A Valiant Life Chapter 513 - Slapping him profusely

w.a.n.g Ming Yang was sitting on the chair. He looked extremely different. He was looking out of the window into the city.

Then, he was breathing deeply and his four limbs seemed to have hardened. They were trembling.

“w.a.n.g Ming Yang, what are you doing?” Lin Fan said sternly.

He had heard of people being possessed by ghosts but he had never seen it before.

This was a common occurrence in the villages and the main reason for that was still unknown.

Some said that it was a mental illness and some said that these people were possessed by ghosts.

n.o.body had a complete explanation for the occurrences.

“I am not w.a.n.g Ming Yang. I am Zhao Shan,” w.a.n.g Ming Yang said. His tone had changed and it really seemed like he was possessed by a ghost.

Xu Zi Le said worriedly, “Brother Lin, what happened to Ming Yang?”

The others started to whisper amongst themselves.

“Did Chief w.a.n.g really get possessed by a ghost?”

“I think so.”

“How could it be? I thought ghosts only possessed those people who are plagued with illnesses? Chief w.a.n.g is so young. How could he be possessed by one?”

“That’s right but regardless, it could still happen.”

Lin Fan touched w.a.n.g Ming Yang’s forehead and arms. They both felt cold.

His body was fine.

Lin Fan’s medical skills were considered the best. He could tell if a person had a problem just with one touch. However, w.a.n.g Ming Yang didn’t have any problems at all.

If that was the case, something was wrong.

“Master Lin, I think Chief w.a.n.g really got possessed by a ghost. Should I get a professional here?” An employee asked.

Lin Fan remained silent. Then, he asked, “Zhao Shan, right? What do you want?”

Since w.a.n.g Ming Yang was believed to be possessed, Lin Fan wanted to ask him some questions as if he was really possessed.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang trembled. “I don’t want anything. I don’t want to leave. I want to stay here.”

Lin Fan said sternly, “You are not him. He is not you. Why are you staying here? Get lost!”

Zhao Shan shook his head, “I’m not leaving, I can’t bear to leave.”

Then, Lin Fan really couldn’t do anything about it.

He knew little about people being possessed by ghosts. It was something that couldn’t be explained by modern science.

Then, he took out his phone and searched online to see what to do about it.

He had to do it out of desperation. Although he didn’t know what was happening, he wanted to see how netizens solved the problem.

He was stunned after searching it online. There was a lot of news about it and many netizens shared about it.

He felt that one of the methods would work.

Lin Fan plucked a strand of hair from Xu Zi Le’s head and placed it in front of w.a.n.g Ming Yang. Then, he allowed w.a.n.g Ming Yang to take a breath before he swirled the strand of hair in front of him thrice in the clockwise direction and thrice more in the opposite direction.

The crowd was stunned and they didn’t know what Master Lin was doing. Did Master Lin know something about being possessed by a deity?

Xu Zi Le was dumbfounded. She could only rely on Brother Lin.

Lin Fan then pulled the hair in front of w.a.n.g Ming Yang and struck it with a finger. The strand of hair broke into two.

Huh?

Nothing happened.

Lin Fan felt that he had been pranked.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang had nothing wrong with him but he seemed mentally unsound. Lin Fan didn’t know what had happened.

He opened up the Encyclopedia’s knowledge cla.s.sifications and there was one about spirit possession. It was a small cla.s.sification but it was expensive. It was impossible to buy with his current Encyclopedic Points.

The Internet also had another method. If that didn’t work, he would have to temporarily borrow the Encyclopedia’s knowledge.

Xu Zi Le and the others stood there and looked but nothing happened. They were nervous and they wondered if Brother Lin could handle the situation.

However, they could only rely on Brother Lin.

Lin Fan took a deep breath and grabbed onto w.a.n.g Ming Yang’s collar. According to the Internet, one had to be stern. “Are you leaving or not?!”

“I am not leaving!” w.a.n.g Ming Yang shouted.

*slap*

Lin Fan slapped him. According to the Internet, if the ghost didn’t want to leave, one didn’t have to treat it nicely. He/she could start hitting the person until the ghost decided to leave.

“Are you leaving?”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang was stunned. It was as if he didn’t expect to be hit.

Lin Fan saw that there wasn’t a response. Hence, he slapped him consecutively on both sides of his face. He didn’t give him an opportunity to speak.

After more than ten slaps, Lin Fan said angrily, “Get lost now!”

Then, a miraculous thing happened. w.a.n.g Ming Yang’s eyes closed and his body froze. It was as if he had fallen asleep.

Lin Fan measured his pulse and checked that there wasn’t any problem with him.

However, the situation didn’t seem favorable. He didn’t know if the method had worked or not. If it didn’t work, he would have to unlock the ‘spirit possession’ cla.s.sification temporarily. Although it was expensive, he had no choice.

Xu Zi Le went forward, “Brother Lin, is he okay now?”

Lin Fan wasn’t sure. “I don’t know. We have to wait and see.”

After a period of time, w.a.n.g Ming Yang opened his eyes. When he saw Lin Fan in front of him, he asked, “Why are you here?”

When he heard that, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. That really worked.

Indeed, the fastest way to overcome it was to use force.

Xu Zi Le went to w.a.n.g Ming Yang, “Ming Yang, you scared me!”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang was in a daze. He didn’t know what had happened.

*hiss*

“Ouch, why does my face hurt so much? What happened just now?” w.a.n.g Ming Yang asked.

Lin Fan waved his hand at the other workers. “You guys can make a move first.”

They nodded and left the conference room.

Lin Fan pulled a stool over. He was curious and wanted to know if he had really gotten possessed by a ghost.

“Do you really not remember what just happened?” Lin Fan asked.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang shook his head, “I don’t remember anything but I know I got hit by someone. Why is my face swollen?”

“n.o.body hit you. It was a hallucination. Also, you got possessed by a ghost. You said you were Zhao Shan. Do you know who he is?” Lin Fan asked.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang’s face changed drastically when he heard that name.

Lin Fan knew that he really knew this man. At the same time, he was curious about why the ghost had possessed him.

Why would something like this happen in the modern society?

w.a.n.g Ming Yang looked at Lin Fan, “You said I was possessed by a ghost called Zhao Shan? That…”

Lin Fan said, “Just tell me your relations.h.i.+p with Zhao Shan. I don’t really believe in these things. However, I am quite interested to find out about it after seeing what had happened earlier. I feel that it was weird.”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang remained silent for a moment. Then, he nodded, “I know Zhao Shan. He was my childhood friend. However, he died more than ten years ago. We went to the river to swim but he drowned. I have always remembered this incident and I feel like I caused his death…”

Lin Fan continued listening and Xu Zi Le didn’t expect w.a.n.g Ming Yang to have faced such an incident.

Then, Lin Fan stood up. “It’s okay now. However, I think you should go back to the village and visit Zhao Shan’s family. Since you were possessed by him, I don’t think he did it for fun. Something must have happened. If something happened to his family, you should help them out.”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang nodded. “Why do you know so much about this?”

Lin Fan chuckled, “There’s Baidu, why wouldn’t I know about it? I’ll head back first. Have a good rest.”

“What exactly happened to my face? Why do I feel like I got beaten up by someone?” w.a.n.g Ming Yang asked curiously.

Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders. “Anyway, I wasn’t the one that hit you. You should ask someone else.”

…

After leaving, Lin Fan started to think about what had happened. It wasn’t a mental issue. It could be that w.a.n.g Ming Yang had always been stressed and guilty about causing Zhao Shan’s death. In the long run, it caused him to develop a split personality which would be activated randomly. Could that be the case?

However, that was just Lin Fan’s guess. He still didn’t know the exact details.

If he traded his Encyclopedic Points for the ‘spirit possession’ minor cla.s.sification knowledge, he would definitely understand it. However, it was extremely expensive. Only an idiot would trade for that.
