Blending of Planes: I am leisurely farming

Chapter 14: Fishing in troubled waters

"This is the blockade area of ​​the Explorers Guild. It's dangerous ahead. Please leave."

At the entrance of the coal mine forest, a three-person patrol team discovered something unusual and stepped forward to stop a group of big men who were trying to force their way into the blockade area.

"Danger? What a joke! You young brat, you didn't even know where I was when I was wandering in the mountains, why don't you go home and jump high to suck my milk?"

The leading big man laughed loudly upon hearing this, looked at the three young explorers opposite, put his hand to his chin, mocking the height of the people opposite, and made a sucking sound with his mouth, which caused a sneer from the people behind him.

There were about seven or eight men in this group, all of them were strong and muscular. When they saw that their group was stopped, they stopped and started to mock them.

Sean, who had arrived at the nearby back slope early, recognized them. This group of big men were hunters from the area southwest of Pelican Town, led by the hunter team's captain, McCaroo.

Looking at the situation, for some reason, there was a conflict with the Explorers Guild.

"You! You!" A member of the patrol team was furious and pointed his finger at the hunters, trembling.

"What do you mean? You are so capable. The whole forest has been blocked for such a long time and the problem has not been solved. I want to see what dangers are in there."

A burly man behind McCarre stepped forward, ignoring the warning looks from the patrol trio, and provocatively pressed his chest against the team member's outstretched hand.

"If you don't have the ability, just get out of the way and let your grandfather go in and take a look."

"That's right, that's right, you cowardly kid, get out of the way." The people behind him started to make a noise.

His straight chest pushed forward, and the outstretched hands of the team members were in a dilemma. The overwhelming momentum became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

After all, he was young and hot-tempered. The team member pushed him back and shouted, "Rules are rules. No one can go in today."

The sturdy man took advantage of the push and staggered back a few steps, then collapsed on the ground.

Understanding what he meant, the two hunters behind McCaroo rushed forward, lifted up the slumped man's arms, and shouted:

"Yo~ They beat people up. These people from the Explorers Guild are not responsible. They blocked the forest and cut off our livelihood, and they still beat people up."

"No one can leave until there is an explanation today. He is the one who beat the people." The hunters were immediately outraged and glared at each other, as if this matter would not be over until there was an explanation.

The rough voice echoed in the sky for a long time, and a few townspeople came over after hearing the sound. They didn't dare to get close, but looked at it from a distance, pointing and talking.

Sean on the back slope ate the melon silently and observed the situation around him.

It's a pity that even in this situation, the scouts on the watchtower did not let this conflict affect their duties. They still monitored the surrounding environment and did not take advantage of any opportunity.

The idea of ​​taking advantage of the situation and sneaking into the blocked area was abandoned, and Sean decided to wait and see.

"There's a situation at the entrance to area A1. Someone is causing trouble. Please give us instructions."

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, the captain of the patrol team reported to the watch on his wrist.

The scene became eerily quiet, and everyone was waiting for someone who could speak to come out.

After a while, a middle-aged man wearing an eye patch walked out from behind the coal mine forest, and climbed over the two-meter-high fence with a kick of the iron fence.

After sending away the young people from the Explorers' Guild who were surrounding him, he looked at MacKalu and said:

"McKalu, why bother with young people? I know all your thoughts. Feng Lin's compensation will be paid on time in the spring." The middle-aged man with the eye patch paused and said in a dignified manner, "You also know the rules of the Explorers' Guild."

"We are just kidding. We brothers are a little anxious because spring is coming soon."

McCarrell stepped forward and laughed. Under the gaze of the middle-aged man, his voice became lower and lower, and his head lower and lower, just like a mouse encountering a cat. The scene of a big man lowering his head and admitting his mistake awkwardly was really hilarious.

"I accept the rules. We will report to the mayor tomorrow. Tell him why we brothers are needed. We will do the hard labor this week." Seeing that he could not get out of it, McCarrell gave up.

Seeing the conflict gradually disappear, Sean couldn't help but feel anxious. Such a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters is rare.

Suddenly, Sean discovered that at the bottom of the hillside in front of him on the left, near the iron fence, there were two figures hiding in the weeds and approaching the iron fence.

"Abigail, why don't we go back? It's getting dark." One of them looked around anxiously. The dim sky made her retreat.

"Jenny, we're just taking some pictures from a distance. There's no danger. Don't you want to produce evidence in front of Haley and the others? Prove that there really is a monster here, so that they don't believe there is a monster here." The man in front said, holding up a camera.

"Besides, we finally waited for those hunters to come and cause trouble, and of course I couldn't have done it without fanning the flames. This is a rare opportunity, I will protect you. You also know that ordinary men can't get close to me."

It turned out to be the little nurse Jenny and Pierre's daughter Abigail.

These two mischievous guys planned to take advantage of the commotion to sneak into the coal mine forest.

Sean secretly worried for them. They were like a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger. He had to think of a way to make them give up this idea without exposing his own existence.

Got it! Sean came up with a plan.

He took out a firecracker from the space, lit the fuse, and threw it in the direction of the two figures.

He quietly moved to the other side of the watchtower.

These improved firecrackers were part of the preparations Sean had made these days, so that after entering the forest, he could light the firecrackers to scare away wild beasts as a last resort. Unexpectedly, they would come in handy now.

"Bang!" A loud explosion filled the entire sky.

The attention of everyone present, including the scout in the watchtower, was focused there. Abigail, who was halfway up the fence, was frightened and fell down, hitting the ground with her butt.

"Ah, be careful with the camera. I borrowed it from Haley with great difficulty."

Jenny behind her was also in shock. She looked at Abigail who had fallen and asked, "Are you okay?"

"We've been discovered, run! Jenny!" Abigail ignored the pain in her butt and quickly turned over and climbed up using her hands and feet.

"Here's the camera. Let's run separately. Whoever can go ahead can go ahead. Hurry!" Looking at Jenny who was still in a daze and at a loss, Abigail took Jenny's hand and started running with her.

"Hurry, run over there." He pointed to a mountain covered with dense weeds and said, "Remember to find a place to hide."

I ran towards the open lake area.

"Ah, wait for me, Abigail." Jenny was at a loss. She watched Abigail gradually go away, gritted her teeth, turned around and ran towards the mountains.

"Reporting to the captain, the two men have fled separately. One turned behind the hillside at the three o'clock direction, and the other fled towards the direction of Xingyun Lake at the six o'clock direction." The scout on the watchtower reported the location.

"Got it. Keep watching and report your location in time." The two girls were each being chased by two members of the Explorers Guild.

The instigator of all this, Sean, had no mercy on the girls and was instead somewhat pleased with himself for keeping the two girls away from danger. He took this opportunity to climb over the fence set up by the Explorers Guild and entered the coal mine forest.
