The wind on the Snow Star was bone-chillingly cold, and all that could be seen was white. Chu Yi, who was only seven years old, jumped down from the cliff, his dark eyes filled with a resolute will.
The cold wind rushed into his nostrils, and the feeling of suffocation from being unable to breathe and the feeling of weightlessness from falling from a high altitude came over him rapidly. His survival instinct made him subconsciously reach out and grab the cliff.
The cliff covered with snow and ice was sharp and slippery. The flesh of his hands was cut in just an instant, and the whole insect fell down while rubbing all the way. Snow and rocks were startled and fell down one after another. A winding trail of blood meandered on the pure white cliff. It was not until Chu Yi clenched the protruding stones and cracks on the cliff and hung in the air swaying that the blood traces stopped.
Chu Yi woke up the moment he felt severe pain in his hand. He lowered his eyes to look at the bottomless depths below. The most striking thing on his pale face was a pair of eyes that were pure black and remained calm even in such a situation.
Chu Yi resisted his instinct to survive, pushed his feet against the cliff, and at the same time, his hands loosened their grip on the rocks and cracks, and the whole insect fell down again.
Seeing Chu Yi falling from a high altitude on the snow, Wei An's big blue eyes were full of anxiety. He ran forward with his short legs, exclaiming, as if he wanted to catch him.
When Wei An ran to the bottom of the cliff, Chu Yi was already sitting on the ground covered in blood. He was panting rapidly, trying to calm down, his dark eyes quietly watching Wei An who was staggering towards him in the snow.
He failed. As he fell, he reached out several times to try to grab hold of anything he could, rocks, branches, and cracks. However, his strong desire to survive and his instinct of struggling for survival over the years made it impossible for him to pin his hopes of survival on the pair of unexpanded bone wings.
Wei An squatted in front of him with tears in his blue eyes. "Blood, it hurts~"
As he spoke, he frantically dug out his pain-relieving candy from the space and stuffed it into Chu Yi's mouth, "Take it and the pain will go away."
Shang You and the others also ran up and hurriedly helped Chu Yi up. While arguing about whether to go to the hospital or bandage him first, they helped him walk forward.
Chu Yi brushed their hands away, said sorry to them softly with the candy in his mouth, turned around and walked towards the cliff stubbornly and persistently.
Wei An raised his foot to catch up, but Alhandra held his shoulder. He looked up at his fat face in confusion and said in a childish voice, "Father Xiong, Chu Yi is injured and needs to go to the hospital."
Alhandra squatted down and held his little hand, and felt relieved when he found it was warm.
"That's his choice." He patted Wei'an's little head. "We can worry about him, but we can't stop him."
Wei An's blue eyes were full of confusion. Obviously, he didn't understand, but he still stood obediently beside his father, looking at his little friend on the cliff worriedly.
Once, twice, three times, every time he failed, Wei'an, Shang You, and Shang Yan would run up to help him up.
Wei An didn't understand. Chu Yi's hands and lips were clearly trembling with pain, so why did he keep climbing so high and falling down again and again?
Is Chu Yi a little stupid?
"He's not stupid." Shang Yan vaguely understood something and explained to Wei An in a low voice, "He probably wants to use this method to force himself to spread his bone wings."
“I don’t have to do this when I spread my wings?” Wei An wondered.
"Because he is different from us." Shang Yan touched his face and continued after noticing his gentleness, "He has scales on his face, and his skin is too white. He must have the genes of the Bai people. These things make it difficult for him to spread his bone wings."
"Oh." Wei An nodded to show that he understood.
He didn't understand the rest, he only understood that Chu Yi was not stupid.
I don't know how many times I jumped, how many wounds I was left by the cliffs.
Until Wei An could hardly count anymore, until the sun was about to set below the horizon, until Chu Yi fell vertically from the cliff with all his strength exhausted, and Quan Yan and the others spread their bone wings to catch him.
He finally spread his bone wings!
A pair of bony wings that are the same as those of all female insects, pitch black, sharp, and full of oppression just when spread out.
He stayed in the air for just a moment, and in the next second he rushed straight into the sky, sticking to the cliff where he had fallen and was covered in bruises. He flew high into the sky, higher than the cliff, and higher than the sun and moon at dusk.
Wei An looked up at the scene blankly, an emotion he didn't understand surging in his small chest.
Alhandra touched his head, with a hint of relief in his tone, "Look, he has broken out of his cocoon!"
After flying around in the sky, Chu Yi collapsed exhausted on the snow. He was covered in blood and his clothes were torn to shreds. Only his pair of pure black eyes had lost their deadness and heaviness. They were as pure as the night sky at this moment, clean and bright.
…………
On the way to the residence on Snow Star, Wei An deliberately sat next to Chu Yi and stuffed the painkillers in his hand into his mouth. After stuffing them into his mouth, there was a little curiosity in his eyes, "Does it hurt?"
Chu Yi puffed out his bulging cheeks and nodded, "It hurts."
Wei An frowned, "I feel pain too."
Hearing him say it hurt, Chu Yi became visibly nervous, and with his torn hands stretched out, he dared not touch him, "Where does it hurt? Did you fall?"
"I didn't fall." Wei An pointed at his hand and wrinkled his nose. "It hurts when I see your hand."
Chu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and hid his hand in his sleeve, "It won't hurt if you can't see it."
Wei An tilted his head and stared at his face. He was as strange as his brothers and was not afraid of pain at all.
Cen Wei, who had moved over at some point, lazily put his chin on Wei An's shoulder, squinted his eyes and began to sleep.
Quan Yu, who saw this scene, couldn't stand it anymore, so he ran over and squeezed into Wei An's arms and refused to get out.
Wei An happily reached out and hugged Quan Yu, and rubbed his little face.
Chu Yi watched this scene quietly at the side. He became more and more sleepy, so he leaned against the window, closed his eyes and took a rest.
He didn't know it when he was asleep, but he leaned on Vian's other shoulder while he was sleeping.
With Cen Wei on the left and Chu Yi on the right, Wei'an, who had Quan Yu in his arms, puffed out his cheeks and shook his feet. They really weren't afraid of crushing Wei'an at all.
Papal Star, who was watching this scene, smiled and took a picture of it.
The next second, Shang You, Shang Yan, Klilochuan and Naiman all ran behind Wei An and made funny movements, asking Papalxing to take pictures for them.
After taking a few pictures, Quan Yan, Quan Ci, and Quan Fan also came over and poked Wei An's face to take pictures while he was unable to move.
Wei An was not angry and cooperated with them with a smile on his eyes.
Alhandra, Shang Ying, Cliffy and other insects became interested in taking pictures when they saw them taking pictures and joined them.
In the end, Papal Star simply turned on the selfie function and joined the photo-taking team.
After returning to his residence and receiving treatment, Chu Yi, while playing with Wei An and the others, saw a photo of himself falling asleep and drooling on Wei An's shoulder. He froze and his face turned redder.
Looking at his red face, Wei An remembered his own red face when he had a fever. He jumped up from the carpet and turned around to shout, "Father Xiong, Chu Yi has a fever."
Chu Yi, who was being watched miserably because of his "fever", was so embarrassed that he spread his bone wings and buried himself in them. No matter how Ren Weian shouted, he couldn't get out.
Papalxing smiled and touched Wei'an's head, then met his puzzled gaze and explained, "This is because you are shy."
"Oh." Wei An nodded in sudden realization. It turned out that Chu Yi was so easily shy!
The night sky of the Snow Star is the brightest and cleanest. It is like the white snow that can cleanse the soul and soothe unhealed wounds.
After a good night's sleep, Wei An was full of energy at dawn, wearing his light yellow furry duckling clothes and running outside with his short legs.
Alhandra grabbed him by the back of his collar and lifted him up, "Do you know where we are going today?"
"I know." Wei An fiddled with his hands and feet, "We need to go to the egg nursery to guide the little bugs to hatch."
He used his hands to make the motion of breaking a shell, and the fat on his fair face that had not yet disappeared trembled.
One of Xuexing's male insects had an accident and was temporarily unable to guide the eggs to hatch this month. Xuexing originally planned to rearrange the order in which the male insects guided the eggs to hatch. Alhandra happened to know about this and took the matter over thinking of giving Wei An a workout.
They set out in the morning light and arrived at their destination at almost noon.
This egg nursery is different from the one that Vian saw last time, which seemed to be located in the forest. This egg nursery was carved out of a huge piece of natural ice crystal, which is very beautiful and spectacular.
Guiding the eggs to hatch is the male insect's responsibility in the Zerg clan, and no male insect will shirk this responsibility. Even though some male insects are really bad and this will shorten their lifespan, they still take on this responsibility with curses and without a trace of perfunctoriness.
There are thousands of egg-raising rooms in the egg-raising garden, each of which contains hundreds or even thousands of fully developed insect eggs waiting to hatch.
Wei'an held his father's hand and came to the egg-laying room in the center. His chubby little face subconsciously frowned when he saw the neatly arranged insect eggs. He had to act like a brother.
Shang You and the others also subconsciously frowned. Although they had never been to the egg-laying room, they had all learned and seen what it looked like when insect eggs hatched in the larvae garden.
There are insects here that are smaller than them, so they have to look like big insects, otherwise they will be laughed at.
As soon as Cen Wei entered the room, he found a place to sit nearby, looking like he never got enough sleep.
It was also the first time for Quan Yan and his friends to come to the egg farm. The moment they came in, their eyes were all on Wei An, who was standing in the center, being led by Alhandra.
Wei An, who was still a baby at the age of four and a half, took on the responsibility of a male insect for the first time on this day.
Alhandra stood beside him to keep him company in case anything went wrong.
Wei An followed the movements of Uncle Papalok that he had seen before, closed his deep blue eyes, and then released his mental power as his father had taught him.
Those fat little tentacles that the female insects cannot see but the male insects can clearly see continue to extend outwards and then split into thousands of threads of mental power.
They fell on every egg in this egg-breeding room, on every egg-breeding room in this egg-breeding garden, and on Quan Yan, Quan Ci, Quan Fan, Quan Yu, Cen Wei, Shang Yan, Chu Yi and the female insects who were waiting outside the egg-breeding garden to pick up their young.
The female insects surrounding the egg-raising garden seemed to have noticed something and suddenly looked up into the egg-raising garden.
Quan Yan, Quan Ci and the others also noticed something and stared closely at Wei An who was standing in the center.
Even Cen Wei, who was dozing off in the corner, opened his lavender eyes and looked in the direction of Wei An.
At the same time, the EY in their bodies and in the insect eggs were being extracted at an extremely fast speed.
In just a moment, the insect sources in their bodies became as quiet as when they were just born.
The female insects outside the egg-breeding garden were shocked and confused. How did the restlessness of their insect source calm down? !
Quan Yan and the others, who understood the source of all this, were speechless for a moment.
The sunlight outside the window was reflected by the ice crystals and fell onto Wei An's face. He closed his eyes, and there was no expression on his chubby face. Although he was wearing a cute cream-colored duck plush outfit, at this moment he became as distant and far away as the moonlight.
“Crack!”
“Crack!”
The sounds of insect eggs cracking rang out one after another. When the female insects hatched from the eggs, when their bright eyes opened one by one, when they were given life and the right to live, a long-lasting and tremendous shock enveloped Chu Yi.
It was a shock to life, a shock to the incredible ability of male insects.
His heart began to beat loudly, and for the first time he realized why there was such an unreasonable existence of protecting male insects in the Zerg's genes.
