Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

In Baihe Mountain, outside the mountain temple.

The cold wind was howling and the snow was flying. The disasters, which were out of tune with this snow-covered world, turned their heads and looked at the three uninvited guests who suddenly appeared.

Uh no, it became two.

Xiao has already taken action, and no one can catch sight of him.

The green silk thread moved across the silver-white screen, wiping away the stains that didn't fit in with the screen one by one.

Green shadows danced in front of him. Old Li glanced at Mo Zuche beside him and couldn't help asking, "Aren't you going to help him?"

"No need." Mo Zuche touched his chin and replied, "I think the best way to help him is not to join in the fun. And if I leave, what if someone takes the opportunity to attack me?"

"That's right." Old Li nodded slightly and stopped talking.

It didn't take Xiao much time to deal with these disasters, even though there were two first-level emissaries stationed here, and the first-level emissaries were in the same realm as him.

Among these two first-level commanders, none of them was good at control, so the result was very simple. Xiao, with the blessing of the Primordial Sword, could have killed them both quickly. It was just that Xiao was afraid of accidentally destroying the temple with one attack, so he did not dare to activate the Yao Jing Nuo Dance, and was delayed a little.

After the area outside the temple was cleared, the three of them walked into the temple.

When passing by the pond in front of the temple, Xiao paused and looked sideways.

There is steam rising above the pool, which makes people feel warm just by looking at it. Obviously, this is a hot spring.

The water in the pond is very calm, like a pool of stagnant water, giving people a feeling that if they touch it, they will be unlucky, making people unwilling to get close.

Is this the pool of water that Mr. Li mentioned at that time?

Xiao thought.

He remembered the method that Lao Li told him at the beginning when he asked him about the way to the mountain god temple. There was a pool of water in front of the mountain god temple that would not freeze. The water in the pool would eventually flow into the Baihe River. If he went upstream along the Baihe River, he might be able to find the temple.

"Xiao, what are you looking at?"

Noticing that Xiao hadn't caught up, Mo Zuche took a few steps back and followed Xiao's gaze towards the calm pool of water. "Is there something in the water?"

Xiao's perception is comparable to the detection equipment produced by "Yuanliu", so he attaches great importance to Xiao's abnormal reactions.

Xiao shook his head, retracted his gaze, and took a few steps to catch up with Lao Li who was walking in the front.

Old Li looked at the temple, which was still arranged the same as when he left last time, and said, "It seems that these monsters are not brave enough to enter the temple of the mountain god."

"We have delivered the place to you, and the rest is up to you, sir." Mo Zuche said.

Old Li shook his head: "I still need your help."

After Xiao entered the temple, his eyes were attracted by the statue enshrined therein. The statue was a somewhat majestic and handsome dragon with a pair of wings. However, they were not the membrane-like wings of a Western dragon, but were similar to those of a bird.

Yinglong?

Xiao guessed and was a little curious. According to what Lao Li said before, the mountain god had been sleeping and should never have appeared. How did people in their lineage know what the mountain god looked like? Could it be through a dream?

It feels very likely.

The reason why he was sure that the shape of the statue was not imagined out of thin air by Lao Li's ancestors was because the dragon head of the gluten dragon he saw in his hallucination was almost exactly the same as the dragon head of the statue, which could not be a coincidence.

People of the same kind will inevitably be compared with each other, so Xiao said to himself: I don’t feel as handsome as the Emperor.

Then, he heard the green goblin say "hmm" softly.

At this moment, Xiao heard what Lao Li said, turned his eyes away from the statue, and asked, "Our help?"

Old Li nodded solemnly: "I asked you two to accompany me, not only for my own safety, but also to increase the success rate of my dream."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Mo Zuche asked the question that was in Xiao's mind.

Time was running out, so Old Li explained succinctly, "Although we have the ability to communicate through dreams, the Mountain God may not pay attention. However, if there is someone He is interested in during this process, the possibility of Him paying attention to us will be much greater."

What this means is that the mountain god is interested in Xiao and Mozuche.

Xiao was not surprised by this. After all, the mountain god had seen him twice in his dreams. He also felt that his appearance and bloodline, as well as his physique of three souls in one, were all worthy of the mountain god's further attention.

Although... this feeling of being seen through is not good.

Mo Zuche also had some clues in his mind, but he still asked curiously: "How did you know that the mountain god was interested in us? Did the mountain god tell you?"

Old Li shook his head: "The Mountain God would naturally not tell me such a thing, but I can 'see' the label He has put on you."

Lao Li cast his eyes towards Xiao: "Lord Mountain God is very interested in you. That is why I can see the worry in your face and suggest you go to the Mountain God Temple to 'ask'. Lord Mountain God will definitely give you an answer and will be happy to do so."

Hearing this, Xiao recalled what happened after he fell into the hallucination, and secretly complained: What on earth did He reply?

After that, Lao Li shifted his gaze to Mo Zuche: "And you have something that the mountain god is interested in."

"Are you referring to this?" Mo Zuche raised his hands, and the next moment, an egg appeared in his hands.

This egg is slightly larger than an ostrich egg, and its surface is very rough, like solidified lava. The eggshell is dark brown with molten gold lines that look like some kind of written symbols.

"What kind of egg is this?" Xiao asked in his heart.

"I don't know." The green goblin replied, "There is no life in the egg. It is already a dead egg."

Xiao recalled Mozuche's identity and the image of the mountain god, and made a bold guess: "Dragon egg fossil?"

"Maybe." Green Mandrill replied.

On the other side, Lao Li carefully looked at the egg in Mo Zuche's hand and nodded heavily: "That's right."

"Sure enough." Mo Zuche's eyes narrowed slightly and he muttered softly.

"What do you need us to do?" Xiao asked.

As Old Li searched the table next to the statue, he said, "The dream-telling ceremony is performed in the dragon's eye. I hope you can enter the pool, or hot spring, outside the temple."

Taking a hot spring bath again?

Xiao muttered to himself, wondering if the mountain god would look at him again and what he would dream about.

While Lao Li was looking for props for the ceremony, Xiao and Mozuche came out of the temple first.

Looking at the egg in Mozuche's hand, Xiao curiously asked about its origins.

At this point, Mo Zuche did not hide anything: "I brought it out from the ruins of an ancient city."

He paused, as if he was recalling something. He chuckled and continued, "During that exploration, the entire team almost got lost, and ended up bringing this thing out. It would have been a big loss to hand it in, so I used some tricks to hide it. If you run into my colleagues in the future, don't tell them about this."

"Then you hide your identity and bring this egg to Baihe City..."

"Although this egg looks like it has been dead for a while, it is actually still alive and can be hatched. There is an opportunity for it to hatch here in Baihe City."

Mo Zuche answered straightforwardly, without any intention of hiding anything, which made Xiao feel vaguely uneasy.

As if to verify Xiao's bad feeling, Mo Zuche, who had just revealed the truth, changed the subject: "What about you? The mountain god is very interested in you. He is even willing to share his power with your contracted beast to rescue you when you are in dire straits. According to the information I have read, this kind of situation rarely happens. In the thousands of years since Baihe City was founded, there have only been a few such incidents, and they can be counted on one hand."
