Jiuxiao

This newborn, cub of an unknown species is curious about everything.

Although it cannot speak human words, this does not prevent it from expressing its feelings.

It seemed to be very attached to Zhou Yin, the first thing it saw after breaking its shell. It squeaked around him all day long, even slept next to him, and refused to leave even for a moment during the day.

Therefore, everyone in the Ji Mansion could often see a gray ball of hair lying on the shoulder of the expressionless Zhou Yin. The scene was really funny, but Zhou Yin's aura was frightening, and no one dared to laugh in front of him. ——Mao Tuan originally thought it would be more comfortable to lie on top of Zhou Yin's head, but since it was too difficult to achieve, he had to settle for the next best thing.

In fact, Zhou Yin was also very helpless.

It created a whole lot of trouble.

First is the name.

The hair ball has already broken its shell, so naturally it can no longer be called a monster egg. Facing a cub blinking innocently and looking forward to him, he said without changing his face: "Mao Yuan, the surname is Mao Yuan. , as the name suggests."

Hairy and round.

cub:"……"

Wet liquid rolled around in the eye sockets, expressing dissatisfaction plaintively.

Zhou Yin: "Grey hair."

cub:"……"

Zhou Yin: "Mao Zhi."

Cub: "Squeak!"

This is a protest of outrage.

Zhou Yin: "Xiaohui, Xiaotuan, Huidan."

It got into the quilt and covered itself, deaf, and the quilt bulged into a round ball.

Faced with this cute behavior, Zhou Yin was unmoved and pulled it out.

It squeaked a few times, and rubbed its head against Zhou Yin's fingers, trying to pretend to be cute to win him a smile. This trick was tried and tested on other people in the Ji Mansion, but Zhou Yin was completely immune to it.

"If you don't like it, think about it yourself. If you don't think about it, use Maoyuan. That's it."

It had no choice but to wriggle and jump off the bed. Because there was too much fluff, it was unscathed. It just rolled over and ran to the door with great difficulty, pecking and patting at the painted threshold. The wings creaked.

Zhou Yin watched it perform, and speculated blankly: "Peck the paint? Gnaw the door? Red squeak?"

Mao Tuan was completely discouraged, and lay motionless on the threshold, with his head drooping, indicating that the can was broken.

A smile flashed across Zhou Yin's eyes, and he said lightly: "Let's call it Zhou Chen. Chen, east by southeast, is the place where I found you. The earthly branch belongs to dragon, which is also a metaphor for all things and stars. No matter what you grow into in the future, It's not a disgrace to your identity."

Mao Tuan's eyes lit up, and when he ran over, he was about to throw himself into Zhou Yin's arms, but was grabbed by two fingers and thrown aside.

"It's so dirty, don't come near me without washing it."

Having just tasted some sweetness and being rejected again, Mao Tuan's eyes were full of tears, and his glass heart shattered all over the place.

Next is the problem of eating.

Zhou Yin is now in the early stage of foundation establishment, and theoretically, he can eat bigu pills to live without having to touch the fireworks in the world, but although he meditates even when he sleeps, he doesn't treat himself harshly when it comes to eating. Cook three meals a day for him, and he will not refuse anyone.

As for Zhou Chen, when it is still in the eggshell, it can grow by absorbing spiritual energy, but after hatching, it needs to start eating. Zhou Yin didn't understand its origin, so naturally he didn't know that it had to eat What, simply take it with you when you eat, let it see for itself, eat whatever you like, and take stocking measures.

Zhou Chen is particularly interested in all human food, or what Zhou Yin eats. Every time Zhou Yin stretches out his chopsticks, he looks at it eagerly, and then has to taste it himself.

Over time, Mao Tuan learned to go to the kitchen to find food by himself.

It is well versed in spirituality, and can pretend to be cute. The Ji family has long been familiar with it. Every time they see it running into the kitchen, they will set aside a portion of the dishes that have not been served on the table. As time goes on, the fluff on its body becomes more and more It is so smooth and smooth, the size that could be held in the palm of the hand, but now it has gained a lot of fat.

Then there is the matter of growing and learning.

Since the birth of high-level monsters, their path is destined to be different. They not only have the ability to transform into human form, but also have the talent and spiritual root of cultivation.

Inheriting the blood of the ancient gods, the unique conditions of monster cultivation allow them to go further on the road of cultivation and achieve higher achievements. The rarer the beast, the thinner the blood.

Now in the Taichu Continent, high-level monsters and even monster cultivators are almost extinct. Apart from the past glory, some are sealed, and some deliberately hide their tracks, there is another very important reason, that is, the reproduction of offspring is becoming more and more difficult. This also makes the demon cultivators who occasionally appear on the mainland basically have cultivation bases above the Nascent Soul stage, so that others dare not provoke them, let alone the idea of ​​subduing them as pets.

Zhou Chen is a high-level monster, there is no doubt about it, no matter from the vision of the sky when it was discovered, or from its spirituality after birth, it is impossible for a low-level monster to have such an ability, but the problem is also Then it followed: Zhou Yin couldn't see its origin, and he didn't see any relatives and elders coming to him, so it was even more impossible to know how to educate this hairball.

Therefore, we had to refer to the learning mode of ordinary people.

If you want to understand the practice classics, you must learn the language, so let's start with "Thousand Characters".

"The heaven and the earth are mysterious and yellow, the universe is prehistoric, read it with me."

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

"The sun and the moon are in full bloom, and the celestial constellations are listed. There is your name, Chen, and the Chen of the stars."

"Squeak!"

"..." Zhou Yin is not a patient person, so he had such a high level of cultivation back then, and he had never accepted a disciple. At this moment, he felt that his patience had reached the edge, so he couldn't help pinching his forehead, The blue veins smoothed out, and he continued in a calm tone as much as possible: "Zhou Yin, my name. The sealer, the letter is also, and the words are seals, like the words spoken, a thousand gold and a promise."

He was persistent with the brush, and wrote the word "seal" on the paper. The style of the brushwork was chic, but it was like a gold, stone and iron hook. "I also have an older brother who took the word Zhang from it and named him Zhou Zhang."

Looking away from the paper, he raised his eyes and landed on the hairball next to him.

"..."

The furry head rests on the wings, the body rises and falls with the breathing, the closed eyes are hidden in the fluff, and it is almost invisible if you don't look carefully, and the saliva drips from the corner of the mouth to the book.

The crabapple flowers outside the window are in full bloom, clustered in clusters, as gorgeous as the rouge and bright clouds to the extreme, gently swaying under the breeze, the pink and black are romantic, touching people's hearts.

What a picture of hairball crabapple sleeping in spring.

Zhou Yin heard the string called reason break in his mind.

"Reflect on me, if you still can't speak, you won't have dinner from tonight to tomorrow!"

The servants of Ji's mansion who passed by outside the wing room only heard a muffled sound, and there was an extra ball of hair on the crabapple tree.

Zhou Chen was hung on it, his chubby body happened to be stuck between the branches, and he looked at the servant who was looking up with aggrieved eyes, wide-eyed and small-eyed.

With a puff, the servant hurriedly covered his mouth, walked away in a hurry, looked at the back, and endured a very hard smile.

In just a few days, Zhou Yin already had undeniable authority in the Ji Mansion. His identity, aura, and Cao's mother and son's hope that he could rescue Ji Rong, the master of the Ji Mansion, made no one dare to plead for Mao Tuan against the wind. .

Although Mao Tuan... Zhou Chen does look a little pitiful.

After more than ten days, someone outside sent an invitation card with Yu Nuo's name written on it, saying that he was invited to the Pingnan military camp.

Zhou Yin accepted the post, explained a few words to Cao and others, then took the hair ball and left with the people who came to deliver the invitation.

The person who came was Lu Da, who was originally a captain in front of Pingnan Army's commander Hui Jun. He couldn't prevent people from attacking and assassinating him day and night, so he had to win over Zhou Yin, but his heart was not very happy, and he asked a lot of questions about cultivation along the way, consciously or unconsciously.

Seeing that Zhou Yin was riding a horse with him, he didn't fly against the wind like other monks, and he felt contemptuous.

Zhou Yin could see it naturally, but how could he take it to heart, his face was still cold, the other party asked ten questions, and he would answer a half sentence when he was in a good mood, and he was too lazy to speak when he didn't want to talk, which made the captain so angry that his teeth itch but helpless.

"Mr. Yu recommended and praised Brother Zhou in front of Hui Shuai many times. My younger brother is not talented. Although he is not a person who cultivates immortals, he knows a thing or two about today's sect of cultivating immortals. I don't know what sect and sect Brother Zhou is from. It is Shangxuanzong. Or Tian Yanzong?"

Zhou Yin said: "It's just a small family, so don't mention it."

The tone was understated, without embarrassment or embarrassment.

Lu Da didn't give up, and stabbed again: "Brother Zhou's talent must be highly valued in your sect, but I think you don't even have a good weapon... ah!"

Before he finished speaking, he took a few steps back and couldn't help but scream.

It was Mao Tuan Zhou Chen who jumped out of nowhere and flapped his wings to peck at Lu Da's eyes.

The precision of the angle and the swiftness of the speed are comparable to eating food on weekdays. Even though Lu Da is superb in martial arts, he had to avoid the sharp edge, and had no time to draw the knife, so he had to reach out to block it.

As a result, the chubby hairy body turned around in mid-air, and slashed across his face instead.

The five claws were raised, and five bloodstains were printed in the middle of the forehead. Coupled with that fierce face, it looked very funny.

Lu Da was furious, and he drew his knife and was about to chop at the hairball.

But Zhou Yin stretched out his finger to meet the blade, and tapped lightly on it in a leisurely manner.

Lu Da suddenly felt the tiger's mouth shake violently, and he couldn't help but backed up a few steps. Once he let go of his hand, he couldn't hold the knife anymore.

The blade split into two, half fell to the ground, and the other half flew up, brushing against his cheek.

Zhou Yin picked up the hair ball and stuffed it into his sleeve, and glanced at him: "How far is this place from the barracks?"

Lu Da only felt that the wound on his cheek just now was more painful than the one caught by the unknown cub. Then he looked at the half of the knife on the ground, which was already covered with a thick layer of frost, and there was a red mark on it. His own blood.

With a shock in his heart, he realized that no matter what the other party's cultivation level is, as long as he is a cultivator, he is destined to be different from ordinary people like them, and he is not something he can provoke. He came to greet him in person, laughing at himself for being short-sighted and almost ruining the coach's affairs.

Thinking of it this way, he quickly put away his underestimation, and his tone of speech to Zhou Yin also became respectful: "You little one has eyes but doesn't know Taishan, what an offense, I hope you will forgive me, the barracks is right in front of you, just a moment Available."

While speaking, he saw the Pingnan military camp in the distance.

Backed by Yunzhou, surrounded by majestic mountains and vast blue sky.At a glance, the tents stretched out around the main camp in the middle. There were heavy soldiers guarding and patrolling back and forth, and occasionally heard the sound of drills and orders, but there was no noise and disorder. The military discipline was solemn and orderly. This is invincible and famous The Pingnan Army of the world.
