Chapter 212 The Three-Pole Family of the Nine Flames Continent
Seeing that these two people were silent, Yu Rou was afraid that they would misunderstand her, and then said: "My Yu family has always been a second-rate family in Jiuyan Continent. I once had an opportunity to improve the family's strength, but my father did not
We are willing to take advantage of others' danger and help another family. So even though my Yu family's strength is limited now, the family we help will help us. This is also because my father is so righteous that he gave the opportunity he got to his friend.
.”
"We are not your father's friends." Ma Tao said coldly.
"But you are my friends." Yu Rou retorted seriously.
Ma Tao wanted to say more, but Ming Zhiyuan answered: "Okay, if people from the Yan family search this medicinal forest, we will find a way to go to your main state."
"Yeah, yeah." Yu Rou didn't care that the two of them couldn't see her at all, and nodded hard in the darkness.
The three fell into silence again.
After another half an hour, the sky began to light up, and the three people in the small room slowly saw each other clearly. Yu Rou looked at Ming Zhiyuan, Ma Tao, and Feng Wu, and suddenly smiled, "Why?"
I feel like we just know each other now, just look around."
At this time, Ma Tao looked at Yu Rou's face where the traces from being slapped with the back of his knife had not completely dissipated, and her two arms were still bandaged with cloth strips. He felt a little guilty inexplicably, and rarely quarreled with her.
Ming Zhiyuan also smiled and said, "At this time, we haven't been searched yet, so we probably can't be found. The Yan clan's people will retreat on their own, right?"
"No, I have heard that the Yan clan's Martial Emperor has a sharp mind and will not retreat easily." Yu Rou answered affirmatively.
"What's the matter? He still depends on you, the Yu family? Do you still have any old grudges?" Ma Tao couldn't help but replied angrily.
Ming Zhiyuan glanced at Ma Tao and felt that the big black man had some strange feelings towards the little girl Rou.
Yu Rou explained with some embarrassment: "My Yu family and Yan family have never had any grudges, nor have we had much contact. We are on good terms with the Wushi family of the Sanji family."
"Wushi, is that the first-class family that your father gave away?" Ma Tao asked.
"That's right, but the Wushi's own strength is also very impressive. Even without our help, they can join the Three Extremes Family just by spending some time together."
Ming Zhiyuan looked at Yu Rou and asked, "What does the Sanji family mean?"
"This is the name given to the three top families in Jiuyan Continent. It is said that many years ago, there were the Siji Family and the Wuji Family. Later, the other two families gradually declined, and now there is only the Sanji Family."
"Oh." Ming Zhiyuan nodded slowly. This is a bit like the three sects of Tianyuan Continent. The current Wuji Mountain has been in decline after the leader failed to lead the disciples to defect to the devil.
In fact, the highest martial arts sects in Tianyuan Continent are only Wushen Mountain and Saintess Mountain.
Ma Tao was a little surprised and said to Ming Zhiyuan: "There is no empire in Jiuyan Continent. The people are managed by their respective families. What if there is a fight between families? There is still no trouble?"
Yu Rou knew that he was asking Ming Zhiyuan on purpose. In fact, she was waiting for her answer, so she answered: "If there are disputes within the family, the head of the family will decide them. If there are fights or disputes between families, they will be decided by the Sanji family.
The Sanji Family can be regarded as the empire management of Jiuyan Continent."
Ming Zhiyuan looked at Yu Rou in disbelief, "If family management is used to replace imperial management, how much control does this family have?"
Yu Rou nodded, "If you don't obey the family's management, you will have no choice but to become a wandering bandit. There are also many people in Jiuyan Continent who were expelled from the family due to their heinous crimes, and in the end they can only join the wandering bandits."
"Wandering bandit?" Ming Zhiyuan looked at her doubtfully as he walked.
"Every family will have some people who betray the race or commit serious crimes, people who have extenuating circumstances but whose crimes are unforgivable. If the family cannot make the decision to behead, they will expel such people from the family.
They have the mark of crime on their bodies, and no family will take them in, so some of them can only gather together to become wandering bandits, struggling to survive together on the Jiuyan Continent. Some will rob homes, rob passing caravans, or rob larger people.
Some people in small oases will go to hotter and more difficult places to survive by hunting and planting. There are all kinds of people."
"Let the people who deserve it go out to rob their homes? Don't you families care?" Ma Tao said with some dissatisfaction.
"Why don't you care? But wandering bandits generally don't stay in one place for a long time, especially after doing something big. They will immediately divide the loot and disband on the spot, or immediately escape far away. There are also some who are caught by the family guard army and are killed.
If you are caught, you can only hope for good luck. It is rare to hear that captured wandering bandits can survive."
Yu Rou continued to explain, "And wandering bandits are a minority after all. Most of them will find a place to live alone and peacefully. There are also oases that recruit people who have been expelled from their families to do coolies. Not all people who are expelled from their families will become wandering bandits."
of."
Ming Zhiyuan feels that the survival system of Jiuyan Continent is really weird, but under this survival law, families need elites, and even wandering bandits need to practice and improve themselves, otherwise they may be eliminated at any time. Maybe such Jiuyan Continent
This is the paradise of martial arts.
From personal competition to competition between families, to competition between wandering bandits, and competition between wandering bandits and families, this is a continent full of competition.
No wonder the martial arts in Jiuyan Continent can surpass Tianyuan Continent by so much. Although there is a reason why Feng Wang lost most of the high-quality Tianyuan Martial Arts in Jiuyan Continent when he became enlightened, it must be said that fierce competition is also a force for the prosperity of martial arts.
In this way, it is the struggle between people that stimulates the power of martial arts the most. Ming Zhiyuan thought about the situation in Jiuyan Continent and couldn't help but feel a little worried. There are few alchemists here. Even if he can escape the Yan family's pursuit, he can still escape
Is it coveted by the Tai family? Fortunately, they have Feng Wu.
You must take this little guy with you and never leave their sight for a moment. Returning to Tianyuan Continent depends on it.
By this time, the sky was already bright, and the chirping of birds in the medicinal forest continued to enter their short courtyard. Old Yutou never sent anyone to inform them of the situation in the village, and they did not dare to go out rashly.
Ma Tao used his body skills to look around the perimeter of the yard and came back, and said to Ming Zhiyuan: "It's strange, I can't hear the voices of people in the village. It's very quiet in the village. Have they been killed by Yan's people?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Rou's face turned pale for an instant, and then she returned to normal, "No, although the Yan family is the head of the Sanji family, they don't dare to kill people rashly. Although my Yu family is not as powerful as
Compared with the Yan family, they are not easily bullied."
