My Supernatural Life of Leisure
Chapter 2418 Greed (two chapters in one)
The golden sun spreads its light to the earth. The fighting beasts caused great damage. Many flowers, plants and trees were destroyed around the battlefield where they fought, and it became a mess.
Lin Fei stood in the sky and watched the fight between the beasts for a while.
When he was about to leave, he found many small black spots on the ground in the distance.
"What is that?"
Because the distance was a bit far, his eyes could not see clearly, so Lin Fei opened the dimension space and took out a pair of telescopes to observe.
With the help of the telescope, Lin Fei could clearly see what the small black spots on the ground in the distance were.
Several figures wearing clothes woven from leaves moved quietly and approached the location of the fighting beasts.
Lin Fei looked at the behavior of these people and knew that they should plan to wait until the two beasts were both injured and then take them down in one fell swoop.
"Roar..."
The fighting beasts were injured in many places, and blood flowed from the wounds, making the soft hair on their bodies messy.
Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis arose, causing the two beasts to stop fighting.
At this moment, a group of humans hiding in the dark jumped out and besieged the two injured beasts at the same time.
Under Lin Fei's gaze, this group of people successfully surrounded and killed the two beasts.
He retracted his gaze and continued on his way.
"I always feel that someone is watching us."
"Where?"
"I can't tell."
"You must be thinking too much."
The hunters who harvested the two beasts whispered a few words, and then began to deal with the prey.
You can't stay outside the city for too long, especially in places with blood.
These hunters who hunted the beasts quickly dealt with the beasts and left the scene immediately.

In the sky, Lin Fei flew all the way and soon came to the place where the owner of the herbal medicine shop said.
He fell from the sky, stood on a small hillside, looked at the countless herbs in front of him, and smiled.
"I didn't expect there were so many herbs that Xiaoru needed here. The owner of the herbal medicine shop didn't lie..."
The telekinetic power was activated, and pairs of invisible hands condensed into shape in an instant.
Under Lin Fei's control, the hand formed by telekinesis began to collect herbs.
Not long after, there were piles of herbs on the ground. Lin Fei felt that it was enough and was about to collect these herbs. A voice sounded not far behind him.
"Hey."
"What are you doing?" Lin Fei turned his head and found that many people with baskets on their backs were staring at him.
The leading strong man was 1.8 meters tall, wearing a gray suit, and had a fierce face. At this time, he shouted at Lin Fei with a bad face.
"Who allowed you to pick so many herbs at one time?"
Lin Fei looked at this person in confusion, "What do you mean by this?"
"According to the regulations, everyone who comes here to collect herbs can only pick one basket.
You are collecting so many at once now, breaking the rules." The fierce-looking strong man said.
Another gentle man then added, "Because the herbs here are limited, everyone has set an unwritten rule.
Everyone who comes here to collect herbs can only collect one basket.
If this rule is not followed, once everyone collects more, it won't take long before the herbs here will not have time to recover and will be picked up. Then no one will make money."
After listening to this explanation, Lin Fei nodded. He was not an unreasonable person. Since the locals had this unwritten rule, he, an outsider, would follow the local customs.
However, Wang Xiaoru needed this kind of herbs, so Lin Fei decided to take away the herbs that had been picked and give these people some compensation.
"This money is my compensation..."
Lin Fei talked about the compensation with the people in front of him and took out a lot of money from his pocket.
When the fierce strong man saw Lin Fei taking out a lot of money, his eyes lit up in an instant.
Because the money in Lin Fei's hand far exceeded the value of these herbs, his attitude changed immediately.
Money moved people's hearts, and the attitudes of the people collecting herbs on the spot also changed.
Lin Fei thought that this matter could end satisfactorily, but sometimes things develop unexpectedly.
"The money you gave is not enough." The man facing the ferocious said slowly.
Lin Fei frowned when he heard this, and the gentle man who had previously supplemented the explanation said anxiously.
"Brother Liu, this money is far more than the value of those herbs, why do you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the ferocious man, "Shut up, you have no right to speak here."
The smile on Lin Fei's face disappeared, and he looked at the ferocious man and said.
"How much do you want?"
"Double it, no, double it." The ferocious man opened his mouth, his eyes full of greed.
Lin Fei put the money in his pocket and said expressionlessly.
"It's not good for people to be too greedy. Just now, accept my compensation, and this matter is over. You are like this now, these compensations, I won't give you a penny..."
The ferocious man listened to what Lin Fei said and got angry immediately.
"Don't refuse a toast and drink a penalty."
"Oh?" Lin Fei looked at the other party with interest, and then said calmly.
"I don't like drinking. Whether it's a toast or a penalty, I won't drink."
"Catch him for me." The vicious man yelled, and then many people ran out from behind him and rushed towards Lin Fei.
"Looking for death." Lin Fei waved his hand, and many people who rushed towards him were immediately knocked away by a huge force and fell heavily to the ground.
"Ouch."
Various screams sounded, and more than a dozen people fell down with just such a casual blow.
The vicious man who was extremely arrogant just now, now had cold sweat on his forehead, looked at Lin Fei with horror, and his body kept shaking.
"Weren't you very arrogant just now?" Lin Fei took two steps forward and said expressionlessly.
The strong sense of oppression made the vicious man fall to the ground with a bang.
Then, this man knelt down and begged for mercy without dignity, begging Lord Lin Fei to be magnanimous and spare his life.
"Humph."
Lin Fei snorted coldly, "If I were just an ordinary person, I would be dead now."
After speaking, he flicked his finger, and a tiny ice crystal flew out from his fingertips.
The man facing the vicious man felt a chill in his chest, and then he looked down, only to see a large amount of cold air appearing in his chest, quickly freezing his body.
"Ah!"
As soon as the terrified scream came out, the man with the vicious face turned into an ice sculpture.
The cold air spread all around, and the temperature around him dropped rapidly.
The people who were still alive shuddered, and looked at Lin Fei with horror.
Now these people were afraid that Lin Fei would kill them all, and the fear in their hearts filled their hearts.
However, Lin Fei only killed the culprit and chose to ignore the others.
Open the dimensional space and put away all the picked herbs.
Then he flew into the air, flew very far away, and disappeared in a few seconds.
The gentle man's legs became weak, and he collapsed directly to the ground, looking at his companion who had turned into an ice sculpture, muttering to himself.
"I told you a long time ago that you should not be too greedy, otherwise you will be in trouble sooner or later. Now it has come true!"

Zecheng
After breakfast, the two investigators put on their hats and left the inn, and began to wander around the city.
Because the rebels had caused a big disturbance in the city before, not only assassinating important figures in the city lord's mansion, but also rescuing their companions from prison, there are now soldiers stationed in various places to investigate some suspicious people on the road.
"You two stop."
The two investigators heard someone calling them from behind, and then stopped.
Looking at the soldiers in front of them, they knew without thinking that they were going to investigate their identities.
Because they had experienced it several times, the two investigators were not as nervous as when they first entered the city.
After comparing the wanted order, the soldier waved to the two investigators and turned away.
"On the way here, we encountered at least six soldiers on guard. Such a strong search is really strong." said the tall investigator.
"If it were me, I would also let my men search for the rebels strictly if there was such a big commotion." said the short investigator.
The two investigators chatted and continued to stroll forward. After a while, they walked through several streets.
Some shops on the street were closed today. It is obvious that they were affected by the rebels and were afraid of causing trouble, so they were temporarily closed.
This situation is actually very unfavorable for collecting intelligence. The two investigators walked around the street for a few hours, discussed it, and decided to stop here today and wait until tomorrow to collect intelligence.
Then they found a carriage on the side of the road, told the driver the address of the inn, and started to return.
…………
The clear sky gradually changed, and clouds floated from nowhere and began to embellish the endless blue sky.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked quickly on the dirt road. This time he came out to do a mission and wanted to complete it as soon as possible, but the road conditions were much worse than he thought.
So he arrived at his destination later than expected.
The clouds floating from afar blocked the sun, and without the dazzling sunlight, the burden on the body was greatly reduced.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked around and decided to rest in the shade in front for a while before continuing on his way.
He left the dirt road, walked forward on the grass, and came to a big tree with lush branches and leaves.
The cool shade of the tree made the temperature drop a lot. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead breathed a sigh of relief and then took out the kettle to drink water.
The occasional breeze blew on his body, making the sweat on his face gradually disappear.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was also alert to the surroundings while repairing, guarding against the possible appearance of strange beasts.
"Roar..."
The roar of the beast was faintly heard, but it might not be heard clearly because of the distance.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead listened carefully and judged the possible direction of the strange beast.
The roar of the beast disappeared, and there was a high probability that the strange beast that made the roar had left.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead continued to look at the direction where the beast roared. After a long while, the beast roar did not appear again, and he relaxed his vigilance in this direction.
Rest time always passes quickly. Unconsciously, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead rested for more than 20 minutes under the shade of the tree.
He stood up and prepared to continue on his way.
There were more and more clouds in the sky, blocking the sunlight from the area where the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was.
Without direct sunlight, it was relatively easy to travel in such an environment.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked quickly on the uneven dirt road, climbed over several low hills, and finally arrived at the destination at noon.
"Huh?"
The scene in front of him was disappointing.
According to the prompt of the person who issued the task, there should be a lot of flowers needed in this place.
However, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the bare grass in front of him, and didn't see even a single flower.
At this time, he couldn't help but wonder if he had found the wrong place.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead took out the map from his pocket and compared it carefully. He was sure that he had not found the wrong place.
However, in this desolate place in front of him, there was not a single flower to be seen. How to complete the task?
"What should we do now?"
"How do we go back?"
"If we don't bring back the flowers needed for the mission, this mission will be considered a failure."
"We set out early in the morning and spent several hours to get to this place, but we failed. Not only did we waste time, but we also worked in vain."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead frowned and thought as he looked at the bare grass. He was obviously unwilling to go home like this.
Next, he needed to look around to see if he could find what he needed for the mission.
In theory, there would always be some flowers needed for the mission around.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead began to continue searching. When he passed through the bare grass, he found many shallow footprints on the ground.
According to experience, we know that these footprints were left by animals.
Therefore, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had to be careful when exploring the surroundings.
The clouds floating randomly in the sky began to connect together. When the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked up and glanced, he found that the connected clouds began to change color.
The clouds that were originally as white as snow now had a hint of black.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the change in the clouds and his heart sank.
If the clouds in the sky continue to darken, and then all turn into dark clouds, it will not be long before heavy rain.
Now the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead is at least 20 kilometers away from Zecheng. Once it rains heavily, he will definitely not be able to return to the city in a short time.
"We must hurry to find the mission items."
"We can't be trapped outside the city by the heavy rain."
