Chapter 28
Little Tiger Speaks
“Can you hear me?” Song Yun tried to think.
“Yes, yes, yes!” Yunbao nodded fiercely. “What is Master playing? Yunbao wants to play too!” The girl hugged Song Yun’s thigh.
Not only could Yunbao hear Song Yun’s voice, but she could also hear the ticking of the clock and the sound of the wind blowing gently… All the sounds became especially clear in her ears.
Song Yun, on the other hand, was stunned. She did not expect her disciple’s talent to be so shockingly high. It would not be an exaggeration to call her a genius! Even Song Yun, who believed that her talent was extremely high, had to admit defeat. Back then, it had taken her half a month to comprehend this incantation. Now, Yunbao had succeeded after only saying it once. Although the wand exploded, it must be because Yunbao’s talent was too monstrous that the wand could not withstand it.
“Monstrous? Does that mean a demon?” Yunbao asked curiously. She heard her master talking, but she looked shocked. She pestered Song Yun to teach her ventriloquism.
“Yunbao, you’ve already learned it!” Song Yun finally came back to her senses and looked at the child in front of her in surprise. “Master will teach you how to turn it off first.” Otherwise, if she listened to everything in detail, her mind would collapse.
Yunbao nodded, not fully understanding. She followed Song Yun’s example.

“Heaven without spirit, earth without spirit. Close ears!”
As soon as the child’s voice fell, Song Yun shouted in her heart, “Big idiot Yunbao!” However, the girl did not react. It seemed that she had succeeded again. What a genius! Song Yun thought.
“Yunbao, what Master taught you just now is the mind-listening technique. This can help you hear the thoughts of others, so when you want to hear the thoughts of a specific person, you can shout the incantation Master taught you just now in your heart. Just add that person’s name at the end. Remember to chant it silently in your heart and not be discovered by others!”
“Also,” Song Yun paused for a moment, “if someone wants to hurt you, your body will automatically receive that person’s thoughts! Do you understand?”
“Yes, yes! Yunbao understands!” The girl nodded and stretched out her chubby and small fingers. “First, the mnemonic is ‘Heavenly spirit, earthly spirit, ears open’. Second, you have to recite it silently in your heart and not be discovered by others. Third, add the other party’s name to whoever you want to hear. Fourth, if someone hurts Yunbao, Yunbao can directly hear their thoughts!”
Yunbao counted with her fingers and said it one by one. Her expression was especially serious, afraid that she would remember the wrong one.
“Yunbao is awesome!” Song Yun nodded, her eyes filled with pride. As expected of her disciple.
“That’s all for today’s lesson. I’ll teach you something interesting tonight!” Song Yun disappeared after saying that.
When Yunbao opened her eyes again, it was already past three in the afternoon. If she slept a little longer, Gu Zi would probably be back from school. She sat up and felt refreshed. Her hearing was much better than before. Even through the window, she could hear the birds outside.
“Rise and shine!”
Who was speaking? Yunbao heard an unfamiliar voice in her room. She looked around. Despite everything, the sudden appearance of a stranger’s voice in the room still frightened her.
“Who’s talking?” Yunbao mustered her courage and asked.
“Who’s talking? I’m afraid Yunbao has slept and woken up stupid.” The voice sounded again. This time, Yunbao followed the voice to the window, or more accurately, to the cage by the window.
Yunbao looked at Little Tiger with her big eyes. She wondered if Little Tiger had been talking just now. Why could she hear Little Tiger?
“Why is this silly girl staring at me? Is there bird poop on me?” Little Tiger turned its head and searched its own body. “No, I’m clean and still as handsome as before!”
“Little Tiger, did you speak?” Yunbao’s words startled Little Tiger.
“Yunbao can understand me?”
“Yes.”
This was a novelty. Parrots had their own language system, which was completely different from humans’. Therefore, parrots were extremely smart to be able to learn one or two words from humans. Little Tiger was considered to be gifted among parrots. It could understand human words, and learning human words was as easy as flipping its hand.
However, humans had a term called “hiding one’s weakness”. It did not want to be captured as an anomaly or sold to the circus. But now, Little Yunbao seemed to be able to understand its words under the premise that Little Tiger spoke parrot language.
“Little Tuger, when did learn to speak?” Yunbao lay beside the cage, just like how she usually murmured to Little Tiger, as if she did not realize that it was because of her.
