blue whales under the stars

The young man in his arms was silent for a while, through the close embrace, Bai Cang could even feel the blink of the other's eyes.The subtle movements created a little ripple on the chest, and then rippled away, spreading to all the places that were warmed by the body temperature.

Bai Cang couldn't help tightening the arms around the man even tighter.

The body temperature transmitted from the young man slowly filled the emptiness in his arms that had been missing for many years.This kind of illusion that was originally like a transparent bubble under the sea surface was just like a dream, but now it has become a real touch in my arms.

Mu Ye was by his side - for Bai Cang, this was the fulfillment of his long-cherished wish.

Therefore, he is the only one who will notice Mu Ye's strangeness immediately.

Although Mu Ye hesitated for a while in silence, Bai Cang was not in a hurry to urge him.He flattened his curved left hand, and slowly stroked the young man's thin back along the slender and warm back of his neck.The stroking action is like smoothing the fur of a well-behaved cub.

In fact, in front of Bai Cang, it is not an exaggeration to compare Mu Ye to a cub.No matter in terms of age or temperament, the boy is very much like a cub with slender limbs and fluffy fur all over his body.The beast taming family has always regarded domestication as a unilateral skill, and the influence of the clansmen on the companion beasts is always higher than that of the beasts on humans.But between Mu Ye and Bai Cang, the situation doesn't seem to be exactly the same.

At least for now, Mr. Blue Whale is raising his boy.

When Mu Ye finally raised his head from the cool but reassuring embrace, what he said was a seemingly irrelevant question.He asked softly: "Yuanjing...does it have something to do with elements?"

"Yes." Although Bai Cang didn't quite know why he asked this question, the boy was finally willing to speak, and he answered with the same patience as before, "Yuanjing is a kind of energy crystal containing elements. Its energy can Used by mages, it can also be divided into grades and used as a common currency among mages."

He raised his right hand and gently combed the slightly messy blond hair on the young man's forehead with his fingers: "Does Xiaoye want to be a magician?"

Mu Ye's mind was poked a little bit, and he couldn't help showing some anticipation on his face, but he remembered what he had learned since he was a child, and his eyes and brows showed a little sadness: "But the patriarch said that beast tamers and magicians are not the same. Same...we have the ability to tame beasts, so we can no longer learn spells. Just like a magician who has learned spells, he can't practice martial arts."

The human race in Xitan Continent is composed of ordinary people, and one tenth of them are qualified to practice magic arts.In addition to the special group like beast tamers, the practitioners of the human race are divided into two categories, one is magicians who learn elemental spells, and the other is warriors who practice martial arts.The two types of practice rely on different foundations. Even if someone has elemental abilities and martial qi in his body, after he chooses one to start practicing, the other ability in his body will be suppressed and weakened, so there will be both. Common sense cannot be learned at the same time.

It's just that Mu Ye's situation is different from these theoretical things.Bai Cang pondered for a while, and said: "What the patriarch said is only about most of the situations."

Seeing Mu Ye's puzzled face, he couldn't help rubbing his soft cheeks with his fingers.The touch between the fingers is lingering, like touching the neck hair of a long-haired cat.Bai Cang said: "Didn't you also learn the healing technique?"

Mu Ye opened his mouth slightly: "Eh... this, is it a spell?"

Although he was the only one among the clansmen in the forest who knew the healing technique, Mu Ye always thought it was because he couldn't hunt.The more powerful tribesmen can sprint and jump high in the mountains and forests, and draw bows on broken stones, but Mu Ye can only simply walk through the forest.He never thought that what he knew was also a kind of magic.

Bai Cang nodded, and said, "Healing spells should belong to the category of water."

Mu Ye's eyes lit up: "Is it the same as yours?"

He only cared about being happy because of the similarities between himself and Mr. Blue Whale, but he forgot to consider the reason why he couldn't summon any water element.Bai Cang didn't mention this either, he just smiled lightly and said, "Well, blue whales are sea beasts of the water system."

Mu Ye finally plucked up his courage, and said to Bai Cang who was wrapping his arms around him, "I want to be a magician!"

He wanted to learn more and wanted to help Mr. Blue Whale.Mu Ye wants to give the best to his companion beast, so he has to become stronger in order to realize his dream.

He has the best companion animal in the world, he can't lose.

Bai Cang endured it for a long time before he got over the constriction in his chest that he didn't know whether it was bitter or sweet.Mu Ye looked serious and determined, just like himself a long time ago, trying to become stronger.

Fortunately, Mu Ye is different from himself at that time. His future is bright all the way, and what he wants can be reached as long as he moves forward.

Bai Cang lowered his head, put his forehead against the boy's forehead, and gently touched the tip of the boy's nose.

"Okay." His voice was the usual gentleness when facing Mu Ye, his tone was gentle, serious and determined: "Xiao Ye will definitely become the most powerful magician."

——whale——whale——whale——whale——

Bai Cang led the recovered Mu Ye around several narrow alleys, and then walked to a wide street.There was a constant flow of people on the street, and the two of them walked all the way and stopped in front of a tavern.

They pushed the door open and walked in. The bell behind the door rang crisply. Mu Ye looked up curiously, and saw a small hammer with warm wood color and smoothness being driven by the wheel shaft and hit it precisely because of the push of the door panel. On a stocky stake covered in metal.

The temperature inside the house is suitable, and the decoration looks like it has been around for a few years, but it is clean and tidy everywhere, which makes people feel good at a glance.There were about five or six tables of guests sitting in the tavern, and a few people were sitting in front of the bar. The sound of conversation overshadowed most of the sound of the bell, but the boss behind the bar did not neglect the outside guests.

"Brady! We have two guests—"

A brown-haired young man named Brady trotted over and welcomed the two of them in. He obviously knew Bai Cang, and when he saw Bai Cang, the smile on his face became more sincere: "Hey, brother, come here!" Alright, this time I'm still borrowing the kitchen?"

Mu Ye blinked, only to hear Bai Cang beside him say: "Not today."

The man unloaded the pannier behind him from his shoulders, handed the pannier containing dozens of oysters to Brady, and took out two silver coins and handed them to him: "One is boiled, the other is baked. Add two pieces of buttered bread, Thank you."

Brady took the pannier and returned a silver coin to Bai Cang with a smile. He shook the remaining one in his hand and said, "One silver coin is enough for the processing fee."

He led the two of them to sit down at an empty table, and walked towards the back kitchen of the tavern with the bamboo basket in hand.Sitting opposite Bai Cang, Mu Ye looked at Brady's back, turned his gaze back to Mr. Lan Jing and said, "Have you ever used the kitchen here before?"

Bai Cang took the dinner plate in front of Mu Ye, and covered the wooden spoon, wooden fork, and disc with a thin layer of clean water gathered by his fingertips, and waited for the water to flow on the surface of the tableware before wrapping them up. The dusty water droplets were collected, condensed into a small ball and placed in the palm of the hand, allowing the round water ball to roll into the flower pot placed by the table.

While moving naturally, he opened his mouth and said, "I learned how to cook when I came here."

Mu Ye's eyes moved with the movements of Bai Cang's hands, until the other party handed the cleaned dishes back to him, and then realized belatedly: "Cooking...?"

He asked curiously, "Did you also like to come to the shore to eat before?"

It wasn't until Mr. Blue Whale showed a wry expression that Mu Ye suddenly realized, no, Bai Cang is a blue whale, he should be eating in the sea...

Bai Cang rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingers, and held back his overly obvious smile a little: "I came here early to learn because I was afraid that the food I made would be too unpalatable."

He looked at the boy across the table, still with a slight smile in his voice: "So as not to scare away the people who have finally found the beach.
