After going back and forth for half a day, the situation had reached a deadlock. As soon as Yang Kai released his grip, General Si Chen would rush towards the fruit tree, as if he wanted to break a few of the fruits, causing Yang Kai to become extremely annoyed.
Moreover, this guy also knew how to stall for time. Every time Yang Kai grabbed its neck to negotiate with it, it would always agree, but in the blink of an eye, it would back out.
However, speaking of which, talking about credibility with a chicken made Yang Kai feel quite sad.
Yang Kai’s heart was filled with anger, thinking that if not for the many people who saw this stupid chicken fall into his territory just now, he would have thrown it into the Mysterious Small World and destroyed it.
Since he couldn’t use force, he could only resort to force. Yang Kai grit his teeth and said, “This time, this King admits defeat, so tell me what you want to do to calm this situation? Let me warn you first, don’t go too far. If worse comes to worst, we’ll both die together. If this King doesn’t have a good time, you can forget about seeing the sun tomorrow!”
General Si Chen’s eyes darted around and he let out two ‘cuckoo’ sounds, obviously understanding what Yang Kai was saying. Unfortunately, he couldn’t speak human language and couldn’t communicate with Yang Kai.
Yang Kai stared at it for a long time before slowly letting go of its neck.
This time, General Si Chen didn’t fly towards the fruit tree, instead standing in place and combing his feathers with his mouth. Opening his wings, he shook them before tilting his head and staring at Yang Kai while circling him.
Yang Kai’s eyes followed it closely, his face filled with vigilance.
After circling a few times, the Great General Si Chen finally flapped his wings and his fat body gently bounced up and down. Yang Kai almost thought he was going to go back on his word, but soon his face became as black as the bottom of a pot.
This stupid chicken actually used his own head as a chicken nest and sit on his head!
How could this be tolerated? Yang Kai stretched out his hand and grabbed it, “Get down!”
General Si Chen was caught, but his two claws were still tightly gripping Yang Kai’s hair, refusing to let go. Yang Kai struggled with him for a while, but was unable to get him off, causing his hair to become disheveled and his scalp to hurt.
Yang Kai was speechless…
General Si Chen, on the other hand, let out a proud cry as he twisted his fat butt, found a comfortable position, and climbed onto Yang Kai’s head. Not only that, but he also used his beak to gently brush Yang Kai’s messy hair.
“Fine, you win!” Yang Kai was extremely angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it wasn’t like he was losing a piece of meat, it just seemed a bit indecent. After all, no matter who it was, a chicken lying on their head wouldn’t look too good, so he simply let it be. As long as he could make today’s matter a small one, all of this effort was nothing.
Thinking about this, Yang Kai couldn’t be bothered to argue with it. Thinking about how he had been fighting with this stupid chicken for half a day, he couldn’t help feeling amused.
He walked over and picked up the feathers that had been knocked off General Si Chen’s body. These were all evidence of his crimes. If Zhou Zheng were to see them, he would definitely be punished.
“Just lie down and don’t touch my fruit, or else I’ll fight you to the death!” Yang Kai leaned back against a fruit tree and warned worriedly.
General Si Chen ignored him.
One man and one chicken, both of them temporarily calmed down.
However, it didn’t take long for the Great General to lightly cry out a few times as he used his claws to pinch him.
“What are you doing?” Yang Kai woke up from his meditation and asked impatiently.
General Si Chen’s wings fluttered as he grabbed Yang Kai’s hair and dragged him in a certain direction.
Yang Kai frowned, guessing that it was trying to lead him in that direction. Standing up, Yang Kai followed its lead until he reached a fruit tree before letting go of General Si Chen.
Immediately after, it began pecking at a hole in the tree trunk, and the sound of pecking filled the air like a woodpecker.
Yang Kai was immediately amused, “Are you trying to eat something? You can’t eat it, you can’t eat it. Although there are still Jade Fire Silkworms on my fruit tree, Old Fang said we would keep them.”
The Great General wasn’t happy about this and called out loudly, probably because of the intense exercise he just had with Yang Kai.
“If I say you can’t eat it, then you can’t eat it. It’s useless no matter how much you scream,” Yang Kai remained unmoved. Letting it lie on his head was already a great kindness, so it would be unreasonable to eat his insects.
The Great General was silent for a few breaths before flapping his wings again and dragging Yang Kai towards a certain direction.
“Don’t grab me, I’ll walk on my own, damn it, it’s not that you don’t know how painful it is, right?” Yang Kai cursed as he walked in the direction it was leading, wanting to see what it wanted to do.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the neighboring fruit garden. The gardens here weren’t strictly divided, but everyone knew which fruit trees they should take care of, so it wasn’t chaotic.
As soon as they arrived, a young man came up to them and cupped his fists, “Brother Yang!”
The corners of Yang Kai’s mouth twitched as he cupped his hands in greeting, “Brother Hong…” He had been here for a month, so he knew more people other than Old Fang. As long as the surrounding neighbors weren’t too far away, they could be considered to have exchanged greetings. It was just that he is the closest to Old Fang.
The young man surnamed Hong in front of him was one of his neighbors, but when others saw a chicken using his head as a chicken’s nest, he couldn’t help feeling a bit shy…
“Why has Brother Yang come here?” The young man surnamed Hong asked, glancing at General Si Chen somewhat guiltily. He too had a share of the crowd surrounding the Great General.
Yang Kai didn’t know what to say, but before he could say anything, the Great General made a loud noise and pulled Yang Kai away again.
Walking up to a fruit tree, the Great General gently pecked Yang Kai’s head.
Looking at the hole in the fruit tree, Yang Kai immediately understood what it was trying to do, silently cursing in his heart. This stupid chicken was using him as a slave.
However, now that things had reached this point, he had no choice but to turn around and look at the young man surnamed Hong, “Brother Hong, the Great General is quite tired, so he’s a bit hungry. You know the situation on my side, there are only a few fruit trees, so I couldn’t find anything for it to eat, so It came here to ask for some food.”
Hearing this, the young man surnamed Hong showed a difficult expression, “To tell you the truth, Brother Yang, I only caught some insects last month, so it will take at least ten days before I can catch them again. I really don’t have any extra insects for Great General, why don’t you take him somewhere else?”
Hearing this, Yang Kai’s face sank, “Brother Hong, the reason the Great General is hungry is because he fell from the sky just now. I don’t know if he has suffered any serious injuries, but he has lost a lot of his feathers. Look at how beautiful these feathers are, it would be a pity to lose them. If the Venerable knows that the Great General was patrolling the gardens and suffered here. I don’t know if the Venerable will be angry or not, how will we be able to bear the consequences?”
The young man surnamed Hong’s face went pale, not daring to look at the golden feather in Yang Kai’s hand, mainly because he was feeling guilty. After muttering for a moment, he clenched his teeth and said, “Yang Kai is right, Great General has painstakingly patrolled the fruit garden, so we should cooperate. Brother Yang, please do as you please, this Hong will show great respect to Great General.”
“Cuckoo…”
Yang Kai grinned and pointed to his head, “Great General thinks very highly of you.”
The young man surnamed Hong forced a smile and stretched out his hand, indicating for Yang Kai to invite himself.
There was no need to stand on ceremony, so he took out the Hundred Refinements Incense, lit it, and gently waved the incense around the hole. This was not the first time he had done this.
Not long after, a red figure emerged from the hole.
General Si Chen stretched out his neck and directly pecked out the Jade Fire Silkworm, raising his neck and swallowing it into his stomach. This time, there was no need for General Si Chen to urge him. Yang Kai directly led it to another Fire Spirit Fruit Tree with a wormhole, and after doing the same thing, another Jade Fire Silkworm appeared.
The young man surnamed Hong felt his heart bleed as he watched from the side. Losing these two Jade Fire Silkworms wasn’t a big deal, it would only affect the growth of the fruit trees, but it wasn’t a big problem. Most importantly, if he were to capture these insects and bring them back to the Great General, he would have a chance to obtain the Open Heaven Pill.
But now, there was no hope for him to obtain the Open Heaven Pill. If the Great General didn’t hold a grudge against him, it would be a blessing.
After searching for three Jade Fire Silkworms in the young man’s fruit garden, Yang Kai saw that the young man’s face was turning pale and grinned, “Alright, that’s enough. Brother Hong, you can go now, we’ll take our leave.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange sound came from above his head, followed by a golden light falling towards him.
This golden light looked familiar, so Yang Kai reached out and took it. After the golden light dissipated, three round pills appeared in his hand…
Yang Kai blinked, somewhat dumbfounded!
The young man surnamed Hong stared, also somewhat dumbfounded!
In just an instant, Yang Kai put away the three Open Heaven Pills.
The young man surnamed Hong panicked, “Brother Yang, those three Open Heaven Pills…”
Yang Kai looked at him solemnly, “What three Open Heaven Pills? What Open Heaven Pills?”
The young man surnamed Hong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Brother Yang, you can’t lie through your teeth. Just now, the Great General rewarded me with three Open Heaven Pills. Brother Yang, Brother Yang, the Great General rewarded all three of these pills to me. Why don’t you share some with me? This Hong won’t be greedy, you take two and I’ll take one!”
Yang Kai grinned and said, “You want to split the pills? Sure! Later, I’ll report to Manager Zhou that you and your group were chasing after the Great General, causing him to fall from the sky, losing a dozen or so feathers and breaking his bones. Now that he can’t even walk, he can only lie on my head, let's wait to see what Manager Zhou will reward you with!”
The young man surnamed Hong exclaimed, “How could it be so exaggerated? Don’t speak nonsense!”
Yang Kai said, “Whether or not I’m speaking nonsense, Manager Zhou will know…”
The young man surnamed Hong stared at him for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, “Brother Yang’s methods, this Hong has personally experienced them.” The main point was that he himself was in the wrong. No matter what, he was still a part of the Great General’s fall from the sky. If this matter were to be reported to Manager Zhou, he would not have a good end.
Yang Kai chuckled, “Does Brother Hong still want the spirit pills?”
“Go!” The young man surnamed Hong pointed to the side.
