Cheers resounded in the small wilderness at the foot of the mountain. The Qianling tribe was happy that the enemy had withdrawn. Regardless of whether it was the enemy they defeated, as long as the enemy retreated in front of them, it was enough to make people happy.
The scale of this battle was not large, with only about a thousand people from both sides combined. There were still many injured people from the Qianling tribe, all of whom were women. It was obvious that this was a tribe dominated by women.
While cleaning up the wounded, a group of female soldiers surrounded Bing Zhixie. Bing Zhixie thought they would be kind to her, but unexpectedly, they still looked wary.
They circled around with weapons, looking at Bing Zhixie up and down, left and right, like a monster. At this time, the strong woman with short flat hair said a few words that he could not understand, and the women around them howled excitedly,
A swarm of swarms came up, pushing and pushing Bing Zhixie toward their tribe's stronghold.
"Hey, hey, that woman, don't any of you understand what I'm saying? Can you tell me what they are doing?"
The woman with short flat hair did not respond to his call and looked like she was ignoring him. Seeing that these female warriors didn't seem to have any ill intentions, Bing Zhixie flew out with a teleport, landed in front of them, and followed them into the village.
This village is not too big, but not too small. The village is protected by a wall surrounded by wooden pillars, and there are low buildings made of wood and thatch. There are some cows, sheep, and other animals in the village.
There were some free-range chickens and two burrowing beasts that were used as laborers and tied to a large stone plate in the open space in the corner of the village. He had discovered during the battle just now that no one from the Qianling tribe had summoned guards to join the battle.
He was fighting entirely on his own, and the victims were not protected from the collapsed life space after death.
Although guarding and making contracts is the most basic survival and life skill taught in the academy regardless of the country's big or small, regardless of the level of education, the people here are completely uncivilized and have not learned any magic education in modern society.
There were people in the village making simple metal utensils, digging holes in the ground, and using molten metal to cast the simplest molds for the utensils. Not far from these people, there was a pile of scattered ores, some were carrying the ores, and some were smelting metals.
.The people doing these jobs were all women. Bing Zhixie had not seen a man among these people for a while.
After just experiencing a battle, the situation in the village immediately returned to order, as if they had long been accustomed to such things. The injured people were being smeared with chewed grass leaves by tribesmen who looked like doctors. The victims
was placed aside.
Is this human civilization in modern society? Bing Zhixie has seen descriptions of barbaric tribes in this area in books, but seeing it with his own eyes is completely different. In fact, this place is not very far away from modern magical civilization, but
The inside and outside are like two worlds.
The sky was getting dark, and the bonfires in the village gradually became brighter. Rain fell from time to time in the sky, and the open-air village quickly became empty, leaving only some captive livestock and wild beasts and the two burrowing beasts suffering from the cold.
It turns out that the inner end of the village is next to the mountain wall, and there is a large cave under the mountain wall. There is a vast space inside, enough for many people to live here. According to geographical records, the Feiyun area is covered with water for nearly 11 months out of 12 months a year.
During the rainy season, it may be sunny for two or three days, and then it may rain again. With such bad weather, it is impossible to live without a suitable living environment. No wonder the Qianling tribe chose to build their village here.
Bing Zhixie was forced into the cave by these tribal women. He just wanted to come over and ask for directions, but no one could answer him. The only female warrior with short flat hair who could speak a few common languages never followed him again.
He talked. When he came to the cave in the mountain, he finally saw the men in the village. These men lived in the cave. They had delicate skin, were generally fat, and had loose muscles, like people who had not been engaged in productive labor for a long time.
The cave is very wide, and there are some self-illuminating crystals stuck on the walls. The light is not very bright, and it illuminates the cave dimly, much like the bright light reflected by the water surface.
"Young man at the entrance of the cave, come in, don't you have something to do?" Deep in the cave, a pale and elderly voice came faintly. Bing Zhixie finally heard the familiar common language, and his speech was relatively standard.
Bing Zhixie walked deeper into the cave. Several female warriors from the Qianling tribe were escorting him on both sides holding wooden guns and bone spears. The cave was more open, with some low wooden tables and beasts arranged on both sides.
The leather blankets were spread on the ground, and the low tables were simply and delicately painted with paint. The female tribal warriors with status sat behind these low tables, while those with insufficient status could only gather behind these people or sit further away.
Sitting on a rock collapse in the center of the cave is an elderly woman, with so many wrinkles on her face that she could kill bugs in the cave. She has gray eyebrows and narrowed eyes to examine the people who came here unexpectedly.
.
Bing Zhixie stood seven meters away from the stone couch and said politely: "My name is Celeste. I came here to ask you for directions."
Everyone looked at him. The previous hostility in their eyes was gone. However, the person sitting on the stone couch did not speak, and neither did anyone else.
The old woman's wrinkles were too deep to show her expression, but she seemed a little unhappy. She glanced at the short-haired female warrior not far away. The short-haired woman walked to the stone couch and whispered to the old woman.
They spoke a few words. Their voices were very low, but Bing Zhixie could still hear them, but he couldn't understand the content of their conversation.
The old woman nodded, turned around and said to Bing Zhixie: "No matter what your purpose is, I don't care what your identity is. When you arrive at the Qianling tribe today, you must abide by our laws."
Bing Zhixie didn't understand: "I don't understand what you mean by that."
The old woman smashed the cane stick in her hand and said, "I am the grandma of the Qianling tribe. When you see me, you should kneel on the ground and get my permission before you can speak."

The grandmother continued: "In the Qianling tribe, all male creatures, including men, are slaves raised by women as slaves. Slaves have no right to wear clothes."
After saying that, two female warriors beside Bing Zhixie came up, seemingly ready to take off his clothes.
Bing Zhixie swayed and stepped away from the eyes of the two girls. She was sweating secretly in her heart. Before she came, she hadn't heard the male owner of the wooden building talk about the strange customs of the Qianling tribe. It was probably because the man was worried about his wife and had forgotten about it.
Just say it.
The clan elder squinted her eyes coldly and continued: "In return, do you know what crime you have violated against my clan?"
Bing Zhixie showed doubts. Didn't he help them drive away the enemy? How could he still be guilty?
The clan grandmother said: "Tonight is the day when my tribe holds a pregnancy ban. On this day, all unclean men are not allowed to appear under the sun and moonlight, but you suddenly appeared. This has defiled the tribe's ceremony~!
"
Bing Zhixie thought, no wonder she didn't see half a man before, it turned out that all the men were locked up by them. Bing Zhixie said: "This is a misunderstanding, I am not an unclean man, I..."
"Did I let you speak?" The clan grandmother was very angry as she punched her wooden staff. The female warrior next to her immediately raised her bone spear and pointed it at Bing Zhixie.
Bing Zhixie shut up.
The grandmother coughed for a while, then calmed down her anger and said: "I mean all men are unclean, dirty, lazy creatures." She added: "I have been outside, when I was young. Outside.
This world horrifies me. The order is completely reversed and there are no rules. The leaders of those tribes are actually men. Letting men manage women is the greatest disrespect to the gods."
"..." Bing Zhixie was a little speechless. In order to find out the direction, he had to listen to her finish.
The clan elder said: "You are an outsider and do not understand the true laws. I have temporarily forgiven your guilt. This is also the reason why you can come in here and meet me. Now I allow you to speak and speak out your heart.
If so."
"Uh, I..."
"Wait a minute." After being reminded by the female warrior beside him, the clan elder interrupted him and said, "I forgot something. How did you come to the Qianling Tribe? Is there anyone guiding you?"
"Can you guide me?" Bing Zhixie looked unhappy at the clan elder and said, "I came here accidentally. I lost my way. I came here just to ask you..."
Here, he suddenly felt that these people might not know what the 'Realm of Confusion' was. This name was what people in the outside world called a place in the Feiyun area. But he still asked.
The result was exactly as he expected.
"I don't know where you are talking about. If this is what you want to say, I can't answer your question." said the clan grandmother.
Bing Zhixie did some research before entering the Feiyun area. In the past, it was recorded that there were not many people looking for the Blurred Realm, far less than those who went to explore the Forest of Warcraft. Most of these people failed, and some people
It was found through the help of the tribes here. It is said that these people confirmed through the records in ancient books that what they found was the realm of confusion. However, the successful people revealed very little information. Such precious information is usually regarded as a kind of private treasure.
Will not share it with others.
In recent years, the most well-known people who want to explore the Blurred Realm are the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group and the Mercenary Guild’s missions offering hundreds of millions of bounties. However, the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group was destroyed due to exploring the Blurred Realm, and those who survived
There are not many left. As for whether they have really been to the Blurred Realm, Bing Zhixie has no way of knowing, and the intelligence guilds cannot buy relevant information.
Since his last death, Bing Zhixie has tried to contact Linda many times. When they were in the royal capital of Sindmoor, they had discussed privately to contact Linda through the World Bank's postal system if necessary, and drew a letter to return the message.
A sketch of the memory array that has not yet been finalized. He has tried both methods many times, but has not received any reply from Linda for more than a year. He knows that Linda knows that he has come back to life through the moon in his hand.
Linda must have known about the existence of the Heavenly Fierce Tourmaline that Rail Ice Soul had printed on it. But why there was no response, he didn't understand. He had a very bad premonition. He didn't know whether this premonition came from intuition, but he
He knew that something must have happened if Linda didn't reply. That's why he didn't immediately go to Di Kui with Hilary to seek revenge after leaving the desert. What he cared about most was here, in this forest, deep in the forest.
The person in the realm of confusion.
Bing Zhixie suddenly thought that perhaps he should not ask the people of the Qianling tribe, but the Shandou orcs who attacked here. The people of the Qianling tribe were very knowledgeable about the outside world, and they seemed to be more satisfied with their own lives.
This place has nothing to contend with. And those mountain fighting orcs may know more than these ordinary humans.
Bing Zhixie immediately said: "In that case, I don't have any other questions. Goodbye." He thought that it wouldn't be long before those mountain fighting orcs evacuated, and they should still be able to find them if they chased them based on their location.
He wanted to leave, but the Qianling tribe refused to let him leave.
"Stop him!" The clan grandmother stood up from the stone couch with her wooden staff. She was short, only about 1.5 meters tall when she stood upright, and directed the female warriors in the cave to stop Bing Zhixie.
Of course, these people couldn't stop him. Bing Zhixie didn't want to tangle with these barbaric tribes anymore, so he teleported to the outside of the cave. It was pouring rain outside, and Bing Zhixie turned around and was about to fly away, when he suddenly saw from the hazy night.
There was a figure moving about ten meters away.
Such heavy rain, and it was at night, had already obscured the sight, but Bing Zhixie could still clearly see the person in the rain through the dragon's perception.
The person in the rain was a pregnant woman, staggering in the rain with a big belly. Bing Zhixie remembered that when the victims were laid out after the war, several pregnant women who had been killed were placed there. At that time, he only glanced at it, and
Without taking a closer look, he only saw the pregnant woman and several dead pregnant women placed together. At this time, he saw clearly that the pregnant woman who was still moving was parasitized by rhubarb.
When the female warriors of the Qianling tribe who chased out saw the situation in the rain, some of them were surprised and said something incomprehensible. They were probably surprised that someone was still alive.
Several women yelled a few words, and two young women ran out. The two women who ran into the rain shouted "Cha, Cha" and then shouted loudly in this direction.
Come over.
Bing Zhixie was held up by other female warriors with spears. He wanted to leave, but he was surprised to see the pregnant woman who was helped back with a punctured intestine and still alive, especially since half of the fetus in her belly was slipping.
It fell to the ground and looked really scary.
Pregnant women seem to be controlled by the parasitic raccoon bloodvine. Judging from the behavior of the women of the Qianling tribe, it seems that the raccoon bloodvine can only control living bodies, not dead bodies. However, the current situation is not optimistic. The pregnant woman is alive now, but her face is pale and her lips are
His hair turned black and he became extremely weak due to a large amount of blood loss.
The women carefully helped the pregnant woman to the entrance of the cave and laid her flat on the ground. They seemed to be calling the people in the cave to come out and prepare for rescue. Someone who looked like a tribal doctor brought some herbs and animal bone needles, preparing to use them.
They came to rescue people, but the tribal doctors didn’t know what to do when they saw the condition of the injured.
Bing Zhixie couldn't stand it anymore. With the medical condition of the Qianling tribe, it was impossible to save this woman. He used his magic power to push back the people around him, rushed out of the crowd and stepped forward: "Get out of the way, I'll do it."
