Third Aunt Du blew the whistle three times. Everyone waited for two minutes, but there was no movement anywhere.
"Master, is this whistle useful?" Xiao Wu asked.
"There should be." Third Aunt Du said with some uncertainty, "Back then, I made an agreement with their king that if something were to happen in the future, we would use this as a communication signal. I tried it twice, and it worked. "
"But you've already boasted for so long, and there's still no movement. Could it be that they're no longer here?" Bei Gong Tang asked.
"That's hard to say. I have been getting along well with them for more than ten years. I hope nothing bad happens to them. I'll try again. "Third Aunt Du said worriedly.
After that, she blew the whistle again.
"There's movement." Sima Youyue looked at the calm lake and said.
Just as she finished speaking, a small head poked out from the side of the lake and looked around carefully. Seeing Third Aunt Du on the shore, the little idiot rushed out of the water.
"San Niang is here!" The small body was completely out of the water. It was actually a round silkworm. When the spirit silkworm saw Du Sanniang, it immediately pounced over.
"Little Fatty, why did you go into the lake? Where are the others? "Third Aunt Du reached out to catch Little Fatty and asked.
"Sanniang, Sanniang."
"Third Madam, we're here!"
"Third Madam is here!"
Spirit Silkworms emerged from the water one after another. For a moment, the surface of the lake was densely covered with Spirit Silkworms.
"So many spirit silkworms!"
When everyone saw so many spirit silkworms, they were all extremely astonished.
"Little Xin, Little White, why did you all go into the lake?" Sanniang asked.
"Sanniang, a lot of people have come to the forest recently. Many of our neighbors have been captured or killed. The King wants us to hide at the bottom of the lake. Luckily, we hid in time. There were a lot of people behind us, and we were scared to death. "Little Fatty spun around twice in Du Sanniang's hands and said.
"Where is your king?" Sima You Ming asked.
"The king is still in the water. The Queen is pregnant with a baby again and is currently in labor. "Little Fatty said," The Queen said that the baby born from the spiritual embryo this time will be very powerful! "
"How can these silkworms live in the water?" Fatty Qu asked Sima Youyue in confusion.
"Where is this place?" Sima Youyue glanced at him.
"The Dark Forest?"
"Where is the Dark Forest?"
"Primordial Lands."
"In the Primordial Lands, what's so strange about Spirit Silkworms that can live in water? Why are you making such a fuss? "
"That's true." Fatty Qu rubbed his head. "Even the Ringed Silkworm can live in the poisonous miasma, so there's nothing strange about the Spirit Silkworm that can live in the water."
"Oh no! Not good! "A small humanoid figure came out of the water and shouted.
"What happened?"
"King, she can't give birth to a king! I've used up all my spiritual energy, and I can't hold on much longer! "The little one said anxiously.
"What?!" The spirit silkworms in the water and the people on the shore cried out. The spirit silkworms wanted to dive down to take a look, but they were stopped by a force.
"The Queen can't handle so many of you going to see her." A one-foot tall little person with a white beard came out of the water. She was the one who stopped everyone just now.
"Grandpa Sun, how is Ruoli?"
"Very bad." The white bearded old man waved his sleeves, and those spirit silkworms flew out of the water and landed steadily on the shore.
"Elder Sun, Ruoli, she …" Third Aunt Du was very worried. "Can you let me take a look at her situation?"
"The Queen can't move in the water now, and you can't stay in the water for too long. There's nothing you can do if you go down. " Elder Sun said to her, then turned to the other spirit silkworms. "Hurry and go to the forest to find anything that can increase your spiritual energy or prolong your life! Go quickly! "
Sima Youyue saw that Third Aunt Du was very anxious. "Third Aunt, I'm a Pill Master, and can stay in the water for a long time. I'll go down and take a look."
Elder Sun and the other spirit silkworms looked over at the same time. Third Aunt Du excitedly grabbed Sima Youyue's hand. "That's right, you're a Pill Master, so you might have a way. Elder Sun, let her go down and take a look at Ruoli. "
"Her?" Elder Sun looked at Sima Youyue suspiciously.
"She's my nephew. Let her take a look, and she might be able to save Ruoli." Third Aunt Du said. "Elder Sun, you don't have any other ideas, right?"
"I want to go too." Little Seven grabbed Sima Youyue's hand, emphasizing her presence.
Elder Sun hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Follow me."
Elder Sun returned to the water, and Sima Youyue brought Little Seven down. One had eaten the Water Avoidance Pearl, while the other was an unknown species. Anyway, being underwater didn't affect them much.
Sima Youyue followed Elder Sun down for a long time. She originally thought that it was just a small lake in the forest, but there was a whole new world below. It was so big that it was strange.
Elder Sun brought them to the bottom of the lake. On a high platform, a huge spirit silkworm lay on it, its abdomen bulging. Because of the difficult birth, its entire body seemed to be weak, floating on the surface of the water.
"Elder Sun. Did you get something good? "A one foot tall little girl asked.
"Not yet. This is Sanniang's nephew. He said that he's an alchemist and is here to take a look at the Queen. "Elder Sun said.
Once they heard that it was Sanniang's nephew, everyone's resistance was reduced. They opened up a gap for Sima Youyue to take a look at Ruo Li.
Sima Youyue swam over, reaching out her hand to touch the bulging abdomen. Ruo Li seemed to sense it, and opened her eyes slightly.
"Queen, let me check for you." Sima Youyue inserted a bit of spirit energy into Ruo Li's abdomen. The spirit energy first circled around her abdomen, then circled around her body.
"How is it? Is there a way? "Elder Sun asked anxiously.
"According to the time of your spirit silkworms, this queen isn't due to give birth yet, right? Why would she give birth in advance? "Sima Youyue asked.
"She was hurt by a human, that's why she gave birth in advance." A little person beside Ruo Li said.
"Do you have a way or not?"
"I have a way, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to accept it." Sima Youyue said.
"What way?" Elder Sun asked.
"Contract."
"Contract?" Hearing Sima Youyue's words, everyone present shouted.
"How is that possible!"
"No, definitely not."
Before she could say the reason, the spirit silkworms all raised their objections.
How could their Queen form a contract with a human and become a human's contracted beast!
Sima Youyue wasn't in a hurry. She took out a pill and fed it to Ruo Li. Seeing that her life force had stopped flowing, she then turned to Elder Sun and the rest and said, "You have less than a day to consider this matter."
"A day?"
"That's right." Sima Youyue said, "Her life force is flowing away, not only because of the birth, but also because of this."
She pointed at the bulge, her meaning obvious.
