Chapter 17: Mysterious Beast Eggs, Seven Layers of Qi Refining
"Zhou Daoyou, this time, thanks to your discerning eyes, your clever hands to rejuvenate, find out the cause in time and find the antidote, so that my Mu family will not suffer a huge loss, this kindness, my Mu family is grateful."
"Therefore, the patriarch specially gave this thing as a thank you to the Taoist friends, and asked the Taoist friends to accept it."
In Zhou Chun's residence, after Mu Yunshan visited, he first expressed his gratitude again for his wonderful detoxification, and then put the gift of gratitude that the Mu family patriarch asked him to bring on the table, and asked Zhou Chun to accept it.
"It's ......"
Zhou Chun looked at the jade box on the table and looked at Mu Yunshan with a suspicious expression.
"What is contained here is an egg of a strange beast, which was received in my store in Mujiafang City a few years ago, and it is said to be the egg of some kind of demon snake."
"But in the past few years, my Mu family has used many methods, and I have asked many people to see it, but they can't recognize the specific origin of this thing, let alone hatch it."
"This time, after the patriarch heard about Zhou Daoyou's wonderful detoxification, he thought that the Daoyou family was a family of beasts, and maybe there was a way to hatch it, so he asked him to bring this thing as a gift to Daoyou, hoping that Daoyou can help my Mu family solve this doubt in the future."
Mu Yunshan smiled slightly, explained the origin of the gift for Zhou Chun, and then motioned for Zhou Chun to open the jade box to check.
After listening to his words, Zhou Chun's heart was also aroused, and when he reached out to open the jade box, he took out the so-called snake egg inside.
I saw that the snake egg was oval-shaped, half a foot long, nearly three inches wide, white throughout, and weighed nearly two catties.
Judging from this size and weight alone, it means that it must be a demon beast egg.
And Zhou Chun rubbed the surface of the snake egg with his palm, and found that the eggshell was extremely hard and rough, not as soft and smooth as ordinary snake eggs.
In front of Mu Yunshan, he used several methods to observe the snake egg, and the results showed that in addition to being able to determine that it was a live egg, he couldn't tell what kind of demon snake's egg it was, and he couldn't even be sure that it was a snake egg.
This is also very rare.
Because generally speaking, only the kind of eggs that have just been laid will not be able to tell what kind of creature it is because the embryo has not yet been formed, and at the same time, there is no contract.
However, since this egg has been stored in the Mu family for several years, it stands to reason that it is impossible that it has not formed an embryo until now, after all, the Mu family has never used a secret method to seal the vitality of this egg.
But it's not a lifeless dead egg!
"I can't see it, please forgive Zhou's clumsiness, this kind of strange thing Zhou has encountered and heard of for the first time, maybe after Zhou returns to the family, ask a few elders and patriarchs, and it will be possible to see the problem."
Zhou Chun shook his head, smiled bitterly and put the snake egg in his hand back into the jade box.
His reaction somewhat disappointed Mu Yunshan, but he felt normal.
After all, the Mu family invited several Purple Mansion monks to identify it at that time, but they couldn't see the origin of this egg.
Speaking of which, after receiving this egg at that time, at first the Mu family thought that they had found a treasure, thinking that this egg was likely to be the egg of some kind of middle-level demon beast, or even a high-level demon beast.
However, as many parties searched for someone to identify it to no avail, and there was no change in this egg, the high-level officials of the Mu family almost forgot about it.
If he hadn't thought about what gift to give Zhou Chun as the right reward this time, the Mu family patriarch might not have remembered it.
Therefore, Mu Yunshan quickly sorted out his emotions, and said to Zhou Chunyi with a smile: "Then I wish Zhou Daoyou can hatch this thing in the future and get a good favor, Mu Mou has to go back to restore the patriarch's life, so he will leave first." ”
"I'll send Mu Daoyou."
Zhou Chun said, got up and personally sent Mu Yunshan out of the door, and then closed the courtyard door and returned to the room, continuing to ponder and study the snake egg.
However, he pondered and studied the snake egg for three days, but he didn't have a clue, and finally gave up his plan to research the results and put them in the storage bag first.
Because Zhou Chun showed a very professional ability in detoxifying the [Ink Scale Horse], his status in the eyes of the Mu family monks was obviously improved.
Not only did several Mu family monks respect him when he was teaching, but when other Mu family monks saw him, they would also show a kind smile and greet him, and even ask him to buy the Zhou family's secret snake repellent paste and animal repellent powder.
Zhou Chun is naturally very happy about this.
The production method of snake repellent paste and animal repellent powder is not a secret in the Zhou family, and ordinary people can also get their hands on it.
Only the Spirit Pet First Aid Pill like the one he fed to the [Ink Scale Horse] that day was the real secret elixir of the Zhou family, and even ordinary core clan members didn't have a chance to contact the prescription.
The bottle in his hand was still given to him by the patriarch Zhou Daoyi in order to prevent special circumstances.
And Zhou Chun also kept in mind the matter of the Mu family's monk asking for snake repellent cream and beast repellent powder, and when he sent a letter to the patriarch Zhou Daoyi to explain the situation, he specially mentioned it, suggesting that the Zhou family could sell a large number of this thing in the Fang City in the future to earn spirit coins.
Zhou Daoyi adopted this suggestion and wrote to Zhou Chun to commend him, very satisfied with his performance in the Mu family, and said that after he returned to the family at the end of his term, there would definitely be a heavy reward.
Time passed day by day, and soon Zhou Chun came to Biyun Mountain's Mu family, and a year and two months had passed.
In the early morning of this day, while meditating and cultivating in the morning sun, there was a soft sound of "pop" in his body again, and he rushed open a trick point.
And with the opening of the fifty-fourth acupoint, Zhou Chun's cultivation also broke through to the seventh layer of the Qi Refining Period, and his mana further increased.
"I'm already at the seventh level of Qi refining, if I continue like this, even if it's just a step-by-step cultivation, as long as there is no bottleneck in my cultivation, I should have a great chance of cultivating to the twelfth layer of the Qi refining period before I turn fifty!"
In the courtyard, Zhou Chun opened his eyes after finishing his work, feeling that a lot of mana had been enhanced in his body, and he couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face.
It has been more than two years since he came to this world, and he has completely adapted to this kind of immortal cultivation life, and he is enjoying it.
I meditate and refine my qi every day, feel the growth of my mana cultivation bit by bit, practice a few more spells, and test the limits of spells in various ways.
Occasionally, tease the stupid rock turtle, or chat with other immortal cultivators, exchange special uses of various spells, and argue about which Jindan stage monk is more powerful.
This kind of full and leisurely life, in his previous life, he only dared to think about it in his dreams.
No need to worry about 996 every day, no need to think about mortgages, car loans, bride prices, all the worries are goodbye, this day is not too cool.
"It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that this kind of life can go on forever!"
How he wished that this leisurely life would go on forever.
But he knew in his heart that it was impossible.
Where there is any quiet time, it's just that someone carries the weight for him.
After three years have passed, after returning to the Zhou family, not to mention other trivial tasks, at least no one can escape the town guard errand of the Jingling Pavilion.
When the time comes, imagine drinking tea, playing chess, chatting and passing the free time every day, it is a dream.
"Well, in fact, it's not impossible, as long as you can build a successful foundation and become a family elder, you can be exempted from all chores!"
Thinking of this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
Because something interesting suddenly occurred to him.
Many monks in the foundation building period in this world were around fifty or sixty years old when they broke through the foundation building period, which invisibly seemed to be on par with the retirement age in his previous life.
It's just that once the immortal cultivator succeeds in building the foundation, it will not only be as simple as being able to enjoy happiness with peace of mind, but also be able to live for more than a hundred years out of thin air, which is not comparable to any level of retirement treatment.
"If the young man doesn't work hard, the boss is sad, it seems that I have to work hard to rush it, even if it is for a better retirement life after the foundation, I have to fight a duck!"
Zhou Chun muttered to himself, and then turned around and went into the house to make breakfast.
Trying to make every meal is also an effort!
