Chapter 156 The Way of Life
Lin Lanshan slowly transferred the blood from her fist onto her handkerchief.
Then she pouted and reluctantly said, "Alright then."
Then, as if remembering something, he turned around, squatted down, and disdainfully pinched a small piece of the leader's clean collar with his index finger and thumb.
To him, who was already barely breathing, I advised, "Since you have a brain and a mouth, speak properly and be a good person from now on."
Today I'm just breaking three of your limbs; you can recover at home and still be useful. But if you do anything inhuman again, or say anything inhuman again, I'll make sure you're reborn as a worm that can only wriggle for the rest of your life! Understand?
Before he could react, Lin Chunyi squatted down on the other side and, amidst his screams, reattached his broken hands and legs.
It's broken, actually it's dislocated. They'd had a few previous experiences of accidentally dislocating each other's joints during fights, so they'd seen a doctor a few times and learned a couple of tricks.
Having set a bone, I guess I have some experience to begin with.
Lin Chunyi said to him softly, "You have to think about it. Your brothers not only got beaten up, but they also had to hand over all their money."
"And you've done so many bad things, and said so many insults to us. Logically speaking, you should be killed and buried by us, right?"
He then paused, giving the person time to think.
The leader nodded with difficulty and shrank back.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled gently, almost seductively: "We only beat you up, we didn't take any money from you. This is already being very forgiving, isn't it?"
So you should be grateful, go back and recover well, and don't do bad things again. You still have most of your life ahead of you to live a good life, right?
The leader's eyes held seven parts fear, three parts gratitude, and a flood of tears.
"No, I dare not, sob sob..." His teeth and blood had filled his mouth, making it difficult for him to utter normal words and sounds.
The human brain has a limited memory for fear. After a certain period of time, it will gradually forget.
But this statement is not complete. The brain's memory may gradually fade, but the body will still remember.
Just like in many novels, people who truly love each other will never forget each other, even if they suffer from amnesia.
But the body will still remember!
In just one special moment, the body can break free from the brain's control and subconsciously perform actions that one would have done to someone they once loved.
The same goes for fear.
Therefore, after someone is deeply hurt, it not only takes a long time to heal and forget, but also an even longer time for the body to stop reacting subconsciously.
The fear and pain this leader feels today, both visibly and physically, will take a lifetime to heal.
For the rest of his life, whenever someone mentioned words like "woman," "insult and harassment," or "black," or wanted to repeat those words or actions, he would instantly recall this day's memory.
Then fear and pain will immediately follow, engulfing his entire body and mind.
The leader, leaning on a thick tree branch that Lin Chunyi had personally chopped for him with a wood-chopping knife, slowly moved away from their sight.
"Alright, finally it's all settled. This place is unlucky, let's get going." Lin Chunyi patted Taozi, who had been well-behaved and hadn't panicked or moved around, and jumped onto the mule cart.
"Uh-huh!" Having witnessed many large-scale dangerous situations before, it remained completely calm and steadily charged towards the county town!
Lin Lanshan sat in front of the carriage and counted the money her sister had earned. Her eyes lit up immediately. "Then let's hurry up and buy the Jade Complexion Cream and Pearl Powder!"
Actually, they all had a feeling about today's events that they couldn't quite explain:
Just a year ago, they were just ordinary students in a peaceful country.
Now they can actually be so ruthless towards people, even thinking that killing someone wouldn't be a big deal...
Is it because we didn't fully stay true to ourselves, and the times changed some of our ways of dealing with people and things?
Or is it because they have abilities beyond those of ordinary people that they start to feel that they can do whatever they want?
Or perhaps it's because they've already taken lives and think that their actions today are already a very merciful act?
In their hearts, there was no definite answer.
No matter what, they cannot avoid these things, nor can they change their gradual indifference to the lives of others, nor can they return to their former kindness.
Well then, let's leave it at that. After all, different eras call for different ways of living, right?
Yes, they did nothing wrong!
The two sisters had no burdens and drove away from the place in a mule cart.
This place will be feared by the local thugs and gangsters for the next few years, and they won't dare to cause trouble!
End of the Si hour.
The bustling crowds, the hawkers, the slow-moving carriages, and the clinking of various instruments and the acrobatic performances...
The various voices blended together, creating a lively and bustling Yuanfeng County every day.
The first thing the two sisters did after entering the city was to spend the money they had earned from a few petty thugs that day.
As the old saying goes, unexpected wealth should be spent quickly!
They had about three ounces of food, and since it was almost lunchtime, the two sisters happily went into Shiweilou again.
"Hey buddy, find us a private room."
The main hall is free and quite lively. However, given the opportunity, they still prefer to dine in a private room on the second floor in peace and quiet.
It's lively, so just listen and watch from a distance. Who wants to be in the middle of the commotion?
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat. If something happens, it's no wonder that you'll be the first to be affected!
"Alright, ladies, please follow me upstairs to the second floor. Watch your step."
……
The wait for the food wasn't long, but it was still quite boring.
The casual conversations among diners in the lobby downstairs, and the bustling crowds outside, were all heard and seen by them.
Unfortunately, I didn't hear or see anything interesting.
Lin Lanshan took a sip of the bitter spring dew tea. "Sister, it would be great if Shiweilou could put on some dance and music, so we could eat and watch at the same time."
Even in modern times, they still enjoy watching variety shows while eating. These days, there's absolutely no entertainment left when you eat!
"...Look at you, you're getting more and more outrageous. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were some spoiled brat from a wealthy family. You even have to have music played and dances performed for you when you eat a meal."
"People always want to improve. Before, we were working hard to make a living, but now that we've achieved that, we naturally want something more spiritual."
"Just tell me straight, what do you want to do?"
Lin Lanshan finished her tea and then revealed a smile that could only be described as fawning.
He said in a serious tone, "Every time I come to the county town, it's the same routine: eat, buy things, shop, and then go home. It's so mundane and boring. I want to find something exciting!"
"?" Lin Chunyi's head was full of colons, but her brows couldn't help but furrow. She had a gut feeling that the stimulation her sister was about to talk about wouldn't be in a good direction.
