56: Unexpected surprise
Su Mianmian heard the words and looked full of anticipation.
She was very much looking forward to what kind of show Shi Xu would put on for her.
"I'm really looking forward to it. I hope it won't disappoint me."
Su Mianmian's lips curved slightly, a smile on her face.
Shi Xu raised his hand and rubbed her head, saying gently, "It definitely won't."
Su Mianmian returned to her room and immediately entered the space.
"Master, quickly look at that dragon egg, it's causing trouble every day!"
"I have to use my mind to tidy up the space every day, and I don't have time to cultivate anymore!"
As soon as book book saw Su Mianmian enter, it immediately started to complain.
Su Mianmian looked in the direction book book's branch was pointing and instantly had a face full of black lines.
Why did this dragon egg have to run into her vegetable garden and act wild?
"book book, restrict it to only move in open areas. Don't let it run off and destroy my grains and vegetables again!"
"If it really doesn't listen, then stew it and drink dragon soup."
Su Mianmian said, looking exasperated.
She said this to the dragon egg, originally thinking it wouldn't understand, but unexpectedly, after hearing her words, it actually trembled.
Now Su Mianmian found it interesting.
So this dragon egg could understand what she said.
With this realization, Su Mianmian pretended to cough and continued to threaten, "I think roasted dragon egg should be quite tasty. If it doesn't behave, then let's roast it!"
book book heard Su Mianmian say this and looked excited.
"Master, with your words, I understand. If it causes trouble again, I'll roast it!"
"To nourish your body."
book book didn't realize Su Mianmian was joking at all; it even started to think about how to roast the dragon egg.
The leaves on its branches were trembling, and anyone could see it was excited.
Su Mianmian smiled and said nothing.
The dragon egg rolled in front of Su Mianmian at this moment. Just as she wondered what it wanted to do, she felt its grievance.
Su Mianmian: "..."
It could do that?
"Master, it actually signed a contract with you!"
"I can't roast it anymore!"
"Ah ah ah!"
book book cried out in despair.
Su Mianmian was puzzled for a moment. When did she form a contract with this dragon egg?
How did she not know?
"book book, I didn't form a contract with it!"
"Are you mistaken?"
Su Mianmian looked at book book disapprovingly, saying helplessly.
Seeing that she didn't believe its words, book book said in despair, "Master, you can check your arm, isn't there a dragon mark there?"
Su Mianmian pulled up her sleeve and looked, and sure enough, there was a small dragon mark on her arm.
"There really is..."
"But when did I form a contract with it?"
"I have no recollection at all."
Su Mianmian shook her head, looking curiously at the dragon egg. Just now, she only felt it touch her, could it have been that one touch?
So... she was scammed by it?
Su Mianmian looked at the dragon egg with a complicated expression. For some reason, her hand felt a little itchy now.
She felt like smashing this dragon egg.
The dragon egg seemed to sense Su Mianmian's displeasure and frantically spun in place a few times.
Suddenly, it rubbed against Su Mianmian, and finding she didn't refuse, it rubbed a few more times.
Su Mianmian felt that if it had a face, it would definitely be full of fawning expressions right now.
She shook her head helplessly. Forget it, what was the point of arguing with it?
To "live," it had formed the lowest-level contract with her.
Su Mianmian no longer knew what to say.
"Master, if you don't like it, you can eliminate it in your mind."
"However, signing a contract with it has also brought you an opportunity."
book book said mysteriously.
Su Mianmian heard this and looked at book book curiously, asking, "What opportunity?"
How did she not know about this?
Seeing her impatience, book book no longer delayed and immediately revealed the opportunity she had gained.
Su Mianmian never expected that after contracting with a dragon, she could also gain the dragon's abilities.
This was an unexpected pleasant surprise.
"It's a pity it hasn't hatched yet, so I can't tell what abilities it has."
"But I think its abilities should be quite good."
book book shook the leaves on its body, and many leaves fell off.
It didn't care at all and wanted to keep shaking.
Su Mianmian advised, "book book, if you shake any more, you'll go bald..."
She looked at the few remaining leaves on book book and shook her head, saying helplessly.
If all the leaves fell off, it would be a bit... "But I'm so itchy!"
"Am I sick?"
book book already knew that the leaves on its body were getting fewer and fewer, but it was so itchy that it couldn't help but shake.
Seeing its discomfort, Su Mianmian walked up to it and touched its trunk.
The moment she touched it, book book's body glowed faintly.
Su Mianmian wanted to pull her hand away, but she couldn't move it at all.
She felt her power being absorbed by book book little by little, yet she could do nothing.
Just as she thought she was going to die like this, her power returned to her body at rocket speed.
After Su Mianmian received this power, she felt that the power within her body had increased even more.
Her current ability was probably at level two.
"Master, I've leveled up!"
"I can walk now!"
book book said, demonstrating its walking to Su Mianmian.
Su Mianmian: "..."
She used to see trees walking in cartoons, but now she could actually see a real tree walking.
Su Mianmian expressed that she had also broadened her horizons.
"So you need to absorb my power to level up?"
"What a dangerous way to level up."
Su Mianmian complained.
She almost thought she was going to die just now.
All the leaves on book book's body had grown back, and it was now lush and green, which it was a little unaccustomed to.
Hearing Su Mianmian's complaint, it quickly put away its playful mood and said aggrievedly, "Actually, I can level up slowly on my own, but if you help me, it will be faster."
Su Mianmian: "..."
So she had been wrong all along... book book seemed to sense Su Mianmian's speechlessness and tried hard to amuse her by her side.
Now it could not only walk but also freely change size.
book book was incredibly happy.
Su Mianmian looked at the joy radiating from book book and couldn't help but smile.
"Since you've leveled up, I'll leave the matters of the space to you."
"The education of the dragon egg is also entrusted to you."
"Don't let it destroy my things again!"
Su Mianmian gave the dragon egg a threatening look, then flashed out of the space.
She still had things to do and couldn't stay there with them for long.
After Su Mianmian left the space, book book began to arrange the dragon egg's activity area.
Since it was now Su Mianmian's spirit pet, book book wouldn't treat it poorly.
It directly assigned the dragon egg a large open space for it to play in.
The dragon egg looked at the open space before it with a wronged expression, indicating that it didn't like it.
"Don't even think about destroying Master's things. Be careful, if she sees it, she'll roast you!"
"Stay here obediently, and I'll bring your family and friends over later."
After book book finished speaking, it brought over the other dragon eggs.
Thus, the dragon egg's residence was settled.
After book book left, it left the dragon egg rolling around boredly.
When Su Mianmian came out of the space, she noticed that someone had been in her room.
She thought about it and figured it must have been Shi Xu or Su Jinxuan.
Besides the two of them, no one would casually enter her room.
She wondered why they were looking for her. Su Mianmian thought for a moment, and just as she was about to go out and ask, she heard a knock on the door.
Su Mianmian opened the door and saw a anxious Su Jinxuan.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"Did something happen?"
Su Mianmian was stunned for a moment, asking anxiously.
