Chapter 1426 The Night Pearl is Stolen
"He owes you money, so just go to him. Xiaolin is just an innocent person, and you shouldn't let her pay the bill." Gu Ning said coldly.
"Yes, yes, I know. I was wrong. I shouldn't have agreed." Brother Ping admitted his mistake immediately. Since Gu Ning and Chu Peihan had intervened in the matter, he naturally dared not deny his mistake.
"Xiaolin jumped from such a high floor because of you. Her life was hanging by a thread. If I hadn't saved her, the consequences would have been disastrous. So, Brother Ping, do you think Xiaolin should be given some compensation?" Gu Ning said. Although their behavior was abominable, Gu Ning did not use his fists to deal with Brother Ping, because the more abominable people had been beaten beyond recognition.
Moreover, Brother Ping had a good attitude in admitting his mistakes. Although it was out of fear, at least it didn't make people angry.
Also, the thing has already happened, and Xiaolin is fine now. Even if Brother Ping is beaten up, it will still be the same, so it is better to get some compensation for Xiaolin.
"Yes, yes, yes, of course." Brother Ping understood what was said and immediately took out three stacks of cash from his bag and handed them to Gu Ning: "Ms. Gu, I only have 30,000 yuan in cash on me. Consider it as compensation to Miss Xiaolin. If it's not enough, I'll go get more."
The 30,000 yuan was the account that Brother Ping just received today, so he hasn't had time to deposit it in the bank. If Gu Ning doesn't care, he will have to go and withdraw a few tens of thousands more.
It's not that it's a pity, it's that I don't dare to say it! "..." Xiaolin opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.
As long as she is fine, why would I dare to ask for any compensation!
"That's enough." Gu Ning took it directly without going too far.
Hearing this, Brother Ping finally breathed a sigh of relief and saved the rest of the money.
"Okay, I'll take Xiaolin away. You can deal with him on your own! I don't want him to have the chance to do anything to Xiaolin again." Gu Ning said. The implication of his words was very obvious, so Brother Ping immediately understood what Gu Ning meant and nodded repeatedly.
Then, Gu Ning left with the group.
After walking a few steps, Xiaolin suddenly remembered that her bag was still in the room: "My, my bag..."
"I'll get it for you." Upon hearing that, Brother Ping immediately took the initiative to go in and help Xiaolin take out the bag. Haoran took it and handed it to Xiaolin.
Then Gu Ning directly put 30,000 yuan into Xiaolin's bag.
"Ms. Gu, this..." Xiaolin suddenly felt panic and wanted to refuse the money, but before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Gu Ning: "Take it, this is what you deserve."
I almost lost my life, thirty thousand dollars is nothing.
Gu Ning's attitude was firm and left no room for resistance, so Xiaolin couldn't say no when the words came to her lips, and could only say thank you.
Until Gu Ning left, the hotel owner had not arrived yet, but the front desk clerk had already seen what happened from the surveillance video.
Although the man was beaten, it was considered a good thing that no one was killed.
Because they saw them beat the man, the front desk didn't even dare to stop them when they left. What if they angered them and got beaten by them? After leaving the hotel, Gu Ning asked Xiaolin to either stay in the hotel for one night and go home tomorrow, or book a flight for the evening and go home to Mashan.
Xiaolin couldn't stay in City F any longer, so she immediately booked a ticket to go home in the evening. However, she didn't want to think about what would happen to that man.
Before leaving, Xiaolin thanked everyone repeatedly. If it weren't for them, she would have lost her life here.
After Xiaolin left in the car, Gu Ning and others also left.
As soon as Gu Ning and the others left, Brother Ping took the man away.
When the boss arrived, the person was gone. Fortunately, he did not cause any trouble to their hotel. The hotel also did not suffer any other losses, so they did not call the police to investigate the matter.
When Gu Ning returned home, it was already twelve o'clock. Leng Shaoting did not call her tonight, so he must have been busy with other things!
Yes, Leng Shaoting is busy now.
It was already late at night. Leng Shaoting and three members of the Red Flame Team had just arrived outside a cave in the mountains, ready to catch the thief who stole the night pearl from the Beijing Museum tonight.
A few days ago, the Beijing Museum obtained a night-shining pearl and put it on display during the day. However, at seven o'clock in the afternoon, the night-shining pearl was stolen, seriously injuring two staff members of the Beijing Museum.
Because Xu Jingchen happened to be on vacation today, he returned to the capital and went to see the Night Pearl with Old Man Xu, Jiang Zhongyu and Leng Weihua.
Since the museum got not only one night pearl but also other objects, Mr. Xu and his two companions, who were fond of antiques, did not rush back, but instead looked at other objects in the museum warehouse.
Because these objects have not had time to be cleaned and their origins have not been investigated, they are not on display in the exhibition hall.
Just when he was about to leave, he heard that the night pearl had been stolen, and then Xu Jingchen immediately tracked it down.
However, the other party was very fast and Xu Jingchen could not catch up at all. This made Xu Jingchen suddenly think that the other party might not be a human, but the evil cultivator that Gu Ning mentioned.
So, Xu Jingchen immediately contacted Leng Shaoting, and then the group began to investigate the surveillance.
The four people who carried out the mission this time were Leng Shaoting, Xu Jingchen, Ai Weishun and Chen Meng.
The other party's appearance can be clearly seen from the surveillance video, but it is impossible to determine whether the other party is a human or an evil cultivator, because in the eyes of ordinary people, there is no difference between evil cultivators and humans.
Of course, there is a difference, but only those who are familiar with evil cultivators can see it, and they also need to feel the other party's breath to make an accurate judgment.
After leaving the museum, the other party took a car westward and went out of the city. Because there were surveillance cameras along the main road, they followed the surveillance cameras to track him.
The other party stopped in front of a small village 50 kilometers west of the capital, and then disappeared.
Although the surrounding area was large and no one knew where the other party had gone, making it difficult to find someone, Leng Shaoting and his friends still went there.
However, strangely, during the search, Leng Shaoting could actually faintly feel a spiritual energy, and then he followed this spiritual energy to track it.
As for why Leng Shaoting could feel the existence of spiritual energy, Leng Shaoting didn't know, but Leng Shaoting didn't think too much about it. He thought that it might be because he had eaten more spiritual energy crystals given by Gu Ning, so he could also feel the existence of spiritual energy!
So, Leng Shaoting followed the breath of spiritual energy and came to the outside of this cave. This place was very far away from the village on the side of the road. Even if there were people working inside, they might not come here. It was even more remote than the previous Phoenix Mountain.
