Chapter 142: The sixth baby is born, "Am I the only calabash baby?"
Shi Batian's home in Xinghun Village.
In the corner of the ruins, a small blue gourd hangs on a short gourd vine.
The breeze blew gently, rustling, the vines swayed slightly, and the gourds also swayed gently, making a subtle "creaking" sound, as if they were telling the loneliness of no one listening.
This little gourd finally grew up a little.
It was only with a little watering and fertilization from those little birds that it managed to survive and grow to such a big size.
This little gourd is the lonely six baby.
"I don't know how many days have passed. Why haven't I grown up yet? Why am I always so low in energy?"
"I don't know what happened to Seventh Sister. I wonder if she is suffering in the dungeon of Wuhun Palace. I wonder if my brother and the others are all as thin as bamboo poles."
"I don't know where dad went, and he never came back."
The little blue gourd was talking to himself, his tone full of worry and longing.
It longs to grow up as soon as possible and find its relatives, especially the most favored seventh sister. It is worried that she will be tortured in Wuhun Palace.
At the same time, it also misses its other brothers, fearing that they will become emaciated due to malnutrition.
Little did he know that now he had become the thinnest one among the seven gourd babies, and even the seven babies were a little older than him.
However, it is also confused and uneasy about the whereabouts of its father. These emotions are intertwined, making Xiao Hulu's heart full of anxiety and expectation.
Days passed, and it still didn't wait for its father to come home. The little blue gourd was extremely sad.
It murmured: Why hasn't dad come back yet? Doesn't he want me anymore? Seventh Sister was kidnapped by the abominable Wuhun Palace, and she doesn’t know what she’s going to do now? "
"And big brother and the others... I really don't know what to do?"
Liu Wa felt very confused and sad. At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart: Wuhun Palace arrested my mother, brothers and sisters, and I will never share this hatred with you.
But it hasn't been born yet, so there is no chance for revenge.
At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening thunder. This thunder struck the swaying little blue gourd impartially.
With the influx of lightning, the little gourd finally had enough energy.
Tiny cracks began to appear on the shell of the small gourd, like a butterfly about to emerge from its cocoon. These cracks gradually expanded, eventually forming clearly visible cracks.
Finally, with a crisp "pop" sound, the top cover of the small gourd slowly opened.
A blue light that was more dazzling than before rose into the sky and instantly illuminated the entire valley.
In that light, a small and exquisite blue figure slowly rose from the gourd. Its body exudes a mysterious and powerful aura, as if it were an elf born between heaven and earth.
However, at this moment, the gourd vines around the small gourd seemed to sense some danger. They danced quickly, wrapping the small gourd tightly and forming a faint green light shield around it.
This mask may seem weak, but it can easily withstand attacks and interference from the outside world. At the same time, it can also block the powerful aura emitted by the small gourd, making it impossible for outsiders to detect its existence.
In this way, the birth of the little blue gourd is both grand and low-key. Although the energy it released was enough to shock the entire world, due to the protection of the gourd vine, this powerful aura was not noticed by the outside world. After the last sneak attack on Wuhun Palace, the Calabash Vine was also trying its best to protect the weak and helpless Calabash Baby.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuakok, I’m the only one here, my father is not here, my brothers are not here either, and even the soul beast is gone, souuuuuuuu...”
I saw the newly born Liu baby lying in the cold ruins and crying sadly.
He remembered the vast and lively scene when his brothers were born, and suddenly felt the gap in his heart getting bigger and bigger.
After crying for a while, Liuwa stood up from the ground with difficulty, still saying:
"Dad said that a man bleeds but does not shed tears. I must be strong and cannot go on like this."
"My brother, the others, and my mother are still waiting for me to rescue them."
"There is also Qimei. I promised Qimei before she left. Qimei has sacrificed so much for herself, and I will definitely rescue her."
"Yes, I must become stronger. Wuhun Palace ruined the happiness of our family. It is really bad. I must take revenge."
Liu Wa struggled to dig through the ruins on the ground, looking for the broken gourd shells. It took him a while to find them all. His body and hands were covered in the black soil of the ruins.
Then a man walked towards the collapsed house. Liuwa's back was extremely desolate, as if even the gourd vine couldn't help but sigh.
Fortunately, there was still a corner of the house that had not collapsed, and there happened to be a water tank in the remaining corner.
Liu Wa walked over. Obviously Liu Wa was not as tall as the water tank. He even tiptoed hard and couldn't reach it, so he had to rummage through the ruins again.
After raising the bed a little higher, Liu Wa could barely reach some water. He washed his small hands covered with black soil, and then washed the gourd shell, although the gourd shell didn't look clean either.
At this time, Liuwa stuffed the gourd baby into his mouth bit by bit.
Then he picked up the water and drank it to prevent himself from choking on the gourd shell.
Liuwa thought in his mind.
"Dad said you have to wash your hands before eating, otherwise they won't grow up. I need to eat more gourd shells so that I can grow up quickly. When I grow up, I can save them."
He looked at the ruined house and the dwarf gourd vines, and recalled the way his father used to water and fertilize them with a smile, which was in sharp contrast to now.
But then he thought about how several of his brothers were still locked up in the dark prison of Wuhun Palace, and his lonely and sad mood was instantly dispelled.
He murmured: "At least I still have gourd shells and water to drink. My brother and the others are locked in the dungeon and I don't have anything to eat. Okay, no, I can't be sad alone. I have to grow up quickly and rescue them."
On the other side, in the secret room of Wuhun Palace...
The five gourd kids formed a circle and were also gnawing on the big chicken drumsticks, eating them with gusto.
The corners of the fourth and fifth baby's mouths were covered with a thick layer of grease that was almost impossible to look at. It was obvious that they had followed the rhythm of the previous three gourd babies and were completely immersed in the world of delicious food.
"I don't know what the sixth brother's situation is now. The seventh sister was arrested by the Wuhun Palace, but we haven't seen the sixth brother. We hope that everything is safe for him."
Da Wa suddenly stopped what he was doing and put down the drumstick, with a look of worry on his face and a hint of heaviness in his tone.
