Chapter Twenty-Eight: Encountering Robbers on the Road

Xiao Er brought a cold dish and a jar of good wine to Ning Lin.

"You don't understand the society of the human race! Fists are important here, but there is something more powerful than fists!" Ning Lin said to Xian'er in the sea of knowledge.

"What's that?"

"Haven't you heard a saying? Money can make the devil grind! As long as money opens the way, there is no problem that cannot be solved!"

Ning Lin threw Xiao Er a silver coin, Xiao Er grabbed the silver coin, smiled like a flower on his face, and nodded to Ning Lin again and again.

"Ask you something, and there will be a reward for answering it!"

"Childe, you say, as long as I know, I promise to know everything!" Xiao Er carefully pocketed the silver coins, which was a few days' salary!

"Have you heard of Ningjiazhuang?"

"Ningjiazhuang?" Xiao Er frowned, thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he lowered his voice: "Childe is talking about Ningjiazhuang in Hongshi Town? The villain knows something! But I heard that Ningjiazhuang was destroyed two years ago, and more than 100 people in the village were buried in the fire......

"Do you know who did it?" Ning Lin hurriedly asked.

"This ......"

Ning Lin took out another gold coin, slapped it on the table, and looked at Xiao Er without speaking.

"Childe, the villain is just a shopkeeper, how can he know about such a thing!" Shopkeeper had a bitter face, looking at the gold coins on the table, which was equivalent to his salary for several months, but unfortunately he could see it, and he couldn't get it!

"This gold is rewarding you, help me inquire. I'll be coming over for dinner these days, and if I have a clue, I'll be thankful!"

"Thank you, Childe!" Xiao Er hurriedly put away the gold coins.

"This is what you said is more powerful than a fist?" Seeing Xiao Er leave, Xian'er couldn't help but ask.

"Gluttonous cat, in the human society, those who have strength are fools, and those who are rich are fat sheep, only strength plus money is the king! You wait, if those people in black really stop in Sand Water City, I promise to find clues!"

The braised lamb chops were soon on the table, and Xian'er couldn't care about talking nonsense with Ning Lin anymore, squatted on the table, grabbed the lamb chops and ate them. But I only ate one piece and put it down, and muttered without resentment: "It's a pity that these unicorns are not as delicious as you roasted in the Black Forest!"

"Hmph, can that be compared? Who am I? I dare to say that there is no one in this world whose cooking skills can compare to me!" Deeply influenced by the 5,000-year-old Chinese food culture, Ning Lin is an authentic foodie. Although the history of this world is millions of years, but the people of all ethnic groups are facing dangers all the time, so they have the heart to study eating and drinking?

Ning Lin also felt that the food on the table was difficult to swallow, poured a glass of wine and put it in front of him, and ate a few bites of food, mainly focusing on the diners around him, hoping to hear something useful.

After finishing the meal, Ning Lin didn't hear any clues, and left Dengxian Tower with a smile.

One afternoon, Ning Lin wandered around the major restaurants in the city, and there were more than a dozen silver coins scattered, and it was not until midnight that he left the last restaurant with Xian'er, ready to find an inn to settle in.

Although Sand River City is a large city within a radius of thousands of kilometers, there is no electricity in this world, and there are no street lights on the roadside. At night in the other world, most of the ordinary people still use oil lamps and candles.

Ning Lin walked on the dark road alone by starlight, his heart was turning, and he didn't know when he would find the clues to kill his relatives. It's really not good, so I can only try my luck in Kaizhou County!

"Boy, stop!" A strong man flashed in the shadows under the roadside house, and a loud shout interrupted Ning Lin's thoughts.

Ning Lin was stunned: "What's the situation?"

At this time, several figures flashed from behind Ning Lin. The steel knives in the hands of these strong men made Ning Lin immediately understand that he had encountered robbers! Perhaps it was his behavior of scattering wealth during the day that attracted the attention of these gangsters.

"Boy, I heard that you are inquiring about Ningjiazhuang, and there is a reward?"

"Yes! As long as you have clues, the reward is guaranteed to be yours!"

"Give the uncle fifty gold coins first, and I'll tell you!" a strong man behind him carried a knife and said with a sneer.

"Yes!" Ning Lin took out the money bag from his arms and threw it to the strong man with the knife.

The strong man with the knife grabbed the money bag, and saw the golden silk inside through the starlight in the sky, and his eyes were bigger than the porcupine!

"This, this ......" A relatively thin robber beside the strong man with a knife may have seen so many gold coins for the first time in his life, tremblingly stretched out his hand, took a gold curtain, put it in his mouth and bit it hard, saw the clear tooth marks on it, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Big, big brother, it's real, it's really gold! Now we're rich!"

"Smack!" The strong man with the knife slapped the thin man, snatched back the gold silk in his hand and put it in the bag, and scolded: "Stick, you want to die!

The stick had already been dazzled by Jin Shan, and he was not annoyed when he was beaten, and he rubbed the place where he was beaten, still with a smirk.

"Boy, this money is not enough! If you really want to know the clues, you must at least give you a hundred gold coins! No, it is a hundred for one person!"

The strong man with the knife is the eldest of the three, and he is secretly glad in his heart, but he didn't expect to meet a fat sheep today, and he casually gave himself fifty gold coins, if he can get three hundred gold coins, he will immediately fly away, and he can enjoy ten or eight years of fun in Kaizhou County! Even if this kid doesn't give it, it doesn't matter, looking at his thin and weak appearance, he has no iron in his body, how can he not be the opponent of his three brothers, catch this kid, the money on his body is not all his own?

"I can give you three hundred gold silks, but you have to tell me something useful to prove that you didn't lie to me!"

Ning Lin casually took out another money bag, and the gold coins in it jingled, and several robbers were frightened when they heard it, and their eyes were red!

"Big brother, you're drooling!" the stick reminded in a whisper.

The strong man with the knife stretched out his hand to wipe his saliva, kicked the stick aside, and smiled at Ning Linyin: "Okay! Brother will tell you something useful! Two years ago, a group of black-clothed people passed by nearly a hundred miles outside Shashui City, and the direction they went should be Ningjiazhuang......

"Do you know who those people are?" Ning Lin didn't expect these robbers to really know, and his heart was ecstatic.

"Money!" said the strong man with the knife stretched out his hand to Ning Lin.

Ning Lin didn't talk nonsense, and threw the money bag in his hand to the strong man with the knife. The strong man took the money bag and opened it to see that it was indeed a gold coin, at least a few hundred, and he didn't dare to count them at all, for fear of being seen by others, so he hurriedly put it in his arms.

The strong man with the knife didn't expect this money to come so easily, just now he thought about getting another three hundred gold coins and leaving, but now seeing that Ning Lin is so generous, if he doesn't grab more, he will be sorry for himself!

"Boy, there's a lot of money, give some more to grandpa, and a few more will help you spend flowers!" The strong man raised the long knife in his hand slightly, his face was hideous, and he walked towards Ning Lin step by step.
