I’m Hui Tai Lang Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Toy

The wound opened up once again. It was originally a very serious injury. He doesn’t even need to think about going out today even with the Crystal Stone.

“Then how do I cultivate?”

“Close your eyes and slowly feel the spirit power within the air. Use your own thoughts to drag and absorb it into your own body. The Crystal Stone will automatically collect it up!”

I really want to try cultivating like the main characters of other transmigration novels. I may even directly cultivate to the degree of Innate experts if I spend a day.

I closed my eyes following what Yao Yao said. Sure enough, I felt as if there were a lot of bright dots surrounding me. Red, blue, dusty yellow, and gold… I thought about them melting into my body. They changed directions and started to move toward me as expected. But this speed is too slow. An entire half an hour went by and only then did I have a few blue and red dots merging into my body.

“Too slow!” I argued noisily. “It’s pretty much turtle speed!”

“Slow is normal. You don’t even have any lineage. You won’t even be able to sense the spirit power if it weren’t for that Crystal Stone!”

“What should I do then?”

“Switch lineages of course!” Yao Yao casually answered.

System Mission started up at this moment.

“System Main Mission 2: Solo kill a demon beast, grade not limited. Mission Reward: Snow Wolf Lineage.”

“Speaking of it, how is the Snow Wolf Lineage?” I continued to ask. This is about my own interests, I cannot be sloppy.

“The Snow Wolf Lineage is quite slag. The demon beast lineage is divided into four grades: fierce beast, barbarian beast, spirit beast and mystical beast. The Snow Wolf lineage is the most inferior since their limit is the nine Acquired Levels!” Yao Yao slowly explained. She soon noticed the unwilling expression on my face, “What? You want the mythical beast ones?”

“Yes!”

The Mythical beast lineage, you know it’s first-rate by just hearing it!

Greed isn’t just the nature of man, it’s also the nature of wolves.

“Want me to get you a Mission for a mythical beast lineage?” Yao Yao asked while beaming.

She smiled with her eyes curved like moons, so cute!

But will I be subdued by the old loli’s cutesy act?

Certainly not!

A fierce beast level lineage almost took this boss’s life, which involved me dueling two hundred young snow wolves. I would’ve had to duel with two hundred young mythical beasts if it was the mythical beast lineage.

Taking that Mission means never completing it.

I shook my head and answered, “I am already content having a fierce beast lineage. I don’t need it!”

“At least you’re smart. Mythical beast cubs are at least Innate level in strength when they are first born. You can only throw away your life with your current level of strength.

“Then can I get mythical beast lineage?”

“It is possible in theory!” Yao Yao nodded her head and said, “The lineage can continuously evolve since you have the Attributeless Crystal Stone. All skills of any attribute can be gained through exchanging in the System in this world. Take your time and you can become one of the strongest in this world!”

Yao Yao’s encouragement made me very comfortable. Excitement covered my entire body.

“Yao Yao, there’s something I want to ask you!”

“What do you want to ask?”

“Can the System allow me to turn into a human?”

“I’m very sorry, the System does not have any sort of function like that”

“Why?”

“This is the System invented by Doctor Hui Tai Lang. It can change and update information at any time. Doctor Hui Tai Lang has always aligned with the wolf race and is proud of it. Therefore, any functions of changing into another race is prohibited!”

“In other words…” I was simply shocked hearing this bad news. It’s just like thunder from clear sky.

“In other words, the System will not help you gain a human form!” Yao Yao decisively exposed reality, giving me a heavy blow.

I went silent for a long time as I layed on the floor. In this dark cave, I could not see the light.

Young girl of the human race, my most beloved. Don’t tell me we are destined to meet, but not fated to be together in this life?

I felt a knife-like pain being twisted in my heart. My cherished dreams of human beauties had been lost.

I do indeed like the free and unconfined ways of demon beasts in the Snow Wolf packs. Yet I also recognized the cruel compet.i.tion between demon beasts. You need to get at least one mate. My aesthetic conceptions still remains with human beauties.

But this idea had been shattered today.

“Don’t tell me you want to marry a human girl?!” Yao Yao pursed her lips and tried asking. “Or you’re imagining it like those written novels? Finding a whole group of beauties and opening a large harem?”

I raised my head and stared at her and thought, “How did you know?”

“So I guessed correctly?” Yao Yao asked in a cheerful mood.

By no means do I want to talk to her.

“Why don’t you just marry a beauty from the wolf race? I think that Miki is pretty good!”

Yao Yao was teasing me, I knew this.

“I don’t like long furred females.”

“What’s wrong with long fur! You don’t need a blanket for winter, since what you’re hugging is a heater!”

“I don’t like females who don’t wear clothes!”

“It’s convenient when it’s time to continue the ancestral bloodline! Besides, you can give her a set of clothes to wear!”

“……”

“What else do you want to request?” Yao Yao asked with a happy heehee.

Heehee, heehee, with one look you know that she isn’t something good.

“Don’t talk about me anymore, say something about yourself a little!” I quickly changed the subject and asked, “Yao Yao, does Doctor Hui Tai Lang have a wife named Hong Tai Lang?”

“He does!” Yao Yao slanted her head, obviously a bit unhappy.

“And he has a son named Xiao Hui Hui Right?”

“He does?”

“Doctor Hui Tai Lan is hen-pecked? Just like in the cartoons?”

“Don’t link it to cartoons! There’s still a lot of differences between Doctor Hui Tai Lang’s world and that cartoon! It’s only a coincidence after processing it!”

“Oh, and Doctor Hui Tai Lan often says ‘I’ll be back’ right?”

“That’s merely coincidental.” Yao Yao said through gritted teeth.

Her face had a clear sign of impatience.

I am a chatterbox. I admit that.

“Did Hong Tai Lang ever get to eat sheep meat?”  I continued to ask like I was without knowing of hards.h.i.+p.

“Didn’t I tell you that everything from the cartoon is a coincidence? Only a bit of it is true!” Yao Yao finally couldn’t endure it anymore and loudly shouted, “It is similar, not facts! Why are you like Tang Seng from 《Journey to the West》?”

“You watched《Journey to the West》 before?” I was surprised. Yao Yao wasn’t a product of this world?

How did she know of Stephen Chow’s masterpiece?

“How do you know that movie?”

“I will tell you. I had stayed on Earth for over ten years before. I heard your thoughts of not wanting to live. So, I crushed you to death to bring you to this world?”

Yao Yao really couldn’t keep her cool, saying things that she shouldn’t have said.

As for being crushed to death, I don’t mind it. I will die sooner or later, what’s important is that I’m alive now.

“So what kind of movies have you seen? Do you like movies from Hong Kong or Hollywood? I think Lam Ching Ying’s works are a whole lot better than Hollywood’s cla.s.sics! What do you think?”

I don’t know why, but my mouth wouldn’t stop as I laid in this darkly painted cave. Remembering that I can only be a wolf in this life, I couldn’t stop recalling things from back then.

I’m really afraid that one day I will forget the past.

“So noisy, so noisy! Do you believe or not that I will dig out your intestines and strangle you with it?” Yao Yao’s beautiful face twisted together and her head swung around as she held it.

I feel a bit of sympathy for her.

I asked in curiosity, “Aren’t you virtual? How do you dig out my intestines?”

“Why do you have so much to say?” Yao Yao finally couldn’t stand it anymore and asked.

“Why?” I also felt that I was somewhat strange today after thinking about it for a while. I buried my head into my body and sadly said, “You don’t know how difficult it is to be a wolf. I want to talk to the same species next to me, but I can’t talk and the other side can’t understand me. Only you can communicate with me in this world!”

“You will be asleep for two months when you fall asleep. I will go crazy from enduring with no one to talk to me. If it weren’t for me continuing to challenge and not allowing my imagination to go wild, I’m afraid I would have fallen apart!” I continued to nag and speak the words from my heart, “I’m afraid that I can only be a wolf in this life. I’m afraid of forever losing my ability to speak, fear of losing my ability to reflect, fear of becoming a wild beast! Do you understand?”

“I understand, you just want me to accompany you and talk to you, right?” Yao Yao asked while staring at me.

“Yes, when people got stranded on the Robinson Crusoe Island, there was still Friday. They could talk to Friday, the main character in《Cast Away》. In order to not let himself go insane, he started talking to the volleyball. I just want to find a target to say everything on my mind. Can you be my talking target?”

I opened my wolf eyes wide. I sincerely asked after saying a whole bunch of words from the bottom of my heart.

“No, this Older sister will not keep you company for chats!”

This is the Yao Yao with a heart of stone. Her heart has already been weathered and rotted into slag after living for thousands of years.

Yao Yao creased her brows and pondered over it, “I can somewhat fulfill your request. After all, wolves that are smart like you in this world, there is only one. It really isn’t worth it if you were to go crazy!”

To be honest, I hate this kind of turn in conversations. It’s bad for the heart if it comes around too much.

However I was already satisfied. Queen Yao Yao’s mercy is so hard to come by, and she agreed to take out her valuable time to talk to me.

“Thank you Sister Yao Yao!” I a.s.sumed a henchman att.i.tude and wagged my half-tail.

When asking someone for help, you must get off your high horse.

Although the other isn’t human.

“You’re welcome, this is also for me to ponder over!”

Queen Yao Yao didn’t let me kneel. I decided to treat her in a friendly manner.

“I’ll give you this. I’ll go to sleep now, we’ll see each other again when the Mission is completed!”

Why did she just leave like this?

Didn’t she say she will stay and chat with me?

I was just about to ask why Yao Yao wasn’t keeping her promise when something fell from mid air and smashed into my head.

Yao Yao had disappeared from the screen by the time I reacted.

That thing is a toy, an upright walking wolf wearing bright red lipstick——Hong Tai Lang!

My mind suddenly couldn’t react, what kind of situation is this? Why would you send this to me?

I am not a child, but a big bad wolf.

I angrily patted the toy once.

“Honey, did you catch a little sheep yet?”

I was stunned by such a familiar voice. Exactly like the cartoon, sugary.

I patted it again. Sure enough, there was sound again.

“Hui Tai Lang, I want to eat sheep!”

“Hui Tai Lang, are you lonely? Do you want me to talk to you? Say it, I’ll listen!”

I felt as if my blood vessels were going to explode!

I really, really want to bite Yao Yao to death. Bite her to death a hundred times!

This hateful woman! This malicious woman!

I ruthlessly swatted the toy flying. The toy crashed into the wall and fell, constantly shouting, “You dare to do something to this old lady? Do you not want to live anymore?! Go catch sheep!”

I almost went on a rampage hearing this sentence.
