Chapter 107 Have you thought it through?
Lin Yue'er's pupils dilated in shock, her heart pounding like a tsunami. What happened? She had only gone to cook some porridge, how did it turn out like this?
She stood at Lin Fan's door, dumbfounded.
A beautiful young woman with exquisite features wore a light green ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) and a thin veil draped over her body. The veil accentuated her fair and graceful shoulders, creating a unique and alluring effect.
What a beautiful person! Lin Yue'er thought to herself, though her hands looked a little strange.
But what shocked Lin Yue'er was that this stunningly beautiful, voluptuous young woman, exuding a mature charm, was excitedly embracing Lin Fan. Lin Yue'er felt as if the sky had fallen, and tears welled up in her eyes again. She had imagined that one day her little Fan brother would like someone else, but seeing this scene unfold before her eyes, the heart-wrenching feeling was unimaginable.
However, Sun Ruolan quickly let go of Lin Fan, turned around and hugged Chen Ergou tightly. Chen Ergou was caught in her arms and didn't know where to put his hands. His face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.
While holding it, Sun Ruolan kept jumping up and down, saying repeatedly, "It can move! It can move! Thank you so much!"
Before Lin Yue'er could react, Sun Ruolan had already jumped into Niu Dadan's arms. Unlike the two people in front of her, Sun Ruolan bounced up like a koala, and Niu Dadan naturally supported her entire body with his large hands. Sun Ruolan even felt that this wasn't enough, and started kissing him wildly on the face like a chick pecking at rice, leaving a trail of lipstick marks.
Lin Yue'er was completely bewildered, her emotions like a rollercoaster ride, utterly confused about what was happening. She simply breathed a sigh of relief, realizing it wasn't directed at Brother Xiao Fan.
At first, Sun Ruolan's hand miraculously regained some sensation. No one knew why, but no one cared. As long as it recovered, who cares!
Lin Fan took out his sickle and lightly tapped her hand. After a sharp pain, Sun Ruolan's hand was completely healed. This thrilled Sun Ruolan, leading to the scene just now.
Sun Ruolan was never from a wealthy family; she used to play in the mud with Niu Dandan when they were kids. It was only after becoming a wealthy man's concubine and that so-called saintess that she got used to always putting on airs.
Lin Fan also sighed that the world was not as feudal as it seemed in some aspects, or that the feudal society he learned about on TV was different from the actual feudal society.
Lin Yue'er finally mustered up her courage and walked in, placing the cooked sweet porridge on the table. "Everyone must be hungry, would you like to eat some together?"
Sun Ruolan looked at Lin Fan, then at Lin Yue'er, and then at the set of only one set of bowls and chopsticks prepared. She immediately understood and tried to pull her man away.
Chen Ergou bluntly stated that he was indeed hungry.
Looking at Sun Ruolan's hand, which had recovered completely, Lin Fan suddenly remembered Xiao Yi and summoned it with a wave of his hand.
The giant ant, which was already somewhat frightening in appearance, had its body torn and tattered, with two of its legs broken off.
"Ah, ah, bugs, ah, no, monsters!" Chen Ergou shouted frantically, stomping his feet on the ground.
Lin Yue'er's face turned pale with fright. Instead of screaming, she moved closer to Lin Fan.
Sun Ruolan reached out her mechanical hand and patted Xiao Yi's head. Being of the same kind and without Lin Fan's command, Xiao Yi obediently let Sun Ruolan pat it, comfortably swaying its head like a kitten. "Brother Lin, you are truly unfathomable. I never imagined you could subdue even the Thunder Shadow Dark Light Soul-Devouring Sky-Splitting Arrogant Frost Dragon of the Ink Paper Fan. How did you do that?"
Sun Ruolan's eyes even showed a hint of admiration.
Lin Fan was taken aback. "How did you remember that name? Can you say it again and say the same name as before?"
Lin Fan didn't take the opportunity to show off, claiming he possessed boundless magical power and easily subdued the spirit beast. Instead, he truthfully explained the situation. To be honest, he didn't know the exact principle behind it, but it was clear that his scythe had a certain effect on the mechanical humans and beasts.
"So, Master Er Gou, can you fix it for me? You'll be well paid."
Chen Ergou looked miserable. "You want me to fix this? It won't bite me, will it?"
When Lin Fan slipped a silver ingot to Lin Ergou, the latter happily carried Xiao Yi away. The mechanical beast was covered in burn scars, and it wouldn't be healed in a short time. Chen Ergou was now in for a busy time.
Sun Ruolan wanted to leave too, but Lin Fan stopped her.
"Miss Sun, wait a minute, I want to ask if you still have the ability to turn people into mechanical beings? Preferably just the limbs or something."
To be honest, Lin Fan thought the mechanical limbs were actually quite good; they wouldn't bleed, were sturdy, and possessed immense strength. Moreover, since they were so easy to repair, there wasn't much to worry about if they broke. The only weakness was that they were extremely vulnerable to fire.
Sun Ruolan didn't know why he asked that, so she replied directly, "As long as you set up an altar and perform the ritual, and recite Buddhist scriptures with me, it's probably still possible to transform him."
Niu Dadan, who had been silently watching Sun Ruolan, finally spoke up: "Brother Lin, I believe that no matter how good a mechanical body is, it's not as good as one's own flesh and blood. I advise you not to use such unorthodox methods to enhance yourself. Moreover, performing rituals will also affect Ruolan, and I absolutely will not allow it!"
Lin Fan shook his head. "Sorry, I didn't mean that."
He didn't care whether he improved himself through crooked means or not, because in his opinion, none of the methods he could access were not crooked.
It seems that learning martial arts is a reliable method, but it takes too much time and is not very useful in the short term. I don't have any ambition for martial arts; I just want to improve my strength to protect myself.
Turning one's body into wood irreversibly is not a simple decision to make; it's best to think about it slowly.
Lin Yue'er was already sitting on the edge of the bed, feeding Lin Fan porridge.
Lin Fan could certainly drink it himself, but the two of them just habitually did it this way.
The porridge was very sweet and had plenty of ingredients; it's rare to find such a delicious dish.
Lin Fan savored the sweetness in his mouth and casually asked, "Have you made up your mind?"
