Chapter 62: Transaction

  One by one, strange and familiar objects were turned out by Han Li, sorted into two piles according to their suspiciousness, and placed aside.

  He was gradually amazed that Mo Daifu had a lot of miscellaneous things on his body, many of which were deadly at first glance.

  A tube of blood-sealing sleeve arrows.

  A packet of poisonous sand soaked in snake venom.

  A dozen or so razor-sharp boomerangs.

  ……

  As the items increased, Han Li's breathing also became somewhat urgent. The more he searched carefully, the more frightened he felt.

  It was only then that he realized how lucky he had been when he fought with Mo Dafu earlier. If the other party hadn't just wanted to capture him alive, he would have probably died long ago.

  Wiping away the cold sweat on his face, Han Li self-mockingly said: "A living person like myself was actually scared out of my wits by a dead man's things."

  Finally finished searching, Han Li began to study one by one the pile of items he thought were suspicious.

  "This little bottle smells terrible, it seems like some kind of antidote, should be fine."

  "This strange weapon looks like a small wheel, although I don't know what it's used for, but it probably has nothing to do with the giant, let's put it aside first."

  "As for this sachet..."

  Han Li was fiddling with some objects, muttering to himself excitedly. At this moment, he held in his hand an ordinary sachet embroidered with white silk flowers.

  Logically, such an ordinary sachet shouldn't arouse anyone's suspicion. But Han Li thought that having such a common item on an ordinary person was normal, but for someone like Mo Dafu, a formidable figure, to have it was unusual.

  Han Li held it up with one hand and weighed it, feeling that it was very light, probably not containing any heavy objects. He then pinched it again, feeling a texture like paper, as if there were pages of books hidden inside.

  Han Li's spirits lifted and he opened the sachet, unsurprisingly pulling out a few pieces of paper from within.

  He took a glance, and it was Dr. Mo's own handwriting, so he had some confidence in his heart. After taking a closer look, Han Li was shocked to find that it was actually a letter left by Dr. Mo for himself.

  Han Li was somewhat perplexed, and his curiosity grew. He picked up the few sheets of letter paper and carefully browsed through them.

  After finishing, Han Li let out a long sigh of suppressed air and furrowed his brow, becoming deeply worried.

  He walked with his hands clasped behind his back, like an old man, and began to walk unconsciously. Every two steps he took, he stopped, thinking about something, then hesitated, took a few more steps, and stopped again to continue thinking.

  In this way, Han Li unknowingly became like a donkey in a mill, circling around the corpse of Mo Daifu without stopping. His face was unpredictable, sometimes red and sometimes white, revealing his inner turmoil and loss of control.

  This restless and uncertain appearance actually happened on Han Li's body. If Lei Fei Yu knew about it, he would probably burst out laughing loudly.

  Han Li became like this because the will left him with a very bad message and a difficult choice. The antidote for the "Corpse Insect Pill" was actually poisonous, a rare and insidious poison. According to the letter, this poison could only be cured by the "Warm Yang Treasure Jade" passed down in his family, and there was no other way to cure it, not even with the legendary detoxification sacred medicines.

  So on these few pages, Mo Daifu clearly told Han Li that this will and the previous vicious curse were his last resort in case he failed to seize power or encountered any unexpected event, so that one of the ten possibilities would be Han Li's survival. For his own sake after death, he planned to make a simple deal with Han Li in the letter, which would make both parties happy, not only could he eliminate his own worries, but also let Han Li gain a large sum of wealth and countless benefits.

  As for whether Yu Zaitong would be the last to survive, Mo Dafu didn't even consider this point. In his letter, he spoke of him in a contemptuous tone, thinking that not only was he born with a cold and thin temperament, but also greedy for life and afraid of death, having only a little cleverness. Even if he were an immortal cultivator, he wouldn't have any great prospects. The one who would laugh to the end definitely wouldn't be him.

  When Han Li saw this, he couldn't help but smile wryly in his heart. Mo Daifu had been so meticulous and calculating, yet he probably hadn't expected that in the end, he himself would fall into the trap of someone he normally looked down on. If not for the fact that Han Li had concealed his true progress in the Long Spring Technique, it was likely that he would have ended up like Mo Daifu, allowing Yu Zitong to reap the benefits effortlessly. Of course, this was also related to Mo Daifu's own state of mind, which had been clouded by his beautiful dream of becoming an immortal. It seemed that no matter what kind of cultivator one was, they couldn't be too careless.

  In the letter, Mo Dafu proposed a simple transaction. He asked Han Li to visit his home once within one or two years. Firstly, the poison he had ingested would take effect after two years, and secondly, he had a wife, concubines, daughters, and a considerable family business at home. Although Mo Dafu had made many arrangements before leaving and released a smokescreen to deceive people, if he didn't return for a long time, his subordinates and enemies would likely become suspicious and harm his loved ones. Therefore, Han Li also had to hurry to protect his wife and children, settle them down properly, and ideally let them live a peaceful life away from the troubles of the jianghu.

  As compensation for his past grievances against Han Li, and as a reward for Han Li's help, he is willing to give one of his daughters to Han Li as his wife, with a dowry of half of his entire wealth and the "Warm Sun Treasure Jade".

  Mo Dafu had already handed over the treasure to his wife before leaving, specifying that it was specially made for their daughter's dowry when she got married. Therefore, Han Li thought of his own life and did not want to marry, but he had to go through with the wedding.

  Of course, he also made it clear that his enemies and foes were very powerful, and his subordinates were not easy to control. With Han Li's current abilities, he might not be able to cope with them directly. Therefore, he specially arranged two false identities for Han Li in the secret compartment of his residence, leaving behind tokens and handwritten certificates, allowing Han Li to choose a suitable identity himself. At the same time, he also listed the names of trusted personnel, suspicious characters, and enemies, as well as details that required careful attention.

  Finally, as proof of his sincerity in leaving this testament, he appended the control and summoning methods for "Gigas Iron Slave" and "Cloud Winged Bird".

  What made Han Li somewhat perplexed was that the other party vaguely pointed out that Tienu was a soulless and spiritless corpse, just a walking dead body, and his original true soul had long been reincarnated. Letting Han Li see him didn't have to be sad about it. This made Han Li somewhat bewildered, could it be that he looked like someone with rich emotions?

  However, even if we put aside the poisoning incident, facing such a large sum of wealth, to say that Han Li was not tempted would be a lie. He had always been very sensitive to money and was really interested in the transaction proposed by Mo Dafu before his death. As for marrying his daughter as his wife, this also gave Han Li, who was at the age of first love, an unusual feeling in his heart. After all, just looking at Mo Dafu's original appearance, one could know that his daughter would not be ugly.

  But the risks that come with it are not to be underestimated, one misstep and you might even lose your own life. The enemies who can be considered as opponents by Mo Daifu are not so easy to deal with!

  Mo Daifu, who had arranged everything behind his back without a hitch, used the links of life, beauty and great wealth to tie the safety of Han Li and his wife and daughter together, making it seem that Han Li would have no choice but to swallow this honey-coated poison pill with a bitter face.
