Bai Hu looked at the direction where Mu Nanjin left, patted his chest and said, "Almost, almost got seen by my mother."

Chaos raised his chin with pride, "If I hadn't been quick and hidden, we would have been discovered by Mother."

Bai Hu snorted: "It should be thanks to Bai Ze's barrier, otherwise it would be useless no matter how fast you are."

If Bai Ze hadn't been smart enough to use his spiritual power to build a barrier to conceal their figures and breath, Mu Nanjin would definitely have discovered their traces.

At this time, someone tugged at Bai Ze's sleeve.

Bai Ze turned around and saw that it was Xuanwu, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xuanwu said nothing.

Bai Ze: “…”

Suddenly, Baihu cried out, "Where's Taotie? Where did Taotie go?"

Bai Ze and Hun Dun quickly looked around but did not see Taotie.

Hun Dun scratched his head and said, "Taotie must be hungry and went to steal food."

Baihu asked: "Should we go find him?"

"want."

As soon as Bai Ze finished speaking, he was picked up by Hun Dun and ran towards the road on the right.

However, the food stalls and restaurants along the way were very quiet, and no one was heard scolding anyone for stealing food.

Just as they were about to run out of the Five Cities, Xuanwu pointed in the opposite direction and said, "Taotie ran over there to steal food."

Bai Ze, Bai Hu: "..."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Hun Dun really wanted to throw Xuanwu to the ground and leave him there.

He turned and ran in the direction Xuanwu pointed.

Bai Hu pointed at Xuan Wu and asked Bai Ze, "Bai Ze, can you cure his slow speaking habit?"

Every time you speak so slowly it can really drive someone crazy.

Bai Ze nodded: "Okay."

Bai Hu's eyes lit up: "Really? Then you should ask him to speak faster."

"Well, if you speak slower than him you can make him speak faster than you."

White Tiger, Chaos, Black Tortoise: "..."

It's the same as saying nothing.

Not long after, they returned to their previous hiding place and ran in the direction pointed by Xuanwu. Then they heard food vendors talking about a child stealing food.

"That child should be from a wealthy family, but he ate my buns like a starving ghost. I don't know what his parents taught him."

Hearing this, Bai Ze said to Hun Dun, who was leading them across the roof, "Let's go down."

Chaos jumped under the house.

Bai Ze ran up to the vendor selling steamed buns and asked, "Uncle, is the child you just mentioned the little one with a high ponytail and a black robe?"

The vendor nodded: "Yes, that's him. Do you know him?"

Bai Ze asked again: "Which direction did he go?"

The vendor pointed to the street on the right: "He left that way."

Bai Ze took out a silver ingot of ten taels and placed it on the vendor's table: "Uncle, my brother has been hungry for several days and therefore stole your buns. Please forgive me. This is to compensate you for the buns."

The vendor felt embarrassed when he heard this: "No, no, he just ate a few buns, they are not worth much money."

Bai Ze simply put down the silver and left.

"Really, there's no need." The peddler wanted to chase him, but in the blink of an eye, Bai Ze disappeared.

Little did he know that this scene was seen clearly by a woman next to him.

She quickly caught up with Bai Ze from another path: "Young Master, please stay."

Bai Ze looked up at her: "What's the matter?"

Bai Ze's eyes swept across her face.

The woman suddenly felt as if she was seen through, and she felt inexplicably panicked.

But then she felt that she was being too suspicious. The other person was just a two or three-year-old kid. How could he possibly see through her thoughts?

Bai Ze didn't say anything.

Bai Hu and Hun Dun, who were following behind, pulled Xuan Wu over and ran over: "Bai Ze, have you found out where Tao Tie went?"

When the woman saw that they were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, her eyes lit up and she said, "I know where he is. I'll take you to find him."

Baihu readily agreed: "Okay, thank you, Auntie."

The woman smiled and said, "Come with me."

Baihu took Bai Ze's hand and walked with the woman into a small alley nearby, then after many twists and turns they arrived at a large courtyard.

There are many children living in it. Some of them are playing happily in the yard, while some are locked in the house, crying and clamoring for their parents.

The middle-aged man who was watching over the children playing saw the woman coming back and said happily, "Mother Wen, you're back."

When he saw that the other party brought back so many children, his smile became even bigger: "You have a good harvest today. You brought back so many children."

Wen Niang did not respond to the big man's words. She pointed to the room with the open door and said to Bai Ze and the others, "The brother you are looking for is inside."

"Really?" Baihu and Hun Dun happily pulled Bai Ze and Xuan Wu into the house: "Taotie."

Then, with a bang, the door was locked.

Baihu was puzzled: "Why is the door closed? Where is Taotie? He is not in the room."

Bai Ze said: "Compared to Xuanwu's slow temper, your brain should be treated more."

"Why?"

"Because it's stupid."

White Tiger: “…”

Bai Ze looked at Hun Dun: "You too."

chaos:"……"

Why was he being scolded too? Xuanwu looked at Bai Ze, then at the gate: "Let's go out now."

"No." Bai Ze walked to the bed and lay down: "After traveling for so many days, we should have a good rest."

Originally, at Chaos' speed, it would only take half a day to a day to fly from the capital to the five cities.

But they didn't know the way, so they didn't arrive in Wucheng until today.

Baihu asked: "Are we not looking for Taotie anymore?"

"Don't worry about him. In the mortal world, he is the only one who can bully others. No one can bully him. We can take a good rest before going to find him."

Baihu and Hun Dun were no longer in a hurry and followed Bai Ze to lie down on the bed.

Wen Niang and the middle-aged man outside the house heard how quiet the house was, and curiously poked a small hole in the door to peek in, only to see the four children lying on the bed and sleeping.

"These four children are so careless." Wen Niang has trafficked so many children, but this is the first time she has seen a child who is not crying or making a fuss.

The middle-aged man grinned: "Mrs. Wen, these four children are so beautiful, they will definitely sell for a good price."

"Sell?" Wen Niang rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't plan to sell them."

"Not selling them? Are we going to keep them?"

"Don't you see that the fabrics of their clothes are very expensive? Even if we sell all the children in the compound, we may not be able to buy one of their clothes. I think their family is very rich, so we need to find out who their parents are and then ask them for a ransom. It will definitely be much more than what we have earned before."

The middle-aged man smiled foolishly: "I will listen to Wen Niang."

When Wen Niang thought about becoming rich in the future, her face was filled with smiles.

While they were trying their best to trick Bai Ze and the others into talking, Elder Hong from the Qian Gang came to the Duwei Mansion with over one million taels of silver.
