Chapter 26: Conflict!

  Entering the special weaving room, Chai Frost sat beside a magnificent table, carefully examining the remaining fragments of the magic weave in his hand. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was off, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was profound and mysterious.

  Carefully injecting its own powerful aura into it, although the entire magic pattern has been abandoned, Chai Frost can still feel the strong breath inside that is inconsistent with the third-level aura of the driver, just like a dead person who has proudly stood there.

  "How could this be?" Chai Feng couldn't help but exclaim, recalling his proud and arrogant demeanor. Whether it was Yuwen or Zhiwen, Chai Feng had always thought that his own knowledge and experience were already quite extensive, especially when it came to something like a third-level demonic pattern, which he had previously looked down upon with disdain.

  But now, this seemingly inconspicuous magic fragment, in front of Chai Frost, existed like a huge puzzle.

  "Whose fragment of magic is this? Sang Hongyun's? Impossible, the craftsmanship doesn't match his." Chai Shuang muttered to herself, then stood up and walked over to a magic pattern scanner, attempting to perform an all-around scan on the magic pattern.

  However, due to the presence of protective fluids, it is almost impossible to perform in-depth scanning. The only thing that can be scanned is the function of each wrinkle and judging a few simple components through color contrast.

  However, after a series of scans, something that shocked Chai Feng again appeared. The texture's turning point was ordinary and even some nodes were very childish in the eyes of this proud daughter of heaven. The two components that could barely be detected were also cheap goods.

  "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Chai Shuang exclaimed in a voice that didn't match her understanding of the demonic seal. Cheap materials, simple patterns, how could it possibly create such an eerie and unendurable demonic seal for Zai Shi?

  Undoubtedly, at this moment, Chai Shuang had an unprecedented sense of defeat. At the Xijin Magic Academy, she was undoubtedly a top-notch existence, once hailed as the best successor to Chaisang. But today, right now, a small third-level pharmacist's magic pattern made her feel like she couldn't take another step forward.

  This also stirred up an unprecedented determination in Shibuya, determined to make it clear.

  In the small woods, Xiao Hong naturally did not know that the magical fragment had already brought trouble to someone. In fact, regarding his own super strong magical fragment, Xiao Hong had almost forgotten about it.

  At this moment, a faint joy had already appeared on his face, because just now, he used the power test of the magic pattern in the magic pattern shop to test the thorn magic pattern and got a power value of 468 points.

  This completely exceeded his previous expectations, and as mentioned earlier, the regular third-level combat pattern of a Knight usually has a power value between 300 to 400. Reaching 468 points was already very close to that of a fourth-level combat pattern.

  Carefully putting the Thorny Battle Pattern into the Demon Pattern Bag, Xiao Hong returned to his own broken house with a satisfied heart.

  Locking the door behind him, Xiao Hong once again sat down at his desk and began to use conventional methods to create a few medicinal talismans in preparation for tomorrow's work.

  Although he still has 40 gold coins in savings, Xiao Hongke doesn't plan to sit and enjoy his wealth. He has already thought it through, and after staying here for a while longer, once his cultivation is raised again, he will leave this place and go to Taiwu City to make a living. After all, being a miner isn't Xiao Hongke's dream; becoming a great pharmacist and living like a normal person is his true aspiration.

  Thanks to the powerful assistance of "Huan Diao", coupled with Xiao Hong's hard practice for so many days, there is no longer a big problem with his knife skills, and as a result, the efficiency of making magic patterns has also been greatly improved.

  It had only been a short hour, and Xiao Hong had already remade three Medicine Slaves, still Second-Grade Slave Seals. The reason he hadn't made Third-Grade ones was that there was no need for them, and also to conserve materials and spiritual energy.

  Put three medicinal talismans in the drawer, Xiao Hong's endurance was almost exhausted, fortunately he fell directly on the bed and started snoring loudly.

  Before he knew it, the day had passed. At 8 o'clock in the morning, Xiao Hong opened his eyes and did the first four movements of the body training method. After exercising his muscles and bones, at this time, Xiao Hong could clearly notice that outside the window, injured miners and villagers began to appear in front of their own doors, with a dozen or so people already present.

  Li Le and seven or eight companions also appeared on time, carrying full baskets of medicine, appearing at the door of Xiao Hong's house.

  Seeing this scene, Xiao Hong didn't think it was strange at all. He tied the magic thread around his waist and opened the door to put each cradle in the empty space of his own home. After slightly tidying up, he began to distribute wages to Li Le and others, completely collecting according to the original value of the medicine, as friends, Xiao Hong didn't mean to make money from them.

  But just as Xiao Hong had just finished distributing the wages and was preparing to receive patients, a sudden noise came from outside the door.

  "Who told you all to line up here? Disperse! Disperse!"

  "Remember, you are no longer allowed to come here for medical treatment, this is a new rule of Dongcheng Mining Area!"

  "Get out!"

  Such a rude and unreasonable voice soon came into Xiao Hong's ears from outside the window.

  Unable to help himself, Xiao Hong's expression changed slightly as he put the several silver coins in his hand into Li Le's hand and walked out of the room. Outside the door, Wang Liang and a dozen or so burly miners, holding pickaxes, were coming over with an air of fury.

  These people are all Wang Liang, or Xu Qing's confidants, oppressing the miners, and charging forward. They are often in the Dongcheng Quarry, with Xu Qing backing them up, they act arbitrarily every day, and no one dares to provoke them easily.

  Seeing these people appear, Xiao Hong's expression changed slightly, but he didn't show much shock or surprise. Having been in the East City Quarry for three years, Xiao Hong naturally understood Xu Qing's ruthlessness and tyranny, and absolutely would not allow a second pharmacy to exist in East City Town or near the East City Quarry.

  Although this approach is not orthodox, due to the existence of Xu Qing, a third-level driver, and the reputation of Shaojiang Group, everyone else also dares to be angry but not speak out.

  "Get out? This isn't your territory, you can't just tell people to get out." Li Le, who had followed Xiao Hong out of the room, suddenly spoke up, his tone equally unpleasant and filled with arrogance. He pointed to the boundary line of the Dongcheng Quarry, which was at least a dozen meters away from Xiao Hong's home, meaning that Xiao Hong's room didn't even belong to the Dongcheng Quarry.

  If it were someone else, Li Le would have turned a blind eye, but today was different. This was Xiao Hong's pharmacy, and more importantly, they also had work to do here. Ever since he became Xiao Hong's apprentice, Li Le's income had at least doubled.

  It can also be said that this overbearing behavior is really unbearable, after all, according to reason, Xu Qing's rights are limited to the Dongcheng Quarry, but relying on the power in his hands, he has occupied the entire Dongcheng Town and eliminated everything around him that could threaten his interests.

  But people are also often daring to be angry but not daring to speak out, because Xu Qing is a third-level war puppeteer who can use battle tattoos to fight, whether it's a miner or a villager, this is undoubtedly the existence of a super strong man.

  "That's right, this is my turf. And let me tell you, in this place, my brother-in-law Xu Qing is the sky. Whoever dares to do him harm will be asking for death." Wang Liang said with a hint of disdain, his eyes flicking briefly towards Xiao Hong.

  That's right, in his eyes, Xiao Hong was indeed more powerful than him, but only a second-level Juedi, although he was only one level different from Xu Qing, it was already a world of difference.

  So Wang Liang dared to be so fearless and unscrupulous.

  Then, Wang Liang furrowed his brow and raised the hoe in his hand, pointing at the villagers and miners in line: "Miners are strictly forbidden to stay here. Either go to work or go to Miaodan Medicine Hall. As for the villagers, it's the same. You have one minute, otherwise I won't be polite!"

  When he finished speaking, he looked at the more than ten burly miners behind Wang Liang, who were all holding pickaxes and walking towards the villagers and injured miners waiting in line for medical treatment, driving away the crowd in a nearly rough manner.

  Seeing the fierce miner starting to push and shove villagers, Lin Zi couldn't take it anymore, directly grabbed a pickaxe and rushed over. Xiao Hong had done him a favor, these were all Xiao Hong's patients, he naturally couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

  Right behind him was Li Le and other companions, in an instant, the scene began to become chaotic.

  Among the miners, it can be said that such a scene is simply a common occurrence, the only difference being that this time Li Le and his group are facing fierce miners, and on the surface, they are at a disadvantage.

  Wang Liang, who had always been standing at the back of the team, didn't make a move. He glanced at Li Le and others, then turned his head to the side, and his mouth curved slightly. Then he fixed his gaze on Xiao Hong and said disdainfully: "Wait a minute, it's your turn soon. Today I'll let you know what kind of ending it will be if you dare to mess with Xu Ge."

  Xiao Hong, standing at his own doorstep, saw Wang Liang's arrogant and contemptuous expression, and his originally calm face gradually darkened.

  According to Xiao Hong's character, he didn't like to cause trouble or get entangled with Xu Qing and others, but if the other party bullied him too much, Xiao Hong wouldn't just sit back and do nothing either. One of his hands had already slowly placed itself on the magic seal package.

  "Uh, ah..."

  However, at this moment, Xiao Hong's eyes suddenly noticed that a man in his seventies was grasping his chest and slowly falling to the ground amidst the chaos. His face was pale, his lips were purple, and his expression was filled with pain.
