Chapter 869: Fighting Wits and Courage (3)
"The holy medicine is made from hundreds of cherished elixirs, and no matter who takes it, it will improve the physique and prolong life...... You have just taken the holy medicine, and most of the medicinal power is still in your body, I will dismember you now, and then throw your broken corpse into the pot to boil, get out all the medicinal power contained in your body, and then refine the holy medicine again...... Although the power of the holy medicine will be greatly reduced in the end, it will be able to save my life at a critical moment......" the middle-aged man said slowly.
Ma Xiaoyao was suddenly frightened, what are the gods? Dismember yourself? And then throw it into the pot and boil? Why is this middle-aged man in front of him who looks so vicious? Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched uncontrollably, and then twitched again: "Big brother...... You...... Don't kid me...... This kind of joke will scare people to death......"
"Humph!" The middle-aged man sneered: "Do you think I'll be in the mood to joke with you?" Well, without further ado, let's die quickly. Speaking of which, the middle-aged man walked towards Ma Xiaoyao with two daggers, and his body exuded a strong murderous aura.
"Big brother, don't get excited, we can discuss it well......" Seeing the middle-aged man move seriously, Ma Xiaoyao was frightened, and he finally survived, how could he die again? And still dismembered? Ma Xiaoyao is very weak at the moment, he doesn't have any ability to resist at all, he can only let the middle-aged man slaughter, at this moment Ma Xiaoyao doesn't have to regret it in his heart, if he panics just now, just say that the black gold dagger is an ancestral heirloom, wouldn't it be fine? blames yourself for being too sincere, sometimes being too honest is not a good thing, Ma Xiaoyao's face turned pale: "Big brother, as long as you don't kill me, I can give you any compensation, really, I can give you any compensation......"
The middle-aged man stopped, and glanced at Ma Xiaoyao with an indifferent expression: "Any compensation?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! As long as you don't kill me, I can give you any compensation! Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly said: "Don't hide it, I'm very capable outside, no matter what you ask, I will agree......"
The middle-aged man snorted lightly: "It seems that you are very afraid of death." ”
"As long as it is a human being, how can anyone not be afraid of death." Ma Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "Big brother, do you know how many people there are in the world?" There are more than 6 billion, and in the vast crowd, we can meet, what a great fate? The Buddha once said: 500 times in the past life will be exchanged for a chance encounter in this life! Big brother, if we can meet, it means that we have had five hundred experiences in our previous lives...... What an amazing experience this is, and we must cherish this hard-won encounter...... I will treat you as my best friend, no, the best relative! From now on, you will be my big brother! I'm your own brother! I can do it for you! ”
The middle-aged man twitched his cheek fiercely: "You can really talk nonsense, even the Buddha moved out." ”
"No, I'm not, I'm telling the truth!" Ma Xiaoyao said seriously: "Big brother, you can not believe the words of the Buddha, but you must believe in the will of heaven, it was God who let me get this black gold dagger, and then God sent me to you...... Why would God do this? Because God wants us to know each other, wants us to be friends, wants us to be relatives, you can't live up to God's hard work......"
"Damn!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but scold, stretched out his hand and nodded at Ma Xiaoyao: "You shut up for me!" If you talk any more nonsense, I'll kill you! ”
"I'm not talking nonsense, I ......" Ma Xiaoyao still wanted to continue to fool, but the middle-aged man didn't give him this chance.
"Alright, shut your mouth!" The middle-aged man glared at Ma Xiaoyao fiercely: "Do you think that if you say a few words, I will be able to let you go?" Don't be delusional! As he spoke, the middle-aged man threw the black gold dagger out with a shake of his hand.
"Whoosh!"
"Poof!"
The black gold dagger flew past the horse's forehead, cutting off a strand of hair, and then plunged into the wooden wall.
"Ah......h......h Brushing shoulders with death again, Ma Xiaoyao is really about to collapse...... Nima's, is there such a torturous thing?
After throwing out the black gold dagger, the middle-aged man's anger seemed to subside a little, he glanced at Ma Xiaoyao with a stiff expression, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "Promise me one condition, and I will spare you from death." ”
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, and then quickly came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Big brother, please speak!" No matter what the conditions, I promise you! ”
The middle-aged man walked over, took the black gold dagger back, and then put it into his arms along with the red cloud dagger: "Be my son-in-law." ”
"Huh?" Ma Yao was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened: "Big brother...... You...... What did you say? ”
"I said let you be my son-in-law, as long as you are willing to be my son-in-law, I will spare you from death." The middle-aged man repeated.
"This ...... This ...... "Ma Xiaoyao feels that his brain is a little insufficient, what does this middle-aged man mean?" Let yourself be his son-in-law? Ma Xiaoyao's cheek twitched fiercely: "Big brother, are you serious? ”
The middle-aged man nodded: "Of course it's true, how about it?" Do you say yes or not? If you agree, I will spare you from death, and I will take good care of you, otherwise, if you don't agree, hum...... Then you're ready to be dismembered. ”
"No, big brother, why do you have to ask me to be your son-in-law?" Ma Xiaoyao said depressedly: "First of all, you don't know me well, you don't know me at all, maybe I'm a bad person?" Secondly, I look average, right? And they're not young, they're all in their thirties......"
"I don't want to know you, I don't care about your appearance and age, what I care about is your ......identity" The middle-aged man waved his hand: "Forget it, let's explain it to you, otherwise you will definitely not feel at ease as my son-in-law, I will introduce myself first, my name is Dongfang Haoran, and I am currently the owner of Sanssouci Cottage, oh, your current location is Sanssouci Cottage, my ancestor was the late Ming Dynasty, and in order to escape the war, he led a large number of clansmen to the bottom of this mountain to live in seclusion, This is what my ancestors discovered by accident, and the location is remote and peaceful, making it perfect for seclusion...... At that time, there were thousands of people who came to live in seclusion, everyone lived together, loved each other, and lived a very comfortable life, and later my ancestors gave the cottage a name, called Sanssouci Cottage, which means that I hope everyone can live a carefree life. ”
Hearing this, Ma Xiaoyao's eyes showed a hint of surprise, he didn't expect that there really were ancient hermits in this world.
"At the beginning, the cottage was very prosperous, and the population was also increasing dramatically, at its peak, the population directly reached more than 10,000 people, but then it ......" Speaking of this, Dongfang Haoran's face showed a trace of heaviness: "After about a hundred years, the population began to shrink slowly, and women's ability to give birth to 'childbearing' is getting lower and lower, and the children born are also very weak, and even some children are born deformed and idiots...... You'll die within a few years......"
"How so?" Ma Xiaoyao's brows furrowed.
"Alas......" Dongfang Haoran sighed: "At first, the people in the cottage didn't know what was going on, but as there were more and more deformed children, some people woke up, and this qiē was caused by close 'parenting' and 'parenting'." ”
"Close 'relatives' and 'birth'?" Ma Yao was stunned for a moment.
"Everyone is originally a group, and there will be some blood relations to a greater or lesser extent, and with the passage of time, the blood relationship of the clan will get closer and closer, so the children born will become deformed." Dongfang Haoran smiled bitterly.
"How did you solve this problem?" Ma Xiaoyao asked, the concept of close relatives marriage in ancient times is indeed not very strong.
"It's not resolved." Dongfang Haoran shook his head.
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Didn't solve it?" What do you mean? ”
"I just can't solve this problem." Dongfang Haoran said: "The clan needs to reproduce, even if they know that it is not good to have a close 'parent', but they can only accept it, everyone is trying their luck, if they are lucky to give birth to a healthy child, they are all happy, if they are unlucky, they give birth to a deformed child with a weak physique, then they can only accept their fate." ”
"You guys are really ......" Ma Yao said with a smile: "Since you know that close 'parenting' and 'breeding' are not good for offspring, don't do this!" You also said just now, after more than 100 years, the matter of close 'relatives' giving birth to 'childbearing' slowly became strict, at that time the Ming Dynasty had already fallen, it was the Qing Dynasty that ruled China, and the society at that time was still very stable, you can leave here, go to live outside, and marry and have children with people outside? Wouldn't all the problems be solved? ”
"Has the Ming Dynasty fallen?" Dongfang Haoran was stunned, and then nodded: "Yes, the internal and external troubles of the Ming Dynasty at that time were indeed difficult to support, in fact, Emperor Chongzhen at that time was also a diligent and good emperor, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time...... You just said that the Qing Dynasty ruled China? Alas...... In the end, it was really captured by the Qing Dynasty...... So, now it's the world of the Qing Dynasty outside? ”
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "It's not been for a long time, many years ago, the Qing Dynasty collapsed, and now it's ...... How to say it, now there is a new world and a new society outside, there is no emperor anymore, and everyone is living happily. ”
"There is no emperor?" Dongfang Haoran's eyes widened: "How can there be no emperor in this world!" ”
"There is really no emperor anymore......" Ma Xiaoyao simply told the outside story - 8984 + d6su9h + 10092539 - >
