"Faster, faster!"
"Isn't that Huwa from the neighboring village?"
"He's been drugged! Go boil some Licorice Water!"
When Li Yan drove the donkey cart back into the village, a large crowd of villagers immediately surrounded him. Those familiar with the ways of the martial world instantly saw that the children had been drugged.
Misty Sweat Drug was nothing unusual in the martial world. Gods and Immortals Drunk, Ya Bu Lu, and Mantuo Luo could all be refined into it. The flowers were gathered in the eighth month, combined with hemp flowers in the seventh month, dried in the shade, and ground into powder in equal portions.
The method of rescuing them was even simpler: boil a soup of Raw Licorice.
After drinking a bowl, all three children gradually awoke. Seeing the adults gathered around them, they were all bewildered, having no idea what had happened.
The father of one of the missing children hugged his son and wept tears of joy.
There was consolation and furious cursing from the surrounding villagers, and the scene descended into complete chaos.
Manager Wan wore a gloomy expression. After having people calm the villagers, he took several Craftsmen Sect Disciples and turned toward the stables.
The woman trafficker they had captured was being held there.
As for the peddler's corpse, Li Yan had already thrown it into the woods.
Li Yan, Sha LiFei, and Wang Daoyou exchanged glances before following closely behind.
Inside the stables, the woman had already been bound hand and foot.
People of the martial world often had one or two extraordinary tricks for escaping—for instance, dislocating their joints and collarbones, hiding blades beneath their tongues or in their hair, or inserting needles into their flesh.
Thus, even after searching her thoroughly, the Craftsmen Sect Disciples still did not feel safe.
