Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Fortunately, the lord's mansion is located at the foot of Tianlong Mountain, the highest mountain in the east of Jiangnan City. Therefore, after the river water rushed into Jiangnan City, it temporarily only flooded the foot of the mountain and did not flood the lord's mansion.

Gu Chan had no choice but to take people on a small boat to the city to rescue people, and transport all the flooded civilians to the lord's mansion for resettlement.

Wei Xing followed her, sitting in the same boat with her, and couldn't help but say with emotion, "Although Yan Xishan is dead, he did a great thing when he was alive. If they hadn't built such a large lord's mansion at the foot of Tianlong Mountain to please the Second Prince, they really wouldn't know where to send the flooded people now."

"This is what they call everything has its pros and cons!" Gu Chan sighed.

"Little Boss, there is no problem in rescuing so many people, but this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution! If the river water rises again and floods in, the entire lord's mansion will probably be flooded." Wei Xing reminded.

Gu Chan was silent for a while after listening to this, and an embarrassed look appeared on her face.

Dry!

She now understood that being the Lord of Jiangnan was indeed not an easy job. Not only did she have to think about protecting herself, but she also had to think about protecting the tens of thousands of people in Jiangnan City. Moreover, if the flood did not recede, the entire Jiangnan area would probably suffer from the flood.

By then, millions of people in the Jiangnan area would be in horrible pain.

Thinking of this, Gu Chan couldn't help but say bitterly, "Wait a minute! I've asked Tiger Eagle to take Snake Sogou to patrol the river. Anyway, this flood is not simple. Not only did it happen too suddenly, but it also came so fast. There must be a problem."

"That's right. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. We can only wait for them to go and find out the results." Wei Xing said in reply.

Then the two of them calmed down temporarily and continued to rescue the people soaking in the water.

In the afternoon, the rain got heavier, and Gu Chan was finally too tired to bear it anymore, so she took a small boat back to the outside of the lord's mansion.

It was only when she came back that she discovered that the flood was almost reaching her doorstep. She estimated that after tonight, the flood would rush into the lord's mansion, and then she would not be able to protect her huge mansion at all.

Just as she was worried, the nine-fingered old beggar walked up to her with an oil-paper umbrella and said, "What's wrong? Is this little difficulty enough to stump you, the dignified Lord of Jiangnan?"

"Oh my god! You really are talking without any pain! If this continues, not only Jiangnan City, but the entire Jiangnan area will be flooded. This will cost the lives of millions of people!" Gu Chan said angrily.

"Then just find a way to solve the problem, and it will be over." The nine-fingered beggar said indifferently.

Gu Chan looked at the dark clouds rolling in the sky in the distance and said with a bitter face, "If I could solve it, I would have solved it long ago. Now, haven't I found the cause of this violent storm?"

"Then let me tell you! This is the work of a dragon, and this dragon was the mount of the ancestor of the Yan family hundreds of years ago." The nine-fingered old beggar explained.

Gu Chan immediately stared at him with eyes wide open, extremely surprised.

Wei Xing stood aside and asked, "Old Boss, how did you know about this?"

"I'm already this old, it's normal to know these things, isn't it?" said the nine-fingered beggar with his hands spread out.

Gu Chan and Wei Xing looked at each other, both of them were speechless because of what he said.

The nine-fingered beggar continued, "Don't underestimate the Yan family. The ancestor of the Yan family was the only beastmaster in the world. He was extremely powerful, but unfortunately he had evil intentions and used his great strength to destroy several countries. That's why he was hated and despised by the world."

"So that's how it is! Then we really underestimated the Yan family before." Wei Xing said in surprise.

Gu Chan rolled her eyes and said slyly, "Old Boss, the beastmaster you mentioned, is he the legendary beastmaster who can speak the language of beasts and control the powerful ability of mysterious beasts?"

"Yes, the ancestor of the Yan family possessed this powerful ability, and he could also enhance his strength by absorbing the powerful spiritual energy from the body of the mysterious beast." The nine-fingered old beggar said affirmatively.

“……”Gu Chan!

Depend on!

If it comes to speaking animal language, she can do it too!

But for so long, every mysterious beast around her has been able to absorb powerful spiritual energy from her body to practice, just like the big rooster Baidu and the four-legged snake Sogou. If it weren't for absorbing the powerful spiritual energy in her body, they would never have been able to evolve into what they are now.

On the other hand, she herself was simply unable to absorb spiritual energy from the spirit beasts to practice and enhance her own strength.

This means that she just got a bargain and accidentally gained the ability to speak animal language after traveling through time. Compared with a real beastmaster, she is not worth mentioning at all.

The nine-fingered old beggar stretched out his hand and slapped Gu Chan on the forehead, and scolded with a stiff face, "I told you these secrets, but you didn't listen carefully. Why are you distracted?"

"Hehe... I was just thinking about something. Sorry, please continue, old boss." Gu Chan smiled awkwardly and quickly came back to his senses.

"What else do I have to say? Have I told you everything that I shouldn't say? Anyway, to solve the current problem, we have to first deal with the dragon hiding in the Tiancang River. As long as you can get rid of it or subdue it, this sudden storm will stop and the flood will recede." The nine-fingered beggar said with a serious face.

Gu Chan nodded repeatedly after listening to this, thinking that this dragon was so powerful that it could call the wind and rain and stir up trouble. She would definitely not be able to defeat this guy on her own.

We have to go get help right now!

Thinking of this, Gu Chan immediately said to Wei Xing, "Let's go in and eat quickly. After the tiger eagles come back, we will go to Nifeng Valley to get help."

"Okay! Let's wait for them to come back and ask them about what they found out." Wei Xing nodded.

After that, the two of them hurried into the lobby in the front yard of the lord's mansion, asked the maid to bring them food, and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

Ren Nanshan and Long Yu led the guards and servants to properly accommodate the rescued refugees, distribute food to them, and temporarily calm everyone's emotions.

After dark, the tiger eagle finally flew back with the lizard Sogou.

As soon as the two mysterious beasts entered the lobby and saw Gu Chan, the four-legged snake Sogou started to curse, "I was wondering why there was a sudden storm. After all this time, it turned out to be the monster hiding in the Tiancang River. Damn it, I really want to rush down and fight it for 800 rounds."

"Come on! Do you think you can defeat it on your own?" Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

[Am I not in a hurry to come back and give you information? Otherwise, I would have gone down to fight it long ago.] The four-legged snake Sogou boasted.

Gu Chan waved her hand and said, "Okay, stop bragging, hurry up and eat something to fill your stomach, and then accompany us to Nifeng Valley to get help."

[Understood.] Siberian Snake Sogou readily agreed.

Then it wisely closed its mouth and started eating with the tiger eagle.

Anyway, it also understood that it was okay to brag, but the dragon hidden in the Tiancang River was very powerful and it could never defeat it on its own. Gu Chan gave it a way out, so it just went with the flow.
