Rebirth and Rise: 1990

Hu Yuan woke up and inexplicably found himself in someone else's body. Not only that, but this man, who shared his name, also had a wife and a cute daughter. Hu Yuan frowned. Since he was here,...

Chapter 101 Killing a Person

Hu Yuan stared in shock at the bronze fish, "This...this is a snake-browed bronze fish! I never imagined such a thing actually existed!"

Hu Yuan looked at Wilde beside him with eyes as sharp as knives and asked, "Uncle Wilde, where did you get this thing?"

“My son got this bronze fish from abroad, so what? Hehehe,” Wilde said with a laugh!

Hu Yuan looked at Wilde, shook his head, and said, "Uncle Wilde, how about giving me a flashlight?"

Oscar Wilde took out a small flashlight and gave it to Hu Yuan.

This bronze fish is a keepsake of Wang Zanghai, recording his secrets! The record details his experiences being captured by the King of Wannu and forced to build his mausoleum, with the most crucial information being his discovery of the truth about the King of Wannu!

"Uncle De, you're a soil scorpion, right?" Hu Yuan asked in a voice only the two of them could hear after he finished speaking!

Oscar Wilde's smile vanished as he looked at Hu Yuan, his eyes filled with shock and threat.

Hu Yuan ignored it and instead shone his flashlight into the mouth of the snake-browed bronze fish!

Hu Yuan discovered a line in the mouth of the snake-browed bronze fish. The line was so well hidden that Hu Yuan probably wouldn't have noticed it if it weren't for the reflection of the flashlight beam!

Hu Yuan looked at Wilde excitedly and said, "Uncle Wilde, give me a needle quickly."

Oscar Wilde was puzzled, but he did as he was told, and had someone hand Hu Yuan a needle.

Hu Yuan used a needle to sever the innermost thread! Just then, the head of the snake-browed bronze fish collapsed!

Oscar Wilde's face was grim, and he forced back his anger as he asked, "Young Brother Hu Yuan, this...?"

Hu Yuan waved his hand without saying a word. Then, he put the fish head down and gently pressed the valve hidden under it.

At this moment, a miracle occurred. The bronze fish with snake-shaped eyebrows exploded instantly, and then an imperial seal appeared from the shards!

Everyone present was shocked! Hu Yuan took the jade seal down and handed it to Wilde, saying, "Uncle Wilde, scorpions are beneficial insects. If it's just for the sake of uncovering secrets, I support you!"

Oscar Wilde patted Hu Yuan on the back and said with a smile, "Brother Yuan, are you interested in exploring the secrets of Wang Zanghai with me?"

Hu Yuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, Uncle De, but I'll still not go! Thank you."

Oscar Wilde smiled, said "okay," and dismissed Hu Yuan.

Wang Man watched her husband sit down and asked, "Honey, who is he? And why did he call you?"

Hu Yuan sat on the stool and said with a smile, "Uncle De just wanted me to see his treasure. It's nothing. I don't know much about Uncle De's background either."

Although Hu Yuan didn't know who Oscar Wilde was, he knew in his heart that Wilde's background was definitely not simple. In this era, anyone who could become a Scorpion was basically from a good background!

As Hu Yuan was thinking, a group of people shoved him forward, eager to have him join their ranks!

Hu Yuan shook his head and said to these people, "Everyone, I'm just a small entrepreneur with no great abilities. Thank you for your kindness, bosses. I appreciate it!" After saying that, Hu Yuan pulled Wang Man and the mother and daughter, Tuan Tuan.

Hu Yuan and Wang Man didn't go home. Instead, they went to a real estate agency.

Wang Man looked in the direction Hu Yuan had gone and asked, "Where are you going? Aren't we going home?"

"We're moving to a new place," Hu Yuan said casually.

Hu Yuan knew in his heart that today's events had made him a hot commodity, and with Li Bing's harassment, they had no choice but to move!

Wang Man was very upset and asked, "Isn't our house perfectly fine? Why are we moving? Even if you have money, you can't spend it like this."

Hu Yuan shook his head and said, "Tuantuan is growing, and I don't want her to have feelings of inferiority when she grows up. Moving to a new house is for her sake."

Although Wang Man was reluctant to part with him, she felt it was worth it for Tuantuan!

Hu Yuan brought Tuantuan and her mother to the real estate agency!

Hu Yuan and his group were blocked by security guards at the door before they could even enter.

The security guards, judging from Hu Yuan and his group's attire, assumed they couldn't afford the property here and were there to cause trouble!

Hu Yuan walked up to the security guard and asked, "What? We're here to buy a house, but we can't even come in?"

The security guard laughed so hard upon hearing that he almost seemed to be having an epileptic seizure!

"Hahaha, you're going to buy a house? Hahaha, that's hilarious!"

Hu Yuan looked at the security guard next to him and sneered, "Call your manager out here!"

Just then, Murong Feng walked out of the real estate company.

"Xiao Yuan, it's you! Are you here to buy a house?" Murong Feng asked, looking at Hu Yuan.

"General Manager Murong, what are you doing here?" Hu Yuan didn't have much of a liking for Murong Feng, so he didn't say much.

Murong Feng looked at Hu Yuan with suspicion and said, "This is my company."

At this moment, the security guard next to him was dumbfounded. Who was he mocking? Someone who would even earn the respect of his boss!

Hu Yuan glanced at the security guard and said, "Oh, Mr. Murong's company. I've been wanting to buy an apartment, but this security guard keeps refusing to let me in, thinking I can't afford it. Is this Mr. Murong's way of treating guests?"

Murong Feng glared at the security guard and said, "Security Guard Liu, you're so arrogant! Is this how I taught you? You don't need to come in tomorrow."

The security guard was speechless at Murong Xue's words. He glared at Hu Yuan with hostility, believing that he had lost his job entirely because of the man in front of him!

He grew angrier the more he thought about it, and grabbed his baton, ready to hit Hu Yuan!

"Little Yuan, watch out!"

However, before the security guard could even get close, Hu Yuan kicked him away!

The security guard was taken aback by Hu Yuan's ruthlessness. Hu Yuan walked up to the guard, slowly squatted down, patted the guard's face, and said, "You think you lost your job entirely because of me?"

"Isn't that right? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been fired by the boss! It's all your fault, all your fault, I'm going to kill you!"

"Heh," Hu Yuan sneered, then continued, "You have a problem with your hospitality, are you blaming me or do you think I'm easy to bully?"

The security guard was so angry he gritted his teeth, but he was powerless to do anything about it!

A highly capable person is more prone to confusion when facing the unknown. This is because they may doubt their own abilities and consequently experience anxiety. In reality, no one truly knows their own limits—except, of course, fools like that don't count.

Knowing he was in the wrong, the security guard slunk away. Around the corner, he picked up his phone and dialed an unknown number: "Hey, I'll grant your request, but you have to kill someone for me!"
