The male honey badger showed no fear. Even though it was difficult for it to walk, it didn't stop baring its teeth; in fact, it became even more ferocious.
"Hey, you're getting angry now."
Tongtong walked over, covered her mouth, and laughed:
"This little guy is quite interesting, he's rather stubborn. It would be great if we could raise him, what a pity."
Ye Zi knew exactly what Tong Tong regretted: this girl couldn't be kept in confinement and was always thinking about escaping so she could live a free and unrestrained life.
But keeping it doesn't mean you have to keep it locked up.
At this moment, the system also chimed in, saying:
"One hundred points of Qi and Blood can both cure it and establish a connection so that it will follow you."
Anyway, the host has plenty of Qi and blood, but uses it very little, so it doesn't matter.
That's right, this is Yezi's method: establish contact and use Qi and Blood to heal the honey badger. It's just unknown whether it can be brought back to its own grassland.
I just didn't expect the system to take the opportunity to promote its own features.
Now that Tongtong wants to raise a pet, and the system is proactively trying to sell it to her, it would be unreasonable not to establish contact.
"Alright, let's make contact then."
"Okay, host."
Leaf examined the honey badger's injuries, then reached out and covered the wounds, lingering over each one for a short while.
Until the system prompt sounds.
"Contact established."
Ye Zi immediately removed her hand and placed the honey badger on the ground.
The honey badger, placed on the ground, was still somewhat dazed, because when the two-legged creature touched its wounds, it clearly felt itself recovering.
After landing, although my body was still weak, I was perfectly capable of fighting, a far cry from the feeling of struggling to even walk just moments before.
While they were still in a daze, Ye Zi had already led Tong Tong toward the cart. They needed to hurry on their way and earn money; they didn't have time to waste on the honey badger any longer.
When the leaf left, the female honey badger panicked and immediately tried to pull it back.
Unexpectedly, the male honey badger saw his mate running and instinctively followed.
The female honey badger glanced at it in surprise, then continued following the leaf's cart.
Then, this strange team set off.
A few water buffaloes led the way, some pulling carts, while a human couple chatted and laughed in the middle, and two honey badgers brought up the rear.
The drone captured footage of two honey badgers following the cart, filming from various angles.
The viewers' attention in the live stream also shifted. They were originally discussing whether Yezi and Tongtong were a good match and whether there would be a result, but they immediately started discussing whether the honey badger had been tamed by Yezi.
The result is self-evident: with the wild buffalo as a precedent, it's not unacceptable to have a pair of honey badgers as well.
When Yezi stopped to rest at night, the two honey badgers also stopped. Yezi and Yezi started a fire to cook, and the female honey badger actually came over to beg for food.
The remaining raw meat was handed directly to the female honey badger, who then took the meat and began to tear it apart and share it.
After finishing the meat given by the leaves, the male honey badger left immediately. When it returned, it had a spicy snack in its mouth, and the two continued to share it.
"Although this guy has a bad temper, he's very good at making a living."
"He's a responsible and good honey badger," Tongtong praised.
After eating and drinking to our hearts' content, we continued our journey.
Now that food is plentiful and water puddles are everywhere, Dahei doesn't have to worry about water or stamina. It walks anyway, so it doesn't have to run, just like usual.
The four deer, which served as food reserves, were also carried by Big Black's wives. Traveling at night was no problem for the honey badger couple as well.
In the middle of the night, Tongtong yawned, and Yezi immediately stopped the car, untied the oxen, set up the carriage shaft, and then got into the car to rest.
Of course, the drone was thrown out of the car roof by Ye Zi, so unless there is thermal imaging, you can't know how Ye Zi and the other person rested.
Of course, Ye Zi and the other person were just resting and wouldn't do anything out of line.
Couples in the throes of new love are usually like this: kissing, hugging, lifting each other up high, French kissing, and then falling asleep in each other's arms.
Ye Zi and her group had limited resources, and this was all they could do.
Three days later, it was confirmed that the honey badger couple had been domesticated.
In addition to being known as the "King of One-on-One Battles in the Wilderness," Ye Zi has gained another title: "Master of Wilderness Taming."
Lions, wolves, hyenas, leopards, bears—all these animals you can think of have precedents of being domesticated.
The animals that were domesticated by the leaves were all animals with no precedent for domestication, such as wild buffalo and honey badgers.
This is a species that is generally recognized in the animal kingdom as impossible to domesticate. Unexpectedly, now one is pulling a cart with leaves and the other is hunting with leaves.
That's right, the honey badgers hunted for Ye Zi. For three days in a row, Ye Zi and Ye Zi would give the honey badger couple a piece of meat every time they ate.
Just now, during dinner, after finishing the meat Ye Zi gave him, the male honey badger went out. When he came back, he was carrying a rabbit, which he offered to Ye Zi. Then he went out again, and when he came back, he was dragging a spicy snack with him. The couple then shared the snack.
"What does this mean? Are you planning to join us from now on?"
Tongtong turned her head and glanced at the honey badger couple, who were happily sharing spicy snacks, and said:
"I don't know, but it definitely considers us friends because it's exchanging gifts with us."
Ye Zi grinned and said:
"Not bad, the domestication plan has been initially achieved."
"Taming?"
"Yes, didn't you say that once you raise them, they'll be fine? So I've been feeding them every day, and now we're seeing initial results."
"Just for this?"
“Yes, that’s right,” Ye Zi said matter-of-factly.
He couldn't very well tell Tongtong that he used 100 HP to establish a connection with the honey badger, heal its wounds, and incidentally become friends with it.
Then the system and the Qi and Blood value need to be explained in detail.
"There are no examples of honey badgers being domesticated, how did you do that?"
"There are no examples of wild water buffalo being domesticated, so one more honey badger won't make much difference, especially since we have Jin at home."
Not only did that guy refuse to leave the house, but he also brought his wife back with him. What's worse, he even had three cubs at home.
Because of this, I became a good-for-nothing brat.
Tongtong asked in confusion:
What animal is gold?
“A golden eagle was injured in an aerial battle. I rescued it and it has been living in my home ever since.”
"Like a honey badger?"
"Yes, I originally wanted to send the gold to the relevant authorities for treatment, but that guy wouldn't let anyone get close. In the end, the relevant authorities could only give me a certificate to help take care of it."
"It's that simple?"
Ye Zi said shamelessly:
"Yes, maybe I'm just naturally drawn to animals."
Tongtong pointed to Big Black.
Ye Zi chuckled and then said:
"There was nothing I could do about Big Black. It wasn't injured and didn't want to get close to me, so I had to beat it up, which triggered the aura."
As you've seen, that's the result.
"Are you sure Big Black didn't submit to your force?"
"Just tell me if it's obedient or not."
"obedient."
"Was he injured when he was obedient?"
"have."
"That triggers the aura."
Not only was Tongtong speechless, but the viewers in the live stream were also speechless, because what Ye Zi said was true.
Although something felt off, I couldn't find a point to refute him.
