Chapter 687: But I'm a monster

As a fox demon with a shallow Taoism, Hu Li does not have a deep grasp of people's hearts. Although the status quo makes him angry, it is more because his theft has been made public and it is not suitable for being pointed by the people around him.

Hu Li's sense of shame is not deep enough. Based on his Taoism and experience, even if he already understands that stealing is not good in human's conception, it is not enough to strongly agree with the human race's concept of stealing honor and disgrace. The sight and the pointing were enough to make him nervous.

So when I heard Ji Yuan said to put away the medicine and leave, Hu Li was like a pardon.

"Yes, I'll put it away!"

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

And the shopkeeper of the pharmacy next to him heard Ji Yuan's words and saw Hu Li sorting out the herbs, and immediately reached out and grabbed Hu Li's arm.

"What's the matter? You still want to leave after being arrested? Tell me where did the medicinal materials come from?"

"You release! Release!"

Hu Li struggled, but the pharmacy shopkeeper grabbed his hands tightly, and immediately bared his teeth at him with a fierce look on his face.

"Bah..."

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

"Why, you are a thief, can't you do it?"

"Yeah, you still want to do it?" "That's it, they're just robbers!"

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

Hu Li had already packed the herbs and took the sack in his hand, but when he turned his head and saw that he seemed to be surrounded, he subconsciously looked at Ji Yuan, but before Ji Yuan spoke, the shopkeeper had already come to the door one step ahead. , stopped there.

"Don't leave, don't explain the origin of this herbal medicine, just go to the official with me!"

"I already said that I went to the deep mountains to pick it up, and I haven't dried it yet, so I didn't steal it!"

Ji Yuan looked at the shopkeeper from one side, and knew that the other party must have other words, but he turned his face for the sake of profit. This kind of person is not very good at doing justice for justice.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper said immediately.

"The herbalist who has been supplying my Qicaotang for a long time has already said that recently, people often stole the herbs in their yard that can't be dried in the future, but the thieves are cunning and have never been able to catch them. I think the herbs you brought today are Those herbal masters from my strange cottage!"

"And your gentleman, looking at your gentle appearance, it's fine if you're just bewitched by this thief. If you're still an accomplice, then seeing the official, the scholar and scholar's face might not be easy, right?"

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

"If it's normal trading, how much are these medicinal materials worth?"

"You, why are you asking this?"

"Five old ginseng plants with a good age, as well as Lingzhi, Shouwu, Huangjing, etc., is it three dangling money?"

With so many people around, the shopkeeper of course couldn't say nonsense, he could only say a relatively normal number.

"The old ginseng in this bag of medicinal materials is very old. If it is traded normally, it would not be too much to count 10 taels of silver, but the stolen goods from 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 a little bit from the outside, and the people watching the fun were separated by him.

"Who?" "You..."

"I don't have long eyes..."

Some wanted to scold, but when they saw the other party like this, they dared to be angry and didn't dare to say anything, and Jin Jia didn't care about the words of others. He swept aside a few pharmacy workers like a child, and entered the pharmacy. The inside bowed to Ji Yuan and saluted, but did not call out a respectful name.

Jin Jia's entry also seemed to extinguish the arrogance of several people in the pharmacy, and became uneasy. It was really Jin Jia's physique and demeanor, and at first glance, he knew that it was not easy to mess with.

"You, what do you want to do? Be careful of me reporting to the officer! Hey, hey, hey..."

The shopkeeper was directly grabbed by Jin Jia and lifted up by the front of his shirt. He kept kicking with his feet off the ground, and he kept exclaiming in exclamation, but the people around him just retreated to keep a safe distance, and even the guys in the shop didn't dare to approach.

"Of course I go to see the official. After a while, I can ask the master to summon the old master of your pharmacy to confront me. My red-faced follower is quick-tempered and has a bad temper. Naturally, I won't do anything to you here, and I'll talk about it after seeing the judge's judgment!"

"You can also go together."

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

"Don't say no, spare your life, a hero, spare your life, a hero... I'll give you the money, I'll give you the money, and I'll give you whatever you want! You guys, stop them, stop them!"

stop them? Of course, the people watching the fun will not look for trouble, and the guys in the shop don't dare to look directly at the golden armor, they just feel that the big bangzi punches down, and he is afraid that he will directly open the scoop.

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

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

Along the way, Hu Li laughed out loud, constantly mocking the panic-stricken shopkeeper in Jin Jia's hands.

"Dong dong dong dong dong..."

The drumming sounded outside the yamen...

"Ascension~~~~~"

The official was sitting high, and the yamen officers stood on both sides. The interrogation process was quick but cruel. The prefect who watched Ji Yuan and Jin Jia had an extraordinary bearing, and they seemed to have a lot of background. In addition, the so-called herbalist master was confronted. Get to the bottom soon.

The sentence "fifty big boards hit hard" came out of the official's mouth, and immediately a sergeant severely punished the pharmacy shopkeeper.

"Bang..." "Bang..." "Bang..." "Bang..."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

The board was hit, and the screams made Hu Li panic, and the pharmacy owner shouted until his throat was hoarse, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted, and the people watching the lively outside the hall were silent.

"Holi, what do you think?"

Hu Li swallowed and whispered.

"Sir, is this going to be too much? It's only twenty big boards, so he can't hold it anymore. If he goes down fifty boards, will he die?"

"I don't know the severity of this official's punishment. If you go down the fifty boards, you will probably lose your life."

"Ah? Well, what can I do, sir?"

Seeing Hu Li anxious, 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 not the same! It is not the same! Of course I am angry that he wronged me and wanted to deceive me about the medicinal materials, but it is too much to kill him directly, and he is still a doctor! Sir, please stop them, 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 in a trance, blurry like clouds and fog, making him feel a little dizzy.

But the next moment, as if the snot bubble was punctured in his drowsiness, Hu Li suddenly woke up again. There were other courts and officials around, and he was clearly still in the pharmacy, and he was concentrating the medicinal materials on the counter.

It was also at this moment that the drugstore owner's hand just happened to grab Hu Li's arm. Hu Li looked at the drugstore owner, but found that the other party's eyes were dazed for a moment, then he recovered, and then his face was filled with a faint sense of panic.

"Why, the shopkeeper, are you not allowed to leave?"

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

The owner of the pharmacy even pulled his hand back, looked around nervously, touched his face, then his **** and back, panting slightly, with a look of happiness on his face.

"No, it's nothing, just now, just now, it's abrupt. This medicinal material, whether the two of you are selling it or not, will give you ten, no, you will give twenty taels!"

Hu Li widened his eyes and turned to look at Ji Yuan, who smiled.

"The medicine is yours. You decide whether to sell it or not. What do you think I do?"

"Sell! Then don't go back and say twenty taels yourself!"

"Yes, yes, no regrets, no regrets!"

The shopkeeper hurried back to the counter to get the money. During this period, he saw the dumbfounded guys in his shop and the people watching the fun outside, and he immediately shouted at them.

"Go, go, work!"

"And all of you, it was a misunderstanding just now, a misunderstanding, I admit the wrong person, and I wronged a good person, it's all a misunderstanding, it's all gone, it's all gone!"

After chasing people away, the shopkeeper took the money 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. I was offended by the villain just now. If it's disrespectful, I still look to Haihan, I still look to Haihan!"

Hu Li took the silver in a daze~www.NovelMTL.com~ Seeing the shopkeeper salute again and again, he apologized with sincerity and fear, and the anger in his heart disappeared. After returning the salute with the silver, he left with Ji Yuan. pharmacy.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy stood at the door and continued to salute the two of them. Then, in his heart palpitations, he saw a tall and burly man with red skin following the two of them leaving...

After the three of Ji Yuan walked for a while, the sight around them faded, and Hu Li, who got the silver, was very happy. He stuffed some of the money into the prepared purse, and kept playing with a piece of silver in his hand, as happy as a child.

"Sir, I'm rich. Twenty taels is a lot, right? By the way, did the shopkeeper see the yamen and the boardroom just now?"

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

"Of course you have a lot of money, but it is more important to decide what is right and what is right than money. What the shopkeeper shows is human nature, and what you show is also human nature. Which is good or bad, which is right or wrong?"

"But I'm a demon?"

"Hahahahaha..."

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

"Hey, sir, it's me, right? It's not him, right?"
