Chapter 126: Killing and Dumping Corpses
Liu Dacheng's face was full of confusion and bewilderment.
Lin Yifan had a guess in mind; he had just looked at the time displayed on the teleportation service.
Liu Shaocheng could still stay here for another two and a half hours, so he must have been teleported here half an hour ago.
Half an hour ago, Lin Yifan was inside the instance!
If my guess is correct, although the 【Bidirectional Teleportation Talisman】 can teleport to the location indicated by the name, if the lock-on target enters an instance, the talisman cannot teleport a person into the instance.
Therefore, the person who is teleported will arrive at the position where the target was before entering the instance.
In this way, it seems this talisman can only be used within the same plane; the instance space should belong to another plane.
Because according to Keluositin, after his death, the area he was in had already become nothingness.
If he had not used the 【Forbidden Spell: Flooding the Sky】 and the 【Source of Myriad Waters】 to summon a natural disaster, turning the area into an instance, then the place where he was would never appear again.
This also serves to prove from the side that an instance is an independent space.
Therefore, no matter how powerful the 【Dual-direction Teleportation Formation】 is, it cannot follow the target and teleport a person into the instance.
But in any case, this is an extraordinary treasure.
Lin Yifan unceremoniously threw the 【Bidirectional Teleportation Talisman】 into his storage space, and then said to Liu Dacheng:
"The teleportation talisman is mine now; you shouldn't have any objections, right?"
"No, no objections!" Liu Dacheng said with a stiff mouth corner and a face full of bitterness.
Lin Yifan nodded satisfied, stretched, and then said:
"Alright, I already have answers to what I wanted to know; thanks for your honesty, so I can leave you a full corpse!"
"You said if I answered your questions well, you wouldn't kill me!" Liu Dacheng lifted his head in disbelief and shouted angrily:
"I have already answered all your questions truthfully; how can you go back on your word?"
"What kind of strong person are you? You have no credibility at all."
"Does a strong person have to have credibility?" Lin Yifan scoffed disdainfully, "Besides, dealing with someone like you who comes with ill intent, if I don't kill you, would I be waiting for you to come later to take revenge?"
"As for me, I've always disliked leaving future troubles for myself, so sorry!"
Having said that, he took out a machete and prepared to give Liu Dacheng a quick end.
Although Lin Yifan had never killed anyone before, that was only because of legal restrictions.
That doesn't mean he wouldn't dare.
Moreover, he had a clear understanding of this world; especially after seeing Keluositin, he realized even more that the world's resources are limited.
In the future, to seize resources, slaughter is inevitable.
Just like Liu Dacheng, who, upon meeting him, immediately tried to kill him.
If he weren't strong enough, he would be a corpse today!
For someone who wants his life, Lin Yifan has not the slightest bit of soft-heartedness.
And he didn't give Liu Dacheng a chance to keep talking; he reached out, grabbed his neck, and twisted hard, snapping it directly.
He had originally wanted to use a knife, but this was in his own home; using a knife would cause blood to spray, and later he'd have to spend time cleaning up.
As for how to handle the corpse, Lin Yifan also had his own plan.
He tidied up his storage space a bit, left a spot, then threw the corpse inside, waiting until he found a place far enough from the shelter to dump the body.
Killing and dumping corpses—something unthinkable back on Earth Star—now felt surprisingly easy to do.
Moreover, Lin Yifan discovered that although he felt a little psychological discomfort, it was only a slight unease, and otherwise he showed no adverse reactions.
"Could it be that I'm naturally a cold-blooded, ruthless killer embryo?"
Lin Yifan looked at his right hand that had just snapped Liu Dacheng's neck, muttering unconsciously.
"Chirp!"
Until Mao Mao from beside him pounced into his arms, letting out a plaintive chirp.
Only then did Lin Yifan finally come back to his senses, reaching out to pat Mao Mao's head and saying gratefully:
"Mao Mao, thank you so much today; if it weren't for you, the supplies at home would have been snatched away."
"Chirp!" Mao Mao happily shook his head, his pair of green-bean eyes full of pride.
"Good, good, good, you're the best!" Lin Yifan praised Mao Mao for his achievement, then changed tone and said:
"Mao Mao, although I'm grateful that you protected the supplies today, if we encounter something like this next time, I hope you run away quickly."
"To me, you are far more important than supplies; supplies can be found again if lost, but if something happens to you, I would be heartbroken!"
"So remember, when danger comes next time, run right away to protect your own life—it's more important than any external affairs, got it?"
In the shelter were placed many high-grade materials, especially those few pots of advanced cultivation soil, which were truly treasures.
But even so, Lin Yifan still cared more about Mao Mao's safety.
However, although Mao Mao had the intelligence of a seven- or eight-year-old child, he was still not human; his mind was stubborn, and he simply couldn't take in Lin Yifan's advice.
Seeing this, Lin Yifan could only sigh helplessly.
He reached out and touched Mao Mao's injured wing, his face full of heartache: "Your wing is broken; I'll bandage it for you, and for the next while you should just stay home and recuperate."
Mao Mao's wing bone was slightly misaligned; fortunately, when Lin Yifan was on Earth Star, as a child, his neighbor next door was a barefoot doctor, from whom he learned a few techniques.
Serious ailments couldn't be cured, but setting bones was something he truly learned.
After setting Mao Mao's bones, he then used an axe to split several wood splints, clamped Mao Mao's wing with the wood splints, and wrapped them with cloth strips.'
To prevent Mao Mao from wriggling about mischievously, he directly wrapped Mao Mao into a zongzi, binding both legs as well, leaving only its bird head blinking with a confused gaze.
Lin Yifan flicked Mao Mao's head with his finger and said amusedly:
"Before your wing heals, you'll just be a ball; I'll feed you tasty food at every meal."
Although Mao Mao didn't understand, he felt really obedient and well-behaved.
With just this little cloth strip, if it really wanted to break free, that would be an easy task.
But it still just stayed there obediently, without any resistance.
By now it was dark outside, but Lin Yifan had no intention of staying at home.
Although the outdoors at night were extremely dangerous.
However, the Pathfinding Spirit's duration is limited, and we don't know when we'll be able to draw this buff again.
Therefore, we must find the place where Mao Mao picked the Qingling Fruit before the Pathfinding Spirit buff disappears.
Moreover, the most important point is that he still has to go dump a corpse!
