"....Chastity unwavering?"
"You probably mean unwavering loyalty!"
Hearing the black long-haired 36D Fox Lady speak, Master Fuli slowly typed a question mark, twitched his mouth, and sarcastically commented on the clam spirit.
Stop saying these weird, flirty phrases; you still have much to learn about human language!
"Oh..."
The black long-haired Fox Lady replied as if reciting, continued forward, pushing the items she held into view.
"Pearls?"
Master Fuli gazed at the exquisite, round object in front, glowing faintly in the moonlight, and immediately understood what the black long-haired Fox Lady was presenting.
The black long-haired Fox Lady shook her head, not understanding what Master Fuli meant by pearls, but knowing that in human society, this should be valuable.
She had seen humans wearing them upstream, saying the rounder, the more valuable.
"Clams produce pearls, don't they start with dozens from one clam? You only have three?"
Master Fuli looked at the three pearls with a slightly suspicious expression, glancing at the clam spirit.
The black long-haired Fox Lady shivered all over, nodding quickly like a pecking chick, indicating she was absolutely not lying.
"I don't believe it. Open your shell and let me see!" Master Fuli said he didn't believe it, but his attention wasn't really on the pearls, but on the beautiful colorful clam itself.
Pearls are just something to powder and drink with water.
Compared to those transparent pearls, Ansheng was actually more curious about what was going on with this clam.
It should be classified as a [Species Specialized Spirit Beast], with the ability of metamorphic transformation.
What kind of evolutionary route would allow a clam to have such a strange ability?
"Oh..."
The colorful beautiful clam's external tentacles briefly considered and agreed, opening a crack in its cracked shell for Master Fuli to see.
Nothing left...
Inside the shell, there really were no pearls left.
"Huh?"
Master Fuli looked inside, seeing nothing unusual, just like an oyster, with a plump, bouncy flesh inside, with two scallops attached to the shell, controlling its opening and closing.
"Open your mouth, ah~"
Master Fuli thought for a moment and said to the clam spirit.
"Ah——"
The white fleshy mass inside the clam unfolded, like a blooming flower, revealing a pink stamen.
"Hmm.... "
Master Fuli nodded slightly, roughly understanding the beautiful colorful clam's evolved feeding method.
Its feeding method should be like a Venus flytrap, slowly digesting and absorbing its prey by rolling it into its mouth rather than being a filter feeder.
No wonder...
The wish list states that putting the beautiful colorful clam in the river is a disaster.
Isn't it just a disaster?
It can even transform into a human to lure them, and fortunately, this place is an uninhabited area aside from some passing animals that drink here without human activity, otherwise the beautiful colorful clam would be a man-eating clam.
"Close the shell; I'll take you to a new home later."
Master Fuli returned to his normal form, hopping around to close the clam shell, making it retract its mouth.
"Whimpering～"
Master Fuli glanced at the wish list, showing a hint of satisfaction.
[Physique: 181]
[Wisdom: 5]
[Wish Power: 29]
Master Fuli's eight tails were in place, now just needing to bathe and change, lying in a comfortable position to enjoy the feeling brought by wish power accumulation.
The comfort brought by wish power addition.
Made Master Fuli long for it more than any massage.
"Master Fuli..."
Just as Master Fuli was lost in thought, Tang Lian and the Dao Lang Sheep arrived.
"This is...the spirit beast Little Grey Wolf mentioned?" Tang Lian looked at the nearly three-meter-tall, over-one-meter-wide, estimated eight-hundred-plus-pound clam lying on the ground, showing an odd expression and said:
"This thing...doesn't look like our Northern clam; we only have one type of Sardine Toothless Clam; this might be an alien species...."
In the Northern, the clam shells are mud yellow, while this clam's body is colorful, with a smooth and clean shell.
"Who cares what species it belongs to; the clam found within Xia Country belongs to Xia Country." Master Fuli dismissively waved his hand.
"Later, notify Principal Li Wenkang that I've found a good treasure for him, and remember to write an eight-hundred-word commendation for Ah Qing's graduation profile."
Tang Lian looked at the beautiful colorful clam.
The Fox Lady, a mimicry of the colorful beautiful clam's clam pearls, also looked at Tang Lian and Dao Lang Sheep, the three having a silent moment.
"I'll go fetch the car...."
Looking at the clam, Tang Lian took out an injector from his hip pouch and injected the Spirit Particle Potion into the clam.
Master Fuli kicked the clam shell, cracking it all over, and it needed to be sent to the hospital immediately.
On the way to fetch the car, Tang Lian reported the events on the grassland to the higher-ups, requesting a helicopter from the Security Bureau.
"Aren't you going back?"
After retrieving the pickup truck, Tang Lian gave the key to Master Fuli and sat beside the clam. Master Fuli looked at the key, asking curiously:
"Can't you just toss it into the tail bed?"
"Uh....."
Tang Lian and Dao Lang Sheep's faces were awkward, unwilling to mention Master Fuli's driving skills.
"The shell's cracked; moving it recklessly might trigger unforeseen incidents. Maybe we should wait for the aquatic creature expert to arrive!"
Tang Lian caressed the clam shell, but the clam opened up and clamped Tang Lian once.
Tang Lian took a sharp breath, looking at the black long-haired Fox Lady the clam manifested.
"I...surrender to the master, listen to him." The Fox Lady with an umbilical cord attached to her navel solemnly stated.
"Alright then! You guys wait here, I need to get back to the scenic area before nine!"
Ansheng gently nodded, picked up the grey wolf squatting beside Dao Lang Sheep, placed it in the passenger seat.
"Don't join the fun; most doggies have a fear of heights...."
Ansheng said to the grey wolf leader, stomping the gas pedal to the floor.
This time, with no one else in the car, Ansheng pushed the speed up over two hundred.
The raptor without an electronic limiter, modified, can reach a top speed of 294 km/h.
"Howling——"
Amid the miserable wails of the grey wolf leader, the pickup truck sped across the grassland, returning to the Spring Mountain Grassland in under twenty minutes.
Ansheng glanced at the time, now 9:13 PM, past the concert's end by a dozen minutes.
And from here, the Spring Mountain Grassland scenic area was still several kilometers away.
"Housekeeper Lin, please look after them; I'll find another chance to come out at midnight."
"I need to go home now."
"Oh, please deliver this to Lin Ying....." Master Fuli gave one of the three pearls to Lin Bingyun, asking her to pass it on to Lin Ying when she had time.
"Fu..."
Lin Bingyun was momentarily stunned, looked at the jewel in her hand, then at Master Fuli's white shadow running off, finally managing to say after much delay:
"Miss Lin just called, wanting to know where Master Fuli plans to play tomorrow; she's arriving in the Northern tonight...."
