Besides Qiao Daoqing, the "Illusion Demon Lord", who else could this person who calls himself Guo Jing be?
Although he and Ma Ling both have the same magic, they are not gods after all. They are crouching tigers, hidden dragons in the Imperial City. How can they save their brothers with just two of them?
Therefore, this plan was set up: first, Ma Ling used the power of the earth spirit beads to activate the earth veins and manifested Xuanhuang; then Qiao Daoqing used the Samadhi Divine Water method to summon clouds and rain; and Ma Ling activated the gold bricks to imitate the sword. Light; then Qiao Daoqing used the art of photographing objects to conjure spirits, attracting a clay dragon statue from the Dragon King Temple, pretending to be a demon dragon...
In the end, he showed off his ability to travel around the world, pretending to be mysterious and talking to himself, which created an audio-visual feast.
His plan was precisely based on the romantic nature of Zhao Guan's family, their admiration for immortals and Taoism, and he also showed the two people's skills to the fullest.
After Ma Ling took back the earth spirit bead, he immediately left the imperial city and returned to his lower place.
The next day, I gathered enough energy and walked out. The whole city had already spread the news: The demon dragon of the northern country secretly photographed the dragon spirit of the national destiny of the Song Dynasty, so that the southeast was shaken and Fang La rebelled. Although the commander Tong commanded his troops to put an end to the national destiny, the national destiny was not revealed, and there must be something wrong in the future. Strange disaster.
Fortunately, Guo Jing, a qigong practitioner from Zhongnan Mountain, felt that today's people are virtuous and benevolent. He went down the mountain to eliminate the demon and drove the demon dragon to flee north. He made an immortal contribution and was personally named by the officials as "The Mighty Spirit of Protecting the Country and Revealing the Blessing Master". ", leaving him permanently stationed in Tokyo to protect all people.
Ma Ling laughed aloud and went to take a look outside the Imperial City. At noon, hundreds of people played the harp and sheng, and paved the road with fragrant flowers. They came with a cloud chariot, and on the carriage were Qiao Dao, who had the spirit of immortality and entered the imperial palace in person. The city secretary took out Li Zhu and Lei Heng.
The two of them had been around for a long time and were good at calculations. The treacherous county official was well-informed and could play the drum without a heavy hammer. When Qiao Daoqing came to pick him up, he didn't even have to make a sound. In a few words, they connected the conversation seamlessly. .
Poor Aoi Xiangyang, she wanted to recover from her injuries before questioning him in detail, but now she could only watch him leave.
Ma Ling knew about the plan and did not want to meet the three of them. According to the previous agreement, he left the city and went straight to Qingzhou to find Cao Cao. He told Qiao Daoqing about his strategy of "killing two birds with one stone": after rescuing Li Lei, he would stay in Bianjing as a Taoist official. , to fill the internal response.
Cao Cao laughed loudly after hearing what he said. Qiao Daoqing's plan was adapted to local conditions and was very clever. Not only did he save his brothers, he also directly inserted a nail into Zhao Ji's side. In this way, everything was smooth but much more convenient.
After leaving Ma Ling to rest for a few days, he asked him to return to Liangshan. He wanted An Daoquan to spare no expense in preparing the dry but not strong, long-lasting elixir and sent it to Qiao Daoqing to help him further strive for the favor. After preparing the elixir, , so I asked An Daoquan Qingzhou to listen.
In August, An Daoquan arrived as promised.
Seven or eight days later, Tamamo Mae gave birth, more than ten days earlier than the expected date of delivery.
At first, everyone didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that An Daoquan and Wang Po would only be able to give birth to a child, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a life of twists and turns!
It turned out that Tamamo Mae was young, petite in stature, and had a relatively narrow pelvis. It was not easy to give birth naturally. However, during pregnancy, she took too much nourishment, and the fetus in her belly grew extremely large. It became even more difficult for the chick to hatch a large egg. .
The people waiting in the hospital looked expectant at first. As time went by, they gradually stopped smiling when they saw the mother wailing incessantly. They all held their breaths and stared with fear.
An Daoquan frowned, and brought in bowls of soup, but it was like boiling soup, but no results were seen. Soon after, Wang Po's voice gradually became panicked, and finally even started to cry. It was obvious that Mrs. Wang was also a little panicked. Hands and feet.
Tamamo Mae's screams became lower instead, as if she had exhausted all her strength.
Lao Cao was wearing a light kudzu shirt, but still felt unbearably hot. He pulled his chest open, and there were beads of sweat all over his chest. He clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on his forehead popped out one by one.
After another moment, Wang Po was covered in sweat and stumbled out of the house, crying: "Master Wu, madams, Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu are afraid that something is not going to be right. It is really difficult for the senior officials to make a decision." When the time comes, should we protect the elder or the younger?"
The interrogators who have never given birth to children can’t help but ask, how do you call it “protecting the child”? In the Song Dynasty, to preserve the baby's bowels, one had to break the baby's bones or even mutilate the body in order to take it out. If the baby was to be preserved, the baby would be taken directly by caesarean section. At that time, most mothers would not be able to endure the sutures and would have to die.
Therefore, the four words "protect the elder and protect the young" are like a gate of hell. Women and children must be thrown in one after another.
Lao Cao's eyes suddenly turned fierce, like a hungry tiger that wanted to choose someone to devour. He gritted his teeth tightly without saying a word.
Wang Po was forced by his gaze and almost collapsed. Thanks to the fact that she was well-informed, she managed to support herself at this moment and cried sadly: "Official, I am incompetent. But if I don't make a decision early, I'm afraid... No matter how big or small, it is difficult to protect.”
Lao Cao jumped up and punched the pillar, causing his skin to bleed immediately.
The female family members in the courtyard all had earth-colored faces. Fang Jinzhi touched her lower abdomen and turned pale with fright. Fortunately, Fang Baihua was nearby and quickly helped her sit down.
When the news came out, the brothers waiting outside rushed into the small courtyard, only to see Lao Cao's face was as iron, his eyes were like tigers, and the evil energy was steaming around him. No one dared to come close to him for several feet.
At this time, Wu Song returned to Gaotang Prefecture, and the brothers looked at each other, and finally looked at Lu Junyi.
Lu Junyi was helpless, gritted his teeth, smiled bitterly, stepped forward to hold Lao Cao's hand, and said sadly: "Brother, why don't you... keep me young? This is what happened, and we must finally make a decision."
When Fang Baihua heard this, she glared at Yu Qilin with her beautiful eyes, gritted her teeth, and finally did not speak.
Hu Sanniang sighed and whispered: "Husband, why don't you ask my sister what she wants? I guess she also wants to keep her child alive." Before she finished speaking, two lines of tears had already rolled down her face.
Li Shishi and Pan Jinlian hugged each other and burst into tears, but they stuffed their handkerchiefs into their mouths and did not dare to make a sound.
Wang Yin looked at his daughter, as if remembering the past, his face was embarrassed, his eyes were red, and he leaned against the wall without saying a word.
"Brother..." "Husband..." Lu Junyi and Hu Sanniang both spoke.
Lao Cao didn't wait for the two of them to finish speaking, and suddenly said: "Bao Da Da!"
He wiped the sweat from his face and raised his voice: "Bao Dai! Wang Po, Doctor An, it's all up to you two to save Tamamo Mae's life."
An Daoquan nodded heavily, took out a few medicines from the medicine box, and began to boil them.
Mrs. Wang glanced at Lao Cao as if she didn't recognize him, and then flew back to the room.
"Good brother!" Duan Sanniang, a tiger woman, suddenly burst into tears and whispered: "It's not in vain for my sister Tamamo-mae to leave her family and country to marry you."
Fang Baihua also looked excited and said loudly: "Niece-in-law, well done!"
Most of the brothers showed strange expressions, but only the Iron Bull Monster shouted: "What's there to say? Of course it's Baoda. I don't care about my own woman, but who should I let her care about?"
Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Wang rushed out again and said with a bitter face: "Official, Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu will not allow us to hurt the child."
Hu Sanniang and the other sisters couldn't control their emotions anymore, and they all burst into tears.
Lao Cao took a deep breath and strode into the delivery room.
Tamamo Mae, who was already petite, seemed even smaller at this moment. Suddenly seeing Cao Cao intruding, she seemed slightly startled, and then she showed a sad expression and said in a voice like a mosquito: "First, save my child first."
Lao Cao took a few steps forward, half-knelt beside the bed, touched his head with his hand, and whispered: "First there are parents, then there are children. If the children make their parents suffer, they are unfilial. What use are they to unfilial children?" ?”
Tamamo was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Nonsense, he, he is not sensible yet..."
"I don't care if he is sensible or not!" Lao Cao rolled his strange eyes and said decisively: "You Fusang girl, since you are married to me, you must abide by my rules. My rule is that no matter how important the child is, no matter how important the child is, you must abide by my rules. Nothing is more important than his mother!”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to hold Tamamo Mae's hand, stroked her hair lovingly with the other hand, and shouted: "Where is Granny Wang? Come on, I'll do it."
Tamamo-mae burst into tears, and her body, which was already exhausted, like a dying fish, found more strength and struggled hard: "No, don't hurt my child..."
Lao Cao used a little force to control her and said unreasonably: "I didn't give you your child? Do you listen to him or to me?"
Tamamo Mae's nails dug into Lao Cao's palm: "Husband, husband..."
Her line of sight was blocked by Lao Cao. The lady over there was about to take action when she suddenly saw the bulging belly in front of Tamamo, shaking violently like an earthquake and a landslide. Then a head suddenly slipped out and she couldn't help but scream: "B-give birth!" …”
When a child is born, it is most difficult for the head to come out. If the head comes out, everything will fall into place naturally.
Grandma Wang felt refreshed, and immediately used all her skills to deliver the baby without any effort. She cut the umbilical cord with ease, wiped the amniotic fluid and blood stains, lifted it up, and gave the baby a slap on the butt. Crying loudly.
At this point, Mrs. Wang finally let out a long breath that she had been holding for a long time, and her tired old face put on a smile: "Congratulations to the great official on the tile work."
While letting the midwife's assistant who was invited to hold the baby, he wiped Tamamo Mae's body.
In front of Tamamo, I mustered up my courage and regained two lives before the gate of hell. I had exhausted my last bit of strength. Suddenly I heard the four words "The joy of making tiles", but I was not disappointed. After working hard for a long time, it turned out to be A daughter suddenly burst into tears again.
Since ancient times, it has been said that "mother is more valuable than son". She was a foreign woman who came to China alone and was not a real wife. She naturally wanted to have a son by her side. Didn't Lao Cao know that she was disappointed? He quickly got on the bed, held her in his arms, and said softly: "Giving birth to a son is like a Zhang, and giving birth to a daughter is like a tile. It's just a common sense. My beloved daughter is as precious as a treasure, so how can she be inferior to a son? Our daughter, From now on I will be called Wu Zhang, and I want the world to know that my daughter is more noble than my son!"
Tamamo Mae was moved when she heard this, but she shed more and more tears: "But, but I just want to give birth to a son for you."
Cao Cao smiled and said: "If our daughter is half as beautiful as her mother, she will be the most beautiful in the world. I don't know how many talented people will be tempted to marry me in the future. What's wrong? Besides, if you really like boys, you shouldn't do it." Cry, I have had a good life and nourished my body, and I will have a baby slowly with you as my husband."
Although Tamamozen is young, she is a monster who can naturally understand people's hearts. She naturally knows that with her usual beauty, every man will love her. However, it is difficult to give birth now and she has no makeup. Even if she is naturally beautiful, she will not be able to avoid seeing her. His lips are yellow and white, he is haggard, and his appearance is no longer as bright as usual.
Moreover, the smell of blood in the house was not very pleasant, and even I found it unbearable. However, looking at Lao Cao, he seemed not to notice it at all, and the look of regret and love in his eyes was stronger than before.
As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, how can he not be admired by Tamamozamae wholeheartedly when Lao Cao behaves like this? Unable to bear it, he hugged Cao Cao tightly, kissed his chest, and held his chest in his mouth.
Lao Cao couldn't help but laugh and said in a low voice: "You little devil, how can you find the strength? If you want to have fun and take good care of your body, just stay with your husband every night."
Tamamo's pale face finally had a hint of blush, she looked at Lao Cao dreamily, and fell asleep unknowingly.
Wang Po admired in a low voice: "In my whole life, I have never seen a man who loves his wife so much. If it were anyone else, the smell would be too picky and he would never get close to her from now on. There are probably many people out there, like most people." A man like Guanren is truly one of a kind. If all men in the world could do this, I, as a woman, would be willing to die for him."
Several other women also said yes.
Lao Cao said sternly: "Don't you see that she didn't care about her life just to give birth to my child? If I didn't pity her, I would be really inhumane."
As he talked, he slowly got down on the bed. He felt that his legs and feet were weak. He rubbed it a few times, shook his head and said with a smile: "Look, it's not me who gave birth to the child, so I made my legs and feet weak. What's more, I'm really suffering? Hey, I'm a human being. Both parents have their own difficulties, but the mother bears more burdens than the father."
He walked out of the door and said with a smile: "God bless, mother and daughter are safe. Brothers, please leave now. I will take care of you for a few days. I will treat you to a drink."
Everyone outside just heard the baby crying and Wang Po talking, and they already knew that they had a daughter. Now they heard that nothing happened in front of Tamamo, and they were all overjoyed. Li Kui said happily: "If Tieniu sees it, not only God will bless you, but also God will bless you." My brother is so majestic that even ghosts and gods dare not approach him, and he protects my sister-in-law's delivery smoothly."
As soon as he spoke, An Daoquan nodded repeatedly: "Brother Tieniu's words are not groundless. Before Brother Wu entered the room, I checked my sister-in-law's pulse. Her breath was almost cut off. It was a sign of a difficult childbirth. If it weren't for the power of my brother, he could deter ghosts and gods. , it is truly extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous!”
Everyone admires An Daoquan for his high medical skills. Now that he is saying these words, who is not convinced? Looking at Brother Wu again, I can't help but respect him even more.
At this time, Wang Po finished her work and came out of the room. Lao Cao said with a smile: "Wang Po has worked hard today, but she is a hero of my family!" He immediately ordered Hu Sanniang to reward Wang Po heavily. The amount of money he gave was more than what he had given before delivering his son.
Fortunately, Hu Sanniang had a generous nature and knew that Lao Cao was in a different state of mind as he was almost separated from her today, so she didn't care about the generous reward. She also held Wang Po's hand and said many words of thanks.
Wang Po accompanied Tamamo Mae to fight hard for seven or eight hours. She was already exhausted. Now that she heard the reward, her spirits suddenly lifted. She laughed like a hen laying eggs. Everyone saw it funny, and An Daoquan couldn't help it. Praise: "Although a beautiful woman is old, she still feels that flowers are beautiful. A beautiful woman who is old still feels that flowers are more pleasing to the eye."
He almost smashed the signboard today. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel agitated. His voice was a little louder, and it had already reached Wang Po's ears.
Wang Po was suddenly startled, stopped laughing, looked at An Daoquan in surprise, and thought: Is this troublemaker trying to trick me? He has great medical skills and will be able to afford food and clothing throughout his life. He is also a close confidant of the officials in Wuhan University, and his future is increasingly promising... He has only been a strict man for half his life, so will he end up capsizing in his old age?
I had mixed feelings for a while, and I didn't know what thoughts had passed through my mind. It was just a pair of old and wonderful eyes that pricked An Daoquan's eyes fiercely. The miracle doctor suddenly had an enjoyable cold war out of thin air.
Fang Jinzhi was pregnant with Liujia. She didn't know how powerful she was before. Today, after seeing the miserable situation in Tamamo, she was more frightened than others. Now she stepped forward and took Lao Cao's hand: "Husband, when I give birth in the future, can you also come into the room and watch over me?" "
Before Lao Cao could agree, he saw Fang Baihua shaking his head and laughing: "This stupid girl..." He stepped forward and pulled Fang Jinzhi aside, and spoke quickly in her ear. Even though Lao Cao had a very good hearing, he could only hear "... ...big mouth...scare him...if you don't get close to him..." A few words, I don't know what they mean.
Fang Jinzhi looked surprised, but somewhat half-believing. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "Then I will observe how my husband treats sister Tamamo after she recovers, and then I will see if I want to listen to you..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps. When everyone saw it, it was Deng Fei who came!
Tong Guan had previously mobilized troops to gather at Daming Mansion in Hebei Province, and Deng Fei had gone with Mu Hong and others. Now that he suddenly came back, everyone knew that something was fishy.
Fang Baihua sighed: "That's all, this person looks anxious. I'm afraid something will happen again. It's hard to tell whether your husband will still be in Qingzhou when you give birth to your child."
This is exactly: How can a fox girl not love her son? But Lao Cao pities his wife even more. A thousand pieces of gold are joyful in the palm of a pearl, and the wind from the north raises the war flag.
