Tortoise of the Great Desolation

Chapter 458 If you want to live a decent life, who needs more money...

Nanfangbuzhou, Yangcheng.

Yangcheng is a large tribe of the human race, where the Chong clan lived, and Gun had been the leader of the Chong clan before.

Now, Gun was exiled and died in Mount Yu because of his failure to control the flood.

However, although Yu is the leader of the Chong family, his home in Yangcheng is just an ordinary small courtyard. If someone who doesn't know sees it, they would never expect that this is the residence of the leader of the Chong family.

Yu's wife is called Nvjiao, whom Yu met outside, not from the Chong clan.

Nvjiao is a very virtuous woman. Although Yu took on the burden of water control not long after she married Yu, Nvjiao has no complaints about it.

She just waited silently at home, waiting for Yu's return.

On this day, Yu's home.

Nvjiao was sitting at the stone table in the small courtyard as usual, holding a piece of clothing in her hands and casually sewing.

She hasn't seen Yu for a long time since Yu left home.

At this time, if someone is on the side, it will probably feel very strange.

Because the style of the clothes in the hands of the girl is actually the style of a child.

However, this was in Yu's house, and since Yu was not around, there was only Nvjiao in the house, so naturally no one would ask questions.

sunset.

The girl seemed to be aware of it, and raised her head to look in the direction of the gate, but the two gates were still closed, and there was no sign of opening from the outside.

Sighing self-deprecatingly, Nujiao put down the clothes in her hands.

She knew that this day, like the countless days that had passed, could not wait for Yu's return.

After tidying up her sewing, Nvjiao was going to make some food.

Although she has no appetite.

Although it makes no difference whether she eats or not.

However, she heard from the old people in the city that if she is pregnant, she should eat more nutritious food, which is good for the unborn child.

Therefore, whether she can eat or not, she will try to eat something.

After all, she didn't understand these things, so she had to follow the experience of those old people.

Yes, she is pregnant.

It is Yu's child.

It's just that she hasn't had time to tell Yu yet.

Or, she didn't know what to say to Yu.

The clothes in her hand before were made by her for the child in her womb.

However, just when Nujiao got up and was about to take the things on hand into the house, and then cook, her face suddenly changed.

On the eaves, a young man with a sullen complexion was looking at her.

"Finally found you, girl."

The young man lightly jumped down from the eaves and came to the front of the girl.

Seeing the young man, Nvjiao couldn't help showing a trace of nervousness on her face, but at the same time she also felt relieved: "You've found it anyway, Wu Zhiqi."

"Why did you run away?" Staring closely at the eyes of the girl, the young man who was called Wu Zhiqi by the girl showed a bit of anger: "Even if you don't want to marry me, you can still tell me , you know, I will not force you. I can go and tell your father to postpone our marriage. You are still injured, what if you run out alone and you are in danger? And you actually hid in the human race Don’t you know that we have enmity with the human race? The reason why your Qingqiu clan can only live in the secret realm of the clan is thanks to Xuanyuan. You know how much I worry about you during this time ?"

The girl smiled bitterly.

She didn't know what to say.

Indeed, if it was because of other things, she told Wu Zhiqi that she didn't want to get married, and Wu Zhiqi would definitely agree to postpone it based on his feelings for her.

However, she fell in love with another person, Yu.

How could this make her open her mouth?
"Come back with me." Seeing the bitterness on the corner of the girl's mouth, Wu Zhiqi couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"No matter what happens, we can solve it together."

While talking, he stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Nvjiao's hair as before.

However, Nujiao took two steps back, avoiding his hand.

"No."

"Why?" Wu Zhiqi couldn't help showing a little restlessness in his eyes.

"Do you know how dangerous it is for you to stay in the human race? Except for the demon race in the heaven and the northern demon court, other demon races like us will be chased and killed by them as long as they appear in the sight of the human race. What's more, you Now you still have injuries on your body, and you have no power to protect yourself. What should you do if someone finds out that you are a monster?"

The girl was speechless.

She tightly held the clothes in her hand, what Wu Zhiqi said was her heart disease, and also the reason why she didn't tell Yu that she was pregnant.

At this moment, Wu Zhiqi suddenly caught a glimpse of the child's clothes in Nvjiao's hands.

Just now, his attention has been on the girl, and he didn't pay attention to anything else.

Now, looking at the child-like clothes in Nvjiao's hands, Wu Zhiqi's face suddenly changed: "What are you holding in your hand?"

Nvjiao froze for a moment, her expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously put the clothes in her hand behind her.

However, halfway down her hand, she stopped.

Sighing slightly, looking at the disbelieving Wu Zhiqi, Nvjiao calmly said: "This is the clothes I made for my unborn child."

"Child?" Wu Zhiqi's face instantly turned extremely pale.

He looked at Nvjiao and said dryly, "So, that's why you ran away?"

Nujiao nodded: "Wu Zhiqi, although my father wants me to marry you, but you know, I have always regarded you as my elder brother."

Wu Zhiqi stood there without speaking for a long time.

"Who is he?"

"His name is Yu."

Wu Zhiqi looked at Nvjiao's calm eyes and smiled.

"Yu? Yu! Yu!!!" He laughed crazily, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world: "You actually married Yu?"

Wu Zhiqi's crazy appearance made Nvjiao feel deeply uneasy, she stepped forward and grabbed Wu Zhiqi's arm, and asked nervously, "What's wrong with Yu?"

"You asked me what happened to him?" Wu Zhiqi was still laughing.

It was just his laughter, but it sounded like he was crying.

"Nvjiao, are you really unwilling to go back with me? As long as you go back with me, I can ignore all of this. I will even treat the child in your womb as my own and raise him as my own son."

Nvjiao let go of Wu Zhiqi's arm, took two steps back, and shook her head: "You know me."

Wu Zhiqi closed his eyes wearily.

"You chose it yourself, girl."

He slowly opened his eyes and said expressionlessly: "Remember, never let him know your true identity, no matter how much you think he loves you, no matter how much you trust him, this is what I can give you , a final piece of advice."
