Rebirth: Re-entering the Jianghu

Chapter 8 Puppet Threads

Princess Fu'an struck the puppeteer with her palm, but unexpectedly, countless white lines stretched out from the sleeves of the puppeteer in an instant.

It looks soft, but it is actually difficult to break free. Just when it was about to rush towards Princess Fu'an, the white thread was picked up by a sword. The puppeteer's eyes flashed, and he turned around and directed the white thread towards Princess Fu'an. The thin white thread pierced into Princess Fu'an's hand like a needle. She seemed to have lost consciousness. The puppeteer's fingers were flying, controlling her puppet. On the one hand, she blocked Luo Xiao's attack, and on the other hand, she could not attack herself. Then she controlled Princess Fu'an and Luo Xiao to fight.

She knew that Luo Xiao would not attack Princess Fu'an, so she danced her fingers more unscrupulously, her movements mysterious and light. She watched the two people fighting and smiled in a good mood.

Suddenly, Mu Xing came from the back garden. Without saying a word, he saw Princess Fu'an being controlled by the puppet thread and started fighting with her. Luo Xiao withdrew from the fight. While the two were fighting, he used his sword to cut the puppet thread, and Princess Fu'an fell to the ground.

At this time, Lin Wen came with the guards. She heard footsteps and realized that the puppeteer was surrounded. She stretched out her hand as if to release the puppet threads again. She dodged repeatedly, and with a light leap, she stepped on the roof and performed light skills. In a flash, her shadow could no longer be seen.

Seeing this, they had no choice but to take Princess Fu'an to the bedroom and let the imperial physician check if the puppet thread had caused any harm to her. It was found that there was a hole in Princess Fu'an's hand, which was pierced by the puppet thread. Fortunately, she was controlled for a short time and the injury was not too serious. The imperial physician prescribed some medicine and everyone was relieved.

Preparing to leave the palace, the three planned to go to the pavilion to discuss what to do if the puppeteer came again. However, no one noticed that Princess Fu'an suddenly opened her eyes, but she seemed to be distracted. After a while, her eyes returned to normal, and seemed to be exactly the same as before.

The sound coming out of her mouth is the puppeteer's. Do you think you can defeat me like this? My puppet silk has more than just a small effect. She will become my eyes. Wait.

Mu Xing, Luo Xiao and Lin Wen were sitting in the pavilion. Palace servants walked by from time to time. They said that the situation was really critical just now, but fortunately Princess Fu'an was fine.

Mu Xing said that was not necessarily the case. I was saved by a puppeteer. She wanted to turn me into a puppet, but she temporarily let me go because I was too seriously injured. However, she had controlled her puppets before. I saw that she seemed to be able to feel what was happening to the puppets. We should be careful.

On the second day, Princess Fu'an appeared in the back garden as usual, feeding the koi by the lake. The three people observed that there seemed to be nothing different. They were relieved and planned to discuss how to lure out the puppeteer again. The three subconsciously did not avoid Princess Fu'an, but the puppeteer already knew their plan.

Damn you, you destroyed my puppet thread and still want to catch me. If I don't let you become my puppets, I'm not a puppeteer. Why don't I pretend to be caught and turn them all into my puppets?

Coming to the back garden happily, Lin Wen was talking to Princess Fu'an at this time, "Sister, are you feeling unwell? I'll ask the imperial physician to check you out. It's all because of that damn puppeteer. She should be arrested." Princess Fu'an said with a smile, "Brother, now that you have a sister-in-law, you care about people." The brother and sister were about to go back.

Unexpectedly, the puppeteer jumped down from the roof at this time and said, "You are all my defeated enemies, and you still talk nonsense about catching me. Don’t you even consider whether you have the ability to do so?"

The three of them started fighting again, but the puppeteer was soon defeated and spit out blood. At this time, Luo Xiao came from the side road. Lin Wen had already explained to them. A guard saw the puppeteer and quietly called Luo Xiao over. That's why Princess Fu'an and Lin Wen had to fight with the puppeteer. They didn't want the puppeteer to be so weak now.

A dazzling white light flashed before Luo Xiao's eyes, and he heard the sound of the dagger entering the body. Princess Fu'an had a hollow look in her eyes, and she inserted the dagger into Lin Wen's heart. The wound was bleeding. Seeing this, the puppeteer laughed, "Didn't you say you wanted to catch me? How come you can't even block the attack of the people around you? You still want to catch me? It's so funny."

When he was about to run away, he was knocked to the ground by Mu Xing holding a spear. He had no strength to fight back and could only watch and say, "Don't you care about that man? He will bleed to death soon. If you don't save him, it will be too late."

The guards locked up the puppet master in prison, while Lin Wen was sent to the palace. When the imperial physician arrived, he treated the wound very calmly, and then took a look at it. He said that it was nothing serious, just excessive blood loss, and it would be fine after a supplement. After that, he left in a leisurely manner, and the nearby palace servants followed him to the imperial hospital to get medicine.

At this time, Lin Wen woke up and felt that his wound was very painful. "Xiaoxiao, am I going to die soon? I haven't married you yet, woo, poor Xiaoxiao," Luo Xiao told him that you are fine. The imperial physician just checked and said that you have lost too much blood. You just need to take good care of yourself. It's nothing serious. By the way, how is Fuan?

Princess Fu'an was locked in her bedroom, but after she woke up, she didn't seem to know what she had just done. We asked her, and she had no memory of hurting you. We speculate that as long as the puppet thread is implanted in the body, it will be controlled by the puppeteer. The puppeteer can not only control people's thoughts, but also control people's actions. We must find a way to completely eradicate this puppet thread.

The puppeteer was imprisoned by the guards. Wait until you are better before interrogating her. You must make her remove the puppet threads and not let her control Princess Fu'an for the rest of her life.

After that, the two of them walked past many rocky gardens and came to the prison. In order to prevent prison break-ins, we set up the prison in a less conspicuous place, hoping to get a good result.

They arrived at the prison, where the lights were dim and there were occasional sounds of chains colliding. They soon came in front of the puppeteer. She was still the same. Her inner strength was sealed, but she did not seem panicked. She just glanced at the two people who came, and instantly retracted her gaze, staring at the little bit of light in front of the small window, as if she wanted to turn into a moth and fly out of the window.

Lin Wen sat down to negotiate with the puppeteer. He said, "You let go of your puppet thread, and I will let you go freely. Are you willing to exchange it? If you are willing, I will let you go after my sister is well. If not, you can only wait for death here alone." After some discussion, the two finally reached an agreement and prepared to take out the puppet thread.
