Chapter 290: Variables

"So, the scales here are also used for positioning."

Dawn took a cautious step back, no longer touching the scales on the stone wall.

In case she accidentally destroys one of them by mistake, there may be an innocent White Snake player NP who will never be able to return to the White Snake Clan.

There is no need to take such a risk.

"Let's go." She looked at Qin Feng, Xiao Bai was still waiting for her inside.

"Hmm." Qin Feng nodded, and when he turned around, he took one last look at the piece that Li Ye had picked up casually just now.

Just now, he had the feeling of being lightly touched by his fingertips.

That's his scales.

Deep in the cavern squatted a huge depression, and circles of stone steps continued to descend against the inner walls of the depression.

Standing on the edge and looking down, the silhouette of snake eggs crowded together like silkworm chrysalis at the bottom of the depression can be faintly seen.

Li Ye did not have a phobia of intensity, but he didn't want to look at it anymore, and covered the corner of his eye with his hand to prevent himself from dying and reminiscing about that "visual feast".

Also to divert his attention, Li Ye followed behind Qin Feng and asked him: "This is also the place where the fresh blood of your clan was born, why don't you even have a guard NP, aren't you afraid that outsiders will enter and skewer the snake eggs below?" ”

"Jerking?" Qin Feng's tone rose slightly, and he looked back at him suspiciously, "What do you mean?" ”

Fengfeng, who has never tasted the fireworks of the world at a roadside barbecue stand, does not understand the term "skewers" very well.

"Haven't had a barbecue?" Li Ye was surprised, but he was also quickly relieved.

Barbecue is delicious, but most of it is still not very clean, and some parents are not allowed to touch it when I was a child, and I have developed the habit of not eating it when I grow up.

If it weren't for the fact that she entered an ordinary university with almost no fancy and everyone was eating this, it is estimated that she would not have known that there was such a simple and delicious way to eat in the world.

Speaking of which, it seems like she hasn't eaten for a long time.

"Hmm." Qin Feng nodded lightly.

Dawn night suppressed the mood of the string of people who were about to move.

"Well, I'll change the analogy. Aren't you afraid of those "pointing to the deep pit under your feet," being served by others? ”

"That's what I want to tell you. Those eggs, including Xiaobai, cannot be touched. Qin Feng said, "There is a special thing here that protects the snake eggs below. ”

"yes, got it." Li Ye nodded, neither asking what the thing was, nor the consequences of Qin Feng's touch.

Because Qin Feng used the vague word "something special" to describe it, then there were two possibilities, either Qin Feng couldn't tell her about it, or it was likely that he hadn't even seen it.

And the consequences of touching it should be related to that thing with a high probability.

Li Ye had no intention of exploring the White Snake Clan in private, unless Qin Feng invited her to do so. After all, this is Qin Feng's race, and it was Qin Feng who brought her here, and she didn't want to cause trouble for Qin Feng. Now it's just a matter of knowing what not to do.

Seeing that Li Ye comprehended, Qin Feng didn't say any more, he took off the saber on his waist, pulled out the scabbard from the hilt, held the long sword in his left hand, and handed it over with one end of the scabbard in his right hand.

"The next stone staircase will be a little irregular, hold on."

Li Ye nodded, did not refuse Qin Feng's kindness, and firmly grasped the end of the scabbard.

It is said that the eggs under her can't be touched, and she doesn't want to be reckless and fall off the cliff for a while, and have a close contact with the snake eggs.

Descending the stone steps, Qin Feng did not go directly to the bottom, but turned into a hole about one person high that was carved into the rock wall.

At the same depth, there are many more such caves. Looking in from this angle of the night standing, you can vaguely see a flash of white light in the cave from time to time, like countless stars shining in the depths of the night.

"Here"

The dark eyes of the dawn night flickered with the glow. She let go of the hand holding the scabbard, and instead of following Qin Feng into the cave, Tingting stood on the stone steps.

"These on the rock wall are the real Easter eggs."

Put the sword in the scabbard and put it on his waist again, Qin Feng explained. He then turned, standing side by side with Dawn Night.

A real Easter egg?

Li Ye's eyes blinked slightly, and he reacted. She turned her face sideways and raised her head towards Qin Feng: "So these are the ones underneath"

"Unhatched snake eggs."

"The White Snake people have a habit of keeping Easter eggs separate from snake eggs."

Qin Feng said and looked at the cave behind him, for some reason, he felt a trace of strangeness from the cave.

Subconsciously glanced at it again.

"What's wrong?" Qin Feng turned his head frequently, and Li Ye followed his gaze and looked back.

"I don't know." Qin Feng's thin lips pursed, "Go in and have a look." ”

Qin Feng cut into a state of preparation, pressing his right hand on the hilt of the sword to open the way in front. Dawn was two or three paces behind, always paying attention to the movements around him, especially behind him.

As they went deeper, the light inside the cave dimmed.

This unusual situation once again aroused Qin Feng's vigilance.

The beating glow indicates that the life inside the egg is in full bloom. And once the glow no longer beats, it means that the life in this egg is completely reborn and breaks out of the shell.

Of course, it may also be that the life inside the egg has come to the end of its fate.

But no matter which one it was, it was not what Qin Feng was willing to see. Because according to the time calculation, Xiaobai has not yet reached the time to break the shell.

If it is the former, then the one that comes out of the eggshell will definitely not be Xiaobai.

Since it's not a novice, what will it be in its place?

Before figuring out the situation, Qin Feng decided to bury these speculations in his heart.

It's not to escape from reality, but I don't want to cause unnecessary worries in Liye, the truth is ahead.

However, as keen as the dawn of the night, he still smelled something from Qin Feng.

Looking at the tall back in front of him, Li Ye swallowed the question that was about to blurt out, and unconsciously cooperated with Qin Feng to speed up his progress.

The light from the depths of the cavern was completely extinguished. Losing its luminous light, the cave was dark.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had prepared in advance, and he took out two beads that emitted milky white light from the package, one for Li Ye, and the other for him to hold up on a high place to light the road ahead.

There is a river called "Yingchuan" in the territory of the White Snake Clan, which is rich in a kind of pearl that can shine, called "Kyaukzhu".

It was the two that Qin Feng took out.

If it was placed in normal times, Li Ye would definitely take a second look at this bead first. At the moment, Xiaobai's situation was unknown, she didn't have the heart to be curious about anything else, so she took it and pinched it in her hand and followed Qin Feng without looking at it.

The snake egg, which stood upright in the dark, gradually revealed its oval upper outline due to the arrival of Qin Feng and the dawn of the night.

The lower end is buried in a "nest" made of dirt and hay, so that the snake egg can stand in the center of the nest with full energy.
