On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Qingwen, who was holding the child, also came over. This girl was the most excited.

She jumped excitedly beside the pillars of the pavilion, her chirping voice clear and pleasant, breaking the heaviness of the courtyard: "Husband! Husband! Congratulations to husband on having another big fat boy! Sister Qingxia is blessed by heaven, and the young master is even more blessed by heaven! This... this is simply a fairy tale that can only be seen in storybooks!"

Lin Zhen took a slow, deep breath of cold air, trying to calm his heart.

Hearing Qingwen's happy voice, he seemed to have temporarily escaped from a huge whirlpool and looked up at her.

This girl also stood there for most of the day. After experiencing the shock and ecstasy just now, her little face was still covered with sweat and residual fear.

"Yeah," Lin Zhen forced an expression that was barely a smile, his voice hoarse from exhaustion.

"You've worked hard for half a day. Don't stand here. Go back to your room and rest." He even reached out his hand and pinched Qingwen's face, which was flushed with excitement, with a rare hint of tiredness and tenderness.

This simple action and words instantly made Qingwen's face bloom with smiles. She nodded vigorously: "Well, I'll take my leave and go rest for a while!"

After saying that, he jumped and ran away like a happy little deer.

In fact, she also wanted to give Lin Zhen some time to calm down.

Lin Zhen withdrew his gaze and did not immediately speak to Shangguan Wan'er beside him. Instead, he looked at the chess and card Buddha who was shrouded in shadows not far away. He seemed to be still trapped in some mysterious and shocked emotion, twisting the Buddhist beads but almost breaking them.

"Old monk," Lin Zhen's voice lowered, leaving no room for doubt, "Come here and talk."

The chess and card Buddha suddenly came back to his senses and saw Lin Zhen's gaze. The complicated emotions on his old face had not yet completely subsided, but he lifted his monk robe and walked into the pavilion in a very calm and even anxious manner, and sat down neatly opposite Lin Zhen.

The flickering light of the lanterns in the pavilion illuminated the shock that had yet to subside on his face.

Lin Zhen leaned forward slightly, his sharp gaze fixed on the Chess and Card Buddha's face like a substance. He went straight to the point, lowering his voice: "Tell me, what exactly is going on? You just mentioned something about the Star God, something about the Jade Emperor's decree... In broad daylight... No, in the dark of night."

He raised his head and glanced at the still dark sky. The solar eclipse seemed frozen at this moment. "Tell me, what on earth happened to my son?!"

The chess and card Buddha took a deep breath, and a gleam flashed in his turbid old eyes with a certainty that he had seen through the mystery. His voice also became low, and it seemed particularly mysterious in the dim light.

"Your Highness, please allow me to speak. I am not speaking nonsense. According to the eight characters of the child's horoscope revealed at the moment of his birth, he should not have been born into this world!"

"Hmm?" Lin Zhen frowned tightly, and his hands under the stone table unconsciously clenched into fists.

"His fate is extremely noble. He is the reincarnation of a star from the upper realm. He should have wielded human power and carried out earth-shattering deeds. However, the will of heaven is unpredictable. How can Ling Xiao's wrath be easily defied?" The voice of the Chess and Cards Buddha was filled with the heaviness of fate. "Thus, the supreme will has been cast down upon him, bound to end his life and abort him in the womb! This is the will of heaven, how can mortals defy it? That's why my wife suffered a hemorrhage just now, and the fetus died immediately after leaving the body. It was precisely because of this calamity!"

"Then what about the crying sound later?! He's alive again!" Lin Zhen's voice squeezed out from between his teeth, with suppressed surprise.

"That's why I said that God has eyes!" The chess and card Buddha suddenly became excited, his hands trembled, and several Buddhist beads were almost twisted out by him.

"Look at this celestial phenomenon! The darkest moment of the solar eclipse that obscured the sun, at that very moment, the celestial phenomenon changed drastically! The light that obscured the sun was actually a barrier that prevented Ling Xiao from bringing down his fatal decree! It allowed a slight... short, unrepeatable gap and flaw to appear in the destiny!" He stared at Lin Zhen with burning eyes.

"It was this momentary 'break' brought about by this miracle of heaven and earth that gave this child, destined not to be born, a glimmer of hope! In that moment when darkness and hope intertwined, he was able to recapture his own vital pulse!"

He grew increasingly excited as he spoke, his face flushed with the glow of a pilgrim. "Defying the will of heaven and changing your destiny is right before your eyes! Prince! This is a tremendous opportunity and destiny! It's beyond human control, hahahaha!"

He couldn't help but let out a few more laughs filled with emotion.

Lin Zhen couldn't help but twitch his eyes a few times when listening to this extremely absurd "God's will theory" that seemed to be able to forcibly explain the miracle before his eyes.

If it were in the past, he might have thought that this old guy was weird or simply thought that the other party was also a time traveler who was fooling people like him.

But now it seems... the other party's look of complete belief and excitement is definitely not fake.

If he was a time traveler, how could he come up with such a ridiculous "scientific explanation" as "the eclipse of the sun by the heavenly dog ​​violated the Jade Emperor's will"?

This is clearly pure ancient sorcerer logic.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhen secretly complained.

Bullshit God’s will!

Bullshit Jade Emperor’s order!

It must be that this silly boy moved for some reason in the womb at the last moment, choked on the amniotic fluid or something, and pretended to be dead!

And I just shook him hard a few times! It just happened to smooth out the amniotic fluid or something else in his throat! He coughed and breathed, and then he started crying!

What's with the idea of ​​the solar eclipse blocking the Jade Emperor's order? It's just fooling a fool!

This damn quack midwife didn't even know the common sense of fetal death due to suffocation, and almost caused me to go through this scare in vain.

Damn it, I'll tell her to pack up and leave right away!

Although he was cursing in his heart, Lin Zhen's expression was much calmer.

Regardless, the fact is that my son is alive.

Although the old monk in front of him was mysterious, he had shown concern and given reminders before.

Regardless, he brought (albeit misguided) comfort and psychological support.

Lin Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, his fatigue deepening as his tone became more sincere. "Old monk, no matter what, my son is alive, and I have to thank you. When you go to Zhang Li to collect the money, just say it was me who said it."

It was a way of making up for the shock he had just suffered when he was almost strangled to death by himself.

When the Chess Buddha heard there was money to be made, the compassion and excitement on his face instantly faded, revealing a mercenary and extremely genuine smile. He said repeatedly: "Hey! Hey! Thank you very much, Your Highness! Thank you very much for your grace! Hey, to be honest, I'm thinking about the new Western Hu girls who have arrived on the street. Their dancing... Hey, I have money for the wine! Thank you very much, Your Highness, for your generosity!"

Lin Zhen was left in a state of confusion by the speed at which the old monk changed his expression, and his suspicion of being a time traveler plummeted to its lowest point again.

Which time traveler pretended to be a great master in ancient times for half his life, only to have a drink of wine in the end?

Looking at the expectant face of the chess and card Buddha, Lin Zhen's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered something and asked, "Wait! Don't rush to drink and have fun. I want to ask you something."
