Chapter 1303 - 1301 Cultivation Technique Swindled
Chapter 1303 - 1301 Cultivation Technique Swindled
"Teacher Lin, we’re not too worried about the money being swindled, what we’re worried about is that the cultivation technique has also been swindled. What should we do about that..." Xia Hong felt extremely anxious at this moment. He knew Lin Feng didn’t lack money, so money wasn’t an issue, the issue was that the cultivation technique was swindled away by the other party, and he was really afraid Lin Feng would blame them.
"The cultivation technique was swindled? What’s going on?" Lin Feng hadn’t anticipated such a thing happening, how did even the cultivation technique get swindled?
"After we gave money to those three little girls, we started chatting with them. They said their family was from out of town, and since they couldn’t make a living, they came to Tianhai to beg for food. Later, they were bullied by many people and became so miserable, so I softened and gave them an introductory cultivation technique from the Xia Family. I hoped they could cultivate it and drive away the bad guys and wouldn’t have to beg anymore." When Xia Xiaoxin talked about this, she felt really upset. With Lin Feng and Xia Lalan taking care of her and other kids, they were looked after, but those three girls were really pitiful. If it weren’t for this, she wouldn’t have been deceived.
"And then, how did you find out you were deceived?" By now, Lin Feng roughly understood what had happened, but he wanted to know how these two kids figured it out.
"After the three girls left, I suddenly noticed something was off. Logically, these girls should have bought food and clothes first after getting money, but we saw that they didn’t do that and continued begging. Later, when one girl saw we hadn’t left, she hurriedly gathered the other two and they left in a hurry."
"With this situation, Xia Xiaoxin and I immediately felt something was wrong, so we stealthily followed them. We saw them go to a rather inconspicuous courtyard, where we secretly saw the three girls handing over everything they got from begging to a very fierce-looking man, without daring to keep anything for themselves at all. It was then that I understood, it must be this man controlling these three girls to cheat people out of money and goods..."
Xia Hong narrated everything he saw to Lin Feng. These were all things he personally witnessed. If he hadn’t seen these, he wouldn’t have thought he had been swindled by these three girls. Thinking of this made him extremely depressed, how could he have been so blind at that moment!
"Initially, Brother Xia Hong wanted to beat up that bad man, but I stopped him. Teacher Lin, you told us not to casually harm people in the secular world, so to avoid trouble, I took Brother Xia Hong away and rushed towards the school. But I didn’t expect to receive Uncle Huang’s call before even reaching the school, and then Teacher Lin, you saw everything..."
After listening to the two kids, Lin Feng nodded. Their intentions were good, and that was enough. As for chasing after other things, the effect would be the same. Even if that bad man was beaten, he would definitely hurt those three little girls, so the kids’ decision to leave directly was the right one. With such people, dealing with them cannot solve the problem.
"Alright, I understand. Those introductory cultivation techniques aren’t a big deal. Even if they learn them, it would only be for health and fitness, no need to worry. Let this matter end here." Seeing that the two kids were still worried, Lin Feng smiled and said. But just after saying this, he suddenly thought of something: that the kids had too little contact with people in the secular world, and hadn’t seen its myriad forms, so perhaps he should arrange for them to experience what real life is like.
Thinking of this, he used his divine sense to gather the rest of the kids. The summoned kids were surprised, all eyes were on Lin Feng, wondering why Teacher Lin had gathered them when they still had to go to the Spirit Realm to plant herbs.
"Follow me, I’m taking you to a place." Lin Feng didn’t explain much, simply said this, and then turned and walked outside.
The kids exchanged glances, not understanding Lin Feng’s intentions, but since he was walking outside, they could only follow behind.
Now, Tianhai’s night had become a bit chilly, and pedestrians on the roads were already donning thin jackets. Lin Feng, along with a group of kids, appeared in the eyes of the passersby, drawing constant glances, not knowing what a young man was doing with so many children.
Half an hour later, Lin Feng arrived at a bar called NO1, stopped at the entrance, opened the door, and led the kids inside. It wasn’t yet peak time at the bar, so in the large bar, there were only two or three customers. The staff in the bar, seeing Lin Feng and the kids appear, had a look of confusion in their eyes, wondering what these kids were here for.
"Sir, may I ask what you’re..." One of the waiters couldn’t help but approach Lin Feng with a question, but he only half-completed his sentence, unsure of how to appropriately continue, whether to ask Lin Feng or the kids seemed inappropriate.
"Tell Huangmao to come see me." Lin Feng looked at the waiter and said calmly.
"Huang... Yes!" This waiter, hearing Lin Feng’s words, initially wanted to explode. Brother Huangmao was the boss here, and moreover, he was a figure from the underworld. Nobody ever didn’t give face to Brother Huangmao; visiting the bar always meant rushing eagerly to pay respects to him. When had anyone ever heard of having Brother Huangmao come over!
But before he could voice his protest, he swallowed his words, suddenly realizing that this young man clearly wasn’t ordinary. Being able to call Brother Huangmao directly yet maintain such a natural demeanor wasn’t something ordinary people could do.
Realizing this, he immediately agreed and quickly went to find Brother Huangmao.
Upon hearing his subordinate’s report, Brother Huangmao was also surprised, wondering who would be looking for him. When the waiter explained it was a group of kids and a young man, he finally knew who had arrived—it must be Lin Feng with those kids!
Realizing this, Brother Huangmao couldn’t concern himself with much else, he immediately rushed out straight into the lobby! As soon as he entered the lobby, sure enough, he saw Lin Feng leading the group of kids, and he quickly ran over to Lin Feng. Upon reaching Lin Feng, Huangmao bowed respectfully, instantly baffling the other people in the bar. Brother Huangmao was the boss of the underground world in this area; when had anyone ever seen Brother Huangmao bow to someone else, it was truly unbelievable!
At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but ponder over one question: Just who is this young man before them, to make Brother Huangmao act like this? What exactly is going on?
While everyone was puzzled, Brother Huangmao respectfully said to Lin Feng, "Boss, why did you come here? If there’s something you need, just call me, a word is enough."
Huangmao looked at Lin Feng, genuinely puzzled as to why Lin Feng suddenly brought the kids to him today. He didn’t understand what Lin Feng wanted to do, but no matter what Lin Feng asked of him, he would execute it without hesitation. After all, his life itself was saved by Lin Feng, he was very clear about what he needed to do.
Huangmao didn’t notice that as soon as he spoke, the rest of the people in the bar almost fainted from shock, thinking how could this be possible. How could someone like Brother Huangmao’s boss possibly be this young man who seems like he’s not even twenty? This... This just left them at a loss for words because Brother Huangmao, such an intelligent person, how could he do something so unbelievable, who would respect Brother Huangmao after this?
"Leave these kids to you for a few days. Have them participate in your activities; you understand what I mean." Looking at Huangmao, Lin Feng nodded and casually instructed. This was his plan. When it comes to social experience, Huangmao’s place was the most suitable; all sorts of people from various walks of life could be found there, and in this large melting pot, the kids would surely understand the law of the jungle.
Upon hearing Lin Feng’s instructions, Huangmao immediately responded, "Boss, no problem, leave them to me, rest assured, I won’t let them do anything illegal, and someone will protect them."
To Huangmao, these instructions were just a matter of a word. Though he didn’t understand why Lin Feng wanted the kids to experience this, since Lin Feng had said it, he must follow Lin Feng’s words, and ensure these kids didn’t meet with any incidents!
But Huangmao didn’t expect that just as he finished his words, Lin Feng shook his head and said, "They don’t need protection, do what you normally do. I just want them to experience some things and see the different facets of this world."
"Now I understand, Boss. Your idea is to have them treated as my people, without specifically avoiding anything, you just want them to see the world, right?" Hearing Lin Feng’s clarification, Huangmao immediately responded, feeling if his guessing was correct, then he indeed knew what to do.
"That’s right, no need to avoid anything." Lin Feng nodded at this moment, feeling assured that Huangmao understood his intention, trusting that he would handle things well.
The conversation left the kids bewildered as they didn’t know what Lin Feng intended for them to experience. However, as with anything Lin Feng arranged, they would execute it without hesitation because they knew Lin Feng did everything for their own good.
"Alright, Boss, I’ll arrange it right away." Huangmao now completely understood Lin Feng’s idea, he simply agreed, and immediately called the people nearby to notify his subordinates responsible for various tasks to come, so he could delegate duties properly.
With Huangmao’s orders, his subordinates, the heads of various small factions, soon appeared in the bar, lined up in front of Huangmao. Seeing Huangmao’s look of confusion in their eyes, with peripheral vision darting towards Lin Feng and the kids, each was incredibly curious, wondering what on earth was going on today, why had Brother Huangmao suddenly gathered them?
