Uncle Lin, holding a compass, moved with peculiar steps.
He almost roamed the entire courtyard, and upon returning to his original spot, he stomped his feet forcefully, tossing a piece of jade that shimmered with exquisite light onto the ground!
Instantly, everyone felt a warmth spread through their bodies.
Subconsciously, everyone looked up at the sky. They saw that while other places were still covered in dark clouds, the rain in the courtyard had significantly lessened!
And it kept getting smaller, as if it had the power to disperse the dark clouds!
"Uncle, you're awesome! You've defied heaven, you've actually pushed aside the dark clouds!"
Lin Shuai Nan jumped up in surprise. Duan Chen Feng, who was beneath him, struggled out. Seeing that the rain had indeed lessened, Duan Chen Feng's mind cleared up a bit, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope for survival!
"Too, too good, too good!"
Duan Chen Feng also shouted ecstatically.
Meanwhile, Duan Chen Yang, held by Ling Feng, looked at the changes in the sky in disbelief, his head shaking like a rattle drum.
Clearly, Duan Chen Yang could not accept what was happening before his eyes!
This was no longer a matter of deviating from the script; his meticulously prepared script had been completely rewritten by someone else!
And just as Ling Feng and Yang Fei's expressions relaxed.
Pfft!
Uncle Lin suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his body swaying, almost falling to the ground.
Lin Shuai Nan quickly supported him, repeatedly asking with concern, "Uncle, are you alright? You've been spitting too much blood today! Don't die!"
"Cough, cough, shut up! I'm not dead yet! Get Duan Chen Feng over here, quickly!"
Uncle Lin coughed violently, urging impatiently!
Clatter!
As Uncle Lin's words fell, Duan Chen Feng's body also dropped directly beside Uncle Lin.
Uncle Lin was slightly stunned. His peripheral vision caught Ling Feng's retracting movement. It turned out Ling Feng had simply thrown Duan Chen Feng over like a dead dog.
Uncle Lin nodded gratefully, then sternly ordered the now-rising Duan Chen Feng, "Quickly, gather everyone here. Your Duan family's old mansion can't be protected anymore! Now, we can only hope to take refuge here until midnight!"
"Ah? Oh, I'm going now!"
Duan Chen Feng scrambled to his feet. It was impossible to save the Duan family's old mansion. Although this was a huge blow to Duan Chen Feng,
earlier, a bolt of lightning had already caused sparks to fly from the ancestral hall in the backyard.
With the ancestral hall gone, what else was there to be reluctant about in this Duan family mansion?
As Duan Chen Feng led people, dragging everyone out in the rain.
Lin Shuai Nan also went to carry Bai Yun Yan out. Ba Yi Lan followed behind, running. Bai Yun Yan was wearing a raincoat, looking dazed, but his eyes were open, seeming to have regained some consciousness!
Seeing this, Ling Feng's expression turned grim.
At this moment, Bai Yun Yan should not have woken up. Although Bai Yun Yan looked dazed and unharmed, this indicated a change in the toxicity within him!
"Brother Ling Feng, please take a look at my uncle. When the lightning struck earlier, he suddenly woke up, and then he just stayed still and silent, as if he could hear me but couldn't speak!"
Ba Yi Lan was already crying, having been by Bai Yun Yan's side. She was very aware of the abnormality in his condition.
Ling Feng handed Duan Chen Yang, who was by his side, to Yang Fei and stepped forward to examine him.
Indeed, his condition had worsened. The toxins were now attacking his brain, paralyzing some of Bai Yun Yan's nerves. If this continued, even if Bai Yun Yan was saved,
he would likely become a disabled person suffering from a stroke!
"It's the magnetic field changes caused by the surrounding feng shui formation that are affecting Elder Bai's condition. Put him down, I need to administer acupuncture immediately!"
Ling Feng commanded in a deep voice.
Lin Shuai Nan dared not delay and laid Bai Yun Yan flat on the ground.
At this moment, the surroundings were already in chaos. Over two hundred people from the Duan family had gathered in the front courtyard, making it very crowded.
Moreover, everyone felt that something was wrong, and they were extremely terrified.
Some people who already had underlying conditions saw their conditions rapidly worsen.
These changes made everyone even more flustered, and they couldn't keep their mouths shut.
"What on earth is going on?"
"Lightning strikes! This is the Duan family being punished by heaven!"
"We're finished, we've been implicated by the Duan family this time!"
"Who says not? So many people died in the Duan family today. I heard Madam Ma Su Yuan also died!"
"Wuwu, I just saw the ancestral hall in the backyard struck by lightning, and it's still smoking. Look... alas, I wonder what sins the Duan family has committed!"
"Wow! Are we going to die too? I don't want to die!"
Such voices continuously emerged from the surrounding crowd, making everyone more agitated.
Only Duan Chen Yang, looking at the scene before him, had a ferocious and ecstatic expression. He was dressed as a beggar, and after being captured by Ling Feng, he was even more disheveled. At this moment, he smiled at the crowd, like a malevolent ghost!
"Hey, look quickly, who is that person?"
"My goodness, if you hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have noticed. Why does this person look so much like President Duan!"
"Could it be President Duan's illegitimate son?"
"Is your head where your butt is? This guy is older than President Duan, how could he be President Duan's illegitimate son!"
"That's President Duan's illegitimate father..."
With more people, their courage grew. These people were extremely fearful of the heavenly might, but towards the ghost-like Duan Chen Yang before them, they only saw him as a rather ugly beggar.
Not only were they not very afraid, but because Duan Chen Yang distracted them, they were not as panicked as before.
Duan Chen Yang's face turned red with anger. He opened his mouth and roared at everyone, cursing incessantly.
Unfortunately, Ling Feng had sealed his voice earlier. Even if he screamed until his throat burst, no one would hear his curses at this moment!
"He! It's him! He's actually still alive!"
At this moment, an old man suddenly exclaimed with wide eyes.
This person was the Duan family's gardener, who had worked for the Duan family his entire life and was now seventy years old, living in retirement.
The gardener naturally knew what had happened thirty years ago.
"Uncle Wang, who is this person?"
"Yes, Uncle Wang, you look like you've seen a ghost. How could this guy possibly have any relation to President Duan?"
"One is the richest man, the other is a beggar. How could there be any connection?"
