Chapter 197 Although I am usually very arrogant, I am not stupid (two chapters in one)
Zhou Qiqiang stood aside and looked at his newly awakened son expressionlessly.
"Dad, mother..." Zhou Tianci, who had just recovered from his serious injury, looked at his parents and shouted weakly.
"Son! Stop talking and rest peacefully! The doctor just said that although your injuries were cured by using supernatural powers, your body is still very weak and you need to rest for a while... ..." Zhou Tianci's mother said.
"Tianci, do you know who attacked you?" Zhou Qiqiang asked his son.
When asked by his father, a figure suddenly appeared in Zhou Tianci's mind, and at the same time, the last harsh words the other party said to him also rang in his ears.
“I’ll beat you up this time, and you’ll be cleared. If you dare to mess with me again in the future, it won’t be like this time, and it will be settled by simply beating you up. ..."
Zhou Tianci trembled physically and shook his head at his father. He shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"Son! Think about it carefully. This time the person who attacked you dealt such a heavy blow to you. Even if he hides in the ends of the earth, we will not We must find a way to find him," Zhou Tianci's mother said with an angry look.
Zhou Tianci is her precious son. She has never been willing to beat her son once. However, this time, her son was seriously injured and almost lost his life. This made her very sad. of anger.
"In the city, I dare to attack you in broad daylight. If I didn't have a deep grudge with you, most people would not do such a thing...
Tell me honestly, have you broken into another country recently? What's wrong? Did you offend someone who shouldn't be offended?" Zhou Qiqiang frowned and analyzed.
"Dad, I haven't caused any trouble recently. I really don't know who the person who attacked me is. Let's just forget about it!" Zhou Tianci said.
"Son! The person who attacked you injured you like this, how can you just let it go?" Zhou Tianci's mother said angrily.
When Zhou Qiqiang heard that Zhou Tianci said that he could just forget about it, he had a surprised look on his face.
When something like this happens, according to his son's temper, he should be the kind of person who would never be a good person unless he takes revenge!
Now he is uncharacteristically showing such a reaction that is very different from before. This is too strange.
"Dad, Mom, I just want to have a good rest now. Can you please let me be quiet?" Zhou Tianci said.
"Okay, okay, Mom, please go out with your father right now, and you can have a good rest."
Zhou Tianci's mother heard that her son, who had just recovered from a serious injury, said that he wanted to take a rest. , nodded quickly, then got up and took her husband with her, leaving her son's bedroom.
Zhou Tianci was lying on the bed. After his father and mother left, he shouted outside the room, "Xiao Liu."
"Master, I am here! What are your orders?" Listen. Zhou Tianci called him when he arrived in the room. Wang Xiaoliu, who was waiting at the door, immediately ran into the bedroom and came to Zhou Tianci.
"Help me untie the gauze on my body." Zhou Tianci ordered.
"Yes, Master." Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoliu immediately stretched out his hand to help Zhou Tianci untie the white gauze wrapped around his body.
"Master, woo woo woo..."
Zhou Tianci cooperated with Wang Xiaoliu to untie the blood-stained white gauze on his body.
At this time, he saw Wang Xiaoliu suddenly burst into tears, and asked doubtfully, "Why are you crying?"
"Young Master, it's all my fault for being useless when I meet you. Such an enemy can only watch helplessly, young master, you being beaten by him... wu wu wu..."
"Okay, Don't cry. That man has a mid-level cultivation level. No matter how useful you are, you can still be stronger than me. In the end, you will still be beaten by him."
"Master, we have never been able to do it. Why did that person attack us if he had never offended a second-level practitioner?”
"That's right! We have never offended the practitioners in the middle stage of the second level..." Zhou Tianci pondered for a moment and then warned.
"Don't mention this matter again in the future, and... you will find some people later to tear up all the missing persons notices I asked you to paste everywhere. Dropped."
"Ah? Master, what do you mean?" Wang Xiaoliu asked in confusion. He didn't understand why he was suddenly asked to take people to deal with those missing persons notices.
"Don't ask why, just do as I say...Okay, I'm going to rest, you go out!"
Zhou Tianci did not explain anything to Wang Xiaoliu. After helping himself to remove all the blood-stained white gauze, he lay down and closed his eyes to rest.
Wang Xiaoliu scratched his head, and then left the bedroom honestly.
After Wang Xiaoliu left, the bedroom returned to silence. At this time, Zhou Tianci slowly opened his eyes and murmured to himself.
“That guy surnamed Lin actually awakened two powers, and in such a short period of time, he broke through from the initial stage of the second stage to the middle stage of the second stage. I can’t go back to such a terrifying cultivation qualification. Offended him.”
Although Zhou Tian gave others the senses of an arrogant playboy, he was not a brainless fool.
This time he was beaten violently by the opponent, but he clearly knew that the opponent would be merciful this time. Otherwise, the strength gap between the two sides was there, and if the opponent made a fatal move, he would definitely die.
Moreover, after knowing that the person he offended was a genius who had awakened two powers and became a mid-level second-level practitioner at such a young age.
Zhou Tianci's arrogance disappeared instantly, and he knew very clearly what he should do next, which was to try his best not to have anything to do with the guy named Lin.
After all, with the other party's current excellent cultivation qualifications, it is very likely that he will succeed in cultivation in the future and become a third-level or even fourth-level practitioner.
If you don't listen to the other party's last warning, then you will provoke the other party without knowing what is good.
If he succeeds in his cultivation in the future, he will most likely come to seek revenge on him. By then, the Zhou family will be doomed.
Zhou Tianci reviewed his experience this time in his mind.
My janitor's servant got the news that the other party would meet at the pastry shop on Guangqi Road this morning.
It was basically the guy named Lin who deliberately put out the bait just to lure himself into the bait.
Such a character who must avenge even more makes him think that he can no longer provoke the other party.
Although he asked his servants to post missing persons notices everywhere, the fundamental purpose was not to take revenge on the other party, but to reconcile with the other party.
Such an action was misunderstood by the other party as seeking revenge on him. I really wanted to explain it to him. Unfortunately, in this situation, it is no longer possible to explain to him face to face.
"What the hell...what is this? I asked people to post missing persons notices everywhere and spent a lot of money to find you. I wanted to find you and then give you a generous gift for reconciliation. As a result, But I ended up like this.
Others say I have a short temper, but I should be careful with you. You are no worse than me. If you had been willing to say a few words to me at that time, I might not have had to endure this beating."
Zhou Tianci thought about the guy named Lin, who was beaten violently without saying a word. His situation made him extremely depressed. After cursing in his heart, he slowly closed his eyes. …………
"Tap tap tap..."
First there was a rush of footsteps, and then a handsome waitress walked quickly into the courtyard behind the restaurant.
"Boss, Mr. Lin is here." The handsome waitress said to Wang Gui, who was standing in the courtyard looking at baskets of pearls.
While Wang Gui was looking at the big bamboo basket filled with pearls, the handsome waitress nodded and immediately took him to greet his big customer.
After a while.
Lin Li, who was wearing a bamboo hat to hide his face, followed Wang Gui into the courtyard behind the restaurant.
"Mr. Lin, there are a total of fifty baskets here, each basket contains two thousand pearls, a total of one hundred thousand pearls." Wang Gui pointed to the dozens of large bamboo baskets filling the courtyard and looked around him The big customer laughed.
These pearls are all money... Lin Li looked at these flawless white pearls in big bamboo baskets in front of him. He felt very happy and praised Wang Gui with a smile.
"Boss Wang is extraordinary in his actions. In just one morning, you have prepared the 100,000 pearls I need."
Hearing the compliment from this big customer, Wang Gui was also very happy in his heart, but he said it very modestly.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. I have spent a lot of effort preparing the 100,000 pearls you need."
The two chatted politely with each other, and then Lin Li walked towards those A large bamboo basket filled with pearls was collected into the mysterious island one by one.
Although Wang Gui had known for a long time that the big customer in front of him had awakened the storage space power.
But when he saw the other party using this power again and putting away the dozens of baskets of pearls he had prepared, he could not avoid showing a shocked expression again.
"It would be great if I could awaken the power of storage space like this Mr. Lin." Wang Gui thought with envy, and at the same time he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
"It is said that the storage space obtained by practitioners who awaken this kind of storage space power is not particularly large, usually only about ten cubic meters.
The fifty large bamboo baskets in my courtyard , if you add them all up, it easily exceeds ten cubic meters
How come Mr. Lin’s storage space can store all these large bamboo baskets so easily?”
It took a few minutes to collect all the large bamboo baskets filled with pearls in the courtyard. Lin Li from the mysterious island turned around with a smile on his face and said to Wang Gui who was lost in thought.
"Boss Wang, I have put away all the pearls. It is a pleasure to cooperate with you. I will come back to you when I need you next time."
Wang Gui was wondering why Lin Li's storage space was so large. Suddenly he heard Lin Li talking to him. He immediately came to his senses, put aside the doubts in his heart, and said with a smile.
"It's almost noon, Mr. Lin, you haven't had lunch yet, right? I asked the kitchen to prepare a table of lunch for us. You can have lunch before leaving!"
"How embarrassing!" Lin Li said politely when he saw that Wang Gui wanted to treat him to lunch.
Wang Gui joked to his big client with a smile, "Mr. Lin, please don't be a stranger to me. We will have to cooperate more often in the future!
And it's just for one day. It’s just lunch. What you said really slapped me in the face, making me seem reluctant to even treat you to lunch.”
"Uh... that's okay! Then I'll shamelessly have lunch at Boss Wang's place." It was hard to refuse the hospitality, so Lin Li agreed with a smile.
Later, Wang Gui led Lin Li to the VIP private room on the second floor of the restaurant.
…………
At noon, the scorching sun in the sky spreads its enthusiasm to Dongwucheng.
The willow trees on both sides of the street were sickened by the scorching sun in the sky, looking listless.
A lunch was enjoyed by both the guests and the host. Lin Li, who was full and drunk, came out of the restaurant slowly after Wang Gui personally saw him off with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Lin, walk slowly and come often when you have time." Wang Gui said to Lin Li who was about to leave. The latter nodded with a smile and walked towards the street.
The weather in the afternoon is extremely hot. At this time, walking on the streets of Dongwucheng under the bright sun is simply asking for trouble.
Lin Li was going to stop a carriage on the roadside and let the driver take him around Dongwu City.
The bright sunshine shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves, shining on the faces of Lin Li who are hiding in the shade of the trees.
He had taken off his bamboo hat while eating just now, and now that he was being shone by the sun like this, Lin Li couldn't bear it.
With a thought in his mind, he took out the folded bamboo hat from the mysterious island again and put it on his head.
"The weather in Dongwucheng today is too hot! It feels like the temperature is several degrees higher than that in Rongcheng." Lin Li was standing under the willow tree waiting for the bus, feeling the heat waves blowing from time to time on the road. , muttered.
Suddenly, a motorcade appeared on the far corner of the street, which immediately attracted the attention of Lin Li, who was waiting for the bus.
“Prison car?!!!”
Lin Li was surprised when he looked at the convoy coming slowly in his direction in the distance.
"Holy crap, it's really a prison car! This scene should be the long-gone public parade!"
The convoy of prison cars that Lin Li saw, Coming out of the corner and entering this street, shopkeepers and customers from the shops on both sides of the street came out one after another and pointed at the convoy of prison cars.
There are a total of fifteen prison cars in this convoy, and each prison car holds a ferocious-looking man wearing a linen prison uniform with more or less injuries on his body.
At the front of the motorcade was an official wearing purple clothes and riding a tall horse.
On both sides of the motorcade were some officers in gray clothes. Although these officers in gray clothes also rode horses, the quality of the horses they sat on was far inferior to that of the horse in purple clothes.
These people should be the policemen of Dongwu City Yamen, right? Well, that should be it, otherwise, their clothes wouldn’t have the word “catcher” embroidered on them...
On Blue Star, Lin Li had only seen this kind of “catcher” in costume dramas. The scene of escorting prisoners through the streets after they were housed there seemed very novel when I first saw them.
