He glanced around and, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, hastily pulled Chu Yang's hand to a secluded and unoccupied corner, "Brother, you're not joking, are you? The Mountain King Ginseng in these mountains has gone extinct; how did you manage to dig some up from somewhere?"
"Where I dug it up from is not for you to know," Chu Yang said.
The man with the mole on his nose chuckled, "Brother, don't boast. Let me have a look at that thirty-year-old Mountain King Ginseng."
Chu Yang unzipped his backpack and placed it in front of the man with the mole on his nose, "It's inside the bag, take a look for yourself."
The moment the man with the mole on his nose saw the Mountain King Ginseng inside the backpack, his breathing quickened, his eyes nearly popped out, and he reached out to grab the Mountain King Ginseng from the bag.
Smack.
Chu Yang suddenly snapped the bag shut, "You can look, but you can't touch."
The man with the mole on his nose's eyes bulged as if a slick, undressed beauty had slipped right past him.
Though he only had a few glances, with over a decade of experience, he was one hundred percent certain that the thirty-year-old Mountain King Ginseng in Chu Yang's bag was real. His eyes shifted, his gaze growing colder, "Heh heh, brother, I'll take that thirty-year-old Mountain King Ginseng off your hands."
"Name your price."
"One hundred thousand yuan," Chu Yang said.
The man with the mole on his nose chuckled, thinking to himself, "This thirty-year-old Mountain King Ginseng is worth at least one hundred and fifty thousand yuan. This idiot is only asking for one hundred thousand yuan? He must be foolish beyond belief."
He immediately agreed with a hearty tone, "No problem, I'll pay the price you mentioned."
"But one hundred thousand yuan isn't a small sum; you'll have to follow me to where I'm staying to get it."
Chu Yang wasn't worried about the man with the mole on his nose pulling any tricks, knowing well his fists weren't for show, "All right."
"Then stick close to me, don't get lost," the man with the mole on his nose cautioned.
"Don't worry," Chu Yang said indifferently.
"Heh heh," the man with the mole on his nose let out a chuckle, a smug look flashing in his eyes.
He led the way, and Chu Yang followed behind.
The man with the mole on his nose turned left and right, winding through several alleys, and eventually arrived at a very remote small dilapidated house with no surrounding homes. He pushed the door open and said, "Brother, this is where I live. Come in and get the money."
Chu Yang looked around. The surrounding area was filled with abandoned houses that were uninhabited. The place was exceptionally remote, invisible from the outside and offering no view from the inside, he said calmly, "I'd rather not go in; just bring the money out to me."
Suddenly, the man with the mole on his nose burst into raucous laughter, his eyes flashing viciously, his expression fierce, "Heh heh, once you're in my place, you don't get to come and go as you please."
"You should inquire about my reputation, Ge Dazhi. Once I've set my sights on something, it won't be leaving."
"Hand over the Mountain King Ginseng you have nicely, and I'll spare you."
"Otherwise, you're in for some trouble."
Rustle!
As soon as Ge Dazhi finished speaking, six or seven men in their twenties ran out from the courtyard, surrounding Chu Yang.
Chu Yang laughed when he heard the name of the man with the mole on his nose.
Finding what one seeks with little effort is truly fortunate.
He had been looking for Ge Dazhi to avenge his sister-in-law.
And here Ge Dazhi had shown up of his own accord.
"So you're Ge Dazhi," Chu Yang's gaze was icy, his sharp eyes fixating on Ge Dazhi like knives.
"Oh? You know me?" Ge Dazhi asked.
"I don't know you, but you surely recognize Xu Qianqian. A few days ago, her child fell ill and needed Mountain King Ginseng to save him. You deceived her with a fake Mountain King Ginseng and swindled her out of one hundred thousand yuan. You remember that, don't you?" Chu Yang said coldly.
Ge Dazhi laughed proudly, "Hahaha, so you're talking about that stupid woman. I merely employed a small trick, and she fell for it immediately. If there's anyone to blame, it's her own naivety, her blind trust in others, her susceptibility to deception."
```
Chu Yang shouted angrily, "Do you know that the one hundred thousand yuan is her daughter's lifesaving money?"
"Heh, what does it have to do with me whether her daughter lives or dies."
"I only recognize money, not people," Ge Dazhi said with a smile.
He continued to look at Chu Yang and said, "If you know what's good for you, hand over the Mountain King Ginseng you have."
"Hmph."
Chu Yang snorted coldly, "The Mountain King Ginseng is in the bag, if you have the guts, come and get it."
"Foolish boy, it seems you won't shed a tear until you see your coffin. Kill him for me," Ge Dazhi ordered with a wave of his hand, and the surrounding men immediately pounced on Chu Yang.
Chu Yang swung a fist and hit a man's arm.
Crack.
The man let out a scream like a slaughtered pig as his arm was broken by Chu Yang's punch.
Bang.
Chu Yang lifted his foot and sent another man flying with a kick as he rushed to his side.
The others approached Chu Yang who, with an icy look, showed no mercy in his attack. His fists struck the men like a heavy hammer.
Thud.
One of the men was hit by Chu Yang, spewing a blood arrow and collapsing unconscious onto the ground.
In the span of one breath.
Three men were downed by Chu Yang's hand.
Ge Dazhi's heart skipped a beat, looking at Chu Yang in panic, "Damn, ran into a tough one today. Better scoot."
Chu Yang saw Ge Dazhi trying to flee. It wasn't easy to encounter him today; he couldn't let this guy get away.
He increased the force in his hands and quickly threw two punches.
Bang bang.
Two men were knocked unconscious by Chu Yang.
Only one man was left.
Chu Yang stepped forward and struck the last man's face with his palm.
The man's teeth were knocked out by Chu Yang, and blood incessantly flowed from his mouth.
By this time, Ge Dazhi had run about a dozen meters away, but Chu Yang caught up to him in a few steps and kicked Ge Dazhi.
Ah!
Ge Dazhi let out a dreadful scream, fell face down on the ground.
Chu Yang stepped on Ge Dazhi's face, saying coldly, "Thinking of running? Did I give you permission to run?"
"Kid, don't push your luck. I, Ge Dazhi, am not one to be trifled with. Let me go now!" Ge Dazhi shouted.
"Now that you're in my hands, you still dare not keep quiet." Chu Yang's fists fell on Ge Dazhi like raindrops.
"Ah..." Ge Dazhi cried out for his parents.
Bang bang bang!!!
Chu Yang's fists landed on Ge Dazhi time after time. Ge Dazhi's body was covered in bruises, with more than a dozen bones broken. His face was swollen and blue, his teeth all broken, blood filled his mouth, and he made whining noises.
Having dealt with Ge Dazhi, Chu Yang glared at him and commanded, "Tell me in detail how you swindled Xu Qianqian, and if there is any concealment or deception, I guarantee your end will be even worse."
