Magic Star, Imperial Capital Suburban.
Jiang Ling, dressed in a grass-green pharmacist's outfit, covered his face with a hood, carrying a basket of freshly dug herbs on his back, and walked hurriedly towards the port.
She was once a well-known [pharmacist] within a hundred miles, but something happened recently that led to a dispute between doctors and patients. In order to avoid trouble, she spent more energy on improving the formula, so she had to be careful and try to avoid people.
Unfortunately, despite all precautions, Jiang Ling was still blocked at the door of his house.
Three men and one woman surrounded her, looking unkind.
Jiang Ling glanced at the four people and immediately recognized their identities - Jim, Bancroft, Morrison, Martha.
These people Jiang Ling all know each other. They are all residents of the port area. The four of them are brother and sister.
A few days ago, when these four people came to ask for medicine, they all looked groveling. At that time, Jiang Ling vaguely felt that something was not right, but did not take it to heart.
Now...
Seeing the ferocious expressions on their faces, Jiang Ling quickly realized that his original feeling was correct.
These four people are indeed not good people.
In the dark, the light from the torches cast a shadow on their facial features.
The faces of the four siblings, which were not very good-looking to begin with, now looked almost as terrifying as evil ghosts crawling out of Hades.
"Pharmacist Jiang Ling, I've finally waited for you!"
"Ha! Sure enough, the wait was not in vain! I thought you would just run away from Imperial Capital and go somewhere else to be happy!"
"Is there something wrong with this woman's brain? We have just gone through it. There is nothing in this shabby house. Why is she coming back?"
"Who knows... Those useless flowers and plants can't be sold for much money, and they won't even be fed to the dogs!"
From the speeches of these four people, Jiang Ling heard that they had already broken into his home and ransacked it.
Jiang Ling had already expected this.
Visibly her eyes were deflected, and after looking at the door lock that had obviously been smashed open, she still couldn't control her anger and scolded, "Back then, your father's intestines were broken by a wild boar while hunting. You are pretending to be pitiful here and saying that you can't get the money."
"I'm not an idiot. I can tell at a glance that you are all rich, you just don't want to spend money."
"I was so soft-hearted that I didn't even charge for the soup and medicine, and cured your father for free."
"Your behavior is repaying kindness with hatred!"
"Aren't you afraid that if you get sick or injured in the future, no one will be willing to treat you?"
Hearing this, the four brothers and sisters Jim, Bancroft, Morrison, and Martha did not feel ashamed at all. Instead, they retorted righteously.
"That old guy is dead when he dies. Who asked you to meddle in other people's business and let him live? In this way, we won't be able to share the family property. If we don't come to you to compensate, who will we come to?"
"Indeed, we made it so obvious back then. We just pretended to be pretentious and just go through the motions when we said we didn't have money for treatment. How could you really save him? You dragged us down for nothing. Do you know how much it costs to feed him for a day?"
"Yes! You must compensate us double... no, ten times the money! You are so famous here at the port and you have saved so many patients. You must have saved a lot of money!"
"Jim You all shut up! I am different from you. I have admired my father since I was a child. I came here just to ask her for an explanation! Although my father did not die because of her soup, he has been paralyzed in bed during this time and has no way to work in the field. He might as well be dead! This must be caused by her insufficient medical skills! She must pay compensation!"
Anyway, these four brothers and sisters only want money. No matter what they say, their purpose is highly consistent - to get money! Let Jiang Ling, as a pharmacist, compensate them for their "losses".
Hearing this, Jiang Ling was furious and wanted to kill all four of them directly.
"Suffering such a serious trauma, even if you get the best treatment, you still have to stay in bed to recuperate, unless you use healing magic directly, otherwise..."
Having said that, Jiang Ling will not explain anymore.
It dawned on her.
Jiang Ling knows that if there is no way to provide a "reward" that is satisfactory to the other party, then the only way to shut them up is to kill these annoying flies.
But Jiang Ling knew very well that once she killed these people, it would be equivalent to violating Imperial Iron Law. As an ordinary pharmacist, she did not even have the identity of Magic Apprentice. If she committed a felony of murder, she would probably be beheaded in public.
It's really not worth it to sacrifice your life for such a few rotten people!
"Only [Scoundrel Sam] can raise offspring like yours. Although I have no grudge against him, I have long heard that he is a bad gambler..."
Jiang Ling gritted his teeth and said, "My biggest weakness in life is that I am too kind and too soft-hearted... I swear to Goddess of Life that after today, I will never save anyone who is not worthy of treatment!"
Now that the matter was over, she no longer wanted to argue with these rotten people.
Because everyone has completely different views, continuing to waste time here will only be a waste of time.
"Stop talking nonsense! Pay money!"
"If you can't get the money, go pick up the customers and pay them back!"
"She owed us money and she refused to pay it back. If we arrest her, someone from above will ask, so that makes sense!"
The four brothers and sisters held torches in their hands and gradually surrounded them noisily, obviously planning to arrest people.
Jiang Ling gritted his teeth and put his hand on the medicine belt at his side.
She squandered all the money she had saved and developed the potion [Magic Energy No. 1], which can strengthen the body of the user with violent magic energy in a short period of time, giving the user powerful strength.
Although no real in vivo experiments have been conducted, based on the theoretical knowledge of Jiang Ling, although [Magic Energy No. 1] is far from meeting its own requirements and is far from the ultimate goal [Omnipotent Potion], its medicinal properties and toxicity are extremely strong, and it can directly exert its effects through oral administration, injection, skin absorption, etc.
In a critical moment, just crush the special potion bottle to make [Magic Energy No. 1] take effect, giving her at least three times the strength of a normal adult human!
It's just...
The side effects of medications are equally powerful.
Jiang Ling feels that with his own body, he has only a 20% chance of surviving after using [Magic Energy No. 1].
But...
Seeing the four brothers and sisters approaching gradually, she gritted her teeth and crushed the reagent bottle.
Snap!
However, Jiang Ling did not feel any pain.
The broken reagent bottle did not pierce the palm of her hand. The sprayed out medicine condensed into a ball, floated in the air, and gradually flew towards the distance.
Jiang Ling and the four siblings who were confronting her stopped their actions and looked in the direction of the potion.
They saw...
A handsome young man in strange clothes, with a cat squatting on his shoulder, stretched out a finger and gently touched the black potion floating in the air.
"It's the Master Magician!"
"Dear Master Magician, you must make the decision for us! This unscrupulous pharmacist tricked our father and made him lie in bed. He was too sick to work in the fields!"
"Yes, yes! We have been living very hard recently. We can only eat one meal of meat every other day, and we can't even get enough!"
"We... ah!"
Hearing these people's shameless remarks, Jiang Ling's face turned red with anger. He wanted to speak out to refute, but he felt that the other party had too many flaws and loopholes. For a moment, he didn't know where to start.
Fortunately...
The boy with the cat is not an idiot.
He interrupted the speeches of the four brothers and sisters without politeness with practical actions.
The young man in strange clothes turned his head, and a burning ice-blue light shot out from his eyes.
This cold light swept across the sky, and in an instant, it landed in front of the four brothers and sisters.
Sizzle...
The boiling light was like a waving Grim Reaper sickle. In the blink of an eye, it melted half of one of the people's bodies.
The remaining three people were frightened when they saw this.
One person let out a shrill scream, one person turned his head and ran away, and another person stood there dumbfounded.
"Killing someone! Help!"
In the houses at the port, lights were lit, and people kept sticking their heads out to look this way.
The boy with the cat still looked that cold-blooded and ruthless. He was determined to kill and had no intention of holding back.
The burning ice-blue flame raged across the port, like a violent netherworld fire, killing another person in the blink of an eye.
It was an unshaven man with triangular eyes.
He was caught up by the icy blue light and turned into a skeleton in an instant. His skin, flesh, nerves and brain were burned completely, and he died suddenly.
At this point, of the four brothers and sisters who came to "collect debts", only one boy and one girl remained.
Neither of them took any chances anymore.
They knew very well that they had encountered a bloodthirsty murderer. No matter how many people were watching, the other party would never be shaken in the slightest.
Instead, he knelt down and begged for mercy. There was still a slight possibility of survival.
So the two of them immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of the boy with the cat.
"We were wrong!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! We are willing to accept the punishment!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The dull sound of kowtows resounded in the dark night, reaching far, far away from Haikou.
Just...
The boy wearing a weird gold and blue Battle Uniform snapped his fingers expressionlessly.
Snap!
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good."
"In the next life, be a good person."
Uh-huh!
The burning ice-blue cold light showed no sign of loss after killing two people, but instead became more solid.
The young man's snap of his fingers seemed to be a signal, causing them to turn around in an instant and descend on the two "debt collectors". In an instant, everything about these two people was burned away, not even their ashes were left.
After doing this, the young man in a gold-blue uniform walked slowly to Jiang Ling, casually crushed a head on the ground with his combat boots, and moved the black liquid that had been floating in the air in front of the girl.
His nose twitched slightly, his eyes were cold, and he said calmly, "You made this medicine."
Declarative sentences rather than questions.
The orange Furry ball, who was squatting on the boy's shoulder and taking a nap, suddenly opened his eyes and meowed.
The sound made by the little female cat was like some kind of audio switch, pressing a strange button for the handsome boy in strange clothes, causing his expression to change, from indifferent and calm to joyful and joyful.
The young man's eyes fell on Jiang Ling's face, and his brows lit up with joy.
He grinned, revealing his white teeth, reached out his hand towards Jiang Ling enthusiastically, and said loudly, "I am Zhang Guangmu, nice to meet you!"
