The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".
Chapter 2 Breaking Out of the Shell
Bai Hechou's consciousness gradually cleared from chaos. He slowly came to his senses and looked around in confusion.
"Where am I?" Bai Hechou was a little confused about the situation. "Wasn't I sleeping in my dorm? Why did I suddenly appear here?"
After being bewildered for a while, Bai Hechou began to explore his surroundings. Soon, he discovered something strange: "I seem to be in the water, and I'm not suffocating."
Bai Hechou continued to explore his surroundings while marveling at what he had just taken two steps forward, but he encountered an obstacle.
Bai Hechou touched it carefully. The barrier was hard and had a slight curve. As he moved his hand along the barrier, he found himself in an oval-shaped space.
Bai Hechou stopped what he was doing and fell into deep thought (once a week, every single time): First of all, I've time-traveled, that's for sure. Also, judging from the current situation, I should be inside an egg, not yet hatched.
I just don't know what world I've transmigrated into, or what race I'm of. Ideally, it would be a world of cultivation or fantasy, and I'd be some kind of chosen one to become his spirit beast. (Hugging for a leg)
What? You say I'm in my own hands, not in the heavens, and I'll be the protagonist of my own life? Bai Hechou says: Forget it, it's too tiring. I just like being a lazy bum, lying down and giving up.
As Bai Hechou was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a tremor and a shaking. "What's that?"
Bai Hechou was a little curious: Who is touching my eggs? Could it be my adoptive mother? After all, usually the male hunts and the female incubates the eggs, so the mother is more likely to be the one.
Suddenly, a sound came from outside... it seemed to be talking. Upon hearing the sound, Bai Hechou hurriedly pressed his ear to the eggshell.
The sound came from outside again, but whether it was because Bai Hechou's ears were not fully developed or because the eggshell was too soundproof, he couldn't hear anything clearly.
This is really frustrating. "Forget it, I'm not listening anymore, I'm going to sleep." Originally, Bai Hechou wanted to try to hear some information about this world.
But since he couldn't hear anything, he might as well go to sleep. After all, his previous actions and thoughts had taken a lot of his energy.
"Ah~" Bai Hechou yawned, closed his eyes, and drifted off to sleep.
Let's rewind to before Bai Hechou woke up. After Tianlu and Bixie brought the egg home, they discussed it and decided that Bixie would be responsible for going out to find food, while Tianlu would stay home and take care of his younger brother.
Yes, the division of labor is very clear.
Bixie is responsible for: hunting to support the family.
Tianlu was in charge of hatching the eggs.
Meanwhile, Tianlu was sleeping while holding the egg, muttering things like, "Egg, little brother, big brother will take good care of you..."
The egg in his arms suddenly moved slightly. Although the movement was very small, Tianlu, who was almost obsessed with missing his younger brother, was instantly awakened.
"Little brother?" Tianlu suddenly opened his eyes, quickly got up, and knelt down in front of the egg with an expectant look on his face.
"Did you move just now, little brother?" Egg shook slightly, as if responding to Tianlu's words.
Tianlu was extremely excited to see this, and he immediately began to chatter on and on to the egg, "Little brother, let me tell you, I'm your older brother, I... Oh, right, you have another older brother, he..."
"Tianlu, what are you doing?" Bixie had just returned when he saw Tianlu talking to the egg, and he couldn't help but ask.
Tianlu's mutterings were interrupted. He turned around and saw it was Bixie. He quickly ran over, grabbed Bixie's paw, and said happily, "Bixie, Bixie, my little brother just moved!"
"It moved?!" Bixie walked over to the egg in surprise and examined it carefully for a while, but he did not find any movement.
"You must be seeing things." Pixie thought about how Tianlu had been inseparable from eggs lately and felt that he must be seeing things.
"No, that's not true! You believe me, Pixie!"
"Alright, alright, let's eat first." Seeing that Tianlu was unhappy, Bixie quickly changed the subject. The change was abrupt, but effective.
"Um, okay, what delicious food did Bixie bring back?" Tianlu's attention was instantly diverted: his younger brother was important, but being well-fed was also important. After all, food is the most important thing for a person, and only when he was well-fed could he have the strength to take care of his younger brother.
Pixie breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this: thankfully, he managed to fool them.
In the days that followed, the egg remained unmoved, leading Tianlu to doubt whether he was hallucinating. However, evidence soon proved that Tianlu was not seeing things: (Bai Hechou has woken up.)
"I'm so hungry!" Bai Hechou was awakened by an intense feeling of hunger. He felt waves of weakness washing over him. "What's going on? I'm still in the egg, why am I hungry?"
Bai Hechou was completely baffled, but the hunger in his stomach urged him to act quickly. "My cheap parents in this life should be able to solve this, right?" Bai Hechou began to shake his body, trying to attract the attention of the beasts outside.
Meanwhile, outside the egg, Tianlu was awakened and was shaking the Bixie beside him, "Bixie, Bixie, my brother is moving again, get up and take a look!"
Tianlu is very happy now: it was indeed not an illusion before.
"It really moved." Pixie said with some surprise as he was woken up, looking at the egg in Tianlu's arms.
"Hmph, I told you my little brother had moved earlier." Looking at the constantly shaking egg, Bixie had to admit that he had indeed misunderstood Tianlu before.
After a while, Bixie noticed that the egg was still shaking and showed no sign of stopping. "Why is it still shaking?"
Logically speaking, there was no movement at all before, so even if it's awake now, it shouldn't be making a fuss.
"He's probably hungry," Tianlu suddenly thought, recalling how he used to act the same way when he was hungry.
"Idiot, how can you eat an egg?" Bixie looked at Tianlu speechlessly: How old is his younger brother? How come he's still so stupid?
"Who said you can't eat! I heard that mythical beasts need to use magic to hatch their eggs, isn't that eating!"
Tianlu got angry: Why does Bixie never believe me? What I said makes perfect sense.
"Uh, it seems that's true." Bixie found himself unable to refute it.
"Hmph, I'm quite clever too." Tianlu said smugly: he had finally surpassed Bixie in one aspect.
"Alright, Tianlu, let's give it a try first." Bixie walked to Tianlu's side, placed his paw on the egg, and began to channel divine power into it.
Bai Hechou felt like he was starving to death. "It's been so long! I only felt a slight movement at the beginning, and then nothing happened. What's going on?! I'm starving!"
Bai Hechou lay beside the eggshell, wailing. Suddenly, he felt a surge of heat enter his body. "Huh? What's this?"
The weakness gradually subsided where the heat flowed, and the hunger was gone. "Phew~ That feels so good!"
Bai Hechou slumped down, the warm feeling on his body making him feel sleepy again. "I really have been eating and sleeping all the time."
With a sigh, Bai Hechou lay down and went to sleep. There was nothing wrong with that. He just needed to eat, sleep, and grow up quickly so he could go out.
A long time passed, and Bai Hechou still didn't know the specifics, since he didn't have a watch or anything like that, nor did a system suddenly pop into his head to keep track of time for him.
"It seems like I can get out now." Bai Hechou felt that the space around him was extremely small, and the eggshell was squeezing his body, making him very uncomfortable.
Bai Hechou took a deep breath (even though there was no air inside the egg) and slammed his head against the eggshell in front of him. "Crack!"
The eggshell cracked, and the light streaming in made Bai Hechou instinctively squint. At the same time, he heard a loud shout: "Bixie! Bixie! My little brother is born! He's born!"
As his eyes gradually adjusted to the light, Bai Hechou opened them. What came into view were two golden creatures, one red and one blue—no, they looked like Pixiu.
Looking at this familiar appearance, Bai Hechou thought: ...Damn! Isn't this You Shouyan? I've actually come to this world! I think I used to call the people outside my parents "cheap parents," how embarrassing!
Just as Bai Hechou was agonizing over his careless way of addressing him, Tianlu stepped forward, picked up the eggshell that Bai Hechou had smashed on the ground, and handed it to him, saying, "Little brother, quickly look at the message that Heaven and Earth left for you. Your name is on it."
"Ah, oh, okay." Interrupted from his thoughts, Bai Hechou finally realized what was happening and subconsciously reached out his paw to tap it.
Immediately afterwards, a dignified male voice rang out: "Child, you have two older brothers who will take care of you. There are three brothers in the Discipline Inspection Commission... over there they need..."
I didn't understand much of the long passage in classical Chinese that followed, so it was like I wasted my breath when I heard the Heavenly Emperor's words.
"Hurry up and look at this green strip; that's your name!"
Hearing Tianlu's urging, Bai Hechou realized that he had just ordered a golden strip, so...
Bai Hechou reached out and clicked on the message on the ground: "You are a Pixiu, and your name is Bai Jie."
"Hundred Solutions, well, that's to be expected. But it's a good name, so let's call it Hundred Solutions from now on."
