Chapter 1214: Reincarnation is a skill

A tiny head popped out of the eggshell. The little dinosaur had a round head, a short neck, and its body was covered with fine, beige fur. Its eyes were round and bright like black grapes, curiously looking at everything around it.

"Wow! The little dinosaur is so cute!" Xiao Zhiwei couldn't help but exclaim softly, wanting to touch it with her little hand, but afraid of scaring it.

Xiao Zhixi squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly, "The little dinosaur is so much fun!"

The little dinosaur didn't seem afraid of people. It struggled to crawl out of its egg, shook its fur, and made soft, chirping sounds. It was a little unsteady on its feet, but it took small, unsteady steps and crawled toward Xiao Zhiqing, who was closest to it.

Xiao Zhiqing's eyes widened, and she cautiously reached out her hand. The little dinosaur gently rubbed its head against her palm, which felt ticklish and warm.

"It's so cute!" Xiao Zhiyan's face lit up with a delighted smile, her voice soft and gentle.

Xiao Haoyi squatted on the grass, watching the little dinosaur intently, and he couldn't be happier.

Then, the second and third dinosaur eggs also cracked open one after another.

Two equally adorable baby Maiasaura hatched one after the other. They followed the first baby dinosaur and waddled along the edge of the pit, occasionally chirping, which made the little ones exclaim in surprise, as if they had a little pet.

Lin Lang took out the berries he had prepared in advance and placed them in front of the little dinosaur.

The little ones immediately gathered around and started eating in small bites, their round bodies wiggling as they did so, making them especially adorable.

"Father, can we take the little dinosaur home?" Xiao Haozhe asked, tugging at Lin Lang's clothes with expectant eyes.

Lin Lang patted his son's head and said gently, "No, the core food of a newly hatched dinosaur is the semi-digested plant matter regurgitated by its mother. Besides, we can't simulate the Cretaceous environment at home. It's not so easy to raise a baby dinosaur."

Although the children were somewhat disappointed, they still nodded understandingly.

Wang Ailin squatted down beside the baby dinosaurs, gently stroking their fur, and pouted as she said, "But Father, you just said that their dinosaur mother was ambushed and eaten by the Deinosuchus while she was drinking water. Without their mother's care, they won't survive to adulthood, will they?"

Lin Lang replied gently, "Father can use the Beast Taming Technique to brainwash the other adult Maiasaura, making them believe that these three baby dinosaurs are their own cubs. That way, the three newly hatched baby dinosaurs will have an adoptive mother!"

"Wow, that's great! The little dinosaur has a mommy now!" Wang Ailin clapped her hands happily.

Hearing the baby dinosaur's soft, cuddly chirping, Chu Xia's heart melted. She smiled and said, "I never imagined that the baby Maiasaura was so cute. I've learned something new with my husband today."

Zhou Mengyao took Lin Lang's arm and said softly, "The children had so much fun on this Cretaceous journey!"

Ma Yili smiled and chimed in, "Yes! It's rare that our husbands have time to play with the children."

The little ones chattered excitedly, unable to contain their joy, gathered around the pit to observe the three newly hatched Maiasaura babies, as if they had discovered a new world, and engaged in simple interactions with the baby dinosaurs.

A faint cyan-gold spiritual light emanated from Lin Lang's fingertips, flowing slowly out of his palm, like crushed morning mist swirling around the three little mother dragons.

The three little dinosaurs seemed particularly drawn to the warm glow, and stopped pecking at the berries.

They all raised their round heads, rubbed their noses against the edge of the light, and made soft "chirping" sounds. The grass clippings stuck to their fur fell off gently as their little bodies swayed.

"The art of beast taming emphasizes empathy and understanding," Lin Lang explained softly to the children as he guided the spiritual light into the young dragon's body.

"Father should first let them remember this reassuring aura, then find a suitable adult mother dragon, use spiritual light to build a bridge, and let the foster mother feel the same sense of closeness."

The little ones all stared wide-eyed at their father, Lin Lang, as he performed his amazing feat.

The cyan-gold spiritual light gradually condensed into three slender strands of light, which drifted into the depths of the forest as if they were alive.

Not long after, the cry of a mother dragon echoed through the forest.

Immediately afterwards, a steady footstep sound came from afar, and a robust adult Maiasaura slowly walked out. Its body was covered with light brown scales, and its eyes initially held a hint of wariness.

But when his gaze fell upon the three beams of light and the three young dragons connected by them, his vigilance instantly turned into gentleness.

Lin Lang instructed, "Babies, step back a little so that the little dinosaur's foster mother can meet the three of them."

Zhou Mengyao, Chu Xia, and Ma Yili quickly led the children to move further back.

The adult Maiasaura slowly stepped forward and gently nuzzled the three newly hatched dinosaurs with its long snout, emitting a low and gentle whimper from its throat.

As if sensing a familiar presence, the baby dinosaurs scrambled to the feet of the adult Maiasaura, tilting their round heads back and making soft, sweet chirping sounds, as if they were begging for comfort from their new mother. Their previously unsteady steps became much more steady.

"Wow, Father has successfully found a new mother for the little dinosaur!" Xiao Haozhe jumped up excitedly, and Xiao Zhiwei and Xiao Zhiqing clapped their hands excitedly, their eyes fixed on this heartwarming scene.

The adult Maiasaura seemed to have completely accepted the three cubs. She carefully gathered the little ones together with her snout, then turned to look at Lin Lang and nodded slightly, as if to express her gratitude.

Lin Lang was also very pleased to see this.

Several deep "roars" came from the distant forest. The adult Maiasaura immediately tensed up, turned its head and responded with a low growl towards the source of the sound, its neck slightly tense and the muscles under its scales undulating slightly.

Startled by the calls of the kin, a small dinosaur shrank to the feet of an adult Maiasaura and made short, sharp "squeaks." The other two echoed it, their voices tinged with fear.

The adult Maiasaura gently nudged the most timid cub with its snout, letting out a low, gurgling whimper, like a gentle soothing murmur, and the little dinosaurs immediately quieted down.

Maiasaura were social animals, with groups typically consisting of dozens to hundreds of individuals, including adults, sub-adults, and juveniles. They would live, forage, and migrate together, and would also collectively defend against predators.

Therefore, the adult Maiasaura, with steady steps, led the three cubs slowly toward the tribe deep in the jungle. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting long, warm shadows on them.

The children watched the three baby maternal dragons disappear into the distance, their faces filled with reluctance yet also with relieved smiles.

Ma Yili gently put her arm around Xiao Zhiwei's shoulder and said softly, "With their new mother's care, the little dinosaurs will surely grow up healthy."

Zhou Mengyao said with a smile, "This journey through the Cretaceous period was truly worthwhile for the children, as they witnessed dinosaurs hatching."

Lin Lang raised his hand to brush away the lingering spiritual light from his fingertips, and looking at the children's reluctant expressions as they left the little dinosaur, his eyes were full of doting: "My darlings, how about we go see more kinds of dinosaurs next?"

"Father knows about a cliff ahead where a group of pterosaurs live. The sight of them spreading their wings and flying is far more spectacular than in the pictures."

"We want to go! We want to go!" The little ones cheered immediately. Their previous reluctance was instantly replaced by new anticipation. They tugged at Lin Lang's clothes and couldn't wait to walk towards the cliff.

Sunlight bathed the earth, and the laughter of children echoed through the jungle, along with the faint roar of pterosaurs in the distance.

Lin Lang entertained the children by showing them the dinosaurs from the Cretaceous period, and they played with them for the entire afternoon.

As evening fell and the children grew tired and hungry, Lin Lang used the [Space-Time Mass Teleportation] skill to bring his children and wives back to the Lin family villa.

The once quiet first-floor villa lobby instantly became lively with the return of the little ones.

Han Zaiyin, holding her second daughter Lin Zhinuan in her arms, stepped forward and looked at her eldest daughter Lin Zhiruo, saying, "Ruo'er, where did your father take you to play?"

Xiao Zhiruo replied with an exaggerated expression, "Father took us to the Cretaceous period to see dinosaurs, and we even saw baby dinosaurs hatching! It was so much fun!"

As soon as Lin Lang returned to the Lin residence, he saw the one-and-a-half-year-old Zhi Nuan being held in Han Zaiyin's arms. Her adorable little face was incredibly cute.

She wore a fluffy pink princess dress with tiny white flowers embroidered on the hem. Her slender arms, like lotus roots, were exposed, and her skin was as white as cream, with a healthy blush.

On her soft, chubby face, a pair of round, bright eyes looked like water-soaked black grapes. Her long eyelashes trembled gently like little fans. Her small, pert nose was perky, and her pink lips were pursed. Occasionally, she would utter an off-key syllable, making her so adorable that it was impossible to look away.

Perhaps sensing a familiar presence, Xiao Zhinuan, who was playing with the buttons on Han Zaiyin's clothes, suddenly turned her head and her gaze fell directly on Lin Lang.

Those clear, big eyes lit up instantly, as if they had found their most reliable haven. She waved her chubby little arms, kicked her little legs clad in pink socks, and uttered a soft, clear baby voice: "Father... Father Emperor!"

The little guy's voice was as sweet as honey, instantly captivating Lin Lang's heart.

Because it involved crossing timelines, Lin Lang's heart almost melted when he first met Han Jae-in's second daughter.

He could no longer suppress the tenderness in his heart, and quickly stepped forward, his voice incredibly gentle: "Nuan'er, my little darling!"

As he spoke, Lin Lang carefully took Xiao Zhi Nuan from Han Zai Yin's arms, afraid that he might hurt the delicate little one if he used too much force.

It felt heavy and soft to the touch; holding it was like holding a warm cloud. The faint scent of milk lingered in the air, instantly dispelling all of Lin Lang's fatigue.

Lin Lang lowered his head and kissed Xiao Zhinuan's smooth little face. The touch was incredibly delicate, and he couldn't help but place a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Xiao Zhi Nuan giggled as she was kissed, rubbing her little head against Lin Lang's chest, clutching his shirt tightly with her little hands, burying her face in his neck, and making satisfied "mmm" sounds.

"Nuan'er, have you missed your father?"

Lin Lang held Xiao Zhi Nuan and gently rocked her, his fingertips softly stroking her hair. His eyes were full of unwavering doting and tenderness. Looking down at the little one in his arms, so dependent on him, the smile on his lips never stopped.

Xiao Zhi Nuan seemed to understand but not quite. She looked up at him, grinned, revealing a few newly sprouted white teeth, and replied softly, "Yes~"

Xiao Zhi Nuan's answer completely filled Lin Lang's heart. He felt that at this moment, he could never love the little baby in his arms enough.

Han Zaiyin stood to the side, raised her hand and gently stroked Xiao Zhinuan's pink cheek, saying with a tender smile, "Nuan'er is so well-behaved! She eats well, sleeps well, and doesn't make a fuss at all. She's very easy to take care of."

Lin Lang rubbed his forehead against Xiao Zhi Nuan's forehead and said affectionately, "Our Nuan'er is a little baby who came to repay a debt of gratitude. How can you be so cute?"

Xiao Zhi Nuan giggled shyly, her little hands wrapped around Lin Lang's neck as if she were holding onto a lifetime of wealth and honor.

At this time, Xiao Zhinuan was unaware that because she was born into a wealthy family, she was like a lucky girl in a fairy tale, truly a rich young lady born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome.

But being born into the right family is a skill; some people are born into privilege.
