Chapter 149: #149 - Chen Weiyi and the Cold Ox

Since Chen Yuan became a Beast Master, Chen Weiyi no longer needed to worry, and he had been idle for a long time.

When he had nothing to do, he would stroll around the village and chat with the old guys working in the fields.

And it was here that Chen Weiyi began to pay attention to a group of Frostwind Cattle.

They would come to the vicinity of Xuanhe Village every morning to forage for food. The vegetation here was lush and the safety factor was high, and they would not return to the mountains until evening.

The villagers had long been accustomed to their existence. As long as they didn't break into the village or damage the crops, they could do whatever they wanted.

Now that the spiritual energy had been revived, even ordinary people were no longer surprised to see extraordinary creatures.

But a week ago, a group of Frostwind Cattle calves were born.

For a tribe, the birth of calves is a top priority, which means that their tribe has hope for continuation and inheritance.

Therefore, every Frostwind Cattle calf is destined to be infinitely loved and cared for by the entire tribe.

But there was one exception.

After successfully meditating, Chen Weiyi's eyesight improved a lot. Even though he was more than ten meters away, he could clearly see the most special Frostwind Cattle calf.

The fur of the other Frostwind Cattle calves was snow-white, but it was a mixture of snow-white and tan, which looked very conspicuous.

The other Frostwind Cattle calves grew rapidly, almost changing every day, and they were getting bigger and bigger. Only its size had hardly changed since birth, and it looked very thin in front of the other calves.

This destined the special nature of this Frostwind Cattle calf in the tribe.

Chen Weiyi sometimes encountered scenes where adult Frostwind Cattle taught skills to the calves. It opened its mouth and spit out a mouthful of cold breath, and the other calves followed suit, spitting out a little bit of cold air in a decent manner.

Inevitably, there were stumbles and falls during the learning process, but these calves worked hard for a while, and eventually they all learned successfully.

Only that one calf, no matter how the adult Frostwind Cattle taught or carefully guided it, it could never learn.

Sometimes, when the other calves had learned the skills and ran aside to play, only it faced a small river alone, constantly opening its mouth, trying to spit out a cold breath, but helplessly closing its mouth.

It had worked hard enough, but it could never learn.

Chen Weiyi thought, this calf is too stupid.

Just like the bottom of the class, the same teacher teaches, some students learn as soon as they learn, but it is always the last one no matter how hard it tries.

But soon, Chen Weiyi discovered the extraordinary thing about this calf.

Although its size seemed small compared to the other calves, when they played games together, such as colliding with the pair of small horns on their heads, it was always easy for it to win.

With a light bump of its horns, it knocked the other calves to the ground.

Its small body seemed to contain infinite power.

But over time, this calf could no longer integrate into the circle of other calves.

No calf wanted to play with a weird Frostwind Cattle.

The variegated hair on its body was too dazzling, its size was too small, its learning ability was too low, and its strength was too barbaric.

So, like now, when the other Frostwind Cattle and calves were huddled together to rest, only it stayed alone, staring blankly at the small river in the distance, its long tail shaking weakly.

Occasionally, it would stand up, recalling the adult Frostwind Cattle's movements of spitting out cold breath, trying to open its mouth, but still not spitting out even a little bit of cold breath.

It failed again.

"Moo"

The Frostwind Cattle calf lowered its head and lay back on the ground.

"What an unpopular little guy," Chen Weiyi thought.

But his mood did not fluctuate much. He had seen too many similar things in his decades of life.

However, a lone calf is often the best prey.

The Firestripe Snake knew this well.

It curled its body tightly on a large tree, using the dense branches and leaves to cover its dark red body and the scales covered with flame patterns, its dark eyes staring straight at this lone Frostwind Cattle calf.

Since the spiritual plants were snatched away by the group of hateful Snowcloud Wolves and they were driven out of their habitat, the Firestripe Snake had been wandering around this area for several days.

It knew that there were many humans living in the nearby village, and a group of hateful guys who kept barking "Woof woof woof" were constantly patrolling.

The Firestripe Snake didn't dare to go in, so it had to stay nearby and live a hard life by relying on tree fruits.

Until this Frostwind Cattle calf who was alone all day broke into its sight.

It had had enough of the uninteresting tree fruits and had long forgotten the taste of flesh and blood.

But today, it made a bold decision.

Improving the food starts with this Frostwind Cattle calf.

A breeze blew, blowing the golden yellow leaves, rustling and falling.

The killing intent approached the Frostwind Cattle calf with the sound of the wind.

The Frostwind Cattle calf raised its head in confusion. Golden leaves fluttered and fell, and a conspicuous red color suddenly窜 out from the fluttering leaves, and a torrent of hot flames spurted out from its opened, grim mouth!

At this moment, the Firestripe Snake attacked the Frostwind Cattle calf like an arrow leaving the string, and the spurting flames quickly approached!

The temperature around it soared, and the滔滔 flames surged. The Frostwind Cattle calf had almost no time to react and was swallowed by the flames.

"Moo!"

A painful cry followed.

The entire tribe fell into a commotion.

"Moo moo moo!"

The Frostwind Cattle leader roared with its head held high, and then the Frostwind Cattle甩动 their tails, stepped on the ground with their limbs, and fled madly into the distance, stirring up a cloud of dust.

The terrified voices gradually faded away, and the Frostwind Cattle calf, its whole body burned by flames, struggled to raise its head, trying to send a cry for help to the tribe, but could only see a series of figures fleeing in a hurry.

So it fell into silence, no longer struggling, and let the flames spread.

Chen Weiyi quickly retreated the first moment the Firestripe Snake appeared, and at the same time shouted loudly to the villagers in the nearby fields: "Old Zhao, there's a snake!"

"Old Wang, run!"

The villagers raised their heads one after another, and after seeing the scene not far away clearly, they quickly threw down their hoes and ran towards the village.

"Aww aww aww!"

"Woof woof woof!"

However, at this moment, figures ran on the dirt road, and reassuring dog barks kept ringing.

Cola-led Paw Patrol appeared on time.

As the leader of the Xuanhe Village Paw Patrol, Cola believes that its mission is more important than Tie Touwa's.

Tie Touwa only needs to take care of the farm, while it needs to keep an eye on the entire village at all times. Once it smells a malicious strange smell, it will quickly attack with the Paw Patrol.

"Aww aww!"

Cola's figure帶風, and the speed of running is getting faster and faster. In an instant, it can cross tens of meters, throwing the other Paw Patrol members far behind.

The next moment, Cola saw the old farm owner hiding not far away, and was both surprised and angry.

Awoo, awoo, awoo!

If the master knew that I hadn't protected the old farm owner, he would definitely punish me severely!

Therefore, Cola's running speed increased by another level, almost turning into a blurred and invisible afterimage, and rushed out!

"Moo."

The Frostwind Bull was already desperate, and its scorched body was sending waves of pain. It could only watch as the Fire-Patterned Snake opened its terrifying mouth, revealing fangs that gleamed with cold light, as if it would bite its head off in the next second.

"Awoo!"

Suddenly, an angry dog bark rang in its ears, followed by a lithe figure straddling it and slamming into the Fire-Patterned Snake opposite.

"Hiss!"

The Fire-Patterned Snake was like a kite with a broken string, knocked several meters away by Cola, its head spinning.

It blankly raised its head, meeting a pair of angry eyes.

A suffocating aura of oppression crashed down at the same time.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo!"

Cola had no desire to communicate with this hateful guy. Accompanied by an angry roar, several materialized wind blades gathered around its body and shot out!

The Fire-Patterned Snake clearly saw Cola's figure, but the wind blades had already arrived. It didn't have time to think, and directly spat out a stream of flames to resist.

No one is wrong, one first, one hair, one inside, one appearance, one is in, one look!

The wind blades, wrapped in a fierce aura, brazenly cut through the scorching flames. The Fire-Patterned Snake quickly hid behind a thick tree trunk.

Bang!

The wind blade struck the tree trunk, instantly creating a deep crack. Then, the tree swayed and actually fell backward.

Thump!!!

The Fire-Patterned Snake quickly moved away, watching as the tree crashed to the ground with a deafening roar, and couldn't help but widen its eyes.

"Woof woof woof!"

The other Paw Patrol members followed Cola's footsteps and quickly arrived, pairs of hostile eyes staring intently at the Fire-Patterned Snake.

"Hiss!"

In that instant, the Fire-Patterned Snake recalled the fear of being chased by that pack of Snowcloud Wolves.

No, even scarier than that pack of Snowcloud Wolves.

Its body trembled slightly, and in the next moment, it unhesitatingly abandoned the prey that was only one step away from being obtained, wriggled its body, and darted into the dense grass.

"Awoo!"

With Cola's order, all the Paw Patrol members immediately began to chase.

Seeing the figures of the Paw Patrol gradually moving away and disappearing into the dense jungle, Chen Weiyi walked to the fallen Frostwind Bull cub and lowered his head: "I wonder if it's still breathing?"

"Moo."

The Frostwind Bull cub weakly opened its eyes.

At this time, Chen Weiyi had already taken out his phone and dialed a number: "Son, are you free right now?"

"There's an injured pet here that needs your treatment."

Three minutes later,

The Meteor Horned Beast carried Chen Yuan to the side of the Frostwind Bull cub.

He didn't ask too many questions, and directly opened the medical kit to start treatment: "A large area of burns isn't a fatal injury for a pet."

"However, the Frostwind Bull is an ice-type pet, so it looks more serious."

He took out the specially purchased burn treatment ointment and applied it to the slightly charred fur.

Then, Chen Yuan stretched out his right hand, and the Twinflower Concubine tore off a petal and handed it to his palm.

Chen Yuan squatted down and placed the petal in front of the Frostwind Bull cub's mouth, and said softly: "Eat it."

The Frostwind Bull seemed to be conscious, and without opening its eyes, it opened its mouth and held the petal in its mouth, chewing it carefully.

"Whimper ~"

Looking at this poor little guy, a trace of heartache flashed in the Twinflower Concubine's eyes. It tried to tear off another petal, but was stopped by Chen Yuan: "One petal is enough."

Although the Twinflower Concubine's petals have a cooldown time, it can tear off several petals at once, but there is no superimposed healing effect.

Treatment ointment plus a petal is enough to allow this Frostwind Bull cub to recover quickly.

"It'll be completely fine after a few more days of rest," Chen Yuan said.

Then, he looked at Chen Weiyi and asked, "Grandpa, what's going on?"

"Ah." The old man first sighed, and then told Chen Yuan what had happened here.

"So that's how it is..." Chen Yuan nodded thoughtfully, then shook his head, "How could such a group grow and develop."

In the groups he had encountered, every cub was cared for, and if a cub encountered danger, every member of the group would desperately rescue it.

This was the first time he had seen a group that turned around and ran when a cub encountered danger.

Even according to what the old man said, this Frostwind Bull was very special, even rejected by the group, but wasn't it still a member of the group?

But at this moment, looking at the old man who was staring intently at the Frostwind Bull cub, Chen Yuan had an idea and said, "Grandpa, take it back to the farm and let it rest for a few days."

"Okay," the old man said without hesitation.

Chen Yuan turned his head to look at the Meteor Horned Beast: "Then I'll have to trouble you."

"Roar roar."

The Meteor Horned Beast very consciously lowered its body, making it easier for Chen Yuan to lift the Frostwind Bull cub onto its back.

At this time, the dejected Cola also returned with the Paw Patrol.

Chen Yuan asked, "Didn't catch it?"

"Awoo awoo..."

Cola lowered its head guiltily.

Perhaps worried that Chen Yuan would reprimand it, Cola quickly raised its head and waved its paws unwillingly.

That guy was too cunning. It slipped into the grass and ran away without paying attention.

By the time it finally smelled the Fire-Patterned Snake's scent, it found that the Fire-Patterned Snake had already slipped into the cracks in the rocks, and Cola could only stand outside and stare blankly.

"It's okay, you arrived in time, I don't blame you," Chen Yuan rubbed Cola's head and comforted it softly.

The fact that the Fire-Patterned Snake wasn't killed by Cola in one hit, and even managed to escape calmly under the combined attack of Cola and the Paw Patrol, meant that it was likely a Tier 2 creature.

Snake-type pets are agile, can use the environment to conceal their tracks, and can also burrow into narrow terrain, making them difficult to chase.

"But..."

"A Tier 2 Fire-Patterned Snake has actually appeared near the village. It seems that I have to ask the village chief to tell the villagers to pay attention to safety," Chen Yuan's eyes flashed slightly as he pondered secretly.

Seeing that the master didn't reprimand it, Cola felt very uncomfortable.

Could it be that the master has completely given up on me?

Could it be that the master no longer believes in my ability?

Thinking of this, Cola's emotions were complicated. Suddenly, it raised its eyes and stared at the direction the Fire-Patterned Snake had escaped, and let out a low growl: "Awoo."

No, I must catch it!

Noticing Cola's unusual emotions, Chen Yuan smiled helplessly: "It's really okay, this kind of pet is good at escaping, you've already done a great job."

"Awoo awoo!"

Facing the master's comfort, a rare trace of seriousness flashed in Cola's eyes, and it shook its head.

Don't worry, Master, I will catch it!
