My Co-renting Lady Boss

Chapter 2190: Chapter 2186: Framed and Falsely Accused

Recently, in the past two days, the number of people visiting Shan Ze has noticeably increased. Those who previously looked down on Shan Ze eagerly rushed forward to speak with him upon seeing him.

Shan Ze understood that these people were not targeting him, but rather his identity.

After all, Tang Ming favored him heavily, entrusting him solely with the entire renovation project of the medical hall, with only Guo Muye overseeing the work.

Guo Muye was Tang Ming’s man, while Shan Ze was just a person pushed by Tian Huansheng to the medical hall to scramble for a meal.

"Hall Master, you’ve arrived. There’s a Mr. Tang inside waiting for you."

Zhou Mo walked out from inside the medical hall. Nowadays, only two out of the five large gates of the medical hall were used to receive guests, while the remaining three remained closed.

Tang Ming was managing the medical hall in the same manner as a hospital in the Mortal World. Each Immortal Doctor employed in the hall had their specific responsibilities and tasks to manage. They even specifically cultivated some Immortal Doctors to handle common injuries.

"Mr. Tang? What is his name?"

In Tang Ming’s mind, the image of Tang Song flashed by.

Zhou Mo shook his head: "I don’t know either. He came here this morning. It’s unclear what he wants. After hearing you weren’t here, he stayed and waited for you."

"Oh, what does this Mr. Tang look like?"

Tang Ming was silent for a moment before he spoke.

"An old man with a cane, looks quite celestial and sage-like, but his strength isn’t great, only at the Middle Stage of enlightenment."

Zhou Mo was perplexed, confused as to why Tang Ming seemed to care so much about the old man named Tang. Could it be that this elder Tang was a relative of Tang Ming?

"An old man? That shouldn’t be the case. Come, lead me to see him."

Upon hearing the visitor wasn’t Tang Song, Tang Ming was very surprised.

Following Zhou Mo, Tang Ming walked to the small parlor where the elderly Mr. Tang was being hosted, savoring his Medicinal Tea.

Seeing Zhou Mo and Tang Ming enter, the old man’s eyes gleamed: "I presume this to be the Hall Master of Tianpo City’s medical hall, Tang Ming."

"I am indeed Tang Ming. May I know who you might be, sir?"

Tang Ming nodded, and Lan Yanyou perched on Tang Ming’s shoulder also cautiously watched the elder.

The elder grinned and said, "I’m merely a servant under my master. My master heard that the Black Skull provoked you, so he sent you a grand gift. I wonder if you’ll like it."

"You killed those Black Skull people? Don’t you know this might cause trouble for me? Now everyone in Tianpo City, people from the Chu Family, and the Black Skull likely think it’s me, Tang Ming, who did this. This is your master’s gift to me too."

Tang Ming snorted coldly, and the smile on his face instantly disappeared.

The elder wasn’t angry; he tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Rest assured, Hall Master Tang, I promise that the Black Skull won’t dare bother you. If they dare come after you, by tomorrow morning, the head of the Black Skull’s chief instructor will hang at your doorstep."

"Oh, the elder may be weak, but he speaks boldly. May I ask, who is your master, sir?"

Tang Ming squinted at the elder, thinking he might have some connection to Tang Song.

But the elder shook his head and said, "I’m only here to convey my master’s words. My master’s name is one I dare not mention, being so insignificant. Having delivered the message, I’ll take my leave."

"Please don’t leave, considering your master has helped me deal with those Black Skull members. I must prepare some gifts as well. Here are some items from my hometown. If your master is from my hometown, I’m sure he’ll like them."

With a wave of Tang Ming’s hand, a handful of red dried peppers appeared in his grip.

Upon seeing Tang Ming bring out the red peppers, the elder’s lips trembled twice, looking at Tang Ming in disbelief.

"Hall Master Tang, may I ask where you obtained these peppers?"

Tang Ming’s pupils constricted. Evidently, this elder had ascended from the Mortal World to the Taoyuan World too. However, he wondered why someone capable of ascending from the Mortal World to the Taoyuan World would be so weak.

Seeing Tang Ming’s expression, the elder knew he seemed to have lost his composure earlier. He coughed and said, "My apologies for being abrupt. Thank you for the gift, Hall Master Tang. I believe my master will like it."

"Where is he? May I meet him once?"

Tang Ming felt his throat dry. Regardless of who it might be, as long as the person also ascended from the Mortal World, Tang Ming believed he should meet them.

The elder remained silent, merely looking in a daze at the peppers placed on the wooden table.

Tang Ming sighed heavily, "Zhou Mo, help the elder pack these peppers, please see him out."

Watching Tang Ming walking towards the Alchemy Room, Zhou Mo smiled at the elder.

"Though the Hall Master might be a bit unhappy, the things done by your master thrilled everyone in our medical hall. Please thank your master for standing up for our Hall Master. The Chu Family is too arrogant, even hiring Black Skull to target our Hall Master."

There was a hint of anger in Zhou Mo’s voice.

The elder smiled without commenting further. He stored the peppers in his Storage Ring and hurriedly left.

The Chu Family never expected that the Black Skull members in Tianpo City would be killed overnight and their bodies hung at the entrance of the Chu family’s pharmacy.

"What is going on? I want to know, did any of our Chu Family members hire Black Skull to target Tang Ming?"

Chu Bashan’s face looked very upset as he faced the Chu Family Elders around the council wooden table.

"Bashan, take your time discussing. What exactly happened?"

Chu Li narrowed his eyes, looking at the elders who wore expressions of surprise, then he coughed and said.

"Ancestor, everyone is aware of what Chu Qing mentioned earlier. That Tang Ming is not a simple character. But he was assassinated last night. The assassins were sent by Black Skull."

Chu Bashan’s voice was somewhat hoarse, causing the surrounding elders to furrow their brows.

The Chu Family never had interactions with Black Skull, but suddenly the Assassin Organization Black Skull targeted Tang Ming, and it happened at such a sensitive time.

"I believe this is framing and slandering."

The bald man standing beside Chu Li said.

"Go on."

Seeing someone wanted to refute, Chu Li nodded in agreement.
