Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Chapter 914: The Complete Collection of Animal Language
Early the next morning.

Gu Chan got up early and washed up. Without waking up Guo Yu, she quietly left the guest room and went downstairs to have breakfast.

When Xuan Xiao came down, he saw Gu Chan already sitting at the table. He quickly ran over and sat down, grinning and saying, "Master, how did you feel last night? Miss Guo must have made you feel very comfortable, right?"

"Snapped!"

Gu Chan raised her hand and slapped Xuan Xiao on the back of his head.

"Ouch!"

Xuan Xiao screamed in pain after being beaten. He rubbed the back of his head in pain and dared not speak anymore.

Gu Chan cursed, "You son of a bitch, you actually brought Miss Guo here. Don't you know that I want to avoid her every day? You are simply causing trouble for me."

"Ah? I thought you liked her!" Xuan Xiao said in surprise.

Before, he saw Gu Chan often hanging out with Guo Yu, so he thought that they liked each other, and that Gu Chan might become the son-in-law of the Guo family in the future, otherwise he would not have gone to pick up Guo Yu last night.

Gu Chan reminded coldly, "I warn you, don't do this again next time. It's impossible for Miss Guo and I to be together, and I plan to match her with Prince Yi."

"Then you are really hurting the girl's heart!" Xuan Xiao said with a wry smile.

"It's better for her to be with Prince Yi than with me. I am destined to leave Diyue Country in the future and there is no way I can stay here." Gu Chan said frankly.

Xuan Xiao immediately stopped smiling and said seriously, "Master, if you leave, will Miss leave too?"

"Of course. My brother and I have always been inseparable. If I leave, she must leave too." Gu Chan nodded.

"What should I do if you all leave?" Xuan Xiao said worriedly.

Gu Chan looked at him and shook her head, then she reached into her sleeve, took out a secret book, and handed it to him.

Xuan Xiao took the secret book and took a look at it, and was stunned on the spot.

Because when you open the first page of this secret book, you will see the four big words "Encyclopedia of Animal Language" written on it.

When he looked further down, he could not understand what was written in the secret book.

Gu Chan explained, "Listen, to treat mysterious beasts, you can find any veterinarian in Kyoto to teach you, but to become a truly qualified veterinarian, you must learn to speak animal language. This way you can communicate with the mysterious beasts without any obstacles and find out where they are feeling uncomfortable. This is the same as the "ask" in Chinese medicine's "look, smell, ask, feel" method."

"Oh! So when the young master and young lady treat the mysterious beasts, they can understand the beast language, so they can accurately find the cause of their illness, right?" Xuan Xiao asked.

"Yes, the reason why the veterinarians in Kyoto couldn't cure the Royal Bull's illness before was not because their medical skills were poor, but because they simply didn't know what was wrong with the Royal Bull. But my sister is different! She has learned this book of animal language and can understand animal language. By talking with the Royal Bull, she knew the cause of the Royal Bull's illness." Gu Chan whispered.

Xuan Xiao nodded repeatedly after hearing this, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

There is no doubt that if Gu Chan is telling the truth, doesn’t it mean that the book of animal language in his hand is a secret book that is like a treasure in the world!
Once people knew that he had this treasure in his hands, he might be killed.

Thinking of this, Xuan Xiao quickly hid the Complete Book of Beast Language into his sleeves and didn't dare to take it out easily again.

Gu Chan added, "This book of animal language took me three whole years to record, stroke by stroke. It clearly records the way animal language is pronounced, the syllables, and the meaning of each sound. You just need to study it carefully, and it won't take long before you will be able to understand some animal language." "Master, are you going to give this great treasure to me?" Xuan Xiao asked.

"Of course, after we leave, I will naturally hand over this veterinary shop in Kyoto to you. As long as you can speak animal language and learn medical skills from other veterinarians, can't you stand on your own?" Gu Chan said, patting Xuan Xiao's shoulder.

Xuan Xiao's eyes immediately filled with tears. He quickly stood up, fell to the ground with weak knees, and began to kowtow to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan quickly reached out and helped him up and said, "What are you doing? I didn't ask you to kneel."

"Master, I, Xuan Xiao, will always remember the great kindness you and Miss have shown me. From now on, I will give you my life. As long as you need me, I will go through fire and water for you without any hesitation." Xuan Xiao said in a firm tone.

"No need for that. As long as you can learn animal language and veterinary medicine, have a skill to make a living, turn over a new leaf and earn a good living in the future, we will be satisfied." Gu Chan said with a faint smile.

Xuan Xiao nodded affirmatively.

Gu Chan pulled him to sit down and said, "Okay, let's have breakfast! After breakfast, wait for Miss Guo to wake up and then send her back to the Guo Mansion safely. There are collapsed houses everywhere here, and it's a mess. If something happens, I won't be able to explain to Mr. Guo and his wife."

"Yes, sir." Xuan Xiao responded respectfully.

Then he followed Gu Chan's instructions and ate breakfast quietly.

After Gu Chan finished eating before him, in order to avoid entanglement with Guo Yu, she made up an excuse to leave the inn and went out for a walk.

"Mr. Xu, good morning!"

"Thank you, Master Xu, for saving my life last night! Otherwise, I don't know how many more people would have died in our area."

"Mr. Xu, you are simply a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!"

What surprised Gu Chan was that because she had fought the gold-eating beast with all her might last night, all the common people in this area now knew her, and they all greeted her to express their gratitude.

Gu Chan responded politely and without being arrogant, which deepened her favorability in everyone's eyes.

Half an hour later.

Just when Gu Chan had walked out of the area where the houses collapsed, she suddenly saw a team of officials on an arch bridge in front of her, carrying a big red flower and coming towards them with gongs and drums.

Many ordinary people were also alarmed by the situation and stood by to watch.

Gu Chan walked up, grabbed an old man and asked, "Old man, what's going on? The disaster here is so severe, why are the government officials still carrying a big red flower and walking towards this side with gongs and drums?"

"Mr. Xu, these are officials from the Imperial Academy. One of our scholars must have passed the exam, so they came to report the good news!" the old man explained.

"Oh! That's such a happy event! We should congratulate the scholar who passed the exam." Gu Chan said with relief.

In ancient times like this, if a scholar could stand out in the imperial examination, his ten years of hard study would not have been wasted.

This is indeed something worth being happy about for him.
