He stared blankly at Gao Peng, who was peeking out of the car window. He was wearing a yellow jacket, and the collar had accidentally flipped open, revealing the grey down feathers inside. He looked exactly like a Xiao Huang duck from the countryside.
Gao Peng opened the car door and let Xiao Huang in.
In the end, because the threshold of the off-road vehicle was a little high, Goldie clumsily tried to climb up but failed. Instead, it tripped and fell a few times on the ground, and its yellow feather coat was covered in a lot of dust.
"Ga!" Xiao Huang was very angry and kicked the car door twice.
Looking at the dented car door, Gao Peng was speechless. "Don't kick it. If you break it, I won't let you wear clothes anymore!"
Xiao Huang raised his neck and turned his head vigilantly. "Ga!"
Xiao Huang had leveled up by two levels and was now level 16. He was about 1.6 meters tall and could barely reach Gao Peng's shoulder.
His eyes were very big, and his flat lips were slightly upturned. The yellow feather jacket he was wearing was light yellow when he first bought it, but after wearing it for a month, it was already dirty. There was a lot of dust on the feathers, and he looked a little like a duck that was picked up.
Seeing Gao Peng looking at him, Xiao Huang called out in a daze, "Ga!"
After the sound appeared in Gao Peng's mind, it became, "Let's go!"
He stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle roared and drove out of the Gao family's courtyard.
Xiao Huang, who had never experienced such an extraordinary feeling, was dumbfounded. He stuck his head out of the car window and called out excitedly. The jacket on his head was blown off by the wind, revealing his bald head. However, Xiao Huang did not care.
When they arrived at school, Gao Peng opened the car door, and Xiao Huang got out of the front passenger seat in a daze. His face was flushed, and he looked particularly excited. The veins on his neck were bulging, and he swaggered to Gao Peng's feet and hugged Gao Peng's legs with his wings. "I still want to sit here!"
"Next time." Gao Peng calmly pushed Xiao Huang away. "Let's go to bed first."
"Gao Peng?" Suddenly, an uncertain voice came from behind.
Gao Peng turned around and saw Seo Qingzhi looking at him in surprise. Seeing Gao Peng turn around, Seo Qingzhi said in a strange tone, "So it's really you. I thought I was seeing things."
Gao Peng smiled. Behind him, a duckling wearing a yellow feather coat waddled over.
"Is this one of your familiars? This duckling is really … "Seo Qingzhi's eyes lit up when she saw the cute duckling, but when she saw Xiao Huang's bald head and the strange blue pattern on it, she swallowed the rest of her words.
"… How pitiful. He's bald at such a young age," Seo Qingzhi said regretfully.
Gao Peng couldn't help but laugh. He put the hood back on Xiao Huang's head that had been blown off. "Good boy, put the hat back on. It's crooked."
Xiao Huang didn't understand. It raised its head and quacked in confusion. What are these humans talking about? Are they praising me for looking good?
Seo Qingzhi saw Gao Peng teasing the duckling, and she finally saw the other side of Gao Peng.
"Hey, by the way, don't you usually stay at your grandfather's house?"
Gao Peng's face became serious. He lowered his voice and said, "I'm here to experience the hardships of the people … Don't expose my identity."
"Oh, oh …" Seo Qingzhi nodded absentmindedly. She was scared by Gao Peng's serious tone. She only realized that something was wrong after Gao Peng walked away. What bullsh * t hardships of the people!
"Qingzhi, who was that handsome guy just now? Your boyfriend? " After Gao Peng walked away, a tall girl waiting for Seo Qingzhi at the exit of the parking lot teased her.
"How could that be? He's the child of one of my dad's colleagues." Seo Qingzhi replied unhappily, "I think you've been single for too long. Even a pig looks handsome."
"Seo Qingzhi, how dare you complain when I'm concerned about you?" the tall girl retorted.
Xiao Huang wasn't big, so it could sleep in its own room.
Some monster trainers couldn't accept sleeping under the same roof as their familiars. They thought that familiars were like horses for knights and hunting dogs for hunters in ancient times. They all needed to live in a separate house.
Gao Peng didn't think much of it. He had even gotten used to sleeping under the same roof as Da Zi. In fact, staying with his familiars gave him a sense of security.
It was a quiet night.
The next morning, Gao Peng woke up early and took Xiao Huang for a jog by the lake.
"A strong body is what we need to maintain!" Gao Peng said to Xiao Huang with a serious face.
"Look at you, how short are you? Only 1.6 meters! How can that be! You're growing now. You need to exercise more to grow taller. Do you understand? " Gao Peng used to jog with Da Zi and the others. It was his first time taking Xiao Huang for a jog.
Xiao Huang nodded seriously, indicating that it understood.
"Do you see this Jin Lake?" Gao Peng pointed at the lake, which was hundreds of hectares in size.
"Yes!"
"Let's set a small goal and run a lap around it first."
Then, Gao Peng began to lead the way. Xiao Huang's legs swayed quickly, and the tip of its tail wagged as it followed behind Gao Peng. It didn't seem to speed up, but it kept pace with Gao Peng.
After running a lap around the Jin Lake, Gao Peng saw that Xiao Huang was following behind him at a steady pace. Its expression was normal, as if this little distance was no burden to it.
Gao Peng was silent. I underestimated the strength of my familiar. I'm also stupid. Although Xiao Huang looks dumb, it's still a Legendary-tier monster!
"I'll practice for a while. You can play around for a while. Don't go too far," Gao Peng instructed Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang nodded and disappeared into the bushes in the blink of an eye.
Gao Peng stood by the lake and practiced the boxing technique his grandfather had taught him. Every punch and kick was executed methodically. His movements weren't flashy, but they were powerful. Every move made use of several joints and muscles in the body. This was a set of basic fitness boxing techniques. It was quite good for training the body. When his grandfather had taught it to him, he had told him that this boxing technique was only for training the body. It could be used to fight two people, but it couldn't be used to fight monsters.
After practicing the boxing technique twice, Xiao Huang's anxious quacking came from a flower bed. There were also a few mocking laughs.
The sound faintly traveled through the flower bed.
"Look, this duck is so funny. It's obviously bald, but it's still wearing a yellow down jacket. Does it think that it can have feathers? I'm dying of laughter. Hahaha!"
"Pfft, isn't that just deceiving oneself? Whose familiar is this? It looks so funny."
"Hey, damn, this duck has a lot of muscles. It's covered in blue tattoos. Isn't this a delinquent duckling?"
Their voices were very loud. Even though there was a flower bed between them, Gao Peng, who was practicing boxing, could still hear them clearly.
