My Beast Ranch Story

Chapter 18, "Book of Friends"

"Huh?"

The big gourd leaf frog was stunned for a moment and asked all the little gourd leaf frogs to go back first before looking at Jiang Simiao again.

Shi Lai on the side twitched his ears and turned his head to look aside, as if he knew what would happen next. He quickly picked up Bai Linglong, who still wanted to stay here, and walked into the woods to continue picking wild vegetables and fruits.

"My name is Jiang Simiao. I think I can teach you how to expand this plantation."

Jiang Simiao grinned, lifted up the water phoenix eye blue in his hand, and shook it towards it.

In the spring afternoon, there was a gentle breeze, and the leaves rustled in the wind. The sunlight penetrated through the layers of branches and fell on Jiang Simiao's face. In the eyes of the gourd-leaf frog, he seemed to be covered with a layer of gold.

"Quack..."

The gourd-leaf frog looked at Jiang Simiao and was stunned for a moment.

The green phoenix eye blue was held in his hand, Jiang Simiao smiled and asked it again.

Just like when that person looked at him and said exactly the same thing.

"I heard that this is your favorite food. Do you want me to teach you how to speed up their reproduction?"

"This way when you want to eat, you don't have to worry about not having enough."

It was as if I had turned into that little gourd-leaf frog and heard what he said after he was caught trying to eat the water hyacinth he raised.

"Hey, can you hear me? How about we make friends."

When Jiang Simiao shouted to it again, it finally broke free from its memories. Looking at the strange person in front of it, it suppressed the thought of acting coquettishly and quickly squeezed back the tears that were about to come out. replied.

"Crack."

Its huge body slowly and clumsily leaned towards Jiang Simiao. The vines behind it relaxed little by little, and golden sunlight flowed on the leaves.

Jiang Simiao walked up to it and slowly stretched out his hand. Seeing that it didn't show any sign of rejection, he put his hand on it with confidence and smiled happily.

Its skin is not as rough as expected. It feels like fresh leaves. When you are close to it, you can smell the scent of vegetation, which is light and clean.

"Then I will teach you first how to speed up the reproduction of this water hyacinth blue."

"Ah..."

The gourd-leaf frog nodded and looked at Jiang Simiao quietly.

Jiang Simiao took out the shining illustrated book in his hand, and held a water phoenix in his other hand. He approached the river and began to explain this knowledge in a soft voice.

"Ah~"

There was a sudden rustling sound in the trees not far away, and a pair of pointed black cat ears suddenly poked out. A pair of yellow vertical pupils looked furtively at the two people by the river through the sparse branches and leaves. By.

Bai Linglong who was squeezed aside:?

It shook its pink body and squeezed out from the root of the bush. Seeing that the two of them had begun to communicate, it suddenly smiled happily, and a burst of white light slowly bloomed from his body.

When the light dissipated, a pure white figure flashed through the trees and flew towards the pasture.

It was smiling and flying, but suddenly it thought of giving Jiang Simiao some compensation, and its face drooped again, feeling a little distressed.After hesitating for a while, he still turned in the air.

After 20 years, a promise was fulfilled again.

……

By the river, Jiang Simiao slowly described the most suitable breeding method for them based on the illustrated book. The giant gourd-leaf frog listened quietly and glanced at him from time to time.

By the time everything was said and done, the sun had gradually lowered towards the western mountains, and the clouds in the distant sky were smudged with red and orange.

Jiang Simiao sat by the river, leaning on the giant gourd leaf frog. He turned his head and saw its vines slowly spreading its life dust in the water.

Coupled with the series of operations done before, in the expectant eyes of the gourd-leaf frog, the original single blue water hyacinth pulled out a new stem at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the days to come, it will separate from the mother's body , become a new individual.

"Cuck!"

After seeing that Jiang Simiao's teaching was really successful, the big gourd leaf frog screamed excitedly, and water droplets squeezed out from around its big eyes due to pleasure.

"For your race, breeding water hyacinths is the most convenient thing. You can completely use the surrounding environment and your own moves to reproduce water hyacinths in a special budding method."

"But be sure to remember that if you raise too many water hyacinths, they will start to bloom. You must get rid of them before the flowers appear purple." Jiang Simiao turned over and stood up from the ground. , patted its body encouragingly, and reminded it again.

"Ah~"

Seeing it nod, Jiang Simiao looked at the emerald green in the river, and then had an idea. He ran to the river and picked up the blue phoenix eye from the water.

He turned around, waved it in front of the gourd leaf frog, and asked with a smile: "Can you take this back to me? I want to keep it in my family's pasture."

"Crack."

The big gourd leaf frog was stunned and nodded quickly, as if he was afraid that he didn't take enough, so he fished two more plants from the river with vines and stuffed them into Jiang Simiao's arms.

"Okay, okay, that's enough. I can't take back too much."

Jiang Simiao waved his hands repeatedly, somewhat dumbfounded: "It's already very late, I have to go back, thank you for your things, big guy."

"Woo... Gua~"

The big gourd-leaf frog whined lowly, but still nodded. The light behind it lit up, and a strong vine erupted to cover the wooden foot basin filled with fish as a final gift.

"Ah..."

It glanced at Jiang Simiao with some reluctance. Its big blue eyes were still clear, but it still slowly turned around and walked into the bushes.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the leaves suddenly scattered in the air, and their figures melted into the green sea like water droplets. When the wind stopped and the leaves fell, everything disappeared without a trace.

While looking at its figure in a daze, Jiang Simiao suddenly woke up, suddenly remembered what he had forgotten, and took a few steps forward in a panic, waving his hands and shouting, for fear that it would not hear this farewell in the end.

"Goodbye! Big gourd leaf frog!"

"Nice to meet you!"

The bushes trembled slightly, like its echo. Jiang Simiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly relaxed and smiled, and retracted his waving hand.

But at this moment, the illustration book that had been silent to the gourd leaf frog suddenly reacted.

The illustrated book was once again spread out in front of Jiang Simiao's eyes, and the pages were flipped one by one. A touch of green belonging to the gourd-leaf frog spread like a leaf, as if its memories were blooming.

Starting from an egg, a small green tadpole hatched out. It slowly grew and changed into a young gourd leaf frog.I made an agreement with a person by looking at each other by the lake, then swallowed a mysterious spiritual plant and became huge, and finally it was frozen in the scene where it said goodbye to a person.

When everything was distributed, all the pictures poured into the page like fog. When the recording was completed, the illustrated book dissipated again, leaving Jiang Simiao stunned for a long time.

It wasn't until the last photoelectric dissipated in the air that he slowly came back to his senses and looked in the direction where the giant gourd leaf frog disappeared.

"My Book of Friends?"

At this moment, Shi Lai in the forest immediately walked out, empty-handed. The wild vegetables and berries he had picked had already been returned to the pasture. It was not known how long it had been waiting for Jiang Simiao here.

"Wow! Shi Lai!" Jiang Simiao just turned his head and saw Shi Lai walking towards him. He didn't know if he was infected by the crybaby of the big gourd leaf frog. His eyes felt a little sore. Just rushed over.

"The fluffy one is coming! You've been waiting for me for a long time, ah~ I'm sorry! Then come and give me a hug!"

Just when he was about to hug Shi Lai, Shi Lai suddenly stretched out a paw, pressed the soft flesh pad against Jiang Simiao's head, and then turned his head away in anger.

"Wow, Shi Lai, you are so cruel!" Jiang Simiao took a step back pretending to be hurt, but when he saw its little ears that kept shaking, he suddenly felt that he knew the truth and smiled evilly.

"Wait...you don't know, you are jealous~"

"Meow!"

"Hahaha, Shi Lai actually started to get jealous hahahaha~"

"Meow!!"
