Chapter 1152: Unable to Cover Up (Two Chapters in One)
The sun was setting, and the gorgeous sunset dyed the sky red, which looked very beautiful.
In the quiet bookstore, Lin Li came to the cashier with a brand new illustration of exotic beasts.
After paying, he came out of the bookstore.
Lin Li stayed in the bookstore all afternoon and obtained a lot of useful information.
Among them, the most valuable to him was the illustration of exotic beasts. The illustration of exotic beasts in Shuanghe City was slightly different from that in Dongwu City. It recorded several exotic beasts that Lin Li had never seen.
After Lin Li came out of the bookstore, he put the exotic beast illustration he bought into the mysterious island.
He looked up at the setting sun in the sky and prepared to call a carriage to go home.
Walking along the street, he passed the alley where he had encountered the robber before.
He found that the alley had returned to normal, and now people walked into the alley from time to time.
It seems that after I left, the two people were taken away... Lin Li guessed in his heart, and then walked towards a big tree in the distance.
There was an empty carriage parked under the tree, and the driver was drinking water.
He saw Lin Li coming over and immediately covered the kettle.
"Master, I want to go..." After Lin Li arrived at the place, he told the driver an address, and then got on the carriage after negotiating the price.
"Go."
The driver swung the reins, and the tall black horse immediately took steps and gradually accelerated.
As the carriage drove on the road, Lin Li looked at the street scene flashing outside the window, thinking about the contents of the exotic beast illustrations he had just read.
There are many kinds of exotic beasts in the Shuanghe City area, and their ferocity is even higher than that of Dongwu City.
The caravans that came here tried their best to avoid places where exotic beasts often appeared.
In fact, it is safer to go by water than by land, but the cost is more expensive, so many caravans will take the risk of going by land for profit.
Unconsciously, the carriage passed through several streets, and then a noisy sound came into the carriage.
"Whoa."
The driver pulled the reins to stop the carriage. Lin Li was brought back to his senses by the sudden brake, and then looked at the place where the noise came from in front of him.
Two groups of people were fighting, and the shouts and screams shook the earth.
It was unimaginable that such a thing happened in broad daylight.
Of course, this unimaginable thing was for Lin Li. The residents of Shuanghe City had seen a lot, so they were not surprised.
When encountering these people fighting, ordinary people were very skilled in staying away from the place where the fighting broke out.
The driver was in a big headache. He originally wanted to take a shortcut to reach the destination, but he encountered such a thing.
Now it takes more time to change direction.
"Stop the carriage in front." A slightly injured strong man shouted.
"Eh?!!!" The driver's face suddenly became solemn when he heard this.
Ordinary people don't want to get involved with members of these gangs, but the other party has already spoken. If they don't stop, they will definitely be hated.
For his own safety, the driver didn't dare to leave directly, and stayed where he was and waited for the other party to arrive.
"I have some wounded here, and I need you to take them to the clinic. Take the fees." The strong man said as he took out a purse from his arms.
"My dear, I already have a guest." The driver said hurriedly.
He wanted to refuse the other party with this, but the strong man didn't care about his words at all.
"Let your guest change to another carriage."
"This..." The driver's palms were sweating nervously. If he was attacked on the road while transporting wounded people to the gang, he was just an ordinary person and it would be difficult to escape.
"Why, you don't want to?" The strong man saw the driver hesitate, and his face suddenly became gloomy.
"No, that's not what I mean." The driver waved his hands quickly, and the strong man's face was gloomy, which put a lot of pressure on him.
"Do things for our Qinghe Gang well, and there will be another reward after the work is done... If you don't give me this face now, you should know what the consequences will be." The strong man threatened.
"Yes, yes, I will do as you say." The driver was threatened and frightened.
Ordinary people can only accept the gang members, and there is no better choice.
Seeing that the matter was about to be done, the strong man was ready to ask someone to carry the wounded over.
However, at this moment, a voice came from the carriage.
"You made a decision without my consent. Isn't it a bit rude?"
The driver looked at the guest in surprise. He didn't expect that this young man would dare to contradict him. This was the first time he had seen such a brave young man.
"What did you say?" The strong man glared at him, his eyes as big as copper bells.
Lin Li lifted the curtain, jumped off the car, looked at the other party expressionlessly, and said to himself, "Do I have a conflict with the Qinghe Gang? How can I meet them here?"
The strong man looked at the young Lin Li in front of him, and he said viciously with a fierce aura on his body.
"I have requisitioned this carriage, don't be ungrateful."
The driver wanted to persuade Lin Li not to conflict with the other party, but before he could speak, Lin Li started to sarcastically.
"Who do you think you are? You just requisition it. Do you really take yourself seriously?"
"..." The driver was stunned, his eyes full of shock.
The strong man clenched his fists. This was not the first time he had requisitioned a carriage.
In the past, when fighting for territory, he often requisitioned carriages when his companions were injured, and asked the driver to take his companions to the clinic for treatment.
It's not that the requisitioned carriages were not paid. The driver and the passengers never objected.
Now the driver has been persuaded, but the passenger disagrees, and even makes a mockery, which is simply a face-to-face humiliation.
"You are looking for death, aren't you?" the strong man said angrily, the spiritual energy fluctuations on his body violently surging, and a powerful aura erupted from him.
The driver, who was close at hand, felt the powerful aura emanating from the strong man, and he was just an ordinary person and trembled with fear.
Lin Li looked at the other party expressionlessly, and his demeanor did not change at all in the face of the threat.
The strong man was overwhelmed by anger, and seeing that Lin Li had no intention of admitting his mistake, he strode forward, raised his right hand, and slapped Lin Li in the face.
"Pa."
The driver clenched his fists, cold sweat broke out on his palms, and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
The strong man wanted to raise his hand to slap Lin Li, but he was slapped by Lin Li instead.
"You..." The strong man's head buzzed after being slapped.
Lin Li slapped the man again with his backhand, and then waved his hands continuously, slapping the strong man more than a dozen times.
"Sir, calm down!" The driver stepped forward and grabbed Lin Li. It was because of his dissuasion that the strong man was able to escape.
"Get lost."
Lin Li looked at the strong man who fell to the ground with a swollen face and spit out a word.
"Asshole, I will fight you." The strong man got up from the ground and rushed towards Lin Li like crazy.
"Bang."
A dull collision sounded, Lin Li turned sideways and kicked the other's chest.
The strong man flew backwards and fell to the ground dozens of meters away. He collapsed on the ground and did not move, and screamed in pain.
"When his people come, you will be in danger. Go!" The driver persuaded Lin Li.
"What about you?" Lin Li asked.
"I... I have to stay." The driver thought for a while and said.
"Why do you want to stay?"
"It's easy for them to find me. If I leave now, they will come to my door later, and things will be serious."
Lin Li saw the driver's worried expression and had a deeper understanding of the poor public security in Shuanghe City.
"Let's go! His people are coming." The driver urged again.
Lin Li nodded and turned to leave.
A few minutes later, the fighting in front ended, and both sides suffered casualties.
The injured were placed on the side of the road, and the pain on their bodies made the injured scream in pain.
"I asked him to call a carriage, why hasn't he come back yet?" A ferocious middle-aged man asked his subordinates.
"I'll go find Lao He." The subordinate left in a hurry. After a while, he found Lao He, but saw that the other party's situation was not very good.
"Lao He, what's wrong with you, who hurt you like this?"
The strong man lying on the ground was unconscious, and the injuries on his body made him unable to speak normally for a short time.
"What happened here just now?" The Qinghe Gang member with a serious face asked the driver.
The driver told the story again. He just needed to state the facts truthfully. There was no need to exaggerate or conceal.
"Damn it." The Qinghe Gang member learned about the incident and immediately cursed.
Now they are fighting with the Dadao Gang, and it is the time to use people, but such a thing happened, which is equivalent to losing combat power for no reason.
And several similar things have happened today, as if someone is targeting them.
The Qinghe Gang member looked at the driver, his eyes were scrutinizing.
"This has nothing to do with me. I don't know that guest at all." The driver hurriedly explained, trying to prove his innocence.
"I know it has nothing to do with you. Now you go over there and help me send the injured to the clinic."
"Okay, I'll go now."
The driver honestly followed the other party's arrangements and drove the carriage to the designated place.
When he arrived at the place, he saw many seriously injured Qinghe Gang members lying on the ground by the roadside, and he was very surprised.
In the past, when two gangs fought, they had a bottom line and did not dare to go too far, so only a few people were injured.
Nowadays, the fighting did not last long, but in such a short time, the number of injured people increased many times.
It can be seen that the two gangs really wanted to kill each other in this fight.
"Don't stand there stupidly, come and help..."
"Okay."
The driver honestly stepped forward to help and moved the injured to the carriage.
A carriage can't actually transport many injured people, but many people have gone to other places to find carriages, and new carriages are arriving one after another.
After a while, one carriage after another carrying the injured rushed to the nearest clinic.
…………
The sunset from the sun in the sky fell in the yard, the surface of the goldfish pond was sparkling, and occasionally a small goldfish would float to the surface.
The yard was very quiet, with only the occasional wind blowing and the rustling sound of the plants shaking.
In a room in the villa, a graceful figure was lying on the bed, breathing rapidly.
"Huh..."
Qin Muqing covered her chest with her right hand, pressing her heart, her face full of pain.
She was sick again, this time much earlier.
The torture brought by the illness made Qin Muqing sweat a lot, her hair was soaked with sweat and stuck to her skin, and most of her clothes were wet. Her rosy lips were slightly open, and her breathing rhythm kept accelerating.
"Why isn't it over yet?"
"Why did it last so long this time?"
"It hurts so much. If I just faint, will it be less painful?"
Qin Muqing's vision gradually became blurred. She struggled to hold on, hoping to survive this attack.
Outside the villa, a carriage stopped at the gate of the villa.
Lin Li had a conflict with the members of the Qinghe Gang, and after leaving, he called another carriage.
At this moment, he returned to the door of his home. After getting off the car, he paid the fare, and then raised his right hand, and a bunch of keys appeared in his hand instantly.
"Which key is it?" There are many door keys in the house, and Lin Li has not used them much, so now he wants to open the big iron door, so he can only try one by one.
"Huh?"
After trying several keys, the door in front of him still did not open. At this time, Lin Li suddenly sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations in the house.
"A thief?"
Because there have been incidents of criminals breaking into the house before, so now Lin Li sensed the spiritual energy fluctuations in the house, and his first reaction was that another criminal broke into the house to rob.
Qin Muqing is the only one at home, don't let anything happen.
Lin Li didn't try the key again, he jumped up and climbed over the wall to enter the house.
Only Lin Li could climb over the wall to go home, if people knew about it, it would become a topic of conversation after dinner.
On the second floor of the villa, Lin Li appeared on the balcony and quietly entered the room.
"Has the psychic fluctuation disappeared?"
At this time, Lin Li stood at the door of a room, and the psychic fluctuation he just sensed disappeared without a trace in the room in front of him.
"Click."
He reached out and grabbed the door handle and twisted it, and the door opened smoothly.
Lin Li pushed the door open and quickly glanced at the room.
There was no one else except a figure lying on the bed.
Lin Li frowned and approached the bed.
When he saw the appearance of the person lying on the bed clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned.
The person lying on the bed was a woman, who was very beautiful, and it was more appropriate to describe her as a beautiful woman.
Moreover, she had a very good figure. Although she was wearing a loose linen dress, it still couldn't hide her curvy figure.
"Who is this woman, and why did she appear in my house?"
"Does the dress look familiar?"
"And why is her figure the same as Qin Muqing's?"
Lin Li suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he seemed to have the answer.
"Her breath is very weak, and the situation looks very bad."
Lin Li went forward to check and further confirmed that the beautiful woman in front of him was in critical condition.
"We must send her to the clinic quickly."
Having made a decision in his mind, he immediately reached out and hugged the other person by the waist.
After a while, Lin Li came out of the house holding the unconscious beautiful woman.
Coincidentally, an empty carriage passed by at this time. He stopped the carriage, got on the carriage, and told the driver the address of a clinic.
