Chapter 43 The True Culprit Behind the Scenes

  As soon as Wu Rui came out of the Goose City International Hotel, he immediately reflected on himself. He was too angry and had lightly believed the words of that rustic-looking man, resulting in him beating up the innocent Wang Feng'an in a fit of rage, only to find out later that he had wronged him.

  Young and arrogant, although already a doctor and a golden elixir cultivator, after all, he had just started his journey and was inevitably lacking in interpersonal skills. Some things can't be cultivated, only experienced, isn't this one of the purposes of the old man's request for him to go out and gain experience?

  Wu Rui's face twisted into a bitter smile, but then his expression turned gloomy. That bastard actually dared to play him, he was really thick-skinned!

  Xu Lao Shi received an order from his superior early this morning to stir up trouble at the central market. The order left him perplexed, but he carried it out anyway and successfully incited the villagers' anger. However, what shocked him was that the target of this operation seemed to be quite powerful, so after being called once, Xu Lao Shi wisely chose not to make another sound.

  However, what almost scared him to pee was that his own instinctive caution had finally been followed by the target, and he had even been poked in the mute hole. Fortunately, he was quick-witted, plus there was information on this aspect in the materials, plus a honest and innocent face was also easy to deceive people, so he was eventually fooled past.

  "He's a dangerous character, next time I see him, I'll turn around and leave!" Xu Old Honest muttered to himself.

  "You don't have to wait any longer, you have the chance now!" Wu Rui had appeared in front of him at some point, with a smiling expression.

  "My goodness!" Xu Lao Shi was startled and his legs went soft, almost thinking he had seen a ghost. He turned around and ran away immediately, not even daring to say another word.

  "Hehe!" Wu Rui chuckled and picked up a brick from the ground, throwing it at his butt from afar.

  Bang!

  "Ah yo yo......" Xu Lao Shi was smashed to the ground, rubbing his sore butt and crying out in pain.

  But what made Wu Rui annoyed was that there happened to be a passerby nearby, who saw Wu Rui hitting an honest farmer with a brick and immediately took justice into his own hands: "How can you hit people like this? Leave quickly, or I'll call the police right away!"

  Enthusiastic citizens! Mr. Xu was moved to tears.

  But before he could ask for help, Wu Rui had already rushed up behind him and kicked his neck, then angrily said to the enthusiastic citizen: "Uncle, you don't know, this bastard looks honest but is actually a pervert! A sex maniac! If I hadn't happened to pass by, he almost molested a little girl under ten years old! Beast! Human trash!"

  While scolding, Wu Rui also kicked Xu Laishi twice with hatred.

  Xu Laishi really wanted to explain that he was innocent, but his mouth was sealed again, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't utter a single word, getting so anxious that sweat dripped from his forehead.

  "Ah……" The enthusiastic citizen was shocked by the words, and at first, he didn't quite believe it. After all, Old Xu looked really honest, but seeing him looking "guilty" on the ground and also "embarrassed" to defend himself, he finally believed a bit. In anger and embarrassment, he said: "Sorry, Little Daoist, I misunderstood you earlier. This kind of person with a human face and an animal heart should be beaten!"

  "Great Uncle is right!" Wu Rui suddenly nodded, and at the same time gave Xu Lao Shi another kick on the ground.

  "That... the little rascal, just teach him a lesson and he'll be fine, whatever you do, don't take his life, I didn't see anything!" With that, the kind-hearted citizen turned around and left.

  Mr. Xu cried, especially when he saw the enthusiastic citizens leaving in anger, his heart was filled with despair. He actually wanted to say: I didn't molest the little girl! Unfortunately, his throat was blocked and he couldn't speak.

  "Haha!" Wu Rui laughed happily, but thinking that this bastard had fooled himself so badly, he angrily kicked him a few more times before saying to him: "You'd better behave yourself, or you'll be in for a world of trouble!"

  Hei Xi nodded honestly and diligently, then Wu Rui kicked his neck heavily.

  "Ouch!!!!!" Xu Lao Shi was in so much pain that tears were welling up, he had been tortured by Wu Rui quite severely, but what comforted him was that at least now he could make a sound.

  "Speak! Who exactly told you to provoke the villagers' anger?" Wu Rui looked down at Xu Lao Shi and asked.

  "Didn't I already say so? It was Wang Gongzi who told me to do this!" Xulao Shi cried out in grievance.

  But this time, Wu Rui didn't believe him again. Seeing that he was still stubborn, she coldly smiled and a silver needle suddenly appeared in her hand, which directly pierced into Xu Lao Shi's heart. When she pulled it out, she also casually pressed his mute acupoint.

  "...the agony of being pierced by five needles, everyone has already experienced it more than once. This time, although Xu was only pierced by one needle, it was even more painful because the mute point was pressed, and the suppressed pain could not be released through sound. Just imagining it makes one's scalp feel numb."

  After a few minutes, Xu Laishi finally collapsed on the ground, covered in sweat, and even if Wu Rui kicked him with her foot, he didn't move at all.

  He casually untied his gag, and Wu Rui expressionlessly said: "Speak, who exactly made you do this."

  Wu Rui added another sentence: "If you don't want to experience that kind of suffering again, it's best if you tell the truth as it is."

  Upon hearing this, Xu's body indeed shuddered with a chill, and he hastily opened his mouth to say: "I am a member of the Mountain Dragon Gang, I received a notification early this morning and came to bother you, please let me go!"

  "Shan Long Gang?" Wu Rui's eyebrows rose, and a sudden realization dawned on him. In E City, apart from offending Wang Da Gongzi, he had only offended Shan Long Gang. It was possible that it was because of Peng Long or Peng Jing, but also possible that it was because he had ruined their plans for Yang Xuan.

  The real culprit finally surfaced.

  Wu Rui asked again with an expressionless face: "Who gave you the order?"

  "It's Master Tang Ang!" Xulao Shi was truly honest this time.

  "Huh?" Wu Rui's eyebrows furrowed slightly at the unfamiliar name, and then he asked again, "Do you know why the Shanlong Gang wants to poison and frame me?"

  "I really don't know, I just received a confusing order." Xu Lao Shi hastily shook his head.

  Since he couldn't get any important information out of him, Wu Rui could only decide to follow the trail and instructed Xu Laoshi: "Take me to see your master An Ge!"

  "This..." Xu Lao Shi was suddenly in a difficult position, because he knew that once he brought Wu Rui back, he would inevitably be punished.

  "Actually, you have no choice now!" Wu Rui suddenly added.

  "...". Xu Lao Shi heard this and couldn't help but shrug his head. He was worried about being punished, but he feared the young man in front of him even more, who seemed like a devil. As Wu Rui said, he had no choice now, so he could only nervously get up from the ground, wipe the sweat with his sleeve, and then honestly take Wu Rui to find Tang Zhu An Ge.
