Chapter 15: Murder
The old shopkeeper laughed dryly, nodded hurriedly and said, "No, no, I'll grab the medicine for Gongzi immediately, oh, by the way, the hemp cordyceps in this second medicine, the pharmacy doesn't have it, you see..."
"It's okay, catch some first, and where is the cordyceps sold?" Qi Tian asked.
The old shopkeeper shook his head in embarrassment, and said: "All the pharmacies do not sell Cordyceps, because Cordyceps is rarely used in medicine, and where it grows, it is often accompanied by extremely ferocious beasts, I know that there is a place with Cordyceps, and there is a Yunwang Mountain on the northward road of Gongzi out of Yunhai City, there should be there, but Gongzi should think twice, it is very dangerous there." β
Qi Tian nodded and said "thank you".
Soon, the medicinal materials were all caught, and Qi Tian bought some more potions and pounding utensils in the medicine shop, and prepared to return to Xia Mansion.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the pharmacy, the originally peaceful streets and alleys suddenly panicked.
An extremely domineering voice came, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
Qi Tian followed the sound and saw a young man in a white robe, riding a blood-colored horse, galloping unscrupulously on the street.
The people on the street were so frightened that they retreated to both sides, and for a while, the screams came and went.
Qi Tian frowned, and said secretly, this is a young man who is too arrogant, there are so many people on the street, they dare to gallop wildly, what should they do if they bump into the people?
This is like the rich second generation racing in a downtown area, without regard for the safety of passers-by!
Suddenly, a hawker on the street with a basket on his shoulder, due to the lack of timely evasion, screamed "ah", was directly knocked down by the blood-colored horse, flew more than five meters away before stopping, and the fruit in the basket spilled all over the ground.
But something even more tragic happened...
The Scarlet Horse was too fast to stop, and it actually stepped directly on the peddler!
"Ahh
"It's so miserable, this leg is stepped on like this, it's basically over. β
"This peddler is so pitiful, woe falls from heaven, and he will become lame in the future. β
"Alas, the poor people mourn everything, and I only hope that the man can compensate him for more money. β
.........
The surrounding people watched the peddler's screams of pain, and they all looked at him with sympathy.
Qi Tian frowned and walked over, only to see that the peddler's right leg pants were covered with blood, and his calf was lying on the ground in an incredible bend.
Obviously, the blood-colored horse just stepped on the peddler's right leg, and judging by the injury, this right leg is considered useless.
"It's really a short-sighted thing, didn't you see that Young Master Ben was trying a horse? Shocked Young Master Ben's sweaty and bloody BMW, can you afford it?" The boy who was riding the blood-colored horse stopped, turned around and walked towards the vendor on the ground.
Qi Tian frowned, this person is too lawless, hurting people, and even blamed others for startling his horse, when did animals become more valuable than people?
"Childe, you injured someone, why do you blame others?"
"Yes, can you be so domineering if you have money?"
"Report to the official!
.........
The onlookers couldn't see it, and they all looked at the horseman with hatred.
The horseman was about twenty years old, and although he was young, his face was a little sickly pale, and there were bruises at the corners of his eyes, which was obviously a sign of long-term excessive drinking.
I saw that the horseman glanced around, and in the face of the accusations of the people, he did not feel half guilty, but his expression became more and more arrogant, "I am the third young master of the Li family, Li Zelong, you want to report to the official? I will accompany you at any time! I just don't know if he will enter the cell or me in the end!"
The people who accused him just now were suddenly like eggplants beaten by widows, and their faces were a little frightened, it seems that Li Zelong's notoriety is still very famous.
Qi Tian hurriedly pulled Liu'er to hide his figure among the people.
"Young master, don't pull me, let Liu'er beat him to death!" Liu'er said angrily.
Qi Tian looked at Liu'er holding the little powder, patted her on the back, and said in a low voice: "Kill him?
Liu'er was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "Then what should we do?"
The corners of Qi Tian's mouth were raised, a bright light flashed in his narrow phoenix eyes, and his index finger was compared to a silent gesture on his lips, signaling Liu'er not to say more, and then looked at Li Zelong, who was still riding on a horse.
"It hurts me... It hurts me... My legsβ" the vendor on the ground kept wailing.
"Hmph, that's unlucky. Li Zelong scolded, escaped a few silver coins from his arms, and threw them to the ground, "This should be your medical expenses!"
With that, he tugged the reins, turned the horse's head, and continued to gallop forward.
"It's so arrogant! It's so lawless!"
"There's no way, there are people in the Li family who are big officials in the imperial capital, and even Lord Wang Shouren has nothing to do with the Li family. β
"The Li family is rich and powerful, there is really no way..."
.........
The people watched the blood-colored horse gradually move away, and only then did they dare to complain.
Several old people, looking at the vendors who kept wailing on the ground, felt pity, and shouted to the Xia family pharmacy: "Shopkeeper He, come and save people!"
The old shopkeeper who had grabbed the medicine for Qi Tian before was standing at the door of the pharmacy, he had seen everything that had happened just now, and he was helpless in the face of the Li family's evil deeds, he sighed and walked towards the vendor on the ground.
He squatted on the vendor's injured right leg and, with a "thump", tore open his trouser leg.
"Ahh
"Alas, this miserable man can see that he lives on his legs, what will he do in the future!"
.........
I saw that the peddler's right calf had been completely deformed, and what was even more terrifying was that Bai Sensen's bones were like broken branches, and the broken bones pierced the skin and were exposed, which was very terrifying!
