Chapter 833 443: Peak Rat Phase, Time to Play with Them!
The Murong brothers often say that they are as famous as Young Hero Duan. Many of his round-faced, bushy-bearded supporters say the same, which has some elements of exaggeration. However, there is not much dispute that he is the number two figure at Yuzhu Manor.
Moreover, he has aspirations to claim the top spot.
But this time, after falling asleep in a latrine, he completely lost his voice in front of Duan Yun.
Because if Duan Yun spreads this story, he might lose the right to kiss, or even the right to marry.
The Murong brothers cleaned themselves inside and out, pretending as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, everyone was discussing why they suddenly fell asleep.
"Have you ever heard of the Sleeping Bug?" Ziyu said.
"Sleeping Bug?"
"It's a kind of insect, generally hidden in wine. Once someone is exposed to it, they easily fall asleep. This is also why many drunks fall into a deep sleep."
"Are you saying there's a Sleeping Bug here? But how could a Sleeping Bug be so potent? Even the Sad酥Divine Water of the Great Yin Yang Water Divine Palace isn't this strong," Tang Wanwan questioned.
Sad酥Divine Water is a very potent poison. It is colorless and odorless, and even Martial Arts masters who are poisoned by it become powerless, at the mercy of others.
But even such a poison has limited effects on experts like them, far from knocking them out just by touching it.
The claim that a mere Sleeping Bug could put people to sleep is akin to a fairy tale.
Feng Ling'er and the others also found it impossible. If there really was poison in the world that could easily bring them down like this, the force behind it would have already dominated the Martial World; it wouldn't be mysterious enough to leave them guessing.
Tang Wanwan couldn't help but recall: "At that time, I was in the cellar with my master. I kept feeling as if he was like a wave, coming towards me to bring me to justice on the spot."
Feng Ling'er disdainfully said, "What do you mean, imagining being judged on the spot? Can't you stop being so vulgar?"
At this moment, Xiatou Ying, known for being vulgar, surprisingly did not mind this vulgar comment. Instead, with raised eyebrows, she said, "You say he was like a wave, rushing at you? What happened then?"
Tang Wanwan said, "It was just a feeling, there wasn't really a wave, and then I was knocked out."
Shen Ying pondered, "You're saying Duan Yun created a feeling of rushing towards you, which put you to sleep."
"That's exactly it."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone looked at Duan Yun, including the Murong brothers.
The Murong brothers looked at Duan Yun in shock and said, "Is it your doing?"
"Old Demon Duan, you did me terrible harm!"
Saying this, his knife was about to be drawn.
Duan Yun pressed down on the hilt of his knife and said, "Calm down, it can't be me."
Ziyu murmured, "You better not say anything, the more you talk, the more it sounds like you."
Everyone had this feeling; this matter was quite bizarre and ridiculous, and all the bizarre and ridiculous things at Yuzhu Manor seemed to be orchestrated by Duan Yun.
Because no one else could pull it off.
Though in the affair of the mutually green Green Jade City, the Murong brothers seemed to have surpassed Duan Yun in outside matters.
Internally, however, in creating trouble, the Murong brothers were not as good as Duan Yun by eleven points. Besides being sycophants and holding high regard for all the women at the manor, the people there generally had strong martial arts and wit, making it difficult for him to spread any mischief.
But Duan Yun was different. Whether it was inciting urinary effects or messing with hallucinations, he was impartial, not even sparing pandas and donkeys.
Actually, they didn't know that even the earthworms in the soil were not exempted this time.
Facing everyone's suspicions, Duan Yun naturally denied them.
He had already learned from previous lessons. His illusion technique now couldn't easily deceive them because they had been "educated" beforehand, developing overly cautious hearts.
To hypnotize Xiatou Ying and any others who might avoid consulting a doctor, he couldn't allow them to be overly wary.
The Murong brothers were the most agitated in questioning, "Is it you? Is it you?"
Duan Yun comforted, "Honestly, it's not me. A man should face obstacles squarely; after all, you just fell..."
The Murong brothers quickly covered Duan Yun's mouth and said, "Brother, I was wrong."
Duan Yun said, "As long as you realize your mistake. You must understand, you can eat anything indiscriminately, but you can't speak recklessly."
"Who... who the hell eats..."
The Murong brothers ultimately didn't dare to finish, stamping their feet and leaving.
Whether Duan Yun was behind all this suddenly became uncertain because they had no evidence.
Moreover, Duan Yun had also fallen asleep at the time. If not for Feng Ling'er lacking such capabilities, she would have been the prime suspect.
Regarding the outcome of this attempt, Duan Yun was left half-pleased and half-worried.
It was indeed hypnotism, but not the kind he sought.
Honestly, the powerful sleep-inducing effect exceeded his expectations; just imagine if one day he were besieged by hundreds of experts, facing an extremely dire situation, he could use this technique to knock everyone out, ensuring his undefeated status.
But the weakness was that it affected both others and himself; to put others to sleep, he had to fall asleep first, as was evident from the recent example.
It could only be considered another secret weapon, but how to utilize this secret weapon still required wisdom.
Unknowingly, the New Year passed.
Actually, well before the New Year, most people had already gotten busy, doing work as needed, engaging in business as needed without resting.
After all, many people had come through hard times, much harder than oxen or horses, unused to idle days of leisure, even if it meant taking a few extra days to rest.
