"Ye Wuyan" Encyclopedia——
At the age of 10, Professor Ye Hui of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, who is engaged in the field of research on the habits of wild beasts, accidentally discovered that Ye Wuyan, who had been abandoned in the wild and had lived with the same beast group for ten years, after negotiating with the beast group, Ye Wuyan was brought back to human society by Professor Ye Hui, and was subsequently adopted by Professor Ye Hui.
At the age of 15, he passed the assessment of the Pet Beast Alliance, became a gold medal professional beast master, and was admitted to Shanghai University with special exceptions.
At the age of 16, he went alone to many prestigious universities in the country to compete and communicate with talented beast masters from all over the world. He fought against beast masters at the same level and won every battle.
At the age of 17, he represented Modu University in the Longxuanguo National College Beast Taming Competition. He led the team to win first place in the group stage, and he won first place in the individual competition.
At the age of 18, he was specially approved to graduate early by Modu University. In the same year, he was selected as the "Outstanding Graduate" of Modu University.
At the age of 20, together with two other outstanding graduates of Shanghai University of Magic, he represented Long Xuanguo in the 110th International Youth Beast Taming Championship. He led the team to win the first place in the group stage. He won the first place in the individual competition and was selected by the International Beast Taming Competition. The alliance rated him as "the most promising young genius beast master in a century."
At the age of 21, he passed the assessment of the Pet Beast Alliance and became a master beast master.
22 years old... Suspected to have been ambushed by a terrorist organization, and his whereabouts are unknown.
23 years old...suspected death.
24 years old... Suspected to be haunting the plateau area of Xuezang Province in Longxuan Kingdom.
'...'
Gu Ling read Ye Wuyan's life trajectory up to now on the encyclopedia in one breath, feeling uneasy for a long time.
"Senior Ye's origin is that he was an abandoned baby who was abandoned in the wild and lived with a group of pet beasts for ten years..."
Abandoning babies is a common phenomenon in any era.
And Ye Wuyan was abandoned in the wild since he was a child. He was not bitten to death or eaten by the ferocious beasts in the wild. He was lucky enough to be accepted by a kind-hearted beast group and raised him carefully for ten years... This kind of luck is also true. Absolutely.
"However, what happened to Senior Ye who became a master beast master at the age of 21? He almost disappeared..."
"22 years old, suspected of being ambushed by a terrorist organization, whereabouts unknown..." Gu Ling flipped back to record Ye Wuyan's deeds when he was 22 years old.
It was also in this year that Ye Wuyan, who had always been shining brightly, was like a shooting star in the night sky, quietly 'falling' at an extremely fast speed. The subsequent online information about Ye Wuyan was basically based on speculation and there was not much authenticity. .
During the six years when Ye Wuyan almost disappeared, hundreds of ways of Ye Wuyan's death were reported on the Internet every year.
A talent that is too sharp and sharp will be destroyed by the wind if it is not as good as the trees in the forest.
"Teacher Zhou deliberately concealed Senior Ye's identity before, why did he suddenly tell me now? Is it just because I was curious before? Or is Teacher Zhou trying to hint at something..."
Gu Ling's mood was a little complicated.
"...Ling Ling, it's time to sleep."
At this time, Gu Ya's voice sounded outside the door.
Gu Ling came to his senses and responded: "Okay, I'll turn off the light and go to bed after blowing my hair."
"Well, good night..." The footsteps outside the door gradually faded away, and it was Gu Ya who left.
Gu Ling spent twenty minutes drying her hair thoroughly, then turned off the light and went to bed.
"Miwu~"
In the darkness, Xianjiu skillfully got into the bed and lay down next to Gu Ling's neck.
Gu Ling touched Xianjiu's head and then closed his eyes.
"..."
After an unknown amount of time, Gu Ling turned over and opened his eyes. The room was dark.
Relying on his memory, Gu Ling reached out to find the mobile phone on the bedside table, and then pressed the power button.
The phone screen lights up and the time displayed is——
1:35 minutes
Gu Ling half leaned against the bed, feeling a little depressed: "I can't sleep..."
After watching short videos for a while, Gu Ling put his phone back and lay down again, but he was still tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep.
Gu Ling opened his eyes again, and this time he checked the time on his phone again——
2:20 minutes
"...Still can't sleep!" Gu Ling scratched his hair in annoyance, turned over and sat up.
"Miwu~" On the bed, Xianjiu opened his cat pupils in a daze, subconsciously raised his little paws and rubbed the sleepy cat pupils.
Seeing that he accidentally woken up Xianjiu, Gu Ling turned around and reached out to gently stroke Xianjiu's head: "Xianjiu, if you are sleepy, just go back to sleep. I'll go for a walk."
Hearing this, Xianjiu immediately shook his head and cheered up: "Miwu~" I want to go too.
"Okay, but we have to go down quietly and not disturb the second aunt..." Gu Ling scratched Xianjiu's chin twice more, then casually put on a coat, put the keys and mobile phone in his pocket, and hugged Xianjiu Nine left the room.
Gu Ling walked down the stairs quietly, then opened the door and walked out.
"Miwu~" Xianjiu huddled next to Gu Ling's neck, and pulled the hood of his coat with his little paws to cover his body to block the wind.
It's past two o'clock in the middle of the night in Ping'an Town. It's not as brightly lit as in the big cities. Instead, the surroundings are quiet, blending in with the night.
Gu Ling turned on the flashlight on his phone and walked out along the road.
Because Ping'an Town is close to the sea, the night wind blowing from the sea still contains a trace of the smell of the sea.
The only place in Ping'an Town that was still lit was a small lighthouse standing on the seaside.
The light of the lighthouse is not very bright, but it is always there.
Unknowingly, Gu Ling walked to the beach.
The wind at the beach was getting stronger and the temperature was cooling down at night. Gu Ling zipped up his coat and continued walking towards the beach.
"call……"
Gu Ling took a deep breath, and his complicated thoughts were put into the silent environment around him, as if a drop of ink dropped into a clean lake.
It seemed unworthy of mention, and the traces were slowly erased.
"Miwu~" At this time, Xianjiu poked Gu Ling's face and pointed his other paw in a direction.
Gu Ling turned around and took a closer look: "There... seems to be a person?"
"Miwu~" Xianjiu poked his head and looked in that direction, pulling Gu Ling tightly with his little paws.
Gu Ling swallowed his saliva and walked over with Xianjiu in his arms.
Gradually, Gu Ling saw clearly that he was an old man.
"Grandpa Nian?"
Gu Ling was somewhat impressed by the old man in front of him.
In memory, it seems that Grandpa Nian had an accident decades ago. After being rescued, he had been in a vegetative state for more than ten years. When everyone in his family thought he would be like this for the rest of his life, he suddenly became able to move and speak.
But before Nian's family could be happy for long, the doctor diagnosed that Grandpa Nian seemed to have a mental problem. He could not remember many things or recognize people, but he kept mumbling the word "go back".
The family thought for a long time and felt that Grandpa Nian missed his hometown, so they took him back here.
After returning to his hometown, Grandpa Nian was still confused and could not remember people and things, but he could also start to eat and dress by himself.
When Gu Ling often returned to his hometown when he was a child, whenever he passed by this place, he would always see Grandpa Nian sitting by the threshold, staring blankly at the sky, sitting there for a whole day.
When it's almost dusk, Grandpa Nian will go for a walk, and he likes to go for a walk on the beach the most.
At first, Grandpa Nian’s family was worried that something might happen, so they asked people to follow him there every day.
Later, I found out that Grandpa Nian only stood on the beach and looked at the sea when he went to the beach, and did not do anything else, so he gradually felt relieved.
Gu Ling turned around and looked around, but saw no one else, so he said to the old man again: "Why did you come out in the middle of the night? Do you want me to take you back?"
The old man didn't respond and still looked at the sea blankly.
"……dad."
Just when Gu Ling was thinking about finding someone from last year's family, a middle-aged man's voice came from behind him.
A flashlight shone on Gu Ling and the old man.
Gu Ling turned to look at the person coming and recalled it in his mind.
...It seems that this is Grandpa Nian's eldest son Nian Huailin.
Gu Ling called out: "Uncle Nian."
According to his seniority, Gu Ling should indeed be called uncle.
When Nian Huailin saw Gu Ling, he thought for a moment and remembered the person: "It turns out to be Xiao Ling. Are you back from vacation?"
"Yes." Gu Ling nodded and glanced at Grandpa Nian again: "Why did Grandpa Nian come out in the middle of the night..."
"Hey..." Nian Huailin sighed: "The old man was fine when he had dinner. He went back to his room after eating. Not long after I woke up, I went to take a look in the old man's room, but he disappeared. Unexpectedly, He secretly came to the beach again."
"Again?" Gu Ling looked startled: "Grandpa Nian, does he often come to the beach at night?"
"It's just in the last half month, it hasn't happened before."
Nian Huailin walked over and helped the old man: "No more, I will take the old man back first. Xiao Ling, you should go back to sleep quickly."
"Okay, Uncle Nian."
Gu Ling glanced at the place where Grandpa Nian was standing before, and on a sudden thought, he also walked over, and then faced the direction of the sea.
"Is there anything good to see here...huh? Why is there a dark patch over there...is it an illusion?"
Gu Ling narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the 'black shadow' on the other side of the sea, like a giant beast lying there quietly.
The topographic map near Ping'an Town... There seems to be an island over there?
"..."
After enjoying the sea breeze at the beach for a while, Gu Ling returned home holding the already sleepy Xianjiu.
As soon as Gu Ling lay down, his chaotic mind suddenly became much calmer, and he quickly fell asleep.
…
The next day, morning.
After being awakened by the alarm clock, Gu Ling got up, brushed his teeth and washed his face, while looking at the deposits in his bank card with his mobile phone.
A good day starts with settling accounts in the small treasury.
The original deposit was 280,000, plus the 700,000 bounty from the protected area this time, for a total of 980,000 Dragon Xuan coins.
Rounding it all off, she is a millionaire!
Looking at the string of numbers in his bank card, Gu Ling couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder the profession of beast master is so popular. I can easily earn hundreds of thousands... It's so cool!"
If you have money, you must use it wisely.
Gu Ling began to think in his mind: "I haven't decided which attribute to choose for the second pet beast, and the level of the pet space has not been improved yet... Let's put aside the contract with the second pet beast for now."
First, improve the strength of Xianjiu to prepare for the friendly match in two months.
Gu Ling has not forgotten that the prize money for the winner of the friendly competition is at least several hundred thousand!
"The resources for the pet beasts I bought during the summer vacation have been used up, and it's time to buy a new one."
The saucy operations in the Ancient Beast Control Book are one after another.
Gu Ling couldn't grasp it.
We can't all rely on the unstable little chick, the Ancient Beast Control Book.
Thinking of this, Gu Ling immediately opened the shopping app on his phone.
"I've finished eating the canned Xiangbobo. I can buy another one for Xianjiu."
Xianjiu was also very helpful when he took back the dragon pet egg, so a little reward wouldn't be too much.
"I bought three boxes of electromagnetic fruits this time..."
"Xianjiu's training direction is still focused on speed. It would be great if there were portable training equipment for speed training that could be done anytime, anywhere, even while walking."
Gu Ling's fingertips kept swiping across the interface. After comparing several brands of training equipment, he finally selected a customizable weight training belt priced at 100,000 yuan.
It's a bit expensive, but this weight-bearing training belt can also have some training effects on warrior-level pets.
Even if Xianjiu is promoted to a warrior-level pet in the future, it can still be used for a period of time.
"Strange super stone..."
Gu Ling opened the collection interface and saw the strange super stone that he was reluctant to buy for Xianjiu last time.
And this time...
Gu Ling clicked in without hesitation, and then without looking, he very generously chose... the lowest quality strange super stone worth 200,000 yuan.
Payment! Place an order!
...ahem.
It wasn't that Gu Ling didn't want to buy a higher-quality exotic super stone for Xianjiu, it was mainly because his financial conditions didn't allow it.
The next price range of the strange super stone is 500,000 Dragon Mysterious Coins.
Gu Ling was also thinking about buying other things. If he bought 500,000 yuan of strange super stones, he probably wouldn't have enough money to buy them.
After washing up, Gu Ling returned to the room and saw that Xianjiu had gotten up and was about to turn on his tablet to play games, so he walked over in a few steps and hugged Xianjiu over.
"Xianjiu..."
Xianjiu had a blank look on his face, watching his beast master hesitate to speak and try to hold back, and finally sighed softly: "I believe you!"
Xianjiu: (_) Miwu?
"You go ahead and play."
Gu Ling lowered his head, sucked the cat hard, then rubbed the soft head of the cat before letting go of Xianjiu.
After being severely ravaged, the hair on Xianjiu's body was all messy. He was not beautiful at all, but more like a stray cat raised by a little beggar.
"Meow!" Xianjiu only glanced at his hair, and immediately became unhappy, and his little face became angry.
This cat just got up and combed her fur! ! !
Gu Ling lowered his head and continued to browse the shopping software on his mobile phone: "By the way, I just placed an order for the canned Xiangbobo for you. It should be available the day after tomorrow..."
Hearing this, Xianjiu, who was just about to use Hungry Wolf to pounce on food at Gu Ling, made a move when the cat's pupils suddenly lit up: "Miwu~"
This cat is generous~
Since the beast master bought this cat another can of Xiangbobo, I will reluctantly forgive the beast master!
Xianjiu went back to playing games.
On the other side, after the cold feeling on his back disappeared, Gu Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
Stingy cat~
Isn’t it just to masturbate~
Fortunately, she reacted in time and saved her long and silky hair.
"……found it!"
[Strange Spiritual Fruit: After being taken by humans or pet animals, it helps to quickly enhance spiritual power]
Gu Ling glanced at the price and took a breath.
A box of 5 fruits costs 150,000 yuan, which is equivalent to 30,000 yuan for a strange spiritual fruit.
"Where's the robbery?!"
Gu Ling's body ached, but he had to grit his teeth and place an order to pay for two boxes of strange spiritual fruits, a total of 300,000 yuan.
Generally speaking, it would take two or three years for a beast master's pet beast space level to break through from one star to two stars at an ordinary level without any external force.
But two or three years was too long for Gu Ling.
The goal Gu Ling set for himself was to raise the pet space level to two stars within half a year.
In addition to daily meditation practice, you need the help of external forces like strange spiritual fruits.
Gu Ling calculated the cost of this shopping——
Xiangbobo can: 60,000 yuan
Leiyinmao customized weight training belt: 100,000 yuan
Three boxes of electromagnetic fruit: 90,000 yuan
Strange super stone: 200,000 pieces
Two boxes of strange spiritual fruits: 300,000 yuan
...A total of 750,000 Dragon Mysterious Coins.
"There are only 230,000 left..." Gu Ling was a little hesitant to buy more resources. After thinking about it for a while, he gave up and continued buying resources:
"Forget it, I'll keep around 200,000 yuan. If Xianjiu destroys something again, I'll still have money to compensate..."
etc? !
Why did she think of this?
Gu Ling immediately shook his head in horror.
"Impossible! It is absolutely impossible for such a horrible thing to happen again!"
Gu Ling took one last look at his current bank card balance and sighed deeply.
The happiness of a millionaire is so short-lived.
The profession of beast master is easy to make money, but it is also very expensive.
She must get the championship bonus of the friendly competition, otherwise she will have no money to buy all the resources she needs later.
"Xianjiu, I'm going out for daily training."
After hearing Gu Ling's words, Xianjiu put down the tablet reluctantly and jumped off the bed: "Miwu~"
When Gu Ling came down from the second floor, he saw Xiang Jinli already busy making breakfast in the kitchen.
"Second Aunt, I'm going out for a run~"
"Hey! Remember to come back in half an hour..."
After completing a simple set of warm-up exercises in front of his home, Gu Ling took Xianjiu and started running along the route of the road.
Passing by small private houses one after another, Gu Ling adjusted his breathing while focusing on looking at the nearby scenery.
Passing by an old tree, a few little carrot-headed children gathered together and chattered.
"...I heard there is a haunted house on the island."
"There must be a haunted house! I heard my grandpa say it too!"
Gu Ling keenly heard the word "island" and couldn't help but pause in his steps, stopping to catch his breath.
One of the little boys had a serious look on his face, and his hands were in the shape of claws, waving in the air: "Yes, my grandpa said it too! There are very scary monsters in the haunted house that will eat children... those long tongues , you can tie up five children together and swallow them..."
The vivid description made several timid children turn pale with fright.
An older boy next to him curled his lips: "I also heard my dad say that, but that island was abandoned many years ago and no one lives in it anymore. What ghosts are there? Even if there are monsters, there are no ghosts there. We are already trapped up there and can’t come down to eat the kids.”
A little girl asked curiously: "Is it lonely up there with the monster alone..."
"Niuniu, if you feel that the monster is lonely, you might as well become the monster's bride and accompany it..."
When the little girl heard this, she was so frightened that she shook her head: "I don't want it! I don't want to leave my mother..."
"..."
Gu Ling wanted to hear more, but many of these little brats seemed to be frightened and left in a hurry.
"Island? Haunted house? Monster?"
Gu Ling didn't believe in any monsters. At most, there were some scary-looking pet beasts on the island, and then word of mouth spread among uninformed people, and they became known as "monsters."
