Chapter 244 Phoenix Egg

Danxue Mountain is lush with vegetation, mostly sycamore trees and green bamboos. While listening to the constant beeps in his mind, Wen Shu moved forward with anticipation and excitement.

[Di——the current species "wild apricot tree" is three years old, and the fruit is immature]

【Di—the current species "Motherwort".】

【Di—the current species "wild ginger".】

【Di】

As long as she glanced at something, the system would automatically scan and give her feedback, so that Wen Shu hadn't walked half a mile, but there were more than a dozen prompts in her mind.

One after another, the notification sounds kept echoing in his mind, which made Wen Shu feel pained and happy.The excitement is because many things I don't know will automatically tell myself.

It hurts because it's too noisy!

Especially now that she only wants to see Phoenix, and she is not interested in the "ripe wild ginger, jade stone, delicious bamboo fungus" that the system prompts.

However, the "species remote scanning function" could not be turned off halfway after it was turned on, so she could only try to keep her eyes looking far away, not close.

Because Xiaoxing said that the current scanning range of the "species remote scanning function" is only one mile, so as long as her eyes are fixed one mile ahead, the system will not prompt again.

But there is a saying that you have to look at your feet when you walk, otherwise it is easy to fall into the mud.

No, Wen Shu, who just cheered for a second for the notification sound that stopped in his mind, felt tripped by something the next moment, and threw himself forward uncontrollably.

"hiss!"

The tender palms pressed against the red thorns, and there was a needle-like pain.

She carefully removed her hands from the thorns, and then angrily looked at the "culprit" behind her, but she was stunned on the spot with just one glance.

What tripped her was an egg, an egg with spots all over its surface, an egg as big as ten eggs!

And the reason why she froze was not only because the egg was abnormally big, but also because of the system prompt in her mind.

[Di—the current species—Phoenix Egg!There are living bodies inside, which can be hatched. 】

Wen Shu just felt that his mind was empty, phoenix egg!
This turned out to be a phoenix egg!
She was stunned for a while, and then took two steps forward, and picked up the egg with the hand that had just been pricked by the thorn.The body of the egg was huge, and it fell on the palm of her hand, tightly covering her hand covered with red spots. When she weighed it again, it weighed at least two catties.

Instead of looking at the phoenix, he looked at the phoenix egg first, this luck, I don't know whether to say it is good or not.

And
Wen Shu looked around, there was no phoenix bird, no sycamore wood and phoenix nest, why is there only one egg?

She held the egg in confusion and continued to move towards the place where the cry came from.After walking for about half a stick of incense, the sound of running water faintly came from my ears, and the sound of birdsong was getting closer and closer, clear and melodious, not like a simple song, but like singing.

After another hundred steps to the southeast, I saw a huge boulder squatting two feet high. The bottom right of the boulder exposed a corner of a river and stream.

At this time, the birdsong became louder, as if it was right in front of our eyes.

Wen Shu carried the phoenix egg across the weeds, dodged the cluttered branches, and then stood in front of the boulder, hiding most of his body behind the boulder, with only one head poking out to look towards the river.

The winding stream flows through the grass, the grass is luxuriant, and the flowers are everywhere.By the stream ten feet away, there are two phoenixes, one is dancing towards the stream, the other is singing with its head raised.

They are dressed in colorful coats with colorful fur. Different feather colors form markings on their bodies that look like Chinese characters. The ones on their backs look like the Chinese character "Li", and the ones on their wings look like the Chinese character "Yi". With the dancing of the phoenix bird, she also I saw the "virtue" on the head, the "benevolence" on the chest, and the "faith" on the belly.

Under the sunshine, the whole body of the phoenix refracted colorful light, just like the rainbow across the sky after the rain, full of brilliance and gorgeousness.

As expected of being the king of birds, just this beauty is well-deserved, Wen Shu nodded behind the boulder.

Around the two phoenixes, there were many different kinds of birds, some squatting on the trees, some standing on the grass, but they were all quiet.

In this world, apart from the rustling of the leaves blown by the wind and the gurgling of the brook, the only sound in the sky is the chirping of phoenix birds.

Its voice is melodious and melodious, and when you listen to it, you can only feel that the sky is high and the earth is vast, and all your troubles will go away in an instant, making people feel as if they are falling into the clouds.

As Wen Shu listened, her mind gradually relaxed and became blurred. The consequence of this relaxation was that her hands also relaxed.

then
With a "click", the phoenix egg fell to the ground.

The sound of the heavy object falling to the ground still made a lot of noise in this side of the sky, not only awakening Wen Shu from the fairy sound, but also making the phoenix singing and dancing over there look over.

Hundreds of birds turned towards the phoenix, and the phoenix looked at this side, and the other birds naturally followed suit. In an instant, Wen Shu was stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes at the same time.
His heart was in his throat instantly, and his scalp was numb.

She glanced at the ground in a panic, but unexpectedly found that the phoenix egg was not broken, which made her feel a little relieved.

Waving at the thousands of birds in the company, forcing a smile on his face, Wen Shu squatted down and pushed the phoenix egg away until it rolled over the boulder, exposing it to the birds.

"I picked up your egg for you, it's not broken." She smiled flatteringly at Fenghuang who was looking over.

The phoenix that danced earlier looked at the egg, then turned its head, and walked towards Wen Shu's direction.

Wen Shu's body trembled subconsciously, and he took two steps back.

When the phoenix saw it, it raised its head and let out a cry, then flapped its wings, and flew in front of her in an instant.

Wen Shu panicked and took two steps back again. She didn't want to run, mainly because she couldn't run past the flying phoenix, but when she faced the giant bird, she couldn't help but want to back up.

"cracking."

The next moment, the phoenix stretched its wings and pushed the egg in front of it.

What do you mean?
"Give it to me?" Wen Shu stammered.

Fenghuang didn't make a sound or move, he just turned his head and stared at her.

Wen Shu had no choice but to slowly stretch out his hand to touch the phoenix egg tentatively.

Well, there was no violence.

Seeing this, she became more courageous, and directly put her hands together and hugged the egg again in her arms.

At this time, I saw the phoenix nodded, and then saw it flutter its wings and fly back to its original position, and began to dance again.

The phoenix bird next to it also began to sing, and the birds also returned to their previous appearance, as if what happened just now had never happened.

The egg in their hands is not important to them at all, and she, a living being, invades their territory like this, and they don't care.

At this moment, a system notification sounded in my mind, and the countdown began.But until he went out and even returned to the room, Wen Shu felt inexplicable.

Obviously saw the legendary phoenix, and got a phoenix egg by accident. Logically speaking, the trip was worthwhile, and even made money.

But for some reason, she felt a slight sense of regret and loss in her heart.

She didn't know what she was regretting and losing.
Maybe it's because the phoenix I saw was different from what I imagined.

It is not as mysterious and powerful as imagined. Apart from being good at singing and dancing, and colorful, there is no other specificity.It's not as good as Shan Hui, who frightened her when she entered Shan Hai Jing for the first time, and brought her a greater impact.

　Phoenix, a species that exists in legends, is also a bird that often appears in fairy tales.

　　But none of us have ever seen the real phoenix. The description of the phoenix in this article is based on the original text of Shan Hai Jing.

　　Although I am also full of doubts about the description of the patterns and characters, I think it is very likely that later literati added it deliberately in order to exaggerate the auspiciousness of the Phoenix and educate the world.

　　And there are some sayings that there are five kinds of phoenixes, and they have different names according to their colors, but since this novel is based on Shan Hai Jing, let's try to follow the description of the original text.

　　I don’t know if everyone is satisfied with the description in this chapter, but what does the phoenix look like in your mind?
