Chapter 20 Sprouts After the Rain
The wind can't be contained, who cherishes the cold and the sand flying. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The cold wind of the desert howled outside the cave, and many tenacious cold winds penetrated through the cracks in the door, so that the cave where the fire was lit did not feel the slightest temperature. At this time, the woman was like a frightened animal, huddled in the corner and shivering.
"Girl, are you alright?" Broken Branch felt her strangeness and looked down at her, and he saw the horror in the woman's eyes.
The woman's face became more and more ugly, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from her forehead. Suddenly, the woman reached out and stroked her stomach, screaming in pain.
"Kid... The child is coming out!" the woman cried out.
Broken Branch was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't know whether he was excited or anxious on his face, and hurriedly helped the woman to the tiger skin cushion.
What should I do next? Broken Branch looked at the rain buds that were still rolling and struggling, and they were at a loss.
Kuroko had a wife before! He must have known what to do. Broken Branch walked to the entrance of the cave and shouted, "Kuroko, come back the fuck!" and whistled a few more times.
But there was no echo in the silent desert, and the broken branch hurried into the hole and turned over the cabinet, knotted a long leopard's tail, and came out of the hole to call the horse, and pinned the leopard's tail to the saddle. The broken branch whipped as hard as he could, and the healthy horse neighed and ran towards Pegasus.
This leopard order is the most urgent order to break the branch, once it is issued, it means that there is the most urgent situation, and the sunspot and his party will naturally rush over when they see the galloping horse with the order.
The situation on the woman's side seemed to be not good, she had almost fainted in pain, her mouth wide open but she couldn't make a sound.
Broken Branch knelt in front of the woman, "Rain girl, listen to me, this birth is probably the same... Just with... Eh, this is a reason, sometimes, you have to use some strength, and you have to use skill, but sometimes you don't use your strength, you have to relax, oops, anyway, just give birth quickly!"
Broken Branch didn't know what he was talking nonsense, so he couldn't make it anymore, so he only stretched out his hand and held the woman's hand tightly.
The woman turned her head, her face unrelieved by the pain, as if she wanted to say something. Broken Branch stepped forward, and the woman whispered, "Quick... Help me take off my pants and then you get out!"
Broken Branch's face almost twisted, but he didn't hesitate and immediately closed his eyes and did so. Although he had no experience, he moved very quickly, and then helped her find a piece of silk to cover her body.
Broken Branch was about to turn around and go out, but he heard a loud cry from the woman, and she shouted, "Don't go!
Broken Branch had no choice but to return to the woman, stretching out his hand to hold the woman, and he didn't know what to do at the moment.
The woman was sweating, and the beads of sweat on the broken branch and head were slowly rolling down, and the woman suddenly put his hand in her mouth and bit it to bleed. Broken Branch not only did not frown, but cracked his mouth and laughed, because he saw that the woman's high bulging belly slowly disappeared a little, which meant that the child was about to be born.
The snowy afternoon in the desert was as dark as dusk, and the moment the wind stopped calling, you could almost hear the clatter of snowflakes falling on the ground. In such a quiet hour, if there is a baby's cry, in the lifeless twilight world, the whole world must be uplifted.
And so, the baby's cry came as promised. A few rays of sunlight appear and disappear behind the clouds, leaking on the desert, as if almost every inch of the barren land can grow bright flowers.
The woman used her last bit of strength to cut the umbilical cord. It was a girl, and the broken branch wrapped the child in the cleanest, softest wool blanket.
But the woman didn't breathe a sigh of relief, "Still... And one more. "The woman almost collapsed, but the pain just now had to be experienced again.
"Twins?" He Feng couldn't believe it.
Another burst of infant crying sounded, and the first baby, who had not yet completely quieted down, seemed to hear the cries of his younger siblings, and began to cry loudly again, crying one after another, suppressing the sound of the desert wind without any power to fight back.
It's all girls, the broken branch gently held it up and showed it to the woman, the woman squeezed out a playful smile like a child, she knew that she had been firmly bound to these two children for the rest of her life.
Immediately, the woman's tears unconsciously welled up again. She gently stroked the child, looked at the man in front of her who had given everything for her, wiped away her tears, and said "thank you" to the broken branch.
The sound of horses' hooves stopped outside the cave, and Kuroko and they returned.
"Don't come in, boil hot water outside, the girl is born!" Broken Branch shouted, unable to hide the joy in his heart.
But Kuroko came in anyway, and he poked in one head, but only one, and then Kuroko's head was thrown to the ground, and after rolling a few times in front of the broken branch, he looked at him with a look of horror.
"Child, why is there a child?" the voice outside made the woman almost suffocate, and the woman who had not yet recovered began to convulse again.
The woman looked at the broken branch in despair, threw out a sword to the broken branch, and almost bit blood from her mouth, "Protect the child, go quickly." ”
"No, no, no, let's go. Broken Branch shook his head vigorously.
The woman was so anxious that she pulled out the hairpin on her head and wanted to insert it under her temples, but the broken branch looked at the woman's resolute eyes, and tears suddenly fell like raindrops, "Okay, that... Take care, as long as I don't die, the child will live well. ”
After speaking, the broken branch pulled up a pull ring next to the bed, and there was a passage below. The edge of the desert is almost impossible to abandon the tunnel, and the exit of this short passage is not far from the entrance of the cave. Broken branches held the child, and the short journey was extremely difficult.
There was a carriage at the entrance of the cave, and Broken Branch immediately jumped on it and shouted at the groom, "Hurry up!"
Seeing that there was no movement inside, the people outside raised their feet and kicked in, breaking into the door, it was a monk, a crazy monk. He stared at the pale-faced woman and asked fiercely, "What about the child?"
"Please, she's your flesh and blood, please let him go," the woman begged with tears in her eyes.
"How is it possible? How is it possible?" the mad monk patted his head frantically and spun around the room, the answer made him almost collapse.
"It's your master's, right? I'll destroy this evil seed!" the mad monk struggled for a while, and suddenly flew out of the cave.
"No!" the woman cried out her desperation.
The horse had already run to the ground, and the broken branch had to run on two legs, he didn't know how far he had run, dozens of miles, hundreds of miles, he didn't know, he only knew how desperately he ran, but the cry of the baby always pulled the hunter's sensitive ears.
The broken branches came to a cold and windy lake, the snow had not yet melted at the end of winter, and some of the lakes still had some thin crushed ice. Holding a baby in each hand, Broken Branch walked towards the lake without hesitation.
The lake gradually overflowed the chest of the broken branch, and the broken branch stepped vigorously under the feet, and the biting water of the lake sometimes choked into his throat, and the broken branch felt like he had swallowed ice, and his internal organs were about to freeze. And he still desperately swam to the center of the lake, moving to the opposite bank, the crazy leaf has chased to the shore, and after going ashore, the broken branch does not care about wringing out the water on his body, and runs to the mountain.
The broken branch climbed up frantically, his clothes were already frozen, the bushes cut through his skin, the blood flowed, but after a while, it condensed into ice blood clots, but he didn't feel the cold and pain, he only knew to keep going.
The bumpy figure passed through the leaves, startling the birds. I don't know how long I climbed, but the broken branch came to a cliff, and there was only one pine tree on the edge of the cliff, and there was a faint circle floating not far from the pine tree.
The mad monk's shouting had already reached him, and he had no way to escape.
The mad monk couldn't help but speak, and sent out a finger of sword qi, and the broken branch barely dodged sideways. But before the broken branch could stand firm, the other finger sword qi came one after another, the broken branch couldn't dodge, the right shoulder was hit hard, the broken branch's right arm was numb, and he couldn't help it in an instant, and the baby he was holding flew out. Broken Branch was startled and watched as the baby wrapped in a woolen blanket flew towards the circle.
Broken Branch cried, but his throat could not make a sound, it turned into a whimper of grief, he looked down at the other baby in his arms, his frozen eyelashes could not hold the tears of despair, he jumped and jumped towards the circle...
After the spring rains, the valley is extraordinarily quiet, at the end of a broken dead branch, but two young shoots sprout, the young shoots are embraced by the raindrops, a breeze blows, and a drop of crystal shines peels off from the emerald green.
"Where's the wind?" muttered a voice under the tree.
It was a ragged, bloodstained man with a sword, holding a sleeping baby in his arms. He looked at the valley that had awakened in early spring, and there was infinite confusion in his eyes.
