Chapter 315: Chapter 315 Blocking the Pig_1

"Mmm, delicious, delicious!"

Xian Qianling nodded incessantly, her eyes naturally welling up with tears as she ate the wontons, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks.

Xian Qianling’s grandmother had passed away when she was in junior high, and she spent most of her time at her grandparents’ place, rarely visiting her grandmother’s home. But every time she did, her grandmother would personally cook a bowl of wontons for her, a taste that was the most precious delicacy in her memories!

Meanwhile, Qi Gaojie and Zhang Zhaoyuan were also blubbering and weeping as they devoured their food with gusto.

After finishing their meal, the three found that none of those terrifying things had happened to them, which only made Xian Qianling even more curious about the old lady’s identity.

Once the four of you were sated and quenched, the old lady got on her electric scooter, took a turn, and drove slowly toward the other side of the road. The sound of her knocking on the bamboo tube still echoed through the air, "Dong, dong dong..."

As the mist gradually cleared, Xian Qianling turned to look at you and asked, "Who exactly was that old lady just now?"

You shrugged and said, "If I said I don’t know, would you believe me?"

"Don’t you know a lot about these things? How could you not know, and besides, you seemed so familiar with her."

"A wise man once said, ’To know is...’"

"Cut it out, cut it out, who are you trying to fool with your baby bottle level of culture?" Xian Qianling glanced around and asked, "Where to next?"

"Where else can we go, of course, back to the dorm to sleep. If we get back any later, the dorm will lock up, and I don’t want to climb up drainpipes again."

With that, you turned and walked toward the direction of the school. Xian Qianling stretched out her hand toward your retreating back, then let it fall, sighing deeply.

What Xian Qianling and you didn’t know was that the entire scene had been captured on the DV in Zhang Zhaoyuan’s hands...

The next morning, Wu Chao had someone send over invitations. The invitations said they were for all members of the supernatural detective society, but in the end, only Zong Wangyue and Jin Qi agreed to go.

Zong Wangyue arrived quite late, and therefore you and Jin Qi waited for him in the car. As Zong Wangyue approached with his panda eyes from a distance, you happened to see Qi Gaojie and Zhang Zhaoyuan passing by, so he called out to them.

"Are you guys free today?"

"Yeah."

"Great, get in!"

The wedding location was in the countryside to the west of Yuhang, about a half-hour drive from where you were.

When you arrived, you found the whole village abuzz with excitement. Men, women, and children had been mobilized, and every house was adorned with red lanterns, basking in festivity.

"Wow, what a big gesture, it’s like the whole village is getting married," marveled Zong Wangyue upon seeing it.

And Qi Gaojie, holding the DV and filming, said, "Judging from this setup, they must be planning something big."

"What kind of thing?"

Zong Wangyue turned his head to look at Qi Gaojie.

The car had brought them all this way, and the half-hour journey had been enough for everyone to get to know and become familiar with each other.

Qi Gaojie hadn’t spoken yet when Zhang Zhaoyuan pointed at something in the distance and said, "Look, something ran out, and a lot of people are chasing it."

You had just parked the car in a temporary parking area and also turned your head to see that there indeed was something running towards you in a nearby alley, followed by a group of people chasing excitedly, most of them teenagers, with a few children among them.

You took a closer look, only to find that the creature barreling towards you was actually a spotted pig!

The spotted pig was massive, yet when it ran, it was no slower than a man.

Zong Wangyue, upon seeing it, couldn’t help but exclaim, "Is that a pig? It runs faster than Liu Feixiang!"

"Brother-in-law, block it off in front, don’t let it run into the mountains!"

At this moment, a voice that made you feel depressed came from the pig-chasing crowd.

The temporary parking lot was right by the mountainside, and not far away was a rather dense forest. Indeed, it would be troublesome if the pig got in there.

"Zongzi, let’s block it as well."

Upon your suggestion, everyone laughed and nodded in agreement, finding it amusing. They all rolled up their sleeves and headed toward the pig some dozens of meters away.

Originally, you all were prepared for a major showdown with the pig, but it turned out to be much craftier than you had imagined. Because you had blocked the path to the mountain, it instead charged directly into a mud pond on the side, hoping to enter the forest through there.

"Damn, is that really a pig?" Zong Wangyue shouted at Qi Gaojie’s DV camcorder, "My friends watching, this is absolutely the smartest pig I’ve ever seen in my life!"

"Everybody surround it!"

A group of people quickly encircled the entire mud pond, and the pig seemed to realize its predicament, starting to circle within the mud.

"Brother-in-law, we’re lucky to have you, or else this pig would have escaped."

Xian Qianzhong approached you, somewhat out of breath, and patted you on the shoulder.

You were too lazy to quibble with Xian Qianzhong over the "brother-in-law" moniker; this stubborn guy seemed to have made up his mind that you were indeed his brother-in-law.

You said to Xian Qianzhong with a smile, "It’s just a pig, is it really necessary to make such a big fuss?"

"You have no idea, this pig is damn nimble. After breaking out of its pen, it turned the entire village upside down. It’s essential for today’s wedding, irreplaceable."

You shrugged and asked Xian Qianzhong, "So what now? It’s in the mud pit, and in this cold winter, nobody will want to go down and get it. Besides, who can outwrestle a pig that weighs over four hundred pounds in a mud pond?"

Xian Qianzhong looked at you and grinned cheekily, asking, "Brother-in-law, do you know what I do for a living?"

"How would I know if you don’t tell me?" you replied with a roll of your eyes, clearly annoyed.

Xian Qianzhong actually teased, "You’ll find out soon enough."

At this point, two burly men walked over, dragging behind them a large net made of thick hemp rope.

"Boss, the rope is ready."

Hearing them call Xian Qianzhong ’Boss,’ you couldn’t help but be surprised; you hadn’t realized this guy was such a big deal.

Xian Qianzhong grabbed the hemp rope net with both hands and gave it a strong tug. To the astonishment of those watching, he began to spin the net around. The net twirled in the air a few times, and then Xian Qianzhong flung it toward the pig some ten meters away.

As the net accurately ensnared the pig, cheers erupted all around!

The pig seemed to realize something was amiss and frantically struggled. However, the more it fought, the more it ensnared itself, and Xian Qianzhong took the opportunity to pull on one of the ropes viciously, instantly drawing the net tight and capturing the pig completely.

"Come on, everyone pull together!"

With a call from Xian Qianzhong, a dozen or so men came over, and everyone grabbed onto the thick hemp rope, dragging the pig up from the mud pit.
