Lin Yue's eyes locked onto the red dot in the darkness, and in an instant, a knife fell.
Slashed down while suddenly lifting up vigorously.
Split down again. In lifting...
One slash. One slash. One slash...
Lin Yue's consciousness was already unclear, he forgot his own arm, also forgot the knife in his hand, and even forgot the darkness in front of him. His eyes were gray and hazy, only leaving that red dot.
He had only one thought in his mind: as long as the red dot didn't go out, his body wouldn't fall.
Everything is vague, but the pain is so clear. A little torture that pinches Lin Yue's nerves.
After an unknown period of time, the faint red dot in the grayness finally went out, Lin Yao's body crashed to the ground, and a wisp of smile hung from the corner of his mouth.
It wasn't because he was too tired and fell asleep, but rather because he fainted from the pain...
When Lin Yue woke up, it was already the second day in the afternoon. As soon as he opened his eyes and wanted to move a bit, a sharp pain came from his right arm. He could only reluctantly admit that this was the first time he had pulled a muscle since practicing splitting incense sticks. Before, he had always increased one stick at a time, but yesterday he suddenly got excited and added three more, wasn't that asking for trouble?!
Looks like I was too excited yesterday, money kills people!
Lin Yue finally managed to get up from the ground with difficulty. Fortunately, it was not cool in Tengchong on May Day evening, otherwise he would have caught a cold.
After cleaning up the ashes in the house, Lin Yue went to eat at the restaurant downstairs. Except for his right arm not being able to lift, there was no discomfort elsewhere on his body, and his mental state was actually very good.
Lin Yuezhi vaguely felt that his spiritual power had increased when he practiced splitting incense, and at least his endurance would be greatly improved after being tortured back and forth. The ability to see through things clearly felt that what was needed was spiritual power, the stronger the spiritual power, the longer the time it could last. These two are obviously mutually beneficial. However, what specific situation is still to be verified, after a few days he will go to Kunming and take out the jade from the wool, then return home for a trip, give some money to his parents to make their lives better, most importantly, that old Taoist temple. It's been three years since he didn't go home, and he doesn't know how that old Taoist temple is doing now. When he left home, that old Taoist temple was already very dilapidated, and the incense was not good either. Whether it can hold on until now is also an unknown number, so this trip back to his hometown must be successful.
Lin Yue ordered two servings of food at the restaurant under the hotel and started eating, asking for a fork and spoon instead of chopsticks. Because his entire right arm could only dangle, he could only eat with his left hand.
After so many years of running a restaurant, it's the first time I've seen someone eating with their left hand. The person in charge and the waiter couldn't help but glance at Lin Yue, who was eating voraciously without any table manners, and would occasionally smile and chat for a few sentences while pointing and gesturing at Lin Yue.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely not be able to eat under someone else's gaze, but Lin Yue was no ordinary person. Not only did he finish the meal, but he also ate with great relish. Two meals a day, each time consuming so much food had already made him forget what was called dignity.
It was already 12:30 when he finished dinner, Lin Yue didn't care about the saying that it's not good to sleep after eating and went back to bed for a nap.
It's still comfortable on the bed!
Lin Yue hummed a few more times and fell asleep. When he woke up again, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon. He simply tidied himself up and headed towards Jade Stone Street once more.
As soon as Lin Yang arrived at Jade Street, he found that everyone's gaze towards him had changed again. The first time was when some people saw him with a mixture of envy and admiration, but more of jealousy, like looking at someone who had stepped on dog shit luck. The second time was when some merchants knew that he had spent half his money to help a mentally unclear person who no one had been willing to help for nine years, and they looked at him like an idiot, with some appreciation but more as if looking at a fool, because doing so was simply not worth it. The third time was when all the stall owners here knew that he had obtained recognition cards and preferential rights, and many people's gazes towards him were filled with deep envy and admiration. Now it has changed again, filled with respect and doubt.
Admire Lin Yue's ability to gamble and rise every time, his eyes are venomous. Wondering how he can possess such high gambling skills at such a young age.
Lin Yue was already accustomed to the various gazes, and continued walking on Jade Street. At this time, he seemed unaware of the impact he had created here. Many people attributed Lin Yue's good luck in gambling to his doing good deeds and being a good person, so from then on, the atmosphere on this street became very good, with everyone doing good deeds. After doing good deeds, they would go gamble, and although some lost and some won, those who won all attributed it to their own good deeds. As this matter was passed down, it became more and more absurd, and the number of people doing good deeds increased. The impact that was created was thus passed down from person to person, generation to generation.
Just as he walked up to Qin Zonghan's stall, he was called out by the other party.
"Lin Yue, why are you in such a hurry?" Qin Zonghan's shout drew everyone's attention to him. The stall owner actually dared to recognize Lin Yue, who was in his prime on this street, and the two of them were quite familiar with each other.
Feeling the envious and puzzled eyes around him, Qin Zonghan felt very proud of himself and immediately puffed out his chest.
"Sorry, Qin big brother, I was just thinking about something and didn't notice that I had arrived at your place." Lin Yue walked over with a smile, what he said was the truth.
"You little scoundrel, are you hiding from me? I've heard about what happened yesterday. That piece of wool fabric that rose in value by 2.5 million, wasn't it bought by you at the Ghost Market the night before last?" As soon as he mentioned the Ghost Market, Qin Zonghan immediately lowered his voice, the fewer people who knew about the Ghost Market, the better.
"How could I possibly hide from you? That wool was indeed bought from your stall, and here it is, I've already prepared it." As he spoke, Lin Yue took out the red envelope that he had prepared for Qin Zonghan beforehand.
"You little brat, you're playing a joke on me and I actually believed it. Take it back, take it back." Qin Zonghan's face immediately fell when he saw the red envelope in Lin Yue's hand, and he pushed it back to him.
Lin Yue smiled slightly and handed over the money to Qin Zonghan, saying: "It's not much anyway, just consider it as the money you owed me for buying wool that night. Share the good fortune together, besides, it's not easy doing this line of work."
Qin Zonghan wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Lin Yue, who said: "Brother Qin, if you don't accept it, it means you look down on me."
"This move is indeed useful, Qin Zonghan sighed and said; 'Alright, I'll take it.' As he spoke, he flipped the red envelope in his hand and glared at Lin Yue, saying: 'You little scoundrel, you cheated me! This isn't the money I made a profit from, it's clearly more than that!'"
