Finally discovering a human trace, Qiuqiu was also very excited. She looked at the dark iron chain again and again: "What... what is this for?"
The chain was not complete, and one side was wrapped around the tree. The reason why Qiuqiu didn't notice it at first was because it had grown together with the tree body, and there was no trace at all.
The other end of the iron chain extended toward the lake. Shi'er tried to pull it back. The length of the iron chain that was submerged in the lake was not long, only about ten feet, and there was a broken stubble at the end.
It seemed to have been torn apart by something, rather than chopped off by a sharp blade. Because the stubble was not neat, if it had been chopped off, it shouldn't look like this.
"This..." Qiuqiu whispered: "This seems to be used to tie something?"
She felt that her guess was very reliable.
But a new question comes again, what is this tie for? Why is the other end submerged in the lake? Does the tied thing live in the lake?
And this thing can break the chain - Qiuqiu looked around nervously, fearing that a monster would suddenly come out from behind.
"No matter what you raised, that thing shouldn't be here now, right?"
Shi'er put down the chain and took two steps towards the lake: "I'll go down and have a look."
"Ah?" Qiuqiu grabbed him and said, "I don't know what's going on down there, so don't take such a risk."
"It doesn't matter." Shi'er looked at her calmly: "Wait for me up there."
Qiuqiu looked at him for a while, then silently let go of his hand.
Shi'er took a few steps forward, jumped into the water, and was completely submerged.
Qiuqiu took two steps forward. She didn't know the nature of water. She didn't know it in her previous life, and she had no chance to learn it in this life. The lake looked very clear, but through the lake, she could only see a dark color. Below the lake surface
The situation is completely unclear.
Qiuqiu lay there and looked around in vain for a while. The ripples caused by Shi'er's jump had disappeared. The lake surface returned to calm.
Qiuqiu was restless on the shore. She believed that Shi'er had strength, but strength also needed to be compared. They knew too little about this space, and they came in a hurry today. If they had enough time to prepare, they could even seek help from the master.
.The result will definitely be very different.
Qiuqiu took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged on the shore, and meditated.
Dabai and Erbai obediently guard Qiuqiu alone. As Qiuqiu's skills increase, Dabai and Erbai can also get full benefits. A rising tide lifts all boats, and the master's ability improves. The benefits that the spiritual pet can get are also more considerable.
It's useless to think randomly at this time. Nothing has happened yet. Qiuqiu has lost her sense of proportion and is confused. If something happens, how will she cope with this state?
Shi'er will definitely not be relaxed in the lake, and her anxiety will also affect his mood.
So she can't be messy.
If you can't help, at least you can avoid causing trouble.
A leaf fell from the tree, swirled, and slowly landed on the lake near the shore. Qiuqiu opened her eyes.
That leaf broke the calmness of the water. The lake water, which was originally as quiet as a mirror, had faint ripples. The leaf swayed slightly on the water, but the shaking was tiny. The water will probably return to its original calmness soon.
.
But Qiuqiu was wrong.
Instead of getting lighter and disappearing, those ripples became more violent. Circle after circle of ripples spread outward, and the water surface trembled more and more violently. Later, they began to surge violently, and bubbles bubbled out.
It’s like boiling a pot!
Qiuqiu held the sword in her hand and stared at the lake warily.
She could feel Shi'er's mood fluctuating, it was an indescribable and subtle feeling.
It was shock and surprise, but there was no fear or pain.
Qiuqiu comforted herself that Shier's life should not be in danger.
But how to explain the unusual movement on the water surface? It was like someone boiled the water underneath - no, the entire lake seemed to have been boiled.
Suddenly, a huge wave rose up in the middle of the lake. It was as white as snow, like a monster rushing up from the bottom of the lake. Qiuqiu stared at the figure on the top of the wave and exclaimed: "Shi'er!"
Of course the figure on the wave cannot be anyone else!
Shi'er's figure was tossed several times in the air by the huge waves, and it could be seen that he was trying to stabilize his figure. The white waves tossed a few times, and although they were menacing, they seemed to be weak. In just a short moment,
It exhausted its energy and burst into countless water droplets splashing down.
Qiuqiu had no time to hide and was hit by the rain, turning her into a drowned rat.
But how can she care about this now.
After the water waves disappeared, Shi'er swayed in the air and stabilized his figure. He stepped on the water and came briskly in the direction of Qiuqiu.
Qiuqiu took a step forward and stepped into the water with her feet.
Shi'er landed firmly next to Qiuqiu. He was as tall as Qiuqiu, and his figure had changed into that of a young man, no longer a round young man with three heads and a body.
Qiuqiu grabbed him and looked up and down: "Are you not injured? What happened?"
Shi'er nodded slightly, and with his usual facial paralysis, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, let's talk about it when we get ashore."
"Ah, yes, let's go ashore first."
Both of them were treading water, and water was dripping from their hair and body.
Seeing Shi'er smiling for the first time, Qiuqiu's heart immediately relaxed.
Although the momentum seems a bit alarming, it is clear that what Shi'er encountered at the bottom of the lake was not a bad thing, and he is now safe and sound - except for the fact that they are both crazy.
Now I feel at ease.
"What did you find at the bottom of the lake? Why was there such a big fuss?"
Shi'er wrung the water from his sleeves and freed his hands to twist the ends of his hair.
"look."
Shi'er took out something from his sleeve.
It's huge, round, and white and slippery. No matter how Qiuqiu looks at it, she feels... it looks like an egg.
But this egg is a bit too big, right?
An egg can be held with one hand. But this egg... Qiuqiu's two short and fat little arms can wrap it around it. It must be forty or fifty centimeters in diameter!
so big!
"This...is an egg?"
"yes."
"What kind of egg is it? Did you find it from the bottom of the lake?"
Shi'er didn't have the habit of showing off, so he said directly: "This is a dragon egg."
Dragon...egg?
The point is not the egg, but the word dragon!
Qiuqiu was so nervous that she stuttered: "Dragon?"
Is it the kind of dragon in myths and legends? It can soar into the clouds and create rain, or even become the king of the seabed. For example, the famous Ao Guang can turn into a human form, speak human words, and rule all the aquatic tribes in the world.
To get such a dragon... Of course, Qiuqiu has never had such a sweet dream. Dragons are not only so beautiful and powerful. There is also the unlucky one, who was almost wiped out by Nezha.
There are also legends about dragons in this world. They are not as magical as what Qiuqiu knew in my previous life, but they should not be underestimated. There are also many dragons in the legends here. They are not as powerful as gods and kings, but they can still soar into the clouds and ride on the mist. They have the power to reach the sky and the earth.
Ability. There was even a legendary swordsman who became an immortal in the past. His spiritual pet was a dragon. He was so arrogant that he could walk around without any scruples on this continent. It is said that his opponents invited all over the world.
The capable swordsmen were in trouble with him, so he fought them head-on with one man, one sword and one dragon. Finally, he escaped and almost all the people who besieged him were annihilated.
Of course, this matter is also a legend, and it must be exaggerated and beautified by later generations. But this matter is not groundless. There really was such a person, and he really had such an incredible spiritual pet that was the best in the world.
And now there is actually a... dragon's egg in front of them?
"Are you not mistaken? It's really a dragon's egg? In fact... it might be some kind of strange fish or water animal..."
Qiuqiu is definitely not trying to contradict him or attack him.
It's just that this... is too hard to believe.
Can such good luck happen all at once, and let them get a big advantage?
"It is indeed a dragon egg." Shi'er said: "It is at the bottom of the lake. There are several protective magic circles around it. It took a lot of effort to unlock it. When my hand touched the dragon egg
, I also sensed some of the spiritual imprints left by my predecessors left on the eggshell. The parents of this egg are no longer here, and the person who left this egg at the bottom of the lake is the owner of the dragon. This lake used to be a dragon.
's residence."
Qiuqiu stretched out her hand to touch the eggshell with awe, and touched it very carefully. She quickly retracted her hand.
"It doesn't matter, it's indestructible."
It seems that the surprise brought by this egg is too great. Even Shi'er is the first to say such a joke.
"Is this egg good? I mean, alive?"
This is a bit strange to ask, but this egg has been sleeping at the bottom of the lake for who knows how many years. Even if it is a dragon egg, it may not be able to hatch a little dragon from it. Just like not every egg can hatch a little dragon.
Just like a chicken... dragon eggs are good, but dragon eggs are not the same as dragons.
"Of course." Shi'er said with certainty: "The imprint left by its parents has been protecting it. The huge wave that just washed me out of the lake was caused by that remaining protection."
Qiuqiu finally has a sense of reality.
Dragon! Although it is still in the egg, but if it really hatches...then, doesn't it mean that Shi'er has a dragon? What is this concept? This is comparable to the martial arts secrets and magic weapons that Qiuqiu imagined at the beginning.
Sharp weapons, even Xianzhi, Ginseng and Snow Lotus are powerful!
"Then can you take it as a spiritual pet now?" Qiuqiu asked anxiously.
It's not difficult to collect spiritual pets, but it depends on what kind of spiritual pets you collect. It couldn't be easier than harvesting Dabai and Erbai in Qiuqiu. These two rabbits don't have much spirituality and ability at all, and secondly, they are inherently
I actively wanted to find an owner to take care of, and the two of them hit it off immediately, and successfully adopted the spiritual pet. But if you want to acquire this egg... this will depend on Shi'er's ability. (To be continued. If you like this work,
