Volume 2: The Source of Life Chapter 5 I am a fierce girl named Bie Li

  Bang!

  Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the lacquer forest. A black shadow was tripped by something and fell to the ground with a thud, motionless.

  I emerged from the darkness, bent down and pulled out the bone-picking knife from Tiger Brother's throat. Looking at his face filled with an angry expression of disbelief, I couldn't help but smile wryly and crack a joke: "Don't be angry, want revenge? Wait another nine years and you'll have another chance."

  ……

  The car sped down the road, and Mother was safely rescued, but I couldn't feel happy no matter what.

  The bandit's performance was about the same as I remembered, which means that Lin Muxian's arrival didn't change my original life, she only changed a small part related to her, she wasn't my butterfly.

  Driving silently, my mother sat in the back seat, looking at me with suspicion.

  My heart skipped a beat, I had been indifferent to family affection for a long time, but I also didn't want to hurt someone who had always cared for me. If my mother found out that her obedient son was actually a bloodthirsty killer, it would be enough to drive her mad.

  So I slammed on the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road.

  "What's wrong?" her mother asked with a tense face.

  "There's nothing," I said in a calm tone, "After you go back, just say that you were rescued by a noble person. As for the process, you can tell them the truth. If they ask you about the lock, just say you don't know and that you went in with your eyes closed. Did you hear clearly?"

  "Who would ask me these things?" The mother was still a bit unclear about the situation.

  "Police." I looked at the time and said: "Do you remember clearly?"

  My mother looked at me with a bit of fear in her eyes and nodded slightly, "Got it."

  "Alright, get off the bus then."

  "Huh?"

  "I'm only responsible for saving people, not sending them home."

  I dropped my mother off at a place about thirty minutes away from home and drove to a secluded seaside. I changed back into my own clothes, poured gasoline on everything else and burned it all, including the bloody boning knife, which I threw far out to sea.

  I dropped down the car and walked straight along the beach. One by one, deep footprints were washed away by the sea water, becoming shallower and shallower until they disappeared.

  And I also left the small boat 100 meters away and went ashore.

  When I got home, it was already bright outside. I bought a bunch of soy milk and fried dough sticks from the street vendors and swaggered into the house.

  It was still five or six minutes before his mother came back.

  "Come on, everyone has worked hard, let's have something to eat."

  It's still early now, and there aren't many people awake yet. Everyone sees me being so enthusiastic but doesn't find it strange, after all they don't know what I'm usually like.

  I put breakfast on the table and went back to my room, I was exhausted from tossing and turning all night, I still have to go to school later, so I need a nap.

  Not long after the mother came back, everyone was stunned. The father tightly hugged the mother and said with a full of guilt: "It's all my fault, I let you suffer."

  The mother looked at her father with a bewildered expression, who had been in a bad temper for days and had received too many frights.

  "Alas, I actually know who did it." "The money hasn't even arrived yet, how could he let you go?"

  Sniffling, Mother slowly said what I had previously told her.

  ……

  The lunch break is often a happy time for classmates, especially those who don't like reading. There are people sleeping, skipping class and causing trouble, hiding in corners to talk about romance, all sorts of people.

  I slept through half a day's classes and woke up at noon. On the way to class, many classmates saw me but didn't show any surprise. My mother being kidnapped and rescued was just a topic of conversation for a day or two, after that they got bored with it.

  In front of the teaching building, far away, I found a group of people gathered at the entrance of the classroom. They were all disheveled, chewing gum in their mouths, blowing bubbles without spitting them out, but instead sucking them back in, making loud popping sounds.

  "Hey, Fang Cheng, I heard there's a beautiful girl in your class?"

  As I walked through the corridor, a tall and sturdy young man blocked my way. Judging from his gaze at me, I should have known him, but I really had no impression of him.

  It can be seen from this that in my previous reincarnation, he was an unimportant role.

  "Uh-huh, here comes one." I didn't even bother arguing with him and just went along with what he said.

  "Oh? I was thinking of finding her to have a chat, you don't mind, do you?"

  "I?" I hesitated for a moment, then said: "I don't mind."

  As soon as he said this, the group of people was clearly stunned for a moment. I saw that they didn't move, so I sidled past him and walked into the classroom.

  Everyone in the classroom saw me coming through the window. Seeing me come in, Gao Pangzi and Wang Fujun immediately came up to greet me, and even Cui Hongyi's eyes were full of concern.

  "Cheng Ge, what does that kid want with you?"

  I looked at them in surprise, "What's wrong, what happened?"

  Wang Fujun took a deep breath, rubbed his hands and said: "Cheng Ge, if we're brothers, let's say it out loud. If there's something going on, the three of us will face it together." Gao Pangzi was also a bit tense on that side, but he nodded firmly.

  I'm getting curious now, and asked: "Who is that guy?"

  As soon as I spoke, I regretted it. Gao Pangzi looked at me with a Martian-like gaze, and Wang Fujun stupidly touched my forehead, and the two of them said in unison: "Cheng Ge, what did that kid say to scare you like this?"

  "Hmm," I fell silent for a moment, then changed the subject: "You two tell me everything you know about him, so I can grasp his weaknesses and deal with him."

  Now that you mention it, these two kids started talking non-stop.

  The situation is actually very simple, from their narrative, I can summarize it in one sentence: "This bad boy is called Du Hongchao, his uncle is a well-known big brother on the road, and he has some conflicts with me usually."

  It's that simple.

  After listening to this, I was a bit puzzled. Why are they so nervous about a small mixed-blood? After thinking for half a day, I finally understood that with the family background of Gao Pangzi or Wang Fojun, as the nephew of a big brother in the underworld, there is no need to be afraid at all.

  Perhaps due to the influence of many movies, at their age, they have an inexplicable respect for people in the underworld, which is why they feel intimidated by Du Hongchao.

  Take Gao Pangzi for example, even if he saw the police chief, he would definitely be dismissive and disdainful.

  That's kids' logic for you!

  Once I figured that out, I lost all interest in Du Hongchao. But just then, a group of delinquents led by Du Hongchao swaggered in.

  Gao Pangzi and Wang Fujun were a bit nervous, both standing on either side of me, with vigilant expressions.

  Du Hongchao waved his hand at me and said with a strange smile: "Fang Cheng, thank you for letting us have it!" After he finished speaking, the group of people behind him also smiled strangely, looking at me with contempt in their eyes, as if I was the one who had brought a pervert into my own home.

  I indifferently curled my lips and watched them walk towards the back row of the classroom, all the way to Lin Muxian's desk.

  "Wow!" A soft murmur rose in the classroom.

  Gao Pangzi's face was resolute as he gritted his teeth and said: "Cheng Ge, just now he was..."

  Before he finished speaking, Wang Fujun rubbed his fists and said: "Cheng Ge, we can't tolerate this anger, let's fight it out, after eighteen years, another good fellow will emerge."

  I glanced at them faintly and really wanted to say: "If you want to die, you don't need eighteen years, nine years will do."

  At this time, Du Hongchao's side started.

  "Hehe, hello, I'm Du Hongchao. I heard you don't have any relatives or friends here, so after school I'll give you a ride home."

  "Get out." Lin Mu Hong said coldly, looking at him with a single glance.

  "Whoa......" The crowd gasped again, thinking in their hearts: This Lin Mouxian is really bold, daring to be so fierce to Du Hongchao.

  Du Hongchao smiled and said: "Still a spicy girl."

  The crowd burst into laughter: "Brother Du, she's just shy, but in her heart, she's already over the moon."

  "Alright alright, come on Du Ge, give us a kiss to entertain the brothers."

  This guy was openly flirting, but not a single person in Class 3-6 dared to make a sound. Even the class monitor, Lin Hongyi, was biting her teeth tightly, unable to utter the words "If you guys continue to be rowdy, I'll report it to the teacher."

  At this time, Lin Muxian suddenly stood up and walked out of the classroom. Everyone followed her footsteps with their hearts in their throats, wondering what she wanted to do?

  I don't know if I misunderstood or what, but I felt that when Lin Muxian walked past me sideways, he gave me a glance that was extremely resentful.

  No mistake, she who was always indifferent gave me a resentful glance.

  What does she want? My mind was racing, asking me for help or blaming me for letting her go? Hmm, it's been a long time since I've had a romance, what is she getting at?

  It's unlike her to make such an unusual move with her usual indifference.

  Did she really take a fancy to me?

  It shouldn't be like this!

  When it comes to dealing with Lin Muxian's affairs, I have to be extremely cautious, heaven knows what changes a single move can bring about.

  "Lin Mei Mei, don't run!" Du Hongchao shouted in a disgusting tone as he chased after her from behind.

  Thinking of that resentful gaze, I involuntarily took a step forward and stood in front of Du Hongchao. This time I made a good impression, and my relationship with her has taken another step forward; can't I ask her about the purpose and cause of her coming here?

  But when I saw that thread of haughtiness and coldness in Lin Moxian's eyes, my chest which had just puffed out immediately shrunk back.

  No way, this little girl doesn't seem to be in distress, that gaze is definitely not a cry for help... Hmm... Is she setting me up? That's right, she just wants to see me play the hero and then get caught by Du Hongchao.

  Hehe...... I'd rather not. Can't help but say, living a bit longer does have its benefits.

  "Fang Cheng, are you looking for trouble?" Du Hongchao growled in a low voice as he saw me blocking the way.

  When he saw that I was going to fight, the group of people behind him were all excited, and Gao Pangzi and Wang Fulin also stood by my side with great righteousness.

  I hastily waved my hand and said: "Don't look for it, don't look for it. I came out to tell you: Come on!"

  After saying that, I took advantage of the movement to take a peek at Lin Muxian. Sure enough, her eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, but it was quickly replaced by disdain. Generally speaking, any normal man who receives that kind of weak and helpless resentful gaze from her would not be able to help but feel righteous indignation and draw his sword to assist her, unless he is not a man.

  I am a man, …… but I don't want to be.

  Lin Miao Xian didn't leave either, and instead turned back. He walked up to Du Hong Chao and coldly grunted again: "Scram!"

  Everyone was stunned by this repeated and unpredictable behavior, Du Hongchao was also confused, unable to understand what was happening. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Muxian lost his patience, seeing him blocking the way, his slender hand touched his chest, without making a sound, Du Hongchao's entire body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

  "Come bother me again, and I'll break your dog legs." After saying that, Lin Muxian walked back to his own position, sat down, propped up his chin, and gazed out the window.

  The classroom was eerily quiet, without a single sound, and everyone was stunned. It seemed as if they could see a signboard on the top of their heads that read: "No gods or ghosts allowed".

  But as I looked at Du Hongchao's disheveled appearance, I couldn't help but laugh. I had expected her to be trouble, but not in this way.

  In terms of martial arts, I've forgotten a lot of things, but general knowledge is still remembered. The effect just now can only be the inch power in internal family boxing, between square inches, splitting stones and breaking rocks.

  But just now, with my eyesight, I saw very clearly that at the moment when Lin Miao Xian's slender hand touched Du Hong Chao's chest, a white aura was circulating on her palm, and it was this white aura that sent Du Hong Chao flying, not internal power.

  Following her fingers upwards, apart from a bracelet on her wrist, I didn't find anything unusual.

  Looking closely at the bracelet again, it was black and shiny, like gold but not gold, somewhat like a mixture of inkstone and metal, however, it didn't seem to have any hidden mechanisms.

  Where did that fleeting white light come from?

  This inexplicable phenomenon has left me reeling. Could it be that Lin Mu Xian's sudden appearance really has a great deal to do with me?

  At this moment, I finally made up my mind. From now on, I will spare no effort to treat this change with full enthusiasm. Can't be afraid of trouble and make one's behavior appear hasty anymore.

  "Alright, let's be positive from now on, can't be lazy anymore."

  Through constant self-reflection, I came up with a great idea.
