After leaving the tea shop, Zheng Laosan walked up to a little beggar with his face covered and threw a copper plate into the bowl.

The little beggar cheered up immediately after seeing it and raised his head to look at him.

Zheng Laosan did not speak, but glanced behind him, then turned directly into the alley.

The little beggar didn't ask any questions. After putting away the coins, he stood up and walked towards the three people who were laughing.

"You little beggar, get away from me. Can you afford to pay for staining my clothes?"

"Even if a beggar dares to come here, it's really unlucky. You should drive him away quickly."

When the three merchants saw the beggar suddenly running over, they all turned sideways with disgust on their faces.

The little beggar's eyes flickered, but he still showed a flattering expression, and said: "You three gentlemen, don't be surprised. Someone asked me to invite you over, saying that they want to discuss some fake wine."

The merchants were stunned, glanced around, and then asked in a low voice: "Does that person have a pair of eagle eyes? He looks a bit sinister."

"No, that's the man. He also said that you would reward me with silver." The little beggar raised the corners of his mouth and lowered his head.

The three of them looked at each other, and then one of the merchants took out a piece of silver and threw it on him and asked, "Where is that man now?"

"Thank you, uncle, for the reward. That man is in the alley ahead. Would you like me to take you there?" The little beggar's eyes shone as he looked at the broken silver and continued to compliment him.

"No, just go ahead and we'll go there by ourselves."

"Okay, little one, let's go now." The little beggar didn't want to stay here any longer, so he ran away with the bowl in his arms.

The three of them did not go over immediately, but stood there and discussed.

"Why do you think that person is looking for us now? Isn't it already a done deal?"

"What can you do? Something must have happened. You have to tell us what will happen tomorrow."

"Didn't he use torture today? Shouldn't he? Does he have that kind heart?"

"Why do you care so much? Just go and see if he has any orders."

……

After a discussion, the three of them confessed to the boy next to them, and then walked toward the alley uneasily.

At this time, Zheng Laosan was standing in the alley, wearing a black cloak that he had prepared long ago, with a black cloth still tied around his face.

The black figure was motionless, as if blending into the darkness, which made people feel panicked.

The three merchants pushed each other into the alley, looked at the dark figure standing in front of them, and asked cautiously: "Sir, what's the important thing you called us here for?"

Zheng Laosan clenched the medicine bag in his hand and did not dare to say a word. If they found out that his voice was wrong, he would be in trouble.

When the three of them saw that the black shadow was ignoring them, they got a little closer and continued to ask, "If you have anything to do, sir, just ask me. I will definitely be embarrassed."

Zheng Laosan listened to the footsteps behind him, calculated the distance, and then combined the two packets of powder in his hands into one packet. After all, there were three people, so it was better to be safe.

Seeing that the people in front of them remained silent, the three merchants began to feel anxious. They wanted to see them if they had something to do, but they didn't ask them. What did this mean?

Zheng Laosan took a deep breath, prepared a cotton cloth to cover his mouth and nose, then quietly took a step back, then immediately turned around, took a big step forward, and sprinkled the powder in his hand.

The three of them didn't have time to react. They rolled their eyes and fell straight to the ground.

The effect of this medicine is too strong...

Zheng Laosan was so frightened that he took a few steps back and did not dare to step forward immediately to check the status of the three of them.

After making sure there was no one nearby, he took off his black cloak and covered the heads of the three people. Then he led the carriage over and then called Father Zheng and others.

"Are these three guys? They didn't wake up in the middle, right?" Father Zheng asked while holding Jin Bao and looking at the three people lying on the ground.

"It's them. I'm worried that they won't wake up later. Didn't you see what happened just now? They fell down as soon as I sprinkled the powder." Zheng Laosan casually kicked the person on the ground.

"Take it away first. It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. We can wait until we get to the mountain to talk about anything." Father Zheng said.

Zheng Laosan nodded, and then he and Zheng Gentian carried the three people on the ground into the carriage.

Later, Zheng Laosan drove the carriage ahead.

Zheng Gentian followed behind in a carriage. Jinbao was full of energy in the arms of Father Zheng, and did not look sleepy at all.

The carriage quickly drove to the foot of the mountain. Although the mountain was not as high as Longyan Mountain, it was also very steep and the carriage could not go up at all.

So Zheng Gentian and Zheng Laosan carried them halfway up the mountain.

"What should I do if this person doesn't wake up? He won't sleep until tomorrow morning, right?" Zheng Laosan slapped the faces of the three people on the ground, but there was no response.

"Third uncle, don't be anxious. The old god has prepared the antidote. I'll look for it." As he said that, Jin Bao rummaged in his pocket.

"I found it. This is it. If you eat it, you will wake up."

Jin Bao held up a small porcelain bottle and handed it over.

Zheng Laosan opened the porcelain bottle and looked at it by the light of the lantern. There were small pills inside.

This thing is much more precious than medicinal powder. I really don’t want to waste it on them.

Without thinking and having no other choice, he endured the pain and poured out three pills, stuffed them into their mouths, and then returned the small porcelain bottle to Jin Bao.

After a while, the three of them rubbed their dizzy heads and slowly opened their eyes.

"Where is this? Why is it so dark?"

"Ouch, why does my butt hurt so much? Did you kick me?"

"We don't have that much effort to kill me..."

When they sat up, they could clearly see where they were and the people in front of them.

"Who are you? Where is this?"

Father Zheng and the others ignored him, but patted Xiao Xiaobai on the head.

"Ouch~"

Xiao Xiaobai raised his head and howled.

As soon as the cry ended, the forest began to respond one after another, all of which were the howls of wolves. Although there were not many in number, there should be at least a dozen of them.

Hearing the howls of wolves, the three merchants were frightened.

After reacting, he got up and prepared to run, "Help, there is a wolf, the wolf is going to eat people!"

Zheng Laosan never gave him a chance to run away, so he kicked him to the ground.

The other two people knew they couldn't run away and no longer tried in vain, so they squatted on the ground holding their heads and burying their heads in their knees.

"Masters, if you have something to say, just tell us what you want. As long as we have it, we can give it to you."

The three of them thought they were robbers and began to use their words to lure them.

"We want your lives, will you give them?" Zheng Laosan lowered his voice and began to scare them.

"Sir, please forgive me. We have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old son. We cannot die here!"

The three of them were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and began to beg for mercy.
