The morning sun shone on the window, and on the bed, Nan Gong Rou opened her eyes, looking at Chen Hu who was beside her and staring at her, Nan Gong Rou smiled: "You're awake."

"A minute before you."

Chen Hu also faintly smiled.

"Rise?"

Nan Gong Rou looked at Chen Hu.

"Sure."

Chen Hu nodded his head and immediately got up.

Seeing that, Nan Gong Rou's mouth twitched, she had only said that, in truth she was asking Chen Hu if he wanted that thing.

Seeing that Chen Hu had quickly put on the clothes, Nangong Rou shook her head and gave up on the thought that it was inappropriate for children. She took the clothes and got ready to get up, dressed in front of Chen Hu.

However, just as she was putting on her pants, Nan Gong Rou suddenly noticed that Chen Hu's clothes were torn, as if they were being worn in some place.

Nan Gong Rou's pupils contracted slightly as she recalled what happened last night. Seemingly, there was no place that could tear Chen Hu's clothes and she could not help but ask: "Chen Hu, what happened to your clothes?"

"Clothes? "Oh, well, maybe it was last night."

Last night, he quickly jumped off the roof to catch the falling child. In order to ensure the child's safety, he followed the inertia and rubbed against the ground for a distance. It was at that time that his clothes were damaged.

However, because he was worried about the black clothed man's matter, Chen Hu ignored his clothes, and did not expect to reveal a flaw, but he did not care, as his clothes were torn, Nangong Rou should not think too much.

If Nangong Rou insisted on asking, then he would just tell her about what happened last night. With Nangong Rou's kindness and righteousness, even if she knew about this matter, even if there was a certain amount of danger, she would definitely support him in finding the black-clothed man.

"Let's change it to something else. It's all broken, what's the use of wearing it?"

Nan Gong Rou did not think too much about it, just as Chen Hu had expected.

"I didn't know that, right?"

Chen Hu laughed, he really did not know that his clothes were torn. Last night, when he came back, it was dark and bright, he did not turn on the light, although he could see the situation in the dark, but he did not notice that his clothes were torn.

If Nangong Rou had not reminded him, he would not have known that his clothes were torn.

After changing clothes, Chen Hu and Nan Gong Rou left the hotel and headed towards the famous bun house in Dragon Tooth Town to eat breakfast. After that, the two of them would go climb the northern mountains and experience the metal chain bridge.

He definitely had to find the black-clothed man, but he couldn't leave to accompany Nan Gong Rou to travel. Chen Hu had come to the Dragon Tooth Town to travel with Nan Gong Rou, and he didn't have any clues on the black-clothed man either.

The weather was very good today, with white clouds covering the sky, blocking the sunlight. It was very clear, but not hot, and Chen Hu and Nan Gong Rou continued to climb the mountain while enjoying the natural scenery. When it was almost noon, they arrived at the North Mountain and ate a round of raw mountain goods at the resort at the top of the mountain.

It was a suspension bridge built on the edge of a canyon. It was made from 12 iron ropes pulled together by a row of wooden planks, and each person on the bridge had to wear a safety belt. The belt could be fastened to the iron rope and slide along the iron rope, which could effectively prevent visitors from falling off the bridge.

Ever since the construction of the metal chain bridge, on average, there would be people falling down every year. Below was a canyon that was over 200 meters deep. Falling down meant death. There was no other possibility.

With the help of the staff members, Chen Hu and Nan Gong Rou fastened their seat belts, and then stepped onto the metal chain bridge and walked to the center of the bridge. From here, they could overlook the entire Dragon Tooth Town, and also view the scenery in the canyon vertically.

Chen Hu had originally thought that Nan Gong Rou would be afraid of such an iron chain bridge. However, contrary to Chen Hu's expectations, Nan Gong Rou was not afraid in the slightest. She even dared to lean on the iron chain, her eyes staring unblinkingly at the bridge that was more than two hundred meters deep, which was somewhat out of Chen Hu's expectations.

200 meters, this was a terrifying height. If one was afraid of heights, not to mention looking down, standing on top of it would cause one's feet to tremble.

"You must have a lot of guts."

Chen Hu said to Nan Gong Rou. Not only now, he had also found out that Nan Gong Rou was very bold.

"You're wrong, I don't have much guts."

Nangong Rou shook her head.

"You're not bold, and you still dare to lean on the iron chain. Aren't you afraid of falling?" "Don't tell me that you feel no need to worry about such a safety belt."

Chen Hu said. The safety belt looked very safe, but God knew if it was strong enough.

"Because you are here."

Nangong Rou said in a natural manner, "With you here, what do I have to be afraid of? Even if I fall down from here, I believe you can stop me in time."

Nan Gong Rou's words were extremely natural. She was not afraid, why was she not afraid, because with Chen Hu here, even if Chen Hu was not around, she would still feel a little afraid, because after all, this was more than two hundred meters tall. With Chen Hu by her side, let alone two hundred meters, even if it was more than two thousand meters, what difference did it make?

"Makes sense."

It was true, even if Nan Gong Rou stumbled and fell, he could still hold onto Nan Gong Rou for a bit, and even if he couldn't hold onto her for a while, he could still rush up to hug Nan Gong Rou. Then, relying on his Innate realm cultivation, he used the cliffs on the two sides of the canyon to reduce his speed, and safely landed at the bottom of the canyon.

"Look how honest I am with you. Shouldn't you tell me what happened after I fell asleep last night?"

Nangong Rou suddenly said.

"You guessed it?"

Chen Hu's eyes flashed with a tinge of surprise.

"I'm not an idiot."

Nan Gong Rou rolled her eyes. With Chen Hu's clothes being torn to such a state, it definitely wasn't as simple as being hooked by an iron nail.

Although Chen Hu did not want to say it, Nangong Rou did not ask, but she felt that it would be better if she ask. After all, the problems of the Heavenly Emperor Group and the Heavenly Dragon Sect had been solved, or should be temporarily solved, and there should not be anyone who would cause trouble for Chen Hu.

"Alright, since you want to know, I'll tell you. But after I tell you, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the Dragon Tooth Town for a while longer, so you have to return to the Linhai City by yourself."

Chen Hu heaved a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?"

Nangong Rou's eyebrows slightly knitted together.

"Last night …"

Chen Hu immediately told her what happened last night.

"Is that person very strong?"

She was very clear just how strong Chen Hu was. The other party was able to escape from Chen Hu's hands, he was definitely not weak. Although the other party had used their child as cover to escape, to be able to escape meant everything.

"He's not very strong, but his Qing Gong is indeed powerful."

Chen Hu said in a low voice.

"If that's the case, then he's an expert. Why would he steal the child?"

Nan Gong Rou said in bewilderment. Just like Chen Hu, as an ancient warrior, especially one with decent strength, how could he possibly want to steal and sell children?

Putting everything else aside, just kidnapping a rich person was enough to last him a lifetime without worrying about food or drinks. How much money could he earn by selling him off as a child?

"This is also where my confusion lies. At the beginning, I never thought that the one who stole the child would be the expert in Qing Gong that I was following."

Just from the perspective of benefits, the other party did not steal the children to sell them, but if it was not so that they could sell them, then why did they do it?

The key point was that not only had the other party stolen children last night, but they had also stolen several children. The other party must have had a reason for doing so, but what was that reason?

Nan Gong Rou thought of a possibility and felt a chill down her spine. She said: "Chen Hu, do you think that he stole the child because he wanted to use the child to train?"

Nangong Rou had read quite a few martial arts novels when she was young. She vaguely remembered that in those martial arts novels, there were a few evil people who used children to train in martial arts or to refine pills.

"Probably not."

Chen Hu said somewhat speechlessly. There were no evil techniques in the world, if there were, it would have been buried long ago. Nangong Rou had obviously seen too many wuxia movies, it was definitely impossible.

"Not the best."

If that was really the case, then those children would be in trouble. Although being sold off by a trafficker was a pity, at least they could live on. If they were used to concoct pills, then it would be too terrifying and inhumane.

"Do you support what I just said?"

Chen Hu reminded Nan Gong Rou.

"What?"

Nangong Rou was slightly stunned.

"I plan to stay in Dragon Tooth Town for a while longer."

Chen Hu said.

"Of course I support you. I will support you a hundred times in this matter."

Nangong Rou said without thinking. However, she then added, "I also want to stay."

"No, you have to go back. You haven't been to class for a long time."

Chen Hu refused, this expert who stole children, his Qing Gong was so powerful, if he was a lone wolf it would be fine, but he was afraid that the other party had other powers behind them, if that were the case, Nangong Rou who was by his side, might be in danger.

I can study by myself, since I don't care, I have to follow you. Furthermore, the Linhai City is not at peace, I have to go back by myself, are you not afraid that I will not have protection?

Nangong Rou said.

"This …"

Not mentioning the Sky Dragon Sect, the Heavenly Emperor Group would definitely not let him off easily. But if they let him go now, it was only temporary, they might bite off his hand anytime, and ask Nangong Rou to go back alone, he was really worried.

In the end, Wang Wen's strength was still lacking, he was unable to protect Nangong Rou in her place. In order to protect Nangong Rou, the best way was to have Nangong Rou stay by his side.

Thinking about it, Chen Hu nodded his head and agreed, "Alright, then we will stay."

"That's right."

Of course, going to school was very important, but it was even more important to stay by Chen Hu's side. Only god knows what kind of ghost the black clothed man who stole the child was, if even Chen Hu got injured, she could stay here to take care of him.

"It's getting late, aren't we going fishing in the afternoon? Let's go back. "

Chen Hu looked at the time and said.

"I'm tired. I can't walk, carry me on your back."

Nangong Rou immediately said coquettishly.

"Alright."

Chen Hu smiled, bent down, and immediately carried Nangong Rou on his back. Nan Gong Rou really liked carrying her on his back, and that feeling was extremely comfortable, as though she was lying on the grass, without feeling any bumps at all.

Chen Hu carried Nangong Rou all the way down the mountain. However, halfway up the mountain, he was worried that Chen Hu might be tired, so Nangong Rou got off from Chen Hu's back.
