Chapter 152: Just one short of collecting all seven Calabash Brothers
Wenwen picked up Ruirui and ran out in a flash.
As the snow fell heavily, the prisoners around the Wen family could only see a figure dart past them in a flash.
As they strained to see ahead through the swirling snowflakes, they could only make out a tiny black dot. As they looked out, all they could see was a vast expanse of white, and the black dot gradually disappeared from the sight of those behind them.
Wenwen's skill in shedding her skin became more and more refined, and as her skill improved, her speed also increased.
The Wen family was happy for her; just as she had said, the newcomer surpassed the old!
The Wen family in the team watched Wenwen gradually improve from scratch, and the whole family was happy for her. While happy, they also kept in mind to work hard themselves.
Therefore, the Wen family members who followed them used all their skills and determination to catch up.
...
Now let's talk about the other side!
Wen Qilin and his brothers were resting on a sheltered hillside, waiting for the rest of the group. They were doing just fine when Wenwen came running over like a madwoman. They didn't know what she was doing, but after a short while, she ran off again like a madwoman, carrying her child on her back.
They didn't leave them a single word from beginning to end.
The group of them were now on tenterhooks, huddled together making wild guesses.
Wen Qikang was the first to ask a question, "Big brother, you're her father, tell me, what was Wen'er doing just now?"
Wen Qilin: ......
I am her father, that's true.
But he's just her father. He's not a mind reader. He doesn't know what his daughter is doing, and he doesn't tell her. How would he know?
However, he pondered that Wen'er had just told Qing'er to walk over by herself, so perhaps this matter was related to the little girl.
Wen Qilin glanced at Wen Qikang and said, "I don't know what Wen'er was doing just now, but I'm thinking it might be related to Qing'er?"
"Qing'er? It has something to do with my little girl? What could it be?"
After hearing this, Yao Changhao teased, "San'er, you're Qing'er's father, tell me, what was Qing'er doing just now?"
Wen Qilin agreed: "Brother-in-law, that's a good question, hahaha..."
Ye Jingchuan laughed mercilessly, "An eye for an eye, well done! Hahaha..."
The group burst into laughter.
Wen Qikang: ......
That's really like bringing up the very thing you shouldn't talk about; how could he possibly know anything about it?
The little girl is only a few years old, how could she possibly explain anything clearly?
It seems that Wenwen herself has to uncover the mystery.
As the group was chatting animatedly, they suddenly felt a gust of wind and snow drifting in from afar, followed by a strong gust of wind that swept towards them. Two people, caught in the wind and snow, stood in front of them.
When they saw the two people and two children in front of them clearly, they all looked surprised.
"What are you doing?"
Why did you come all this way in this freezing weather?
"problem occurs?"
Wen Chengbin answered first, "Third Uncle, it's nothing, it's nothing! Sister Wen told us to bring our little brother over to wait for her."
Wen Chengjian and Wen Qilin said, "Father, my second brother and I are going back to bring our seventh brother and Xiaomi. Fifth brother and sixth brother, you two stay here with your eldest uncle!"
Oh!
After hearing this, the group understood.
Just wait and see. Once these kids gather, Wenwen is about to unleash her ultimate move. They should just wait and see!
Soon, to everyone's eager anticipation, Wenwen appeared before them carrying a beautiful basket on her back.
Wenwen put down the basket and took Ruirui out of it.
I briefly explained the requirements to these people.
"Father, I'm going over there in a bit, so let's do this for now... and then... after my older brother and the others arrive, we'll do this...?"
Wen Qilin nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Father understands, don't worry!"
Wenwen looked around, found a spot a little further away, judged the distance, sat down cross-legged, and activated her magic.
A moment later, she waved to Wen Qilin.
Wen Qilin led Rui Rui over, and halfway there, he squatted down and said to the little girl, "Rui Rui, walk to your sister by yourself, watch your step, don't fall."
The little girl walked step by step through the snowflakes.
Wenwen was concentrating on using her detection technique, but after a while, there was no fluctuation within the range. The more she hoped, the less feedback she received.
As she lost patience, she couldn't help but open her eyes and look around!
Good heavens, the scene before her eyes left her both amused and exasperated.
Rui Rui was sitting in the snow playing with snowflakes and building a snowman, which was just outside her detection range.
She was truly at her wit's end and could only resort to her trump card, tempting the little girl, "Rui Rui, come here to your sister, there's something delicious to eat, come quickly!"
The seductive tone made her feel like she had the potential to become the Big Bad Wolf.
Fortunately, when Rui Rui heard that there was something delicious to eat, she jumped up and stumbled towards Wen Wen.
Oh dear, after stepping into the area, a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy was detected.
This is really good news; it seems to be another lucky baby.
Following the same method, it was the other children's turn next.
In the middle, Wen Chengjian and his brother arrived with two other children.
After a thorough investigation, Wenwen had clearly become immune to this good news.
Well, the accidental discovery did indeed feel like she'd been hit with a huge surprise.
After a while, you get used to it.
Her family's six children, aged three to eight, explored this icy world.
The result was that everyone could attract spiritual energy, more or less. Moreover, according to her observation, the spiritual energy particles flying around the children were all different colors and each had its own attraction.
The Bright Spirit Fruit played a significant role, that's undeniable. However, the reason they had this reaction is probably also due to their own inherent factors.
In short, all of their children are lucky charms; they're just one short of completing the seven Calabash Brothers.
Thinking of this, Wenwen couldn't help but hum a song softly.
"Huluwa, Huluwa, seven gourds on one vine, unafraid of wind and rain, la la la la..."
"La la la la... Hehehe..."
The laughter was too abrupt in the snow, especially for the few people who were still waiting for her to reveal the answer.
The group was completely baffled.
Oh dear, everyone's been waiting anxiously, but you're in the mood to sing.
Wen Qikang pretended to be angry and said sullenly, "Wen'er, what's making you happy? Tell your third uncle so he can have a laugh. It's quite cold here."
"Yes, yes, it's terribly cold."
These words drew nods of agreement from the people around him.
Wenwen suppressed her grin, racked her brains, and was about to organize her thoughts to explain to the others in detail.
Unexpectedly, the sound of many footsteps came from afar, and the group behind them had already come into view.
She could only speak concisely, finishing her sentence in a few words.
"Ah, such a good thing has happened?"
"Well, now is not the time to go into details. Let's wait until the next leg of the journey!"
