Chapter 9 The Scaly Egg

The river flows slowly to the edge of the bamboo forest, then suddenly bends down and pours into the lake, stirring up water waves and mist. Under the scorching sun, a rainbow can be seen hanging horizontally.

The distance between the river and the lake is six or seven meters, and it is at least ten meters from the lake to the bamboo forest. Standing on the edge of the bamboo forest and looking at the big lake, Yun Buliu can't help but feel relaxed and happy.

If it hadn't been for Little Furball's reminder, when he discovered that a waterfall suddenly appeared in this big river, he probably wouldn't have had time to escape and would have plunged directly into the lake.

Bang bang bang...

Suddenly, a white figure crossed the lake, dragging out a white wave.

It was a white swan with its head held high and its chest high, carrying broad white wings on its back, its two orange-yellow feet spinning like wheels, flapping wildly on the water, and its body moved forward.

If you ask who is the strongest in Lingbo Weibu, I am the one who floats on the water with my goose palm.

Yun Buliu's eyes lit up when he saw this goose. It seemed like he could have a snack in the evening!

As for whether this thing protects animals, he no longer cares. This is not the world he was originally in, and the laws of that world have no control here.

After admiring it for a while, he stopped paying attention to the white swan.

He looked into the distance. Under the sunlight, the surface of the lake was sparkling. The large lake, which was about three to five miles wide, was like a green mirror embedded in the mountains.

He even saw patches of green lotus in the shallow bay of the lakeside under the forest on the other side of the lake.

Yun Buliu discovered that his eyes seemed to have changed, almost like an eagle's eyes.

Although he did not wear glasses before, his eyes were already nearsighted and had astigmatism, so his vision was somewhat blurry and had double images.

But now, you can actually see clearly from places three to five miles away.

However, when he looked up at the mountain forest on the other side of the lake, he discovered that high up behind the mountain forest was a snow-capped peak reaching into the clouds.

He felt that this snowy peak was probably the big snowy mountain that he saw on that high cliff, far away in the horizon and towering over the sky.

Yun Buliu looked amazed, and then felt confused for a while.

Are there really humans in this world?

How vast is this big forest?

While he was at a loss, he heard the cry of "goose goose" coming from the lake. When he turned around to look, he could only see the big white goose that was still very squeaky and held its head high. At this time, he didn't know

He was bitten by something and dragged into the lake. His wings kept flapping, and finally he sank into the water and disappeared.

Yun Buliu looked at this scene with a look of astonishment, and then a hidden worry came to his mind.

He thought of the strange little beast that escaped instantly.

If it's because of this waterfall that Maoqiu doesn't need to escape at all, is it because there is a monster even more mysterious than Maoqiu hidden in this lake?

Thinking of this, he felt that he could not go into the lake rashly, otherwise his life might be in danger.

"Are we going to be trapped here?"

He gritted his teeth, feeling a little unwilling in his heart, but more importantly, he was afraid, frightened, and nervous... His heartbeat gradually accelerated, and he didn't know what to do.

Spending several nights alone in this deserted mountain wilderness, he was frightened all the time and even cried several times.

If crying didn't consume a lot of energy, he would definitely cry a few more times.

He is not a bold person, he is just a very ordinary, ordinary person.

He does not have stunning looks, nor is he unparalleled in intelligence, courage, or perseverance. He has only a little bit of talent in his chest, and his body is not strong. He is just a member of the masses, but a tiny speck in the troubled world.

Ordinary is synonymous with him.

If possible, he would never want to be alone in a place like this for more than three minutes.

He didn't want to experience the feeling of loneliness like "a lonely bird in the sky and earth, his shadow disappears in the blue sky. He is alone in the thousands of miles of green mountains, and who can his shadow complain to?"

Especially in this fantasy world in front of us, where you can lose your life in minutes.

He silently looked at the lake, hoping to see clearly what kind of monster was hidden in the lake.

If it's a small crocodile, you don't have to worry too much. But if it's a giant crocodile, you can't use a bamboo raft. But if you don't use a bamboo raft and walk along the forest along the river bank, the danger seems to be greater.

After looking at it for a long time, he finally found a few pieces of black firewood rising from the lake, but they were not very noticeable on the sparkling lake. If his eyesight had not become extremely extraordinary, it would have been difficult to spot them.

"There really are crocodiles in this lake! Such a big piece of black wood, how big must that crocodile be? It must be at least six or seven meters long!"

Yun Buliu muttered, but when he thought about Maoqiu leaving him behind and running away without hesitation, he felt that it was not simple. There was probably a bigger crocodile at the bottom of the lake.

"Sure enough, we can't take the bamboo raft anymore." Yun Buliu sighed, "We have to stay away from this big lake."

"Didn't you say that crocodiles don't eat swans and ducks around you? That's a lie!"

While muttering, he looked at the group of white swans in the lake.

I estimate there are about forty or fifty of them.

However, this group of white swans didn't seem surprised that there was one less comrade among the swans. They were still doing whatever they had to do in a leisurely manner! It was as if the previous killings had never happened.

After standing at the edge of the bamboo forest for a while, he retreated back to the bamboo forest, instinctively wanting to stay away from the lake.

He needs to think about what to do next?

He was walking along the shore of the large lake in the bamboo forest, but he was only a few meters away from the lake.

The bamboo forest is not big, but it is not small either. It is fifty or sixty meters long and about thirty or forty meters wide.

He found that the soil in this bamboo forest was still very sticky yellow mud.

The yellow-skinned bamboo shoots under the yellow mud are Yun Buliu's favorite, because these yellow-skinned bamboo shoots are not numb when eaten raw, but he has no appetite now.

Beside the bamboo forest is a small forest. The trees in the forest are not as huge as the giant trees seen before.

Just as he walked into the woods, suddenly a white shadow flashed out of the corner of his eye.

He was stunned for a moment, then took a step back. He turned around and saw a rock sitting between two small trees. There was a crack a few centimeters wide in the middle of the rock.

There was a white thing stuck in the crack. The white thing looked like an egg. But the egg actually had scales on its surface, which made him a little surprised.

He had some suspicion that it was not an egg, but some little monster curled up into a ball, so he grabbed a handful of mud and threw it towards the crack in the stone. The white scales did not move.

He braved it and stepped forward to take a look. Finally, he picked up a piece of dead wood and carefully poked the white scales, but there was still no movement.

He breathed a sigh of relief and used the dry firewood to pick out the scales stuck in the cracks in the stone.

Not long after, he saw the white scale ball rolling down. He carefully touched the scale ball with his hand and found that it was really a white egg with scales.

"What a weird world! I don't know what kind of monster egg this is. It can't be that swan egg!"

He looked back and forth at the strange egg, but in the end he couldn't tell what kind it was.

"However, you can have extra food in the evening. There are strange eggs, and there are swans in the lake. There should be swan eggs by the lake! This is simply a paradise for toads!"

Only now did Yun Buliu feel that he would not easily starve to death in this mountain wilderness.

It's just that everything in this mountain and wilderness is weird. If you don't starve to death, you may die of other causes.

Stuff the strange egg with white scales into the grass basket and continue moving forward.

After turning around the grove, a clear view suddenly opened up, and I saw a piece of greenery of at least ten acres and tens of thousands of square meters appearing on the lakeside.

The greenery is more than two to three hundred meters long, thirty to forty meters wide, and more than fifty meters wide at its widest point. The overall shape looks like a half-moon.

At the end of this green area, there is a high cliff. The high cliff looks like a huge boulder inserted into the lake. Behind the cliff is a mountain forest.

I estimate that this cliff is two to three hundred meters high.

If you want to go from here to the other side of the lake, you have to go behind the cliff.

However, there are thick bushes behind the cliff and there are layers of dense forests. It is definitely not easy to walk in.

The big river bends down from where the bamboo forest is and flows into the lake. It turns a corner in the lake and slowly goes to the left.

If there are no monsters in the water, the best option is to take a bamboo raft and go down the river from the lake to the outlet on the left front.

The place where the high cliff is located is right opposite the outlet of the big lake.

On the left and right sides of the high cliff, there are quiet lake bays, with a green patch of greenery on the left and a dense forest on the right.

There is a patch of wild lotus in the lake bay at the foot of the mountain in the north.

In Yehe Bay, the faint quacking of teal ducks could be heard.

The greenery here is occupied by swans, and that side seems to be occupied by teal.

There must be fish in the lake, which can solve his food problem very well, but there are big crocodiles, which is a bit scary.

"The sky is reflected on the lake, and the green mountains on both sides of the lake are accompanied by it. It's so beautiful! It's a pity that there may be big monsters hidden at the bottom of the lake, and I am just a passing passerby!"

Looking at the lakes and mountains, Yun Buliu couldn't help but sigh, "If I could have such a piece of green mountains and green waters on earth, I could really go home and farm and live in seclusion."

Behind this green lawn is a huge forest. Near the green lawn, the trees are not big, but the farther back, the bigger the trees become.

From a distance, the dense treetops look like a hillside, rising slowly.

Under the mountain forest near the greenery, there is a fault. The mud in the fault is solid soil. It is about four or five meters high from the green ground, and it is covered with bushes.

He looked at it, carrying bamboo shoots in one hand, a wooden stick in the other, and a straw basket on his back. The wooden stick tapped the grass about half a meter high under his feet, and walked towards the fault behind the greenery.

He needed to dig a hole in the fault where there was solid soil to rest at night.

Tomorrow I have to explore the forest behind the high cliff to see if I can turn around from there.

Finally, when he walked to the middle of the green lawn, he knocked out a cauliflower snake hidden in the grass. The snake was startled, opened its mouth, and neighed at it.

He was also shocked when he saw the bloody mouth that suddenly opened.

But the next moment, the wooden stick in his hand whizzed towards the cauliflower snake.
