Tang Zhongxin stood there, watching Liu Xiaoyuan and Xiao Qingfeng's backs, his fists clenched in anger. As the dignified head of the Tang family, when had he ever lost face like this?
This is intolerable! Tang Zhongxin narrowed his eyes, revealing a chilling gaze.
"Hmph, if I don't teach you a lesson, do you think I, Tang Zhongxin, am made of paper?" Tang Zhongxin decided to teach Liu Xiaoyuan a lesson.
Tang Zhongxin discovered that Liu Xiaoyuan was behind all of this, and that every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor.
Having left the Tang family, Liu Xiaoyuan was unaware that everything he had done that day had aroused Tang Zhongxin's desire for revenge. Even if he had known, Liu Xiaoyuan wouldn't have cared.
Liu Xiaoyuan did not immediately reply, but instead had Xiao Qingfeng take him to the Li family.
Now, both Yang Zihan's mother and Tang Xuan's mother need the Snow Fragrance herb. Liu Xiaoyuan only knows that the Li family has one, and they can only obtain it from them.
“This is the Li family’s residence!” Xiao Qingfeng said, pointing to a large courtyard house not far ahead.
It seems that these large families prefer to live in courtyard houses. Indeed, courtyard houses are spacious, so even if a large family lives together, it won't feel crowded. Moreover, in a place like Beijing, being able to afford a courtyard house is a symbol of status.
Liu Xiaoyuan did not get out of the car, because he had already used his chance to summon a mid-level powerful figure once. If he went to the Li family, he would definitely have to fight. Every time he missed a chance, he would lose a bit of his chance of winning.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan decided to come tomorrow to see if he could get his hands on the Snow Fragrance.
"Let's go!" After finding out the location of the Li family's house, Liu Xiaoyuan told Xiao Qingfeng to drive the car away.
Xiao Qingfeng didn't ask why, turned the car around and drove away.
On the way, Liu Xiaoyuan asked, "Dr. Xiao, do you know where the Li family's Snow Fragrance is located?"
Liu Xiaoyuan wanted to find out the location of Xuexiangcao, and then thought about whether he should become a thief that night, so that he could get his hands on Xuexiangcao without bloodshed. That would be the best outcome.
Xiao Qingfeng said, "I know that. Last time, when the Li family asked me to help Li Yihao treat his internal injuries, I had the opportunity to see the Li family's Snow Fragrance. The Li family keeps the Snow Fragrance in their backyard, and there are several people guarding it 24 hours a day, both to look after the medicinal herbs and to protect the Snow Fragrance!"
"By the way, there are not only guards in the Li family's backyard, but also two Tibetan mastiffs, which shows how much the Li family values this snow grass."
Given these precautions, Liu Xiaoyuan really wasn't confident he could steal the Snow Fragrance quietly.
"Dr. Xiao, could you please give me a floor plan of the Li family's residence?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
Xiao Qingfeng couldn't help but ask, "Young friend, are you planning to go to the Li family tonight and steal this Snow Fragrance?"
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't hide anything and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking, so please give me a floor plan of the Li family's residence, Dr. Xiao."
Xiao Qingfeng said, "Young friend, I will draw a copy for you as soon as we arrive at Jishan Hall, but I am not very familiar with the Li family, so the drawing will certainly not be very accurate."
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "It's okay, something is better than nothing. As long as we have a general idea, it's fine!"
Upon arriving at Jishan Hall, Xiao Qingfeng immediately led Liu Xiaoyuan to the backyard, took out paper and pen, and, relying on his memory, drew a floor plan of the Li family.
After the blueprints were completed, Xiao Qingfeng pointed to them and said, "Young friend, the Li family's backyard is located here. In fact, it's more accurate to call it the Li family's center rather than their backyard. The backyard is quite spacious. To enter, unless you know how to become invisible, you'll definitely be discovered by the guards or Tibetan mastiffs."
Upon inspection, Liu Xiaoyuan confirmed that the place where the snow grass was planted was indeed a place with a wide view, and it would probably be impossible to enter quietly.
However difficult it may be, Liu Xiaoyuan is determined to give it a try.
"Thank you, Dr. Xiao!" Liu Xiaoyuan put away the drawings, thanked Xiao Qingfeng, and then left Jishantang.
Back at the hotel, Lin Xin and the others hadn't returned yet. With nothing to do, Liu Xiaoyuan took out the drawings Xiao Qingfeng had made and placed them on the table, hoping to come up with a good solution.
A blueprint is just a blueprint, and there is a huge difference between it and the real thing. So, Liu Xiaoyuan stared at the blueprint for a long time, but he was still completely clueless and had no good ideas.
After staring blankly at the blueprints for a while, Liu Xiaoyuan began to communicate with the God-level Invincible System.
"Hey, handsome system, I have a question for you," Liu Xiaoyuan asked.
The system said, "Speak, what is it?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Tonight I want to steal a medicinal herb, but the place where the herb is located is in a wide-open area, and there are guards and two Tibetan mastiffs. Who do you think I should choose to steal this Snow Fragrance without anyone noticing?"
Upon hearing this, the system replied, "There are plenty of powerful characters available, it's just that your level is too low to summon them."
Holy crap! Isn't that obvious? If I could summon a god, I wouldn't need to ask you; I could just use an invisibility spell to steal Snow Fragrance.
The system continued, "Kid, given your current level, I have two suggestions: one is Dao Zhi, and the other is Shi Qian."
Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't quite sure who Dao Zhi was, but he knew Shi Qian quite well. Shi Qian, nicknamed "Drummer," was a character in the Water Margin. Although he was ranked quite low, when it came to petty theft, probably no one in the Water Margin could surpass him.
"System, who is this Robber Zhi?" Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but ask.
The system said irritably, "You were so busy chasing girls when you were in school that you don't even know who Dao Zhi is. What were you studying for? If you don't know, go Google it! I'm not your history teacher, I have no obligation to explain it to you!"
Holy crap! This damn system has a really bad temper.
Helpless, Liu Xiaoyuan had no choice but to take out his phone and search for information about Dao Zhi on Baidu. Baidu introduced him as follows: Dao Zhi's original name was Zhan Xiong, surname Ji, clan Zhan, given name Zhi, also known as Liu Xia Zhi or Liu Zhan Xiong...
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoyuan thought that the ancients were really something else, making so many fuss over a single name.
Baidu has very little information about Dao Zhi, and at the end it says that some people say Dao Zhi was the leader of an uprising in the late Spring and Autumn Period, while others say he was a great thief during the time of the Yellow Emperor. Whether this person actually existed cannot be determined, but legends about Dao Zhi have indeed been circulating for a long time.
This means that whether Dao Zhi actually existed is still unknown. However, this has absolutely nothing to do with Liu Xiaoyuan; as long as the God-level Invincible System has this awesome character, that's all that matters.
The key issue is that Baidu doesn't provide much information about Dao Zhi's abilities, leaving Liu Xiaoyuan wondering just how capable this guy really is.
