Chapter 29: Subduing the Beast

When Yuan Hong heard this, he immediately put the red book on the elementary Lingmeng technique back into his bag, and hid the bag, and then opened the door.

"Little brother, it's not good, it's not good! your mount is gone, maybe it's a thief!"

The chattering Tang Yi Chang stood in front of the door, his expression extremely flustered. An hour ago, his face was still drunk and flushed, and after a short rest, it turned pale after a short accident. This may have been due to the chain reaction of the brutal woman's intimidation, after all, the Holy Lord alone ordered this thing to crush people.

"Hey, I thought something was wrong, a little thing, look at your panic!"

Yuan Hong asked Tang Yichang to open the side door in the backyard and came to the enclosure with him. First, he made his way to the stall of his mount, and found that the chain had been broken from the root near the tether.

Looking around, seeing that the cows, horses, mules, and donkeys were all looking safe, and seeing that several lions, tigers, and beasts in the enclosure were all in a commotion, Yuan Hong seemed to understand something. He quickly approached one of the ligers, grabbed the chain that held it together, and slowly walked backwards until he reached the knotted pillar.

At this time, he could see clearly without lifting the chain, the top and bottom of the knot were worn marks, and there was no dirt or muddy water on the stone pillar, which was obviously newly erected.

Without hesitation, he quickly checked the others, and the results were the same.

"Don't worry, it won't be long before it comes back on its own. Yuan Hong approached Tang Yichang and patted him on the shoulder, as if to comfort him. But he should have comforted Yuan Hong.

"Will you really come back by yourself?" Chief Tang seemed to be worried about the issue of compensation, and his expression was extremely uneasy. He was even more skeptical of Yuan Hong's statement.

In less than a cup of tea, the missing lion and tiger beast roared in a low voice and strolled back, like a happy and leisurely son.

Seeing the lion and tiger beast licking its calves playfully, Yuan Hong also stroked its mane in turn, and said happily: "Look, I know you won't abandon me." Since you like waves so much, I'll take you around in the future - well, I have to give you a name for a little wave, just Geng Qiang, and a nickname called Xiao Qiang. ”

Hearing this, the lion and tiger beast lazily lay on its back on the ground, its limbs kicked wildly, and its eyes narrowed into a line, as if it liked the name Gengqiang very much.

"Little brother is really like a god, no wonder the Holy Lord chose you to be his chief thinker. Tang Yi took three steps forward and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Yuan Hong leaned over and played with Xiaoqiang's head, and said indifferently: "Where, everything is floating clouds." ”

"Can you tell me why?" Tang Yi bowed his waist and kept blinking his little eyes that were extremely confused.

Yuan Hong straightened up and said eloquently: "Geng Qiang is not seen, there are only four possibilities. One, killed, two, eaten, three, stolen, four, broke free from the chains and ran away. If he had been killed on the spot, there would have been blood stains, but there was no presence at the scene, which is ruled out in the first place. As for being eaten, it is also impossible. Even if it is a legendary beast like the giant python and giant crocodile, if Geng Qiang is swallowed whole, the chains left behind should be relatively intact, and it is unlikely to be broken from the root. ”

After glancing at the shed of beasts again, Yuan Hong continued: "The most important thing is that if there are fierce beasts or thieves invading, what we see afterwards should not only be the turbulent lion and tiger beasts, but also the cows, horses, mules and donkeys should be just as frightened. We can rule out the first three possibilities accordingly. ”

After Yuan Hong's explanation, Tang Yichang nodded knowingly, and continued to ask: "Since it escaped with an iron heart, how do you know that it will come back?"

"Wrong, it didn't plan to escape," Seeing that Tang Yichang's eyes were doubly confused, Yuan Hong licked his dry upper lip with his tongue and continued: "I have carefully checked, and there are deep abrasion marks on the tethers of those lion and tiger beasts, including the one that ties Gengqiang, and it can be seen that those stone pillars have only been erected for a few days, am I not wrong?"

Tang Yichang nodded again and again: "That's right, those stone pillars were newly built by my subordinates three days ago, and in order to prevent the beasts from knocking down the pillars, I also specially asked my subordinates to strengthen them with dragon nails - listening to you say this, it's strange, why did those lion and tiger beasts desperately break free at the same time and make grinding marks?"

Seeing that Chief Tang had finally opened his mind, Yuan Hong exhaled lightly: "The lion and tiger beasts have all been caused to riot, while the other livestock are at peace, which can only show that the lion and tiger beasts have been lured by their own kind. It is currently early summer, and for ligers, the estrus period has not yet passed, and they will naturally try desperately to break free when they are lured by their female kind. It's just that Geng Qiang's body is bigger and his strength is greater, and only he managed to break free. ”

Tang Yichang blinked: "Why does it want to come back?"

Yuan Hong immediately said: "Because of nature! Both humans and animals have a lazy nature of being happy and forgetting their worries. When I first entered the station, I noticed that the food you gave to the livestock was so good, and you never flogged it, and even the pen was a high-end existence. Staying in such a comfortable environment, I am afraid that even the captive people will not leave. ”

explained like this, but in fact, Yuan Hong was also expounding another answer in his heart, that is, Geng Qiang seemed to have a heart with him. Its reaction when it returned proved that it had regarded Yuan Hong as its master.

Back in the guest room, Yuan Hong soaked his feet in hot water, and at the same time carefully flipped through a few pages of the red book that recorded Lingmeng in detail. The book provides an overview of how thunder and lightning are generated, mentions the power and nature of lightning energy, and introduces the difference and intrinsic connection between dream energy and lightning energy. According to the intrinsic connection between the two, the lightning spirit dream technique realizes the transformation of energy and energy.

I don't know how long it took, Yuan Hong, who was intoxicated with the sea of books, actually read hundreds of pages of thunder cheats in one go. Except for a few obscure sentences in the book, Yuan Hong has basically firmly grasped them.

In order to turn his theoretical understanding into practical skills for his own use, Yuan Hong carried the red book and chose a vacant lot in the wilderness. Then he held the red book in one hand, and with the other hand, he made alternate stretching and sometimes swiping movements according to the illustrations in the book. After only half an hour, the action was impressive, and the thunder and lightning energy released actually knocked down a big tree with a diameter of two feet, and not only that, but the attached thunder fire also burned the green tree to black!

After a burst of joy, Yuan Hong tried again ten times, but only succeeded five times. Although it was not 100% successful, Yuan Hong still felt that he had gained a lot. Since then, he has added a practical move to ward off the enemy.

Yuan Hong said to himself while practicing his moves again: If Yun'er knew that I had learned the primary thunder spirit technique so quickly, she would definitely be even happier than me. Hey, if I had learned it earlier, I might have the confidence to take her out with me. It's only been half a day, but I miss her very, very much.

After rehearsing over and over again, Yuan Hong suddenly felt hungry and tired. Looking up at the sky, I saw that the bright moon had risen into the sky, and it was obvious that it was past time. In order to get up early the next day and hurry, he hurried back to the post station. After asking for two steamed buns from the mole, he choked, and seeing that he was no longer plagued by hunger, he took a hot bath and blew the lamp to sleep.

The next day, Yuan Hong got up early in the morning. After a hurried breakfast, he asked the mole to settle the bill. The long-haired mole pretended to be embarrassed to take it, and when he saw that Yuan Hong insisted on giving it, he raised a finger. Yuan Hong comprehended, and immediately took out a tael of silver from his pocket and handed it to him.

At this moment, the post chief rushed back from outside and learned that the long-haired mole had received the silver from the distinguished guest Yuan Hong, and immediately became angry and taught him a hard lesson.

Although Yuan Hong laughed secretly, he still insisted on not taking advantage of this small advantage. After a few back and forths with Tang Yichang, he chose a compromise plan - pay at a five-fold discount, so that at least the post station will not lose money, after all, he knows in his heart that for his own fake tolerance, the post station will not be able to report the public account.

Seeing that Tang Yichang didn't push back again, Yuan Hong cut off half of the silver ingot with a blade, and checked it with his hand, and after determining that the target number was much different from half a tael, he paid and left.

He left the post station a hundred feet away just now, and suddenly saw a girl in yellow lying in the middle of the official road. Her face was yellow, her breathing was weak, and the corners of her mouth were bloodshot, but fortunately, her clothes showed no signs of tearing.

Just as Yuan Hong was about to help her up, the long-haired mole pinched Xiao Man's waist and stepped forward. He warned Yuan Hong that the girl in yellow was not a porcelain toucher, so she must not be helped.

Yuan Hong inherited Ma Haohao's memory, and naturally knew how to deal with it. It is precisely because of the boldness of the artist that he does not have to worry about the possibility of a woman touching porcelain.

Regardless of the long-haired mole's repeated words of dissuasion, Yuan Hong decisively helped the woman in yellow to her feet, and gently wiped the dirt on her face and the bloodshot on the corners of her mouth with a dry cloth.

Suddenly, the woman opened her eyes and met Yuan Hong's eyes.

A pair of charming fox eyes, overflowing with 10,000 points of red. Yuan Hong had never seen such big eyes that were so seductive, and the charm in those eyes, flowing and radiant, was so similar to Liang Yun'er and Lu Bingbing!

"Take me back to see my brother, Shanshan is grateful, ......" Before she finished speaking, the charming and charming big-eyed girl fainted again.

When I opened my eyes, I found that there was a young man in front of me who was not deeply involved in the world, and then he pretended to faint. Hey, if you don't listen to me, there will be bitter fruit to eat now. The long-haired mole straightened Xiaoman's waist, as if he was full of confidence and pride in his judgment.

"Can you kid not affect my thinking about things, if you don't shut up, I'll cut out your tongue!"

Yuan Hong immediately got up and angrily kicked the chattering long-haired mole to the side. Seeing that the mole was no longer nagging, he picked up the woman and planned to send her into the guest room.

"Wait, put her down!"

At this moment, there was a loud cheer not far away......
