My Supernatural Life of Leisure

In the rain, a large number of soldiers rushed all the way to the destination indicated by the order issued by their superiors.

As the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead thought, the place where these soldiers were going was where many merchants lived.

As the soldiers arrived, the merchants were panicked, and many of them were thinking quickly in their hearts whether they had caused any trouble, so these soldiers came here.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

"Open the door." The rapid knocks on the door sounded, and there were also the shouts of soldiers.

After a while, many houses where merchants lived opened their doors, and then a large number of soldiers entered the merchants' houses and began to search carefully.

After a while, the soldiers did not gain anything, and then all the soldiers left the place where they were searching.

"My goods are in such a mess. I need to spend a lot of time to sort them out."

"What are those soldiers looking for? They look very anxious."

"Does anyone know?"

"I don't know."

"I finally sorted out the warehouse, and now it's a mess. What's going on?"

Complaints rang out one after another. These merchants only dared to complain after the soldiers left, but they didn't dare to say these words in front of them, otherwise they would inevitably be scolded. In serious cases, they would be arrested and have to spend a few days in prison.

In the distance, at the end of the street, a soldier captain stood under the eaves, with his hands folded in front of his chest and his eyes closed.

There were footsteps in his ears, and soon a subordinate came to the soldier captain and reported the search to him.

"Captain, we have searched carefully and found no rebels."

"Have you searched every merchant's home?" The soldier captain opened his eyes and asked his subordinates with a sharp gaze.

"No one dares to take this matter lightly, and the search process is very careful." The subordinate hurriedly said. He dared not slack off in this matter.

The captain of the soldiers looked at his subordinates, and half a minute later, he sighed.

"Now we have nothing, and it is a bit difficult to explain when we go back."

The subordinate rolled his eyes when he heard this, and then he lowered his voice and whispered a suggestion.

"Why don't we just catch some people and go back to report, so that we won't disappoint that adult."

The captain of the soldiers listened to what his subordinates said, and his face suddenly became serious.

"That adult is not easy to fool. If we do this, if he finds out, we will be in trouble."

"Uh..." The subordinate was frightened and hesitated to speak again.

"Don't have this idea again in the future. Now you go to gather everyone, and we will go back and report truthfully..." The captain of the soldiers ordered.

"Yes." The subordinate nodded, then turned and left, walked into the rain, and ran quickly towards where his companions were.

Not long after, many soldiers gathered and began to return to the direction of the city lord's mansion.

Although it was raining heavily, many residents were curious when they heard the noise on the street.

The residents quietly opened the windows and looked at the street. When they saw many soldiers passing by their homes, they became nervous and prayed that these soldiers would not come to their homes.

Not long after, all the soldiers left and the searched place returned to silence.

…………

Thunder and lightning flashed continuously in the sky, and a large amount of rain fell on the house, along the eaves and fell on the ground, forming streams.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in front of the window, watching the large amount of rain on the road flowing to the low-lying area, his thoughts diverged involuntarily, imagining the scene of rain gathering in the low-lying area.

Not long after, dense footsteps appeared at the end of the street.

At this time, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came back to his senses, and then looked at the end of the street, and he saw the soldiers he had seen before.

At this moment, these soldiers were very fast, passing through the door of the inn and soon disappeared.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead found that these soldiers were intact, and judged that they had just gone to perform the mission and did not find the target, otherwise it would not be like this.

"Knock, knock, knock."

The door of the room was knocked, and soon, the waiter walked into the room.

At this moment, he was holding a plate of fruit in his hand, which was ordered by the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.

"Sir, enjoy your meal."

The waiter put the fruit on the table and turned to leave.

The captain of the pig-headed man with a brown birthmark on his forehead stopped him and asked, "Didn't you say that the warehouse was robbed before? Has the same thing happened again in the warehouse during this period?"

The waiter shook his head, "No, the warehouse has not been robbed since the last time."

The captain of the pig-headed man with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded, and then the waiter left. He sat at the table eating fruit. Not long after, the wind and thunder outside became smaller.

Time passed, and near dusk, the rain that had been falling all day became very light.

This weather change was surprising, because the recent heavy rains lasted for a long time, and it was rare for the rain to become lighter so quickly.

Many people thought that the lightening of the rain was only temporary, and it would rain heavily again soon.

However, the development of things was beyond everyone's expectations. The rain finally stopped, and it did not fall heavily again as everyone thought.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in front of the window, looking at the sky that was gradually clearing, with a surprised expression on his face.

"The heavy rain stopped so quickly this time. Could it be that the rainy season has changed?"

As the heavy rain stopped, the streets gradually became lively. You could see many people coming out of their homes and starting shopping on the streets.

Stores that were previously closed were opened, and vendors also came out to set up stalls.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked out of the inn. He walked around the street for a while, looking at the lively streets, he couldn't help but sigh.

"It was raining heavily not long ago, but now that the rain has stopped, the deserted streets have immediately returned to life. Everyone is really hardworking."

"Gululu..." His stomach growled. The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead had just eaten some fruit, but he soon became hungry.

He looked around and then found a random restaurant to eat.

After dinner, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead came out of the restaurant. He did not go back to the inn to rest, but walked towards the place where the soldiers he saw during the day were going.

Although the soldiers were safe and sound, and there was a high probability that no battle broke out, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead still wanted to go to the scene to see for himself.

It took him more than ten minutes to reach his destination.

Passers-by eating at the stalls set up by vendors on the roadside were talking animatedly about what happened not long ago.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood on the roadside and listened. Through some information revealed by passers-by, he roughly knew how the soldiers had previously searched this area.

As he expected, the soldiers searched the place carefully and found nothing.

"A battle broke out earlier to capture the rebels, and the rebels were rescued. It seems that the big shot deployed a lot of people to search, but unfortunately, the rescued rebel was not captured in the end..."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead muttered to himself regretfully. At this moment, chaos suddenly broke out at the end of the street.

"Get out of the way."

"Get out of the way."

A rough voice shouted loudly. Passers-by on the road were startled when they heard the sound and quickly retreated to both sides of the road.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood on tiptoes and looked into the distance. He suddenly saw a luxurious carriage.

This carriage is very familiar. It is the carriage that the big man rides in. There are many soldiers guarding the surroundings, asking passers-by to quickly get out of the congested road.

"The rain just stopped, why did this big man come out?" The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was a little confused when he saw the luxurious carriage appearing on the street.

However, he quickly guessed a possibility. There was a high probability that this big man appeared now to attract the hiding rebels.

At this time, the rebels were hiding very secretly. The person they hated the most was probably this big shot.

If there was an opportunity to take action against this big shot, those rebels would not easily miss such a good opportunity.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the luxurious carriage, his eyes moving as the carriage moved.

There are many passers-by on both sides of the street, and they don't dare to speak now, for fear of offending these people they can't afford to offend, and getting into trouble.

The luxurious carriage moved slowly, and it took a long time to reach the end of the street, then turned a corner and disappeared.

The quiet streets soon returned to bustling scenes after the big shots left.

Passers-by whispered in lowered volumes, discussing the big shot just now.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead listened to the comments of passers-by around him, then turned and left.

He is leaving the city now and wants to avoid getting into trouble as much as possible.

…………

Time flies like an arrow, and the sun and moon fly like a shuttle.

There is not a single white cloud in the clear sky, and the sun hangs high in the sky, pouring bright sunlight on the earth.

In the inn, a figure lying on the bed opened his eyes.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead yawned, then got up and got out of bed. After eating breakfast, he came out of the inn and called a carriage on the roadside.

"Da, da, da..."

The horse's hooves stamped on the ground, making a crisp sound, and the carriage ran quickly on the road.

In the past few days, the city has been very peaceful, with no incidents happening at all. It is so peaceful that people are not used to it.

Of course, this unaccustomed feeling is only limited to a small number of people.

Most ordinary residents very much hope that this kind of peace can continue forever.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the street scene outside the carriage, his thoughts diverging.

A few days ago, after the heavy rain stopped, he wandered on the street and saw a big shot going out. He guessed that the other person wanted to use himself as bait to attract the hiding rebels.

However, in the following days, although big shots appeared on the streets from time to time, no rebels took the bait.

Apparently, the rebels were more cautious than imagined.

"Xu."

The driver pulled the reins to stop the horse. When the carriage stopped, he immediately shouted to the passengers in the car.

"Sir, we've arrived."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead lifted the curtain and got off the car. He paid the fare and asked the driver to wait for him for a while. Then he walked quickly to the Chamber of Commerce residence across the street.

Before he came here, the Chamber of Commerce residence was under renovation and he could not meet the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce.

After a few days, the Chamber of Commerce residence has been renovated and has become more magnificent. Many staff members are busy at this moment.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead explained his purpose, and the guard standing at the gate immediately went to report.

After a few minutes, a steward came to the door of the Chamber of Commerce residence and led the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead to the depths of the Chamber of Commerce residence.

About an hour later, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead walked out of the Chamber of Commerce residence accompanied by the steward. At this moment, both sides were full of smiles.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead smiled and said, "Just send it here, no need to send it again."

"Sir, take care." The steward said enthusiastically.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead nodded slightly, and then walked across the street.

The driver waited for a long time, and he was relieved to see the guest coming back.

Before, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead asked the driver to wait on the side of the road. He said he would be back soon, but because of some things, the driver thought the guest would not come back, so he wasted a lot of time in vain.

"Master, I'm sorry to make you wait so long."

"It's okay." The driver said with a smile.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead took the carriage again, and the driver took him back to the inn.

Now he went back to the inn to pack up and prepare to leave the city.

I just met with the president of the Chamber of Commerce and learned about the progress of the matter.

He knew that the other party had secretly arranged manpower, but because there were many things happening in the city recently, it would take some time to gather enough manpower for mining.

Fortunately, the first batch of manpower has been recruited almost and can set off within half a month.

"Sir, why did you come back so soon today?" The waiter said in surprise when he saw the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead.

"I have finished my work and will leave this city next." The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead said with a smile.

Then, he went back to the guest room to pack up his things, settled the bill with the inn, and rewarded the waiter with some money.

Amid the waiter's repeated thanks, he left the inn and took a carriage to the city gate.
