"Ah?" Li Gan stared at Qiao Bai in a daze.
Qiao Bai closed his eyes, not knowing how to tell Li Gan - this dragon lizard not only had no problems at all, but also seemed to be in love at the moment.
Just now I thought this thick and long line looked like a mythical dragon.
Once the voice of my imagination is added in.
Oh no.
The filter instantly shattered into pieces.
Qiao Bai bent down, and while Li Gan and the dragon lizard were still not able to react, he suddenly reached out and touched the dragon lizard's belly.
Dragon Lizard: “?”
Li Gan: “?”
What happened? Something appeared with a whoosh and then shrank back with a whoosh? "The stomach is bulging. It's not just that it's full, it's a little bloated." As soon as Qiao Bai touched it, the dragon lizard twisted its body subconsciously.
Qiao Bai was very familiar with that posture. Every time Xiao Wu was full, he would ask him to rub his belly like that.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Li Gan's eyes were as big as copper bells, almost shining: "I fed Xiao Qi food before I left, but Xiao Qi didn't eat a single bite!"
Qiao Bai had a blank expression on his face: "Obviously, it ate it secretly when you didn't know."
A skeptical expression appeared on Li Gan's face, and he looked hesitantly at the dragon lizard on the ground.
There was no need for Qiao Bai to deceive him.
So... the problem can only be with this one of ours.
Li Gan's eyes became sharp.
The dragon lizard's soft body, crawling on the ground, became stiff little by little.
But it still held on, with a "groaning" and "I'm weak" look.
This made Li Gan's eyes less determined.
"But...if it's like what you said, why did Xiaoqi lie to me?" Li Gan withdrew his gaze from the dragon lizard and looked at Qiao Bai in confusion.
If he really wasn't feeling unwell and was just pretending to go on a hunger strike, he must have some purpose, right? Dragon Lizard didn't.
It had been whining, listless and without energy for more than a month, and Li Gan really couldn't think of any reason why the dragon lizard would lie to him.
After struggling for a long time, he looked to Qiao Bai for help: "Qiao, what's going on?"
Li Gan’s brain is almost shutting down.
Qiao Bai stared at the dragon lizard without saying a word, tapping the table with his fingers from time to time.
kindness……
Qiao Bai's innate skill [Eye of Insight] can indeed see what the pet wants to say, but before the dragon lizard, Qiao Bai had never used his innate skill to communicate with his pet.
It’s not that Qiao Bai doesn’t want to.
Qiao Bai has tried it before, and the innate skills show the pet's thoughts, instead of changing in time with the pet's thoughts.
Instead, it will present the strongest thought in the pet's mind for a short period of time, within three to five minutes.
For example.
After Qiao Bai revealed that the dragon lizard had not actually been hungry, and after Li Gan stared at it with an oppressive gaze for a long time, the idea that he had seen through his innate skills changed.
[Lie...? But Xiao Meilong said... Hiccup - hiccup! ]
The dragon lizard seemed a little frightened.
Qiao Bai was also helpless.
He doesn't seem like a bad guy, does he?
But Qiao Bai was also somewhat relieved.
Although he still hadn't fully understood what was going on, Li Gan's dragon lizard was definitely not sick.
At most... there are some psychological problems? After thinking for a while, Qiao Bai picked up Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu tilted his head and looked at Qiao Bai in confusion, as if asking what Qiao Bai was going to do by picking it up at this time.
Li Gan's eyes also fell on Xiao Wu.
Li Gan: "Why? Are you asking your daughter to influence my son?"
Qiao Bai rolled his eyes at him: "That's wishful thinking."
Then Qiao Bai said, "What I mean is, let Xiao Wu fight against your dragon lizard and see what happens."
Battle.
When he heard these two words, his little black eyes lit up instantly.
Good battle!
Good fight! Since the last fight with the fox, Xiaowu has not met a suitable opponent.
None of the bird-like supernatural creatures in Yanglin Village can fight!
All ran cleanly!
This made Xiao Wu very dissatisfied.
Why is it so difficult to find a suitable opponent? Xiao Wu sighed.jpg When he heard that he could fight this big guy in front of him, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up as brightly as ever!
Okay, okay, it can fly up now and beat this big bug!
"Ah?!" Li Gan showed a look of shock again.
He looked at the dragon lizard Xiaoqi, who was nearly one meter long and as thick as his thigh, even though he was lying on the ground listlessly. His body was covered with layers of blue and green scales.
He turned his head and looked at the little bird jumping around in Qiao Bai's palm. It was round and black and could be easily wrapped up by Qiao Bai with both hands. It looked like a small sesame-skin dumpling.
His mouth opened slightly, and his gaze shifted little by little to Qiao Bai.
It was full of condemnation of Qiao Bai.
"I didn't expect you to be taking the ghost father route?"
Without waiting for Qiao Bai to show a "what nonsense are you talking about" expression, Li Gan pointed at the dragon lizard and then at the little bird: "Look at the size comparison, I'm not kidding, my little Qi can eat ten of these little birds in one bite!"
The dragon lizard on the ground trembled when it heard this.
Eh... I suddenly feel so cold! The long dragon lizard coiled up, trying to curl itself into a ball, its big eyes darting around vividly.
Could it be that it felt wrong?
Unlike the dragon lizard that was trying to find the source of the cold, the little crow that understood what Li Gan was saying was extremely angry.
Xiaowu: (へ╬)!!!
No one! No one has ever dared to look down on it! Today, this guy must be taught a lesson, otherwise he won’t know why the flower is so red!
If Qiao Bai hadn't stopped Xiao Wu in time, Xiao Wu would have rushed up to attack Li Gan at any time, and blood would have splattered every three steps.
"Don't get angry or bear grudges when others look down on you. After all, people are biased." Qiao Bai gently smoothed the hair on Xiao Wu's head and said in a gentle tone, "Just like he thinks his Xiao Qi is the strongest, I also think Xiao Wu is stronger."
Li Gan was startled the moment the little bird fluttered up.
Fortunately, Qiao Bai stepped in the next second and persuaded Xiao Wu. Li Gan was so moved that he burst into tears. He opened his mouth to apologize when he heard Qiao Bai continue.
"We can retaliate right away. Hitting a beastmaster is rude and may be against the law, but we can just hit the pet back. There's no problem at all."
Xiao Wu's little head nodded frantically.
Xiao Wu: OVO listens to the beastmaster! That's right!
There's no point in hitting that guy who looks weak at first glance, so just hit the big guy lying on the ground!
Dragon Lizard·Big Guy·Xiao Qi: “?”
Xiao Qi was shocked.
What happened? Since it appeared here, it has never opened its mouth, and it has never taken the initiative to provoke.
Why was it suddenly targeted? [Qizi didn't understand, Qizi was shocked, but Qizi was a good and obedient Qizi! Qizi promised Xiao Meilong! I won't fight - this bird can't beat me anyway! ]
Qiao Bai raised his eyebrows.
Hmm? Something.
Qiao Bai took the initiative to suggest that Xiao Wu and the dragon lizard fight each other. In fact, he wanted to delay some time to see if he could see something from the changes in the dragon lizard's heart.
I didn’t expect… I’ve already seen something interesting before the fight even started.
I have seen the name "Little Meilong" before.
Qiao Bai didn't think much about it and simply thought that the dragon lizard was in love.
Although logically speaking, a dragon lizard that is less than a year old should still be a cub, the dragon lizard is more or less related to the legendary creature "dragon".
Dragon nature... ahem! It's not impossible for the dragon lizard to really be thinking about love, right?
It wasn't until the dragon lizard mentioned Xiao Meilong again that Qiao Bai finally realized something was wrong.
Xiao Qi’s change…could it be because of this little Meilong?
What's more.
The one who can make the dragon lizard feel amorous and call it "little beautiful dragon" means that even if the other party is not a dragon lizard, it must at least be an extraordinary creature related to "dragon".
Here comes the problem.
A dragon lizard that is not a true dragon is worth tens of millions.
Ordinary people simply cannot afford to contract such an expensive pet.
The probability of encountering a dragon-type supernatural creature in a forbidden place is also pitifully small.
It really happened.
Forbidden land, wilderness, wild dragons.
What would a normal person think of when these words are combined? Extremely dangerous!
If you get hit, you can’t say whether you can come back alive!
So where and how did Xiao Qi meet this little beautiful dragon?
"Did you encounter any danger when you took Xiaoqi to the forbidden land?" Qiao Bai asked.
Li Gan was stunned for a moment: "Danger? What kind of danger could it be? I just walked around the periphery and didn't go deep."
"But it's quite big. It took me a day and a night to get back from the city gate."
"Fortunately, I hired an expedition team before I set out, otherwise I wouldn't dare take Xiao Qi to spend the night in the forbidden land."
Qiao Bai frowned: "Aren't you going to the forbidden place in our city?"
Qiao Bai remembered what was correct.
From June to October, no overnight stays are allowed in the forbidden areas of NY City.
Otherwise, Qi Yue wouldn't have to spend time traveling back and forth to the mine every day.
"It is a forbidden place in the neighboring Dongzhou. Their forbidden time is different from ours. It is from November to May every year."
Qiao Bai nodded.
It seems like there is some idea, but it is missing key information.
"Okay." Qiao Bai touched Xiao Wu and said, "Then let's prepare for the battle."
Li Gan: "No? Qiao Bai, are you serious?"
"Otherwise, you don't think I'm joking with you, it's not funny at all." Qiao Bai gave him a puzzled look.
Li Gan: “…”
Li Gan wiped his face.
"If you really want Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi to fight, I have no objection."
Respect others.
Understand others.
Li Gan had no control over Qiao Bai's method of training his pet.
"But Xiaoqi may not agree." Li Gan put on a mask of pain.
This was the second source of his troubles.
One is that Xiaoqi is on a hunger strike. Now it has been confirmed that Xiaoqi seemed to have secretly eaten when he was not paying attention.
Li Gan was angry but at the same time he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
At least Xiaoqi won't starve to death in the end, so Li Gan didn't say anything for the time being.
Another trouble is that Xiaoqi refuses to fight.
"I'm indeed not a fighting maniac, but Xiaoqi's refusal to fight is a big trouble for me!" Li Gan sighed and looked down at Xiaoqi who was lying on the ground.
Xiao Qi turned around stiffly and pointed the tip of his smooth tail at Li Gan, but he didn't look into Li Gan's eyes.
Li Gan sighed again.
This scene was all seen by Qiao Bai.
He nodded.
kindness.
good.
The dragon lizard looked somewhat guilty.
Feeling guilty gives you a chance to untie the knot in your heart.
If Qiao Bai wanted the dragon lizard to look righteous, then there was really nothing he could do.
A person who is determined to pretend to be asleep will never be awakened by external factors.
The dragon lizard is now in a state of Schrödinger's pretending to sleep.
On one side is "Xiao Meilong" who has no idea what he said to Xiao Qi, and on the other side is Li Gan, the old father who takes care of Xiao Qi diligently.
What Qiao Bai wants to do is to make Xiaoqi open his eyes and take a good look at his old father. Because of him, Li Gan's hair loss rate has increased!
Baldness is inevitable sooner or later.
Qiao Bai said with a confident expression: "As long as you don't mind Xiao Wu unilaterally attacking Xiao Qi."
Li Gan understood.
If Xiao Qi doesn't fight, just let him stand there, right? Li Gan was a little confused. Is this not a good idea? But he took another look at Xiao Wu's petite body.
All thoughts vanished in an instant.
"No problem." Li Gan waved his hand: "Even if Xiao Qi doesn't fight back, his defense is pretty good and won't be easily broken."
As he said that, Li Gan looked at Xiao Wu again.
What he didn't say was -
In Li Gan's opinion, the natural differences brought about by the species and grades of the little black lizard and the dragon lizard cannot be easily overcome.
Moreover, I seemed to have heard Qiao Bai say that Xiaowu was a Chinese bird that mutated in a bad direction.
Li Gan was still a little worried. Even if he let the dragon lizard stand still and let Xiao Wu hit him, would Xiao Wu not be able to leave any mark on the dragon lizard in the end?
The more Li Gan thought about it, the more possible it seemed.
There was a hint of kindness in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Wu.
"Fight, fight, fight as much as you want. It's best if you can break the defense." Li Gan said to Xiao Wu with a kind smile.
Qiao Bai shuddered.
The little crow flying in the air also trembled.
"Take your eyes away, or I'll let Xiao Wu beat you up too." Qiao Bai looked disgusted.
Li Gan chuckled: "Your daughter is my granddaughter. I think my own granddaughter is not good enough?"
Then he said to Xiao Wu: "Come on, Xiao Wu~"
The little crow flapped its wings in mid-air, held its head high and chest puffed out, looking heroic and full of vigor and momentum.
"Xiao Wu, the aura of the king."
Qiao Bai’s words had just fallen.
A powerful momentum suddenly exploded in all directions with Xiaowu as the center! Even though humans are not easily affected by the aura of extraordinary creatures.
Qiao Bai and Li Gan felt the strong airflow coming at them! Their brains were filled with shock! Qiao Bai, who had already experienced Xiao Wu's skills, was fine, but Li Gan's eyes were blank, as if he hadn't reacted to what was happening.
What surprised Li Gan even more was.
A moist scent filled the air, and wisps of white, smoky mist were gathering around the dragon lizard.
Li Gan, whose brain went blank due to Xiao Wu's stunning skills, started to work slowly after feeling the water vapor and seeing the smoke.
Is this... Xiao Qi's skill [Smoke and Clouds]? Didn't Xiao Qi refuse to fight? When did he use the skill?
Li Gan felt like his brain wasn't enough.
"Son, lend me your brain..." He slowly turned his head and looked at Qiao Bai.
As soon as Qiao Bai came up, he hit him on the forehead, and Li Gan's confused eyes instantly became clear.
Li Gan, who had regained consciousness, immediately recalled what Qiao Bai had just said: "King's aura? This is not right. Can Xiao Wu learn this skill?"
He looked at Xiao Wu from top to bottom, left to right, but could not find any signs of king attributes in Xiao Wu.
Extraordinary creatures with king attributes naturally have a different aura.
It was the kind of thing that you could tell at a glance that this extraordinary creature must be the "king"! Xiao Wu didn't have that kind of temperament.
When the little bird nestled beside Qiao Bai, it was small and cute, and didn’t make people feel scared at all.
Li Gan wanted to ask a few more questions.
He saw that the clouds, rain and fog on the field were increasing more and more... He should have been happy that the dragon lizard had regained its fighting power, but he discovered the problem at a glance.
"This is not right! Why is Xiaoqi attacking himself?" Li Gan slapped his thigh and looked at his pet with shocked eyes.
no?
Xiaoqi, you are confused!
Even if you want to refute Qiao Bai's words, even if you don't want to fight, even if you want to make the bird happy, you shouldn't use such a method that is obviously a let-down! Who would let their pet attack itself?
"How do you know that Xiaoqi wanted to do this?" Qiao Bai gave Li Gan a look.
He didn't understand what was going on in Li Gan's mind.
Why do people still firmly believe that the dragon lizard is letting the little crow go until now?
Xiao Wu has used [Aura of the King]. Doesn’t Li Gan realize that Xiao Wu’s strength is not as weak as he imagined?
Li Gan didn't understand: "It can't be that Xiao Wu also used this skill? Xiao Wu can't have this skill!"
Qiao Bai shook his head.
This doesn't make sense, so let Li Gan see it with his own eyes.
More and more clouds and water vapor were entwined around the thick and long body of the dragon lizard. The water flow formed by the condensed water vapor penetrated into the fine scales of the dragon lizard little by little, and the clouds also penetrated into the body of the dragon lizard from the inside out little by little.
The dragon lizard's expression gradually became hideous and painful, with a hint of shock and emptiness in its eyes.
What happened? The dragon lizard's brain was a bunch of garbled text.
Then...
[Ouch... It hurts, it's so scary... Qizi wants to cry...! Xiaomeilong said no... The beastmaster will... can't help it! The dragon wants to hit the bird! The bad bird! Qizi is good! The bird is bad! ]
"roar--!"
With the words "I can't stand it" and "This bird is bad" in the dragon lizard's heart, the dragon lizard let out a clear roar! The body and claws wanted to exert force, but they were limp and had no strength at all.
This is the deterrent power that the aura of the Little Black King brings to the dragon lizard!
Even though the natural bonus of its bloodline meant that the dragon lizard was not as afraid of Xiaowu from the inside out as those bird-like supernatural creatures that had escaped from Yanglin Village before, the dragon lizard was not a dragon, let alone a king.
The powerful shock brought by the king's aura caused the dragon lizard's body to become stiff for a short period of time, and its body and brain were completely separated.
The dragon lizard's brain: I can do it! I'm going to kill the bird now!
The dragon lizard's body: threatened by a powerful existence, physiological reactions take over, it shuts down, freezes, and becomes temporarily unable to move.
So the dragon lizard could only let out pitiful and helpless roars.
Mental activities also become rapid.
[Hit the bird, bad bird, hit the bird, bad bird——Seventh cub is good, the beastmaster will not dislike Seventh cub——! 】
Qiao Bai frowned.
Wait... this psychological activity...
Could it be that the dragon lizard thinks that if it fights, Li Gan will dislike it?
Was there something wrong with Long Xi's logic, or did he misunderstand? "Have you ever said anything you shouldn't have to Xiao Qi, like throwing you away or not liking you?" Qiao Bai lowered his voice and asked in a voice that only Li Gan, who was standing next to him, could hear.
Li Gan almost jumped up on the spot.
He glared at Qiao Bai angrily, then realized that his good brother was helping him solve his problem. He suppressed his anger and responded in a low voice with gritted teeth.
"Don't you really trust my character? How could I possibly say something like that to Xiao Qi!"
Suppressing his anger, Li Gan glanced at the dragon lizard struggling in pain, and the little crow that had not continued its attack without Qiao Bai's command.
He then continued, "Xiao Qi is still a cub, which means he is still an infant if converted into a human being. He will not have the same IQ and comprehension ability as a teenager until he is at least two and a half years old. How could I possibly say such things to an infant?"
"Xiao Qi will take it seriously if he hears it!"
"Then are you sure that no one else said something similar to Xiao Qi?" Qiao Bai did not mean to question Li Gan's character.
But Qiao Bai felt that this was where the problem lay.
The dragon lizard seems to have really realized this.
Fighting and eating will make the Beastmaster unhappy and dislike it.
If it wasn't Li Gan who said it to Long Xi, who else could it be?
Li Gan: "Since the contract with Xiao Qi was signed, I have taken care of Xiao Qi single-handedly. No matter where we go or who we meet, I am always there with us. I can be sure that I have never let Xiao Qi hear such words."
Li Gan, who had been slow all along, seemed to realize the problem after Qiao Bai's repeated questioning.
He looked serious and solemn.
I carefully recalled the people who had contact and conversations with the dragon lizard and confirmed it again.
no problem.
"I can guarantee that there is absolutely no such thing."
Qiao Bai stopped asking questions.
Li Gan has said so, and he will not joke about Xiao Qi's issue, which means there is really no problem.
And Qiao Bai also thought of the last suspect——
The dragon lizard kept repeating "little beautiful dragon".
It was the little beautiful dragon that conveyed some ideas to the dragon lizard, which caused the dragon lizard to behave abnormally from its usual behavior.
Although I don’t know what this little beautiful dragon is all about.
Fortunately, the key to Xiaoqi's problem has been found.
It's easy to solve.
"Okay, I got it. Let Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi finish the fight first." Qiao Bai said with a relaxed expression and a smile in his tone.
"Xiao Qi also looks like he wants to fight back."
He definitely didn't want to get back at Li Gan for belittling Xiao Wu's abilities.
