He wanted to slap him, but he couldn’t do it under the gaze of so many villagers. Perhaps with these villagers around, Rascal Chen suddenly realized that Liu Hun didn’t dare to lay a hand on him easily, much less beat him in front of these people, giving him a lot of courage. Because he always believed that Liu Hun would not strike, giving him great courage and opportunity! Today, here, he was going to use his strength to show everyone that he and his mother were the true protectors of the village, whom they should worship! “Slap!” A medicine jar fell to the ground, and a strong medicinal smell wafted from it. Looking at the medicine jar, Liu Hun frowned slightly. He already smelled a peculiar scent in it. This smell could be distinguished from other medicinal scents, and anyone who had smelled herbs could detect something unusual. Rascal Chen shouted angrily, “Smell it yourself, isn’t this the smell I was talking about! You think I don’t know? You added some strange things to those herbs! That’s what harmed my mother!” Hearing his words, Liu Hun crouched down and picked up the medicine jar, placing it in front of himself. Being closer to the jar only confirmed his suspicion that someone had tampered with it. Besides, he had been in the cornfield all day. Where would he have had time to treat people? “Rascal Chen, I’ve told you before! Did you think I wouldn’t know? Who allowed you to touch my medicine? Who gave you the courage? Moreover, my prescription was never written down, you’re flailing around to frame me, did you really think I wouldn’t find out?” Rascal Chen grew anxious, already sensing the increasingly strange looks from others. “Fake, it’s all fake. Don’t believe him, everyone!” While speaking, Rascal Chen took a deep breath, “Liu Hun, since you’re so skilled, why don’t you drink it yourself? I reckon, you’re just a coward, denying the herbs you gave my mother, and now you don’t even dare drink your own medicine?” “Yeah, after all, these herbs were dug up by Liu Hun himself, if he doesn’t dare to drink them...” “Tsk tsk tsk, I never expected that Liu Hun would be this kind of person.” “This is no joke, if Rascal Chen keeps after him, it won’t be a laughing matter.” Listening to the villagers, Liu Hun’s mouth twitched a few times. He had already wanted to deal with Rascal Chen, but was held back by the other villagers. Looking at the medicine jar in front of him, smelling the scent from inside, Liu Hun made a move that surprised everyone. He actually drank the entire contents of the medicine jar in front of him. A stream of white air suddenly surged within him, sublimating the potion in his stomach until it quietly dissipated. Everyone was shocked, realizing this was clearly a scheme Rascal Chen concocted to retaliate against Liu Hun. What Liu Hun did was simply bringing trouble upon himself. A green-haired hooligan beside Rascal Chen whispered, “Boss, look, this idiot drank the medicine we tampered with, maybe he’ll get the runs for three or four days, hehehe.” Rascal Chen smirked, “Serves him right for messing with me!” Liu Hun finished drinking, and the jar suddenly smashed on the ground, the fragments scattering. “I’ve finished drinking it, and I’m still fine, Rascal Chen, your scheme probably won’t succeed!” “Oh? Is that so? Why rush? I’ll smoke a cigarette now, and once it’s gone, the effects will show, right?” Rascal Chen giggled, lighting a cigarette with one hand. “Alright, I’ll wait for a cigarette then.” Liu Hun smiled helplessly, turning around. Seeing his uncle’s anxious expression, he murmured, “Uncle, go inside and get me a needle, today I’ll expose Rascal Chen and his mother’s scheme in front of the whole village, showing everyone their true colors!” Uncle nodded and went inside. Rascal Chen chuckled, sitting on the chair and crossing his legs, “I want to see what kind of tricks you’ll pull out?” After a moment, Liu Hun remained unharmed, while Rascal Chen’s cigarette had long been extinguished. The crowd sighed, could it be that Liu Hun was really a deity sent to save them? Liu Hun laughed, “Now that you’ve finished smoking, and I’m fine. How would you like me to beat you? Stripped naked or what?” “This...” Rascal Chen was speechless. The cigarette in his hand was indeed smoked, yet he couldn’t allow Liu Hun to take charge, otherwise all his efforts would be wasted. “You... this medicine, didn’t you say it would work immediately after taking? Why? Why isn’t there any reaction now?” Rascal Chen yelled angrily at the green-haired hooligan next to him. The green-haired hooligan said begrudgingly, “I did test it, yes? I... I even tried it on the old Wang family’s cow in the neighboring village. It proved that the cow collapsed in seconds. This... this, I don’t know either.” Rascal Chen stood up, kicking the chair behind him, “If this doesn’t work, don’t be afraid! We can try forcing him! I just don’t believe this kid can turn the world upside down!” The green-haired hooligan nodded, Rascal Chen’s aura was compelling, dazzling like an idol in his eyes. “Liu Hun! You bastard, so what if you drank some medicine? Look at my mother! See what she’s become? It’s all because of your medicine, if you can’t cure her today, even if it means breaking the pot to sell the iron, even demolishing your shabby temple and home, it won’t be enough to compensate!” Uncle handed a silver needle to Liu Hun, fuming at Rascal Chen’s words, “Rascal Chen, don’t go too far! Everyone needs a basic decency, Liu Hun already said, it was medicine you found yourself!” Rascal Chen chuckled, tilting his head, “I don’t care about that, all I care about is whether my mother can get better!” Today, he was determined to make his stand! He didn’t believe that Liu Hun could overturn everything alone. Moreover, he had brought many people today, so even five against one, chances were in his favor. Liu Hun smiled helplessly, already noticing the movement of the one-eyed old lady’s fingers on the mat. With that motion, he understood that the one-eyed old lady was obviously pretending to be asleep. However, years of performing spirit and ghost tricks made her seem like she was half a step into the grave as she lay on the mat. “Uncle, enough with the words. Before all the village elders and folks, I, Liu Hun, will reveal the true facade of this mother-and-son duo in front of everyone. Otherwise, this will impact my shabby temple’s business in the future and make many suspect that the herbs I collect are poison!”
