The 23rd year of the Teng tribe, the second day of the second month.
After more than three years of reform and construction, the development of the Teng tribe is back on track, and the entire tribe is full of vitality.
Jiang Xuan finally had time to rest.
After the New Year’s grand sacrifice, the tribesmen in the tribe and the people from other tribes who came to watch the ceremony were still celebrating and partying.
As night fell, Jiang Xuan took Qingye into the small courtyard in the bamboo forest.
As soon as the door was closed, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but picked up Qingye and strode towards the room.
They hadn't seen each other for the entire winter, and now that they finally met, how could they resist?
However, as soon as he put Qingye on the bed, Qingye pushed him away with a smile, preventing him from taking the next step.
Jiang Xuan asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient today?"
Qingye pointed to her belly and said shyly, "Wu said I'm pregnant."
When Jiang Xuan heard this, his whole body suddenly trembled and even his breathing became rapid.
"You...what did you say?"
Qingye pulled Jiang Xuan's hand over, gently placed it on her belly, and whispered in his ear: "We have a child, Xuan, you will be a father soon."
"I...I'm going to be a father..."
Jiang Xuan squatted down and gently stroked Qingye's obviously bulging belly with trembling hands. He was in a daze, as if he was in the clouds.
Since he traveled through time, although he has his sister Chishao, he is still lonely. No matter how strong the tribe becomes, there is always an invisible and intangible gap between him and this world.
He is like a small boat on the sea. Although he can survive, he can never find an anchor or a root that can give him peace of mind.
However, when he knew that he was going to have a child, that vague barrier suddenly disappeared.
It was as if he had suddenly found his anchor, his true home.
"I...I'm going to have a baby, I'm going to have a baby...I'm going to have a baby, hahahaha..."
At first, Jiang Xuan's voice was very small, as thin as a mosquito, but as the joy in his heart grew stronger, his voice became louder and louder, and later he even stood up and laughed like a madman.
Qingye did not stop him. Instead, she hugged him gently with a little heartache, sharing this rare joy with him.
…
In another small courtyard in the bamboo forest.
Chishao, who was grinding medicine, heard Jiang Xuan's loud laughter. She was stunned at first, and then the smile on her face slowly spread like ripples.
"Xuan is finally going to have a child, that's great."
Chishao thought about it, cleaned all the herbs in the medicine grinder, even washed it several times with water, and after drying them on the kang, he picked up a few new herbs and ground them finely.
This time, she was grinding a pregnancy-maintaining medicine, and the most precious kind.
Chishao even began to think about asking the vine god to bless the child after he was born, so that the child could grow up healthy and happy.
…
Time flies and three months have passed.
On a rainy night on the ninth day of May, with a loud cry, Jiang Xuan's first child was born in the heavy rain.
Chishao delivered the baby personally, baptized the baby herself, then wrapped the baby in an extremely soft spider silk quilt and deerskin, and carried the baby to the bed to show Qingye and Jiang Xuan.
Chishao said with a smile: "Qingye, Xuan, congratulations, it's a boy, give him a name."
Qingye looked at the child lovingly, and after a while he said to Jiang Xuan: "Xuan, I don't know how to name the child, you choose one."
Jiang Xuan nodded, he pondered for a moment, and said: "He was born in the rainy season, and has a connection with water. Water can nourish all things and benefit all living beings, so let's call him Ze."
Qingye nodded and said, "Ze, what a good name. It reminds me of our experience in Heishuize. Very good, let's call him Ze."
The two reached a consensus, smiled at each other, and decided on the name of their first child.
Jiang Xuan took the child from Chishao's hands. He felt both happy and nervous. His hands were shaking because the child was so small. He was afraid that his strength would be too great and he would hurt the child.
Chishao bowed in the direction of the divine vine and begged, "This child is the hope for the future of our vine tribe. Please bless the vine god."
"good……"
The vine god readily agreed to Chishao's request. In the heavy rain, a tender emerald green vine fell from the sky, then crawled into the house through the window and hovered above the child's forehead.
“Tick…”
A drop of green divine liquid fell on the child's forehead and quickly turned into a totem pattern of the Vine Tribe, flashing green light and releasing a vigorous breath of life.
The child who had fallen asleep suddenly opened his eyes and a bright smile appeared on his face. He stretched out his two cute little hands and wanted to touch the sacred vine.
The divine vine seemed to be quite fond of the child. The green vines became extremely soft and allowed the child to play for a while before retracting them.
The three of them said in unison: "Thank you for the blessing of the divine vine."
After the divine vine retreated, Chishao smiled and said to Jiang Xuan and Qingye: "With the blessing of the vine god, no matter what dangers the child encounters in the future, he will be able to survive safely and grow up healthily."
Jiang Xuan and Qingye smiled at each other, and then thanked Chishao one after another.
The next day, the news of Jiang Xuan's child's birth spread quickly throughout the entire Teng Tribe, and even the subordinate tribes such as the Mountain Turtle Tribe and the Ant Tribe knew about it.
Soon, countless gifts flew into Jiang Xuan's courtyard like snowflakes and piled up like a mountain.
The purple eagle Tangyuan flew over and caught a megalodon to congratulate the birth of its little master.
The Black Wind Rhino Crescent went deep into the mountains and forests and found a magical plant for his little master that could give him special powers after taking it.
As for Uncaria rhynchophylla, Gnaphalium sutchuenensis, Arisaema confusa, Nepeta tenuifolia, Olea cochinchinensis, and Windgrass, they each presented the most generous gifts they could afford.
Even the old witch gave Jiang Xuan's child a beast-hair brush that he had made himself.
The child named "Ze" grew up day by day in the midst of countless love and became a member of the Teng tribe.
However, Aoba did not stay in the Fuji tribe forever.
When the child was one year old, Qingye entrusted the child to the care of Chishao and others, then gritted his teeth and left the Teng Tribe, returning to the Crocodile Tribe to become the leader of the travel team.
She is a woman with a strong personality and clear goals. Although she is reluctant to leave her child and loves her child very much, she has more important things to do: that is to fulfill her original promise and completely change the Crocodile Tribe! This is her obsession.
In order to achieve this goal, she can only sacrifice some of the time she spends with her children and try her best to gain more support.
Some things are just like that, you can never have both.
If you want to get something, you must give up something.
…
Peaceful days always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another three years have passed.
When the child Ze was three years old, he gradually began to show his extraordinary qualities.
Under Chishao's instruction, Ze, who was only three years old, learned a lot of herbal knowledge and even some witch language. Even the old witch was shocked by his talent.
However, while showing a strong talent for learning, his mischief is also a headache.
When he was just three years old, he would often secretly ride on birds of prey, and sometimes even on giant dragonflies, which often made Jiang Xuan so angry that his veins would jump and he would want to tie him up and beat him up.
In order to prevent him from learning bad things and getting into danger, Jiang Xuan had to spend a lot of time teaching and watching over him.
Although it was very tiring, Jiang Xuan also gained a lot of joy and unforgettable memories in the process.
This child gradually became his most stable anchor in this world. (End of this chapter)
