Chapter 118

Just then, he suddenly felt it was a bit noisy.

He could clearly hear the sound of water flowing in the pipes, the sound of Yan Kexing making breakfast outside, and the various noises made by the animals in the house.

Logically speaking, he should have gotten used to these sounds by now, but for some reason today they felt particularly unsettling, as if they were a bit jarring.

He reached out to cover his ears, but as soon as he did, he felt something was off. They felt soft, furry, and a little cold.

He instinctively twitched, and the pain traveled clearly from his ear to his brain.

The pain jolted him awake.

He didn't care about anything else for a moment and ran barefoot into the bathroom.

Shi Wen standing in the bathroom.

In the bathroom mirror, a pair of furry white animal ears appeared where his ears should have been.

His ears are long and pointed; if you don't look closely, you might think he's wearing bows or something similar on either side of his ears.

He tugged at it, and the pain clearly told him that he wasn't mistaken; his ear had indeed turned into this strange shape.

He yelled, covering his ears and scrambling to find Yan Kexing: "Yan Kexing, look at my ears! My ears have turned into this strange shape for some reason?!"

As he spoke, Shi Wen lowered his head and showed Yan Kexing his strange ears.

Yan Kexing reached out and rubbed Shi Wen's ears. "Don't worry, it's just a temporary Beast Transformation phenomenon."

Shi Wen felt his ears being rubbed until they were very numb and tingly. He couldn't stand it, so he covered his ears and took a step back, moving away from Yan Kexing: "Really?"

Yan Kexing nodded.

Shi Wen put his hand down, and his thick, pointed ears twitched, making him want to cry, "Hey, no, how am I supposed to go out with these big ears?"

Yan Kexing: "I'll just have to wear a hat to cover it up."

Shi Wen reached out and squeezed the ear. "Can't it go back by itself? I still want a human ear."

Yan Kexing: "You're not familiar with the Beast Transformation phenomenon yet; it may take some time."

"How long is 'a period of time'?" Shi Wen looked at Yan Kexing expectantly, "Ten days or eight days?"

Yan Kexing tactfully, "At the shortest, ten or eight days."

Shi Wen's heart sank. "What if it grows long?"

Yan Kexing: "It might take six months to a year."

"Really?" Shi Wen sighed. "How am I supposed to go out and interact with people then?"

Shi Wen pestered Yan Kexing to do all sorts of experiments, rubbing and pinching his ears, but ultimately found that his ears still couldn't be retracted.

It seemed as if it had been with him since birth, appearing so natural.

He could even control his large animal ears with such dexterity, shaking and curling them as he pleased, more skillfully than animals like sheep or pigs.

Having exhausted all other options, Shi Wen could only report to Zhu Ji, with great disappointment, that his ears had turned into animal ears.

Zhu Ji: "Really? Quickly turn on the video and let me see."

Shi Wen skeptically, "Why do I hear a hint of schadenfreude in your voice?"

"How could that be? Beast Transformation so quickly? That's a good thing," Zhu Ji said. "It's probably because you ate two plates of roasted asparagus and mushrooms. They're Variant Ingredients, so they're quite high in energy."

Shi Wen's ears drooped. "I should have known better than to eat it."

Zhu Ji suppressed a laugh, took a picture of him, and asked him to describe his feelings, saying he would archive it for him.

Zhu Ji: "Don't make that face. Aren't your ears cute? They're so fluffy, I just want to pinch them."

Shi Wen, "Would you like it to grow on your body?"

"Of course I want it, why wouldn't I?" Zhu Ji chuckled. "The Beast Transformation characteristics are something many Abilities with beast blood would kill for."

Shi Wen, "I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm too tired."

Shi Wen the phone hang up, I subconsciously twitched my ear, feeling relieved that the phone was finally gone from my ear.

When he realized he had twitched his ears, he reached out and grabbed the two still-flapping animal ears with a dark expression.

Breakfast for the little ones is ready. Shi Wen takes the bucket and their breakfast out to feed them.

He grew animal ears, and the little creatures seemed to be getting to know him all over again, following him around and staring intently at his ears.

I sometimes feel like covering my ears with my hands Shi Wen.

After realizing that covering his ears wasn't working, he reached out and tugged at the Langwa's ear. "Stop being curious, take your hands off."

Langwa: "Woof!"

Shi Wen quickly pinched its muzzle. "Don't bark, your voice is a bit loud."

Langwa: "Woo."

Shi Wen them carrying buckets to feed them, and I couldn't help but twitch my ears to shoo away the mosquitoes.

Oh, ears are so convenient! What if he gets used to animal ears?

Chapter 118

Ever since Shi Wen's ears turned into animal ears, he hasn't liked going out much.

He always wears a hat when he needs to go out, such as when he goes out to send a package.

Taking advantage of his free time, he harvested honey and vegetables, and sent out the monthly gift packages for the members.

He also received a package when he sent it.

That was a large bundle of wolfberry seedlings sent by Xiao Wukati, the owner of the mutton shop.

Xiao Wukati a letter expressing his special gratitude for their help in moving the Przewalski's horses, and saying that the mutton soup shop now has enough black goji berries to use.

These three-year-old black goji berry seedlings are for him. They are all good goji berry seedlings from the goji berry garden, and the fruits they produce are big and sweet. I hope he likes them.

Shi Wen thanked them on WeChat and then planted the goji berry seedlings in the backyard.

His backyard only had vegetables, but now he's planted about ten goji berry bushes, which also make a nice fence. Occasionally, Bress chickens will come over here, and the fence can keep them out.

After Shi Wen them, I buried sheep manure in their graves, hoping they would grow well and produce delicious goji berries next year.

In July, ewes gradually enter their estrus cycle, and it's time to breed them again.
