When Du Hangwu thought of the magic medicine, he suddenly felt that his shoes could still be worn, but his butt could not bear it at all. After the medicine was used up, he would have to ask for more.
What if you go to ask for shoes from someone and make them unhappy? Then they will tell the gods about it, and then they won't be able to get medicine from you anymore. The medicine given by the gods cannot be found in the mortal world.
I can't let a pair of shoes hold me back.
Thinking this way, he realized that there were gains and losses, so he stopped worrying about the shoes.
Because he stayed in ancient times for a long time last night, it was almost two o'clock when he returned to the modern world and finished washing up. The next day, Gu Xingzhao slept until one o'clock in the afternoon and only woke up when he received a call from his lawyer.
The lawyer said that the court advocated mediation if possible, and Lei Ping also wanted mediation and could give monetary compensation, no matter how much Gu Xingzhao wanted.
He called because he wanted to ask Gu Xingzhao whether he wanted to consider mediation.
He explained: "Ms. Gu, this kind of case is actually not easy to fight. It takes a lot of time and energy. The other party is now willing to pay monetary compensation. If you agree to mediation, you will be in an advantageous position and can get a lot of compensation."
Gu Xingzhao did not hesitate. Lei Ping wanted to mediate simply to blur out the voices on the Internet that were unfavorable to her. Of course, she could spend money to do this.
She didn't originally want to make the matter public, but she insisted on doing that live broadcast and made the matter even more serious. Naturally, she should bear the consequences herself.
Originally, Gu Xingzhao didn't care about things like reputation, but Lei Ping made her realize that one should not give in. If she gave in this time, more similar things would happen in the future.
In the end, everyone will step on their own head.
Money is important, but some things are far more important than money, and I am not short of money now.
Gu Xingzhao: "Lawyer Yan, I will not accept any mediation. I will fight this case regardless of whether I win or lose. Don't worry about the lawyer's fees. You will not be shortchanged."
Lawyer Yan was relieved when he saw that Gu Xingzhao was so determined.
In fact, this matter has become such a big deal now. If I win the lawsuit, my law firm can also get some free advertising.
So when the other party proposed mediation and offered monetary compensation, he was a little worried that Gu Xingzhao would agree. After all, this type of case was ultimately won, which meant monetary compensation, so most people would still choose mediation.
Now that he knew that the other party was determined to fight the lawsuit regardless of winning or losing, he felt much more relieved.
"Don't worry, Miss Gu. I will do my best to win this lawsuit."
"sorry to bother you."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Xingzhao got up and took out dumplings from the refrigerator to cook.
Sitting in the living room, she ate dumplings while watching the Lu family. She found that Happy Bag Lu Yang was dejected, and so was Lu Xingyao. She wanted to ask Lu Qing what happened, but suddenly she received a message on WeChat from the female salesperson Mo Li whom she had met at the car dealership before.
Mo Li: Do you still remember me?
Gu Xingzhao raised his eyebrows and replied tapping his fingers: Of course I remember.
The one about going home to farm was very impressive.
Mo Li: I went back to my hometown to farm, and I just planted new seeds yesterday. If you don't mind, please give me your address. I'll send you some when the harvest is ready.
Gu Xingzhao smiled. He didn't expect that others still remembered this matter. He had almost forgotten it.
If I refuse, will it hurt her feelings?
What if I dampen her enthusiasm?
After thinking about it, I decided to accept some dishes and then treat her to a meal as a return gift.
Gu Xingzhao immediately sent the supermarket address to Mo Li, along with an emoji that said "come on".
Mo Li over there was obviously very happy.
That afternoon, Gu Xingzhao went to ancient times and entered the house prepared for him by He Zhen.
The room was very big, and even though she said an empty room would do, He Zhen still put in the bed, table and chairs.
Gu Xingzhao looked at the house and found that it was larger than his second floor. It was obvious that the largest room in the house was reserved for him.
She secretly took the other party's kindness to heart.
Because we had ordered no one to get close to the room and the door was locked, it was very quiet around the room.
Gu Xingzhao moved all the fireworks and firecrackers that he had prepared over, selected some of them, turned on the system's refining function, separated out the raw materials he needed and placed them on the table. Then, he used the tools he had bought to try to make something for self-defense.
Among materials such as paper bags, bamboo tubes and plastic shells, she chose bamboo tubes, filled them with a certain proportion of materials, and hung a fuse on them.
He made five in a row, but Gu Xingzhao still had little confidence. After all, it was his first time making explosives, and he didn't know if the method he learned from the material book would work.
She was always worried that she might make a mistake and blow up the whole house.
With the completion of the last step, her heart finally settled down a little, and she immediately took the prepared explosives to find an uninhabited hill.
As the cold wind blew, Gu Xingzhao held the explosive cartridge and repeatedly asked the system, "Are you sure there is no one within a hundred miles?"
[Reporting to the host, there is no one within a hundred miles of your coordinates. ]
"Are you sure that after this thing explodes, you won't be affected, like being disconnected from me or something like that?"
[Reply to host, as long as you are alive, the system will not actively disconnect you. ]
"What about passive?"
[Return to the host, as long as you are safe, the system will not actively or passively disconnect you. ]
"If I get hurt, will I be unable to return to the modern era?"
[Reporting to the host, when your life is threatened, the system will automatically activate emergency safety protection for you and forcibly take you back to the present, please rest assured. ]
Gu Xingzhao, who was afraid of death and being left in the ancient times where there was no fun at all, asked the system many questions in succession.
After making sure that everything was safe, he took out a lighter, lit the fuse, and threw the bamboo tube out!
This was her first time doing such a thing, and what she was throwing was not something with low firepower like firecrackers. Her heart was beating extremely fast, and she didn't know if she could successfully
make the fuse burn quickly, bringing a ray of fire that would cut through the silent air and reach the core of the explosive.
With a loud "bang", a deafening roar echoed through the valley, like the roar of a wild beast. The ground on the top of the mountain seemed to be shaking, with earth and rocks flying and smoke and dust billowing!
Although Gu Xingzhao was mentally prepared, he was still startled and subconsciously raised his hand to block the dust that was blowing in front of him.
When the dust settled, there was still wind blowing, and Gu Xingzhao's clothes were rustling. After confirming that there would be no more explosions, she approached cautiously and found a pit probably where the barrel of explosives was. The surrounding grass and trees were devoured by flames, and ashes were rolling.
There was an unconcealable shock in her eyes. The power of the explosives was beyond her expectations!
As if she saw countless possible futures, her heartbeat accelerated and she was very excited. As long as she had this, who could hurt the Lu family?
Not to mention letting the Lu family protect themselves, even overthrowing the dog emperor was completely possible!
