Transmigrated into a Heartthrob Novel and Went OOC Chapter 40

 Chapter 40

Song Lianyi was silenced by him and couldn’t respond. Fang Chaozhou thought for a moment but didn’t undo the silence spell on him. Instead, he started to study the copper ball himself.

He shook the copper ball in his hand and unexpectedly heard a sound.

It seemed like there were copper beads inside.

“Is it really Mianziling? It’s somewhat different from what the book described.” Fang Chaozhou played with the object in his hand and suddenly noticed a tiny switch on it that could be pressed.

Fang Chaozhou glanced at Song Lianyi, seeing that he was securely bound, and tentatively pressed the switch.

The copper sphere in his hand suddenly started vibrating, even emitting electric currents that made Fang Chaozhou’s fingers tingle. He couldn’t hold onto it and dropped the copper sphere on the ground.

Even after it fell on the ground, the vibrations didn’t stop.

It kept vibrating, giving off a tinkling sound.

Fang Chaozhou: “…”

So, even the cultivation world has such high-end things.

He picked up the copper sphere and walked towards Song Lianyi. As Fang Chaozhou approached her, Song Lianyi couldn’t hide the fear in his eyes, his face even turning pale.

Fang Chaozhou examined Song Lianyi’s expression and slowly placed his hand on the other’s knee. As soon as his hand touched, he could feel the person trembling slightly.

Song Lianyi felt fearful, confirming that she had guessed correctly.

In a moment, Fang Chaozhou changed his mind. He decided to retaliate in kind and make Song Lianyi feel disgusted whenever he saw him, just like Xue Danrong did to Song Lianyi in the original work.

He looked at Song Lianyi and curled his lips slightly. “I almost forgot something.”

Fang Chaozhou stood up straight, unfastened his belt, and blindfolded Song Lianyi’s eyes. For effect, he deliberately imitated some of the perversions described in novels.

While blindfolding, he first held Song Lianyi’s chin with one hand, forcing him to lift his head. When he saw the panic hidden in his eyes, Fang Chaozhou let out a faint laugh before tying the blindfold with the belt.

As he tied the knot, Fang Chaozhou intentionally blew near Song Lianyi’s ear, then said, “Miss Song, since our last parting, I have been thinking about you day and night. Today, I finally have my wish fulfilled.”

After saying that, Fang Chaozhou felt somewhat disgusted with himself and couldn’t help but furrow his brows. Fortunately, Song Lianyi’s eyes were blindfolded, so he couldn’t see her expression.

When deprived of sight, one tends to feel fear involuntarily.

After blindfolding Song Lianyi, Fang Chaozhou looked at the copper beads that were still vibrating in his hand and decisively turned off the switch.

Let’s forget about using that on the rear end.

Fang Chaozhou threw the copper sphere into Song Lianyi’s box, attempting to find something useful inside. Soon, he came across a stick he had never seen before.

The stick was about the length of a forearm, pitch black all over, with a small switch at the end. Fang Chaozhou pressed it down, and the unintentional hand gripping the stick’s head almost got numbed, causing both tingling and pain.

He immediately retracted his hand, looking at the object in his hand with surprise.

Wasn’t this the ancient version of an electric baton?

Indeed, it was a cultivation novel written by a modern author. It contained all sorts of strange things. He wondered where the electric current in the stick came from.

Fang Chaozhou looked at Song Lianyi and came up with an idea. He approached Song Lianyi, squatted down, deliberately let out a low chuckle, and then proceeded to remove his shoes and socks.

While taking off Song Lianyi’s shoes and socks, Fang Chaozhou clearly felt his resistance. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Fang Chaozhou uttered a classic line of perversion, “The more you struggle, the happier I become, Miss Song.”

After finishing his words, Fang Chaozhou had removed both shoes and socks from Song Lianyi’s feet.

It must be said that Song Lianyi, the expert cross-dresser, showed no flaws in his appearance. For example, his left foot in Fang Chaozhou’s hand was fair and flawless, with neatly trimmed nails that were a vibrant shade of red. It looked like a woman’s foot in every way.

If Fang Chaozhou hadn’t read the original work, he would never have suspected that Song Lianyi was, in fact, a genuine man.

Fang Chaozhou aimed the stick at the sole of Song Lianyi’s foot and pressed the switch. As soon as the switch was turned on, the foot in his hand visibly trembled. He had anticipated this, so he firmly grasped Song Lianyi’s ankle, preventing him from struggling free.

He didn’t use any immobilization technique; he wanted Song Lianyi to experience this sense of suffocation.

He could struggle all he wanted, but he couldn’t break free.

That was how those perverts in the novels did it.

But does it really make someone feel more suffocated?

Fang Chaozhou wasn’t sure, but the predecessors in perversion had all done it this way, so he followed suit.

Song Lianyi couldn’t break free, couldn’t escape, and even had his eyes covered, rendering him unable to make a sound. He furrowed his brow, desperately trying to endure, but the stick was no ordinary item—it increased the electric current in waves.

After another surge, Song Lianyi couldn’t help but lift his head. His slender neck tensed like a strangled swan. He gritted his teeth, tiny beads of sweat forming on his forehead. A faint blush appeared on his fair, jade-like face, and even his breathing became heavy.

Fang Chaozhou watched as the veins on Song Lianyi’s instep bulged, hesitated for a moment, and then turned off the switch of the stick.

This kind of tormenting activity was truly not something an ordinary person could handle.

He released Song Lianyi’s foot, performed a cleansing spell on his hand and the stick, and then stood up to put the stick back into Song Lianyi’s box. However, he unexpectedly noticed a small wooden puppet in the corner of the box.

The puppet had no facial features and looked like an ordinary wooden carving.

Fang Chaozhou looked at the puppet and couldn’t help but reach out and pick it up.

For some reason, he felt a liking for this puppet. But why was this seemingly ordinary puppet in Song Lianyi’s box, among all the oddities? Among them, this puppet seemed the most normal.

Out of curiosity, Fang Chaozhou couldn’t help but ask Song Lianyi about the puppet. He wanted to know what it was used for. So, he untied the belt covering Song Lianyi’s eyes, and his body was still trembling, his gaze somewhat unfocused.

“Miss Song, what is this?”

Fang Chaozhou shook the puppet in front of Song Lianyi’s eyes. In order to get an answer from him, he released the silence spell. At the same time, he cast a barrier on the second floor to prevent Song Lianyi’s maidservant from coming upstairs.

Song Lianyi took several shallow breaths before raising his eyes to look at Fang Chaozhou. His long eyelashes trembled, but he remained silent.

Seeing Song Lianyi’s reaction, Fang Chaozhou couldn’t help but think that he might have gone too far with the bullying. He immediately decided to return the puppet to Song Lianyi, saying, “Sorry, I won’t ask anymore. Here’s the puppet back, Song Lianyi.”

He stuffed the puppet back into Song Lianyi’s hand. However, at that moment, he felt a sudden pain in the palm of his hand. Song Lianyi only had time to angrily exclaim “Fang Chaozhou” before he disappeared, leaving the chair empty and the ribbon slipping down to the ground.

As the puppet forcefully placed in Song Lianyi’s hand fell to the ground, it made a crisp “thud” sound.

Upon realizing that Song Lianyi had vanished, Fang Chaozhou immediately looked around. There were no fluctuations of spiritual energy nearby. If someone had rescued Song Lianyi, he should have been able to sense it.

He searched the surroundings, and his eyes inadvertently glanced at the fallen puppet on the ground. Initially, he casually glanced at it, but then he suddenly froze.

Wait a minute.

Fang Chaozhou picked up the puppet from the ground and was astonished to see that it now had facial features.

But just a moment ago, this puppet clearly had no features.

What was going on?

Thinking of a possibility, Fang Chaozhou didn’t care about the maidservant downstairs, who belonged to Song Lianyi. He dispelled the barrier and headed downstairs. Upon hearing the footsteps, the maidservant thought his young master had come down.

“You finally came down, Young Master. We still need to go to the next shop… Wait, it’s you? Where is our young master?”

The maidservant saw Fang Chaozhou, who was neatly dressed, and her gaze became wary. He immediately reached for his weapon. Seeing her reaction, Fang Chaozhou quickly raised the puppet in his hand and said, “Don’t be hasty. Do you know this puppet?”

The maidservant caught a glimpse of the puppet in Fang Chaozhou’s hand, and the weapon in her hand clattered to the ground. Her voice trembled as she spoke, “It… It has facial features now? What… What did you do? Where is our young master?”

“Gone,” Fang Chaozhou awkwardly chuckled, then cautiously asked, “Can this puppet seal people?”

Fang Chaozhou guessed it right.

The puppet is called the “Mo Puppet.” It can seal people, and the sealing method is extremely simple. Just place the puppet in the person’s hand and shout their name.

No spiritual power activation was required to seal the person inside. However, there was a prerequisite: the cultivator must be in a weakened state and unable to resist the Mo Puppet.

While sealing a person, the Mo Puppet also cuts the skin of the person being named, drawing blood from it to complete the sealing process.

Upon hearing the maidservant’s words, Fang Chaozhou flipped his hand that had held the puppet, and indeed, there was a thin wound in his palm.

“You’ve sealed our young master,” the maidservant said with a sob in her voice. “How can I explain this to the Abbess when I go back? The Abbess will definitely kill me.”

Seeing her cry, Fang Chaozhou could only comfort her, “Please don’t cry. I didn’t intentionally seal him. Tell me how to release him. Once he’s released, your Abbess won’t punish you.”

The maidservant choked back a few sobs, her nose turning red. “Releasing him is complicated. You’ll need to feed the Mo Puppet with your blood for a month. The true purpose of the Mo Puppet is not to seal people but to imprison someone you love, freezing them at the age you desire. They won’t be able to leave you.”

After the Mo Puppet seals a person, if it was placed in water on the same night, the next day it will transform into a human, with the sealed person’s soul residing within. However, the physical age of the body will only be two or three years old.

Afterward, every five days, the physical age will increase by four or five years, and during this time, the Mo Puppet’s owner needs to feed it with blood to help it grow.

The owner of the Mo Puppet can choose to stop feeding it blood once it reaches a certain age. In doing so, the Mo Puppet will remain frozen at that age.

Without cultivation, the person will remain forever youthful and unable to leave the Mo Puppet’s owner. If they try to leave, they will revert to being a puppet. And if they are separated for more than three days, the features of the puppet will gradually disappear until it becomes a genuine puppet, and the sealed person can no longer come out.

To release the person, the Mo Puppet’s owner needs to continuously feed it blood until it grows, feed it for a full month, and then destroy the Mo Puppet. Only then can the sealed person be released.

The maidservant knew she couldn’t defeat Fang Chaozhou, and she was in the capital city. Even if she wanted to ask the Abbess of Fengyue Pavilion for help, it would take at least seven to eight days. At that time, she feared that their young master would no longer be alive. So she had no choice but to plead with Fang Chaozhou.

Previously, she had witnessed the illusions that Fang Chaozhou experienced in the incense burner. She felt that someone who could possess such illusions and see through them couldn’t be a despicable person.

If he were truly despicable and had sealed their young master, he would have left through the window on the second floor instead of coming to ask her.

The maidservant couldn’t be completely certain, but now she could only take a gamble.

In reality, she didn’t want to inform the Abbess about this matter. The Abbess doted on the young master the most, and if she found out that he had been sealed, even if he was eventually unharmed, the maidservant would be punished severely for not protecting him properly. The punishment would involve stripping her cultivation and reducing her to an ordinary person before beating her to death with a cudgel, all while keeping her conscious.

She had witnessed the punishment before, and the screams still haunted her to this day.

The previous maidservant who served the young master suffered the same fate.

Upon hearing the maidservant’s words and looking at the Mo Puppet in his hand, Fang Chaozhou realized that he would have to keep Song Lianyi with him for a month, feeding him blood.

If he had known this earlier, he wouldn’t have bothered with such methods, but since he had already sealed him, he had to release Song Lianyi first.

“Understood. I will nourish him with blood for a month. By the way, how much blood is needed? Is a bowlful enough?” Fang Chaozhou asked.

The maidservant quickly shook her head. “No, that much is not needed. Just a little bit, a few drops will suffice.”

Upon hearing this, Fang Chaozhou handed the Mo Puppet to the maidservant. “Then you should take him to the Ye Residence in the capital every day to find me.”

But the maidservant didn’t accept it. “The Mo Puppet cannot leave your side. During the month, if it is separated from you for more than fifteen minutes, it will revert back to being a puppet. It must stay by your side, absorbing the spiritual power around you to maintain its soul.”

Fang Chaozhou hadn’t expected this. The hand he had extended could only be retracted. “Then… I can only inconvenience you to stay with us.”

However, to his surprise, the maidservant shook her head again. “I can’t stay with you for the time being. The Abbess instructed me to investigate the account books in the capital as soon as possible. I have only finished checking one household so far. If I’m too slow, the Abbess will definitely notice.”

As she finished speaking, a white smoke enveloped her, and when the smoke dissipated, the maid servant’s face transformed into Song Lianyi’s face.

She pleaded with Fang Chaozhou, her eyes filled with hope. “Master Fang, I can only assume the appearance of our young master to investigate the account books. So, I can only entrust our young master to you. As soon as I finish checking the books, I will come find you immediately.”

Fang Chaozhou didn’t understand why the other party was trusting him with Song Lianyi, but faced with such a plea, he could only agree.

“Alright.”

“Thank you, Master Fang. I knew it. Someone who could remain clear-headed in an illusion must be a good person,” the maidservant said, turning her sorrow into a smile.

But Fang Chaozhou could only awkwardly smile. To tell the truth, if it weren’t for the first three illusions inexplicably disappearing, he would never have been able to escape in this lifetime.

After leaving the Rouge Shop, Fang Chaozhou returned to the Ye Residence.

As expected, Hu Xiang had made all the servants in the main courtyard leave. It was now empty, allowing Fang Chaozhou to move freely. Following the maid servant’s instructions, he found a basin and filled it with water, then placed the Mo Puppet inside.

The maidservant had said that the puppet would transform into a human after soaking for a few hours.

In the afternoon, Fang Chaozhou and Hu Xiang entered the palace, and of course, he didn’t forget to bring the Mo Puppet along. He waited until nightfall when his original body’s father fell asleep before leaving the palace.

Upon returning to the Ye Residence, the first thing he did was place the wooden puppet from his embrace into the basin of water.

Once he did that, Fang Chaozhou paid it no further attention. He bathed, changed his clothes, and sat on the bed, flipping through the medical books he had specially packed from the Tian Shui Sect’s library.

He wanted to see if he could cure his original body’s father’s illness. Although the man was already in the throes of death, Fang Chaozhou still wanted to give it a try.

Before leaving the Tian Shui Sect, he had plundered many medicinal pills from Du Yunxi, but he didn’t dare to recklessly administer them to his original body’s father, fearing that they might have adverse effects instead of providing any benefit.

Late into the night, Fang Chaozhou started to feel tired. He placed the half-read medical book beside his pillow, climbed into bed, and fell asleep.

When he woke up, he felt someone hitting his arm.

Fang Chaozhou, still groggy, opened his eyes to see a round-faced child with rosy cheeks and teary eyes hitting him. The child’s small arm swung with even more force, as if he wanted to kill a cultivator with his tiny hands. The child’s voice was whiny and childish as he shouted, “Fang Chaozhou, I’m going to kill you!”

However, upon hearing his own childish voice, the child clearly paused for a moment. Then, tears welled up in his eyes, and his lips pouted as if he felt extremely wronged.
