In the live streaming room, the audience chatted away, the chat messages rolling by —
"Streamer is going to follow Wei Xiaobao to meet Hai Dafu! 23333"
"Hai Dafu is a martial arts expert!"
"Hai Dafu is nothing but a big shot in 'The Deer and the Cauldron.' In Mr. Jin's novels, each dynasty is worse than the last."
"Exactly! If Hai Dafu were to go to the Song Dynasty in 'The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber,' he would just be a second-rate character. He's only a big shot in 'The Deer and the Cauldron.'"
"Alright, stop arguing! Let's see who the streamer has chosen to play Hai Dafu?"
"Right, the streamer must be well-prepared, right?"
"The streamer is rich and does as he pleases. I have to ask again, is the streamer still recruiting actors? I want to join the team!"
...
Lin Yi followed Wei Xiaobao and arrived outside Hai Dafu's residence.
Wei Xiaobao whispered to Lin Yi, "Big Brother, when we meet Hai Dafu, don't say we are cousins. Just say we are good friends."
"Why?" Lin Yi asked, somewhat surprised, but he found it extremely amusing. Wei Xiaobao was clearly afraid of being exposed, after all, this kid wasn't the real Xiaoguai.
Now that the real Xiaoguai's "big brother" had come, if Hai Dafu asked a few questions, Wei Xiaobao wouldn't be able to answer and would be exposed immediately.
Wei Xiaobao chuckled and said, "Hai Dafu doesn't like those family relationships. He might get upset."
"Oh." Lin Yi nodded, seemingly understanding, and said, "Then I won't say anything. I'll just say we are good friends."
"Okay." Wei Xiaobao nodded and walked inside.
Lin Yi followed behind, finding it amusing. You little brat, just keep up the act! Wei Xiaobao, this kid, could lie without batting an eye, as if it were the truth.
If he hadn't known beforehand, he would definitely have been fooled by this kid.
It seems that Wei Xiaobao's success, from a small-time hoodlum to a position of power, wasn't without some skill. His greatest skill was his ability to act and deceive.
Just as they reached the door, they heard a coughing sound from inside.
Wei Xiaobao entered the room first, gesturing for Lin Yi to follow, and asked, "Sir, are you feeling better?"
"Better my ass!" Hai Dafu scolded, his ears twitching, and asked, "Who did you bring?"
Wei Xiaobao said, "This is a friend of mine. He did something wrong and is afraid of being punished, so he came to me for shelter."
He didn't even blink as he lied.
Hai Dafu nodded, saying indifferently, "Hmm."
Lin Yi also greeted, "Greetings, Sir Hai."
He thought to himself, this is Hai Dafu.
Hai Dafu — with a strange and mysterious personality, cold and cruel, carrying a significant mission entrusted to him by his master "Shunzhi."
The young emperor Kangxi's father "Shunzhi" was not actually dead. Due to the death of Empress Dong E, he was so grief-stricken that he renounced the world and became a monk on Wutai Mountain.
This was a huge secret, and almost everyone, including the young emperor Kangxi, believed Shunzhi was dead, unaware of this hidden truth.
Although Shunzhi became a monk, he did not abandon all his affairs. He still remembered the mysterious death of his beloved empress and instructed Hai Dafu to investigate secretly. He also authorized Hai Dafu to take action and kill the culprit, avenging Shunzhi.
This mission became the only meaning in Hai Dafu's life. He devoted himself entirely to it and, to deal with the ruthless enemy, took great risks to practice a special martial art to counter "Bone-Melting Palm," even at the cost of his own health, eventually mastering this extraordinary skill.
Lin Yi observed the Hai Dafu before him. He actually admired this old eunuch for his unwavering loyalty to his old master, his patient and meticulous nature, and so on.
Unfortunately, he met Wei Xiaobao, a kid with incredible luck, who blinded him and indirectly caused his death.
"This is the fate of those who oppose the protagonist!" Lin Yi sighed inwardly, but his expression remained unchanged.
In fact, he could now completely abandon Wei Xiaobao and "join" Hai Dafu.
He could fabricate an identity, claiming that "Shunzhi" from Wutai Mountain had sent him to the palace to help Hai Dafu investigate Empress Dong E's death, and he would immediately gain Hai Dafu's trust and become a confidant.
After all, the secret mission Shunzhi gave to Hai Dafu was a huge secret, unknown to outsiders, making it easy to gain trust.
In this way, Lin Yi and Hai Dafu would be on the same side. With such a powerful martial artist protecting him, combined with his "foresight," he could have whatever he wanted in the palace.
However, Lin Yi quickly abandoned this idea. If Shunzhi and Hai Dafu had any secret signals or agreements that he didn't know about, he would be in trouble.
Hai Dafu would likely kill him to silence him!
Better safe than sorry!
Despite the slight possibility, Lin Yi didn't want to take the risk. After all, if he lost, he would lose his life. It was better to stick with Wei Xiaobao for now.
Hai Dafu, of course, had no idea about Lin Yi's thoughts. If he did, it would have been chaos.
He nodded and said calmly, "Since you are Xiaoguai's friend, you can stay here. It's getting late, let's eat first!"
Lin Yi and Wei Xiaobao turned to see that the table in the inner hall was already set with four dishes and a soup.
Wei Xiaobao quickly went forward, helping the now blind Hai Dafu to the table, and Lin Yi followed.
Hai Dafu said indifferently, "Don't stand there, sit down and eat!"
Lin Yi and Wei Xiaobao sat down as instructed and started eating.
In the live streaming room, the audience, who had been watching, were already in high spirits —
"23333 There really is a Hai Dafu! Make Hai Dafu perform some light kung fu, like walking on water! Let us see something amazing!"
"Are you an idiot? Walking on water is something Qiu Qianren can do, not Hai Dafu!"
"Does it matter if it's Hai Dafu? Just make him perform some kung fu!"
"Stop arguing! The streamer hired actors, not to perform kung fu!"
"Speaking of which, the actor playing Hai Dafu has good acting skills. He must be a veteran actor. Why have I never seen him on TV before?"
"You're right. He must be a veteran actor, but I've never seen him. I wonder where the streamer found him."
"The streamer is rich and does as he pleases. Hiring a few actors is nothing."
"Exactly, if you have money, you can hire them too!"
"Damn, the streamer is eating with Hai Dafu! Just eat, don't drink the soup! According to the original story, the soup has slow-acting poison! 233333"
"23333 That's right! That's the slow-acting poison Hai Dafu gave to Wei Xiaobao. Streamer, don't drink it!"
"Exactly, just eat, don't drink the soup!"
"Speaking of which, I'm still hungry. I've been watching the streamer's live broadcast, and he's already eating! I'm so jealous! Ahhhh"
"I'm already eating instant noodles, but the streamer is having four dishes and a soup. I'm bowing to the rich!"
