Chapter 194 Daman
Luo Mei looked at him, "Do you know whose it is?"
"I forgot what the owner's name was, but I remember Daman. He was a very capable big dog who often went hunting with the owner at the base. But I haven't seen him for a while."
Looking at the big dog's inexplicably sad, wet black eyes, Yu Yao finally took a step and walked towards it.
She crouched down and stroked the mutated German Shepherd's large head, communicating with it briefly using the Beast Taming Technique.
How did you get injured? Why are you here?
The big dog looked at Yu Yao, its eyes welling up with tears.
There's a mission... to evoke sympathy... don't worry about me...
Yu Yao narrowed her eyes and casually touched its back, which looked thick and full but was actually thin and bony.
He took out a chicken leg and fed it to it, with a spirit beast pill mixed in with it.
Spirit Beast Pills not only allow spirit beasts to level up, but also prioritize providing energy to heal spirit beasts when they are injured.
Da Man will feel better soon after eating it.
Watching Da Man slowly nibble on the chicken leg, Yu Yao stood up and looked around.
Luo Mei asked curiously, "What's wrong with A Yao?"
"Find its owner, this little dog is dying."
"what?"
Just as Ji Yan and Ye Ziang approached, they heard a hurried male voice coming from not far away.
"Da Man! Da Man, what are you doing here? Do you know how worried I was about you?"
As the sound drew closer, a man in his twenties ran to Da Man's side, examining its body with a tense expression.
A hint of fear flashed in the wet eyes of the mutated German Shepherd, nicknamed "Big Barbarian," but it still wagged its tail helplessly at the man.
It was too badly injured; the spirit beast pill hadn't even taken effect yet, and it didn't even have the strength to stand up.
All it could do was wag its tail gently and listen to the man's constant expressions of worry and fear.
After seemingly dotingly reprimanding Da Man, the man stood up and said gratefully to Yu Yao, "Miss, with resources so scarce right now, you still fed my Da Man chicken legs. That's too much trouble. How about this, I'll give you some crystal cores in return, okay?"
"no need."
Yu Yao turned her gaze to Da Man, who was staring at her, and then said to Luo Mei and the other two, "Shall we go?"
"Ah."
Luo Mei responded.
Ye Zi'ang asked, "What happened to Da Man? How did he get so badly injured?"
The man sighed, "He got injured while hunting with me the other day. This silly dog, probably afraid of upsetting me, has secretly run away many times."
Then, he looked at Yu Yao and said, "Miss, Da Man hasn't eaten anything for a long time, and I really want to thank you. Besides, it can't just eat the chicken leg you gave it for nothing; I have to return the favor."
"No need. I want to feed it; it's none of your business."
"That won't do! Or could you tell me your name and address? I'll bring you a gift to thank you later."
"Need not!"
As Yu Yao spoke, she turned and left, completely ignoring the man's attempts to entangle her.
He wanted to chase after him, but Ji Yan's gaze fixed on him as he turned back, making him stand still.
Once Ji Yan looked away, a hint of resentment and malice flashed in his eyes. When he looked back at Da Man, his gaze became even colder and more disdainful.
......
A few minutes later, he grabbed Da Man by one of its hind legs and dragged it to a deserted corner.
After tightly binding several leather ropes around its mouth, it swung its blood-stained leather whip heavily at the barbarian.
Da Man's mouth was bound with a leather rope, so he couldn't make a sound or move.
It could only tremble as its owner lashed its body with a whip, raising clumps of fur and patches of blood.
"Useless! Useless! Didn't I tell you to act pitiful and endearing? You can't even win over a young girl! What use are you to me!"
"You got injured like this just from going hunting, and I have to support this good-for-nothing! If only you were cute and lovable! But you're just big and clumsy! What girl would like you! Useless thing, you should die!"
With each curse the man uttered, he would lash out with his whip, leaving the barbarian's body mangled and bloodied.
The giant barbarian's dark eyes grew increasingly moist and lifeless as he looked at his former master, filled only with despair.
However, thanks to the spirit beast pill, Da Man's life was saved.
Seeing that it was still alive, the man felt unsatisfied. He picked up a large, angular rock from the side and smashed it down heavily on the barbarian's head.
The man's body flew backward suddenly without anyone touching him, crashing into the wall on the other side.
He was smashed into a pulp and died on the spot.
The giant beast was too weak to lift its head, but it still struggled to turn its eyes and look at Yu Yao, who was slowly walking towards it.
The large tail, already completely soaked with blood, swayed with difficulty for a moment.
Yu Yao squatted down beside it and peeled off the leather rope that had left a deep bloody mark on Da Man's mouth, layer by layer.
Then he took out a beast-catching ring and asked Da Man.
"Want to come with me?"
The giant beast's tail swung with effort once more, and the Beast Taming Technique responded to it.
Cannot...die...
The mutated Great Barbarian's intelligence is roughly equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child; he is very clever and has already understood the difference between life and death.
Knowing it wouldn't survive, its response was that it couldn't go with her.
It’s not that I don’t want to.
Dewdrops gathered at Yu Yao's fingertips.
"I'll ask you one more time, do you want to come with me?"
think......
The gentle and beautiful girl was the first ray of light I saw in Da Man's bleak and dreary life.
Yu Yao nodded in satisfaction, used the dew to heal Da Man's wounds, and then put the animal-catching ring around Da Man's neck.
"From now on, you are my dog."
"Woof~"
The revitalized Daman barked happily, quickly stretched its limbs to stand up, and wagged its tail as it circled around Yu Yao.
Luo Mei and Ji Yanye stood aside, watching Da Man excitedly frolic to his heart's content.
Luo Mei stepped forward and gently patted Da Man's big dog head.
"Daman's quality is really great. That thing just now was so clueless! It's so skinny!"
If this were before the apocalypse, with proper training, it would definitely be a top-tier show dog.
Although Da Man wasn't as enthusiastic towards her as he was towards Yu Yao, she was still quite docile and obedient.
She stood obediently in place, letting her stroke her head, her wet, dark eyes squinting comfortably.
Ye Ziang glanced at the blood cake on the wall and gritted his teeth, cursing, "During the monitoring period, this guy put on such a good act, he practically worshipped the Great Barbarian! Turns out it was all a facade!"
Luo Mei said, "Before, Da Man could hunt for him, so he might have been willing to pretend. But Da Man got injured and lost his value, so he could only be abandoned."
"Scum!" Ye Ziang cursed angrily, his face full of rage.
Ji Yan looked at him and said, "Alright, go and arrange for people to clean up. I'll take them back first."
"Ah."
......
Back home, Yu Yao quickly released the black jade and ginseng treasure that had been eagerly waiting in her spatial storage.
The two little ones circled around the big guy with curiosity.
Da Man also stared curiously at the two little noses beside him, wanting to lift up and grab Mo Yu.
I was afraid of damaging it.
Want to smell the ginseng? But afraid of scaring it.
Luo Mei watched the three interacting with great interest, her fox-like eyes filled with tenderness.
......
Da Man is a level 2 speed mutant beast. It is very large and stands more than one meter tall when standing on all fours.
It has good qualities, but its previous owner didn't know how to care for it and almost ruined it.
Fortunately, Da Man proved himself worthy.
But... why would you name a perfectly good girl like Da Man?
Really are!
Irresponsible!
Yu Yao was speechless, but Da Man was already a two-year-old adult dog, and his name was already so familiar that it would be difficult to change.
That's it... let's leave it at that!
