4.3 Newborn Birds (1)
"Phoenix Emperor?!" Fox-sang's eyes widened, and his body trembled; It's like meeting a long-awaited little female fox.
"Phoenix Emperor! What does it look like? Rui Gong frowned and said suspiciously.
"Are you sure this is the Phoenix Emperor? It's not a drop, it's like a freshly hatched chick. Ke Zhenshi was stunned and didn't believe his eyes.
Di Qingchuan just pursed his lips and looked at this ignorant little guy with a nervous expression.
The little bird that trembled out of the eggshell was about two feet tall, and its fluff was a faint golden yellow, which at first glance looked a little different; In particular, there is a slender, glittering golden feather that grows above the buttocks, which is particularly eye-catching.
The little bird staggered a few steps, its eyes slowly opened, and it stared at the uninvited guests in front of it in a daze. His eyes were like fiery amber, full of curiosity about the world; The half-crooked little head looks a little soft and cute. The head stretched and shrank, but it was almost the same as the chickens catching insects in the vegetable garden.
Speaking of this appearance alone, it seems that the little one is no different from any other bird; If there is any difference, it is nothing more than the moment he broke out of the shell, the entire cave was illuminated by a dazzling golden light, and that golden light came from his body, as if it had a pearl-like light source. As the bird did get out of the eggshell, the light came out of the cracks around it. Only the little guy who is currently stunned is left.
"That magical light just now is something that only the Phoenix Emperor can have!" Fox Sang Zhenzhen has words, and he believes that he is the Fenghuang he has been thinking about for a long time.
"Well, really...... Fenghuang? Ke Zhenshi was a little incredulous.
"Yes, a miracle that happens once in 5,000 years, let us witness it!" Husang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes flashed with excitement, and muttered to himself, "If only my father and sister were there!" ”
"But," Ke Zhenshi smacked his mouth and paused, "He looks no different from an ordinary local chicken!" ”
"Cut, who said that the Phoenix Emperor should be luxurious, elegant and different from the rest of his life?" Husang didn't have a good airway.
"Husang, isn't it based on some Lingwa's calculations, it's still early for the birth of the Phoenix Emperor? He," Rui Gong pointed to the little bird in front of him, "could it just be an ordinary spirit bird born here by accident?" ”
"This ......" Fox Sang looked at the little bird, the light in his eyes flickering, as if he was recognizing something.
Di Qingchuan interjected, "Yes...... Will...... I...... Let's go...... It's ...... to walk For a long time? ”
Ke Zhenshi gave him a blank look, "You mean that we have been drilling in the cave for thirty or forty days and have not died of hunger, sleepiness and thirst?" ”
Di Qingchuan was robbed of everything, and then stopped talking.
Husang was silent for a long time before he came to the conclusion, "According to the time of birth, it is indeed advanced; But putting these aside, the extreme fire element, the chaotic energy field, and the twisted and weird labyrinth in the Chiyan Cave are definitely not something that ordinary spirit beasts can bear; And, if he's the egg of another spirit bird, then the question arises, how did he get here? What about his parents? Except for the Taiyi birth, the phoenix and the phoenix without father and mother, there is no innate spirit bird in this world. So," Fox Sang pointed at him with his forelegs, "I'm sure he's the Phoenix Emperor." What's more, the tail feather on his ass is definitely proof of identity. ”
"Tail Feather? What's the point? All three were at a loss.
"There is a record in the ancient book "Lingyu Kaosuo", 'Fenghuang, the ancient god bird. Taiyi was conceived, and the newborn had a golden feather', you see that there is really a golden feather on his buttocks, and this is the most favorable proof. As for why he didn't be born according to the day calculated by Lingwa, I'm afraid this is a heavenly opportunity. ”
"Couldn't it be some kind of bird genetic mutation?" Ke Zhenshi had a whim, but found that Husang couldn't understand what he was saying at all, and he was a little embarrassed.
"Native chickens too...... can also become a phoenix," Di Qingchuan nodded to show that he understood Ke Zhenshi's words.
Rui Gong remembered the shadow of the Phoenix Emperor who had guided him to this place, and was a little noncommittal, "Let's count him as the Phoenix Emperor, what should we do now?" ”
"In order not to be disturbed by his birth, the Twelve Elders and the Spirit Clan fought to the death with the dark bandits of the Demon Realm outside, but they didn't expect him to be born here secretly, but he was really a chicken thief," Ke Zhenshi shook his head and said, while reaching out to the fledgling, wanting to stroke the phoenix emperor's hair.
At first, Xiao Fenghuang just watched Ke Zhenshi rush towards him blankly and stretched out his hand. However, before Ke's hand could reach Xiao Fenghuang's body, his body was kicked aside by Hu Sang, who was jumping up from the side.
"Little Fenghuang, don't be afraid, Brother Husang protects you and doesn't let your dirty hands touch you!" With a good-natured smile on his face, Kitsune cautiously approached the fledgling.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Fenghuang was probably frightened by the ghostly smile on his hairy face, and flapped his wings and hid backwards.
When Hu Sang was embarrassed, Rui Gong said behind him, "Hu Sang, I remember you said that it is a god-sent honor to be able to witness the birth of the Phoenix Emperor, and you will get special luck?" ”
"That's right! We should be able to have some special luck, right? When Hu Sang thought of this, the smile on his face widened. Xiao Fenghuang took two more steps back.
Ke Zhenshi didn't give up, and wanted to rush to touch the Phoenix Emperor, but the fox sang grinned in front of the road, and he could only give up.
Di Qingchuan stared at the bird deadly, his eyes were almost red, and he said in a low voice, "Little Phoenix Emperor...... Good work...... Bless me soon...... Come back to Taowu Village, full marks in the exam! ”
Ke Zhenshi and Husang couldn't help but laugh out loud when they saw his pious appearance. Only Rui Geng's expression was indifferent, standing far away. Unexpectedly, the little chick shrunk her neck, slowly paced to her side, and pecked her pants with the tip of her orange beak.
Rui Geng, who had nothing to say before, couldn't help but squat down and reached out to touch Fenghuang's velvety little head, while Xiaofenghuang stared at her with round eyes and looked at her without blinking.
"I'll touch it too." Seeing that this little bird and Rui Gong were so close, Ke Zhenshi also wanted to join in the fun, and sneaked behind Xiaofeng Huang to hug him.
Unexpectedly, this bird seemed to have eyes on its back, and it only escaped Ke Zhenshi's hand in an instant, and the latter, whose center of gravity was unstable, fell to the ground with a "snap", and his mouth was indignant, "Hmph! Little villain! ”
"Why don't you call yourself clumsy!" Rui Gong said in disgust.
The two were arguing, but Di Qingchuan interjected, "Look, Xiao ...... Bird Run...... Run! ”
Everyone hurriedly turned their heads. Following the direction he pointed, I saw Xiao Fenghuang shaking his fluffy fur while stretching his neck, swaying towards the direction of a cave.
"Quick! Follow him! Rui Gong didn't want to think.
"Let's go!" Husang also greeted and followed closely.
"Uh, what are you running about, this little bird?" Ke Zhenshi was muttering there alone, but no one paid attention to him.
What is a little strange is that this little chick has just given birth to half a cup of tea, and its body is also controlled to sway, but its walking speed is not slow at all. The hole he had chosen was only half a man high, and the big guy had no choice but to lie on the ground and follow him forward.
At first, the passage was narrow enough to accommodate one person, but after walking about a hundred zhang, it gradually widened, and the road network system extending in all directions reappeared in front of everyone's eyes. Everyone was apprehensive for a while, but the little golden figure walked without hesitation, chose a direction, and rushed forward with all his strength, so that everyone did not wander around.
"Where are we going?" Rui Gong couldn't help but ask.
"I guess," said Fox Sang, "follow him out of the Red Flame Cave." ”
Ke Zhenshi was disdainful of this, "Do you think he will go to find any treasures?" ”
No one answered him. After a while, Di Qingchuan said, "But...... I hope it ...... I can get out. ”
"I hope so." The thought of being able to get out of this endless hole made Rui Gong's face glow with joy.
"Hey, I don't know if my sister has found a way out now," Hu Sang remembered the troubles, "If you don't see her when you go out, you must ask Father Yang to ask the Twelve Elders to find a way." ”
Suddenly, Rui Gong quickened his pace, "Everyone is following. ”
The caves in front of him seem to be more closely intertwined, and the small figure is also turning left and right, and the leisurely stroll seems to be strolling in his own back garden, full of confidence.
After passing through an unknown number of intersecting caves, finally after turning the last corner, a circular illusory circle of light appeared in front of the eyes of the beings.
"Look! Is that! Outlet! When Husang raised his eyes and saw it, his silent emotions became excited.
"I didn't ...... That's right! Be...... It's the entrance to the cave! ”
"Let's go! Come on! Rui Gong urged.
The big guy rushed out of the cave almost desperately. They passed through a blinding curtain of light, and in an instant it was as if they had jumped into a steaming furnace. The heat wave swept again, but in their hearts, there was a sense of excitement about being reborn.
"Hahaha, we're out! We're seeing the light again! Ke Zhenshi said wildly and uninhibitedly.
"Out of breath!" Rui snorted and took a deep breath, a burning smell in the air. She looked up at the fiery red sky attentively, and there was not half a dark cloud in sight, "This day seems to have changed back to the way it was!" ”
Husang looked around, as if he was looking at something.
Xiao Fenghuang looked at the teenagers with exaggerated behaviors, and his face was full of inexplicability.
"Here...... No...... It's ...... us A place to get into. Di Qingchuan cautiously swept the surrounding environment, his eyes full of vigilance.
"Ahh So how do we get in touch with Daddy Fox? Ke Zhenshi was stunned.
At this moment, "San'er! There was a powerful shout, and two familiar figures jumped from far and near in the distance, rushing towards the place where they were.
"Daddy!" Hu Sang raised his eyebrows, immediately turned around, and pounced in the direction where the two figures came, and rushed into Hu Lan's arms in three or two clicks.
"Oops! It's calculated! I thought you were lost and couldn't get out, and I was about to ask the Twelve Elders to save you! Hu Lan said lovingly.
"Sister! You're there too! Husang said with a smile, and finally fell to the ground when his heart was in it.
"Strange to say, after I was separated from you, the path was unusually smooth, so I chose the leftmost path and walked out of the hole we entered. Nothing happened. What about you? How did you get out of this back mountain? ”
"Secretly tell you a big secret, we came out with the Phoenix Emperor." Husang whispered solemnly.
"Phoenix Emperor?!"
"Yes! Father! We met the Phoenix Emperor Egg and watched him be born! ”
"How so?!" Fox Lan and Fox Blossom were full of confusion on their faces.
"I don't know, maybe it's providence, anyway, when we were cornered, the phoenix egg appeared in front of our eyes; Then he burst out of his shell," Fox Sang pointed to the chick, "and he led us here. So, I'm sure he's the Phoenix Emperor. ”
"If that's the case, the opportunity for our Spirit Fox Clan to return to the top is at this moment." The fox shook his head.
"Dad, what are you talking about?! Let's go and see if that's the Phoenix Emperor! The fox reminded.
"Yes, yes, Sang'er, let me take a look at the Fenghuang you said!" Hu Lan urged.
Hu Lan didn't have time to greet the remaining three Terran teenagers, so he walked quickly towards the Little Phoenix Emperor.
"At first glance, it doesn't look like the Phoenix Emperor, but if you think about it carefully, it's not necessarily impossible." Hu Lan groaned.
"But I don't look like it. How could Fenghuang be so ordinary and ordinary. Good father, you don't want to think about how big the movement of heaven and earth was when my brother was born! The fox kept shaking his head, expressing his disbelief.
"Ahem, ahem," Husang coughed twice in embarrassment, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.
