Chapter 209 Red Eyed Baby(1/2)

Early the next morning, Zhuo Zhan made arrangements for Yi Long and others to send Xuan Ling away.

Boss Yi Long was reluctant and started wrangling all kinds of things. Xuan Ling lay on the ground and rolled around again, which made Zhuo Zhan, the person with the most ideas, become a worried little widow watching the sedan chair. In the end, he could only let Xuan Ling follow them up. We got into the carriage and reluctantly headed to the mysterious Yindiial Valley together.

They followed the northwest direction, passed official roads, passed through small gorges, and crossed valleys. Finally, at night on the fourth day, they arrived at the most yin place where Yin Mountain and Yin Water meet, the Yin Dial Valley.

The entire Yindial Valley stretches along the narrow strip at the foot of Yinshan Mountain. It takes a long drive to get deep into the hinterland where the people in the valley live.

So when Zhuo Zhan and the others entered the canyon, they didn't find any human traces or fireworks. Suddenly they looked up and saw a thin waterfall between the two towering mountains next to them, like a piece of cloth, passing through the air from the broken walls of the two mountains. In the moonlight, it looks like a silver thread faintly piercing through the black night. The thin waterfall roars, splashing jade, and there is a mysterious beauty in the softness, which is very different from other places.

Everyone sighed at the feminine beauty of the landscape, and their tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed, and they continued walking towards the valley with a relaxed and happy mood.

After passing two more hills, dots of firelight and endless roofs appeared in front of the place. The simple but shocking tune was getting louder and louder, as if some festive festival was being celebrated in the valley.

When Zhuo Zhan and the others approached the excitement, they saw several large bonfires lit side by side in the empty space between the two rows of houses. Humans and orcs held hands and cheered loudly around the bonfires.

The strong young man held up the big pottery altar and drank boldly and had fun, and the wine flowed down his throat without realizing it; the young girls happily danced and laughed around the bonfire; the old people who could not dance squatted Sitting in front of the bonfire, his chrysanthemum-like old face was full of radiance, and he kept throwing dry pine branches prepared in advance into the bonfire; the tightly wrapped children in the corner were running and scurrying back and forth, laughing. Yell.

The entire narrow valley has turned into a bright fire dragon, a long river of joy.

Soon, the singing and dancing men and women discovered Zhuo Zhan and his group of outsiders. However, they were neither surprised nor questioned. Instead, they laughed and waved, pulling Zhuo Zhan and the others into the group of people surrounding the fire. Singing and dancing circles.

At first, Zhuo Zhan and the others were a little lively and their movements and expressions were very stiff, but soon they were infected by the enthusiasm of the villagers and the joyful atmosphere, and started singing and dancing hand in hand with them. Yi Long and the others were hiding in the earth Several people in the gang even started drinking wine with the young people in the valley, and they were very happy.

Not long after, an old man in rough clothes with disheveled white hair climbed up to the wooden platform in a drunken state, raised the knobby wooden scepter in his hand, and shouted loudly: "After drinking the Ming Dynasty wine, the longevity fire will go away!"

I saw people in the entire valley cheering for joy. Everyone picked up torches and came to the bonfire to light them. Zhuo Zhan, who was unaware of the situation, also followed suit, and then followed the villagers consciously lining up in a long queue, slowly moving towards the bonfire. Moving forward.

People were all over the mountains and fields waving torches in their hands, dancing and dancing, singing unscrupulously, letting go of their throats and roaring the simple and loud tunes, and the valleys were filled with inspiring wild shouts.

Until everyone could no longer sing, dance, or drink, the bonfire became smaller and smaller, and people collapsed in front of the bonfire, either drinking like crazy or laughing and chatting.

A scene of drunkenness and dreams.

An orc couple embraced each other intimately and chatted passionately with Zhuo Zhan, Chi, and Xuan Ling.

The husband glanced at Zhuo Zhan and saw that each of his arms was held by a girl in red. He couldn't help but joked: "Hey, little brother, it's okay. There are wives and concubines even when you are young."

"No! I am the wife, and she is just a wild girl who appeared out of nowhere." Chibai glanced at Xuan Ling with a displeased look on his face.

"Then you, the real wife, can't even drive away a wild girl like me who came out of nowhere. It's really a failure." Xuan Ling immediately stuck out his tongue at Chi, and in an instant his smile was brighter than Hua'er's, and he was so angry that he couldn't get rid of me.

The willow eyebrows suddenly stood up.

"What, you think you are too young?" The wife's face darkened, she punched her husband's chest, and narrowed her eyes threateningly at her cheerful husband.

"Hey, how dare I? Just one of you is enough with Qingye. It smells so good, it's better than ten!" The husband was not in a hurry. After a smile and assurance, he took his wife's head and took care of her.

He kissed her hard on the lips, regardless of the side glances and blushes of Zhuo Zhan and the other three people beside him.

However, the intimate behavior of the orc couple still moved Chi. She had imagined countless times what it would be like after she and Zhuo Zhan got married, but she could never imagine it. At this time, she saw the couple opposite

With such a loving look, I have a further outline of my married life.

Chi narrowed her eyes in envy and asked softly: "Brother and sister-in-law, you are so in love. How many years have you two been together?"

"Just call me Big Brother Huo. They all call me that. My last name is unique in the valley and no one else has it." The husband stared at his round eyes and said proudly. "We were born when we were five or six years old.

We got to know each other and were together every day. As we grew up, we naturally became married. Since we met, we have never been separated for a day."

"Wow, we are together every day, so envious..." Xuan Ling slapped his feet on the ground, shaking his shoulders with excitement.

"Listen to his nonsense." The wife hugged her husband and said seriously: "We are together every day, and we quarrel every day. There is not a day that goes by that this guy doesn't make me angry."

"Then every time after a quarrel at the head of the bed and a fight at the end of the bed, you say, did our feud last the night?" Brother Huo said roughly, then picked up his wife and asked her to sit on it.

fell onto his lap, followed by another burst of laughter.

Zhuo Zhan was a little embarrassed when he saw this scene. He quickly picked up the branches on the ground, fiddled with the extinguished ashes, and tried to change the topic quickly: "By the way, Brother Huo, the valley is so lively today, is there some special ceremony being held?

ah?"

"Oh, yes, you just came here and you don't know yet. Look at my head, I forgot to tell you about this." Brother Huo slapped his head suddenly and grinned.

"The wine I drank today is called Ming Dynasty wine; the fire I jumped on is the longevity fire. It is an old custom in the valley. Every time a pregnant woman wants to have a baby, the elders in the valley will organize everyone to drink Ming Dynasty wine.

Drink wine, dance on the longevity fire, and pray for the baby in your belly, so that the baby can see the sun tomorrow and live a long life."

"Oh? This custom is quite special. So, there is a woman in labor in the valley right now?"

"Yes, today, the youngest daughter of the human tribe leader gave birth. Elder Feng learned from Granny Wen that it was a bit difficult to give birth, so he asked us to make a fuss more lively. But to be honest, today's fuss is more serious than before.

Look at these people, they are all so drunk that they don’t recognize anyone else." Brother Huo said, pointing to the people lying on the ground around him, and he also let out a big yawn.

Sister-in-law Huo rested her head on Brother Huo's chest and said with emotion: "I can't accept it anymore. You said Huayao, this girl, I grew up watching, and now she has to be the mother of someone else's baby. You

Say I...hey..." After Mrs. Huo finished speaking, she put her head into Brother Huo's arms and stopped talking.

Brother Huo, who had been laughing all the time, became anxious when he heard this. He straightened his back and shouted loudly: "What's wrong with not having a doll? Huh, it's great to have a doll? Hey, I, Old Huo, don't like dolls.

I don’t even want my wife to suffer like that!”

After Brother Huo said this, he was still breathing heavily from his nose, and his round eyes were as wide as an old cow.

Mrs. Huo, on the other hand, held his neck with both hands, with a sad expression on her face, and there seemed to be a little tears in her eyes.

Zhuo Zhan understood at this time that although the loving brother and sister-in-law Huo had been married for many years, they had no choice but to have no children to support them. After experiencing this grand birth blessing ceremony today, I must have felt uncomfortable in my heart.

Maybe when you laugh and dance, you are trying to force a smile.

Zhuo Zhan didn't know how to comfort the couple. He was really not good at this kind of thing. It would be great if Duan Yue were here. Thinking of this, Zhuo Zhan couldn't help but wonder where Zhuangzi and Duan Yue had gone. He hadn't seen them for a long time.

When he stretched his head to look for her, he saw a woman running from a distance. The woman staggered past the people lying on the ground, with a look of panic on her face, and ran straight towards the white-haired old man who had climbed up to the high platform before.

"Elder Feng, Elder Feng! It's not good, it's not good. You should go to Tu's house and have a look."

When Elder Feng, who was already drunk and unconscious, heard this, he suddenly jumped up and sat up. He squeezed his eyes hard and shook his head to wake himself up. He quickly leaned out and stared nervously.

Looking at the woman: "What's wrong? Something happened to the flower waist girl? Can't the baby be born?"

The woman looked sad: "The Tu family's daughter-in-law is fine, and the baby has been born. It's a big fat boy. But..."

Before the woman could finish speaking, Elder Feng let out a long breath and interrupted the woman angrily: "Oh, Xun's family, your words are going to scare a person to death. Adults and children are all fine. Why are you still here?"

Why are you crying so hard?"

The woman seemed to be even more anxious, shaking her head and waving her hands: "No, no, no, that's not the case."

"What is that?" Elder Feng rubbed his sleepy eyelids, feeling a little impatient.

The woman who had been interrupted was not only anxious now, her twisted and twitching face was full of pain, she almost yelled with all her strength: "Master Tuer wants to throw the baby to death, but also...

Kill Zhenzhong!"

Elder Feng was obviously shocked by the roar, and the people around him who were not completely drunk also suddenly woke up. However, what shocked them more was not the roar, but the content of the roar.

Elder Feng was seen holding the tumor staff with both hands, trying hard to support his swaying body, and was horrified: "What did you say?"

When the woman saw that Elder Feng finally understood what she was talking about, her arrogance was completely released. She nodded with a sad face: "Yes, that's right, Elder Feng, go and have a look. No one can stop you."

Can’t stand it anymore!”

Elder Feng pondered for a moment, rolled his eyes, and said hoarsely: "What happened to anger Master Tu Er?"

The woman beat her thighs with both hands and said anxiously: "That baby, that baby was born with red eyes, just like Zhen Zhong's!"

Elder Feng was shocked. The absurd guess he had just had in his mind turned out to be a reality, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. A gust of cool wind blew, and Elder Feng's dull head suddenly became clear.

He said loudly: "Let's go."

Seeing Elder Feng and the woman rushing towards the row of houses at the foot of the mountain in a panic, the people who had just heard the conversation also stood up one after another, ignoring the discussion, and hurried over there together with anxious faces.

"Brother Huo, what's going on?" Chi looked curiously at the people rushing over, eager to know this seemingly exciting countryside gossip.

However, Brother Huo's expression was very solemn, and his two thick black eyebrows were almost twisted together: "No, I have to go too, brother Zhen is in danger..."

After Brother Huo finished speaking, he broke away from Sister Hui, stood up quickly, and headed in the direction of Elder Feng.

"Brother Zhuo Zhan, let's go take a look too." Chi pulled Zhuo Zhan's clothes and stood up.

"Yes, yes, I want to go too." Xuan Ling also agreed.

"I'll take you there." Sister-in-law Huo slowly stood up with a sad expression on her face. She didn't know whether she was still immersed in her own grief, or she was lamenting the bad things going on in the Tu family.

Zhuo Zhan nodded, and the three of them followed Mrs. Huo and walked towards the row of low houses at the foot of the mountain.

The door of the small courtyard was open. Pushing through the crowded crowd, Zhuo Zhan and the others arrived at this extremely ordinary mud and stone hut.

There are three low houses connected together. Except for a piece of red silk hanging on the door, nothing valuable can be seen.

Zhuo Zhan thought to himself that he had heard from Brother Huo that the child he gave birth to was the daughter of the leader of the human race, but he didn't expect his family to be so simple. It seemed that Qi Hao's rumor that there was no wealth in the valley was true.

Chi was very active. She pushed away the onlookers in front and got in when she saw an opening. Zhuo Zhan and Xuan Ling followed her. It was convenient and they quickly squeezed to the door of the hut.

There were so many people inside and outside the house that I couldn’t see clearly what was going on inside, but I could hear the shouts and shouts. The first thing that came into my ears was Elder Feng’s hoarse scolding, and then the cries of women and the wails of babies intertwined.

Together, there was also the sound of metal and stone hitting, it seemed like something was going on inside.

"Yichan, give me the child, give it to me!" The woman's cry was heartbreaking.

"I will kill this scoundrel today, along with your concubine!" The man's violent voice shook the room.

"Tuer! Don't be impulsive and give me the child before the matter is clear." was the angry voice of Elder Feng.

"Isn't it clear? This child's eyes..."
