Chapter 899 The Consequences of Being Too Arrogant

Cheng Yanming never dreamed that this mission would go so smoothly. It was like they were just picking people up, without any effort or brainpower required!

He was overjoyed!

All his worries and schemes along the way were completely useless!

It looks so real it's almost unbelievable!

As expected, today is a good day for traveling far and doing great things!

Look at them, all so drowsy. I thought it was nighttime. When I was rummaging through them, they were muttering, "Don't disturb their sleep!"

I don't know how Old Xu and the others managed to do it. There are so many people in such a big place. Who has the ability to spray medicine all at once?

That's impossible!

The bandits were very vigilant. Those who made a living in this line of work were all formidable. They were all sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and could be startled at the slightest disturbance. That's why it seemed unbelievable.

If someone were to spread the powder, even the most skilled martial artist would eventually be discovered. Once discovered, these people would quickly send a signal, and the other accomplices would know. There's no reason for them all to be confused at the same time!

That would require an incredibly talented person to do!

He absolutely had to find this person and get to know them; he loved people like that the most!

Just thinking about it gets my blood pumping; I almost wanted to go back and find it myself.

I finally managed to calm my racing heart and focus on the task at hand.

The gang leader was dragged over, and he kept denying it, saying that he knew nothing and was just a lowly henchman, meaning that he hadn't done anything wrong!

But nobody believed him, and nobody had time to pay attention to him!

The reason the thief leader was so stubborn was because his men were all confused. He thought this was an opportunity to lower their guard and then find a chance to escape in the chaos!

Unfortunately, just because no one paid attention to him doesn't mean no one was watching him!

Later, a less confused thief saw the leader of the thieves and, out of habit, blurted out, "Greetings, Boss!"

That's it, it's confirmed!

He even called himself a nobody, how insignificant!

Cheng Yanming looked at him with a half-smile, waiting to see how he would try to argue.

The gang leader still refused to admit it and immediately denied it shamelessly, saying with a grin, "Tsk, this guy is really loyal to the boss. He's still thinking about it in his sleep! His eyes are so blurry he can barely keep them open, and his head is all fuzzy. He just shouts at everyone he sees! He tried it before, when he was drunk, he hugged an old woman and called her 'wife'! And he even said he wasn't drunk!"

He even laughed as he spoke.

But Cheng Yanming didn't find it funny at all. This person was cunning, had an unusually thick skin, and was very good at pretending!

The thief leader scoffed inwardly, "Without some skill, how could he hold onto his position as the leader?"

Dark, thick-skinned, ruthless—you have to be proficient in all of those!

Otherwise, how could you possibly make a living?

He doesn't care what others say; whatever he believes is feasible, he'll stick to doing it!

He was never a good person to begin with, and he never intended to portray himself as one. He felt no guilt whatsoever. He would do anything to get what he wanted!

But he is different from the other leaders. He lives a very casual life and often does things unpredictably. No one can fathom his inner thoughts, so no one can know his true ideas. It's not so easy to deal with him!

Cheng Yanming was also impressed by this person. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Were you also poisoned?"

Otherwise, where would they be so docile?

This person is quite strong. To defeat him, we need to catch him off guard and deliver a sudden, heavy blow, catching him off guard. We also need to give him some minor surprises, otherwise it will be difficult to catch him!

The gang leader raised his head and didn't answer. He wasn't surprised; wasn't this something anyone with a little thought could figure out?

If he hadn't been held back, he would have disappeared long ago. He wouldn't have had the time to spend with wave after wave of people.

Do you really think he just enjoys traveling and wandering around?

Cheng Yanming understood. Judging from his arrogant and domineering attitude, he must have been poisoned. And yet he was still so vicious and proud!

Haha, to be defeated by a bunch of ordinary people, I'm not ashamed to say it out loud!

He must be too arrogant and conceited, thinking that he is the king of heaven, and he is used to acting like a tyrant and doing whatever he wants!

I thought it would be easy to handle, but I ran into a brick wall!

Serves you right!

Arrogance brings disaster!

You don't even understand this!

See, someone's come to clean it up!

And there's more than one wave!

Still showing off?

But who made this medicine?

That's amazing!

Could it be a miracle doctor?

It doesn't seem impossible!

In any case, anyone who possesses this medicine and can administer it successfully is no ordinary person!

I need to have a good chat with that old man later. It seems I've been keeping a lot of good news from him since we last met!

That's really unfair!

Su Nanxi watched them leave, then called the others and prepared to set off!

What kind of people do what kind of things, and how they do it, is their business, and it has nothing to do with us ordinary folks!

They just want to find a good place to survive, and then slowly work towards development.

"Forget about what just happened! We didn't see anything or meet anyone! If you want to live a better life, don't meddle in other people's business. Don't be curious about things that aren't your concern! Curiosity can kill you!"

Su Nanxi didn't forget to issue a warning.

Everyone nodded and shouted, "Yes! We understand!"

After walking for a while, someone ran up to the village chief and said that they had found a stranger in the group!

Su Nanxi and Mo Qinghe exchanged a glance. Both of them remained calm because they knew the truth and therefore did not react much.

The village chief didn't notice that he was old and tired from walking, stopping and sitting. He had emphasized before that each family member should manage their own family members, count the number of people, and check with each other to see if anyone was missing.

As we walked along, everyone got used to it and stopped looking around, especially those at the back. If you walked slowly, you would fall behind. There was no rule that anyone was in a particular position.

Fu Mingchuan wasn't always at the back. After walking for so long, a fixed pattern had formed. If anything happened, he would shout, and the people in front would stop and look. So Fu Mingchuan went to the front.

When everyone was in a panic, they didn't care about anything else, but once they calmed down, they realized what was going on!

Although there were people from other villages, we had gotten to know each other well after traveling together for so long. There was no one we didn't know, so strangers were easily recognized!

Upon hearing this, the village chief's heart skipped a beat. What was going on?

Could it be that some terrorists have infiltrated?

This is terrible!

Things are really not peaceful these days; there's never a moment when things just stop happening!

Let's hope nothing serious happens again!

The team was forced to pull over and stop.

"Who exactly are you people? Why have you infiltrated our ranks?"

The village chief looked at the group of people in front of him and asked seriously, "These people are dressed and dressed just like us!"

But they don't seem to be on the same level as them!

"We meant no harm; it was a last resort. We are very sorry!"
