Cultivators' Brains Are All Broken!

Sure enough, Rogue Cultivator cultivators are all dim-witted.

Two figures lurking in the shadows watched Ye Jing and his servant with mocking expressions.

"How long do you think they can just stand there like that?" one of them asked.

"Who knows? People with such a simple mind are bound to do something. If I knew, wouldn't I be just as stupid as them?"

"Haha, that's true, a fool couldn't figure it out!"

"Hey, wait a minute, the idiot moved!"

At the government office gate, it was time for duty to end, and many officials and constables came out from the gate.

Li Donglin was among them; following Ye Jing's instructions, he went to work as usual today!

Although he had no desire to go to work, he could only grit his teeth and bear it.

But as soon as he stepped out the door, he saw Ye Jing and Qiuyue walking towards him, which startled him again.

How dare you do that right in front of the government office?

"Don't panic, Uncle Li, just react normally. I'll follow you to your house later!"

Ye Jing's voice echoed in my mind.

"It's you! Were you with them that day? Where's my purse? Give it back to me right now!"

Ye Jing suddenly grabbed Li Donglin's arm, like someone demanding a debt!

"Ah, let me go! I didn't know! I didn't take your purse!" Li Donglin wasn't stupid; he understood Ye Jing's plan.

"I don't care, you took my purse, give the money back right now!" Ye Jing grabbed Li Donglin's arm relentlessly.

"It was Captain Gao, not me, who took your purse, young man," Li Donglin said helplessly. "He's already been fired, and you probably won't get your purse back!"

"Ah, that's my travel money to get home. Do you know where he lives? I need to go find him," Ye Jing continued to ask.

"I don't know, I have no connection with Captain Gao!" Li Donglin shook his head. He was telling the truth; because he refused to accept those dirty bribes, he and Captain Gao were never on the same side.

"What should we do then!" Ye Jing looked at the others with a desperate expression.

Fearing trouble would come their way, the others quickly left!

"Young man, you'd better watch yourself!" Li Donglin pulled Ye Jing's hand away and walked towards home.

"No, no, my money!" Ye Jing stood there, stunned, tears streaming down her face in despair.

"Young Master, what should we do? We can't go back!" Qiuyue chimed in perfectly, her eyes also brimming with tears.

After crying for a while, Ye Jing suddenly said with a ferocious expression:

"No, we have to get some money back. They're in cahoots, they should pay us back!"

Then they immediately went after Li Donglin, and Qiuyue followed immediately!

The two figures in the shadows almost burst out laughing again.

"This is hilarious! Crying over something so trivial, how shameless!"

"That's Rogue Cultivator. Maybe the money in that purse is money he painstakingly saved up. That's how Rogue Cultivator are."

Should we tell the adults about this?

"No need, haven't these two already cleared themselves of suspicion? If we bother the adults again, we'll probably get scolded again!"

"That's right, we should just follow them!"

"Hey, I told you, I'm not the one taking your money, so don't follow me!"

Li Donglin noticed that Ye Jing was following him, so he sped up his run and shouted back.

It seemed like it was being spoken to Ye Jing, but it was actually being spoken to the guards in the shadows.

"I don't care, you have to compensate me some money. You're in cahoots with them, you're also responsible!" Ye Jing shouted back.

"You can't be so unreasonable! I haven't taken a single penny of your money!"

"I don't care!"

"Hey, you little rascal!"

The two chased each other, much to the amusement of the two guards secretly watching!

Their surveillance work was already quite mundane and boring, so witnessing such a dramatic scene was rather amusing.

They chased him all the way home.

"Hey kid, stop! I'm home. Don't chase me anymore!" Li Donglin rushed into the house and slammed the gate shut.

"Open the door! You have to pay me back!" Ye Jing pounded on the door.

"No, I don't have any money. If I did, I'd definitely give it to you!" Li Donglin stood against the door, determined to go all the way with his act!

"Bang bang bang!"

Ye Jing pounded on the door!

"Open the door and pay up, or we're refusing to leave your doorstep."

After Ye Jing finished speaking, he sat down on the ground and began to wail loudly.

Qiuyue immediately imitated Ye Jing and started crying.

"That damned bastard stole my purse and won't give it back!"

"He's an official, how can he bully ordinary people like this?"

"We are two outsiders who came all this way to the Imperial Capital, hoping to see a big city, and we've been bullied like this!"

Li Donglin watched through the crack in the door as the two sat on the ground, wailing and crying, and felt utterly helpless.

However, he still insisted on blocking the door, preventing them from coming in.

Passersby were quite surprised to see this.

"This must be Officer Li's house, right? That's impossible! Officer Li isn't that kind of person!"

"You can know a person's face but not their heart. Don't be fooled by Officer Li's seemingly honest demeanor; he might be up to something underhanded."

"Really? I heard he sneaks out every night to meet with Widow Zhang over there!"

"My God? Is this real?"

"Otherwise what? Look, Officer Li took this child's money to support a widow!"

"That makes sense!"

Li Donglin: "..."

Li Donglin was speechless. What were these gossipy women talking about?!

He suddenly flung the door open.

"Alright, stop crying, come in!"

Ye Jing and Qiuyue's eyes lit up with joy.

"That's great, you're going to pay me back, right?" Ye Jing wiped away her tears and asked with a smile.

"What are you thinking? I'll only give you money to go home; it's because I'm kind-hearted!" Li Donglin said helplessly, then shouted at the women who had gathered to watch the commotion, "Alright, everyone disperse! Stop spouting nonsense!"

The onlookers reluctantly left!

Ye Jing and Qiuyue followed Li Donglin into the room.

In an instant, Ye Jing threw down an array plate. It was a top-tier array plate, not large in size, but just enough to cover Li Donglin's room.

The two figures in the shadows sighed, somewhat disappointed.

The farce is over now; they weren't quite done watching!

You don't usually encounter clowns like this.

"Oh, what a pity. If every day were like this, our work wouldn't be so boring!"

"Yeah, Li Donglin is really something, how could he compromise so quickly? Stealing a widow? That's hilarious, it must be that time he argued with his wife and got kicked out to sleep on the streets!"

"Haha, that's possible!"

The two bodyguards chatted back and forth.

"Hmm? Didn't that master and servant take a little too long inside?"

"That seems so. Giving them some money shouldn't take this long, right?"

The two guards exchanged a glance, both with a bad feeling in their hearts!

Oh no!

They flew swiftly towards Li Donglin's house!
