The next day, around noon.
"Roar!"
The Meteor Horn Beast woke up late. The sun was already high overhead, and its brilliant rays shone on its face before it slowly got up.
The farm owner was nowhere to be seen, and even the big sister that Duck Duck Senior and the others spoke of was gone.
Bang, bang, bang!
Iron Head was already practicing his skills in the yard, his sharp blade constantly chopping at the large rock in front of him, sparks flying as it scraped and left marks.
His training was particularly arduous, his eyes showing determination, and he put all his strength into each attack.
He's really working hard.
Watching Iron Head train so diligently, and thinking about all the things it had eaten since coming to the farm, the Meteor Horn Beast felt a sense of guilt.
It couldn't just eat and drink for free!
The Meteor Horn Beast strode around the farm. When it saw Bean Bean Chicken leading a group of chicks in a line, it remembered Duck Duck Senior's teachings—when encountering Bean Bean Chicken and the chicks, always give way, or something terrible will happen!
The Meteor Horn Beast hurriedly moved its body, sticking close to the wall on the other side, leaving enough space for them to pass.
Bean Bean Chicken stopped halfway, suddenly stopping and looking up at the Meteor Horn Beast.
"Roar?"
Bean Bean Chicken's eyes were very calm, but they made the Meteor Horn Beast extremely nervous, and it even began to wonder where it had angered it.
"Cluck cluck ~"
But Bean Bean Chicken just waved its wings at it, then looked ahead and continued on with the chicks.
The clucking sounds gradually faded away, and the Meteor Horn Beast finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Before long, the Meteor Horn Beast came to the fish pond and saw Run Run Duck basking in the sun on a large rock.
It felt that Run Run Duck Senior was the best to it.
As soon as it arrived at the farm, Run Run Duck Senior took out a pile of delicious food, letting it eat its fill.
And that little fish, it was so delicious.
Just thinking about it, the Meteor Horn Beast's stomach rumbled, and hunger struck.
"Quack quack!"
Run Run Duck waved its wings at the Meteor Horn Beast!
Big guy, come over here and bask in the sun!
"Roar."
The Meteor Horn Beast was suddenly silent.
Should it train with Iron Head?
Or should it bask in the sun with Duck Duck Senior?
But soon, the Meteor Horn Beast remembered the farm owner's high expectations for it, and remembered what he had said about the riding competition, and its eyes became firm: "Roar roar!"
It had to train!
Train hard!
"Dee dee ~"
At this time, the sleepy Dee Dee Flying Cat flew out of the small tree house and flew to the side of the two little guys.
Good morning, Duck Duck ~
Good morning, big guy ~
"Roar!"
"Quack quack!"
The two little guys responded at the same time.
"Roar roar?"
The Meteor Horn Beast remembered its purpose and hurriedly asked the two farm seniors how it should train.
"Quack quack ~"
Run Run Duck waved its wings, answering irrelevantly:
Why not bask in the sun by the fish pond ~
"Roar?"
The Meteor Horn Beast was puzzled by Run Run Duck's answer, but it tilted its head and asked again:
You misunderstood me, Duck Duck Senior. I mean, we must do something while staying on the farm. How should I train myself?
Run Run Duck lay comfortably on the big rock, enjoying the gentle caress of the sun, casually waving its wings: "Quack quack!"
You should bask in the sun by the fish pond!
The Meteor Horn Beast was even more puzzled by Run Run Duck's answer, so it turned its pleading gaze to Dee Dee Flying Cat.
"Dee dee ~"
Dee Dee Flying Cat's eyes rolled, and a good idea suddenly popped into its head.
Run!
Only by running constantly can you run faster and make the farm owner more satisfied!
"Roar roar roar!"
Hearing this, the Meteor Horn Beast's eyes burned with passion, eager to try.
"Dee dee!"
Dee Dee Flying Cat quickly stopped the Meteor Horn Beast, which was about to start running, and pointed its paw outside the farm.
The farm is too small, let's go outside!
You carry me and run!
Then you can carry the farm owner better in the future!
The Meteor Horn Beast didn't know how to refuse and readily agreed.
Before leaving the farm, Dee Dee Flying Cat found Chen Weiyi in the hall: "Dee dee ~"
"Want money again?" Chen Weiyi was no stranger to Dee Dee Flying Cat's request.
A few days ago, Dee Dee Flying Cat didn't know where it learned to use money to buy things. It asked him for money when Chen Yuan was out and went to the village to buy snacks.
Chen Weiyi just treated it as raising another child, enjoying it, and never refused Dee Dee Flying Cat's requests.
"Here, remember to have the shopkeeper give you change." Chen Weiyi put the money in a small purse and tied it around Dee Dee Flying Cat's neck.
"Dee dee ~"
Dee Dee Flying Cat flapped its yellow wings, flew out of the hall, and sat on the Meteor Horn Beast's back.
Then, the Meteor Horn Beast carried Dee Dee Flying Cat and ran out of the farm.
It was noon, and Zhao San finally had time to sit down and eat a hot meal.
After finishing lunch, his wife went to wash the dishes, while he sat in front of the shop, looking at the Beast Tamers who passed by from time to time, and shouted: "Fresh fruits, sweet and big!"
Occasionally, someone stopped to ask about the price, and he immediately got up.
Busy for a while, his face was full of happy smiles.
A few days ago, he heard that many tourists from other places had come to the neighboring Xuanhe Village, most of whom were Beast Tamers who were not short of money. As a result, Xuanhe Village had developed rapidly, with farmhouses and shops springing up one after another.
Since his child was of school age and the need for money had increased, Zhao San immediately had the idea. He first conducted an on-site investigation and confirmed that the rumors were true, and then quickly took over a shop and brought his family to Xuanhe Village.
On weekdays, he stayed in Xuanhe Village to sell fruits, and in his spare time, he returned to his village to farm.
Business had indeed been very good these days. Beast Tamers who went into the mountains to train usually bought some fruits.
These days, there is more and more hope.
Zhao San was thinking happily when suddenly a large figure loomed over the shop door. He subconsciously looked up: "Fresh fruits, sweet and..."
However, the next moment, his voice stopped abruptly. He stared blankly at the huge figure in front of him, then looked terrified and took a half step back.
An unfamiliar pet beast he had never seen before.
But soon, Zhao San regained his composure, secretly scolding himself for being afraid of a pet beast, and a smile appeared on his face: "Is there anything you need?"
But he looked left and right and didn't see the figure of the Beast Tamer who brought this pet beast.
"Dee dee ~"
A Dee Dee Flying Cat poked its head out from behind the huge figure, its round eyes staring at the fresh fruits on the stall, its eyes shining.
Dee Dee Flying Cat flapped its yellow wings, flew to the stall, carefully looked at the fruits, and soon stretched out its paw, pointing to one of the golden yellow fruits: "Dee dee!"
I want it!
But Zhao San looked around and still didn't see the Beast Tamer who brought these two pet beasts, but the next second, the Dee Dee Flying Cat in front of him took off the purse from its neck, took out a handful of money from it, and put it in front of him.
Zhao San was stunned in place: "Ah?"
A pet beast is using money to buy things?
Could he still be asleep?
But even pet beasts are guests. Suppressing his inner curiosity and surprise, Zhao San asked again: "Where is your Beastmaster?"
"Dee dee ~"
Dee Dee Flying Cat impatiently shook its head.
What's wrong with this human?
Can't Dee Dee Flying Cat come to buy things on its own?
At this moment, a voice rang in his ear: "Little Zhao, just sell it to this little fellow."
Zhao San turned his head and saw Uncle Zhao, who rented the shop to him, and quickly said: "But its Beastmaster isn't with it."
Uncle Zhao shook his head and looked at Dee Dee Flying Cat, saying: "I know this little fellow. Its owner is Little Chen from our village."
No mistakes, one first, one hair, one inside, one content, one at a glance!
"Dee dee..."
Seeing Uncle Zhao, Dee Dee Flying Cat's expression instantly became unnatural.
It was the one who stole the Luminous Fruit from his house back then.
Uncle Zhao continued: "Little Zhao, you came late, you don't know that this little fellow often comes to the street to buy things."
"Sometimes it buys snacks, sometimes it buys some small toys."
"Sell it to it, it's okay."
Hearing these words, Zhao San felt a little dizzy and nodded subconsciously: "Oh, okay."
Putting the fruits that Dee Dee Flying Cat had chosen into a bag, Zhao San took the money, gave change, and handed it over.
Then, Zhao San watched as Dee Dee Flying Cat carefully counted the change he gave, its eyes flashing with the light of wisdom.
"Dee dee ~"
Confirming that he hadn't given the wrong change, Dee Dee Flying Cat nodded, picked up the bag, flew back onto the back of the Fallen Meteor Horn Beast, and the two, one big and one small, quickly disappeared.
Watching their departing backs, Zhao San murmured in a low voice: "These pet beasts are too smart, aren't they? They can buy things themselves and even count money?"
After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said: "Smarter than that brat of mine."
Uncle Zhao smiled and said: "Maybe it's because they are the pet beasts of Little Chen's family."
Zhao San curiously asked: "Uncle Zhao, is this Little Chen you're talking about a Beastmaster living in the village?"
"Yeah."
Mentioning Little Chen, a proud smile naturally appeared on Uncle Zhao's face, "Little Chen is the first Beastmaster in our village, and the most outstanding one."
The locals in the shops next door heard their discussion, they looked at Zhao San, this outsider, their eyes revealing the pride and arrogance of being a Xuanhe Village local:
"Little Chen is very powerful. He was on TV some time ago. It is said that many prominent figures in our Baokun City know him!"
Zhao San suddenly remembered that he had heard some time ago that a big figure had emerged from Xuanhe Village next door, so he tentatively asked: "Is it the Beastmaster who participated in the competition?"
"Yes, yes."
"Little Zhao, you are also a young man, how come you haven't even watched this competition?"
"It shouldn't be. When you come to our village, you may not know other people, but you must know Little Chen."
Zhao San scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "You know, I have the old and the young to take care of. I'm busy making money all day long. I don't have time to pay attention to these things."
Uncle Zhao nodded: "Little Zhao is a young man with ambition. After you come to Xuanhe Village, your life will get better and better."
"Yes, yes."
After a long time,
The shop became quiet. Zhao San sat at the door, staring at the long street for a long time, muttering: "That brat, he still hasn't come home for dinner."
As soon as he finished speaking, a vigorous figure rushed into the shop: "Dad, I'm back!"
With a serious face, Zhao San stopped his child and glared at him fiercely: "You still know to come home. What time is it now?"
"Running around all day long, and..."
Looking at Little Zhao, whose clothes were dirty, he was even more angry and scolded: "Your mother has enough to do, do you think she's not tired enough?"
"Change your clothes, I'll wash them later."
But looking at Little Zhao, who wasn't even as tall as his thigh, Zhao San's heart softened again.
He had also gone through this when he was a child.
However, clothes can be washed when they get dirty, but irregular eating habits are bad for the stomach in the long run.
Little Zhao immediately said: "Dad, didn't you tell me to strive to become a Beastmaster when I grow up?"
"I just watched them fight at the entrance of the village. It was so exciting."
Zhao San looked at him suspiciously: "Why would there be Beastmasters fighting at the entrance of the village?"
"Really!"
Little Zhao raised his head high, his eyes shining, gesticulating with his hands: "It's not that Beastmasters are fighting, it's just, it's just that there's a group of dogs at the entrance of the village, and the Beastmaster is fighting with this group of dogs."
Zhao San glared at him: "You're not learning well at such a young age, and you've even learned to lie."
Beastmaster fighting with dogs?
How could there be such an absurd thing?
"Oh, really, it's a Beastmaster fighting with dogs!"
Seeing that his dad didn't believe him, Little Zhao was instantly anxious, hugged his thigh, and kept shaking it, "Really, really! You believe me, Dad!"
"It's that big, big dog with a white tail!"
"We saw it when we came!"
Zhao San's eyes flickered. When he brought his wife and son to Xuanhe Village, he did see this big, big dog, surrounded by a group of dogs in the middle, with a light brown body and a white tail.
"First, a Beastmaster fought with this big dog and didn't win, then one Beastmaster after another ran to fight, but they all lost."
Little Zhao said excitedly.
"Is this big dog so powerful? Is it a pet beast of some Beastmaster?"
Seeing Little Zhao's expression, Zhao San, who knew his child well, believed his statement.
Some children think they are good at lying and have deceived their parents many times. In fact, for parents, it's just that they don't want to expose them.
"I know, I know!"
Hearing Zhao San's question, Little Zhao raised his hand high and said excitedly, "Little Taozi told me!"
"Who is Little Taozi again?"
Zhao San asked.
"Little Taozi is a new friend I made. She has a cold these two days and didn't go to school."
"Oh, oh, what did she tell you?"
"Little Taozi said that there is a very powerful Beastmaster living in the village, and the big dog at the entrance of the village is his pet beast."
Hearing this, Zhao San's mind moved, and he subconsciously said: "Is this Beastmaster surnamed Chen?"
Little Zhao's eyes widened: "Dad, how do you know?"
Zhao San secretly thought that it was indeed so, but a faint smile appeared on his face: "Of course, your dad can figure it out with a pinch of his fingers, and knows everything."
"Okay, go take off your dirty clothes."
Zhao San rubbed Little Zhao's head, but his gaze looked towards the long street.
That was the direction Dee Dee Flying Cat and Fallen Meteor Horn Beast had left in.
