Chapter 309: Du Qi'an's Visit, a Rare Washing Object!
"Welcome to the next time~"
With the help of the association, the business on the second day of opening was far more popular than Xu Ran imagined.
Seeing off another guest who left satisfied, Rao was already a little tired with Xu Ran's physical fitness.
Looking at the long queue outside the store, he knew it was time to summon the stars.
After a while, a clear and passionate hissing sound appeared in the storefront.
Xingchen, who had already slept enough and regained his spirit, immediately linked Xu Ran with the chain of fate, and channeled his own strength to him to eliminate his fatigue.
"Good work." Xu Ran smiled and touched its head, "Business is so good today, I may need you to make a few moves." β
"Sigh~" (No problem!) οΌ
The stars hissed, shaking their heads and standing in the space next to the counter.
Ziyun and Cancan, who were awakened by the summoning movement, also quickly appeared in the storefront, watching with interest as Xu Ran received the next guest.
Looking at the long queue outside the store, the three little ones couldn't help but talk to each other.
"Meow?" (Why is business so good today?) οΌ
"Cha~" (I don't know!) οΌ
"Sigh~" (Anyway, good business is a good thing.) οΌ
"Meow!" (Yes, this will allow you to summon clerks to share Xu Ran's work more quickly!) οΌ
During the exchange of words between the three little ones, Xu Ran efficiently completed the customer's cleaning task, and after sending him out of the store, he motioned for the next guest to come in.
Soon, a young figure entered the storefront.
It was a handsome man, looking no more than in his early twenties, with a habitual smile on his face, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
The most attractive thing is his hands.
The man's hands are white and smooth, even the hand lines are extremely shallow, and the bones are distinct and slender, which looks very eye-catching.
"Hello, what pet beast do you need to wash?" Xu Ran couldn't help but look at the other party a few more times, and then asked casually.
"My name is Duzian." The man smiled and suddenly reported to himself.
"Huh?" Xu Ran was slightly stunned, and then re-examined the other party.
Of course, he will not forget that at the pet animal washing and care exhibition, a nurse named Du Qi'an from Baihua Foster Care Store took the initiative to help him drain the traffic, allowing him to get rid of the embarrassing situation of no customers at the beginning.
"Ms. Du Huayan is a lady..."
"That's my sister." Duzian smiled, a little more proud on his face.
Obviously, he has a deep admiration for his sister, who has more advanced cleaning and care skills.
"Sure enough." Xu Ran showed a sudden smile, took his hand enthusiastically and shook it, "I really appreciate your help at the washing and care exhibition." β
"Little things." Du Qi'an shook his head slightly, "In the letter, my sister mentioned your washing and care techniques, and she thinks that your washing and care techniques are the most amazing she has ever seen. β
"Although I have not seen it with my own eyes, I trust her judgment that a washer like you should not be buried in a remote location."
"And, I believe, without this little help from me, the title of 'Holy Hand of Baptism' would still be yours."
As he spoke, Du Zian glanced up at the pennant on the wall, and his eyes were a little more yearning, "The flag is very good, and I will take it away with a better performance in three years." β
"Hahaha, okay." Xu Ran laughed, and after a short exchange, he recognized a lot more with the nurse in front of him who was younger than himself, "I think your intention today should be more than just to chat with me, right?" β
"It's true that I deliberately set aside an hour for my bathroom appointment, but I didn't come to chat." Duzian nodded in agreement, "If I can, I'd like to be able to observe you as you wash and treat the other guests." β
"Don't worry, I'll keep it quiet and won't disturb your business."
"Of course, there is no problem." Xu Ran nodded without hesitation, "With the permission of the guests, we can also have some technical exchanges." β
"That's great." Duzian's eyes lit up.
Everyone's washing and care method has its key points.
Just by looking at it with the naked eye, even if Du Zian already has a very good washing and care technique, it is difficult to fully understand the key.
But with communication, it's different.
"Then I'm going to call the next guest first?"
"Please."
Du Qi'an made a gesture of "please", retreated to the corner of the storefront, smiled friendly at the three little ones who were curiously looking around, and then looked out of the store.
Soon, Xu Ran led a sturdy man in.
"This gentleman, who is the pet beast you want to wash?" Xu Ran smiled politely and asked.
"It's it." The six-pointed starlight array flickered behind the big man, and soon, a bird pet beast with a body burning with crimson flames around it, a body like black, and two heads let out a sharp cry and flew out of the wind.
With its appearance, the temperature in the store began to rise rapidly.
[Race name: Shuangshou Yanwu.]
Attribute: Fire
Growth Rank: General Rank
Body type: Medium
Washing and care needs: β β β β β
Evaluation: Two special individuals with different heads may get double the pleasure value for washing and caring for them! γ
After glancing at the rare and serious evaluation of the system, the smile on Xu Ran's face suddenly became rich.
If you're going to say that, then I'm going to have to do it.
Among the transcendent beings, individuals with multiple consciousnesses are relatively rare, Xu Ran has heard of several, but has never washed and cared for them.
This is the first time I have experienced this.
Behind Xu Ran, Du Zi'an, who remained silent, also had a little more surprise on his face.
At the same time, he also recognized the Shuangshou Yanwu.
However, compared to Xu Ran, he was not completely ignorant of this double-headed Yanwu.
Because the other party happened to have washed and cared for him once.
There is a certain difference between this double-headed Yanwu and the normal double-headed Yanwu.
Normally, although Shuangshou Yanwu has two different consciousnesses, these two consciousnesses are like twin brothers, they are very compatible with each other, and they cooperate very tacitly, and there are few internal conflicts and contradictions.
But the two consciousnesses often contradict each other, and there is a lack of tacit understanding between them.
And such anomalies can also have an impact on washing.
The way one consciousness likes to wash and care is not necessarily the one that another consciousness likes.
Vice versa.
I still remember that when I washed and cared for this Shuangshou Yanwu, Du Qi'an could be said to have spent a lot of effort, and in the end, my sister stepped in to help, so that the washing and care was successfully completed.
Although this was a year ago, when he was not proficient in learning and was far inferior to now, until now, Du Zian is still a little worried about this matter.
Glancing at Xu Ran, who was about to take over the work of this double-headed Yan Wu, Du Qi'an hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but speak, "That... The two consciousnesses of this two-headed flame... There may be some conflicts. β
Xu Ran glanced at Du Qi'an in surprise, and then carefully looked at the double-headed Yan Wulai.
Under Duzian's reminder, he soon discovered that the two heads, bathed in the firelight, did have some hostility towards each other.
Can you still not get along with each other by sharing a body?
Xu Ran's expression was a little more strange.
"It turns out that Brother Du is also here." Hearing Du Qi'an's voice, Dahan realized that there was a third person in the store.
He was not angry about Du Qi'an talking about his pet beast, he just smiled, "Since Brother Du has already mentioned it, I won't hide it." β
"It's true that my Shuangshou Yanwu had some small accidents because of the evolution process, which caused the two consciousnesses to have a poor tacit understanding with each other, and there were often contradictions..."
Speaking of this, Dahan is also a little more helpless, "Often when washing, one of the consciousness feels comfortable, and the other consciousness will be a little restless." β
"As a result, it often ends in the middle of the treatment, and I'm almost blacked out by the caregivers." Dahan spread his hands, "I heard that you are the new 'Holy Hand of Cleansing', so I brought them to try my luck." β
"Understood." Xu Ran threw a grateful look at Du Qi'an.
If Du Zian didn't remind him, he was afraid that this guest would not be honest about it.
In this way, it will undoubtedly increase a lot of difficulty to wash and protect this double-headed Yan Wu.
But... Sounds like a lot of fun.
"This gentleman, that's right." Xu Ran spoke slowly, "Du Zi'an and I are having a washing and care exchange, I don't know if you mind us using your pet beast as a case of washing and care communication?" β
"Thisβ" The big man hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Okay." β
At first, he didn't take the initiative to explain the problem of his pet beast, in the final analysis, it was his fault.
But Dahan didn't mean to make things difficult for Xu Ran, but he was worried that after saying it, Xu Ran refused to wash and protect his pet beast.
With a little apology in his heart, it was naturally difficult for him to refuse Xu Ran's request.
Moreover, Du Qi'an had washed and protected Shuangshou Yanwu before, and with him, Xu Ran's effect on washing and protecting his pet beasts might become better.
"Thank you for your generosity." Du Zi'an smiled brightly and nodded to the big man.
There is no doubt that such a rare case of washing and care has extremely high communication value.
"Come with me." After discussing, Xu Ran beckoned to Shuangshou Yanwu and motioned for it to follow him into the washing room.
"Phew-"
One of the heads of the two heads of Yanwu showed a look of excitement and expectation, and quickly poked in the direction of Xu Ran, as if he wanted to follow Xu Ran into the washing room.
However, the other head twisted in the direction of the bathroom room at this moment, looking a little reluctant, as if he was not interested in washing.
Without the cooperation of his companions, the flying movements of the two heads of Yanwu suddenly became a little stiffer and unnatural.
Seeing that his companion was unwilling to cooperate with him, the first head suddenly became angry, and it glared at the second head fiercely, and let out a series of high-pitched cries, which sounded like swearing.
And the second head, who is not a bully, responds with the same sharp cry.
Before they even entered the washing room, the two guys had already had a conflict again.
"Stop arguing, go to the bathroom."
In the end, it was the big man who gave a low shout, so that the two heads of the two heads of Yanwu temporarily gave up the dispute, and the second head was no longer stubborn, and honestly cooperated with the first head and flew to the washing room.
Xu Ran, who was standing at the door of the washing room, watched this scene, and suddenly became a little unconfident about his next washing and care.
This double pleasure value seems to be a bit difficult to earn...
ββ
"Come on, over here."
Under Xu Ran's instructions, Shuangshou Yan Wu Fei landed on the washing table belonging to medium-sized pet beasts.
There is a beast master on the side, and at this moment, it... Oh no, it should be said that they are quite cooperative, and after standing on the washing table, they stopped moving in place, waiting for Xu Ran to wash and care for them.
Sure that there was no problem, Xu Ran nodded slightly, walked to his workbench, and began to prepare for washing and care.
Beside him, there was also Du Zi'an, who had a curious and amazed look on his face.
After entering the washing room of the Starfire foster care shop, his look of amazement never disappeared.
This unique spaciousness made him quickly think of an extremely expensive technology, space expansion technology.
Being able to use such technology in the space expansion of the washing room shows that Xu Ran has invested a lot in the store.
A large investment does not necessarily mean that the technology is good, but at least it can explain the attitude.
And this dazzling array of cleaning equipment and resources, even Du Qi'an can only distinguish some of them, which makes him even more surprised and a little more happy in his heart.
He knew he had come to the right place.
As Xu Ran's movements began, Du Qi'an stopped looking left and right, staring at Xu Ran's hands, paying attention to every resource he used.
"This is the Melting Stone, why join it?" Seeing Xu Ran grinding a knuckle-sized, crystal clear stone into a fine powder and pouring it into the bath, Du Zian asked curiously.
In his impression, the Melting Stone is a resource that helps pet beasts better control their own strength, and it belongs to one of the strengthening resources.
The resources added by washing and care are often maintenance resources.
The gap between the two is still not small.
"Because the melt stone can reconcile the restlessness of the attributes." Seeing Du Qi'an's doubts, Xu Ran did not shy away from it, and explained with a smile, "This is the principle that it helps pet beasts better grasp their strength." β
"And this principle, in some cases, can also be used for washing." Xu Ran pointed to the Shuangshou Yanwu waiting on the washing table, "This Shuangshou Yanwu has a great demand for washing and care, and it is suitable for the most thorough cleaning method." β
"And the biggest problem with the washing method for fire pet beasts is the natural aversion of fire pet beasts to water."
"That's right." Du Qi'an couldn't help but nodded, "When I use the washing method to wash and care for the fire-type pet beast, although I will add fire-based resources, sometimes the pet beast still doesn't like it very much. β
"This is because when the fire power encounters water, it will automatically clash, and adding fire resources to the water is a palliative rather than a cure." Xu Ran shook a box of melt stones in the box on the side, "At this time, you have to use it." β
"And how does the meltstone solve this problem?" Duzian asked curiously.
"Melting stones can not only reconcile the restlessness of attributes, but also reconcile the conflicts between attributes." Xu Ran's hands kept moving, and he said quickly, "This is a method to cure the root cause." β
"Moreover, the two consciousnesses of this double-headed Yanwu conflict with each other, and they are also related to the characteristics of the attributes, which can also be alleviated to a certain extent through the fusion stone."
After standing on the washing table, the knowledge about Shuangshou Yanwu automatically poured into Xu Ran's mind, and he was originally a little unconfident, but he had regained his self-confidence.
The problem of Shuangshou Yanwu may seem serious, but in the final analysis, it is only a minor problem.
At the end of this washing, it is not impossible to solve the root cause directly.
"I see, teachable." Du Qi'an's expression was solemn, and he saluted Xu Ran very seriously.
This knowledge about the melting stone was something he had never understood, and Xu Ran not only did not shy away from letting him learn, but also explained the principle in detail.
This made his admiration for Xu Ran in his heart spontaneous.
My sister is right, this is really a very powerful washer.
"Alright, let's start washing." While the two were talking, Xu Ran had already completed all the preparations before washing, picked up all the things he needed, and walked towards Shuangshou Yanwu.
"I'll help you." Duzian quickly assumed the duties of an assistant.
Soon, the washing and care officially began.
Xu Ran grabbed the handle of the shower head with one hand, and blocked the water sprayed by the shower head with the other hand, allowing the water to wash into the palm of his hand, and then fall down.
Assisting Xu Ran in setting up the various facilities needed for washing and care, Du Qi'an stood quietly aside, observing Xu Ran's movements.
The work that Xu Ran is doing in front of him is to measure the temperature of the water.
Fire pets are more receptive to high temperatures, so the temperature of the bath used to wash them often exceeds 60 degrees.
Don't look at it as just 60 degrees, but at this temperature, ordinary washers will already feel the obvious hot hands, and the difficulty of washing and care will also increase.
But...
Looking at the hot water that had begun to bubble up and Xu Ran's expressionless face, Du Qi'an couldn't help but sigh in admiration in his heart.
Sure enough, the Beast Master has a lot of advantages over ordinary people in all walks of life.
Soon, Xu Ran let go of the hand blocking the shower head, and then turned the shower head to the side of Shuangshou Yanwu, who had been waiting for a long time.
In the face of the bath liquid, the two heads of Shuangshou Yanwu have completely different performances.
The first head was excited, eager to take the initiative to catch up and let the bath wash better its body, which had not been thoroughly cleansed in the past.
The second head was a little reluctant, frozen in place, motionless, with a bit of retreat in its eyes, if it weren't for the beast master staring not far away, and another guy with a common body dragging its feet, it would probably have run away.
Water! The most annoying!
"Wash and care obediently~"
Seeing the resistance of the second head, Xu Ran raised his hand with a smile, held it down with lightning speed, and then sprayed the water from the shower head on the body of the two heads of Yanwu.
"Whoa~"
Accompanied by the clear sound of flowing water, the flames burning around the two heads of Yan Wu quickly became dim under the wash of the bath liquid, faintly revealing the bare body under the flames.
Unlike ordinary birds and pet beasts, the two-headed flame crow has no feathers on its body, and the flames that cover its body are both its means of attack and its means of covering its body.
"Phew-"
The second head of the Shuangshou Yanwu instantly widened his eyes, his face was full of resistance, and he twisted his body, trying to escape from Xu Ran's clutches.
The reason why it hates washing is because the water flow that covers its body will dim the flame that covers its body, revealing its bare body under the flames.
"Wow~"
At the same time, the first head of Shuangshou Yanwu closed slightly, raised slightly, with a hint of comfort and comfort in his eyes, and couldn't help but make a pleasant sound.
It doesn't care about the exposure of its body.
As soon as the bath liquid fell on its body, it felt the warmth and comfort of being tightly wrapped in the bath liquid.
The dirt on the surface of the body is absorbed in the bath and easily carried away, giving it a feeling of relaxation that has never been felt before.
"Don't worry." Seeing the completely different reactions of the two heads, Xu Ran smiled and put his fingers against Shuangshou Yanwu's body, and then began to gently rub them.
The pleasant color in the eyes of the first head was a little more intense, and with Xu Ran's kneading, the bath penetrated into the depths of its body with more force, and a slight tingling sensation followed, like an electric shock, which made it unbearable and nostalgic.
The anger and resistance in the eyes of the second head were a little thicker.
Being seen with that bare body had already made it very uncomfortable, and at this moment, when Xu Ran's hand touched its bare body, it was almost out of anger.
"ε³ - ε³~"
It couldn't help but open its mouth to let out a high-pitched and fierce cry, but it was only halfway through, and it was a little more difficult to suppress the strangeness.
Although there are two consciousnesses, these two consciousnesses use the same body and have the same perception.
Before, the second head subconsciously ignored the comfort brought by washing and care because of the strong resistance in his heart, but as this comfort became stronger and stronger, it finally felt something strange after realizing it.
As if electrocuted, the second head felt that its entire body had become soft, and it was difficult to do so with any force it wanted, and even the cry it let out was accompanied by a heavy wheezing sound.
How so...
In its eyes, there was a little more confusion and confusion.
Things seem to be different as it was imagined.
And Du Qi'an, who was on the side, showed a surprised expression at this moment.
He was close at hand, but he still didn't see how Xu Ran did it.
Just a simple rubbing, so that the original Shuangshou Yanwu was still full of resistance to washing and care consciousness quickly declined?
What kind of magic kneading technique is this?
Surprised, Du Zi'an couldn't help but stare at Xu Ran's hand.
For a long time, he has been called "a man with magic in his hands" by one guest because of his excellent washing and care skills, but at this moment, he suddenly felt that his title should be given to Xu Ran to be reasonable.
Under Du Qi'an's gaze, Xu Ran quickly and thoroughly rubbed the body of the two heads of Yanwu from beginning to end.
The dirt on its bare body under the flames, which could not be washed away by the flowing bath liquid, quickly peeled off from its body under his just right amount of rubbing, and then was washed away by the current.
At the drain of the sink, the bath liquid gathered after washing has taken on a gray-black color.
In the process of kneading, Shuangshou Yanwu's second head experienced a series of complex psychological changes such as resistance, hesitation, struggle, and rottenness, and finally chose to enjoy Xu Ran's kneading without resistance.
As for the first head, it was already getting better, and it shook and let out a strange cry from time to time with Xu Ran's rhythm.
Suddenly, Xu Ran's kneading action stopped.
As if he was flying to the clouds, he suddenly stopped, and the two heads of the two heads of Yanwu looked at Xu Ran together, their eyes full of inquiry and dissatisfaction.
Rarely, they agreed on one thing.
Why don't this humans go on!
"It's time for the next step." Xu Ran explained with a smile, then turned on the shower head, thoroughly rinsed the body of the two heads of the Yanwu, and then took out a special fireproof dry towel to wipe the water traces on his body.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Ran took out a small bucket from the shelf next to him.
The lid of the barrel was lifted, revealing a barrel of oil that shimmered in the light of a light red glow.
"What is this?" Looking at this barrel of somewhat strange oil, Du Zian didn't care about keeping quiet, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"This is a bath oil for fire-type pet beasts."
"Bath oil?" Duzian raised his eyebrows.
He'd heard of bath gels, bath powders, bath sand, and had never heard of bath oil.
Washing and caring is to wash away the oil and dirt on the pet beast, and use oil to wash and care, isn't it more and more oily?
Glancing sideways at Du Qi'an, Xu Ran guessed the confusion in his heart, but he just smiled and didn't explain anything.
He believed that Duzian would understand after reading his next operation.
Feeling the fire attribute energy of the attribute, the two heads of the Shuangshou Yanwu moved towards the bath oil together, sniffed, sniffed, and then looked towards Xu Ran, with a bit of urging in his eyes.
Unlike the previous bath gels, they can feel the pleasant smell from this bath oil.
Washing with this thing, even the second head with a higher resistance to washing and care, can't say anything to refuse.
Take out a small spoon, scoop up a spoonful of bath oil and pour it on your hand, Xu Ran evenly smeared the oil on the palms of both hands, and then gently attached it to Shuangshou Yanwu's body.
"Phew-"
Shuangshou Yanwu's eyes widened suddenly, and a cold touch made it violently agitated, and it gasped.
But with that comes an extremely hot feeling.
Shuangshou Yanwu felt that it was not a pair of hands clinging to him, but a burning flame, as a fire pet beast, it felt the heat for a long time, as if some power had penetrated into the interior of its body, making the power in its body also agitated.
Originally, in the process of washing and care, the flames that had become a little dim were burning again at this moment, and with the riot of the fire power, the two heads of the two heads of Yan Wu looked at the sky together, and let out a sharp cry.
Circles of flowing flames surged around its body, but in the midst of the flames, Xu Ran still seemed quite calm, unmoved, and continued to use mysterious techniques to rub the two heads of Yan Wu.
More and more fire-based power poured into the body of the Shuangshou Yanwu from the bath oil, nourishing his body as if it was dispelling and washing something.
Sitting in the corner of the washing room, the beast master, who had never said a word, had already stood up at some point, with a stunned look on his face.
It was as if he had seen something incredible in the firelight around Shuangshou Yanwu!
