Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor
Chapter 51 Encountering the Country Girl Again
Clearly, the young lady was unaware of what was happening outside. She had vaguely heard Brother Qiang cursing in the bathroom, but she hadn't clearly heard the two gunshots that were greatly muffled by silencers.
"...Sir, are you...are you here to see Brother Qiang?"
The young lady looked at Li Mu and asked.
"Get out of this room right now! Or I'll kill you!"
Li Mu's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he issued a cold warning.
"...Oh, I, I'll go get my bag..."
"Don't take it! Get out of here right now! Remember, don't tell anyone you saw me, or you'll suffer a terrible death!"
Li Mu threatened sharply.
"...Okay, okay!"
The young lady shuddered at Li Mu's appearance, and then realized that the powerful Brother Qiang was completely silent. She realized that something might have happened, and without daring to ask any more questions, she hurriedly fled the room in a panic.
Li Mu ultimately decided to let the innocent girl go.
Although doing so would likely leave him with huge future troubles, even so, he couldn't kill innocent people indiscriminately for his own safety!
The old immortal, Tianyi Saint Venerable, had warned him that after receiving the inheritance, he must uphold good intentions and not do evil, a warning Li Mu dared not forget.
Moreover, Li Mu was not originally a person who would do evil.
Li Mu finally let out a long sigh of relief after leaving the club and getting into a taxi.
Only then did he realize that his heart was pounding; after all, this was the first time in his life he had killed someone.
Even though they are all villains who deserve to die, this sense of horror is still unavoidable.
But at the same time, he also felt an indescribable sense of joy and pride deep inside.
Bald Qiang and his gang ran rampant and lawless in the southern district. Although Li Mu was forced into a corner by them and had no choice but to fight back, he was still ridding the people of a menace.
Having received a mysterious inheritance and gained superhuman abilities, Li Mu felt that using these abilities to punish evil and promote good was what someone blessed by heaven should do.
He felt like a lone hero fighting against evil tonight, with a hidden sense of pride in his heart.
But thinking of the witness he had let go, Li Mu couldn't help but worry, so he quickly cast a divination to calculate the outcome.
After successfully casting the hexagram, the result is the hexagram Water over Heaven (謝), which represents the need for growth. This hexagram signifies that growth requires trials and tribulations.
The body trigram of this hexagram is Qian (Heaven), which represents uprightness and the right path, while the upper trigram is Kan (Water), which represents danger.
The divination indicates that Li Mu's actions tonight are risky for the sake of justice. There are risks involved, but these risks are above justice, meaning that the risks come from evil forces that dare to override the power of law and justice.
From this, Li Mu deduced that the young lady he let go probably wouldn't call the police, but the criminal gang behind Bald Qiang might find out from her who killed him.
This means that Li Mu is very likely to face retaliation from the forces behind Bald Qiang.
In Li Mu's view, dealing with the evildoers' retaliation is much better than dealing with the police investigation.
He does possess superhuman strength now, but he really doesn't want to confront the police or the law unless absolutely necessary.
Besides, with his current strength, he doesn't have the confidence to go against the law.
Li Mu didn't rush home because he was worried that the forces behind Bald Qiang might retaliate against his home.
Although the previous divination indicated that the danger tonight could be averted, he decided to go home later just to be on the safe side.
So Li Mu simply went to the park to find a place to cultivate.
Having just used the Transformation Technique twice and performed divination, his primordial spiritual energy in his dantian was almost depleted.
He couldn't let the spiritual energy in his dantian run out, so he needed to cultivate and replenish it as soon as possible.
This time, Li Mu cultivated for a full three and a half hours before he felt the primordial spiritual energy in his dantian was saturated.
This indicates that the cultivation technique has broken through to the middle stage of the first level, and the refinement and total amount of the primordial spiritual energy in the dantian have indeed increased.
Li Mu now believes that the amount of primordial spiritual energy in his dantian is more than enough for him to cast the Transformation Technique three times in a row.
After finishing his cultivation, it was almost eleven o'clock when Li Mu saw that Yang Yuxiu had sent him a message.
She said Xuehua was already asleep, so she let her stay at her house overnight and would deliver Xuehua to her house the next morning.
Li Mu replied with an "okay" and went home.
When he arrived at the entrance of the residential area, he saw a person huddled in a dark corner outside the gate.
Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the same country girl he had encountered in the park earlier that day who had asked for shelter.
At that moment, the girl hugged her knees tightly, squatted in the corner of the wall, shivering in the cold night wind, looking very pitiful.
Li Mu stepped forward and asked, "Girl, why are you squatting here?"
"Grandpa? It's you! I... I have nowhere else to stay, so I was thinking of just spending the night here..."
Shi Tang suddenly looked up, feigning surprise, and two lines of tears streamed down her face.
Actually, she was deliberately waiting here for Li Mu.
When Li Mu went out in the evening, she saw him outside the gate of the community, and then waited for him to come home at the gate as Ma Tao instructed.
Li Mu lives in this neighborhood, which was something Ma Tao told her about.
Ma Tao told her that she had to act as pitiful as possible, and the two lines of tears that appeared in her eyes at that moment were also Shi Tang's performance.
There's nothing she wouldn't do to save her brother.
It must be said that Shi Tang's acting skills are really good. Li Mu really felt sympathy for this poor homeless girl at this moment.
But he still didn't intend to bring a young woman home rashly, so he took out his wallet from his pocket, counted out two thousand yuan, and handed it to Shi Tang.
"Girl, here's some money. Go find a hotel to stay in first. Then find a job during the day. It's too dangerous for you to be out there alone like this!"
Shi Tang blinked in surprise when she saw that Li Mu would give her so much money.
She discovered that the old man was actually a kind person.
Deep down, they inevitably feel a stronger sense of guilt and remorse.
However, right now, her desire to save her brother outweighs everything else.
Shi Tang didn't take the money Li Mu offered. Instead, she grabbed his arm and pleaded loudly, "Kind Grandpa, I just want a place to sleep and eat. I'm not a beggar, I can't take your money. I won't eat and stay at your house for free, I can help you with the housework!"
However, the moment the country girl grabbed Li Mu's arm, Li Mu's body jolted, and his eyes were filled with immense shock as he looked at the girl!
