"Fo You, go over there and investigate."
"Understood."
"Fo You, chop down a few trees and build a pontoon bridge."
"Leave it to me."
"Fo You, I'm a little thirsty."
"Do you want some honey green tea? I specially prepared it before we set off. "
"I'll make do. Give me the kettle."
The team members had always thought that Fo You was a well-deserved commander because of his Vajra skills. Jiang Zhibei and Du Yu were very excited. It was a great honor to be led by such a noble person. If they could serve Little Master Buddha well, they could avoid being bullied by other warriors in the future.
However, Xia Fan, a skinny guy who was said to have a nose sharper than a dog, had been directing Fo You along the way. Even the task of serving tea and water was left to Fo You.
What was even more strange was that Fo You accepted it calmly. He opened a path in the mountains and built a bridge in the rivers. He did all the hard work by himself.
"Let us share some of Brother Fo You's work. He seems to be very tired from all the work. " Jiang Zhibei and Du Yu volunteered. They really couldn't bear to see Xia Fan let a Vajra warrior, who claimed to be a god, cut down trees.
"It's okay. Fo You has better stamina than you," Xia Fan said indifferently.
"Brother Fo You, we've already walked so far. Should we hide here and build a shelter or something?" Du Yu and Jiang Zhibei carefully asked for Fo You's opinion. In their minds, Fo You was still the backbone of the team.
"You guys are so annoying. Why don't you let Xia Fan decide this kind of thing?" Fo You said ungratefully.
"Uh …"
Jiang Zhibei and Du Yu had an illusion that their worldview had been turned upside down. Fo You, who clearly had a dominating combat strength, was willing to listen to Xia Fan's command. Didn't they say that strength was the most important? Why did it become that whose nose was sharper had the final say?
Le Jiajia remained silent throughout the journey. Today, she was valiant and formidable-looking. Her green tight-fitting combat suit accentuated her slender and graceful figure. Her oval face was as exquisite as a work of art. She was simply the representative of all beauties in the world. However, behind this beautiful face, there was an indifference that was difficult to approach.
There was only one chance for intimate contact. Xia Fan had read his father's letter and shed tears. In the small bathroom, Le Jiajia magically appeared. She sat on the edge of the bathtub and swung her slender legs. "I heard someone crying next door, so I came to take a look."
"Tsk, you don't even know how to lie. How can there be wind in the room?"
The day he read his father's letter was the day Xia Fan was most vulnerable in his life. It was also on that day that Le Jiajia, for some reason, suddenly felt sympathy for him. She followed Xia Fan's crying and found him. On that special day, at that special time, they both put down their disguises and faced each other sincerely for a few minutes. As time passed, they both put on their masks again.
99.99% of the time, Xia Fan was not weak. He was the descendant of Fiend Blade Tianyi. He was extraordinarily intelligent, knowledgeable, and calm. Even Little Buddha was willing to work for him without asking for a reason.
Le Jiajia was the same. 99.99% of the time, she didn't have any sympathy. As someone with the bloodline of the Devil King, Le Jiajia had always been incompatible with the world. She was always alone in a corner, silent, and didn't open her heart to anyone.
If they had to blame something, they could only blame themselves for being too stubborn. It was rare to see Xia Fan cry, and it was also rare to see Le Jiajia sympathize with him. Most of the time, they did not need anyone's sympathy or help. They could live on like the most tenacious weeds.
"Let's take a break."
"Fo You, come with me."
After Xia Fan issued the order, he took Fo You away. Jiang Zhibei and Du Yu whispered to each other. In their eyes, Fo You was an indomitable God-level warrior. He walked like the wind, and when he stood on the side of the road, even the senior warriors would take the initiative to bow to him. However, Fo You was Xia Fan's follower, which really touched them.
"Xia Fan is so handsome. Look at how he gently waved his forearm and said, Fo You, come with me. Then Boss Fo You followed him. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, who would believe it?"
"Sigh, it seems that we were wrong to flatter Fo You. We should be flattering Xia Fan."
Le Jiajia listened to Jiang Zhibei and Du Yu's whisper and fanned herself with her hands. Looking at Xia Fan's slightly thin back, she gradually remembered that hot afternoon. She curled up in the corner of the room with the curtains closed. Even during the day, it was as dark as night. She curled up in the corner and heard the suppressed sobbing next door. That voice reminded Le Jiajia of her father.
Her father was a strong man. He married her mother, who was considered a witch. Since then, he was kicked out of the family and received the cold words of the world. His best friends gradually left him.
Even though it was unfair, her father had always been optimistic. He took care of the family and her mother, protecting Le Jiajia and her mother from harm. If anyone showed contempt for Le Jiajia, her father would disregard everything and stand in front of Le Jiajia to fight with them. The figure was somewhat thin, but it was exceptionally tall.
On the day of her grandfather's funeral, Le Jiajia ran into her father hiding in the basement and crying. Only then did she know that her father had attended her grandfather's funeral. However, because his marriage was not blessed by the family, he was not allowed to wear mourning clothes. He was not even qualified to pick up a handful of soil and sprinkle it on her grandfather's coffin.
From then on, Le Jiajia understood that no matter how strong a person was, they would cry.
So on that hot afternoon, when Le Jiajia heard a suppressed but bone-deep sobbing sound, she could not help but think of her father. She could not help but use her ability to travel through space to go to Xia Fan's room and witness what happened.
Although it was the first time she met Xia Fan, she instantly let go of the distance between them. Xia Fan, a stranger, had a special temperament. First, he did not seem to know Le Jiajia and did not know her identity as a witch. Second, he liked to smile and seemed easy to talk to.
However, the past was the past. Xia Fan was strong and would not cry again. Le Jiajia also stayed in her corner, where she would not allow strangers to enter.
After walking for a distance, Xia Fan looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he said to Fu You, "I think I already know what the noise is."
"What are you doing? If you know, just say it. Why are you being so mysterious?" Fu You muttered.
Xia Fan smiled and reached out to part the weeds that were taller than a man. He saw a snow-white female leopard lying behind the weeds. She had just given birth, and two furry little lives were wriggling under her belly, greedily sucking on her flesh.
"Be careful!"
Fu You exclaimed and wanted to stop Xia Fan. The female leopard was strong and more than two meters long. Her teeth and claws were extraordinarily sharp, and her body was emitting a strange light. She was definitely not an ordinary beast and might be very dangerous.
However, what Fu You saw was the female leopard bowing her head deeply to Xia Fan and crawling devoutly, like a well-trained pug greeting its master. Even the two newborn cubs stopped sucking on their mother's flesh and crawled gently, their small bodies shivering.
"They … are kowtowing to you!?" Fu You was stunned.
Xia Fan squatted down and caressed the female leopard with his hand. He picked up the two cubs and held them in his arms. He put a finger into the cubs' mouths, and the cubs licked his finger with their pink tongues to show their goodwill. It was a scene of human and beast coexisting in harmony.
Fu You was amazed. "This size, this energy fluctuation, these teeth … I bet that the level of this female leopard is no lower than the lightning owl that sent us to Hidden Demon City. How did you do it? Why are high-level beasts kowtowing to you? "
Xia Fan thought for a moment. "It should have something to do with the awakening caused by the demonic sound. I seem to have activated a kind of Telepathic Transmission ability."
"Telepathic Transmission?" It was the first time Fu You had heard of this ability, and he quickly blinked his eyes.
Xia Fan said, "I learned how to control beasts from Grandpa Fisherman, but controlling beasts is a technical skill. I can only control low-level creatures like mice, sparrows, small fish in the water, and so on."
"But Telepathic Transmission is different. I seem to have been installed with a set of beasts' radar. The messy sounds in my ears are from the nearby beasts. If I want to, I can establish a spiritual connection with them, and it's not impossible to completely control them."
Xia Fan said as he drew a diagram on the ground with a branch. The reason why he heard so many strange sounds was that Telepathic Transmission needed to locate the beast he wanted to control before he could further establish a link.
Fu You squatted down and looked at the diagram Xia Fan had drawn. He touched his chin with his right hand and said, "I understand. The sound is your brain scanning the surroundings like a radar. But how did you suddenly understand this?"
Xia Fan smiled and gently patted the leopard's head. "It's a pure coincidence. When we came to this jungle, she was about to give birth, so the voice that appeared in my mind was particularly gentle and fragile. It was almost begging me not to hurt her. You know, high-level beasts understand human nature."
"So I became very curious and paid attention to this voice. I felt the pain when she was giving birth, as well as her strong love after giving birth. Coupled with the weak sounds made by the two little ones, it's a long story. Anyway, I sneaked into the leopard's mind when she was weak and giving birth, and figured out that I could control her."
Fu You was stunned at first, and then he became excited. "If that's the case, you can also control the flying beasts of those guys who are hunting us? Force them to descend into my attack range? "
Xia Fan thought for a moment. "Although I'm not very familiar with it, I should be able to do it."
Fu You was overjoyed. "This is a very powerful ability! Great! I don't have to worry about being beaten up by those guys flying in the sky anymore. We are brothers. You are responsible for getting them down for me, and leave the rest to me. "
As Fu You spoke, he rubbed his palms together. This hunting test was very unfair. The hunters were flying in the sky, while Xia Fan and Fu You could only squat on the ground and be beaten. Now that Xia Fan had unearthed the ability to control beasts, he could avoid being bullied by those guys.
Xia Fan frowned. "It's not bad to be able to control beasts, but it seems that I've caused some trouble."
Fu You was stunned. "What trouble could you have?"
Xia Fan looked around. "Not all beasts listen to me. There is a very powerful guy in this jungle. After he sensed my presence, he reacted very violently and seemed to want to kill me."
PS: I haven't updated it in the past few days because I have a dry socket.
To put it simply, the wound became infected after tooth extraction. A metal scraper was needed to scrape off the rotten flesh on the tooth socket and then rinse it with iodophor.
