Refining Internal Organs’ Enemy
Xiao Cha charged forward, shouting furiously, “Stop!”
A group of big men in uniform blue short jackets turned around and saw a female patrol officer, all revealing scornful smiles.
Some even had lecherous looks in their eyes as they sized her up and down.
Seeing the attire of these men, Xiao Cha said with grave concern,
“The Yahang people!
You dare to abduct people in broad daylight, unafraid of the law!”
Her words were met with loud laughter from the Yahang folk.
A middle-aged man with narrow eyes and a sinister face stepped through the crowd, hands behind his back, saying,
“Luo Xiaocha, is it?
Long time no see.
So it was you who killed one of my Yahang men?”
Upon seeing this man, Xiao Cha’s face drastically changed, and she stepped back saying,
“Yi Qingchuan!
A martial master like you, why have you come here?”
The reason Xiao Cha’s face fell was that this man had the cultivation of Martial Arts Refining Internal Organs!
And he also harbored intense malice!
At this moment, Xiao Cha felt as if she were being targeted by a ferocious tiger, her breathing tense and uneven.
This was the instinctive fear of a powerful life form, something nobody could avoid.
Even Lu Li felt his heart flutter when this man’s gaze swept over him!
But that was the absurdity of the situation—why would such a skilled individual stoop to kidnapping young children?
Didn’t he think it beneath him?
Yi Qingchuan then produced a document and flashed it, saying,
“The esteemed ones are kind-hearted and can’t stand to see beggars all over the city, so they’ve allowed our Yahang to deal with it.
Your Patrol Bureau better cooperate~”
The document bore the large seal of the Governor Mansion.
Xiao Cha’s face instantly turned pale: “What kind of ‘dealing with’?”
Yi Qingchuan sneered, “Perhaps they’ll be sent to factories to work, who knows.”
Xiao Cha clenched her teeth, intending to try to take Tong Shao away.
However, she was stopped by a majestic voice, “Luo Xiaocha!
What are you doing!”
A young man, also in a patrol uniform but with stars on his shoulders, stepped forward and scolded,
“Who allowed you to cause trouble here!
Get out of the way!”
“Constable Qin…”
“Shut up, you have no say here!”
Constable Qin’s face was full of disgust and impatience.
And as Xiao Cha saw her own superior arrive, she realized today’s matter was not as simple, feeling even more helpless.
She clenched her fists tightly, watching helplessly as Tong Shao was led away by a rope.
Yi Qingchuan had been full of mockery at first, but catching a glimpse of Wanqing standing behind Xiao Cha, he showed a surprised delight and quickly whispered a few words to one of his subordinates.
Lu Li saw all of this unfold.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the group had left, Lu Li turned to the disconsolate Xiao Cha, asking,
“Can a Refining Organ Martial Artist be killed with a gun?”
“You can…
but what are you planning to do!?”
Xiao Cha snapped to her senses, saying,
“Martial Arts Refining, body comparable to a fierce tiger, with the strength of 3000 catties!
Movement so fast it’s unbelievable, they could twist your head off before you can react!”
Lu Li thought to himself: As long as they can’t withstand bullets, just need a powerful enough weapon…”
Then, Xiao Cha said, “You two go home first.
I’ll buy the Calming Incense myself and also probe for information…
I’ve got to get Tong Shao out!”
Lu Li handed her a silver ingot, “Don’t rush to buy the Calming Incense, prioritizing the rescue is more important.
If it can be settled with money, that’s the best.”
With so much money, rescuing a young girl should not be difficult.
Xiao Cha looked at him appreciatively, “Thank you!”
“No need for thanks, get going.”
Xiao Cha nodded and hurried away with her long legs.
Lu Li then led Wanqing towards the medical clinic.
All along the way, wherever there was a dip or a rise in the path, Lu Li would pause and gently remind her to take care, protecting her carefully.
Wanqing suddenly smiled and said, “To have met Young Master Lu, I’m really quite lucky.”
“Mutual feelings, I’m also very happy to have met you.”
By this time, they had reached the entrance of the medical clinic, and Lu Li, supporting Wanqing’s delicate arm, helped her over the threshold and into the courtyard.
“What would you like to eat, Young Master?
I’ll cook for you.”
“Anything is fine, I love everything you make.
Oh, it’s going to get a bit noisy later, please don’t mind it.”
Wanqing smiled gently and headed towards the kitchen.
Lu Li took out his shotgun from the room and went specifically to a corner of the courtyard farther away, firing at a stone lock to test the gun.
The sound of gunfire was like that of a cannon, with a significant recoil, but as it was a pump-action single-shot, it didn’t really matter.
In the courtyard, the sound of gunshots thundered, with lead balls whistling out, turning the stone lock into a wreck.
The shotgun was inherently simple to use, and Lu Li quickly got the hang of it.
After loading the magazine with bullets, Lu Li set the gun aside and started practicing the “White Dragon Whip Skill.”
He trained for most of the day until evening approached, when Xiao Cha finally returned, looking dejected.
From the look on the girl’s face, it was clear that she brought back nothing but bad news.
She first took out two boxes of Calming Incense and said, “The price has gone up again, now it’s 200 silver coins a box.
Buying two boxes attracted some attention, but it can’t be helped, there’s a rumor saying they might limit quantities in the future.”
Lu Li wasn’t too concerned about this and asked, “What about Tong Shao?”
Xiao Cha’s face was tense as she said, “I sent a message through someone, willing to pay 200 silver coins for ransom, but Yahang wouldn’t agree!”
This was more than a few times the usual price, in theory, no one would refuse the money.
Lu Li frowned and asked, “Is it because Yahang has a grudge against us?”
Xiao Cha shook her head with a sigh, “I had someone else handle it, and I never showed my face from the beginning to the end… There’s something strange about this matter.”
She paused for a moment and then continued, “I plan to keep an eye on Yahang, to see where they sell the people, and then go directly to the buyers to ransom them… it’s just, I’ll need to use your money.”
“Feel free to use it, if it’s not enough, I’ll figure something out.”
To Lu Li, money was a minor issue.
Yet… although normally human traffickers wouldn’t damage their “goods,” this time seemed to be an unusual exception.
Meanwhile, at a farm ten miles outside Tianjin City, Yi Qingchuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, next to a table laden with wooden dummies.
He watched a group of gaunt-faced beggar children and said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile,
“See these wooden dummies?
Pick one you like, I’m giving them to you.”
The dummies were defective, some missing arms, others legs, all strangely deformed.
Yet the largest of the beggar children were but eight or nine years old, at an age fond of playing, showing no disdain as they scrambled to grab them.
In no time, they each had their preferred “toy.”
Yi Qingchuan’s smile widened as he said, “Good, you all got one, yes?
Lift them up high for me to see.”
The children all lifted their wooden dummies…
Suddenly, Yi Qingchuan propelled forward, transforming into a dark shadow that swept across the room in an instant.
Amidst the grating sound of bones breaking, the children’s limbs were shattered, leaving them as deformed as the wooden dummies in their hands.
As their pained screams filled the air, several men in blue tunics scrambled to heap praise on him:
“What a powerful Heavenly Mountain Broken Plum Hand!”
“Light as a feather yet heavy as lead, Manager Yi’s skills have reached Mastery!”
Yi Qingchuan selected a piece of white silk to wipe his hands and said,
“Enough talk, more action.
Throw these cripples into the lease to beg from the Westerners, and nurture those with Spiritual potential well.”
