Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Broken Flower Vase (1)_1 Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Broken Flower Vase (1)_1 Lin Yuan’s momentum in pursuing her victory indeed succeeded in quelling those clamoring people again, after all, the man she had beaten was still rolling on the ground holding his leg and howling in pain.
The village headman wanted to speak, but the man kept howling, cursing Lin Yuan from time to time, which was truly headache-inducing.
Lin Yuan was thinking of dragging him outside when suddenly the man stiffened his body, went motionless, and stopped shouting.
His posture, however, still looked like he was in the middle of rolling and holding his leg.
Lin Yuan was dumbfounded, and so were all the onlookers.
Had he just freaked out after being hit with a stick?
But freaking out didn’t look !
“Oh no, Little Disaster Star, you’ve killed someone!” Lady Ma was the first to cry out, her eyes full of fear and a look of relishing the chaos.
Li Feng’e seemed to catch onto some useful information and hurriedly got up from the ground, pointing at Lin Yuan and loudly accusing, “You’ve killed someone in front of everyone, the whole village saw it!
Little Disaster Star, now even if you haven’t committed adultery, you’re going to end up in jail waiting for your death!
Village headman, aren’t you going to catch this murderer at once?
Hurry, or she might run away, and if the Government Office can’t find her, they’ll put you in jail to take the blame!”
At this moment, the village headman was also befuddled.
It was one thing for the girl to fight, but to have accidentally killed someone?
She really didn’t know her own strength.
Stunned for a moment, Lin Yuan then realized that although the man was motionless and silent, his eyes were still open, and his eyeballs were moving around quite quickly, not at all like someone who had died.
Clearly, someone had used acupoint-sealing to immobilize him.
But the person who sealed the acupoints was truly skilled; she hadn’t noticed anyone making a move, yet there he was, immobilized.
Could this be the legendary “distant acupoint sealing”?
Amazing, truly amazing!
Scanning the faces of everyone in the yard, Lin Yuan saw only Liuzi and Lao Fan as strangers.
Liuzi was securely tied up, so could it be Lao Fan?
As she wondered, she saw Lao Fan roll his eyes at something, emerged from the house, and coughed loudly.
He stroked his grizzled beard with one hand, looking disdainfully at the foolish villagers who were acting so rashly without knowing the facts.
“I came to see a patient and happened upon such an entertaining event of dunking someone in a pig cage, ha-ha!
Come on, tell me, who’s having an affair with whom?”
With his unexpected appearance, Lao Fan immediately drew the attention of everyone there, shifting their focus from the immobilized man to him.
This old man with grizzled hair and beard, where had he come from?
It seemed like he had walked out of the house.
With all the commotion going on outside, why had the old fellow only just emerged?
Lin Jiaxiao was the first to react, pointing at him and bellowing, “You old coot, who are you?
How come you’re coming out of my second brother’s house?
And we’ll handle our own affairs in Lin family village, don’t meddle!
Go about your business!”
Lao Fan’s beard bristled in defiance.
You’re the old coot, your whole family are old coots!
I won’t bother with you!
Lin Jiazhong, after all, had mingled among the wealthy families in the town and could tell by Lao Fan’s dress and demeanor that he was definitely not an ordinary old man from the village.
He must be someone significant, and he had also just mentioned that he was here to see a patient, no doubt for his second brother’s leg.
Could it be that this is a doctor from Shande Hall in town?
But he had heard that Shande Hall charged exorbitantly high fees, and even his own boss seldom dared to hire them.
If this really was a doctor from Shande Hall, they couldn’t afford to offend him.
