I Capture Everything as a Pet in the World of Martial Arts - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Pack of Wolves, Changing the Courtyard

“Lin Changqing! Come with us!”

Dozens of burly men holding sticks, swords, and sabers quickly caught up to Lin Changqing and the others. The leader shouted at him.

Lin Changqing stopped and saw most of the burly men who had never cultivated martial arts and whose strength was scattered. He frowned and asked, “Who are you? How dare you block the way of my Knife Gang’s White Tiger Hall?”

Lin Changqing was wearing a gray Kinfe Gang’s outfit with the White Tiger Hall’s logo on it. He was wearing the knife that was the Knife Gang’s signature self-defense dagger. Anyone who lived in the county would be able to recognize him.

“Don’t use the Knife Gang to scare us! Our Seventh Master is one of your gang masters.’ The leader shouted.

“You’re from the Lu family? Can you represent the Lu family?” Lin Changqing questioned him.

“Don’t talk so much nonsense! You’ll know when you come with us!”

When Lin Changqing saw these burly men’s performance, he understood.

The tall Little Green left Lin Changqing’s side and took a few steps forward. It only bared its teeth and erupted with a ferocious aura. The group of burly men blocking the way was so frightened that they took a few steps back and their legs began to tremble.

At this moment, two men in black rushed out from hiding by the roadside and stabbed at Lin Changqing with two short swords.

Lin Changqing could sense that these two men in black were at least at the Strength Refinement Realm. These two people really wanted to assassinate him.

Lin Changqing could still sense that there were many people observing everything in the dark. He had long noticed this situation. He didn’t move, and neither did Little Tiger beside him. Little Green, who was deterring the group of burly men, suddenly turned around and used [Charge]. It was as fast as lightning and bit the arm of the man in black who was closest to Lin Changqing.

Little Green shook its head forcefully and threw the powerful man in black high into the air, smashing into the other man in black who continued to attack Lin Changqing. With another [Charge], Little Green appeared beside the two men in black who were about to collide.

Its two charges were extremely fast. In the eyes of the group of burly men, Little Green’s huge body was like a ghost. It instantly appeared in different places and attacked the men in black.

Bang!

The two men in black collided. Little Green came to their side and bit off their necks from behind. The group of burly men were frightened by Little Green’s fierceness and trembled as they tried to leave.

“Stop right there!” Lin Changqing shouted, and Little Green glared at them. The group of burly men immediately stopped in their tracks and didn’t dare to move.

Lin Changqing walked to the two dead men in black and squatted down to remove the masks on their faces. He saw two ordinary unfamiliar faces. He touched the two of them again and actually found a banknote worth a hundred taels and a lot of cash.

Apart from banknotes and silver, the two of them did not carry anything else. Lin Changqing picked up the two short swords and realized that they were smeared with an unknown black substance. They should be poisonous.

“Since you’re the family members of the leader of the Knife Gang, send these two people to the White Tiger Hall. Otherwise, I can assume that these two are with you. Let’s see if you want to go to the government prison or the prison of my Knife Gang.” Lin Changqing turned around and said to the group of burly men.

“Young Master Lin, don’t worry! We will definitely send them over! These two people definitely have nothing to do with us!” The leader looked at Little Green, who was ready to make a move, and his expression immediately changed. He agreed readily.

The young part-timers hired by Lin Changqing had their own ways of survival. They had been watching from a safe position. They looked at the arrogant Lin Changqing with respect and envy. Every young man had once dreamed of becoming successful.

After this episode, Lin Changqing continued to lead the people and carriages towards the forest outside the city. He and Little Tiger could sense that there were still people following them in the dark, but there were much fewer of them.

Now that he had Shuling as his trump card, Lin Changqing ignored these people.

Along the way, Lin Changqing used his increasingly powerful spiritual energy perception to constantly search for forests with relatively more spiritual energy. He only stopped when he reached the foot of a strange mountain.

“I want to choose some rocks and plants here.

You guys work according to my requirements.” Lin Changqing instructed the group of young men.

“Move these stones back.”

“Dig back all the roots of this plant.”

“Cut these thorny vines from this height and dig them back up.”

“Dig out this tree and bring it back.” Lin Changqing brought a group of youths and brought the rocks, plants, and trees that he had taken a fancy to back to the small courtyard to two freight carriages. The things that Lin Changqing chose all contained some spiritual energy. Only someone with extremely sharp spiritual energy senses like him could distinguish the subtle differences. In the eyes of others, the things he chose were no different from other things. During this period, Little Tiger entered the depths of the forest alone and kept bringing back pheasants, hares, and other small wild animals. Later on, it even called out to Lin Changqing to go forward and drag back a half-grown wild boar that weighed more than fifty kilograms.

After filling two large carts and exhausting the group of young men, Lin Changqing brought his men back to the county city.

A group of youths along with a huge dog like Little Green bringing two large carts of forest items was indeed eye-catching. After returning to the small courtyard, Lin Changqing asked the two young men to slaughter chickens and rabbits and roast them in the courtyard. The other young men went to help him repair the courtyard. They dug pools, planted trees, planted grass, and piled rocks according to his request. Lin Changqing’s ten taels of silver was not so easy to get. The small courtyard was about 300 square meters. Other than a few houses, there was still a lot of space in the courtyard surrounded by a brick wall that was more than two meters tall.

Lin Changqing first planted a circle of thorny vines by the courtyard wall, then planted various trees according to a certain pattern. The mud was paved with stones, and flowers and plants were planted outside.

It was the end of spring, the time to plant flowers and trees. However, the capacity of the two carriages was limited, especially when it came to transporting some large trees. They could not transport much at a time. It would take some time to modify the courtyard according to Lin Changqing’s request. After eating the roasted pheasant and hare meat, Lin Changqing brought people to rent two more freight carriages. In the morning, he had earned a lot of money from the two men in black and was not short of money now. The four large carriages had been transported back from the forest and were all transplanted to the small courtyard. Although the renovation of the small courtyard was not completed, it had also become full of vitality. “You can split the silver and meat. Gather in front of my door tomorrow morning. Wait for me to come back and continue working.” Lin Changqing took out a tael of silver and took out some pieces of pheasant, wild rabbit, and wild boar meat that the young men had helped deal with. He let the sixteen young men split them as today’s salary. “Thank you, Boss!”

This time, the voices of the youngsters became much more orderly. Although they had worked hard today and took a huge risk, they were satisfied to have such a harvest in a day. They were grateful to Lin Changqing.

After the young part-timers left, Lin Changqing took a deep look in the direction of the alley, closed the door, and returned to the house.
