evil tycoon

Han Ping'an grinned: "Kid, have you forgotten what Zhengqi Street is?"

"Hmph, Zhengqi Street can't suppress the coffin lids in all the shops along the street. And there's the nameless slope behind it, known as the mass grave slope, where the aura of corpses and evil spirits is so strong that ordinary people can't feel it."

"Such a small stick of incense, once lit, can suppress and dispel a significant amount of evil energy; that's quite remarkable."

"If that person comes again, we'll take as many as we can. There have been quite a few monsters appearing in the city lately; the one that startled you last time hasn't been caught yet."

Han Ping'an suddenly realized, then was shocked, and asked, "Uncle Ping'an, what was that monster last time?"

To be honest, he didn't even know what the monster that had attacked the original god was.

"I heard it's a rat demon."

"mouse?"

Han Ping'an's eyes widened. "A rat that has become a spirit?"

This is insane.

Gu Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the yamen's patrols have been strengthened. We just didn't pay attention last time. If that thing dares to show its face on Zhengqi Street again, we'll make it wish it were dead."

After Han Ping'an's accident last time, he was terrified and was severely scolded by Lao Gu.

Han Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "If that rat demon reappears, with my current special abilities and my body full of yin energy, I might not be afraid."

How many are left?

"Take what you have in your hand, Uncle. There are fourteen more," Han Ping'an said.

Gu Ping'an put down the incense sticks and said, "Pack them up one by one later, and I'll take them all with me. These things don't sell well in the shop, so I'll go out and deliver them directly to customers who need them."

"Uncle Ping An is still the best."

Han Ping'an gave a thumbs up.

Gu Ping'an smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You received the incense and candles well; here's a three-tael reward for you."

Gu Ming suddenly interjected, "Uncle, three liang is too little. Ping An's health has improved a lot in the past few years. I taught him Rolling Stone Fist a while ago. With some effort, he might become a martial artist."

"real?"

Gu Ping'an was stunned, unable to believe it.

Gu Ming grinned: "More real than real gold."

"Let me see."

Gu Pingan raised his hand towards Han Pingan.

They were already very familiar with each other, so the meaning of this gesture was self-evident.

Han Pingan reached out and handed it over.

Old Gu placed his fingers on his wrist to take his pulse.

Although he couldn't compare to a proper pharmacist, he was very unconventional and knew a little about everything, including basic pulse diagnosis.

A few breaths later.

Old Gu was both surprised and delighted: "Good, good, good! It's really well treated. Your energy is quite strong, and you're fully capable of practicing martial arts now."

"It's a pity it's a bit too late."

Han Ping'an smiled and said, "Uncle, it's not too late. Being able to practice martial arts is already a great fortune. I don't expect to be like Brother Ming and you uncles."

"Uncle, I can't take this money. I still have some saved up. If it weren't for you taking me in back then, I would be dead..."

"Shut up, you're acting like a nagging woman."

"Take it if I give it to you, and take five taels from your account yourself."

Old Gu glared at him, his tone unfriendly.

Han Ping'an immediately shut up and gave an awkward smile.

Damn, does this count as taking something for free and eating it at the same time?

He felt a little guilty about it.

Old Gu was very happy to hear the news, but he quickly wiped the smile off his face and said with a serious expression, "Be careful lately. Daming, don't go out and wander around unless you have to. Stay in the shop. It's not safe outside."

"Um?"

"Besides the demonic disturbance, the Black Tiger Hall and the Snake Hand Gang are also fighting like madmen; in addition, I received news that a group of vicious people have come from outside the area. They are really bold and have even attacked the young masters of aristocratic families."

"in case."

Gu Pingan's tone was serious, mainly directed at Han Pingan and Gu Ming.

Han Ping'an's expression hardened. Although he had gone out in the wrong way, he still had a lot of common sense and experience.

Gang warfare, along with thugs from out of town, is likely to cause considerable chaos.

"You watch the shop from the front, I'll go to the back and tidy up some things."

Gu Pingan glanced at Han Pingan, then gave Gu Ming a wink before walking towards the back.

"Uncle, what should we do with these tree worms?" Han Ping'an asked.

"We'll pack them individually and put a note on the door saying the tree worms have arrived. Whether it's a pharmacy or anyone else buying them, each one will cost at least three ounces."

"it is good."

One bird weighs three taels, so more than twenty birds would weigh sixty taels.

The grocery store may seem inconspicuous, especially in a place like Zhengqi Street, but its income and profits, when added together, are no small amount.

"Three ounces..."

Han Ping'an stared at the cylinder and licked his lips. Listening to the sound of the backyard door opening and closing, he slowly summoned the panel that had been pressed down earlier.

【The white-winged tree insect, with 108 drops of blood and eleven streams of vital energy, is forged into a blood-winged insect. It is as fast as lightning, its blood wings are like blades, and its mouthparts bite and gnaw, paralyzing and nourishing itself with blood.

"Damn, it can even work on living things."

"That's outrageous."

He was so shocked when he touched the white-winged tree insect that it suddenly triggered the Life Cauldron.

Living things can also be cast; we should pay more attention to this aspect in the future.

Anyway, whatever it is, I'll handle it first.

Looking at the description on the panel, Han Ping'an's eyes sharpened.

The Bloodwing Insect's abilities are extraordinary, especially considering that as an insect, it is bloodthirsty and can paralyze people, which is a great asset.

It must be cast.

"One hundred and eight drops of blood is nothing, but eleven strands of vital energy will likely cause noticeable weakness."

Even a child could deduce that the loss of these eleven streams of vital energy definitely exceeded three or four hundred drops of blood.

Han Ping'an glanced at the backyard, thought for a moment, and decided to wait.

You should prepare in advance.

First, go to the pharmacy to buy some medicine to replenish blood and restore vitality, then brew it before casting.

……

Inside a room in the backyard of the grocery store.

There was a large gap in the floor next to the bed.

Below was a huge cave.

Gu Pingan took out several boxes from inside and started organizing his things.

Gu Ming frowned and asked, "Uncle, has something happened?"

Old Gu said quietly, "The third daughter of the Lu family is quite a character. She was targeted in the black market a few days ago."

"Damn it, just because he's a member of the Lu family, he's planning to mess with me."

"The Lu family..." Gu Ming's expression changed drastically: "Uncle, what should we do?"

Old Gu looked up and grinned: "What do you mean, what to do? I've already killed that little girl and framed that group of new thugs. They haven't been here these past few days because they're hiding out the limelight and waiting to see how the Lu family reacts."

"Holy crap."

"Old Gu, you..."

Gu Ming's eyes widened in disbelief, and his lips trembled.

Damn, that's incredibly bold!

The Lu family is one of the most prominent families in the county.

That third master of the Lu family only has one daughter, and the key point is that she is not a good-for-nothing. She has a remarkable talent for martial arts and an extraordinary mind.

If you kill him, wouldn't Lu Laosan go crazy?

Gu Ming's liver was trembling.

We're just running a shady business.

"What are you afraid of? You don't even know it was me who did it."

Seeing Gu Ming's reaction, Old Gu curled his lip and said disdainfully, "Even if things don't go well, you still have your uncle and aunt. We have people backing us up."

"If the Lu family really investigates, your uncle, aunt, and I will join forces to slaughter the entire Lu family, leaving a river of blood."

"..."

Gu Ming's expression twisted, and he rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"If my uncle and aunt knew you had this idea, they'd probably kill you first."

"Shut up."

"By the way, did you go to find my uncle with the incense and candles just now?"

"Nonsense, your uncle runs a shop right next door. He's accumulated decades of evil energy; who else would you go after if not him?"

"I knew it! I didn't expect these incense sticks to actually have something special about them. Can we get them out?"

"Damn it, you know that already and you still ask? Are you sick in the head?"

"Your uncle said it's difficult and time-consuming, so it's completely unnecessary."

"By the way, don't run around recklessly lately. Even if Ping An can practice martial arts, he's still too weak for now. He won't be able to handle any danger. If anything happens to him, I'll skin you alive."

"Don't worry, if anything really happens, I'll definitely die before Ping An."

"Damn it, you jinx! If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all."
