Standing there, Jian Dan was still thinking about how to deal with this person. Although there was a high chance that he was not a good person, it didn't seem right for her to deal with him this way. After all, she was no longer the young lady of the Jian family in the underworld and did not have the right to kill or plunder.
Just then, shouts came from below.
"Jian Zhiqing, Jian Zhiqing, have you come back?"
"Why don't we go up and see if she's gone far away?"
"Probably not? Jian Zhiqing even warned us that there's danger up there."
Danger?
With a simple thought, before he could even begin to consider what to do, he decided to just pass it on to someone else.
He immediately threw the person out of the space, didn't give them the antidote, and dragged them down by the collar, responding all the while.
"I'm here, I'll be down in a minute."
The mountain path was uneven to begin with, and dragging someone along was inconvenient. With the collar in Jian Dan's hand, and Jian Dan only looking up at the road ahead, the person was dragged along the ground the whole way. Stones, branches, bricks, bowls and chopsticks were thrown at him without any regard for anything else, and he managed to wake up this person who had been drugged.
As Jian Dan was walking, he heard a sound coming from under his feet.
"Where are you taking me?"
Staggering and stumbling, he almost lost his life after saying just one sentence.
It was surprisingly simple.
"Wow, you woke up so quickly? That's impressive."
He deliberately stepped on a tree root that was sticking out of the ground, and then heard a muffled groan as he wished. He simply smiled with pleasure.
Indeed, seeing others suffer is the greatest pleasure.
Seeing Jian Dan dragging a heavy object over, the group looked at each other in surprise. Their first thought was, "Has Jian Dan, the educated youth, hunted a wild boar again?"
Li Yan was somewhat familiar with Lin Zhaodi, so she went over and looked her up and down.
"Why did you go into the deep mountains again? You just hunted so many wild boars and got so much pork. Why are you hunting wild boars again?"
"Did you mail them all out? Are you running out of meat? I'll send you some when I get back."
They didn't even notice the strange looks in the eyes of Tan Yajun and Chen Jianguo, who were a few steps behind them.
"Jian Zhiqing, Jian Zhiqing? Go back quickly, lest you attract other wild beasts."
Chen Jianguo and Tan Yajun laughed first.
“Li Zhiqing, well, 'wild boar' probably won’t attract any wild animals. He doesn’t have that kind of ability.”
Li Yan was taken aback. Lin Zhaodi peeked behind Jian Dan to see what was going on.
"Huh, it's a person?"
"Huh? Isn't it a wild boar?"
Li Yan hadn't expected to make such a blunder, and in a fit of rage, she went over and kicked him a few more times.
"Did this person do something bad?"
"He attacked me from behind, but luckily I dodged it."
Upon hearing this, Li Yan turned around and kicked him a few more times.
This person was afraid of simple things, but not of others. Even in his current disheveled state, he glared fiercely at Li Yan.
"You little bitch, you dare kick me? You wait, wait for me, wait for me!"
With a simple exertion, his body slammed against the rock again, and the harsh words immediately vanished.
“Let’s go. I’ll take this person back to them. He was on the mountain when they were searching it. I don’t believe he’s alright.”
Upon hearing the words "search the mountain," the man struggled violently, knowing that if he were handed over to those people, he would surely die. So his hope lay in this stretch of road.
Simple doesn't care about any of that. If they whine and don't listen, just crash a few more times. Anyway, it's normal for mountain roads to be difficult to travel.
Even after reaching the foot of the mountain, the man still couldn't find a chance to escape.
Upon hearing this, Liu Weimin was completely bewildered. After guarding the mountain for so many days, there was still one who slipped through the net, and Little Jian had run into him again. He didn't know what to say.
He immediately sent his son out to deliver the message, and then hurriedly followed Chen Jianguo to the village entrance to meet the person.
The village has been quite chaotic these past few days, and Jian Dan doesn't want to bring any more people into the village. It could easily cause another wave of panic. There are plenty of firewood stacks and such at the village entrance, so let's just stay put.
Just in case, she drugged the person again, this time with double the dose.
I reckon he won't just shut up for now, even if he's taken away, he won't wake up anytime soon.
Liu Jianshe's journey there was slow, mainly due to the inadequate transportation, but his return trip was quick.
Because they hadn't gone far at all, they were just outside the village, and they rushed over as soon as they heard the news.
Liu Weimin and Jian Dan were watching people at the village entrance when Lin Zhengde personally led his men over. After staring at the person on the ground for a few seconds, they kicked him twice.
Jian Dan immediately took a few steps back. Wow, this guy has taken a lot of kicks today. He's probably covered in footprints.
Liu Weimin's eyes widened as well. What kind of deep-seated hatred was this that led to a fight upon meeting?
The small team of people on the mountain also quickly came down.
"Commander, it's this kid. We thought he was still deep in the mountains. Who would have thought he'd come to the outskirts?"
Jian Dan was stunned.
"You're up in the mountains too?"
The main issue was that she didn't sense any other people's presence, and she didn't know if they had seen her put the person away, or even enter the cave.
The squad leader scratched his head sheepishly.
“We were deep in the mountains, and then we realized something was wrong and came down. We saw small spots of blood on the hillside, so we came down the mountain.”
Okay, that's simple and reassuring, it's safe.
Lin Zhengde planned to make a grand retreat, then secretly leave a pair of elites to continue the search. If the enemy lowered their guard, it would be easier for them to find the person.
Who would have thought that the acquaintance was found, but it was the educated youth who found them, and their people still followed the traces of the educated youth.
That's to say, how dramatic!
Lin Zhengde, his face ashen, led his men and those he had helped away. Only then did the educated youth have the mood to talk about the simple matter.
"Jian Zhiqing, you're incredibly audacious. That guy's a desperate criminal, isn't he?"
"Exactly, I know you're very capable, but you still have to be careful. Who knows what kind of weapons these people might be carrying? Ugh, just thinking about it makes me break out in a cold sweat."
I know everyone is concerned, so I didn't refuse and agreed to everything, but how I'll actually do it is another matter.
Today's main purpose was to collect firewood. Chen Jianguo and the others each collected at least two large bundles. They were all very happy, because more firewood meant they would be less cold. They were all excitedly talking about going again the next day.
As for Jian Su, the harvest consisted of a loosely packed basket of firewood, several boxes of unidentified quantity and type of items, and a suspected criminal.
Overall, it's pretty good.
So, she treated herself to dinner and cooked a pot of stewed pork ribs using the master chef's secret family recipe sauce. She also stuck a ring of flatbread around the edge of the pot, which is said to be a local favorite way to eat it, so she decided to give it a try.
However, in other people's homes, even a pot of cabbage soup or sauerkraut soup simmering in the bottom of the pot is delicious.
After all, what they cared about was that the flatbread on top was a staple food to stave off hunger.
People are simply trying to fill their stomachs, which is the opposite of what they need.
