Deep underground in a remote ruin, in a stone house of less than ten square meters.
Miao Qiuping, Uncle Fan and Lian Hesheng are still hiding here.
During this period, Uncle Fan secretly went out and contacted some of the Miao family's old cronies who were wandering around the market. However, because the time had not come for him to take action, he had no choice but to continue to endure.
Because of the death of his only son Lian Ankang, Lian Hesheng couldn't bear the blow caused by the rupture of his bloodline. He had been huddled in a corner in a daze for the past few days, feeling extremely depressed and lonely.
In this regard, Miao Qiuping and his wife did not try to resolve the matter. Their complicated grievances with each other made them confused about how to deal with this prisoner.
As usual, the three of them occupied a corner in the stone room, and not much movement was heard.
The lonely Lian Hesheng lay slumped in the corner, with a lot of spider silk hanging on his body. He didn't pay attention to it, and stared blankly at the ancestral monument that he had discarded in the corner;
Looking at the dust on the ancestral monument, he seemed to see his own colorless life in a trance, which made him confused and didn't know why he continued to live.
I don't know how long the dull atmosphere lasted.
Suddenly a faint light came from the dim temple monument.
Lian Hesheng's gloomy eyes suddenly brightened up, as if he sensed something shocking, he crawled to the ancestral monument and quickly wiped off the dust on it with both hands.
When he saw a faint line of blood spreading under the blood essence grid belonging to his son Lian Ankang, he suddenly burst out laughing like crazy, and his eyes filled with tears as he laughed.
This strange behavior immediately attracted the attention of Miao Qiuping and Uncle Fan. They came to Lian Hesheng warily and cast doubtful eyes on the ancestral monument in his hand.
Seeing the faint blood line that represented the arrival of new life, Miao Qiuping's face suddenly darkened, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart.
"The Lian family has an heir! The Lian family has an heir."
Lian Hesheng's excited voice kept coming out, and he seemed extremely excited, "God bless you, God bless you..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Miao Qiuping and the two of them. He changed his previous depression and loneliness and said angrily: "During the period before my son died, I only came into contact with a girl like Qiu Yun. Now that there is movement from the ancestral monument, it must be because of this."
She is pregnant with my son's flesh and blood, and is pregnant with my Lian family's child..."
"Fart!" Miao Qiuping angrily interrupted Lian Hesheng's words and shouted sternly: "How long has it been since that beast Lian Ankang defiled my sister? How could he react so quickly!"
Seeing that Lian Hesheng still wanted to speak, Miao Qiuping had a gloomy face and scolded sternly: "Even if it is as you said, this son is also a disaster. If it is not what my sister wants, I will not keep him!"
When Lian Hesheng heard that Miao Qiuping had no intention of having the child, he subconsciously felt a surge of anger. However, when he thought of the origin of the child, his anger immediately turned into guilt, and his dissatisfied expression changed to one of flattery and apology.
After coughing twice, Lian Hesheng stood up, smiled flatteringly at Miao Qiuping and complimented him in an extremely low and condescending manner: "Young Master Miao, what are you talking about? How could Mr. Miao have the heart to do such a cruel and inhumane thing with his kindhearted nature.
"
Miao Qiuping snorted coldly, his eyes becoming colder.
When Lian Hesheng saw this, he almost begged for mercy and said anxiously: "The child is innocent, innocent, Mr. Miao... No, Master Miao, as long as you don't hurt this child, my Lian family will do our best to help you in the future.
Take back the position of the head of the Miao family. If you have any grievances, feel that Quanzi has done something wrong, and want to take revenge, you can come at me, an old man, but don't be embarrassed and hurt innocent people."
Seeing Miao Qiuping, he was indifferent.
Lian Hesheng begged in frustration: "Miss Qiuyun is your biological sister after all, and her flesh and blood is also the blood of your Miao family. As long as you promise to keep this child, my Lian family will take care of it and never have any disputes with your Miao family.
I can obey you for anything."
Seeing that Miao Qiuping's complexion improved.
Lian Hesheng hurriedly said further: "We will pool the efforts of both families to raise this child. When he grows up, he will be the head of our family and will definitely become the most outstanding person in the history of Nangu Town."
Uncle Fan woke up dissatisfied and said: "Master Lian, are you confused? It's your Lian family who died, not my Miao family! My young master is in his prime, and he may have many children in the future. The son he will give birth to will be...
He will be the future head of my Miao family!"
Lian Hesheng's mouth twitched when he heard this, and his face turned gloomy again. When he woke up, he found that things seemed to be exactly as Uncle Fan said. The life in Miao Qiuyun's belly was very important to his Lian family, but it was not as important to Miao Qiuyun.
As far as the family is concerned, it is indeed dispensable and even a shameful existence.
this moment.
Lian Hesheng even looked at Miao Qiuping with a hint of murderous intent, thinking that if he killed the person in front of him, the Miao family would inevitably face a desperate situation, and the fetus in Miao Qiuyun's belly would truly become the only one in the family.
hope.
But then I thought about it, I couldn't do this at all in my current situation, and even if I could, considering the relationship between Miao Qiuyun and Miao Qiuping, if this matter spread, it would be even harder to save the fetus.
After much thought, Lian Hesheng had no choice but to compromise in frustration.
"Can you make a condition?" Lian Hesheng asked in a low voice like an old father seeking medical treatment for his son: "How can your Miao family tolerate this bloodline?"
When Miao Qiuping saw Lian Hesheng in this posture, the resentment in his heart was inexplicably lessened. He saw the latter's pain of losing his son and his indifference and decadence in the past few days. He knew the importance of this bloodline.
He also couldn't bear to cause harm in vain. The previous words were just his angry words, based on Lian Ankang's anger for hurting his own sister.
After calming down for a while.
Miao Qiuping said seriously: "Everything you say now is empty talk. If the head of the Lian family really wants to promise something, he can only restore the Lian family to its former glory. Otherwise, he is not qualified to negotiate any terms with me."
Lian Hesheng said firmly: "Our Lian family's remaining strength is not exhausted. Once the Jun family and other external forces leave on the ground, they will surely be able to turn over again and rebuild the past. You just need to set the conditions!"
Miao Qiuping waved his hand and said bluntly: "I will not put forward any conditions before meeting Ayun."
Lian Hesheng was stunned and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, our top priority is to figure out how to bring Miss Miao back safely. In this matter, the Lian family is willing to..."
Miao Qiuping interrupted: "What I said is more than that. Whether this bloodline can be tolerated depends on Ayun's attitude. If she is willing to accept it, there is no need for any conditions from the Lian family, and neither will our Miao family."
It's only half of the damage; on the other hand, if Ah Yun hates him, I will not keep him no matter what."
Lian Hesheng was happy at first when he heard the words, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, his heart felt cold again and full of panic.
now.
Among the Tianyu clan.
As the client, Miao Qiuyun was suddenly taken to a house.
inside the house.
There were only two people, Jiang Ruoyun and Tang Yuan.
This made her feel ashamed, and she was afraid to face the two of them.
Is it possible that because of his words, Ye Fan and Lu Feng have been executed?
When Tang Yuan and Jiang Ruoyun heard the movement at the door, they both looked at Miao Qiuyun. At one glance, their eyes couldn't help but fixate on Miao Qiuyun's bulging belly.
"What are you..." Jiang Ruoyun was confused.
Tang Yuan said abruptly: "What can you eat to make you feel so full?"
As he spoke, there was even a sentence in his heart about Miao Qiuyun eating alone. He had not even touched a drop of water since he came here.
Miao Qiuyun glared at Tang Yuan aggrievedly, and briefly told her own experience in vague words, covering up her choice to die.
Finally, he looked at the two of them curiously: "Have you seen that old woman?"
"Yes," Tang Yuan responded with some embarrassment. After learning the truth about Miao Qiuyun's bulging belly, he felt very regretful about what he had done with that damn joke, but he had better not hurt others because of it.
Jiang Ruoyun explained: "We have just been brought here, and we were just talking about being questioned and made things difficult for us."
Miao Qiuyun suppressed her panic and asked tentatively: "What about Brother Lu and Mr. Ye? Have you seen Miss Ruoshui? I heard the old woman call her 'Saint Girl?'"
Tang Yuan responded subconsciously: "Old Ye was taken to soak in the Pond of Rebirth. I didn't expect that the terrifying undead Gu would have such a nemesis here."
"He's not dead?" Miao Qiuyun was immediately happy.
Seeing the surprised looks from Tang and Yuan, he quickly changed his words with a guilty conscience: "Ah, I mean this is great, he won't die."
Tang Yuan glanced at Miao Qiuyun suspiciously, but did not take it seriously, and continued: "Old Lu is still writing a letter. It will take a while before he comes here."
Jiang Ruoyun's pretty face blushed slightly when she heard this. She already knew about Lu Feng's situation from the old woman's mouth. She couldn't help but look forward to what kind of heartfelt and sweet words the letter she would receive later would contain.
Tang Yuan continued: "We can survive this time because of Ruoshui's light. The ghost pavilion's shadow in the Five Elements pure water body is really not a lie. This kind of physique is really what their Tianyu clan has always known."
The saint."
Miao Qiuyun said aggrievedly: "If that's the case, then why did they lock us up and deliberately make things difficult for us for so long?"
Jiang Ruoyun said with relief: "They are probably afraid of our character and what kind of intentions we have towards Ruoshui; they will only allow us to stay alive after passing the test."
Tang Yuan agreed: "I guess it may be related to the fact that their former saint was abducted by outsiders. If we don't ask clearly and get to the bottom of it, they won't be able to keep us at ease."
When Miao Qiuyun heard this, she couldn't help but feel less resentful.
"Have you seen Miss Ruoshui?"
"How is she doing now? Has the poison in her body been cured?"
"Did the Tianyu Clan say they would let us go?"
The first two sentences are out of polite worries, while the latter sentence comes from the heart.
Perhaps because she was about to become a mother, Miao Qiuyun unknowingly felt that she seemed to be becoming more precious about her life.
When Tang Yuan heard the word 'leave', his face suddenly became heavy.
Given the current situation, the Tianyu Clan might not make things difficult for them, nor would they interfere with their whereabouts;
But if it's water, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave.
