“Try to treat yourself better. These are not long-term solutions. Let’s go to your house first.”
Jiang Ming felt bad and helped the owner push the cart.
The owner immediately said, “No need, no need. I can push it myself. I don’t need to trouble you.”
Then, he lifted the cart and walked toward his home.
He said to Jiang Ming while carrying the cart, “Lord Ning Caichen, you don’t have to help me with anything. Although I’m wearing tattered clothes, I’ve never been unhappy. Instead, I’ve always been looking forward to waking up every morning and seizing the day.”
Jiang Ming was stunned. He followed the owner and then could not help but look at the owner.
This was the first time he had seen someone who lived such a hard life yet was so optimistic. He should learn from him.
Zhu Asi’s voice sounded behind them.
“Ning Caichen, Ning Caichen! Wait for me!”
The owner stopped, and so did Jiang Ming. Both of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at Zhu Asi behind them.
Zhu Asi was wearing a garland on his head and a mask on his face, but he was still recognizable.
The owner felt that he would embarrass Jiang Ming by his side, so he deliberately lifted the cart and walked about a meter away from Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming noticed the owner’s actions and quickly said, “No, you don’t have to do that.”
Zhu Asi walked over, took off his mask, and said excitedly, “Ning Caichen, why don’t you go have fun? What are you wasting time for?”
Then, he took out a mask from his pocket. It was a fox mask.
He waved the mask in front of Jiang Ming and said excitedly, “I think this mask suits you. Do you want to try it on?”
“Let me see.”
Looking at the fox mask, Jiang Ming was interested. He took the mask and put it on his face.
The fox mask made Jiang Ming look very mysterious.
“Other people use masks to hide how ugly they are. However, this fox mask is shining brightly because of you.”
Zhu Asi could not help but sigh. His eyes sparkled.
After looking for a while, Zhu Asi suddenly noticed the shop owner beside Jiang Ming. He looked at the man strangely.
“Who are you? Why are you with Ning Caichen?”
He had a feeling that this shop owner had come here with a request. Otherwise, he would not have left the stall in a mess.
Zhu Asi secretly glanced at the stall and could not help but complain.
Ning Caichen was always troubled by random people.
“I want to go with this owner to save his son. Do you want to come with me?”
Seeing Zhu Asi asking, Jiang Ming answered him directly.
Zhu Asi felt helpless.
He knew that these people would not look for Ning Caichen for no reason!
Sensing Zhu Asi’s expression, the owner began to beg. “I beg you, please come and save my son. My son is not an adult yet. I don’t want him to be ruined by those people in the village at such a young age.”
“Alright, I’ll go with you.”
Seeing that the owner was so pitiful, Zhu Asi’s heart softened, and he simply agreed.
Then, Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi helped the owner push the stall to his house and followed the owner in the direction of the stockade.
However, when they were near the exit of the village, the owner could not find the exit no matter how hard he tried.
Seeing this, the owner suggested splitting up.
Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi were reluctant and tried to persuade the owner to think of something else.
Their logic was simple. If the owner was in danger, they would not be able to save him.
They were here to save people, not to let them die.
However, the owner was stubborn and insisted on separating from the two of them.
Seeing that the owner was so stubborn, Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi had no choice but to agree.
After they parted ways, Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi quickly found the exit.
There were a few people from the village guarding the exit.
Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi looked at each other and kicked these people away.
These people were immediately kicked unconscious. They used their last bit of strength to shoot an arrow to warn the people in the stockade.
At this time, the second head of the village, Xia Ning, and the third head, Xia Weiwei, were having a chat.
Seeing the arrow, Xia Ning immediately rushed out.
Xia Ning thought that he could defeat Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi, so he rushed out with his underlings.
When he saw that Jiang Ming was a slender young man, Xia Ning suddenly became very arrogant. He did not even go up to fight him and directly let his underlings fight him.
However, Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi joined forces and easily beat everyone up.
Xia Ning began throwing rocks at the two, but they dodged them with ease.
Finally, Zhu Asi lost patience and immediately went forward to capture Xia Ning.
However, he overestimated himself and was almost injured. Fortunately, Jiang Ming also rushed up and punched Xia Ning.
Xia Ning was forced to step back. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
Just as Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi were about to continue, the owner’s scream suddenly came.
“Ah!”
His screams were extremely miserable, and it was enough to figure out the situation that the owner was facing.
Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi looked at each other. They had no choice but to give up on Xia Ning and go straight to the owner.
However, the owner had only been frightened by a snake.
After the snake left, he started to walk around normally again.
When Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi arrived, the owner had already disappeared.
As the owner walked, he happened to meet Xia Ning and his underlings, who were running for their lives.
Xia Ning knew the owner and directly took him away.
Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi continued to look for traces of the owner, but they could not find him.
“Where did he go?”
Zhu Asi lost his patience.
“He was captured by Xia Ning.”
Jiang Ming remembered Xia Ning.
“Alright, let’s continue helping people,” Zhu Asi said helplessly.
Zhu An’an came over at this time. When she heard Zhu Asi’s words, she quickly became enthusiastic. “I’ll go with you!”
Xia Ning brought the rest of the people to the main stronghold and twisted the matter a little. He made it sound like he had beaten Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi up badly and had come back victorious.
