Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

This pharmacy is quite large, and there are many people queuing up right now.

So Lin Yaoxie stood at the door, thinking that he would go in after they finished buying.

Lin Yaoxie waited outside for half an hour.

At this moment, he entered the shop, where there were two people in line ahead of him. So, Lin Yaoxie joined the line behind them.

Finally, it was Lin Yaoxie's turn.

"Boss, I wanted to ask if you sell Fukumaru here?" Lin Yaoxie asked.

"Hey, my shop is so big, what kind of medicine don't I sell?" the shopkeeper said with a grin.

So he turned around and took out a box.

"Alright, thank you, boss. Oh, and could you also bring me some healing medicine?" Lin Yaoxie added.

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll get it for you right away," the shopkeeper said.

So Lin Yaoxie stood there and waited for a while longer.

The boss brought all the medicine.

"Young master, that'll be seven hundred taels of silver in total," the shopkeeper said with a smile.

Lin Yaoxie's face froze upon hearing this.

"Boss, what did you just say? How much did you say it was?" Lin Yaoxie asked again in disbelief.

"It's seven hundred taels of silver, is that alright?" The shopkeeper repeated the price.

"Why is it so expensive?" Lin Yaoxie said, then touched the money in his pocket. He simply didn't have that much money.

Upon hearing this, the boss immediately wiped the smile off his face.

With a cold expression, the shopkeeper said, "This is already quite cheap. The main problem is that Fukumaru is expensive; you simply can't buy it in other shops."

"Just tell me directly, how much does this Fukumaru cost here?" Lin Yaoxie asked coldly.

He had bought Fukumaru elsewhere before, and the price there was never this high. Now, the price is so low it's practically ripping a person off completely.

"This Fukumaru costs six hundred taels of silver," the shopkeeper said impatiently.

"Boss, are you kidding me? You're telling me this box of Fukumaru costs over six hundred taels of silver? Do you really think I'm stupid? Do you know how much it would cost elsewhere? It only sells for fifty taels of silver there. You're cheating consumers!" Lin Yaoxie said, his eyes wide.

If he hadn't bought Fukumaru, he probably would have been really cheated by this unscrupulous boss.

"I told you to stop rambling on about other places. You're just bragging here. How could it possibly sell for fifty taels of silver elsewhere? Alright, if you can't afford it, then stop arguing and go buy it somewhere else." The shopkeeper waved his hand, ready to shoo the customer away.

Lin Yaoxie naturally wouldn't leave just like that. Firstly, Ling Yue desperately needed this medicine, and secondly, Lin Yaoxie couldn't stand by and watch this unscrupulous boss continue to operate in such a corrupt manner.

"Boss, you're unlucky to have met me today. You have to sell me this Fukumaru for fifty taels of silver, or I'm not leaving today. You're a businessman, you have to have a conscience, you can't lose your conscience for money," Lin Yaoxie said.

"Don't give me that. If you can't afford it, don't come here. Just leave. I don't welcome troublemakers like you here," the shopkeeper said.

Then, the boss reached out to take the medicine back.

Lin Yaoxie swiftly drew his sword and placed it in front of the medicines.

Chapter Forty-Eight: A Fight Broke Out

The boss was startled and quickly pulled his hand back.

"Looks like you're determined to cause trouble today. You wouldn't happen to be a competitor, would you? Is that why you're here to smash up my shop?" The shop owner sized up Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie suddenly laughed.

"Boss, how could you tell we're in the same business? I'm your customer. I'm not an unreasonable person. I know it's not easy for you business people, but it's not easy for us customers either. Our money doesn't grow on trees. You... hurry up and lower the prices of your medicines, then I'll pay and leave. It's that simple," Lin Yaoxie said.

This time, it was the boss's turn to smile.

"Don't kid me, okay? Why should I listen to you? If I lower the price of all those medicines, how am I supposed to make money? Can you take care of my wife, kids, and elderly parents?" the shop owner said.

"Fine, since you refuse to lower your price, I'll go to the authorities right now and report you for selling medicine at exorbitant prices," Lin Yaoxie threatened.

Despite Lin Yaoxie's words, the boss remained calm and composed.

"If you were to report me, and it were useful, my shop would have closed long ago, and you wouldn't be buying medicine from me anymore," the shop owner said.

Lin Yaoxie was shocked. But he quickly realized that this boss had already bribed the government officials...

Lin Yaoxie was furious at the moment. He hated this kind of social atmosphere. But at the same time, he also knew very well that no matter how much he hated it, he couldn't change anything by himself.

"Put the medicine down and get out of here, and that'll be the end of it. If you linger here and waste my time any more, I'll make you regret it," the boss said menacingly.

Lin Yaoxie simply took out his sword and threw it onto the table.

But the boss glanced at Lin Yaoxie's sword, wasn't afraid at all, and instead laughed.

Lin Yaoxie felt that the boss's smile was very strange.

"I initially thought you were a fellow gangster, but I didn't expect you to be a江湖人士 (jianghu person, someone from the martial arts world). Generally speaking,江湖人 are relatively poor, which I can understand, but being poor doesn't mean you can cause trouble here. Men!" The boss suddenly stopped smiling and gave an order.

Soon, a large group of people ran out from behind and surrounded Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie became wary. The other side had sent quite a few people.

Lin Yaoxie sneered.

"I knew you were so arrogant. So you were prepared all along," Lin Yaoxie said.

Soon, those people took out knives and slashed at Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie dodged, and then took the initiative to fight them.

The shop owner sat to the side watching.

"What a fool! He's delivered himself right to my doorstep, so don't blame me for being impolite," the boss said casually.

Lin Yaoxie showed no mercy in dealing with them.

A single sword pierced a person's heart.

The man quickly collapsed in front of Lin Yaoxie.

The stench of blood filled the air.

Lin Yaoxie became increasingly ruthless.

After taking down one group, another group rushed out from inside.

Now, Lin Yaoxie finally understood why the owner's shop could be so big.

"Oh dear, I advise you not to struggle anymore, since you're going to die here with me sooner or later anyway."

"The boss said."

Lin Yaoxie snorted coldly.

"It's still uncertain who will die in the end," Lin Yaoxie said coldly.

What he couldn't stand most was the boss's attitude, so he gripped the sword in his hand and stabbed at the boss.

At this moment, several people blocked the boss's way, and Lin Yaoxie failed to stab him.

After a fierce fight, Lin Yaoxie killed many of the enemy's men, and Lin Yaoxie himself was exhausted.

Everyone stopped at the same time.

The boss looked at Lin Yaoxie, and Lin Yaoxie met his gaze.

After a long silence, the boss said, "What, you still haven't given up?"

Lin Yaoxie sneered: "Give up? Unless you do what I just said, I will never give up."

"Fine, when you're begging me for help later, men, arrest him!" the boss said, slamming his hand on the table.

So everyone swarmed towards Lin Yaoxie.

Suddenly, a sharp sword pierced Lin Yaoxie's chest, but it didn't go too deep.

Lin Yaoxie paused, because that place was precisely where the malevolent energy was hidden!

His eyes suddenly changed color.

0oooo Requesting flowers.

Everyone was stunned for a moment after seeing Lin Yaoxie's sudden change.

Because he looks absolutely terrifying right now.

Lin Yaoxie's spiritual energy suddenly turned black. And this black mass grew larger and larger.

The boss was so startled that he stood up.

"You're all going to die!" Lin Yaoxie said, and then everyone around him was shaken away by the malevolent aura emanating from him.

Lin Yaoxie brandished the sword in his hand; he desperately wanted to see a certain color.

It's bright red, the color of blood.

The boss was so frightened that he immediately ran to the back.

The path behind leads to where the boss lives.

Lin Yaoxie eliminated all of them in one go.

...0

Then, he headed towards the back door. Before the boss could even close the door, Lin Yaoxie rushed over.

He kicked the door open and held the knife to the boss's neck.

The boss was so frightened that he immediately knelt down in front of Lin Yaoxie.

"Great hero, spare me! Great hero, spare me! I was so rude earlier. Take all those medicines, please take them all, please don't kill me!" the shopkeeper cried.

Lin Yaoxie had a terrible headache at the moment, and Ling Yue's image suddenly appeared in Lin Yaoxie's mind.

"Yes, I need to get medicine to save Ling Yue." A voice rang in Lin Yaoxie's mind.

Lin Yaoxie gradually calmed down.

He glanced at the boss, then asked coldly, "I told you before to lower the price of the medicine to a normal level. What's your opinion?"

"That's easy, I'll lower the price right away, right away," the boss said hurriedly.

Lin Yaoxie sheathed his sword and then picked up the medicine.
