Chen Zhe said "oh" and silently noted what he saw. After the person holding the egg left, he immediately returned home, thinking that he should tell Ye Yunxi and the others about it.
At this moment, Ye Yunxi and the others were tidying up their own yard and did not notice that someone from the base had brought back a strange egg.
Chen Zhe ran back to the courtyard, panting heavily. Gu Qingqing saw that Chen Zhe was drenched in sweat and asked him something.
"Zhe, what's wrong with you? Is someone chasing you?"
Chen Zhe took a breath and said, "It's not that someone is chasing me, but that I've discovered something incredible."
"Oh? What is it? Tell me about it." Gu Qingqing became interested after hearing Chen Zhe's words.
"Qingqing, go and call everyone over. I want to tell you something. I think it's good for everyone to know about this."
"Okay, then wait a moment." Gu Qingqing said and ran off to call Fu Heng and the others over.
Ye Yunxi looked at Chen Zhe, wanting to ask but not asking.
After everyone had arrived in the courtyard, Chen Zhe began to speak to them.
"You know what? I just saw a lot of people gathered up ahead, and I thought something had happened, but guess what?"
Fu Xiaoya said anxiously, "Oh dear, don't keep me in suspense, tell me what happened."
Chen Zhe paused for a moment and continued, "I noticed about ten people holding an egg, a very large egg."
The group looked bewildered and asked, "Egg? What egg?"
"I don't know either, but it's a really big one, about the size of a three or four-year-old child. I heard they're going to take it to a few base commanders to see what kind of egg it is. If it's edible, they'll harvest it in large quantities; if it's inedible, they'll at least know what it is and whether it's dangerous."
After hearing Chen Zhe's words, Ye Yunxi found it unbelievable that there was an egg as big as a three or four-year-old child.
After listening, Fu Heng fell into deep thought. He thought that the appearance of this egg was not simple.
"Ah Zhe, do you know when these eggs first appeared?"
Chen Zhe shook his head. "I didn't ask, so I'm not sure. But the fishing guys, I talked to them a few times these past few days, and they only appeared in the last couple of days; they weren't here before."
When Ye Yunxi heard Fu Heng ask this question, she knew that this matter was not simple.
"Aheng, what's on your mind?"
Fu Heng looked at Ye Yunxi and said, "I think the appearance of the eggs that A Zhe mentioned is not simple. They didn't exist before, and now they're starting to appear. It's very strange."
Ye Yunxi frowned. "Could it be Yan Luo?"
"Yanluo? He's come to Blue Star?" Ye Qi asked in surprise upon hearing these two words.
Fu Heng nodded at him. "Yes, he's been on Blue Star for a long time. He's here to cause me trouble. I've already seen him, but I don't know where he is now."
Ye Qi nodded. "Yes, I understand. So you think this egg is related to Yan Luo?"
"I just guess that only he could do something like this."
“I understand. If it really is him, then I can’t leave even more. I’ll stay and help you deal with him.”
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaoya said somewhat unhappily.
"Ye Qi, who needs your help? My brother is very capable, and Min Yu is here too. We don't need your help at all, okay? Just go back now!"
Ye Qi immediately put on a pitiful expression and stared at Fu Xiaoya.
Fu Xiaoya looked at Ye Qi's expression and felt a little annoyed. This guy always had this expression whenever he tried to get rid of her.
She waved her hand impatiently. "Fine, fine, I'll let you help me then."
Ye Qi smiled happily after receiving Fu Xiaoya's consent.
YES! That's great! I need to work even harder now to get Xiaoya to truly accept me.
When Fu Xiaoya saw Ye Qi smile, she felt a little happy too. She was about to smile back when she remembered something and gave Ye Qi a cold snort.
When Chen Zhe and the others saw this, they all chuckled at them.
Gu Qingqing said with a smile, "You two are really like sworn enemies."
Fu Xiaoya bristled. "Who's his enemy? I'm not!"
Zhang Jing chuckled to herself. "Yes, yes, you're not!"
Ye Qi found Fu Xiaoya's flustered state quite adorable.
Fu Heng ignored them and looked at Ye Qi.
"Ye Qi, you said you'd stay and help us, do you have a plan?"
Ye Qi nodded. "We can ask Jing Ran for some poison. I ran into her by chance before, and she told me that she has concocted a new type of poison. Just a little bit can cause a person's skin to ulcerate. If you drink the whole bottle, it will cause your whole body to ulcerate and you will die."
Chen Zhe exclaimed in surprise, "There's such a potent poison!"
Ye Qi nodded. "This is just a common one. Jing Ran has many kinds of medicines; this is just one of them."
Fu Heng nodded seriously. "Alright, let's wait for the base chief and the others to see what kind of egg it is, whether it's related to Yan Luo, what's inside, and whether it will harm humans if it hatches. We need to investigate that too. We'll ask Jing Ran for some later."
Afterwards, the group dispersed and did not continue discussing the topic.
Two days later, the base commanders still couldn't figure out what kind of egg it was. When it was placed on the table, it would glow at night and turn blue.
But during the day, it stops glowing and looks just like a regular egg, only larger.
Wu Jidi was extremely annoyed, and many researchers couldn't figure it out either.
Although they couldn't identify what kind of egg it was, the base leaders warned their men not to eat it before the egg was identified, lest they be poisoned.
People valued their lives and heeded the base's advice not to harvest eggs in large quantities.
However, the teams that catch fish and shrimp always manage to catch a few eggs.
At first there were a few, then there were more than a dozen.
As a result, the researchers were kept extremely busy by the several base directors, but they still couldn't find the answer.
After hearing about the eggs being caught for several days in a row, Fu Heng became very curious and took Ye Yunxi, Chen Zhe, and Zhang Haiyi to go fishing together.
Unexpectedly, several eggs were caught in one go.
After Fu Heng and his men pulled up the net, Fu Heng became somewhat unsettled after seeing the eggs clearly.
This further confirmed that these eggs were related to Yan Luo, and thinking back to what had happened at the base, it was all Yan Luo's doing.
He was worried that some kind of monster might be inside these eggs, so he told Ye Yunxi and the others.
"Xixi, I think this egg is a bit strange, I can't quite put my finger on it."
Ye Yunxi nodded, her expression turning serious.
"What's so strange about it? Tell me."
"Do you remember when we were at the base, snake eggs and insect eggs suddenly appeared? At first, we didn't know anything about them, and we kept cleaning them up, but there were still many the next day."
This egg is so big, it must be some kind of extraordinary creature. As for what it is, I have no idea. Anyway, we need to be careful.
