Chapter 11



Chapter 11

The attack on the cubs was a major event that the turtle tribe had not encountered in decades.

Just now, the moment they stepped into the incubator, many mothers' hearts felt as cold as the coldest days of winter.

After all, the bloody marks on the kang looked like a completed crime scene.

It was not until Yan Luoyue's little hand miraculously pointed to the cabinet, revealing the cubs playing brick stacking games inside, that the mothers ignited new hope.

With shaking hands, they carefully counted the number of cubs, and every time they counted a cub's name, their hearts would calm down a little. Until the last number was counted, someone in the hatchery suddenly cheered.

"All the cubs are here, and all the little turtles are fine!"

"That's great, that's great. Seeing that they are all safe, I feel relieved."

"It's really God's blessing. The monster has clearly already gotten into bed, but it didn't hurt our child..."

Just when the conversation was halfway through, everyone suddenly realized something.

These cubs in the tribe are still young, how could they hide in the cupboard so neatly?

Even if they hid in the cupboard in an orderly manner, the lock on the outside of the cupboard could not have been hung by the weasel out of kindness for the cubs.

After figuring out the key point, the mothers' eyes all fell on Yan Luoyue.

These kind-hearted aunts and uncles were so excited that they could not express themselves clearly and even spoke haltingly.

"It must be Luoyue who protected the cubs. Good boy, you are so brave at such a young age. You are really the smartest little divine turtle in the history of our turtle clan!"

"Don't worry, Luoyue. I will tell Erqiuzi about your kindness when he grows up. I want him to remember it for the rest of his life!"

"Ouch, it's all because of that evil weasel monster. Its blood has soaked Luoyue's blanket. Come on, here are the new clothes I brought home, change Luoyue into them quickly."

This act of sending clothes was like a signal, and after that, some strange switch was turned on among the women.

Throughout the afternoon, the uncles and aunts in the tribe who had just finished hibernating came to the door like a relay race, carrying large and small bags in their hands, with a firm attitude and no room for excuses.

In this hand, he was holding a basket of "the freshest and most tender fat earworms that squeak in your mouth when you bite them."

Under that armpit was a bag of "red centipedes that burst with juice and are as thick as a little finger."

Yan Luoyue's eyes widened as she heard this, and a heart-wrenching cry rang out in her mind—

No, she refused, she didn't want such a thank-you gift!

Ahhh, this is simply repaying kindness with enmity!

Yan Yu held Yan Luoyue in her arms with care, and Yan Gan squatted beside her. She was still frightened until this moment, and her eyes looking at Yan Luoyue were full of fear of losing and regaining.

In the end, Yan Gan stepped forward to refuse: "Take it back and give it to Xiaobao as a snack. You don't know that Luoyue is picky and usually doesn't like to eat these bugs."

"What, Luoyue doesn't eat bugs?" The other party said firmly on the spot, "Then what does she like to eat? I'll take it back now and exchange it for fish, shrimp, and scallops - no, don't refuse, this is not for you and Yu Yatou, this is for Luoyue!"

It was not until dusk appeared on the horizon that Yan Yu closed the door and thanked the guests. The tribesmen who had come to give gifts one after another then left.

In the living room of Yu's house, there was already a mountain of gifts piled up.

In addition to food and clothing that children can use, there are also valuable items such as low-grade spirit stones and low-level magic tools.

Noticing Yan Luoyue's curious gaze, Yan Yu gently scratched the tip of Yan Luoyue's nose.

"You can use these when you grow up. I'll save them for you."

Yan Gan pulled down the curtain of the inner room, turned two or three steps, held Yan Luoyue's little hand, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister Yu, today is so dangerous."

“I know.” Yan Yu touched Yan Luoyue’s fair and smooth face with care. “Someone in the tribe went to the hatchery and deduced that the weasel might have been seriously injured before, and died from excessive blood loss before it had time to hunt, but…”

But Yan Yu was always skeptical about this statement.

Unlike other members of the tribe, Yan Yu had personally seen Yan Luoyue bleeding all over his body.

At that time, the traces left by Luoyue on the swaddling clothes were very similar to the traces left by Luoyue on the swaddling clothes today.

Yan Yu was full of thoughts, and she stroked Yan Luoyue's hair with her hands. She thought worriedly: Can I really raise this child to grow up healthy?

In contrast, those who do not know the inside story are more cheerful.

He pinched Yan Luoyue's tender little fingers and talked to her in a babble.

"Sister Yu and I were both scolded, and Uncle Bao, who had taken me away earlier, was scolded by the aunties and is now kneeling on the washboard at home. It is said that when the elders wake up, this matter will be reported to them for judgment and punishment."

"Conservatively speaking, he will have to hold the stone for at least half a year."

Hearing this, Yan Luoyue opened her eyes slightly.

Today's accident was almost entirely caused by this cousin. Thinking about it now, she is a little scared.

Yan Luoyue brought her own backpack plug-in and some blood-recovery pills to eat. But what about the other little turtles in the house?

If the little turtles had reacted a little slower, there might not have been the happy ending we have now.

"...Top stone?"

Turtles are good at carrying heavy loads. This item sounds like some kind of turtle-specific punishment?

"Yeah, that's right." Yan Gan took a breath and obviously saw similar scenes before. "But since it's a punishment, you can't use the turtle shell to lift it up, you can only use the turtle's head."

Yan Luoyue: “!!!”

What, what? What head? Do you dare to say it again?

Half a second later, Yan Luoyue realized belatedly that this head was not that head.

Well, this...

Fortunately, Yan Gan did not notice that Yan Luoyue's expression stiffened for a moment, and he continued to read on.

"No matter what the punishment is, it's well deserved. Fortunately, you're fine, sister. Alas, I felt better when I heard them scolding me before."

"Those monks who didn't choose the right cages have apologized to the tribe... After all, it was also due to the carelessness of the tribe members in charge of reception and inspection. We are also at fault."

"They also gave you an apology gift. I've seen it. It's a fairy-colored storage bag. You can use it when you're older."

"From today on, the clan will set up sentries around the incubator. In addition to Sister Yu and I taking care of it during the day, other uncles will also take turns on duty in groups of two. This way, there will be no more mistakes like today..."

Yan Gan's mumbling has a kind of magical power like white noise.

As Yan Luoyue listened, her eyelids drooped subconsciously.

Her day was full of ups and downs. First she killed the sudden attacking weasel monster, and then she had to deal with waves of gratitude from her tribesmen.

At this moment, as Yan Gan muttered in a familiar voice, sleepiness enveloped Yan Luoyue unknowingly.

Her little head slowly fell into a sweet dream accompanied by steady breathing.

Yan Gan said in a low voice: "Sister Yu, my sister is asleep."

"I understand." Yan Yu twisted the thread under the light and carefully passed it through the needle hole. "There is a book in the willow box on the far left side of the inner room. You can get it for me."

Yan Gan took it as he was told and flipped through it.

"Hey, Sister Yu, this isn't..."

Isn't this a required lesson for every member of the Turtle Tribe, the introductory practice of "Turtle Breathing Technique"?

Yan Yu spoke quickly, and said slowly, "I know you love talking to Luoyue. From tomorrow on, read this book to Luoyue when you have nothing to do."

Yan Gan suddenly laughed: "Sister Yu, didn't we all wait until we were five years old to be taught by the clan? Besides, Luoyue is so young that she can't even speak complete sentences. She couldn't understand me when I read the exercises to her."

Yan Yu glanced at him and said, "Just read it yourself."

Since she brought Luoyue back home, she truly treated her as her own sister and raised her.

Yan Luoyue has been much more sensible and obedient than other little turtles since she was born.

Today, she saved the other cubs in the tribe from danger, and indirectly saved Yan Yu from the guilt and pain for decades to come.

How could Yan Yu not like such a caring child?

However, Yan Luoyue has been in critical condition too many times since he was born.

Yan Yu heard from the elders in the tribe that there is a kind of children in the world who are the best of both worlds and are born with intelligence and wisdom from the moment they are conceived.

But such children are often born with talent and cannot be kept in this world.

The human world is not like the demon world. The demons living here do not have the unique geographical advantages. Among the demons who stay in the human world, whether it is magic weapons or cultivation, they are not as good as the turtles.

There is only one book called "Turtle Breathing Skill" which is the enlightenment skill left by our ancestors.

The little turtle who was enlightened by this method could keep a peaceful state of mind no matter what skills he practiced in the future, and was therefore more comfortable than ordinary people.

Yan Yu twisted a new thread and compared the colors of the two embroidery threads under the light.

She thought secretly: As the saying goes, Tao follows nature, maybe for this young cub who is blessed by fate, the introduction to martial arts can be learned naturally just by listening to someone reading it to them?

——————————

Yan Luoyue didn’t know about Yan Yu’s psychological activities. If she knew, she would be surprised that Yan Yu’s filter for herself was so thick.

This is probably a variation of "There is a kind of cold that makes your mother think you are cold": There is a kind of ability that makes your sister think you are capable.

However, Yan Luoyue was still very surprised to hear Yan Gan reciting the martial arts techniques.

Previously, due to the limitation of lv0, Yan Luoyue could not use most of the items in her backpack. Now that she finally had the skills, she could start to try to practice and upgrade.

After the attack on the cubs, the tribe increased its vigilance in many important areas.

The next day, when Yan Luoyue went to the incubation room with Yan Yu again, she found that the place had been strictly guarded.

And with the arrival of spring, the temperature has risen and many tribesmen have gradually awakened from hibernation.

With the awakening of the tribesmen, the turtle tribe no longer had the previous embarrassment of being short of manpower.

When spring came and the grass grew, the birds were singing, and the earth was full of spring, among this group of turtle cubs, the first little turtle who successfully transformed into a human form appeared, besides Yan Luoyue.

That day, in the incubator, the aunts and uncles were in great joy; outside the incubator, there were also clansmen entertaining the white cranes that had returned from the north, and they were chatting excitedly and bursting into laughter.

In this comfortable, peaceful and slow-paced small tribe, Yan Luoyue spent her first year in this world safely.

Winter comes and summer goes, and a year cycle has passed.

When winter came to this land again, Yan Luoyue made a surprising discovery.

That day, Yan Luoyue looked up out of habit and soon noticed something wrong with his health bar.

Unconvinced, she pulled down the red strip on her head to take a closer look, and compared it with her short little hands.

After repeated confirmation, Yan Luoyue felt surprised and happy. Besides the surprise, she also felt a little bit at a loss, as if she was given a lottery ticket worth five million when she was walking on the street.

——Who can tell Yan Luoyue how come her health bar suddenly grew longer in the blink of an eye?
