Chapter 59 New Little Animals
Feeling the chilling power flowing through his body, Yan Shuzhou exclaimed with some delight, "Sister, it seems I can summon new animals!"
"Oh?" Miao Yin became interested. "Let's see it."
A small black array lit up in Yan Shuzhou's palm, and the Immortal Kingdom began to operate. He carefully controlled the flow of power, and sweat beaded on his brow as he struggled to work.
Fortunately, he succeeded in the end, and a new little animal appeared in his palm.
This little animal has short limbs and a big body, looking round and chubby. It is slightly larger than a nine-tailed rabbit. Its three-lobed lips are hidden under its long, sloping nose. Both its lips and the tip of its nose are a tender pink. Its small eyes are black and shiny, like pearls in milk tea.
Its four paws and round tail are pure black, while the fur on both sides of its cheeks and down to its ears is dark gray. There is also a ring of light gray fur around its neck, and the rest of its fur is snow-white and soft, sliding smoothly against its body, making it look like a dumpling with its filling leaked out.
Miao Yin picked it up and discovered that there were four small white crescent moons under its black paws.
"Is this a pig?" Miao Yin asked.
Yan Shuzhou nodded: "It's called the Moon-Treading Pig. Its ability is that it can eat anything, without limit. The more it eats, the bigger it grows."
As if to prove its master's words, the newborn Moon-Treading Piglet let out a babyish whistle.
Miao Yin felt that the favored one followed his master's lead, and this guy was just like Yan Shuzhou.
"Does that mean you can eat anything, including mutants?"
"it should be OK."
Miao Yin took out the spider meat she had just cut from the Eighty-Eight Temples and fed it to the Moon-Treading Pig.
The Moon-Treading Pig stretched out its two short claws, grabbed the meat, stuffed it into its mouth, and chewed it up with its three-lobed lips.
Waste disposal bin.
Miao Yin defined it in her mind.
"Now we have a place to put leftover food that we can't finish, which is great and saves us from using garbage bags."
"Sister, it will be useful when it grows up," Yan Shuzhou said, speaking up for the little animal.
"How much food will it need to grow up?"
"..." Yan Shuzhou was speechless. The quantity was hard to estimate; in short, a great many were needed.
"It's alright." Miao Yin stroked the soft fur of the Moon-Treading Pig, which squinted its eyes in comfort.
"There's nothing else, but there are still a lot of deformed people. We can bring back some corpses later. I'm also very curious about what they'll look like."
For example, could it be like eating a deformed person one bite at a time?
"Mmm." Yan Shuzhou caught the Moon-Treading Pig, his expression gentle.
"I'm going to rest now, it's getting late."
She was especially woken up this morning, which made her feel sleepy.
"Good night sister."
"Good night."
As soon as Miao Yin closed the door, the gentle expression on her face vanished, replaced by her usual expressionless look.
Upon seeing the curse, he was moved.
She licked her lips, a dangerous glint flashing in her eyes.
The mark that was triggered was on Peng Si's head.
The other party seemed to be testing the authenticity of the mark, trying to tell others about their transaction, which triggered the curse's reaction.
However, he hasn't actually revealed the matter yet; it's just a hint, so the curse hasn't been fully activated, but she can already sense it.
Since that's the case, let me give you a little reminder.
The curse was activated, and the invisible curse traveled through houses, roads, bushes, and branches, all the way to Peng Si's body.
Tiny, invisible flames of curse burned in his soul, the intense pain almost causing Peng Si, filled with gratitude, to kneel before Jiang Tao and Qiu Jing.
"Captain Peng?!" Qiu Jing stood up with concern.
It actually can be controlled remotely!
Peng Si gritted his teeth, his face grim.
Fortunately, the pain came and went quickly, and in order not to show it in front of them, Peng Si quickly adjusted his expression.
"It's nothing, it's just static electricity in the clothes, let's continue."
Seeing his appearance, Qiu Jing and Jiang Tao both swallowed their questions.
Peng Si must have his reasons for not wanting to talk about it, and there's no need for them to ask any further.
So they continued their discussion about the "rescue team's sudden encounter with a mysterious person with superpowers".
After giving her warning, Miao Yin took her pajamas and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Hot water poured down from the showerhead above, washing away the dust from her body, and she comfortably tilted her head back.
I'm sure I'll get a good night's sleep tonight.
Early in the morning, what woke Miao Yin from her sleep was the sound of Yan Shuzhou turning on the range hood.
Her hearing seems to have become more sensitive again.
After snuggling in the warm blankets for a while, Miao Yin slowly got out of bed.
She intended to pull back the curtains, but with a gentle tug, the entire curtain fell down, scattering hooks all over the floor.
The soft morning sunlight dispelled the darkness in the room, and the room immediately became bright. Miao Yin looked at her palm and realized that the ghost body had once again enhanced her physical abilities.
It seems that while she was asleep last night, her supernatural ability silently evolved once again after absorbing the power of the crystal core.
Next time I go out, I'll have to practice my skills against the mutants a few times.
She ignored the fallen curtains, knowing that Yan Shuzhou would come and put them back in place.
After changing her clothes and getting ready, Miao Yin stretched and went downstairs.
During this time, Yan Shuzhou had already prepared breakfast and was putting the plates on the table.
Today he made a standard Chinese breakfast.
Sweet and delicious soup dumplings, two bowls of fresh pork wontons sprinkled with bright green scallions, fried dough sticks and fried eggs—the enticing aroma of breakfast wafted throughout the restaurant, easily whetting one's appetite.
"Good morning, sister." The boy with eyes as clear as mountain spring water looked up and gave her a gentle smile.
"Good morning. My curtain fell down. Could you help me put it back together in a bit? There should be instructions in the cabinet."
"Okay, I'll go there in a minute."
His cool yet youthful face, coupled with his gentle tone and kind words, gave Miao Yin a pleasant morning.
They sat together, enjoying breakfast in a simple and warm way, just like before. Even after returning from a few days away, their leisurely lifestyle remained unchanged.
After Yan Shuzhou fixed the curtains, he began practicing his special abilities as usual, and the manor was once again filled with little rabbits.
During this trip, several of Miao Yin's knives became dull again, so some of the Nine-Tails Rabbits huffed and puffed as they sharpened them for her, while others were called by Yan Shuzhou to pull weeds.
The small manor used to have many flowers and plants, but they all withered on the day the apocalypse came. Miao Yin thought that even withered flowers and fallen willows were still flowers, and it was better than bare land, so she didn't bother to deal with them. She would admire them from time to time, to appreciate the beauty of life. But now she was tired of it.
So Yan Shuzhou listened to her and picked all the withered flowers and plants to feed the Tayue Pig.
Unlike the Nine-Tasseled Rabbit, which can be summoned in dozens at will, Yan Shuzhou can only possess one with his current abilities.
But one is enough for him to keep.
The little moon pig's belly is like a bottomless pit; no matter how much you feed it, it won't get bloated. Its three-lobed lips chew and smack, giving it the air of a modern-day glutton.
