Chapter 280 Ancient Hunter 2
The young general in the capital failed to achieve his goal.
He was not dead yet, but he was not far from death.
A humanoid body was bound hand and foot in a secret room, with its bones clearly visible.
The person's expression was controlled by the paper effigy, displaying an arrogant and unruly demeanor. Even when subjected to salt water extraction, chili paste burns, and clenched fingers, he could still grit his teeth and not utter a single word.
The reborn little general is used to being pampered.
He even had the energy to think about whether he was possessed by a ghost.
He? Assassinated the emperor?
How could they do it so grandly?
Having finally been given a second chance at life, he should wait a few years before starting a rebellion, until he finds Lin Tianfeng and is fully prepared.
Oh.
wrong.
At this time, Lin Tianfeng should still be called Lin Feng.
There is no use in thinking too much.
The reborn young general opened his mouth and shouted incoherently, unable to utter a single complete sentence.
"Ahhhhh" (I have something important to report)
The people in the prison thought the young general was hungry when they heard him call out.
He scooped a bowl of cold, life-saving medicine from a wooden bucket and forced it down the throat.
"Aaaaaahhhhh!" (The more sins Lin Feng commits, the better his luck becomes!)
"Stop yelling, or I'll make you drink my foot bath water."
The person ladling the medicine was annoyed by his constant "ahs," so he threw the ladle into the bucket and put a gag-like thing on him.
That's the downside of living in the palace.
The instruments of torture used here are more sophisticated than those used outside. Smelly socks and tattered rags are not allowed. The people who carry out the torture also have to be particular. Without a handy tool, it's really awkward to kill someone.
The Emperor with OCD: Is it my fault?
...
Xiao Yi installed a hidden room with eyes and then stopped paying attention to it.
After that, he spent his days wandering around the emperor's house aimlessly.
Eat the emperor's food.
They lived in the emperor's bedroom.
Using the emperor's chamber pot... no, that's unnecessary.
Soaking in the emperor's bath.
Visiting the emperor's estate.
Feeding the emperor's koi.
Visiting the Emperor's Garden.
When I was most bored, I would even sit on the emperor's dragon throne and pose for photos.
Pretend to be an old nanny or eunuch, and do some "chivalrous" or "righteous" work...
The monkey leader in the deep mountains acted like he was shooting a blockbuster movie about an empress, pestering Xiao Yi to pose and take pictures here and there. In the end, he even printed out some photos of the little general being tortured and burned them for the original owner who had already been reincarnated.
Sun Ping'an pulled out an old piece of clothing from the original owner and covered his head to block the wind. Upon seeing this, the little monkey jumped off Sun's head and landed steadily on Sun Ping'an's shoulder.
The child and the monkey exchanged a glance.
Take a running start.
Old Sun paused in his weaving of straw sandals.
"Kid, where are you going again? Can't you learn from your dad? Da Hu! Da Hu! Come here right now."
Sun Dahu was chopping firewood in the yard.
Hearing Old Man Sun's shouts, after much deliberation, he threw down the knife in his hand and went inside.
"Dad, what's wrong? Are you thirsty or hungry? There's some wild vegetable soup in the kitchen, do you want some?"
Old Sun watched his son perform quietly.
They didn't make a sound.
"Dad? What's wrong?"
"No, Da Hu, didn't you see Ping An just run past you?"
Sun Dahu was puzzled.
"I saw it! This kid inherited it from me; he runs pretty fast, hahaha."
Old Sun covered his eyes.
I regret bringing my child back home without finding out about the parents' personalities; my old friend misled me.
"It's alright, you can continue chopping your firewood."
"Oh, okay, hehehe."
Sun Dahu went into the yard to continue chopping firewood, wondering if his father was getting old and would panic if he couldn't see him and Ping An for even a moment.
It seems I should avoid running in the mountains.
Come back and spend more time with the old man.
*
Sun Ping'an successfully burned the old clothes, gold ingots, banknotes, horse-drawn carriage, small wooden sword, and a stack of photos.
This time, the monkey cosplayed as a Maoshan sorcerer, wearing a yellow robe generously gifted by the banyan tree, and holding a banyan tree wood sword in its paw while chanting incantations.
If you listen carefully.
You'll find monkeys reciting Buddhist scriptures.
I understand, it's about practicing both Buddhism and Taoism.
The original owner, who had already been reincarnated, suddenly sneezed, prematurely expelling himself from his mother's womb, thus saving his mother from the ordeal of childbirth.
And drinking the herbal medicine that caused hemorrhage, and stepping on oily pebbles that would make you slip.
This woman, who gave birth prematurely but naturally, glimpsed her somewhat unlucky half of life ahead of her when she gave birth. Still shaken, she rallied herself and urged her husband to be transferred to a post outside the capital as soon as possible. She also wrote a letter to her father, who was an official in her family, asking for his help.
A year later, he quietly absconded from the mansion.
As for those two troublesome sisters-in-law, she can't afford to offend them, so she'd better hide and save her family's lives.
The monkey system does not provide any prompts.
Sun Ping'an had no idea that he would reunite with the original owner a year later.
He put the baby monkey into his small basket.
They skipped and hopped down the mountain to chat with the children in Liujia Village.
It was run by a social terrorist named Old Man Sun. The original owner's family lived in the mountains all year round, but had a good relationship with the villagers. Even the original owner, a little kid, could find peers to play with.
"Sun Ping'an, you're here!"
"Er Mao!"
"If only you lived down the mountain, you might even have seen the Lin family's roof blown away..."
"What should we do then? Can we retrieve it if there's no roof?"
"this..."
Er Mao is a little younger.
He racked his brains, unable to figure out whether Lin Feng could find it.
Tiewa, watching from the side, was worried for him.
"There's no way we can get it back. I heard the roof was blown very, very far away. Lin Feng can't possibly retrieve anything from outside the village..."
Check it out.
Everyone is perfectly clear-headed.
Sun Ping'an pretended not to care, said a few words about how strange Lin Feng was every day, and then changed the subject, saying that he wanted to drag his friends to catch fish together.
"Shh, I saw Lin Feng catch a fish there last time."
"Okay ah?"
"Why don't we try and see?"
"Didn't your grandpa go to collect wild eggs once, and he even sprained his ankle in the end..."
Er Mao chuckled foolishly when he heard his grandfather sprain his ankle.
“He picked them up and ate them himself, how would I know if he actually picked them up?”
Iron Boy's hammer blow sealed the deal.
"Let's go take a look. It would be best if we could catch them."
Take advantage of the recent chaos at the Lin family's home to avoid causing trouble in the village.
...
Lin Feng is bound to cause trouble.
It's just that I'm too hungry to have any energy.
After her house was destroyed, she took her brother up the mountain to buy goods.
What they saw in the mountains was food, but when they carried it home and put it in their mouths, the Lin family realized that the bowls and plates were full of mud, animal droppings and leeches.
What's even more outrageous is.
The rabbits and pheasants who were once infatuated with her have changed their ways. Now they turn and run away from a great distance, preferring to jump off a cliff rather than get close to Lin Feng.
This is certainly not someone targeting Lin Feng.
The main problem is that Lin Feng's aura is somewhat unforgiving. Not only does he eat other people's flesh, but he also doesn't let them reincarnate. He absorbs their flesh and soul together, so there's no chance of a next life.
The Lin family has many wronged animal souls under their control.
The reason why Liujia Village wasn't easily fooled was probably because they were too poor.
They were so poor that if they went out with two cents, they'd have to stay home naked if they had three cents.
Liu Xiaohua, who was so poor she had hair ornaments, and Aunt Wang, who drank chicken soup, were both considered wealthy families.
The Lin family didn't know at first that they had meat to eat.
After an unknown period of time, the Lin family stopped selling their goods outside the village and insisted on selling them to the villagers at high prices. The villagers refused, and after the matter became a big deal, someone started tailing them a few times.
This made others realize that the Lin family was living a very good life.
