Chapter 206: Bitter Meat Scheme
After two hours of walking through the woods, at midnight the group of hunters in front of them stopped and set up camp to rest and tend to the butterflies they caught.
The youth hid behind and secretly observed.
Ying Wuxin waited for five people, hid behind the young man, and monitored the situation of the entire venue.
Seven hunters, including a middle-aged man who led the group, wore an eyepatch that covered one eye, and several scars on his face, as if he had been injured by an attack by something, and looked very fierce.
"Two people keep vigil, the others hurry up to rest, and continue to hurry tomorrow morning, the sooner this big butterfly comes out, the better." The one-eyed man said.
The others said yes and quickly ate something, five people lay down to sleep, and two began to get up and patrol the neighborhood.
The young man looked ahead for a while, leaned on the grass, slowly pillowed his arms, and seemed to fall asleep.
Li Zhengdao smiled faintly and said, "I should be pretending to be asleep." ā
Several other people nodded one after another, naturally agreeing with this opinion, since this young man followed the team and was so sneaky, he must have to do something at night, otherwise there was no need to be so secretive.
Time passed, and the two men in charge of patrolling got tired and began to rest against the trunk of the tree, and after a while, the two sat on the ground and took a nap against the trunk.
After a while, the young man who had been pretending to be asleep slowly raised his head, and a smug and strange smile appeared on his face under the light of the camp fire.
Quietly getting up, the young man twisted his hands and feet closer to the camp, walked to the side of several hunters, and secretly rescued a big butterfly tied up by the rope, and released it directly on the spot.
In the process of tying the butterfly's wings, the burned wounds had recovered, and with a few flaps of its wings, it disappeared into the woods.
The sound of the big butterfly flying woke up the two people on patrol, and with a scream, they rushed over to the young man, and the other hunters then woke up, and hurriedly watched the butterfly, and punched and kicked the young man.
"Bastard, come to steal our butterflies again, grandpa won't kill you this time?"
While beating, he also scolded angrily.
"Liu Ling, why are you again, not to mention the butterflies in the Flower Butterfly Restaurant this time, you dare to come here to let us go, do you want to die. The one-eyed man got up, with a big knife in his hand, and said with a fierce face.
"The big butterfly is about to be eaten by you, and there will be no butterflies in the future, what else do we have to rely on, I am saving everyone. The young man named Liu Ling was beaten and rolled on the ground, screaming and saying.
"If you don't eat, it's gone, don't worry about our, there were no big butterflies here before, don't you have a good life?"
"You are short-sighted and greedy for money. ā
"I'll fuck you, and dare to scold us for letting go of a big butterfly, do you know how much we're going to lose? A burly man kicked Liu Ling in the stomach and kicked him out.
"I have money, I'll give you money. Liu Ling stretched out his hand and said.
Several people stopped beating, Liu Ling took out a silver ticket from his arms, and said: "This is one hundred taels, I brought so much, can you release all the butterflies, and I will give you money when I go back." ā
"Thank you, from now on, the grievances between us will be written off. The one-eyed man snatched the silver ticket from Liu Ling's hand, carefully identified the flame that was about to be extinguished, then folded it and put it in his arms.
"You-" Liu Ling said angrily.
"You let go of several of our big butterflies before, and this time it is a one-off payment, and from now on, we don't owe each other, but if you come to sabotage our affairs again, next time it won't be a hundred taels that can be settled. The one-eyed man squatted down, grabbed Liu Ling's hair, lifted his head, and sneered.
"Let's go, let's leave first, lest we be discovered by the Demon Butterfly. ā
Liu Ling was still on the ground, everyone extinguished the flames, and quickly left with things, Liu Ling lay on the ground, screaming softly and painfully.
"These hunters are truly abominable. Sun Xiaoman said with a look of resentment on his face.
Bai Miaozhen said: "It's a pity that this is a struggle between secular people, and it is inconvenient for us to intervene, and Liu Ling's behavior, from a certain point of view, is indeed wrong." ā
Sun Xiaoman was silent for a while, in fact, she also knew that Liu Ling's behavior, if it was investigated, could be convicted in accordance with the law, because the big butterflies hunted by the hunters were already private items, and Liu Ling let them go without permission, which was tantamount to robbery.
Li Zhengdao glanced at Ying Wuxin and said, "What do you think of Brother Wuxin?"
"It's not bad, in terms of acting, he is much stronger than Feng Lian, at least part of this injury should be real. ā
As soon as these words came out, the two women and Wang Banxian were stunned, and looked at Ying Wuxin in confusion.
Li Zhengdao nodded slightly, "That's true, this young man's behavior is obviously wrong, if he really wants to let go of the butterflies, he can take them aside first, release them all, and release them in place only if he unties one, the butterfly is so big, it will naturally wake up the hunters after taking off, since Liu Ling can secretly follow him for so long without being discovered, he shouldn't be so stupid, he can't even think of this, and the hunters beat him, obviously scruples, and several times aimed at the hands and feet under the vital parts, without much effort, it was obviously a fraud." ā
Ying Wuxin smiled and gave a thumbs up and said, "Awesome, Brother Dao, you have finished what I want to say." ā
The two women glanced at each other, and when they came to their senses, their faces turned red with guilt, but Wang Banxian didn't have any guilt, and asked curiously: "Then what is he doing this for?"
"Since it's acting, it's naturally for others or other creatures to see. "There should be no heart.
Li Zhengdao also nodded slightly.
"Who else will come?" Wang Banxian was even more curious.
The fire in front of him disappeared and became dim, and in the darkness, Liu Ling's screams became louder and louder, and after a while, the sound of whistling air currents sounded over the woods.
One by one, huge black shadows flew over in the night and flew towards Liu Ling below.
"That's-" The two women and Wang Banxian were both shocked, this black shadow looked so big, and its movements were very similar to butterflies fluttering.
"It's the big butterfly, silence. "There should be no heart.
A few people looked ahead quietly, and several big butterflies had already landed on Liu Ling's body, closing their wings, not knowing what they were doing.
Call.
A strong wind howled, and a large net fell from above, covering several big butterflies lying on Liu Ling's back.
The big butterfly fluttered and flew up, but the big net was immediately held down by several black shadows that rushed out.
"Young master, you can come out. A dark shadow said.
"Grandma's, it hurt me so much when you hit me with a dog slave just now. Liu Ling scolded.
"Young master, there is no way to do it, it is you who ordered us to work hard. ā
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and pull me out, these big butterflies are tickling me to death. ā
Two black shadows stepped forward, opened a corner of the big net, and dragged Liu Ling out.
"Hurry up, it's coming, remember to say to the owner of the restaurant with the flower butterfly, this time the price will increase by one percent, otherwise I will sell the butterfly to other restaurants." Liu Lingdao.
"Haole!" the black shadow agreed, and as soon as he collected the big net, several people worked together, dragging the big butterfly in the net and running to the depths of the woods, and soon disappeared.
"It'sā"
Sun Xiaoman and Bai Miaozhen were dumbfounded, just now they were pitiful and concerned about Liu Ling, an enthusiastic young man, but they were shocked by Liu Ling's insidiousness and speechless.
"What a cunning boy, how did he know that if he was beaten, the butterflies would come, what were those butterflies doing on him just now?" Wang Banxian was puzzled.
"Animals have the habit of licking their wounds, if I'm not mistaken, those big butterflies should have been helping Liu Ling lick their wounds just now, this is an enthusiastic help, but it's a pity that these big butterflies have been deceived. "There should be no heart.
"These big butterflies seem to have a certain understanding of Liu Ling, otherwise it would be impossible for them to fly here from the valley to lick his wounds. Li Zhengdao's eyes shone brightly.
"Next, keep looking, we should know. ā
Liu Ling lay on the ground and continued to scream, the sound was not loud or small, but in the dark and secluded forest, it could clearly spread far away.
Call.
A strong wind howled, and another huge black shadow flew over, it was a big butterfly, but this butterfly was bigger, and its body was as thick as a big dog.
Flying into the woods, the big butterfly landed on the side.
"Are you alright?" a girl-like voice sounded.
"I'm sorry, not only did I not rescue your companions, but I also implicated several big butterflies and were captured by them, I'm useless, I'm a waste, I'm dragging you down. Liu Ling buried his head on the ground guiltily and thumped his fists angrily.
"Those people are too cunning, I'll heal you. The big butterfly stepped forward.
"No need, I have medicine, I can heal my own wounds, you go back quickly, be careful of being caught by them, now there are a few Taoist heroes in the town, I heard that it is very powerful, you have to be careful, don't send fruits to people who go into the mountains overnight in the future, those people won't take your affection, and if you want to express kindness in this way, they won't care at all." Liu Ling coughed.
"I've seen them and they're all great, but I don't think they're necessarily that bad. ā
"You are not human, you don't understand human beings at all, they are Taoists, just cultivators who take money to do things, and now that they have received the reward, they will definitely come into the mountain to kill you, they don't have any love, you absolutely can't trust them. ā
The big butterfly hesitated, "I-"
Bang bang bang.
Ying Wuxin clapped his hands and walked out of the darkness, and said with a smile on his face: "Wonderful, wonderful, Liu Gongzi, this trick is really wonderful, with this method, how many butterflies have you cheated, how many butterflies have you caught, and how much money have you earned?"
"Who are you?" Liu Ling's face changed drastically, and his tone also changed, "What nonsense, what kind of bitter tricks?"
"Daoxia should be unintentional, it was you who invited us to hunt the demon butterfly, don't you know?"
Demon Butterfly was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "Liu Ling, what's the matter?"
"Fluttershy, he's slandering me, don't listen to his nonsense, he's here to kill you, you get out of here. Liu Ling panicked.
Click.
There was a thunderclap, and a silver lightning bolt burst down from mid-air, illuminating the field and striking the ground out of a pit of earth.
"I want to kill you a little demon butterfly, but I don't need my heartless brother to do anything in my thoughts. Li Zhengdao floated out and said arrogantly.
"Dao Sect!" Demon Butterfly said in horror.
