Zhang Zhi originally wanted to stay in bed for a little longer but a sudden rustling in his blacksmith woke him up.
"Could it be a thief?"
Zhang Zhi got up, he quietly made his way to the blacksmith via the backdoor and he saw a little black blob drinking water at his quenching pool.
"Gosh, it's a big armadillo! Wait, isn't it the one that I released the other day?" Zhang Zhi exclaimed.
The armadillo that was drinking from the quenching pool got startled by Zhang Zhi's sudden appearance. It lost its balance and fell into the colorful pool and almost drowned itself.
Zhang Zhi was speechless. He fished the armadillo out of the water. "You little rascal, I released you back to the mountains and you came back? Do you want me to strangle you?"
The armadillo coughed some water out and looked at Zhang Zhi with an aggrieved look. It shook its arms and legs strongly as if it could understand Zhang Zhi.
