Chapter 529 529 Gluttonous Trash (Request Subscription)
Sitting dumbfounded next to the trash, Pei Yan mechanically recounted Lin Junzhao's words to Gu Shenghui. After a moment, Gu Shenghui wiped the water stain in front of him, shrugged, and said, "Who knows, maybe it's just an experiment!"
"Experiment?" Pei Yan asked, puzzled.
"Yeah, this big shot from the Spirit Monster Plane coming to the present world chose dogs as the animal most intimately connected with humans that are least noticeable, to represent itself as a clone." Gu Shenghui said, taking a betel nut from his dimensional ring and chewing as he mumbled, "You don't know the situation in the Spirit Monster Plane. Creatures there weren't born from nature but migrated from two other planes as advanced animal life forms. So the relationships are extremely intricate, and this big shot has too many concerns! They wouldn't dare to easily leave offspring with another species, because doing so would mean they're more inclined towards one side, breaking the balance between the two factions!"
With that, Gu Shenghui gave Pei Yan a knowing look, to which Pei Yan immediately nodded in understanding. Gu Shenghui continued, "After coming to the present world, it lost all those concerns and wanted to try if leaving offspring was feasible, so it selected what it believed to be the most handsome dog breed as the surrogate for its offspring!
"So it chose a Husky?" already anticipating what would happen next, Pei Yan asked, suppressing his laughter with his hands over his face.
"Yes! At the time, this big shot was not in the country but was guarding the secret warehouse rotation in M Country. To curry favor with this big shot, the country specially found a Husky with the purest bloodline, and the whole process went smoothly as trash was born!"
"Was it just born alone?" Pei Yan asked, petting the fur on the trash's back.
"Just one. Maybe because the energy of the Spirit Monster Plane was too strong, the Husky couldn't bear it and died after giving birth to the trash. You see what happened after; the big shot never imagined its offspring would only possess strength without even developing intelligence, bringing it immense psychological trauma and leaving a deep psychological shadow. After that, it never made such attempts again," Gu Shenghui couldn't help but laugh, spitting out betel nut residue onto a tissue before throwing it aside, "But no matter what, this is its only bloodline in the world, so it spared no effort in raising it, maybe you can get what you want from it."
"What a pity, that big shot shouldn't have only looked at appearance but the intelligence too, so how dumb are you that even superpowers can't save your intellect." Pei Yan said, smiling wryly while stroking the trash's head.
The trash seemed to sense Pei Yan's comments weren't good, shook its head, and gave him a scornful sideways look. Remembering he needed something from the dog, Pei Yan quickly forced a friendly smile and took the remaining half bag of beef jerky from Gu Shenghui's hand, offering it piece by piece to the trash with flattery, "Trash, do you have any good things left for you by your father inside your body?"
The trash acted as if it didn't understand him and continued eating beef jerky without responding to Pei Yan's words. Seeing this, Pei Yan scratched his head out of frustration, then reluctantly took out a small box, pulled out a fragment of original essence, and dangled it in front of the trash, continuing to tempt it, "Something like this, if you give me a piece, I'll get you whatever you want to eat. Don't just stop at beef jerky; you can have steak or even a whole...."
Before Pei Yan could finish speaking with the fragment of essence in hand, he saw the trash roll its tongue and instantly sucked the fragment of death from Pei Yan's hand into its stomach. Stunned, Pei Yan stood frozen in place. While he was still in shock, the trash continued to rapidly swallow two more fragments of the essence from the small wooden box.
"Spit it out! Spit it out for me!" Snapping back to reality, Pei Yan went berserk and grabbed the trash by the neck, shaking it with all his strength as he yelled!
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Calm down! Calm down! It's just a dog!" Gu Shenghui hurriedly ran over and grabbed Pei Yan's hand, trying to pull it away as he watched the trash get suffocated with its eyes rolled up.
"If it doesn't spit them out, it'll die! Those are two fragments of the Law of Death and an energy fragment!" Pei Yan refused to let go, shaking it desperately for a long time, and even reached out to put his hand in the trash's mouth to get them out in frustration.
"What's going on, what's going on!" Wang Wenze, originally sent outside, heard the commotion and rushed inside to inquire. He was greeted with the scene of Pei Yan strangling the trash's neck with one hand while trying to shove his other hand into its mouth.
"I don't know what happened; I just saw the commissioner was hitting Laifu when I came in!" Jiang Feiyang, who entered first without understanding the situation, teased as he spoke.
"Stop joking, stop watching the drama, and pull them apart!" Gu Shenghui commanded loudly when he saw this.
Hearing the order, everyone rushed over, and with everyone pulling and tugging, they finally managed to separate the man and the dog. Once Pei Yan's hands left the trash's neck, the trash, seemingly wanting revenge, leaped over and swallowed the remaining essence fragments scattered on the sofa during the scuffle.
"Hey! Hey! So you're challenging me, dog! Let go of me so I can see it! My stuff! You really don't know what's good for you!" Pei Yan yelled, jumping in anger, watching this scene with veins bulging.
It was only then that everyone realized what had happened, but it was too late. With a gulp, it swallowed all the fragments into its belly.
Ten minutes later, sitting on the chair smoking, Pei Yan looked at the trash lying listlessly at his feet, its body twitching uncontrollably, and sighed, "I told you not to eat them. You act as if I want to harm you. I really don't know what kind of brain you have, now you're feeling miserable!"
Elder Lin placed his hand on the trash with a furrowed brow and said with difficulty, "Now's not the time for sarcastic remarks. The two forces inside it are clashing fiercely, and it doesn't know how to mediate and balance them. Continuing like this, its body won't handle it. Elder Cen managed to persuade that big shot to send the trash to this dangerous place, and that wasn't easy. If something happens, we won't have a good explanation when we return!"
"Then what should we do!" Liang Qian, having spent considerable time with the trash, felt distressed seeing its current state and urgently stroked the trash while kneeling down.
"What else can we do, surgery! It has amazing regenerative abilities, and with Elder Lin's skills, we should operate and remove them before the fragments fully activate!" Pei Yan said, flipping his cigarette butt on the ground and stamping it out helplessly.
Elder Lin nodded at these words, knowing it was the only option. Just as Pei Yan was bending down, ready to turn his hand into a scalpel to slice open the trash's belly, the trash suddenly rolled over and stood up wobbling, coming to Pei Yan's side. While Pei Yan was puzzled, the trash suddenly opened its mouth wide and vomited.
