Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 149
Chapter 149: Vitality and Death
Qi Qiao Sang felt a little silly as soon as he asked this question.
If the old lady’s Beast Tamer level reached D level and received the support from her pet, it is possible.
But the old lady’s appearance is completely consistent with her natural aging at this age.
You should know that the age of a beast tamer who has received the support of her pet cannot be simply determined by appearance. A high-level beast tamer may be in his seventies or eighties and still look like a young man.
This also leads to fewer people on the road who chat up handsome men and beautiful women.
Because you are not sure whether the person who chats up is from your grandparents’ generation.
Of course, you can’t meet such people just by wanting to meet them.
However, there are many people who chat up people from the generation of your parents, which is often used as a joke to warn the public not to judge people by appearance, otherwise you may be the next social demise.
Given the old lady’s age and appearance, it is obvious that she has not received the support of her pet, so it is naturally impossible for her to hear the conversation that was specially lowered from such a distance.
Qiao Sang put on her shoes and stood up, asking the question in her mind: “Is the old lady ill?”
Apart from the smell of medicine in the room, she could not tell what was wrong with the old lady.
If a dying person suddenly becomes energetic, it can only be a terminal lucidity.
However, according to research, a terminal lucidity usually lasts for an hour or two or three hours, and usually does not last long. The old lady does not belong to this category.
The aunt was stunned at first, and then hesitated as if she thought of something, and said, “It’s normal for her organs to function poorly as she gets older.” She paused here and said, “Speaking of which, there is one very strange thing. On the 28th of last month, the old lady was unconscious and couldn’t eat anything. She went to the hospital and the doctor said that she would die tomorrow.”
“I was so scared that I called Mr. Jiang, the old lady’s son. Later, their whole family rushed over that day and were preparing to hold the funeral.”
“Who knew…” The aunt swallowed and said, “After they came, the old lady was actually fine. She looked much better than before. After the doctor examined her, he said that her physical condition had not improved. It was probably a last gasp. But more than half a month has passed and the old lady is still energetic.”
After saying this, she smiled and said, “I just said that. Don’t be scared. After all, the old lady is a beastmaster, and her situation may be different from that of ordinary people.”
“But when I went to the hospital for a checkup the day before yesterday, the doctor said it would only happen in the next few days. I guessed that the old lady didn’t have much time left, and the Ghost-Sucking Lamp wouldn’t be found for a while, so I reminded you.”
Qiao Sang was naturally not scared. Isn’t it just that someone who was about to die suddenly became well again? She has even experienced traveling to this world full of extraordinary creatures. What kind of bizarre things are unacceptable?
However, it is true that this matter is abnormal…
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and asked: “Did Mr. Jiang and his family come on the same day as the Ghost-Sucking Lamp disappeared?”
“Yes, that night the old lady’s granddaughter took the Ghost-Sucking Lamp out to play, and then lost it.” Auntie answered without thinking, obviously she was very impressed by what happened that day.
Qiao Sang’s heart trembled.
Something is wrong, too wrong…
Who would go out to play when the old man at home is declared by the doctor to be dying? Moreover, after hearing the news that the ghost-absorbing lamp disappeared, the old lady’s condition did not worsen but inexplicably improved…
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang asked: “Do you have the old lady’s granddaughter’s phone number?”
The aunt was stunned for a moment, took out her mobile phone and said: “I don’t have it, is Mr. Jiang’s phone number okay? They should be together.”
Qiao Sang smiled and said: “Of course, but I didn’t bring my mobile phone. Can
you write it on a piece of paper for me?” “Wait a minute, I’ll find some paper.” The aunt turned and prepared to go inside.
At this time, Qiao Sang reminded: “I remember I saw it on the table in the old lady’s room just now.”
…
After going down the stairs and coming to the shade downstairs of Unit 5, Qiao Sang took out the paper with the number written on it.
It is of course a lie to say that you didn’t bring your mobile phone. Who doesn’t bring a communication device when going out these days
? But she didn’t take out her mobile phone to make a call, but summoned Yabao.
“Ya!”
Yabao looked around excitedly, it finally came out again!
Just when it was about to run a lap to stretch its limbs, Qiao Sang stopped it in time: “Quick! Use your sense of touch to look at this piece of paper. There is an old lady on the bed next to it. Help me see what she has done.”
The sense of touch can only replay for about 10 minutes, so of course you have to hurry up and watch.
“Ya…”
Yabao retracted his right front paw that had just stepped out. Although he was confused about why he did this, he still put his paw on the paper obediently.
He closed his eyes and quickly recalled what happened ten minutes ago from the perspective of an observer.
A dark room.
Yabao looked to the side and saw an old lady lying on the bed.
There was an extremely familiar figure standing next to him. It was his own beastmaster.
“Ya!”
Yabao shouted excitedly.
Unfortunately, his own beastmaster ignored him while looking at the old lady on the bed.
“Ya!”
“Ya Ya!”
He ran to his own beastmaster again and tried to show his presence.
He still ignored him.
Yabao was stunned for a moment when he saw his own beastmaster staring straight ahead. Then he remembered that the scene in front of him was a replay of the paper.
Oh, the old lady.
Yabao remembered his mission.
He glared and turned his head to look at the old lady on the bed without blinking, trying to stare at her to make a flower.
But soon he was attracted by the figure next to him.
Hey, isn’t that my little brother? Why is he drooling at the old lady?
Although Yabao used his tactile sense to sense things that took about ten minutes, in reality it only took a few blinks of an eye.
When Yabao opened his eyes, Qiao Sang couldn’t wait to ask, “What did you see?”
“Ya.”
Yabao lay on the ground with his limbs facing up, imitating the posture of the old lady lying on the bed, and then turned his head to repeat what she said.
“Ya, Ya.”
“Ya, Ya, Ya.”
“Ya…”
Qiao Sang listened patiently and found that it was all the words that the old lady had said to her in the room…
Fortunately, the next action that Yabao did was what she did after she came out of the room.
Yabao pulled something on his body without a physical object, which should be a quilt if he guessed correctly.
“Ya, Ya.” Yabao lay on his back and imitated what the old lady said at that time.
Qiao Sang felt like someone hit him on the head with a stick, and his mind was a little confused.
Damn! The old lady could hear it!
Although she guessed that there was something strange about the old lady, she didn’t guess in this direction!
If he could hear it at that distance and at that volume, he must be a superman!
No, calm down! There are no supermen in this world, but there are extraordinary creatures that are more magical than supermen.
A beastmaster who has received the love of his pets may be able to do this, but the old lady is not a high-level beastmaster…
Qiao Sang tried to force himself to calm down and sort out his thoughts. The dying man was fine again, and his senses suddenly became more sensitive than normal people. On the same day, the ghost-absorbing lamp disappeared…
“Ya.”
Yabao continued to imitate.
It stretched out a claw to dig at its ear, and suddenly pulled it back quickly as if it was burned, and then stared at the claw with its eyes in a trance.
Not to mention, if a director saw this series of actions, he would probably prepare to sign a contract directly.
After imitating, Yabao stood up, shook off the dust on his body, and looked at the little treasure-hunting ghost who appeared at some point and looked at it happily. Suddenly, he remembered the scene of it drooling at the old lady.
“Ya, Yaya?”
The little treasure-hunting ghost was stunned for a moment and answered.
“Xun~”
“Xunxun~”
Qiao Sang on the side stopped thinking.
What the hell, spirit and death? !
