Chapter 87

Under the effect of Ali's 'spell', the two elephants gradually calmed down, no longer struggling desperately, as if they had somewhat resigned themselves to their fate.

Then, Ali had everyone slowly release the elephants, but he wrapped their necks and even their ears with vines to prevent them from going mad.

By the time the elephants finally stood up, standing restlessly by Ali's side, stomping their feet, nearly an hour had passed. Ali smiled at Lin Bei, revealing a row of neat white teeth, and whispered a few words.

"Sir," Zhen Jiu's face was also excited, "Ali said that these two long-nosed beasts are no longer very resistant and can be taken back to the village."

"Ask him what we need to pay attention to?"

Zhen Jiu nodded, listened carefully, and then said, "Sir, he said that the long-nosed beasts are still very cautious, so they must not be startled. It's best to feed and water them quickly. Also, the person who feeds and waters them should be the same person. When feeding, gently pat the long-nosed beast's body; it won't resist but will accept it. After a few days, the long-nosed beast will become familiar with the feeder's scent. If nothing goes wrong, the long-nosed beast won't run away at that time."

"Will they not running away mean they are tamed?"

Zhen Jiu said, "Ali said it's not enough yet; they need to be tamed slowly. However, ear rings can be put on the long-nosed beasts' ears, and then they can be tamed like oxen."

Ear rings? Lin Bei thought for a moment, thinking it must be something like a nose ring, indicating that the long-nosed beasts' weakness is in their ears.

So Lin Bei nodded, "Alright, do as he says. Now, should we take them back to the village? Can't I keep them?"

Zhen Jiu shook his head, "Sir, Ali said it's not possible. The long-nosed beasts were just caught, and if they hear the calls of other long-nosed beasts, they will become very agitated and easily run away."

"Alright, then let ten people drive these two long-nosed beasts back to the village."

Zhen Jiu added, "Sir, Ali also needs to go back; otherwise, the long-nosed beasts will easily run away."

Lin Bei thought, if Ali leaves, how can they catch more? Lin Bei had planned to catch all the elephants in the herd within a day, but now it seemed a bit unrealistic. After some thought, he said, "Since that's the case, let's all go back first. We'll deal with the long-nosed beasts after they are sent back to the village."

Since Lin Bei had spoken, the hunters naturally had no objections. Ali calmed the two elephants, and a few hunters carefully led them back slowly.

The elephants are naturally gentle, and with Ali's calming, the journey went smoothly without any incidents. They quickly arrived at the location of the school.

Without a doubt, the appearance of the two long-nosed beasts caused a sensation. The laborers stopped working and gathered around, pointing and marveling at the size of the long-nosed beasts.

Elephants are the largest land animals, and these two elephants were at least four meters tall, while the laborers, being ordinary people, were no more than 1.7 meters tall, making them half the height of the elephants. This was a significant difference, and it was no wonder they were surprised.

"Sir, you really caught the long-nosed beasts?" the laborers exclaimed.

"Sir is truly amazing, to catch such huge long-nosed beasts."

"Of course, Sir is the Dragon God, surely with supernatural powers. These long-nosed beasts, despite their size, are just ordinary wild animals and are no match for Sir. A spell is enough to catch them."

"Now it's good, with the long-nosed beasts, we can cultivate more land next year. Sir is truly a blessing to Xishan Village."

"Indeed, Sir is a blessing to Xishan Village, building the school and giving us mountain goods. Sir is truly the Dragon God incarnate."

The villagers were truly excited. Before, they called him the Great Demon Dragon, and now directly the Dragon God, a rapid upgrade.

An Zhongzhi also ran to Lin Bei's side, showering him with praise, clearly very excited.

"An Zhongzhi, take some people to send these two long-nosed beasts back to Xishan Village. Zhen Jiu, tell him what to pay attention to, An Zhongzhi, you need to remember."

Zhen Jiu detailed the precautions, and An Zhongzhi nodded continuously, firmly remembering them. Then, An Zhongzhi hesitated and said, "Sir, should we raise these two long-nosed beasts ourselves or give them to the farmers?"

Lin Bei thought for a moment and said, "You raise them first, but choose some clever and meticulous people from the villagers, both men and women. As long as they don't run away, take them to eat grass every day. If there's not enough grass, you can pay for some grass to feed them; they must not go hungry."

"Of course, I won't let them go hungry," An Zhongzhi nodded hurriedly, not daring to let them go hungry.

"After a few days, when the long-nosed beasts are calm, you can gradually let them pull carts or move things. You figure it out, alright?"

"Sure, Sir."

An Zhongzhi looked at the massive bodies of the two long-nosed beasts, beaming with joy. They must have great strength, and they will work efficiently. Most importantly, it's a matter of prestige. Other places don't have long-nosed beasts, but Xishan Village does. In the future, when this is mentioned, An Zhongzhi's back will be straight, and all of this is thanks to the Sir in front of him.

Zhen Jiu, listening to Lin Bei and An Zhongzhi talking, felt a bit anxious as they didn't mention the Zhen family business. So he quickly said, "Sir, my shopkeeper..."

"Oh, you mean the ten that Zhen Ding wants? Don't worry, take it slow. It's not just this one time. It's almost dark today. Tomorrow, we'll set out early and try to catch more. When the time comes, besides the villagers, they will be for your Zhen family business."

"Thank you, Sir, thank you, Sir." Zhen Jiu was relieved that the Sir hadn't forgotten about it.
