Full Awakening: One F is trash, three me
Chapter 193 Lost and Found
This person is someone of great importance; they came prepared!
"Alright, I know you're not lying."
The mountain demon released the ape treasure and looked at everyone, slowly saying, "As you all know, several major events have occurred in the clan these past few days. Spiritual wine, spiritual fruits, and the library have all been stolen. This is something that has never happened in the hundreds of years of the ape clan's history. The entire clan is searching for the thief, but they haven't been found yet. This proves... the thief is very powerful, and their purpose is very simple: to wreak havoc on our ape clan!"
"them……"
The mandrill pointed at the guards and the monkey, saying, "They're just pawns being used."
The crowd looked at each other, some believing it, while others still harbored a sliver of doubt.
"Proving all this is quite simple. Rumors say the Longevity Peaches are fed to condemned prisoners. All we need to do is open the death row cells to prove it!"
"yes!"
Everyone suddenly realized that as long as the death row inmates were still in the prison, wouldn't all the lies fall apart on their own?
Yuanbao nodded in agreement; that was indeed a good idea.
Seeing that everyone still needed him to open the death row cell to clarify the rumors, the mandrill couldn't help but sigh slightly.
What a ruthless tactic! The rumors have taken hold of the people!
If the other side really killed everyone in the death row, then this news would probably be impossible to clarify.
Unfortunately, the death row cell was under guard because Sarutoshi had been captured and the King Kong had to make a decision on the matter. He had already sent a large number of powerful guards to protect it in shifts, which is why the other side had not been able to find an opportunity to make a move.
Unfortunately, we were still one step behind!
"Guards! Open the death row cells!"
"yes!"
At a command, everyone in the square surged toward the death row.
Soon, under everyone's watchful eyes, the death row cell was opened. The prisoners who had not yet been executed were all alive and well. Yuan Liang, who had been thrown into the death row cell, was also inside. He looked puzzled, not knowing what had happened.
At this moment, the rumors have been disproven!
Pfft!
Yuan Bao knelt down on both knees, and a group of robbers also knelt down.
"General, we believed the rumors and harmed our own people. We are willing to accept our punishment!"
"I am willing to admit my guilt!"
"..."
The criminal bowed his head, and the mandrill breathed a sigh of relief.
So close!
He was so close to letting the other party succeed. At that time, he would probably have needed to show off the peach tree to quell the rumors, but that was the ape clan's treasure, how could he easily show it to others?
"Alright, the rumors have been debunked. Considering you were misled by villains and this is your first offense, and the ape race is a tolerant one, everything is understandable. We will give you a lenient punishment. All the stolen goods will be returned, and you will compensate the victims for their injuries. You will also receive twenty lashes as punishment. Any objections?"
The group of robbers were overjoyed!
This punishment is already very lenient. Most importantly, it's all fake, and they won't die!
"Thank you, General. We have no objections!"
The mandrill then looked at the group of aggrieved individuals: "And you all?"
Having reached this point, everyone had no objections and began to speak up.
"Thank you, General, for upholding justice. We have no objections!"
"..."
In an instant, the area outside the death row cell erupted in cheers and shouts of gratitude.
"Gentlemen, our ape clan has no ambition for supremacy, but we are inevitably targeted. We hope that you will no longer listen to others' words, and promptly report any abnormalities to your superiors. The ape clan will certainly give you justice!"
"yes!"
"..."
The next moment, the mandrill's figure flashed and disappeared, and a voice came from the sky.
"Yuan Chong, you shall oversee all matters as I just instructed. Any mistakes will be severely punished!"
"yes!"
Yuan Chong clenched his fist and pounded it hard on his chest, his admiration for the general reaching an unparalleled level.
With the matter concluded and everything executed perfectly under Yuan Chong's supervision, everyone departed without lingering.
……
In the distance, Yang Han withdrew his gaze, his expression revealing neither joy nor anger.
"We're doomed, Master! That general is too powerful. Everything we did was for nothing!"
"Who said that?"
Yang Han smiled slightly: "The mandrill is very clever; he solved the problem, but he also left behind a fatal flaw!"
"Really? What's the problem? I think he handled it very well."
"Is it enough to just return the stolen goods after a robbery? Is it enough to just pay compensation for injuring someone?"
The Rock Spirit's eyes darted around as it said, "Under normal circumstances, that definitely wouldn't work, but there are extenuating circumstances!"
Yang Han nodded: "That's right! But once this idea appears in people's minds, it's fine normally, but when there's an opportunity for them to gain huge benefits, even if it requires breaking the law, and there's a plausible reason, do you think they can resist? Which person who breaks the law does so simply because they want to? Aren't there always plausible reasons?"
Yan Ling seemed to understand, but he was still a little confused about Yang Han's plan.
"But Master, didn't the two commanders say a few days ago that some king would come to their aid? If he does, our plan will be impossible to carry out."
"It doesn't matter what kind of king he is, it's useless. Our show will begin tonight!"
"So fast!"
"That's right."
Yang Han entered the Star Palace World and said calmly, "We just need to get busy for a bit."
……
Having gone through everything, Yuanbao's back was now covered in cuts and bruises, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
A sense of relief and happiness, as if he had escaped death, lingered in his heart. After being taken off the execution ground, he quickly returned home.
But as soon as he opened the door, he saw his wife excitedly waving something in her hand.
"Xiao Bao, look at this!"
Yuanbao's gaze shifted to his wife's hand, where a string of beads was held. He had snatched it from the shop of the guy who had humiliated him, and it was an extremely precious treasure for him at this stage of his life.
"A spirit core bracelet! Where did you get it?"
Yuanbao was a little dazed. Hadn't they all been handed over?
"It's at home, in the place where you used to store those dirty... things."
Yuan Bao suddenly realized that the guards had missed something.
That's the only explanation.
He took the string of beads and held it in his hand. A cool sensation washed over him, making him feel that his cultivation would be faster. This would have an excellent effect on his breakthrough to the Flying Heaven Realm.
He wanted to stay, but the pain in his back instantly brought him to his senses.
"No, this thing has to be handed over!"
"Huh? Why?"
The wife was puzzled.
"This thing never belonged to us; it's the right thing to do to hand it over."
His wife was somewhat unwilling, but she gritted her teeth and softly persuaded, "Xiao Bao, you traded this for the injury on your back. It can help you transform into human form faster. How about we don't hand it over?"
As he spoke, his tone became more tender and pained.
Yuan Bao's expression flickered, a struggle raging within him, but he remained silent.
"Father is urging us again. Before things got this big, we wanted to leave without telling him, and he's even more upset now. Xiaobao... I love you, and I want Father's blessing, is that okay?"
Looking at his wife who had suffered so much with him, Yuan Bao's heart softened a little, but recent events had made him somewhat fearful, and he always felt that something bad would happen if he stayed.
Seeing that he was wavering, his wife pressed her advantage, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Xiao Bao, the clan has already compensated those people for their losses, and you've repaid for their injuries, even enduring such a severe flogging. Everything is settled; you owe no one anything. Besides, think about it, who would you give this to?"
A thought flickered in Yuan Bao's mind: Who should I give it to?
His wife touched the wound on Yuanbao's back; the stinging pain made Yuanbao even more alert.
The wife continued, "Give it to the higher-ups? But do they really need this treasure? Or... do you want to give it to that guy?"
Yuan Bao wavered. Yes, the higher-ups didn't need his treasure, and giving it to the guy who had humiliated him was even more impossible!
"Xiao Bao..."
His wife nestled into his arms and whispered, "I've had enough of this hardship. For my sake, let's stop paying, okay?"
Feeling the tenderness in his arms, Yuanbao finally couldn't hold on any longer.
"it is good."
Yuan Bao hugged his wife tighter and said gently, "I won't hand it over anymore. I will work hard to cultivate and give you a good life as soon as possible."
