Chapter 312: Luck's Assistance
As for what Qin Bi said to Qin He?
Whether true or false, it must be Qin He's fault; after all, she has been restless time and again. In that case, just attribute every bad thing to Qin He. If someone appears and you pick up money, that is good fortune favoring you.
They were catching spirit-duck fowl properly, but the moment Qin He arrived, the summoning began by count. Since luck leaves no trace, who else could it be blamed on but her?
When some luck arrives, just play dumb; accept good fortune and take good things as they come. Qin Bi, Qin Tang, and others had been quietly catching spirit-duck fowl; though it still took effort, it was nearly like receiving them for free.
As a result, the wretched Qin He arrived, and luck fell into place exactly as it should—however much luck belonged here, that much appeared.
Qin Bi blamed Qin He; even if it wasn't Qin He's fault, it was still her fault. Even if it was misplaced anger, Qin Bi still took it out on Qin He. By saying this, even Rong Yan and Jiang Xu grew to dislike Qin He.
In the small space of the Beast Realm, one relies on opportunity and luck. Qin He caused trouble, so no one could stand the sight of her.
"Young Master Su," Qin Tang said bluntly, "we have a small opportunity. We were originally with our eldest cousin, and our luck was not bad, but Qin He called our eldest cousin away. Can you join our team? There will be benefits for you."
Young Master Su and the Second Young Master of Su exchanged a glance. For their Guogong Prefecture, a small opportunity was optional. Still, since the people of Qin Yan Marquis Prefecture had asked, they might as well join.
"We don't need benefits," the Second Young Master of Su said cheerfully, waving his hand. "What do you need us to do? Just say it."
Qin Tang hesitated; he didn't want to offer benefits either, fearing that once the summoning truly worked and spirit-duck fowl appeared, the Second Young Master of Su would regret his words.
Qin Lang almost said they wanted to try catching spirit-duck fowl; if summoning failed, so be it. If Qin Bi summoned a river and drew a hundred or so spirit-duck fowl, then the Second Young Master of Su could say he didn't need benefits.
It would be unkind not to warn them. Qin Tang said, "We want to catch spirit-duck fowl and rely on Young Master Su's luck. With just our group, we can't catch many. When our eldest cousin was here, we caught more."
Young Master Su was surprised: "Spirit-duck fowl?"
The Second Young Master of Su, a food lover, said, "Huh?"
Spirit-duck fowl?
Qin Lang did not forget to stir up trouble against Qin He. He said, "Qin He won't allow it; she insisted on competing with us for our eldest cousin, so we couldn't catch any spirit-duck fowl either. Young Master Su, do you want to try catching spirit-duck fowl with us?"
The Second Young Master of Su rolled up his sleeves: "Count me in."
The other young masters of the Su family also said, "We'll catch them too."
Young Master Su nodded: "Fine. How many spirit-duck fowl? Where do we catch them? Lead the way."
Qin Lang ran to find Qin Bi. Then Qin Bi, Qin Lang, and Rong Yan led the way, seeking an open sandy area.
As for telling Young Master Su and the others that they had previously caught many spirit-duck fowl? Unnecessary. If Qin Bi activated the summoning treasure and a river appeared but drew no spirit-duck fowl, that would be empty talk. A big mouth is not to be tolerated.
After walking about half an hour, a vast expanse of sand lay before them. Qin Bi stopped, took out the summoning treasure, and activated it.
The people of Guogong Prefecture were bewildered. Were there spirit-duck fowl here? It didn't look like it. The Second Young Master of Su scanned the surroundings with his eyes, worried his vision was poor, while the other young masters of the Su family looked left and right.
Holding the summoning treasure, Qin Bi activated the summon. Immediately, a river larger than before appeared on the sand.
Young Master Su blinked. Just then, a large flock of spirit-duck fowl ran out from the sand, waddling toward the river with quacking sounds. Judging by the sight, even the Second Young Master of Su was stunned.
"There must be five hundred spirit-duck fowl," the Second Young Master of Su said, looking at Young Master Su. As he finished speaking, his chin nearly hit the ground.
Good heavens, this is a small opportunity? What a scam.
They had prepared themselves for a small opportunity, coming only to help and expecting no benefits, with no mental preparation at all. Yet here came this scene—could five hundred spirit-duck fowl be a small opportunity?
Everyone from Guogong Prefecture stood stunned. Qin Lang happily exchanged a glance with Qin Xun and said to Qin Tang, "Brother, we can catch spirit-duck fowl again."
Qin Tang was equally excited; Rong Yan beamed with joy; Jiang Xu stepped forward to encircle them.
Qin Bi quickly produced a teleportation array, smaller but still more efficient than catching spirit-duck fowl one by one. After Qin Bi set up the array, Qin Tang signaled Young Master Su and the others to intercept the running ducks and drive them into the teleportation array.
How abundant was their team's luck? It was like filling a basket. A flock of spirit-duck fowl and fish-duck fowl was herded together, so tightly packed that most of the spirit-duck fowl took flight, a huge, fluttering mass.
Qin Bi, delighted, stamped her foot once, immediately activated the teleportation array, and sent the spirit-duck fowl to Rong Wang Prefecture.
This pile was considerable. Qin Bi turned to Young Master Su and the others, who were still dazed, and said, "I'll take this batch of spirit-duck fowl; the next batch will be for you and Qin Yan Marquis Prefecture. Young Master Su, how does that sound?"
Young Master Su watched another flock of spirit-duck fowl running from afar, his mouth hanging open in astonishment. The Second Young Master of Su nodded repeatedly: "No problem. We're not outsiders; just give us a few dozen."
Only this short while ago, he had changed his mind, no longer saying he didn't want benefits.
Unfortunately, the Second Young Master of Su still thought luck too simply. Young Master Su had not offered a teleportation array, so Qin Bi simply produced another one. This time, the people of Guogong Prefecture knew how to catch them: drive them into the teleportation array and send them off.
There were so many spirit-duck fowl that they piled up and took flight.
Qin Bi asked the people of Guogong Prefecture, "Shall I send them?"
Young Master Su waved his hand: "Send them."
Qin Bi activated the teleportation array and sent the spirit-duck fowl to Guogong Prefecture. The Lady of Guogong Prefecture was strolling in the courtyard, accompanied by maids and nannies, when she heard a "bang." A flock of spirit-duck fowl landed on the open ground in the courtyard.
The Lady of Guogong Prefecture paused only an instant, thinking of the spirit-duck fowl from Qin Yan Marquis Prefecture. She took her small handkerchief and directed: "Quickly close the main gate and catch them. Oh, we can finally have spirit-duck fowl to eat."
Immediately, the entire Guogong Prefecture grew busy; adults worked, and children worked too.
The sandy area in the Beast Realm's small space became lively. Qin Bi sent about two hundred spirit-duck fowl to Guogong Prefecture in one go. Young Master Su and the young masters of the Su family, with their keen eyes, could roughly count them.
Having received so many spirit-duck fowl at once, they all felt embarrassed and eagerly drove the next batch of spirit-duck fowl toward the teleportation array for Qin Yan Marquis Prefecture. The spirit-duck fowl, quacking in panic and losing their way, ended up crowding into the teleportation array.
Qin Tang, Jiang Xu, and the others were stunned. Qin Lang said, "Is it this powerful with the luck of Guogong Prefecture assisting us?"
The young masters of the Su family listened in confusion. Qin Bi immediately activated the teleportation array and sent the spirit-duck fowl to Qin Yan Marquis Prefecture. Next, everyone would be so delighted they'd be dazed; the more spirit-duck fowl were teleported, the more came running.
They couldn't catch them all; they simply couldn't catch them all.
Qin Bi had only a few teleportation arrays left, so Young Master Su produced several more.
