Chapter 015: Beast Hunting
Tiemuzhuang, located in a large forest, is managed by some workers hired by the Mu family and simple guards.
When everyone came here in a carriage, it was already afternoon. Mu Lei, who led the team, asked everyone to rest first, but there was no arrangement directly.
Before Mu left, Mu Qingyue briefly introduced him that although Tiemuzhuang provides a lot of high-quality wood every year, there is no oil or water. In addition, it is a bit remote and there is no competition for the Mu family, and it is all managed by the hired people.
After everyone was a little excited and stayed together for a night, the next day, they finally met the person in charge here.
"This is Old Man Mu, the manager here. If you don't know anything, you can ask him, he will arrange our work." Mu Lei pointed to the gentle old man beside him and introduced to Mu Li and the other four.
He heard this casual tone and I think he was familiar with the old man.
"The Wood Management Office is good." Out of politeness, the four of them shouted in unison.
The old man is not young, but he is very strong. Looking at the young and innocent children in front of him, he nodded lovingly and said gently: "Little guys don't have to worry, but don't be scared by this guy Mu Lei. We are very simple here. There are people doing work, so you just need to follow and don't have to do anything, so that's fine!"
The old man gave people a good feeling, and he seemed to have a casual relationship with Mu Lei, which made Mu Li and others feel much more relaxed.
In my later life, I also met the old man. Although the few people arranged a lot of things, they didn’t have to put in much effort. Most of the time, they just watched and helped.
Hesitating that this Tiemuzhuang has no big interests, and few people in the family pay attention to it, but there is no family's interest entanglement.
Most of the workers here are approachable and ordinary people, and everyone gets along very happily.
Although there will be some labor every day, such labor will naturally have no problem with Mu Li, who is already in the middle stage of the spiritual disciple.
Moreover, unlike the oppression and intrigue in the Mu family, the peaceful life here makes Mu Li very comfortable.
In addition, the other people had no scheming with each other, so everyone quickly opened their hearts and lived a happy life.
In this way, four days passed in a blink of an eye.
On this day, after working for a day, the few people in a happy mood were chatting and laughing with everyone as usual.
"Brother Mu Lei, tomorrow we will expel the beasts, are we going together?" Mu Qingshuang asked Mu Lei next to the bonfire. Now everyone is familiar with each other, so the communication is naturally much easier.
Mu Lei replied casually: "Yes, everyone is practicing martial arts, should you try it? Moreover, many of the children who came to practice before participated, and many of them gained a lot."
Mu Lei said it right. Although everyone is not old, he is also a person who practices martial arts. He is stronger than ordinary workers here.
Although except for Mu Lei and Mu Li, the other three are all in the early stages of the Spiritual Envoy, ordinary beasts can also be dealt with.
Hearing this, the few people who have done nothing in the past few days have also become excited.
However, these people didn't know that just next to such a remote Tiemuzhuang, there were people who were doing something these days, not knowing what they were doing.
…………
On the second day, Mu Lei looked at the big bag behind Mu Li's back and said speechlessly: "Mu Li, it's just a simple expulsion of wild beasts. You can prepare so many things!"
At this time, Mu Li was carrying a huge, half-human-sized package behind him. Although he didn't know what was inside, he could guess some things when thinking about today.
"My sister said that if there are dangerous things, it is best to prepare more in advance. Even if it is not used, it is safe and should not be careless." Mu Li looked at Mu Lei, explained calmly, and ignored the various gazes of the people next to him.
"Your sister... well, whatever! Anyway, you have no problem carrying this bag anyway." Others didn't know who Mu Li's sister was, but the young man knew it. After seeing Mu Xiaoyu's skills in the competition field, he heard a lot of her deeds, so he shook his head and stopped talking about anything else.
"Hahaha, Xiao Muli said that, although there are no powerful beasts nearby because they are often driven away. However, safety is the first priority. Everyone should be careful and don't be greedy for performance. Just come back safely." Old man Mu on the side looked at the prepared people, but said tepidly.
Old Man Mu said it right. There are usually no powerful beasts nearby, so everyone doesn’t care much about these things.
But everyone didn't know that at this time, a pair of eyes that were more dangerous than wild beasts were looking at the people who were about to set off in the distance.
Everyone set out quickly and searched forward according to the scheduled plan.
"Mu Li, you prepared something. I didn't see you last night. It turned out that I was busy with these things." Mu Tiexin, who followed Mu Li, looked at Mu Li with a big bag and asked curiously.
"It's something that sets traps. If you encounter dangerous beasts, you should be able to use them." Mu Li said casually.
"Then... I'll help you recite it. Anyway, I'm very strong, so nothing is wrong now." Mu Tiexin said honestly without caring or asking anything in detail.
During the few days we spent together, this young man gave everyone a good impression. Although he was a little honest, he was good to others and won everyone's favor.
Among the five, Mu Lei was the elder brother of the late Lingtu period. Mu Tiexin was a little older and honest to others and was very popular. Although Mu Li was a little silent, his strength and calm attitude also made several people feel at ease.
As for the younger Mu Qingshuang and Mu Yuner, they are like sisters. When they get along with each other and work, everyone helps each other and gets along well.
Half a day later, Mu Li and the other two, who were slowly separated from everyone, were walking in a dense forest in a little relaxed manner.
"Brother Mu Lei, did Old Man Mu really make it a good idea? There are really no wild beasts here? We finally wanted to show it, but we even acted separately. It would be too embarrassing to go back empty-handedly!" He had never encountered a powerful beast, and occasionally the small wild beast was also solved by Mu Lei's sword, and Mu Qingshuang couldn't help but complain.
"What we said is that we should show it at least! Otherwise, we would go back like this, which is much worse than the Mu family's children in previous years." Mu Tiexin also said.
Afterwards, everyone complained a few times, and even Mu Li did not refute it.
Listening to the complaints of the few people, Mu Lei was also a teenager's heart and couldn't help but feel itchy.
After all, everyone's plan changed and they began to go deep into the woods, preparing to catch the head and go back.
What the few people didn't know was that there were two people staring at them not far away.
"It seems that I am preparing to go deep into the woods, which saves me the effort." A black shadow covered by a black cloak looked at the few people who changed their direction, and said in a gloomy and old voice.
"Are you just a few little guys? I'll get it done in a few strokes. That's so troublesome." A middle-aged strong man with a big knife in his back was next to the man in black, and said with some dissatisfaction.
The man in black robe said in a calm tone when he was dissatisfied with the man: "Sorry, Lord Zhao, this time the matter is a bit complicated. Please forgive me and be patient."
"Hmph, if the leader hadn't asked me to listen to you, I wouldn't care about this. You can do it. Call me and deal with them in minutes." The man looked at the man in black who bent down and whispered in a dissatisfaction, and said in a dissatisfaction, turning around and leaving directly.
However, the man in black robe was not angry at the man's behavior. He ignored the man who left, but carefully followed Mu Li and his group again.
The five people, who were not sure that the danger was almost at risk, began to encounter various wild beasts shortly after changing their routes, and gradually became much stronger than before.
Although they were still no match for several people and were easily solved, their emotions were aroused and they couldn't help but deepen.
