Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1132 - 1130: I’m Not an Official

The sky never seals off all paths.

Lin Fan initially thought he'd find a random cave to take shelter for the night on this vast land.

Unexpectedly,

he stumbled upon a small village.

Just a dozen or so houses, like lonely stars scattered on the ground, appearing very desolate and solitary.

Lin Fan quickly walked over.

At the village entrance, a few children were playing. They saw Lin Fan from afar and instantly cried out, scattering like frightened birds and beasts.

Lin Fan was bewildered.

Do I look so scary? Do children cry at the sight of me?

He considered himself rather amiable-looking.

Perplexed, he stepped into the village.

But as soon as he took a step,

suddenly!

The doors of the dozen or so houses in the village abruptly opened.

Nearly ten men rushed out from within.

With dark skin, slender build, holding various tools, they charged at Lin Fan with wild screams.

Lin Fan was momentarily stunned. Was his reputation so tarnished that it reached the level of being condemned by everyone in the Shennong Clan?

He sighed.

But these were just ordinary farmers, truly insignificant individuals.

He didn't bother to take them seriously.

Nor did he desire to engage with them further.

"Just arrived, and here we go again? This is driving us to our graves, do you want us all dead?!"

One farmer roared fiercely, his voice extremely hoarse.

Again?

Lin Fan didn't understand what the other meant, looking completely bewildered.

It was clearly his first time here.

"Uh… have you misunderstood something?"

"Misunderstood? Misunderstood what?! Don't go too far; even a cornered dog will jump over a wall. Push us to the brink, and we'll… we'll… we'll kill you!"

The farmer's eyes widened, his hair stood on end, and his hands trembled slightly as he clutched the steel fork.

Led by him, the surrounding farmers began shouting loudly as well, advancing with their weapons.

Lin Fan sighed deeply, shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know any of you, and it's my first time here. I haven't done anything; just wanted to stay the night. If you're unwilling, I'll leave. No need for violence."

He said flatly, thinking these people must be insane, better not stay here long.

After speaking, he turned to leave.

However,

coming was easy, but leaving was difficult.

The farmers unexpectedly shouted.

"Want to leave?! Not that simple!"

Lin Fan frowned. Wasn't this insane?

Coming isn't allowed, leaving isn't allowed.

Whom did he provoke?

Did they know he was Lin Fan? Wanting to capture him for a reward? How could their news be so well-informed?

With a swish,

the farmers surrounded him immediately.

"We've had enough! Repeated oppression, today we will fight to the death with you!"

The farmer clearly lost his rationality, eyes bloodshot, filled with murderous intent.

All he saw was the fury of revenge, completely disregarding who the opponent was.

Lin Fan cast a disdainful glance.

"What a bunch of nonsense."

He didn't want to tangle with these insignificant figures, turned again intending to leave.

The farmer saw this, his anger shot up, wielded the steel fork and stabbed towards Lin Fan's back.

Lin Fan seemed unaware, still didn't turn his head.

But actually, he was waiting for the opponent to get close; once within reach, it would be the time when the farmer's bones were snapped.

"Stop!"

However, an angry shout from somewhere saved the farmer's life.

It seemed the voice carried substantial authority.

The farmer immediately halted his actions, withdrew the steel fork.

"Er Niu! What's going on with you?!"

The farmer named Er Niu was evidently raised in the village.

"I… I..."

"How could you commit such a preposterous act? And you all, why are you fussing along with Er Niu?!"

The farmers lowered their heads, dared not make a sound, their faces turning red and green.

"Village Chief… they… they really bully people too much."

"Impertinent!"

The village chief lashed out in anger again, glaring at Er Niu.

"Stay aside."

After reprimanding, he hurried towards Lin Fan.

His face full of smiles.

"Dear officer, we country folks don't understand, offended you, hope you'll be magnanimous to spare us."

Lin Fan furrowed his brows, bewilderedly turned around.

"Officer?"

In what way did he resemble an officer?

He was not only not an officer but a fugitive hunted by officers. These people really had poor eyesight.

"Yes… yes…"

Lin Fan looked at the timid village chief, roughly grasping the situation.

The village chief was aged, with silver hair and a long beard, appearing feeble and ancient. Without a woman supporting him, likely he wouldn't even be able to stand.

This woman must be his daughter.

Lin Fan glanced her over from head to toe, pondering.

The village chief, facing Lin Fan, looked troubled but still stammered, "Li Hua, where is your manners, greet the officer."

Lin Fan widened his eyes in alarm. Had this old fellow misunderstood his intention?! He hadn't thought about that aspect!

"Greetings, officer," Li Hua said softly.

The village chief smilingly continued, "Officer, this is my daughter, Li Hua."

Lin Fan's heart trembled slightly.

The village chief's expression, tone, and demeanor seemingly intended to marry Li Hua to him?

"Oh."

Terrified inside, he absently responded.

But noticed not far away, Er Niu glaring at him venomously, like an enemy met with extraordinary rage.

Lin Fan quickly realized.

There must be something between Li Hua and Er Niu.

Recalling Er Niu's unprovoked attempt to kill, he thought might as well play a trick on him, make him furious.

Lin Fan mischievously smiled internally, then unwaveringly stared at Li Hua, even blinked at her.

"Old man, your girl looks quite pretty."

"Um… hehe… sort of…" The village chief awkwardly chuckled, unsure how to respond.

Er Niu's face reddened as if ignited, smoke rising from his head, eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Is she married?"

"She's young, unmarried." The village chief swallowed heavily.

Er Niu already clenching fists, veins bulging.

Lin Fan's heart blossomed even more.

"Then I wonder..."

"Shut up!" Er Niu could no longer endure, erupted like a volcano, roaring furiously at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan slowly raised his head, gazed coldly at Er Niu, chills running down everyone's spine.

The village chief's body quivered a bit, hastily appeasing, "Officer… officer… he doesn't understand... you..."

Before the village chief could finish, Lin Fan slightly smiled.

"No problem, Village Chief."

"No, no problem?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The village chief was greatly puzzled, the farmers equally bewildered.

Even Er Niu himself was utterly confused.

He was already set to fight desperately with this "officer," ready to battle tooth and nail.

The other side actually said no problem?

Trickery?

Lin Fan watched everyone's puzzled expressions, smiling slightly again.

"I'm not an officer, just passing through wanting to stay a night. I don't know who the officer you're referring to is, but I'm indeed not one."

He shrugged, looking completely relaxed.

Not a sound was heard.

Everyone was speechless, jaws dropped, unspeaking.

In conclusion, had they just been played like monkeys all along?

This person indeed wasn't an officer?

"You… you're not… not..."

"Not," Lin Fan affirmed.

"But, but our small village, only an officer passes through… never outsiders… how do you..."

"I am heading to the Main City, happened to pass by, wondering if I could spend the night?"
