Chapter 7: The Majestic Valley (1)
The sun rises over the sea, dolphins jump and float in the sea, and seagulls sing for a long time, kicking off another unknown and new day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Man'er woke up from the hotbed by the sea, and the sea gently caressed Man'er's body in waves, and the pale blue fishtail shone with a brilliant colorful light.
She had spent nearly fifteen days and nights in the depths of the sea since she was last separated from that Protoss girl. Man'er rubbed her sleepy eyes, and she found that she was lying on a very strange seashore.
The sky was exceptionally blue, the sun was so bright that people squinted, the sea breeze slowly blew around Man'er's body, and her hair flowed up, and then slowly sank in a moment. The beautiful fishtail quickly became dry in the sun, like a transformed butterfly, gradually transformed into slender and white legs, and Man'er couldn't wait to stand up and look blankly at this strange and quiet seashore.
"This must be the Healer, right?" Man'er muttered to herself, carefully surveying her surroundings, except for the woods and the beach, she was alone.
But the mermaid's instincts told her that she was getting closer to her brother. At the thought of being able to see her brother, who was thinking about her day and night, she began to cheer, and all the tiredness was swept away.
Man'er quickly checked the map, food, clothes, and shoes she had brought with her, and luckily they were all properly stored in the five-colored shells given by Grandma Mussel.
On the map, Man'er roughly estimated where she was, and after thinking for a while, she decided to swim east along the seaside.
Once in the sea, she can clearly discern the direction, like an arrow from a string, and reach any place she wants to go as fast as possible. For Man'er, swimming freely with the tail of a fish is far easier than walking on the mermaid's legs.
Second, for Man'er, a spirit race from an exotic land, no matter where she is, she doesn't want to be the focus of everyone's attention. Rather than being spotted by the Loylians and causing some unnecessary trouble, it is much cleaner and safer in the water.
Having made up her mind, Man'er swam east along the coastline. That was until she discovered the majestic ravine that had been marked on the map and led all the way to the Sacred Capital.
It is worth mentioning that in order to enter the mouth of the majestic valley, you must pass through a waterfall with a strong current. The deep pool under the waterfall is still very deep, but the river that winds forward is very narrow, sandwiched between the towering cliffs, and rushes out.
The green shade was lonely, the horses' hooves clattered between the mountain dirt, the wooden wheels of the sedan chair creaked across the narrow mountain road, and the brown and red horse leading the sedan chariot kept snorting in front of it.
"Little Lord, ahead...... Seems like there's no way ahead? The maid of the royal horse said with a weeping voice.
The sedan curtain was suddenly lifted, and a protoss girl with skin like snow and a beautiful appearance poked her head out in panic and anxiety, "How did you come to this road?" ”
The maid had tears in her eyes and whispered: "Little master, the slave and maid have not come out for a long time, I am afraid that I have chosen the wrong path in a panic." ”
The Protoss girl had no intention of blaming, she looked behind her nervously, and as far as her eye could see, she could already see several galloping horses.
She suddenly felt her heart beat faster and her hands and feet tingle, "Right now, we're just going our separate ways." ”
After that, she lifted the dark red pomegranate fairy skirt and got off the sedan chair a little awkwardly.
The maid looked worried, and admonished: "Little master, you are now a person with a body, so you must be more careful." ”
She suppressed her tears for a long time, and finally shed them, and said apologetically: "I'm afraid that today's encounter is going to implicate you, whether it is success or failure, my sister will owe you after all." ”
The maid was also uncontrollable sad in her heart, and said with tears in her eyes: "Little master, the slave can only help you get here...... The slave and the maid drive the carriage to that side, and you go along this dense forest, mark it carefully, and do not get lost in the forest. The maid said as she handed her a small burden.
The mountains are high and the forests are thick, and the dense green is reflected in front of you, and there is obviously no way out here.
She subconsciously protected her high bulging abdomen, bit her teeth, and still bent down into the jagged forest sea.
She looked and walked around the dense forest worriedly, and she had no idea what to do, and all she had to do now was run away exhausted.
Her breathing became heavier and faster, and her forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and she breathed as deeply as she could, controlling her legs not to tremble, and her white boots quickly navigated the overgrown forest.
The sound of footsteps from the forest also aroused Man'er's alarm, and her figure flashed, deliberately hiding herself.
I saw that the girl of the Protoss with the red dress was hurrying to this side, her abdomen was high and bulging, as if she was a woman with six armors.
Seeing her worried appearance, she couldn't help but arouse Man'er's curiosity and worry.
She staggered through the woods for about a stick of incense, and was already sweating, her sweat-soaked hair sticking to her cheeks in a mess, and suddenly, she paused, panting and clutching her bulging belly, her eyes filled with tears.
The noisy sound of water in her ears smashed down the deep pool, just like her current heartbeat, and suddenly opened up in front of her, and it was already a hundred-foot high waterfall cliff.
The Protoss girl's eyes were misty with tears, and she looked blankly at the blue sky, how good it would be if she became a bird.
At this moment, the chaotic sound of horses' hooves slowly stepped out from the dense forest from far and near.
The Protoss girl's face suddenly turned pale, her fingers clutched the skirt of her abdomen, and she glared angrily at the visitor.
The man at the head was the first to rein in the reins of his horse, and the strong, tall black steed under his crotch neighed.
The man was dressed in a luxurious ink robe, with a blue-gold belt around his waist, and he rode on a horse arrogantly and indifferently, his cold purple eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze seemed to be burned with fire.
His voice was unusually cold, and he asked angrily, "Where are you going to run with my child?" ”
His face is as angular as an ink painting, and his eyes are like polished amethysts, deep and bottomless.
Man'er, who was hidden in the forest, looked in a daze for a while, and even forgot to breathe, there are such arrogant, cold, noble and pampered people in this world.
The anger disappeared like a bubble in her eyes, and the Protoss girl was a little dazed, all the hopes in her heart seemed to disappear in an instant, and she muttered to herself, "You won't let me go after all." ”
Seeing the girl's frightened and haggard countenance, Os's heart tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "After the child is born, I will give you freedom, why rush for a while? ”
The Protoss girl bit her lower lip tightly and pleaded, "If you agree to my request, I promise not ......to go anywhere."
He interrupted her impatiently, "I understand your intentions, but there are many rules in the royal family, and I can't protect you thoroughly." ”
She sneered, her words full of sarcasm, "In the realm of Loilai, what else can't you do?" ”
He pursed his lips, his face cold and expressionless, "I don't want to put him in danger because of you. When the child is born, there will be a nurse to nurse it, and countless maids will take care of it, so you can rest assured. ”
She stroked her high bulging abdomen with her hand and said heartily, "We haven't really met yet...... But he has already given me the joy of being a first-time mother in my body, and every time I think about it, I am ...... My young child is about to leave my arms...... In my heart, there is infinite reluctance in my heart...... The more time went on, the more scared I became, a sign that he was about to leave me......"
His gaze was still indifferent, and he said without any emotion: "Avdo, we are not from the same world in the first place, even if you do your best...... The result is the same, put away your selfish thoughts. ”
With tears on her face, she suddenly shouted hysterically, "Am I selfish? As a mother, I don't want to be separated from my children, is it my selfishness? ”
She stared at him plaintively, "No matter what purpose I had...... It's all about my child, my child, he's the most innocent, he can't be born...... And he left his mother's arms. She lowered her eyebrows and looked sad, "I never dared to imagine how the days without children would make me uncomfortable......
His expression was as cold as ice for a moment, "I don't have the intention to talk to you too much, after the child is born, you can still return to live in the Fairy Spirit Mountain Range." ”
Tears welled up her cheeks, and her pot-bellied body fell to her knees with a "poof", "...... I beg you, don't separate me from my child...... I don't care if you let me do anything, I don't care if I am given a name or not, I just ask you to let the child stay with me. ”
Her cry was mixed with the noise of the waterfall, but it was loud, "Even if what you want to give me is a great shame, now for me, it is nothing, I just want the child in my womb, I just want him to be with him forever!" ”
Her heartfelt words also disturbed Man'er's heart, I don't really care about the original situation, but deep in my heart, I pity the mother in front of me.
The man jumped off his horse, walked in front of her in a few steps, and looked at her kneeling on the ground, but he never meant to help her, "Since ancient times, it is better to mourn than to die, and it is better for you to die than to mourn." ”
