It's actually not complicated to say, this beautiful woman's father is the clan leader's nephew, and for the matter of logging and arson, she needed to find a confidant, so she found their family.
And when the guest arrived today, he didn't know the girl's father and brother, but he had a token from the clan leader, so his father and brother took it seriously. They personally escorted him back to the village, and said they would entertain distinguished guests there in the evening.
.
After listening to the beauty's story, Li Feng casually asked about the characteristics of the palace man and was basically sure that it was Miyamoto Senji.
However, he was not in a hurry, but jokingly said: "Your father and brother are so courageous. They leave such a beautiful woman like you here without fear of being snatched away."
The beautiful woman blushed even more when she was told: "No... no way, this is all part of our village, and there are no evil people if there are occasional tourists."
"Besides, I have Miao Li to protect me."
As she spoke, she pointed to the wall next to her.
Li Feng turned around to look, and sure enough he found an exquisite long knife.
But this also made him couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "Haha, your girl can still play with knives and guns?"
The beauty raised her head in dissatisfaction: "Why not? We live in the mountains, and women are no worse than men. When they encounter a beast or something, they have the skills to protect themselves..."
Then she poured wine for Li Feng while talking about what happened in the village.
Li Feng didn't listen well at first, but as the beauty talked more, Li Feng became more and more secretly frightened.
The beauty's name is Mengwen. In her words, their village has been passed down for thousands of years and they are descendants of the demon god Chi You.
Passed down from one generation to the next, the people here always listen to the patriarch's instructions when doing things. They don't have to go out to treat illnesses. Instead, they use some witchcraft and herbal medicine for treatment.
At the same time, there are some very powerful wizards in the village, as well as some experts who are good at voodoo.
Li Feng was confused when he heard this: "Why does your village sound like a myth? How many people are there in your village now? Are they intermarrying with outsiders?"
Mengwen explained: "There are also intermarriages, but the women who intermarry have withdrawn from the village. Especially in recent years, young people have gone to school and traded with outsiders. People's consciousness has become more and more open."
"In addition, Miao women are inherently enthusiastic, so when they find a partner outside, many get married."
"Similarly, young men who go out here can also find girls outside, and the constraints of marriage will naturally become weaker and weaker."
"But the girl who gets married will be an outsider when she returns to the Miao village. Although she no longer has to abide by the rules of the village, she will not be treated as a member of the village. The girl who marries here is a member of the village. She is a member of the village.
You must abide by the rules..."
The two continued to chat while eating, and Li Feng became more and more curious about the village.
There are more than 20,000 people in this village, but in Li Feng's opinion, intermarriage within the clan is not feasible. After all, there will be many close relatives in this village, and most of them should be related by blood.
Sometimes the relationship should even be quite close.
After Mengwen's introduction, this is indeed the case. Because of incest, the children in the village have a lot of intelligence and there is a problem.
It is also because of this that many young men and women think about intermarriage.
And in Li Feng's view, such rules are not really very good. To put it bluntly, they are no longer in line with the current era.
Times have changed, and if people want to live a better life, they must open up to the outside world.
Only in this way can the village be completely changed, instead of being like the current situation where the entire village looks like a primitive society.
After chatting like this for a long time, the two of them had eaten and drank enough, and Li Feng suggested that they go to the village to have a look.
Mengwen shook her head: "This is not possible. We cannot bring people into the village without the permission of the clan leader, especially at night."
"Let's do it this way. You can just...sleep on the boat tonight. If you want to enter the stockade, I'll have someone load up the wood tomorrow, okay?"
Li Feng was not in a hurry at first, so he thought about it and nodded: "Okay, it's just me...it will be inconvenient for me to be on this boat."
Mengwen blushed and said: "It's okay, no one will come over at night anyway. If you are tired, just sleep outside. I'll sleep in the back room."
Li Feng couldn't say anything more now, so he could only nod in agreement.
Then Mengmai also asked about things in the outside world.
She has been in this mountain since she was a child. Except for going to the city a few times with her father and brother, she has never been to the city at other times. Even studying was taught by people in the clan.
Li Feng looked puzzled when he heard this. Mengwen had said before that people in their clan could go out to school, so why did Mengwen study at home?
Mengwen blushed and told her story. It turned out that Mengwen was different from other women in the tribe. She was a goddess in the tribe and was born with the blood of the ancestral gods, so she could not marry outside the family, otherwise the plague would break out.
Li Feng was shocked when he heard this: "Isn't it possible? How could there be such a strange thing?"
Mengwen's face was slightly bitter: "Sir, you don't understand, we are the people inherited by the ancestor gods, and this blood inheritance is unmistakable."
"And this is not the first time something like this has happened in our village..."
Then Mengwen told the inheritance story again, and Li Feng finally understood that the ancestor of their village was Chi You. When the inheritance was passed on, in order to ensure the bloodline, Chi You had an ancestral poison that would be passed down to future generations.
Ancestral Gu bloodline.
But not everyone can pass it on. It’s just like random. This kind of inheritance will slowly be passed down. Later, as the years go by, this kind of inheritance becomes less and less. There are only one or two in each generation.
Individuals will have this kind of inheritance.
And people with this kind of inheritance, regardless of men or women, cannot get married at all, unless they encounter a real divine Gu body. However, the divine Gu body had an inheritance before, but it was broken later, so there is no solution.
Once a person with this kind of constitution gets married, a poisonous disease will break out in the future. When this poisonous disease occurs, the blood vessels will swell so much that eventually the meridians will be severed and die. Such an example has happened more than once before.
It is also because of this that people who have received this kind of inheritance have been raised by the clan since childhood and will not be allowed to go out, just for fear of being cheated outside and regretting something later.
After understanding the whole story, Li Feng couldn't help being secretly surprised: "Then... then why did you still give birth to the child when you know that he has this kind of inheritance?"
He really doesn't understand, because in his opinion, such a person will be miserable all his life. He can't have emotions and desires, can't go out, and will be watched all his life. What's the difference between that and a puppet?
Meng Wen's face darkened: "You...you don't understand. Although people with this kind of bloodline are not suitable for marriage, they have unparalleled talents in Gu arts. As long as they practice with peace of mind, their status in the clan will not be low."
"And people in the clan will have special respect for people with this kind of inheritance, so except that they can't get married, everything else is fine."
