Chapter 628 Side Story The Bird and The Snake (1/2)
In the warm tree hole, there were over a dozen dark green eggs that were the size of an adult's fist. The entrance of the tree hole was sealed with a thin layer of mud; the mud was also mixed with some hay.
Coo. Coo. From outside the tree hole, one could hear the unique call of the egg-thief bird, similar to the cooing of a widow that lived next door.
After ensuring there was no response to its call, the egg-thief bird was happy. It carefully reached its claws out toward the dry mud on the tree hole and gently started scraping. Soon, it had scraped a big hole in the front of the tree hole.
It sneakily peered through the big hole into the tree. Its eyes shone when it saw the eggs.
Coo. Coo. Coo… The exuberant call of the egg-thief bird could be heard from the rest of the woods.
Struggling into the tree hole, the sharp beak pecked an eggshell, and the thick yellow yolk flowed out.
Two slender legs scrambled around, one by one, as the eggs near the tree hole were kicked down.

What's that sound?
A Green Parrot bounced out of the shrubs, and its little face was filled with vigilance. This was the most cautious parrot on the hillside! After rummaging through the thick grass for a while, the Green Parrot found a dark green egg that was bigger than its belly.
The Green Parrot spread open its wings, wearing an incredulous look. The egg was so big! It slyly looked around, then used its belly to lift the egg and head to its nest.
Upon returning to the nest, the Green Parrot swallowed its saliva. Although it liked eating berries and fresh leaves, it occasionally ate small bugs, earthworms, and similar insects to satisfy its appetite.
It refused to admit that it was too stupid to catch bugs. Those bugs were just too cunning.
A huge egg like this had to be delicious.
The Green Parrot swallowed its saliva and danced happily in the nest. Where should I start? The Green Parrot was in a dilemma. Its belly bumped into the egg, and its thick beak was like a backhand punch to the shell. The egg swayed, and a web-like crack appeared in the place where it was hit.
