"Mr. Hu, are you okay?" Wang Kaixuan asked worriedly.
Hu Bayi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm fine, keep fighting."
After a hard fight, they finally found the Linglong Snake Grass. Linglong Snake Grass grows deep in the cave and emits a strange light.
They carefully picked the Linglong Snake Grass, and their hearts were filled with joy.
"We finally found it. Brother Hu is saved." Huo Jilin said excitedly.
The three of them quickly left the mountains with thirteen kinds of precious herbs. They rushed back to the city without stopping and handed the herbs to the doctor.
The doctors were also very surprised to see these precious herbs. They immediately began to study how to use these herbs to treat Mr. Hu's illness.
After a period of treatment, Mr. Hu's condition gradually improved. Huo Jilin, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan saw that Mr. Hu had recovered, and the stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.
"Thanks to you, I can save my life." Mr. Hu said gratefully.
The three smiled and said, "Brother Hu, you have done us a favor. This is what we should do."
...
After experiencing the thrilling journey of searching for medicine in the mountains, the lives of Huo Jilin, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan gradually returned to peace. The antique shop was also open as usual, welcoming and seeing off guests from all walks of life.
On this day, Xiao Haicheng, a foreign medicinal material merchant, came to the antique shop. Xiao Haicheng was short and had a cunning look, giving people an unreliable feeling. He walked into the antique shop with a pipe in his hand and a smile on his face.
"Hello, boss! I heard that your antique shop is very famous. I have a treasure here and want to sell it to you." Xiao Haicheng said.
Huo Jilin raised his head, looked at Xiao Haicheng, and said with a smile: "Oh? What treasure? Take it out and have a look."
Xiao Haicheng carefully took out the pipe and handed it to Huo Jilin. "Boss, look at this pipe, this is an old item, very precious."
Huo Jilin took the pipe and observed it carefully. He found that although the workmanship of this pipe was fine, there were some things wrong with the material and style.
"Where did you get this pipe from?" Huo Jilin asked.
Xiao Haicheng rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, I got this in a remote place. I spent a lot of money on it. Now I want to sell it to you. You will definitely make a fortune."
Huo Jilin frowned and continued to observe the pipe. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this pipe was a fake.
"Your pipe is not right. I don't think it's real." Huo Jilin said.
Xiao Haicheng was a little panicked when he heard it, but he quickly regained his composure. "Boss, don't talk nonsense. This pipe is absolutely real. How could I lie to you?"
Huo Jilin sneered and said, "Don't think I can't see it. The material and craftsmanship of this pipe are problematic. It's obviously a fake."
Xiao Haicheng wanted to quibble, but when he saw Huo Jilin's firm eyes, he knew that his lie was exposed. He thought to himself that it was not good, and turned around and wanted to run.
"Want to run? Not that easy!" Huo Jilin shouted and immediately chased after him.
Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi heard the noise and ran out from behind.
"What's going on? Old Huo." Hu Bayi asked.
"This man used a fake pipe to deceive me, and he still wanted to run away." Huo Jilin said.
Wang Kaixuan was furious when he heard it. "This guy is too bold to cheat in our antique shop. I will catch him."
The three of them chased after him together. Xiao Haicheng ran desperately in front, but he could not run faster than Huo Jilin and the others. Soon, they forced Xiao Haicheng into a corner.
"Run! Why don't you run?" Wang Kaixuan said.
Xiao Haicheng was terrified and stammered, "My dear men, please forgive me. I was just confused for a moment and wanted to cheat you."
Huo Jilin said seriously, "Do you think you can get away after cheating someone? Come on, let's go to see the official."
When Xiao Haicheng heard that he was going to see the official, he was so scared that he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. "Boss, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me."
But Huo Jilin was unmoved. He directly called the constable to arrest Xiao Haicheng.
"You, a liar, wait for the punishment of the rules." Huo Jilin said.
The constables came soon and took Xiao Haicheng away. Xiao Haicheng tried to struggle as he walked, but it was useless.
"Boss, thank you for catching this liar. Otherwise, I don't know how many people would be deceived." A bystander said.
Huo Jilin smiled and said, "This is what I should do. Everyone must be careful when buying antiques in the future and don't trust strangers easily."
Back at the antique shop, Hu Bayi and Wang KaixuanHe appreciated Huo Jilin's decisive action.
"Old Huo, you did the right thing. This kind of liar can't be let go." Hu Bayi said.
Wang Kaixuan also nodded and said, "Yes, if he runs away, I don't know how many people will be harmed."
Huo Jilin said, "We who are in the antique business must have integrity. We can't let these liars destroy our industry."
After this incident, the reputation of the antique shop became even louder. People know that the owner of this antique shop not only has vision, but also a sense of justice.
In the arrest room, Xiao Haicheng was imprisoned in a dark cell. He was full of fear and unwillingness, and kept thinking about ways to escape.
Xiao Haicheng looked around and found that the ground of the cell was relatively soft, so he decided to dig a hole to escape.
Xiao Haicheng quietly began to dig. He used a broken tile as a tool and carefully dug the ground. After several hours of hard work, he finally dug a hole big enough for his body to pass through.
Taking advantage of the night, Xiao Haicheng quietly crawled out of the cave and successfully escaped from the police room.
The next day, the police found that Xiao Haicheng had escaped and panicked.
They knew that if they could not catch Xiao Haicheng as soon as possible, they would be severely punished. So they hurriedly reported to their superiors and began to look for Xiao Haicheng's whereabouts.
Huo Jilin was very angry when he learned that Xiao Haicheng had escaped. He felt that he could not sit idly by and must help the police catch Xiao Haicheng.
Huo Jilin remembered that he had learned a kind of Tianyu technique, which could track the target by sensing the breath of objects. He decided to use the Tianyu technique to help the police find Xiao Haicheng.
Huo Jilin came to the antique shop and took out the fake pipe that Xiao Haicheng had brought. He closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and began to use the Tianyu technique.
Gradually, he felt a faint breath, which was emitted from the fake pipe. Huo Jilin followed the breath and began to track Xiao Haicheng's whereabouts.
Huo Jilin walked while sensing the direction of the breath. He walked through streets and alleys, and finally came to a remote place!
