Chapter 542: The Survival of the Bloodline
Mt. Tenma is located in the northern part of Kurosawa, at the junction of the ลpan River and the Tenroku Grassland.
There is Langjun Mountain in the north, Meibi Mountain in the south, the Dapanjiang River in the west, and Yehe Mountain in the east.
For thousands of years, it has been inhabited by a confederation of tribes called Yelang.
On these four hills, there are four large tribes of Wumi, Luoju, Sashu and Jinzhu.
Thousands of years ago, they were an extremely powerful force on the mainland.
At that time, the Yelang Alliance did not reside in this black water, but was active in the land of Baipu in the present-day Dashu Dynasty and Cangwu County in the Southern Tang Dynasty.
At that time, the Great Shu and the Southern Tang Dynasty were still the Great Chu and the Great Han.
It's just that the leader of the tribal alliance at that time, the king of the Bamboo King's Mansion, said an arrogant word at the banquet, and the entire tribal alliance was wiped out.
The Great Chu and the Great Han jointly sent troops to attack from both sides, completely destroying the once-prosperous Yelang Alliance, and the territory under its jurisdiction was naturally divided between the two dynasties, and the current situation had long been over.
As for the sentence that has been laughed at for thousands of years, 'Who is the Han and I?' makes people sigh how arrogant the Golden Bamboo King was back then!
After the collapse of the alliance, the remnants of the Yelang tribe fled north along the Dapanjiang River under the pursuit of the Han Dynasty, and came to settle here.
From the beauty mountain to the north into the narrow crossing of Tianma Mountain, Chai Xingqian took out a diamond-shaped wooden order from his arms, and found the notch in the mountains and rocks covered by grass and trees.
After a few moments, the shadows healed, and the surroundings returned to peace.
The narrow crossing can indeed lead to the Tianma Mountain Bamboo Palace, but after entering the light gate, one step is there, and along the narrow road crossing, you need to walk a hundred miles away, during which there are many crises, all of which are specially arranged by the Bamboo Palace, even if the intruder is superb and can go all the way to the end, in this process, the people of the Bamboo King Mansion have already noticed his or her arrival, and they will have enough time to think about how to deal with it.
Feeling the next step of his feet, Chai Xingqian immediately opened his eyes, and at this moment, he was already standing under a tall city wall.
Here, it is the central domain of their Golden Bamboo Tribe and even the entire Yelang Alliance-Kolorum.
Unlike most of the cities on the mainland, Kolorum was built on a cliff, and even the wall in front of him was made of stone bricks that stitched together countless successive peaks and valleys.
After entering the city, there is no so-called central avenue, only a spider web-like sheep intestine path, between the mountains surrounded by deep water cliffs, bending and circling, like a small snake in the intricate maze of mountain roads.
Chai Xingqian walked all the way, passing through several water prisons on the way, some of which were empty, and the rest were more or less locked up.
Some of them are vocals
Desperate cursing, some people begging for mercy, more silence.
For those prisoners who have been here for a long time, how to save even a little bit of energy is the only thing they think about every day, and they don't even want to think about it other than this, because even just sitting still and thinking about things is also exhausting for the body.
After passing through several grottoes, there is a fence wall surrounded by cattle enclosures, and the people living in them are all the people of the Jinzhu tribe.
Walking all the way up the mountain road, I don't know how long I walked, while the dilapidated wall that had collapsed most of it due to disrepair came into view, and Chai Xingqi's eyes showed a hint of joy.
He involuntarily quickened his pace, and after crossing the stone wall, the elegant bamboo building made of green bamboo came into view.
Here, it is the embroidery building.
Xuanwu hangs his head, and osmanthus is fragrant.
On the bamboo floor, a small bell swayed in the wind, and the three-leaf colorful feathers were tied under the hammer, and the melodious bell struck the heartstrings of Chai Xingqi.
"Luyun!
Chai Xingqian shouted softly.
Luyun is the woman promised to him by the Bamboo King, and it is the result of the divination of the priest Lord using [witchcraft] after he completed the task in the clan last year.
Originally, after the ceremony, Luyun should have married him, but that year's sand protection task happened to be her turn.
Out of Tianma Mountain, along the east bank of the Dapan River all the way to the south, until the valley of the pole and back, in addition to the Qianjiang Gang, their people will also take a part of the dansha, along the land route to the south, until the valley of the pole.
If it is confirmed that the Dansha of the Qianjiang Gang has been received, they will go north along the way, and on the way back, they will sell the Dansha in their hands to the Tianfeng Dynasty and the major forces of Kurosawa.
But if there is a problem with the Dansha in the hands of Qianjiang's help, they will directly hand over this part of their hands to the people in Youji Valley, which can be regarded as completing the transaction of this year.
The Bamboo King's Mansion has been in decline for thousands of years, and now, it is their Golden Bamboo King, and it is just the cultivation of the peak of the legal domain, and the rest of the Wumi, the leaders of the Luoju and Luoju clans, are only in the early stage of the legal domain, as for the scolding, when they fled north, their clan was the most seriously damaged, and over the past few thousand years, the population in the clan has become smaller and weaker.
In this generation, there is only one seedling left, Luyun.
Luyun's mother died young, and her father, who was seriously injured while she was a young man, came to Kororum and entrusted her only daughter, who was also the last bit of blood of the Scolding clan, to the King of the Golden Bamboo.
Of course, Yellan was only a loose alliance, and apart from the tradition of unanimity with the outside world, the tribes rarely interfered with each other, although they were masters and subordinates.
Asking the Golden Bamboo King to take Lu Yun in also came at a price.
The holy relic, the bronze spoon, which was scolded by the Yelang tribe, was the price offered by the King of the Golden Bamboo.
Of course, everyone is dead, and it is naturally useless to keep this holy relic, although the bronze spoon is in the hands of Lu Yun's father, but the royal bloodline of the Scolding clan has long been cut off, and he doesn't know how to use this thing at all, so he keeps it in his hands
It's just an ornament, otherwise he wouldn't have been hit so hard when he went out to hunt a mid-level demon beast.
Since it is useless, it is not a loss-making transaction to give to King Jinzhu in exchange for his daughter to grow up safely.
King Jinzhu was true to his word, built a special embroidery building for Lu Yun, and invited a nurse to raise him, and the master taught him, and the treatment in the clan was enough to compare with the pearl in the palm of some high-ranking families, and before Xuan, her life could be described as carefree.
It's just that after the meeting, she completely got rid of the scolding and became a member of the Jinzhu tribe.
This is not only the rule of the Jinzhu tribe, but also in Wumi and Luoju.
At that time, the number of people among the four clans was scarce, and in the process of fleeing, a considerable part of the female dependents with low strength and weak physique died, and the adult men in the clan could not find a partner, so in order to solve personal affairs, they naturally thought of intermarriage with foreign clans.
Of course, when they settled here thousands of years ago, most of the foreign women who intermarried with the men of the clan were forcibly captured by them from outside.
Therefore, among the three surviving tribes, there are very few pure-blooded Yelang people.
Jinzhu is better, like the Wumi and Luoju clans, who have been maintaining their pure bloodlines for hundreds of years through intermarriage between close relatives and even in-laws.
It's not because they really think of the pure Yelang bloodline as noble, if they can, there are actually many people in the royal families of the three major tribes who would rather intermarry with foreigners, but it is different from the sacrificial witchcraft.
In the process of forging tens of thousands of years ago, the holy weapons in the clan were refined through the physical sacrifice of people with pure blood, and only those with pure blood can be triggered.
The three of Yelang were already in decline, and if they lost their powerful artifact, they would have been able to pin all their hopes on the protection of the Valley of the Extremes.
Although the Valley of the Hidden Pole needs their dansha to refine the pill, it has also fulfilled their promise to protect the Yelang clan in the past thousands of years.
However, the sky is unpredictable, and people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is undoubtedly an unwise and unreliable choice to completely pin hope on others.
But in fact, after leaving the Cangwu Ancestral Land, the population of the four clans with pure Yelang bloodline has been decreasing.
I don't know why, even if these people work hard day and night after getting married, it becomes extremely difficult to have a son and a half daughter, that is, they are successfully born, and they also need to be well taken care of when they are young, and if they are not careful, they will easily die.
The people of the three tribes were also confused about this, and they didn't know what was happening to them.
It's just that the sacrifices of all tribes have come to the same conclusion after jumping the, that is, their Yelang clan has been cursed.
But once they looked deeper, for example, when asked what kind of curse had led them to such a field, and what kind of people had bad intentions and put such a vicious curse on them, the priests could not say why.
But in recent years, Kim
The loss of blood of the bamboo tribe has gradually slowed down for some reason, and now, the dilemma of this pure-blood tribe having difficulty in giving birth has gradually been controlled, and even in the last six months, there is no need to intermarry with foreign tribes, and the population of the clan has rebounded somewhat.
This situation made the entire Jinzhu high-level a little overjoyed.
And the two major tribes of Wumi and Luoju, whose situation is still not optimistic, sent people to Tianma Mountain one after another to ask for help, but King Jinzhu only said that he didn't know.
This sentence of 'unclear' made some subtle gaps between the three tribes, which were originally in harmony.
