Only I Have the Law: A Realistic Cultivation Game
Chapter 4 Something's Gone Wrong!
How can we disrupt this "heretical gathering"?
Xu Zhiyi stood on the open-air balcony, pondering this question seriously.
Charging down to argue with them is definitely not going to work.
If they really got into an argument, his fighting ability might not even be as good as the landlord who had been a teacher all his life.
Moreover, the other side not only had a large number of people, but each of them was also a veteran of countless battles.
Therefore, we need to find another way.
Xu Zhiyi narrowed her eyes, her gaze falling on the elderly men and women in front of her.
There stood a high-powered speaker, about half a person's height, with wheels and a pull-out handle. It was shiny black and covered with a bunch of buttons and knobs, looking very professional.
That loud, rousing music that disturbs one's peace originates from this.
A vague plan took shape in his mind.
He retreated back into the house, went downstairs to the kitchen, rummaged through the refrigerator for an ice cube tray, and gently tapped it. Several transparent ice cubes, each about a centimeter square, fell into his palm, icy cold.
Xu Zhiyi returned to the balcony with the ice.
The music below was playing loudly and energetically, both rustic and upbeat, and the elderly folks were dancing with great enthusiasm.
The landlord had stepped aside but did not leave, seemingly intending to argue with them again.
Xu Zhiyi took out his slingshot.
Although this slingshot is specifically designed for shooting steel balls, it can be used to launch ice blocks if they are hard enough.
The reason for choosing ice is that steel balls can easily injure people and leave traces, which may lead others to trace them back to you.
There are fewer concerns with ice cubes.
Upon impact, it essentially shatters into dust. Plus, with the hot weather, it melts away completely in no time, leaving no trace.
He selected the most regular-shaped ice cube and carefully placed it in his leather pocket.
With a slight exertion of the right hand, the rubber band tightened instantly.
His target wasn't the speaker itself, but rather the tiny power switch on its back, near the bottom and touching the ground—about the size of a little finger joint.
The distance from the balcony to the plaza below is approximately forty meters.
In the past, he wouldn't have even dared to dream of shooting such a small target from forty meters away!
It's so blurry you can't even see it clearly!
But since the attribute was added last night, his senses have become exceptionally clear. He can see things clearly and has complete confidence.
Confidence stems from strength!
Once he had his sights set, he released his fingers without hesitation.
"Whoosh—"
The ice shard shot out, leaving a barely perceptible transparent trail in the air, precisely striking the upturned end of the power switch, instantly shattering into a shower of tiny ice crystals that scattered in all directions.
"Snapped!"
With a soft, crisp sound, the cheesy dance music came to an abrupt end.
The music stopped.
The elderly people in the square also stopped what they were doing.
The lead dancer, a plump middle-aged woman, looked at the speaker with a bewildered expression.
"What happened? Why is it so quiet?"
She shouted and quickly walked to the speaker, bending down to check it.
Other elderly people also gathered around, discussing the matter.
"Is the power out?"
"This is weird! Everything was fine just now!"
"Could it be that the morning dew caused a short circuit?"
"Quiet down, everyone. Let Old Wang take a look. He's the one who bought this speaker."
A thin, elderly man wearing a baseball cap was led to the speaker. He pressed a few buttons, patted the speaker casing, and after a while, he finally figured out the problem.
"Why was the switch turned off?"
As Old Wang spoke, he reached out and pressed the switch.
"Huh, why is there water on this switch?"
Old Wang looked puzzled.
However, as soon as the power indicator light came on and the speaker resumed working, playing that corny dance music, he didn't pay any attention to it.
"Continue, continue."
The plump woman quickly organized everyone to return to their seats and start dancing to the music again.
At that moment, the second ice bullet arrived.
This time, Xu Zhiyi targeted the function buttons on the side of the speaker.
That speaker is very versatile. It not only has common playback modes such as Bluetooth, AUX, and USB flash drive, but you can also plug in a microphone to sing karaoke or switch to FM mode to listen to the radio.
Xu Zhiyi is targeting the FM mode.
"Clatter".
A crisp sound.
The music that had just started stopped abruptly again, followed by a piercing static noise coming from the speakers.
"Oh no! This is really bad!"
An old man called out.
"What's going on?! I just bought it not long ago!!"
The plump woman was furious and pounded on the speaker's casing.
Old Wang leaned closer, a little worried. "Don't worry, don't worry, let me see... Strange, why did it turn into a broadcast? Who was standing here just now? Someone must have pressed the broadcast button!"
"Bullshit! It's just that the speakers you bought are no good!"
The plump woman cursed in annoyance.
She was leading the dance at the very front, and she was the closest to the speaker. If someone were to press the switch, how could she not see it?
Old Wang fell silent.
He switched back to USB playback mode, and the cheesy dance music started playing again.
This time he didn't leave; he stayed by the speaker.
He wanted to see what was going on!
Xu Zhiyi merely curled the corners of his mouth slightly upon seeing this, and while the other party turned to look at the fat woman, he decisively fired the third ice bullet.
"Clatter!"
The music stopped abruptly once again.
"Why did the switch trip again?" Old Wang circled the speaker, his face full of doubt. "Nobody's touched it! This is really weird!"
The repeated interruptions finally made the plump woman lose her patience.
"Alright, alright! No more jumping today! Old Wang, where did you find this crappy speaker? It's not even as durable as the old one. You'd better take it to get it repaired! Don't let it cause trouble again tomorrow!"
After saying that, she turned and left first.
The remaining elderly people also began to leave reluctantly, muttering things like "disappointing" and "I'll have to get a better speaker tomorrow."
In less than five minutes, the once bustling square became deserted, leaving only Old Wang staring at the water stains on the ground next to the speaker, his face full of doubt.
After a while, he looked up at the sky.
"It's not raining..."
The world has returned to peace.

When she received the notification, Xu Zhiyi had already returned to the house.
He picked up the schoolbag on the table and, sure enough, found a new silver ingot inside.
While the price of silver is high now, I'll sell it as soon as I wake up!
