Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 9 Essence of Life
"Wang-"

The white puppy barked, rushed over quickly, picked up the pheasant in its big mouth, turned around and ran into the forest, coming and going without a trace, at an incredibly fast speed.

After finishing its meal in the forest, the white greyhound reappeared and looked at Jiang Yue eagerly.

"Uh-huh-huh-"

Jiang Yue threw out another pheasant and waved to the white spaniel.

Wang Wang Wang --

The white puppy came running here, looked at Jiang Yue for a while, then ran back to the forest with the pheasant in its mouth to eat.

In this way, Jiang Yue fed the pheasants one by one and gradually got closer to the white spaniel.

The white greyhound started by picking up prey from the forest to eat, and now it is getting closer and closer, until the fifth pheasant, the white greyhound is willing to eat from in front of Jiang Yue, which means that it has trust in Jiang Yue.

"Will you follow me?"

Jiang Yue took a few steps closer, and the white spaniel immediately stopped eating and looked at Jiang Yue vigilantly.

"Follow me and you'll have meat for every meal."

Jiang Yue pointed at the chicken feathers all over the ground and the two musk deer he was carrying: "Not only pheasants, you can also eat musk deer."

"I see your personality. If someone feeds you, you eat. If no one feeds you, you steal. If you can't steal, you rob. If you really can't rob, you're willing to hunt for yourself."

Jiang Yue analyzed: "Why don't you just follow me? I'll feed you every meal, how nice it would be. Besides, I'll go in and out of the forest every day, so you'll have some freedom. What do you think?"

As he spoke, Jiang Yue walked towards the white puppy.

Upon hearing this, the white dog's eyes showed human-like hesitation and thought, as if it could really understand human words.

Jiang Yue is right.

This white fine dog was previously raised by a hunter in the county and was very familiar with humans. However, during one expedition into the mountains, the hunter died and the white fine dog luckily survived. After that, it wandered in the mountains for more than a year. Although its fur was shiny and glossy due to the food it had, it had no support from its owner and lacked confidence, so it had to steal food every day.

The white puppy thought for a while, then exposed its belly to Jiang Yue, wagged its tail happily, and let Jiang Yue stroke it.

"Good dog, good dog."

Jiang Yue squatted down and interacted with the white puppy for a while, his hands were covered with saliva from being licked.

Then he had an idea and bit his finger.

Waves of golden light emerged, mixed with blood, and gathered into a contract character, which fell on the white dog. The contract was completed, and Jiang Yue felt that he and the white dog had an indescribable sense of intimacy.

【Time + 1 years】

【Time: 1.51 years】

When the words on the panel appeared, Jiang Yue was overjoyed.

Will I also earn time if the contract is successful?
Just one year passed!
How many days have they been in the mountains? It probably won't be long before he can save up another three years.

If yes
"Wang Wang-"

The white spaniel barked a few times, then cheered and jumped around Jiang Yue, wagging its tail. From time to time, it stood on its hind legs and licked Jiang Yue's cheeks with its tongue, showing great affection.

Jiang Yue then realized that despite his height of 1.7 meters, the big white dog could actually use its paws to support its shoulders when it stood up, and could lick his face with its tongue.

"so tall?!"

Jiang Yue was stunned.

This white dog looks slender, but actually it has thick bones and is covered with tendon meat. It is quite large, reaching the limit for a normal dog.

It's really lucky to be able to contract such a fierce dog!

"Haha, from now on I'll call you Xiaotian!"

Jiang Yue was so happy that he simply gave the white dog a special name. In order to avoid mentioning the name of the divine dog Xiaotian, Jiang Yue changed the word "Xiao" to "Xiao".

"Wang Wang-"

Xiaotian was very happy. He circled around Jiang Yue, shaking his tail and making dust all over the ground.

[Pet: Xiaotian]

[Category: Ordinary Greyhound]

[Talent: keen sense of smell, excellent speed, amazing endurance]

[Life Essence: 0]

[You can consume 10 life essences to evolve it into an "Ancient Dog"]

[Ancient Xi Dog: The ancient Xi Dog has a thicker skeleton, a more robust body, and a higher intelligence]

Jiang Yue couldn't help but look happy when he saw the words appearing on the panel. Pets can evolve, which means that this white hound has unlimited potential and can probably accompany him for a long, long time.

"That's right, Xiaotian, let's go!"

Jiang Yue greeted him and threw a little squirrel to Xiaotian.

Woof——

Xiaotian shouted excitedly and ate the little squirrel in just a few bites. Then he stretched out his limbs and quickly caught up with Jiang Yue, following behind him excitedly.

More than half an hour later, Jiang Yue brought Xiaotian to the Stinky Vine Cave and dealt with the only two remaining musk deer.

Jiang Yue hunted a lot of pheasants today, but stuffed them all into Xiaotian's mouth.

呲——

Jiang Yue used a hatchet to cut open the musk deer's neck, put the musk deer's blood into a wooden barrel, scooped up half a bucket of Lingtan water, took off his clothes, and jumped directly into the barrel.

The medicinal liquid in the wooden barrel quickly boiled, steam spread out, and waves of warm currents penetrated into Jiang Yue's skin through his pores, making Jiang Yue's whole body red, like a cooked prawn.

Xiaotian watched nervously from the side, afraid that something might happen to Jiang Yue.

Half an hour later, the boiling liquid calmed down and became extremely turbid. Those were the impurities in Jiang Yue's body.

"Even if I have more time, I can't give up my daily training."

Jiang Yue thought to himself.

Without the accumulation of small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without the accumulation of small streams, one cannot form a river.

Time, oh, time, no amount of money can buy time. It is because of the magic of time that Jiang Yue understands more and more how precious time is.

After Jiang Yue sighed, he took action and poured the used stinky medicine liquid on the roots of the stinky fart vine outside. Then he took the hatchet and started to deal with the corpses of the two musk deer.

Jiang Yue planned to sell the musk deer skin and four hooves, so he carefully placed them on the bluestone after cutting them off.

Keep the good meat such as hind leg meat, tenderloin, and brisket for yourself.

As for the internal organs and offal, they were all fed to Xiaotian.

Xiaotian is a dog, so he didn't think the offal was fishy and smelly. Instead, he thought it was extremely delicious. He opened his mouth wide and ate it quickly. In a short while, he had finished eating all the offal of the two musk deer.

As for what Jiang Yue didn't let it eat, although it was greedy, it refused to eat a single bite.

Prompts came from the panel at the same time.

[Life Essence +1]

[Life Essence: 1]

"Good dog, good dog."

Jiang Yue laughed and stroked Xiaotian's neck with his hand: "But your appetite is too big. In the future, I will have to go into the mountains every day to support you."

So many musk deer viscera and a lot of pheasants only provided a little essence of life.

Jiang Yue estimated that Xiaotian would become a big meat eater in the future.

"Wang Wang."

Xiaotian yelled twice and licked Jiang Yue's hands until they were covered with saliva.

"Let's go, I'll take you to get to know your home."

Jiang Yue called out to Xiaotian, who seemed to understand and followed Jiang Yue out of the Stinky Vine Cave.

The man and the dog walked as fast as the wind in the forest. In more than half an hour, they got out of the mountain, passed Wandouao, and returned to their home in Funiu Village.

They stepped onto the bluestone slab in front of the door, pushed open the gate, and the man and the dog crossed the threshold.

"Xiaotian, this is our home."

Jiang Yue smiled.

Xiaotian stretched his neck and looked around, his nostrils twitching. After sniffing for a while, Xiaotian happily ran away in the yard, urinating everywhere to mark his presence.

There happened to be a doghouse in the yard that was built by Jiang Yue's father. Before Jiang Yue gave any order, Xiaotian got into the doghouse very familiarly and went in and out happily.

As a result, after Ling Xiaotian recognized it as home, it became obviously happier and more obedient to Jiang Yue.

If you think about it carefully, it's normal.

Xiaotian is probably a hunting dog with an owner. He has had contact with humans before. Dogs have a very strong sense of tribe, territory, or nature. Even hunting dogs have the gene for guarding the house. Now Jiang Yue takes Xiaotian to recognize his home. In Xiaotian's opinion, this is the real acceptance of Jiang Yue.
