Babu opened his mouth, "...Battalion Commander."
Hua Ansu said, "He's awake."
Babu looked down, and Ruan Geng indeed slowly woke up.
Ruan Geng, who had just woken up, was still a little out of sorts, his eyes slightly glazed. The girl's cool voice instantly brought him back to his senses, reminding him of what had just happened.
"Awake? If you're awake, let's talk."
Before Ruan Geng could even clench his teeth in anger, Hua Ansu snapped her fingers, and the team members brought over two chairs. She sat down and gestured for Ruan Geng to sit as well, saying, "Don't faint again, I don't have any more injections for you."
She didn't have many silver needles, and she used them all up today.
Ruan Geng was helped to sit down by Babu. He was reluctant, but Babu used a little trick, and he plopped down. It was indeed comfortable, and he was too lazy to get up, but—
He glared at him, his beard bristling, "You want to give me an injection? Do you think my old bones can take this kind of abuse?"
Hua Ansu, “…” Stupid, she was talking about silver needles.
Someone shouted, "Hua Ansu, Old Man Ruan is getting on in years, don't do what you did to Meng Tongzheng!"
Hua Ansu's gaze locked onto the man with precision. "Reckless behavior?"
She smiled, but it was a cold smile. "First of all, you need to understand, given my status and Ruan Geng's status, do you have any right to interrupt?"
She was a vice minister, and Ruan Geng was also highly respected.
The person said, "You..."
He shut his mouth under Babu's cold gaze. The captain and his men of the Hua Deputy Battalion were all quite frightening today!
"Ruan Geng, why did you wake up so quickly after you just fainted?"
Ruan Geng's eyes flickered. He seemed to feel a stinging pain in his nose. Was it this brat who did it?
Hua Ansu continued, "Do you think I'd be so eager to get involved in your mess?"
"If it weren't for the fact that the minister and his wife took such good care of me when I was down on my luck..." She paused, "and that when we were struggling to make ends meet, Aunt Li gave me steamed buns, Uncle Zhang gave me half a pound of wormwood rice... and that kids like Er Gou and Hu Zi sweetly called me 'sister'."
She stopped, staring at Ruan Geng, one side of her lips slightly raised, a cold glint in her eyes, "Otherwise, for your disrespect towards me, you'll be facing your ancestors countless times."
The first part of what he said was tolerable, but the last sentence made Ruan Geng so angry he almost vomited blood: "You—dare!"
"Of course I dare!"
After Hua Ansu finished speaking, he put his hand to his mouth and whistled. The long whistle made people cover their ears, and when they looked up again, the earth was shaking.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Was there an earthquake?
Babu clenched his fists. This was...
Soon, a colossal creature came into everyone's view.
Oh my god!
What kind of creature was that? It was much taller than an adult male, ridiculously huge, with eyes that looked like it wanted to devour people, a gaping maw, and sharp fangs...
Aaaaaah!!!
These are beasts from the Demon Forest! What are they doing here?
Doesn't the tribe have a protective shield?!
Many people stared blankly as the beast approached, their bodies trembling with tension. For a moment, they forgot to run away. It wasn't that they didn't want to run, but their brains told them to run while their bodies were paralyzed with fear.
As the wild beast drew closer, someone finally shouted, "Babu, Babu, chase it away!"
"Babu, you are a warrior of the tribe, drive it away!"
Babu looked at the beast with a serious and earnest expression. It was a liger, but much larger and more powerful than the one Miss Hua had captured before. Yet, it had only appeared because Miss Hua had whistled...
