Chapter 189: Birth (2)

Fei Ji enjoyed Ba Ke Er's flattery and wanted to burst out laughing, but seeing Le Le sleeping peacefully, he lowered his head, covered his mouth to avoid waking him, and gave a few quiet chuckles.

"All right, let's go out quickly! Don't wake Le Le here." Saying that, Fei Ji already stepped out of the second bedroom first.

Seeing this, Ba Ke Er walked over, tucked the blanket corner for Le Le, lowered his head and gently placed a pitying kiss on his cheek, and said with an apologetic expression:

"Sorry, Le Le, it's all Father's fault for only paying attention to Am and your brothers, forgetting that you also need care. I hope you can forgive Father!"

After saying that, Ba Ke Er left the second bedroom, taking three steps while looking back each time.

Ba Ke Er, having left the room, didn't notice that when he kissed Le Le's cheek, Le Le's eyelids twitched; and as he left the bedroom, Le Le's little mouth also moved slightly, as if saying: "It's okay, Father."

When Ba Ke Er returned outside the birthing room, he saw Di Er coming out carrying a large basin of blood water from the birthing room. Seeing this, Ba Ke Er couldn't help but widen his eyes, his heart filled with even more pity.

"Am! How is Fan Fan? Still hasn't given birth? It's been so long already! Dawn is almost here!" Ba Ke Er rushed over, grabbed Di Er's arm, and asked anxiously.

Seeing Ba Ke Er's expression mixed with anxiety, shock, and pity, Di Er merely lowered his head and let out a soft sigh, then said:

"Yeah! It's been so long already! Why hasn't he given birth yet? Fan Fan is almost fainting from the pain. What can we do? If normal delivery isn't possible, we'll probably have to cut open Fan Fan's belly and take the babies out."

Hearing Di Er say that, Ba Ke Er felt even more pity, his face turning pale. After agonizing for a while, Ba Ke Er still decided to wait, fearing that if he directly chose a cesarean, Fan Fan might leave him like that.

"Am! Don't you have any other way? You still have labor-inducing medicine, right? Quickly give Fan Fan some! Look how much he's suffering now!"

Ba Ke Er stared at Di Er with a pleading gaze, desperately hoping to see a glimmer of hope on Am's face. However, Di Er disappointed him.

Look, Di Er stared at Ba Ke Er, agonized for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Ba Ke Er, calm down first! We've already given him ten labor-inducing pills! If he takes more, the babies will be in danger!"

"Don't worry, Fan Fan, he… will be fine! Don't forget! He is the Beast God's Divine Envoy! The Great Beast God won't abandon him!"

After stating the truth, Di Er still couldn't help comforting the dazed Ba Ke Er who had just learned the facts.

As soon as Ba Ke Er heard Di Er mention the Beast God, it was as if he suddenly thought of something; his sorrow and pity vanished instantly, replaced by a look of hope and reverence!

Seeing Ba Ke Er's sudden change, Di Er felt somewhat at a loss, yet the situation forced him to think. He quickly poured the blood water in his hand into the waste bucket, then rushed to the kitchen, fetched a basin of fresh clean water, and returned to the birthing room.

Fei Ji and Lei Ya, seeing Di Er return, just stared blankly toward the east at Ba Ke Er kneeling in the snow, their faces full of confusion.

"Beast God above! Please save Fan Fan! He is your chosen Beast God's Divine Envoy; surely you don't want him to depart this world so early! Please, for the sake of my sincere devotion to him, save him!"

Hearing Ba Ke Er's muttering with a hint of tears, Fei Ji and Lei Ya couldn't help sighing in their hearts and shaking their heads slightly.

Lei Ya looked at Ba Ke Er's state, feeling deeply reluctant; his lips twitched a few times but he uttered no word, yet his legs moved on their own to Ba Ke Er's side, where he gently patted his shoulder.

"Beast God above! Please, for the sake of my son's sincere devotion to the Beast God's Divine Envoy, lend your aid! Let Fan Fan overcome this crisis!" Lei Ya agonized for a while, then couldn't help speaking, facing east with sincere attitude, performed a salute and spoke loudly.

"Father! Thank you!" Ba Ke Er felt very surprised by Lei Ya's action, but still turned back, looked at him with a lofty expression, and said thanks.

Lei Ya looked at his son, merely smiling and giving a slight nod, without saying another word.

"Great Beast God! Please definitely save Fan Fan! Ba Ke Er begs you again!" Because influenced by his own father, Ba Ke Er's earlier muttering had turned into a loud plea.

Pleading to the Beast God, hoping he would show his power and help the two of them get through the crisis together!

With Ba Ke Er's loud pleas one after another, a faint white light gradually appeared in the distant east; as time passed, the light grew stronger, adding a touch of warmth to this cold season.

At this moment, Ba Ke Er was completely unaware of the changes around him; he only knew to close his eyes and loudly plead toward the east.

Lei Ya and Fei Ji clearly saw the anomaly; they couldn't help but start to wonder.

Lei Ya furrowed his brow, walked over to Fei Ji, and whispered: "Fei Ji, what's going on? It's not even dawn yet, so how did the sun come out?"

Fei Ji himself also found it strange; he was about to ask Lei Ya, who often runs outside, whether he had seen such a situation. Now hearing Lei Ya ask him, he felt a bit dazed.

After a long while, Fei Ji finally came to his senses and answered blankly: "I don't know either! I was going to ask you, the well-informed one, but I didn't expect you to not know either!"

At that moment, inside the birthing room.

Zhang Fan had already fainted several times from the labor pains, then woken up again several times. He had taken ten labor-inducing pills, his amniotic fluid had already broken, yet still no sign of the baby's head.

Seeing the current situation, as the tribal healer who had delivered countless females of the Tribe, Wei Er could still remain calm for now, but as the pharmacist, Di Er couldn't help feeling heartbroken at the sight before him, tears streaming like water.

Wei Er turned his head, glanced at his younger brother, let out a faint sigh, and said softly: "Di Er, why don't you go out first? I think you need to calm down. I've got everything under control here."

After saying that, Wei Er turned back. Di Er looked at his older brother, then at Zhang Fan who was still moaning softly, gritted his teeth, wiped away his tears, and said with a determined expression:

"No! Older Brother! In this situation I cannot retreat! I will surely watch Fan Fan give birth safely to the little ones, and then I'll spank each of their little bottoms one by one!"

Seeing Di Er earnestly spouting nonsense, Wei Er could only nod helplessly, implicitly allowing Di Er to stay.

Meanwhile, Zhang Fan, who had been tormented by the labor pains to the point of near death, back and forth, now had his attention drawn to Di Er and Wei Er.

Zhang Fan even let out a light laugh because of their conversation.

Wei Er, seeing that Zhang Fan had stopped shouting in pain, brightened up, took his hand, and asked softly: "Fan Fan, do you feel better now?"

Just as Wei Er finished asking, Zhang Fan's brows furrowed again, he gritted his teeth, and said:

"Un… uncle, I… feel… so… painful! How… so… long… have… those… little… little… rascals… still… not… come… out…?"

As he uttered the last word, Zhang Fan was already screaming from the pain.

"Uncle, I… feel… I… am… about… to… run… out… of… strength. I… am… so… tired… I… just… want… to… sleep…"

Having said the final word, Zhang Fan could no longer hold on and fainted.

Wei Er and Di Er were both terrified by this sight, especially Di Er, who had been frightened into a daze, only knowing to stare wide-eyed at the unconscious Zhang Fan.

Wei Er, although also frightened, still retained his reason, walked straight to Zhang Fan's side, and began calling out.

"Fan Fan! Wake up quickly! If you sleep like this, what will happen to the babies in your belly? They haven't even had a chance to see the rising sun, and you're being so heartless? Do you want them to sleep forever?"

At this moment, Zhang Fan had already fallen into a drowsy state; he didn't hear Wei Er's calls very clearly, but he also didn't know what was happening, always feeling as if something was summoning him.

Looking at the dark world before him, Zhang Fan felt somewhat confused, and instinctively placed his hand on his own belly.

However, the sensation coming from his hands shocked him greatly. He moved his hands up and down, left and right across his belly, and his unease grew. He exclaimed: "My child!"

Indeed! At this moment, what Zhang Fan felt was no longer the swollen belly of pregnancy, but his originally flat abdomen from before he was pregnant.

Zhang Fan dared not believe what he felt; he tried squatting down and using his legs to see if he could touch his belly.

However, even after squatting as low as he could, his legs still didn't reach his belly. Unable to accept this, Zhang Fan looked up at the dark sky and shouted:

"Heaven! Are you playing with me? Since you let me become pregnant, why then take away my children? This is so unfair!"

Wei Er and Di Er stared blankly at Zhang Fan; seeing his lips start to move, they thought he had woken up. Thus, Wei Er called out even more loudly.

Di Er also couldn't help but move his ear closer, eager to hear clearly what he was saying. However, even pressing his whole ear tightly to Zhang Fan's mouth, he still heard nothing.

At this time, Ba Ke Er outside the delivery room was still kneeling in the snow, eyes closed, praying to the Beast God.
