Chapter 344: The Ocean Tortoise (I)
"It's hard to hatch!" Luo Huan's voice was very affirmative and full of sincerity.
Sun Li was surprised: "Even you find it difficult to hatch, so what should we do?"
"If you were alone, of course, it would be difficult to hatch. Luo Huan followed closely and said: "After following us for so long, you still haven't made any progress." A mere ocean of tortoises, as for asking us so anxiously?"
Sun Li was speechless: "It's fun for you to tease me every day, right?"
"Hahaha!"
The eggs of the giant tortoise are difficult to hatch because the eggs of this sea beast are very precise in their temperature requirements, but the temperature required for each egg of this creature is different. The experience of the previous hatch cannot be used for the next hatch, so the ocean tortoise has become the most difficult sea beast to hatch.
However, the Wangyang Elephant Tortoise is a first-class sea beast! It is very sought-after in the Daluo Realm, and whoever can hatch a litter of Wangyang Elephant Tortoises in Yinhai Qian Mansion is definitely lucky and rich.
Luo Huan said: "The Wang Yang Elephant Tortoise can almost compete with any sea beast above the third grade**, and be pregnant. As a result, the offspring of the oceanic tortoise are different from each other, even though they are all oceanic tortoises.
As a result, almost every litter of giant tortoise eggs hatches at different temperatures. ”
Sun Li suddenly said: I see.
"But you are different from others, the biggest advantage is that you have the idea of the primordial spirit, you can penetrate the egg shell of the ocean tortoise, see what kind of offspring is inside, and then based on this, you can deduce the required temperature. ”
Luo Huan then taught him a method of calculating temperature. Although the old man Luo Zu said it easily, but think about how many sea beasts above the third grade there are? This calculation method is actually extremely complicated, Sun Li listened to the cloud and mountain fog cover, and then began to practice under Luo Zu's guidance, several times it was wrong, Sun Li's head was swollen, and he was criticized mercilessly by Luo Zu.
In Wu Zu's words, it was to suffer from Luo Zu's characteristic "sissy" yin damage attack.
By the time he finally mastered the method, it was already the middle of the night.
The crowd that had been lively during the day was silent at this time.
Qian Tu and Qian Yuanwang each received the magic weapon, Uncle Jin stood up and didn't speak, hugged his fist at everyone, and then waved his hand, everyone followed him and walked towards the beach.
The island is a large island, surrounded by a vast stretch of silvery sand beach with a dense forest of mountains in the center.
The group followed Uncle Jin and hid behind a mountain in front of the beach.
Sun Li looked at the beach from behind the trees, dozens of miles wide, a silvery white, quiet and charming in the faint light of the night.
The waves crash against the sand, maintaining a fixed rhythm without feeling monotonous.
Gradually, the waves became bigger and bigger, and when Sun Li looked back, everyone was actually excited. He looked at the sea again, and saw that on the sea in the distance, there were faint black dots floating up one after another. If it weren't for the fact that they were all immortals, they wouldn't be able to see clearly in the dark.
The black dot is getting closer and bigger, and by the time you get to the beach, it's already a hill!
The giant tortoise is huge and awkward to move around the beach. Sun Li looked at those huge bodies that were thirty zhang high and sixty zhang long, and somewhat understood why they chose this island to spawn - if it were another island, I am afraid that there would not be such a vast beach.
Sun Li looked at those behemoths, and sure enough, as Luo Zu said, although they are all ocean tortoises, there are still some subtle differences between them. For example, some giant tortoises have longer necks, some have scales on their limbs, some have forked tails, some have different eye colors, and some have horns on the top of their heads......
Apparently these are inherited from their parents.
The ocean tortoises seem to have no idea that a group of immortals are peeping behind the mountain, or they may know and don't care. One by one, they climbed onto the beach, chose a place they liked, and opened a big pit - it was really a big pit, and Sun Li believed that ordinary people would not be able to climb up if they fell into it, and then began to lay eggs.
Unlike those in the Nether, the number of eggs laid by the oceanic tortoise is very small, with only four eggs per female.
And the chance of these eggs hatching in the wild is pitiful, almost a thousand eggs, and only one will hatch successfully.
After laying eggs, the mother turtle buries her eggs and slowly crawls back to the sea.
Don't look at these sea beasts when they lay eggs, they seem to be extremely clumsy, but how can a first-grade sea beast be idle? Once in danger, they are infinitely powerful, and they can easily smash any sea beast below the second grade. The innate aqua fairy can even empty a large lake in an instant.
The heavy tortoiseshell on its back can provide a near-invincible defense, such a sea beast, it is no wonder that the immortals dream of it.
By the time dawn came, all the tortoises had returned to the sea and disappeared in a short time.
Uncle Jin waved his hand, and everyone walked out from behind the mountain. Uncle Jin said to Qian Wenxing and Sun Li: "Presumably, you have already guessed the content of this third level, yes, it is to hatch the eggs of the oceanic tortoise."
This is the problem of our entire Silver Sea, and to this day, we can only try our luck in hatching giant turtle eggs in Yinhai Qianfu. In this third level, whoever can hatch an ocean tortoise egg will win!"
The reason why the eggs of the giant tortoise were chosen is also because the hatching time of this sea beast is not long.
As long as you can find the right temperature, you can hatch a baby tortoise in three days.
The rest of the people stayed where they were, and Uncle Jin took Sun Li and Qian Wenxing to the beach, where they left traces showing that a tortoise mother had just left her baby under the beach.
Uncle Jin carefully cleared the sand, revealing four ocean tortoise eggs in the deep pit below. The four eggs are all facing west, and they are very neat. The surface exudes a pale blue-green color that represents life, and if you look closely, you can even feel that the little life in the egg is breathing rhythmically with the light on the egg shell.
Uncle Jin said: "Be careful, once the temperature is not right, the eggs of the giant turtle will die soon, and once they die, the light of life on the eggs will be extinguished." ”
He looked at the two, and they both nodded.
Uncle Jin stepped back: "Then, let's start." ”
Qian Wenxing glanced at Sun Li, he still maintained his psychological advantage over Sun Li, and felt that his level must be above Sun Li. Before Sun Li did it, he would not do it as a "strong man".
Sun Li naturally saw through his thoughts, couldn't help but smile, picked up an egg disappreciatively, held it in both hands, and cautiously went to the side, ready to start hatching.
Waiting for Sun Li to leave, Qian Wenxing made a move, and also took an egg to the other side to start hatching.
Even if Qian Wenxing is a "genius", he is helpless against the problem of Wang Yang Elephant Tortoise Eggs that has plagued the entire Silver Sea for thousands of years, and what he can do is to try his luck like everyone else.
The predecessors of Yinhai Qian Mansion have summed up a temperature range. This range is actually a possible temperature range that has been collected from the temperature of all the eggs that have successfully hatched in the past.
It is estimated that the eggs of the giant tortoise can only hatch in this range.
Therefore, the latecomers hatch the eggs of the oceanic tortoise, and they all try their luck in this range. Experienced people, can roughly estimate that it should be in a certain temperature range in the range based on their own experience, and the rest is really all up to luck.
Qian Wenxing is inexperienced, this is only the second time he hatches the eggs of the oceanic tortoise, the previous time, tried a litter of four oceanic tortoise eggs, all failed.
However, he was still confident, because he felt that he was a genius, and that his talent in raising sea beasts was unmatched. Sun Li must be the same as him, he can only try his luck.
It's just luck that everyone thinks they're better than others. The same goes for Qian Wenxing.
He took the ocean tortoise egg, felt it in his hand, and he wanted to use the fairy soul to explore, but the egg shell of the ocean tortoise egg was a very strange substance, and the fairy soul was difficult to penetrate. And the layer of life light outside has a strong resistance to the immortal soul.
Qian Wenxing just gave up after a little attempt, and there have been countless predecessors who have tried unsuccessfully before, and he will not dwell on this.
Thinking a little in his heart, Qian Wenxing chose a temperature, and above his hands, the immortal yuan flowed, and the shortage control began to heat at this temperature.
The light of life on the eggs of the ocean turtle suddenly became lively, but Qian Wenxing's heart sank, and sure enough, after the light burst out violently, it was completely extinguished.
He sighed, and the little life in the egg was lost.
He casually tossed the egg aside, turned back without mind, and took another egg to keep trying.
......
Sun Li's Yuan Shen thought was extremely secretive, he held this egg with both hands, feeling the rhythm of the light of life, the little life in the egg was very lively, and the vitality was vigorous.
A primordial thought was released from his palm and directly into the egg.
The egg shell of the ocean tortoise is very hard, and it contains some kind of strange substance, which is naturally able to block fairy spirits. However, Sun Li's primordial thoughts were extremely penetrating, and after fighting against the light of life for a period of time, the light of life retreated. The original thought was attached to the egg shell and slowly penetrated into it.
It's slow, but it's smooth.
After the original thought entered, Sun Li knew about this little life: the father of this egg was a kind of first-class sea beast thunder eye sea wolf, this sea beast actually belongs to the amphibian species, they live in the ocean for most of the time, but a small part of the time, will land on the island.
Sun Li followed the method taught to him by Luo Zu and began to calculate the temperature required for the egg to hatch, which was a complex and slow process, and it took Sun Li more than an hour to calculate the result.
Then the old man Luo Zu said coldly: "Wrong." ”
Sun Li fainted, so he had to start the calculation again.
