Chapter 251: Ask for a hammer, get a hammer!

~7 min read 1,324 words

Behind this corpulent figure followed three burly bodyguards.

They charged straight ahead, running toward the teahouse.

If Lin Ying'er hadn't pulled Huang Yiyi aside to dodge, both would have been knocked over.

Really impolite, they don't even know to come apologize.

At that moment, a passing bodyguard glanced at Lin Ying'er and said coldly.

Watch your mouth; Boss Qian is not someone you can provoke.

Having said that, he glanced at Lin Yang once more, then followed them inside.

Huang Yiyi looked at the overbearing bodyguard, a little worried, and said.

Yinger, let's just go back.

Everyone here looks so fierce.

Hearing that, Lin Ying'er immediately grabbed Huang Yiyi's hand and said.

What's there to fear? No matter how fierce they are, can they be fiercer than my brother?

Lin Yang heard that and his mouth twitched.

Is that praising myself or insulting myself?

Then, a middle-aged man in a suit hurriedly ran up.

After the middle-aged man ran up, another two also ran up.

This time, Lin Ying'er stopped the tall, thin middle-aged man and asked.

Uncle, I see you all rushing so urgently—is something the matter?

The middle-aged man, upon hearing that, said anxiously.

Today, the Longevity Pill is being sold!

I've heard this Longevity Pill works even better than the Longevity Elixir.

Just smelling it makes one feel refreshed and invigorated!

Little girl, don't block me—today we're selling only ten; if you miss it, you'll have to wait half a year!

Having said that, he hurriedly ran into the teahouse.

Lin Yang perked up upon hearing that.

Could it be that a second cultivator has appeared in the southwest, refining and selling longevity pills?

But such a possibility is minuscule.

After all, cultivators who can refine pills are never short of money.

He thought it over and still decided to go in and have a look.

Come on, let's not linger here—you guys wanted to go in and see, didn't you?

At this moment, the two of them had already been drawn in by the name 'Longevity Pill'.

Upon hearing Lin Yang's words, they immediately nodded and headed into the teahouse.

At that moment, the teahouse was fully packed, every seat taken.

Even so, due to lack of seats, many people were standing.

At that moment, on the makeshift stage, a person wearing a white Tang suit was addressing the crowd.

Today, the first Longevity Pill is up for auction, starting bid: one hundred million, no ceiling.

Lin Yang curiously looked at the so‑called Longevity Pill and couldn't help but be startled.

That so‑called Longevity Pill is actually just an ordinary pill.

If I'm not mistaken, when they formed the pill they mixed in Longevity Elixir.

Moreover, to make it look nice, they coated the outside with food coloring and spices.

This makes the Longevity Pill look good and also smell very fragrant.

Seeing through it, Lin Yang also found it amusing.

The person behind this is nothing short of a swindler.

The pill won't harm anyone; on the contrary, thanks to the Longevity Elixir, it can make one's body feel comfortable.

At that moment, Lin Ying'er looked at the pill on stage and said to Lin Yang.

Brother, why don't you buy a few to take home? Then we can all eat them together and live to a ripe old age!

Lin Yang, hearing that, replied with a smile.

That so‑called Longevity Pill is all show and has no actual longevity‑boosting effect.

Only a fool would buy it.

Ah?

Lin Ying'er, hearing that, looked at Lin Yang with some puzzlement.

Lin Yang was about to explain when a gloomy male voice sounded from behind him.

What do you mean by that? Are you saying we're deceiving people?

Lin Yang turned around and saw a bald man with a big belly standing behind him.

At that moment, the bald, big‑bellied man's face was very unsightly.

He demanded in a low voice: 'If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't let you leave!'

Saying that, he grabbed Lin Yang's hand and started walking toward the stage.

Ladies and gentlemen, let's pause the pill auction for now—we've run into some trouble here.

Despite being dragged onto the stage by the bald man, Lin Yang kept a smile and showed no panic.

At that moment, everyone turned their gaze to the stage, their eyes filled with confusion.

"Zhou Shenxian, what happened? Why did you interrupt the auction?"

The fat man who was called Zhou Shenxian had the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he was quite pleased with this title.

He coughed once and then spoke loudly.

"Just now, in the crowd, I heard this person say that my medicine is fake, merely an appearance."

"Furthermore, only fools would come to buy it; let everyone judge."

As soon as these words were spoken, a wave of cursing immediately erupted.

"A poor bastard who can't afford it dares to call us fools; I think he's just sour grapes because he can't eat the grapes!"

"That's right, a poor bastard who has never seen the world thinks a hundred million is expensive, so he says that."

"Such a person should be arrested and then sentenced!"

"Zhou Shenxian, you need to take care of this matter; just leave it to us!"

Hearing everyone's words, Zhou Fei looked at Lin Yang with great smugness.

"Have you heard what everyone said? Everyone is very dissatisfied with you!"

"If I were to throw you into the crowd now, you'd probably be beaten to death!"

"Now kneel on the ground, apologize to me, then kowtow before everyone, and we'll reluctantly forgive you!"

Lin Yang shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent expression and said.

"It's fake to begin with, why should I apologize?"

"They're just a bunch of people who have been sold out and still help count the money for others—complete idiots!"

Hearing Lin Yang say that, Zhou Fei flew into a rage.

"Even now you're still being stubborn!"

"Since you say mine is fake, why don't you produce some evidence?"

"Just empty talk—what's that supposed to mean?"

Lin Yang heard this, smiled, and walked over to the Longevity Pill.

He picked up a Longevity Pill and placed it before his eyes.

Seeing this, everyone burst into another round of cursing.

Lin Yang gave a hehe smile, moved his fingertips slightly, and stripped away all the pigment.

"This is not a Longevity Pill at all; it's a Ten-Ingredient Great Tonic Pill made from Longevity Elixir."

"I have stripped away the pigment and fragrance; you can come and see."

Zhou Fei, whose deceit was just exposed, saw his complexion slightly change.

He put on a calm facade and said.

"This is all just a smokescreen!"

Lin Yang gave a hehe smile and said to those present.

"Whoever among you has Longevity Elixir can bring out a bottle, then find two patients to test it on, and we'll know!"

Soon, three wealthy men stood up from the crowd.

Two of them had sallow complexions, obviously seriously ill.

One held the Longevity Elixir, and Lin Yang then handed over a Longevity Pill.

"You decide who takes the Longevity Elixir and who takes the Longevity Pill."

As Zhou Fei was about to be exposed, he shouted.

"No, you haven't bought it yet!"

"Zhou Shenxian, we'll pay you afterward."

Then, everyone watched the changes in the two persons after they took it.

One's sallow complexion recovered at a visible speed.

The other merely regained some color.

Now everyone understood.

Seeing everyone's furious gaze, Zhou Fei glared at Lin Yang with anger.

"It's all your fault, you brat!"

Then he let out a loud shout.

"Brother Lu, someone is smashing up the venue!"

No sooner had his words fallen than a figure with vigorous qi and blood rushed onto the stage.

He looked down on everyone with a contemptuous gaze.

"Who is it, daring to smash up the venue of my brother, Mr. Lu?"
