The attribute of koi is a mysterious and mysterious concept.

It may only work for one person or type of person, or it may bring good luck to all.

However, people with this attribute will not have the words "I am a koi" on their heads, and it is difficult to directly determine whether it really exists.

As for how to judge his koi, Xu Ran has a simple and crude way of judging, that is, whether he can obtain the highest skills that he can currently gather from the other party.

This set of judgment methods has been tried and tested in the past.

When he was still in Qingzhou City, Xu Ran's hair had just been promoted from D-level to C-level, and the highest skill he could obtain changed from one-star to two-star, and Liu Gu, who had successively obtained two-star skills at that time, became his first koi.

By the time he arrived in Cloud City, Xu Ran's hair had been upgraded to B-level, and the highest skill that could be obtained had become a three-star skill, and it was also through the same way that he discovered the koi attribute of the Qin family's sisters and brothers.

It's a pity that later in Demon Wood City, Xu Ran failed to meet such a person.

And now, in Minghui City, the situation seems to have changed a little.

Qiu Yue, a koi girl I met the day before yesterday, is just an elite-level beast master.

She doesn't have a royal race pet beast, and she can't get a three-star skill from her pet beast through hair, so her koi attribute has another way to manifest it.

Gain two two-star skills at once.

Just today, Xu Ran met a guest of the Beast Master who had received four three-star skills one after another, but the other party was not a koi, and there was no purple in ten rows.

In addition, the blue-eyed Razer that has just been washed and cared for has also gained three-star skills...

Xu Ran stood still, raised his head slightly, and looked at the ceiling.

So is there a possibility...

It's not the two guests in front of you who have koi attributes, but this building?

"Boss Xu, the money is paid, let's go!" Zhang Peng's voice brought Xu Ran back to his senses.

Looking at Du Zhou and Zhang Peng, who were already standing at the door of the store, with a new look of pet beasts, and couldn't wait to wander around the street, Xu Ran nodded, "Go slowly." ”

When the two left, Xu Ran returned to the counter and tapped the counter lightly with his fingers, with an expectant expression on his face.

He wanted to see how the next guest would perform.

And his wait did not last long.

Maybe Du Zhou and Zhang Peng's pet beast was too eye-catching, and it didn't take a few minutes for someone to come over, "Boss, did you wash and care for that very big thunder snake pet beast just now?" ”

"It's me." Xu Ran stood up and looked at the comer.

It was a short-haired female beast master with soft eyebrows and a bit of fierceness, and behind her, there was a slender cherry pink snake pet beast.

Compared with the blue-eyed thunder snake with a body length of nearly thirty meters, the pet beast in front of him is much smaller, no more than ten meters long, and its body is much more obviously slender.

Combined with the question she asked when she entered the door, Xu Ran had already guessed her intention.

"You want to wash your pet beast?"

"Uh-huh." The short-haired woman nodded, "What price?" ”

"The price card is over there."

"I'll see..."Following Xu Ran's guidance, the short-haired woman quickly saw the price card hanging on the other side of the wall, "Large pet beast 66,666 yuan once?" ”

She frowned slightly, obviously feeling a little expensive, but thinking of the amazement she was when she saw that gray-eyed razer, she was a little eager to try.

"Hiss~"

The snake pet beast behind her hissed, as if to remind her beastmaster of something.

The short-haired woman quickly looked up, followed the gaze of the pet beast, and soon saw the pennant hanging high on the wall.

"Washing the Holy Hand?" There was obviously a little more consternation in the eyes of the short-haired woman.

In the case of the Holy Hand of Baptism, such a price does not seem unacceptable.

Taking a deep breath, she finally made her decision.

"Please give my Sakura a good look."

"No problem." Xu Ran nodded with a smile and turned on the system appraisal at the same time.

This cherry pink snake, this is the first time he has seen it.

It's to see what kind of race it is.

[Race name: Yingluo Flower Snake.]

Attribute: Super system

Growth Level: Commander Rank

Body size: Large

Washing and care needs: ★★ ☆☆☆

Evaluation: Completely different from the stereotype of cold and ferocious, this is a snake pet beast known for its cleverness, cuteness and good looks, and expects the host to develop its unknown side with dexterous hands! 】

Exploitation... What the heck.

The corners of Xu Ran's mouth twitched slightly, and then looked at the pet beast of the short-haired woman.

The Flower Snake...

As described in the systematic identification, this snake pet beast is completely different from Fang Cai's gray-eyed razer, and its slender body gives it a distinctive softness, and its cherry pink scales make its appearance rise to a higher level.

Through perception, Xu Ran could feel that although the Yingluo Flower Snake was only a leader rank, it was also the existence of the king race.

Just in time, you can use it to test your guess.

"Please follow me." Xu Ran made a "please" gesture, and then took the lead in entering the washing room.

"Sakura-chan, let's go." The short-haired woman spoke softly, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes, and followed closely with a dazzling flower snake.

When the door of the bathroom closed again, the three little ones in the store looked at each other and couldn't help but talk to each other.

"Cha~" (the same super system as Twelve~)

Cancan held his head on one paw and spoke with interest.

"Meow~" (It's far worse than twelve.) ）

Ziyun shook his head indifferently.

When it sees the round twelve, it will have the idea of grabbing and playing, and when it sees this long guy, it has no interest in it.

Thinking of Twelve, Ziyun's claws couldn't help but move again.

Counting the time, it has been more than half a month since the twelve.

But it always felt as if it had been separated for a long time.

"Sigh~" (We'll bring it back.) ）

As if seeing Ziyun's thoughts, Xingchen slowly opened his eyes and hissed.

"Meow~" (That's a must.) ）

Ziyun's claw palm arched slightly, and the sharp claw blade popped out of the meat pad, and his eyes were a little sharper.

It's fast, it's fast.

When it obtains the Extinction Thunderbolt and meets the other evolutionary conditions, it will immediately proceed to a second evolution.

If it succeeds in evolution, it will definitely take back its little pillow!

At the same time as the three little ones communicated, a strange hissing sound began to faintly come from the washing room, and when they heard the sound, the three little ones showed a look of watching a good show at the same time.

The power of the fourth-order contract can allow the beast master and the pet beast to temporarily share their senses.

Therefore, even if they do not enter the washing room, they can watch the whole washing process through Xu Ran's eyes.

Seeing the slender and delicate Yingluo Flower Snake writhing irrepressibly in Xu Ran's hands, the expressions of the three little ones became a little more weird.

"Meow~" (Don't look at it.) ）

Ziyun raised his claws and slapped Cancan on the side.

Do you understand what it means to be inappropriate for young animals?

Cancan, who was slapped inexplicably, cut off the sharing with a look of grievance.

See what's wrong?

Young beasts also need to grow!

Do you know how much psychological shadow this slap has on a three-month-old baby beast with a body length of 300 meters!

——

"Welcome to the next time~"

Standing outside the store, Xu Ran smiled and said goodbye to the short-haired woman who left satisfied.

Behind her, the appearance of the flower snake has changed drastically from when it came.

Each of its thin, translucent scales has been meticulously polished and polished, shining brightly and lustresly in the sun, and the gradient of cherry pink seems to be bright and clear, as if petals have fallen on its body.

It was originally very good-looking, but after walking around in Xu Ran's hands, it already had a bit of magic to charm sentient beings.

Well... It just so happens that the super energy department is already good at illusion and charm type skills, so it complements each other.

"Boss Xu, your washing and care skills are really good." The short-haired woman was suspicious when she didn't come back, and after some washing, she has become a loyal fan of Xu Ran, "I will recommend your store with my friends!" ”

"Thank you very much." Xu Ran smiled and beckoned to the short-haired woman, and her already excellent mood suddenly became better.

When the woman's figure disappeared from sight, Xu Ran's gaze swept over the system panel.

On the system panel, there is a brand new skill.

Confusing ★★★ Brand (Not Teachable)

This new skill comes from Fang Cai's Yingluo Flower Snake.

It is able to silently plant the imprint of control on the opponent, triggering it when needed, and briefly controlling the opponent's actions.

The control time is determined by the difference in strength between the two sides, and after one effect, the brand automatically disappears.

Even among the elusive super skills, this skill can be regarded as quite rare and special.

The five three-star skills obtained earlier were all broken down into skill fragments by Xu Ran, including the thunder skill obtained from the Cangyan Thunderser, because it was not suitable for Ziyun.

However, this skill can be kept for later use by Twelve.

And the reason why Xu Ran was in a good mood was not only because he had obtained a good new skill, but also because he had obtained a three-star skill again, which almost verified the guess in his heart.

Who says only humans can have koi attributes?

Xu Ran stood in the storefront, and came casually for a ten-company, and then his expression fell.

Well... It's ten times without purple again.

It seems that this speculation needs to be further verified.

"Is it the foster care store of Mr. Xu Ran, the 'Holy Hand of Washing'?"

"Yes, this is it." Listening to the sound of inquiry coming from outside the store, Xu Ran quickly turned around and instantly changed into a warm smile.

"Welcome~Come!"

——

"What? You say the Spark foster care store has already opened? ”

Just finished cleaning and caring for a super-large pet beast, Du Zian heard the news from an assistant who came in a hurry before he had time to relieve his body's fatigue.

"That's right, Qi'an." The assistant's expression was a little dignified and serious, "This is a very strong opponent, and we were careless at yesterday's washing and care exhibition, so that he won the title of 'Holy Hand of Washing'." ”

"His foster care shop is now open and will inevitably develop in a short period of time with the help of the exposure of the title."

"And his store is located in Shuguang Building 1, that building we wanted to buy a branch as a Baihua foster care store, the other party resolutely disagreed, and now it is cheaper for that kid."

"In this way, this Spark Foster Care Shop is only afraid that it will threaten the business of our Baihua Foster Shop, or we..." The assistant lowered his voice slightly, looked at Du Zi'an, and made a decapitation motion.

"The storefront is in Dawning One, right?" Extracting the information he wanted from his assistant's tirade, Du Zi'an turned his head to look at the appointment form posted outside the door of the washing room, and there was a hint of regret on his face.

As the chief nurse of Baihua Foster Care Shop, his cleaning and care is by appointment, and he did not receive orders for two consecutive days because he participated in the cleaning and care exhibition, and today's cleaning and care appointments have already been full.

He originally wanted to go to the Xinghuo foster care store as soon as possible to officially visit the caregiver named Xu Ran, but unfortunately he didn't have time today.

"It's not full tomorrow, so give me an hour." With a few words, Duzian walked back to the washing room, ready to wash and care for the next pet beast.

"That's right." Before he was about to step into the nursing room, Du Qi'an suddenly thought of something, and paused to look at his assistant, "Yesterday's announcement by the Beast Master Association didn't seem to mention the location of the Spark Foster Care Shop, right?" ”

"It doesn't seem to be..."

The assistant subconsciously spoke, and then saw Du Zian take out his mobile phone and make a call.

"Hello, is this the association's citizen advice hotline? I would like to remind the association that the notice you sent out yesterday for the Cleaning and Care Exhibition omitted the relevant content of the foster care store where the 'Washing and Care Hands' is located. ”

"yes, okay."

"Qi An, what are you doing?" It wasn't until Du Zi'an quickly hung up the phone that the assistant reacted suddenly, widening his eyes and shouting, "The association has no announcement, isn't it a good thing?" ”

"If not, when the Spark foster care store becomes bigger and stronger, then we will have a hundred flowers..."

Seeing Duzian stretch out a finger pointing at him, the assistant's voice became lower and lower, and finally quieted down.

"You, watch less in the future." Du Zian looked at his assistant who had been with him for a while and frowned slightly.

"Don't act like a villain all day."

——

Time flies by in the hot business.

In a blink of an eye, the first day of operation of Minghui City Spark Foster Care Store came to an end.

Compared with the first day of business of the past three branches, the branch of Minghui City can be called the beginning of Tianhu, receiving more than a dozen customers on the first day.

Although they all came for washing and care, and did not try other businesses, for Xu Ran, this was enough.

In addition, through a day's attempts, Xu Ran also gradually perfected his guess.

As he thought, this Shuguang No. 1 building does have its own koi attributes.

However, this koi fish attribute is only half.

Today's pet beasts, as long as the race is the king race, only nine out of ten can obtain three-star skills through the hair, this probability far exceeds the probability that the B-level hairy should have, and it is the blessing of good luck brought by the first building of Dawn.

But this good luck is limited to the skills that are gained by the hair.

Xu Ran wants to use it to produce good things in ten consecutive years, but he can't even think about it.

"Anyway, that's good news."

Sitting on the bed in the living area of the new store at night, Xu Ran told the three little ones about his discovery, and said with a smile, "Getting more three-star skills means that the number of skill fragments will increase a lot next time resources are allocated." ”

"Perhaps... You may be able to exchange it for a four-star skill directly. Speaking of this, the smile on Xu Ran's face became a little thicker.

Four-star skills can also be exchanged directly with fragments.

Of course, its demand for fragments is far from being comparable to one, two, and three-star skills.

A four-star skill requires 2,000 skill shards, which is ten times more than a three-star skill.

In a half-month resource allocation cycle, Xu Ran can only obtain more than 1,000 skill fragments now, but in the future, the income from skill fragments will inevitably increase significantly.

The day of redeeming four-star skills is not far off.

"Cha~" (yes!) I'm going to change! ）

Cancan shouted excitedly, looking forward to the four-star skills that could be exchanged.

"Ahem, don't get excited." Looking at Cancan's eager look, Xu Ran coughed lightly in embarrassment, "The monarch race can't directly teach four-star skills, and it can't be exchanged. ”

"Do you remember the consequences of raising Longwei to three stars before you evolved into a royal race?"

Hearing this, a trace of fear instantly appeared in Cancan's eyes.

Long Wei is not a natural skill, but a teaching skill, so the forced fusion of the star ascension at that time was counterproductive, and that kind of pain is still fresh in Cancan's memory.

"It's already so hard to teach first and then rise to star, and it's simply impossible to directly teach skills that transcend racial boundaries." Xu Ran patted Cancan's head, "So, if you want to exchange for four-star skills, you need to be advanced into the emperor race." ”

"Meow~" (Then I can store more skill fragments and change them later!) ）

Ziyun raised her paw excitedly.

Among the ranks, it is undoubtedly the closest to the Imperial Race.

As long as you evolve into the Emperor race, you can exchange for new four-star skills and become stronger!

Evolution Power +1!

The stars on the side did not speak, but there was also a look of intention in their eyes.

Can you redeem a four-star skill...

It wants to try it too!

"Speaking of..."As if thinking of something, Xu Ran suddenly spoke, "Over there in Luolei Valley, we need to find a way to be able to observe it at any time when we need it." ”

"It's best to be able to react as soon as there are abnormal signs, and be ready to fight for the extermination thunder."

"So..."Xu Ran's gaze looked at the three little ones, "Starting tomorrow, we will go out of the city once a day to observe the situation in Luolei Valley and familiarize ourselves with the surrounding environment." ”

"When the store is well-known enough to summon the three clerks, we will stay in the beast domain outside the city for a longer time, maybe only once in a few days."

Hearing this, the expressions of the three little ones became serious at the same time.

Although when they came from the Demon Wood Domain, they crossed the Beast Domain, but this did not mean that the Beast Domain was not dangerous.

Here, it's Beast Domain No. 47.

There is no Beast Emperor near Minghui City, but the number of races commanded by the Beast King cannot be counted on two hands!

Therefore, every time you go out of the city, you must be extremely vigilant and be careful.

After saying this, Xu Ran sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and soon entered a deep meditation state as before, using the double superposition of the meditation acceleration card to practice against time.

The three little ones looked at each other, and in silence, with months of tacit understanding, they understood each other's meaning.

"About? Let's go to training together. ”

"Let's go, take me one!"

——

While the three little ones were in full swing to start their respective training, in a conference room within the Minghui City Beastmaster Association, a discussion related to the Starfire foster care store was underway.

"I said Xiao Li, if I'm not mistaken, you wrote last night's announcement." A small leader in charge of publicity in the association frowned and looked at a young woman in front of him, "Is there something missing?" ”

"Missing something? Nope! The clerk in charge of editing the manuscript pushed his glasses, his face full of confusion.

"Today, there was feedback from the citizen hotline, and some citizens reminded us that yesterday's announcement of the washing and care exhibition omitted the relevant information of the foster care store where the 'washing and care holy hand' is located."

The little leader's voice paused slightly, "I remember that every previous announcement of the 'Holy Hand of Cleansing' would be accompanied by the promotion of the foster care store where the other party is located, and inform everyone of the store and the specific location of the foster care store. ”

"This time, why not?"

"So that's it." The clerk was stunned, and then said confidently, "Because Mr. Xu Ran doesn't have a foster care store!" ”

"Although he used 'Spark Foster Care Shop' as the name of his care room at the Laundry Expo, he actually did not work in any foster care store in Minghui City, and Xinghuo Foster Care Store was not registered in our Minghui City."

"So when I was writing, I didn't add the introduction of the other party's cleaning shop."

"Look at this, then." The little leader took out a document and handed it to the clerk.

"This is—" The clerk took the information, flipped through a few pages, and then couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Impossible! When pigs fly! ”

"When I checked yesterday, I was sure that there was absolutely no registration information and any store address of the Spark foster care store!"

"Don't get excited." The little leader pressed his palm down with his palm down, signaling the clerk to calm down, "Look at the registration time." ”

"Uh... Registered last night? The clerk glanced at the registration time in the corner and was stunned.

It was shortly after she sent the manuscript.

"I don't blame you." The little leader spoke slowly, "It's true that you don't have responsibility for this matter, but what is missing needs to be filled." ”

"Then I... Altering the original manuscript? The clerk tentatively spoke.

"I'm afraid it won't work." The little leader shook his head, "That manuscript has a high number of views, and now after revision, I won't read it again." ”

"What do you mean?" The clerk looked at the little leader.

"Write another supplementary announcement and send it out separately." The little leader knocked on the table, "Work hard, get it done tonight." ”

"Okay." The clerk nodded helplessly, and then quickly walked out of the conference room.

When the clerk walked out, the majesty on the little leader's face dissipated, and he made a quick call, with a little more respect on his face.

"Vice President Liu, it's me, Xiao Ding."

"The Mr. Xu Ran you gave me special care..."

——

Early the next morning, when Xu Ran woke up from deep meditation, he turned his head and saw three little ones sleeping next to each other, looking extremely tired.

After being slightly stunned, his face couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"You guys went to training again at night?" He casually touched the purple cloud closest to him and spoke softly.

Ziyun didn't respond, but the sound of "purring" became a little heavier, and Xingchen and Cancan didn't react at all.

"Then you go to sleep." Seeing that the three little ones were like this, Xu Ran was reluctant to wake them up, and after hurriedly washing and cleaning up, he went to the store alone to prepare for a new day's business.

"Cha~"

When Xu Ran's figure disappeared into the room, Cancan slammed his mouth, making a muffled sound in his dream, and its paws subconsciously probed in the direction where Xu Ran was sitting cross-legged while meditating.

After touching a cloud of air, its eyelids moved slightly, as if it wanted to open its eyes to see where Xu Ran was.

But in the end, exhaustion and sleepiness overcame everything, and the bright eyelids did not open, and the movement disappeared, only the snoring sounded again.

On the other side, when he came to the store, Xu Ran, who was about to start business, just opened the door of the store and ushered in a big surprise.

Outside the store, there was a crowd of people queuing.

"What are you?" Looking at many familiar faces in the crowd, Xu Ran couldn't help but ask curiously.

Many of the people in the team were guests who had been received at the laundry exhibition before.

In just two or three days, their pet beasts should not be ready to wash again, right?

Why are all the people here today?

"Hehe, Boss Xu, there is no movement in your opening of a shop, if it weren't for the announcement of the association, we wouldn't know about it." One of the familiar faces smiled and spoke loudly.

"Yes, yes, Boss Xu, you're too low-key."

"I passed by here yesterday, but I really didn't notice that Dawning One has a new owner."

“…”

Listening to the exchange of words between these guests, Xu Ran thoughtfully took out his mobile phone and opened the official website of the Beast Master Association.

Soon, he understood what was going on.

The night before yesterday, the Beast Master Association issued an announcement informing all Beast Masters that the title of "Washing and Protecting the Holy Hand" had a new ownership.

But such announcements are actually not complete.

In accordance with the past practice, the name and specific address of the foster care store where the "Holy Hand of Washing" is located will also be publicized.

At that time, Xu Ran did not have a foster care store, so this part of the content was ignored.

Under normal circumstances, this would probably end there.

But on the contrary, Xu Ran had his own foster care store that night, and it officially opened on the second day.

After some discussion within the association, it was finally decided last night to issue an additional notice on the basis of the original notice to explain the matter.

This time, it's amazing.

A single notice has attracted more attention to the location of the Spark Foster Care Store, especially since it is still located in a place like Shuguang Building 1, which is even more surprising.

Therefore, early this morning, those old customers who had experienced Xu Ran's washing and care at the washing and care exhibition before and more new customers who came because of the words "washing and caring holy hand" appeared at the door of the foster care store.

This is the situation that after opening the storefront, it will be a mess.

"I see." Xu Ran nodded, touched his chin, and looked in the direction of the Minghui City Beast Master Association.

"That's really thanks to the association."
