Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Duck’s Happy Day
Meanwhile,
As he took a closer look at the Run Run Duck by the frying pan, Chen Yuan noticed several shallow scars on its body, as if it had been hurt by some sharp weapon.
Squinting his eyes, Chen Yuan asked, “Who did you fight with?”
Hearing this, Run Run Duck immediately lifted its head. Its originally calm, round face became instantly furious, accompanied by a burst of grumbling.
Just this morning, a despicable guy snatched away the Spirit Fish it painstakingly caught!!!
Chen Yuan fell silent for a moment.
Case closed.
He finally understood why the Gray Feathered Hunting Eagle had scratches on it.
Beside him, Cola was filled with righteous indignation, baring its fierce appearance and howling, aggressively indicating its intent to help its friend get revenge.
“Quack quack quack~”
Seeing Cola’s intense reaction, Run Run Duck was greatly moved.
What a good friend duck~
Chen Yuan looked at this pair of friends who had known each other for less than half an hour and stroked his chin: “Although the Gray Feathered Hunting Eagle has aerial advantages, it probably isn’t a match for the two of them combined.”
Having been a Beastmaster for some time, Chen Yuan increasingly appreciated the innate advantage of flying.
As long as it can fly, it can engage in limitless hit-and-run tactics, able to escape even if it can’t win.
Moments later,
The small fried fish in the pan had been completely swept clean by the two little fellows.
“Quack?”
Run Run Duck tilted its head, looking a bit confused. It then carefully searched the frying pan, and upon not finding any fried fish, displayed a disappointed look.
“Aww…”
Cola slumped on the ground, letting out a series of sighs.
Chen Yuan glared fiercely at the two little fellows: “If you want to eat fish, catch it yourself!”
He still had to busy himself with fishing for Spirit Fish.
Cola instinctively glanced at the calm and clear surface of the lake and shook its head quickly.
“Quack.”
Seeing its friend’s reaction, Run Run Duck confidently patted its chest, slightly tilted its rear, with its fluffy hairstyle bouncing like jelly.
Ducky I can catch fish!
The next moment,
Run Run Duck jumped into Mingyu Lake, splashing water everywhere, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Chen Yuan leaned over to Cola’s ear and whispered: “I have a task for you.”
“Aww?”
Cola’s triangular ears perked up, its eyes gleaming, and its body instinctively straightened.
“Become true friends with it, then find a way to lure it to our farm,” Chen Yuan said.
“Aww~”
Cola nodded thoughtfully, then let out an excited howl, decisively accepting this duty.
Leave it to me!
…
Half an hour later,
Suddenly, ripples appeared on the tranquil surface of the lake, causing Cola to abruptly raise its head, its vivid blue eyes staring ahead—Run Run Duck emerged from the water, soaking wet, with a peculiar-looking fish clamped in its beak.
Once ashore, Run Run Duck smoothed down its fluffy hairstyle, then glanced at its reflection in the lake until it nodded in satisfaction.
“Quack quack quack.”
Run Run Duck placed the strange fish in front of Chen Yuan.
Looking down at the sluggish, wave-patterned fish on the verge of death, Chen Yuan smiled, “Leave it to me.”
[First collection of Wave Pattern Salmon, Source Point +1]
[Name: Wave Pattern Salmon
Level: Level 1 Spirit Fish]
Good good good!
Run Run Duck, right? I’ll remember your contribution.
Chen Yuan ended the brief and glorious life of the Wave Pattern Salmon, then cleaned it up and put it in the frying pan.
The sizzling sound of frying, akin to heavenly music, continuously echoed in the ears of the two little creatures. They stood guard by the pan, watching intently as the Wave Pattern Salmon turned from gray to golden yellow.
As the aroma started to rise, Cola sniffed, sticking out and pulling back its tongue repeatedly, almost drooling at the mouth.
Run Run Duck wasn’t much better, with trembling pupils, an open mouth, and a shaking body, all indicating its excitement and anticipation at this moment.
When the frying was finished,
The two little fellows couldn’t endure any longer and immediately started eating with their hands.
“Aww aww aww.”
Even though the fish was scorching hot, Cola couldn’t care less, instantly gulping down a slice, the flavor bursting in its mouth.
Run Run Duck’s movements were a bit more refined than Cola’s, initially savoring the taste of the slices slowly, but seeing Cola’s rapid pace, it panicked and couldn’t help speeding up, its eyes widening.
This is… this is the taste of happiness duck.
Even after swallowing the fish slices, Run Run Duck continued to chew as if reminiscing the aroma, that sense of happiness.
Compared to eating raw, this method is just too delicious!
Chen Yuan cast a sidelong glance at the two little fellows, secretly laughing: “This is what happens when you’ve never tasted good food.”
Then,
Chen Yuan also picked up a golden slice to taste, suddenly widening his eyes, murmuring: “No wonder…”
The texture and flavor of Spirit Fish indeed stood out significantly over ordinary fish; it was like the difference between street stalls and luxury restaurants.
Question Run Run Duck, understand Run Run Duck, become Run Run Duck.
After eating a couple of slices, Chen Yuan left the rest for the two little fellows.
This Wave Pattern Salmon was small, far from matching the Golden Crucian Carp, and the two little fellows devoured it quickly, leaving none behind.
“Aww…..”
Cola slumped on the ground, snugly cuddled with Run Run Duck, a warm stream flowing through its body, letting out a satisfied moan.
“Quack quack~”
Run Run Duck patted its slightly bulging belly, letting the intense noon sunlight shine down; it merely squinted its eyes, swaying its little feet.
Such happiness duck.
Out of the blue, Cola remembered something, turning to glance at Run Run Duck: “Aww aww aww~”
Did you like the food my owner made?
“Quack!”
Hearing this question, Run Run Duck collected its expression and nodded seriously.
Being serious is the basic respect for food.
Delicious duck!
“Aww aww?”
Cola’s eyes rolled, staring at Run Run Duck to ask again.
Then when we leave here, you won’t be able to eat it anymore.
“Quack!”
Run Run Duck instantly sat upright, eyes flashing with a hint of panic, shaking its head like a rattle drum.
Watching Run Run Duck’s reaction, Cola was very satisfied, patting Run Run Duck on the shoulder with its paw, enticing: “Aww aww?”
So, don’t you want to continue eating?
“Quack quack quack quack quack!”
Run Run Duck nodded as fast as it could.
“Aww aww.”
Then come with us.
“Quack?”
Run Run Duck froze on the spot, seemingly not expecting Cola to say this.
Then,
Run Run Duck fell into contemplation.
It slowly raised its head, scanning Mingyu Lake—the tranquil lake surface remained undisturbed, with occasional birds skimming across, leaving charming shadows, and Mingyu Lake surrounded by green mountains was as peaceful as ever.
Cola watched Run Run Duck expectantly, while Chen Yuan secretly perked up his ears. Only Spark appeared uninterested, staring at the white clouds in the sky, daydreaming.
Seeing Run Run Duck delayed in answering, Chen Yuan had to say: “Actually, it’s a job with meals and accommodation…..”
But before he finished speaking, Spark shot a resentful glance first.
