Chapter 424 Will Degenerate into an Egg
Reading Settings
Five centimeters is not one or two centimeters.
Moreover, even if it is dwarfism, it just means that the person grows slowly and then stops growing at a certain point. I have never heard of someone shrinking five centimeters in six months.
Then, Qiao Qiao was taken by Qiao Changdong and underwent all the necessary examinations.
Aside from some test results that couldn't be released today, Qiao Qiao had no other problems. In fact, some of her physical indicators were as healthy as textbook standards.
When Yan Liti and Shen Qingyan returned from their casual stroll around the hotel with Grandpa Wang, Yan Xiaoqing, and Grandma Qiao, Yan Liti did not find Qiao Qiao in the suite.
I asked the receptionist downstairs and learned that in the afternoon, Qiao Changdong took Qiao Qiao to the hospital with a serious expression.
"Why did you go to the hospital? Do you know what happened? My baby is injured?" Yan Liti asked anxiously.
The two young women at the front desk shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know either.
Qiao Changdong left in a hurry, with a serious expression, and was followed by three bodyguards, so they didn't dare to ask him anything.
All we could do now was comfort Yan Liti, saying, "Aunt Yan, we saw that Qiaoqiao wasn't injured. It's probably because of something else. Don't worry."
"Yes, Aunt Yan, don't worry, Qiaoqiao is a good girl, she'll be fine."
"It's alright, it's definitely alright. I looked closely when I went out, and Qiaowawa's complexion was perfectly normal; she didn't look sick at all."
All the hotel staff knew Qiao Qiao and genuinely liked their boss's lovely daughter. Seeing Yan Liti's anxiety and worry, they came over to comfort her.
Even so, when Shen Qingyan went to get the car, Yan Liti was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.
No amount of persuasion could stop him; he just kept pacing around the hotel lobby.
Her mind was filled with negative fantasies.
When Shen Qingyan drove his car from the parking lot and honked the horn at the hotel entrance, the four elderly people hurriedly walked out, but they saw Qiao Changdong and his group's car returning halfway there.
Qiao Changdong, with a solemn expression, carried Qiao Qiao out of the car.
Yan Liti rushed over: "What's wrong? What's wrong? Is the baby sick? Is he feeling unwell anywhere?" As she spoke, her voice choked with emotion.
Grandma Qiao and the other two elderly people didn't ask, but their faces were full of worry and anxiety.
"Let's go back to our room first," Qiao Changdong said with a heavy expression.
After returning to his room, Qiao Changdong briefly recounted what had happened.
"We've done a full set of tests, and the results won't be out until tomorrow," Qiao Changdong said finally.
His brows were furrowed tightly.
Everyone says that children grow quickly and can grow three or four centimeters in six months, but this child not only didn't grow, but actually shrank by five centimeters, which is very abnormal.
The whole family was completely baffled.
Xiao Yuan couldn't understand it either.
It should be noted that its initial height was only two centimeters, about the size of a human fingernail, but now it has grown to an astonishing forty-seven centimeters!
Its owner is not only not growing, but also shrinking!
Qiao Qiao was also having some doubts.
The gloomy expressions on everyone's faces were broken when the giant tortoise, who had gone out to hunt for food, suddenly appeared in the suite.
As a giant tortoise that is several hundred years old, just as Wang Zhenhua said, it has a large appetite, consuming about 15 kilograms of food a day, including vegetables, fruits, and meat.
Five jin (2.5 kg) each morning, noon, and night.
This is even with it having only eaten a little, without having eaten its fill.
However, the giant tortoise did not let Qiao Qiao take care of its food. Instead, it would disappear for a while every day to go out and hunt for wild food, and only come back after it had eaten and drunk its fill.
When it's convenient, I'll also bring some for Qiao Qiao.
For example, this time, it brought Qiao Qiao a grass carp weighing over 100 pounds.
The carp was still alive when it appeared in the house, its tail wagging from time to time, and it was incredibly lively.
When it appeared in the house, it immediately went to find Qiao Qiao.
Her voice was full of joy: "Master, Master, Little Huanhuan brought you something delicious! It's a big bluefish!"
It appeared before everyone, their faces full of sorrow, carrying a large bluefish weighing over a hundred pounds in its mouth, with most of the fish's body dragging on the ground. It would occasionally flick its tail, leaving a trail of wet marks on the ground.
Everyone was surprised to see it carrying a large bluefish out of Qiao Qiao's room, but since they were all discussing Qiao Qiao's shrunk height, they didn't pay much attention to this.
Yan Xiaoqing had already taken out her phone book, ready to make calls one by one, to find her connections in the medical field and get Qiao Qiao a comprehensive and scientific examination.
Once the giant tortoise figures out what everyone is worried about.
It tilted its head in surprise, looking at Qiao Qiao, and asked her in its mind: "Master, didn't you know? You can shrink!"
"What?" Qiao Qiao looked completely bewildered.
What do you mean by "she's bound to shrink"?
She looked at the large turtle that had lost the big bluefish and was now paddling its four short, fleshy claws toward her, puzzled.
[Master, not only will you shrink, but when you reach the Golden Core stage and the spiritual energy in your body becomes increasingly pure, you will also transform into an egg.]
"???" Qiao Qiao.
Will she transform into an egg?!
【Master, because your bloodline is not pure, and half of the genes in your blood belong to the humans of this world, not entirely to the Dragon Clan of the Cultivation Continent.】
Therefore, in your initial form, before you began cultivating, this world was your primary focus, not the cultivation continent.
Your mother gave you dragon marrow grass before and personally guided you to guide qi into your body, but that was only the most basic marrow cleansing, which could only wash away the impurities you had ingested in this world over the years.
A deeper level of marrow cleansing still requires your own cultivation.
This process is called the purification of bloodline, or the awakening of bloodline.
In other words, as you cultivate and accumulate spiritual energy within your body, your initial form will be based on the cultivation continent, rather than this world.
When your cultivation reaches the Golden Core stage, which is your initial form, and you have completely transformed into the form of the cultivation continent.
"???" Qiao Qiao.
Qiao Qiao was even more confused.
Simply put, as your spiritual power increases, you will become smaller and shorter until you eventually turn into an egg, a dragon egg that needs to be hatched.
Because the dragon egg was your original form in the cultivation world.
"!!!" Qiao Qiao.
She could hardly believe her ears.
She actually turned into an egg?!
Seeing Qiao Qiao's chubby face contorted in distress and silent, the giant tortoise assumed she was troubled by her cultivation.
She then comforted him, saying, "Master, don't worry. You have excellent potential. It only took you twenty-five years to hatch from your shell, which is quite remarkable among dragons."
Besides, you now have Xiao Huanhuan, who will help you, and the baby will hatch even faster than before.
"!!!" Qiao Qiao.
Is the question now about how long it takes for the eggs to hatch?
