93: Chapter 93 Found the Right One 93: Chapter 93 Found the Right One Li Si’er jumped like a cat that had licked chili, nearly three feet high. The poisoned needle hidden in his shoe sole pricked his heel, and he knew he wouldn’t survive the day. Li Si’er’s wife, Cui Hua, rushed over to hold her husband, hurriedly took off his cloth shoes, and then pointed the shoes at Liu Hun, shouting hysterically, “Murderer! You’ll die a horrible death! You dog! You dare to kill in broad daylight! Have you lost your conscience?” Liu Hun sneered coldly and pointed at Li Si’er, saying, “Is he dead? Let him die for me to see!” Cui Hua froze at these words, turned around, and saw that Li Si’er was still jumping. She quickly held him down and asked, “Si’er! Si’er! Are you okay? What’s going on?” After being called by his wife for a while, Li Si’er regained his senses and smiled as if nothing had happened, saying, “It seems... it seems I’m fine! The poisoned needle...” Seeing Li Si’er about to slip up, Cui Hua quickly covered his mouth and whispered, “Lie down and pretend to be dead! He brought this on himself! We need to use this chance to scam him again!” With a twist of his crafty mind, Li Si’er wailed and tried to lie down... but couldn’t lie down! “What’s wrong with you? Lie down! Close your eyes! Why are you standing there like a post?” Cui Hua became anxious and hurriedly urged her husband. Li Si’er felt as if he’d been possessed and just couldn’t lie down. He couldn’t close his eyes at all. This was naturally due to Liu Hun’s Qi at work. He knew that those people had put something in the shoes, which was why he howled as if his father had died when he put them on earlier. He thought about it and then loudly said to the onlookers, “Ladies and gentlemen, have a look! Does Li Si’er look like he’s in trouble? Are these cloth shoes poisonous or not?” “Hey! It seems he’s perfectly fine! Is this group trying to scam us? Why did he howl as soon as he put the shoes on and now just stand there?” “Exactly! Look, nothing happened when you wore them, but it doesn’t work when your wife wears them? If this isn’t a scam, then what is?” “Maybe it takes a while for the effect to show! The shoe seller shouldn’t be too pleased yet.” “...” Various speculations spread, and Li Si’er, seeing himself unable to move, became a bit panicky. He knew that the Scorpion Tail Needle Vine would release toxins immediately upon piercing the flesh, paralyzing a person in under two minutes. They’d drop dead as if there were no difference. But why was he standing there like a wooden stake, unable to move? “Do you have anything else to say?!” Liu Hun glared at Li Si’er and asked. “What... what are you rushing for? Rushing to be reincarnated? Let’s wait two minutes! If you’ve got the guts, we’ll wait!” Li Si’er shouted back at Liu Hun, stubbornly trying to lie down but just couldn’t, which was frustrating beyond belief. “I see you won’t shed a tear until you see the coffin!” Liu Hun sneered at Li Si’er and then loudly announced to the people below, “He said we should wait two minutes! So today, we’ll wait with him for these two minutes! Let’s see if he dies from wearing these shoes!” With that, Liu Hun folded his arms and waited leisurely like a hunter. “What’s wrong with you? Are you possessed or something? Lie down! What if we’re exposed?” Cui Hua anxiously reached out to pinch Li Si’er but dared not speak loudly. “Stupid woman! Why are you pinching me? I can’t move! Maybe it’s the poison! I can’t move because of it!” Li Si’er was anxious too but simply couldn’t do anything. After a while, someone from the crowd shouted, “It’s been two minutes!” Liu Hun laughed coldly and approached Li Si’er step by step, demanding, “Li Si’er?! What do you have to say now?! Who sent you to make trouble and frame me?! How much did they pay you?!” Li Si’er couldn’t figure out why nothing was happening, and he was unable to move. Seeing Liu Hun get closer, fear gripped him, but he couldn’t retreat. “Speak!” Liu Hun yelled at Li Si’er. Li Si’er suddenly felt his legs go weak but still couldn’t kneel. As he opened his mouth to speak, the sharp-tongued Cui Hua suddenly rushed over, standing in front of Li Si’er and pointing at Liu Hun’s nose, “What do you want? Killing one person isn’t enough? Do you want to hit someone too? Is there no law? Oh heavens! The murderer wants to hit someone again! Help! Save a poor old mother!” Seeing that she couldn’t count on Li Si’er, Cui Hua resorted to making a scene on the stage, crying and rolling on the ground, creating a spectacle more dramatic than any play. Liu Hun, unable to lay a hand on a woman, watched her performance. After a few minutes, someone in the crowd suddenly yelled, “The trick is exposed, and they’re starting to act shamelessly! Get off the stage! We want to see the show! Get off!” It was, of course, a disciple of the Lin Family class who shouted. Once his voice rang out, people realized this woman was just making a scene, and it wasn’t as interesting as the opera. So they started to agree. “Get off! Get off! Get off...” As the woman listened to the crowd’s shouting, she realized that continuing like this wouldn’t get results. Without results, there’d be no money. Reluctantly, she got up from the stage, snot and tears on her face, and yelled at the crowd, “My mother is dead! If he didn’t kill her, who did?! What are you shouting about? Whoever shouts will pay with their life for my mother!” The villagers still feared the dead somewhat, so they immediately quieted when they heard her. Liu Hun saw that the woman stopped being hysterical and switched to another tactic, so he approached her and asked, “You’re saying I killed your mother, right?” “Nonsense! Who else could it be? My mother couldn’t have killed herself! I’m telling you! Either you pay with your life or with money!” The woman, hands on her hips, growled at Liu Hun. Liu Hun chuckled coldly, ignored her, and walked straight to the old lady, leaned down, and touched her. Li Si’er and the woman exchanged glances. They didn’t know what Liu Hun intended to do, but they were not afraid of anything he could do, so they stood there, watching him. Liu Hun slowly turned his body and quickly pinched the old lady’s nose and mouth. Qi Force was drawn back from Li Si’er’s body and immediately entered the old lady. Li Si’er and Cui Hua saw Liu Hun’s little maneuver, and their hearts tightened. As soon as Li Si’er realized he could move, he rushed forward, but it was too late. Before they could reach the old lady, she yelled, “Oh heavens!” and, woken up by Liu Hun, shouted and jumped from the stretcher. “You little rascal! How dare you pinch an old...” The old lady was cursing Liu Hun when she realized she was supposed to be dead and couldn’t get up or speak. Immediately, she yelled, “Help, murder!” and fell back, playing dead again. Liu Hun repeated his tactic on the old lady’s pressure point. At this point, Li Si’er and the woman rushed over and pushed Liu Hun aside. The woman, angry, shouted, “Murderer! You damned thing! Killing in front of everyone! Is there no law?! Murdering in broad daylight!” Liu Hun scornfully glanced at the woman, silently counting, one... two... three... “Oh! It’s numbing! Numb...” The old lady couldn’t pretend anymore and flipped up, rubbing her pressure point and crying out in pain. “Hey! Wasn’t your mother dead? How is she alive now? This is strange! The dead can come back to life!” “Did the shoe seller save your mother? Aren’t you going to thank him? Aren’t you going to pay him?” “Their trick is uncovered! Go home! Stop making a fool of yourself!” “...” The crowd hooted and jeered at Li Si’er and his lot, grinning and cursing. Cui Hua shot a sidelong glance at the old lady and couldn’t help but scold, “Why did you jump up?” “I don’t know how it happened. That man woke me up and then pinched my pressure point. It was too painful and numbing to bear,” the old lady explained helplessly. “We must get that money! If we can’t do it with words, we’ll use force! We have to ruin his business here! Li Si’er, let them go!” The woman urged Li Si’er. Li Si’er immediately summoned his courage and pointed at Liu Hun, saying, “Shoe seller! If you dare, don’t run! Let’s play a tougher game!” Liu Hun casually clasped his hands behind his back, looked at Li Si’er, and said, “Come on! I’ll play any way you want!” Then he called Xiao Fang over and exchanged for a new pair of cloth shoes. He turned to the crowd and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, you’ve seen the shoes I sell. They don’t harm or kill people. This shameless group is just trying to scam! Now I’ll put on my shoes and show you a modern version of ‘Battle Heroes’!” Liu Hun said, brushing the sole of his shoes, “Please, dear folks, watch closely. See the power of my cloth shoes!” “Pah! You’re just bragging about your own wares! Later, I’ll knock your teeth out! Get him!” Li Si’er finished, directing five thugs to surround Liu Hun. Seeing the five burly men on stage, the spectators knew there’d be trouble. But hearing Liu Hun speak so lightly, they were eager to see the excitement. As a salesman, Xiao Fang quickly understood Liu Hun’s intention. He knew Liu Hun didn’t want the fight to scare people away; if the crowd scattered, today would be ruined. So he immediately found Master Lin and asked him to have the most rousing percussion beat started. Lin Shanhu, having witnessed Liu Hun’s skills, knew Liu Hun would win without a doubt. He picked up the erhu himself and led the percussion, calling out, “Let’s play ‘Ambush on All Sides’ for the masters!”
