It was quite evident that the bird calls made by Yamamoto Motoichi were the secret code he used to communicate with his underlings.
No sooner had the sounds of his bird calls faded than a creaking noise came from the seemingly abandoned forest keeper's shabby hut; the small broken door was opened from the inside.
There were indeed people living inside!
Despite having anticipated such a scenario, Liang Fei still found it quite surprising to witness it.
What surprised him was the patience of those living there: despite being indoors, they made no sound whatsoever. Even if someone passed by, no one would ever dream that there were actually people residing within.
The door of the hut was first opened a crack, and two heads poked out. After realizing the visitor was Yamamoto Motoichi, they opened the door completely. Then, two subordinates emerged from the hut, nodded towards Yamamoto Motoichi, and respectfully said, "Mr. Yamamoto!"
