Jiang Wan paused for a moment while standing there, and the little boy ran over quickly.

He held his pockets tightly because they were filled with his sister's favorite candies.

After really setting out on the journey, Jiang Wan realized that the place she was going to was not that simple.

It is said to be a mountain, but it is not an ordinary mountain.

The two of them climbed over mountains and crossed two small rivers. Jiang Wan became more and more suspicious as he walked.

"Who in their right mind lives in such a remote place?"

"So that person is a little abnormal, otherwise why does he insist on living in the mountains when everyone else lives in the village?"

The little boy's words made sense, and Jiang Wan thought they made sense after listening to them.

"That's right. It's hard for you to find such a remote place."

"By the way, do people from your village usually come to this mountain?"

Jiang Wan was asking for information while walking, mainly because it was his first time in this place and he wanted to know more.

Otherwise, if something really happens later, she knows how to deal with it.

"Very little. People in our village make a living by fishing, and we can make a lot of money by selling seafood."

"Usually, everyone at home is very busy, so we children might go to the mountains to play, and sometimes we would help collect firewood for the family."

"But we returned to the mountains. People like this warned us not to go deep into the mountains, saying it was very dangerous."

"We think so too. We usually hang around at the foot of the mountain and don't dare to go anywhere else."

When the little boy heard that there would be candy, he worked harder than before.

Now that the candy was not in his hands yet, he basically answered whatever Jiang Wan asked.

"In other words, if I follow you to the place you mentioned and encounter any problems later, I can only cry out to the heavens and the earth for help but nothing will help me?"

The more Jiang Wan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and he couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

"You can say that."

The little boy had nothing to hide. Anyway, they were already here, and even if she suddenly changed her mind, she had to give him the candy first, otherwise he would not agree.

Jiang Wan didn't say anything, he was completely silent at this moment.

"Then if we get to the mountain and I'm in danger, will you protect me?"

"No, I can run faster than you."

The little boy was very honest, and what he said made Jiang Wan almost vomit blood.

"Are you really that cruel? You brought me here, and if something happens to me, won't you be responsible?"

"I only brought you there for the candy. If you want to kill me, I won't agree."

"I'll tell you something later. After I drop you off, you'll give me the candy right away."

"As for anything else, I can only say don't even think about it."

Jiang Wan didn't expect that a little brat could be so sharp-tongued that she couldn't even respond to what he said.

"you are vicious."

Knowing the little boy's attitude, Jiang Wan could only ask more about the situation on the mountain.

"Are there any wild animals in this mountain? Are there any other dangers besides that man?"

"Yes, I heard from my mother that there are wild boars, poisonous snakes, and many other powerful beasts in the mountains, so we usually don't dare to go up the mountain."

"If you hadn't given me candy this time, and if my sister didn't like candy, I definitely wouldn't have risked my life to accompany you up the mountain."

"Look, I almost gave you my life, but you were only willing to give me this little candy. The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel."

Jiang Wan almost believed what the little boy said, but he didn't expect that he was actually bargaining after going around in circles.

He just wanted to eat candy and get more benefits from her, so he talked to her in so many roundabout ways.

"Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. I only have this much candy. I can't give you anything else even if you ask me to do it."

"Don't tell me this or that anymore. It's useless to say anything you say anyway."

Jiang Wan immediately rejected his idea, and the little boy screamed in agony.

"Is it still not working? Is there really no candy left?"

"Okay, if there's no, then there's no, I accept it."

The little boy said this, but in fact he turned his grief and anger into strength, and walked faster than before.

Jiang Wan quickened her pace and caught up with him, asking many questions along the way.

Anyway, since they have given you benefits, it would be a waste not to ask.

The little boy was probably a little lonely, so he answered honestly even though he was a little impatient.

After more than an hour, Jiang Wan basically knew everything he should know.

They soon reached the mountain, and from a distance they saw a wooden house of medium size.

"That's where the lame man lives."

"Now that I've brought you to the place, can you give me the candy?"

"I've been out for too long. My family will be worried if I don't go back."

As the little boy spoke, he reached out and snatched the candy from Jiang Wan's hand.

"These candies are mine. I'm leaving now."

"It's very dangerous here, and this person is not simple either. Please be careful."

Before leaving, the little boy looked back at her, then jumped away with the candy.

He walked away with a brisk pace and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

After Jiang Wan relaxed for a short time, his face quickly turned stern.

Jiang Wan patted the bag, and the little monkey immediately popped its head out of it.

Its hair was squeezed into a mess, and the whole monkey looked a little cute.

After the little monkey crawled out of the bag, it rubbed its eyes drowsily. When it saw Jiang Wan, its vision immediately became clear.

"Mom, are you there yet? It feels like we've been walking for a really long time."

"Little sweetheart, were you so bored that you fell asleep just now?"

"Now we are here and have to work, so cheer up."

The little monkey got out of the bag completely and then quickly climbed onto her shoulder.

After a while, the little monkey's spirit returned to normal and it stood straighter than before.

"Mom, what do you want me to help you with?"

"Go and see if there are any people or animals in the house, and also observe if there is anything strange about the man."

"Anyway, pay attention to all situations after you go there, and make sure to find out all the clues. Do you understand?"

The little monkey nodded obediently, indicating that he already knew.

"Mom, I know. I'll go over and find out what's going on. You wait here for my good news."

The little monkey twisted his butt and ran forward quickly.

Watching the little monkey gradually approaching the wooden house, Jiang Wan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect to suddenly hear a loud dog barking.

Then the wooden door of the cabin was pushed open, and a lame man rushed out with a crutch in one hand and a shotgun in the other.
