Chapter 344: Chapter 331: Is He a Beast Tar?
“We’re here,” Wu Chang suddenly said, looking in the direction below.
Yaobao was still cheerfully walking through the air.
Ever since its energy value increased and it knew it wouldn’t run out of energy and fall from the sky anyti soon, it had taken a liking to the feeling of walking in the sky.
“Stop, stop, stop, we’re already here!” Qiao Sang had to pat Yaobao on the back and said.
“Ya!” Yaobao ca to a sudden halt.
“Is this a cetery?” Qiao Sang turned her head to look at the ground below and hesitated.
“Yeah,” Wu Chang said apologetically. “It’s always been here, never venturing out. No matter what I say, it just doesn’t want to go anywhere else. I can’t help it.”
“I understand, social anxiety,” Qiao Sang said.
In the midst of conversation, they had already reached the ground.
It had to be said that the feeling of looking down from the sky and actually being inside a cetery were quite different.
It was now dusk, and the xenon lamps hung on both sides, emitting a white light tinged with yellow.
Whoever managed the cetery must have had peculiar ideas, considering that ceteries already had a spooky vibe and yet they preferred to use these low-color-temperature, yellowish lights.
A cold breeze blew by, and Qiao Sang couldn’t help but wrap her arms around herself in her school uniform.
“Ya…”
Yaobao tensed up, looking around with a vigilant expression.
“Don’t worry, there are no ghosts here,” Qiao Sang said soothingly, petting its fur.
Although Yaobao had experienced a terrifying escape room previously and beco braver in creepy and spooky atmospheres, it wasn’t to the extent where it could smile in such an environnt.
“Ya…”
With the touch of its own Beast Tar, Yaobao’s body gradually relaxed.
“Xun Xun!” Right at that mont, Xiao Xunbao suddenly appeared, making a ghostly face and hanging upside down in front of Yaobao.
“Ya!”
Startled, Yaobao shivered and slapped fiercely with its paw.
“Xun!”
Xiao Xunbao scread as it was smacked to the ground, rolling several tis.
Qiao Sang: “…”
So this is what a troublemaker is like… Qiao Sang picked up Xiao Xunbao with a heavy heart.
“Xun!”
“Xun Xun!”
Xiao Xunbao cried loudly in Qiao Sang’s arms, big tears rolling down, while it pointed an accusing paw at Yaobao.
It was just playing around! How could it smack with such a big paw!
“Ya!”
Yaobao threw its head back, snorted through its nose, and showed a displeased face.
This was the consequence of scaring it!
“Xun Xun!”
Burying its head in Qiao Sang’s chest, Xiao Xunbao cried even louder.
Looking at this scene, Wu Chang paused before saying, “Your Fla Listening Dog and Treasure-seeking Demon seem very spirited…”
There was no need for such forced praise… Just as Qiao Sang was about to speak, the lights around them began to flicker, as if the electrical circuit was unstable.
Xiao Xunbao stopped crying.
“Ya…”
Yaobao, which had relaxed because of Xiao Xunbao’s antics, instantly tensed up again.
In the flickering light, a middle-aged man with glasses, slightly curly hair, and a scholarly face appeared next to a tombstone. Under the lighting, his appearance seed sowhat eerie.
“Holy shit!”
“Ya Ya!”
Qiao Sang and Yaobao took a large, synchronized leap backward in fright.
“Xun…”
Xiao Xunbao had an expression as if it couldn’t bear to watch.
Their own Beast Tar and Big Brother Yaobao are so timid…
“Uncle Zhang!” Wu Chang exclaid in surprise at the middle-aged man.
As he spoke, the xenon lamp also regained its illumination at this mont.
“Yaobao…”
Yaobao relaxed.
All of a sudden, it locked eyes with Xiao Xunbao.
Yaobao’s body initially stiffened, then it puffed out its chest, striving to maintain the appearance of the usual big brother.
I was scared to death… After confirming that the other party was indeed a living person, Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief and walked over pretending nothing had happened. She asked curiously, “Is this your uncle?”
“He is Uncle Zhang, the one I told you about who’s really nice to
and wanted to introduce to you,” Wu Chang said.
Qiao Sang glanced at the approaching middle-aged man and asked in a low voice, “Why is your uncle coming here so late at night?”
Normally, regular people visit their relatives or clean graves in the morning or afternoon when there’s sunlight. Who would co to visit at night?
Wu Chang paused, then shook his head: “I don’t know.”
By this ti, the middle-aged man had already co over.
“Wu Chang, you’re really here.” Zhang Rongtang smiled and said, “I made so food waiting for you, but you didn’t co ho. I thought you might be here, so I ca to check.”
After saying that, he turned his gaze toward the young girl beside him.
When he saw the Spectral-type Pet in her arms, Zhang Rongtang’s eyes flickered for a mont, then he asked, “And who might this be?”
“This is Qiao Sang, she ca here for the competition,” Wu Chang introduced.
Zhang Rongtang of course knew that these past two days, many students from other Beast Taming High Schools had co to town to compete.
He just didn’t expect that Wu Chang had made friends with a kid from another school so quickly, and even brought her here…
Qiao Sang politely greeted, “Hello, Uncle.”
“Hello,” Wu Chang said with a smile. “You’re a really pretty girl. Uncle has cooked so food, would you like to join us for a al?”
“No need, I have eaten already,” Qiao Sang declined.
“Yaobao?”
Yaobao walked over from behind, looking perplexedly at its own Beast Tar.
Eaten already?
How co it didn’t know about that?
Zhang Rongtang watched as the red and white pet beast appeared, his pupils contracting sharply. He originally wanted to say sothing, but then his eyes quickly turned to the Spectral-type Pet. He paused, maintaining his smile, and said, “Then I won’t disturb you anymore. Wu Chang, co ho early, or the food won’t taste good anymore.”
“Okay, Uncle Zhang.” Wu Chang nodded.
After Zhang Rongtang left, Qiao Sang, looking at his retreating figure as small as a sesa seed, remarked, “Your uncle really is good to you.”
From what Wu Chang had just said, it wasn’t hard to tell that the uncle probably wasn’t his relative.
A person who’s neither kin nor relative cooked a al, and just because the other party was late coming ho, he ca to the cetery to find soone… Wait a minute… Qiao Sang suddenly thought of sothing and asked, “Didn’t you bring your mobile phone?”
“I did.” Wu Chang pulled out his phone from his pocket.
“Didn’t he call you?” Qiao Sang continued.
Wu Chang paused, took a look at his phone, and shook his head: “No.”
Qiao Sang raised an eyebrow.
Normally, shouldn’t one make a phone call first?
“Maybe Uncle Zhang didn’t have his mobile phone with him,” Wu Chang suggested, picking up on what Qiao Sang was getting at. “He usually doesn’t carry it, and sotis I can’t reach him at all.”
Qiao Sang didn’t say anything more.
Initially, this uncle was just a sideshow. She was here to check out the pet beast that could supposedly multiply soone’s luck.
If it started as a guess, the words Wu Chang chatted about in the sky confird her speculation.
The two arrived in front of a tombstone.
Wu Chang lowered his voice toward the surrounding air and called out, “Lucky! Lucky!”
All around was silent, without a stir.
Qiao Sang stood in front of the tombstone, looking at the spot where she had been scared into stopping, and suddenly realized that the position where the uncle had been standing was exactly where she was now.
She suddenly asked a question out of the blue:
“That Uncle Zhang, is he a Beast Tar?”
