My Supernatural Life of Leisure

Chapter 2433: Unexpected Gains (two chapters in one)

The sun moved slowly in the sky.

The golden sunlight shone on the ground, making some stones gradually become hot.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead moved forward all the way and arrived at the destination very smoothly.

The terrain in front of him was very open, and most of it was grass.

This time he took the task of collecting a special herb, which was purple all over and was called Zi Zi Gen Cao.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead began to look for herbs. He searched carefully on the grass.

Soon he found a plant with purple flowers, which were very beautiful.

Taking out a small shovel from his backpack, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead squatted down and started digging.

After a while, a whole plant was dug up with its roots.

"A total of fifty plants need to be dug."

"Next, I have to hurry up."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead put the dug herbs into the bag and continued to look for them.

The area in front of me is quite vast, and there are many purple root grasses growing there.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead searched in this place, and soon collected more than half of the mission items.

The sun in the sky is very dazzling, and the sunlight falling on the body makes people feel more and more hot.

The task of collecting herbs went smoothly at the beginning, but some problems occurred near noon.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead searched a large area, but did not find the purple root grass he needed.

"Strange, why is there not a single purple root grass in this area?"

After a few minutes, the doubts in the heart of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead were solved.

He found footprints of animals in some places, and the purple root grass should have been dug out and eaten by them.

Although he encountered some troubles, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not lose heart, and he continued to look for mission items carefully.

It was noon, and his stomach made a slight cry.

After working for a long time, it was time for lunch. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead immediately found a cool place to rest.

The stream flowed slowly, and gusts of wind blew.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead sat on a big rock and took out the cakes he had bought from his backpack.

Then he ate cakes and drank water.

Lunch was finished quickly. After eating and drinking, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not start to move immediately, but sat down to rest.

I just consumed a lot of physical strength, and now I have to recover before I move, otherwise I can't deal with danger well.

More than an hour later.

On the wide grassland, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead continued to look for purple root grass.

When the sun began to set on the horizon, the sky gradually changed color.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, who had been busy for a long time, finally collected all the mission items. At this time, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, with a smile on his face.

Pack up the things.

Look at the sky in the distance.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead knew that he had to go back quickly, otherwise he would not be able to reach Zecheng after dark.

Carrying a backpack and running away quickly.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead crossed the stones and got into the lush grass, and soon disappeared.

…………

"Chirp..."

Many birds flew in the sky, making clear and pleasant bird calls.

The convoy galloped on the dirt road, trying to enter the city before the sun went down.

A long queue formed at the city gate, and the soldiers strictly examined the people entering the city one by one.

The efficiency of entering the city was very slow all day today. Many people complained in their hearts, but no one dared to say it out loud.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead appeared in a forest. When he walked out of the forest, he saw the majestic city in the distance.

"Finally I'm back before the sun sets."

There was a sound of horse hooves not far away, and more than a dozen people rode horses and ran quickly.

Behind them, there was a strange beast chasing closely. Judging from the situation, it should have been chasing all the way.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead frowned. He thought about it, picked up a stone from the ground and threw it far away.

The crazy strange beast stopped immediately after being hit by the stone and gave up chasing the dozen people on horseback.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead glared at the strange beast, ignored it and continued to walk quickly towards the location of the city.

"Roar..."

When has the strange beast ever been humiliated like this? After a roar, it quickly chased the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.

The person riding the horse looked back, but did not stop to help, but continued to rush to a safe place in the distance.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not blame those who did not help, because their strength was very low, and if they stayed to help, they would be a drag.

The alien beast came in front of him and attacked.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead calmly dodged the attack of the alien beast, and then punched a few times, causing the alien beast to suffer.

The alien beast found that the prey was not easy to deal with, and it also had the idea of ​​retreating.

After all, the Pig-headed Man's city was not far from it. If the soldiers in the city ran out to help, it would be dead.

The Pig-headed Man Captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the strange beast begin to retreat, thinking that the strange beast was quite intelligent.

Not long after, the strange beast retreated to a certain distance, then turned around and quickly went into the bushes in the distance.

The Pig-headed Man Captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead continued to move forward. When he climbed over a high slope, he saw more than a dozen people looking at him in the distance.

These people were the ones who had ridden horses before. They were relieved to see that the Pig-headed Man Captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was safe and sound. One of the leaders came up and took out a purse.

"It's just a little help, no need to thank me."

"It's just a little help for you, but it's a life-saving grace for us."

The other party insisted again and again, and the Pig-headed Man Captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not refuse and accepted the purse.

After the dozen or so horsemen left, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead opened his purse and found that the other party was very kind.

For this help, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead received a reward equivalent to a task.

He happily put the purse into his backpack and continued to walk towards the city gate.

Because there were many people queuing, it took some time to enter the city.

When the sun disappeared in the sky, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead entered the city.

As usual, he called a carriage on the roadside.

After handing in the task, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead returned to the inn after receiving a reward.

"Huh?"

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead found that there were many people at the door of the inn and couldn't help feeling puzzled.

At this time, the waiter who used to serve him came over and asked him if he wanted to eat.

"Prepare a table of food for me." The captain of the pig-headed man with a brown birthmark on his forehead said, and then he asked why there were suddenly so many guests staying in the hotel.

The waiter smiled and said, "There were floods in many places before, and many inns were flooded. These guests checked out and stayed in other places."

The captain of the pig-headed man with a brown birthmark on his forehead knew the reason after hearing this. He nodded and said.

"I'll go back to the room first, you bring the food as soon as possible."

"Okay." The waiter responded with a smile, then turned and left.

…………

After a busy day, many pedestrians on the street began to go home.

The soldiers searched for the rebels and found nothing. Many people speculated that the rebels who made trouble had fled Zecheng.

After the sun went down, a group of soldiers received orders and returned to the barracks to rest one after another.

The tall investigator walked out of a store and happened to see a group of soldiers passing by.

He looked at the soldiers who were arresting the rebels and found that many of them had ugly faces.

After a little thought, the tall investigator retracted his gaze and returned to the inn.

A moment later.

In a room in the inn, two investigators met and talked about the intelligence they had collected.

"Do you think the rebels who made trouble last night are still in the city?" asked the short investigator.

"No rebels have been caught yet. Based on the intelligence collected during this period, I think some of those rebels should still be in the city." The tall investigator replied.

"I think so too. Those rebels may do something else tonight." The short investigator analyzed.

"I hope they don't come to our area to make trouble." The tall investigator frowned.

The two chatted for a while, then they put the matter about the rebels aside, left the inn together, and went to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

The food in the inn has been eaten for a long time, so change the taste.

As soon as they came to the restaurant and sat down, the two ordered the meal and waited for the store to serve the dishes.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise at the door, attracting the attention of many guests.

Under the gaze of the crowd, a motorcade was seen passing by the restaurant door quickly.

This motorcade was not organized by ordinary merchants, because this motorcade was protected by many soldiers.

Each truck was loaded with things and covered with gray cloth.

When the motorcade left, many people were guessing what was loaded on the truck.

The two investigators were also very curious, but they had no means to obtain more detailed information at present, so they had to give up.

…………

"Burp."

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead after eating and drinking, burped, and then he called the waiter to clean up the table.

After everything was done, he came to the window, opened the window and looked outside.

The street was brightly lit, and you could see that the small vendors who came out to set up stalls at night were all out.

There were many people shopping, but there was a place where no one passed by.

There was a battle there last night, and several buildings became ruins.

Except for some very curious people who would go to take a look, other ordinary people avoided it, fearing that they would be implicated.

When the waiter was serving the dishes, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead asked what happened to the residents of the buildings affected.

The waiter said that the government had compensated some money, and the difference could only be solved by themselves.

The residents who suffered from the disaster were very sad, but there was no other way at present, and they could only find a construction team to rebuild the damaged houses later.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the place where the battle took place last night, thinking that if such a thing happened again, it would be better not to be around the inn.

The inn was not affected last night, just because of good luck.

If the same thing happens again, the inn may suffer.

Time flies, and several hours pass quickly.

Because there may still be rebels hiding in the city, there will be a curfew at a certain time at night.

The small vendors and shops along the street who received the curfew order in advance began to close. Pedestrians on the street found that the number of soldiers gradually increased, and they began to return home for fear of causing trouble.

Not long after, the bustling streets began to become deserted.

When the last shop closed its door, the whole street became quiet.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the changes on the street, retracted his gaze, closed the window, and then went back to bed to rest.

The weather tonight was very good, there was no cloud in the sky, and the moonlight from the moon fell well on the ground.

Some places without light were dark, and it was difficult to find something hiding in the dark.

There was a small forest beside a small river in the city, and a figure walked out of the forest.

The figure was more than 1.9 meters tall, with a black cloth covering his face, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

There was a dagger hanging on his waist. At this moment, he looked up at the sky, his eyes fixed on the bright moon, and muttered to himself, saying something that was not very clear.

The lighted residential houses darkened. At more than twelve o'clock in the night, no ordinary people could be seen on the street except for the patrolling soldiers.

"I'm going to the toilet." A soldier said to his companion, then left the team and walked to a distant corner.

"Are you still not done?" The other soldiers waited for a while and saw that the person had not returned, so they shouted.

The soldier who went to the toilet did not respond, which made the waiting soldiers impatient.

The captain was very angry and shouted a few more times, but there was still no response.

So the captain led his men to a distant corner.

When they arrived at the place, the expressions on their faces suddenly became serious and their pupils shrank sharply.

The soldier who went to the toilet fell to the ground with a wound on his neck. Blood flowed out of the wound and formed a small pool of blood on the ground.

"No, there are insurgents ambushing us." The captain reacted very quickly and realized that they were attacked by insurgents. He immediately alerted his companions.
