Chapter 139 - 139 Chapter 134 Miss Wang Wants to be a Beast Tamer i (2/2)

She was a smart and decisive girl.

Young as she was, once she had an idea, she was able to implement it diligently.

“I’m not too familiar with being a Beast Tamer, but I believe that with your intelligence and perseverance, as long as it’s something you want to do, you’ll definitely succeed. Have you decided on what kind of pet you want to tame?”

“I want to start with raising a cat. It’s the only animal I can afford right now.”

“How about I go to the mountains and catch a wolf cub for you? I’m worried that a house cat’s growth potential might be a bit limited.”

Qin Niu said enthusiastically.

“Thank you, Alt Niu! A wolf needs to eat meat every day, and I’m a bit worried I won’t be able to afford it! Besides, catching a wolf cub is very dangerous, and I wouldn’t want you to take that risk.”

She declined.

“That’s fine too! You can start with a cat then. Do you know how to use a Contractual Talisman?”

“I’ve never used or bought one before. I read in a book that you just need to prick your fingertip, drop the blood on the activation zone, and that should trigger the talisman. I’m planning to go to the city tomorrow to buy a Contractual Talisman; do you know which store has good talismans?”

“I’ll give you one! This is a Low-grade Contract Charm, used for subduing pets with weak resistance. Otherwise, the contract might fail. If you’re raising a cat, you can feed it for a while, and when it’s familiar with you, then you can use the Contract Charm to establish a servant-master relationship with it.”

Qin Niu had a bunch of Low-grade Contract Charms.

Offering one to a beautiful lady didn’t even make him blink.

“I can’t let you give away something so valuable for free. Isn’t it one tael of silver per charm?”

She reached for the silver money on her waist.

Knowing the price so well, she must have looked into it beforehand.

“Just take it! If you really want to give something, wait until you’ve become a Beast Tamer and can earn money, then you can pay me back.”

Qin Niu placed the talisman in her hands.

Her touch was soft and gentle, and they both felt a bit unusual.

“Thanks! Ah, I owe you so much now; I’m not sure when I’ll be able to pay it all back!”

“I hope you never pay it back in a lifetime!”

Qin Niu joked with a grin.

That was the boldest thing he’d ever said.

She was quick-witted and immediately understood the implication, her pretty face involuntarily blushing.

“Alright, I’m going to head back now! I’ll try to see if I can contract my house cat. Seeing you improve by leaps and bounds every day, I should work hard too.”

She waved her hand and said goodbye to Qin Niu.

As for Qin Niu’s implicit offer of himself, she neither refused nor agreed.

Girls are generally shy, and being well-read from a young age, she knew the importance of propriety and decency. It wasn’t something she could easily agree to—usually, it would involve Qin Niu formally proposing, followed by her coyly accepting.

Moreover, with Tang Caixian from the neighboring village actively pursuing Qin Niu and having already sent a matchmaker to propose, it was even less likely for her to agree readily.

The next day, as soon as Qin Niu got up early in the morning, he sensed some activity in the broken water jar.

By now, the main structure of his house was basically complete, and the construction of walls, flowerbeds, and fish ponds was underway. It was estimated that it would all be finished in about ten more days.

The little turtle had been motionless all this while, but now that there was a strange noise, it was likely that its evolution was complete.

He was very much looking forward to this.

If insects could evolve special abilities after consuming Banyan Tree Blood, the little turtle’s prolonged evolution should make it even stronger.

Once the fish pond was ready, keeping it there would be perfect.
