Chapter 213: Trouble-Maker

Shi Bao really wanted to give these ignorant villagers a good scolding, to make them think clearly, but remembering Ding Gaochang's instructions, he refrained from any actions that might escalate the conflict with the villagers, and merely waited quietly.

The sun was climbing higher and the grievances of the villagers were escalating.

They were initially only voicing their complaints, but soon began to point at Shi Bao and his men, shouting insults at them, demanding that they release the true person, in order to save their own lives.

Some children even picked up small stones and began throwing them at Shi Bao and his men.

Shi Bao and his men were hit several times, their faces marked with bruises.

"How dare you!"

Unable to hold back any longer, Shi Bao unshield his sword with a swish, shouting at them: "If you dare to be disrespectful again, don't blame us for being rude!"
