"Mom... have you and Dad finished taking care of everything?" she asked, looking at Haitang. Haitang nodded in response.
“Everything’s taken care of. Your father has found the enemy’s stronghold and is going to check it out now. As for me, your father was worried about me, so he sent me back first,” Haitang said. Dongfang Chen nodded when he heard this.
"Mom, when I grow up, I want to join you too. I will definitely make those turtle tribe people pay." The turtle tribe people were filled with hatred; everyone hated them to the core.
Upon hearing this, Haitang nodded and said, "Yes, when you grow up, you'll be a man who can protect us. Then your younger siblings will have to rely on you for protection." Haitang understood this clearly in her heart.
Dongfang Chen will grow up and become even more outstanding and excellent in the future. When Dongfang Chen heard this, he nodded and looked into the distance with a look of longing.
Haitang looked at all of this with a somewhat gratified smile. Dongfang Meng drank something and fell asleep after waking up, while Haitang began to organize some medicinal herbs.
While Haitang was organizing the medicinal herbs, Guyue and the others brought over their investigation data from the past few days. When they showed it to Haitang, she nodded, "Not bad, you've made great progress..."
"Yes, now that we've brought the herbs back, our research can proceed much more quickly." Because with the herbs back, the subsequent investigation will go much more smoothly.
While Haitang and the others were studying the herbs, Dongfang Long also began his own operation. After Haitang was sent back, Dongfang Long began to stake out the place mentioned by the rebels, not afraid that they were lying.
So they were interrogated separately from the beginning. Under these circumstances, with all sorts of tricks and methods, the five members of the racial insurgents said that their testimonies were the same. Of course, even so, further verification was still needed.
They checked to see if the details matched up. When Dongfang Long and the others arrived at the place where they were lying in wait, they saw that a hole had been dug in the ground not far away, and everyone lived inside.
This place is like a cellar. While inside the cellar, someone looked at Dongfang Long and said, "When those bird-beastmen take the things back, are we supposed to capture them on the way and interrogate them?"
"No need." Dongfang Long smiled and said when he heard this. "I have made preparations." The others nodded in agreement, showing a certain degree of trust in Dongfang Long.
"What about these Ren Zhongguo people? Should we kill them all?" Someone asked, looking at the people being tortured not far away. Upon hearing this, the people immediately showed some fear, although some of them remained defiant.
"You scum, so what if you kill us? One day you'll get your retribution, you'll become beasts, utter beasts." He said, looking at Dongfang Long and the others.
Dongfang Long and the others ignored these people. They figured it was better to take action than to waste time arguing with them. Dongfang Long had always been a man who preferred to put his words into action.
Two days later, Dongfang Long waited there until the delivery time arrived. At this moment, Dongfang Long stepped forward. His aura was well concealed, and no one could tell whether he was a beastman or not.
"Why is it you? Where are the others?" The person who came frowned when he saw the Eastern Dragon. There was a bird-beastman and a human among the newcomers. Hearing this, the Eastern Dragon sighed.
"We encountered wild beasts and were almost wiped out, leaving only me and some beast slaves." As he spoke, he pointed to a spot not far away. The people who arrived quickly looked at the spot and saw that the beast slaves were all badly injured and lying in various positions.
"I see." The man then began to examine the herbs. While he was examining the herbs, Dongfang Long followed suit without saying a word. The man nodded when he saw the herbs.
"No mistakes, this time the harvest was good." Yuehui couldn't help but be happy as she looked at the herbs.
He was about to leave when he looked at Dongfang Long and asked, "Is there something you need?"
"I want to go with you. You know we suffered heavy losses this time, so many people... I want some new medicine." He looked at Yuehui and said, and Yuehui frowned when she heard this.
“Alright.” Dongfang Long was not refused. In fact, they could bring one person with them this time. Moreover, these people had done a good job in collecting herbs. Although they lost a lot of people this time, with the beast slaves around, they could go to collect herbs again next time.
"But only you, not the beast slaves." There's no trust in beast slaves; even this bird-beastman who came to haul goods is under the influence of drugs. "And then there's you taking this."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Long glanced at the pill in the other person's hand, nodded without hesitation, swallowed it, and then looked at the beast slaves not far away. "You'll return to the base and come pick me up in a few days. Oh, and we'll go ask for a few more days..."
"It will take about four days to go back and forth." Yuehui said when she heard this. Dongfanglong nodded and looked at the beast slaves not far away.
The beast slaves nodded one by one, then transformed into their beast forms and left. Dongfang Long sat down in the basket, hungry. The basket that the bird-beastman was pulling was actually woven from vines and wood, and it looked quite sturdy.
