Chapter 201 Meng Po (9)
Chapter 201 Meng Po (9)
Yue Niang jumped into the river without thinking.
I completely forgot the advice not to meddle in other people's affairs.
She swam over this side and just happened to avoid being seen.
Those people must have done something wrong and were afraid of being discovered. Or maybe they thought there was no chance of the child surviving.
He pushed the person away and left quickly.
Yue Niang didn't use any magic.
Since the underworld doesn't care about the affairs of the living world, it wouldn't be considered a violation of the rules if she didn't use it.
If a mortal saw this scene, he would also choose to save people first.
She was just doing what she had to do.
When I swam over, the child had already sunk to the bottom of the river.
These people are so evil.
There is no chance that a child that young could survive even if he wasn't tied with stones.
She really couldn't drag both the person and the stone up with her own strength.
The only way was to untie him quickly at the bottom of the river.
I just don't know how they tied it and I can't untie it.
Yue Niang's hands were too weak, so she tried to bite it open with her teeth.
The rough hemp rope rubbed her lips and blood spread in the water.
Yue Niang didn't notice that the child's eyes opened a little.
Finally, the rope broke, and she quickly picked up the child and swam upstream to reach the shore.
"call--"
I almost became Meng Po who was suffocated to death. That was truly unprecedented.
After adjusting his breathing, he looked at the child again.
Eyes closed, breathing shallow.
I patted the little face, but still no response.
There must be water in the river, and we need to force it out quickly.
I pressed the child's abdomen hard and finally squeezed out a lot of water.
But she has no magic power, she is just an ordinary person, and she doesn't know medicine. The child needs special treatment.
only……
Yue Niang covered her heart, which had been aching since she went into the river. It hurt even more now.
It must be time for this body to die.
It's really terrible.
It couldn't be earlier or later, but he had to choose this time to die.
But what should this child do?
If you leave it here like this, it won't survive the night.
After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and carried him on his back.
Just hold on a little longer and everything will be fine.
When they arrived outside Wang Qingyan's courtyard, Yue Niang's face had turned pale, her limbs were stiff, and she looked like a dead person.
"Bang bang bang-"
Li Lu, please don’t fall into a deep sleep.
Fortunately, the door was opened after a while.
"Yue Niang?!"
Li Lu looked at Yue Niang who was lying at the door. She was only breathing out but not breathing in.
"What’s wrong with you!"
Yue Niang finally waited for someone to come and pointed at the child next to her, "You, go take him to see a doctor."
"Then what are you going to do!"
Li Lu then saw a child lying outside the wooden door next to her.
Also unconscious.
"Don't worry about me, I should have left."
She felt that this time in the human world, she seemed to be quite busy and had never stopped.
He's still causing trouble for himself before leaving.
"Li Lu, I'm glad to meet you. I'm leaving now. Don't worry about me."
She grabbed his sleeve and said, "Go take him to see a doctor. There's no time to waste."
"Go, go quickly!"
She used her last bit of strength to drive him away.
Li Lu had no choice but to carry the child on his back and run out.
He ran a few steps and looked back.
She lay at the door, motionless, as if she had no breath left.
Without stopping, he took his hand out to wipe away his tears.
He hadn't gone to bed yet, thinking about waiting for her to come back and say goodbye to her in person.
When he heard the voice, he rushed out, thinking that she was also worried about him.
Unexpectedly, I didn’t make it in time in the end.
Yue Niang looked at their departing backs and finally moved her lips.
"goodbye."
When Yue Niang came to her senses again, it was already dark.
Ah, I'm back again.
"Mother Yue, you are really abusing your body."
It's the voice of the tree spirit.
It seemed that he knew what she had done in the human world.
"Did anyone from above blame me?"
She was more concerned about this, and if there was a punishment, she would accept it.
"No."
The tree spirit spoke in a bad tone, not expecting her to be so reckless.
"Since you didn't use your spiritual power and performed your duties conscientiously, I will forgive you for this mistake."
That is not bad.
Yue Niang is not really kind-hearted and selfless. If she was charged with something because of this incident, it would be embarrassing.
"It's just that the child's life should have ended last night."
Seeing the relief on her face, the tree spirit couldn't help but explain to her the seriousness of the matter in detail.
"What should I do?"
She saved the child, she couldn't let him die again.
"What can I do? My life span is over, so I'll pay with my fate."
"What do you mean?"
She had a bad guess in her mind, but she didn't want it to happen to the child whom she had pulled back from the hands of death with her own hands.
"You wouldn't know?"
Somehow, the tree spirit's voice sounded somewhat evil to her ears.
It was as if there was a kind of frustration that the fate could not be changed.
"If he was destined to have a short but safe life, you have interfered with his fate."
"When you live long enough, you naturally have to live a worse life to balance your destiny."
The situation was critical at the time and she really didn't think about it.
“How bad?”
"I don't know."
The tree spirit answered simply, "It depends on how long he can live. The longer he lives, the greater the price he will pay."
"Then how did you know these things?"
Yue Niang asked back, saying that since she came back, she seemed to have been led by the tree spirit.
Not that he would hurt her, it was just weird.
First, he did not go to the human world with her, and second, he did not have the ability to move around.
How can a tree spirit that doesn’t even have freedom know so much?
"Are you doubting me?"
The tree spirit was not asking her, but expressing his dissatisfaction.
"I'm just concerned about you," his tone changed again, a little indifferent, "that child has nothing to do with me."
"Whether he is dead or alive, whether he is living a good life or not, I don't care at all."
Yue Niang also felt a little embarrassed as they had been together for so long.
They were old friends, so he should be thinking about her.
When you are concerned, you may feel confused and your tone may be a little anxious.
And as they had talked about before, he wasn't really just a tree spirit.
"Well, I didn't think before I spoke, so don't take it to heart."
After so many years, she couldn't remember what happened in the past. Anyway, he was the only one she had apologized to in the past five hundred years, and she was still not used to it.
"how come."
The tree spirit regained its clear and gentle voice like a gurgling stream.
"How can I be qualified..."
The last sentence was too soft for Yue Niang to hear clearly, and he himself became dazed.
"what?"
She wanted to ask what he said.
"Mrs. Mengpo."
A woman's voice interrupted.
"I'm here to bring you something."
It’s Wang Qingyan.
I almost forgot about her.
She still owes me three tears of bitterness.
Yue Niang brought over the other tripod that she had placed next to the green tripod.
Some Forgotten Water was injected into it.
"Just pour it in here."
Her Meng Po soup is so simple and crude.
All the ingredients are taken in front of everyone, in their original state.
Children and old men are not deceived!
