Beauty and the Bodyguard

8160 Chapter 8158-

A suspicious person would feel that they were in an environment of conspiracy theories at any time, so the first hall Master began to think about it again.

Ouyang Changqing, who was familiar with the first hall master’s personality, knew that something was wrong and immediately said,””I heard that there were indeed people who went to buy medicinal pills, but they couldn’t even buy a single pill! This is not a lie!”

“Heh … Vice Hall Master Ouyang, don’t you know why we can’t buy any pills?”

Lin Yi smiled coldly and cupped his hands at the first hall Master.”Hall Master, let’s not talk about whether the clinic has pills or not. Is there a problem with us saying that the clinic doesn’t sell pills? The purpose of setting up a Medical Center to serve ordinary itinerant cultivators and civilians was to reduce the consumption of medicinal pills. Why would someone want to buy medicinal pills from a Medical Center? What is he thinking?”

“If you want pills, isn’t it more reasonable to buy them from the alchemy Association? If our Medical Hall were to lift the restrictions on the purchase of elixirs, what would the alchemy Association be for? Or should we let the alchemy Association become the medical center’s subsidiary, specializing in the production of pills for the medical center and be a simple supplier?”

Ouyang Changqing’s face turned green. If what Lin Yi said was true, then what was the point of being the president of the alchemy Association?

If that really happened, the status of the medical center and the alchemy Association would be completely reversed. It was simply terrifying just thinking about it!

“There’s nothing wrong with that! There weren’t many medicinal pills in the medical Hall, and ordinary injured patients were not qualified to use them! It’s a life-saving item, so how can it be bought by anyone?”

The artifact language spoke up at the right time, but it was actually on Lin Yi’s side.

Even if he ignored him, he would still stir up some reason. Now that he had the reason, he was even more confident.”If the medical Hall has a surplus of medicinal pills, it’s naturally not a problem to take some out to sell! But now that they didn’t have any surplus, why should they take out medicinal pills to sell? Ouyang Changqing, tell me, what’s the use of the alchemy Association if it’s really like this?”

Ouyang Changqing’s face began to turn dark again, as gloomy as water.

The first hall master’s suspicious eyes also turned over. Ouyang Changqing saw that he couldn’t avoid it, so he could only force himself to laugh dryly.

“First hall Master, I’m not very clear about this matter. I only heard from my subordinates that there was a time constraint during the investigation, so there was indeed an oversight!”

He knew that it was impossible to take Lin Yi down with this!

He could only stop his losses in time and get himself out of this matter.

“Vice head Ouyang, what do you think we should do about the situation outside?”

The first hall master’s face was cold, and he asked in a neutral tone,””It seems that you didn’t do a good job in appeasing the public’s emotions before, vice Hall Master Ouyang! They’re being unreasonable, yet they still dare to cause such a ruckus. Do they really think that our martial Alliance branch won’t dare to deal with them?”

“The good people are naturally the people that our martial Alliance protects. We need to listen to their demands and solve their problems! But if they’re just looking for trouble and disrupting order, are we supposed to bear the humiliation and cooperate with them?”

When the first hall Master finished speaking, Ouyang Changqing’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly lowered his head and bowed. “It’s your subordinate’s fault! This subordinate thought that they were making a normal request, so he took a gentler approach! Since they were thugs, he would deal with them with thunderous means! Don’t worry Hall Master, this subordinate will immediately disperse them!”

At this time, Ouyang Changqing’s mind was very clear. He knew that if he continued to resist, he would only fall into an even more disadvantageous situation.

Didn’t he see that even his ally, the Deputy Hall Master of the Kongtong Sect, Gu Shiyi, was displeased?

He had to be decisive and quickly settle the whole matter, so that he could completely cut himself out!

The previous incident of the poisonous medicinal pill had already caused great dissatisfaction to the first hall Master. If it happened again, Ouyang Changqing could not guarantee that he would still be able to hold on to his position as the Deputy Hall Master!

The first hall master’s expression softened, but he suddenly changed his tone,””It’s good that you can think this way, but there are so many people out there, and the vast majority of them have been deceived. You can’t just destroy them all. ”

“How about this? let’s disperse them. If they dare to resist, we’ll target them. As for the others … We’ll have to avoid harming the innocent!”

“Yes!” Ouyang Changqing quickly agreed, feeling more or less relieved.

After all, he knew who had caused this. Those who had incited the fire were his own people, and they didn’t need to use thunderous means to solve it.

Lin Yi didn’t say anything, a little disappointed.

This first hall Master really lacked some courage!

This was the kind of person who was indecisive.

To be able to sit in the position of first hall Master for so long, he really didn’t know if his luck was heaven-defying!

If it were someone else, they would probably have been swallowed until not even dregs were left, right?

“President Sima, this is a misunderstanding. Everything will be fine once everyone is clear! Is the clinic alright? If you’re free, why don’t you stay and have a drink with me?”

The head turned to Lin Yi with a whole new face, a smile as big as a chrysanthemum flower. He even pulled the language of living things along,””Vice Hall Master Hua, let’s go together. Both of us were saved by you, President Sima. Let us properly thank you for saving our lives!”

He remembered that he still needed to get the pills from Lin Yi to complete his mission, so he wanted to build a good relationship with Lin Yi.

But he didn’t say anything about helping Lin Yi when he was being framed.

In addition to being weak and suspicious, he was also a cold person by nature, completely different from the language of the living things.

Lin Yi didn’t understand why the monster language would trust its life to a teammate like this. Wasn’t it afraid of being sold?

“Thank you for your kind intentions, Hall Master. However, I’ve just taken over the medical center, and there are many complicated matters that I need to deal with one by one. I won’t disturb you any longer!”

Lin Yi rejected directly.

Lin Yi wasn’t interested in drinking or eating with this first hall Master, even with the help of the language of the living things.

Some people were destined to only be general acquaintances. When they met, it was enough to just say hello. There was no need to waste time on social interactions.

The first hall master’s face froze, evidently not expecting Lin Yi to reject him so directly after he’d personally invited him. He couldn’t get out of this situation.

The artifact language quickly stepped forward and said,””Younger brother Sima is dedicated to the public and is indeed a role model for our generation. The medical Hall has just experienced such a setback, and we indeed need younger brother Sima to go back and take charge! Since that’s the case, let’s have a good drink together after things have stabilized!”

“If there’s something in your heart, you won’t be able to drink in a good mood, right, first hall Master? Today, let me, this thick-skinned man, disturb the hall Master for a good drink! Don’t hide the good wine that you’ve been keeping for yourself. I’ll drink a few more mouthfuls if there’s one less person to share, hahaha!”

The first hall master’s face finally returned to normal after being teased by the language of the living things. He nodded with a smile,””That’s right. President Sima’s hard work is truly rare. Since that’s the case, I’ll let your wine barrel benefit from it today!”
