Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world

#28 - Reap what you sow

Taiyang City.

Lu Tianxing galloped all the way and finally arrived in the city.

Just as he reached the city gate, Lu Tianxing saw a large number of people pouring into the city.

These people looked anxious, as if they were afraid of not being able to enter the city if they were late.

Because the people were too excited, the officers and soldiers maintaining order at the city gate were squeezed aside.

Out of curiosity, Lu Tianxing stopped a person and asked:

"Old man, may I ask what you are going to do?"

The passerby replied:

"I heard that the Great Virtuous Teacher of the Taiping Dao is being held in the county government prison. We are all going to the yamen to petition, hoping that the county magistrate will release the Great Virtuous Teacher."

"If the Great Virtuous Teacher is really released, we will be able to receive his treatment as soon as possible."

Lu Tianxing was very surprised when he heard this.

He didn't expect that the demon man would still have such great appeal even after being arrested.

He quickly asked:

"Didn't the yamen distribute good medicine that can cure diseases to you?"

The passerby gave Lu Tianxing a blank look, as if looking at an idiot:

"If there was a good medicine to cure diseases, why would we rush here from such a long distance?"

"Let me tell you, not only does Taiyang County not have medicine to cure the epidemic, but even the nearby counties don't have it."

"Many people from neighboring counties are rushing here too."

After the passerby finished speaking, he ignored Lu Tianxing and quickly headed towards the city.

Lu Tianxing stood there for a long time, and finally led his horse into the city.

After entering the city, he did not go to the yamen immediately, but went to the Xu family.

As one of the two main leaders who betrayed the Taiping Dao, he now only wanted to find the other leader, Xu Gui, to discuss things.

Soon, he arrived at the Xu family.

As soon as Lu Tianxing entered the Xu family's courtyard, he heard a burst of noise.

In the bedroom, Mrs. Xu was scolding Xu Gui angrily:

"I'm telling you, if anything happens to our children, I won't live either, and you won't have a good time!"

"The children's condition had already improved after drinking the talisman water, but were you possessed by a ghost? You actually wanted us to drink the medicine you brought back."

"Now look, the children's condition is getting worse every day, and your youngest son is unconscious!"

"Hurry up and find a way to get some talisman water back, otherwise don't come home again!"

Afterwards, the bedroom door opened.

Xu Gui was kicked out of the room by his wife.

"Bang!"

The bedroom door slammed shut.

Lu Tianxing hurried to meet him, only to see that Xu Gui's face already had several scratches from fingernails.

Today was obviously not a good day to visit.

But Lu Tianxing couldn't care so much anymore, he quickly asked:

"Boss Xu, those medicines we received back from the yamen…"

Xu Gui raised his head, he opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything, only a long sigh.

This made Lu Tianxing's heart tighten. It seemed that Xu Gui also realized that there was a problem with the medicine.

"Let's go to the government to ask," Lu Tianxing suggested.

Xu Gui frowned and nodded in a daze.

So the two of them planned to leave the Xu family together.

But who knew.

As soon as they arrived at the gate, they were blocked by a group of people.

This group of people held sticks, and they were not kind.

The strong man at the head grabbed Xu Gui's collar:

"Xu Gui! You damned profiteer!"

Sure enough, the people behind shouted:

"Dog merchant, I was cheated out of two taels of gold to buy medicine! But my wife still hasn't improved at all. You dare to cheat even this kind of life-saving money!"

"To buy medicine to treat my brother, I spent all my money. You are really a beast!"

"Refund! Refund! Refund!"

… …

The crowd was emotional.

Many people even raised their fists and picked up sticks, hitting Xu Gui hard.

Xu Gui was beaten and scurried around, hurriedly fleeing towards the house.

Lu Tianxing originally wanted to persuade them, but who knew that the crowd regarded him as being in the same group as Xu Gui, so they also greeted him with blows.

This caused Lu Tianxing to scream repeatedly:

"I didn't sell medicine! Don't hit me!"

"Ouch! You've hit the wrong person!"

However, the crowd was already overwhelmed by anger at this time, how could they listen to his words?

Fists still fell like raindrops.

Lu Tianxing couldn't resist, so he could only learn from Xu Gui and flee desperately.

… …

After a long while.

The crowd who came to ask for a refund finally got the money for buying the medicine from Xu Gui.

Some people even received a batch of compensation.

This made their anger subside slightly, and they left one after another.

But Lu Tianxing and Xu Gui were miserable.

They sat on the ground with bruised noses and swollen faces, and even the clothes on their bodies were torn.

The injuries from being beaten made the two of them groan repeatedly.

Lu Tianxing felt like crying without tears. He was innocently implicated and beaten up.

It was a great injustice!

"I've been harmed miserably by you!"

He complained angrily to Xu Gui.

Xu Gui's eyes were empty.

The money was gone…

In the past few days, he had made a fortune by selling medicine, realizing overnight wealth.

But who could have imagined.

This unexpected wealth was just a fleeting dream, and in the end, it was all an illusion.

Now the wealth was lost like this.

He even lost a lot of money in compensation.

He had no choice but to refund the money, otherwise he would really have been beaten to death today.

But this beating also gradually awakened him.

"Go!"

"Let's go to the yamen and ask Master Zhang clearly!"

"This is the medicine he gave us, he has to be responsible!"

Xu Gui suddenly stood up and strode towards the outside.

Seeing this, Lu Tianxing couldn't care about his injuries and could only follow hastily.

The two followed the street and finally arrived at the yamen.

But now the gate of the yamen was already crowded with people.

These were all people petitioning.

They gathered together to petition the yamen, hoping to release the Great Virtuous Teacher.

Because there were too many people, even the city defense army was transferred over.

These city defense troops had just dispersed the people, but after a while, the people gathered around again.

This made the city defense troops even more irritable, and they became more violent when dispersing them.

The people were also angered by the beatings, which led to constant conflicts between them and the city defense troops.

If Lu Tianxing and the two had seen such a situation before, they would inevitably have ridiculed it with sarcasm.

But at this moment, they had no leisure to watch the excitement.

The two squeezed to the front and ran towards the gate of the county yamen, shouting to the yamen servants guarding the gate:

"We want to see Master Zhang!"

"We have an agreement with Master Zhang, quickly call—"

Before the two could finish shouting, they were rudely pushed out by the yamen servants.

Lu Tianxing and Xu Gui hurriedly explained:

"We have been to the yamen with Master Zhang before, you should recognize us."

"We have important matters to discuss with Master Zhang, let us in quickly, otherwise you will not be able to bear the responsibility if you delay things!"

However, those yamen servants ignored the two people's threats at all.

The yamen servant scolded angrily:

"Get the hell out of here!"

"Master Zhang has already ordered that you two guys are not allowed to enter the county yamen again, get out of here!"

Lu Tianxing and Xu Gui still wanted to say something.

But the yamen servants didn't allow them to explain, and waved the water and fire sticks in their hands, about to smash them hard.

This caused the two to be beaten again, and they could only flee again.

After escaping far away, the two stopped to rest in shock.

"What should we do now?" Lu Tianxing said helplessly.

He really didn't expect that he couldn't even see Master Zhang.

This made it impossible for him to explain to the villagers of Juniu Township.

Xu Gui gritted his teeth and said angrily:
