chapter 9 magical beasts

Hallan Kirkland stared intently at the little beast in front of him. He was certain that this was a type he had never seen before. However, the Ye Lin Empire is mainly based on mountains and forests, and it is not surprising that there are many kinds of small beasts that I have not seen before.

With a thought in his heart, he remembered what his sister Mineko Kirkland before going out, shook his head with a wry smile, and said to himself.

"Since I promised my sister, let's take you back. Don't worry, my sister will treat you well."

The next words were naturally meant for the little beast in front of him. The little beast just tilted his head in response to Hallan Kirkland's words, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

Hallan Kirkland secretly circulated his spiritual energy, stepped hard on the ground with his soles, and his body rushed forward like an arrow from a string. The little beast's silver-gray pupils shrank, and its gray hair stood on end.

Less than two feet away, Hallan Kirkland arrived in the blink of an eye and quickly reached out to grab it. The smile still hung on his face, but the next moment he was shocked to find that his palm had passed through the little beast's body, and there was only an afterimage left there.

Unable to control his momentum, Zuo Feng rushed forward and almost fell to the ground due to the wrong use of force. After standing firm, Hallan Kirkland quickly looked around and found that the little beast had appeared next to him again, this time only ten feet away from him.

"Zhizhi"

The little beast roared as if mocking Hallan Kirkland, and at the same time raised its two front paws, relying on its two hind paws to lift up. Hallan Kirkland looked at the little beast in front of him with a bit of laughter. Through the test just now, he already knew that trying to catch the little beast in front of him at his own speed was no different from dreaming.

Since he couldn't catch it, Hallan Kirkland stopped wasting his energy and picked up the dagger and walked towards the big tree on the side.

While he continued to scrape the bark, he recalled in his mind the movements of the little beast just now. How could the little beast be so fast with its short legs like little fingers. Faintly, Hallan Kirkland became more interested in this little beast, but he couldn't catch it and everything was in vain.

Hallan Kirkland accidentally looked to the side, and the little beast actually followed him, less than two feet away from him, looking at him curiously.

He found that this little beast seemed to be willing to follow him, which was almost impossible. The little beasts he had seen usually stayed away from humans when they saw them, but the little beast in front of him was not afraid of him at all.

With a thought in his heart, he took out the dry food he had brought with him when he left home in the morning, broke off a piece of it and threw it towards the little beast. The little beast dodged away quickly, then came back curiously, sniffed the small piece of dry food, and looked up at Hallan Kirkland again without the slightest interest.

'What the hell is this place on the top of the mountain? How can there be so many strange things? First, there was the Fantasy of a woman who was so powerful that it was almost ridiculous, and now there is a little beast with abnormal speed and no need to eat solid food. Hallan Kirkland murmured in his heart. It was only at this moment that he began to think that this mountain, to be precise, the top of the mountain was too special. It's just that I am still in deep danger and have no energy or time to investigate in detail.

'It seems that I can only wait until I have free time in the future to search carefully here.' Thinking of this, Hallan Kirkland speeded up his hands. He and Lowell Kirkland must leave the Dongshan area before dawn. This is the top priority.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Hallan Kirkland felt that the bark he had blown off was enough, so he sat down on the ground tiredly.

Feeling something around him, he turned his head and saw that the little beast was not far from his hand.

Hallan Kirkland almost forgot about this little beast, but he didn't expect it to still be here. Suddenly remembering something, Hallan Kirkland reached into the package and took out more than a dozen medicine packets. These were several medicines he made when he was studying medicine with his master Melita.

Some are used to treat external injuries, some are used to treat internal injuries, some are used to set bones, and some are used to restore a small amount of spiritual energy. He took out all these medicine bags at once and placed them in front of the little beast who was close at hand.

At this moment, the distance between him and the little beast was very close, but he knew that it was still impossible to catch it suddenly, so he was thinking about how to lure the little beast to follow him voluntarily.

This little beast didn't buy Hallan Kirkland's account at all. He just sniffed the medicine packets and ignored them, still looking at Hallan Kirkland persistently.

Hallan Kirkland was almost certain that there must be something about him that attracted it. Moreover, he found that this little beast was different from others of its kind and should have a certain degree of intelligence. This was purely an intuition without any basis.

He took out everything he had on him, including the remaining dry food, and even his own coins and daggers, and placed them in front of the little beast.

The little beast didn't even look away this time, still staring at him. Hallan Kirkland, who was a little speechless, really had no choice but the slightest chill in his chest reminded him of the two jade bottles. An idea flashed in his mind and he quickly took one out of his arms.

As soon as the little jade bottle appeared, the little beast's silver-gray eyes became a little brighter. Hallan Kirkland saw its reaction and was secretly happy, 'It seems that this little beast is actually interested in this thing.'

He held the jade bottle in his palm and slowly brought it to the little beast. The little beast looked at the jade bottle in Hallan Kirkland's hand with joy, but he seemed a little hesitant, as if the little beast was struggling in his heart for a while before he cautiously approached.

Its furry little body finally came to Hallan Kirkland hand. The jade bottle was almost as big as its body. The little beast raised his head and glanced at Hallan Kirkland again. As if he had made up his mind, he gently climbed up to Hallan Kirkland's hand and hugged the jade bottle.

Hallan Kirkland was not worried at all about the little beast snatching away the jade bottle, because although the speed of the little beast was amazing, it was almost impossible to take away the jade bottle that was even larger than its body.

The little beast was in Hallan Kirkland's palm, holding the jade bottle with an excited face and letting out a "squeak" sound. Suddenly, it stretched out its pink little tongue and licked the cork.

Hallan Kirkland was always paying attention to the movement of this little beast, and of course he would not let go of this subtle move.

'It turns out that this little guy likes this bottle stopper. 'Recalling Fantasy's words before leaving, the cold power in the jade bottle can cover a ten-mile radius, so this bottle stopper must not be an ordinary thing.

Hallan Kirkland thought for a moment, then tilted his hand slightly and put the bottle and the little beast on the ground. The little beast first looked at it vigilantly and found nothing unusual. Then he happily picked up the jade bottle and rolled it on the ground.

Ignoring this strange little guy, Hallan Kirkland picked up two pieces of bark and tied them end to end. He knew that if he wanted to subdue the little beast in front of him, brute force would never be enough. Patience and wisdom were the keys.

'Let him get close to this bottle first', Hallan Kirkland thought with a smirk on his lips.

Making a rope is much easier than scraping bark. It only took Hallan Kirkland a little more than a quarter of an hour to make a long rope. Because the rope is made of tree bark, it is difficult to detect even during the day.

Looking back, I saw the little beast still holding the bottle and loving it. Hallan Kirkland showed a smile and reached out to grab it. The little beast looked at the jade bottle in his hand with some reluctance, but he quickly dodged away. Hallan Kirkland didn't care and slowly grabbed the jade bottle and put it in his arms.

The little beast was squeaking anxiously on the ground. Hallan Kirkland looked at the little beast kindly and said.

"If you like this cork, then follow me."

After saying that, he took out the jade bottle again and waved it in front of the little beast's eyes. Seeing the little beast's eyes full of prayer and reluctance, he deliberately and slowly put the bottle into his arms again.

The little beast looked at Hallan Kirkland, who was walking slowly towards the mountainside, and instinctively followed behind, reluctant to let the "Jade Ping" leave.

Hallan Kirkland looked behind him with his peripheral vision, but he couldn't help but say in his heart, "Follow me, come with me quickly." 'Until Hallan Kirkland reached the edge of the mountain, the little beast's eyes were full of reluctance, and he still kept a distance and followed behind.

After Hallan Kirkland came to the mountainside, he found a large raised rock and wrapped the "bark rope" in his hand several times to tighten it. He did all this very slowly in order to give the little beast behind him more time. Make a decision.

At this moment, he felt no better than the little beast, who couldn't bear to part with his cork. He loved this amazingly fast, smart and cute little guy.

Even if Hallan Kirkland kept stalling for time, he would finally get the rope ready. Turning back and taking another look at the little beast not far away, Hallan Kirkland gritted his teeth and climbed down the rope. Although he was reluctant to let go of the little beast, he was not a sloppy person after all.

Hallan Kirkland slid down the rope, which was many times easier than when he climbed up. Just as he lowered his head and looked down, the sound of breaking wind came from above his head.

Then a palm-sized black shadow kept getting bigger in his sight, and before he was surprised, the black shadow had already landed on his shoulder. If he hadn't been prepared when he heard the sound, he might have been knocked down this time.

"Little guy, you should choose to follow me in the end."

The one that fell down was naturally the little beast just now. The little beast stared at Hallan Kirkland. Suddenly, there was a loud "Zhizhi" call twice, as if protesting something to Zuo Feng.

After barking a few times, the little beast ignored Hallan Kirkland and got into Hallan Kirkland Feng's arms where he kept the jade bottle with a "swish" sound. Seeing its furious look, Hallan Kirkland couldn't help but laugh. "It seems that this little guy has been eyeing the bottle. He even remembers where I put it in my arms so clearly." "Feeling the little beast in my arms, I jumped up and down with the jade bottle in my arms, stretched out my hand and patted it gently a few times, and said.

"If you're going to follow me well, be honest inside, or I'll throw you away right now."

Hallan Kirkland didn't want to have him and Lowell Kirkland discovered by the enemy because of the little beast when he escaped from here. Although he was not sure whether the little beast could understand what he just said, he had a feeling that the little beast would understand what he meant.

The little beast did not disappoint Hallan Kirkland. Sure enough, its little body stopped making noises.

Hallan Kirkland, who was about to continue climbing down, froze with his hands frozen and looked into his arms in disbelief.
