Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 84
Chapter 84 is Release
“I want to ask you to help me steal something.” Ye Jingwen replied.
Oh, it’s not to borrow money, then it’s okay.
But stealing things…
Qiao Sang looked at Ye Jingwen with a strange expression, so you are this kind of person…
Ye Jingwen obviously saw what Qiao Sang wanted to express from her facial expression.
“It’s not what you think, I just want you to help me steal a magnetic rat.” Ye Jingwen hurriedly explained.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, and then asked in surprise: “Stealing pets? Have you found the nest of wild magnetic rats?”
In towns and villages, the control of wild supernatural creatures is not as strict as in the city.
Moreover, Qitang Town is close to mountains and waters, and some wild supernatural creatures often appear.
In the absence of resources and animal masters, these wild supernatural creatures are basically in the primary form and it is difficult to go further.
The government in the town saw that they were not dangerous and did not care much.
If there is a report from the masses, they will be dispatched, but if there is no report, they will not increase their workload and make special inspections.
This led some people to smell business opportunities.
Wild pets are captured in secret realms.
Beastmasters may not necessarily capture wild pets for contracts, but also for trading and profit.
It would be understandable if Ye Jingwen found the lair of the magnetic rats and wanted Qiao Sang to get a few to sell.
Because the alliance stipulates that only beastmasters are allowed to sell wild pets.
Not to mention whether ordinary people can capture wild pets through other methods, even if they are captured, they can easily break free if they are not careful, and there is no guarantee or safety.
However, Qiao Sang still couldn’t figure out some things.
How can finding the nest of wild pets and capturing them be called stealing?
This is understandable why Ye Jingwen didn’t ask Ye Ranran for help, because public officials cannot participate in such pet trading events.
But doesn’t she still have a father who is a beastmaster?
It doesn’t make sense not to think of your father first when it comes to making money.
Before Qiao Sang could figure it out, Ye Jingwen explained: “What are you thinking? I’m not asking you to steal from the lair of the magnetic rat. My friend caught a magnetic rat in the mountain, and I want you to steal it and put it back.”
Qiao Sang: “…”
Ye Jingwen continued: “A few days ago, I went up the mountain to look for Bajiao grass, but I ran into a velvet spider. It was the magnetic rat that came out to save me. If it weren’t for it, I would probably be lying in the hospital now.”
Qiao Sang raised his eyebrows and motioned for her to continue.
“Then I went back and told my friend about this. He said he would buy some food that the magnetic rat likes to eat and go up the mountain to thank him. As a result, on the day he went, the day before yesterday, he actually brought his father.”
At this point, Ye Jingwen was obviously a little angry: “He lied to me! He said he was thanking the magnetic rat, but he was going to catch it.”
This sentence didn’t sound like a complaint to an ordinary friend, but instead there was a feeling of hatred for a scumbag.
Ye Jingwen changed her tone and blamed herself: “If the magnetic rat didn’t recognize me, it would never be so easily tricked out by some food.”
She still remembers the look in the magnetic rat’s eyes at her.
Qiao Sang was silent for a moment and asked: “Isn’t this friend of yours your boyfriend?”
Ye Jingwen: “!!!”
Seeing Ye Jingwen’s shocked expression, Qiao Sang still had something to understand, she said earnestly: “It’s not good to fall in love too early.”
She thought Ye Jingwen was devoted to studying, but she didn’t expect that she could study and fall in love at the same time…
“He is no longer my boyfriend.” Ye Jingwen retorted.
This also indirectly acknowledged the relationship between the two.
The little treasure hunter had been listening to the conversation between the two. Just when Ye Jingwen finished speaking, it took out milk from the ring and handed it over.
“Xun~”
Ye Jingwen was stunned.
She glanced at the words “For Young Pets Only” on the milk bottle and declined, “Thank you, I’m not thirsty.”
After rejecting the little treasure hunter, Ye Jingwen said seriously, “Qiao Sang, can you help me steal the magnetic rat? I can’t think of anyone else except you.”
After that, she silently looked at the little treasure hunter who put the milk back into the ring.
“Ya Ya!”
“Ya!”
The fire-toothed dog held the milk in its left paw and patted its chest with its right paw, looking as if it was wrapped in its body.
Qiao Sang said seriously: “What are you stealing?”
Ye Jingwen was a little disappointed for a moment.
In fact, she hadn’t said something yet.
It would be fine if Zhang Huai could find a beastmaster contract for the magnetic rat through normal channels.
But he told her that his father had found a buyer and was going to sell the magnetic rat to a gourmet. The fate of
the magnetic rat in the hands of a gourmet is self-evident.
This is also what she couldn’t accept. She
was ready to accept her fate, but her cousin returned to her hometown at this time.
If her cousin only had a fire-toothed dog, she wouldn’t mention it, but she didn’t expect that her cousin also contracted a treasure-hunting ghost.
The existence of the treasure-hunting ghost made her think of stealing.
“This is not called stealing, this is called releasing.” Qiao Sang continued.
Ye Jingwen’s eyes lit up, and she became excited instantly. She nodded and agreed: “Yes, it’s not stealing! It’s releasing it!”
Qiao Sang is not a person who loves people too much, but since the incident happened to his family, he must think about the problem from the perspective of his family.
It’s just that it’s easy to say, but it’s not that simple to do it.
First of all, it’s impossible to rely on the fire dog, because it can only fight head-on.
The release can only be done by the little treasure hunter.
And the little treasure hunter is only three days old and has never used any skills. It always feels a little uneasy to let it go away from me and act alone…
…
At 11:20 in the evening.
Qiao Sang and Ye Jingwen rode their bicycles to the downstairs of a community in the center of the town.
The fire dog had already fallen asleep and was taken into the Beast Taming Book by Qiao Sang.
Because the little treasure hunter is a ghost-type pet, it is particularly energetic at night and doesn’t like to sleep.
“Is it here?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Yes.” Ye Jingwen nodded.
“Search~”
The little treasure hunter called out, but its figure could not be seen around.
Only Qiao Sang, who had made a contract with it, nodded accurately in a certain direction.
On the other side.
In the dim room, there were constant gnawing sounds, occasionally mixed with the sizzling sound of thunder and lightning.
The magnetic rat looked at the unchanged cage with despair.
It looked dejectedly at the night outside the window, wondering if its lover would fall in love with someone else after knowing that it was gone…
The fruits on the mountain should be ripe in a few days, and I wonder if I will have the chance to eat them in the future…
Humans, they are all humans!
It didn’t even have time to taste the food that lured it out, what a loss!
The more the magnetic rat thought about it, the hungrier it became. It stood up angrily and bit the iron cage, turning its grief and anger into strength.
Suddenly, a bottle of milk appeared in front of its eyes out of thin air.
The magnetic rat kept gnawing and froze in place for a while.
It suddenly realized something and turned its head abruptly to look at its tail.
I saw that its tail had turned into a lightning shape at some point.
Oh my god!
It’s a ghost creature!
Sorry for being even slower…
