I became the Counterpart of the Winner in a Period Novel-Chapter 320 - 292: Zhao Family Five Tigers 2

As soon as Mengzi released the dog leashes, the three watchdogs launched like arrows from a bowstring toward the trio on the valley road. They were accustomed to this task; if they did it well, their master would give them bones at night, so they were especially diligent.

When Xie Yunhai noticed the dogs pursuing them, he immediately changed direction and positioned himself behind Jiang Mingyue, shining his flashlight directly into the dogs’ eyes. But the dogs only paused momentarily before pivoting and charging forward.

Jiang Ming’an had only one thought: Hurry! As long as they ran fast, they wouldn’t bite his sister.

"Yueyue, are they chasing us? Am I fast enough? What about your Brother Xie? Is he following us?"

Jiang Mingyue: "..." If Brother Xie were any girl, they’d surely break up after tonight!

It’s just dogs, right? She can tame wolves, why fear dogs?

Then Jiang Ming’an heard a series of whistles, the familiar rhythm was exactly like the signals used when training Lightning in a past life—no, they were identical.

Jiang Ming’an thought his sister was too scared to distinguish between wolves and dogs, but would it work? Still, he was hastily pedaling the bike and had to go along with her whim; after all, Xie Yunhai was blocking behind them.

And Xie Yunhai at the back? This guy’s skill was incredible; even a circus wouldn’t dare to perform like him. The three dogs had their duties, one dog to one person. The front bike had Big Black and Big Gray assigned, but the rear bike broke the rules, blocking their path like a dragon dance. the brother and sister in front were too fast, making them feel like they couldn’t catch up even for two bones.

Moreover, the guy at the back was giving them no chances. His tricks, they could earn money at a temple fair with.

Xie Yunhai had crawled through many dog holes; though his father taught him ethics, resorting to such deeds was not noble, but necessity forced him. As a child, he had to find ways to survive.

He wouldn’t climb others’ walls unless he had no choice.

Even wall climbing depended on luck; with bad luck, you’d get bitten. At first he would get scared stiff, realizing no one protected him, he had to fend for himself to avoid getting mauled by fierce dogs, so he learned how to overcome them. Of course, he wouldn’t hesitate to deal with anything in one stroke. Today he was careless; he lived too comfortably, and his alertness dropped.

He should have brought his dog-beating stick.

Just as Xie Yunhai managed, with only a heavy-duty bicycle, to keep the three dogs from touching even his clothes, a string of whistles sounded ahead.

He saw the once ferocious dogs first pause and then completely lose their ferocity, becoming incredibly submissive, wagging tails, fawning to please their master.

Xie Yunhai had only one thought: He must get Yueyue to teach him this dog training tune to end his miserable life of being chased and bitten by vicious dogs.

Equally dumbfounded were Zhao Santu and his companions, lying on the mountain top.

"Mengzi, did you see clearly? Did they drug your dogs with a sleep potion?"

Mengzi, though reluctant to admit the prowess in dog training, still shook his head with difficulty. "No, it was the tune. Brother, I didn’t expect cultured people to be so mean. Maybe I should learn this tune too?"

Zhao Wuhu glanced at Mengzi: You?

Such disbelief was as thick as the night, and it couldn’t be hidden.

Mengzi: Well, slammed for not learning to read, it’s relentless.

"San Hu, what now?"

"What can we do? They’ve already reached my brother. Let’s go."

Just then, Zhao Hualan came running with a flashlight.

She was the little sister in the family, ranked sixth, and cherished. The Zhao Family parents disliked the first five as troublesome boys, increasingly doting on the last-born daughter, and the Five Tigers adored their soft, sweet-smelling younger sister, spoiling her since childhood.

"Third Brother, Big Brother wants you back. What happened just now? Xie Yunhai’s group brought us feed; why did you release the dogs to bite them?"

Zhao Santu and his companions froze immediately.

Mengzi quickly took the blame. "Hualan, it’s my fault. It was too dark, I mistook them for troublemakers seeking info about our Zhao Family Village."

Unknown whether Zhao Hualan believed him or not, she sighed. "I don’t blame you, it was too dark. Brother said next time, we should set up a barricade at the village entrance, letting designated guards interrogate before allowing entry."

Indeed, Xie Yunhai’s group had now met the rest of Zhao Family Five Tigers waiting at the village entrance.
