Chapter 101: Dog Pee and Mud
Chapter 101: Dog Pee and Mud
When he ran back to the gate of the yard and opened the small door, Su Chunfeng deliberately banged the small iron door with a loud clang. Then he led Lulu, who could no longer hold back, charging back to the roadside.
He knew that his parents would surely be awakened by the fierce roars of that beast Lulu and would definitely come out to see what was happening. Therefore, it was necessary to create the illusion that he had also just run out of the sales yard with Lulu to investigate the situation after hearing the dog’s unusual barking.
“Lulu, come back!” Su Chunfeng shouted.
Lulu, who had charged out dozens of meters with murderous intent, stopped in the middle of the dark road. He barked furiously at the minivan with its lights on not far away—Woof, woof! Woof…
“Come back!” Su Chunfeng was angry.
Only then did Lulu run back to Su Chunfeng’s side, somewhat unwillingly. But he still maintained an attack posture, letting out low, eerie, warning growls toward the distant lit minivan, baring his teeth with a murderous look, as if ready to pounce forward and fight at any moment.
At that moment, beside the minivan, a burly middle-aged man was struggling to drag the small-statured young mage who had already lost consciousness toward the car door.
Creak!
The outer door of the sales office opened.
Su Cheng strode out in a hurry: “Xiaofeng, what happened?”
“I don’t know,” Su Chunfeng shook his head and said. “That person seems to have been hit by a car, not sure what happened…”
“Oh my!” Chen Xiulan, who followed closely behind, covered her mouth in surprise upon seeing the scene—it was clear that the person the middle-aged man was dragging was limp like a corpse. When a person’s body is completely exhausted and has no strength, it is actually the most difficult to move.
“I’ll go take a look…” Su Cheng walked over with big strides.
“Husband! Don’t go!” Chen Xiulan called out anxiously.
“It’s fine!” Su Cheng waved his hand without looking back, saying as he walked, “Can’t just watch and not help.”
Seeing this, Chen Xiulan hurriedly said, “Xiaofeng, go with your father quickly!”
“Okay,” Su Chunfeng nodded and hurriedly strode after him.
That beast Lulu shot out, dashing ahead quickly and arriving first in front of the minivan, barking wildly at the middle-aged man who was struggling to lift the young man into the vehicle.
Su Cheng walked over and kicked Lulu away, then stepped forward with a frown and said, “Friend, what’s going on?”
The middle-aged man was now quite helpless, sweating heavily from the effort—although the young mage was not tall, he was still an adult. Trying to drag and lift him when he was completely limp and unconscious was extremely difficult. The middle-aged man had struggled for a long time just to get him to the car door. After opening the door, getting him inside was proving impossible no matter what he tried.
Hearing someone approach and ask a question, he turned his head to look at Su Cheng, his eyes immediately flashing with menace. He spoke in an unfriendly tone, “None of your damn business!”
“It’s you?” Su Cheng frowned.
At that moment, the middle-aged man seemed to be provoked by Su Cheng’s appearance. Suddenly, he tapped into some hidden reserve of strength. He stubbornly dragged the limp young man and stuffed him into the car like rolling a sack. Then the middle-aged man slammed the car door shut, turned, and roughly shoved Su Cheng aside with his shoulder. He opened the driver’s door and got inside.
Vroom! Vroom!
The minivan roared and sped off into the distance, soon disappearing into the vast night.
Father and son could only turn and walk back.
“Dad, do you know that person?” Su Chunfeng asked, somewhat puzzled.
“Hmm,” Su Cheng nodded. “His name is Yu Daqing. He sells tractors and small harvesters in Pingyang City… When the Fukang agricultural vehicle factory was selecting an agent dealer in our Pingyang City, they contacted him too. And his conditions weren’t as high as ours. But the factory representative wasn’t very satisfied with his shop location and site area, so they finally chose us as the sales agent. Last time when we were negotiating with the factory representative in the city, he was there too. He came to me privately afterwards, wanting to partner with us on this business. I refused.”
Su Chunfeng nodded as if understanding and asked nothing more.
The general reason was obvious; no need to ask. As for Yu Daqing hiring a mage to try to harm Su Cheng’s family and even the entire sales agency, that couldn’t be told to his father.
“Husband, what happened to that person?” Chen Xiulan asked with some worry.
“It’s nothing, go back to sleep,” Su Cheng waved his hand, his expression somewhat displeased—after all, he went over with good intentions to help but was treated like garbage. No one would feel good about that.
The couple walked back inside.
Su Chunfeng said from behind, “I need to pee…” With that, he turned and walked east along the base of the north wall.
“Remember to lock the door later,” Su Cheng reminded.
“Okay,” Su Chunfeng replied. “You lock the house door. I’ll go out through the main gate.”
He stood at the base of the north wall. Hearing the click of the house door being locked, he then looked around in the darkness and called softly, “Lulu…”
Whoosh!
That beast Lulu scurried over, wagging his tail and shaking his head as he circled Su Chunfeng.
Su Chunfeng pointed to the spot below the wall where he had laid the arcane array with blood and ordered, “Pee right here…”
Lulu tilted his head, wagged his tail, and didn’t move.
“Stupid beast, I said pee here!” Su Chunfeng gave him a kick.
Lulu whimpered plaintively and lay down in the grass at the base of the wall. In the darkness, he looked at Su Chunfeng with a bewildered expression, not understanding.
“Idiot!” Su Chunfen. “Take those two. We’ll need them for the ritual.”
Su Chunfeng shook his head in disappointment, untied his pants, and peed at the base of the wall.
That beast Lulu had already gotten up and scampered back. Unexpectedly, when he reached the western corner, he lifted his hind leg and let out a huge stream of pee, his butt high in the air.
“Damn it!” Su Chunfeng was furious. He shook his little brother, tucked it back into his pants, and walked over cursing. He tilted his head to the side, pursed his lips, and held his breath, looking utterly unwilling. He crouched down and grabbed two big handfuls of the wet soil from the spot where that damned dog Lulu had just peed.
Then, he walked back to the wall where he had drawn the arcane array earlier. With both hands, he smeared the mud soaked in dog pee onto the wall forcefully.
“Pah!”
After finishing this task, Su Chunfeng spat and walked back cursing, vigorously shaking his hands.
After that damned dog Lulu finished peeing, he squatted not far away on the roadside where there was some dim light. He tilted his head and watched Su Chunfeng with intense curiosity, his expression so genuine it was almost human, as if thinking: “Why does this little master have such a hobby? Should I find a chance to pee on his face later? To please him?”
“Get lost back inside!” Su Chunfeng angrily walked over and kicked Lulu.
Whimper…
Lulu tucked his tail between his legs and ran back plaintively.
Su Chunfeng entered the yard through the small door in the main gate and went to the platform in front of the south room. There was a small washing area by the wall here with a faucet connected to a water tank built on the roof. It was convenient for washing hands after repairing cars or sorting parts, and also for customers who came to buy cars or get repairs to use water.
He turned on the faucet and washed thoroughly with a loud rush of water, using a big handful of laundry detergent. Only then did Su Chunfeng sigh helplessly, shake his wet hands, and go back inside.
Who the hell in their right mind would want to play with stinky dog pee and mud!
It was only because this disgusting stuff, dog pee, was fast-acting, effective, immediately noticeable, and had no side effects for removing the traces and residual aura of an arcane array and esoteric technique.
Actually, Su Chunfeng had other methods to remove the traces and residual aura of the Dual Polarity Counter-Kill Array.
But those took more time and were troublesome.
He had just performed an esoteric technique with extremely strong lethal power. His mental energy was currently weak, making him both lazy and finding it difficult to perform another technique.
Moreover, such a big commotion could already be called a magical duel. The physiognomy expert who had laid this massive Feng Shui Magic Array here would surely sense it. Therefore, Su Chunfeng had to eliminate the traces and residual aura left after casting the technique in the shortest time possible. Otherwise, if that expert rushed over quickly and saw the “Dual Polarity Counter-Kill Array” and sensed the powerful residual esoteric aura, they could deduce the root cause of this magical duel with about eighty percent certainty. And they could be sure that the winning side of this duel was absolutely connected to the Fukang Combine Harvester sales agency.
Su Chunfeng’s identity as a mage would then be at great risk of exposure.
That wasn’t even the worst part.
If that mysterious physiognomy expert deduced, through the “Dual Polarity Counter-Kill Array” and the powerful residual esoteric aura, that this was Esoteric Arts…
That would be real trouble.
Without the residual arcane array traces and esoteric aura, even if a master of esoteric techniques came to investigate, they could only conclude one thing—the mage who set up the array and performed the technique on the opposite roadside was a very unlucky half-baked practitioner. His cultivation was insufficient, yet he arrogantly laid down an array and performed a technique. Unfortunately… he just happened to encounter an abnormal local change in the Heaven-Earth Five Elements energy field and thus suffered the most intense Natural Backlash, and so tragically lost his life.
Yes.
Su Chunfeng was certain that young mage would either die or become a vegetable.
This fool with not-high esoteric cultivation had already exhausted himself after laying the array and performing the technique. Yet he dared to be stubborn and continue performing techniques to duel with someone, and his opponent was a true master of esoteric techniques, a master of Esoteric Arts. Therefore, after suffering an attack from Esoteric Arts with extremely powerful lethality, the rapid death of his brain cells was a foregone conclusion.
Even an immortal couldn’t save him!
If the young mage’s death attracted the master who taught him esoteric techniques, and if his master was also a high-level expert, then this master could only suspect either that his foolish disciple was unlucky, had insufficient cultivation, and provoked a strong Natural Backlash, or he might suspect that the mysterious physiognomy expert who laid the Feng Shui Magic Array had taken action.
But it would only be a suspicion.
Unless this master was utterly unreasonable and wanted to fight to the death with someone.
Of course, even if two esoteric masters ended up in a death fight, it would have nothing to do with Su Chunfeng.
Leaning sideways on the folded bedding, the mentally exhausted Su Chunfeng had no desire to sleep. For one, he was on night duty watching the yard tonight. Secondly, he was still thinking about the massive Feng Shui Magic Array laid by that mysterious physiognomy expert—who was it targeting, and for what purpose?
As for the death of that young mage…
In Su Chunfeng’s heart, there was none of the self-blame, guilt, fear, panic, and other pressure-filled emotions that could drive an ordinary person to the brink after killing someone for the first time.
In his previous life in the Jianghu of Esoteric Arts, he had killed well over a hundred people using Esoteric Arts!
What was this?
At that moment, on that dark South Ring Road, two beams of bright headlight pierced the night.
Amid the roar of an engine, a Santana sedan screeched to a stop on the north side of South Ring Road, directly opposite the Fukang sales agency. A middle-aged man wearing a light gray casual Tang suit got out of the car. Standing under the night sky, the middle-aged man made a hand gesture with his left hand, slightly frowning as he carefully sensed the abnormal fluctuations in the Heaven-Earth Five Elements energy field nearby.
If Su Chunfeng saw this person at this moment, he would surely be surprised.
He knew this person in his previous life and had glimpsed him from afar since his rebirth—a native of Zhongzhou City, the provincial capital of Yuzhou Province. In the not-too-distant future, a famously renowned physiognomy expert in the Jianghu of Esoteric Arts, Shi Linheng.
