After listening to the story of the gluttonous ghost, Gu Ling suddenly realized: "So, you are afraid that after the island is transformed and developed, the appearance will change, and the little boy will not be able to recognize the road when he comes back, so you go around to scare people? Do you want to stop the project? ?”
The glutton nodded.
Seeing the glutton's disappointed expression, Gu Ling said unbearably: "Actually, the people who originally lived on this island had moved to the opposite continent decades ago and will never come back."
"But the person you are looking for may be over there."
Hearing this, the glutton's blood-red eyes lit up.
"Jie Jie~" Really?
Gu Ling nodded: "Really, I never lie to others."
"Glutty, would you like to leave the island with us and go find someone there?"
"But I have a condition. After you go out, you can no longer scare or hurt others. Otherwise, the beast alliance outside will send people to arrest you and lock you up."
Upon hearing this, the glutton suddenly became nervous.
Was that human being who was difficult to deal with just now sent by some alliance?
Gu Ling comforted him: "You don't have to be too nervous. As long as you haven't done anything bad, they won't just catch the pet beast."
The glutton was still a little uneasy.
Although it has stayed on the island these years and has not had much contact with humans, it can be remembered that some humans hate ghost beasts like it.
Once discovered, evictions are carried out.
"Bang~" At this time, the Explosive Rat suddenly called out and looked towards the door with some excitement.
Gu Ling was stunned for a moment, then immediately took out his cell phone, and saw the message just sent by Gu Mingsheng, indicating that he was already outside the haunted house.
Gu Ling sent a message and briefly explained the current situation.
The glutton also noticed that there were several more humans outside, and his expression suddenly became tense.
"Glutious Ghost, don't be nervous. I just said that as long as you don't do anything bad, no one will come to catch you." Gu Ling quickly comforted Gluttonous Ghost.
"I know the people outside. I'll go out and communicate with him first."
Gu Ling asked Xianjiu and Hot Rat to stay in the house while he went out to find Gu Mingsheng and explained the situation in detail.
"So that's it..." Gu Mingsheng's face relaxed slightly.
Now that Gu Ling has subdued the glutton, this mission is completed.
"I also asked Yang Cun on the way here."
Yang Cun is the name of the man in the suit.
"Although this glutton has been scaring people and causing damage, it has not really harmed humans."
"If it is willing to leave the island and stop destroying the projects on the island, then our task will be completed, and there is no need to capture it and hand it over to the Pet Beast Alliance."
The Pet Beast Alliance has relevant regulations. If a wild pet beast breaks into a residential area and kills people, no matter what the reason is, the nearby beast master must arrest it and hand it over to the Pet Beast Alliance for processing.
Depending on the situation, some pet animals may be imprisoned for a period of time and then released into the wild; some pet animals may be kept in a protected area for life and monitored at all times; some pet animals may even be euthanized.
"That's good." Gu Ling also relaxed a little.
After listening to Greedy Ghost's story, Gu Ling could feel that Greedy Ghost was not a ferocious wild beast, and did not want Greedy Ghost to be captured and taken to the Pet Beast Alliance.
Gu Mingsheng took out a silver-ringed item from his backpack and handed it to Gu Ling: "This is a pet suppressor. When the pet wears it, it can suppress the strength of the pet. You can put it on the glutton." , its strength will be suppressed to the extraordinary level, and as long as the suppressor is not removed, it will not be able to use skills with warrior-level power."
"You have agreed to help Greedy find someone, and you will be responsible for taking care of Greedy. Fiery Rat will stay with you for the time being. Although Greedy's experience is relatively pitiful, don't let down your guard."
Most of the wild beasts are wild and untamable, and they are not bound by contracts. If they disagree, they may become violent and harm humans.
Therefore, if uncontracted wild pets want to enter residential areas and live with humans, they need to wear a pet suppressor. This is equivalent to adding a layer of insurance, which can effectively prevent wild pets from suddenly going berserk and hurting people.
The pet suppressor given by Gu Mingsheng is one of the genuine products officially launched by the pet alliance. Its function is to suppress the strength level of the pet. There will be no side effects after the pet wears it.
Gu Ling had learned this knowledge in school and knew how to use the pet beast suppressor.
"Okay, I'll take it and put it on the glutton." Gu Ling said.
Although Greedy Ghost looks a bit silly and cute, it is actually a warrior-level wild pet beast. It has a pet beast suppressor, and the Fiery Rat is watching from the side, so it can be a little safer.
When Gu Ling returned to the haunted house with the pet beast suppressor, he saw Xianjiu sticking his butt out and his head digging around in the backpack he left behind.
After Xianjiu emerged from his backpack, he still held a bottle of healing spray in his paws.
The gluttonous ghost sat quietly beside him, and when he saw Xianjiu approaching, he stretched out his two injured chubby hands.
Xianjiu used his mind to control the healing spray to float over, and then he pressed the nozzle of the healing spray beside him, and a cool mist of water suddenly spurted out and sprinkled on the glutton's wounds.
"Jie Jie~"
Greedy Ghost immediately felt that the burning sensation on his body was relieved a lot, and it was refreshing and cool, as if he had been soaked in ice water, which made him unable to help but let out a groan.
Two seconds later, the glutton began to blink his big blood-red eyes, hoping that Xianjiu would squirt a little more.
Gu Ling came over and put the pet beast suppressor on one of Greedy Ghost's chubby hands: "Greedy Ghost, put on this suppressor and you can follow us."
"Jie Jie~" Hearing this, the glutton jumped up excitedly, bouncing up and down like a rubber ball.
Gu Ling raised his hand and touched the glutton's head: "It's too late now. When you go back, you can stay at my house temporarily. When I get up tomorrow morning, I'll go find someone with you. What do you think?"
The glutton nodded repeatedly.
When Gu Ling came out with Greedy Ghost, Gu Mingsheng looked up and down at the alienated Greedy Ghost.
When he noticed the gazes of Gu Mingsheng and Bai Yudiao and Walilang standing beside him, the glutton shrank his chubby body and hid behind Gu Ling.
The chubby little hand also covered his eyes, pretending not to see anything.
Gu Mingsheng coughed lightly: "Everything is settled, we can go back."
Gu Ling: "Okay."
"..."
On the boat ride back to the sea.
Gu Ling looked at the curious baby Gluttony floating here and there on the deck, and asked aloud: "Gluttony, have you shown any signs of evolution before? Why did you stop again?"
"Jiejie..."
The glutton made two gestures with his chubby hands.
Through Xianjiu's translation, Gu Ling learned that Greedy Ghost had shown signs of evolution dozens of times before, but he had endured them all.
Gu Ling was a little confused: "Why? Isn't it a good thing to be able to evolve?"
Xian Jiu on the side also nodded in agreement.
Originally, Gu Ling thought it was because Greedy Ghost had some kind of evolutionary blockade that prevented him from evolving, but he didn't expect that Greedy Ghost himself didn't want to evolve.
The glutton's chubby hands pointed in front of him: "Jie Jie..." Because after evolution, his appearance will change. If my friend comes back, he won't be able to recognize me.
Gu Ling was silent for a moment, and then said: "Then when you find the person, you won't have to interrupt the evolution anymore."
Without relying on the power of the Immortal Stone, forcibly interrupting evolution will definitely cause some kind of adverse reaction to the pet beast.
The glutton's alienated body is the sequelae of forcibly interrupting evolution.
Although Greedy Ghost's current appearance is not ugly and is quite unique, but if Greedy Ghost does not fully evolve, his qualifications will always fluctuate.
Gu Ling guessed that these two qualification values corresponded to the qualification values of the two forms of Greedy Ghost. When Greedy Ghost fully evolved, the qualification values should be stable.
"Such a high qualification, and at the age of a glutton, he is just a baby, and there is still room for cultivation..."
Gu Ling was a little excited, but when he thought that his current pet beast space level had not broken through to two stars, he immediately stopped thinking.
The most important thing now is to help Greedy find his old friend and fulfill Greedy's wish.
Gu Ling continued to ask: "Glutty, do you remember the name of that little boy? Or what are his characteristics?"
After so many years, the appearance of the little boy must have changed drastically.
Gu Ling couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find someone.
Another point is that after so many years, even if the little boy is still alive, he is now 84 years old.
Although the medical level is more advanced now than it was a few decades ago, and many people can live to be 90 or over 100 years old, life is full of accidents. Maybe in the past few decades, that little boy will die early due to some accidents. He is no longer alive.
"...Jie Jie." The glutton's chubby hands gestured.
If it could see that person again, it would definitely recognize it.
Gu Ling suddenly remembered a legend about ghost beasts.
Legend has it that under certain conditions, a dead creature can have its soul immortalized and become a ghost beast. Because of the existence of the legend, some researchers think that the ghost beast might just be a soul body.
Although the legend is just a legend and there is no real conclusion, the ghost beast does have some unique perception in terms of soul power.
For example, ghost pet beasts can feel the unique soul breath of each creature.
…
After returning home, Gu Ling found that none of Xiang Jinli and the others were asleep. They were all wearing pajamas and watching TV in the living room to pass the time while waiting for someone.
When the two came back, there was a glutton behind them, so they were naturally seen.
Gu Zhou pointed at the green glutton with surprise on his face: "Gu Ling, what is this?"
The glutton glared angrily: You are a thing!
Gu Ling quickly explained: "This is not a thing."
Hearing this, the glutton nodded.
right!
It's not a thing! (っ｀)っ
"He is the ghost beast on the island, the gluttonous ghost."
Gu Ya was a little puzzled: "I remember that the glutton didn't look like this? And he didn't have a green glow all over his body."
"The evolution of Greedy Ghost stopped, and then a little mutation occurred, and it became what it is now..." Gu Ling quickly explained to Xiang Jinli and the others about Greedy Ghost.
After hearing this, Xiang Jinli's eyes flashed with pity: "Then this child is quite pitiful. He has been alone on the island and has no one to talk to him."
"There are still some small cakes in the refrigerator, glutton, are you hungry?"
As soon as he heard that there were small cakes, Greedy Ghost's eyes immediately lit up. He patted his belly with his chubby hand and said that he could eat many more small cakes.
Gu Ling smiled on his face: "Glutty, those little cakes of mine were all prepared by my second aunt."
"Jie Jie~" The glutton couldn't help but float to the top of Xiang Jinli's head, circling back and forth. There was a hint of naivety in the big blood-red eyes that should have been scary.
"Then wait a minute, I'll take it out now."
Xiang Jinli was also very happy.
There is another pet animal in the family who can appreciate her cooking skills.
"..."
This night, there were two more guests in Gu Ling's room.
——The Gluttonous Ghost and the Hot Rat.
Gluttons floated on the ceiling, passing curiously through the surrounding walls.
In the blink of an eye, there was only a chubby hand wearing a suppressor waving on the wall.
The fiery rat, on the other hand, was relatively quiet. He lay down on the mat prepared by Gu Ling and began to rest with his eyes closed, as if he was ready to sleep.
Xianjiu, on the other hand, was sitting on the bed, playing games on the tablet, and occasionally yelling at the tablet, as if to yell at someone.
After the glutton was tired of browsing the whole room, he turned around and was attracted by the game sound effects coming from the tablet in Xianjiu's hand.
"Jie Jie?"
The gluttonous ghost watched curiously as Xianjiu controlled the pet beast inside.
The glutton has been isolated from the world on the island for decades. This is the first time he has seen a tablet, and it is also the first time he has seen such a realistic pet beast 'closed' inside the tablet. He can't help but wonder.
Why are these pet beasts locked inside?
But it doesn't feel the soul breath?
Xianjiu glanced at the glutton with the eyes of a country bumpkin: "Miwu~" This is a game.
Then, Xianjiu glanced at Greedy Gui's two flexible little chubby hands, and an idea slowly took shape...
When Gu Ling returned to the room after taking a shower, he saw Greedy Gui and Xianjiu sitting in rows on the bed, sitting in extremely well-behaved postures.
If you can ignore the two pet beasts... one is holding her tablet, the other is holding her mobile phone, and they are playing a black game in a team.
A message slowly appeared on Gu Ling's forehead:?
……no.
She just asked Xianjiu to take care of Greedy Gui, and then Xianjiu took Greedy Gui directly to play black games?
Seeing the two pet beasts having fun, Gu Ling sighed deeply, then walked over in a few steps and confiscated all his tablets and mobile phones very cruelly!
The tablet and mobile phone were taken away at once. Xianjiu and Greedy Gui looked up at Gu Ling at the same time, their eyes pitiful.
"...It's time to go to bed. I have to get up early tomorrow to find someone." Gu Ling looked indifferent, turned off his tablet and mobile phone, and plugged in the charging cable to charge.
