Chapter 8

Quack, quack, quack!

Finally.

He heard the call of the wild duck.

Water weeds could block the line of sight, but they couldn't block farming perception.

"Sigh, these damn wild ducks, calling every day, tempting us every day."

"Don't complain, wild ducks are too cunning; even if we hear the call, we can't find the wild duck's nest, so let's just fish honestly!"

"It's all because the grassland is too big and the grass is too high, otherwise we would definitely be able to find it."

Wan Ping'an heard a few complaints.

In the early fifties, there were large tracts of wasteland outside the Four Nine City, and the water weeds by the river were lush, providing a good hiding environment for wild ducks.

Large tracts of grassland made it difficult to find the wild ducks hiding in them.

If not careful, one might even fall into the water.

"Fortunately, I have farming perception."

"Even if there are water weeds blocking, and my eyes can't see the wild duck, I can still sense the exact position of the wild duck."

"Everyone, I'm sorry."

"You can only listen to the wild ducks calling, but I am going to catch the wild ducks."

"This season is exactly when wild ducks lay eggs; maybe I can also harvest a nest of wild duck eggs along the way."

Wan Ping'an glanced at the complaining people and turned to walk toward the large grass cluster by the river.

The water weeds were lush.

Some water weeds were as high as his waist.

Let alone wild ducks, even if a child ran in, they could be submerged in the grass.

Walking and walking.

A wild duck in front was startled and flew away.

"The monk can run, but the temple can't."

"The wild duck flew away, but its nest can't run."

Wan Ping'an rushed over and, according to the positioning of farming perception, soon found the wild duck's nest, with six wild duck eggs that still had residual heat.

"Great."

"Finally have eggs to eat."

"No chicken eggs, duck eggs will do."

Wan Ping'an picked out the wild duck eggs, put them all in his pockets, and continued to look for wild ducks.

"Look, everyone, did that young man find something?"

"The distance is too far, can't see clearly, it seems to be a few wild duck eggs, but the wild duck was scared away and will never come back."

"What a pity, it would be great if he could catch the wild duck."

"Finding a nest of wild duck eggs is just dumb luck, you still hope to catch a wild duck?"

None of the people fishing by the river thought highly of Wan Ping'an.

Wild duck eggs in the nest wouldn't run, but wild ducks were different, very vigilant, and would fly far away at the slightest disturbance.

Wan Ping'an didn't hear their discussion; he continued to look for wild ducks.

Soon.

His farming perception locked onto another wild duck.

It was right in the water weeds in front.

"Can't go over directly, otherwise, the wild duck will be scared away again."

"No gun, no bow and arrow, no slingshot, and can't get close, what to do?"

"Got it, I can use hidden weapon techniques to throw stones!"

Wan Ping'an remembered.

The Baji Fist he mastered was master-level, and he had used the gene potion; his strength and body control far exceeded ordinary people.

The stones he threw with his bare hands, within twenty or thirty meters, had power and accuracy not inferior to a slingshot.

He found a few small stones.

Aimed at the wild duck in farming perception.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Two stones were thrown one after another.

The first stone startled the wild duck, and it flew onto the grass.

The second stone accurately hit the wild duck's head, and the wild duck plunged down.

Wan Ping'an was excited and quickly found the wild duck he had hit.

The wild duck was just stunned, not killed.

If it were killed, the blood wouldn't drain out, which would affect the taste; taking it back alive, he could kill it whenever he wanted to eat it.

Harvested five more wild duck eggs and one live wild duck.

"Holy crap, look, everyone, did that young man catch a duck?"

"He really caught it, how did he catch it?"

"I saw it, he was holding a stone, more than twenty meters away, and smashed the wild duck to death."

"You must have seen it wrong, more than twenty meters, such a long distance, he threw a stone, it's not a gun, how could he hit the wild duck?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

The people by the river started to argue.

None of them believed that Wan Ping'an could hit a wild duck with a stone.

They stopped fishing and stared at Wan Ping'an, watching how he handled the wild ducks.

Less than five minutes later.

Wan Ping'an repeated the same trick, two stones, one to startle the wild duck, the other to stun it.

Caught three wild ducks.

Wan Ping'an didn't catch any more, enough for him to eat for a few days; the remaining wild ducks would be kept by the river, and when he wanted to eat, he would come back to catch them.

"Young man, are you selling the wild ducks you caught?"

Just as Wan Ping'an was about to go home, two people came over, looking at the wild ducks in his hands.

They couldn't catch wild ducks, so they could only buy them from Wan Ping'an.

"Sorry, I'm taking them back for my family to eat."

Wan Ping'an told a lie.

He didn't know the price of wild ducks; what if he got cheated?

The ones caught this time would be taken back to eat first.

After he found out the price, he would decide whether to sell them or not.

Anyway, the wild ducks were by the river; as long as he wanted to catch them, he could catch them at any time, no need to rush.

"How did you catch the wild ducks?"

Another person asked curiously.

"Secret!"

Wan Ping'an smiled.

Farming perception was unique to him alone.

Even if he said it, no one would believe it.

There was also the risk of exposing the system.

The Farming System must never be exposed, otherwise it would bring him danger; even the closest people couldn't be told, and the secret had to be taken to the grave.

Soon.

Wan Ping'an returned to the Sihe Academy.

"If the animals see my meat and wild ducks, I wonder if they will be tempted to death?"

When he arrived outside the main gate.

Wan Ping'an remembered that the group of animals in the courtyard would definitely not be reconciled to watching him eat meat!
