Beast Tamer: The pet is just to help me build a bond

Chapter 190: Introverted Orochimaru [Subscription Request]

After getting off the high-speed train, I called my mother Xie Yan.

"Mom, I've already gotten off the high-speed train..."

When Xie Yan heard her son's voice, a bright smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Got it. You go home first. I'll go buy some groceries and make a big meal tonight to reward our national champion!"

"Mom is the best!"

Chen Wen praised his mother, then asked cautiously, "Mom, are you and Dad afraid of snakes?"

"snake?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Snake meat is very nutritious!"

The first question was asked by Xie Yan, and the second sigh was made by Chen Hai who came close to her.

Xie Yan glared at Chen Hai fiercely and whispered, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Dad, you're here too..."

Chen Wen was sweating profusely, and quickly explained: "It's like this, didn't I go to Xichuan University to contract a pet? The one I contracted is the Sky-Swallowing Snake, um... a black snake about two meters long, with a dark blue head, and it looks... a bit mysterious and majestic to me."

The Sky-Swallowing Snake is definitely not cute. The color of its body is not complicated, and its fine snake scales reflect the metallic luster. Its head is often held high, and its golden vertical pupils are not evil, so it is no problem to say that it is a bit mysterious and majestic.

"Mysterious Majesty?"

Listening to Chen Wen's description, Chen Hai and Xie Yan had no idea about it.

After a while, Chen's mother concluded: "Wenwen, as long as you like it, I'll buy some more vegetables and welcome the little snake to become a member of our family. By the way, what's its name?"

Chen Wen replied: "I'm still thinking about it. I'll discuss it with it later and see which one it likes."

"Well, that's it..."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Wen took a taxi back home.

He summoned Po first.

As soon as Abao came out, he ran to the kitchen with his short legs, opened the refrigerator and ate the jade bamboo inside.

Chen Wen also took a bottle of primary nutrient solution, drank a sip and said, "Eat slowly, why are you hungry?"

Po didn't reply and continued chewing the bamboo.

Chen Wen didn't care and said, "A Bao, I found a new partner for you."

"Hey!"

Po said he knew it a long time ago.

Chen Wen was speechless and asked, "You know?"

"嘤嘤!"

After listening to A Bao's answer, Chen Wen realized that he had forgotten that the beast-controlling space was connected. If he put the Sky-Swallowing Snake in, he would meet A Bao.

Looking at A-Bao chewing bamboo, Chen Wen said, "Are you afraid that it will steal your food?"

Po didn't answer, but his action of burying his head in chewing bamboo was the best answer.

Chen Wen rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "Don't worry, you will definitely have enough food. When did I ever starve you?"

"Ugh?!"

Hearing what Chen Wen said, A Bao immediately looked up and stared at Chen Wen with wide eyes.

"I promise!" Chen Wen said helplessly.

This is not just the time when he just signed the contract with Abao. Now his system points have exceeded 10 million. Not to mention raising two pets, he can have no problem raising three or four.

After hearing Chen Wen's assurance, A Bao took out the jade bamboo he had taken a few bites of and put the rest back in the refrigerator.

Shaking his head, Chen Wen summoned out the Sky-Swallowing Snake.

"Come out, buddy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a white light flashed between his eyebrows, and the Sky-Swallowing Snake appeared directly on the dining table.

The Sky-Swallowing Snake came out of the Beast Taming Space and immediately scanned the surrounding environment cautiously.

Noticing that it was a little nervous, Chen Wen said gently: "This is my home. I will stay here during this period. There is no danger... Now let me introduce you to a new friend. This is Po."

"Hey!"

Po greeted it in a friendly manner, saying that as long as the person didn't snatch food from it, he would be a good friend.

"Moo!"

The Sky-Swallowing Snake looked at Po, opened its mouth and made a sound like an elephant's roar.

Then, the bear and the snake actually started interacting directly with each other.

"嘤嘤嘤~"

"Moo~!"

"..."

The sounds made by the bear and the snake were obviously different, but Chen Wen, who was able to understand their words, discovered that they could communicate without any obstacles.

You should know that different monsters speak different languages. Even Po and Xiong Er, who are both bear pets, cannot understand each other and can only discern each other's thoughts through their eyes and behavior.

"Maybe it's a bond?"

After a moment of surprise, Chen Wen guessed the reason why the bear and the snake could communicate without any hindrance.

Chen Wen did not interrupt their conversation, but listened quietly and handed drinks and snacks to the bear and the snake.

By listening to their conversation, Chen Wen discovered that the Sky-Swallowing Snake was a bit introverted. Usually, it would reply to Po after he said a few words.

The way he eats is also different from Po.

When Abao drinks or eats food, he likes to taste the flavor, so he drinks it and the primary nutrient solution one sip at a time, and tastes the slices of meat on the plate one piece at a time.

The Sky-Swallowing Snake opened its mouth widely and drank half a bottle of primary nutrient solution. It never touched the bottle again. As for the slices of meat which did not have much energy, it did not even touch them.

"A bit quiet and reserved, very purposeful..."

Chen Wen suddenly guessed that the Sky-Swallowing Snake had been coiled on the black stone not because it liked the soil, but because it simply did not want to move.

After they chatted for a while, Chen Wen finally offered to join the tea party.

"Okay, we've talked enough, let's get down to business! Now, let's come up with a name for the Sky-Swallowing Snake, so that it can be the only one among all the Sky-Swallowing Snakes."

"嘤嘤!"

"Moo!"

Po was eager to try, and the Sky-Swallowing Snake nodded calmly.

Seeing this, Chen Wen said, "I'll go first. How about Xiaoqing?"

"嘤嘤!"

The Sky-Swallowing Snake didn't say anything, but Po expressed his objection.

It felt that the only green thing on the Sky-Swallowing Snake was its head, and Xiaoqing didn't sound that powerful.

Chen Wen thought about it and suggested again: "How about Mo Yuan? His color is like ink and his strength is like the abyss."

"嘤嘤!"

Po waved his hand again and said that the Sky-Swallowing Snake's head was green, not completely black.

Chen Wen was amused and said, "Why don't you come? The Sky-Swallowing Snake has no objection."

A Bao held his head and thought for a long time before he looked at the Sky-Swallowing Snake.

"Yingying?"

Chen Wen immediately retorted: "Big Snake, what kind of name is this? It has no connotation at all!"

"Moo!"

However, the Sky-Swallowing Snake, which had been silent all this time, suddenly nodded.

It likes "big" and "snake" represents its race, so it thinks it's good.

After receiving the affirmation from the Sky-Swallowing Snake, Po hummed proudly.

When it comes to naming, Abao is the professional.

As a beastmaster, Chen Wen doesn't want to lose the right to name his pet.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Wen said to the Sky-Swallowing Snake, "How about calling him Orochimaru? When you meet a slightly larger snake outside, you can call him Orochimaru. Adding the word 'Maru' can highlight your uniqueness."

The Sky-Swallowing Snake's golden eyes rolled, then it nodded.

Seeing this, Chen Wen laughed and said, "Okay, from now on you are Orochimaru!"

This name was not chosen randomly.

As for the Sky-Swallowing Snake, Chen Wen plans to train it into a long-range mage.

Chen Wen named it "Orochimaru" because he hoped it could master various attribute skills like Orochimaru.

After the name was chosen, Chen Wen took Orochimaru on a tour of the house and introduced various objects to him, with Po also helping out.

The prerequisite for using bonds to share the aura, skills, and talents of a pet is to have a good relationship with the pet.

So Chen Wen introduced various items while observing Orochimaru, hoping to find out what Orochimaru likes.

However, to Chen Wen's disappointment, Orochimaru was really a bit introverted.

Listening to Chen Wen and Po's introductions, Orochimaru's eyes swept over the furniture and appliances one by one, but he said nothing and showed no emotion at all.

Soon, Chen Hai and Xie Yan returned home carrying large and small bags.

Both Chen Hai and Xie Yan welcomed Orochimaru, and Xie Yan even stewed an old hen for him.

After the meal started, Orochimaru opened his mouth wide and covered the earthen jar with it.

There seemed to be suction in its mouth, and the old hen and chicken soup in the earthenware jar were instantly sucked into its body.

Then, Orochimaru instantly turned into "Orochimaru" with flat sides and a bulge in the middle.

Xie Yan opened her mouth wide, and after a long while she said, "Why is this kid eating so fast..."

Chen Hai was very calm and said, "Snakes are all like this."

Seeing that Orochimaru was an eyesore on the dining table, Chen Wen had no choice but to move it to the living room.

After turning on the TV for Orochimaru to watch, Chen Wen returned to the restaurant again.

Unlike Po, Orochimaru failed to win the love of Chen's father and mother.

Of course, I don’t hate it either.

Chen Wen also felt that this was normal.

In fact, if Dad and Mom showed any fear or displeasure, Chen Wen would take Orochimaru back to the Beast Taming Space.

After all, he usually spends a lot of time with Orochimaru, but not much time with his parents at home.
