"No, no." The bearded man avoided his gaze, pushed him away and continued running.
Skinny Bamboo continued to chase him and finally caught up with him again.
"Don't run away, Brother Li. You don't have to give me the elixir, but I want to know where you got it. Does it really work? Are you kidding me?"
"Why would I lie to you? Of course it works!" The bearded man stopped running and looked left and right cautiously. Seeing that there was no one around, he carefully took out a bottle of potion.

The bearded man's eyes were red with anger: "You bandits, return my potion to me!"
The leader said, "Stop talking nonsense and fight!"
Yun Yuan huddled in the corner, watching those people beat up a puppet, and looked at Jiuli beside her with admiration.
"You got away just in time. If you were any slower you would have been beaten."
Jiuli showed a confident smile on her face, as if everything was under control, and said: "Your husband has illusion magic, it's not that easy to beat me."
