Original Again - Chapter 135
For an adult Kantas, this must be the most beautiful voice in the world!
Before that, they had been worried about whether these water-soaked eggs could hatch. The birth of this cub relieved them.
The first cub made a good start. In his tweet, the cubs came one after another. They were hidden in the deepest part of the nest by their fathers. Everyone could not see their looks, but The louder and louder tweeting tells everyone that more and more Kantas cubs have broken their shells.
The fathers of these cubs did not go hunting. Using body temperature to keep the cubs warm has become their most important job. In previous years, they had to rely on the prey stored next to the nest to survive this period of hunger. This year The situation is even more special: because the ice and snow melted prematurely, they did not have a dragon to store enough food, but what is different this year is that they have cubs together, one dragon is responsible for guarding the cubs, and the other dragon They are responsible for hunting. The cubs are safe, not to mention, there is fresh and sufficient food to eat every day.
As a result, Kantas’s weight loss season did not appear at all in previous years, everyone is very healthy, and even some people have gained a lot of weight.
That person is Meng Jiuzhao…and Louis.
There are three eggs in their family, three adult Kantas, and one and a half loli Kantas. Even if everyone took an egg to incubate, they still had one person left to hunt.
It’s good to be ordered to concentrate on incubating the eggs. Meng Jiuzhao and Louis’s daily food are rounded up by Uncle and Alice. They can bring back a lot of food every day.
Uncle did not have his own cubs this year. According to his description, the female in his cave walked with a big belly. She did not lay eggs. This time, 80% of the conceived female cubs were again.
“All the female cubs have been born in the past few years.” The uncle explained blankly.
Meng Jiuzhao:…
Well, the uncle who has given birth to a girl for more than ten years…you will be the national father-in-law in the future…
The uncle who did not have his own cubs devoted himself to instructing Meng Jiuzhao and Louis on how to hatch eggs. Although he had only successfully hatched two cubs over the years, the only two hatching processes were firmly imprinted in his mind.
“The stones should be kept higher! Prevent the eggs from touching the ice surface!”
“Incubate the eggs on a different side every day! Prevent uneven heating!”
“You can’t take the egg out and turn it over! It’s too cold outside, you have to do it under your butt!”
When it comes to incubating eggs, he always has endless experience.
“The two cubs I hatched back then are the strongest in the entire breeding ground.” Recalling the dusty scenes deep in his memory, Gulenza thought of God.
“…Yes, I remember the second cub, with a pinch of black hair on his chest…” Gu Lunza’s words also aroused Meng Jiuzhao’s distant memories. He remembered the cub, and he gave it back to the little guy. He got a nickname called Yi Cun Hei.
The scene at the time of birth is still vivid, and now, he and Louis actually came to hatch their cubs.
“…You are really smart.” Glancing at Meng Jiuzhao quietly, Gu Lunza slowly smiled. This handsome man with a cold expression seldom smiles. The first time I saw his smile, Meng Jiuzhao felt a little bit instantly. Lost.
“Thank you for remembering him.” Gu Lunza only said these words, and then he worked harder to guide Meng Jiuzhao.
He not only instructed Meng Jiuzhao and Louis, but also the other cubs who came with Meng Jiuzhao and them.
Well, the most suitable profession for the uncle… Maybe it’s not the father-in-law, but the mother-in-law.
It was another long year of waiting, a long journey to the breeding ground, and once again he did not give birth to his own eggs, Gu Lunza could not but feel lost. However, the presence of these large cubs in front of him refreshed him.
My own little bit (← that is the one inch black in Meng Jiuzhao’s mouth ==///) If he survives, he will be about the same age as them. Looking at them, Gu Lunza feels that he has seen the same little bit when he grows up. .
What’s more, although he has not given birth to his own male cubs in these years, he has many female cubs. Although the next generation who continues their blood cannot grow up by their side, Gulenza is sure that the female will protect her.
Like the male Kantas, the female Kantas also loves her cubs very much. As long as the cubs do not grow up, they will not give birth to another cub. In this harsh world, the cubs can feel the most gentle The temperature comes from the love of parents.
Gulenza and the others don’t understand the abstract things like “love”, but this does not prevent them from leaving all the best things to their cubs, just like their parents.
At this point, Meng Jiuzhao is ashamed.
For example, Louis, at the moment he thought he had eggs, he immediately adjusted his identity to be a father, regardless of the authenticity of those eggs, he devoted his warmth and love to them wholeheartedly; but Meng Jiuzhao is still ignorant. When he saw the three eggs, he would instinctively refuse to recognize their identities with reason. Even if asked to incubate the eggs, he still cares more about how Louis might feel in the future.
In his worries, the “chickens” in the breeding ground were out of their shells.
To be precise, all that can get out of the shell are out of the shell.
The cubs’ hungry cries became more and more vigorous, and they were enveloped by their energetic cries every day, and the breeding ground became vigorous. In order to satisfy their growing appetite, the fathers had to increase the number of hunting.
In this thriving scene, there are always a few Kantas out of place.
All the excitement has nothing to do with them, and the nest under their buttocks is always quiet.
Finally, one of them moved his **** away and picked up the egg that had been properly placed in the center of the bottom of the nest. The moment he saw the egg, Kantas let out a howl of pain.
The top of the egg looks very good, but the bottom position is already dark.
It may be that it was over-immersed, or it may be that the inexperienced Kantas was too cautious and didn’t turn Dandan over. In short, the egg was already dead.
Not long after his father’s body left him, the temperature on his surface disappeared.
He-is already a dead egg.
The arrival of a new life is gratifying, and those who have been deprived of their right to life before they are born… also make people regretful.
After that egg, six nests successively found the same situation.
The little life in the egg didn’t know when they left, maybe they were already dead, but their father still accompany them to finish the last journey.
Like other eggs, give them temperature and protection of their nests until the moment they have to be confirmed to leave.
After burying the dead eggs, Kantas in the seven lairs left one after another.
They have no reason to stay here.
“Let’s… also check the condition of the eggs.” Watching the Kantas fly away, after a long silence, Gulenza spoke up after all.
Like the lair of the seven-headed Kantas, the lair under Louis’s **** was always quiet.
“No, I have to wait for them to come out by themselves.” Unexpectedly, Louis rejected Gulenza’s suggestion.
Without squinting, he swore to sit through the lair with an expression of righteousness.
The worst situation occurred, probably because he realized that there was a problem with his egg, and Louis began to refuse to admit it.
Meng Jiuzhao felt a little funny at first, but soon became sad.
“Louis, let’s take a look at them. It’s been a long time, should they breathe?” He tentatively poked at the back of Louis’s head, feeling Louis’s body tightening, and then, Meng Jiuzhao saw Louis slowly turning his head. .
The moment he saw Louis’s expression, Meng Jiuzhao’s heart felt dull.
Louis’s expression is very strange, Meng Jiuzhao has never seen his current expression.
Louis, who has always been confident, has a calm face when he is doing bad things. At this moment, his face is horrified, the corners of his mouth are tightened down, and his eyes are full of grievances.
“I…” He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, and then slowly lowered his head for a while.
The palm of his hand tightly grasped Meng Jiuzhao’s hand, and he finally gave up his place in the lair.
Under the nervous gaze of Meng Jiuzhao and Louis, Gulenza took out the well-buried egg from the nest.
After checking the egg from beginning to end, Gu Lunza frowned. After a while, he lifted the egg and looked at it in the direction of the sun.
After reading one, he then put the egg aside. Louis hurriedly put the egg he laid down in his arms again, and wrapped the egg firmly with his wings. Louis watched nervously as Gulenza took out the second egg from the nest.
The same check was made on the second egg, and Gulenza turned around.
“It’s not an egg, it’s just a prickly stone.”
Finally, someone clarified the truth of the matter to Louis.
Fresh pumice and eggs are very similar. In fact, they have the ability to confuse their eyes and ears. Kantas is a race that likes to steal eggs. Many Kantas will deliberately mix pumice and eggs in order to improve the quality of the eggs. To the degree of safety, Kantas, who has no cubs, deliberately took the prickly stone back to incubate.
This is a common mistake Kantas, who has just come to the breeding ground, happily picks up the side stone as someone else’s egg. The jokes that can’t be hatched come every year. This year it’s Louis’ turn. .
The anxiety on his face, the expectation… It disappeared all of a sudden, Louis took out the prickly stone in his arms, and then squeezed it up-
Without using a lot of strength, cracks appeared on the surface of the “egg”, and with further force, it was completely broken into powder.
There is no cub, there is just a gray substance of the same color as the outer shell.
Louis slowly returned to his expressionless expression.
At this moment, his expression coincided with that of the emperor of the previous life. There was no sadness or joy, and the look in Louis’s eyes was daunting.
“Yo~Alice!” At this moment, Alice’s joyous voice broke the dead silence in this corner.
Sliding skillfully on the ice with her double fins, Alice dangled and slid to the vicinity of their lair.
“Fish! Fish! George!” A big fish was spit out from her mouth, and Alice slapped the ground excitedly.
Look~ This is the big fish for George~ Hurry up and put it away!
Since the cubs were born head-to-head, Alice has expressed high expectations for George’s arrival.
If it is usual, either Meng Jiuzhao, or Louis, they must have put the fish away, but this time, the fish had been bouncing on the ground for a long time and no one came to fetch them, and they seemed to be frozen on the ice. Alice hurriedly lowered her big head and held the fish in her mouth again. She struggled to crawl towards the nest with the fish in her mouth.
It doesn’t matter if no one comes to collect it, she knows that her mother usually puts the fish there, and she can put it by herself.
The double fins climbed on the outer wall of the high nest, and Alice tried to raise her body. Although she is very long, but not tall at all, this action is very difficult for her.
However, she was not discouraged at all, slowly rubbing up against the nest, and finally, her chin touched the edge of the nest. Alice hurriedly buttoned her chin on the nest, and slowly opened her mouth. She was about to throw the fish in her mouth into the nest, and suddenly—
“Um! Um!” A very strange cry came from Alice’s mouth.
Her movement finally attracted the attention of the adults.
“What’s the matter?” After climbing to the top of the nest in twos or twos, after Meng Jiuzhao took the fish from Alice’s mouth, she could finally speak normally.
“George! George!” The unprecedented joy in her voice made Meng Jiuzhao feel a little pain. However, when he was about to throw the fish into the storage room in the lair and came out, his sight suddenly caught a glimpse of something.
Throwing the fish out, Meng Jiuzhao walked upside down to the nest like a green onion. He stayed inside for a long time. When his face reappeared from the nest, Meng Jiuzhao showed a very strange expression on his face.
Continue to maintain this weird expression, Meng Jiuzhao did not crawl out of the lair, on the contrary, he called Louie’s name loudly.
“Louis, come here!”
He yelled several times before Louis walked towards him slowly.
Although he followed Meng Jiuzhao’s call and came here, Louis still had a sad expression on his face. He felt that he needed a period of time to calm down, but Meng Jiuzhao was unwilling to give him this time.
“Louis, go and see what it is.” Meng Jiuzhao’s voice sounded again. Following the guidance of his voice, Louis jumped into the lair, and his gaze finally fell to the bottom of the lair.
Although the outside of Louis and Meng Jiuzhao’s lair is not very beautiful, it is very warm inside. They spread all the leather they brought from home in it.
Louis’ eyes were strangely focused on one of the horns.
There is a small bump there.
He tilted his head and saw Meng Jiuzhao’s embarrassed and shy face.
With a thought, Louis tremblingly lifted the skin of the palm of his hand, and the little things under the skin were completely exposed in front of him.
“Tweet—” This was a lazy greeting.
