The Creator is fair. Since He has given a monster like the Mosasaurus a long lifespan, He will not allow its strength to be too strong, otherwise wouldn't it be unbalanced?
So why did we say earlier that the Sandshrew has the power to tear through mountains and split rocks? That's a grown Sandshrew. In reality, it's very difficult for a Sandshrew to grow.
Therefore, in order to enjoy a long lifespan while becoming stronger quickly, the mole beasts took a different approach and came up with a way to find a contract with humans.
Although the risk is relatively high, how can you get huge benefits without paying anything?
This seemingly most dangerous form of contract, if it finds the right master, then the benefits obtained by the monster will undoubtedly be the greatest.
Therefore, the mole beasts have known since childhood that they must find a good master and then follow their master to win. After all, it is too difficult for them to cultivate on their own, especially when the spiritual energy in the world is becoming increasingly thin.
This is commonly known as - hugging the thighs.
Xue Huan: “…”
She looked at the young mole in front of her with mixed feelings, "Why did you choose me?"
"The spiritual energy of the master is very rich and pure. If you follow the master, you will have food to eat."
The mole said this in a cute boyish voice that was totally inconsistent with its appearance.
Is it that simple? Is this young molehill naive or foolish?
But it was indeed a blessing that it met her.
——Thinking this way seems a bit narcissistic.
However, what she didn't know was that the mole beast did not choose her casually. If it had been so casual, the mole beast clan might have been wiped out long ago.
This clan has a unique talent in physiognomy, and this talent can be said to be an instinct formed by the ancestors of the mole beasts through the accumulation of tens of millions of years of experience, and then passed on to the descendants through blood.
Just like some people are afraid of the dark, why? Because long ago, when our ancestors lived in the wild, they would be attacked by wild beasts at night. So in people's cognition, darkness represents danger.
After generations of reproduction and evolution, this mentality has been engraved in human genes.
The Sandshrews' ability to judge people was also passed down through generations. This skill had become an instinct, allowing them to roughly determine whether a person was suitable for a contract the moment they laid eyes on him or her.
But if you ask the mole beast to describe it in detail, it cannot explain it clearly.
So it was summarized with one sentence: "Follow the master and you will have food to eat."
Xue Huan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Looking at the mole in front of her, she felt complicated. The moment before, she was still worried that it would eat her, and the next moment, it actually took the initiative to recognize her as its master?
This is going too magical, isn't it?
The mole beast, however, didn't have as many tangled thoughts as her. It was very hungry and just wanted to eat. Naturally, it started to act coquettishly towards Xue Huan, "Master, master, I'm so hungry and want to eat."
"Hanhuan!"
It’s Pei Ji.
After he informed Xue's mother and the others and asked them to leave quickly, he immediately rushed back because he was worried about Xue Huan's safety.
"Don't be afraid, Huanhuan. I won't let this monster hurt you." Pei Ji stood in front of Xue Huan, holding a hatchet in his hand, staring at the monster in front of him vigilantly.
Xue Huan felt warm in her heart and held his hand, "It's okay, it won't hurt us."
As she spoke, she slowly walked towards the mole beast. Pei Ji held her back, "Hanhan——"
Xue Huan gave him a reassuring smile, "It's really okay, look."
She stretched out her hand, and the mole beast offered its head to her hand, docile and well-behaved.
Pei Ji looked at the scene in front of him, shocked and confused.
A drop of spiritual spring water condensed on Xue Huan's finger, and the mole beast couldn't wait to lick it with its tongue.
"Ah, spiritual liquid! It feels so good, master, I want more..." It was like an insatiable child.
"No more, but if you behave yourself, I'll give you one drop every day from now on."
"Really?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you?"
“Master is so kind!”
Seeing Xue Huan interacting with the monster, Pei Ji also felt a little jealous, "Huan Huan, can I touch it?"
"Come." Xue Huan grabbed one of his hands and placed it on the mole beast's head.
"This is my...family," she introduced him to the Sandshrew. "You can't hurt him, understand?"
The mole beast glanced at Pei Ji and said, "Well, Master, don't worry."
"Okay, go back to the lake first. I'll come find you in the evening."
The mole beast looked at her reluctantly and crawled away.
"Huan'er, are you okay? Akang said a monster appeared in the garden. What happened?" As soon as Xue Huan and Pei Ji returned home, Xue's mother asked worriedly.
"Mom, I saw it wrongly. It was a crocodile. I think it crawled out of the lake. I was shocked when I first saw it. Now the crocodile has crawled back into the water."
On the way home, Xue Huan had already discussed with Pei Ji that in order not to cause panic among Xue's mother and the others, they would not tell them about the existence of the mole beast.
Although the earth dragon is also quite scary, it is not as impressive as the unknown monsters.
Xue's mother felt relieved. "I didn't expect there would be a soil dragon in Shangyang Lake. It seems I can't go to the lake easily in the future."
Xue Huan: "This time a dirt dragon came up, who knows what it will be next time. It seems we need to plant thorny vines around the lake as well."
"Thorn vine" is the external name of the vampire vine. After all, the vampire vine sounds a bit creepy.
In the afternoon, Xue Huan and Pei Ji went to the garden to plant thorny vines.
Because there are already thorny vines all around the garden, there is no need to look for more. Just cut some branches from the already grown thorny vines and stick them in the soil.
This thing is easy to grow and has strong vitality.
After planting, Xue Huan watered the plants again with diluted spiritual spring water.
When she came back in the evening, the newly planted thorn vines had grown new branches and leaves, looking full of vitality.
Xue Huan called out in her mind, and the mole beast quickly emerged from the water, shouting joyfully, "Master."
"I'm so hungry..."
Xue Huan raised an eyebrow, "Didn't you hunt in the lake?"
It must not tell her that it had been waiting for her to feed it. If that were the case, how had it grown so big before it recognized her as its master?
"Of course there are. Those fish and shrimps in the lake are no match for me. If they meet me, they will only be eaten. But those fish and shrimps don't have any spiritual energy at all, so they can't even fill their stomachs."
Those fish and shrimp can only fill its stomach but cannot give it a real sense of fullness.
What it likes most is food that contains spiritual energy!
Spiritual energy? Hearing this word from her contracted beast's mouth, Xue Huan felt a little strange. "Could it be that everything you ate before was filled with spiritual energy? Like these?"
She took out a large wooden basin, pointed her finger in the air, and immediately a large basin of fruits and vegetables appeared in the basin, all grown in the space.
