Time has become long and meaningless. The chain of my memory seems to have been locked. Many things have passed and passed without leaving any traces.
It has been almost half a year, right? What time of year is it outside the valley, what is the scene like, and has spring already arrived? They have all gradually faded away. Only the rustling sound of maple leaves being blown by the phoenix is left, which always lingers in my ears.
I added a couch to my bamboo house, and it was by the window. I could just see the gravel path in front of the door winding into the depths of the maple forest.
I have a big belly and am a little lazy. At this moment, I can no longer release my spiritual power, and I am no different from a mortal. Because of this, Cang Li always has to get some mortal food to fill my belly every day. Sometimes he will
I tried cooking some side dishes myself, but they were really bland and not to my taste.
Counting the days, I was afraid that I would have to give birth soon. This inevitably reminded me of the woman who had difficulty giving birth with Anian. I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but after thinking about it, I immediately felt relieved.
I was leaning on the couch and was lost in thought, when I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in." I kept my original posture, closed my eyes slightly, and said calmly.
The door opened, he walked in, put a bamboo basket on the table, and then walked towards me. Of course, I only heard all this.
"How was your day?"
He sat down next to me and put his hands around my shoulders naturally.
I opened my eyes slightly, but my expression was gone.
"Same as usual, but my body seems a little heavier."
"I went to inquire about it. The day should be approaching. You don't have to worry. I have arranged everything."
I closed my eyes again.
"Do you need me to find the father of the child?"
Suddenly, Cang Li's question surprised me.
I suddenly sobered up a lot, turned to look at him, thought for a moment, and then said, "No need. He doesn't know about this child."
"You really don't want to tell him?"
"Why disturb his life anymore? Now, he may have a new life."
I was a little disappointed because I suddenly thought of the last time I saw him.
"good."
Cang Li said nothing else.
"Quick, let's eat."
I followed his words, slowly sat up from the couch, then slowly walked to the table and sat down.
As usual, he sat down next to me and served me some food.
"You never mentioned him in detail. Do you love him?"
I brought the chopsticks to my mouth, but stopped.
"You never asked why it happened suddenly today?"
"It's nothing. It just occurred to me suddenly."
I put the food into my mouth again and chewed it carefully, but it brought out many memories that had been buried for a long time.
"Actually, I have looked for it."
"What are you looking for?"
"That mortal named Yunzhong."
I clenched my chopsticks tightly, unable to suppress the fluctuations in my heart.
"How do you know..."
He smiled slightly and said, "You were mumbling in your sleep, calling this name again and again."
"Why are you looking for him?" I frowned, a little annoyed.
"I don't know why. Maybe, I just want to take a look. Or maybe, it's because of something else."
After hearing this, I really couldn't control myself.
"Just a look? Yes, you are a god, and few people can stop you from what you want to do. But he is just a mortal! Your 'look', I don't know what it will bring to him! Just because of your
Are you curious for a moment? Because your nominal wife is pregnant with his child? What on earth do you want to do? What else do you want me to do? I have given up resistance and am letting you drive and manipulate me. I accept it.
But why do you still want to disturb innocent people? I beg you, let them go!"
I put the chopsticks heavily on the table, gasping for air, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Yinluo, don't get excited."
He held my hand and tried to calm me down.
But I took my hand out, picked up the chopsticks again, and started eating.
After taking two bites, I felt my stomach contract suddenly and I almost vomited out the food in my mouth.
"What's wrong?"
He also noticed something strange, so he quickly put his arm around my shoulders.
I adjusted my breathing, and after the pain of contraction passed, I said with a slight panic: "It seems, it seems, I'm about to give birth."
He stood up suddenly, snatched the chopsticks from my hand without any explanation, then picked me up and carried me to the bed.
I had no idea for the moment, so I just lay there numbly, feeling extremely panicked inside.
After a while, there was another contraction. I held my stomach and became even more nervous.
"Yinluo, I'm here to find Mrs. Wen who knows how to deliver babies. Please be patient first!"
Saying that, Cang Li rushed out of the door.
During his absence, I suffered several pains in succession. Later, it became more intense and lasted longer than before. Perhaps it was because I had no spiritual power at all, so the pain became more intense. I lay on the bed.
, the left and right sides are not comfortable at all.
Fortunately, Cang Li returned not long after, and with him was a middle-aged woman who was dragged by his arm.
The woman's face was filled with fear. It must have been that Cang Li used magic in front of her in desperation to scare her.
"Quick! Deliver her baby!"
The woman was so frightened that she didn't dare to move. Cang Li had no choice but to drag her directly in front of me. At this moment, I felt a sudden burst of heat between my legs. I suddenly thought of the woman who had difficulty giving birth.
Man, I quickly took a look, but luckily I didn’t see red.
But then a more intense pain hit me. I couldn't help but groan, and then I gasped for air, hoping that the pain would pass soon.
"This... this... the amniotic water has broken, and I am about to give birth!"
In pain, I was surprised, so fast?
The Wen woman gradually stopped being frightened and began to take care of me.
Wave after wave of pain hit me, I almost lost the ability to think, and everything around me became blurry. I only felt the severe pain spreading throughout my body and even my consciousness, spreading from my stomach over and over again, and I also
I couldn't help but gasp and shout loudly.
I don’t know how long I have been struggling. When I felt almost exhausted, I felt something swelled under my body. Then, gradually, I relaxed instantly. Then, there was a crisp baby cry.
I don't know when, Cang Li came to my side. His expression was really something I had never seen before. It was completely devoid of the usual indifference and majesty. He took a deep look at me, and then turned his gaze to
The little guy who was all red and wet was crying in the hands of Wen Po.
"Yes, he is a young master." When Na Wen Po saw him, she was obviously more frightened.
He stretched out his hand to catch the child. Wen Po was stunned for a moment, quickly wiped the child clean with a sheet, and then handed it to him carefully.
The moment he took the child, the little guy stopped crying. He held the child's neck and butt, held it in front of his eyes, and looked at it carefully.
But the next moment, I heard the Wen woman shouting in great surprise. I was startled and saw a pile of quilts she pulled out from nowhere and fell to the ground. Her face was full of horror, and I almost burst into tears.
"Monster! Monster!" she yelled, seemingly wanting to run out immediately, but she didn't dare to take action because Cang Li was standing in front of her.
I shifted my gaze, and then I discovered that on that tender skin, patches of snow-white feathers were sprouting bit by bit, and they were still glowing with a slight crystal light.
I originally wanted to get up, but I didn't have any extra strength, so I could only turn sideways, trying to see clearly what this little life that had just emerged from my body looked like.
At this time, Na Wenpo had already moved back to the door step by step. Seeing that she could finally open the door and escape, Cang Li looked at the child and said coldly:
"Thank you, but I'd better take you back, otherwise, you won't be able to get out of this forest."
The woman was stunned for a moment and could only stand by the door trembling.
Cang Li showed a very warm smile to the child, then carried him to the bed, carefully placed him next to me, then pulled the quilt that had just fallen to the ground and covered him.
"Yinluo, let me send her back first and then come back immediately."
I nodded, quickly turned around and put the little guy in my arms.
After a while, Cang Li came back. I also recovered a lot.
I sat up and wrapped the little guy in a quilt. He was moving in the quilt and looking at me with his round eyes.
However, Cang Li didn't give me too much chance, she had already picked up the child and started teasing him without any pretense of respecting the gods.
Looking at the scene in front of me, I felt a little sleepy, so I lay down and fell asleep unconsciously.
When I woke up, I felt that my body had changed. I adjusted my breath secretly and found that I could activate my spiritual power again, and the previous feeling of weakness was gone. So, I quickly got up from the bed, but I didn't see Cang Li.
Or that child.
Suddenly, I was a little anxious, so I opened the door eagerly, and saw Cang Li imagining a stone table and bench outside the door at some point. At this time, she was sitting on the stone bench with her child in her arms. The child seemed to be sensing
Hearing my voice, he immediately burst into tears. I quickly walked over and took him from Cang Li's arms.
"Yinluo, have you recovered?"
I nodded.
"This child does not need to be breastfed. He needs to be nourished with spiritual energy."
This made me a little surprised and puzzled.
"Although he has mortal blood, he is a demon."
"Demon?"
"Yes, his mother originally used the power of demon spirits as her source, so he is naturally a demon."
I thought carefully about what he said, but still couldn't figure out a way out.
Before I could think clearly, Cang Li waved his sleeves, and someone appeared beside him out of thin air.
This person looks like a girl, wearing a light red gauze skirt, with her hair pulled up in buns on both sides. She has a pretty face, but her temperament seems a bit too weak.
"From now on, let her take care of the child."
"she……"
"She is a fish demon. She just transformed into a human form in the forest a few days ago, so I gave her some spiritual power so that she can take care of you and the child."
"Madam." The girl bowed to me respectfully. Her tone of voice was so humble that it suddenly reminded me of someone.
I smiled at her and nodded in response.
"Have you chosen a name for the child?" Cang Li came to me, touched the child's cheek with her hand, and asked.
