blood contract

"father……"

Ling Ling's inaudible murmurs in his sleep interrupted Hu Yanlin's thoughts.

Humph, it’s embarrassing for such an old man to dream of his father! I usually look calm and steady, but I don’t want to be like a ‘baby’ inside.

Lingling's head "drilled" towards his chest from time to time, her brows were slightly furrowed, her breathing was a little rapid, her long eyelashes were trembling irregularly, she was obviously having a dream that made her unhappy, her red lips were slightly open, as if she wanted to She said something and was forced back by her.

Hu Yanlin put Lingling on the bed, placed his forehead lightly on Lingling's forehead, lowered his eyes and whispered a few spells to get rid of nightmares.

As a child, whenever I had nightmares, my mother would do this.

Feeling that Lingling's breathing gradually stabilized, Hu Yanlin stopped chanting the incantation. He opened his eyes, and what came into view was Lingling's beautiful red lips that looked like blood.

Boom boom boom!

Hu Yanlin's heart beat uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to kiss him.

"..." Looking at it, his blood surged up. Hu Yanlin turned his face slightly sideways by some strange mistake, and slowly tried to press his lips up.

"Take your life!"

With a muffled sound of "dong", Hu Yanlin was punched out of the tent by Lingling in the nightmare.

The pain made Hu Yanlin wake up instantly. Thinking back to the scene just now, his heart suddenly went cold. Am I crazy? Actually want to kiss a man? Fortunately, I didn't kiss him!

I patted my chest to comfort myself, and reminded myself secretly again: I like girls with big breasts! Big breasts, extra big ones.

"Lin Zi, what's going on? Did you get beaten up by Ling Boy?"

"Didn't I just see you carrying him into the tent while he was sleeping? Why, couldn't he have been found out for his evil intentions?"

"Hahaha... nothing will happen between two men."

"You brat, what are you doing? Can you let him have a good rest?"

When Lao Gao saw Hu Yanlin flying out of the tent with his cheeks swollen, many warriors laughed and teased him, and some warriors lectured him.

He stood up numbly, touched his swollen cheek and said, "You, what are you thinking about? It's that bastard who dreams about hitting people. He's such a cruel guy!"

"..." Everyone.

~~

By the stream in Youlong Village, five girls of similar age were wading and playing.

A girl in blue sitting by the river said: "In my opinion, Rouyin, you should take the initiative and tie up the boy Ling and drag him into the woods to get the matter done!"

"That's right. As long as you have his baby, you're still afraid that he won't be good to you." Another girl with big almond eyes responded, shaking her toes.

Dongfang Rouyin's little face turned crimson when she heard the two girls' bold words, and she said weakly, "No, that's not good. Don't girls have to be more reserved?"

A girl with a heroic spirit waved her hand and said: "Reserved? That's what you foreigners do. In our place, if you don't strike quickly, the good things will not be there. If you are good, you have to strike first to gain advantage."

The girl in blue is called Dou Yueni, the girl with big almond eyes is called Luo Yi, and the girl with full of heroic spirit is called Ma Xinxian.

All three of them were friends that Dongfang Rouyin made in Youlong Village.

Compared to those people in the palace who flatter and pretentious all day long, Dongfang Rouyin prefers their straightforward and true temperament.

In fact, Dongfang Rouyin was also worried that Lingling would be taken advantage of by another girl. Especially recently, she kept hearing from Yu Xiaoshuai that there were girls asking for information about Lingling.

In the past ten days, she had not seen Lingling, and she did not know where he had gone. If his things were not still in the house, Dongfang Rouyin would have thought that Lingling had abandoned them.

"...But, I can't beat him. Why, tie him up?"

The three girls looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "I know whether you are a thief or not, we have already prepared it for you!"

After saying this, they all took out a bottle of wine and stuffed it into her arms.

"Three pots of 'Shenyou' will definitely make that kid drunk, it's up to you." Ma Xinxian smiled evilly.

Dongfang Rouyin's eyes widened, "Three pots? I heard that three cups can make people happy for nine days!!!"

Dou Yueni said with a joking smile: "Isn't that kid very powerful? I'm afraid that one pot won't be able to knock him down, so I prepared three pots for you."

"Yes, yes. The boy was very suspicious, so he changed the wine bottle to an ordinary one, and also added other wine to the wine so that he couldn't smell it. We can only help you so far, and then it's all up to you. !" Roy said, patting Dongfang Rouyin's shoulder to encourage her.

"..." Dongfang Rouyin looked at the three bottles of wine in her arms. She didn't know what she thought of, her cheeks began to heat up, and she twisted her body, "You are so annoying!"

Bang!Bang!

Several salutes were heard in the air.

Ma Xinxian exclaimed excitedly, "They are back, and my brother Chong is back too." After saying that, she waved to the three of them, "Let's go, let's welcome them."

The four people ran to the entrance of the village, and what they received was not a "welcoming greeter", but people busy helping to support and carry the wounded.

"What's going on?" Ma Xinxian frowned and squeezed into the crowd. She squeezed in front of an old woman and asked, "Aunt An, what happened?"

"Hey!" the old woman said to her with a sad face: "There was something wrong with the sacrifice to the gods. More than 20 people were injured. It's not clear what happened."

The sacrifice to the gods went awry! This is a huge bad thing for the people in the village!

Luo Yi, Ma Xinxian, and Dou Yueni couldn't help but become nervous. Standing on tiptoes, his eyes kept looking towards the priest team.

"Lingling? Why did he come back with the God Sacrifice Team?" Dou Yueni asked in confusion.

Also confused was Dongfang Rouyin, who was nowhere to be seen. It turned out that he had gone outside the village.

Aunt An replied: "I heard from my son that thanks to Ling Boy's help this time, otherwise they might not be able to come back this time."

What?

what's the situation?

The four of them looked at each other, unable to believe what they were hearing.

... ...

In the priest's office, the three elders learned what happened from what everyone said. Mrs. Yao left Lingling alone, and the two of them talked about something in the house for a long time.

The next day, the sky was bright.

After Dongfang Rouyin finished washing her clothes, she quietly slipped out of her residence and came to the vicinity of the priest's office. I haven't seen him for more than ten days. When I saw him yesterday, I felt that he was haggard and thinner, and I felt heartbroken.

Generally, no one is allowed to enter the priest's house unless there is anything going on, let alone outsiders. Normally, the guards are two second-level monks, but starting yesterday, they were replaced by four third-level monks.

Dongfang Rouyin bit her lip, a little angry. After all, Lingling had rescued their people, but why was he treating them like prisoners?

"Sister Rouyin."

A low voice came, Dongfang Rouyin turned around and saw Yu Xiaoshuai sticking out half of his head behind a wall and waving to her to come over.

Dongfang Rouyin crouched and trotted over, "Xiao Shuai, you... um!! Are you there too?"

"Yeah." Hu Yanlin responded quietly and said no more.

Seeing the dark circles under their eyes, Dongfang Rouyin asked: "...You two squatted here all night?"

They both nodded at the same time, looking exhausted both physically and mentally and too lazy to say another word.

Yu Xiaoshuai's cultivation level is low, and he stayed up all night to look like this. Dongfang Rouyin figured it out, but Hu Yanlin shouldn't!

... Could it be possible that something unexpected happened to Lingling! ! !

Thinking of this, Dongfang Rouyin's expression changed drastically, and she was about to rush out when she wanted to get up.

If my husband has any shortcomings, I will definitely let you all be buried with him!

Yu Xiaoshuai grabbed her and said, "Sister Rouyin, don't get excited. We've been waiting all night and there's still no result yet?"

"Yes. Why are you so excited? We are the most reasonable and will not mess around!" Hu Yanlin turned his head and glanced at her at this time.

Only then did Dongfang Rouyin see Hu Yanlin's other cheek was bruised and swollen, and his eyes were full of exhaustion.

Dongfang Rouyin then remembered that they would be exhausted after working all night and traveling. It seemed that I was too anxious and overthinking.

"Can you tell me what happened during your trip?"

... ...

There was silence in the side room of the priest's office, with Mrs. Yao and Lingling looking at each other.

In the middle of the small table, Lingling was holding ten gems that they had given her - sun stones. And Mrs. Yao's hand held her hand tightly to prevent Lingling's hand from taking back.

Although Mrs. Yao is old, her energy is no less than that of young people. After talking to Lingling for a long night, she is still energetic. She gets entangled with her on small things, with a half-smile but not a smile on her face, with a look of 'Let's see who can outlast whom'. .

This made Lingling think for a while that the old lady was a reclusive master who had trouble with her appearance? Why would he be so good if he didn't have enough energy?

After careful inspection, there was no sign of disguise.

Why! Forget it, she can see the disguise of an expert now.

In terms of calmness of mind, young people are really not as good as older people. In the end, Lingling was defeated.

"I really don't need you to repay me. You also returned the gems to me. Can't I just leave?"

Old Mrs. Yao smiled, "How can that be done? Although ten sun stones are precious, they are not worth the fifth level warriors in our village, but we also have our own set of rules for our benefactors."

"You are always trying to force others to do something difficult."

"How come? It's the first time for men to get married, and the first time for women to get married. You only need to stay in the village for two years and leave behind a son and a half."

Lingling frowned, "I'm still a baby and can't have children."

"We have plenty of time to wait for you to grow up, not to mention there are many good men in the village, you can choose from them." Mrs. Yao still had a warm smile on her face.

She will never miss the genes of excellent people!

"..." Lingling felt that if she continued, she would still fall into an endless loop. She suddenly pulled her hand away and stood up and walked out, "I refuse. I will leave here after I compete with the strongest as promised."

After saying that, the person walked to the door, opened the door and left.

When Dongfang Rouyin, Hu Yanlin and Yu Xiaoshuai finally waited for Lingling to walk out of the priest's office, they saw Lingling walking away with a displeased look on his face before they could step forward.

The three people looked at each other, not knowing why.

Yu Xiaoshuai looked confused, "Master, what's going on? Why are you so angry?"

"..." Dongfang Rouyin pouted, making her husband angry. Cutting off a hundred heads was not enough to calm him down. She pulled up Yu Xiaoshuai and said harshly: "Xiaoshuai, let's go."

After that, he forcefully dragged Xiao Shuai away.

Hu Yanlin was confused. He didn't know why the girl Rouyin, who was fine just now, became angry in the blink of an eye.

A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea. How elusive!

Watching the two people walking away, he scratched his head and turned around and walked towards his home.

Lingling was resting in the house, and Dongfang Rouyin, Yu Xiaoshuai and the three children did not disturb her.

Dongfang Rouyin originally wanted to show off the cooking skills she learned from Luo Yi and the others, but was decisively rejected by Yu Xiaoshuai and the three children, so she could only start with chatting with the children.

Hey, don't let it go if you don't want to, Xiaoshuai's cooking skills are still very good. As long as Lingling drinks... Yeah! I feel so ashamed just thinking about it.

The soft and waxy voice of Niu Niu beside me came, "Sister Rouyin, my clothes are about to be torn by you."

This dress is her favorite.

"..." Dongfang Rouyin was busy apologizing. To cover up her embarrassment, she asked Yu Xiaoshuai to add some more appetizers.

The aroma of vegetables wakes Lingling from her sleep. She stretched out and walked out of the house, "What are you cooking? It smells so good."

"Master, wake up." Yu Xiaoshuai and his group who were sitting in the courtyard heard Lingling's voice, and they all ran to her, pulling and pushing her to sit on the main seat of the dining table, "This is what the disciples specially prepared for you. I'm making a feast for the wind. Master, are you tired? Come on, get to work."

After saying this, Yu Xiaoshuai beat his back, Niuniu, Yaozai and Nuonuo beat their legs and rubbed their arms, Dongfang Rouyin picked up vegetables and fed them.

so attentive?

"Is something wrong?" Lingling asked.

"No!" Yu Xiaoshuai shook his head.

Dongfang Rouyin smiled warmly, her cheeks flushed, and she brought a chopstick of food to Lingling's mouth, "You have been tired these days." Her husband almost cried out.

She originally wanted to tell a few people that she was leaving, but looking at the food on the table and the smiling faces, Lingling decided to wait until she finished eating.

"..." Lingling opened her mouth to eat the food, nodded and asked Niu Niu, "Have you three eaten?"

The three children replied very sensibly: "We are not hungry. Master eats first and then we eat."

"I am not your master." Suddenly, Lingling's eyes sharpened, and he shouted loudly: "... Everyone sit down."

"..." A few people were frightened and sat down obediently, lowering their heads fearfully and not daring to speak.

"Food tastes good when we eat it together. Do you understand?... Let's have dinner." Lingling said almost in a commanding tone.

"Yes." Several people answered in unison.

When the delicious food came into their mouth, several people started chatting, laughing, and eating happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious and relaxed.

Dongfang Rouyin kept picking up dishes and toasting to Lingling. Seeing that the three bottles of wine were almost finished, Lingling's face turned red and showed no signs of being drunk.

This, this, this, this, what should we do!

Dongfang Rouyin secretly marveled at how Lingling could drink so well.

"Master, I will also drink with you." Yu Xiaoshuai filled a glass for himself, but when he was about to offer it, Dongfang Rouyin snatched it away, "You are so young, what kind of wine should you drink?"

Hearing this, Yu Xiaoshuai was unhappy, "I'm old enough to drink..." He didn't dare to continue what he wanted to say, because Dongfang Rouyin was staring at him with a kind of 'death gaze' Him, making his whole body shiver.

"Drinking a little bit of wine will make you so angry." Yu Xiaoshuai muttered in a low voice through the sound of eating rice.

Lingling smiled and said: "This wine is strong, it is good for you not to let you drink it."

Yu Xiaoshuai looked dissatisfied.

Lingling dipped the end of her chopsticks into some wine, put it to Yu Xiaoshuai's mouth, and said, "Don't be dissatisfied. If you don't believe me, try it."

"Just try it." Yu Xiaoshuai vowed and licked it.

Snapped!

He hit his head on the table and became drunk and unconscious.
