"Uh, what the hell is this?"
The old Taoist squatted beside the pit and looked down.
The part of the old turtle's consciousness in the tortoise shell man's body has already left the body in order to take over Boss Zhou's body. Now, it must have become a snack.
But the body of the tortoise shell man is still here. The pit was caused by the previous explosion. There was some liquefied liquid in it. Now it seems that some groundwater is seeping upwards, forming a puddle of considerable size.
The tortoise shell man's body began to shrink. Yes, instead of expanding while floating in the puddle, he actually began to shrink.
The little monkey squatted beside the Taoist's feet, looking at the turtle below, and from time to time he stretched out his hand tentatively forward, as if he really wanted to go up and touch it.
"I say, what is this?"
The old Taoist asked Xu Qinglang who was standing next to him.
The boss' body was placed on the straw bed, and the little boy stood beside him to protect him. On this point, the little boy did not need anyone to tell him what to do.
Yingying didn't come back, but the matter was over anyway. After hearing the black girl say that the boss let the old turtle take over the body, Xu Qinglang and the little boy were not panicked. Although the boss didn't wake up now, he might be chatting about development plans with the big boss inside, so there shouldn't be any danger.
So no one went to inform Yingying, so that she wouldn't be shocked and rush back in a hurry after receiving the news.
"A turtle, or a human turtle?"
Xu Qinglang organized his words. In fact, this guy should be similar to himself. He could be considered a "human" who inherited some of the mermaid's power, but he had a certain degree of initiative and had his own controllable seal, while the other "human beings" might really be just puppets.
"Sri Lankan First!!!"
The old Taoist gave a Japanese exclamation.
Pointing at the tortoise shell man below,
road:
"Is this the legendary... Ninja Turtles?"
Xu Qinglang knew that the Taoist priest was playing tricks, so he was happy to cooperate with him and said, "Yes, his name is Da Vinci."
"Haha, look, it's getting smaller again."
Streams of dark green liquid kept dripping out of the tortoise shell man's body, and his body was changing as well, shrinking continuously. Slowly, he actually became the body of a teenager, but the extent of the shrinkage of the tortoise shell was not obvious, which made him look very unusual.
Deadpool was planted back into the ground by the black girl with his eyes closed.
But next to the puddle, there was a yellow flower blooming, and he had actually been watching the situation in the puddle.
"What should we do with this turtle? We need a super-large water tank or something to keep it. It won't even fit in our bathtub. Tsk tsk, the boss is going to spend money again."
"Just cook it and eat it." Xu Qinglang said indifferently.
"It has a human shape, how do you eat it?"
"Chop it up and make dumplings. I won't tell you and you will definitely enjoy eating it."
"You are a devil!"
"Don't worry. He was the one who gave me the fish. How much do you think Old Zhou must hate him? By the time Old Zhou wakes up, he will be almost done."
"Yeah, that's right. Even if a truck crashed into the door of the bookstore, the boss probably wouldn't be as angry as he is now."
The old Taoist stood up.
It seems that I have been squatting for a long time.
My feet are a little numb.
After he stood up, his body shook.
If Xu Qinglang, who was standing next to him, had not been quick to pull him out, the Taoist priest might have fallen into the ditch.
"Be careful."
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay."
The old Taoist took a deep breath.
Pretend to sneeze.
He pulled out a square scarf from the sleeve of his robe.
“A-choo!”
“Huh…”
Wiped his nose vigorously.
Then he quickly folded the handkerchief and held it in his hand.
The little monkey next to him looked at the Taoist priest blankly, and the Taoist priest reached out and rubbed its little head.
"I said, if this guy is smaller, it would be nice to lift him up in a big fish tank. It's not edible anyway, so it's okay to keep him as an ornamental pet.
That's right.
Can this turtle lay eggs?"
"I don't know." Xu Qinglang shook his head. "If I hadn't come to the bookstore, I might never have come into contact with so many strange ingredients in my life."
"If it can lay eggs, keep it. If it can't, forget it. If it can lay eggs, get up in the morning, crack a few eggs, make some egg custard or make some egg fried rice in the evening. That's also very delicious, very delicious!"
"Gulp!"
As soon as the old Taoist finished speaking,
Suddenly, a string of bubbles appeared from under the tortoise shell of the tortoise shell man.
Next,
A green egg larger than a goose egg floated out.
“… …” old Taoist.
“… …”Lao Xu.
In the mud,
Deadpool with eyes closed,
His expression relaxed a little.
Xu Qinglang squatted down beside the puddle.
The old Taoist also squatted down again.
"Did this really lay eggs?"
"It's such a terrifying desire to survive that it actually forced the male turtle to lay eggs."
The old Taoist looked at Xu Qinglang with some surprise and asked:
“Are turtles also divided into male and female?”
“It’s generally based on the thickness of the tail. The male turtle’s tail is thicker and bigger, while the female turtle’s tail is thinner and shorter.
Another thing is whether the plastron is concave. Male turtles have a distinct concave plastron, while female turtles have a flat plastron. When turtles mate, the male is on top and the female is on the bottom. In order to avoid slipping off the female turtle's shell during mating, the male turtle's plastron is slightly concave, just enough to fit the protruding back shell of the female turtle; however, female turtles do not need this structure, so the plastron is flat. "
The old Taoist widened his eyes and looked at Xu Qinglang several more times.
"Old Xu, didn't you say you've never cooked with turtles? How do you know so much about it?"
“I’ve been a turtle.”
"oh… "
It seems to make sense.
The old Taoist took out a cigarette, put it to his nose and sniffed it, and said with some regret:
"What a pity, it's just one egg. Even though it's a little big, it's not enough to eat. Not even enough to make fried rice."
"Gulp!"
Another egg.
It rolled out from the lower edge of the turtle shell.
“Ohh!!!!”
The Taoist priest pointed excitedly at the egg suspended in the puddle.
Xu Qinglang stroked his forehead and there was no fuck to say.
Deadpool, with only his head left in the mud in the distance, sighed softly.
Huh…
“Boom!”
The black girl hit Deadpool on the head.
Deadpool opened his eyes.
The black girl pointed at Deadpool's face.
He scolded her all over.
It's just that the scolding was just moving his mouth, no sound was made.
Deadpool smirked and closed his eyes again.
The black girl pouted, too lazy to "scold" anymore, turned her head and looked towards the puddle.
Is this brother-in-law now cowardly and afraid
Why couldn't there be a forced number earlier
Wouldn't it be better to just go up to their house and bow down
Anyway, my boss seems to have a dream of opening a zoo, so one more person won't make much difference.
Now,
Not only did he betray his own brother,
Now I have to work hard to lay eggs in order to survive.
Why bother
Why bother
However, human needs and greed are endless, and human demands on nature are unrestrained. This is clearly reflected in the old Taoist.
"Well, two won't work either. It's not enough. Three seems to be about right."
After the old Taoist finished speaking,
Still looking forward to it,
But wait and wait,
No more eggs slipped out.
Can’t hold it in anymore
well,
A bit disappointed.
Deadpool on the other side of the mud had his eyes closed but he clenched his teeth. He could feel his brother's efforts, and he was here to cheer for his brother!
Deadpool doesn't know how to lay eggs, but he thinks he can just try hard.
finally,
With the brothers working together,
"Gulp!"
The third egg came out, but it was about one-third smaller than the previous two eggs. It must have reached its limit.
"That's great. Three eggs a day is enough."
The old Taoist stroked his goat beard.
"We are what we call living in seclusion. We live in the city center, but we can take care of our own daily necessities soon. We had vegetables and fruits before, and now we have eggs too. After a while, we can catch a few pig monsters or cow monsters and we won't have to buy meat anymore.
I used to think that my boss always liked to bring things home, and I thought he didn’t know how to live. Now I think I really blamed him wrongly. This is the rhythm of opening a small farm of my own.”
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Do you want to eat eggs?"
"Yeah, this is so fresh."
"Not disgusting?"
"What's so disgusting about that? When the chicken farmer takes the eggs out of the henhouse, the eggs are still covered in chicken shit."
"But it's no use wanting to eat. The boss must want him dead."
"Yeah, that's right."
The old Taoist smacked his lips.
Between my own appetite and my boss's personal likes and dislikes,
He knows.
It must be the latter that has the upper hand, and it is absolutely dominant.
"Boss, are you awake?"
Came the little boy's voice.
The old Taoist and Xu Qinglang, who were squatting by the puddle, turned around and saw Zhou Ze standing up and walking towards them.
"Boss, are you okay?" the old Taoist greeted him immediately.
Zhou Ze looked at the old Taoist priest.
In the eyes,
Somewhat complicated,
This complicated look made the old Taoist feel uneasy.
In the past, every time I went out with my boss, whenever I ate something wrong or encountered something, my boss seemed to look at me like this.
"Old Zhou, this guy is still alive."
Xu Qinglang pointed at the man with the tortoise shell in the puddle, meaning that he wanted Zhou Ze to take action and deal with him as soon as possible so that they could clean up the place.
"I just heard the Taoist priest say that he wanted to eat turtle eggs?"
"No, no, it's a rumor, nonsense, it's impossible!"
The old Taoist quickly waved his hand to deny it.
"Since you like to eat turtle eggs, just keep it to lay eggs. Go find a... Oh no, Lao Xu, thank you for your hard work. Go find a big fish tank and help me raise it."
Although Xu Qinglang felt a little puzzled, he still nodded in agreement.
"This... this..." The old Taoist rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly, "How can I be so embarrassed, boss."
Zhou Ze walked up to the old Taoist priest, who stood up silently.
Boss Zhou placed his hand on the Taoist's shoulder and patted him gently.
Whispered:
"Old Taoist."
"Ah, yes, boss, what do you want?"
"Eat something good."
