Chapter 4: Lacking calcium since childhood, lacking love when grown up

  Ten consecutive games, five people did not win a single game, whether it was bigger or smaller, and even Li Bi Valley was shocked.

  Lin Fan often gambled, but usually won little and lost much. Why was it that this time when he gambled with the five of them, Lin Fan seemed to have divine assistance? Was heaven really not helping them?

  "After losing ten rounds, you've also lost all your 100,000 gold coins. I'll give you a chance to win back, go get another 100,000 gold coins and we'll continue the gamble," Lin Fan said with great fanfare as he put away the ten silver slips on the table.

  "Go get another 100,000 gold coins. Since Lin Shao is in such a good mood today, we can't possibly ruin it for him," Li Bi Gu still had an expression as calm as the windless sky and rainless ground. After all, losing 100,000 gold coins was nothing; this would allow Lin Shao to take his own 100,000 gold coins back, wouldn't that be a huge help to the Lin family?

  "Oh, sorry about this, nature calls, you guys go prepare the silver tickets first, I'll just take a quick break."

  "It's just as convenient for me too, why don't we go together."

  When Lin Fan heard Li Bo Gu's words, he looked at him with interest and thought to himself: "You can't be gay, can you?" But there was no way out, who made him win 100,000 gold coins from the other party? If he ran away now, it would be strange if the five of them didn't get scolded to death when they got back.

  As he walked along the road, Lin Fan suddenly asked the man beside him: "Li Shao, I've been wanting to ask you something, but I don't know if I should ask or not."

  Lin Shaoyou was being polite, and had asked if there were any questions, as long as he knew them, he would definitely tell him everything. As for Lin Fan, Li Bi Valley could be said to have put in a lot of effort, after all, as long as the Lin family fell, his Li family would have hope to replace them and become one of the six major families of Luojing City.

  "Why did you take this name, is there any special meaning?"

  "Oh, so Lin Shao asked about this. My name was given by my grandfather, and as for what it means, I still don't understand to this day." Li Bi Gu thought to himself, "What's the point of telling him the origin of my name? Even if I told him, would a illiterate person like you be able to understand?"

  But Lin Fan was thinking, Li Bi Gu, Li Pi Gu? In his previous life, he was at least a college student, was it that he was too ignorant or had misunderstood. He shook his head, and for the name Li Bi Gu, Lin Fan was truly astonished.

  The toilet was a single one, and although Li Fei Yu was afraid that Lin Fan would run away, he couldn't possibly go into the same toilet with him. He could only stand guard outside, looking anxious, hoping that the person inside would hurry up and finish his business.

  In the toilet, he secretly despised Li Pigu who was guarding outside. Lin Fan didn't bother to gamble again, after all, winning 100,000 gold coins was enough for five people to spend. As for the revenge plan, it would be discussed after the family competition.

  Lin Fan quietly and stealthily left the toilet, causing Li Pígu to wait outside for three hours. If he hadn't been unable to wait any longer, Li Bi'gu would have had someone open the toilet door, and who knows how much longer Li would have continued waiting.

  Back home, Lin Fan didn't hesitate at all. With only four days left before the family competition, he had to refine two kinds of elixirs within four days and raise his cultivation to the level of a war master. Only when he became a war master would he have the confidence to help his family regain its former peak.

  The newly purchased Dan Ding has been delivered, and all the medicinal materials bought from the pharmacy will be taken out. Lin Fan's purchase of medicinal materials for refining Dan medicine is not just one set, even if he hasn't really refined Dan medicine before, but having watched countless TV dramas, how could he not know that the success rate of refining Dan medicine is extremely low?

  The medicinal materials for refining the Washing Marrow Dan are: Guiling Xian, Tiandan Burnt, Puhuang, Ou Hua, Qihua She and He Ding Hong. Although He Ding Hong is the most toxic substance in the world, if it is refined with other medicinal materials, it becomes a spiritual elixir that can wash and refine all the meridians of the body.

  Set up a furnace, with his current strength, he can't ignite it himself and can only rely on natural channels. He put the Dan Ding on top of the big fire and directly poured all the spiritual medicine into it. Lin Fan bought ten sets of Dan medicine materials in total. No matter what, this is his first time refining Dan medicine, so the success rate cannot be 100%.

  Lin Fan had already made mental preparations when he started refining the elixir, as it is said that failure is the mother of success. Without failure, there would be no success; only through continuous attempts by his old mother would there be a successful outcome for her son.

  According to the method of refining elixirs in the Black Tower, Lin Fan continuously struck out various palm prints. The entire alchemy furnace crackled and popped non-stop, and a foul odor spread throughout the backyard of the Lin family.

  "Which bastard didn't flush the toilet after using it? Is he trying to stink us to death in this hot summer? Damn, how disgusting!"

  "I threw up the braised pork I ate at noon. It took half a month to finally get to eat a good meal of braised pork, and now it's all wasted. I was even looking forward to savoring it."

  Listening to the insults outside the courtyard, Lin Fan directly fainted on the ground, his eyes rolled back, and his legs twitched a few times. Lin Dashi was speechless, thinking that the servant of the Lin family was really talented. After eating a plate of braised pork, it's already settled, but after a few hours, he still wanted to savor the taste again. You bastard, why don't you eat the braised pork you vomited out again and continue to savor it?

  It wasn't easy to calm down the anger in his heart, if Lin Shao's resistance to beating wasn't relatively strong, he might have been speechless and reborn again. He took a deep breath, looking at the blackness inside the Dan furnace, Lin Fan was very clear that his first attempt at refining Dan medicine had ended in failure.

  Not a bit discouraged, Lin Shao always believed in one sentence, failure is the mother of success, only from continuous failure can we find the road to success. He scooped out all the black things inside the Dan Ding and then washed it with clean water again before pouring the second batch of spiritual medicine into it.

  Time and time again, Lin Fan repeatedly refined the elixir, but for the first time it ended in failure. The second time he continued to move forward, but the third and fourth times also failed. The fifth, sixth, and seventh times were still unsuccessful, yet Lin Fan didn't show any signs of discouragement, instead becoming more courageous with each setback.

  In front of the Lin family gate, four young men dressed in luxury led a group of burly men to set up an intimidating posture, like a tiger devouring people. The four young men were the direct descendants of the Meng, Jin, Fang, and Huang families, who had all arrived to settle accounts with Lin Fan after losing 100,000 gold coins to him in a gamble, except for the Li family.

  Today, the five major families had agreed to use any means necessary to win the 100,000 gold coins from Lin Fan's spoiled son, and the five direct disciples of the five major families were also full of confidence as they left. However, the result that awaited them was a crushing defeat - not only did their side lose all 100,000 gold coins, but people also went missing.

  What made the five people feel depressed was that Lin Fan, who was originally defending with the five of them, couldn't have escaped at all. But who knew that the young master went to the toilet and disappeared without a trace? Having no choice, the five people who lost 100,000 gold coins returned home and were scolded severely. After discussion, they decided to come to Lin's house to demand debt repayment. The four small family members who came were Meng Shi, Jin Wandou, Fang Xiaoting, and Huang Dabian.

  "Lin Fan, get out here! Do you think you can just rob us of our money and get away with it? What a joke! If you don't hand over the money, I'll have you dragged to the City Lord's mansion today!"

  Li Bi Gu thought of a plan on the spot and said that Lin Fan had robbed them of their money. With the combined strength of the four families, even if the Lin family knew there was injustice, they would probably let it go. However, Li Bi Gu was very clever and did not take action himself, but instead let the other four people do the work. Even if something went wrong later, his Li family would have nothing to do with it.

  "Lin Fan, that timid turtle, is he afraid? But being afraid won't do, today if you don't return the 200,000 gold coins you stole from us, we won't let the Lin family off."

  If it were the Lin family of old, not to mention the four small families, even the other five major families wouldn't dare be so presumptuous. But with the Lin family's continuous decline in Luoshan City, even the smaller families dared to ride roughshod over the Lin family and shit on their heads.

  Even so, the four family juniors didn't dare to be so arrogant. Today Lin Wushuang was invited to the City Master's Manor for a banquet, so the four of them dared to come to the Lin Family's door and show off their might.

  Just as the four of them were about to continue their scolding, Lin Fan slowly walked out from inside with an icy gaze. He had been on the verge of successfully refining his seventh batch of elixirs, but these few rabbits had disturbed him, causing a furnace of good medicine to be ruined. How could Young Master Lin endure this?

  Coming to Meng Shi's side, Lin Fan looked at the young man in front of him and praised: "Meng brother, it's been a few days since we last met, I didn't expect you to become so handsome and elegant, refined and charming. Does Meng brother have some kind of magical medicine? How can someone become so good-looking?"

  When Lin Fan praised himself, Meng Shi's heart was overjoyed. Who doesn't love to be flattered in this world? Especially for the four of them, as direct disciples of the four major families, they might even become the future heads of their respective families. How could they not like being praised by others?

  But before Meng Shi could say anything, Lin Fan's eyes suddenly turned cold and he directly scolded: "Do you think you're really handsome? I think you've been calcium deficient since childhood, grown up lacking love, your grandma doesn't care about you, your uncle doesn't love you, your left face deserves a slap, your right face deserves a kick, donkeys see donkeys and kick, pigs see pigs and trample, you were born to be a cucumber, deserving of being beaten! Later in life you'll be a walnut, deserving of being scolded! All your life you'll be a broken motorcycle, deserving of being kicked! If you find a wife who's a screw, she deserves to be screwed! People like you are better off dead than alive!"

  Hehe...

  Lin Fan's curse left everyone speechless, and the Lin family guards burst out laughing, thinking to themselves that their young master's eloquence had improved so much, with a mouth like this, he could even run for the position of scolding god.
