Chapter 168 Barbecue
On his bike ride back to the city, Chang Kun checked his reward.
[Ding! 10/10 foxes captured, reward: Fox Thirteen Spices Barbecue Seasoning.]
[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 920 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 2350 meters.]
[Ding! Captured 1/1 Fox Fur Spirit, reward: Bloodline Sense: Can use blood medium to sense the approximate location of blood relatives.]
[The current host can sense prey weighing less than 940 jin (approximately 860 kg) within a range of 2400 meters.]
Chang Kun's eyes lit up. He had been envious of the Black Fox's ability to summon its offspring, but he never expected the system to reward him with a skill that allowed him to find his blood relatives.
My own blood relatives, my parents and younger sister, are all at home, so I don't need them at all.
He glanced at Cheng Rongjiang riding in front of him and remembered that Cheng Min had said she was separated from her mother and younger brother when she was a child. He thought he could try to help her find her family.
Back at the research institute, Cheng Rongjiang relaxed.
After this incident, he no longer wanted to get involved in fox farming.
Foxes are somewhat intelligent animals. If you want to raise them, you have to raise them from a young age to adulthood before skinning them and selling them for money. Just thinking about this, Cheng Rongjiang could picture the black fox's blood-jade eyes.
After chatting for a while, and finding nothing else to do, the two decided to skip work.
Having not been home for two days, Chang Kun first went to the courtyard house to check on the progress.
Zhu Youxu was replacing roof tiles with his two young apprentices.
"Master Zhu, here you go."
Chang Kun tossed a pack of Panda cigarettes upwards.
Zhu Youxiao grinned: "Boss, you're too kind. Every time we meet, you bring me a pack of cigarettes."
"This is the only package left." Chang Kun waved his hand. "You'll have to take care of this house of mine."
"That's only right. Others throw smoke from the roof beam down, but you throw it from the bottom up..."
After asking a few questions, Zhu Youxiao said that with the help of his two apprentices, Chang Kun's house could be repaired in ten days, and he could move in as soon as the furniture was in place.
Upon hearing about the progress, Chang Kun was overjoyed. He had thought it would take at least half a month to complete the project, so it seemed that the cigarettes he gave the carpenter had not been in vain.
After chatting for a few minutes, he turned and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
"What? Xiaoqing and the others were almost taken hostage?"
Hearing his mother tell him about the danger Chang Qing and Cheng Min encountered yesterday afternoon, Chang Kun was filled with lingering fear.
Unexpectedly, He Wu'an was dismissed from his post and then turned his hatred towards me and Cheng Jie. This was truly an undeserved disaster.
He has only himself to blame. He didn't discover that his subordinate had been hiding an enemy agent for five or six years, causing the organization to lose countless intelligence. He deserved to be dismissed.
Changqing was frightened yesterday, and today she stayed with her mother at the supply and marketing cooperative, behaving obediently and not daring to go anywhere.
Upon seeing her older brother arrive, she rushed to Chang Kun's side, tightly grasping his large hand with her small one. "Big brother, yesterday was really scary."
Chang Kun patted his sister's hair. "It's all over now. That bad guy has been arrested and locked up in jail. He'll never get out."
"But I'm still scared... How about you take me to see a monkey show?" Chang Qing finally revealed her purpose, looking at Chang Kun expectantly.
I heard that a new group of monkey trainers came to Wangfujing. The little monkeys are dressed like Sun Wukong from comic books. Xiao Mu went to see them last time and bragged about it to herself for a long time afterward.
"I thought you were really scared, but it turns out you just wanted to see a monkey show?" Chang Kun said, pinching his sister's nose, amused.
"Please, okay, big brother..."
The little girl knew that Chang Kun spoiled her, so she wouldn't dare to act spoiled or unreasonable with Liu Meifen.
"Alright, alright, I'll take you there, big brother."
These little girls are my own sisters, who else should I love more than them? I absolutely must raise my sisters with plenty of care and attention.
In another two weeks, we will move into the city, my younger sisters will start school, and in a few years, we will have to think about getting married.
These carefree years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Thinking of this, Chang Kun couldn't help but touch his sister's hair again, wishing time could slow down a little.
"Let's go see the monkey show, then we'll go find Cheng Min to play with." Chang Kun was a little worried because Cheng Min had been quite frightened yesterday.
"Yes, Sister Xiaomin stood in front of us all day yesterday, protecting us. She was so kind; she even played 'Eagle Catches Chicks' with us."
Chang Kun nodded and handed the two sacks of fox pelts to his mother: "Mom, find a good craftsman to make these pelts into scarves, hats, vests, glove cages and the like. They'll keep you warm in the winter."
"Hey! Good, Xiao Kun brought back so many things again." Liu Meifen happily examined the fox fur. "The fur is so soft, and the color is beautiful too."
I took Chang Qing to Wangfujing to see a monkey show, which excited her immensely. As we left, she kept turning back to look at me.
"Big brother, can you catch me a little monkey? I want to dress up as Sun Wukong!"
Chang Qing asked me to help catch a monkey when we watched a monkey show last time, and now he's brought it up again.
"Xiaoqing, you're all grown up now. You don't want to go perform in the circus, do you?" Chang Kun was a little worried as he looked at his younger sister's excited face.
"Can I do circus acts too?"
Chang Qing jumped up suddenly, gesturing with his hands: "Come on, little Wukong, show everyone how to jump through a fire hoop..."
That means she can't do somersaults, otherwise she would definitely be doing a few backflips on the street.
He strolled over to the school, where the gatekeeper recognized Chang Kun and knew he was a friend of the dean of students, so he opened the gate and let him in.
"Chang Kun, you're back?" Cheng Min smiled when she saw Chang Kun.
My father and Chang Kun went to the south of the city and haven't been home for more than two days.
Chang Kun nodded, circled around Cheng Min, and asked with concern, "Were you alright yesterday?"
"It's nothing, I was just scared."
While the two were talking, Chang Qing, who was standing next to them, remained silent, keeping his head down and watching the elementary school students playing on the playground.
They played games like throwing beanbags, kicking shuttlecocks, jacks, hopscotch, and throwing mud cannons.
This was the first time Chang Qing had ever seen so many children playing together. She couldn't take it all in, her eyes darting left and right.
"Xiao Qing, do you want to come to school?" Cheng Min asked with a smile when she saw Chang Qing's eyes light up.
Chang Qing was watching several children take turns playing shuttlecock when Cheng Min asked him a question. Without turning his head, he muttered, "I want to play..."
Chang Kun and Cheng Min: ...
This Xiaoqing thought that going to school was just for fun, and she didn't want to leave when she saw something fun.
"I haven't thanked you enough for protecting Xiaoqing and the others yesterday." Chang Kun said solemnly, looking into Cheng Min's eyes.
"Let's not stand on ceremony," Cheng Min said, looking back at Chang Kun with a smile. "I'm off tomorrow, so I'll cook for you."
"Tomorrow?" Chang Kun asked, puzzled. Tomorrow wasn't the weekend.
At that time, the capital city implemented a single-day weekend system, with one day off per week, usually Sunday.
"Tomorrow... is my birthday. My family never celebrates birthdays. Every time it's my birthday, I think of my mom and brother. But these past few days I've been dreaming that my mom says she's happy to see me doing well..."
Cheng Min paused for a moment before continuing, "I've eaten at your house a few times, so since it's my birthday, I'll cook you a nice meal."
Upon hearing this, Chang Kun immediately thought of the skill he had just acquired—bloodline perception—and decided to try it out using Cheng Min's search for her mother.
Then she remembered the barbecue seasoning she had been given as a reward, and thought that it would be better to have a barbecue than to have Cheng Min prepare a meal.
Cheng Min and the three girls were quite frightened yesterday, so she took the opportunity to take them out for a trip to relax.
"You don't need to cook. Let's go for a barbecue in the countryside tomorrow."
"Barbecue?" Cheng Min and Chang Qing asked in unison.
What is this?
Just hearing the name makes my mouth water.
