Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

Chapter 33
The north of the town leads to Mount Baitou, and Zhao Lin is almost sure that the short and strong man is sent by Huzi.

The short and strong man was very vigilant, stopping suddenly every time he walked a certain distance, consciously or unconsciously observing whether there was anyone following behind him.

Zhao Lin was not sure about his tracking ability, so he waited for a while, and only started to follow when the other party was about to disappear from sight.

It was noon at this time, and there were not many pedestrians on the road. After passing a village, there were fewer and fewer people around, and finally only Zhao Lin was left alone.

"My friend, what's the matter with you?"

The short and strong man stopped suddenly, stared at Zhao Lin with a bad expression, and put his palm on the waist knife while speaking.

"I do not understand what you're saying."

Zhao Lin's eyes were blank, his tone was full of doubts, but his movements were as fast as lightning. He drew out his ax and slammed it at the short and strong man's head.

The short and strong man didn't expect Zhao Lin to start without saying a word. He was startled and angry. He wanted to draw his sword to resist but it was too late. He immediately hid aside and continued to draw his sword.

Zhao Lin's skill was not what it used to be, he didn't give him a chance to draw his sword at all, he stepped forward and punched the short and strong man in the left rib.

The short and strong man had no choice but to let go of the handle of the knife, raised his hand and punched Zhao Lin.

There was a muffled bang, and the short and strong man flew backwards and hit the trunk of a big tree behind him.

Before he landed, Zhao Lin had already chased after him and kicked him in the waist and eyes.

The short and strong man almost gasped in pain, clenched his teeth to prevent himself from passing out, and suddenly felt his neck tighten, and was grabbed by the collar and dragged into the cornfield beside the road.

Zhao Lin pressed him to the ground, clasped his hands behind his back, and pressed his knees on his neck, not giving him a chance to fight back.

The short and strong man felt a big mountain pressing on his back, and he could hardly breathe, so he couldn't bear the pain and shouted: "Hero, spare your life!"

Zhao Lin said coldly: "I'll ask a question, you answer, if you lie to me, I'll kill you."

The short and strong man said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, ask a question and answer a question."

"Are you a subordinate of the Diamond Mountain Leopard?"

"Yes, the head of my family is the Diamond Mountain Leopard. I don't know what the hero wants to know?"

Zhao Lin said in a deep voice, "Why are you buying bear bile?"

The short and strong man rolled his eyes and said, "Father is sick..."

Zhao Lin pressed down hard on his knees, and the short and strong man immediately changed his words: "The boss wants me to inquire, but I don't know why."

"Is there someone from other medicine halls asking?"

"Yes……"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Lin twisted his neck.

The short and stout man opened his eyes wide, and breathed his last in resignation.

Zhao Lin quickly took out the money bag on his body, opened it, and found that there was an ingot of five taels of official silver and more than three taels of scattered silver, and he couldn't help but smile.

"It's better to rob to get money faster."

As soon as this thought came up, it immediately aroused his vigilance.

"This time it's just a stopgap measure. Besides, the other party is a beard who commits all kinds of crimes. We can't take this as a way to make money."

"Sin, sin..."

Zhao Lin put away the silver and threw the empty purse on the body, but did not clean up the scene, deliberately leaving a "false appearance" of murder.

After doing this, Zhao Lin suddenly thought of a hidden danger.

This is Lisha Town, whoever kills the bandits here, will Diamond Mountain Leopard think that the murderer is someone from Lisha Town or the surrounding area?
"Rabbits don't eat grass by the side of their nests, so they have to find a way to get away with it."

Zhao Lin's brain was running fast, and he immediately thought of a solution to the problem: change to another place and kill another bandit who bought bear bile.

Killing the bandits in different places can not only earn an extra amount of money, but also confuse the mountain leopard, making him confused about the direction.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lin quickly ran to Goujiao Town, thirty miles away.

Goujiao Town is located ten miles northwest of Qinghe County. The reason for choosing this town is because the town is in a mountain depression, and the roads are winding and rugged, making it difficult for vehicles and horses to travel.

It is impossible for the bandits to ride a horse in the past, so there is enough time, otherwise everyone will leave when they rush over.

Zhao Lin's running speed is not fast, but his endurance is amazing. He ran for an hour without slowing down and came to Goujiao Town.

"Doctor, I can't sleep well these few nights, help me find out what's going on?"

Zhao Lin waited for the bandits to come to the door in the medicine hall. In order to deceive others, he found an excuse to ask the doctor in the hall to see him.

He had just inquired about it, but the bear bile buyer hadn't come yet.

"I see that your pulse is stable and strong, and you don't look sick, but what's bothering you recently?"

The doctor took the pulse for a while and asked.

"The doctor is really clever, he hits the mark as soon as he says it." Zhao Lin replied pretendingly.

The doctor nodded, "I'll give you a prescription for peace of mind and peace of mind. Go back and recuperate for two days."

The doctor prescribed the medicine, and Zhao Lin took the medicine at a premium, asked the pharmacy to help decoct the medicine, and waited in the lobby to take the medicine.

After waiting for a while, the waiter brought the decocted medicine. Zhao Lin drank it and looked out the door, thinking: "It's almost dark, why hasn't the beard come yet?"

He was thinking about it when suddenly a figure flashed at the door, and a middle-aged man in a blue robe came in.

Zhao Lin was slightly taken aback. This person had good features and well-dressed clothes. He looked like a scholar at first glance, but when he walked, his legs were bent outwards, making him a bow-legged man.

Not only a bandit, but also a long-standing old horse bandit.

The green-robed man acted cautiously, unlike the short and stout man before who yelled to buy bear bile as soon as he entered the door, he went directly to the counter and asked the shopkeeper in a low voice.

After listening for a long time, Zhao Lin couldn't understand what he was talking about, but the shopkeeper's answer made his intentions clear: "There is only one bear bile in the warehouse, which was collected last summer..."

After hearing this, Zhao Lin drank the medicine in one go, took the rest of the medicine, and walked out of the medicine hall.

As the sky darkened and there were few pedestrians, Zhao Lin followed the same pattern and followed the green robed man out of the town.

The green-robed man quickly sensed that Zhao Lin was following him, and immediately quickened his pace.

Zhao Lin stopped pretending and ran over, took out his ax and struck at his back...

After a while, the green-robed man fell into a pool of blood.

Once born, second time acquainted, this time Zhao Lin was quite calm in his heart.

But to his disappointment, the man in green robe didn't have much money on him, and only less than two taels of silver were found all over his body.

This time Zhao Lin did not leave the body where it was, but dragged it to the river a few miles away and threw it into the river.

The methods of the two murders were different. I don't know what the bandits would think?
After disposing of the corpse, Zhao Lin returned to his original appearance.

It was already late at this time, but considering what happened today was too important, he decided to inform Zhou Paotou and the others.

Zhao Lin took the path to Baiqiao Village, and when he was still a few miles away from the village, he saw the flames all over the sky.

Dozens of masked men on horseback with torches surrounded Baiqiao Village.

"Listen, everyone, come out to me..."
