“The rest of you come with me. I know how to get around those hidden weapons.”
Gongsun Yu led a group of men through the house.
Fu Xiaoyu followed Lai Guitou through the secret passage to the back mountain.
Time was of the essence, so the others followed Gongsun Yu and circled around to the back of the mountain.
Cui Yulu endured a difficult childbirth inside the cave. As it was her first pregnancy, the delivery was not smooth, and she could only use acupuncture to keep herself awake.
But I couldn't muster any strength in my body.
Just when all their cries for help went unanswered, they heard another wolf howl.
This made her even more nervous.
"Babies, hang in there, Mommy will make sure you come into this world safely."
Despite the pain, Cui Yulu got up and walked into the cave.
But the stench of blood on his body grew stronger and stronger, arousing the wild wolves outside.
The howling grew louder and louder.
Cui Yulu stumbled and fell to the ground.
When I tried to get up again, I found that I had no strength left in my body.
At this moment, a wolf had already entered the cave and followed her, drawn by the scent of blood.
In the dark cave, Cui Yulu saw a pair of bright green eyes staring at her.
"Someone, please save me!"
The wolf stared at her menacingly, walking towards her step by step.
Another wave of pain hit her stomach, and she felt as if the baby's head was emerging.
He felt weak and could only watch as the wolf walked towards him.
"Fu Xiaoyu, our fate in this life has come to an end. I hope we will never meet again in the next life. You must live well, because I may not be able to hold on any longer."
Fu Xiaoyu, who had just killed the wolves outside, seemed to hear Cui Yulu's voice.
But the sound was somewhat muffled, and he couldn't hear it clearly.
Suddenly, a wolf howl echoed from inside the cave, accompanied by a woman's cry, making Fu Xiaoyu's nerves tense.
Without a second thought, I entered the cave.
However, all that could be seen was a wolf carrying a naked child in its mouth, which looked like it had just been born.
Its small body trembled incessantly, turning somewhat purple from the cold.
There were some women's clothes and some children's clothes scattered ahead. It looked like she had given birth in a hurry and hadn't had time to dress her child before she encountered the wolf.
When the wolf saw someone come in, it immediately became alert, pricked up its ears, and stared at Fu Xiaoyu.
It kept making low growls in its throat, as if warning him not to come any closer.
Fu Xiaoyu felt a rush of blood to her head; this was her own child.
So he severed the wolf's neck with a single sword stroke. The wolf didn't even have time to howl, and it still had the child in its mouth.
The tiny baby was suddenly covered in blood and began to cry anxiously.
His voice was soft, like a kitten's. The child was born prematurely, and even his cries were much softer than those of normal babies.
Fu Xiaoyu trembled as she picked up the small blanket from the ground and wrapped the naked baby in it.
This is the child that Cui Yulu risked her life to keep, and he must protect the child to be worthy of her.
The tiny baby cried in his arms, seemingly searching for its mother's embrace.
The newborn baby's skin was wrinkled and not very pretty, but in Fu Xiaoyu's eyes, it looked exactly like Cui Yulu.
While Fu Xiaoyu was tidying up the children, Lai Guitou used his skills to search the entire cave, but still couldn't find Cui Yulu.
"Your Highness, could it be that Yulu has been eaten by this wolf...?"
Lai Guitou really didn't dare to continue.
Fu Xiaoyu roared with bloodshot eyes, "Bring everyone in! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, find Yulu for me!"
“I’ve scouted out this cave. There’s not much of a path ahead, not even enough for one person to pass through. I’m pretty sure that’s where the dew disappeared.”
And if the wolf is carrying a child in its mouth, then where did the other child and Cui Yulu go?
If Yulu was rescued, why leave a child behind?
Or is there some hidden paradise inside this cave?
Compared to the others, he hoped that he had been rescued.
When everyone gathered in the cave, the torches illuminated the entire cave.
There were only some scattered clothes on the ground, but no trace of Cui Yulu.
Everyone was exhausted by the time it was late at night.
Fu Xiaoyu glanced at them, her eyes red, and said, "You should all go back. I'll wait for Yulu here."
"But Your Highness, we have searched this place many times, but we can't find Yulu anywhere. Perhaps she has already been rescued. You should come back with us."
Lin Yun was worried that Fu Xiaoyu might do something foolish, so she thought of having him go back with her.
“You guys go back. Yulu is here. I should stay with her. Her childbirth must have been very painful. I need to be by her side, otherwise she will be scared.”
Fu Xiaoyu held the child, her expression somewhat blank, and muttered to herself.
"Your Highness, this is not a solution. Yulu is definitely not here. There is no one inside the wolf's belly. Perhaps Yulu has been rescued. You should go back to Xi'an and we can discuss this further."
Seeing Fu Xiaoyu's distressed state, Qiao Qiao felt a pang of guilt.
"Since Your Highness is not coming back with us, then I'm sorry."
A fragrant aroma wafted over, and Fu Xiaoyu felt his body go limp. Lin Yun quickly hugged him upon seeing this.
The group finally returned to the Prince's Palace.
To prevent Fu Xiaoyu from waking up in the middle of the night again, Qiao Qiao gave him some more medicine after returning home, ensuring that he could sleep until noon the next day.
