Chapter 531
Collecting his true qi, Lin Ran couldn’t help but let out a long breath of relief, finding the gold swallowing stone in the old man’s body had taken him by surprise.
“Brother Lin Ran? I wonder if ….”
At the side, Li Sheng had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Lin Ran open his eyes, he was busy coming forward to ask.
However, Lin Ran did not answer, instead his gaze fell on the corner of Elder Li’s mouth, only to see that on the side of the corner of his mouth, there was a small black spot that seemed to be the remnants of something.
Lin Ran brought a piece of paper and gently wiped the black spot off the corner of the old man’s mouth, placed it in front of his eyes and looked at it, then sniffed it again, a very unseemly action that caused Li Sheng to frown slightly.
“Brother Lin Ran, what are you doing?”
“Nothing, found something!”
Lin Ran laughed, while putting the paper aside, and then said.
“Just as I guessed, your father’s soul is no longer in his body, and to put it bluntly, he is now a living dead body!”
“What?”
Li Sheng’s face changed at his words, and his handsome face was filled with a wave of anger and killing intent.
“Can you find my father’s soul? Also find out who did it? As long as Brother Lin can find out, you can ask for any kind of remuneration!”
“It’s not a matter of payment, and as I said before, Wu Shen Mu!”
Lin Jean said as he took out the Wu Shen Mu.
“Weng!”
As soon as the Wu Shen Mu was taken out, it trembled rapidly, and wisps of black light continued to gush out from within the Wu Shen Mu, as if something was about to burst out.
“Brother Lin Ran, do you mean that my father’s soul is within this dustless wood?”
Li Sheng asked busily.
“That’s right, since you know about this Wu Shen Wood, then I think you should also know its properties well, but why your father’s soul is inside this, that’s something I can’t tell you for now!”
When he said this, Lin Ran’s gaze however glanced outwards and followed in a loud voice.
“However, I will soon find out the murderer! It’s not just for you and the old man, it’s for my friend’s business!”
“Ridiculous!”
Lin Ran’s words had just fallen, and before Li Sheng could answer, Daoist Master Sequoia outside spoke up.
“Sir Li Sheng, this kid is an uneducated liar, you can’t be fooled by him, taking a random piece of wood and claiming it to be wu shen wood, and saying that a human soul lives inside, don’t you think that’s too much bullSh*t?”
Saying that, Daoist Master Sequoia actually walked in from outside and looked at Lin Ran in a cold voice.
“Besides, I’m also a Feng Shui master, you can’t fool me about such things!”
Luo Cheng also followed him in and spoke.
“Daoist Master Hong Suan, how do you say this, this wu sink wood was found exactly from within the mountain, and this wood is so alien, there is how it is ordinary wood, can’t you see all this?”
“Red cedar, say what you think!”
Li Sheng surprisingly did not get angry, instead, he looked at Daoist Master Red Suan and asked.
“Yes, Lord Li Sheng!”
Daoist Master Red Cedar bowed respectfully at his words, and then said.
“It’s true that wu sink wood is Yin in nature, but does that mean that there are spirits living inside? Even if there is a soul living inside, who can prove that it is Master Li’s!”
Speaking here, Daoist Master Sequoia looked towards Li Sheng and said nervously.
“Sir Li Sheng, you have no idea, if the soul inside here is not Master Li’s, and once it is allowed to enter Master Li’s body, then it will inevitably cause a collision with Master Li’s soul, and what problems will occur then, no one can predict!”
“What is the most serious consequence?”
Li Sheng asked with a tight frown.
“A damaged soul, similar to a vegetable!”
Daoist Master Sequoia solemnly said, and Li Sheng’s heart sank when he heard it, his brow furrowed a few degrees tighter.
Li Sheng’s reaction made Daoist Master Red Cedar quite satisfied as he looked towards Lin Ran smugly and said.
“Kid, I admit that you have two brushes, but there are times when you have to know how to advance and retreat. If you know what you’re doing, get out of my sight or I’ll be rude!”
“You’re not polite? It seems that Daoist Master Sequoia has never been polite to me!”
Lin Ran said indifferently, then looked at Li Sheng.
“Sir Li Sheng, there is something I must tell you, according to the time projection, Master Li should have been in a coma for six days now, which means that today is the seventh day, and as long as the soul still hasn’t returned by midnight tonight, do you know what will happen?”
“What is it?”
Li Sheng asked, frowning.
“Then it will never come back, after a person dies there is the seventh day of the head, these seven days are the seven days for the soul to return to the fond world, and if a person’s soul leaves the physical body for seven days, unless a special method is used to preserve the soul, the physical body will rot and the soul will scatter, and there will be no place to die!”
Lin Ran solemnly said, and Li Sheng listened with obvious bewilderment, his palms unconsciously tightened a few points.
“I don’t know if Daoist Master Red Cedar did it on purpose or if he really forgot, he didn’t seem to have talked to you about this!”
Lin Ran looked at Daoist Master Sequoia and said blandly.
“You! What need is there to say about this, I am also trying to find the soul of the old man!”
Daoist Master Sequoia’s face was ironic.
On the side, Li Sheng’s gaze had changed, because Daoist Master Red Cedar had indeed not said anything about this, and today was indeed the last day, the seventh day.
“There is one more thing I would like to say, before that Luo Cheng and I met Daoist Master Red Cedar at the mountain villa, Master Li is in critical condition, and he also said he was searching for Master’s soul while he was also within the mountain villa, all this already shows that Master’s soul was within the mountain villa before, so whether to draw out the soul into the body or not, Sir Li Sheng decide for yourself! ”
After saying that, Lin Ran blandly turned around and did not speak, what he could say had already been said and done, what was left was up to Li Sheng’s own judgment.
Li Sheng did not say anything, just frowned tightly, pondering how to decide.
Time pa*sed by minute by minute, and after a full incense stick of time, finally Prince Li Sheng raised his head and looked at Lin Ran.
“Draw the soul into the body!”
“Duke Li Sheng mustn’t! This kid is fooling you!”
Daoist Master Sequoia saw this and was busy saying, however, Li Sheng gave him a look and said blandly.
“I have my own judgement, there is no need to say anything!”
“But …..”
Daoist Master Red Cedar still wanted to say something, but on the other hand, Lin Ran had already made his move.
He saw his hands form a seal, “bang bang” and slapped it directly on the Wu Shen wood.
And with the black Qi so, the originally quiet Old Master Li suddenly coughed violently, while a voice also sounded.
“Sheng’er, I am …… What’s wrong?”
“Father!”
Seeing that his father had indeed woken up, Li Sheng’s eyes instantly reddened and he busily ran to the bedside.
Lin Ran smiled and turned his head to look at Daoist Master Sequoia.
“Daoist Master Sequoia, do you have anything else to say?”
Daoist Master Red Cedar’s face was as gloomy as water as he glanced at Lin Ran and coldly snorted as he flung his sleeve robe.
“Humph! You are just lucky, since the old master has woken up and the matter of the mountain villa has been resolved, it is useless for me to stay, let’s not change the green hills and the green waters!”
“Farewell!”
He said and turned to leave.
However, just at that moment, Lin Ran spoke.
“Stand still! Daoist Master Sequoia, isn’t it too irresponsible for you to leave like this!”
Chapter 532
“Responsibility? What responsibility does I have? Do I have to take responsibility for not curing Master Li? This is the first time I’ve heard of such a sophistry!”
Daoist Master Sequoia said in a cold voice, his eyes full of resentment.
“Brother Lin Ran, why don’t we just let him go, it’s useless to stay here anyway!”
Luo Cheng laughed, he really didn’t like this Daoist of the Redwoods, anyway, Elder Li had woken up and it was time for them to leave, so what did they care about this Daoist of the Redwoods.
“Brother Lin Ran, my father needs to rest, it’s better to let him go!”
On the side, Li Sheng also spoke up.
Lin Ran, however, shook his head.
“You two, if you let the murderer go, are you sure you won’t regret it?”
“The murderer?”
Luo Cheng and Li Sheng were both stunned at the words, especially the latter, who had just asked Lin Ran if he could find the murderer, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Ran was saying that Daoist Master Red Cedar was the murderer.
“Brother Lin Ran, where does this come from?”
Li Sheng asked busily, his father had just woken up and followed him to sleep, so he didn’t need much how to take care of him at this point.
“Kid! You better tell me clearly, who are you calling a murderer!”
Daoist Master Sequoia looked at Lin Ran and chided him coldly, his face full of anger, as if he had truly been wronged.
“Who am I saying is the murderer, don’t you have a point in your own heart?”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“You say I’m the murderer, am I the murderer? Where is the evidence? If you can’t produce evidence today, I’ll look good if I do!”
Daoist Master Sequoia said in a cold voice.
“Ranzi, you …..”
Luo Cheng was busy coming up, his face full of worry.
“Don’t worry, if I say he’s the murderer, I can naturally produce evidence!”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
The fact that Luo Cheng saw that Lin Ran was so confident, his tense heart couldn’t help but loosen up a bit, all along the words Lin Ran had said had rarely not been fulfilled.
Li Sheng, however, listened with a frown and got up to come beside the two, watching quietly without saying anything.
“Fine, then I’ll wait for you to produce evidence, but I can say something ugly in front of me, if you can’t produce evidence today, don’t even think about leaving the Li family’s gates!”
Said Daoist Master Red Cedar, looking at Li Sheng at the side, and said in a hard tone.
“Sir Li Sheng, you don’t have a problem with that, do you!”
“It’s better to wait until Lin Ran has finished speaking, if he is really slandering you, he will naturally be left to you to deal with, but not in my Li family, after all, he has just cured my father!”
Li Sheng said blandly.
Daoist Master Sequoia’s eyes narrowed slightly at his words, and his heart was a little upset, but it was good enough for Li Sheng not to interfere, and he wouldn’t make a fool of himself at this point.
“Yes!”
Daoist Master Sequoia smiled blandly and turned his head to look at Lin Ran.
“Kid, show your evidence, I came here this time at Master Li’s invitation, I want to see how you can prove that I am the murderer!”
“Well, don’t worry, I’ll prove it!”
Lin Ran said indifferently, following which he turned his head and picked up the tissue he had placed on the table before and handed it to Li Sheng.
“Sir Li Sheng, you should know this thing!”
“This is?”
Li Sheng was a little puzzled and took the tissue paper and looked at it.
“This is the herbal medicine that Daoist Master Red Cedar prepared for my father, it seems to be named Vitality San!”
“That’s right, it’s vitality san, it’s blended with Cordyceps as well as ginseng and snow lotus, with Tibetan flowers, it contains dozens of herbs that nourish the qi and blood, how come there’s something wrong with this medicine too?”
Daoist Master Sequoia looked at Lin Ran and said disdainfully.
“Kid, what I want is the evidence you produce, not you talking nonsense here, it’s hard for the old man’s herbs to have problems too!”
“Naturally there are problems!”
Lin Ran said blandly without a care in the world.
“I studied Chinese medicine at university, so in terms of the medicinal properties of herbs, I’m afraid that Daoist Master Sequoia is inferior to me.”
“Not as good as you? What are you, I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice, you’re worthy of showing off your knowledge in front of me!”
Daoist Master Sequoia said disdainfully.
Lin Ran was indeed unconcerned and laughed blandly.
“Whether you’re worthy or not, you’ll find out next, Daoist Master!”
With that Lin Ran brought the incense burner to the side and smoked the remnants of the medicine on the paper towel, the Daoist Master Red Cedar’s face instantly changed at this scene.
“What are you doing, brother Lin Ran?”
Li Sheng was puzzled and busily asked.
“Both the Tranquilizing Incense and this medicine itself are very good herbs, and alone they are also a great tonic or tranquilizer for the patient, but do you know what will happen if you use them together?”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“What consequences?”
Li Sheng was busy asking, as it was about his father, he naturally wanted to know very much.
Lin Ran smiled lightly and followed by turning the paper towel over, immediately Li Sheng and Luo Cheng saw that the original black herbal residue had actually melted away, drops of black liquid flowed down the paper towel, and a pungent stench filled the area where it pa*sed.
“After mixing with the herbs, the anthroposophic incense is no longer a tonic, but a chronic poison, and when taken for a long time, the human body’s functions are damaged tremendously, which is why the old man’s soul has now returned to being, but is still in a deep sleep!”
Lin Ran said indifferently, while looking at Daoist Master Sequoia.
“Daoist Master, if I’m not wrong, as long as the old man’s soul doesn’t return to its place after today, his old man’s body will definitely decay within a day, am I right!”
“You! What a load of nonsense, I have no idea what you are talking about!”
Daoist Master Sequoia’s face turned ugly, and his speech became stammering.
“Brother Lin Ran, then my father he was poisoned …..”
Li Sheng did not care about Red Cedar and was busy asking Lin Ran, his father’s body was the most important thing now.
“There is no harm, the soul returns to the place those toxins will slowly be expelled, after all, it is a chronic poison, the toxicity will not be very strong, resting for a few days will heal!”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“Many thanks! Thanks a lot!”
Li Sheng was busy saluting, which caused Luo Cheng to be stunned, with the former’s pride and status, actually saluting Lin Ran was the first time he had ever seen that.
On the side, Daoist Master Sequoia’s face was ironic, seeing this he said in a cold voice.
“Lin Ran, even if what you say is true, so what, after all, I am only a Feng Shui master not a Chinese medicine master, and it is normal to make mistakes with medicine
Does this mean that the murderer is me? That’s unreasonable!”
“Don’t rush, I’m not finished yet!”
Lin Ran smiled lightly and continued.
“Previously at the Villa, when I found the wu sink wood you obstructed me in every way, and even lied that the wu sink wood was ordinary wood, and that was fine, but later I found that where one of the wu sink wood was, there was obvious loosening of the soil, apparently the money had been purposely checked before, and within the entire Villa, you were the only Feng Shui master, right, is there an ordinary person who has nothing to do with digging up wood for fun? ”
“You!”
“Don’t you! Later, I found the wu shen wood, sixteen pieces of wu shen wood fused and it was you who triggered its soul to attack me, right, you think I don’t know about your existence just because you are hiding outside?”
“Nonsense!”
Daoist Master Sequoia argued.
Lin Ran, however, sneered and continued.
“Just now, when I proposed to let the old man’s soul return to its place, you were again obstructing everything, and when the old man had just woken up, you wanted to leave, what explanation is there for that?”
“You can deny all of this, after all, there is no direct evidence to prove it, but all the sides can prove that you are highly suspect!”
Saying this, Lin Ran turned his head to look at Li Sheng and laughed.
“Sir Li Sheng, I have made it very clear, there is no need for me to say more about who is most suspicious, and besides, do you really know Daoist Master Sequoia?”
Li Sheng was stunned at his words, his eyebrows frowning slightly as he spoke.
“Not very well before, but in the future, I will know very well, within an hour, I will find out all the details about him, whether he is the murderer or not, we will know then!”
“Li Sheng you!”
Daoist Master Sequoia’s face sank at his words, followed by instantly turning cold, his sleeve robe waved violently, and at once the floating dust was flung at Li Sheng.
“Since you want to investigate me, then you should go to hell first!”
