Chapter 385 The troublemaker
The customers who entered the store seemed to be accustomed to this behavior, and did not show any signs of impatience, nor did they say anything to urge them.
Even Lu Yao, who was busy not far away, and Tao Ran, who was entertaining distinguished guests on the second floor, didn't pay the slightest attention.
However, due to the angle problem and the scanning with his spiritual consciousness, Qin Tian discovered something extremely suspicious.
The reason for this is probably because when the maid was looking for the elixir, she took the opportunity to secretly take out a jade bottle and replaced it with a similar-looking jade bottle of elixir in the display cabinet.
Due to the cover of the wide sleeves and the fact that the beautiful maid's movements were extremely concealed, no one noticed.
Not long after, the maid suddenly paused, grabbed an exquisite jade bottle, and handed it to the waiting customer with a happy face.
When the money was cleared, a strange look suddenly flashed deep in the eyes of the beautiful maid in green, and then she pretended to be nonchalant and started to go to other areas to greet guests.
Seeing this scene, Qin Tian remained calm on the surface and did not make any move to alarm others, but he could not help but frown slightly, and there was a faint feeling of something wrong in his heart.
Perhaps in order to verify his suspicions, Qin Tian took slow steps and went straight to the transparent counter. Then he pretended to buy the elixir and summoned the guide maid named Lan Xiu.
After Lan Xiu, the maid in blue, bowed politely, Qin Tian suddenly said with a troubled expression:
"I want to buy some auxiliary elixirs, but I don't know how to choose them at the moment. I wonder if the girl can do it conveniently and take out a few bottles of elixirs on the counter for me to take a look at?"
As he spoke, Qin Tian stretched out his fingers seemingly casually and pointed out several exquisite jade bottles through the transparent barrier on the counter.
Seeing this situation, the maid Lan Xiu nodded politely with a smile, then quickly took out the restraining talisman, opened the restraint covering the counter, and took out several exquisite jade bottles containing elixirs, and handed them all to Qin Tian.
The latter was not polite after taking it, and waved his hand to open the jade bottle. At the same time, he quietly used his powerful spiritual power to inspect it carefully.
After a full moment, Qin Tian suddenly felt a slight movement in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He just raised his sleeves and waved his robe, and put all the jade bottles on the counter, and said casually:
“If there’s nothing I want, let’s take a look around!”
After saying this, Qin Tian put his hands behind his back again and wandered leisurely in the hall.
With that look, the word "wandering" is simply interpreted vividly!
Seeing this move, even Lan Xiu, a professionally trained maid in green clothes, couldn't help biting her silver teeth secretly. She was secretly angry in her heart, but she could only keep smiling at each other.
Not long after, when Qin Tian was a little bored, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the crowded gate of "Miaodanfang", which was also mixed with exclamations.
After noticing this situation, Qin Tian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and sneered secretly in his heart, and then walked towards the door with a curious face, as if he was ready to watch the fun.
As for the many customers who were originally selecting elixirs in the lobby of the store, they also put down their elixir bottles and quickly gathered towards the door.
On the street outside the gate, I saw two tall Qi Refining Stage monks in yellow robes, working together to support a young man with a black face, slightly closed eyes, and a cultivation level of the ninth level of Qi Refining. He yelled and cursed loudly at "Miaodanfang":
"This black-hearted businessman "Miaodanfang" sells fake detoxifying pills as inferior ones. As a result, my young master failed to detoxify and was attacked by erysipelas. Now the toxicity has deepened and has penetrated into the bone marrow. He is afraid that his life may be in danger!
Dear fellow Taoists, please comment on how the bad behavior of "Miaodanfang" is different from seeking wealth and killing people! "
In their words, the two Qi Refining monks spoke sharply and made no secret of their disparagement towards "Miaodanfang".
Coupled with the indignant looks on the faces of the two of them, as well as the young man with a black face and an angry hair, many customers and pedestrians around him believed it and began to point and talk about "Miaodanfang". stand up.
As a result, under the deliberate guidance of several malicious monks in the crowd, public opinion began to point one-sidedly at the "Miaodanfang". The scene was full of condemnation, and the crowd was extremely angry and lively.
After a while, even the pedestrians on the surrounding streets began to gather quickly towards the "Miaodanfang", obviously watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously.
Maybe they were disturbed by the noise outside the door. Luyao and several guide maids in the shop couldn't help but came out curiously to check.
But when the two Qi Refining Stage monks saw the fiery Luyao, a strange look suddenly flashed in their eyes, and they yelled and cursed without hesitation:
"This woman is the wife of the shopkeeper of "Miaodanfang". She is the one who personally sells my young master's detoxifying pills! It's a pity that my young master is so talented. He is about to build a foundation and has a bright future in the future. However, he is accidentally betrayed by this snake-hearted man. The harm caused by this woman is simply blind to the sky!”
As they spoke, both of them were emotional, lowered their feet and raised their chests, and there were even tears flashing in their eyes, as if they were heartbroken.
As soon as these words came out, and in conjunction with this tearful performance, the surrounding monks couldn't help but turn their heads, looking at Luyao with strange eyes, and there were many disparaging words in the process.
Seeing this situation, Luyao, who was already hot-tempered, couldn't bear this kind of birdiness. She couldn't help but raised her eyebrows and shouted angrily:
"You fart! Stop spewing nonsense. If you dare to speak nonsense again, I will chop you up!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the two Qi Refining Stage monks suddenly sat down on the ground and cried loudly:
"It's outrageous! They're going to kill people! "Miaodanfang" is using its power to bully others and bully us and other Qi Refining monks for their low strength! Could it be that such a huge Qianling City has no laws to speak of? Fellow Taoists, please comment!"
After hearing this, the two of them looked like scoundrels again. Luyao's pretty face turned red with anger, and her chest felt turbulent. She pointed at the two of them tremblingly and was speechless for a long time.
Seeing this scene, the few thoughtful people in the crowd faintly noticed something was wrong.
But the so-called matter was not of their own concern, so no one took the risk of incurring public outrage to stand up and speak for Miaodanfang. Instead, they leisurely watched the excitement.
The dispute that occurred here quickly attracted the attention of the patrolling monks stationed in the city. At that time, a group of monks wearing armor walked quickly towards this place.
