"Quick, quick!"
"Isn't that Huwa from the neighboring village?"
"He's been drugged with a knockout drug; go and brew some licorice root water!"
When Li Yan hurried back to the village with his donkey cart, a large group of villagers immediately surrounded him, and those familiar with the ways of the pugilistic world could tell at a glance that these children had been drugged.
Knockout drugs are not unusual in the pugilistic world; ingredients like Immortal Drunk, Yabulu, and mantraluo can be processed to make them: collect flowers in August, mix with fire hemp flowers in July, dry in the shade, and split into foams.
The method of rescue was even simpler: to brew licorice root tea.
After drinking a bowl, three children soon regained consciousness, looking bewildered as they found themselves surrounded by a crowd of adults, unsure of what had happened.
The missing children's father held his son and wept with joy.
