Chapter 208 So Scared That They Knelt Down
Not long after.
A middle-aged man also surrounded Xiao Jian. Although he did not say much, he still looked at Xiao Jian with concern.
This middle-aged couple also saw Li Xuan. After Xiao Jian introduced them, they also knew Li Xuan’s identity and treated him very well.
After Xiao Jian returned to the room at the back to sleep, Xiao Jian’s mother hurriedly tidied up a room for Li Xuan to live in.
As for Xiao Jian’s father, he took care of Li Xuan and even went out to buy new bedding and clothes for Li Xuan to use.
It could be seen that this couple were quite kind people.
Li Xuan was originally very dissatisfied with Xiao Jian, but after the warm hospitality of this middle-aged couple, he calmed down a little.
After Li Xuan returned to the room, he leaned on the bed and fell into deep thought because he suddenly realized a problem, and that was the Lan Quan’s Spiritual Power was blue.
On the street outside, not far from the medicine shop…
A few hooligans went from house to house collecting protection fees. They wantonly insulted the people in the shop, clamoring for protection fees.
Although the owners of these shops were very angry, they dared not speak out. They could only helplessly pay the protection fees.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, it’s still better to collect protection fees in the commoner district. We don’t have to worry about encountering strong people anymore.”
The scarred youth took a pile of money and nodded in satisfaction.
“That’s right. We’ve collected protection fees for several years in this area. No one dares to resist us. They’re all ordinary people without any backing. We can bully them however we want,” the fatty said with a chuckle.
“From now on, we’ll collect protection fees here. We won’t run around randomly anymore. If we provoke strong people like Master Black Wolf, we’ll be in big trouble.”
“Yeah, let’s go to the next shop to collect protection fees. It’s the Xiao family’s medicine shop ahead.”
A few hooligans swaggered into the Xiao family’s medicine shop and began to clamor for protection fees.
The hooligans’ actions frightened Xiao Jian’s parents, making them very fearful and worried.
Previously, Xiao Jian had wanted to make a Sacrificial Summoning. He had taken all of the family’s savings and bought an ancient jade. Later, the ancient jade shattered, revealing the Ancient Blood inside.
Xiao Jian used too much money, so there was no liquid capital in the medicine shop.
When the few hooligans were clamoring for money, Xiao Jian’s parents could not afford it at all. They could only beg bitterly.
“Don’t be so shameless. The last time we received money, your son was clamoring. This time, you guys just won’t give it, right?” The scarred youth questioned coldly.
“No, we really can’t take out the money now. Can you give us a few more days? How about I use the medicinal herbs in the shop to pay off the debt?” Xiao Jian’s father, Xiao Shu, hurriedly said.
“Use medicinal herbs to pay off the debt? I’m a Spiritual Warrior. What’s the use of the lousy medicine in your shop? I’m telling you, take out the money immediately, or else I’ll smash your shop.”The scarred youth clamored again.
“We really don’t have that much money. This… This is all our money.”
Xiao Shu took out all the money he could earn today, but in the end, he only had a little money.
Slap!
The scarred youth slapped away the little money and said coldly, “Are you trying to send away beggers? I think you are courting death. Smash this shop for me.”
“Yes, boss!”
Following the scarred youth’s order, a few underlings quickly lifted the things in the medicine shop and prepared to smash it.
The fatty even lifted the heavy medicine roller and raised it high, preparing to smash it wildly.
“I beg you not to smash it. I beg you.” Xiao Shu saw this scene and hurriedly begged. He originally thought that the medicine shop was going to be destroyed and smashed.
However, he did not expect that…
As soon as he said this, those hooligans all stopped. They all seemed to be petrified and did not move.
“You… What’s wrong with you guys?” Xiao Shu said blankly.
“Nothing… nothing. I think these medicinal herbs are pretty good. They’re helpful to my illness. Boss, I’ll buy these medicinal herbs no matter how much they cost.” The scarred youth hurriedly put down the medicinal herbs and said with cold sweat.
“Ah? These herbs are helpful to you? You’ll buy them all?” Xiao Shu was stunned and looked at the scar-faced young man blankly.
“Yes, I have been vomiting and diarrhea recently. I must buy some of your herbs. Is this money enough?”The scar-faced young man put a large pile of money on the counter and said with a trembling body.
“Vomiting and diarrhea? This medicine is not right. This is a laxative. Two taels of it can make an ordinary person vomit for half a day,” Xiao Shu explained.
“Laxative?”
The scarred youth was stunned. His mind was a little muddled, and he hurriedly changed his words. “Then… then give me some other medicine. Money is not a problem.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Money is not a problem. We are all here to see a doctor. We are all here to see a doctor.”
The other hooligans also hurriedly put down the things in their hands. They carefully lined up and stood in silence like obedient dogs.
They no longer shouted or cursed. They no longer charged protection fees. There was only silence.
The atmosphere at the scene became very good. It was like a scene of searching for medicine.
This scene made Xiao Jian’s parents extremely confused. They looked around and found a person standing in the aisle of the medicine store.
Someone leaned on the aisle and did not move. It tilted its head and stared at the scarred youth and the others in the store.
This person was none other than Li Xuan, the Black Werewolf.
Seeing Li Xuan standing there, Xiao Jian’s parents vaguely understood something. They could not help but look at the hooligans again.
As expected, these hooligans were trembling all over. They did not even dare to look at Li Xuan. It was obvious that they were afraid of Li Xuan.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Jian’s parents came to a sudden realization. Although they did not know why the hooligans were afraid of Li Xuan, it was definitely a good thing for the shop.
Therefore, Xiao Jian’s parents hurriedly took a few bottles of health care pills and sold them to the hooligans.
“Thank you, doctor. Thank you, doctor.”
The few hooligans took the medicine bottles and hurriedly thanked him. They lowered their heads and turned around to leave. However, just as they walked to the door of the shop, a voice sounded.
“Did I tell you to leave?”.
Following this calm voice, the bodies of the hooligans stiffened. Then, they hurriedly knelt down and quickly kowtowed.
“I’m sorry, Master Black Wolf. We didn’t know you were here. We won’t dare to do it again. Please spare us.”
“Yes, Master Black Wolf, I beg you. I have an old man and a young man. I can’t die. I really can’t die.”
“Master Black Wolf, as long as you spare us, we won’t take protection fees anymore. We’ll leave the civilian area immediately. We won’t come here even if we’re beaten to death.”
A few hooligans knelt on the ground and kowtowed crazily. Their heads banged against the ground, causing the tiles in the shop to stand up. However, they did not care and continued to kowtow and beg for mercy crazily. Seeing this scene, Xiao Jian’s parents were dazed.
They thought that the hooligans were afraid of Li Xuan, but they did not expect that the hooligans would be so afraid. They were so scared that they were about to cry.
This also made Xiao Jian’s parents look at Li Xuan in surprise.
“Okay, everyone, be quiet,” Li Xuan said coldly.
