"Hmm...Okay, let's go!" Lin Han smiled and nodded, a sense of inexplicable anticipation rising in his heart. After all, coming to a new city, besides exchanging medical skills, it is also a pleasure to experience the local customs and people.

As the four of them exited the hotel, the bustling scene of Jinnan City instantly came into view. Shops lined the streets, their various signs gleaming alluringly in the setting sun. Pedestrians bustled about, and bursts of cheerful laughter filled the air, creating a harmonious and beautiful scene.

"Boss Lin, let's go try the most famous 'Jinnan snacks' in Jinnan City first?" Yang Siqi suggested excitedly, her eyes seemed to be flashing with endless desire for delicious food.

"Okay, I've heard about it a long time ago. It is said that Jinnan has a wide variety of snacks with unique flavors. I must try them today." Lin Han responded with a smile, and his heart was filled with anticipation.

So, the four of them headed towards a nearby snack street. As soon as they entered, a whirlwind of delicious aromas washed over them, whetting their appetites. Along both sides of the street, a variety of food stalls lined the streets, selling steaming buns, fragrant grilled skewers, and alluring pastries—every single item was mouth-watering.

"Wow, the snacks here look so delicious!" Xu Ming widened his eyes and looked around, as if he wanted to try every one of them.

"Don't worry, we'll go through them one by one, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied." Lin Han smiled and patted Xu Ming's shoulder, his eyes full of doting. He looked around, finally locking his gaze on an antique food stall, where a pot of seemingly ordinary yet fragrant porridge was steaming.

"Look at that shop, it seems to be selling porridge, but it smells special. Let's go and try that first." Lin Han suggested. He knew very well that the key to delicious food is to savor it carefully, and a bowl of good porridge can often open up a new world of taste buds.

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and then gathered around the somewhat simple but clean and tidy wooden table. The stall owner was a kind and amiable woman. Upon seeing the customers, she immediately greeted them warmly and quickly served four bowls of steaming hot porridge.

"This is our store's signature dish - Jinnan Eight Treasure Porridge. It contains eight carefully selected ingredients and is simmered over a slow fire for several hours. It has a mellow flavor and is rich in nutrients. You will definitely like it." The aunt introduced with a smile.

The four of them picked up their spoons, gently scooped a spoonful of porridge into their mouths, and instantly, a warm and delicate flavor blossomed on their tongues. The rice grains in the porridge were soft and chewy, and the sweetness of the various ingredients intertwined to form an indescribable wonderful taste.

"Wow, this porridge is absolutely amazing!" Yang Siqi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Her eyes narrowed slightly with satisfaction, as if all her troubles disappeared with this bowl of porridge.

"Indeed, every bite is full of happiness." Lin Han couldn't help but nod in praise. He noticed that every grain of rice in the porridge had absorbed the soup, becoming plump and elastic. Behind this must be the stall owner's countless careful mixing and patient cooking.

Uncle Jiu and Xu Ming were also full of praise. The four of them ate and chatted, enjoying this rare leisure time. Surrounded by the bustling crowd and the constant hawking of vendors, but in this small space, they seemed to be in another world, accompanied only by delicious food and friendship.

However, at this moment, a loud noise came from not far away, breaking the silence.

I saw a burly middle-aged man with seven or eight gangster-like men walking towards this side aggressively. They had malicious smiles on their faces and their eyes wandered around the snack stalls, as if looking for something.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" The middle-aged man rudely pushed aside the pedestrians around him, his voice so loud that everyone around him looked at him sideways. His target seemed clear. He walked straight towards an old man selling candied haws, snatched the candied haws from his hand, threw it to the ground, and stomped on it viciously.

"Old man, you dare to sell candied haws in my territory without saying hello. Are you tired of living?" The middle-aged man glared at the old man fiercely, his tone full of threats and disdain.

"You...how could you do this? This is our livelihood!" The old man's voice trembled, his eyes full of confusion and fear. He bent down and tried to pick up the candied haws scattered on the ground, but was kicked to the ground by one of the gangsters. He covered his chest with his hands in pain and his face turned pale.

"You are going too far to bully such a weak old man!"

"It's obvious that this old man is very poor, and you still bully him like this. How shameless!"

"Yes, yes, this is too much. Is there any law?"

Seeing this, the diners and stall owners around were filled with indignation, and their accusations continued one after another, forming a force for justice that could not be ignored.

"Zhuo, you all are getting cocky and want to be the first to do something, right? Let me tell you, in this area, I, Huang Tianhu, am the law! Whoever dares to meddle in other people's business, don't blame me for being rude!" The middle-aged man looked around viciously. It was obvious that he didn't care about the accusations of the crowd. Instead, he became more arrogant.

"Humph, Huang Tianhu, huh? I, your Grandpa Ming, will be the first to speak out!" Seeing this, Xu Ming could no longer suppress his anger. He stood up suddenly and strode towards Huang Tianhu and his group. His eyes were firm and sharp, like a sword about to be unsheathed, piercing the other party's mind.

"Damn it, you little bastard, you are a wild onion from that wasteland, and you dare to challenge our Master Tiger!" Seeing this, a gangster immediately stepped forward and shouted at Xu Ming, waving the stick in the air, looking extremely arrogant.

Snapped--!

As the thug finished speaking, a sudden, crisp slap resounded through the crowd, leaving everyone stunned. Xu Ming flashed in front of the thug, his movements as swift as a ghost. With a backhanded slap, he mercilessly slapped the thug's face with such force that the thug stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.

"You...you dare to hit me!" The gangster covered his face and looked at Xu Ming in disbelief, his eyes full of shock and anger.

"I'm going to hit you. It's your fault for speaking dirty words. You deserve a beating!" Xu Ming snorted coldly, and thought to himself: Hehe, the 'Thunder Body' taught by the boss is really powerful. I feel that my whole body is full of strength. It's a good opportunity to teach these ruffians a lesson!

"Wow, Xiao Mingzi, I didn't realize you are so manly and righteous today!" At this time, Yang Siqi came over and looked at Xu Ming with admiration, with little stars twinkling in her eyes.
