Chapter 807: Chapter 736: I Don’t Hit Kids

The troublemaker still couldn’t figure out how he got exposed.

“How did you know?”

He had hidden himself so well, there was no way he could be discovered; aren’t all those kids just a bunch of criers anyway?

“Does it really matter? Knowing only makes you look more incompetent, doesn’t it?”

Bai Zhi burst out laughing. Sometimes, the correct answer isn’t what everyone wants to know.

“I want to know.” Saying it’s because he didn’t eat candy, that reason’s garbage; he couldn’t accept it.

Zhang Chen, a 26-year-old man, but due to illness, his height and appearance are stuck at six years old.

When he was young, others said drinking milk could make him taller, so he drank it non-stop; they said jumping could make him taller, so he jumped like crazy.

But reality told him that no method worked — he would never grow tall. Others envied him for seemingly never aging.

But it’s nothing more than an illness; he wanted to grow old.

He also wanted to be like ordinary people, grow taller, grow old.

Because of his height, he had been a child for 26 years; he couldn’t believe there would be a flaw.

Because not just anyone could enter here. Around the straw hut, there are so many formations. Saying it was a mistake to stumble in, that’s too coincidental. She didn’t believe it. But how could she tell this to Zhang Chen?

“Because I’m smart, and you’re dumb.”

Zhang Chen: “…”

“Are you going to tell the truth or not? If you don’t, I’m going to have to use torture.”

Bai Zhi pointed toward the straw hut, scaring him like you would a child. Captain Hann, the person in charge, knew that there was none of that here.

“Fine, I couldn’t be happier. Many people should already know I’m missing, right? If I’m covered in injuries, even better. You must not hold back,”

Zhang Chen acted like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water. He wasn’t afraid of being hit; he even hoped to be hit so their people could come here as a matter of course. Then they could check this place thoroughly.

They had thought of many ways, but all failed; it had to be him this time for it to succeed.

As a child on the surface, being able to achieve this step, of course, he wasn’t clueless. On the contrary, he’d experienced a lot, so what’s to be afraid of with this.

“What are you talking about? How could a cute little girl like me possibly hit someone? Don’t wrongly accuse me, I’m telling you.”

Bai Zhi pouted, glaring angrily at the person in front of her.

Captain Hann: “???”

“I’ll treat you to something yummy,”

Bai Zhi took out a pill from her bag, “Have some candy.”

Zhang Chen: “…”

“You think I’m stupid? This can’t possibly be candy.”

After speaking, he shut his mouth tightly, unwilling to say anything,

Bai Zhi wasn’t surprised, took a step forward, and with a swift move, dislocated his jaw, decisively pushing the pill into his mouth.

Without any hesitation.

Then reattached his jaw, afterwards looking disgustedly at her hand.

“Ugh. My hand’s dirty. In that case, I’ll beat you up some more. Normally, I’d feel embarrassed to hit a child, but with this one, there’s no burden.”

Captain Hann: “…” Do as you please.

Bai Zhi walked over directly, starting to punch and kick Zhang Chen fiercely.

Just when she wanted to add a few more kicks, Captain Hann spoke up.

“That’s enough now, if it’s too severe, it’ll be hard to explain. After all, we still have to get him off the mountain.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi waved her hand nonchalantly, “No problem, I’ve got medicine here; I promise you won’t see a thing. Now, when I ask you something, you answer it, understand?”

Bai Zhi looked at the little brat in front of her, and the little brat nodded.

That’s much more obedient, isn’t it?

“What did Han Sheng send you here for?”

No need to ask who’s behind this, it’s Han Sheng.

“I’ve come to find the secret of the formation, to find the way to that mysterious land,”

“How did you break the formation?”

Bai Zhi didn’t think the formation set up by the master could be so easily broken by just anyone coming along.

“I have a little snake; I can’t break the formation, but it finds the right path. Even Han Sheng doesn’t know; this is my trump card,”

Zhang Chen was really answering whatever was asked; actually, he was very reluctant in his heart. No matter how he resisted inside, his mouth just wouldn’t stop blurting out words he didn’t want to say. He couldn’t control his mouth or his mind, which made him deeply fearful.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi frowned and looked around.

“Where is it?”

Bai Zhi didn’t expect this to be the reason.

“It’s on my hand.”

Zhang Chen extended his hand where there was a jade-green bracelet, upon closer inspection, it wasn’t a bracelet; it was a snake.

“Will it attack people?”

Bai Zhi’s hand was already touching the Golden Needle; if it would, she’d release it immediately.

“No, this is my biggest trump card, I wouldn’t easily reveal it.”

He looked at Bai Zhi in horror, wanting to cover his mouth and say nothing more, but he couldn’t move, watching helplessly as they captured Xiao Lv.

“You can go back; you know nothing. You didn’t find the place, then people from the mountain discovered it, got it?”

Before Zhang Chen could answer, he was hit on the head with a stick until he passed out. Only then did Bai Zhi apply some medicine to him, instructing someone to escort him down the mountain.

There was no choice but to send him back. Now their village is a tourist zone, so many people are watching; for the sake of the tourist zone, they had to send the person back.

If he was caught at the tourist site, regardless of the reason, it would affect the village, and besides, this matter mustn’t become public knowledge; that’s the most crucial point.

Therefore, waiting for them to leave here was the best solution. Bai Zhi thought for a moment and then directly placed some herbs in Zhang Chen’s bag.

Once they reached the foot of the mountain, the woman looked at Zhang Chen’s condition, thinking he had succeeded,

In reality, she knew nothing at all. Zhang Chen was indeed her child, but someone offered two thousand, saying that as long as she helped claim Zhang Chen was lost, it would suffice,

Earning money, and quite a lot, why wouldn’t she agree?

So she agreed right away; now the money was in, and the child was back.

Zhang Chen had always been a child, unable to work, merely a burden; honestly, it was better off without him. Still, since it was bringing in money now, she didn’t mind taking care of him a bit longer.

“Your tourist zone’s oversight is lax. My son suffered, you must compensate,”

Bai Xiang directly presented the surveillance footage. “You’ve already left the tourist zone but went up the mountain without permission; that’s not the tourist area. The people at the Hundred Herbs Garden behind the mountain are worried you may go there to steal herbs.”

Captain Hann appeared, “This is your son’s bag, but we found our herbs in it; he’s suspected of stealing herbs. We’ve already called the police. Please cooperate with the investigation; we have surveillance footage,”

There’s no surveillance footage, but they needed a reason to take them away.
