Chapter 112 - 106 Sparrow (Requesting Yue Tickets, Seeking Recommendation Tickets!)_2

After Da Bai had dug the pit, Wang Sheng took it out to chop wood, and along the way, they encountered Li Yongfeng, who was planting medicinal herbs with others.

The plantation was quite open and could be seen at a glance, it must be as Wang Sheng suggested, planted here for easy supervision.

He just greeted them and went straight into the forest to look for suitable wood.

Finding wood went smoothly, but it was on the way back that an accident happened.

Of course, the accident didn’t involve him but Li Yongfeng and his companions.

As they passed by, Wang Sheng noticed that all of them were looking up at the sky and were poised to act, seemingly preparing to deal with something.

"Brother Yongfeng, what are you doing?"

"Waiting for something... here it comes, get it, we must catch it!"

Two martial artists from the village had arrived, one was Li Yongfeng and the other Wang Shuwen, with some villagers too.

After Li Yongfeng spoke, these people instantly rushed in one direction.

It was then that Wang Sheng noticed there seemed to be a trap for catching birds, and in the trap were the Spirit Medicine Seeds given by Wang Sheng.

After Li Yongfeng and his group pulled down the cage trap, they pounced on it instantaneously and then—

"Sure enough, it can’t be caught!"

There was nothing in the cage.

"So what exactly happened?"

After seeing they hadn’t caught anything, Li Yongfeng reset the trap before answering Wang Sheng’s question.

"Just now, the medicine seeds we placed there were stolen by something. It took us a while to find out it was done by a sparrow, look, over there..."

Following Li Yongfeng’s gaze, Wang Sheng looked toward a tree in the distance where he saw a sparrow the size of a fist. The sparrow, noticing it was being watched, pecked at its wings and then looked down at everyone with a high and mighty gaze.

For some reason, everyone felt mocked by the sparrow.

"You see, we don’t know when that sparrow arrived, but it started snatching the seeds."

Wang Sheng was confused and said, "Wait, why say ’snatch,’ and is that sparrow really hard to deal with?"

"You saw it too, didn’t you? It’s not just difficult to deal with; it’s extremely tricky because it’s very fast."

Wang Sheng hadn’t seen anything when he arrived since he was focused on Li Yongfeng and the others, only noticing their disheveled state.

"As martial artists, you can’t handle it—how fast can it possibly be?"

Li Yongfeng sighed, "You’ll see soon enough. It will continue coming fast."

So Wang Sheng also concentrated on observing the sparrow and the trap.

Sure enough, the sparrow moved again.

Whoosh!

It seemed to turn into a streak of gray lightning, and almost in the blink of an eye, it flew from the tree to the trap, picked up a seed, and flapped away.

"Quick, here it comes!" Li Yongfeng shouted.

However, by then, the sparrow had already returned to its original branch.

"Wait a minute, Brother Yongfeng, no need to go after it again!"

Wang Sheng’s words were effective; Li Yongfeng and others immediately halted, then looked up at the branch, to see the sparrow back on it, swallowing something.

"Chirp chirp chirp～"

After swallowing the food, the sparrow looked at them again and made a mocking sound again.

"Yun Sheng, you see, that’s how fast the sparrow is, even I, being a martial artist, can’t react in time."

Wang Sheng nodded, recognizing that this sparrow was definitely not simple.

"With this sparrow here, we don’t dare to continue planting!"

"Let me handle it!"

Li Yongfeng and others couldn’t keep up with the sparrow’s speed, but that didn’t apply to him; otherwise, he wouldn’t have seen everything so clearly.

Now, it was just a matter of waiting for the sparrow’s next move.

At the same time, the sparrow, knowing these humans wanted to catch it, but with its speed, how could that be easy?

"Chirp chirp chirp～"

It made another mocking sound; the seeds were decent enough, no way it would leave too easily since these humans couldn’t catch it anyway.

Thinking this, the sparrow continued its actions.

Whoosh!

"Chirp chirp chirp～"

Humans wouldn’t think, but in an instant, I can take your seeds!

"Chirp chirp chirp～"

The sparrow saw the item inside the cage and wanted to snatch one and leave, but—

"Not bad strength there!"

The sparrow felt itself caught by a tremendous force, struggling but unable to break free.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp~"

It tried to peck at the thing holding it with its beak, only to discover it couldn’t move it at all; pecking harder might even hurt its own beak.

Wang Sheng looked at the sparrow he had in his hand and said, "Not only strong but also quite temperamental!"

The sparrow’s assault was negligible.

"Brother Yongfeng, I’ll take this sparrow back with me; you guys carry on!"

This sparrow clearly wasn’t ordinary and also fed on Spiritual Medicine Seeds—harmless to people and most likely a spirit beast.

He intended to take it back for research and see if he could tame it.

"Sure, take care!"

Wang Sheng called Big White over, then left with the sparrow, leaving Li Yongfeng and the others somewhat confused.

"Just now, did you see Yun Sheng’s movement clearly, Shuwen?"

Wang Shuwen rolled her eyes at Li Yongfeng and said, "We couldn’t even see the sparrow clearly, and you want to see the speed at which Yun Sheng caught it? What are you dreaming of?"

Li Yongfeng was silent for a while, realizing he had asked a silly question.

"Let’s just farm..."

...

When Wang Sheng arrived home, he began examining the sparrow he held.

After a long struggle, the sparrow had completely given up and remained motionless in Wang Sheng’s hand as if pretending to be dead.

"Roar~"

After unloading his wooden load, Big White came up to Wang Sheng, looking curious about the sparrow, seemingly pondering how to bite it.

"Get away, this isn’t food for you."

The sparrow had already encountered Big White, so it remained largely unresponsive, but seeing Big White’s desire to eat him, it chirped a couple of times.

Little thing, if I weren’t caught by the wings of fate right now, you wouldn’t even catch sight of my tail.

The two beasts didn’t speak the same language, so Big White could not understand what the sparrow was saying but could still sense the mockery.

"Roar~"

If Wang Sheng weren’t looking, it would have definitely eaten the sparrow.

Wang Sheng also picked up on the mockery and was curious.

"Wow, how does a little sparrow like you make your mockery so obvious..."

It was just a simple chirp, yet the mockery was unmistakable.

"Chirp, chirp~"

The sparrow scornfully chirped a few times.

This was a trick it had perfected after much research—wasn’t it impressive? It enjoyed watching those who disliked but couldn’t catch him.

Wang Sheng sensed something unusual in the sparrow’s responsive behavior.

It seemed that the sparrow could understand his words, not just simplistically, but like Big White, fully comprehending them.

"Can you understand what I’m saying?"

The sparrow did not move at all. If you want me to answer, then just ask! You think you can hit me?

Seeing the sparrow’s uncooperative attitude, Wang Sheng thought about how Big White was similarly stubborn.

So, he took out the seed he was storing, a Breakthrough four times Spirit Medicine Seed.

The sparrow sensed something immediately.

"If you answer, this will be yours!"

The sparrow nodded quickly; having lived in human towns for a long time, it could understand human speech.

Seeing this gesture, Wang Sheng felt confident in his assumption.

"You can really understand! Fast and small, and you can understand human speech... Sparrow, would you like to stay? I’ll take care of you..."

The sparrow: "..."

Had it misunderstood?

Humans wanted to use such things to tempt itself to waive its freedom?

Absolutely impossible!

Then Wang Sheng took out a Breakthrough five times seed...
