Chapter 161: Chapter 161: The Kidnapped Cub
Yadang corrected Su Tang solemnly, "Remember to call me big brother next time!"
Su Tang coughed twice uncomfortably and didn’t respond.
Yadang didn’t push it and continued, "The Ten Thousands Beast Country is far, very far from here! Considering Gaiyin’s speed, he would need to fly without eating or drinking for at least thirty cycles of day and night to get there!"
"Bai Zheng is a cub highly favored by the kingdom ruler, there’s no way he could just end up in the wilderness for no reason. There must be something we don’t know about this!"
Gaiyin squinted his eyes and shot an unpleasant glance at the cub behind Su Tang, adding, "And they brought a smaller cub with them!"
Sensing Gaiyin’s gaze, Su Tang shuffled her body, covering the cub more effectively.
Yadang found this amusing, "Gaiyin, even if this cub has nothing to do with you, don’t you find it curious that he looks so much like you?"
Gaiyin glanced at the cub that Su Tang was trying, but failing, to hide, feeling a bit bothered.
It was ridiculous. He had just been sad, suspecting this cub to be his, and now she was protecting him!
Feeling somewhat irritated, he retorted spitefully, "Not curious!"
What you see and don’t say makes you a good friend.
Yadang stopped chuckling and turned serious, "I think we can start with the cub. Awaken him first then ask if he knows anything."
Gaiyin nodded, indicating he had no objections.
Yadang looked at Su Tang, "Sugar Cub, do you have a way to wake this cub soon?"
Su Tang hesitated, "I can try..."
Having studied traditional medicine for a while with the headmistress, Su Tang knew of certain pressure points that could stimulate the brain to wake people up quickly.
She pressed these points, which shouldn’t harm the cub and should wake him up, but there was no response.
Su Tang was puzzled. Could it be because beastmen are different from humans?
So, Su Tang ordered 007 to scan the cub. The result left her furious!
Gaiyin was the first to notice Su Tang’s mood and asked anxiously, "What’s wrong? If it can’t be done then forget it!"
Banging her fist on the ground in rage, Su Tang winced slightly at the pain.
"Those beastmen are traffickers, to hell with them! This cub is definitely not theirs! They must’ve stolen him because they thought he looked nice!"
Adam asked hurriedly, "Why do you say that?"
After taking a couple of deep breaths, Su Tang explained, "This cub has a lot of mind-bewildering grass in his system. Overdosing on such herbal medicine can put someone into a deep sleep that can also result in sequela!"
"What sequela?"
Slightly agitated, Su Tang declared, "In simple terms, after taking this medicine, the cub would get severely sick! If it weren’t for me, even if the cub woke up, it would never grow up!"
"Not that his body won’t grow, but his mind, his conduct, the way he communicates, would stay as it is now—an eternal cub..."
Upon hearing this, even Gaiyin—who had consistently been displeased with the cub—couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
"How could they give such a toxic herb to a cub?"
Su Tang muttered, "They probably wanted to smuggle the cub away quietly without him causing a fuss. Beast traffickers! They all deserve to die! Gaiyin, when are you going to beat them up? Make sure to call me!"
