Chapter 849 - 849 Independence

849 Independence

No one had expected that Lin Dazong would cause such a huge commotion the moment he returned.

Not to mention that he wanted to be a high-ranking official, he wasn’t even a scholar right now. He was still a student.

In the past, everyone had high hopes for him. After all, there were only two 13-14-year-old potential scholars in the entire village. The first one was, of course, Lin Mingqing.

However, this future scholar actually colluded with others to frame someone. Moreover, this person was his cousin.

In the past, everyone looked down on Lin Laosan’s family. However, everyone believed that his family would produce a scholar in the future and that everyone would benefit from it. The villagers were thus tolerant of them.

However, they didn’t expect that this man who hadn’t even passed the elementary scholar exam would have such a vicious mind and have the intention to harm others.

How could this be?

When the fake Daoist pointed out Lin Dazong, Lin Laosan’s family was stunned at first. However, because it involved the reputation of a scholar, their reaction was especially fast this time.

Just as everyone was confused, Lin Laosan’s face darkened. He pointed at the fake Daoist and scolded, ” you liar, stop talking nonsense! My Zong ‘Er has no enmity with you, so why did you frame him?”

Li Cuihua was also stunned. Then, she continued to display her unreasonable personality, pointing at the fake Daoist priest and Lin yuelan and scolding, ” Aiya, the kind are really bullied! My Zong ‘Er has only been back for a few days and doesn’t even have time to go out for activities, yet he’s been accused of harming people for no reason! Heavens, why are you so blind that you haven’t punished these liars?”

Li Cuihua really didn’t learn her lesson. After being taught a lesson by Lin yuelan a few times, why did she still go and make a scene and provoke Lin yuelan again and again?

However, she didn’t name anyone, so no one could say anything wrong about her.

She could have directed her anger at the fake priest but she had to scold Lin Yuelan.

Who knew what kind of lesson Lin yuelan would give li Cuihua?

Many people were waiting for Lin yuelan’s reaction.

Of course, these people were shocked at first when they heard that a fake Daoist priest was bribed to frame Lin yuelan, but they quickly regained their calm.

To them, if Lin yuelan was really a monster and this Daoist was a capable one, it would be best to burn her.

However, the truth was that Lin yuelan had been framed. They felt relieved at first, but then they continued to watch a show. They wanted to see what kind of lesson Lin yuelan would teach these people.

In fact, these people were like ostriches.

When they encountered something they were afraid of, they would immediately shrink their necks. When there was no danger, they would arrogantly move around, their heads held high.

Lin yuelan ignored Lin laosan’s anger and Li cuihua’s curses. Instead, she asked again to confirm, ” are you talking about these four people? Are there no other people?”

It seemed that third Lin’s family was fully aware that Lin Dazong had hired the fake Daoist priest. Otherwise, they would not have been so hesitant about the pot of Black dog’s blood just now.

The fake Daoist priest shook his head and said, ” no!”

Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” yes. You mentioned one with the surname Huang, one with the surname Yan, and two with the surname Lin. Then, are these four people Huang Youshan, the manager of Huang Ji medicine shop, Yan Lin, the landlord of the Lin family Village, and these two?” She pointed at Lin Dazong and Lin Ying Zi!

The fake Daoist priest said, ” I’m not sure about the person surnamed Huang, but you are right about the other three. However, I saw that she was very close to that Huang guy! At that time, when they came looking for me, I saw that she was holding the arm of that Huang person and was speaking coquettishly, as if she was that Huang guy’s concubine!”

The fake Daoist priest nodded and pointed at Ying Zi.

As soon as he finished speaking, it was as if a large stone had been thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

They couldn’t believe that Ying Zi hadn’t appeared for so long because she had become someone’s concubine.

Concubines would wear gold and silver, and they would wear brocade clothes and Jade. However, this was only in the case of rich families and they were very favored.

Under normal circumstances, the status of a concubine was the same as a servant.

People would rather be a wife of a humble family than a concubine of a noble family!

But Ying Zi actually went to be someone’s concubine?

There was another problem. How old was Ying Zi? she was only thirteen years old.

She wasn’t bad looking and had a choice to marry into a good family, so why did she have to become someone’s concubine?

“You’re talking nonsense!” Gu Sanniang ran out from the crowd, pointing at the fake Daoist and scolding him. As he spoke, she went up and gave the fake Daoist two slaps, showing her shrewdness.

After giving him two slaps, she was still not satisfied. She stepped forward and kicked the fake Daoist priest two more times, sending him to the ground.

Lin yuelan just looked at her coldly and didn’t stop her.

This fake Daoist priest indeed needed to be taught a lesson.

When li Cuihua saw Gu Sanniang go up to hit him, she was also angry and immediately went up to kick the fake priest. The more she kicked, the more vicious she became!

“you liar! How dare you harm my precious grandson! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”

Both of the fake Daoist priest’s hands had been broken by Lin yuelan, so he couldn’t defend himself at all. After being hit to the ground, he could only wail and shout, ” stop hitting me, stop hitting me …”

When the others saw this, they also suddenly wanted to join in the fun. After looking at each other, they immediately went up to beat the man up.

“you’re a liar. You’ve deceived us so much. You’ve really caused us a lot of harm. I’ll kill you …”

Lin yuelan looked at him coldly for a moment. Seeing that this fake Daoist was breathing very slowly, she immediately gave Lin Yiwei a look.

Lin Yiwei immediately shouted, ” stop! Are you guys trying to kill him?”

You have to pay with your life for killing someone.

Therefore, when they heard Lin Yiwei’s words, everyone’s movements stopped.

Only Gu Sanniang and Li Cuihua were still not satisfied and kept kicking the man.

Lin Yiwei shouted angrily, “If the two of you killed him, you would pay with your lives!”

Lin Yiwei took a look at the situation, and his sharp eyes immediately scanned the surroundings. He said sternly, ” will killing this man be enough to vent your anger? He was simply a fool! It’s obvious that you have a grudge in your hearts, and this fake Daoist priest was just a convenient target! Although he’s in the wrong, he doesn’t deserve to die!”

Li Cuihua and Gu Sanniang stopped in their tracks when they heard that.

After that, Lin Yiwei said to Lin yuelan guiltily, ” Lan ‘Er, the villagers have done something stupid. I apologize to you on their behalf! Don’t take it to heart and forgive them this once, okay?”

However, he didn’t expect Lin yuelan to shake her head.

Seeing Lin yuelan shake her head, everyone’s heart thumped. They thought that Lin yuelan didn’t want to forgive them. If she didn’t forgive them, it meant that Lin yuelan would probably take revenge on them, and they wouldn’t be able to get any benefits from her.

...

If Lin yuelan were really a demon, after she was subdued and burned to death, every family in the village would more or less get a share of the huge wealth she left behind.

If Lin yuelan weren’t a demon, she would continue to offer them easy and high-paying jobs. Who wouldn’t like that?

However, the premise was that Lin yuelan didn’t mind the whole incident. But Lin Yuelan wasn’t that generous…

Lin Yiwei was also shocked. He immediately asked in confusion, “Lan ‘Er, you…”

Lin yuelan didn’t want to make things difficult for Lin Yiwei. As the village chief, he certainly didn’t want anything to happen to any of the villagers. However, what the villagers did to Lin yuelan was really disappointing.

To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that he and Lin yuelan were close, he really wouldn’t have asked Lin yuelan to forgive them.

However, he had never expected that Lin yuelan really didn’t want to live in harmony with the villagers anymore.

Lin yuelan shook her head and told him the truth, ” Grandpa village chief, you’ve seen it too. Other than you and a few uncles, no one else likes me. So, rather than making things difficult for you, it’s better to just cut my relationship with this village off cleanly!”

Lin Yiwei was surprised and confused. “Lan ‘Er, what do you mean?”

Lin yuelan said, ” Grandpa village chief, I want to be independent and set up another village and ancestral shrine!”

This meant that she wouldn’t be considered a villager of the Lin family Village anymore.

...

In the future, no matter if she was a demon or not, these people would have no right or reason to control her.

It would relieve a lot of pressure on Lin Yiwei.

This was killing two birds with one stone.

When these words came out, everyone was shocked and even more incredulous!

An independent village with an ancestral shrine?

How dare a child like her ask for such a thing?
