Not long after, Xue Zhiyi arrived at the stockade.
The reason he could move freely on the mountain without fearing wild beasts was because he carried medicinal powder that repelled them.
As per the usual routine, even before he reached the stockade, news of his return had already spread throughout.
By the time he arrived, everyone came out to see him, which made him feel helpless; it was always like this.
As soon as he entered the stockade, everyone gathered and shouted, "Big Boss!"
"Yes." Xue Zhiyi scanned the crowd and then focused on the Third-in-Command, saying, "You all get back to work. You, Old Three, come in with me."
"Okay." The Third-in-Command agreed and followed Xue Zhiyi inside.
Once inside, Xue Zhiyi quickly asked, "I heard some villagers went up the mountain to gather herbs. Did they discover our stockade?"
"Boss, don't worry. We kept them from getting close; our people diverted them away."
