Chapter 69
Ever since she found out that Shen Xi was pregnant, Eli became very self-conscious. Every time Shen Xi needs to do laundry, pick fruits, or even chop vegetables, he will be taken over by Eli immediately. If it wasn't because he didn't know how to cook, he might even have to cook. Fortunately, Shen Xi's right to make pastries has not been deprived, but under Eli's objection, the amount of cakes is reduced. Shen Xi priced the cakes at 1 copper coin, even though they were no longer free, many people still came to buy them. Shen Xi's greatest pleasure every day is counting coins.
According to Noah's instructions, Eli paid great attention to Shen Xi's diet and rest, even giving up his favorite exercise in bed. It's a pity that Shen Xi never brought himself into the position of a pregnant woman, and didn't care much about such things. At first he was skeptical, and even felt a little awkward, but as his belly grew bigger day by day, and he felt more and more tired and lethargic, he had to believe in the reality of the pregnancy.
The belly is very soft, every time Shen Xi touches it, he feels a little unbelievable: Is there really a new life in his belly? When I think of this, I have a very strange feeling in my heart.
In this foreign land, it is not that he does not desire to have the flesh and blood of himself and his beloved. But in addition to longing, there is an uncontrollable feeling of panic, how will he give birth to this child? Noah said it was a natural birth, and he felt that there was no place where he could give birth naturally. Is it possible to start from there... It feels very messy when I think about it. Eli also sensed his panic, but it was his first experience with the birth of a child, so he didn't know how to comfort Shen Xi. All he could do was to hold Shen Xi in his arms, and use his arms to give him warmth and support.
Shen Xi also discovered that every time he was in Eli's arms, his mood would calm down. But he is a big man, so he ran over to snuggle in Eli's arms at every turn, which was still a bit awkward, so every time he turned into a little silver rabbit and rubbed against him. No, on a warm and sunny afternoon, Shen Xi felt his mood rising again, so he put down the book in his hand, changed into the appearance of a little silver rabbit, and jumped out.
Eli was squinting his eyes under the baobab tree to enjoy the shade, Shen Xi rubbed over and squatted in front of his chin. Shen Xi was originally a little bulging little silver rabbit, even if she was pregnant, she would not show it. When nesting on the ground, it is still a small ball the size of a palm, very cute.
Eli opened his golden eyes, and wanted to touch his partner's belly, but found that his paws were much bigger than his. He turned into a human form, scooped up Shen Xi with both hands, and hugged Shen Xi into his arms. Shen Xi's small body was soft, and Eli stretched out his hand to gently place it on his soft abdomen. In fact, if you touch it lightly, you can still feel a small raised thing inside. About the size of a quail egg, with two small round shapes.
"It should be two babies." Yi Lai said softly while holding Shen Xi.
Hearing this, Shen Xi's cute ears moved, and he took human form, and asked blankly, "How do you know?"
"I touched it," Eli said with a light smile, "When you became a rabbit, you can touch it." The ones that come out are about this size." As he spoke, he gestured: "There are two."
"It can't be twins, right?" Shen Xi said casually.
Eli sighed leisurely: "Maybe."
Shen Xi lay on Eli's lap and was drowsy. Anyway, she was about to give birth, and it didn't make much difference if she gave birth to one or two. Since pregnancy, he has experienced lethargy symptoms from time to time. Seeing that he was sleepy, Eli patted his back gently to lull him to sleep.
The two guarded the quiet world, and both rested. But at this time, the palace of the Moon Clan was in an uproar.
Dange frowned tightly, staring at the gauntlet in his hand. Uncharacteristically, Hebrew didn't show a smile on his face, and looked around at the elders with his chin propped up. The elders all looked dignified, sighed, and said nothing.
One day later, the news that the Snake Clan asked the Moon Clan to hand over twenty marriageable females spread to every household like wings. Everyone in the Moon Clan felt angry and insulted, so naturally no one wanted to compromise. Even if the Snake Clan withdraws their rude request at this time, a battle is inevitable.
As a peace-loving modern person who has never experienced war and only watched war movies, Shen Xi is very worried.
"Eli, is it really going to fight like everyone said?" When Shen Xi was sitting on a chair outside selling pastries, he was filled with righteous indignation when he heard what they said, as if a war was about to break out. Even if the man has the blood of loving the battlefield in his bones, he also clearly knows how heavy the price of war will be.
"Of course, the Snake Clan is a blatant provocation." Eli stretched out his hand to hold him in his arms: "But don't be afraid, the Moon Clan will not lose." Even the winner has to pay a heavy
price in war, Shen Shen Xi read silently. Instead of leaning quietly in Eli's arms, he raised his head and asked Eli seriously, "Will you also go to the battlefield?" "
Well, it's my responsibility to protect the Moon Clan." Although Eli didn't It was established in the guard team, but to protect the safety of the Moon Clan, his son as the patriarch should also bear the brunt of it.
Shen Xi was a little disappointed, although he had already guessed the answer. Looking at Eli's serious expression, he felt that no matter what he said, he would not be shaken. Sighing, Shen Xi leaned on his shoulder.
In the evening, Shen Xi heard the sound of drums in the distance.
"I seem to hear the sound of drums, who is playing the instrument?" He asked curiously.
"It should be a member of the guards. We will also go to the square in front of the palace." Eli looked in the direction of the palace, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.
When the two arrived, the square was already full of people. Shen Xi was originally worried that he would be squeezed to the brim, but he didn't expect that when people saw Eli and him coming over, they all consciously moved out of the way. It was difficult for Shen Xi to ignore the many gazes on his face and stomach, so he could only pretend to be nonchalant and continue walking forward, but in fact, being stared at like this made him feel uneasy walking.
Listening closely, the drumbeat became more and more intense. Shen Xi followed the sound of the drum, and there were three big shirtless men in the center of the square, beating the drum frantically. There are more than a dozen people around them dancing wildly to the beat of drums. Their dancing postures are full of explosive force and strength. Just watching them makes people's blood boil.
The square is very noisy, and occasionally there will be excited animal sounds. Almost everyone was talking about this imminent war, and there was no fear on their faces, as if they had already won. Shen Xi looked at the excited red faces of the crowd around him, and felt that he was out of place.
Tanger and Hebrew in the palace naturally also heard the sound. Dan Ge's brows were tightly furrowed. A hundred years ago, they had a great battle with the Snake Clan. Although the Moon Clan won in the end, they paid a heavy price. He still remembers the scene where blood flowed everywhere. Snakes are pervasive creatures. At that time, the Moon Clan was heavily guarded, but the Snake Clan sneaked into the city from the sewer pipe unexpectedly, and the most poisonous five poisonous snakes came to attack. Those with weak resistance will be bitten and die on the spot, and those with strong resistance will be paralyzed at the bitten part. But he will never hand over his clansmen in exchange for peace, this battle is imperative!
