Chapter 51: The Third Brother
Third brother
Ye Chen followed the scalper to run wildly in the sea of trees, and suddenly thought of why the lightning bird made such a sound.
It must have just laid its eggs, and its nest contained its eggs, which had now been destroyed by the crow, and there was nothing left of the sycamore tree nest but a destructive force attached to it.
It was already three or four kilometers away from the nest where the lightning bird was perched, and the wailing sound of the female bird could still be heard.
It's like a cuckoo crying blood, and the liver and intestines are broken.
The bird egg in Ye Chen's arms was the size of a basin and weighed seven or eight catties.
The eggshell was covered with lightning-like patterns, and from time to time a ray of lightning hit Ye Chen's body, crispy and numb. For Ye Chen's current moment, this faint electric glow was nothing.
It's just that the eggs of this fierce bird are amazed, and the young birds can release lightning before they are born, and this lightning is a magical power that can be used by nature.
Looking at Ye Chen's arms from a distance, he only felt that he was holding a large piece of agate and then running, the egg of the lightning bird. Crystal clear, comparable to jade agate.
Ye Chen couldn't help but ask out loud as he escaped from the Lightning Bird's territory with the scalper.
"What kind of fierce beast is that black crow, it can compete with the lightning bird. And to destroy its lair. β
"Oh, you said the black crow? The black crow was originally a mortal bird in the Godfall Desolation, and the original body was always a red-eyed black crow. Scavenging birds, the kind that can be found everywhere in the Godfall. I don't know what Xianzhen I ate and get some chances. I embarked on the path of cultivation, and along the way, I became a terrifying fierce bird, a figure lower than my father's generation. But it's also terrifying!"
Ye Chen was speechless.
"Tsk, such a powerful beast is even lower than your father?"
The scalper shook his head and said proudly.
"Of course, my father is also the number one person in this wilderness!"
"Then how did this crow come to find trouble with the lightning bird? Isn't it thankless to destroy the lightning bird's sycamore nest and injure himself. β
"Hehe, you don't understand this, the black crow and the lightning bird couple have a big enmity, the male bird took away a great creation of the black crow, this time the black crow came purely for revenge. Also cheaper for the two of us. The scalper said with a smile.
"Then why didn't I see another lightning bird appear?"
"You ask me, who do I ask? Anyway, this time the two of us have a big chance, you don't know how precious this lightning bird's egg is, it is really comparable to the existence of a big medicine. It contains a lot of life essence and aura, which can lay an excellent foundation for the two of us!
Hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes widened, and he said with an incredulous expression.
"Eat it?!"
This time, the scalper tilted his head and looked at Ye Chen. seemed to see through Ye Chen's thoughts.
Ye Chen originally wanted to hatch well and raise the lightning chicks to adulthood. In the future, it can bring powerful prey to Shicun, and there is no need to make the people of Shicun worry about food.
"Don't worry, this egg may not be able to hatch young birds, this race is too powerful. A lightning bird has a maximum of two chances to lay eggs. After two times, there was no way to conceive an heir. Every time an egg is laid, only a maximum of five eggs will be laid, and not every egg will have a young bird born from it. There are two at most, so this race is extremely rare and rare, but it also makes them unrivaled in strength. This is the case with many famous fierce beasts, otherwise how could the bloodline gradually wither? The farther you go on the path of cultivation, the more difficult it will be to give birth to your own bloodline, and this is true of any race. β
"And what will the rest of the eggs be used for?"
"Eaten, eaten by the female. Help it recover its vitality, every time this fierce creature lays eggs, it will be greatly damaged, and the black crow will only take a fancy to this, otherwise how would he dare to come to the territory of the lightning bird? Therefore, this is a great supplement. If you don't eat it, I'll eat it for you. β
β........................β
Ye Chen was speechless in his heart, how could this cow be so full of thoughts about how to eat it?
Just as Ye Chen was talking to the scalper, a drastic change suddenly occurred in the sky in the distance.
A high-pitched birdsong came from the changing horizon in the distance, piercing the golden cracked stones. It was as if everything was frozen by this chirp, silent.
In the distance, boundless dark clouds surged in the sky, and there was rolling thunder in the dark clouds, and silver snakes danced in the dark clouds.
Ye Chen saw a yellow shadow and flew towards the edge of the stone cliff at a gallop. It also brought the billowing dark clouds in the sky.
The scalper exclaimed.
"The lightning toy is back!"
Then a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"Haha, fortunately, the old crow helped to cover the breath of the two of us, otherwise this lightning bird would chase and kill, and the two of us would have become food in the belly. But we also have to solve this thing quickly, and it will change later. β
The two of them quickly walked out of the endless sea of trees and left the territory of the lightning bird, just in the distance.
They found a clearing, there was no obstruction, and the vision was very open, and they could see at a glance whether there were any fierce beasts attacking.
Moments later, smoke curled up from the clearing, then vanished into the distant sky.
"Hey, blue sky and white clouds, boiled bird eggs. I'm afraid that none of my uncles have such blessings! I can actually eat the eggs of the Lightning Bird King. β
Scalpers came to this clearing and took the lead. He ran to fetch water from the spring, and he cut a rock into the shape of a pot, and he himself went on the field and lit a fire.
The eggs of the lightning bird are boiled on a stone pot, and the stone pot is filled with the sweet and clear spring water of the mountains, and some elixirs collected from the sea of trees.
Slowly, the aroma wafted out from the stone pot of the cattle, and the appetite of the person who smelled it increased greatly. The scalper looked at it carefully, as if he was refining a peerless elixir.
Ye Chen looked at this scene with some amusement, he didn't expect the scalper to be so attentive to this egg.
About an hour later.
The scalper stared at the divine egg in the stone pot without squinting, and the divine egg of the lightning bird was shaking violently, and the divine egg that was originally crystal clear, like an agate, began to appear one crack after another. It's a sign of ripeness.
The scalper hurriedly leaned over and greeted Ye Chen as he passed.
"It's going to be cooked, come and eat the custard. This is definitely a rare medicine, a great opportunity! But after being busy for so long, you are watching from the sidelines. I'm going to take my first bite!"
Ye Chen didn't want to argue with the scalper, so he said with a smile.
"You eat first, you eat first. I'm not in a hurry. β
Clickββββββ
A crisp sound came from the stone cauldron, and the divine egg had already split most of it, and the scalper couldn't wait. Stomp your feet straight.
"Oops. Who did it, actually attacked your Uncle Niu?!"
The scalper let out a scream suddenly, and Ye Chen looked in the direction of the scalper.
Not far from the scalper stands a creature with wings. It's all yellow, and it's not big. It looks like a baby bird of a lightning bird about three feet long.
Ye Chen was shocked and said to himself.
"Didn't the scalper say that he wouldn't hatch a lightning bird?
Ye Chen stepped forward, and when the young bird saw Ye Chen stepping forward, it actually turned its head and wanted to run.
How could Ye Chen let him get his wish, the young bird had just been born and its wings were not yet full, and it couldn't fly. The speed was not too fast, Ye Chen grabbed him in his hand.
ββββ ββββ
As soon as he caught it, the young bird began to emit lightning all over his body, but it was a pity that he was too young. This lightning is not very powerful, and it can't hurt Ye Chen.
Seeing Ye Chen's innumerability, the young bird gave up struggling. Said timidly.
"No...... No...... Don't eat me!"
A boy's voice rang out, and it was the young bird. Because he was just born, he spoke intermittently. However, Ye Chen also understood.
This is the scalper's side has seen clearly what has just attacked him, and as soon as he gets close to the stone pot, he is caught in the eye by something.
The scalper crooked his mouth and said.
"That's what scratched me?"
"Well, that's it. It's out of the pot that you are running out of. β
The scalper's face became embarrassed, and the rare treasure medicine in his hand actually flew, and they actually hatched a young bird of a lightning bird. I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky.
The scalper gave Ye Chen a look, and the idea of the scalper that he immediately knew was self-evident.
The scalper opened his mouth.
"Hmph, you little thing actually caught me, how could I not eat it! Come, hurry up, go down to the stone pot first. β
Seeing that the scalper was caught, the young bird went straight to Ye Chen's arms. I sobbed while trembling.
"Don't ...... Don't eat me. You ...... Bad...... Bad guys!'"
Ye Chen saw that the time had come, and stopped the scalper.
"This thing doesn't have much meat, it's definitely not delicious!
The lightning baby bird echoed inside.
"Yes, I ...... It's not delicious!"
The scalper squinted and looked at the young bird.
"It's okay if I don't eat you, but you were taken by us at the risk of our lives. It's impossible for me to trade at a loss?"
At this time, it was time for Ye Chen to speak up.
"Ahem, I have an idea. If you are willing to accept us as brothers, I can persuade this cow to let you go. And bring you back to your parents!How about it?"
"Yes, willingly!"
Looking at the scalper's fierce expression.
The young bird nodded straight.
"Yes, self-...... Naturally, I would like to!"
"Well, I'm the eldest brother. β
Ye Chen pointed to himself, and the young bird shouted respectfully.
"Big ...... Eldest brother. β
"Hmm. β
Ye Chen nodded in agreement. Then he pointed to the scalper and said.
"This is the second brother. β
"II...... Second brother. β
Ye Chen and the scalper both nodded, glanced back at each other, and showed a wicked smile. One of the two is red-faced, and the other is white-faced. Succeeded in fooling the young bird.
"Hmph, let's go. We'll take you to your parents. β
Ye Chen cleared his throat and said to the cheap brother who had just bowed.
Immediately, one man and two beasts burrowed back into the boundless sea of trees.
