"Brother Liang, how do you say you can catch a live leopard?"

While patrolling the streets, Zhao Lin asked Liang Song.

Liang Song is a serious hunter, and he knows more about hunting than himself, the second knife who is a halfway monk.

Liang Song glanced at him strangely, "Catching leopards is all for that skin, what are you going to do?" ”

"There is a medicinal herb in the prescription I practice, which is the blood of a beast. Master said that leopard blood works best, so I wondered if it was possible to get it. ”

When it comes to his absolute privacy, Zhao Lin made up a reason.

"The prescription for your practice is quite strange."

Liang Song thought for a while and said, "There are indeed leopards in Baitou Mountain, but it is too difficult to catch them, let alone catch them alive." ”

"The only way is to wait for the rabbit, use fresh pork and mutton as bait, and then put it down, or hide and wait for it to appear, and shoot it with a bow and arrow."

"However, the leopard is extremely vigilant, easily refuses to take risks, and only eats fresh meat, which must be replaced every day. may be busy for ten days and half a month, and nothing is gained, so no one wants to do this kind of loss-making business. ”

"So difficult?"

Zhao Lin was a little disappointed, thinking that he couldn't have so much time to spend catching leopards in the mountains, and that was the territory of the beard, in case he was blocked by them, it would be troublesome.

Liang Song suddenly patted his head, "By the way, now that we have money, we can find someone to do these things." ”

Zhao Lin's eyes lit up, "You mean to invite someone?" ”

"Yes!"

Liang Song nodded and said, "In the past, there were often leather merchants and medicinal herb dealers who came into the mountains just to buy a certain kind of medicinal herbs or animal skins. Generally, they will pay a very high price, so that everyone is willing to do it. ”

Zhao Lin stroked his palm and said, "Great." There are so many hunters in Baektu Mountain, let them work for me, wonderful! ”

"What part-time job?"

"It's what it means to work hard."

Zhao Lin said that he would do it, but it was inconvenient for him and Liang Song to come forward in this matter, so he asked He Qingquan for help.

He Qing is old and frail all year round, and he is incompetent to catch quickly, but he has experience in doing these things.

He went to the medicine hall in the town of Paektu Mountain and explained that he wanted to buy a live leopard, and kept ten taels of silver as a deposit, and then posted notices everywhere, and soon spread the news to all villages and towns.

Baitou Mountain, Hejiatun.

"Fifty taels of high price to buy the leopard, do not seek the integrity of the fur, just live, half dead...... Okay? ”

"Lisha Town, Chongyuan Hall."

In front of the big tree at the head of the village, the village head, He Laokan, read aloud to the notice on the tree.

Dozens of men, women, and children gathered under the tree, listening intently to his reading.

"Uncle Kan, is this notice really fake? Would someone be so stupid as to pay fifty taels of silver to collect money leopard? A man in a sheepskin shirt said.

"That's it, the price is worth a strange beast." There is also humanity next to the sheepskin shoulder.

He Lao Kan stretched out his hand and nodded at the end of the notice, "See, there is the seal of Chongyuan Hall here, and it can't be faked." People collect live leopards, which are no easier to catch than foreign beasts. ”

Sheepskin Shoulder nodded, "It's true that live leopards are not easy to catch, but the price is still high. ”

"Uncle Jin Bao, isn't it good to bid high?" A teenage girl giggled.

Sheepskin glanced at her, "You don't understand, what if we spend a long time trying to catch the leopard, and people don't recognize it?" ”

"When the time comes, a person will appear out of nowhere, and he will be willing to receive it for five taels of silver, will you sell it or not? Sell at a loss, don't sell and smash your hands. ”

"There have been unscrupulous furriers who have done this kind of thing before, but don't you have to ask clearly?"

He Lao Kan stroked his gray beard and said, "Jin Bao, why don't you go to the town and ask Chongyuantang." ”

"Okay, I'll go now!"

Jin Bao dropped a sentence and strode in the direction of the town.

Half an hour later, Jin Bao hurried back.

The people who were watching under the tree just now were basically there, and they shouted from afar, "Jin Bao, how is it?" Is it true? ”

Jin Bao grinned, "Really! Chongyuantang said that people even paid a deposit, ten taels of silver! ”

When everyone heard this, they were all in good spirits.

"Great! We have to do a big job, and we can't let other villages take this opportunity away. ”

"It's just about to be autumn hunting, so let's take the lead with the money leopard!"

"The head of the golden cannon is surnamed Jin, and the golden leopard is also surnamed Jin, I think this matter is okay......"

……

This afternoon, Zhao Lin, as usual, touched the fish in advance.

When he returned to Liuhemen, there was a boxing competition in the courtyard, which was the regular competition of the apprentices.

Zhu Huaishan was sitting on the sidelines with a few disciples watching, and when he saw Zhao Lin coming in, he smiled and beckoned: "Come, sit down, maybe you will have to take an apprentice next year." ”

Zhao Lin obediently walked over and sat down, watching the apprentices in the field compete in martial arts.

It's been a few days since he's competed.

The main reason is that although he is a force realm double, the two force realm triples in the apprentice are not his opponents, and the strength gap is obvious.

Zhu Huaishan simply refused to let him participate again, so as not to cause psychological burden to others and hit his self-confidence.

Zhao Lin came late, and after watching the boxing competition for a while, it was over.

Zhu Huaishan was quite satisfied with the process, especially for the two new apprentices, and really praised a few words.

After the venue was vacated, Zhao Lin moved his body, walked to the equipment rack and took a "Zhenting".

Zhenting is a short wooden stick made of mahogany wood that resembles a rolling pin.

Doctors use it to dredge qi and blood to patients, reduce swelling and relieve pain, and martial artists also use it to rub the meridians and tendons to achieve the purpose of training bones and strengthening tendons.

Zhao Lin held Zhenting and sometimes rubbed his body, sometimes slapped his whole body, and practiced for half an hour before stopping.

After a short break, just as he was about to practice the Liuhe stick method, there was a knock on the door outside.

Knock knock knock......

Zhao Lin used to practice close to the gate, so that he could listen to the movements outside.

Before the knock on the door, he had already heard the steady and powerful footsteps of three people, and it was speculated that it should be a young and middle-aged martial artist, most likely a man.

But when he opened the door, he realized that he had guessed wrong.

The first thing that came into view was an old man with frosty white hair and long eyebrows and sideburns, holding a dragon head crutch in his hand, his waist was straight, and his demeanor was like that.

Behind the old man stood a pair of middle-aged men and women, the man had a resolute face, not angry and arrogant, and the woman was petite and had good eyebrows, and it could be seen that she was a beauty when she was young.

The first feeling that these three people gave Zhao Lin was: very strong!

They don't have a strong energy, nor do they have strong blood and energy, their breath is continuous, poised, peaceful and upright, but it makes people have an irresistible thought.

"Dare to ask who the three seniors are looking for?" Zhao Lin unconsciously used honorifics.

The old man smiled slightly, "Zhu Huaishan is here, right?" Let him come to me. ”

"Those are ......"

"You just said that we are from Yanyun Mountain, and he understands."
