In the end, only Zhou Fei and the sword idiot Ling Zhaoyan stepped into the grassland.

The two of them left the camp quietly in the middle of the night, under the cover of Tu Wanyue and Yue Chen.

The remaining disciples of the Ding Sword Pavilion also set off to return to the Ding Sword Pavilion at dawn, but no one noticed that the sword idiot was not in the team.

As for Zhou Fei, his sense of existence is not strong, most people's attention is focused on Yue Chen, as the genius of Zhao State, the son of the Lord of Zhiyue Guanguan, his existence is like a firefly in the night, so dazzling.

After galloping all night in the grassland and making sure that no one would follow, Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan found a shady place and closed their eyes to rest.

An hour later, they continued their journey.

In the vast grassland, it was not easy to find a book, Zhou Fei didn't even know where to go, he and Ling Zhaoyan were running around like two headless flies, aimless.

After doing this for about three days, they finally saw the living man.

A small tent, two little lambs, a free-range baby, and a woman sitting at the door of the tent mending clothes.

Her hands and feet are thick, her skin is rough, and her facial features are also very tough, but she is very tall, and she is a head shorter than Zhou Fei, estimated to be about 1.75 meters.

Ling Zhaoyan's height of 1.65 meters is no longer short, but in front of this woman, he looks so short.

When the woman saw Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan, she immediately showed a vigilant look, she let her child return to the tent, and picked up a woodcutter at her feet.

Ling Zhaoyan hurriedly said: "This eldest sister, we are not bad people, we are just passing by, there is no need to be nervous." ”

The woman spoke, but the tone of her speech was very strange, which reminded Zhou Fei of those foreigners who were just learning Chinese.

"You ...... What is it...... People?" the woman asked.

Ling Zhaoyan said: "I am from Yan Kingdom, this son is from the Tang Dynasty, we went to the grassland to find a utensil." ”

"Tang people?" The woman looked at Zhou Fei, but slowly put down the woodcutter: "I know Tang people, very powerful." ”

Zhou Fei smiled: "You are also very powerful." ”

The woman shook her head: "No, we are not powerful, otherwise we will not be driven away by you." ”

Hearing this, Ling Zhaoyan immediately understood who this person was in front of him.

Barbarians!

She subconsciously held the hilt of the sword, Zhou Fei hurriedly grabbed her wrist, shook her head slowly, and whispered, "Don't be impulsive." ”

Ling Zhaoyan also reacted subconsciously, and after coming back to his senses, he knew that his behavior was a little abrupt, and he hurriedly took a step back to show that he did not have any murderous intent.

Zhou Fei continued to ask, "Why do you live here?"

The woman looked at him, "Why can't I live here?"

This asked Zhou Fei.

He didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Ling Zhaoyan stepped forward silently and said, "The grassland is not a place where you can live, the place where you should live is the bitter cold land of the extreme north......"

The woman said lightly: "It's too bitter there, there is nothing to eat, we have to live." ”

Ling Zhaoyan was also silent.

The woman continued: "The grassland is our home, why can't we live there? Although we have been expelled for thousands of years, we have not stopped thinking about our hometown for a day. We're just going home, and you're going to kill them all. ”

Zhou Fei let out a long breath.

He agreed with the woman's words.

Just go home, why not?

Ling Zhaoyan faintly felt that the woman's words were inappropriate, but for a while, she couldn't think of words to refute her.

"If you two have nothing else to do, let's go quickly, my man doesn't like you people in the wilderness, he went out to hunt, and he should come back in a while." The woman took up the coat again and sewed it up, and looked at them no more.

Zhou Fei was not ready to leave like this.

He was intrigued by the barbarians.

An expelled race, a notorious race, there is simply not much gossip in this.

And now it seems that the barbarians are not all fierce and evil, they also have seven emotions and six desires, as well as joys and sorrows, and everything they do is to live, no matter how they look at it, it is not as terrible as the temple advertises every day.

Moreover, this grassland was originally the homeland of the barbarians, and maybe they would know about the secret scroll.

Don't underestimate the power of gossip like "rumors in the clan".

What's more, Zhou Fei's body is a soul from the afterlife, he has no prejudice against barbarians, and he has never seen how "fierce" barbarians are, so his position is neutral.

However, Ling Zhaoyan was a little uncomfortable, she was taught that barbarians were vicious and would kill when she saw them.

After being brainwashed for a long time, Ling Zhaoyan also developed a subconscious habit of wanting to do something when he saw a barbarian.

It's pretty impressive to be able to endure it for so long without having a seizure.

"Let's go. Ling Zhaoyan said.

Zhou Fei shook his head: "I finally met a barbarian who can speak the Central Plains, so I have to talk a few more words." Don't be afraid, they're not as scary as you think. ”

Ling Zhaoyan said word by word: "I'm not afraid of her, but I'm afraid that I can't help but draw my sword." ”

Zhou Fei smiled: "Then I'll teach you a way to divert your attention." You think of this brute as a little lamb or a calf, and you keep giving yourself psychological hints, and then you will find that she is actually quite cute. ”

Ling Zhaoyan had an expression on his face that you were teasing me.

Zhou Fei didn't pay attention to her, but began to search for words to pick up stubble with the barbarian woman.

As an otaku who has been on the Internet for many years, talking to netizens from all walks of life, it is not difficult for Zhou Fei to talk to this kind of thing, and he communicated with the barbarian woman very happily in less than half a cup of tea, and the other party also let down most of his vigilance.

However, for Ling Zhaoyan, the woman has always maintained a high degree of vigilance.

She could sense Ling Zhaoyan's hostility towards her.

This kind of hostility will slowly seep out even if it is desperately restrained.

"Although the water and grass here are abundant and close to the water source, there is only one of you within a radius of dozens of zhang around, and if the enemy comes to attack again, you can't even call for help? Why do you want to camp like this?" Zhou Fei grabbed the firewood and threw it into the bonfire, and asked casually.

"We don't want to kill. The woman said lightly: "I just want to live." The extreme north is too bitter, with only endless glaciers, only cold fish can be eaten, and it is very difficult to catch. The number of the tribe was slowly decreasing, and the priest of the tribe said that if they did not move south, in another hundred years, the barbarians would be completely extinct. ”

"So we came out from the far north and went all the way south, hoping to get back the grassland, even a little bit, so that the people could continue. However, the thousand-year-old prisoners made the clansmen lose their minds in the face of the Great Wilderness people, and they would kill when they saw them, and they would kill them better than slaughter. ”

"My man was severely punished by the clan because he couldn't bear to kill a child, and even grabbed a child and forced my man to kill him on the spot. My man couldn't do it, so he wounded the caretaker and escaped with us. We ran for a long time to get here. ”

Ling Zhaoyan snorted softly, not knowing what mood he was in.

At this moment the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a male barbarian more than two meters tall walked in, carrying a sheep on his shoulder.

"Stinky bitch, what do you see I hit...... A sheep, haha, we don't have to go hungry. The man let out a hearty laugh, but after seeing Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan, he immediately restrained his laughter and became extremely vicious.

"Tang people?" The man recognized the style of Zhou Fei's shirt and held the handle of the knife tightly: "Fight with me and let go of my aunt and child." ”

Ling Zhaoyan also subconsciously held the hilt of the sword.

Zhou Fei pressed her wrist again, gently pushed back the sword that had been pulled out a little, stood up and said, "Big brother, don't get me wrong, we are just passing by to ask for saliva to drink, and there is no malice." ”

"It's true that the Tang people don't lie, but I don't want to see you either. Please leave quickly. The man said, and then said to his mother-in-law: "You melon girl, why don't you run away with the child when you see the Tang people?"

The woman stiffened her neck and said, "What should you do if I run away?"

Their children trembled and hid behind their mothers, grabbed their sleeves and said, "Mother, I'm hungry." ”

Zhou Fei knew that if he stayed any longer, he would be disgusted, so he took Ling Zhaoyan and left.

They came to a point where the barbarian tent was completely out of sight, and they stopped.

Zhou Fei stared at Ling Zhaoyan's eyes and asked, "Say it, I think you must have held back all the way." ”

Ling Zhaoyan said, "I just want to remind you that they are barbarians. ”

"So what?" Zhou Fei said.

"Don't forget who you are. Ling Zhaoyan said.

Zhou Fei said: "I have several identities, which one do you mean?"

Ling Zhaoyan said seriously: "No matter what identity you are, you can't be friendly with barbarians, this is the bottom line." ”

"Why?" Zhou Fei asked again.

"The remnants of the Demon Sect do not deserve sympathy. Ling Zhaoyan said.

Zhou Fei said: "I've always heard you talk about the Demon Sect and the Demon Sect, but sometimes the behavior of the Divine Temple is more terrifying than the Demon Sect? ”

Ling Zhaoyan's expression was solemn, and his eyes were clear: "Zhou Fei, don't say these words in the future, I can pretend not to hear it this time." If you continue to hold this view, we ...... You can't be a friend. ”

Zhou Fei raised his eyebrows: "Okay, let's seek common ground while reserving differences." ”

"What do you mean?" Ling Zhaoyan was bewildered by the strange syllables that Zhou Fei uttered.

Zhou Fei said: "It's good, hometown dialect." ”

"Although I haven't been to Chang'an, Chang'an people shouldn't speak in this tone. Ling Zhaoyan said.

Zhou Fei felt a little sweaty, how could this Nizi admit death a little?

It's still Yue Chen, and he skipped the words he didn't understand.

"Don't discuss this. Zhou Fei chose to skip this topic and asked, "I'm a little curious, the barbarians have all retreated to the bitter cold land in the extreme north for thousands of years, why are the Seven Kingdoms of the Great Wilderness, including the Divine Temple, still extremely jealous of them." As you saw just now, the barbarians are no different from us, they are just a group of people who want to live. As for the Demon Cult...... I didn't see anything demonic in them at all. ”

Ling Zhaoyan said, "It seems that you don't know much about barbarians and demon sects, haven't you taught these things in the academy?"

Zhou Fei shook his head.

Ling Zhaoyan pulled Zhou Fei to sit down, and began to slowly talk about the barbarians, the Demon Sect, and the great war thousands of years ago. I want to talk about "The Strongest Waste Material System" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
