Dual Transmigration: American Prison, Surviving to a Fantasy Development Stage
Chapter 17: Killing Two People
Upon entering the courtyard, Lin Feng uncovered the yellow tarpaulin, and instantly a huge black bear came into view.
It's over 3 meters tall, and I estimate it weighs at least 600 kg.
Seeing such a big bear for the first time, Lin Feng couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Then Lin Feng touched the bear's paw and compared his own hand to the bear's; the size difference was about three times.
"Erniu, you managed to hunt such a big guy, and the key is you even managed to bring it to the city. That's really impressive."
Zhao Erniu didn't seem to mind: "It's alright, not too strenuous."
Lin Feng gave a thumbs up, only able to think to himself, "Awesome!"
"How much are you planning to sell it for?"
Zhao Erniu: "This bear is almost a demonic beast. How about 140 taels?"
Lin Feng: "Okay, deal."
In the cattle and horse market, these bear paws are top-grade bear paws; just four of them can sell for 50 taels of silver.
Not even counting bear bile, bear skin, bear meat, bear bones, etc., the price of 140 taels is not high.
Therefore, Lin Feng did not haggle and readily gave 140 taels.
Seeing the cash Lin Feng gave him, Zhao Erniu smiled憨厚ly, "Young Master Lin is so generous."
The transaction was completed. Zhao Erniu picked up the black bear with both hands and put it in the yard.
Seeing how relaxed he looked, Lin Feng felt a pang of envy; being born with superhuman strength was truly amazing.
The transaction was completed, and Zhao Erniu cupped his hands in a fist salute to Lin Feng, saying, "Goodbye, Young Master Lin."
Goodbye, remember to come find me if you find anything good.
"no problem"
Suddenly, with a loud bang, the street gate was kicked open.
Two men, one tall and one short, came into view.
Lin Feng glanced at the two men's black martial arts attire and immediately recognized them as disciples of the Tian Family Martial Arts School.
The two men looked at the giant bear in the yard and immediately smiled with satisfaction.
As he entered the courtyard, the tall man sneered:
"Finally caught you two!"
"Our Tian Family Martial Arts School controls the entire medicinal herb and animal hide trading market in Yongguan County."
Both buying and selling require a fee.
They actually dared to conduct private transactions behind our backs.
Do you really think the Tian Family Martial Arts School is a pushover?
Seeing this, Lin Feng didn't want to escalate the situation, so he said, "We really don't know. What should we do now?"
"Hmph, what should we do? We'll fine the black bear and make sure it pays the money it sold."
Besides, this isn't your first transaction.
"You two, each of you will be fined an additional 300 taels."
It's so dark.
Lin Feng: "I really don't have that much money. Could you give me a chance?"
"Give your mother a chance, but you don't have the money? Then you'll pay with your lives."
The word "resist" was still on his lips when Zhao Erniu's burly body shot out like an arrow.
His movements were so fast that he left only a blur, and the gust of wind he created made Lin Feng's clothes flutter.
The two disciples of the Tian Family Martial Arts School didn't even have time to draw their waist knives before their vision went black and their throats were locked tightly by a large, iron-like hand.
With a flick of his arms, Zhao Erniu lifted the two adult men into the air as if they were chicks.
The two men left the ground, kicking futilely in the air, their faces turning from red to purple, and veins bulging on their foreheads.
They desperately tore at Zhao Erniu's arm with both hands, their fingernails leaving only white marks on the bulging muscles, but they couldn't budge it an inch.
"Dare to touch my money, you deserve to die..." Zhao Erniu squeezed out these words through gritted teeth, his eyes flashing with ferocity.
Two sharp "snap" sounds rang out, particularly jarring in the quiet courtyard.
The two who had been struggling suddenly went limp, their heads drooping at an odd angle.
Zhao Erniu released his grip, and the two corpses collapsed limply to the ground.
He flicked the blood off his hands as if he had merely crushed two insects.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Lin Feng, who was watching from the sidelines, swallowed hard, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
Looking at the two corpses on the ground, and then at Zhao Erniu, whose murderous aura had not yet subsided, alarm bells rang in his mind—this matter could no longer be resolved peacefully.
Lin Feng hadn't expected things to develop to this point.
Now that things have come to this, it's time to prepare to flee.
Zhao Erniu said to Lin Feng, "I will handle Young Master Lin's body, but it will implicate you."
Lin Feng: "I'll handle the body. You should leave now."
"This...Young Master Lin"
"I have my own way."
Zhao Erniu felt somewhat embarrassed that Lin Feng had been implicated this time.
"This might implicate Young Master Lin."
Do you know about the charitable cemetery?
"I know that."
"From now on, we'll trade outside the city. I'll go to the cemetery every day at noon. If you catch any prey, wait for me there."
"Yes, Young Master Lin."
"Alright, I'll handle the body, you don't need to worry about it."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Erniu clasped his hands in a fist salute, pushed his cart, and left.
After Zhao Erniu left, Lin Feng couldn't wait to release the Black Lotus.
The two disciples of the Tian Family Martial Arts School and the big black bear all disappeared from the spot.
In an instant, before Lin Feng could react, he was enveloped by a warm, jade-like halo.
The halo seeps into every inch of skin, like a stream formed by melting snow in spring.
Lin Feng felt as if the pores of his body suddenly opened, and billions of cells, like seedlings that had been parched for a long time and were now receiving rain, danced and leaped with joy under the nourishment of this strange radiance.
It washes away the stagnation accumulated in the body.
After an unknown amount of time, or perhaps only a moment, fine beads of sweat began to appear on Lin Feng's skin.
The color was the same as before, a murky grayish-yellow, sticky like oil, and when it adhered to the skin, it emitted a pungent smell similar to rotting grass mixed with sulfur.
These were the impurities and filth hidden deep within the meridians, now being expelled from the body by the light.
As the last breath escaped with his breath, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes.
He felt light and agile all over his body again, and an unprecedented surge of power flowed through his muscles and bones with every move he made.
At the same time, Lin Feng also learned about the two men's identities and why they had been able to find this place.
Both of them were disciples of the Tian Family Martial Arts School.
Their names are Tian Guangwen and Tian Guangyuan, respectively.
He was in charge of the cattle and horse market in the west of the city, and his responsibilities included collecting fees and supervising the market.
See who hasn't paid taxes.
Both of them were at the second level of Body Refinement, in the Tendon Refinement Realm.
According to their recollections, they knew about Zhao Erniu's private dealings because someone had reported them.
The whistleblower was a hunter who entered the city with Zhao Erniu.
The two of them found this place by following Zhao Erniu.
The two men did not notify anyone else at the Tian family martial arts school when they came to block the door, in order to earn extra money.
In other words, currently only one hunter knows about the private deal between Lin Feng and Zhao Erniu?
Thinking of this, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
At least we don't have to run around anymore.
However, the hunter who reported Zhao Erniu is also a problem.
Currently, the whistleblower does not know Lin Feng's identity, but only Zhao Erniu's.
But with careful searching, we can definitely find him by looking for clues.
Now that two disciples of the Tian Family Martial Arts School are dead, the school is unaware of it. If they can just kill the whistleblower during this period, they can save themselves a lot of trouble.
What Lin Feng needs now is time.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng felt that this hunter could not be allowed to live.
Although Lin Feng only wanted to develop his skills safely and didn't want to kill anyone, things were different when his own interests and safety were involved.
At the same time, Lin Feng also learned the basic skills and swordsmanship of the Tian family martial arts school, and also obtained two swords and 40 taels of silver.
Overall, the results were good.
If you lack the strength, you have to be careful in everything you do. Besides, going back to the urban world is like going to prison. You're not free, so how can you enjoy life?
Ultimately, it stems from a sense of crisis caused by insufficient strength.
The way to eliminate this sense of crisis is to practice martial arts.
Then Lin Feng practiced the ninth standing posture.
The moment he took his stance, Lin Feng felt his blood and qi surging like a tide.
That power needed no guidance; it seemed to possess its own spirit as it surged and flowed through the meridians. It encountered almost no obstacles. The dormant tenth meridian was the first to be opened, followed by the eleventh... A series of barriers crumbled silently before this torrent of qi and blood, like ice melting in spring.
Just at the moment when the last, twelfth meridian was suddenly connected—
