Chapter 632 Extra fifty-four
Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue counted the days, and always felt that their cubs were not yet ready to break their shells, and naturally they were extremely worried when the eggshells suddenly cracked. Not caring about anything at the moment, holding the phoenix egg, I went to a few elders for help.
The two rushed over with eggs in their arms, and the elders were also taken aback when they saw this appearance.
Elder Honghu was especially nervous. He didn’t know who to blame when he asked the reason. In the end, she still glared at Jiang Mo, although she knew that she could not be blamed for this, but who made her an adult and a mother?
Sure enough, Jiang Mo didn’t dare to object. On the contrary, she was extremely guilty, and secretly hid behind her by pulling the corner of her senior sister’s clothes, just like a little daughter-in-law.
The elders simply didn’t have more time to pay attention to her. After Elder Honghu glared at her, he took the phoenix egg from Yun Qingyue. I thought that the shell of the egg was cracked, and the cub in the phoenix egg must have also suffered a serious injury. However, as soon as she touched the eggshell, she felt hit by the little guy inside the eggshell, and the eggshell began to heat up skillfully…
“Huh?” Elder Honghu was surprised, because as soon as she touched it, she felt that the vitality in the phoenix egg had not diminished. On the contrary, compared to the previous contact, the eggshell cubs are more vigorous this time and are obviously well developed.
Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue were careless, but they didn’t realize this along the way. So that when they suddenly heard the exclamation of Elder Honghu, the hearts of both of them thumped at the same time, thinking that something bad had happened. Jiang Mo wrinkled the corners of Yun Qingyue’s clothes. At this time, he didn’t care about hiding behind his senior sister, and hurriedly asked, “What’s the matter, what’s the matter?”
Elder Honghu looked at her speechlessly, and when he looked at Yun Qingyue again, his eyes were a little subtle. She probably didn’t expect that she, a phoenix who has been single for thousands of years, would one day be able to know the cub’s situation better than a mother.
She raised her hand to gently caress the hot eggshell, and said to the two: “If I’m not mistaken, she should be breaking the shell.”
Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue looked at each other immediately when they heard the words, because they ruled out the correct answer from the beginning. Jiang Mo coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, but Yun Qingyue asked seriously, “But elder, among the ten eggs in the Chufeng Pavilion, she is the youngest.”
Elder Honghu understood what she meant, and while carefully looking at the extremely tiny crack on the eggshell, he explained: “But this little guy is not a pure-blooded phoenix, it’s different. Besides, how much do you and her mother have these days?” I also know that you are diligent, she has eaten so much fairy power from you, so she naturally develops faster than other little phoenixes, and it is normal for her to break her shell earlier.”
Is it normal? Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue didn’t know much about it, because Bai Hu liked to fight and was rough, and he was hardly favored by the Feng Clan before. Even the ancestors who had one or two successful pairings did not leave any heirs.
In other words, the two of them are the first ones, and the cub is the first one. There is no precedent for any situation.
Fortunately, although the two young people are inexperienced, they still trust the elders in their hearts. In the end, they accepted what Elder Honghu said, and finally let go of half of their hearts, and then they worried about other things: “Then elder, the little guy broke his shell, what can we do for you?”
To be honest, although Jiang Mo has never hatched an egg, he has seen a cub break its shell… Generally speaking, the process is not easy, although his cub looks so energetic that it is a headache, but it really depends on her suffering , Jiang Mo was still reluctant. Besides, she didn’t know what happened to the divine beast breaking its shell, so naturally she had to pay more attention.
Fortunately, Elder Honghu didn’t embarrass them, he just said: “Send her back to the Young Phoenix Pavilion, where the fairy power is most abundant, which is beneficial to her.”
When Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue heard this, they naturally said nothing, took the phoenix egg and rushed back to the Young Phoenix Pavilion. Several elders didn’t follow, because they all knew that breaking the cub’s shell would not be over in a short time, and it was completely unnecessary to guard it now.
The two came and went like the wind, and they rushed back to the Young Phoenix Pavilion from the elders’ residence in just a moment.
The phoenix eggs that were released at that time hadn’t come back yet, and there was only this egg held by Jiang Mo in such a big room. She carefully placed the phoenix egg back into the hatching nest, but she didn’t know that the little one bounced up as soon as it landed without restraint—she was still restless at all, and she didn’t seem to realize that she needed to accumulate strength to break the shell. People are worried.
Fortunately, Jiang Mo was already familiar with the operation of preserved eggs, so he quickly pressed her down immediately. While setting the restriction, it is rare to say to the phoenix egg seriously: “Little guy, break the shell obediently, and you will see a whole new world when you come out.”
I don’t know if Phoenix Egg understood, but she was indeed imprisoned again, and then angrily bumped up several times.
Of course, Jiang Mo’s restrictions were not as strong as hers, and the phoenix egg hit it without pain or itching. Except for being bounced back as before, the cracked eggshell did not break open a little. When Jiang Mo saw this situation, he couldn’t help but whispered to his senior sister: “Ah Yue, tell me, should I make this restraint harder? Then she bumped into it, maybe the eggshell broke.”
Yun Qingyue was staring at the phoenix egg carefully, but couldn’t help but glared at her when she heard this bad idea.
Jiang Mo felt that what she said made sense, because she had seen birds breaking their shells before, and most of the birds breaking their shells were pecking open the eggshells with their beaks. Now it is known that most of the phoenix eggs are not phoenixes, but white tigers, so how will her little white tiger break its shell? Scratch it away with your paws? The phoenix egg is so hard, can her tender claws scratch it away?
***************************************************** *****************
Jiang Mo was worried about the breaking of his cub’s shell. She had been closely watching the movement of the phoenix egg, and after seeing her making a fuss for a while, she finally calmed down. Then the whole egg didn’t move very much, except for occasional slight vibrations.
Finally, Jiang Mo couldn’t hold back, and whispered to his senior sister again: “Look, Ah Yue, is she asleep?”
Yun Qingyue was also very nervous, she had never disliked Jiang Mo’s noise, but now she couldn’t help but want her to shut up. So it was rare to glance over with a cold look, and Jiang Mo immediately calmed down, consciously raised his hand and gestured to his mouth, sealing his mouth.
The young phoenix pavilion became quiet, and after a while, a very slight rustling could be heard. If you search carefully, it is not difficult to find that the source of the sound is the phoenix egg, or to be more precise, the sound came from the phoenix egg… Jiang Mo’s guess of scratching the eggshell with his claws may not be all. It is aimless.
Yun Qingyue didn’t open his mouth, and Jiang Mo didn’t say anything more, their eyes fell on the phoenix egg.
But a quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, an hour, two hours…
I don’t know how much time has passed, but there is no slight change on the shiny eggshell with tiger spots. There are many slits on it that are thinner than a hair, and they are still thinner than a hair, so people can’t help but feel anxious for the cub inside.
Jiang Mo took a deep breath, finally looked away, and then pulled Yun Qingyue who was standing beside him: “Ayue, just sit and wait, I don’t know how long it will take.” Two chairs were taken out from the space, and after the senior sister sat down, the two changed positions and continued to stare. If their eyes were hot, they probably would have pierced through the hard phoenix eggshell.
The two waited for an unknown amount of time, when suddenly they heard a loud noise coming from behind. They looked back, only to see that it was getting late outside, and it was the other nine phoenix eggs that had gone out to let the wind come back.
These phoenix eggs are obviously much more well-behaved than preserved eggs. Not only do they know how to go home after dark, but they even line up to come back!
Jiang Mo looked at other people’s eggs, and then at his own, feeling a little sad.
She was about to look back, when she suddenly saw a small animal following the string of phoenix eggs, and if it wasn’t a fox, who was it? It’s just that the little fox’s fur is messy now, not as smooth as before, and it looks like it has suffered a lot.
Jiang Mo was stunned, and then remembered that when he saw the baby’s eggshell was broken, he left in a hurry and completely forgot about the nanny… It is said that the system is often unreliable, but more often it is actually quite responsible. Seeing the fox in such a mess, it couldn’t be that it went to the elder’s residence to search for it first, and then came back when it couldn’t find it, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Mo felt a little guilty. She got up and hugged the fox, and asked, “How did you do this?”
Hearing this, the system lowered its head and looked at itself, only to realize how embarrassed it was at the moment. It smoothed its shaggy hair, and hurriedly asked: “How is the baby, she didn’t break it?”
When Jiang Mo heard the question, his expression softened a lot: “She’s fine, she’s just waiting to break her shell.”
When the system heard it, it jumped out of Jiang Mo’s arms, and then jumped onto the incubator bed in two or three steps. It first circled twice around the much larger phoenix egg, and finally pressed its two front paws on the restraint, staring at the only slit, more seriously than Jiang Mo and the others… Staring at the phoenix When she broke the shell, the egg changed from two people to three in an instant.
…
Time passed, day and night rotated.
Although monks are full of energy, and immortals don’t care about sleep, but being mentally tense all night can make people feel tired. And this kind of fatigue is not physically, but more mentally tired.
Jiang Mo finally couldn’t hold back anymore, she raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, and then said to Yun Qingyue beside her, “Ayue, do you want to rest for a while, let’s take turns watching?” In fact, she wanted to say more Well, it’s useless for them to stare at it like this, the matter of breaking the shell can only be left to the cub himself.
Yun Qingyue didn’t know this truth, she was just a mother, how could she feel relieved at such a time?
She was about to ask Jiang Mo to rest, but before she opened her red lips, she suddenly heard the pleasant voice from the system: “Yes, yes, there is movement, this slit has widened!”
When Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue heard this, they didn’t have any other thoughts, so Qiqi cast their eyes on it.
After staring at it for a while, Jiang Mo hesitated and said, “Is there any change?”
Yun Qingyue said affirmatively, “Yes, it has doubled in size.”
Originally it was a thin slit dozens of times thinner than a hair, but it would be hard to see if it was twice as wide. But since there was a change, it proved that the cub’s act of scratching the eggshell that night was not in vain, and she was one step closer to breaking out of the eggshell.
Jiang Mo didn’t think about resting anymore, and the two of them stayed together all day, waiting for the cub to break out of its shell.
In the evening, they finally heard the “click” sound of the eggshell cracking. Then the hair-like crack was finally stretched open, from a thin one to the thickness of a finger, and one can vaguely see a pink and tender claw in the eggshell vigorously opening its teeth and claws, trying to squeeze that point. The gap continues to widen…
