=================
"What?" Lian Yun turned around and found that Luoshou's legs were shaking so badly that he was frozen in place and couldn't move an inch, as if he was about to collapse.
"Lanna." Lian Yun said in a deep voice.
The person who was called responded immediately, walked quickly to the camel, and reached out to catch Lina.
Seeing her little master land safely, Kuikui's eyes rolled back and she finally collapsed to the ground.
"It's scared." Lina rushed over and touched its little head lovingly.
"What did you see just now?" Lian Yun squatted down and asked Lina.
While comforting Luo Beast, Lina pointed to the street next to her and said, "A white thing just ran over there. Kuikui saw it, so it got scared."
Lian Yun and Lana looked at each other and read the same meaning in each other's eyes.
“You go find that thing, I’ll take Lina back first.”
Lanna responded and ran in the direction Lina pointed.
Not long after the man left, Kuikui's trembling slowly subsided, and she rubbed her head gently against the palm of her little master's hand.
Lina whispered to comfort it, then looked at Lian Yun, her eyes filled with curiosity: "Sister Lord, do you know what that was just now?"
"The Luo Beast has always been afraid of flying gerbils. Other monsters are not a threat to it." Lina frowned and thought hard: "Although I didn't see its appearance clearly, how could a flying gerbil be white?"
Lian Yun shook her head. She didn't know how this thing could enter the town.
Everything will be clear only when Lana catches that little thing.
"Can it still stand up?" Lian Yun also stroked the camel. Its brown fur was smooth and slippery, and felt very good.
If it could be made into clothes...
Kuikui trembled inexplicably again under her hands, and then struggled desperately to stand up.
His round eyes deliberately turned away from Lian Yun, and he looked up and pulled the reins in Lina's hand a few times, as if silently urging her.
Seeing that it was fine, Lina got on the camel again.
"..." Lian Yun pointed at Kuikui with a speechless look.
"Lina, is there something wrong with your camel's neck?"
Lina looked at Kui Kui who deliberately tilted her neck to the right to avoid Lian Yun's sight: ...
She reluctantly twisted Kuikui's neck back and said, "It's too human. Did the Lord sister think of something dangerous just now?"
Lian Yun was surprised: "Can it hear what I'm thinking?"
"It's like that sometimes. It can hear the thoughts of those around it. But not all the time," Lina said with a hint of pride. "It's been with me since it was little. It's the smartest camel I've ever met."
Kuikui shook his mane, feeling very proud.
Lian Yun caught the message and asked, "Are you saying that other Luo beasts don't have this ability?"
"How is that possible!" Lina shook her head.
"The intelligence of camels is not very high. As earth-attributed monsters, their only special ability is to obtain water from the sand. This is why camels are essential mounts for crossing the desert." Lina explained.
Lian Yun seemed to be thinking about something, and nodded to Lina in appreciation: "You know so much, it's amazing."
Lina's face suddenly turned red, and she shook her head embarrassedly: "No, I have known this since I was a child, as if it were engraved in my mind. Uncle Garin and the others know that I like to study these things, and they would bring me books on these subjects, so I know a little more than others."
The little girl, holding her gray pigtails, looked around, her legs dangling from side to side. Lian Yun liked this little girl more and more. She was cute, kind and modest.
Lian Yun brought Luo Shou and Lina back to the store. The tent was still on the ground in front of the store door.
Lina looked pitiful: "Sister Lord...are you staying here tonight?"
Lian Yun waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Everything will be fine in the future. Don't worry. Lanna and I will clean up a room for you as soon as possible."
"I don't mind!" Lina's fair little face bloomed with a smile like a little sun, making people feel that the freckles on her cheeks were extremely cute.
Lina jumped down by supporting herself on the camel's back. Lian Yun seemed to have thought of something and quickly took out a small medicine bottle and handed it to her.
"Your ankle is still injured, drink this."
Lina took the small medicine bottle with both hands, her eyes flashing with curiosity. After a while, she returned the bottle to Lian Yun: "No need, Lord Sister. My injuries usually heal quickly."
As she spoke, she lifted up her trouser leg, and the injury on her ankle seemed to have really healed a lot in the short journey.
"It's been like this since I was a child." Lina lowered her trouser legs as usual and took a few more steps. It looked no different from usual.
That's probably why Garen and Barry were so angry when they found out her wound hadn't healed yet.
This is truly a talented and resourceful girl, Lian Yun thought to himself.
Lian Yun originally wanted to let Lina go into the store to rest for a while, but seeing that the little girl seemed to be unable to sit still, he had no choice but to let her wander around.
Taking advantage of his free time, Lian Yun opened [Skills] and found that there was still an unactivated “???” behind each skill.
Lian Yun sighed, still having no clue.
The missions have not been updated.
【bite--】
[A resident of unknown race has been detected. Do you want to check? ]
Lian Yun was stunned for a moment, then realized something and ran out of the store, only to find Lina walking on the altar.
Seeing Lian Yun coming out, Lina smiled and waved her hand to greet her.
Lina? Resident intention?
Lian Yun couldn't figure this out again.
Lian Yun hesitated for a long time, but still clicked [View].
[Resident intention from "Lina": This place looks so poor. But the lord's sister is very kind, I want to stay here. Rating: Three stars. (Five stars means applying to become a resident)]
Lianyun: ...looking up at the sky.jpg
He is still a child after all.
But she still wanted to complain, isn't this intention test a bit hasty?
"Huh? Brother Lana is back!" Lina stood tall and was the first to notice Lana turning out from the end of the street.
An expressionless blond man in a black cloak walked towards Lian Yun, holding a pure white sword in one hand and a white furry scruff in the other.
The white ball was brought in front of Lian Yun. Its pink little claws scratched at the air, and its wet round eyes looked a little angry.
"It's you." Lian Yun touched his chin and looked at the little thing, then turned to look at Kuikui, who had already collapsed and pretended to be dead.
…
"You're scared of such a small thing?" Lian Yun sarcastically said, "Don't you have any courage? Can't you run a few steps and struggle?"
The camel beast pretending to be dead moved its hooves, as if it was unwilling to accept the result, but after struggling for a while, it decided to continue lying down.
Lian Yun: ...very determined.
Lina had walked over as fast as she could, and looked around the white ball several times with a look of surprise on her face.
"It... really looks like a flying gerbil!"
Lina raised her hand towards Lanner, motioning him to raise it.
After seeing its short tail, Lina bit her lower lip and thought: "Although its tail is very short, I guess it might have been bitten off by a cub in the same litter when it was young."
Hiss...that sounds painful.
Lian Yun narrowed his eyes. "But it's white. Are there white flying gerbils? And its fur seems to be much longer than that of ordinary flying gerbils."
From a distance, it looks like a round ball. Even when it is picked up, it looks like a deflated ball.
"How magical! It's different from ordinary flying gerbils." Lina exclaimed in awe, "But Lord Sister, you can understand, right? Just like my Kui Kui, even though it's very smart, it's also a camel beast."
A word popped into Lian Yun’s mind - mutation.
Lian Yun silently accepted this fact after pondering for a while, and finally said only one sentence - species diversity is indeed right.
If she had studied genetics well, she might be able to explain this phenomenon now.
Everyone's attention was focused on the little white dumpling again.
White Tuanzi: shivering.jpg
"So, what are you here for?" Lian Yun's expression changed and his eyes became sharp.
It seemed like it was the first time that it was watched like this. All kinds of emotions surged in its heart. It felt aggrieved like a child, and finally it cried out "zhi——".
Lian Yun: ...! You're trying to scam me again!
Lian Yun's eyes were weary, and he waved his hands: "Lanna, throw it out. I'm tired."
Lanna was not vague at all. He turned around and left immediately after receiving the order.
"Wait!" Lina stopped him, her hands on her hips, and shouted, "No matter how smart it is, it can't speak human language!"
Looking at him with the little girl's condemning gaze, Lian Yun seemed to feel a little guilty for bullying the monster.
However, Lanner quickly stepped between the two of them, blocking Lina's sight. His long eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, and the black cloak he wore added a sense of mystery to the man.
His pale lips moved. "It can't speak, that's its problem."
Lina: ...
"Brother Lana, you are so blind." Lina complained with difficulty.
"Thank you, this is what I should do." Lanna said indifferently.
The little white dumpling kicked the silent air at the right moment.
Lian Yun suppressed his laughter and patted Lanna's shoulder: "Stop making trouble, let me ask it."
The white ball was brought in front of him again.
Lian Yun adjusted his tone and spoke more gently: "I know you can understand what we are saying. I asked you a question, and if you answered yes, just let me know."
"squeak!"
"Did your father or mother... survive?"
…
Lian Yun looked at the white ball with drooping ears and sighed inwardly before continuing, "Are you here... to fulfill his last wish?"
"……squeak."
The giant flying gerbil's dying movements indicated that it hoped Lian Yun and Lan Na would take it in. It knew that although the white gerbil was smart, it was not smart enough to survive alone in the harsh desert environment.
Thinking of those identical black eyes and intelligent requests for help, Lian Yun couldn't help but wonder whether all black-eyed flying gerbils had evolved high intelligence.
She also understood why it had been able to enter the town.
——The shield can only resist low-level, threatening monsters.
Lian Yun glanced at Lana, who placed the white ball on the ground.
"Let it stay here." Lian Yun sighed, "It should be safe from the wind and sand, and it won't delay our work."
Since it was Lian Yun who spoke, Lana naturally had no objection.
Lina was also very excited and raised her hands high: “I can help take care of it.”
The white ball sat there blankly, seemingly digesting the reality of what had been accepted. It wasn't until it was caught off guard by Lana's cold gaze while looking around that it silently moved its butt toward Lina.
After resolving the issue of whether Baituanzi should stay or go, several people walked into the store and sat around on the animal skins.
Lina was flipping through the food bags left for them by the caravan with great interest. Lian Yun, who was free, went to the counter to refresh the [Today's Purchase Limit].
【Taming Meat Pack (5 pieces per pack)】
[Price: 10,000 gold coins.]
Finally got something useful!
Looking at this extraordinary price, you can tell that this thing is a rare and unique item even in another world.
Lian Yun bought it without blinking.
Lian Yun opened the backpack and wanted to see the explanation of the items, but in his excitement he accidentally clicked on the "take" button.
The little ball outside the store twitched its nose and suddenly turned into a gust of wind and flew into the house.
[Taming Meat: After eating a monster that surrenders when weak (knocked down) or surrenders voluntarily due to high intelligence, you can form a master-pet contract with the feeder. (Note: Only two pets can be owned by the same owner at the same time.) (Rare) (Irrevocable)]
Lian Yun only had time to glance at the item's description before a message box suddenly flashed across his screen:
[Ding—Feeding successful. Do you want to sign a master-pet contract with the flying gerbil?]
