I don’t know how many years ago this version of the story was circulated. Now, it’s not ten years and ten years, but a hundred years.
In the past, the "hundred years" in the title of this poem was just an exaggerated rhetoric of bards, but now, it has been a real hundred years.
From the extraordinary year to the present... My lord, she has been waiting for you for 1 years, a full century. "
Asuka's voice was soft, "My lord, I believe she is still waiting for you in the north, and I also believe that you will find the Dream Watching Shelter and see her again."
"..."
Li Guanqi turned his back to Asuka, silent.
long silence.
It's just that his eye sockets are already moist.
And Asuka didn't make any more noises, the only sound in the room was the baby girl's sucking sound, and the occasional babbling and laughing.
"Wow... woohoo..."
Gradually, the baby girl's voice became smaller and smaller until it completely became a small snore.
"She fell asleep?"
Li Guanqi finally spoke again, but his voice was particularly hoarse.
"Ah."
Asuka responded, and then there was a rustling sound of straightening clothes, "My lord, you can turn around now."
Li Guanqi then turned around.
I saw Asuka looking down at the baby girl in her arms, with a mother's gentle smile all over her face.
And the baby girl fell into a deep sleep after eating and drinking enough.
"So cute."
Asuka lightly tapped the tip of the baby girl's nose with her right index finger, then raised her head and looked at Li Guanqi with a smile, "My lord, what's her name?"
"no name."
Li Guanqi shook his head, "I'm not her father, and I'm not qualified to name her. I just rescued her. As for the right to name her, it should be left to the people who raised her."
Tomorrow Flower was taken aback.
"Thank you for feeding her." Li Guanqi said seriously.
"It's okay." Asuka smiled.
"People from the Minghua Tribe..."
Li Guanqi frowned slightly, "Why do you discriminate against these children so much? Children of the devil? Is there any legend behind this?"
"A lot."
Asuka sighed softly, and said sharply: "The essence of this matter is actually that those parents wanted to alleviate the guilt in their hearts.
This is impossible. In the wasteland, resources are always scarce, and the lower-class people cannot support the disabled. The unqualified labor force is... unaffordable for the lower-class families in the wasteland.
But which parent can bear to abandon their child?
But they have to do it in order to survive.
Over time, all kinds of legends have been spread, nothing more than nonsense about the deformed child as a demon, a ghost, and the like.
The purpose is to alleviate the parents' own sense of guilt, so that they can abandon them with peace of mind. "
Speaking of this, Asuka rubbed the center of her brows wearily, and sighed: "But if you tell too many lies, it becomes the truth. Decades have passed, and now it has been 100 years of Transcendence. The deformed child is the so-called 'child of the devil' The saying has become deeply ingrained in people's minds."
"So the essence of this matter is actually those parents who feel that raising a disabled child is not worth the loss, so they made up all kinds of excuses in order to abandon the child with peace of mind."
Li Guanqi said in a deep voice.
"Ah."
Asuka nodded slightly.
"Then their perceptions will change very quickly."
Li Guanqi looked at Asuka seriously, with his right hand open, flames, ice, air currents, lightning... and so on. Energy of various attributes emerged in the palm of his hand and merged with each other.
"Um?!"
Asuka showed shock on her face, "Why do you have so many abilities?!"
"This is not a supernatural power."
Li Guanqi said calmly: "This is a spell, a spell, and the power of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
You must know that some spiritual technology can use spiritual power as energy.
But you also need to know that aura is not something that can only be controlled by machines.
People, too.
Every disabled child in the wasteland has the talent to control this kind of power. Therefore, disabled children are not unqualified labor force. Instead, they are a group of people who are stronger in some respects than superhumans with different blood. Extraordinary species! "
Asuka was stunned, her face full of disbelief.
"Correct."
Li Guanqi smiled, "Asuka, what you think in your heart is right now, in the near future, disabled children will get a high status and the respect they deserve.
And your... child who was born not long ago will also become one of them, providing his extraordinary power for the development of the Minghua Tribe. "
Asuka's complexion changed dramatically.
"I, you, you... how do you know?"
Chapter 297
"My lord... how do you know that my child is also disabled?"
Asuka looked down at the disabled baby girl of the Purple Leaf Tribe in her arms, then raised her head and looked at Li Guanqi with a complicated expression.
"That's a good guess."
Li Guanqi just smiled.
"..."
Tomorrow flowers want to talk but stop.
And Li Guanqi raised his right hand, once again demonstrating the ability of flames, water, ice, lightning, and various elemental forces to appear alternately.
"This is not a power, but a spell."
Li Guanqi looked at Asuka, and said seriously: "Your child, like me, can control spiritual power and cast spells."
"But you are not disabled."
Asuka's willow eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"I am an extraordinary person from 100 years ago."
Li Guanqi said calmly: "I can cross the two worlds, I am one of the [-] million people, we are special, but all the new humans born in the wasteland era are different... Do you believe it or not?
Ten years, at most ten years.
I will leave behind the knowledge of spells. When your child is more than ten years old, he will naturally learn it. By then, you will know everything. "
"ten years?"
Asuka turned her head, looked at the corner of the room, and gritted her teeth, "If there is a 16-year-old disabled child with normal intelligence, how long will it take for him to learn your spells?"
"Ok?"
Li Guanqi was slightly taken aback, but quickly figured it out, and then replied: "One day, it only takes one day, and he can prove to you that he can control spiritual power with his own body."
"Please come with me."
Asuka was still holding the baby girl from the Purple Leaf Tribe, turned around, and walked towards the corner of the room.
"Crack-"
She lightly fiddled with the candlestick on the corner wall, and then a crack opened in the wall, revealing a staircase leading to the upper floor.
Li Guanqi was a little surprised.
Asuka's room was originally located at the highest point of the castle, and at this time, it should be the space between the roof and the ceiling. Some people will make this space into a small pavilion for storage and the like.
But in any case, this is not suitable for human habitation.
However, when Li Guanqi followed Asuka's pace, walked up the high stairs and came to the pavilion, he saw a light blue translucent mask.
"A sound barrier?"
Li Guanqi looked around, and soon saw a palm-sized silver device on the wall, which looked a bit like a mobile phone.
This thing is attached to the wall, absorbing the spiritual power in the surrounding air all the time, supporting a sound barrier at all times to prevent the noise in the attic from being heard by the people downstairs.
Psionic device.
It should be a technological product that appeared in the extraordinary 1 year to the extraordinary 20 years.
In the pavilion covered by the soundproof barrier, there are piles of all kinds of paper books, which are arranged very neatly. In addition, there are some silver-white chips, which are also neatly stacked on the table. .
Deep in the pile of books is a deformed teenager.
He was wrapped in a black robe, but his body was hunched, and his spine was severely protruding, forcing him to maintain a hunched posture. The sleeve of his left arm was empty, and he obviously had no left arm.
But his right arm, probably at the elbow, actually grew another small fleshy palm, which looked deformed and terrifying.
Not only that, but his legs were also severely deformed, several times more exaggerated than the bandy legs, and the gap between the knees of his legs was simply a complete "circle".
nuclear radiation.
It is now 100 years after Transcendence, that is, 80 years after the end of the world, and the nuclear radiation in the air is still extremely terrifying. What is the distortion of one less hand?
This can only be said to be "ordinary".
At this time, the deformed boy was standing in front of a cradle, holding a rattle in his right hand and shaking it gently. Of course, due to the existence of the sound barrier, the sound that should have been "dong dong dong" could not be heard.
But he should be teasing the baby in the cradle.
"H-his name is Hualou."
Asuka covered her mouth, as if trying to hide her crying, but her moist eye sockets couldn't be covered no matter what.
What about the third-order alien blood superhuman?
What about the leader of the Minghua Tribe?
She is just a mother.
"Hualou's father refuses to recognize him, nor does he want to let him live."
Asuka couldn't hide her tears, "I can only let him take his grandfather, which is my father's surname, I can only... I can only..."
"So you can only keep him in this narrow pavilion."
Li Guanqi sighed softly, "The pressure from your husband and the pressure from the tribe's public opinion all make it difficult for you. You are the leader of the tribe and you have to take care of many things, so you can only hide the fact that the child is still alive and raise him here secretly. .
Then after 16 years, you recently mustered up the courage to have a child with your husband again, but the result has not changed.
The second child was still a deformed child, and was what the tribe residents called...the son of the devil.
So you have no choice but to put this second child here and let his elder brother take care of him. "
"Woooo..."
Asuka couldn't control her emotions anymore, she lay on the wall of the corridor, crying softly, "Why... why is it my child..."
Li Guanqi sighed silently.
Due to the sound insulation barrier, Li Guanqi's communication with the tribal leader did not disturb the deformed boy in the pavilion.
Asuka's emotions are a little out of control.
And Li Guanqi was not in a hurry to enter, just stood outside the light blue soundproof barrier, observing the pavilion and the deformed black-robed boy.
The pavilion is not big, it is only equivalent to a small narrow room, and the height is very low, if Li Guanqi walks in later, I am afraid that he will have to bend very low.
There is nothing else in this room.
