Communicate with furry animals without any barriers, and take the farm to the next level

Chapter 21 Trust
The rock rat held the fish ball awkwardly and squeaked softly. If Josh hadn't pricked up his ears and stared at it closely, he probably wouldn't have been able to hear what it said.

Yes, it says it's for you, Josh, and I hope you'll keep it for me.

The little squirrel was not very smart. It only knew that its family of rock squirrels had to live in hiding from humans since they were born. This was because of spatial energy, their natural hoarding instinct, and the legend that they could create the world.

Since it was a child, it has been afraid of contact with humans. The few of its kind it occasionally meets are all radicals. No rat has ever told it that there are humans like Josh who simply keep it as a pet.

It is actually very timid. It ran out of the mountains and forests because it was afraid of encountering ferocious beasts, and it did not dare to get too close to the city because it was afraid of encountering bad humans.

But it didn't know how it hid in this remote farm and met a good girl like Qiao Xi. Every night, the rock rat didn't have to risk going deep into the dense forest to find food and high-energy substances.

Josh would leave it a small cup of big-tailed yak's milk, the milk of a high-level magical beast. It was drunk on milk the first time it drank it. The rich energy made its spatial energy more abundant. It practiced spatial skills hard every day, wanting to give Josh and the big-tailed yak a gift.

But it was just a little squirrel, what could it possibly give? It looked at the food it had stored; Josh had no shortage of it. The rock rat was a little discouraged, and then it put more effort into weaving space. Suddenly, it had an idea. Looking at its biggest secret, the little squirrel had an idea that would shock the rats if it told them.

It wanted to give its walnuts to Josh.

Its spatial medium is iron walnut, which has a shallow spatial energy and is very popular among rock rats in the mountains and forests.

The hard shell can defend against most external enemies, but it cannot withstand their own bites. It can protect others but not themselves, which is great, and they like it very much.

But the biggest secret is that this iron walnut is not an iron walnut, or it should be called the essence of the iron walnut fruit.

This happened during a rainstorm when the cave entrance was flooded. The rock rat escaped in the rain and found the essence of the fruit under the towering tree, which was still shining with a dark black light in the dark night.

It forgot that it had just escaped death and the sound of the rain. Its mind was full of gratitude to the goddess of luck for the gift. In this way, the empty rock mouse and its iron walnut began a new life until they met Josh.

Until Josh became their new owner.

But there is an even bigger surprise yet to come. The essence of the iron walnut fruit has a bigger secret - it can accommodate life. Yes, it can store small lives, and even allow the owner to hide in the walnut and escape.

In countless life-and-death crises, the Kongyanshu hid in the iron walnut and avoided those scenes where death was inevitable.

Qiao Xi held the iron walnut, which was a little hot. She hadn't done anything for Kong Yanshu, and even felt that their relationship hadn't reached that point. Why did Kong Yanshu do this?

No reason.

Perhaps the Sky Rock Rat fell in love with this warm and happy day, perhaps it was the sense of crisis brought by the Brown-headed Vulture, or perhaps it wanted to occupy a larger position in Josh's heart. Anyway, the Sky Rock Rat offered its most precious thing, and it wanted to stay with Josh forever.

Qiao Xi knew how precious this kind of space equipment that could accommodate life was at the moment, but she was afraid to face such sincere feelings. She thought about it, she had to think about it.

In the end, Qiao Xi returned the small walnut to Kong Yanshu and said to it seriously: "Kong Yanshu, thank you for giving me the iron walnut. I like this gift very much. It is very precious."

The empty rock mouse was a little happy but also a little reluctant to leave. After all, it had been playing with it for so many years. It looked at the iron walnut with reluctance and waved its hand pretending to be indifferent: "It's a small problem, Qiao Xi, as long as you like it."

"However, I hope to have a larger space so that I, the big-horned yak, and even all the crops on our farm can enter. Therefore, I will give the Iron Walnut to you. You should construct the power of space and strive to create the legendary small world to accommodate us all.

Okay? "

"Okay," the rock squirrel said, looking at the iron walnut that Qiao Xi handed over. He took it without thinking. "Qiao Xi, I really wanted to give it to you," the little squirrel said, a little embarrassed. "I know, it's not yours now, don't get me wrong." Qiao Xi smiled, easing the rock squirrel's confusion.

Unlike the duck shed of the duck herder, that kind of space equipment is semi-open and closely connected with the outside world to have air to sustain life. The space structure is very loose, so it needs to be reinforced regularly. It is like a house with air leaks on all sides, which is shaky and expensive, so ordinary people can only rent it.

In contrast, Qiao Xi sighed, thinking that the Sky Rock Rat really gave him a great gift.

Without thinking about it, Josh continued to make fish balls. He heard a "cooing" sound outside. It seemed to be a white-feathered egret. There were many of them in Shimmering Lake recently, but Josh rarely saw them outside the house.

The "cooing" sound became louder and louder. Qiao Xi opened the window and looked out. He was a little surprised to see all kinds of birds standing outside the house.

She looked at the big-tailed yak. ​​If it was a big-tailed yak with malicious intent, it would not let them get so close to Josh. It didn't react, which meant it was not a big problem.

"Coo, choo" a white-feathered egret couldn't help but say: What a delicious smell of fish, can I have a taste?

Just like a lit fuse, there was a sudden chirping of birds, all kinds of them scrambled for the fish, fearing that if they said it was too late they would have no fish balls to eat.

Josh understood, but she couldn't fulfill the wishes of so many birds.

"I only caught a limited number of small fish, so I can't let you eat them all. If you want them, you can only exchange them for something else."

Qiao Xi just said it casually, but he didn't expect that the birds on the ground would fly away all of a sudden. No, is it really that serious? Flying so fast.

But it’s better to leave. I can’t let them watch me eat while I stay here.

Put the dough fish balls in place, and then deal with the rest of the small fish. These small fish have a lot of bones on them. After Qiao Xi cuts the fish slices, he uses a large spoon to scrape off the meat paste bit by bit, while sifting out the small bones in the meat. No bones can be left behind, otherwise the taste will be bad.

Although the fish is small, the fish meat paste is quite good. After mixing it, it becomes a large bowl.

Even though his muscles are well-developed now, Josh still feels a little tired. This is really not something a human can do. It's really tiring.

The rock rat was holding the fish ball and chewing it while playing. Qiao Xi hadn't prepared dinner yet, but it had already eaten its fill and fallen asleep.

Josh gently covered it with a small handkerchief, making sure it didn't get cold on the stomach.

Then I made some wheat noodles as the staple food and had fish ball noodle soup tonight.

Dough fish balls are rich in water energy, chewy, plump and juicy. Even big-tailed yaks can eat a few, not to mention brown-headed vultures, which can peck one, throw it into the sky, and then catch it when it falls vertically.

It’s so satisfying to eat one at a time.

Qiao Xi told it that it could eat any fruit in the forest, so it didn't have to worry even if it didn't have enough fish balls.

After eating, Qiao Xi was lying in a chair and preparing to take a nap when he suddenly noticed a black mass flying towards him from a distance.
