Chapter 99: Hitching a Flight

~8 min read 1,534 words

The Fire Tooth Dog got up early in the morning to rummage through its backpack, but after searching for a long time, it couldn't find the pair of sunglasses it wanted.

Its rummaging action paused, its head tilted, full of confusion.

It remembered that the flashy pink sunglasses were in the bag.

The Fire Tooth Dog didn't worry for long and turned directly to find Qiao Sang.

If you have something to do, finding your own Beast Tamer is the right thing to do.

The Fire Tooth Dog carried the backpack in its mouth and came before Qiao Sang, who was tying her ponytail.

"Ya!"

"Ya ya!"

Qiao Sang tied the last loop of the hair tie and said calmly: "That pair? I forgot where I put it too. You should wear those red sunglasses; they match the color of your fur, and they look good on you."

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost, who was just about to take off its ring, was stunned for a moment.

Didn't its Beast Tamer put that pair of pink sunglasses with it just last night?

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost looked toward its Beast Tamer and happened to see her winking at it.

It understood instantly.

Its Beast Tamer did it on purpose.

"Xun..."

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost subconsciously covered its mouth.

So this was a secret!

Upon hearing this, the Fire Tooth Dog immediately forgot about the sunglasses it wanted to find, lowered its head to rummage for the red triangular sunglasses, and put them on.

"Ya!"

After putting on the sunglasses, it wagged its tail and called out to Qiao Sang.

"They look really good!" Qiao Sang praised with full sincerity.

Compared to that pair of pink heart-shaped sunglasses, whichever pair it wore looked good.

"Ya."

The Fire Tooth Dog wagged its tail even more happily.

It was a pity there wasn't a full-length mirror like the one at home, otherwise, it would definitely have gone to take a look.

Qiao Sang was also someone who had participated in an official competition once, and facing this marathon relay race, she expressed that she was not panicked at all.

Anyway, she was just there to make up the numbers...

But when she arrived at the scene, she was still frightened by the scene of the competition.

Pingxiang Street.

The initial starting point of the competition.

I saw that both sides of the street, from the beginning to the end, were densely packed with people.

Looking up, the track made of floating clouds cast by flying-type pet beasts stretched from west to east, and one couldn't see the end of it at all.

On both sides of the floating cloud track, one could see dozens of Beast Tamers riding flying-type pet beasts.

I didn't know if they were staff members or just watching the fun.

Qiao Sang looked at the bustling crowd on both sides of the street and seriously suspected whether the entire population of Qitang Town had come.

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost lay on Qiao Sang's head, blinking its eyes and looking around curiously.

This was the first time it had seen so many people.

Soon, it made eye contact with several people.

Immediately after, those people all smiled at it.

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost was stunned, a little confused.

"Xun?"

In the past, when others made eye contact with it, they would fearfully look away.

Why was it different this time?

"A-Sang, come here to collect the equipment," Ye Ye Ranran said, waving at a place marked as the athlete's initial inspection entrance.

"I didn't expect so many people to come," Qiao Sang walked over and sighed.

"It should be that everyone in the town has come. Usually, there are no entertainment activities, and everyone basically won't miss this kind of competition about Beast Tamers," Ye Ye Ranran said.

Qiao Sang nodded. There are many Beast Tamers and many competitions in the city, and occasionally holding some small competitions, if there is no publicity, basically no one will care.

The Hundred New Competition is the best example.

And there are few Beast Tamers and few competitions in the town; you don't need special publicity for any wind or grass movement about Beast Tamer competitions, and people telling people can spread it everywhere.

"A-Sang, wait, don't be nervous, just keep a normal heart," the third uncle suddenly spoke up from the side.

Qiao Sang: "..."

Although she was surprised that so many people came, she really wasn't nervous; it wasn't her running...

"Ya Bao, are you nervous?" Qiao Sang lowered her head and asked.

"Ya."

The Fire Tooth Dog, wearing sunglasses, shook the short toe in the middle of its right claw with a cool look.

"Third uncle, we aren't nervous, you don't be nervous either," Qiao Sang looked up and said.

Third uncle: "... Hmm."

Qiao Sang stood in line, collected the two bib numbers, and tied them to the Fire Tooth Dog and the Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost.

The Fire Tooth Dog was number A071, and Little Treasure was number C166.

The starting of the bib numbers was marked with A, B, and C.

They represented the first track (land), the second track (river water), and the third track (sky), respectively.

This kind of bib number not only marks the individual competition number, but also contains a timing chip inside, which can be successfully read when passing through the timing point, thereby uploading the information to the timing background to calculate the competition results.

"I'm going to the second track first. Your third aunt and Ye Jingwen are waiting over there. We'll meet up when the time comes," the third uncle said.

"Third uncle, just go ahead with peace of mind, we're here," Ye Ye Ranran said.

Qiao Sang nodded in agreement.

The pet beasts the third uncle was participating with were the Roaring Swamp Crocodile and the Ink Fish, both belonging to the second track.

After the third uncle left, Ye Ye Ranran said: "I'll let Aunt Lin drive you to Jin Song Village. You know Aunt Lin too; she's the one who went to Huangming Mountain with me last time. She likes you quite a bit and has been mentioning you in front of me all the time recently."

Ye Ye Ranran's Desert Tail Fox was the first leg of the first track.

And Qiao Sang's Fire Tooth Dog was the second leg, in Jin Song Village, 10 kilometers away from the initial starting point.

"No need, I'll go myself. It's not good to trouble others. Besides, there are so many people on the street now, it's not easy to drive," Qiao Sang refused.

"Okay, then I'll call you when A-Mo is about to run to Jin Song Village," Ye Ye Ranran didn't force it.

30 minutes later, Qiao Sang regretted it.

She had no experience participating in this kind of competition for the first time.

Who could tell her why the distance between the first leg and the second leg had to be so far!

Qiao Sang pedaled her bicycle desperately, speeding on the street.

Has the competition started?

It must have started...

Don't tell me the Desert Tail Fox will have finished the first leg by the time I haven't even arrived!

"Ya!"

"Ya!"

The Fire Tooth Dog sat in the bicycle basket, shouting encouragement.

The Little Treasure-Hunting Ghost gripped Qiao Sang's hair tightly with its two short claws, its round eyes blown into thin slits by the wind.

Qiao Sang rode the bike, feeling panicked inside.

It would have been so good to ride in someone else's car.

Why did I ride a bicycle when I had nothing to do...

Now it's fine; I thought I was here to lie flat and just go through the motions, but now it seems even this going through the motions is a bit precarious...

"Beauty, want to hitch a flight?"

Qiao Sang looked up excitedly.

I saw a Large-Winged Sharp Sparrow flying above her, and there were two men and one woman sitting on it.

The man at the very front looked to be about 40 years old, and the man and woman sitting behind looked to be in their early 20s.

Qiao Sang shouted loudly while riding the bicycle: "I'm going to Jin Song Village, is it on the way!"

The Large-Winged Sharp Sparrow flew to her right side and followed.

The middle-aged man in his 40s above heard this and said happily: "On the way, on the way! They are also just going to Jin Song Village. I'll charge you 800, want to go?"

The two young men and women looked at each other tacitly; this was seeing that someone else was young and preparing to slaughter them.

The two of them together were 600 each, and he actually told a child 800.

Qiao Sang had never spent money to fly, but her mother was a professional at taking people to fly.

Although it was that kind of sightseeing flight, she still knew the price in this regard.

"Will you fly for 400!" Qiao Sang shouted.

The middle-aged man said decisively: "Fly!"

The two young people were stunned for a long time; the ones being slaughtered were actually themselves?! ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
