Chapter 415: Mountain Alliance
What Zhang Fan didn't expect was his passive behavior of looking for a way out, but overnight An'er fell into a coma that seemed to be on the verge of death, at this time Zhang Fan suddenly remembered why there are few martial artists with extremely high internal skills who have no skills at all, especially the situation that men are top masters and women are ordinary people who have no martial arts at all. Maybe it's because he didn't really integrate into a similar circle in Dongyuan Kyushu from the beginning, so he didn't understand that the consequence of doing so was to almost kill An'er.
Zhang Fan worked hard to adjust An'er's body with his own perception and unique spell ability, which seemed to be a little different from the normal state, especially in the Pingyang area, where Zhang Fan had some accumulation, but after all, he was not a famous doctor, and he didn't dare to act too easily in this situation. However, even a very conservative temptation finally allowed An'er to finally wake up from her coma two days later.
"I... I thought the Lord needed my life or my blood ... I don't know if there's something wrong now... β
Zhang Fan was a little silent when he heard this, and he didn't know if there would be other troubles in a few months that would cause accidents to happen to this woman who had nothing to do with him.
"No, you're at odds. It's because my own physique is different from ordinary people who don't have martial arts and spell skills, that's why that kind of accident happened. Don't worry, now I've figured it out. What if I am looking for a good partner, even if I can find someone who is superior in character, conduct, and even appearance, and has almost no shortcomings? I have seen a lot of ordinary couples in Dongyuan Kyushu, even if the woman was so respectful back then, but in the end, because of the gradual understanding and familiarity with all the shortcomings of her husband, she will become a utilitarian philistine, and the character of the past is actually no longer there. An ordinary woman like you, maybe she can have less delusional capital for a longer period of time, and more respect for a longer time... Alas, I am so vulgar and selfish... I don't know what the reason is, Zhang Fan would not have been so open to such an ordinary woman on such an occasion under normal circumstances, but at this moment, it is rare for a person with a disparate identity to talk about this.
"You guys here ... When Zhang Fan also wanted to ask about some marriage customs here, he suddenly realized that the Lost Soul Continent was essentially a land of women, and there was no such thing as transgender marriage, even in the ancient times, there was no small family in the sense of Dongyuan Kyushu.
After weighing it for a while, Zhang Fan, who was relatively honest in nature, did not intend to hide anything, and popularized: "In the land of Dongyuan Kyushu, the population of this continent is a hundred times that of this continent, the male population is similar to that of women, there is no strict organization of the order, and there are no dozens of people in the Lost Soul Continent hundreds of years ago, and some are often a group of two people to no more than ten people composed of a man and a woman or a man and several women as a model, which is called a family. Men and women are more or less the same as we have done before, in place of the spring water of the North Mountain, and the blood of the people in place of the offspring... β
Zhang Fan did not introduce too briefly, but told a lot, especially about the various bits and pieces of folk life that Dongyuan Kyushu himself knew. Although Zhang Fan has lived more often than ever since the Ming Dynasty, he has lived among the marginalized groups in Dongyuan Kyushu, but even so, what can be told can be regarded as very rich in An'er's opinion. Of course, this also includes some things related to marriage customs.
It's just that at this time, Zhang Fan recalled some of his experiences in the beggar club and added: "Of course, those are just ordinary families with relatives and friends." For example, those of us who are marginal orphans have no relatives, and many of us don't even have teachers or even sworn brothers and sisters, and we have left the world in the typical sense very early, so many times there is no red tape that only those ordinary people have. Of course, for the most basic certification and even binding effect, the marriage in the beggar community has the word "Mountain Heavenly Alliance", that is, to pray to God with the swear of the mountain platform to the sky as evidence. The oath is not as influential in the ordinary folk world of Dongyuan Kyushu as it was hundreds of years ago, but among those of us, except for a very few people with great courage, no matter what level, there is no oath that does not pay attention to such a meaning on such an occasion... β
"Does the oath have to be based on Dongyuan's words?" An'er asked after waking up with the courage to ask.
Hearing this, Zhang Fan also fell into thought, but it became clear in a moment: "Of course, it is not necessary to use Dongyuan dialect, other languages can also be used." The gods shouldn't just be in charge of a domain in the Eastern Plains Continent... β
In this way, according to the rules of the Dongyuan Kyushu Beggars, some of the more patriarchal practices, first of all, An'er's follower Zhang Fan came to a relatively high mountain and solemnly said in the direction of the sun according to some things that Zhang Fan knew back then: "Whether he is sick or poor, and whether I still have a good impression of my husband in my heart, I will be respectful in words and considerate in my behavior, and try to avoid making my husband unhappy." There is only one exception: if he often inflicts violence against me without cause or malice, the responsibility for the breach of such an oath is not mine. But even then, I had the right to flee instead of reciprocating with scolding, sarcasm or even indifference. β
Zhang Fan then swore to the sun: "I have no way to guarantee whether I will still love her in the future, but I can promise her children, regardless of gender or parenting, that they have the right to share the property of their offspring equally; There is only one exception: she has bad intentions towards me or at least three or more times she has spoken ill of me... β
"Don't you think it's not romantic at all, it's too realistic and utilitarian, as if there is no relationship between the two parties at all?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but smile afterwards.
Zhang Fan still overestimated the demands of an ordinary woman to a large extent, of course An'er didn't care much about this, and even praised it a little: "It is rumored that there is no trust between people in Dongyuan Kyushu, and they are deceitful, even within the family, and now it seems that it is too one-sided." At least from these rules and oaths, there must still be a culture of telling the truth and being honest with each other ... β
Zhang Fan couldn't help but shake his head a little: "Actually, this may just be the rules in the beggar club where I was back then, and I can't completely guarantee whether this is the case in other places... β
In this way, Zhang Fan did not seem to feel the pressure of loneliness in his heart for many years, and gradually released at this moment, and began to talk more about An'er, although Zhang Fan is not too old, his experience and experience can be said to be very rich, and it is not so easy to really pour clean in terms of talking about things, so Zhang Fan spent the next ten or so hours under this kind of confiding and even An'er's cooperation, not realizing that insisting on ten hours like this, or even a few days without eating, drinking, or resting would be no big deal for him, but for an ordinary woman, it would not be the case at allγ
seems to have inherited the tenacious character of women in this area, An'er also tried her best to pretend that nothing happened in front of Zhang Fan, but even so, in the end, she really couldn't pretend anymore, although she hadn't fallen into a coma again, her face had become completely unsightly. Zhang Fan originally had a good mental power and even perception, but it wasn't until this moment that he realized that something was wrong, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and apologized: "It's me who was too careless, forgetting that not everyone is like me, you wait, maybe it won't take half an hour for me to come back... β
The place Zhang Fan chose was not a good place for hunting, and unlike Dongyuan Kyushu, many animals and even plants on this Lost Soul Continent had such and such harms, and it was still difficult to find completely normal animals.
However, it is easy to say that Zhang Fan has also wandered in the wild in this area for many days before, and he has roughly seen some livestock that are completely harmless to him in his spiritual power perception, among which there is a strange bird that is very good at changing color and camouflage, and can almost be invisible, which is also the target he often chooses at those times. There is also a strange tortoise that looks like a stone. In these two animals, Zhang Fan doesn't feel too much abnormality even at a relatively close distance, and the others have a lot of weak toxicity to themselves, that is, their skills have dropped slightly in a short period of time, or they have a little heart palpitations, and there is no big problem, but Zhang Fan is not sure if the same is true for ordinary people who have no power at all.
For Zhang Fan, who was able to cover a large area of several miles at any time to search and attack, even if he didn't have anything in his hand, hunting was not too much of a problem at all. So, as I expected, these problems were solved in about half an hour. And throughout the process, Zhang Fan often paid attention to An'er's movements in order to avoid accidents.
Somehow, although his unique warning feeling was not unusual at this time, Zhang Fan still felt something strange. When I meditate, I still have the ability to understand my inner world more than ordinary people. With his current status and ability, how could he suddenly have some inexplicable strange feelings for a woman who was not very outstanding in appearance and had known her for a very short time? Could it be some tricks played by Yun'er at that time? Thinking of this, Zhang Fan was also a little vigilant: Is this An'er also a person who Yun'er had prepared in advance?
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan was still a little unwilling when he returned, hoping to test more, so it took about half an hour to find a strange snake that he had seen before.
"According to the rules of our beggar society, waste is a big taboo, so enough for the two of us is enough. I've done this with a unique approach, and I believe it's no big deal. β
At this time, An'er had been in a coma for two days and then accompanied Zhang Fan for nearly a day and night, and it had reached the point where she was exhausted and couldn't bear it anymore, so she couldn't care about being polite, and began to use what Zhang Fan had prepared a long time ago.
Zhang Fan carefully observed the strange snake he had seen at this time, and then began to replenish his physical strength.
After about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Fan felt a burst of numbness spread from his abdomen, his whole body seemed to be unable to move, and everything in front of him was also darkened, so he fell to the side in time. Of course, even at this moment, Zhang Fan is not really unconscious, there is still a way to perceive the living beings and even the scene outside, and even An'er's every move, even if there are ten Yun'er nearby, as long as it is not too close, it may not be able to pose any real danger to Zhang Fan at this time.
Seeing Zhang Fan unconscious and seemed to be convulsed, An'er also felt panicked after regaining some strength: "Lord. . . What's wrong with you, Lord?"
At this time, Zhang Fan pretended that his consciousness seemed to be gradually sobering up, and said with difficulty: "I... I seem to understand that all this should be your conspiracy. You and Yun'er have been ready for all of this for a long time, right? Now, it should be. It's time to test your decisiveness. If you can't make up your mind at this time, then you will regret it ... After that, Zhang Fan seemed to have exhausted all his strength and remained silent.
An'er felt an unprecedented panic, this panic and bewilderment lasted for at least a dozen breaths, but then An'er's mind gradually became clearer, and a voice seemed to say in her heart: The misunderstanding has been made, if you don't do it at this time, the consequences may be unimaginable. In particular, the Venerable Lord has not been here for too short, and he should have learned a lot about the rumored methods.
It's just that after hesitating for a moment, An'er finally felt that people couldn't break their promises and conscience, and didn't dare to make a move to kill them, but remembered that what she should do was to tell the other women. It's just that An Er hesitated again at this time, and came to Zhang Fan's side after thinking for a while and said, "Lord... Do you have concerns about other women in the area? or can you trust a lot of people?"
Zhang Fan didn't give any response, and in the end, An'er, who was somewhat overwhelmed, finally thought of a way to get the best of both worlds after being embarrassed, and couldn't help but decide.
