Two treasure maps

Chapter 128 Beast Taming Contract

As the night deepened, the moonlight shone through the cracks in the tent, onto Yin Jing's stern face. He frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt, and as he watched Leng Xing rushing over, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of alertness in his heart.

"Tell me, why are you rushing over here to explain?"

Leng Xing frowned slightly, seeming to be somewhat uncomfortable with Yin Jing's questioning. He sighed and spoke slowly: "I told them that Cheng Haoer can tame beasts."

Yin Jing's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he immediately retorted: "No, he just held the zither for me."

Leng Xing was unmoved. He patiently explained, "I know, but you can see that the interior of the canyon is like a huge suction cup. Apart from the six-winged condor, I really don't know any other way to explore the situation inside."

After hearing this, Yin Jing frowned even more tightly. He angrily retorted, "You don't really want to start a business in this mere second-tier heaven, do you? Whether they live or die, what does it have to do with us?"

Leng Xing was silent for a while, then sat opposite the silver mirror and looked at him firmly.

"Although they are only beings of the second heaven, it is not easy for them to practice. Do you know how hard they try to stand at the top? As long as they are upright and reasonable, we should support them."

After hearing this, Yin Jing's voice was full of self-mockery and dissatisfaction, and he said sarcastically: "I am also an upright person, so it makes sense. Instead of supporting them, why don't you support me?"

Leng Xing sighed and said slowly: "Why can't you make sense? We should respect everyone who works hard. We can't discriminate against them just because they were not born at the same level as us."

After hearing this, Yin Jing's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, and he suddenly said: "You are still being tortured lightly. His intention to kill you is obvious, and you are still thinking about taking care of others."

Leng Xing lowered his eyes and replied calmly: "Isn't he unable to kill me for the time being?"

At this time, Guo Lingli was confused as she listened to this. She knew nothing about these complicated political struggles and conspiracies.

She just wants to be a simple person, away from all the troubles and fights.

From their conversation, she seemed to be able to feel that the circle they were in was full of conspiracies and traps, which made her feel extremely uneasy and confused.

"Come on, come on, Xiao Haozi." Yin Jing suddenly turned to Guo Lingli, interrupting her thoughts, "Let me continue teaching you." He pointed at Leng Xing and continued, "Did you hear him say that you told others that you can tame beasts? Come on, analyze it yourself, what is his purpose?"

Guo Lingli stared at the silver mirror in a daze, then nodded blankly.

She tried hard to recall what Leng Xing had just said, trying to find out his purpose.

In the moonlit tent, Guo Lingli sat quietly in a corner, tapping the table lightly with her fingers, as if having a conversation with her thoughts.

There was a thoughtful gleam in her eyes, and she wanted to sort out this complicated situation one by one.

"He wants me to use the six-winged divine eagle to get to the canyon." Guo Lingli spoke slowly, with a hint of certainty in his voice, "After all, the six-winged divine eagle has six wings, so it should be able to resist the suction of the canyon."

Yin Jing, who was sitting opposite her, had a hint of amusement in his eyes. He waved his hand, as if he was a little helpless about this question, then turned to look at Leng Xing and said, "You go and tell him why you are in such a hurry to come here now?"

Guo Lingli frowned slightly. She felt that she had said nothing wrong, so why did Yin Jing seem to doubt her ability to understand?

Leng Xing looked at Guo Lingli and directly stated his purpose: "I want you to control the six-winged divine eagle as much as possible, and take the two of us to the canyon to see what treasures are there, and take the treasures for yourself."

Guo Lingli was stunned after hearing this. She stared at Leng Xing blankly, wondering if she really didn't understand what he meant just now. She turned to the silver mirror and asked curiously, "Do you know what he meant?"

Yin Jing smiled slightly, picked up the snack on the table, put it into his mouth casually, and then said: "When I heard you mention the six-winged divine eagle, I knew he had bad intentions."

Guo Lingli suddenly thought of a possibility. She stared at Leng Xing with a glimmer of inquiry in her eyes: "Have you been wanting to use the six-winged divine eagle for a long time? Do you know how to tame beasts?"

Leng Xing nodded and said bluntly: "It's not that I understand, I understand very well. But this six-winged divine eagle is not among the beasts I can tame."

After hearing this, Guo Lingli's heart was moved, and she said affirmatively: "So my ability to make a contract with it is also due to your contribution."

Leng Xing was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how to explain this complicated question.

He said slowly: "The one who taught you the beast taming technique is the master of these six-winged divine eagles. The reason why it made a contract with you is entirely because of your beast taming technique, not because of your own beast taming ability."

After hearing this, Guo Lingli frowned, and asked in confusion: "What is the difference between the Taming Beast Art and the Taming Beast Art? Isn't it about finding the weakness of the beast and making a contract?"

Yin Jing looked at her confused expression and asked in surprise: "You really don't know?"

Guo Lingli shook his head and asked in confusion: "What should I know?"

Yin Jing sighed and explained, "The beast taming contracts are divided into species and sects. Leng Xing's beast taming skills are ineffective against the six-winged divine eagle because his ancestors did not reach a contract with the ancestors of the six-winged divine eagle.

The ancestors of the person who taught you the beast taming technique must have reached a contract with the ancestors of the six-winged divine eagle. You two are both members of the same sect. This is not the reason why someone’s beast taming technique and magic power are more powerful. "

Under the warm yellow candlelight of the tent, Guo Lingli's face was full of confusion and puzzlement. She blinked her bright eyes, trying to find a clue from Leng Xing's words, but the concept of beast taming and ancestral contract was still an unknown fog to her.

"Taming beasts... does it even involve ancestors? Why do I need to make a contract with my ancestors?" She murmured to herself, her voice revealing a bit of confusion and incomprehension.

Seeing this, Leng Xing sighed softly. He knew that Guo Lingli's doubts could not be solved overnight.

So, he patiently explained: "My ancestors had a special contract with the birds. This is an ancient inheritance that allows the descendants of the birds to serve my ancestors' descendants. However, among these birds, there are no mutant birds like the six-winged condor."

After hearing this, Guo Lingli became even more curious: "Didn't your ancestors only make contracts with birds and not beasts? Could it be that the beast taming techniques for birds and beasts are really different?"

"Yes, the beast taming techniques for birds and beasts are indeed different. This is because their living habits and abilities are very different, so different beast taming techniques are needed to establish contracts with them."

Hearing Leng Xing's affirmative answer, Guo Lingli began to feel uneasy.

She recalled the time when Mo Yan taught her the Art of Taming Animals. At that time, she only knew that this was a magical power that could establish connections with animals, but she didn't expect that there were such complicated tricks hidden in it.

She remembered that Mo Yan once told her that her beast taming technique was also effective against demon cultivators, which naturally included walking beasts. She had also secretly practiced it with the sinful dragon at the bottom of the Red Dragon Pond and had no problems at all.

And now, Leng Xing said that his beast taming technique could form a contract with mutated birds, which made her begin to doubt what kind of beast taming technique she had learned was.
