Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

"Yueyue, run! I'll hold them off!"

Li Mu immediately said to Mingyue.

"Master, there are five or six of them, you..."

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Having you around is actually making me feel restricted. Run!"

Li Mu interrupted Mingyue and gave her a push, saying...

"Alright! Master, I'll wait for you at home!"

Without further hesitation, Mingyue turned and ran.

She knew that staying wouldn't be of much help to her master, and having witnessed his incredible skills, she wasn't too worried.

Seeing Mingyue run away, Li Mu turned around and looked at Bald Qiang and the others who were rushing over.

"You two go after that little wench!"

After Bald Qiang and his gang surrounded Li Mu, they first sent two of their underlings to chase after Ming Yue.

Whoosh!

Thump thump!

"Ouch!"

"what!"

However, just as the two burly thugs were about to move, they suddenly felt a sharp pain in their thighs, screamed, and collapsed.

It turned out that Li Mu quickly kicked out two low roundhouse kicks, directly knocking down the two burly men.

"Damn it! That old bastard's got a death wish! Get him!"

Bald Qiang was furious that Li Mu, this seemingly old and frail man, would dare to fight them.

Whoosh!

The three thugs behind him immediately attacked Li Mu.

Passersby, seeing the fight, were terrified and moved away, while some onlookers took out their phones and hid a short distance away to film the scene.

Although Li Mu hasn't had time to practice some of the basic fist and leg techniques from the martial arts tradition, with his current strength, flexibility, and reaction speed, these three thugs have no chance of beating him.

Whoohoo!

Puff puff!

His fists and feet moved like the wind, and his movements were extremely agile. The three burly men were knocked to the ground by Li Mu before they could even touch his clothes.

"what……"

"Ouch..."

The three thugs were lying on the ground, either hugging their arms or legs, screaming in agony.

This scene left Bald Qiang stunned, frozen in place, his face filled with disbelief.

He never expected that this old geezer would know kung fu, and be so skilled at it!

The onlookers gasped in surprise.

"Holy crap! This old man's amazing! He's got some martial arts skills!"

"Yes, he's a master! At his age, he can take on three strong men like they're children!"

"Awesome! Awesome! I've finally met a real martial arts master today!"

"Holy crap! If this video gets uploaded online, it's guaranteed to go viral!"

……

"I don't know who you are, but if you lose at the casino, you have to accept it! And you want to steal your money back? Are you even a man?"

Li Muchao took two steps closer to the stunned Bald Qiang and cursed.

The latter was so frightened that he took two steps back, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Li Mu.

"...Um...Master, please, please don't be angry. I, I actually..."

Bald Qiang was so frightened that he stammered incoherently, and before he could finish speaking, he turned around and ran away as fast as he could.

After running several dozen meters, he jumped up again, pointed at Li Mu, and shouted threats: "You old bastard! You just wait! You dare hit one of my men, Bald Qiang's men? I'll kill your whole family!"

"You bastard! You dare threaten me?"

Li Mu originally didn't want to chase after this bastard, but since Bald Qiang dared to threaten him, he cursed and picked up the slingshot he had just obtained. He then picked up a pebble the size of a fingernail from the ground and launched it at the other man using the technique he used to shoot sparrows when he was a child.

Although Li Mu could only stretch the rubber band of the slingshot a few centimeters, it was still able to launch the stone.

Don't underestimate those few centimeters of stretch; this elasticity contains Li Mu's strongest hand strength right now.

Whoosh!

Pfft!

when!

"what……"

With Li Mu's superhuman eyesight, he clearly saw the stone launched by the slingshot fly through the air like a bullet and hit Bald Qiang's left arm precisely.

It actually pierced right through his arm!

That wasn't the end of it. After piercing through Bald Qiang's arm, the pebble also pierced through a metal lamppost in front of him!

The pebble turned into a small cloud of ash after it pierced the lamppost.

This shocking scene was impossible for anyone to see clearly except for Li Mu.

After all, the stones were moving too fast, so there wasn't much of a sound.

All everyone heard was Bald Qiang scream as he fled, assuming he had been hit by a slingshot, but little did they know that a hole had been pierced through his left arm.

Bald Qiang was terrified. Clutching his arm, he stumbled and disappeared into the crowd like a frightened wild rabbit.

Li Mu did not pursue, but stared blankly at the slingshot in his hand.

Yes, he was so shocked by the slingshot's power that he was somewhat dazed.

Holy crap, how could a mere pebble pierce through a person's arm?

And then it can even penetrate a metal rod?!

This is much more powerful than a pistol bullet!

What if it wasn't a pebble, but a steel ball?

Wouldn't that be even more devastating?

This slingshot is amazing!

Li Mu stared at the slingshot in his hand, which to most people looked like a child's worn-out toy, and his mind went blank with shock.

He realized that he had found an amazing treasure!

This slingshot is an excellent self-defense weapon. It is not only incredibly powerful but also easy to carry. Most importantly, it is not a controlled item!

"You bastard!"

Li Mu took several seconds to calm himself down, glanced at the few thugs still lying on the ground, cursed, then dusted off his sleeves and left.

All that remained behind him were sighs and lamentations from the onlookers.

When Li Mu returned home, he found that Ming Yue was not there.

So he called Mingyue, but she didn't answer.

Because Mingyue didn't have an ID card, the phone card she used was a family card from Li Mu's SIM card.

He had a bad feeling that he couldn't see anyone and they weren't answering their phones.

Li Mu quickly tried to cast a divination to see if he could make a prediction, but to his dismay, the divination failed again.

drop by drop...

Just as Li Mu was getting anxious, his phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed Ming Yue.

"Girl, why haven't you gone home? Where are you?"

After answering the phone, Li Mu immediately asked.

"Old man! Mingyue is coming home with us. Don't contact her again! Otherwise, you'll be dead!"

However, a warning voice came from the other end of the phone.

The other party hung up the phone after speaking.

Li Mu's body jolted. He recognized the voice; it was the middle-aged man with a gun who had taken Mingyue hostage at Qianlong Mountain that day.

Li Mu never expected that Mingyue had been kidnapped by her own family.

However, he felt that it was much better for the girl to be taken back by her family than to be captured by Bald Qiang's men.

Although he didn't know what Mingyue had done at home to run away, he could tell that the girl really hated her family.

Although Li Mu knew that Mingyue couldn't live with him forever and would eventually have to go home.

But this happened too quickly. He had just established a mentor-student and friend-like relationship with the girl when Mingyue suddenly disappeared from his life.

Li Mu's life had been filled with loneliness and a desolate home, but with Mingyue's sudden arrival, he felt that his life had become much happier and warmer these past few days.

Now that the talkative, carefree girl is gone, without even a chance to say goodbye, Li Mu feels a void in his heart.

His life suddenly returned to normal, even more desolate than before.

He sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and smoked it silently.

Wisps of smoke drifted through the living room, much like his lonely and solitary soul.

Boom boom boom!

Suddenly, a series of urgent knocks broke the silence in the living room.

If someone knocks on the door instead of ringing the doorbell, you can bet it's Cai'er from across the hall.

"Grandpa Li, please, please come quickly! My mother has suddenly collapsed and isn't moving!"

After opening the door, Cai'er grabbed Li Mu's hand and said loudly.

"Lying motionless on the ground?"

Li Mu was startled and quickly went to Yang Yuxiu's house.
