Taming beasts starts with raising cats

Just finished taking a shower, Bai Ye dried his body and changed into new clothes.

Bai Ye summoned his beasts as usual to prepare for patrol. He heard the sound of rain outside the window and pushed open the window. The big raindrops hit the leaves of the plants on the windowsill, making a soft gasp.

There was a knock on the door downstairs.

Bai Ye opened the door and Dou Juan stood outside with an umbrella.

"President Bai."

"Is there something urgent so late?"

"I want to ask you for help. I originally wanted to do it myself, but I found that there was really no way." Dou Juan said embarrassedly.

"......"

Bai Ye poured a glass of water for Dou Juan.

"Don't worry, sit down and talk slowly." Bai Ye said gently.

Dou Juan felt warm in her heart. Bai Ye is so strong now, but he is still so approachable.

"My talent is called 'Heart of the Insect Race'. The effect is that the offspring of my insect beasts are under my control and are considered my beasts." Dou Juan said.

Bai Ye was a little surprised. This talent... Bai Ye didn't know how to evaluate it.

It sounds good, but the lifespan of insect beasts is short, and this will automatically sign more insect beasts.

If this goes on, it won't be long before the lifespan is greatly reduced...

"Well, go on." Bai Ye asked, and he guessed Dou Juan's request.

"I would like to ask you, President, to help me subdue a pair of insect beasts, or the kind that reproduces quickly and is easier to cultivate." Dou Juan said cautiously.

"Are you sure? You know what the more insect beasts you sign, the more it means. Your best way should be not to sign insect beasts, but to sign beasts with other attributes. Although the combat power may be a little weaker and you have one less talent than others, your lifespan can be increased and you can live longer." Bai Ye said.

"My talent seems to be able to avoid the negative impact of lifespan. Except for the first insect beast I signed, which consumes my life, the offspring does not seem to affect me." Dou Juan said.

Of course, she has considered this aspect. The gunworms she subdued in the ruins before have now reproduced more than fifty, and it still has no effect on her.

However, the gunworms are of low level, just ordinary quality monsters.

Although there are many of them, each one is very weak and has no ability to protect her.

If the enemy gives up fighting with the gunworms and goes straight to Huanglong, she can only surrender.

She originally wanted to subdue a few extraordinary insect monsters by herself, but they are too rare. There are many extraordinary monsters, but extraordinary insect monsters are rare, and she may not be able to beat them.

So that's the case, then the value of this talent has risen.

Insect creatures reproduce quickly, even monsters have this characteristic.

Bai Ye waved his hand. "It's just a small matter, but what are you prepared to pay?"

Dou Juan was stunned, she suddenly became confident in her charm, it seems that my mother's maintenance is still effective.

"100 points, first on credit." Bai Ye said.

"......" Dou Juan fell into doubt about her charm again.

Bai Ye smiled, "My price is not expensive, I am doing a good thing now."

This is called an initial investment.

The strongest insect monsters around here are only extraordinary and top-grade.

It was a purple centipede, but it ran very fast after seeing Bai Ye and hid in the mountains.

It's not that she didn't consider the black tiger dog, but the book said that it's best to train beasts according to your own talents.

"I'll help you pay attention." Bai Ye said.

He remembered that he had seen several extraordinary insect monsters nearby.

But there were not many, and it seemed that extraordinary insect monsters rarely gathered in groups.

"Thank you, President." Dou Juan stood up and bowed 90 degrees in gratitude.

The rain outside the window was getting heavier. Since the flood, rainy days have been common.

The previous waterline was slowly rising... It seemed that this had not reached their limit.

Because of the heavy rain, the village's hunting team stopped going out to hunt.

However, with the prey hunted before and the food stored in the warehouse, there was no need to worry about food for the time being.

......

In the heavy rain, a bulge suddenly appeared in the muddy ground.

From the muddy soil, an animal that looked like a snake or a lizard crawled out of the soil. It had only two hind legs, and its body was covered with long brown-red hair, exuding an ominous aura.

It stood on the ground with its two hind legs, and then looked around.

Then, the two hind legs swung left and right as if they were having fun, and ran away and disappeared.

On the ground nearby, one after another raised mud mounds emerged like mushrooms after rain.

Monsters of the same species as the first snake-like creature that just ran out jumped out of the mud mounds one after another. They ran farther away under the cover of the rain curtain.

"Let's find a place to shelter from the rain."

A team of seven people shuttled through the rain curtain. An old man in gorgeous clothes did not hold an umbrella, but all the rain automatically dispersed from his head when it was about to fall. He had mastered the game of "big style".

There was also a man who looked to be in his thirties with a bronze complexion and tough features. The remaining five people were young boys and girls.

In the rain ahead, a creature that looked like a snake or a lizard ran out, as if it was following the trail of this group of people.

It spat out the bloody red snake core, and its green eyes glowed with a strange look.

The boy who was staring at the monster in the front suddenly covered his head and squatted down in discomfort.

The Imperial Badge quickly emerged above his head, and the light curtain formed by the Imperial Badge protected him, delaying his pain a lot.

A silver crescent passed through a distance of dozens of meters, and cut off the monster's head in an instant.

After losing its head, the monster's body was still twitching slightly...

The student who had just covered his head waited until the pain eased before standing up, and asked the old man behind him with lingering fear: "Dean, what is this monster? The monster class in the school doesn't seem to have been taught."

"Snake bewitching, a creature at the bottom of the abyss." The old man wearing a blue star robe and holding a book in his left hand said.

"Abyss!" Hearing that this was a creature from the abyss, the expressions of everyone except the old man changed to varying degrees.

"Sure enough, the seal here has been loosened."

"Snake bewitching is best at bewitching people's hearts, and its ability can cause negative emotions in the heart."

"No wonder..." The student wiped the sweat from his forehead.

At that moment just now, many malicious thoughts emerged in his heart.

Even some behaviors that he himself thought were crazy, and this malicious thought was constantly magnified, and even turned into a whisper in his ear to instigate him.

The old man seemed to see through the student's thoughts, and he said calmly: "It is inevitable that some distracting thoughts appear in the heart. This is the bestial side of human beings. Everyone has it. To give a simple example, you always can't help destroying the snowman after building it. This is your desire for destruction. Sometimes you suddenly step on a bug on the roadside to death. This is the desire to kill..."

"As long as you can control your heart and let your mind control these bad thoughts and don't let it happen, it's right. If you are affected by the snake temptation and put the evil thoughts in your heart into action, you will fall into the trap of the snake temptation. There was a saying in the ancient Eastern country that a gentleman is in his deeds, not in his heart. If he is in his heart, there is no gentleman."

"Dean, can you control all the distracting thoughts in your heart now?"

The student asked curiously.

The old man looked into the distance with deep eyes and shook his head.

"Only saints can integrate knowledge and action."
