Lanke Chess Edge

As a fox demon with shallow morals, Hu Li doesn't have such a deep grasp of people's hearts. Although the current situation makes him angry, it is more because his theft has been made public and he is not suitable for being pointed out by the people around him.

Huli's sense of shame is not deep yet. With his morality and experience, even if he has already understood that stealing is not good in people's concept, it is not enough to strongly agree with the human race's concept of stealing honor and disgrace, but the shopkeeper and the people around The glances and pointing were enough to make him nervous.

So when Ji Yuan said to put away the medicine and leave, Hu Li was amnesty.

Yes, I'll put it away!

Hu Li quickly shook off the sack, and kept sweeping the herbs on the counter into the sack.

The pharmacy shopkeeper next to him heard Ji Yuan's words and saw Hu Li arranging the medicinal materials, so he immediately reached out and grabbed Hu Li's arm.

What? You want to leave after being arrested? Tell me, where did you get the medicinal materials?

Let go! Let go!

Hu Li struggled for his hand, but the shopkeeper of the pharmacy held him tightly, and immediately bared his teeth at him with a fierce look on his face.

Bah...

The fierce look at this moment startled the pharmacy shopkeeper. He had never seen such an expression on a person's face before, so he subconsciously let go of his hand.

Why, you are a thief, do you still want to do it?

Yeah, do you still want to do it? That's right, you're just a thieves!

The clerks in the shop also came to the shopkeeper, and there were many people outside, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a lot more courageous, and even winked at others, immediately two clerks stood in front of the door, There were even some familiar men outside helping to watch the door.

Hu Li had already packed the medicinal materials and took the sack in his hands, but when he turned his head and saw that he seemed to be surrounded, he subconsciously looked at Ji Yuan, but before Ji Yuan could speak, the shopkeeper had already come to the door , stopped there.

Don't leave, if you don't explain the origin of this herbal medicine, come with me to see the official!

I've already said, I went to the mountains to pick it up, and it hasn't been exposed in the sun yet. It's not stolen!

Ji Yuan looked at the shopkeeper from one side, knowing that the other party must have other excuses, but he turned his face for profit, and this kind of person is unlikely to act bravely in order to uphold justice.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper said right away.

Long-term supply, the master herbalist of my Qicaotang has already said that recently, people often steal medicinal materials in their courtyard that will not be dried in the future. It's just that the thieves are cunning and have never caught them. I see that the medicinal materials you brought today are It belongs to the herb-gathering masters in my Strange Herb Hall!

And you, sir, judging by your polite appearance, it's fine if you're just bewitched by this thief. If you're still an accomplice, then seeing an official, I'm afraid it will be hard for the scholar and bachelor, right?

Ji Yuan thought it was a little funny, glanced at Hu Li who was a little nervous, then looked around at the people around him, and finally smiled at the shopkeeper.

If it is a normal transaction, how much are these medicinal materials worth?

You, why are you asking this?

Five old ginseng plants that are not young, and there are Lingzhi, Shouwu, Huangjing, etc., are they three hanging coins?

With so many people present, it is impossible for the shopkeeper to talk nonsense, and can only say a relatively normal number.

The old ginseng in this bag of medicinal materials is very old. If it is a normal transaction, it is not too much to count ten taels of silver, but the stolen goods stolen by the thieves are another matter.

Ji Yuan smiled, and nodded towards the crowd outside the door, a red-faced and unusually burly man squeezed in from outside, and he separated the people who were watching the excitement.

Who is it? You...

I don't have long eyes...

Some wanted to scold, but they dared not speak up when they saw the other party like this, and Jin Jia didn't care about others' words, and brushed aside a few pharmacy assistants like pushing away children, and entered the pharmacy Internally bowed to Ji Yuan to salute, but did not call out the honorific title.

Jin Jia's entry also seemed to extinguish the arrogance of the people in the pharmacy all at once, and they became nervous. It was Jin Jia's physique and demeanor that he knew it was not easy to mess with.

You, what do you want to do? Be careful, I will report to the police! Hey, hey, hey...

The shopkeeper was directly lifted by Jin Jia's clothes, kicked his feet off the ground, and kept screaming, but the people around him just retreated to keep a safe distance, and even the shop assistants did not dare to approach.

Of course I'm going to see the official. You can also ask the official to summon the old master of your pharmacy to confront me. My red-faced follower has a quick temper and a bad temper. I don't like to be wronged, but it's true. Naturally, I won’t do anything to you here, and I’ll talk about it after I see the official judgment!”

You can also go together.

Ji Yuan said this to the people around him, and walked directly to the outside of the hall, followed by Hu Li, who was carrying a sack, and Jin Jia, who was carrying the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, and no one dared to stand in the way.

Don't stop, good man, spare your life, good man, spare your life, good man...I'll give money, I'll give money, I'll give you whatever amount! You guys, stop them, stop them!

stop them? Of course, the spectators would not just look for trouble, and the shop assistants did not dare to look directly at Jin Jia, only thinking that if the big clapper came down with a fist, they might be able to kill people directly.

A good man, a good man, I shouldn't be obsessed with ghosts, I shouldn't wrong people, it's all a villain's greed for a while, it's not good to be a villain, a good man, a villain gives me twenty taels, twenty taels...

As soon as he arrived on the street, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy repeatedly confessed his mistake because of strong fear. As a result, the street became more lively now, and everyone followed him to the yamen.

Hu Li laughed loudly along the way, constantly mocking the panic-stricken shopkeeper in Jin Jia's hands.

Boom boom boom boom boom...

The sound of drumming rang outside the Yamen...

Ascension~~~~~

The official sits tall, and the yamen servants stand on both sides. The interrogation process is fast but cruel. The magistrate, who is observing the situation, sees that Ji Yuan and Jin Jia have extraordinary demeanor. Get to the bottom of it.

The sentence Severely beat 50 boards was uttered from the mouth of the official, and immediately an officer gave a severe sentence to the shopkeeper of the pharmacy.

Boom... Boom... Boom... Boom...

Ah...uh...ah...forgive me...ah...uh...ho...ah...

When the board was hit, Hu Li felt panicked after hearing the screams, the pharmacy owner shouted until his throat became hoarse, the pain was so painful that he almost fainted, and the people watching the excitement outside the hall were also completely silent.

How do you feel, Holly?

Hu Li swallowed, and whispered.

Sir, is this too much? It's only 20 boards, and he can't hold it anymore. If it goes down to 50 boards, will he die?

This official lord does not know the severity of the punishment. If you go down fifty boards, you will probably die.

Ah? Here, sir, what can we do?

Seeing that Hu Li was in a hurry, Ji Yuan turned to look at him and asked with a smile.

He cheated on your medicinal materials before, are you worried about him?

This, this is different! It's different! Of course I'm angry at him for wronging me and trying to lie to me about medicinal materials, but it's too much to kill him directly, and he's still a doctor! Sir, tell them to stop, twenty The multi-board half-life is gone, enough is enough, enough strength...

Ha ha ha ha……

Ji Yuan chuckled a few times, and Hu Li felt that the surroundings suddenly became blurred, vague like clouds and fog, and felt a little dizzy.

But at the next moment, as if the snot bubble had been punctured by dozing off, Hu Li suddenly woke up again. There were no courts or officials around him, and he was obviously still in the pharmacy, and he was concentrating the medicinal materials on the counter.

It was also at this moment that the pharmacy owner's hand just grabbed Hu Li's arm. Hu Li looked at the pharmacy owner, but found that the other's eyes were dazed for a moment before returning to his senses, and then his face was filled with a faint sense of panic and fear.

Why, shopkeeper, are you not allowed to leave?

Ji Yuan's voice came from one side, shocking Hu Li and the shopkeeper back to their senses.

The pharmacy owner withdrew his hand all at once, looked around nervously, touched his face, then his buttocks and back, panting slightly, with a thankful look on his face.

No, it's nothing, just now, just now, I was rude, the two of you are still selling this medicinal material, I will give you ten taels, no, I will give you twenty taels!

Hu Li's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Ji Yuan, who smiled.

The medicine is yours. Of course it's up to you to decide whether to sell it or not. What do you want me to do?

Sell! Then don't go back on your word, just say twenty taels!

Yes, yes, no regrets, no regrets!

The shopkeeper hurried back to the counter to get the money, and when he saw the dumbfounded shop assistants in his shop and the onlookers outside, he immediately shouted at them.

Go, go, go to work!

And everyone, it was just a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, I admitted the wrong person, wronged a good person, it's all a misunderstanding, it's all gone!

After chasing people away repeatedly, the shopkeeper took the silver and weighed it casually, then walked out of the counter and handed it to Hu Li.

Twenty taels of silver, please accept it with a smile. Just now, the villain offended and was rude. I still look at Haihan, I still look at Haihan!

Hu Li took the silver in a daze, and when he saw the shopkeeper saluting again and again, he apologized sincerely, the anger in his heart disappeared, and after returning the gift with the silver, he left the pharmacy with Ji Yuan.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy stood at the door and still kept saluting to the two of them. Then, in palpitations, he saw a tall and burly red-skinned giant man walking away with the two of them...

After the three of Ji Yuan walked for a while, the sight of the surroundings faded away, and Hu Li who got the silver was very happy, stuffing part of the money into the prepared purse, playing with a silver ingot all the time, as happy as a child.

Sir, I'm rich now. Twenty taels, isn't it a lot? By the way, sir, did the shopkeeper just see the matter of the Yamen and the ban?

Ji Yuan didn't answer directly, but looked at Hu Li and then at Jin Jia and the little paper crane standing on his head.

Naturally, I got a lot of money, but judging right and wrong is more important than money. What the shopkeeper shows is human nature, and what you show is also human nature. Which is good and which is evil, which is right and which is wrong?

But I'm a demon?

Hahahahaha...

Ji Yuan laughed, didn't speak any more, and walked forward quickly, and Hu Li quickly chased after him.

Hey, sir, I'm right, right? It can't be him, right?
