Chapter 387: Pregnant with an Egg
My hand kept shaking, and Li Qingying held the phone in one hand and swiped the page with the other.
I kept searching, but flipping back and forth, there was nothing.
There was no Divine Temple Main Hall that I had seen in the Profound Phoenix dream.
"Paper, pen."
Li Qingying put down the phone and then brought paper and pen.
I leaned over the tea table and began to draw.
I have some drawing skills, after all I learned to draw talismans from my grandmother since childhood, and later Liu Junyan taught me a bit more.
But my wrist still can't exert much force, so the drawing is very simple, just sketching the rough outline of the Divine Temple Main Hall.
While I was drawing the Divine Temple Main Hall, Bai Shulan rushed over.
She was about to speak when Liu Junyan waved to stop her.
Bai Shulan's gaze fixed on Liu Junyan, but her eyes clearly looked past his body……Sure enough, she noticed it right away.
Her eyes flickered, her lips trembled, but she finally withdrew her gaze, said nothing, asked nothing, placed the medical kit opposite me, took out silver needles, medicines, etc., and began to prepare the medicine and disinfect…
After I finished the drawing, I handed it to Liu Junyan: "Āyàn, contact Old Fang, have him help check, act quickly, find this place as soon as possible."
Liu Junyan took the drawing, turned to contact Fang Chuan Zong, and Bai Shulan took over, giving me acupuncture and medicine.
I felt awful, awful, pain and heat intertwined in my body, after the constantly tense emotions relaxed, my spirit and energy quickly drained.
Bai Shulan held a disinfected silver needle in one hand and gently touched my white hair with the other, saying heartbrokenly: "Xiao Jiu, don't think about anything, just sleep well, entrust yourself to me, I can make you a bit more comfortable."
I nodded and closed my eyes.
I knew I was safe.
Li Qingying will help clean my wounds, Bai Shulan will do her best to treat me, Liu Junyan will finish everything……I suddenly thought of something, snapped my eyes open, and asked: "Soul-guiding Lamp…"
"The Soul-guiding Lamp is here." Li Qingying hurriedly said, "When the Soul-guiding Lamp was brought out of the deep ravine by the ghost face, Fu Wan and the Profound Cat had already sensed it, and they immediately brought it back."
I silently let out a breath, really good.
The next moment, Bai Shulan's silver needle dropped down, not painful, just a sore, distended feeling in the acupoint, then it began to heat up…Soon I fell asleep.
I must say, Bai Shulan's needling technique is truly good; I slept especially soundly this time, without dreams or any pain.
I don't know how long I slept; when I woke up, I was lying on my own bed, the curtains had been lowered, and the light inside was dim.
There was no bloody smell on my body, nor any sticky, dirty feeling; although the wounds hurt, I could bear it.
As soon as I moved, I noticed many silver needles still stuck in my body, so I dared not move.
Faintly, I heard someone speaking outside, Bai Shulan's angry low growl: "Didn't you solemnly promise she wouldn't get pregnant? What about your reputation? You men are all no good! You can't even control your own lower half, you're not worthy of Xiao Jiu!"
She had already tried to lower her voice, but she couldn't hold back her anger, and by the end her voice was trembling with tears.
I heard Li Qingying also sobbing.
I felt a bit dazed, what happened to them?
What are they saying?
Pregnant? Who got pregnant?
I… me?
I instinctively wanted to lift my hand to touch my lower abdomen, but my hands and abdomen were full of silver needles, so I couldn't move.
This feeling is strange, like I'm dreaming.
This dream feels so unreal, how could I be pregnant?
Such a low-probability atavistic event, just happened like this?
What my pregnancy at this time signifies, everyone understands, so Bai Shulan is furious, Li Qingying cries, and Liu Junyan stays silent.
But… who is to blame for this?
No one expected Liu Junyan to have such an astonishing genetic trait.
"Qingying Sis."
I made a sound, and outside immediately fell silent.
Then came a flurry of hurried movements.
When my room door was pushed open, Liu Junyan entered first, he turned on the light, strode to my bedside, not daring to move me, my body was covered in silver needles.
He merely extended a finger, hooked my right pinky, his eye sockets red.
He felt heartbroken and guilty: "Xiao Jiu, I'm sorry, I…"
"You didn't know this would happen either." I remained calm.
Because this wasn't a mistake he or I knowingly committed.
I asked, "Have you contacted Old Fang? Any news from his side?"
Liu Junyan replied, "Not yet."
"Then go urge him again." I said, "The Taotie Fierce Formation is a blind; beneath it hides the Luan Formation, the Luan Formation controls a Profound Phoenix, my spirit bone is hidden inside the Profound Phoenix's body, I enter the Divine Temple Main Hall through the Profound Phoenix, confront the Di Luan, find this temple, and I can find the Di Luan, Āyàn, this is urgent."
Liu Junyan just looked at me, silent.
I know he has many things he wants to say to me; at this moment he doesn't want to leave me for a second.
But for me, this information about the Divine Temple Main Hall is something I fought for with my life, and it's extremely important.
Of course, right now I also indeed want to get rid of him first.
My pinky hooked his finger, I smiled at him, rarely acting coquettish: "I've been turned into a pincushion by all these needles, you staying here is useless, let Shulan come in to pull out the needles."
Liu Junyan sighed, could only obey, got up, left, and let Bai Shulan come in.
Li Qingying also came in with them, her eyes were swollen from crying.
Bai Shulan's situation was no better, red-eyed she rolled her eyes at me: "At a time like this you can actually laugh? Your life is almost over!"
While saying that, she began to help me pull out the needles.
I asked her, "Can you feel how long I've been pregnant?"
Bái Sōnglán shook her head: "I've checked carefully several times; I can confirm you're pregnant, but I can't feel how many days it's been."
I said, "It might be several months."
Bái Sōnglán frowned, but did not immediately refute me.
I then knew she also had doubts in her heart.
I then leisurely told them about the atavism matter.
Although Li Qingying had also gone to Linghai before, she couldn't enter the Linghai Dragon Palace; she didn't know about this.
After hearing me finish, both of them indeed had faces of disbelief.
"So this isn't his fault; it's just our bad luck." I said, "If I'm not mistaken, now even if I wanted to abort, I couldn't, right?"
Bái Sōnglán hummed: "It still takes your life."
"That means my fate with the child has come." I thought for a moment, then asked, "Then can you feel whether it's a single or multiple pregnancy?"
"Single." Bái Sōnglán said firmly, "And it's most likely not viviparous; probably oviparous."
Fine, I'm pregnant with an egg…
