Chapter 392: Mutation - Loneliness 1
After the New Year, the once-a-month journey to another world is held on time.
Anjiu and her grandmother followed the crowd out.
After so many times, grandma has become very calm. She doesn't believe that Xiaojiu is so unlucky that he will be picked every time.
A Ling followed them with her child.
The two children now have chubby cheeks, their hair has grown, and they have grown a lot taller.
Now when they see Anjiu, they call her "Hello, Auntie" and run around to get her a stool and water. Anjiu always puts two pieces of candy in their little hands.
As for grandma's old sisters, ever since they had a happy chat when they delivered food last time (grandma didn't look down on them), they no longer had any psychological burden and took the initiative to come to help with the preparation of dishes and cleaning up the small restaurant.
They pretended not to see that A Ling was paid to take care of the children and never competed with the two children for work.
Anjiu then realized that she was a single person, and she felt so uncomfortable all over. After the two times, she was no longer willing to run over to join in the fun.
Now that she can clone a pig every day, she doesn't have to worry about food for the time being. In order to grow taller, she can eat as much as she wants.
But she was determined to go on this journey to another world.
On the one hand, it is to obtain resources, and on the other hand, I want to improve the proficiency of Shadow Companion.
Since the beginning of winter, people have rarely been seen on the platform. Now they are suddenly gathered together, feeling a little uncomfortable with each other, and moving around, making quite a lot of noise.
Yang Xuezhen was too lazy to manage it and just waited for host Xiaomei to draw up the list.
Soon, the results came out.
The person whose name was called turned pale, his legs were as weak as two wobbling noodles, and he couldn't even stand steadily.
Finally, two staff members carried him back by holding his arms.
Anjiu chose one of them who looked relatively strong as his target.
[Shadow Companion Skill has been triggered]
[Follow countdown: one hour (you can choose to follow within the specified time limit)]
"See, I told you that you wouldn't be there this time." The big stone in grandma's heart fell to the ground, and she breathed a long sigh of relief.
An Jiu acted horrified: "Although, grandma, I won't go over to help. I want to feel the warmth of the bed for the next few days~"
Grandma tapped her nose with amusement, "You just want to be lazy, but you are talking in such a roundabout way. You are not needed. Your grandmothers and A-Ling are enough to help you."
Anjiu hugged her grandmother's arm and rocked her, "That's great~"
A Ling behind her said to the two children, "Did you hear me? You have to work hard so that your aunt can have a good rest."
An Jiu turned around, "Right~ Whether or not auntie can lie flat depends on you two little guys~ If you do a good job, auntie will give you candy~"
The two little guys widened their eyes in excitement, "Got it, Auntie! We will definitely do a good job!"
Grandma and Aling were immediately amused.
The group of people walked back in a lively manner.
When she got home, Anjiu added coal to the stove, heated up the leftover meat and filled her stomach. When she thought the time was about right, she lay on the bed, ready to go to the other world.
……
Perhaps there was some unknown delay, Anjiu felt that several minutes seemed to have passed from the time he activated the skill to the time he arrived in the other world.
She opened her eyes and saw a blurry halo in front of her. She reached out and felt around, only to find that she was surrounded by water. Then she felt a hard touch between her fingers.
Some of it was smooth and seemed to be covered with a thin film.
An Jiu was about to go up and take a look, but as soon as he moved, he felt a strange pulling sensation in his abdomen.
She lifted up her skirt and saw a pink and white umbilical cord attached to her belly button. It floated gently with the stirring water, quietly delivering oxygen and nutrients to her body.
……What's happening here?
She can't be in her mother's belly, right?
Anjiu reached out and grabbed it, trying to pull it out. The umbilical cord was delicate and tough, and it easily slipped out of his palm.
After trying several times without success, Anjiu squatted down and felt down along the umbilical cord to see what was on the other end.
The thin umbilical cord spirals downward and gradually becomes thicker.
When she touched the end, she was stunned - it was connected to a smooth membrane with protruding blood vessels on it.
Then touch left and right and try to find the exit.
She found that the space was widest at the waistline, and then began to narrow up and down, forming a smooth oval shape overall.
After sketching out the general shape in his mind, Anjiu could easily come to the conclusion that he was in an egg.
Looking down at the umbilical cord on her belly, she was most likely still an egg.
"..."
Anjiu punched the eggshell and seemed to be instantly trapped in a sticky swamp. The resistance of the water was like a piece of plastic wrap pulling at her fist, making her movements slow and only making a loud thud.
This force does no harm to the eggshell at all.
Seeing this, Anjiu frowned, stopped and stared outside the halo, unsure whether the sound would attract anything nearby - if there really was something there.
When she stopped moving, the transparent liquid that was shaking and hitting the eggshell gradually slowed down, and the tiny sound of "swish, swish" gradually disappeared.
It felt like two balls of cotton were stuffed in her ears. Anjiu always felt that she should hear something, but the sound could not penetrate the dull and strange feeling in her ears. She shook her head several times but could not get rid of it.
Nothing appeared on the halo, and it seemed that there were no living creatures near where she was.
An Jiu planned to take out the dog-leg knife from the space to try, but just when he was about to take it out, his back suddenly felt cold, and he always felt as if a pair of eyes like thorns were staring at him closely outside.
The other party is observing her!
The other person's sight can penetrate the halo and see her clearly!
Anjiu's heartbeat quickened, and the liquid around him seemed to become heavier.
She didn't know whether the other party could penetrate the eggshell, but her intuition told her that she must not take out the dog-leg knife at this moment!
When this thought came to her mind, she immediately closed the space.
At this moment, the sky outside seemed to darken and the halo became extremely dazzling.
Then the eggshell was knocked.
Anjiu lost his balance due to the loud noise and his body swayed. He had to support himself on the eggshell with his arms to keep steady.
The other party is warning her!
It turned out that it wasn’t getting dark, but something was approaching!
Anjiu couldn't imagine how big it was. Judging from the shadow alone, its size was at least several times larger than his own.
But fortunately, the other party had no intention of hurting her.
Anjiu calmed himself down.
Although it was a bit ridiculous, she intuitively felt that the other party wanted her to stay put and not try to leave early.
As for when it will be 'grown up', it is a bit unknown.
After a brief thought, Anjiu didn't want to waste time in the eggshell and decided to get out as soon as possible.
Because the egg is just this big, just enough to accommodate her height, which means it is impossible for her to grow to the same size as the other person.
After the sight disappeared, Anjiu took out the dog-leg knife, cut the membrane with the blade, and hit the eggshell with the handle of the knife.
An Jiu suddenly found that her strength had increased. She looked down and found that nutrients were being transported into her body quickly.
