MTL - Offered Into Marriage-Chapter 91 [One more] storytelling
Archibald was very close to Yang Yang, and had been following the movements of Yang Yang, so he heard Xiao Baijia's words clearly.
Archibald's face immediately cooled down, stopped talking, and turned to look at it.
Xiao Baijia was shaken a bit, but he didn't feel that he had said something wrong, so he looked blank.
When the old village chief saw this, he took a cane and pricked Xiao Baijia's butt, angrily, "What nonsense? The Duchess is different from us."
Xiao Baijia was not convinced. "But the Duke is the same as us."
"Don't shut up yet!"
The old village chief yelled at Xiao Baijia, and then turned around and said to Archibald and Yang Yang, "Previously, there was a case where a pregnant woman had a difficult childbirth and died in the village, and the child was not saved. It is a bimodal Leicester. Child We didn't know where we heard it, so we came up with the concept. "
After speaking, he continued to take the crutches of Xiaobaijia's buttocks: "The Duchess is pregnant with the child, don't say such obscene words!"
Xiao Baijia remembered it, and immediately "snapped" for a while, and said to Yang Yang chuckled, "Duke, don't be angry, when I say nothing, OK?"
How could Yang Yang care about a child, and said with a smile that it was all right.
However, Archibald was not so confused, he paused, and then shifted the topic from his "heroic record" to the village.
Archibald: "Over the course of this journey, I found that although there are many people in the village, they are mainly young, with very few children and elderly people, and all of them are in the form of half-beasts.-This is what happened. What? "
It seemed that he would have asked this question. The old village chief was not surprised, and sighed, saying the reason: "In fact, the people in this village are the survivors of the dragon-level soul beast attack. And descendants of survivors. "
Archibald frowned: "I remember that the battle had resettlement measures for survivors and rescued immigrants. After the global migration, search and rescue teams spent a year searching for survivors. Didn't anyone find you? ? "
The old village chief did not immediately answer. He took a look at the scar face standing outside the crowd, and the scar face immediately recognized, shouting to the children: "Cubs, come out to help prepare dinner."
The children, led by Xiao Baijia, suddenly made unhappy noises.
"We still want to hear stories."
"I still have questions without asking Lord Duke."
But Scar's face was not accommodating. When the eyes glared, a few children suddenly froze and obediently followed the Scar's face and left the circle of melons.
After the scar face took the children away, the old village chief took a long breath, then drooped the slack eyelids, and his eyes fell on the void, remembering long-distance events.
"I have enjoyed the resettlement after the disaster. My household registration was also assigned to Xindixing, and it gave me a house.-A big house, I was so happy at that time."
There was a smile of nostalgia on the face of the old village chief, but that smile soon disappeared.
"But not everyone has good luck and treatment like me. Those ordinary people who have been struggling with food and clothing at the old Emperor Star have been resettled much better than in the past, but Over time, this catastrophe is gradually forgotten, and fewer people follow them. "
"In that disaster, almost seven adults were infected with soul and soul power, some serious and some mild. Manic inhibitors were in short supply and consumed hugely, not to mention those high-level inhibitors, not to mention ordinary people, rich and wealthy. Not necessarily buyable. "
Having said that, the old village chief sighed again.
"Life is better than before, but I can't afford to consume a lot of inhibitors. A few people in a family can't be taken down by one person.
Some families have some conscience, and send the seriously ill to a centralized resettlement center. Although they may be detained for a lifetime, they can be controlled by drugs from time to time.
But when I encountered some unscrupulous people, I dragged it out into the wild. "
Yang Yang frowned, pulled Comilla into her arms, gave her a headset and played games.
The old village chief: "I myself was infected with the soul and beast spirit, and the soul palace was seriously damaged. Fortunately, I did n’t marry a wife at that time, I left the house to my parents, and then I set up a containment organization myself. Help those who have been abandoned.
Other people were slowly involved in the process, many of whom were volunteers and also provided material assistance. "
"Everything seems to be getting better."
The expression of the old village chief became bitter, and he sighed again and again: "With the supplies and manpower, we took some patients we were planning to relocate to the old emperor star.-At that time, although the old emperor star was taken over by the military, But there was not much defensive defense. I have been stationed in the old Emperor since I joined the army, and I am very familiar with it. "
"But unexpectedly, on the way, our starship encountered a star theft and was attacked. In the end, the starship crashed on the old emperor star, and we only had a dozen individuals escaped."
"The area where the starship crashed was a no-man's land. We were afraid that the star theft would chase us, so we fled, and when we returned to God, we were already in the wilderness, and we were left alone."
Yang Yang wondered: "Have you ever tried to contact the military?"
The old village chief; "Have tried it, but the star network of the old Emperor Star had not been rebuilt at the time, and he could not be contacted at all."
Archibald: "After that? Now there are already a lot of reconstruction and reformation areas outside, not too far from here. And the star network has covered the whole world.-Since you can know me, it means you There are channels to get outside information, why not contact us? "
Archibald said "we" here, naturally the military.
The old village chief was silent for a while, then slowly said: "We have contacted. I went out to contact personally."
"I am familiar with the old Emperor Star, so after I settled the survivors after the crash of the starship, I set out to find someone to help. What I found was the first batch of reconstruction areas to be built, which was responsible for a little nobleman.
noble.
Hearing this word again, Archibald and Yang Yang both jumped in their hearts.
The old village chief's eyelids are still hanging, and his face is full of expressions, and his story continues.
"The little aristocrat was very nice and helped us a lot. But at that time the old emperor star had no immigration plan, and the reconstruction area was built just for the convenience of the army.
He offered to send us back, I refused, so he helped us settle in a shelter. "
"We have a new home here. The little aristocrat also introduced us to the doctor and will not disclose our existence to others."
"That doctor's medicine is good. He has developed a new type of inhibitor for the people in that disaster, although there will be some side effects-such as aggravating the damage of the soul palace, causing our beastization to become uncontrollable and become half Orc form.
However, we have been relieved by the mania that infected the soul and beast. "
"Later, after I learned that some residents of the old Emperor Star had moved here, I also went to look for it. But I did not expect that because of our abnormal appearance, it caused conflicts with some ordinary people.
After that, people in the village were less willing to contact the outside world. "
"So in the decades that followed, we hid in the no-man's land to thrive. Those days were really good times."
"Unfortunately, good days always come to an end."
"Fifty years ago, women and females in the village became difficult to conceive children. Even if they conceive children ..."
The old village chief stopped talking, his face became sore, and all the young men around him looked sad and unbearable.
Yang Yang recalled Xiao Baijia's "Wujii Tongyan" before, and he had a bad feeling.
"Are all dystocias?"
The old village chief closed his eyes and shook his head: "No. The women who have difficulty giving birth are all dead."
what?
Yang Yang's eyes widened. Archibald also had a stun in his heart, his tail stretched out involuntarily, and rolled it around Yang Yang's waist.
As if only in this way, he could confirm that Yang Yang was "well".
Yang Yang put her hand on the tip of Archibald's tail, and touched it gently, soothing right.
Yang Yang thought for a moment, guessing the reason: "is it because the soul palace is damaged?"
The old village chief: "Well, it's not because the female's soul house is damaged, but the child's soul house is damaged.-I just said that the doctor's new inhibitor has side effects. This side effect has changed our years and years. Blood, or genes? I don't know much about this.
And this change is also reflected in the baby. "
"I don't know when, after the child conceived by the female, the child's eggs will not start to develop completely, but will fade the eggshell and become a viviparous state like a woman.
If it is an ordinary child, it just hurts a bit, and there is no danger to life.
But I don't know why, the female is pregnant with bimorphic Leicester. "
Yang Yang has understood, "Can it be said that when the child is in the female's belly, he becomes a half-beast?"
The old village chief nodded: "Not only that, but the young duke and the duchess also know that the double-layer Leicester's scale armor is still soft, and then every year, it will shed scale and change armor until adulthood, scale armor It will be a mature state and extremely hard. "
Yang Yang: "..."
He really didn't know this.
The old village chief: "But the females in our village are pregnant, and when they are not born, the scales are mature."
After that, the old village chief didn't say anything, but Yang Yang already understood why "one body and two lives".
With his imagination, Yang Yang felt that his stomach was aching. It seems that he is the female who is pierced by the child's scales in the stomach and pierces the soul palace.
Yang Yang's face was pale, his fists clenched and he didn't speak.
"It's all right."
Archibald leaned over and embraced Yang Yang's shoulder, bowed his head and kissed Yang Yang's warm forehead. "Don't think about it."
Yang Yang looked up at Archibald, as if gaining strength, his clenched fist slowly relaxed.
The old village chief eased those painful memories before continuing to say: "After that, the population in the village became smaller. Until 30 years ago, doctors tried to make test-tube babies and finally gave birth to normal children .—— Not a double form of Leicester, nor a half-beast form like ours, a normal child. "
"That year was really good."
However, Yang Yang didn't get happy because of this-if a normal child was born 30 years ago, why is there no non-orc in the village now?
