Chapter 3: Sea crocodile, grass, snake, fox in fire, monster eggs have mystery ()
Three weeks later, Shujia Island.
Ditan, coming-of-age ceremony.
"Choose eggs." Ditan Demon-controller has gray hair and a slightly hunched body. He carried his hands on his back and quietly looked at the three young men in front of him. He was old, but his aura was strong, and his body exuded a faint sense of oppression.
Now.
There were three monster eggs placed in front of Chu Yun and others.
The one on the left is the size of a basin and is light blue all over. It looks like the eggshell is like stone. If you listen carefully, you can hear a faint tide sound coming from the egg.
The one in the middle is the size of a sea bowl, and it is dark green all over. The eggshell is shining, making you feel a greasy and lubricating. The surface of the eggshell is also dotted with black marks. If you smell it carefully with your nose, you can even smell the fresh fragrance of green grass from the egg.
The one on the right is the size of a sea bowl. The eggshell is as white as snow, and the surface is evenly distributed with bright red flame markings the size of a fingernail. At first glance, it looks like flowers are in full bloom, and a warm feeling suddenly appears.
The dark and bright eyes were as calm as a deep pool. Chu Yun's heart was surging, his eyes swept over the first two monster eggs, and paused slightly on the monster egg on the right. The expression on his face was always calm.
His eyes swept Chu Yun, even the Ditan Demon Controller who had experienced all the wind and frost, was secretly amazed at this moment. Chu Yun had a calm and grandeur that was far older than the age of thirteen. In comparison, the other two young men beside him, regardless of their expressions and behaviors, were in line with the anxiety and hesitation that they should have at such an age.
Like the customs of other islands, every year, Shujia Island holds a unique coming-of-age ceremony for thirteen-year-old boys with demon control qualifications.
The island will select the best part of the monster eggs obtained during this year and provide them with the teenagers for their selection.
In the next program, they not only have to successfully hatch monsters in the eggs, but also learn how to feed monsters, how to command monsters to fight, and how to conquer new monsters.
In this world, monsters represent power. The coming-of-age ceremony represents the teenagers who leave their childhoods without worry-free play and officially embark on the road to taking responsibility. The good or bad performance in the coming-of-age ceremony is more related to the future of the teenagers.
The coming-of-age ceremony is very important. This is the turning point in life. Countless strong people started from now on, gradually stood out, and became the dominant figures.
Although the thirteen-year-old boys have mature minds, they have not yet received real training. Faced with such a major moment, anxiety and hesitation are inevitable. However, Chu Yun was quite calm, which made Ditan Demon-controller, who had extremely rich life experience, not only looked at him sideways, but also secretly praised in his heart: "I am really worthy of being the adopted son accepted by the island lord!"
"Damn it! My mother has long found out about the eggs for both of us. We asked us to choose the sea-burning crocodile, and the green-toothed snake two monster eggs. But how do we know which one is the sea-burning crocodile and which one is the green-toothed snake?"
"Yes, in addition to these two eggs, there is also a firefox egg. If I were asked to choose that firefox egg, my life would be over. If that kid Chu Yun was cheap, he would be even more depressed!"
Beside Chu Yun, the two young men were whispering.
"It's hateful, we can't ask the old man. Inquiring about these egg seeds is already a violation of the rules. This coming-of-age ceremony is too unreasonable. It indicates the name of a monster, so let's just choose it!"
"It's all your fault that you don't study hard in your daily life. Now, you can't even tell the monster eggs."
"You still say to me? You are the same. If you have a genital, you can choose first!"
Before the monster egg was picked, the two teenagers started arguing first, and the voice became louder and louder.
"Shh, whisper, why are you making a noise? Are you not afraid to let others hear it?!"
"You are just loud and you criticize me?"
The two of them faced each other in a tit-for-tat way.
The demon master of Ditan heard it, shook his head slightly, and sighed in his heart: "Just like you tricks, when you run outside Ditan, I can hear your whispers. Alas, the island master is wise and magical, how could there be such two foolish sons? No wonder some people doubt whether it is the island master's biological son..."
This year's coming-of-age ceremony on Shujia Island is a bit special.
Not only are the boys who meet the conditions, there are only three on the island. Moreover, these three are the sons of the owner of the Shu family island. However, Chu Yun is the adopted son, while Shu Da and Shu Er are the biological biological children.
Although his face is similar, Shu is as fat as a pig and has a irritable temperament. However, Shu Er is as thin as a firewood, and a yin energy is everywhere in his body.
While the two were arguing, Shu Er accidentally glanced at Chu Yun, and suddenly a shiny light flashed in his eyes, and he whispered to Shu Da: "Don't quarrel! I have a way!"
Shu Da knew that his second son was always tricky, so he must be aimless at this time. He immediately became energetic and asked, "What's the solution?"
Shu Er did not answer him, but turned his head, looked at Chu Yun, and shouted, "Hey! Chu Yun, I heard that you did a good job in your homework, and everyone praised you for your intelligence. Today I will test you. If you can identify and distinguish these egg seeds, I will give you this bag of Earthly Demon Stone Coins."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shu Da immediately continued: "If you identify the wrong way and let me choose the wrong egg, you have to change the egg unconditionally!"
After saying that, the two brothers looked at each other proudly and regarded others as fools.
When the demon master of Ditan heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head secretly and suddenly remembered a proverb - the reason why fools are stupid is because they treat others as fools.
People have different differences, eggs have different differences. The monster eggs placed here also have high or low status in terms of qualifications and potential.
The demon-controller of Ditan naturally knew that the demon egg on the left here could hatch and go out to sea to explode crocodile, with the highest value. The middle is the green-toothed snake egg, which is second only to the sea to explode crocodile. Although the fire fox egg is of good quality, it is far behind the other two.
The quality of the eggs directly affects the performance of the coming-of-age ceremony and is related to a person's fate and future. How could Chu Yun agree to this condition, identify these demon eggs, and then hand over his future?
"Okay, I promise you. But you have to hand over the Earthly Demon Stone Coin in your hand first." After a glance at Shu Dashu Er, a smile flashed across Chu Yun's eyes and nodded in agreement.
"Uh..." Ditan Demon Control Master was stunned.
"This fool!"
"A short-sighted thing, hahaha!"
Shu Da and Shu Er looked at each other and laughed wildly in his heart.
"Forget it, you're ruthless, you've succeeded." Shu Er tried hard to pretend to be indignant as if you succeeded, but the smile of the conspiracy at the corner of his mouth completely betrayed him.
"Boy Chu Yun, you have to remember the conditions just now! If you admit your mistake, you have to change the eggs!" Shu Da glared at Chu Yun and added with a angrily voice.
Chu Yun smiled, took the bag containing the Earthly Demon Stone Coins, weighed it, and based on his memories and experience in his previous life, he immediately figured out that there were about thirty pieces.
"Quick, I've collected the money, why don't you tell us the eggs quickly?" Shu Da urged.
For a moment, whether it was Shu Dashu Er or the demon-controlling master in Ditan, they all focused their attention on Chu Yun.
Chu Yun, wearing a simple white shirt, still looked calm. He blinked his eyes as black as a vague paint, stretched out his slender fingers, pointed to the monster egg in front of him, and smiled slowly: "The one on the left, the egg is like a basin, which means that the monster beast is huge in size. The color is like a sea, and the calm and single in nature means that this egg is not a twin, but a single pill. The sound of sea tides is a sign of the excellent qualifications of the water-carrying monster. This is the sea-burning crocodile demon egg."
When Shu Da and Shu Er heard this, their eyes lit up, and they were anxious and happy: "Switch on, let's continue!"
Chu Yun smiled and then said, "The one in the middle is as big as a bowl and as light green as grass. It means it is a wooden single egg, which gives birth to a wooden monster. The luster on the egg is greasy, which is the characteristic of a soft arthropod monster. There are black spots on the eggshell, which means it is poisonous. The egg body is even more faintly surrounded by the fragrance of fragrant grass, which is the expression of the Wooden monster's profound talent. This is the green-toothed snake monster's egg."
"As for the last one..."
"Stop talking, stop talking. Hehe, I'll want the one on the left!" Shu Er suddenly interrupted Chu Yun and knew two of them. Isn't the rest the fire fox egg? Shu Er had no interest in him and spoke directly, determined to rush in front of everyone and choose the best one.
"Go to death! That sea crocodile's egg is mine! When is it your turn to rob my brother of mine?" Shu Da glared, shouted loudly, and pushed Shu Er to the ground with a thump.
"That old man, I'll choose this egg." Shu Daming took a few steps forward, almost rushing to the monster egg on the left.
Shu Er stared at Shu Da with resentment, snorted coldly in his heart, and hurriedly got up from the ground. He ran to the egg in the middle and said sarcastically, "The grass-toothed snake and the sea-burning crocodile are both monsters of the same level, and they have to look at their future cultivation and growth. Hehehe... Let's take a look, that old man, I will choose this one!"
As he said that, he stretched out his palm to pat the monster egg in the middle.
"Hiss..." The monster egg suddenly emitted a rich green demon light, and it seemed that the sound of a snake hissing came.
Shu Er's face turned pale suddenly and he retracted his right hand like lightning. But then he became happy again: "Haha, I remembered that this is a fetal light! My mother is right. This green-toothed snake has a high talent and a deep qualification. Following me is also your luck!"
As soon as he was happy, he said he let out a word, but he hadn't noticed it yet. Shu Da was also immersed in joy, stroking the eggshell of the monster on the left with both hands, almost pressing his fat body on.
"Madam Shu has these two good sons...hey!" The demon master of Ditan did not reveal it, and shot them disdainfully, and then focused his eyes on Chu Yun. He couldn't understand why Chu Yun gave up these two best monster eggs.
"Can the remaining fire fox egg be a mystery?" Thinking of this, the demon-controlling master from Ditan shot the monster egg on the left again.
