My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 130: Spiritual Pet Care and Tracking Thunderbird (4K -in-)

A new strange story has recently appeared in the Secret Realm of Birds.

In places where birds once gathered, they seemed to cry out in fear when they saw green plants.

Some birds may even faint from excessive panic.

While the beastmasters were happily picking up corpses, they couldn't help but become curious.

How did this strange phenomenon come about?
Is there some strange virus sweeping across the entire bird secret realm?

But the key point is that someone has conducted a special investigation and found that the number of those bird species has not changed significantly.

In other words, this strange phenomenon does not essentially harm the lives of birds.

Soon, in just a few days, the mysterious phenomenon of the bird secret realm became a hot topic in the real world.

A strange phenomenon called Green Grass Ghost Story has spread on the Internet.

Zhou Lu didn't know that his and Hua Huo's behavior of sweeping through the bird habitat had become one of the countless mysterious stories in the secret realm.

He is in a little trouble now.

Looking at the dense flock of birds in the distance, Zhou Lu glanced speechlessly at Hua Huo who was rubbing his hands beside him.

"So, you just threw Benben in there?"

Hanabi complained: [They stole my fries.]
Just as Zhou Lu, who had just been tired from the journey, was preparing to take a rest.

Then Hanabi quickly took out various instruments from the snail case.

Xiao Caocao is really too hardworking.

Sometimes they set up tents, sometimes they built fires.

Zhou Lu originally wanted to help, but as soon as he got the tools, Hua Huo grabbed them with vines and snatched them away.

Ok……

I always feel that any beastmaster will become lazy after having a pet like Huo Huo.

Hanabi is actually not very good at cooking.

But noble spirit beast technology has developed a variety of exquisite and delicious pre-prepared foods.

If you eat these things in the city, you will curse.

But in the secret wilderness, this is a delicacy from heaven!

However, just when Hua Huo had fried a pot of French fries and was about to bring them to Zhou Lu to taste, a flock of white birds flew over.

In just a few seconds, Hanabi's hands were empty.

How could Xiao Caocao endure such humiliation?
Just throw the stupid guy out with an egg.

Then, it became what it is now.

Bai Lu'ou didn't seem to understand what sarcasm was.

After developing a desire to feed Benben, more and more white gulls began to flock to Benben.

Countless birds were circling in the air, forming a bird storm in front of Zhou Lu.

After using the Beast Taming Card to recall Benben in the center of the flock of birds, Bai Luou, who had lost his target, was stunned for a long time.

But soon, they seemed to have found a new target and flew away in groups towards the east.

Zhou Lu released the Beast Taming Card and summoned Benben again.

Benben looked a little embarrassed at this moment.

Its body was covered with bird droppings and feathers, and if you didn't know, you would think it had just been born by a bird.

The shell is also covered with scratches from pecking.

Fortunately, BenBen itself is strong enough and these scratches can be healed quickly.

Hanabi crawled to Benben's side, rubbed the leaves and apologized to Benben embarrassedly.

Benben didn't care too much about this matter.

The damage would be much less than if Hanabi used it as a hammer to hit a nail.

Zhou Lu didn't mind Benben's current condition. He fetched a basin of clean water and started to wash Benben.

Benben is quite easy to wash.

And I also like taking baths.

When the brush stroked across its shell, Zhou Lu could clearly feel its joy.

At this moment Zhou Lu finally understood why many beast masters liked to wash and care for their pets personally.

The emotions in the Beast Taming Contract are mutual.

The happy mood of the spirit pet will also affect the beastmaster.

When Benben is in a good mood, Zhou Lu will also be in a good mood.

This immediately made Zhou Lu full of energy again.

But he suddenly felt a sense of resentment...

When they looked up, Hanabi was standing in front of them, the seal eyes on her hat staring at them intently.

Although it couldn't speak, Zhou Lu could definitely understand what it meant.

Zhou Lu paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you want to wash too? Hanabi."

Huahuo immediately showed a happy expression: (*^▽^*) Yes, yes!

The joyful emotions surged like a tide.

Zhou Lu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but smile.

Come to think of it, Hanabi seems to be this happy every day.

With such a spiritual pet by my side, it is hard to be in a bad mood.

Come to think of it, since making the contract with Hanabi, Zhou Lu has rarely been in a bad mood.

Even when we are in a bad situation, we do it happily and confidently.

While Zhou Lu was still in a daze, Hua Huo had already stretched out her vines and rolled up Benben in Zhou Lu's arms.

[Hey, hey! I haven’t finished washing yet!]
Benben just opened his mouth to protest, and then he felt himself flying.

Pfft!
Hanabi's throw was very accurate and directly threw Benben into the pot full of water.

Well... forget it, just treat it as a bath.

That’s what Benben originally thought.

Then it quickly discovered a problem: why was it feeling hotter and hotter?
[Fuck! Hanabi you bastard! You threw me into the cooking pot!!!]
Hua Huo didn't hear Benben's wailing at all. After throwing away the troublesome guy, Xiao Caocao jumped directly into Zhou Lu's arms while lifting her leaf skirt.

It flapped its leaves and tugged at the brush in Zhou Lu's hand with its vines.

[Hurry up! Hurry up!]
Hanabi urged anxiously.

Zhou Lu was helpless when he saw Hua Huo's cute and urging look.

Fortunately, he had considered the current situation when he bought the brush, so he had a tool specifically for cleaning and caring for fireworks.

In fact, Xiaocaocao is quite clean.

It had been through many hardships and had to sleep in the open air, but there wasn't much dust on it.

However, washing and care are not just for cleaning.

When Zhou Lu's brush passed over the leaves of the fireworks, the little grass began to twist its body comfortably, like a blade of grass swaying in the wind.

Zhou Lu patted the flower of the firefly unhappily: "Don't move."

Hanabi immediately became obedient and stopped moving.

But after a few minutes, it couldn't help it again.

Half an hour later, Zhou Lu fell silent as he looked at Benben sinking to the bottom of the pot.

The boiling water gurgled and spurted out hot steam.

While being placed in the spring water to cool down, Benben was still cursing.

Fortunately, this disaster is nothing to it.

I'm used to it... I'm used to it.

Benben thought so.

After a hearty meal and a night's rest, Zhou Lu and his party set off in high spirits.

At this time, they were very close to the place where the Thunderbird was last found.

Considering the presence of the Kaituo Army and the Yangui members, Zhou Lu was extremely cautious as he moved forward.

Usually, Huo Huo would use the branches to explore the edge of the attack range, and Zhou Lu would continue to move forward only after he was sure that there were no hidden enemies.

Zhou Lu has already put on Hua Huo's vine armor.

With the activation of [Plant Mimicry], the man and the grass hid among the woods and moved towards their destination.

Following the mountain path opened up by humans, Zhou Lu came to the edge of a cliff. A few pine and cypress trees stood proudly on the cliff.

There is a protruding platform on the vertical mountain wall.

She is worthy of being the wife of the great thunderbird. Their aesthetic sense in nesting is so similar.

Naturally, there would be no traces of thunderbirds here.

However, Zhou Lu found some traces of fighting.

This means that there was a battle here before.

I don't know whether it is the pioneer army or the returning geese.

Zhou Lu asked Hua Huo to take out the Ghost Heart Purple Mushroom.

After following the vines to the platform, he scattered the spores of the ghost heart purple mushroom.

This time Zhou Lu planted a lot of purple mushrooms at one time.

When the target being tracked is not nearby, the Ghost Heart Purple Mushroom will not automatically burst.

But this does not mean that it has lost its tracking ability.

As long as the time from when the other party left was not too far away, Zhou Lu could find the traces and direction of the other party's departure by crushing the Ghost Heart Purple Mushroom.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lu crushed a mushroom in his hand without hesitation.

Purple spores flew in the air.

Because there was no target to record the breath within the transmission range, they formed a faint trace in the air under the influence of the wind.

A phantom of a thunderbird made of purple spores flew away towards the east.

With a breeze, the spores completely dissipated.

"That's the direction." Zhou Lu took out a telescope and looked into the distance.

The secret realm of birds is so huge that you can’t see the end at a glance.

Zhou Lu suddenly thought that when he reached the third level, he might need to get a flying or riding pet.

Otherwise, I would have to search for materials on foot in the future, which would be a waste of time.

Although the various teleportation nodes in the secret realm can teleport to each other, you still need to travel a long distance if you want to reach your destination.

Hua Huo seemed to sense Zhou Lu's thoughts.

It patted its back with leaves, signaling Zhou Lu to climb up.

Little Caocao is going to set off with his master on his back!

How do you, a grass, distinguish between the front and the back?
When Zhou Lu saw Hua Huo's behavior, he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

He ultimately rejected Hanabi's offer.

There's no way around it. Being carried by a blade of grass just feels weird no matter how you think about it.

Of course, the most important point is that Hua Huo is not much faster than Zhou Lu.

Zhou Lu obviously sped up the following journey.

Although at the moment, Thunderbird is in pretty good shape.

Having been caught by humans once, it can be said to be very cautious now.

And they will not retaliate in anger if provoked by humans.

As long as someone discovers it, it will attack immediately without hesitation, without giving them any chance to fight.

This can be seen from the phantom of the thunder bird drawn by the Ghost Heart Purple Mushroom.

At least from the virtual image, Zhou Lu did not find any signs of injury on the Thunderbird.

They tracked the mushroom for three consecutive days. When Zhou Lu saw the cap of the purple ghost mushroom light up, he immediately became nervous.

If the cap of the purple mushroom glows, it means that the object to be tracked is nearby.

This means that the pioneer army's tracking team is also nearby.

Zhou Lu’s main purpose this time was to take the Thunderbird away.

He didn't want to have a direct conflict with these professionals.

Fireworks is only at the second level now.

Zhou Lu lay dormant with the fireworks.

Hanabi also knew that her master's target was nearby, so she whispered to the surrounding plants.

It quickly got the relevant information.

Little Grass is now able to express the most basic information using the juice of the vines.

It quickly drew the information it obtained on Benben's body.

At Hua Huo's reminder, Zhou Lu took a look at the pattern on Benben's body.

Hanabi drew two stickmen in total, one with the number 3 written next to it and the other with the number 2 written next to it.

Two groups of people, one group of three and one group of two.

Zhou Lu immediately understood what Hua Huo wanted to express.

"What about the Thunderbirds? Do they know the location?"

Hanabi heard Zhou Lu's question and Ivy scratched her hat.

Zhou Lu thought it didn't ask, and then he saw Hua Huo using vines to write two words crookedly on Ben Ben's body:

Here.

Then draw an arrow.

Hua Huo held up Ben Ben and used it as a signpost, walking in front of Zhou Lu and leading the way carefully.

Although he knew the approximate location of nearby enemies through the surrounding plants, Zhou Lu still couldn't help feeling a little frightened along the way.

He was not quite sure about the strength of the two groups of people involved in the capture of the Thunderbird.

But it is certain that no one will be weaker than the second level.

You know, the Thunderbird is only at level three.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lu couldn't help but feel fortunate that the Thunderbird's final landing point was in a forest.

This is the home ground of fireworks.

The reports from countless plants allowed Hua Huo to clearly know the enemy's approximate location and trajectory.

Coupled with the reconnaissance of the scattered branches, Zhou Lu did not encounter any enemy along the way.

"Hua Huo." After taking a few steps forward, Zhou Lu took out the feather of the Great Thunderbird and stuffed it on the vine of Hua Huo, "Lift it up, don't let the Thunderbird think we are hostile."

The feathers that the Great Thunderbird gave to Zhou Lu have special meaning in their clan.

As long as the feathers are seen, it means that the person coming is someone that the Great Thunderbird absolutely trusts.

When this group of people are captured, the first thing they peck off is this feather.

Now that the Great Thunderbird has handed it over to herself, it is also the result of the trust that Ye Qingyu has gained after helping it find its child.

Hanabi pinned the feather on her hat and continued to move forward carefully.

Soon, Zhou Lu saw a pair of bright blue eyes in the darkness.

His eyes blinked and his gaze fell on the feathers on Hanabi's head.

It's Thunderbird!

Perhaps because of her husband An Anyu, the thunderbird did not leave immediately, but stood on the branch waiting for Zhou Lu to come over.

Only at this time did Zhou Lu see the other person's image clearly.

This is a bird that looks similar to the great thrush, but is much smaller than the great thrush.

It was not injured, but there was a hint of fatigue in its eyes.

Obviously, it was very tired during this period of time in order to escape from those people's pursuit.

It was precisely because of this that even though Zhou Lu took out the safety feathers of its husband, the Thunderbird still did not dare to believe the human in front of it.

God knows what kind of human scheme this is.

Until it saw Benben on Hanabi's tail.

Benben felt the gaze of Thunderbird, sighed and said:

[Follow him and don't make a sound. We will take you to a safe place and reunite you with your husband.]
When Thunderbird heard Benben's words, a light flashed in his tired eyes.

It is trusting and stupid.

Because this is a token of love given to it by her husband.

It thought it was its husband's illegitimate child and fought with him.
