All my elves are in the late stages of lazy cancer

Pet beasts like the Cuckoo Bird, which is the lowest level of bronze, have weak combat effectiveness.

Its population is mostly distributed in the cold northern areas. It has thick feathers all over its body. Even its feet are not covered with a layer of scales like other birds, but look like they are wearing a pair of white wool socks.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to suffer so many injuries, unless it is... man-made.

"Dang Dang Dang..."

A knock on the door suddenly interrupted Shen Changle's thinking.

Shen Changle stood up and opened the door. Outside the door was a thin man with triangular eyes.

"Hello, is something wrong?"

The man didn't say anything, but moved forward. With a quick glance, he bypassed Shen Changle and saw the cuckoo bird on the table in the room. He pointed at it with a smile and said:

"It's okay, brother, wasn't it when we were training the bird that it ran away? Fortunately, it has been hungry recently and it didn't run far. Didn't it fly to your house? Just give it to me."

Shen Changle frowned slightly and said, "Yours? Is this your soul beast?"

"If you don't sign a contract, you should consider it a pet beast, but it is indeed raised by me. Look at the belt under its feet. It has the word WY on it." The man smiled.

The letters he had just seen on the cuckoo's feet suddenly flashed through Shen Changle's mind, and he nodded and let the man into the room.

"Hey! Let me look for this good guy, but brother, why are you feeding him? It will take me a few more days to eat."

"Come here silly bird!"

The man was polite to others when he entered the house, but he was not polite at all when facing the pet beast. His triangular eyes turned upside down and became a slit. He took out a whip from nowhere and whipped the Cuckoo bird hard in the next second. On the legs, feathers flew randomly in an instant.

"Come here!" the man shouted.

The frightened Cuckoo Bird stumbled, the cookie crumbs in its mouth spilled all over the floor, and its whole body was shaking with severe pain.

The big eyes that were smart and cute before were staring at the man, filled with suppressed anger and unwillingness. The beak, which was not sharp, shone slightly with a faint cold light.

"Hey you little beast, what do you want? If you dare to peck me, I'll electrocute you to death!"

The man laughed angrily, turned his wrist and instantly turned on the switch on the handle, and raised the whip for the second time. The barbs on it stood upright, and sputtered with little electric lights.

When Shen Changle saw this scene, he grabbed the triangle-eyed wrist and cursed:

"Put away your electric whip! Don't you know it's forbidden to use these things in breeding houses?"

The man with triangular eyes was very thin. Seeing Shen Changle walking forward so tall, he couldn't help but take a step back. However, he refused to admit defeat and said: "Why? I raised a bird. I will teach it a lesson for disturbing you." What happened?"

Shen Changle: "I can still distinguish between thief Sun's teaching and abuse. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you get whipped just now."

"Don't worry about it... you just said you didn't have a contract, didn't you?"

Shen Changle, who had been silently watching one person and one bird for a long time, recalled the change in Cuckoo's eyes at the last moment, and finally made up his mind to speak.

"Um???"

"Why, brother, you..." The man was stunned for a moment and then turned from anger to joy. He looked up and down at Shen Changle with interest and said with a smile.

Shen Changle waved his hands calmly and said:

"We are all doing this, so let's get straight to the point. I want this heterochromatic cuckoo, not as a spirit beast. We all know its fighting power. There is no prospect at all. I just give it to girls because of its color and appearance. As a gift."

"I think this cuckoo bird is not very obedient. I don't know how long it will take to train him like this. If you use too much force and get some hidden injuries, you will have to pay for it yourself in the end. Give it to you. I’ll help you digest it in advance if it’s a real price.”

The man glanced at Shen Changle with triangular eyes, and then at the Cuckoo bird on the table who still looked dissatisfied. After weighing the pros and cons, he smiled, stretched out five fingers and said:

"Five hundred psychic coins are of different colors after all. The price is fair."

"Wang Yang, you have the nerve to say that five hundred psychic coins are enough to sign a good quality Gale Wolf or Flame Tail Fox."

"Yeah, the price is too expensive. Chang Le won't buy it anymore. I have a snow fox at home that's much cuter than this one. You can just take it away if it's fifty...not thirty psychic coins. He's so beautiful. !”

The soundproofing of the employee dormitory was not very good. The conversation after the quarrel between the two happened to be heard by the colleague next door. At this time, he couldn't help but come to the door to speak out.

"Okay, okay, that's the lowest. I'll sell it to you at the lowest of four hundred power coins." Wang Yang, with triangular eyes, looked unhappy when he heard others talking about it. He waved his hand and gave in some price.

Chen Huanyu took out a wallet from her arms, opened it, shook it at Wang Yang and said:

"The salary for two months is only three hundred psychic coins. If you eat for thirty, I can give you two hundred and seven. You don't have to decide how much more you want."

"Hey Changle! Think about it again! Did you save the money to buy the first soul beast elf to buy a cuckoo bird?"

"Yeah, thirty is enough for my snow fox, so why bother... This bird gray doesn't look very good if it doesn't pull the trigger."

The two breeders next door had a good impression of the young man Shen Changle, and they also gave good advice at this time.

However, Shen Changle just smiled and nodded, indicating that he had an idea.

"...Oh, okay, just treat me as a loss once, then it's two hundred and seven, take it!"

Wang Yang sighed with an expression of loss, but put down the Cuckoo Bird without any nostalgia, took the money and left, as if he was afraid that Shen Changle would regret it.

Watching this man leave in a hurry, Cuckoo Bird seemed to let out a long sigh of relief, and tried his best to pretend to be fierce and directly use it.

The next second, he couldn't wait to jump onto Shen Changle's shoulders, and rubbed Shen Changle's cheek affectionately with his furry little head...

"Okay, that's ok. This bird doesn't look big, but it's quite smart and can tell the difference very well."

The uncle who was the breeder who helped remind him just now raised his eyebrows at this scene and said in amusement.

Shen Changle was also a little surprised by the spirituality of this cuckoo bird, but he quickly bowed to the two keepers and thanked them:

"Brother Li, Uncle Zhao, I have to thank you two for reminding me just now, but I had some reasons for buying it myself. I'm letting you down for your kindness."

Brother Li, who was younger, smiled and said nonchalantly: "Hey, no need to, you are the most diligent in doing the dirty and tiring work, and you have saved us a lot of trouble. My colleagues have to help me no matter what."

"Yes, besides, we all really hate this person." Uncle Zhao waved his hand and smiled.

"Um... can you tell me more specifically?" Shen Changle said.

When talking about this person, Brother Li also said angrily: "Hey Shen Changle, you don't know, that person just now is the brother-in-law of a senior breeder in the breeding house, nicknamed Guijianchou."

"He doesn't know how to do anything. He has these two skills, the skill of raising soul beasts to death, and the skill of making money. He dares to eat the food of the soul beast elves and the cubs they give birth to."

"You, this cuckoo, are the hatchlings of the two high-level bronze cuckoos that were sent to give birth some time ago."

"That guy saw that there was this strange-colored bird inside that could make money, so he put some medicine in the food and knocked out the two coo-coo birds and stole them out."

Hearing Brother Li's revelations, Shen Changle frowned in disgust, and his impression of this person completely dropped to rock bottom.

The most important responsibilities in a breeding house like theirs are actually two. One is to help the beast master's soul beast elves to reproduce their offspring, and the other is to replace the beast master to recuperate the soul beasts that have been eliminated but have deep feelings. ,take care of.

Just like the war machine that Shen Changle takes care of, it is a golden-level mammoth-like soul beast elf. Although it is now in its twilight years, if you want to be able to eat enough every day, at least you need a meal quota of about 80 psychic coins a day. .

Although Shen Changle complained from time to time, it was just a talk. One person and one animal got along very harmoniously. Occasionally, Shen Changle would buy it some spiritual fruits it liked to eat as a meal. Of course, these were all paid for by himself.

But there are only a few people who really like soul beasts, and there are still a large number of breeders who just regard this as a job.

Even people like Wang Yang who deducted money from the meal prices and enriched their own pockets regardless of the soul beast's life and death have never stopped.

Shen Changle had already known about this unspoken rule, but he had only heard of it, but this was the first time he had actually seen it.
