "Brother, Master Lin has already said so."
Lin Fan relaxed and cupped his hands to Lin the Rich, saying, "We misunderstood you earlier, Master Lin. It seems this matter truly has nothing to do with you. Why don't we shake hands and make peace, and have a few more drinks? You wouldn't be stingy with a few drinks, would you?"
