Chapter 4: The egg is going to give birth

1941 Words
Fan Yuexing picked up the ore on the ground. The surface was covered with some dust, but it did not affect the beauty of the ore. Fan Yuexing wiped it on her body and turned around, "Catch it." Immediately, the ore flew out from Fan Yuexing's hand. Although Deng Yi was resting, his sight had been staying on Fan Yuexing, and his instinctive action allowed him to receive this ore. "Here is yours back." Fan Yuexing didn't like owing others. "Didn't I say you don't need to return it?" Deng Yi was somewhat helpless. It was not easy to see a girl of the same age, but why was she still a thorned rose? "And...compared to the ore, I rather know how you did it." Deng Yi stared at Fan Yuexing with an uncertain expression. He had lived in the Prison Star for many years. Unless there were unexpected circumstances, he would never stop mining. Deng Yi considered himself to be one of the higher ones among his peers in terms of spiritual power. Even so, after mining for a while, he still needed to rest for a while, but Fan Yuexing seemed to have no such concern? "Are your spiritual powers very high?" Deng Yi asked curiously. Fan Yuexing did not reply. She raised the shovel and hit the wall again. Fan Yuexing did not speak, and Deng Yi assumed that she had tacitly agreed. Fan Yuexing dug another ore down again, and the speed was so fast that even Deng Yi couldn't sit still. "You asked why I didn't need to rest?" When Deng Yi thought that Fan Yuexing would not reply, Fan Yuexing slowly spoke. "Well." Fan Yuexing's sudden reply made Deng Yi perk up. He looked at Fan Yuexing hopefully, hoping that she could give an answer. "It's simple, just save spiritual power." "When you use the shovel, do you use spiritual power to wrap the entire shovel?" Fan Yuexing stopped the mining action and looked at Deng Yi quietly. Deng Yi was silent for a moment, recalling what he had just done. It seemed that...indeed...that was what he had done. Seeing Deng Yi nod, Fan Yuexing continued, "I only let the spiritual power cover the part that needs to come into contact with the wall." Fan Yuexing's few words made Deng Yi suddenly see the light. Using less spiritual power would make it last longer. "That's how it is..." Deng Yi became enlightened. "But this should be more tiring." Spiritual power is not easily controllable. It is already a selection of a large number of people to be able to let the spiritual power cover the shovel, not to mention covering only the place where it comes into contact with the wall. "There are gains and losses." Fan Yuexing replied calmly. Getting Fan Yuexing's experience, Deng Yi had no reason to sit and continue to rest. He stood up, but did not go deep into the mine cave to continue mining, but instead walked to Fan Yuexing's side. "You are using the force wrongly, it's too tiring. Look at mine." Deng Yi had more mining experience than Fan Yuexing, and as he demonstrated beside her, he explained and told Fan Yuexing his experience. Fan Yuexing also stopped the mining action and listened carefully to Deng Yi's speech. With Deng Yi's selfless guidance, Fan Yuexing adjusted her posture and point of force, aimed at the ore on the wall, and with this shovel, Fan Yuexing did not use all her strength. With one shovel down, the ore landed easily. Fan Yuexing looked at Deng Yi, "Thank you." Deng Yi was not proud, "Reciprocity." After saying that, Deng Yi walked towards his own mine cave and started working. Fan Yuexing, a new person, was working so hard, so what excuse did he have to rest? After half a day, Fan Yuexing felt a severe headache in her brain, obviously due to severe consumption of spiritual power, and the muscles all over her body were also sore and weak. This was her first time working and doing physical labor, and she had been working for an entire morning. It was impossible not to be tired. Fan Yuexing sat on the ground to rest and prepared to take some nutrient solution to recover her physical and mental strength. At the same time, she also started to count the ores mined in the morning. Fan Yuexing had a rich harvest. In just one morning, she mined 52 ores. One ore was worth five star coins, and Fan Yuexing became rich in a wave. Deng Yi came out from the inside of the mine cave, with a hint of helplessness on his face, "You finally are going to rest." Deng Yi had wanted to rest a long time ago. The physical fatigue was not a big deal, but the mental fatigue was more serious. However, Fan Yuexing did not rest, and Deng Yi did not want to admit defeat. Deng Yi reached for the nutrient solution he brought. In order to save time, they usually ate lunch in the mine cave. Fan Yuexing drank the nutrient solution for the second time, and already started to miss the bread from yesterday. Fan Yuexing cleared all the ores in the mine cave. In the end, Fan Yuexing collected a total of 107 ores and filled the whole bag. It wasn't dark yet, but Deng Yi was already ready to leave, "Let's go together...when it gets dark, there will be a lot of people and things to look at." Deng Yi looked at his pocket. It had never been so full before...Now that the mine resources were depleted, Deng Yi had decided to leave the mine and go to a more dangerous place to look for resources. In the last few days, meeting Fan Yuexing and making this new friend, Deng Yi was also surprised. The future was confusing, and Deng Yi put aside the troubles in the future and showed a bright smile, with eight neat white teeth, even brighter than the sun. "Will you come tomorrow?" Deng Yi looked at Fan Yuexing, looking forward to this new friend coming again tomorrow. Fan Yuexing nodded, "I will still come tomorrow!" "Then I'll bring you some local specialties from our Prison Star. I guarantee that thing will definitely make you like it. It's unique to our Prison Star and you can't eat it anywhere else." Deng Yi said proudly, playing a riddle. Fan Yuexing smiled and nodded, "Then I'll look forward to it!" The two talked and laughed as they walked to the ore exchange place. "It's you again." Wu Li was bored looking through the messages on the star network. It wasn't his peak working time now. "Five star coins, right? Put out your hand." Wu Li didn't even bother to open his eyelids and naturally assumed that Fan Yuexing had come over after digging up just one ore. "Not five star coins." Fan Yuexing placed the heavy bag on the table. The sound of the heavy object being placed on the table attracted Wu Li's attention. "We don't accept ordinary stones here." Wu Li muttered to himself. Fan Yuexing grabbed the bag's butt and poured all the ores in the pocket out. The ores quickly covered the entire table, and one even rolled under the table, right on Wu Li's little finger. "Ouch, damn it." Wu Li covered his toe, his expression distorted in pain, but what really shocked him was the whole table of ores. When did a new ore vein be discovered in their mining area? Wu Li saw Deng Yi behind Fan Yuexing. He recognized Deng Yi. Deng Yi had been mining here since he was a child. Even after the mining income decreased, Deng Yi still insisted on mining here. Could it be given by Deng Yi? Wu Li began to count the ores on the table seriously. More than one hundred ores. Even at the time when there were the most ores, only a few people could mine more than one hundred ores in a day. Immediately, Deng Yi also stepped forward and placed his bag on the table, "Count mine." Wu Li looked at the bulging bag in astonishment. That one person could mine so many, and how could both of them? When did the ores in the mine become as common as the common cabbages? In the past, the number of ores mined by Deng Yi was no more than fifty, but today he had almost mined a hundred ores?! Wu Li's eyes were surprised and undetermined, and his gaze swept back and forth between Fan Yuexing and Deng Yi. "Have you discovered the ore vein?" Wu Li narrowed his eyes and could only think of this explanation. Deng Yi chuckled. The two had known each other for a long time, "Uncle, you think too much. We just had good luck and found a mine cave that no one had been to before. We two locusts passed through, and all the ores in it were mined out." Deng Yi was just young, and his tanned skin coupled with his cheerful smile made him look somewhat simple and honest. This kind of simplicity made people not doubt Deng Yi. But Wu Li didn't buy Deng Yi's act. One person mined one hundred ores, even an experienced veteran rarely could do that. And that silent girl was a new person!! When did a new person could mine one hundred ores in a day? Was this still the Prison Star where criminals had a hard time living? "Put out your bracelet." Wu Li sighed and chose to ask less. More than five hundred star coins entered the account, which made Fan Yuexing's corner of the mouth rise quietly. On the second day after coming to the interstellar, the harvest was not bad. "See you tomorrow." Deng Yi waved to Fan Yuexing, and the two said goodbye and left separately. Fan Yuexing returned to her residence, and the small flower pot placed on the balcony was already filled with green. The green and lovely look was particularly pleasant. Fan Yuexing was greedy, and immediately pulled out a few and washed them and ate them raw. The prison star was lacking in materials, and the food was only nutrient solution. There were no condiments. The lettuce that was produced by the system was crispy and tender, sweet and refreshing. If it could be sandwiched with a piece of streaky pork, it would be a killer. But in this damn place, not to mention streaky pork, even oil could not be found. Fan Yuexing's wish could only come to nothing. The remaining lettuce Fan Yuexing did not intend to move anymore. She was not a rabbit and did not have the idea of eating vegetables every day. Fan Yuexing only turned around to look for a thing to hold the garbage, and as soon as she turned her head, she saw the egg that had been pretending to be dead suddenly appear on the garbage she was about to discard. Although it was just an egg, it had no expression and could not speak, but Fan Yuexing could see from the shell that it was 'coveting' the lettuce leaves. It seemed hungry like a person who had been hungry for half a month and saw a roast pig. Such a 'greedy' egg made Fan Yuexing raise her eyebrows unexpectedly. As for that? "Could it be that there is a pig inside the egg?" Immediately, something even more unexpected happened to Fan Yuexing. With a click, a c***k appeared in the egg shell.
