Monster Hunter: I can hear the monsters' thoughts

Chapter 273 Food, clothing and parents
While Lin Lin was feeding Dakong, Ye Zi naturally started chatting with Lin Lin about the topic of "parenting". During the conversation, she also learned about the troubles that this little gold-eating beast had brought to Lin Lin.

"Need a lot of meat? I can help with that!"

Ye Zi patted her chest, which was not thin but definitely not plump, and assured Lin Lin with confidence.

"Just be careful when I go out hunting. If I can bring back a Marutori Elf Deer or something, that should solve Daikong's food problem, right?"

"Huh? Really? Would this be too much trouble for you?"

Lin Lin felt a little embarrassed. After all, he was causing trouble for his teammates because of his personal affairs, right?

"What's the trouble? I'm so happy to be able to help you, Brother Lin Lin!"

Seeing Ye Zi’s excited face, Lin Lin didn’t say anything more and could only silently remember this friendship in his heart.

There are still many good people in the Monster Hunter world. Look at the King of the West in Flame Village. When he is facing something other than a monster, how gentle he is!
Lin Lin teased Dakong, and Yezi also felt a little eager, so he moved closer and stretched out his hand to touch its head. However, when Dakong saw a stranger approaching, he immediately put away his cute and silly look, grinned at Yezi and started breathing.

Then, it was hit hard by Lin Lin's bent fingers.

Although Lin Lin didn't use much strength, the fire dragon cub was much more resilient than a human cub. Lin Lin didn't deliberately restrain too much strength. This blow made it dizzy and shook its head. When it looked at Ye Zi again, its eyes suddenly became much clearer.

"She's your bread and butter. The delicious foie gras you just ate was made by her. Don't breathe on her!"

Maybe Dakong is very smart, maybe Lin Lin's superpowers came into play again, or maybe the time they spent together these days allowed Lin Lin and Dakong to establish a good understanding... In short, Dakong seemed to understand what Lin Lin meant. Not only did his eyes become clear when he looked at Ye Zi, but he also began to make that kind of coquettish whimpering sound from his mouth.

Ye Zi didn't notice Dakong's changes. Her attention was just attracted by the four words "parents who provide food and clothing" in Lin Lin's words, and then her brain involuntarily began to expand outward based on this keyword.

Parents provide food and clothing. The mother is her, and the father is undoubtedly Brother Lin Lin. Ah! So embarrassing! This is too fast, obviously... obviously, the relationship hasn't even been confirmed yet...

Hmm...wait, something seems wrong?
Ye Zi subconsciously recalled the ecological information related to fire dragons. It seemed that in the fire dragon family, the female fire dragon was responsible for building nests and raising chicks, while the male fire dragon was responsible for patrolling the territory and defending the nest. Although both sides would hunt, the frequency of the male fire dragon was much higher than that of the female fire dragon.

If that's the case, then it seems like she is the male fire dragon, and Brother Lin Lin is the female fire dragon?
Eh~ That's weird...

It was not until Lin Lin called her twice that Ye Zi came back to her senses from her daze, and then she noticed that Dakong's attitude towards her had changed 180 degrees.

The little guy is quite good at reading people's expressions...

Maybe it was because of Lin Lin’s words “parents who provide food and clothing”, but Ye Zi suddenly felt more comfortable with this “youngest of the family” and even developed a little love for him.

So she naturally reached out and gently stroked Dakong's head, and together with Lin Lin, she started to play with the child - although the child was a little older and his race was a little weird, but at least it looked like a real family.

It wasn't until Dakong was tired from playing and dozed off that Lin Lin put it back into the incubator where it was sleeping. "Speaking of which, Ye Zi, since you're here, I have something I want to ask you."

After settling Dakong down, Lin Lin seemed to remember something and suddenly took Ye Zi to the training ground.

"Eh? What can I ask for your advice, Brother Lin Lin?"

Ye Zi couldn't help but be a little surprised. Lin Linke had always been her goal. He was the strong man in her heart. How could he have something he needed to "ask" her for advice?
She calmed herself down and said, "Brother Lin Lin, just tell me! I will definitely do my best to help!"

Lin Lin scratched his head. "There's no need to be so formal. I've just been stuck in a rut researching new moves lately, and I wanted to see if you could offer any inspiration."

As he was speaking, Lin Lin had already walked to the training ground built by Iwata. Since he "expropriated" this ground, the number of wooden stakes being chopped down every day has increased significantly, greatly increasing the farm's demand for wood. Iwata even had to take time out to go to a nearby safe area to cut down some trees, so that there would still be enough wooden stakes available in the ground.

"Eh? Shield axe moves? But I don't know how to use a shield axe at all..."

Hearing that Lin Lin was researching new moves, Ye Zi didn't feel strange at all. In her heart, Brother Lin Lin was such a genius, there was nothing to be surprised about. What she cared about was that she didn't know how to use the shield axe and might not be able to help Brother Lin Lin.

"No, I've almost completed the specific framework. Now I'm stuck with just one last problem."

Lin Lin untied his wrist armor, revealing the insect box embedded inside, and showed it to Ye Zi:

"After Master Kevin's guidance on the other minor issues, I've basically fixed them, but I can't seem to fix the crucial silk thread. Since Kinsects are a specialty of your Flame Village, your understanding of them must be much better than mine, so I wanted to ask for your advice."

In fact, Ye Zi is not the only one from Yanhuo Village who is in Jieyun now. There is also a hammer user with a higher star level!

But firstly, his relationship with him was not that close, and secondly, the person in front of him was the future King Lieyan of the Great West. It was no exaggeration to say that his use of Kinsects was superb. His talent was unmatched in Yanhuo Village, where there were many talented people. Even her instructor Ni Tai could only surpass her in the development of moves and dragon-riding skills.

Lin Lin gave Ye Zi a general explanation of the working principle of his new move and his own ideas. When Ye Zi heard that it was about the use of Kinsects, he immediately gained confidence.

Apart from anything else, just talking about this, she is indeed quite confident.

She simply put down her insect stick and let the insect hunter find a cool place to lie down. Then she walked over and took Lin Lin's shield axe, and performed the "fully charged counterattack" action as he had described before.

"Hmm... this is how it's done... The wire needs to be fixed to the ground, so it should be like this..."

"Yeah, I totally understand now!"
