Chapter 93 The Poisonous Scorpion Merchant
The cultivator who was still talking in disbelief just now yelled loudly the next moment.
For a moment, everyone turned their attention to the cultivator, and then everyone found that after he lifted the trouser legs, there were purple and black marks on his ankles, which looked like the marks of being bitten by a poisonous snake.
Everyone was amazed by this mark, and immediately afterward, many people went to check on themselves.
There are more or less marks of poison bites on their arms and shoulders.
"I always thought that there was a problem with my practice, so I couldn't make progress, but I never thought that I was attacked by poison."
"This poison is really terrible. Later, we were asked to eat poisonous scorpions and poisonous spiders to fight poison with poison. This must be someone deliberately plotting against us. It is simply the heart of a poisonous scorpion."
The people who had eaten rice balls all reacted now, and turned their attention to the person who was selling rice balls over there just now.
"What are you doing looking at me like this?! It was you who wanted to buy it back then. I didn't force you to buy it. If you make trouble here today, I will sue you to the government."
"You black-hearted merchant who sells this kind of thing even has the ideal to sue us to the government. Fortunately, I have left evidence and I will turn you to the government today to let you know what it means to be punished if you do something wrong." .”
In order to keep improving their practice, some practitioners bought a few more rice balls and did not eat them, but carried them with them for emergencies.
Now, after hearing that there was something in there, he directly took out his leftover rice balls, making the seller who was still shouting at the side turn pale instantly.
"You guys are messing around and spitting blood. Who knows if this thing is sold by us, you just take it out and clamor here. You just want to get free food! The government will not tolerate you people messing around here!"
The seller still held his head up and chest up, saying that he was not wrong. Seeing his fearless appearance, the old Taoist beside him laughed.
"People like you are interesting. I really like to play with you. You don't cry without seeing the coffin. If that's the case, then I'll send you to stay in the coffin for a while!"
The expression on the old Taoist's face looked very natural and calm when he said that, but the seller was a little scared.
He had just seen the ability of the old Taoist, and now the other party said something like this, which made him feel that he was likely to face a dangerous situation.
"You just think there is something wrong with the things we sell. If that's the case, wouldn't it be enough for us to return the goods to you? If you continue to make noise here, we won't be able to do business!"
"Just like you, no one is willing to come to your place to eat, unless they are desperate and dare to try to fight poison with poison. Anyway, I dare not eat here again!"
Everyone was chattering for a while, and finally everyone stood up to resist, some fished in troubled waters and some were really scared. Anyway, the situation was very lively, and it was impossible to control it at the end.
Seeing everyone booing here, the store manager went out directly from the back door, intending to report this matter to the head of the Wanli faction and ask him to make a decision.
It is hoped that someone will come to inspect at this time, go directly to the door of the restaurant, and gather all the troublemakers together.
"What's going on here? What are you people shouting here? Could it be that you want to cause turmoil, if you do this again, you will all be thrown into the cell of the city lord!"
The leader of the inspection team was a guy with a big belly. He blinked his small eyes, showing a vicious look, but he couldn't deter the practitioners like this at all.
"No one in this city knows who your fat city lord is. He and the old fat man from the Wanli faction have been working hand in hand for many years. Many shops in this city are controlled by him. Now you can go as soon as you say it, right? Aren't you going to do something for that old fat man?"
It was one of the practitioners who spoke. As soon as he stood up, the other practitioners stood with him and looked directly at the inspector leader in front of him.
Although this leader is favored by the city lord when he works under the lord, he is also a sneaky and slippery person on weekdays. He knows very well that these practitioners are people with their own ideas. If he offends one of them, he will cause trouble for himself upper body.
And because he doesn't have the spiritual root of practice, compared with these practitioners, he is just an ordinary person. No matter how good his kung fu is, he is not worth mentioning compared with others who know magic.
Although these people in front of them don't seem to have sects to rely on, but any one can be taken out casually can make the leader unable to eat.
The old fat man who is the head of the Wanli Sect only thinks about collecting oil and water on weekdays, and doesn't care about cultivation at all.
Not many of their sect's disciples have real talents and learning, all of them are piled up by high-grade pills, after all, they are rich and willful.
If there is a real fight, maybe any casual cultivator among these cultivators can fight against Sect Master Wan.
The leader felt that he should accept it as soon as it was good, and could not go through this muddy water.
"Since this is a matter between your sects of cultivating immortals, our city lord's mansion really can't judge for you, so you should solve it internally.
It's just that your restaurant can't be opened again today. If this continues, the city will be full of wind and rain and bring troubles to the people. Our City Lord's Mansion, as a guardian of the people, absolutely does not allow such things to happen.
You guys put a seal on this door, and you are not allowed to open a restaurant and continue to do business in the past few days! "
At that time, the leader chose a compromise method, and directly asked his own people to put a seal on the door, trapping these noisy people in the restaurant, and let them solve the problem by themselves.
But he chooses to be a hands-off shopkeeper. If he is outside and inside, even life or death has nothing to do with him.
At worst, if word spreads in the future, it will be said that these cultivators went mad and killed themselves.
Seeing that the leader of the City Lord's Mansion turned around and was about to leave, the person who just sold things was a little flustered. He went forward to hold the other party's hand and asked the other party to be his pillar by his side.
"My lord, we are honest businessmen who do small business. Those cultivators are not on the same level as us. They are obviously bullying poor people like us!"
"It's pitiful to be honest. Just now you know how to raise the price in front of me, an old man. You probably don't even know how to write the word "honesty!"
As the old Taoist said, he knocked the seller's hand with his chopsticks on the spot, preventing him from grabbing the leader's sleeve.
"My lord, you can see clearly. I am also quite old, and I am still an old beggar. I just want to beg for food. I thought the rice balls were very cheap, but I didn't expect him to charge me five taels." silver!"
The old Taoist stretched out his hand, indicating that he had just been tricked by these people.
Hearing that this seller actually cheated an old man, the people at the side rushed over to make decisions for the old man.
"Old man, how much silver did this unscrupulous person ask you just now, but it was five taels of silver? When I bought it before, he only charged me three hundred taels of silver, but he only charged me half a tael of silver when I bought too much!"
One of the practitioners was talking, and the other practitioner even took out his money bag to settle accounts for everyone.
The leader was going to leave, but when he heard that the seller had cheated the old man, he felt that his chance to make money had come again, so he turned back and looked at the seller.
Seeing this, the seller knew that things were going to go wrong, and had to recover the loss and face immediately.
"The old man made a request just now, saying that he has a lot of money and nothing else, and he wants us to provide him with luxurious vegetable dumplings, which require a lot of ingredients, so it is normal for us to charge more money! "
When the seller said this, he felt that he was already sweating profusely, and he was afraid that he would feel guilty if he continued, but he still refused to let go, but insisted that it was the request made by the old man himself.
"You child is not afraid of your own tongue when you lie, I just said that you want a lot of meat and vegetables, but what did you make?
You actually produced so many poisons, is it possible that you want to give me a luxurious poison feast? "
After the old Taoist finished speaking, he pulled the leader and asked him to stand in the middle to make decisions for himself.
"Young man, no matter what you say, it is to maintain the stability of one side. You see, they have entrapped us ordinary people so much. Why don't you do something to make them remember!"
The old Taoist encouraged him, and the leader gradually became interested.
Looking at the person in front of him, he suddenly felt that he should do something, maybe he could get some benefits from it.
The head of Wan must have made a lot of money selling this thing, and now he is being resisted by others, he can also take this opportunity to express that he wants to eliminate harm for everyone, and get some money out of it by the way.
"Old man, what you said is very reasonable. After all, we are also guarding the peace of one side. Now that this matter has been found on my head, I certainly cannot refuse.
You guys control the two of them to me, they dare to sell this kind of thing in the city, that is, they don't take our City Lord's Mansion seriously! "
The seller was a little rejoiced just now that he was finally going to send the person away, but he didn't expect that the person would make a comeback, which caught him off guard.
"My lord, this is a private matter between us. It has nothing to do with you. You should be busy with business, so you should go to your own affairs first. Let's deal with it privately here!"
The seller was very generous, he thought it was very concealed and stuffed a money bag into the leader's hand, but this small action was actually seen by the people around him.
The old Taoist coughed and showed a rather indifferent attitude.
"I thought you brat would be more generous after earning a lot of money, but I didn't expect you to be so stingy!"
The seller thought that he had done it very carefully, so that no one could see the slightest clue.
He was very good at doing this kind of thing before, and he had never been seen by others, but today he seems to have met his opponent.
Especially when the old Taoist finished speaking, the leader squeezed the money bag symbolically, as if he felt that the weight inside was not much, so he let go of his hand.
"What are you doing, brat? I am the one who guards the peace. How can I be easily bought by you? You just want to buy me with some stinky money. If you do something wrong, you should be punished. If you How can I gain a firm foothold in this place if I don't handle your affairs well!"
The leader said that he must make a clear calculation with these people today, so that he can be regarded as worthy of the people here.
Seeing his determined face, the old Taoist applauded happily.
"That's right. It's great for you two to do this. We ordinary people just want to watch you punish some black-hearted businessmen and let us ordinary people decide!"
"Old man, don't worry, we are most concerned about fairness and justice, how he deceived you, we will help you get it back, you just watch, what are you guys still doing in a daze, quickly close the door! "
Regarding what the leader did, Ji Lingyun remained indifferent, neither reacting nor making a move to pull the old Taoist back.
He sat there drinking tea, quietly observing everything in front of him, as if he was watching a wonderful farce.
"We are just ordinary businessmen. We didn't do anything. We just opened the door to do business. What are you going to do? Could it be that you want to do something to us unarmed poor people?"
The seller saw that he had no way to bribe the leader in front of him, so he put on a victim posture and stood there trying to get sympathy and response from the people around him.
"You guys are a little unkind. Look at the gold ring and big gold bracelet you are wearing. How could it belong to the poor man! The poor man should be covered in patches like me and want to eat rice balls. In the end, the coffin will be lost!"
The old Taoist didn't care whether he looked shabby or not, he took off his shoes and poured out some of the copper coins to show everyone, showing that he was a well-deserved poor man.
"This... this old man is already so pitiful, you have the audacity to sell him high-priced rice balls, and there are poisonous insects in them, you are the real poisonous scorpion merchants!"
The leader stated that he wanted to stand on the side of the old Taoist. As soon as he waved his hand, his subordinates escorted the seller to him.
"Are you going to tell the truth yourself, or let me search for something to convict you? I don't think you want to suffer more!"
The leader said as he waved the whip in his hand, as if it would fall on the seller in the next moment.
For a moment, everyone turned their attention to the cultivator, and then everyone found that after he lifted the trouser legs, there were purple and black marks on his ankles, which looked like the marks of being bitten by a poisonous snake.
Everyone was amazed by this mark, and immediately afterward, many people went to check on themselves.
