Chapter 704: Difficult Birth
Du Sanniang blew the whistle three times, and everyone waited for two minutes, but there was no movement anywhere.
"Master, does this whistle work?" Xiao Wu asked.
"There should be." Du Sanniang said with some uncertainty, "I made an appointment with their king at the beginning, and if something happens in the future, I will use this as a contact signal." I tried it twice later and it worked. ”
"But you've been blowing for so long, and there's still no movement, will they not be here anymore?" Beigong Tang asked.
"It's not for sure. I've been getting along well with them for more than ten years, and I hope they don't have any accidents. I'll try again. Du Sanniang said worriedly.
With that, she blew her whistle again.
"There's movement." Sima Youyue said as he looked at the calm lake.
As soon as she finished speaking, a small head by the lake came out, looked around carefully, and saw Du Sanniang on the shore, and the little brain was all rushed out of the water.
"It's Sanniang here!" The small body was all out of the water, and it turned out to be a round silkworm. When the spirit silkworm saw Du Sanniang, she pounced at once.
"Chubby, how did you get to the lake? What about the others? Du Sanniang stretched out her hand to catch Xiaopang and asked.
"Sanniang, Sanniang."
"Sanniang, we're here!"
"Sanniang is here!"
One by one, the spirit silkworms came out of the water, and for a while, the lake was densely covered with spirit silkworms.
"So many spirit silkworms!"
Everyone was amazed to see so many spirit silkworms.
"Xiaoxin Xiaobai, why did you all go to the lake?" Sanniang asked.
"Sanniang, there have been a lot of people in the forest recently, and many neighbors have been arrested or killed, and the king said that we should go into the bottom of the lake and hide. Fortunately, we hid in time, and there were many people behind us, which scared us to death. Xiaopang turned around twice in Du Sanniang's hand and said.
"What about your king?" Sima Youming asked.
"The king is still in the water. Wang recently became pregnant with another baby and is now in labor. Xiaopang said, "The king said that the spirit fetus conceived this time will give birth to a very powerful baby!" ”
"How can these silkworms still live in the water?" Qu Fatzi asked Sima Youyue puzzled.
"What is this place?" Sima Youyue glanced at him.
"Dark Forest?"
"Where is the Dark Forest?"
"Into the Ancient Continent."
"Then in the Chenggu Continent, what is so strange about having spirit silkworms that can live in the water? Worth all the fuss you make? ”
"Yes." Qu Fatzi touched his head, "Serial silkworms can live in the land of poisonous barriers, and it is indeed not unusual for this spirit silkworm to live in water." ”
"Oh no! Oh no! A small humanoid figure came out of the water and shouted.
"What's wrong?"
"The king, the king, she can't give birth! I'm running out of spiritual power, and I'm almost dead now! The little man said anxiously.
"What!" The spirit silkworms in the water and the people on the shore all screamed, and the spirit silkworms all wanted to sink down to take a look, but they were stopped by a force.
"The king can't stand so many of you going to see her now." A one-foot-tall white-bearded figure came out of the water, and she was the one who stopped everyone just now.
"Grandpa Sun, how is Ruoli's situation?"
"It's bad." The white-bearded old man waved his sleeves, and the silkworms flew out of the water and landed steadily on the shore.
"Old Sun, if you ...... away from her," Du Sanniang was worried, "Can you let me see her situation?" ”
"The king cannot move in the water now, nor can you stay long in the water. It won't help to go down. Elder Sun said to her, then turned his head to the other spirit silkworms and ordered, "Hurry up and go to the forest to find everything that can improve your spiritual power or continue your life!" Just go! ”
Sima Youyue looked at Du Sanniang very anxious, and said, "Sanniang, I am an alchemist, and I can stay in the water for a long time, let me go down and take a look." ”
Sun Lao and the other spirit silkworms looked at it at the same time, and Du Sanniang excitedly grabbed Sima Youyue's hand and said, "Yes, you are an alchemist, maybe there will be a way." Old Sun, let her go down and show Ruoli. ”
"She?" Sun Lao looked at Sima Youyue suspiciously.
"She's my nephew, let her go and see if she might be able to save Ruoli." Du Sanniang said. "Old Sun, you don't have any other way, do you?"
"I'm going too." Xiao Qi grabbed Sima Youyue's hand and emphasized his presence.
Sun Lao hesitated, nodded and said, "You come with me." ”
Sun Lao returned to the water, and Sima Youyue took Xiao Qi down. One has eaten water beads, and the other doesn't know what species it is, and it doesn't affect either of them much underwater anyway.
Sima Youyue followed Sun Lao downstream for a long time, originally thinking that it was just a small lake in the forest, but there was a cave below, which was ridiculously big.
Sun Lao took them to the bottom of the lake, on a high platform, a huge spirit silkworm was lying on it, its abdomen was high and bulging, because of dystocia, the whole person seemed weak, floating on it with the water waves.
"Old Sun. But got something good? A little girl more than a foot tall said.
"Not yet. This Sanniang's nephew, said that he was an alchemist, came to show the king. Sun Lao said.
As soon as they heard that it was Sanniang's nephew, everyone's resistance was not so great, so they let go of a gap and let Sima Youyue show Ruoli.
Sima Youyue swam over, reached out and touched the excessively bulging belly, Ruoli seemed to feel something, and opened his eyes slightly.
"Wang, I'll check it for you." Sima Youyue injected a trace of spiritual power into Ruoli's stomach, and the spiritual power first swirled around her stomach, and then swam around her body.
"How? Is there a way? Sun Lao asked anxiously.
"According to the time of your spirit silkworm, this king has not yet reached the time of labor, right? How could it be produced in advance? Sima Youyue asked.
"It's because of human injuries that it will be advanced." Ruoli said a little person beside him.
"Is there anything you can do?"
"There is a way, but I'm afraid you can't accept it." Sima Youyue said.
"What's the solution?" Sun Lao asked.
"Contract."
"Contract?" Hearing Sima Youyue's words, everyone present shouted.
"How is that possible!"
"No, absolutely not."
Before she could say the reason, the silkworms all raised objections.
How can their king make a contract with man and become a contract beast of man!
Sima Youyue was not in a hurry, she took out a pill for Ruoli to eat, and when she saw that her constantly losing vitality stopped, she turned to Sun Lao and the others and said, "You only have less than a day to think about this matter." ”
"Time for a day?"
"That's right." Sima Youyue said, "Her vitality is constantly draining, not only because of production, but also because of it." ”
She pointed to the bulge, and the meaning was self-evident.
