"Don't panic! I'm just testing if this cross works like this..."
Seeing that Dai Lele was still in a daze, Xiao He kindly explained.
"It's just an egg anyway! If it revives, we can have an extra meal, right?"
"What the hell is this extra meal?!" Dai Lele glared at him. "I've noticed you've got a thing for eggs?!"
Before Xiao He could speak, a sudden sound of an eggshell cracking rang out.
The two of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at the egg embedded in the rock.
The original rocky texture of the eggshell has been replaced by a pure white smoothness, making it look like it has just come out of the oven.
It's crystal clear, making you want to peel it open and take a bite.
Perhaps it is this powerful life force that is "catalyzing" the growth of life inside the eggshell.
at last,
With a "pop" sound.
The membrane beneath the crack was finally pushed open by a bald head.
Although the eggshell is white, the little guy is very black.
Its entire body was covered in skin like a black chicken, except for a small patch of white in its eyes which was also covered by black eyelids, and its open mouth was just like that of a Black Mamba.
"This..." The two looked at each other blankly.
Should we just let it go? What if it attacks people after it opens its eyes?
Kill it? I can't bear to kill such a cute little thing.
"Adopt it?" These two people clearly had never owned a pet before; they even hesitated over how to lift it out of the crevice in the rocks.
"Hurry up and do it! My time is almost up!" Dai Lele urged.
Xiao He frowned and disgustedly reached into the broken eggshell.
There was some expired herbal jelly-like mucus sticking to the inside of the eggshell, so when he took the cub out, even Dai Lele, who wasn't a germaphobe, kept her distance from him.
"Waaah...waaah..."
The cubs' cries are peculiar, with a high pitch but a deep timbre.
It feels like an epic.
Always a gossip, Dai Lele casually posted ten photos in the group chat, telling her friends that someone had caught a "pet" of unknown origin.
Xiao He didn't even think about it. He lived a very rough life himself, so he didn't care whether this cub was delicate or not.
Pinch its wing bones with both hands, stretch them directly into the river water outside the thin ice, shake it a couple of times, and it'll be clean enough.
"Alright, you can hug me now, here you can hug me!"
"No way! It's so ugly!" Dai Lele stepped back a little further.
"No, no, you hold it, that way it will feel like it has a mother..."
"Pah! Can't you be its mother too?!" Dai Lele interrupted him directly.
The two stared at each other for a long time, then Xiao He slapped his forehead and said, "Oh."
There's no way around it, Dai Lele only likes pretty things.
He could only use the cloud shawl he had picked up earlier as a blanket to wrap the wrinkled dragon cub.
It's not certain whether they'll survive!
Who knows what the rules are for this "resurrection spell"?
This egg isn't from the century-old category; it's something buried in the annals of history for tens of thousands of years. But speaking of which, the "Dragon King" that was resurrected was also from the tens of thousands of years ago.
Perhaps it was because it exceeded its lifespan that the Resurrection Cross could not withstand the force and shattered into pieces, a situation completely different from how it was used by other believers.
[Hore: Great, my brother Xiao has an innate maternal glow!]
[Wang Xuefeng: That's great, we already have a son, when can we have one too? @Dai Lele]
【Dai Lele: Rolled Edge】
[Xiao He: What son? This is a mother dragon.]
[Wang Xuefeng: Okay, so it's your daughter.]
Listening to the bickering, Dai Lele suddenly looked bewildered. She looked at Xiao He and asked, "How do you know it's female?"
"this?"
Xiao He was also at a loss.
How did I know?
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"I don't know!" Xiao He exclaimed in shock. "I don't know how I could know, but I just know!"
"Alright!"
Dai Lele stopped arguing and continued walking forward with him.
For a fleeting moment, she vaguely sensed a fluctuation of ice element.
In this underground river, which is now unknown how many meters deep, it is clearly either an ice mage or an ice slime.
Given Xiao He's earlier deduction, she was even more convinced that it was a human being.
