Chapter 157
Ming Qiao knocked on the door of the secret room for a long time but got no response.
"He may not be awake yet."
You Qing was afraid that Ming Qiao's hands would hurt from the knocks, so he raised his hand and held his chubby little hand: "Can this secret room be opened from the outside?"
"Yes."
Ming Qiao looked back and saw that there was no servant following him.
He observed carefully again, and after making sure that there was no one there, he began to look for the mechanism to enter the secret room.
soon.
Ming Qiao found the mechanism: "Brother, it's here."
The traps in the Demon Palace were notoriously terrifying. It was said that these traps were extremely dangerous and could crush anyone who strayed into them to pieces in an instant.
Ming Qiao touched the mechanism that was rumored to be extremely terrifying by the outside world with her little hand and was not afraid at all.
There is a group of stone protrusions on the mechanism.
Ming Qiao looked at the bulges, thought for a few seconds, and then pressed on them.
You Qing: “…”
You Qing: "Qiao Qiao, you pressed so quickly, did you know in advance that you could get in this way?"
Ming Qiao shook his head bluntly.
He looked at You Qing and blinked innocently: "I don't know, I just pressed it randomly. There are ten small stones on it that can be pressed."
"I pressed my birthday."
Ming Qiao's audacity frightened You Qing so much that his whole body suddenly tensed up.
He grabbed Mingqiao's wrist, his eyes full of vigilance towards the secret room door.
He was preparing to take Mingqiao away at any time.
Time passes by second by second.
You Qing was tense all over and didn't wait for any trap to attack.
The door to the secret room in front of them opened with a bang, and it was opened very safely.
Ming Qiao raised her little face and curved her eyes: "It really is my birthday!"
Just now, he suddenly thought that maybe pressing his birthday would be useful, but he didn't expect that he could really open it by doing so.
Entered the secret room.
Ming Qiao didn't bother to look at the furnishings in the secret room. He ran straight inside with his short legs.
He has only one goal...
Go see Zhu Yi!
"Godfather!"
Ming Qiao had called Zhu Yi "godfather" before. This time when he came back, he called him that again.
He called godfather and in the innermost part of the secret room, he actually saw Zhu Yi lying on the cold jade bed.
Zhu Yi's face was pale, and his deep facial features looked more three-dimensional now that he had lost weight. There was still a little blood at the corner of his lips.
Ming Qiao put Yiyi and Erer down, then spread a blanket on the ground and let Yiyi and Erer play by themselves.
After he finished playing the 1122, he tiptoed and climbed onto the cold jade bed.
The cold jade bed is a little cold.
Ming Qiao sat on the bed and pushed Zhu Yi with her little hand: "Wake up."
He called out several times but failed to wake Zhu Yi up.
Just as You Qing was pondering whether or not to find a medical practitioner, Ming Qiao lowered his head and took out the medicine bottle from the storage ring.
He fed Zhu Yi the elixir he brought back from Tianjun Realm.
The value of these medicines in the Tianjun Realm is extremely high. If they were placed in the Cangxuan Continent and people knew about it, they would probably arouse a lot of covetousness.
Ming Qiao fed all these precious medicines into Zhu Yi's mouth.
These medicines are used to treat both external injuries and internal injuries.
Medication alone was not enough. Ming Qiao looked at the two babies crawling on the ground and asked You Qing to carry them to Zhu Yi.
"One, one, two, two, can you wake him up?"
One hundred and twenty-two: "..."
The two babies tilted their heads back and opened their mouths.
Next second.
They clenched their fleshy fists and tried to wake Zhu Yi up by beating him.
Ming Qiao: “!”
Ming Qiao: "That's not the way to yell! He's injured, you can't hit him."
With Mingqiao's obstruction, the two babies put away their fists.
They blinked at their eldest brother, then opened their fists and touched Zhu Yi's forehead with their palms.
A pale green light flickers.
The two babies kept their palms pressed against Zhu Yi for a long time.
"call."
Er Er withdrew his little hand, and for the first time, a tired expression appeared on his always energetic face.
Yi Yi was more obviously tired.
He rubbed his eyes and leaned his little body into Mingqiao's arms.
Mingqiao patted him and let him sleep.
Both babies were tired and sleepy. Ming Qiao kissed them one by one with loving care, then put them aside to let them rest.
"Brother, will he wake up now?"
"have no idea."
You Qing is not a medical practitioner, so he cannot be sure of Zhu Yi’s actual physical condition.
He could only stay with Mingqiao and guard together.
Time passes by little by little.
As Mingqiao held her little face in her hands and stared at her, Zhu Yi, who had originally shown no signs of waking up, suddenly trembled her long eyelashes.
"Move, move!"
Ming Qiao did not miss this tiny detail.
He widened his eyes and continued to look at Zhu Yi.
Zhu Yi's eyelashes trembled, and then his eyelids moved as well.
Mingqiao's breathing became lighter.
A few seconds later, a hoarse cough came from Zhu Yi's mouth.
Ming Qiao's eyes lit up, he took some water and dripped it into Zhu Yi's mouth.
With the water, Zhu Yi's cough gradually stopped.
His vision gradually became clear.
Mingqiao put her little face close to him and looked at him without blinking.
Zhu Yi: “…”
Zhu Yi's eyes were calm, without any excitement at all.
Ming Qiao: “?”
Ming Qiao's grinning little mouth could no longer be opened under Zhu Yi's indifferent gaze.
He continued to stare at Zhu Yi.
Zhu Yi, who was being stared at by him, supported herself on the cold jade bed and was about to get up.
The moment he stood up, Zhu Yi sat up straight.
He didn't avoid Ming Qiao at all.
Standing up so straight, Zhu Yi's head hit Ming Qiao.
Mingqiao's little head leaned forward and was hit hard.
He pursed his lips and covered his hurt head.
"pain."
His eyes were red with grievance.
Zhu Yi: “…”
Zhu Yi suddenly froze.
He stared blankly at Ming Qiao who was holding his head and complaining about pain. The calm expression on Jun's face seemed to slowly crack.
After a long while, he whispered in disbelief: "Qiao Qiao?"
Ming Qiao: “?”
Ming Qiao was confused by Zhu Yi's reaction.
He pouted and complained to Zhu Yi: "It's me! Don't you want to see me? I'm so happy to see you, but you're not happy at all!"
Ming Qiao felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke, and in the end, his aggrieved feeling turned into anger.
He put down his hands that were covering his head, and was about to climb down from the bed, ignoring Zhu Yi.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhu Yi hugged him as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"Qiao Qiao, it's really you."
Zhu Yi had clearly just woken up from a coma, but she didn't look weak at all.
He held Mingqiao in his arms, and used so much force with his arms that Mingqiao felt a little nervous.
"I thought it was an illusion."
“I keep seeing these visions…”
Zhu Yi murmured, his thin lips pressed against Ming Qiao's chubby face. His low and hoarse voice and words made Ming Qiao, who was so angry, calm down.
"It's not an illusion, I'm the real Qiao Qiao."
Mingqiao didn't know what happened to Zhu Yi during these days.
But he could sense that Zhu Yi's condition was definitely not good.
He raised his little hands and hugged Zhu Yi back.
The big and the small hugged each other for a long time before Zhu Yi was willing to let go.
He looked down at the cub whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and examined him carefully.
"I've lost weight."
He asked, "No one takes care of you?"
You Qing, who was standing next to him, had been silent and didn't interrupt, but after hearing this, he had to speak up: "I am taking care of him."
"Also, Qiao Qiao weighed herself a few days ago and gained two pounds."
Ming Qiao listened to the two people talking about his weight without interrupting. Instead, he lowered his head and touched the soft flesh on his body.
He seemed to be in deep thought.
Do you look better when you are thin or a little fatter?
Before Ming Qiao could come up with a conclusion, Zhu Yi picked him up again.
Zhu Yi also jumped down from the cold jade bed.
He held Mingqiao's chubby little butt steadily and stood on the ground. His breathing was much calmer than before.
"This bed is cold, the child can't stay here for long. Come on, let's go outside."
"Um!"
Ming Qiao nodded heavily. Although the secret room looked nice, it had no sunlight and was not suitable for children to stay in for long.
Zhu Yi was holding Ming Qiao, and after taking only two steps, he discovered Yiyi Erer sleeping.
Ming Qiao also pointed at the two babies and introduced them, "These are my uncle's babies. They are my younger brothers and sisters. You have to take them with you!"
"good."
Zhu Yi asked You Qing to take the two babies with him.
Although the two babies are somewhat similar to Mingqiao, their temperaments are nothing like Mingqiao.
Zhu Yi had Mingqiao in her arms and didn’t pay much attention to the two babies.
There is no shortage of people in the Demon Palace.
Zhu Yi assigned someone who was specialized in taking care of babies to look after the two babies.
The two babies don't have to stay close to their big brother all the time. They just want to make sure that he is near them and they can find him at any time, so that they won't make trouble.
The babies were taken to be cared for.
Ming Qiao asked Zhu Yi attentively: "How did you get injured?"
Zhu Yi was lying on the soft couch in the Demon Palace. He looked at the cub sitting next to him, and his mood was visibly improving.
He pinched the baby's chubby face, and his face no longer had the paleness it had in the secret room.
He raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Qiao Qiao is so worried about my injury? When I was unconscious, did our Qiao Qiao cry?"
Zhu Yi's smiling look made the boy who was questioning her seriously unhappy.
"Please speak properly!"
Ming Qiao took away the hand that was pinching his chubby face and said in a serious voice, "There are many rumors about the reasons why you were injured. Tell me, who hurt you?"
Zhu Yi looked at the serious boy, but he himself was still not serious.
He asked back, "Qiao Qiao wants to know the murderer so much, is it because you want to avenge your godfather?"
Ming Qiao nodded without hesitation.
Zhu Yi: “…”
Zhu Yi was obviously stunned.
After he was stunned for a moment, his smile got bigger: "You even know how to avenge me. Godfather's love for you is not in vain."
"You should name the murderer first."
Ming Qiao listened to him talking around for a long time but still couldn't reveal the murderer, and she became very anxious.
"Don't say anything else. Just tell me who the murderer is and where he is!"
Ming Qiao emphasized this point, and then he quickly added: "If you say anything else, I'm leaving!"
Under Ming Qiao's urging and threats, Zhu Yi made a gesture of helpless surrender.
"Okay, I'll tell you."
Zhu Yi made a frank confession: "I was actually negligent this time. Some demons who were dissatisfied with me gathered together and wanted to usurp my throne. I knew about this, but I never took it seriously."
"I didn't expect that they were so lucky and almost succeeded."
As Zhu Yi spoke, he pinched Ming Qiao's chubby face with his big hands again.
"Don't worry, I killed them all before I passed out."
"Now, Qiao Qiao doesn't have to avenge me."
Zhu Yi briefly explained the matter and turned the topic back to Ming Qiao himself.
"Qiao Qiao, how long can you stay here this time?"
"have no idea."
Ming Qiao followed up and answered Zhu Yi's question.
After he answered, he still felt strange in his heart.
The murderer that Zhu Yi mentioned just now sounded fine, but he somehow felt uneasy.
Zhu Yi has been taking care of the affairs of the demon world for a long, long time.
When his father was the Demon Lord, Zhu Yi was in charge of the affairs of the demon world.
He has been in charge for so many years, could such negligence really occur?
"Stay here for a while."
Zhu Yi seemed not to notice the distraction on Ming Qiao's face. He said to himself, "I prepared a lot of toys for you."
"There are also many little things in the backyard, including your favorite cat. Do you want to go and see them?"
"think!"
Zhu Yi knew that Mingqiao liked furry animals.
As soon as he heard that there was Mimi in the backyard, he couldn't sit still anymore.
"I want to go and see!"
"Okay, I'll take you to see it."
The big and the small went to the backyard to see Mimi, and You Qing followed them silently.
Looking at Zhu Yi's figure in front of him, You Qing raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose.
He seemed to be confirming his sense of smell.
He smelled a strange scent from Zhu Yi.
"What color are your tits?"
"There are many cats in all colors. What's your favorite color?"
“I like them all!”
The two people, one big and one small, in front were still talking happily.
You Qing's eyes darkened, and without saying anything, he just quickened his pace and chased after him.
The huge Demon Palace has not changed much compared to what I saw when I came back last time.
All the changes here are to add some things that are suitable for children to play with, as well as some bright flowers and plants.
Ming Qiao is having a lot of fun here.
"This breast looks like the breast I had before."
Mingqiao is very fond of a cat in the backyard.
He held the soft breast in his arms, unwilling to let go.
Zhu Yi stood beside him and played with Mimi together with him.
This scene, just looking at the picture, is beautiful and warm.
From day to night.
Ming Qiao never left Zhu Yi's sight.
While playing, the two babies would come and look at their older brother. After they had looked at their older brother, they would let others hold them and play with them without worry.
After playing until late at night, the two babies were so tired that they fell into a sound sleep in their cribs.
Ming Qiao didn't sleep in the small bed, he slept in Zhu Yi's big bed.
Before going to bed, Ming Qiao had his body checked by the doctor called by Zhu Yi.
His little body was taken care of by a group of adults, and although he is still not fully healthy, he is now a little more stable.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would probably continue to grow like other children.
"Godfather, I also wrote you a letter. Have you read it?"
“I have.”
Zhu Yi replied: "I have seen all the previous letters."
"It's good to see it."
Mingqiao wrote to me not to ask for a reply.
He just wanted Zhu Yi to know his situation through the letter.
It's not that he is narcissistic, but he knows clearly in his heart——
I wish Yi Ke likes him.
If he didn't write to Zhu Yi and let Zhu Yi know about his situation, Zhu Yi would worry about him.
"Qiao Qiao, do you like this place or Tianjun Realm?"
Zhu Yi poked the dimple on Mingqiao's little hand and asked in a casual tone.
Ming Qiao didn't even think about it and replied, "I like them all."
“I like any place where everyone is.”
To be precise, Mingqiao doesn't like to be attached to any particular world, but to the place where his parents are.
"You mean you like everything... you like this place too?"
"Yeah! I like it."
Ming Qiao raised her little face and sweetly explained the reason: "You live here, so I like it here."
The reason why Ming Qiao was willing to stay in the Demon Realm this time was Zhu Yi.
If Zhu Yi hadn't been here, he wouldn't have come at all.
Ming Qiao's words made Zhu Yi's eyes darken.
He lowered his head and kissed Mingqiao's chubby little face.
"Our Qiao Qiao, how come you are so well behaved?"
Ming Qiao had pretended to be a good boy in front of Zhu Yi before, but later, he stopped pretending in front of Zhu Yi.
He knew that Zhu Yi truly loved him and wanted to support him.
The night is getting darker.
Mingqiao opened his eyes and didn't go to sleep yet.
Zhu Yi found it a little strange that he was not sleeping: "Aren't you sleepy yet?"
Ming Qiao used to love sleeping. Once he touched the bed, he would fall asleep in no time.
Zhu Yi was a little surprised that he could endure so well at the moment.
"I, I don't want to sleep."
Mingqiao shook his head. It wasn’t that he wasn’t sleepy, but that he didn’t want to sleep.
"What happened? Tell me."
Zhu Yi saw that something was wrong with the little guy, so he massaged his palms and asked patiently.
Under Zhu Yi's patient questioning, Ming Qiao hesitantly told the reason.
"I can't sleep well."
Ming Qiao has not been able to sleep well since he killed many people in the primitive continent.
No, it should be said that he hardly slept at all.
"I keep having nightmares."
Ming Qiao was also very frustrated when talking about sleeping: "I ate candy to sleep, but the dreams were still terrible."
In the childish thinking of children, eating candy and sleeping will help them have a sweet dream.
In order to avoid nightmares and have a sweet dream, Mingqiao secretly ate candy before going to bed.
But this trick didn't work.
After stealing candies several times in a row, Ming Qiao was caught by You Qing.
You Qing stopped him from doing this.
"Don't eat sweets before going to bed. It's bad for your teeth."
Zhu Yi first said the same thing as You Qing, and then he gently coaxed Ming Qiao: "If you don't want to have a nightmare, leave it to me."
"I promise, you won't have nightmares soon."
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao didn't believe it.
He hung his head and said without confidence: "The head uncle and the elders can't stop me from having nightmares."
"They can't help it, but I do."
Zhu Yi said, and then asked Ming Qiao: "Qiao Qiao, have you heard of the nightmare tapir?"
Ming Qiao was stunned.
Nightmare tapir.
He heard Shushu tell him: "Dream tapirs can eat bad dreams."
"Yes, it's the nightmare tapir that eats nightmares."
When Zhu Yi saw Ming Qiao knew this, he said softly, "With Meng Mo here, Qiao Qiao can just have good dreams from now on."
Ming Qiao: “!”
Ming Qiao was happy at first, but then his little head calmed down again.
Because he remembered that Shushu had told him: "The dream tapir has long been gone. Shushu said that the dream tapir is extinct."
The dream tapir can enter people's dreams and see many things.
They have the ability to see into people's dreams, but other than that, they have no other abilities.
They don't even have the military power to defend themselves.
This race disappeared many years ago.
"Even if it's extinct, I will find one for Qiao Qiao."
Zhu Yi hugged Mingqiao's little body and patted his back gently: "Then Qiaoqiao will be able to sleep well every day."
Sleep well.
These four words made Ming Qiao yearn for it, but he still didn't have too many expectations in his heart.
"Okay, Qiao Qiao, close your eyes and take a rest."
Zhu Yi coaxed the baby until the baby in his arms closed his eyes and his breathing relaxed, then he stood up.
Mingqiao had just fallen asleep.
Normally, he wouldn't have nightmares when he just fell asleep.
But it will be soon.
Zhu Yi looked at his little face and without wasting too much time, turned and left.
The secret room is in the bedroom.
Zhu Yi walked into the secret room again.
After he went in, he sealed the secret room to prevent Ming Qiao from coming in again.
The entire secret room was hidden again.
Zhu Yi looked at the cold jade bed where he had slept before. He walked towards it step by step. As he approached, he grasped a dagger in his right hand.
The sharp dagger flashed coldly in the dark secret room.
Zhu Yi held the dagger and stabbed it into his heart.
He drew out his own heart's blood.
There were ancient, awkward sentences that seemed to be some kind of spell, uttered one by one from his mouth.
This secret room, which looked normal during the day, looked like an altar for sacrifice at this moment.
Zhu Yi stayed here until midnight.
In the second half of the night, another voice was heard in the secret room, talking to Zhu Yi.
These sounds, and the things that happened in the secret room...
Mingqiao, who was sitting on the big bed, knew nothing about it.
"Look at me, look at me...are you still going to kill me?"
A hideous corpse stood up tremblingly and squeezed in front of Ming Qiao's eyes in his dream.
Ming Qiao was so shocked by these frightening scenes that her legs went weak even though she wanted to run.
He closed his eyes and couldn't help crying twice.
"Okay, stop crying."
After he cried a few times, a familiar low and hoarse voice coaxed him.
Ming Qiao could vaguely tell that it was Zhu Yi's voice.
He subconsciously stretched out his little hand, wanting to grab Zhu Yi.
Zhu Yi let him grab her hand.
The big hand was holding the small hand. Suddenly, Ming Qiao in the dream saw a strange little ball with white light all over its body, like a little rabbit, but with wings.
This little white ball has a pair of round black eyes.
It looks very cute.
Ming Qiao stared at it without blinking, wanting to reach out and touch it.
The little white ball was not allowed to be touched.
It flapped its wings, opened its mouth, and swallowed everything that scared Mingqiao.
It finished eating and started vomiting.
It spits out beautiful flowers, toys...
It is trying hard to decorate Mingqiao's dream.
Ming Qiao: “…”
Ming Qiao looked even more stunned.
Thanks to Xiaobai Tuanzi's efforts, Mingqiao on the bed stopped crying.
Zhu Yi watched all this quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The author has something to say:
