Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract

Chapter 75 Classic of Mountains and Seas

When he returned to the desert again, Cha Chuan looked to the east and still saw no movement. He frowned, a little unhappy, and immediately called Political Commissar Ming and asked him to send military vehicles to the empty desert as soon as possible.

He also said that he would send more people and there was no need to report anything. Special matters would be handled promptly and he would be responsible for any problems that occurred.

After making the call, Cha Chuan only said to Mo Xu, "Wait, someone will come to answer it soon," and then hurriedly walked aside and started making calls frequently again.

Under Chachuan's instructions and coordination, the entire association began to operate like a precision machine, and a large number of relevant personnel from top to bottom were mobilized.

In the Southern Military Region, Commander Cui reported to the Capital Military Region as soon as possible.

At the association's headquarters, a draft summary of the secret realm situation was completed and submitted to several high-level leaders.

In Jiangming City, in addition to the senior military personnel who came out in full force, the only remaining master, Master Li, was also rushing to the Hollow Desert.

Compared with Cha Chuan's busyness, Yun Man seemed much more leisurely. After making a short phone call, she came over to chat with Mo Xu.

"Little brother, where did you make the contract as a little grass?"

Mo Xu naturally knew that Yun Man must have sensed something and was hinting at something. He answered cautiously, "I bought it at the Monster Center in the city."

"Oh?" Yun Man stretched out her voice slightly and moved closer: "Since you are not a little grass in some ancient monument, then let me guess that you must have gained some benefits in the secret realm, right?"

"No." Mo Xu denied subconsciously.

"Come on, your monster has a very ancient and vicissitudes of life aura. I have smelled it several times. It can't be an ordinary plant-based aura."

She covered her mouth and chuckled. "Don't worry, I'm not trying to trick you or hold you accountable. Whether you tell me or not, it's the same result for me. Besides, I'm not a formal official of the association, so I have nothing to be afraid of."

Seeing that Mo Xu had given up, he neither denied nor admitted: "Then come to me and tell me what you want to do."

Yun Man suppressed her smile and invited him seriously: "Would you like to consider joining the Adventurer's Association? I think you and your monsters will have a great affinity with the ancient tomb."

Mo Xu was a little surprised: "Can you smell it if you're destined to?"

"What are you thinking?" Yun Man rolled her eyes at Mo Xu and said, "This is my intuition. Sometimes, an adventurer's intuition is more accurate than any other means."

Mo Xu was a little hesitant. He was not as enthusiastic about adventurers as Jiang Pan, nor did he have any family-inherited talents, so he declined, "I still want to focus on improving my strength."

"It won't delay you. Who told you that adventurers should just go out and wander around every day? That's what they should do. How can you explore the great country if you don't improve your strength? There are many benefits to joining."

"For example?"

"For example, you will receive a salary every month, and after discovering a secret place, you may be invited by the association to explore together, just like I did this time."

"It seems pretty good." Mo Xu thought: "Do I have to go to work on duty?"

"Of course not. It's not like an adventurer to go to work. Our journey is to the beautiful mountains and rivers, not the office. If you must say anything, you have to obey the association's call and cooperate in exploring the secret realm." Seeing that Mo Xu had given in, she continued to strike while the iron was hot: "Also, if you agree to become an adventurer, I can give you some secrets about history."

"You mean, part of history was deliberately buried?"

Yun Man raised her eyebrows: "Yes, it seems that President Cha has already told you some things, but there is more. For example, what is the so-called "Emperor" in this Emperor's Tomb, and for example, the origin of the Beast Tamer, do you want to know?"

Mo Xu was impressed by the part-time job that allowed him to get paid for free without having to work, and the chance to listen to secrets.

After a little thought, he readily agreed: "Then I'm all ears."

Yun Man patted Mo Xu's shoulder and said, "Yes, that's good. I declare that you are my little brother from now on. I will protect you in the Adventurer's Association. But I have to tell you, I am not my little brother for nothing. If you find anything in the future, you must call me and you are not allowed to eat alone."

"It's a must, understand?" She put her arm around Mo Xu's shoulders again, half strangled Mo Xu's neck with her elbow, and emphasized: "Otherwise, I will cut you."

Mo Xu couldn't break free, so she made a promise helplessly: "Okay, big sister, I got it."

Yun Man pretended to be serious: "What big sister? I am only a dozen years older than you. I am in my prime, don't you understand?"

"Sister, sister, sister Yun!"

After shouting several times, Yun Man finally let Mo Xu go, clapped her hands, and said, "It's a deal, I'll tell you the secrets now."

But she raised her lips slyly, feeling proud in her heart. Because what she was going to say, in fact, after becoming an adventurer, there was internal information available, so it was not too mysterious.

"Let me ask you first, did President Cha tell you that there were beastmasters in our world an unknown number of years ago?"

Mo Xu nodded, and she rarely looked serious: "History is hard to verify. We only know that in ancient times, before the development of science and technology, humans were just like us during the "revival", struggling among the beasts and becoming food. That dark era lasted for who knows how long."

"Humanity did not become extinct in that barbaric era. It was because there were generations of heroes leading the ancient human race to fight for their lives in the world that the fire of civilization survived and gradually became the master of the world."

"The heroic leader of the human race from generation to generation, and also the most powerful beastmaster of every era, is the Emperor!"

"If this is the Emperor's Tomb, then the majestic figure I saw during the trial is most likely an ancient Emperor."

Mo Xu remembered that Yufeng Qilin had clearly said that it and its master wanted to go further, but ended up failing.

In this case, this Great Kirin should not be considered a true "Emperor"?

"No, I'm narrow-minded," he quickly overturned this idea in his mind: "'Emperor' is not only a state of mind, but also a responsibility. These emperors are the sages who led the human race out of the wilderness, and they are worthy of this word. Although the Great Kirin and Yufeng Kirin died for unknown reasons, they still thought about the inheritance of the younger generation after their death. Regardless of whether they are 'Emperors' or not, they deserve respect. "

Yun Man's tone was full of awe and yearning: "Those histories are too far away. The extraordinary disappeared, lost and recovered. At present, we can only piece together some fragments from the past. I really look forward to digging out the truth of history with my own hands."

The topic suddenly became a bit heavy. After they were both silent for a while, Mo Xu asked the second secret: "How did the beastmasters who "revive" in modern times appear?"

Yun Man did not keep Mo Xu in suspense and quickly explained: "It is also somewhat related to the Emperor. You should have learned in your textbooks that the first batch of beastmasters appeared in the years after the "Resurrection". That's because in that year, a cave house that was suspected to be the remains of the Emperor was excavated."

"Is it the Emperor's Tomb?"

"No, it's just a ruin. In that place, the association, oh, it should be called the government at that time, found an ancient book and a broken sword. The origin of the broken sword has not been studied yet, but you should have heard of the name of this book, called "Shan Hai Jing"."

"Classic of Mountains and Seas?!" Mo Xu got goosebumps the instant he heard it. This was too weird.

Because not only in Zhanxing, but also on Earth, "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is also a famous book in history, which describes many strange creatures, myths and legends, and unknown regions. Many scholars even believe that many of the things in it are true, but there is no way to verify them.

Suddenly, he thought of more coincidental legends, such as Xuanyuan, Chiyou, and Dayu's flood control. Why do some legends of the two worlds overlap? Is there any connection here?

"Well," Yun Man didn't notice that Mo Xu's surprise was a bit "excessive", and continued: "The cover of that book does have these three words written on it, but the content inside is completely different from the one that was circulated in later generations. Many of our current 'common sense' in the beast taming world, such as awakening, supernatural skills, and contracts, were learned from it."

"In fact, at the beginning, this book was not taken seriously, as people thought it was just a collection of strange stories. A researcher found that he seemed to be in a similar situation to the one recorded in the book, so he tried to resonate with extraordinary energy and form a bond with a monster. It turned out to be successful. That researcher also became the first beastmaster after the resurrection. After the report was submitted, research on beastmastering was immediately launched, and the first batch of beastmasters were born that year."

Mo Xu didn't really listen to it, his mind was completely distracted by the strange coincidence.

Similar legends, ancient emperors, and the "unspeakable" secrets in the mouth of the Wind-controlling Qilin, what are these and do they have anything to do with him?

Seeing that Mo Xu was a little dazed, Yun Man thought that he had heard too much at once and couldn't digest it, so she patted his shoulder and said, "Anyway, I have finished telling you the story I promised you, so don't break your promise."

Mo Xu came back to his senses and responded with a "hmm".

After Yun Man finished pimping, she was in a good mood. She glanced at Xiu Xiu who was standing obediently at Mo Xu's feet, and her nose couldn't help but twitch again.

It was a good deal to make friends with the owner of such a small grass with just a little effort. She believed in her intuition that the return on investment would not be low.

"Okay," Yun Man said at last, "Wait a few days. I'll finish the handover here and go back to the city to handle the formalities for you and Xiao Jiang. Now, you just stay here and don't run around. You can go back when the army arrives."

Mo Xu just nodded without any further response. Yun Man did not interrupt him and let Mo Xu think about it. She returned to Chachuan to see if there was anything else she could help with.

Mo Xu recalled the complicated historical truths in his mind. He tried to string together those confusing things, but he couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. Finally, he had to give up.

If it was just Yufeng Qilin's last wish before his death, he wouldn't have cared so much. But now that all this history was going around in circles and was suspected to be related to him, he had no choice but to delve deeper into it.

Mo Xu sighed: "It seems that joining the Adventurer's Association is necessary. Otherwise, I will apply for an archaeology major in college?"

"Forget it," he felt that he was not cut out for it. "It's better to study combat. Improving your strength is the first priority. I can spend the rest of my time pondering over those 'truths'."

Mo Xu's head was as big as a bucket. He stamped the dirt on the ground fiercely and couldn't help but curse angrily: "Can the riddle man just die?"
