My husband is too wild, I need to go home and find my mom.

Chapter 129 Two snake eggs hatched

Lin Ni was watching the two swaying snake eggs with Bai Ji and Yao when Ye ran back from outside: "I'm back! Have the little ones come out yet?"

Linni glanced at him and saw that Bai and Yan were still guarding the cave entrance. She wondered if the two male beastmen had followed them, but that wasn't the point. She wanted to see how her baby was born.

Linni and Ye huddled together to watch the baby snake being born, while Yao and Baiji walked out of the cave.

Suddenly, one of the snake eggs cracked open. Lin Ni peered through the crack and saw a tiny eyeball, black and translucent, like a black pearl, nestled against the edge of the shell. It seemed to have noticed Lin Ni and quickly withdrew. Lin Ni simply squatted down and patiently waited nearby. After a while, a pink forked tongue emerged from the egg, exploring this new world. Then, another snake egg hatched, also releasing a pink forked tongue. Next, a small snake's head emerged from a white membrane. Soon, another pale blue head appeared from the egg. The two little snakes, one white and one blue, eagerly poked their upper bodies out of their shells. They looked left and right, curiously observing this unfamiliar world, then turned to Lin Ni, flicking their tongues and blinking their eyes, as if trying to be cute.

Although she was born of herself, Linni was still a little scared, and she involuntarily leaned back while reaching out to support Ye. Ye thought she was tired of squatting, so he transformed his lower body into a snake tail and let her sit on his tail.

Linni sat on Night's tail, watching the two small snakes struggle inside their shells. After a while, they finally crawled out and began to slowly swim towards Linni. Linni helped Night to her feet and moved away, asking, "Night, what should I do? Should I hold them?"

Night reached out and picked up Linni, and then the two small snakes crawled onto Night's tail. Their bodies were fifty or sixty centimeters long, smooth and glossy, one silvery-white and the other pale blue. They lacked Night's diamond-shaped markings and other patterns, appearing almost artificial. However, they kept circling Night's tail, occasionally flicking their tongues. Night noticed Linni's fear and whispered, "You can hug them if you like, or not if you don't. They recognize your scent and won't hurt you. These little snakes aren't poisonous; they can't kill small animals."

Lin Ni breathed a sigh of relief. She was terrified of the baby she gave birth to. But honestly, she really didn't want to have a snake egg! She just didn't want to tell Ye about this misunderstanding. Suddenly remembering something, she looked up and asked, "Ye, I think I heard someone say that snakes have inherited memories; they don't need to learn many things, they're born with them. Is that true?"

Ye looked surprised: "Is there really such a good thing? But I don't have any inherited memories!"

Okay, if not, then not. Linni looked at the snakes swimming around on the ground and asked, "So what do they do now? What do they eat?"

Night said, "They can just eat animal meat."

Night carried Linni to the side and tore off a palm-sized piece of the leftover meat Yao had cooked that morning. Two small snakes had already slithered to Linni's feet. Linni stood there, frozen, too afraid to move, as the snakes coiled around her feet. Night removed the snakes from Linni's feet, and they began to coil around his hand. Night then placed them on the ground and used their tails to keep them from crawling any closer. He then tore the meat into pieces about the thickness of his little finger and placed them on leaves. The snakes, attracted by the aroma, crawled over and ate. They swallowed the meat whole, then slowly slurped it down.

Linni was still a little scared, but Ye said they wouldn't hurt her, so their chasing her must be a sign of affection? She took the shredded meat from Ye's hand, squatted down, and fed it to the little snake: "Ye, what are their names?"

Ye looked at the little snake eating in Lin Ni's hand: "You can take it."

Lin Ni wasn't very good at naming things either. She looked up at Ye and said, "They are your cubs, so they'll take your surname, Ye. One of them will be called Ye Qing, and the other Ye-Yin." She had originally wanted to say Ye Bai, but thinking of Bai, she decided to call them Yin instead.

Ye nodded happily: "Is that even possible? Lin, the name you chose is so beautiful!"

Linni smiled and gently stroked the silver snake that was eating: "Is Little Silver the older brother? He was born first, so they're both male, right?"

Night nodded: "Yes, they are all male beasts. Weren't they supposed to be called Night Silver? Why are they also called Little Silver?"

Lin Ni explained, "Xiao Yin is, well, only close people call them that. When they grow up, they can't be called Xiao Yin anymore. They can be called Yin, A Yin, or just by their full name: Ye Yin."

Ye nodded as if she understood, then suddenly asked, "Just like Lin? Your name is Lin Ni, so I can call you Xiao Ni or Lin."

Lin Ni looked at Ye in surprise: "Yes, how did you know my name is Lin Ni?"

Ye gestured towards the cave entrance and said, "That's what those two men outside said."

"?" What's going on? How do they know my name? Lin Ni looked outside curiously and saw Bai and Yan guarding the cave entrance, but she couldn't see Yao and the two men.

Linni walked towards the cave entrance. Bai Ji made way for her, and Linni saw Yao talking to the two dark blue-haired men. These two blue-haired men were broad-shouldered and tall, the kind of T-shaped clothes hangers, with well-defined muscles on their arms. Yao was slightly shorter than them, but much more muscular. Having grown accustomed to Ye and Bai's massive muscles, and Yao's perfect proportions, she now found anyone thinner than Yao to be almost too thin, giving off a somewhat frail impression.

The two male orcs also saw Linni and gave her bright smiles: "Hello! You must be Linni?"

It had been a long time since anyone had addressed her like that, and she was still a little unaccustomed to it! Lin Ni nodded: "Yes, I am. And you are?"

"We've finally found you! That's wonderful!" The gentle-looking man looked at Lin Ni with bright, sparkling eyes and said, "We come from the vast North Sea. My name is Xuan, and this is Ling. The Beast God sent us to find you."

"The Beast God sent us to find you?!" This statement stunned everyone present. They had all assumed that the Beast God was asleep, and apart from the blessing bestowed upon everyone by the stone tablet representing the Beast God, the Beast God had never given any divine pronouncements. At least, no one in the towering mountains and steep cliffs had ever heard of receiving a divine pronouncement from the Beast God. How could this person claim that they were sent by the Beast God?

Lin Ni looked at Yao in astonishment. Yao was obviously unaware of the situation either: "We were just talking about the towering mountains, the sheer cliffs, and the vast North Sea."
