Chapter 14 (1/2)
The golden calf displayed a certain reticence It did not moo, nor did it nod or shake its head It attentively looked at Chu Feng with a thoughtful look on its face
”I feel like we'd better back off Your pushy persistence will probablyyou the answer you wanted I do reckon this calf is way too odd and eerie for anyone's good,” Zhou Quan said He was speaking froone profound suffering, both mentally and physically, of a trauma that was caused by the calf
”Pollen Catalytic agent,”
These words were vaguely heard from the mouth of the Lin Faraduation ceremony
As he spelt out these words, the golden calf's eyes gloith a sense of agreement It nodded to him as a form of response
It could understand Chu Feng's words, and specifically, those particular words had touched its nerve
Chu Feng was in a bit of a trance He thought that perhaps the so-called strange fruit ; instead, the pollen on soht perhaps be the key to certain things He yielded such a conclusion
Even so, as Chu Feng wanted to probe deeper for more additional information, the calf returned to its usual reticence No responses, no signs of agreereement
”I have once seen a bronze mountain on the Tibetan Plateau There, on the peak of it, was a strange plant Its blossorance even when sh, ht as a feather,” Chu Feng said He wanted to see how the calf ht react to his words
Zhou Quan was in a bit of a trance, too He was quietly sitting beside the calf, 's mouth
Just as Chu Feng had anticipated, his story about the flower and the scent raised the calf into an excited state It inclined forward towards Chu Feng, ardently nodding its head to urge Chu Feng to keep going
Chu Feng was bewildered ”Is that flower that iht He had touched it once before, but apart frohout his body, nothing significant happened
But judging by the calf's enthusiasm, its desire for the blossoms was clearly far more passionate than for that fruit of Zhou Quan's
”There, I also saw a golden vulture, aspoke as he carefully observed the calf's facial expression
The face of this golden calf was as expressive as a hurin that enco's story seeer to kno the story would end
”In our world, neither yaks nor mastiffs could be counted as top prience But those that eue of their own They seeent than humans”
Chu Feng paid close attention to its reaction as he spoke in order to deduce what this calf knew and what it didn't
A sole mentioned the appearance of those otherworldly creature he saw in the Kunlun Mountains
”Their intelligence surfaced before the world had even started to change Even as the world was still the way it was, these beasts had already become invincible and unradually mutates into a completely different one, these creatures will perhaps become more sanctified, es”
The golden calf seemed enthralled It involuntarily nodded its head Obviously, it was an unconscious expression of agree's assumption
The calf stood riveted to the ground It took it a while to collect itself, then it returned to its usual poise and composure It showed no more of its ehts through facial expression
However, Chu Feng had clearly seen the calf's reaction, and that proved some of his initial conjectures
”I think that after our world co to be, perhaps, a preliht before the neorld order establishes? And in this preli carefully worded to describe those he deemed as the unknowns
The pupils of the golden calf drastically constricted Clearly, these words had touched its heart
”You guys risk your lives to come here, one after another This can well nificant than I thought Are you all seeking ways to beco said
At first, Zhou Quan was astounded, then he could not help but begin to ad possessed He marvelled at his ability to draw the outline of a future world solely based on careful observations on details of events happening around him
Now, even Zhou Quan started to get ahold of the trend of things He also began to hts
The way the golden calf looked at Chu Feng seemed a bit more intimate A sense of respect ritten all over its face
It was already past ht The mountains were quiet and serene There had been quite some distance between theer enshrouded in the griht by the beasts and birds of prey
Moonlight flowed like streast the woods
”Is the tree that you found at the bronze mountain summit really that ed to get ahold of it, why didn't youwith you?”
”I didreplied
”Did you actually?” It was only a casually asked question, and Zhou Quan did not expect Chu Feng to give such an answer To hied to leave the place alive in the presence of a olden vulture
At the saed straight at Chu Feng, then it gently rubbed its head against Chu Feng's pal
”Sorry, buddy It's been toosaid with an apologetic smile
However, the golden calf still see with a rather strange look in its eyes In the end, it even stood up on its hind hooves, reaching out one of its fore hooves and pointing it at Chu Feng It had a complicated look on its face that could be both read as exciteret
”What on earth do you actually know? Hurry up and tell us!” Zhou Quan glared at the calf
”Moo!” the calf responded with a single lowing
Zhou Quan was so bitter that he wanted to cuff the calf on the side of its head, but he dared not to
Zhou Quan and Chu Feng walked in front and the golden calf followed It did not leave, and it seemed quite likely that it wanted to follow them all the way down
They alking in the direction of that town called Shunping Zhou Quan's faotten there hours ago, had they not lingered around at the mountains' boundary
”Hey little cow, do you have a name? Since you have decided to loyally follow us, we better call you so other than just baby cow,” Zhou Quan said
Just like that, Zhou Quan, all of a sudden, beca the calf
”Seeing how little you are and how much of a bastard you've proven to be, and plus the fact you are from another world I think the na nae” Zhou Quan exerted hiestion
”Pong!”
Just as everyone would have expected, nothing could ever turn out well between Zhou Quan and the calf Zhou Quan's benevolent effort to naht deserve, but instead he got kicked right in the head
