Chapter 1151 The Price of Choosing the Wrong Target (Two Chapters in One)
"I see." Lin Li nodded, and then asked what the new drug developed did.
"This new drug I developed can gradually return people with declining Qi and blood to normal, and speed up the recovery of seriously injured people." Bai Jingting explained with a smile.
Lin Li's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.
Although with his current strength, the probability of being seriously injured is very small, but out of caution, he is not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
If you accidentally get seriously injured one day, this kind of healing medicine can play a big role in your body's recovery.
Bai Jingting saw Lin Li's expression change, and he immediately knew what the other person was thinking, so he said with a smile.
"Young man, when the medicine is ready, I can leave a copy for you..."
Lin Li thanked, "Thank you, shopkeeper."
Bai Jingting placed Waving his hand, "You don't have to be so polite. If you hadn't brought back the Blood Grass, I would have had very little hope of making this new medicine."
Afterwards, the two chatted happily, and the store employee came to the room carrying a small bag of spiritual stones.
"These spirit stones are your reward. Brother Lin, please check them out!" Bai Jingting said.
"I believe in Shopkeeper Bai's character." Lin Li took a small bag of spiritual stones without checking them, and with a thought in his mind, he took them into the mysterious island.
Bai Jingting saw a small bag of spirit stones disappearing instantly. He was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Lin Li in surprise.
"I have other things to do, so I'll leave first." Lin Li stood up and left.
Bai Jingting was about to send each other off when he saw Lin Li smiling and saying, "Shopkeeper Bai, when I was getting this blood-growing grass, I met people from the Qinghe Gang and the Dadao Gang."
After saying that, Lin Li left. Room.
Bai Jingting thought about Lin Li's last words, and some of the doubts in his heart were answered.
…………
The street is very lively.
There were many small vendors hawking in the distance, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Lin Li walked out of the medicine shop. He was in a very good mood at this time.
Although I did not check the reward I just received, I can tell from the weight that there are a lot of spiritual stones, at least a hundred.
"It's almost time to have lunch. Let's find a restaurant to have lunch, and then continue walking around the city."
Lin Li glanced at the sun in the sky and muttered in his heart.
He walked along the street and saw a busy restaurant on the corner.
After thinking for a while, I decided to have lunch at the restaurant in front of me.
Cross the road and come to the opposite side of the street.
Lin Li walked into the restaurant. The waiter in the lobby on the first floor saw him and immediately greeted him.
“Welcome.”
"I'm alone, please arrange a table for me."
"Okay, sir, please come with me." The waiter responded with a smile on his face, and then led Lin Li to the second floor of the restaurant. Go.
The dining tables on the first floor are relatively large and can accommodate more than four people.
Lin Li followed the waiter to the stairs, arrived on the second floor, and sat down at a small table near the window.
"Sir, this is our menu. What would you like to eat?" The waiter handed over the menu in his hand.
Lin Li looked through the menu and found that the main dish of this store uses exotic animal meat as the main ingredient.
"It's my first time to dine in your restaurant. Just watch and serve me the food. Give me five dishes and one soup..."
I don't want to waste my brain cells on choosing. What to eat, so Lin Li asked the waiter to help him order.
"Okay." The waiter nodded and then asked.
“The signature dishes in our store are made from exotic animal meat and are a bit expensive. Are you sure you want to order these dishes?”
Lin Li responded with a smile, "It doesn't matter, as long as the food is delicious, money is not an issue."
After hearing what Lin Li said, the waiter knew that this was a big customer, his eyes lit up, and then he raised his hand He patted his chest and said confidently.
"The dishes produced by the chefs in our store are famous far and wide, and we will never disappoint you, guest."
After saying that, the waiter left quickly to serve Lin Li.
Lin Li picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea into the cup.
The free tea provided by the restaurant tastes good, very light, and suits Lin Li's taste.
"Where did that man go?" On the roadside outside the restaurant, a strong man walked over from a distance and asked the younger brother.
"Brother Dao, that person entered the restaurant and must have gone to have lunch." The sly-eyed boy pointed to the restaurant in the distance and answered.
"The food in this restaurant is not cheap, he is really rich." Brother Dao said with squinted eyes.
"Yes! The money for one meal at this restaurant is enough for me to live for a month." The sly-eyed younger brother agreed.
The two people stood on the roadside, patiently waiting for the target to come out of the restaurant.
…………
Time passed, and the sun in the sky seemed to have not moved. Some white clouds floated in the distance, as soft as cotton candy.
The sun was covered by white clouds, and a large shadow appeared on the ground.
The vendors setting up stalls on the street looked up at the sky and said happily to themselves.
"The weather is really hot today. I hope these clouds can block the sun for a while."
In the restaurant, Lin Li finished all the five dishes and one soup and burped with satisfaction.
The dishes in this restaurant are very delicious. As the waiter said, it did not disappoint.
Of course, the price is indeed expensive, but it is worth it for Lin Li.
Exotic animal meat contains spiritual energy, and it is helpful for practitioners to improve their own strength after eating it.
If consumed for a long time, it will play a greater role in increasing strength.
Lin Li ate and drank enough and came out of the restaurant after paying the bill.
"The sun is gone?"
Not feeling the sunlight, Lin Li raised his head and looked at the sky.
He saw patches of cloud covering the sun and wondered if it would rain soon.
There is no weather forecast in this world. To judge whether it will rain or not, you can only rely on luck.
Lin Li withdrew his gaze and walked away. Next, he wandered aimlessly on the street, occasionally entering some shops to take a look at the things sold in the shops.
As time passed by, Lin Li walked out of a store and walked to the alley in front under the guidance of the clerk.
According to the clerk, you can see a bookstore through the alley in front.
Lin Li previously visited a bookstore in Dongwucheng and obtained an illustrated book of plants and exotic animals.
This time he was looking for a bookstore in Shuanghe City. He wanted to see if there were any differences in the plant illustrations and exotic beast illustrations in the bookstore here.
Stepping forward, after a while, we came to the entrance of the alley.
At this moment, Lin Li's steps suddenly paused and his brows furrowed.
Then, he continued to walk forward, and after entering the alley, two figures in the distance quickly crossed the road and chased into the alley.
"Tap, step, step..."
Rapid footsteps sounded in the quiet alley, and two figures quickly approached the target.
Lin Li suddenly stopped, then turned around and looked at the two people following him expressionlessly. One was tall and the other was short. The tall man was 1.9 meters tall and had scars on his arms. The short man was only 1.5 meters tall and looked wretched.
"Brother Dao, he seems to know that we are following him..." The man with sinister eyebrows saw Lin Li's expression and said.
"So what if you know?" Brother Dao said nonchalantly.
Lin Li looked at the two people in front of him, and he probably knew why they were following him, but he still asked.
“Why are you following me?”
The sinister-looking man rubbed his hands and said with a smile, “We are short of money now and would like to borrow some money from you.”
Lin Li had no expression on his face when he heard that the other party wanted to borrow money. Change, "I don't have any money, you ask other people to borrow it."
After hearing this, the man with a sly eyebrow showed a proud smile on his face, "We know whether you have money, you hand over the money now Come out and suffer less.”
"Haha." Lin Li sneered.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense to him?" Brother Dao is an impatient man. When he saw his younger brother chatting with him, he immediately scolded him.
"Boy, if you are wise, please hand over the money you earned in the drugstore, otherwise don't blame me for attacking you..."
A clicking sound sounded, and Brother Dao threatened him at the same time. He clenched his fists.
The sound of the sandbag-sized fist sounded very clearly in this quiet alley.
If an ordinary person is threatened by the other party in this way, for the sake of their own safety, they will definitely hand over their money honestly.
However, the two people borrowing money in front of him obviously chose the wrong target, and their threats seemed ridiculous to Lin Li.
"Why are you laughing?" After Brother Dao finished his threatening words, he saw a smile on the target's face, which made him confused.
“He is laughing at us.” said the man with a sinister eyebrow.
“You’re looking for death.” Brother Dao was furious. He had borrowed money from many people, but this was the first time he was ridiculed like this by the person he borrowed money from.
"You two usually do this kind of thing, right?" Lin Li ignored the other party's anger and asked.
Brother Dao didn't answer Lin Li's question. He strode forward and reached out to grab Lin Li's collar.
However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Lin Li grabbed his wrist.
Brother Dao was very strong. He wanted to shake off Lin Li's hand, but he did not shake it off.
Lin Li's hand was like a vise. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
"Let me go." Brother Dao's face turned red due to the exertion of force. He raised his other hand and punched Lin Li in the face. As a result, Lin Li grabbed his wrist with his other hand.
Both hands were caught, Brother Dao, who encountered such a thing for the first time, felt a little panicked.
Lin Li exerted a little strength, and Brother Dao felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"Ah..."
Screams rang out in the quiet alley.
The little brother with the sinister eyebrows was startled, his eyes widened, and he looked at the scene happening in front of him in disbelief.
Brother Dao knelt on his knees, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, dripping down his cheeks and falling to the ground.
Screams came from his mouth one after another, and his face was terrifyingly pale.
Lin Li looked at the robber who was kneeling and screaming and said calmly.
“It’s not good to grab anyone. If you grab my head, you are really lighting a lantern in the toilet.”
"Let go, let me go quickly." Brother Dao's face was hideous in pain.
Lin Li would not let go because of the other party's words, and the strength in his hand increased again.
With the current strength, the other party looks like he is being tortured.
"Ah..." Brother Dao's screams intensified, making people's scalp numb.
“Come here and help me.”
Unable to escape Lin Li's torture, he could only seek help from his companions.
The man with sinister eyebrows and stern eyes was so frightened by the scene happening in front of him that his legs trembled and he stood there blankly.
He was originally timid. He usually relied on Brother Dao to act like a fox or a tiger, but now that he saw his backer being subdued, he didn't dare to step forward to help.
"What are you doing? Come and get him quickly!"
Brother Dao yelled angrily when he saw that the younger brother didn't make any movement.
"I, I..." The man with sinister eyebrows hesitated, not daring to take a step forward.
"Crack."
The sound of something breaking sounded.
Brother Dao looked up at Lin Li and saw him saying apologetically, "Sorry, I broke your hand."
"Ah..." Brother Dao looked at His hands were crushed, and he let out a heart-rending scream.
"It's so noisy." Lin Li raised his right foot and kicked the opponent in the stomach.
“Bang.”
Brother Dao flew out after being kicked and hit the wall, causing the wall to crack.
Lin Li dismissed one person and turned to look at the man with sinister eyebrows and stern eyes.
“I was wrong, spare my life!”
He kowtowed and begged for mercy, making endless banging sounds, which was a very sincere attitude.
"It's too late now to know the mistake, and you are habitual offenders. How can this matter be settled without paying a price?"
As Lin Li said this, he walked towards the man who kept kowtowing. Robbers.
“No!”
A different scream sounded.
A few minutes later, Lin Li walked slowly out of the alley. At this time, many passers-by stopped to watch.
Obviously, the action of Lin Li punishing the two robbers just now attracted the attention of passers-by.
The screams in the alley gradually became fainter. Although passers-by were curious, they did not have the courage to go in and check.
After Lin Li came out, many people's eyes fell on him.
Everyone looked at this young man and did not expect that he was the cause of this incident.
One of the white-haired old men stepped forward to inquire. Lin Li shook his head, indicating that he was not sure, and then turned and left.
After Lin Li left, passers-by went to report it to the police. About six or seven minutes passed, and several police officers came to the scene.
After the police arrived, they did not enter the alley rashly.
I asked people around me but didn't get any useful information.
At this time, time dragged on for a long time, and the leading detective led his companions into the alley.
"There are two people there." A young policeman with good eyesight saw two figures in the garbage pile.
Several police officers came to the garbage pile and saw two limp and unconscious men lying in the garbage pile.
"These two people seem to be members of the Qinghe Gang..." Someone recognized their identities and their expressions became serious.
The Qinghe Gang is not easy to mess with. Now that their members are injured and unconscious, and are thrown into the garbage, they will definitely be looking for the murderer everywhere.
"Get them out first." The leading detective ordered.
Later, people from the Qinghe Gang were notified and sent people to check.
