The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 45: Shengmu Beast

Shengmu magical beasts loved babies. They were fifth level beasts with incredible defense, perfect for protecting children. Jier knew Feng Wus brain would never think of such things so he brought it up.

Although Tian Yue and her family were good people, it wouldnt do to inconvenience and rely on them for everything. Feng Wu wouldnt understand these subtleties, so he just straight out told her how to handle the situation instead. Besides trying to explain to her would take too long and likely be a waste of breath.

Jier had a very good understanding of Feng Wus brain. This little sister of his was not worldly at all. And it was true; no one had taught her about such things back at Yuehua mountain. She only had her master, who himself was a very pure unworldly person. How could a person like him teach someone else about the ways of the world? As a result, Feng Wu was not well-versed in everyday social niceties at all.

Jier thought of her as a friend so of course he wanted to help her. He was quick to act once his mind was made up. After lunch he took her and Tian Ke out around the city to shop.

The enrollment examinations just ended so the city was bustling with crowds of people taking their children here and there. Jier had already familiarized himself with the shops in the area while Feng Wu was in the virtual world.

He made a beeline for a shop specializing in magical beasts. The shop was a well-established one and had a wide range of products. They even sold dragon eggs. Most people couldnt afford the high price, so few purchased any, settling for window shopping instead.

New guests! Please come in. I am the owner of this shop. May I ask what your needs are? I can make some recommendations for you, if you can tell me what kind of magical beasts you are looking for. A thirty-year-old man came over to them with a professional smile plastered on his face.

Shes the one wholl be buying. She needs a shengmu beast, Jier said as he pointed to Feng Wu.

Oh. So thats the case. I happen to have a new group of shengmu beasts in. Though they are still young, they grow quickly. It will be good for the baby and the shengmu to grow up together, said the owner with a smile.

Take us to see them then. Jier didnt express his intentions to purchase one immediately, just that he was interested in seeing one. Though the shengmu beasts were well suited for child care, they were still beasts. What if the baby didnt like it? Both sides had to get along, otherwise it would not work out. The most important thing was to find a beast that was compatible with the baby.

Like a second and third shadow, Feng Wu and Tian Ke followed behind Jier.

The shopkeeper led them over and opened the door to one of the rooms. Inside was a small basket with three basketball sized lumps. The shengmu beasts had snow white fur, eyes the size of walnuts, and long hands and feet. In the middle of their stomach was something that resembled a kangaroos pouch. Not only was it perfect for holding and keeping a baby warm, it also had magical properties that nourished the babys body, staving off illness and keeping the baby healthy.

The three beasts looked up at the sound of approaching footsteps. Their big eyes shone with intelligence. They knew a friend would be leaving today. Shengmus were social magical beasts, so they were naturally reluctant to part with each other.

One of them became excited when Feng Wu brought Little Bun closer to the basket. It waved its hands happily towards Little Bun. Jier raised his eyebrows at the sight and pointed at it. That one, how much?

The shopkeeper smiled even wider at the question. That shengmu is 50,000 gold coins. The customer didnt look like he lacked money.

Put it on the card, Jier said as he pulled out an obsidian card and handed it over to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeepers smile became respectful at the sight. This was no ordinary customer. Only those from powerful aristocratic families had this kind of card.

In the meantime, Tian Ke nearly had a heart attack. Seriously?! 50,000 gold coins?! Not 5, not 500, but fifty-thousand! It was inconceivable that someone could just whip out that much money. Tian Kes brain was in shock. He wasnt the only one surprised at the cost.

Thats so expensive. She could buy so much food with that. Feng Wu wrinkled her brow at the transaction.

Im giving it to you. Were friends so you dont have to repay it. This young master is not short on funds, so spoke the rich guy.

Mm. Feng Wu nodded her head cutely.

She wouldnt understand the concept of borrowing and lending anyways. But this kind of Feng Wu was good too. She didnt need to know all that stuff. Jier came to this conclusion after thinking about a former friend who was poor. At the time his generosity had been interpreted wrongly and his friend thought Jier was looking down on him. Henceforth that friend broke off all contact with him. Not wanting to repeat mistakes of the past, Jier decided not to teach Feng Wu about matters regarding money, lest he lose another friend over it.

Jier held the shengmu in front of Little Bun. This way it would recognize him as its master and understand its role as protector and servant. It could bring Little Bun into its dimensional space and hide there as well. Although it was small now, the shengmu would grow quickly if they bought a magic stone for it to absorb.

Feng Wu put Little Bun inside the shengmus pouch. After that she and Tian Ke walked around the shop looking at all the available magic beasts and magic beast eggs.

He just made a really big sale so the shopkeeper didnt mind them casually strolling around the store at all. The obsidian card was a very powerful card! It was only to his benefit if during their stroll they found something they liked. He might make another sale!

Wow Brother Jier look! Theres actually a dragon egg for sale here! Dragons were the stuff of legends to ordinary people. They were mysterious and powerful. Tian Ke never thought hed ever see an egg for sale in a store.

Tsk, thats nothing to fuss over. While dragons are massive powerful creatures, their eggs are not difficult to get. Dragons are the kind of creatures that lay their eggs in hidden places then abandon them right after.
