Chapter 624: Sinister Villain

"It seems that someone really is hidden in Village Chief Su's cellar," Zhuang Qingning surmised.

At these words, Su Zhengshi's mind reeled, and he was at a loss for words.

Zhuang Qingning didn't bother with an extended conversation. He stood and walked towards the cellar.

Su Zhengshi, pulling himself together, hurried to intercept him. Fearing his strength wouldn't be enough, he also called over the wolf-dog that was lying down nearby, untying the rope from its neck.

Freed from its ties, the wolf-dog charged directly at Zhuang Qingning.

But Zhuang Qingning acted swiftly. He slapped a muzzle on the wolf-dog as it sprang at him.

The dog, which had been poised to attack, was now tightly muzzled. Unable to open its mouth, it began to retreat in surprise, pawing at its face and unable to remove the obstruction. Finally, it ran away with its tail between its legs.
