Chapter 14
In the blink of an eye, winter turns to spring, Xuan Qing has no other troubles, except for this bulky body that is worrying.Originally, I wanted to find a coachman to take me back to the building when the weather was warmer, but my body was not flat, and it was uncomfortable on flat ground, not to mention the bumps in the car.
Xuan Qing tried it once, but in the end he couldn't travel half a mile by hiring a car, so he couldn't help but ran out of the car and vomited. After that, he couldn't exert himself for three consecutive days and had to lie in the house for three days .With this lesson in mind, not only did Xuan Qing learn the lesson and dare not commit the crime again, but even the servants of the Wei Mansion were startled and advised him to return to the building later, at this time his body is the most important thing.
After procrastinating like this, Xuan Qing never got better, those sickness-like symptoms continued, and his stomach kept getting bigger, but fortunately, the last time the servants of the Wei Mansion saw Xuan Qing, he was even fatter than now , so no one was surprised to see his belly.
As time passed day by day, Xuan Qing became a little flustered. Firstly, he was afraid to speak out about his strange illness, and secondly, it was a problem of symptoms. Only he knew that this stomach really seemed to be like a pregnant woman. He could even feel something moving inside him sometimes...
Could it be that she was really pregnant like a woman?If it is true, it is too unbelievable!
Amidst the anxiety, Xuanqing counted the time and felt that he should not stay in the Wei Manor to add to the chaos, and finally decided to return to the building before midsummer arrived.However, because he was still feeling unwell, he simply gave up the idea of hiring a car, and thought about walking for a while, and then went to the next town to find another way.
Uncle Zhong was also benevolent and righteous. Since Xuan Qing insisted on leaving, he couldn't persuade him to stay again, so at the beginning of May, Xuan Qing embarked on the journey again with a simple burden on his back.
A person's journey is not as lonely as imagined, and the weather is not very hot. It is also interesting to walk slowly and enjoy the wild scenery along the way.
On the first day, Lu Xuanqing walked very slowly, and it was already dark after entering the forest. He randomly found a relatively clean place to settle down, ate the dry food he had prepared, and had a good night's sleep.But the next morning, when he woke up, he opened his eyes and looked up at the sky. The blue sky and white clouds of yesterday were no longer there, replaced by hazy clouds.
This was not what Xuan Qing wanted to see. He had a bad idea, so he hurriedly got up and tidied up and continued on his way. At this time, he was not so much rushing as he was trying to find a shelter before the heavy rain fell.
I heard Aluo say before that this town has a pleasant spring and summer climate, the only downside is that it is rainy in summer, and now it seems to be true, Xuan Qing thought as he walked.
Fortunately, his luck was not bad. When the sky started to rain lightly, a deep cave finally appeared in front of his eyes.Xuan Qing hurriedly hid in, and after a while, the rain outside was getting heavier, and soon it was falling with a bang, accompanied by thunder, which was really scary.
"Huh... Fortunately, fortunately." Xuan Qing patted his chest, and then began to check the cave.
Naturally, the cave is no different from a residential house. There are a lot of moss and silt between the rock walls on the ground, and some dry grass and dead branches are scattered on the ground. Xuan Qing collected them, walked into the cave and lit a small fire.
At this time, it was raining heavily outside, puddles formed on the ground, and some rainwater also splashed to the entrance of the cave. Xuan Qing was afraid that he would catch cold and delay the trip, so he kept warm with a small fire.
Originally Xuan Qing was sitting in the cave leaning on the fire, looking at the rain scene outside the cave, suddenly he glanced out of the corner of his eye, and seemed to see a black shadow flashing by in an instant.
what is that?Could it be a beast? ?
Xuan Qing was startled, got up on tiptoe, and quietly approached the entrance of the cave to see what happened.When he came to the entrance of the cave, he looked around and saw no traces of wild beasts. He felt relieved a little, then poked his head out to look outside the entrance of the cave, but still saw no living things, so he was completely relieved. He let out a long sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, turned around and wanted to go into the cave.
But just a few steps away, the ground was muddy and slippery, Xuan Qing accidentally slipped on his feet, and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Ugh...it hurts!"
It's okay to fall like this on weekdays, at most it's just some skin trauma, but now that his body is heavy, Xuan Qing was completely stunned by the fall, and just when he didn't know how to react, his stomach was tossing again at this moment.
"Hmm... what's going on?"
Rubbing his stomach, Xuan Qing couldn't stand up. The pain in his lower limbs after the fall and the burst of stimulation in his stomach made his legs weak. In desperation, he could only slowly kneel on the ground and crawl to the fire in the cave.
I thought it would be better after a while of rest, but I didn't expect that the pain in my stomach not only didn't ease, but intensified. This kind of gradual pain seems very familiar, and I seem to have experienced it before... But at this moment, Xuan Qing has no energy left to think about it.
He struggled to sit on the stone wall in the cave, took a deep breath to relieve the pain, but this time it was obviously different from the past, not only the labor pain hit, but also something seemed to be sinking in his belly, this strange pain made Xuan Cleared of fear, I couldn't help sweating.
"Uh...uh..."
Unable to bear the pain, Xuan Qing groaned, he tentatively touched his lower body, he thought it was just because his trousers got wet when he fell, but unexpectedly the fact was much more serious than imagined.
For some reason, the pants on his lower body were soaked. The water stains came from the back hole and flowed out of his body. I don't know what it was.
Xuan Qing was terrified, and in pain, he tore apart his baggage, and randomly took out a few pieces of clothes, some of which were spread under his body, and others were used to wipe the liquid that flowed out from under his body.
In this wilderness, it was raining heavily outside, and the cave was inaccessible. Xuan Qing gritted his teeth and took off his drenched pants, trying to change his posture to feel better, but his stomach was swollen and his lower body was swollen and painful. Whether it is lying on the stomach or lying down, it cannot be relieved.
His breathing gradually became heavy, his vision gradually blurred, the world around him seemed to disappear, and he seemed to be the only one left in the vast world.
"Ah...it hurts..."
Xuan Qing struggled in a daze, kicked his legs slowly and helplessly, his fingers turned white, and he tightly grasped the clothes under his body. It was as if it had been chopped off, and the pain continued.
"Ah... ah... um..."
In times of crisis, Xuan Qing was so fragile that he wanted to call for help, but he finally swallowed the name when it came to his lips. The last sliver of rationality left him unable to yell out. Said that that person has nothing to do with him.
At this moment, there was another toss in the stomach, Xuan Qing clearly felt that something was moving inside, it was also struggling, struggling and clamoring to get out of Xuan Qing's stomach!
"Uh, what... is there a... thing?"
Xuan Qing touched his stomach with one hand, and could clearly feel that there was indeed something inside...
At this time, Xuan Qing didn't have time to think about what it was. The instinct of his body told him that as long as he got through this test and got the stuff out of his stomach, his pain would be relieved.
So he changed his posture unconsciously, stretched his legs, and instinctively squeezed the thing under him with all his strength.It went smoothly at first, but when the thing slowly entered the "orbit", the pain that seemed to be torn apart still made Xuan Qing scream out.
"what!"
For a moment, tears blurred his vision, and Xuan Qing's whole body was soaked in sweat. He smelled a strong smell of blood coming from his lower body.
The feeling of splitting pain occupied the whole body. Xuan Qing didn't know what he should do or what to do in the future. The hole has been opened, and an unknown little life is slowly carrying out its initial journey.
I don't know how long it has passed, and I can't tell whether it's day or night. Xuan Qing half-opened his eyes, his consciousness was half-dream and half-awake. He kept crying and sweating, lying naked in the cave with his lower body open, looking very embarrassed, whimpering and moaning mixed together. Together, it can be described as extremely miserable.
In the midst of hardship, he also fantasized about someone coming to rescue him, but wave after wave of labor pains hit him, telling him that fantasies are always fantasies.No one knows that there is Xuan Qing here, and no one will care about his life or death, let alone rush to rescue him specially. Xuan Qing has no one to rely on, even if he dies!
Thinking of this answer, in the extreme pain, Xuan Qing actually showed a smile, although it was only for a moment, but he really smiled.
In fact, he really didn't want much, but even so, God was still stingy and refused to give him a little. At this critical moment of life and death, he could see through it.
There was no time to blame God for being ruthless, Xuan Qing just stood up and gritted his teeth unwillingly, and put all his remaining strength into pushing his lower body.
If these are all arranged by the heavens, then just come here. Xuan Qing doesn't know how to feel sorry for himself, even if he feels inferior, he won't fall down because of it. I just don't want to die here, in this meaningless place!
At this time, there was a roar outside the cave, and a bolt of lightning pierced the sky. Xuan Qing exerted his last strength, and after struggling for two hours, finally expelled the "foreign body" in his body.
At that moment, the load on his body was released immediately, Xuan Qing lost his strength all over his body, and he fell softly on the ground, short of breath, looking down vaguely, but couldn't see things clearly, in desperation, he slowly Slowly moving his hand between his legs, he touched the thing he just gave birth to.
That thing was still wet, slippery and small, but it did have warmth, it was warm, and even he had a heartbeat and pulse, every movement, Xuan Qing could feel that he was a living thing.
"Uh...uh...cough cough...wow...aah..."
Unexpectedly, due to Xuan Qing's touch, the thing made a small sound, and then cried out directly. Looking at Yuan, the scene made him startled again.
It's not a monster, nor an evildoer, it's... a newborn baby girl.
How is this going?
Xuan Qing supported her body tremblingly, but before she could think too much, the baby girl burst into tears again.
"How……"
Xuan Qing panicked and didn't know what to do. In desperation, he boldly bit off the umbilical cord and brought the baby girl over first.
Receiving the warmth of her body temperature, the baby girl stopped crying very quickly, her eyes were not yet opened, but her little hands were sticking to Xuan Qing's chest and swinging from time to time.
She came so suddenly and shocked, Xuan Qing hugged her and wrapped her in the existing clothes, and leaned against the rock wall. He wanted to think about it, but he didn't want his eyelids to be too heavy, and his body was too tired, so he just hugged the baby girl and passed out. Drowsily fell asleep.
◇ ◆ ◇
This sleep was very heavy, Xuan Qing dreamed about some past events, including those days with A Luo, and originally thought that this good dream would last longer, but the faint touch of reality still pulled him out of the dream ahead of time out.
When he opened his eyes, the rain had cleared outside the cave, as if it was the morning of the next day, and it was none other than the baby girl he held in his arms that woke him up.
After a night, the baby girl was obviously hungry, her small mouth was pressed against Xuan Qing's chest, and her small hands fiddled with Xuan Qing's clothes to find food. dissatisfied.
After a night of sleep, Xuan Qing's energy has recovered a lot. Although the lower body still hurts, it is still tolerable compared to the previous life that is worse than death.
He has never seen a woman give birth, and he never imagined that he would meet one day, so it can be said that he has no experience at all.Now the filth in the body has been removed, and the clothes under the body are already filthy, Xuan Qing has no one to help, so he has to clean it up himself.
He took out the only two remaining pieces of clothes from the bundle, changed one by himself, and wrapped the other for the baby girl. He managed to stand up, and limped around the clothes that were soiled yesterday. He got up and threw it away, and finally took the only dry food and coils left in the bag, and walked out of the cave slowly with the baby girl in his arms.
Seeing the first light of the sun, the little baby frowned unaccustomedly and snorted twice. Xuan Qing touched her, and then found some wild fruit dew. Let her lick her mouth.The child was quite obedient, as if smelling the sweetness of the wild fruit, he instinctively stuck out his tongue, and began to lick and suck the juice with his whole mouth.
Xuan Qing sat under the tree, just looking at the child, finally had time to think about the child's origin.
This should be... my child, right?After all, I gave birth to her...but how could I give birth to a child?Moreover, two people should have a child, one boy and one girl, so this child is me and...
Thinking of this, the little baby suddenly opened its eyes. It was a pair of big eyes with spirit, double eyelids, crystal clear and moist like grapes. Facing these familiar eyes, Xuan Qing thought of "October pregnancy" ".Counting back ten months now, he is in the Wei Mansion, but he has never had close contact with anyone, except that about nine months ago, A Luo hugged him when he was about to leave the mansion.
"You are so small...is it because you were born a month earlier?" Xuan Qing asked softly, touching the baby girl's tender cheeks.
Such a miraculous life, I am afraid that only he can touch it. So suddenly, just when he thought that the future was bleak, he suddenly became the father of a girl, and this child, let alone expecting it or not, even before she was born It's a... miracle that no one knows she exists.
"Oh……"
The baby girl yelled as if in response, which made Xuan Qing want to laugh even more, and a soft smile crept up to the corner of his mouth unconsciously, which was hard to suppress.
The initial emotion passed, and some things that I had to think about also surfaced, such as what to name the child, how to support him, and where to raise him in the future...
These questions made Xuan Qing have to think of A Luo, after all he was the child's other father.
"Xia Xia..." Xuan Qing looked at the little girl, then stared at the bracelet on his hand for a long while, and suddenly said.
Afterwards, he dug out a safety lock that he had brought out from Wei's mansion earlier, with "Xia Yu" engraved on it. He wanted to return it to A Luo, but he was too sad and forgot about it at that time. Use it.
A Luo's first daughter was born in spring, so A Luo called her "Spring". Now that the little girl happened to be born in summer, Xuan Qing continued to do this, although I don't know if A Luo would think about it. I want her, but I want it after all.
"This is for you. Your father bought it for you. May you have a safe and happy life."
Hang the safety lock around the child's neck, because it is a small one, so even a small baby will not feel heavy.
Looking at the child's face, Xuan Qing immediately thought a lot. Regarding the child's growth and the child's future, there are many things he can't do, and he can't even give the child a clean identity.He is from a humble family, so is his child, and he lives in a brothel. When the child grows up, he will either continue to live in the brothel or be sold as a slave. Xuan Qing does not want to see these things, so if he knows in advance that he will If there is a child, he will definitely not want it.
It's better to send her back to A Luo, even if A Luo doesn't like it, it shouldn't be so bad that she can't deny her existence, Xuan Qing guesses, in A Luo's house, the child's life will be much better, even if she is not favored , is the daughter of a concubine, but after all, she can be regarded as the young lady of the Wei family. She will marry an ordinary family in the future, and it is better to live a normal life than to roll around in the wind and dust.
There is nothing difficult for Xuan Qing to make this decision. The child has just been born and can't remember anything. What he has to do is to hand her over to A Luo as soon as possible. the future.
It turned out to be so good, but it's a pity that people's calculations are not as good as heaven's calculations. Just when Xuan Qing and his daughter were about to get up and leave, they suddenly saw the bushes move, and after a while, several figures with knives appeared from behind.
Xuan Qing was startled when he saw them, and they were also very surprised. The two sides looked at each other for a while, and only one of the group of people with knives reacted, and that person hurriedly shouted behind him: "Boss, people are here, find them!" Yes, found it!"
How is this going?
Just when Xuan Qing hadn't figured out the current situation, another group of people ran over there quickly, and the boss in the population was also among them, and when he stood in front of Xuan Qing, things changed unexpectedly .
"It's you!?" The two spoke almost simultaneously.
"Why did you come here?" Xuan Qing asked strangely.
The man scratched his head, put away the knife, and asked back in the same tone: "I should be the one who said that, right? Why are you still in this small town and forest? Didn't you get along with your family and go back to your hometown?"
The scar on the left cheek, the stern eyes, the arrogant tone, the domineering movements, the bandit leaders Zi Mo and Xuan Qing saw nothing different from last time, the arrogance is still the same.
He was also kind at first, although bandits hate high-ranking officials, they still have sympathy for ordinary people, and sometimes they act as righteous bandits, sending those who got lost in the mountains and forests back and so on. Yesterday Zimo heard that his subordinates came down to report that he was It seems that some people in the forest were trapped on the mountain because of the heavy rain, but that person was also anxious to avoid the rain at that time, so he didn't look closely, and he didn't remember the location until the heavy rain stopped today. Come to explore the forest to find people.
Xuan Qing didn't want to blame them for their good intentions. He just said that he was fine and hoped that they would leave quickly. It would be a big deal if the baby girl in his arms was found to be involved with A Luo.
But even though he concealed his emotions well, his appearance still couldn't escape Zi Mo's eyes. He saw Xuan Qing's face was pale, even his lips were bloodless, looking weak, and there was a baby in his arms, so naturally Feel suspicious.
"Where did this kid come from?" Zi Mo asked straightforwardly.
Xuan Qing paused in his heart, but still kept talking nonsense: "This is... my niece."
"Oh?" Zi Mo expressed disbelief, "Then your little niece is really very young, as if...was born yesterday."
"...!" Xuan Qing was secretly startled, but on the surface he tried to remain calm, not wanting to be discovered.
This action made Zimo feel even more weird. He suddenly remembered that just now someone found a pile of blood-stained clothes, which were still wrapped...Suddenly, an incredible idea came into his mind.
Maybe, maybe, Xuan Qing...
"Come on, take them back to the village!"
"Huh? You don't need to go back to the village, I..."
Xuan Qing wanted to refuse, but Zi Mo didn't give him this chance, so he ordered someone to take them back to the village without any reason.
The mountain village is far away, and the mountain road is rugged. Xuanqing walked slowly and was very tired. He insisted on following them with the child in his arms, but how could he tolerate such tossing just after giving birth, so naturally, he hadn't walked halfway yet. He passed out right under the eyes of everyone.
Fortunately, Zi Mo had the foresight to send people to watch him all the time, so he helped Xuan Qing and the baby in time, preventing them from falling.
That's how Xuan Qing and the little baby girl were carried into the village. Zimo handed over the baby to the care of some women who had just become mothers in the village, while Xuan Qing was arranged to rest in a separate room.
After that, Zimo put down the knife and went back to his bedroom, opened the door and walked in, then closed the door immediately. The room was dark, but he didn't mind. He went straight to the bed and saw the mess on the bed. The person showed a playful smile.
"An acquaintance came to the village today, do you know who it is?"
The person lying on the bed was bound by the iron chain on the head of the bed with one hand, and his whole body was naked, with ambiguous marks remaining on his neck, chest, etc. After hearing the words, he turned around silently and glanced at Zimo, without making any answer.
Knowing that he is such a proud person, he disdains to associate with gangsters, but the first time he saw him, Zimo couldn't restrain the restlessness in his body—this is the person he wants, even if it is the flower of Gaoling, he will Will climb up and fold him down and keep him by his side!
Licking the corner of his mouth, Zimo walked to the edge of the bed with a smile, took a strand of black hair from the man and kissed it on his mouth, even if he was ignored again, but now the ending could not be changed, he belonged to him, in this life, they will be entangled endlessly.
"Why be so ruthless, I swear that I will not let you down, isn't it much better than that boy who can't speak?"
As soon as this taboo topic was mentioned, the person on the bed suddenly got up, grabbed Zimo's veins with one hand, his eyes were cold, and threatened: "Shut up!"
It's like this every time, as long as that kid is mentioned, this person is always uncontrollable, even when the two of them had intimate contact for the first time, he still called Wei Chengluo's name!
Zimo was unwilling to reconcile, and his mouth was even sharper, "There is no need to deceive yourself, you also know that he has no intentions for you, otherwise it would not be my turn..."
"Despicable villain, what is there to be proud of if you succeed with obscene drugs!"
If he hadn't come to this stockade by accident when he searched for medicine before, how could he have fallen into the hands of this wolf again and again and let him be at his mercy.
"Yes, I'm a despicable person." Zi Mo didn't shy away, ignored the other party's threats, grabbed his jaw with the other hand, and kissed him.
The man was caught off guard by the kiss, and when he reacted, his first move was to fight back with his teeth, biting Zimo hard.Zimo stopped kissing in pain, and left the man, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.
"Tsk, it's really wild, Mingruo, are you a wild cat?" Zi Mo smiled instead, "But whether it's a domestic cat or a wild cat, I like both."
"Pervert!" Han Mingruo turned away, not wanting to see him again.
Seeing this, Zi Mo chuckled, he had his own way to make Han Mingruo look at him, so he walked aside and said nonchalantly: "I met an acquaintance today, I think you should recognize him, he is now "ridden by a strange disease", I thought I'm looking for you to heal and heal..."
At this point, he stopped and looked at Han Mingruo on the bed, and saw that he was still indifferent, Zimo's smile deepened, and he continued slowly without panic: "This man is very poor. There is a concubine status, and now I don't know how to do it, but he came to this wilderness... By the way, there is something even more strange, he is obviously a male concubine, but he did not know where he picked up a newborn concubine. His child came over, and he said it was his niece, but I looked like a father and daughter.”
"...!"
These words finally made Han Mingruo react. In fact, he had been secretly listening to the concubine's room in the Wei Mansion before, and when he heard the part about the child, he couldn't help but raised his body and looked at the concubine in astonishment. Zimo.
Seemingly understanding what he was astonished at, Zimo raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "Would you like to go and see him?"
Now and then, no matter how much resentment he has towards Zimo, Han Mingruo put aside his prejudices and replied: "Take me there, hurry up!"
"As ordered."
So when Han Mingruo changed into his clothes and took the medicine box, he couldn't wait to follow Zimo to Xuanqing's resting room.Entering the room, the first thing Han Mingruo did was to step forward to take Xuan Qing's pulse, carefully considering the pulse, his brows became more and more wrinkled.
"How is it?" Zi Mo asked, standing aside, "Is what I said true?"
Han Mingruo didn't answer, but looking at his tacit expression, Zimo knew that he had guessed right, "Ha, let me just say how could that Young Master Wei choose a male concubine who is not beautiful and has a sense of smell, that's how it is, that's how it is." It makes sense...Ming Ruo, you did a good job of hiding it!"
"I didn't hide it, it's just that you never asked about it." Han Mingruo replied lightly, taking out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box, pouring out a pill from inside and stuffing it into Xuan Qing's mouth for him to swallow. Then water was brought for him to swallow.
Seeing his relief, Zimo couldn't help laughing, Han Mingruo frowned and turned to look at him, "What's so funny?"
"Laughing at you, I searched desperately for the medicine for that kid surnamed Wei, and in the end I even paid for it. I didn't expect that kid to leave a way for me. No, the antidote is here."
Han Mingruo rolled his eyes at his words, looked at Xuan Qing's pale face, and suddenly said: "I think it was just an accident, otherwise A Luo would not have allowed him to give birth outside with his temperament."
"Hey!" Zimo snorted coldly without making any comments.
Han Mingruo knew that Zimo didn't like Ah Luo, and he didn't force him to accept it. He followed him to check Xuan Qing's body, and found that he was fine, except for the wound on his back acupoint due to childbirth, there was another very serious wound. eccentric……
"The fainting is only because the body is too weak after giving birth, and it will be cured after tonic, but..."
"Can?"
"...No, nothing."
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Zi Mo didn't force him to say anything, but said: "Okay, I will take care of him in my village. As for the baby girl can also drink goat's milk here, it shouldn't be a problem."
When he said that, Han Mingruo became suspicious, "Why are you so kind all of a sudden? That's the daughter of A Luo you hate."
Zi Mo raised his eyebrows, "The one who knows me is Mr. Han, and I didn't take care of them for no reason, because they are my important bargaining chips..."
"Bargaining chips?" Han Mingruo immediately had a bad feeling in his heart when he heard the words.
I saw Zimo grinned, and said as if joking: "Just as you have worked so hard to restrain the young master of the Wei family, I will do everything to get you." Zimo changed his tone, "Now that young master's "Xie "The medicine" and my daughter are here with me, if you want to take it back, shouldn't you pay some price? "
"you!"
"Don't think that I don't know, you came here to find a way to suppress the Ten Thousand Snake Gu, and you are more anxious than before. It must be that the Wei family's young master's illness has changed, which is why you are so anxious."
Every word of this statement is reasonable, and Han Mingruo cannot refute it.
The facts are indeed as he said, Arlo can't wait long!
Closing his eyes helplessly in pain, Han Mingruo asked, "What do you want?"
The trick succeeded, Zimo chuckled, held his cheeks, his tone was unspeakably gentle, "I've made it very clear what I want, in this life, I want you to be by my side forever."
Sure enough, Han Mingruo secretly smiled wryly. He actually didn't know why the bandit leader was so persistent with him, and it didn't seem to be the case when he said that he intentionally humiliated and abused him. Thinking about it, it might just be a whim, looking for a rare plaything.
But no matter what, the freshness will pass. At that time, I am afraid that he will regret it, saying that he will not know how many variables will exist in the future.
Han Mingruo had no time to think about those, so he shook his head and waved away his redundant thoughts. Now there is only one thing he can do for A Luo.
"I promise you."
