Chapter 159: Welcome Back to Qingwu Mountain
Even though Shen Wangshu had told Chen Ting that dragon eggs were very hardy and had never caused her any trouble except that they were edible, Chen Ting still took it very seriously. After returning from suppressing the bandits, he refused to go anywhere and wished he could always stay by his wife's side. He was very clingy and would say some silly words to her belly from time to time.
During the five months of pregnancy, Shen Wangshu's appearance did not seem to have changed at all, even the bulge of her belly was barely noticeable. Chen Ting often stared at her smooth and white belly, wondering if there was really an egg inside.
Almost every night I have to use the dragon clan's special perception to confirm the existence of the cub before I can sleep peacefully.
Moreover, after Shen Wangshu became pregnant, her territorial consciousness became more serious than ever before. In the entire general's mansion, except for Zhang Dai and Zhong Lingxiu in the west wing, and Shen Wangshu's personal maids, everyone else was moved to another house. Even the remaining people were not allowed to get close to the main house and could only live in the outermost house of the general's mansion.
What? Who will serve the general's wife if there are no servants?
Of course it was Chen Ting himself. He was happy to do everything by himself. He even washed his wife's panties which were particularly easy to get dirty (wet) due to pregnancy. He also learned the great skill of cooking without any instruction. How to feed the dragon eggs in his belly was an inheritance in his soul. No one could raise dragon eggs better than him.
Shen Wangshu was carefully fed by Chen Ting for five months. The closer she got to giving birth, the more radiant she looked. She looked like a round and smooth piece of jade, and even her hair was glowing.
So when the day of delivery came, Zhong Lingxiu, who hadn't seen her senior sister for almost half a year, felt so dazzled that she could hardly open her eyes when she saw Shen Wangshu again.
Zhang Dai had already arranged the delivery room in advance. In order to deal with various accidents, he made several preparations early on. To ensure the safety of mother and child, Chen Ting had to accompany the delivery throughout the process, with Zhong Lingxiu helping.
After all, Shen Wangshu was still a human pregnant woman, and the process was followed according to humans. As a result, in the carefully decorated delivery room, under the nervous gaze of the last disciple of the traditional Chinese medicine master, the only remaining dragon in the world, and a top student in the Department of Pharmacy who had published several SCI papers at a young age, Shen Wangshu laid a golden dragon egg without even shouting.
It was slightly larger than a goose egg, and rolled onto the mat obediently. None of the extra utensils were used. When the room was quiet, Shen Wangshu sat up and took a look puzzledly: "I feel like I gave birth."
The others then reacted, some were wiping the eggs, some were looking at the eggs... There was nothing to clean up, and even the specially made waterproof mat was not used.
"Does senior sister still need to observe confinement after childbirth?" Zhong Lingxiu asked a soul-searching question, and at the same time she was extremely envious: "When will humans be able to mutate and lay eggs? This will save us a lot of suffering!"
"Madam, how do you feel? Are you uncomfortable? Are you hungry, thirsty, or in pain?" Chen Ting had already rushed over in a hurry, without even looking at the dragon egg that he had been thinking about all the time.
He had an extremely serious expression on his face when he was about to enter the delivery room. After entering, he stood in the corner alone, afraid of affecting the two doctors' operation. He looked like he was about to cry, but now he finally couldn't help it. He looked more excited than Shen Wangshu, the parturient. He cried and carefully checked her body: "Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere, huh?"
Shen Wangshu didn't feel any discomfort and could even run around.
She rescued the dragon egg from the hands of two senior brothers and sisters who were impatient and had already started studying it under the light. She couldn't hold the dragon egg with one hand, so she had to hold it with both hands. It was warm and the eggshell was not very hard yet. She could feel the little heartbeat underneath the eggshell.
This little golden egg is connected to his blood, which is a very strange feeling. Shen Wangshu holds it in his hands, and the corners of his lips curl up unconsciously, and his eyes become gentle.
It was so magical, she really laid a dragon egg, a little dragon cub.
“Chen Ting, look, a dragon egg!” Shen Wangshu held the egg in front of Chen Ting like he was offering a treasure: “The elders in Dragon Valley said that I gave birth to it and you hatched it. In the future, you will also take it hunting and teach it how to survive and become a human.”
The man finally wiped away his tears, took the egg and nodded, his voice hoarse: "Thank you for your hard work, Madam, leave the future to me."
"What a success." Shen Wangshu was so angry that he laughed: "Why are you crying like this?"
Chen Ting didn't know why he was crying like this. It was probably because there was a little thing with his blood in this world, and the most important wife. He finally felt that he had a home. The loneliest and most wandering dragon in the world finally had his own place.
After the dragon eggs are born, we must go to Qingwu Mountain as soon as possible to hatch and raise them.
At the mainland exchange conference, the new monarch of the Great Zhou Dynasty demonstrated to all countries the strength and prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty, especially a series of hot weapons that far exceeded the technological level of other countries on the mainland. After witnessing the power of black gunpowder, the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty had been pacified for a long time, and the young master Chen Hao also enrolled in the Imperial Academy to study with the best teacher in the whole Great Zhou, inheriting his brother's mantle.
Shen Wangshu then went to the palace in person and told the queen that she and Chen Ting were going to retire for a while to raise their children. Although Shen Xihe didn't want her to leave at first, she couldn't persuade her in the end and waved her hand to agree.
Zhang Dai and Zhong Lingxiu were unable to go to Qingwu Mountain together, so they could only separate the system light ball and give it to Shen Wangshu to take away, allowing her to go to Qingwu Mountain to recharge.
Xuemei Zhong’s system ball really looked nothing special except that it glowed, so Shen Wangshu put it in the same cradle as the dragon egg and hid it in the black dragon’s mouth all the way to Qingwu Mountain.
It was just as the sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun on the sea level was like golden sprinkles. A delicate and pretty little human was sitting on the back of a huge black monster. With a flap of its wings that covered the sky and the sun, it entered the secret realm of Qingwu Mountain that no one in the world could reach.
Once he arrived in the country, all of Chen Ting's lost memories from childhood were restored.
The little corner that stores memories, the little human that appeared in the dark dragon valley...
"...Do you still recognize me, Chen Fuguang?"
"I have to go now. See you next time, Fu Guang."
"Baby, why are you so cute..."
"I'll teach you how to cook and build a house!"
"...Don't hurt yourself again. Wait for me to help you shed your scales next time."
"......"
Scenes emerged from the depths of his memory. The girl's sweet words passed by his ears. His heart felt numb and soft. The black dragon subconsciously covered his heart, and a hideous black scale shining with golden light grew silently.
Chen Ting felt that he was complete now.
He could freely control his own strength and form, no longer needed any restraints, no more ridiculous three days of the month.
But the return of power is not the most important thing. The man immediately hugged the smiling little human into his arms: "Madam..."
"It turns out that we knew each other so long ago..."
Shen Wangshu hugged him back tightly and said softly, "Welcome back, Fu Guang."
