“Due to constant war, it's hard to make a living. The Thousand Elephants Tribe was annexed by another Jackal Tribe a few years ago. We and Li Man got separated. Ke Mu joined a caravan traveling between the East and West Continents, and I followed him here to live... Life here is peaceful and prosperous, so we settled down.”
“How have you been these years?”
“Not bad, getting better and better.”
Sang Luo learned during their conversation that A-Ya hadn't taken another beastman husband. Their life was busier than other families, but still sufficient. However, the disadvantage of having fewer beastmen husbands became apparent during times of war.
During the war, A-Ya happened to be pregnant, which made those days very difficult. Fortunately, she made it through.
“You're really lucky to have married such a good female, A-Ya,” Sang Luo exclaimed.
After so many years, Ke Mu's gaze towards his partner was still full of love, guilt, and happiness. “I haven't done well enough. If A-Ya had taken a few more male beasts, life would definitely be easier, and she wouldn't have to do everything herself and come down to the fields to help me.”
A-Ya smiled, “He gave me his life back then. I don't want any other male beasts in this life. I just want to be with him, have a few litters of cubs, and live out this life.”
“Ordinary, but precious, a love that is hard to find in this world,” Sang Luo said with emotion.
Two half-grown teenagers ran over from a distance, “Father! Mother!”
“These are your cubs too?”
A-Ya hugged a little female cub who ran over, wiping the dirt off her little face, “Yes, I've had three litters of cubs, seven males and one female. The three biggest cubs have all transformed and can help with things around the house. Hunting and farming are no problem. I'm much more relaxed than before.”
“The fields I saw when I came over, are they all yours?” Sang Luo asked, looking in the direction the two cubs had come from.
“Yes, in the beginning, there was only Ke Mu in the family, and it was difficult to make a living just by hunting. Later, we moved from the tribe to the city. There was no shortage of strong hunting beastmen in the city, but I found that the supply of grain and vegetables in the city couldn't meet the demand, but no one was planting them. The noble females in the city didn't work in the fields, and the male beasts disliked the low returns from planting vegetables, so the two of us discussed it and rented a piece of farmland outside the city at a low price.” A-Ya smiled, “I didn't expect that the money earned from planting vegetables and grain was more than hunting, enough for our family's expenses. At the end of each year, we can save a lot of beast crystals. We've saved quite a bit of wealth over the years!”
Sang Luo, “A-Ya has foresight! While there are few people planting now, you two should buy as much land as possible. When your family can't handle it, you can hire people to expand the farm.”
“Luo Luo has enlightened me! Farming is also physical work, but it's far less than hunting. Ke Mu and I can hire some elderly beastmen and disabled beastmen in the city who don't have hunting abilities. There are many of them in the city! By then, the scale of the farm will definitely grow bigger and bigger!”
“Mother, you're thinking too beautifully! All the crops on our farm are gone! You and Father, go and take a look!” Another little male cub ran over and shouted loudly.
Ke Mu and A-Ya were shocked and hurried to the farm.
Sang Luo also followed.
There was a drought disaster beast of the Half-Step Beast Emperor level, and its power swept through the area.
All the seedlings on the farm withered and died.
The forests outside the city also withered.
The riverbeds dried up, the land cracked, and the disaster beast almost ate several beastmen who came to rescue.
Sang Luo killed it with a sword, saving it from harming the people further.
Unfortunately, the damage caused by the disaster beast is difficult to recover in a short time. This year's crops were already tight, and the failure of the farmland was like adding fuel to the fire.
A-Ya collapsed to the ground, covering her face and crying bitterly.
Ke Mu hugged her and comforted her, the beast crystals they had saved in previous years were enough to get through the next year.
“Luo Luo!”
Lou Xian Yue and Si Ye felt the energy fluctuations of the disaster beast here, and came to find that she had solved the disaster beast.
Si Ye quickly asked, “How is it? Are you injured?”
“A small disaster beast can't do anything to me!” Sang Luo told them what happened.
Lou Xian Yue looked at the dozens of acres of damaged fertile land, also feeling sorry. Suddenly, his gaze fell on the little koi in Sang Luo's arms, and he whispered to her, “Luo Luo, do you remember the blessing talisman that the little koi gave you before? Do you still have it?”
“Yes, what's wrong?” Sang Luo took out the talisman from her space. It was the first gift her daughter gave her, and she kept it brand new.
“May this land have favorable weather and abundant harvests.”
After Lou Xian Yue whispered these words, the talisman instantly turned into a stream of light and scattered into the air.
Rain clouds quickly gathered in the sky, and a heavy rain began to fall.
The dry riverbeds flowed again, and the cracked land was also moisturized.
A-Ya was overwhelmed with surprise, “It's raining, this is really a timely rain from heaven! Quickly, quickly, Ke Mu, do we still have a lot of seeds left? Quickly plant them again, and we can still catch the next harvest!”
Ke Mu came back to his senses and hurried home to get the seeds.
Ke Mu and A-Ya didn't see Lou Xian Yue's little actions. Even if they saw it, they wouldn't think so much, thinking it was the blessing of the Beast God.
Sang Luo was shocked and came back to her senses, “The legendary power of blessing! Really amazing!”
She kissed the little koi in her arms fiercely, “Baby daughter, how many of these talismans do you still have in your hand? Take them all out for Mother and Father.”
The little koi ate her finger and opened her mouth sweetly, “Mother can have as many as she wants, I can draw them casually.”
“No need, there are many people with mixed eyes, just take out what you have in your hand now.”
The little koi took out a dozen from the Qiankun bag, “Here, they are all here, for Mother!”
Lou Xian Yue took the talisman one step ahead and nodded to Sang Luo, “Let me go.”
“Yes, it's good for you to go, attracting the eyes to you, so no one will pay attention to our daughter.”
Of course, the hard work is for the father to do.
Lou Xian Yue took the talisman to rescue the disaster area.
When Sang Luo went to find him at night, she saw the city lord leading the beastmen to kneel and salute him, shouting “Beast God” “Envoy” “High Priest” and so on, extremely devout.
Sang Luo waited for him to come back and asked, “What's going on?”
Lou Xian Yue touched his hair, a little embarrassed, “I told the city lord and the elders that this is a talisman blessed by the Beast God, and someone regarded me as the deceased High Priest of the Beast God. I didn't explain, let them go.”
“……” This is really a wonderful misunderstanding, but it saves trouble, just found them a reason, and then tell everyone that this is a talisman given by the Beast God.
Sang Luo, “I once heard the name of the High Priest of the Beast God, so the person has passed away, no wonder I haven't seen it since I came to the East Continent for so long, and I thought the High Priest was living in seclusion.”
“Well, it was a matter of earlier years, I heard that Fenghuang was still a disciple of the High Priest.”
The situation in the city stabilized.
Sang Luo patrolled the city and saw an old witch doctor diagnosing a pregnant female. She hesitated for a moment and asked the old witch doctor to take her pulse as well.
“Congratulations, noble female, it's a happy pulse!”
“……” Unexpected, but expected.
Besides Quan Jin, she has done it with all the beastmen husbands, whose child will this be?
A faint and pleasant voice came from the door,
“It's my child.”
