Chapter 28 Lin Family's Crisis; Encounter with Antagonist's Fate!



Since they parted at the entrance of the government office that day, several months had passed in the blink of an eye. He didn\'t expect him to end up in such a plight!

"This doesn\'t make sense. With the business dealings my wife and his siblings did before the New Year, it should be enough for a living. How could they be in such a sorry state?"

Gu Lan was puzzled. He slowly got up, instructed Old Yang to continue drinking, and went over to take a look.

At this moment, urged by the shop assistant, Lin Lu hadn\'t left yet. Instead, he walked over with some hesitation and whispered a few words. It seemed to be something embarrassing, as he spoke hesitantly.

However, after hearing what Lin Lu said, the shop assistant\'s face immediately turned unsightly, and he shouted directly, "Lin, this is a tavern, not a temple! Go away, beg for alms somewhere else. We don\'t have money for you, let alone your bottomless pit of a family!"

The store assistant slung the rag over his shoulder, not even looking at Lin Lu, and turned back with a cold snort.

After being ridiculed, Lin Lu didn\'t get angry. His slender figure stood on the street for a long time. He sighed slowly, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes, and he continued walking along the street towards the distance.

However, after hearing the shop assistant\'s words, several vendors around began to discuss.

"Who is this person? He looks quite familiar."

"He is from Lin family. He has been begging along the street these days. The kind-hearted people have helped him as much as they can, but who let his family have a bottomless pit?"

"What does \'bottomless pit\' mean?"

"Haven\'t you heard? His sister contracted a strange illness two months ago. This young master Lin sold all his family\'s property to treat his sister..."

"Oh, that\'s tough! So, Master Lin is still a person with deep feelings and righteousness!"

"I\'ve seen the girl. She\'s a pretty tea girl. It\'s a pity..."

"They say that he went to do labor a few days ago, but the boss refused to hire him at all. Helpless, he could only beg for alms!"

Gu Lan\'s perception was sharp, and he could clearly hear these conversations.

So, it turned out that his sister\'s illness led to a drastic change in their family\'s situation...

Looking at the lonely figure, Gu Lan felt a strange sense of regret in his heart. Although their relationship was not deep, he remembered what his wife had said. This brother and sister had a difficult background, but they were very kind in their interactions with others.

Maintaining a pure heart in such a miserable situation was not easy.

"Shop assistant, please call that Lin brother back."

Gu Lan instructed.

When he said this, many customers in the tavern looked over, all curious about who would want to associate with that family with a bottomless pit!

"Hehe!"

The shop assistant looked at Gu Lan with a suspicious tone and said, "This guest, it seems like you haven\'t paid yet, and you\'re thinking of treating someone?"

"Your old man next to you has had quite a bit to drink. I think you should settle the bill first before talking..."

Both being minor characters, this shop assistant was obviously not very likable.

Gu Lan frowned slightly, not waiting for him to finish. He reached into his chest and directly placed a gold ingot on the table!

Thudding!

The shop assistant\'s eyes widened! A considerable amount of gold, at least five taels, shimmered brightly, catching the attention of those around, leaving them momentarily stunned. It turned out this was a wealthy young man with few attendants!

"Is it enough?" Gu Lan asked indifferently. When dealing with minor characters like this, there was no need for special means; using money to solve the problem was the best choice!

"Enough! More than enough, sir!" The shop assistant, who was unfriendly just a moment ago, suddenly wore a smile that resembled ripples in a muddy pool, causing wrinkles to appear on his face.

"I\'ll go get him for you. Please wait a moment, sir!" The shop assistant nodded and bowed.

After he left, Gu Lan leaned quietly against the door. A customer eating nearby looked at him and kindly advised, "Young sir, I advise you not to help that Mr. Lin."

Gu Lan didn\'t say anything and just looked at him.

"I\'m not deceiving you... It\'s not that Mr. Lin is a bad person, but his fate, sigh!"

"His sister contracted an unusual illness that requires burning money. There\'s no solution!"

Hearing this, Gu Lan became interested, "How do you know?"

"I\'m the local doctor here. I\'ve seen her... For her illness, she needs to consume a Soul Spirit Grass every day, which is not cheap. Even if you spend several thousand taels of silver, it might not cure her!"

The doctor looked at the shop assistant, who was bringing Lin Lu over, arched his hand towards Gu Lan, and stopped talking.

So, it was indeed a strange illness...

Because of the knowledge from transporting medical texts like Treatise On Febrile And Miscellaneous Diseases, Gu Lan now possessed a high level of true medical knowledge in his memory.

However, he still didn\'t know which illness required the use of Soul Spirit Grass to prolong life. After all, Soul Spirit Grass belonged to the category of cold spirit medicine...

While contemplating, the sound of urgent horse hooves approached. From the direction of the city gate, two horses galloped side by side as if they were crossing through the bustling street.

One was a young scholar dressed in Confucian attire, handsome in appearance. Next to him was an old man in a black robe, whose face couldn\'t be clearly seen.

It seemed like the young master of a big family rushing to take the autumn exam.

"Who is this young master, riding so fast in the city? Isn\'t he afraid of hurting someone?"

"I don\'t know, but he shouldn\'t be from our Langzhou. I\'ve never seen him before..."

After a glance, the crowd lowered their heads and discussed in hushed voices.

Gu Lan\'s gaze shifted.

At this moment, the two horses had already galloped past and passed by the front of this tavern.

Gu Lan looked at the old man in the black robe, and his eyes slightly chilled!

Unexpectedly, it was the King Realm...

There were quite a few King Realm cultivators in the Great Jing, but each of them was a prominent figure with a distinguished background.

Why didn\'t he remember that there was such a person in Langzhou? Moreover, the black-robed old man seemed to be standing a foot behind the young scholar, apparently the servant of the other party...

Which young master of a prestigious family would use a King Realm expert as a servant?

Gu Lan glanced at the young scholar curiously. With a two-finger salute and a sweep of his eyes, a clear light emerged.

Near-Perfected Immortal Grade: Qi-Insighting Technique!

Gu Lan\'s Qi-Insighting Technique just unfolded, revealed that the Fate of the two was both black!

My goodness, this meant that they were antagonists in the original world!

While appearances may be deceiving, it seems that there are some things that truly exist in the world...

Gu Lan\'s heart stirred, and the clear light in his eyes continued.

However!

Before he could look into the detailed fate of the two, an unexpected incident occurred where they were passing by!

"You filthy beggar, get out of the way!"

Only hearing the black-robed old man\'s low cry, a black whip was swung down, directly lashing onto a frail figure!

It was Lin Lu, who had just been called back by the shop assistant!

At this moment, the shop assistant was also beside him, jumping away in fear, afraid of being affected!

Lin Lu was struck to the ground by the whip, leaving a blood-red mark on his already tattered clothes!

"What the hell!"

"Which family\'s person is this, committing such violence in broad daylight? Aren\'t they afraid of someone reporting to the authorities?"

"..."

Witnessing the maltreatment of a pitiable person, passersby couldn\'t bear it in their hearts.

However, the two individuals seemed to have not heard the accusations from the crowd. They didn\'t even bother paying attention to the incident, continuing to move forward without stopping.

In the presence of an Immortal Realm cultivator, ordinary people were indeed like ants... What a disgusting world this original setting portrayed!

Gu Lan had no intention of chasing after those two. Springing away from the door, he walked a few steps to Lin Lu\'s side and helped him up.

"Brother Lin, are you alright?"

Gu Lan\'s brows furrowed as he observed Lin Lu\'s condition.

Any ordinary person struck by a whip from an Emperor Realm expert would probably be on the verge of death, let alone Lin Lu, who was already weak.
