Chapter 102
Qingheng took several steps back, and seeing that Lin Zhou was still trying to hug him, a hint of rejection appeared on his cold face.
"Lin Zhou, I'm not a cub anymore."
Qingheng's emphasis and resistance made Lin Zhou feel a little hurt.
With a handsome face that didn't look like an elder's at all, he said to Qing Heng: "You little brat, you don't have the spirit of an outgoing person."
Qingheng: "..."
Qingheng saw that he stood still and finally stopped coming closer, and he breathed a sigh of relief with an almost unnoticeable sense.
The two of them kept a few steps apart, looking at each other face to face.
"Qingzi, do you want some candy?"
"No, call me Qingheng."
"Qingzi, the candy I'm talking about is not ordinary candy. It's the candy that the Zhuling cubs love the most. Qiaoqiao likes it very much. I gave Qiaoqiao several."
Lin Zhou was talking to himself. He didn't have any sugar at the moment. If he wanted to refine the sugar, it would take some time.
So, after telling Qingheng that he would give him candy in two days, Lin Zhou opened the other gifts he had prepared and showed them to Qingheng.
"I've wanted to see you for a long time, but I just didn't have time."
If Lin Zhou had known that there was another cub, he would have gone there immediately without waiting to collect gifts and would never have delayed until now.
Qingheng had a general impression of the gift prepared by Lin Zhou.
These gifts are indeed very valuable, but Qingheng is not someone who has never seen the world, nor is he someone who can be easily pleased.
No matter how expensive the gift is, it can't move his heart.
He put aside the gift and turned the topic back to Ming Qiao.
"Ming Qiao and I have no intention of returning to the Zhuling tribe, and I hope you won't come and disturb our lives."
"If you don't want to go back, I can not force you to go back."
Lin Zhou stared at the big kid in front of him without blinking, and said in a gentle tone: "But I may not be able to do it without disturbing you."
"You are all my beloved children. I will take care of you and protect you in the future. I can't stay away from you."
Lin Zhou's words were so heartfelt that Qing Heng remained silent.
The atmosphere in the room was a little subtle for a moment.
"Cough, cough, cough."
There was a cough coming from the inner room.
When Qingheng heard the voice, he immediately walked over.
He walked to the bed, bent down, and patted his son's back.
Mingqiao's cough was sometimes heavy and sometimes light, intermittent, and lasted for a long time.
"Did you cover his mouth when you brought him back?"
Qingheng asked without turning his head as he hugged his son.
Lin Zhou, who followed, was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Why are you covering his face?"
Qingheng: "..."
Qing Heng pursed his lips, a hint of displeasure flashing across his eyes.
"He is in poor health and is prone to illness. The wind is cold at night and he cannot stand the wind."
If you get caught in the wind at night, coughing is a minor matter, but having a fever at night is a problem.
"I, I don't know."
Lin Zhou was a little at a loss: "I have never taken care of a cub before, I don't know that he can't be exposed to the wind, so what should I do now? I have some pills here, can I feed him two?"
"No."
Qing Heng said calmly: "If you have hot water, pour me a glass."
"Okay, I'll go pour it for you now."
Lin Zhou hurriedly poured hot water and handed it to Qingheng.
Qingheng picked up the baby, fed him half a cup of milk, and then let him continue to sleep.
With the interruption of the baby, the two people couldn't have a complete conversation.
They could only surround the cub and talk intermittently.
Lin Zhou told Ming Qiao the purpose of taking him out.
When Qingheng, who was sitting beside the bed, heard Mingqiao made a wish and that Wu Ye would be here soon, his heart skipped a beat.
He held Mingqiao's chubby little hand, and there was a brief moment of daze on his handsome face.
Wu Ye...is coming.
Is he really coming?
"Qingzi, if you have any wishes, you can tell me like Qiaoqiao did. By the way, do you want to see the sacred tree? Next time I will take you and Qiaoqiao there. Are you willing to go?"
Qingheng really wanted to go and see the sacred tree.
He didn't say anything, just blinked his drooping eyelashes slightly.
Lin Zhou had been observing his expression. When he saw him blink, he immediately said, "Next time, we'll go together. It's a deal. No one will be left out."
Lin Zhou told everyone about the Zhuling tribe and the sacred tree.
He was quite excited.
He smiled and said, "Let us pray that the curse of the Eldar having no cubs is lifted."
He smiled, his eyes reddening again: "Our Zhuling tribe will not be extinct like the Wu tribe."
Not to mention the cubs, even the adults of the Wu clan are going to be extinct.
"Qingzi, I'm so happy to see you and Qiaoqiao."
Lin Zhou is not a gentle person.
He is impatient, has a bad temper, doesn't like to talk to people, and doesn't like to socialize with others.
It is only when he is coaxing Mingqiao and Qingheng that he will flatter them. If it is anyone else, he will never show a good face.
It's late at night.
Lin Zhou didn't let Qing Heng leave: "It's too late. If you leave now, Qiao Qiao will wake up. You should just stay in bed for the night."
"I'll go sleep next door so I won't disturb you."
Lin Zhou had no experience in taking care of cubs. After all, the Zhuling tribe was in dire need of cubs.
He has no experience, but he still has common sense.
He knows that staying up late is not good.
"Qingzi, if you have anything to say, just call me. I'm next door, I'll come over when you call me."
"Yes, I understand."
Of the two people, it was Lin Zhou who mostly did the talking.
Qingheng didn't say anything, nor did he tell him anything.
As soon as Lin Zhou left, Qing Heng set up a barrier to isolate him and Ming Qiao inside.
He looked at Mingqiao's sleeping face and touched it gently.
In Mingqiao's pocket, the two Yayas also fell asleep.
Qingheng has not yet told Lin Zhou about the existence of the Yayas and the whereabouts of their mother.
He was very wary and always a little worried about Lin Zhou.
Qingheng didn't sleep that night.
He stayed with Mingqiao and kept an eye on his physical condition.
Mingqiao was caught in a bit of wind at night and had a severe cough. Apart from that, his temperature rose slightly at dawn, but it was not serious.
Qingheng watched over him without closing his eyes.
By daybreak, Mingqiao's face had finally returned to its normal rosy color.
The baby woke up, rubbed his eyes, and felt a little tired from sleeping.
"Mother."
He rolled over and landed in Qingheng's arms: "I still feel sleepy."
"Do you still want to sleep? If so, continue sleeping. I'll go and ask for leave for you."
Between going to school and sleeping, Qingheng chose the latter for his son.
In his eyes, studies are not as important as his son's sleep.
"Don't ask for leave."
Ming Qiao buried her little head in Qing Heng's arms and rubbed it hard, and then she sobered up a little: "I'm going to school. I won't ask for leave."
"Okay, Qiao Qiao wants to go to school, so let's go to school."
"Um!"
After lying in bed with his mother for a while, Ming Qiao almost woke up. He straightened his little body and sat up all of a sudden.
Qingheng changed his clothes and put on his little shoes, then touched his forehead again, fearing that the temperature of his forehead might be wrong.
"Qiao Qiao, if you feel uncomfortable during class, just tell the teacher and go home, okay? You have a cold and you were coughing last night."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao didn't remember coughing.
He tried to think about it vaguely, but couldn't remember it.
"Mom, did I disturb you at night?"
"No."
How could Qing Heng dislike his son's coughing? He said gently, "Mother is afraid that you will get sick."
As the two were talking, Lin Zhou prepared a sumptuous breakfast.
He prepared this breakfast not only for Mingqiao, but also for Qingheng.
At the dinner table.
Ming Qiao looked at Qing Heng, then at Lin Zhou, and his chubby little hands holding the chopsticks paused.
He felt that Lin Zhou's eyes were strange.
"Qingzi, Qiaoqiao is going to class. Do you have anything to do? If you have nothing to do, you can stay here with me."
"I have an alchemy room here, do you want to take a look?"
"In no mood."
Qingheng didn't want to see the alchemy room, nor did he want to deal with Lin Zhou.
After he sent Mingqiao to the study room, he turned and left.
"well."
Looking at Qingheng's back, Lin Zhou looked melancholy.
He held Qiaoqiao, the soft little cub, but had not yet held Qingheng, the older cub.
"I don't know if there will be a chance in the future..."
Lin Zhou murmured, his wish was to hold all the cubs of the Zhuling tribe.
Qingheng walked very fast, without stopping, for fear that if he walked too slowly he would be hugged by some Zhuling tribe member who had gone mad because of lack of children.
On the way back to my residence, the ginkgo nuts were still in the pots and had not yet sprouted.
The morning sun is very comfortable. Although the warmth is not as strong as at noon, it is still a little warm.
Baiguo heard the sound and looked back.
When he saw Qingheng, he waved his little leaf at him as a greeting.
Qingheng walked over and sat beside him for a while.
Qingheng has a lot to do every day.
He had to check a lot of things, and also use the remaining money to buy some properties. He couldn't just sit there and live off his savings.
Check things, invest in businesses, deal with the Xiao family, and make good use of time to practice.
Qingheng's schedule is tight and busy.
Time like this, sitting quietly, is precious to him.
Baiguo looked at Qingheng quietly.
He could see Qingheng's fatigue, and he could also see Qingheng's mental tension.
But he couldn't help Qingheng in any way.
He only knows how to cure people's illnesses.
"Qingheng."
After looking at Qing Heng for a while, Bai Guo suddenly spoke up: "Can I, can I open a pharmacy?"
He just realized that he could make some money by opening a pharmacy.
"Just stay at home."
Qingheng knew that Baiguo was introverted.
If you open a pharmacy, you will inevitably have to deal with people, which would probably be a torture for Baiguo.
"I want to help you."
"Need not."
Qingheng stretched out his hand and touched the flower pot of Baiguo with his slender and beautiful fingers: "Guoguo, I am very grateful that you stay here well."
He has too much to do and it's too tiring.
He actually felt very good that Baiguo could accompany him quietly for a while.
Qingheng insisted on not letting Baiguo help him, so Baiguo could only continue to bask in the sun in the pot.
Time goes by little by little.
Not long after, Qingheng left again.
Qingheng is busy and Mingqiao is also in school. Both the big and the small have their own things to do.
And someone is watching them closely.
"Hasn't Lin Zhou's background been found out yet?"
In the lobby of the Xiao family, the Xiao family's patriarch sat in the middle seat and frowned as he asked, "Is it Rong Xiu who is protecting him from behind?"
"From what I can see so far, yes. He was brought to the academy by Rong Xiu, and Rong Xiu's indulgence of him is simply limitless."
"I had people try to manipulate him so that he would leave the academy, but it didn't work."
A man on the right frowned deeply when he said this.
He also couldn't understand why Rong Xiu was so tolerant of Lin Zhou.
He had people frame and slander Lin Zhou, and also spread rumors about Lin Zhou, but no matter what Lin Zhou "did", Rong Xiu never said a word.
Not to mention expelling Lin Zhou from the academy, he even scolded him but never told Lin Zhou about it.
As long as Lin Zhou stayed, Ming Qiao would be well protected in the academy.
Mingqiao can't move here, and his parent Qingheng's whereabouts are also difficult to determine.
"We can't waste time like this any longer. I want Ming Qiao and Qing Heng to die."
The head of the Xiao family thought about the promise he made to his cousin, and his tone unconsciously revealed a hint of annoyance.
He curled his fingers and tapped the table: "Let Wuying do it."
Wuying is a killer organization.
In his heart, he actually didn't want to have any contact with this organization. If possible, he didn't want to be involved with this organization in his entire life.
But right now, the only organization that can quickly solve his problem is this one.
Once this organization takes a job, it will definitely complete it.
They dare to kill anyone.
"Brother, do we really want to find them...will they take our job?"
"Yes, they know me."
After the head of the Xiao family spoke, his younger brother on his right stood up and went to do the work for him.
And the other side.
Mingqiao, who was in the academy, was reading in the study with Lingsi.
There was no one in the study.
While Ming Qiao was looking for a book, he whispered to Ling Si, "It would be great if the book master was here. He knows a lot."
If Ming Qiao wants to find out something from a book, he can just ask the book expert and get the answer immediately.
Unfortunately, he didn't bring the book spirit with him when he flew.
"Whatever book you want to read, I'll find it for you."
"I want to read the book of the witch tribe's sacred tree."
"Okay, I'll find it for you."
The two children searched in the study for a long time and actually found several books about the witch clan's sacred tree.
Mingqiao held the book and climbed onto a slightly high chair and sat down.
He lowered his head and read it very seriously.
Among these books about the witch clan's sacred tree, one record attracted Ming Qiao's attention.
This book says that the sacred tree can fulfill all people's wishes.
However, this does not mean it is a good thing.
Ming Qiao saw many records in the record book of the wishes fulfilled by the sacred tree.
xx/xx/xx.
Some people made a wish to the sacred tree, hoping that they would have time to have a good rest.
Three days later, this man was flying with a sword, but unfortunately he lost his balance and crashed into a cliff. He was in a coma for three months before waking up.
xx/xx/xx.
Some people make a wish to the sacred tree, hoping that they can have a huge sum of money and live rich and prosperous for the rest of their lives.
Half a month later, this man was noticed by the eldest son of a very wealthy family. The man gave him a lot of money and even forced him to marry him.
He got his wish and had a huge sum of money, and became rich and powerful from then on.
Unfortunately, this person is a man and likes women.
xx/xx/xx.
Some people make wishes to the sacred tree, hoping to be reunited with their long-lost relatives.
A month later, the man died.
His long-lost relatives were also found to have died in a foreign land a few years ago.
These wish records are very long.
Ming Qiao looked at them one by one, very seriously. The more he looked, the more anxious he became.
I don’t know how long I watched it.
Mingqiao read the entire book of wish records.
After reading it, Ming Qiao’s heart was completely relieved.
"It's over."
Ming Qiao sat on a high chair, tears streaming down his chubby face: "Daddy, uncle, brother, I'm going to be in trouble."
The sacred tree can fulfill wishes, but judging from the sacred tree's past practices -
The path he took to realize his wish was a little scary.
Mingqiao didn't dare to imagine what his father and the others would go through next.
Mingqiao was extremely worried about his father, and Lingsi felt a little helpless seeing him crying.
"Qiao Qiao, what's wrong with you?"
Lingsi had no experience in coaxing children. He looked at Mingqiao crying and didn't know how to comfort her.
Ming Qiao couldn't be coaxed for the time being.
When he thought of his father at this moment, he felt his heart was broken.
The father that Mingqiao was worried about was indeed having a hard time, just as Mingqiao thought.
Wu Ye was taking a medicinal bath when the thunder struck.
The lightning that he caused himself struck him half to death, but did not knock him away.
Wu Ye put a lot of effort into flying up earlier and without being struck to death.
Before flying up, Wu Ye made a lot of preparations.
For example, saving money.
For example, he signed many peace agreements with the Lintian Sect.
With the peace agreement in place, many demons can no longer cause trouble or harm people, and there is less resentment, which is actually not good for this demon.
The practice of magic cultivation does not rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Although it was not very beneficial to him, Wu Ye still did it willingly. He knew that his wife and son wanted him to do this.
Wu Ye was selfless and suffered a lot every day.
At this moment, he was making medicine and thinking about how to attract lightning next time.
Before he could finish his thoughts, lightning suddenly struck his water from the clouds without any warning.
"grass!"
Wu Ye's bathtub was cracked through.
He stood there in confusion, watching the lightning strike one after another, and he ran away: "Stop! Stop for me!"
"Let me put on some fucking clothes first!!!"
"Ahhhh stop chasing me! I'm not ready yet!"
"Don't fucking chop my ass!"
"I'm not flying now! I haven't brought my money yet!!!"
"Stop it now!"
Wu Ye's roar was completely drowned out by the thunder.
He was helpless and furious, and eventually, his rage dissipated between heaven and earth.
Not long after he disappeared.
Ming Qiao was sitting on a chair, and she also jumped down while wiping her tears: "I am panicking now, I want to go find my mother."
The author has something to say:
Baby: I’m scared QAQ
