Moh Li had also returned, as if everything was about to be resolved soon. Bai Zhi drank the herbal dicine and instantly recovered significantly, but it was unclear if there would be any side effects.
Knowing she had fully recovered, they began treating the others.
Similarly, only when Bai Zhi was completely well did they realize that soone in the village had ventured to the back mountain and got lost.
When Bai Ming found them, it was with a look of indifference. They didn’t seem to think they were at fault at all.
"Village chief, our family mbers went to the back mountain to gather herbs. But now we find out that there’s sothing strange at the back. Don’t you need to investigate?"
Bai Ming had already discovered that these people were actually Han Sheng’s n, but there was no evidence, so they couldn’t justify taking action.
Shouldn’t there be a problem before you can directly capture them?
"Oh? When did they go, and about how many people? We should send people to look for them."
Bai Ming wasn’t nervous at all and spoke casually.
It genuinely seed like he was concerned for their safety and was prepared to send people to look.
"In your village, isn’t such a place a sign of ill intentions? We must call the police."
Seeing Bai Ming’s deanor, they hurriedly spoke up, thinking he was just a clan leader staying in such a place and probably understood nothing, so there was no need to worry.
"Oh? Sure, go ahead."
Bai Ming was taken aback, then smiled, nodding with anticipation. Such arrogance.
Bai Ming was naturally looking forward to it. The areas of the back mountain that could be accessed were already contracted out to Bai Zhi and Bai Xiang, with the rest taken by Old Han. But behind the na Old Han was the state. If they reported it, it was them who would be arrested.
They certainly wouldn’t actually call the police; they just wanted to scare Bai Ming. Their real intention was to have Bai Ming take them in, to destroy the formation.
"Well, since we are all from the sa village now, we naturally have to consider it. How about this, village chief, you tell us how to get in, and we’ll find our own people."
The leader spoke with a facade of understanding and righteousness.
"I don’t know either. We’ve never been there. Tell us how many there are, and we’ll go search together."
After Bai Zhi found out, she called Xu Yan, who took people through the secret path. Together with Bai Zhi, they went to catch the intruders.
They hadn’t even gone in yet, still at the most outer point of the blind eye technique, there were over ten of them, all ready to be apprehended.
anwhile, the herbs on them were directly used to bring them out of the forest.
Bai Zhi felt that everything seed too easy, with recent events happening. Every incident...
Whether it was the bug infestation or the earlier illness, it seed as if the people behind it were easily exposed, like they were offering themselves up.
Although the illness was tough, there was now a solution. If Great Grandpa hadn’t made a decisive decision, the village might have fallen by now.
When they, along with the police, brought the so-called missing person back, the leader was dumbfounded. What was going on?
He couldn’t seem to figure it out.
"You are suspected of stealing rare herbs from others; co with us."
They were taken away again.
Bai Ming watched the scene unfold and remained silent.
"Xingxing, what do you think?"
"Little actions continually arise, yet they’re easily resolved."
Bai Zhi thought about recent events and slowly began to speak.
"It’s called ’luring the tiger away from the mountain,’ though there was no action. Perhaps because he feels inadequately prepared, otherwise it wouldn’t be this easy. He’s already waited too long and wouldn’t allow any mistakes.
Han Feng’s side will also be closely monitored."
Xu Yan spoke up as well, now being able to openly claim he had nothing to do with Han Sheng. On the surface, they indeed had no connection.
He finally could return to living a normal life.
"I think each thing is not in the sa place, just like completing a puzzle."
Xu Yan had traveled to many places, discovering that the incidents were not without patterns. They just required diligent searching.
When you piece them together, they form a puzzle.
A puzzle that seems unrelated but can be connected.
One site might be useless, but when you connect all the locations together...
Those puzzle pieces turn into a complete image, a map, right?
And here, when they dig further, even if they can’t enter the formation, can Han Sheng see sothing from the puzzles?
Xu Yan’s words instantly made Bai Zhi and Moh Li understand, but precisely because of that, it beca even more alarming. Not a single person could escape.
Even across the mountain, it couldn’t be left unchecked. Despite the constant fog obscuring the back mountain, who could tell what might be discovered?
They absolutely couldn’t beco passive.
Those people were directly taken away by his action squad, followed by the special action group.
They would stay in the village to assist Bai Zhi. What Bai Zhi taught them couldn’t be understood in a day or two. If not for Bai Zhi, they would have perished in the Death Desert by now.
In reality, they find it difficult, because for a long ti, this departnt has been a mysterious entity, doing much to protect the dragon vein.
They could sense certain things, but for that reason, they couldn’t be publicly known.
They ca, but Bai Zhi didn’t plan on taking them up the mountain, at least not for now.
Bai Zhi didn’t fully trust them, even if they were brought by her grandfather.
Until half a month later, Bai Zhi finally brought them to the Blinding Array.
"Please keep guard here for . This is my Master’s Hundred Herbs Garden, and we can’t afford any carelessness."
The old master knew the importance of this place, as well as Bai Zhi. Many were secretly protecting Bai Zhi.
The number of people from their departnt increased, and this thatched hut and Hundred Herbs Garden beca their place of coexistence.
As the lunar April approached, everyone returned. Xu Yan and Han Feng ca to the thatched hut, while Bai Dan stayed at ho.
One month from now, it will be ti.
Han Sheng’s right-hand n had been taken down, and now he was like a stray dog. If caught, he would be imdiately sentenced.
But he was hiding well, they had searched for a long ti yet found no trace.
Or they hadn’t pulled out the roots yet. But the most critical place now was the Bai Family Village. Due to previous bombing incidents, there were also people protecting traditional villages. Simply put, all sorts of entities had arrived.
Waiting for that day to co, the once in a century total lunar eclipse.
