Chapter 17 Conflict

 This black-bone chicken is quite fat.

Liu Mang sighed in his heart. According to his experience in the past year, generally a few chickens can provide 0.1 energy value.

After bleeding the black-bone chicken, he plucked the feathers off the chicken's feet, and then handed it to Qi Zhao to scald the chicken and pluck the feathers.

Then, Liu Mang's magic hand continued to reach into the chicken coop.

"Grrrrrr?"

"Grrrr!"

“Grrrrrr!!!”

The chickens in the chicken coop seemed to know that the end was coming, and they flapped their wings one by one to avoid Liu Mang's magic hand.

It's a pity that chicken power can't compete with human power? Not to mention Liu Mang, who has practiced sword skills, his hand speed and reaction ability have improved a lot than before, and he easily caught another white broiler chicken.

He put the knife on the chicken's neck and gave it a slight stroke, and the chicken quickly left this world.

Liu Mang looked at the translucent attribute bar in front of him. The energy value had not changed, and he knew that the attribute points obtained by killing this chicken were less than 0.1.

After killing two more in succession, the energy value jumped to 0.2.

After all thirteen chickens are killed, the energy value finally becomes 0.5, and every three chickens provide an average of 0.1 energy value.

Less than an hour had passed since Liu Mang finished killing tonight's chickens, and then he went to help Qi Zhao pluck the feathers. Another hour passed before tonight's work was finished.

Liu Mang returned home carrying a small bag of chicken offal given by Qi Dazui. Liu's mother had already gone to bed, with only a dim oil lamp on.

There were long-cooled porridge and salted dried radish on the table. Liu Mang didn't bother to heat it up, so he ate it up. After eating, he threw the bowls and chopsticks into the porcelain basin to prepare for tomorrow.

Wash again.

Liu Mang put out the oil lamp, sat on the bed, ate and prepared to lie down.

"Is Qi Dazui's business okay?" Liu's mother suddenly asked.

"It's not bad. I killed thirteen chickens tonight and gave me some offal. I'll fry them tomorrow."

"I heard from Xiaoshu that it's not easy to eat now. I'm wondering if I should go to the Black Bear Forest to dig some wild vegetables tomorrow..."

"Mom, what are you thinking about? I will join the Golden Tiger Gang in a few days, and I will not be short of money. You can take good care of yourself at home, which is the greatest help to me." Liu Mang objected without a doubt.

Just kidding, it’s more than ten miles back and forth to the Black Bear Forest, and there are wild beasts in the forest from time to time. Liu’s mother is old and not strong, so how could Liu Mang let her take risks?

After hearing this, Mother Liu did not insist, and the atmosphere instantly became quiet.

At this time, a familiar noise came from next door.

"What are you feeding me? Is this grass? Are you feeding sheep or cattle and horses?"

"Sir, these are the wild vegetables dug in the Black Bear Forest. There are so many people digging now that it is difficult to dig the wild vegetables..."

"Go away! I don't want to eat wild vegetables. You can go to the market tomorrow and buy me some pork!"

"Official, my family really has no money..."

"Then you don't know how to earn money by doing needlework?"

"The Hu family no longer wants us, so we can't do needlework..."

"I don't care, I just want to eat meat, ah ah!"

Listening to the familiar noises at Wang Laizi's house, Liu Mang gradually fell into sleep.

Early the next morning, he went to Qi Dazui's house.

Qi Dazui, Qi Zhaoshi, and Liu Mang pushed the cart to the nearby market.

The vegetable market is located on the stone road at the entrance of the abandoned temple and the temple. There are simple stalls made of wooden tables on both sides of the road.

Qi Dazui came to an area where meat was sold and started to clean up his stall.

Two plucked clean white chickens, chicken legs, chicken heads, and chickens were sorted on the table. Next to the table legs were several live chickens with their legs and wings bound, clucking and full of energy.

There are many people coming to the market to buy meat in the morning. Although prices are rising now, fewer people are buying meat. But with so many families in the outer city, there are always many who have a surplus.

Qi Dazui's stall is located relatively close to the entrance of the abandoned temple, which is a good location.

After a while, a man in his thirties wearing Tsing Yi and fat pants came to visit.

"Big mouth, how do you sell chicken today?"

"Chicken is thirteen cents and one tael, chicken feet are ten cents, and offal is six cents. If you pay in silver, I'll give you 10 cents more!"

"Why has the price increased again? It was only twelve cents yesterday!"

"I don't want to either. The price of chickens is also increasing every day!"

The man cursed, but still bought half a catty of meat. His mother-in-law finally got pregnant. Now she is the baby of the family, and she must supplement her meat from time to time.

Next, several people came to ask about the price. Some asked and turned around and went to other stores. Some just bought two taels of meat, probably to taste it.

However, no one patronized the live chicken next to it. After all, a whole chicken was expensive and not many people could afford it.

Liu Mang stood aside and watched, feeling a little disappointed. He also looked forward to having the opportunity to kill a few more chickens and accumulate some energy points.

After another half an hour, the customer flow gradually increased, and some people already came to ask about the price of live chickens.

However, at this moment, a loud voice spoke from outside: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, everyone, get out of my way!"

The man who was about to buy a live chicken was so frightened that he ducked aside.

Liu Mang looked forward with an unkind expression.

I saw a man with a broad body and round shoulders, messy hair, and the tail of his clothes rolled up to his chest covered with black hair. He had a big round belly, picked his nostrils, and forced his way to Qi Dazui's stall.

Next to him, there were two men of average build, obviously followers.

"Qi Dazui, business is good, how do you sell chicken?"

Qi Dazui's face looked a little ugly, but he still replied: "Thirteen coins and one tael..."

Before he finished speaking, the loud voice slammed his hands on the wooden table, causing the chicken on the table to fall off the table in an instant.

"What? Thirteen cents and one tael? Why don't you go and rob!"

"Why does the shop opened by Shen Laosan in the temple only sell twelve coins?"

Seeing everyone around him look at him, Qi Dazui's face turned blue: "I just killed him yesterday."

"You mean other people's chickens are not fresh?" The loud voice sounded like a bell, and there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I didn't say that, the price is here, if you find it expensive, go to another store!" Qi Dazui's voice was also filled with anger.

Looking for trouble, do you really think you have no temper?

Niu Er, who has a loud voice, refuses to give up: "Tell me clearly today why your chicken sells for 13 cents, while other people only sell it for 12 cents!"

"Unless you explain clearly, I will stay here and not leave!"

Niu Er threatened in a fierce tone, but when he saw the tall figure walking out from behind Qi Dazui, he was also stunned.

Why is Tieniu here?

Due to Liu Mang's great strength, many people in the surrounding villages knew him, and the rogue Niu Er naturally knew him too, and was a little wary of him.

"Tieniu, don't do too much..."

Halfway through his words, Niu Er couldn't talk any more.

A three-foot-long silver ring-headed knife was placed across the front of his neck, less than two fingers away.

Niu Er felt that his scalp was numb. How could this Iron Niu have such a violent temper and draw his sword at the slightest disagreement?

"roll."

The voice was not loud, but it sounded like the sound of nature to Niu Er. He hurriedly took two steps back and left with his two younger brothers without looking back.

Liu Mang looked at Niu Er's back, and realized that this guy was very straightforward and knew very well that a good man would not suffer the immediate consequences.

He had just seen clearly that this Niu Er was clearly deliberately looking for trouble today.

He must take charge.

Not to mention that Niu Er's behavior affected his ability to earn energy points, but Qi Dazui lived in the same village as him and was Liu Shu's uncle. He couldn't just watch as if nothing happened.

Mrs. Qi Zhao was a little worried: "Is Tieniu too cruel? There is no chance that Niu Er will come back."

Qi Dazui had a ruthless look on his face: "I'm afraid of him! He's just an idler and hasn't joined a gang, so I won't look down on him!"

However, his expression immediately changed.

The rogue Niu Er who had just left brought seven or eight people with him in an instant, all of them holding iron bars and surrounding them with sinister expressions on their faces.
