Everybody is Kung Fu Fighting, While I Started a Farm

Chapter 49: Why Are You So Sure?

Over at the mountain top.

Having eaten over two catties of wolf meat in a single meal, Jiang He patted his belly happily before becoming troubled again.

So many Feral wolf corpses...

How was he supposed to take them off the mountatin?

After all, even weakest specimens in the droves of wolf corpses here were rank-four. Even if they had been utterly blown to pieces, they were still worth a lot of money. Not to mention, there were still hundreds of rank-two and rank-three Feral wolves that were killed earlier at the foot of the mountain.

He glanced at his System Backpack.

It was full.

At the moment, his System Backpack only offered six boxes: one for qi pellets, one for cucumbers, one for normal pea bombs, one for strengthened pea bombs, one for his cleaver, and the last one was for carrots.

He had no place to put his corn, although there were just a handful left, so those were placed at a corner of his garden.

Drawing out his cleaver, Jiang He tried to shove the Feral wolf corpses into his System Backpack, and realized that he could put multiple corpses in a single box. Still, there was a limitation. After he put two rank-six Feral wolf corpses into the box, the backpack displayed a wolf’s head icon, marked with a ‘6’ on top and a ‘*2’ beneath.

Later, he found that he could not put in any rank-five Feral wolf corpses, perhaps because corpses of different ranks were unable to be placed in the same box.

Looking around, Jiang He found a total of four rank-six Feral wolf corpses, and stuffed them all into his System Backpack.

“But isn’t this backpack a little lame? Others would have storage that’s like a warehouse of vast dimensions, and they’d be able to put in however many things they wanted...” he complained.

Still, the size of his System Backpack would increase with his farm’s level, and expansion would continue when he became richer in harvest.

“I’ll tell Mu Wanqiu about the other corpses... She’ll have to come and pick them up if I sell them to the Superpower Research Department, right?”

Whipping out his phone, Jiang He was ready to dial Mu Wanqiu’s number when his phone rang instead. It was an unfamiliar number, and the voice that spoke from the other end was almost bellowing at him.

“Where are you, Jiang He? Why weren’t you answering my calls?”

Duan Tianhe?

Jiang He sneered.

I blocked you when you hung up on me mysteriously last time. And now you actually use another number to call me? That shameless, huh?

Crack!

He promptly hung up.

***

Changliushui Scenic Route.

“Damn it!” cursed Duan Tianhe, gritting his teeth. “That brat blocked me and now he hung up on me?!”

He’d suspected it before, but it was proven now. After he had dialed Jiang He’s number eight times, only to be sent straight to voicemail each time, he’d finally managed to get through by borrowing Pudgy Jiang’s phone.

Pudgy Jiang was not a martial artist from Linzhou City, but he was affiliated to the Special Case Bureau and rather well known in the Western Xia Province. Just like Duan Tianhe, Pudgy Jiang had also previously been put in charge of a special squad.

However, because Linzhou City’s location was rather special, Pudgy Jiang’s position was lower than Duan Tianhe’s. Moreover, being vast, filled with resources and having many elites at their disposal, the recently established Martial Arts Department of Linzhou City had also become the ‘head office’ of the Western Xia province. The Martial Arts Department of Western Xia paled in comparison.

Of course, Pudgy Jiang had nothing against that.

After all, the uninhabited-for-miles Mount Dadong was only three hundred miles east of Linzhou City. There was no lack of King Ferals and inestimable ranks of powerful Ferals in that area, including the Graywolf King itself. Given that many Ferals stalked the mountains of the Changliushui scenic route as well, there was a lot more pressure on Duan Tianhe than on Pudgy Jiang.

As such, when Duan Tianhe called for his help, Pudgy Jiang did not say a word as he led a dozen elites, three sets of M61 Vulcans, two Barrett M82A1 anti-materiel sniper rifles, and several rocket launchers to Linzhou City.

But though he submitted to Duan Tianhe, Pudgy Jiang was still a motormouth, and couldn’t help dissing him several times when they met.

However, just as he was about mock him, he switched gears when he saw the dark look on Duan Tianhe’s face. “What’s up, Old Duan? You’ve always been prudent, but you didn’t tell Jiang He about such an important plan?”

Duan Tianhe’s was a little speechless at that. Jiang He was not associated with the Martial Arts Department and was not part of this operation. There was no need to tell him, was there?

Most importantly, who the heck would run deep into the mountains in the middle of the night?Moreover, they should have been able to stop anyone else from running in there under normal circumstances.

Gritting his teeth, he said, “Pudgy Jiang, didn’t you glorify yourself as the most agile fatso? You’ve also claimed that your physical arts are unmatched, that even Old Cheng only ever eats your dust despite his Eight Trigram Steps. So, why didn’t you stop Jiang He?”

“You’re blaming that on me too?” Pudgy Jiang shot back furiously. “We saw two Sky Demon cultists enter the mountain and did not go in recklessly because we were being careful. When we realized that it was him, he was already too far for us to catch up.”

“And isn’t he a rank-four? How could he run so fast? Oh, right!” Pudgy Jiang’s tone changed and became solemn then, “There was a boom from the mountains before you arrived that sounded like a bomb detonating, but it somehow didn’t sound exactly like one either... It came from about forty miles away from here. Could Jiang He have run into Sky Demon cultists?”

The look on Duan Tianhe’s face changed once again.

Remembering the dozens of Ferals that were blasted to hell by Jiang He back at Jinyintan Village, he promptly took Pudgy Jiang’s phone to dial Jiang He’s number again.

And then...

“Sorry, the number you have dialed could not be reached at the moment.”

Bang!

Duan Tianhe promptly smashed the phone into the ground.

Pudgy Jiang gaped at him, muttering, “That’s my phone...”

“You don’t have to be so worried. Since your previous call went through, the kid is clearly fine. With his physical arts, other than a grandmaster, no average person could keep up,” he added.

Duan Tianhe was relieved at that, and asked one of Pudgy Jiang’s subordinates for a phone to call Jiang He again. It rang for half a minute before it finally connected.

Over on the other end, Jiang He said lazily, “It’s so late, Chief Duan. What’s up? You’re still so persistent even after I’ve blocked you?”

Duan Tianhe had been very worried for Jiang He, but now suddenly felt an impulse to punch him at those words.

It was fine if he had blocked him. Did he have to say it out loud?

Don’t you feel embarrassed at all?

After taking a deep breath, Duan Tianhe growled, “Jiang He, are you in the mountains right now? Get out immediately! I have news that the Sky Demon Cult has gathered a flock of Ferals and are ready to launch a night raid on Linzhou City!”

Gasp!

Over at the peak, Jiang He inhaled sharply.

A night raid on Linzhou City?

No wonder the Sky Demon cultists kept mentioning that ‘plan’ of theirs.

They had brought along over a hundred Ferals, most of which ranged between rank-four to rank-six. Add that to the number of imbeciles who kept shouting ‘for the holy faith’, there was no telling how many would have died.

“Those mindless animals!” Jiang He couldn’t help cursing through his teeth. “There were over a hundred Ferals, and over fifty of them were rank-four or five. Who knows how many would have been killed if they reached Linzhou City!”

“As long as you get the idea,” replied Duan Tianhe. “Hurry back, or I won’t fancy your chances if you run into the Sky Demon Cult... Hold on, why are you so certain?”
