On the third day after the birth of the child, Xie Jingxi finally woke up.
These few days, Shen Huanzhi had been serving the soup in front of him, the older ones taking care of the younger ones.
"Huanzhi, it's been hard on you."
Xie Jingxi was truly weak and did not have any confidence in her words. It seemed that from this experience, she would be lucky to be able to live on.
These past few days, Shen Huanzhi was finally able to speak with her, "Xi, it's you who is suffering, I don't mind working hard, as long as you can recuperate your body, then it's my fault. Oh right, you haven't even looked at the child for a second, right?
Shen Huanzhi had gotten familiar with him these past two days, but when the little guy saw him, he was always smiling without crying. It had only been a few days, and Shen Huanzhi had already started to develop feelings for him.
didn't do it for anything else but for them to still be alive. This child had followed her to death, and going through tribulations with her was as difficult as living through one. She treasured him in her eyes, but she didn't have the strength to hug him and let Shen Huanzhi put him by her side.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered that Gu Yun had said that his son would give him a beating first when he was born. He was glad that he wasn't there, because a real beating would be heartbreaking.
"Huanzhi, have you contacted the outside world?"
He wasn't worried about anything else, he was just worried that she might look down on him. Shen Huanzhi picked things up from the ground and explained the entire matter to her, after which Xie Jingxi finished listening, he said, "This place feels really strange, and it's not safe to go missing for a long time. I have to contact the people outside as soon as possible."
Shen Huanzhi consoled her, "Xi doesn't need to worry, the Ye Dong Clan is willing to help out, the matter has been handled appropriately. I have already hired someone to send a letter, if everything goes well, it should be delivered in ten days or half a month. Also, I have made the decision, to claim that I am your husband in front of others, don't mind me."
Although she would still feel uncomfortable in front of her occasionally, but Xie Jingxi felt that from head to toe, he was no longer that gentle and refined person who knew even a single word. Listening to the information that he had revealed, it seemed that the network in his hands was not just Right Shore Merchant Union.
He had always thought that he had to rely on Song Yanchen's appreciation and support, but now it looks like it might not just be him alone. He did not belong to the Right Shore Merchant Union, or in other words, he was not completely.
"How could I blame you when things are urgent? If it wasn't for you, the child and I wouldn't have survived."
Shen Huanzhi smiled, "Don't be a stranger to me, you really want to thank me, and make this child recognize me as his godfather. This is also fate, I liked him the moment I saw him."
"You don't need to say it, you can't do it even if you don't want to, you can't run away, since you have acknowledged him as your godfather, then help him with the word. Before he was born, Gu Yun and I only thought of girls, so we probably won't use our names."
This was something that only his own people could call a child his or her name. Shen Huanzhi's heart suddenly felt a little hot, and saying that he was overwhelmed by this was not an exaggeration.
"Let's take the word 'Wei'. The so-called four directions is the word 'Wei'. The turmoil created by this child does not seek to maintain the four directions. Instead, let's hope that the four sides will be at peace."
Only taking things from the heart, Xie Jingxi felt that it was appropriate, but this word was ultimately used to make things big, and she hoped that it would be as Shen Huanzhi said, allowing this child's heart to be at ease. It would not be like how she and Gu Yun were, where he could not control himself, and could still live freely.
"Wei, Gu Wei, then I shall choose the word 'An' as the small word. Zhian, what do you think?"
Shen Huanzhi laughed, "Zhian is great, Zhian will not be in turmoil, and will be at peace with the world, good."
Zhao Zhang received instructions from Gu Yun and brought a lot of people to meet up with Manager Li. Manager Li had already led his people and wandered around for two to three days, but they were still unable to reach the water surface.
The Manager Li had brought quite a few people with him. Zhao Zhang looked at them silently for a while, and realized that they were all capable of diving, with wave after wave of people entering the water, and then with wave after wave of people coming up to replace them. With a certain pattern, he asked the Manager Li, "I wonder if you have discovered anything strange about the water?
Manager Li explained the situation in detail, "We discovered that this wasn't a coincidence, ever since the boss disappeared, I had been suspicious of the whirlpool, and sent people to scout everywhere, and we were almost dragged in here by our brothers. If we didn't prepare in advance, the people who were swept in would have definitely been swept away, and the boat wouldn't dare to rashly enter, Brother Zhao Zhang, you also noticed that we are at the limit of our distance, if we go any further we won't be able to go any further, you wouldn't be able to guess what is going on underwater."
With that said, Zhao Zhang became even more suspicious, "It can't be some kind of god or monster that's playing the role of a ghost, I think it should at most be a naturally formed whirlpool, don't tell me you have discovered something?"
Manager Li's tone of voice obviously could not be natural. There must be some unknown reason behind it, for Zhao Zhang to suddenly raise his guard, he had the nagging feeling that he would unexpectedly discover something.
"There's a body under the water."
These few words made Zhao Zhang's heart jump to his throat, "Corpse?"
"Brother Zhao Zhang, don't worry, we're not looking for him. There are a lot of corpses, but we don't know if they were sucked into the whirlpool, and we also discovered that the whirlpool is not formed naturally, it might very well have been man-made, because there are many traces of excavation under the water. I think that there's something underwater that's unknown, or it might be a mine or a treasure, the purpose of the whirlpool is probably to prevent other boats from entering."
If what Manager Li said was true, then there was something fishy going on underwater. Without even asking where the corpses came from, just some sort of treasure deposit, could ordinary people find out, and if they found out that they had the ability to excavate, who would be involved in this?
"Manager Li, do you mean that Shen Dong Clan and my wife will be dragged into this water?"
Did he want to know if there was any hope of survival, or if there was any chance of survival?
The Manager Li muttered to himself, "This is the most likely scenario. If we are not here, we would be searching aimlessly, or in other words, we would have to expand our scope. In my opinion, that is almost impossible."
The more he failed to find it, the slimmer the chance of survival became, as though the corpses at the bottom of the water were too hard to predict in the underwater world, and could not be found just because they were dead. In fact, Zhao Zhang did not hold any high hopes in his heart, hope was one thing, but reality did not allow for luck, and it was not easy for people to fight against the heavens for their lives.
"Manager Li! Our people have entered! " At this time, a person came up from underwater and excitedly said to Manager Li.
Manager Li personally went over and pulled him up, "Did you go in? What did you find? "
The man wiped his face and said, "Not yet. But after the whirlpool, it's unusually calm. There's nothing under the water."
"Nothing?" The Manager Li was weird, there was nothing, but there were no living beings, what kind of creatures would not be able to survive underwater?
"Look again!" "If possible, see if you can get ashore."
Zhao Zhang could not help but be amazed, he was also a person who spent all his time on the water travel. For such a whirlpool to be able to get past it, it could be said that Shen Dong's family or even Right Shore Merchant Union, there was actually such a capable person. But since he could get there, maybe he really could discover something.
Xie Jingxi had raised her up for two or three days, and then she finally had the strength to sit up, but at the same time, she had the spirit to feed the little fellow. Little An was very easy to support, and was very sensible to not cry at all, but of course, there were certain conditions, that would be watching people eat, and only then would she be at ease while facing Shen Huanzhi. On that day, Ye Ying graciously came over to take a look, but who knew that An wouldn't let her hug him, and cried the moment he touched him?
After feeding him some milk, it just so happened that Doctor Chang came over to give her another acupuncture point. A few days ago, when she woke up, Doctor Chang came over to take a look, and said that she had been soaking in cold water for a long time, and his legs were seriously cold. He was afraid of getting a rheumatism or something, and wanted to take advantage of Yue Zi to recuperate.
asked curiously. "I can see that Doctor Chang's acupuncture techniques are very special, I wonder who he's under?"
"Oh? But this woman knows acupuncture? " Doctor Chang was also surprised.
Xie Jingxi laughed, "I just saw a few before, I don't quite understand them."
"Then your eyesight can be considered quite good. I'm afraid that you have studied the way of medicine as well." "Since you understand, I'll chat with you for a bit. Actually, there's a reason for this, in a small place like ours, there's no such thing as a good master, it was just a coincidence that I met an expert who taught me some acupuncture techniques. Afterwards, I studied them carefully according to what he taught me, and could be considered to have created a unique set of acupuncture techniques."
"Oh? To think that there would be such a wondrous thing like encountering an expert. It sounds like it's in a book. "
It's not like that, I also feel that I was lucky, and that old mister has a weird personality. Telling me one move is enough for me to use for a lifetime, but the condition is that from now on, I have to use his surname.
Chang? Xie Jingxi pondered for a bit. If she wasn't mistaken, Old Man Ji's name seemed to have a word written in it.
