In the evening, Wang Yao was at home having dinner when he received a phone call . Not too long after, Wang Mingbao came to his house, looking anxious .

"What's wrong?"

"Uncle and Aunt Wang," Wang Mingbao greeted Wang Yao's parents . "I have something to tell you," he said to Wang Yao .

"What's the matter?"

"Remember the last time I told you about those ginsengs?"

"Yes, I remember . What about it?"

"Earlier this afternoon, I paid a visit to my friend's house . He had already sold half of his stock . You mentioned that the ginsengs have adverse effects; are the effects serious?!" Wang Mingbao exclaimed . "He sold so many of them; will that cause problems with the law?"

"Ordinarily, ginseng cannot be consumed in large quantities . Those ginsengs have eternal ingredients injected into them to encourage growth . The adverse effects are small, so the problem isn't big . The issue is the price that he sold them at . If he sold them at a premium price and passed them off as premium quality ginsengs, he is cheating others . Did he sell them directly to others, or was it through an intermediary distributor?"

"I don't know about that . "

"I know!" Wang Yao's eyes suddenly brightened . "Let me ask Li Maoshuang . "

He made a phone call . The other person listened and immediately understood .

"I was thinking, how come Lianshan has so many wild ginsengs lately, passing lower quality ginsengs as premium quality ones . Furthermore, the price is not cheap either . This is against the rules," Li Maoshuang commented over the phone . In every industry, there were rules . Money could be earned, but rules could not be broken . When broken, punishment would ensue .

Hearing Li Maoshuang's explanation, Wang Yao knew the crux of the matter . Wang Mingbao's friend had gotten himself into trouble that was not that serious, yet not negligible either . If caught, he could be sent to the police . Passing fake goods as genuine goods would constitute as a criminal offense . Fines and detention would be inevitable .

"You'd better quickly remind your friend that the consequences will be severe," Wang Yao said .

"Okay, I will tell him . "

Wang Mingbao had come and left in haste . Evidently, his relationship with that person was quite good . Otherwise, he would not have cared so much .

"I hope your friend will listen to your advice . "

Shortly after Wang Mingbao left, Wang Yao received a call from Zhou Xiong .

"What, you're caught? Where?"

After he found out the location, Wang Yao swiftly called Wang Mingbao, drove to pick him up and drove directly to the police station in Lianshan County . While on the way, Wang Mingbao called his connections .

In the police station, Wang Yao saw the detained Zhou Xiong and found out what happened .

Apparently, at night, Zhou Xiong had left the apartment to walk around to move his limbs and buy some stuff . Coincidentally, he saw a young man who was harassing a young woman and hence he went forward to stop him . Unexpectedly, the other party had a knife . Zhou Xiong was unable to control his techniques and ended up hurting a few people .

By right, Zhou Xiong was being righteous . However, the family of one of the men he had beaten up happened to have connections and made a false counter charge . They claimed that Zhou Xiong had deliberately hurt them and had him sent to the police station . Zhou Xiong did not know anyone in Lianshan County—the only person he could think of who could help him was Wang Yao .

"Can you find out who is the man Zhou Xiong has beaten up?" Wan Yao asked Wang Mingbao who was beside him .

"Okay . "

Within a few minutes, Wang Mingbao found out that the people that Zhou Xiong had the scuffle with were playboys from families with a background . Their families had connections . Since Zhou Xiong was an outsider, they took advantage of him . Unfortunately, the young woman involved was nowhere to be found, so there was no witness .  

"This is a bit troublesome," Wang Mingbao said .

The families would not let the matter rest . As one of the young men had used a knife, Zhou Xiong did not show mercy and had beaten them up quite badly . Three of them were hospitalized, and one of them had two broken auxiliary bones .

"I got this . " Wang Yao made a phone call .

Not more than 20 minutes later, a man in his 30's appeared at the police station .

Zhang Peng was a lawyer he had met that day at the law firm . For matters such as these, it was best that they left it to the professionals .

"This problem is a little troublesome," Zhang Peng said after listening to Zhou Xiong's account of the matter .

"That's why we asked you, because you're a professional," Wang Yao said .

"Based on what you just said, leave this to me . "

And so, the lawyer displayed his professionalism and connections by posting bail for him . Guarantors were needed, and therefore, Wang Mingbao and Wang Yao became his guarantors . Zhou Xiong was worried about his son at first, but with bail posted, he was released that night .

"Thank you!" Zhou Xiong thanked Wang Yao and the rest profusely when they exited the police station .

"You should leave first; Kang must be worried . The rest of the stuff, leave it to Mr . Zhang . "

"No problem," said Zhang Peng . He was paid for this, and so, naturally, he would do his utmost to help them .  

Subsequently, Wang Yao drove Zhou Xiong to his rented apartment .

"Mr . Zhou's skills are indeed exceptional to beat up three guys in a three-on-one fight!" in the car, Wang Yao commented with a laugh .

"In Cangzhou, most people are apt in martial arts . I know a bit as well," Zhou Xiong replied .

"Will you teach me a few moves next time?" Wang Yao made a casual comment .

"Okay!" This one word uttered from Zhou Xiong was a firm promise and was made without hesitance .

At Zhou Xiong's place, his son was so worried that he could not sleep and was only able to relax when his father came back . Wang Yao stayed for a while and then left .

"What about you? Are you going to the village or the shop?" Wang Yao asked Wang Mingbao .

"To the village . Tomorrow, I'll be back," said Wang Mingbao .

Wang Yao thus drove back to the village .

"The boy we saw earlier was the patient you told me about previously, right?"

"Yes . "

"He looks seven or eight?"

"He is actually older, almost ten," Wang Yao said .

"He looks sensible . Has the illness caused him much grief?"

"Yes, he can't sleep at night, but he is much better now . He is a good boy!" said Wang Yao .

Upon returning to the village, Wang Yao parked his car . He looked at the time—it was close to 11 pm, but his house was still lit . He knew his parents were worried about him, so he walked in to talk to them and then made a move to go up to Nanshan hill .

"It's so late already, and you still want to go up the hill? Aren't you scared?" Wang Mingbao asked .

"What do I have to be afraid of?" Wang Yao smiled and asked .

"At this time of night, won't there be ghosts!?" Wang Mingbao said .

"For the past three years, I spent most of my time on the hill . At such a time, I will be up there alone . Maybe there is a ghost, but I haven't actually seen it!" Wang Yao smiled and answered . "Alright, I'm not chatting with you anymore . I'm going up the hill!"

Having said that, Wang Yao gave waved and went up the hill .

The next day, a gentle breeze was blowing .

On the peak, a man was seated, like an old monk .

Natural Classics mentioned that the guidance technique was marvelous and could be used between movements; except that Wang Yao was used to practicing static exercises . With that, another meridian became unobstructed, and his body had an improved change .

Constitution 3, Strength 2 . 5, Spirit 2 . 5, Agility 2 . 3, Will 2 . 4 .

Whenever a meridian became unblocked, his body's attributes would display great improvements .

"At this rate, if the entire body's collaterals become thoroughly unblocked, what will I become? Will I become a real hidden immortal?" Wang Yao was looking forward to it .

Eh?

He realized that his mission's completion status was at 21/1000—a sudden increase in the number of people . It was surprising to him .

"How did it increase so much?"

He thought over it and still could not figure it out . He decided not to think about it too much since this was a good thing after all .

When it was close to noon, he received a call from the lawyer, Zhang Peng . The families wanted compensation, and Zhou Xiong was willing to do so, but they wanted much more .

"What compensation?" Wang Yao heard him and questioned . "They were in the wrong, and still they demand compensation . And at such a high price?!"

They should not be too kind to such people!

Of course, this was Wang Yao's opinion . He had to get Zhou Xiong's take on the matter . Under Zhang Peng's mediation, all parties met and talked, but the other party's attitude was poor and arrogant . This angered Zhou Xiong, and so the talks fell through .

"So the bargain fell through? In that case, do we seek legal recourse?" Wang Yao heard the news and did not have much to say . He had an idea of the other parties' temperament . On the basis that they had some power and connections, they thought they could distort the truth . The former him would have hesitated and cowered . However, now he had sufficient boldness, connections, and money .

He called Zhou Xiong, told him his intentions and said that if Zhou Xiong were willing, he would do his best to help .

Wang Yao knew that it had been an arduous journey for the father and son, who had come a long way to seek medical help . He felt that their characters and temperament were good . Based on Zhou Xiong's righteousness, Wang Yao felt that he needed to help . This matter had caused Zhou Xiong, who was in Lianshan County, to feel particularly angry . He had good intentions and wanted to help those in need . Unexpectedly, it had created trouble . If not for Wang Yao's help, he might still be in the police station since he was not familiar with this area .

Wang Yao's offer to help and his words over the phone had moved him .

"I never knew that this doctor was not only an excellent doctor, but he also has a sense of chivalry and is very helpful!" He was like a knight in shining armor .

Zhou Xiong did not want to trouble Wang Yao . He pondered over it and decided to call another person .

The next day, to Zhang Peng's surprise, those bold, arrogant parties who were out to get Zhou Xiong had changed their attitudes . Furthermore, the police station received a CCTV tape that showed what happened that night . Some of the playboys were harassing a young woman . A stranger passing by saw the situation and stopped to help . One of those playboys pulled out a knife . In the end, the stranger had beat up the guys and had them all sprawled on the ground .

With this tape, all was clear .

The families were stunned . The thing that they had used ways and means to hide had suddenly appeared . They now realized that the stranger in a foreign land was not completely helpless and alone . They heard that he had connections in Lianshan County, and this matter was resolved with the help of a high-level person in the county, someone who wielded considerable power .

With the matter resolved, Zhou Xiong had gotten rid of the burden in his heart . He called Wang Yao to tell him about the resolution of the issue . After all, Wang Yao had been concerned and had given much help .
