C10 Dream-eating cub

"Awoo!" When the black beast saw Zhou Heng reaching towards it, it suddenly let out a strange cry and bit towards Zhou Heng's finger.

Zhou Heng immediately retracted his hand and looked at the sharp teeth in the little fellow's mouth. If he were to bite hard enough, he would probably snap his own finger too.

"It's not that big, but it's pretty fierce." Zhou Heng couldn't think of a good plan at the moment. This little beast was lying on top of the boy's head, he didn't dare to use force like when he was dealing with yam and ghosts.

"What do you mean by that, Heavenly Master?" Ding Long who was behind Zhou Heng asked.

"Boss Ding, this — no, I mean, how long has your son been ill?" Zhou Heng originally wanted to ask how long this Dream Eating Beast had been pestering your son, but the words suddenly came to his mouth and changed his mind.

"My son, Ding Dang, has always been in bad health since he was young," Ding Long said. "Last year, I took him to the mountains to ask for Buddha, and when we returned, his illness became even more severe. Last month, the hospital already …" The hospital had given up on treating Ding Dang.

"Could it be that I'm not sincere about begging Buddha?" Ding Long made a wild guess and he really started panicking, "Is that why I received the punishment of the heavens?"

Zhou Heng shook his head. The Dream Eating Beast belonged to the yam category and would rarely come to a human city, so this was the first time he had seen one. This Dream Eating Beast must have been brought back by Ding Long when he went to the mountains to beg Buddha for mercy. Normally speaking, the Dream Eater wouldn't have such a strong attack power, so it should be very easy for a young beast like this to be driven away. This little dream beast must have entered a strange environment in the city and felt a sense of fear towards the surrounding humans, which must have led to the current situation.

"The current situation is very complicated," Zhou Heng truthfully replied. "Even if I were to handle it myself, it would be a little tricky."

Ding Long immediately regained his senses, and smiled towards Zhou Heng: "Master Tian, please do not worry. As long as you can cure my son, the one with the surname Ding will definitely benefit greatly from your treatment!"

Xiang Yunhai curled his lips, he felt that there was a 80 to 90% chance that Zhou Heng was a scammer. "We'll talk about the benefits after you cure the young master, if you can't treat him, hmph." He snorted coldly.

Ding Long immediately stopped him, and said: "Bro, don't say it like that. Zhou Tian Shi, just try your best, if it doesn't work, I will give you a gift."

Zhou Heng saw that the two of them had misunderstood him, but it was hard for him to explain the situation in front of him. He couldn't tell Ding Long that there was an invisible little monster lying on top of your son's head, so it wasn't convenient for him to use force, right? So it was just a misunderstanding. Zhou Heng no longer explained and looked towards the little boy lying on the bed.

"Little friend," Zhou Heng smiled and asked him, "Are you afraid of pain?"

Ding Dang shook her head, then said calmly: "I am Ding Long's son, I am not afraid of anything."

His answer caused Ding Long's body to tremble. Ding Long had never told his son about himself. Presumably, his son heard about it from the mouth of the nurse when he was still in the hospital.

"Young master, well done!" Xiang Yunhai applauded the little boy lightly.

Zhou Heng looked at the young boy's resolute eyes and approached the top of his head. " "Little friend, hold it in." Zhou Heng said.

Ding Dang nodded in response.

Zhou Heng suddenly made his move quickly, his two palms grabbing the Dream Eating Beast's body from left and right.

"Awoo!" The black little Dream Beast roared at Zhou Heng. It bit towards one of Zhou Heng's hands.

"It's time!" Zhou Heng shouted, and then retracted both his hands at the same time.

A black shadow appeared on the little Dream Eating Beast's head, then condensed into the shape of a woman. It was Zheng Li. The little dream eating beast was only on guard against Zhou Heng and had forgotten about his existence.

Zheng Li grabbed the little Dream Beast's body with her hands. Just as she was about to grab it, its four limbs suddenly buckled tightly on top of the boy's head.

"AHH!" The boy screamed in pain.

"Ding Dang!" Ding Long anxiously wanted to lean over.

"Don't come near me!" Zhou Heng shouted. If Ding Long were to come over at this time to cause trouble, all his previous efforts would have been for naught.

"Daddy, it's okay." Ding Dang clenched her teeth, "It's not painful at all." Tears seeped from the corners of his eyes.

Ding Long stopped in his tracks, he bit his lower lip and stared fixedly at his son.

Zhou Heng then placed the index and middle finger of his right hand on the little Dream Eating Beast's forehead.

"Summon the yam Concealment Spell." Zhou Heng said in his heart.

"Summoning successful." Accompanying the system's cold reminder, the energy in Zhou Heng's body started to flow towards the two fingers that were extended from his right hand.

Feeling a strong pressure coming from his forehead, the small dream-eating beast tightened its grip. The panic caused it to grab onto Ding Dang's head with its claws, almost crushing the boy's head with its claws.

"No, I'm not in pain." The boy kept repeating this.

Zheng Li grabbed the little Dream Beast's body and pulled it up. She wanted to let it leave the boy's body faster, but she didn't dare to use too much strength, afraid that it would harm the boy's weak body.

No matter how much the little Dream Eating Beast struggled, Zhou Heng's fingers were firmly pressed on its forehead.

"Aoo@@ and Xiang Yunhai who were present heard the beast howl that came from above Ding Dang's head.

Before they could react, Ding Dang had already closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side.

"Ding Dang!" Ding Long roared, she ran to the side of the bed and hugged Ding Dang's body.

"Hey!" Xiang Yunhai excitedly grabbed Zhou Heng's collar, "What happened to the young master!"

"Let me go." Zhou Heng frowned. He reached out his hand and grabbed hold of Xiang Yunhai's hand that was holding his collar.

"Let go of the Heavenly Master," Ding Long said in a lower voice. "Ding Dang is only sleeping."

While Xiang Yunhai was still stunned by Zhou Heng's strength, he shifted his gaze towards Ding Dang who was on the bed.

Ding Dang was peacefully sleeping in her father's embrace, a sweet smile still on her cute face.

"Whap." A small wooden tablet fell to the ground.

Zhou Heng picked up the wooden plate. A small beast was carved on the thumb-sized wooden tablet. The carver only needed a few brushes to draw the small beast's grimacing expression.

"Ding — —" The system prompt sounded out in Zhou Heng's mind.

"Successfully subdued, Reward: Merit + 1."

"Turn off all mana buffs." Zhou Heng thought silently in his heart. Maintaining an enhanced state was a waste of one's stamina;

He turned the wooden tablet over in his hand over, looked at it for a while, and then put it away in his bosom. Ding Long and Xiang Yunhai were both focused on Ding Dang, who was on the bed, and did not notice Zhou Heng's movements.

Ding Long laid Ding Dang down on the bed softly and covered him with a blanket. Then, he said, "Thank you very much, Heavenly Master." He was still not sure if Ding Dang was really cured, but ever since she had come back from begging Buddha, Ding Dang had a nightmare every time she slept. She had never fallen asleep so peacefully like this before.

"Let's go out first." Ding Long said.

The three of them went outside the room one after another, Zheng Li floated in the air, looked at the boy on the bed two more times, then followed Zhou Heng out.

"Master Zhou, you wanted to ask me about Zheng Li earlier, right?" Ding Long said.

Zhou Heng nodded his head: "I wonder how much Boss Ding knows of Zheng Li's past?"

Ding Long was just about to start a conversation, when Xiang Yunhai suddenly interjected: "Master Zhou Tian must have suffered a lot in saving little young master, why don't we go to the table and chat about this?"

Ding Long smacked his head, "Yes, yes, yes! The old man was right! "Zhou Tianzhi, from your accent, I can tell that you are not a local!"

Zhou Heng smiled and nodded: "I just arrived."

"Since you came to the Coastal City, then let me, your brother, be the host. I will bring you to experience the nightlife near the sea!" After saying this, he ruthlessly laughed out loud. He had returned to the high-spirited Dragon King of the Seas.

"Sure." Zhou Heng agreed immediately. As long as he could complete the quest of helping Zheng Li recover his memories, eating a meal would not be anything special.
