Chapter 93: Chapter 75 Is There a Monster?_2

As he shouted, the entire cosmetics research and development department was thrown into chaos. Some wanted to run, others were curious, but the whole scene was a mess.

"So cute!" Wang Qianqian looked at the doll, her eyes twinkling with stars. It was simply a miniaturized doll. If only this doll wore a bellyband, it would be incredibly adorable.

The doll seemed startled by everyone’s actions and then hid behind the box, poking its little head out, its eyes examining the scene with great spirituality.

Suddenly, someone approached and reached directly for the doll. Unexpectedly, the doll was very agile, stepping directly and the person missed, catching nothing but air. Just as he hesitated, he found the doll was already standing on his head.

"Giggle giggle giggle"

The crisp laughter emerged, and Li Chen was surprised to find that the doll could even laugh.

The person just now reached with his left hand towards his head, but missed again as the doll had jumped directly onto another table.

"Catch it first!" the person quickly said aloud.

Li Chen also felt that this doll was quite extraordinary. It seemed familiar, but he couldn’t remember exactly.

All of a sudden, a flash of spiritual light crossed Li Chen’s mind, and he quickly stepped forward, opened the box, and immediately understood.

What are these radishes? They’re clearly ginseng!

Inside the box, there was clearly an abundance of ginseng.

The company’s materials, some of which came from Yunnan, Daxinganling mountains, but unexpectedly among this shipment of ginseng was one with many long years.

Ginseng, having absorbed the essence between heaven and earth for a long duration, would develop spirituality. Such ginseng that could transform into Ginseng Doll, surely has a history of several centuries, perhaps even more!

With time, it naturally acquired spirituality. This thing was extremely rare, rarely seen even in a hundred years. It was called Ginseng Doll because when planted, it could turn into a doll, even making crying or laughing baby sounds, which were very beneficial for human health.

Li Chen’s heart surged with excitement as he watched the still hopping Ginseng Doll, undoubtedly an extremely nourishing treasure.

Upon closer inspection, the Ginseng Doll resembled a miniaturized version of Fuwa, chubby and tender-skinned, and from a distance, looked just like a crawling human baby.

At this moment, the Ginseng Doll emitted giggling, crisp laughter and ran forward on the table, with a large crowd chasing after it.

Someone ahead tried to intercept, reaching for the Ginseng Doll, but it agilely jumped, stepping on his hand and then swiftly moved to his shoulder, unexpectedly grabbing the person’s ear.

"Ouch." The person winced in pain, while the Ginseng Doll giggled gleefully.

This scene also caused some people to laugh heartily, inadvertently dispelling the fear of the Ginseng Doll and realizing that this Ginseng Doll was indeed an extraordinary item.

Seeing the person reaching for him again, the Ginseng Doll jumped to the floor and darted between people’s feet, a single Ginseng Doll giving so many people the runaround.

"It’s there!"

"It’s over there, circle around him!"

"It ran over there now!"

...

For a while, the entire Fifth Layer was filled with the overlapping voices of everyone trying to catch the Ginseng Doll.

But after so long, not a single person could catch it, almost reaching it each time, only to have the Ginseng Doll escape.

Having observed for so long, Li Chen had noticed that the Ginseng Doll was very clever, basically toying with everyone. Two employees even bumped into each other in the scramble.

"I’ll go catch it," Li Chen said to Wang Qianqian, then suddenly moved to the forefront of the escaping Ginseng Doll.

The Ginseng Doll looked up, saw a new face, laughed "giggle giggle," and then attempted to dart under Li Chen’s feet.

Li Chen blocked with his left foot. With his capability, the Ginseng Doll was undoubtedly doomed to be caught.

The Ginseng Doll immediately dodged, giggling as it did. Just as Li Chen’s left foot was about to kick it, it narrowly avoided him.

But suddenly, Li Chen swept his foot across, the massive force sent the pudgy body of the Ginseng Doll flying into the air.

Got you!

Li Chen quickly reached out with his left hand towards the Ginseng Doll, whose voice changed as it seemed to realize something was different about the person in front of it.

However, just as Li Chen’s left hand was about to grab it, the Ginseng Doll’s chubby little hand grabbed his instead, leaping onto Li Chen’s arm in a twinkling.

Li Chen reacted swiftly, shaking his arm to throw the Ginseng Doll mid-air, but the doll jumped from his arm onto his clothes and slid all the way down to the ground.

So clever!

Li Chen, stunned, hurriedly chased after the Ginseng Doll. It hid under a table, but Li Chen merely moved the table away. The Ginseng Doll’s voice seemed urgent as it continued to flee.

Li Chen, following leisurely, subtly influenced the direction of the Ginseng Doll’s escape. Whenever it tried to flee in a direction other than the one Li Chen was blocking with his right or left foot, he forced it to keep running forward.

Suddenly, the Ginseng Doll found itself cornered against the wall with no place to run.

Li Chen’s lips curled into a slight smile, "Let’s see where you can run now."

The Ginseng Doll’s face showed a look of desperation as it looked at Li Chen and even covered its eyes, a sight so amusing it was hard not to laugh.

"Got you," Li Chen reached out for the Ginseng Doll, this time it was cornered; there was no escape.

However, just as Li Chen was about to grab it, his expression took on a bizarre look. His grasp caught nothing but air!

How is that possible?

Li Chen was also shocked. It was impossible. The Ginseng Doll was clearly cornered. His grab should have been a sure thing, how could it have eluded him?

The employees behind him were equally astonished, but suddenly their eyes popped out in disbelief.

"Cheen, it’s behind your foot," Wang Qianqian saw the Ginseng Doll suddenly emerge from behind Li Chen’s right foot and quickly alerted him.

Li Chen turned to look and found the Ginseng Doll, half of it still embedded in the floor and the other half sticking out, pulling at his pant leg while giggling.

Played like a fool.

Li Chen sighed, perplexed. Could the Ginseng Doll really perform Earth Escape?

How could he possibly catch it then?

Indeed, once the Ginseng Doll noticed Li Chen’s attention, it bent its head and dived fully into the floor. When it reemerged, it had climbed up the pants of someone and onto their shoulder.

"It’s on your head!"

The crowd resumed the chase, followed by a hectic round of bedlam, yet they didn’t even brush against the shadow of the Ginseng Doll.

It seemed to grow tired of the game and then leapt down from someone’s head, diving into the floor before its entire figure vanished.

Seeing the Ginseng Doll disappear, the crowd exchanged looks.

Well, it got away.

But Li Chen was more aware of the extraordinary nature of the Ginseng Doll—intelligent and capable of Earth Escape. It seemed necessary to call Third Grandpa to inquire about the situation.

If Li Chen’s guess was right, the medical effect of the Ginseng Doll should be strong, definitely usable in medicine. In this area, his Third Grandpa was an authority.

Finding a secluded corner, Li Chen dialed his Third Grandpa’s number, and soon a messy voice came through, "Cheen."

Just as Li Chen was about to speak, a sudden burst of cracking noises came through the phone, followed by the sounds of Medicine Jars colliding and even shattering.
