Chapter 172 - Guan Chibei's 'Big Purchase'

Wild duck eggs were everywhere. They were big and green as they lay on the ground.

Guan Chibei took a step forward, and the yin energy on his body spread out and enveloped the reeds. Therefore, the wild ducks moving through the reeds lost their vitality and stopped inside.

Guan Chibei picked up a wild duck with one hand. It was the end of autumn. This wild duck was even fatter than the previous one. One duck was fatter than the other. His arms were sore from carrying them.

Guan Chibei picked up ten wild ducks and wrapped his hands around the thinnest part of their necks. He carried them home as if he was holding a bunch of grass.

There was too much prey. He could not finish hunting in one go.

Wild ducks: I'm held by the neck so I can't breathe.jpg

He could not finish carrying those wild ducks with both hands. Guan Chibei carried a basket up the mountain, and there were seven or eight wild ducks in the basket.

The wild ducks were not tied up or knocked out. They were stuffed into the basket on his back, but they did not move at all. They did not fly away!

On the first trip down the mountain, everyone in the village saw the dozen wild ducks he had brought down. Their eyes widened.

"The Guan family's Chibei is really amazing…"

"Are they going to soar into the sky? Look, so many wild ducks!"

"Oh my, the Guan family is leading better lives by the day…"

Guan Chibei said calmly, "The wild duck nest I found last time became bigger again."

Everyone could only envy him for his good luck.

As he walked back to the Guan family, some of the village girls saw the prey Guan Chibei was carrying. Their eyes lit up and their cheeks flushed. They stammered as they greeted Guan Chibei.

"Guan… Sixth Brother Guan…"

"Hello, Sixth Brother Guan."

"Sixth Brother Guan, you're so good at hunting…"

The girls who had mentioned how good Guan Chibei was on the day of the Guan family's triplets' one-month-old celebration all started to talk to him.

Some were bold. They didn't hesitate and went to Guan Chibei's side to try chatting with him. "Sixth Brother Guan, you're so good at hunting. Did you bring the prey to the city to sell? How much did you sell them for?"

Guan Chibei's expression was calm as he nodded to everyone. He did not pay special attention to any woman and did not answer this question.

"Sixth Brother Guan, I'm Xixi from the Xu family in the village. You know me, right?"

One of the girls even took the initiative to introduce herself to Guan Chibei.

Guan Chibei did know them. The village was only so big, so who wouldn't know them? Guan Chibei nodded, but he did not speak to the others. He turned around and entered the Guan family's courtyard.

Guan Chibei brought the wild ducks to the duck pen in the backyard.

He had been tidying up the various livestock pens in the Guan family's backyard during this period of time so that he could raise all sorts of livestock when winter was approaching.

As soon as the wild ducks landed, they immediately started quacking. Originally, wild ducks were very fierce and knew how to fly. If they weren't tied up, they would fly past the duck pens.

However, Guan Chibei turned around and left, ignoring them.

Just as the wild ducks were about to escape, suddenly… in the house closest to the backyard, there was another burst of yin energy that was exactly the same as that man's!

"Quack…"

Although that yin energy was a little weak, it was formed by the combination of three bursts of yin energy. It still enveloped the Guan family and suppressed all the wild ducks.

The wild ducks collapsed miserably. They could not escape.

Guan Chibei went up the mountain again without any psychological burden. This time, he went to the wild duck land and started picking up wild duck eggs.

The last time, the Guan family really liked wild duck eggs. Eggs could be safely stored in the winter, so it was best to pick up more.

The basket was filled with dry grass. Guan Chibei picked up the wild duck eggs and placed them on the dry grass one by one. The duck eggs were stacked and filled the basket.

After stacking a few layers, Guan Chibei lay another thick layer of dry grass. This way, even if there were many layers, the eggs would not break easily.

After filling the wild duck eggs, Guan Chibei went back up the mountain. He even brought a large basket with a layer of rags inside.

Guan Chibei searched carefully among the dense reeds. He found a small wild duck that had just hatched and placed it in the basket!
