Dongfang Lie led people to pounce, blowing his beard and glaring angrily, and immediately issued a wanted warrant and offered a reward for the arrest of Yan Eighteen. However, Yan Eighteen had already run away and hid, how could he go back to the Eastern Holy City to throw himself into the net. There is nothing to be done about Qianyunyue Dongfang Lie, he has no right to want an adventurer, so he can only send someone to guard Qianyunyue's home and wait for him to return.

And Qian Yunyue was already thousands of miles south of the Eastern Holy City at this time, and he really had a feeling of wandering the rivers and lakes in the past few days, walking during the day, and finding a safe area to rest at night, while fighting some wild monsters to earn some experience points along the way, while flipping through the ancient book, he finally found some clues.

According to the situation recorded in the ancient books, he estimated that Xuanyuan City should have been at the junction of the current Dongsheng Kingdom and Nanpu Kingdom, and went all the way down the south, and finally on the seventh day, he saw the sea.

"Dingdong, warning, you have entered the Nanpu region, you cannot enter the city without customs clearance documents, please do not break in illegally."

It turns out that although there is no communication between the main cities, it can be reached by walking, but the distance is a little far, and it is not possible to enter the city. He estimated that he must have walked nearly 4,000 miles, it was still on the border of Nanpu, and the nearest town was also a hundred miles away, and there was only a small fishing village called Muxi, where more than a dozen families lived and made a living from fishing.

Qian Yunyue decided to stay here first, if his judgment was correct, the ruins of Xuanyuan City should be near here, and he needed to gather information.

He found a family and identified himself, and the fishermen heard that they were guests from afar, and they were hospitable, because the terrain was remote, few people came, and there were no wild animals nearby, and the fishermen lived and worked in peace and contentment, and lived freely.

Later, with the help of the villagers, Qian Yunyue spent a day building a small wooden house and settled in Muxi Village, continuing to study ancient books while looking for the whereabouts of the ruins.

What surprised him the most was that most of the residents of this fishing village were surnamed Yao, and the rest were either surnamed Jiang or Ji. According to the records in the book, these surnames are all after Xuanyuan. In other words, he has found the right place. So he asked the villagers around and finally got some useful information.

According to an elderly villager, the ancestors came back here to find their former home, but the huge Xuanyuan City disappeared without a trace, and some people returned to Qingyang, while the rest stayed here to live. Gradually, later generations forgot to look for the ancestral city, and in this way they have been thriving as fishermen.

The villagers heard that Qian Yunyue was coming to Xuanyuan City, and there was no special reaction, but there was one thing that made Qian Yunyue feel very strange, there were no young men in this village, middle-aged men were very rare, most of the families were one mother and one son, or there were old people, and the children were all with their mother's surname, could this be a matrilineal clan society? However, Qianyun Yue didn't care much about it, he was just a passerby, and he would leave when he found Xuanyuan Sword. It wasn't until the evening of the fourth day that a little girl found him.

This little girl is the child of the family he went to on the first day of coming here, named Jiang Xiaoyu, and she will be fifteen years old in a few days. She helps the family do some work of drying nets and pickling fish on weekdays, and today she secretly came to find Qianyunyue when the adults were out to sea.

Jiang Xiaoyu gently pushed the door open, then looked out with a probe in his head, and then quickly entered the house, closed the door, and saw that Qian Yunyue was inexplicable, what was going on like being a thief.

"Big brother, you better hurry up, this is not the place for you to come." Jiang Xiaoyu looked a little anxious.

"What's wrong with Xiaoyu? What happened? Why do you want me to leave quickly? Qian Yunyue put down the ancient book in her hand and looked at Jiang Xiaoyu puzzled.

"Big brother, you're a good person, don't ask so much, hurry up, it's too late. You ......" Jiang Xiaoyu's face suddenly changed, "Big brother...... Where did you get this book? ”

"You mean that?" Qian Yunyue raised the ancient book in her hand, "A friend gave it to me, what's wrong?" ”

"Does the village know you have this book?" Jiang Xiaoyu had already begun to panic, and his expression was extremely unnatural.

"Yes, I took it to them and consulted them." Qian Yunyue encountered some incomprehensible places before, and she also took them to consult a few elders.

"It's over, it's over, it's really over this time." Jiang Xiaoyu said with a sad face and shaking his head.

"What the hell is going on?" Qian Yunyue looked confused, and didn't understand what Jiang Xiaoyu meant at all.

"It's too late to elaborate, you can come with me now." Jiang Xiaoyu pondered for a moment, as if she had made a decision, she turned around and opened the door of the wooden house, but she was stunned in place, motionless.

Qian Yunyue walked over and saw that the outside of the house was already full of villagers at some point, just looking at him and Jiang Xiaoyu.

"Xiaoyu, I didn't expect you to betray the village for an outsider." An old woman with white hair on crutches walked out of the crowd, looked at the panicked Jiang Xiaoyu, and said earnestly. She is the village chief of Muxi Village, and everyone calls her Mrs. Yao on weekdays.

As soon as Jiang Xiaoyu saw Mrs. Yao, she was even more frightened and trembled all over, and sat directly on the ground with weak legs.

"Young man, since the matter has come to this, the old body will also make it clear." Old Taijun looked at Qianyunyue and said in a deep voice, "Now I give you two choices, one is to take the initiative to stay in the village, wait for Xiaoyu and Lu in a few days, and the old body will let the two of you get married, and wait for Xiaoyu to give birth to Lin'er a year later, and the old body will let you go, of course, you can also choose to continue to stay." The second way, if you are unwilling, then we can only forcibly leave you behind. Although you seem to know some martial arts, the old body also has a way to trap you. What do you think? Young man, I'll give you an hour to think about it. ”

Qian Yunyue was at a loss when she heard this, but she probably understood that he wanted him to stay and reproduce for the village, which didn't sound like a loss at all, and she took advantage of it and earned a yellow flower girl who had just become an adult, but this doesn't explain Jiang Xiaoyu's panic, it's just that he has become a biological child, can he be so afraid? It seems that the village is very problematic.

He glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu who was sitting on the ground, smiled slightly, and said to Mrs. Yao: "I don't choose either way, it's up to me to decide what I want to do." With that, he bent down and picked up Jiang Xiaoyu directly, jumped onto the roof, and then turned around and galloped away into the woods outside the fishing village.

Old Taijun was shocked, but she didn't expect Qianyunyue to slip away directly, and hurriedly organized people to chase after her. But now it's night, Qianyunyue's light skills have been perfected, a few ups and downs have disappeared, a group of villagers are searching around with torches, where can you still see Qianyunyue's figure.

Jiang Xiaoyu was held in a man's arms for the first time, and her little face was red with shame, but she didn't struggle, so she let Qian Yunyue carry her all the way.

Qian Yunyue rushed out of the road for nearly 100 miles in one go, estimating that the villagers should not be able to catch up for a while, and a few ups and downs came to a small hill, and then put Jiang Xiaoyu down.

"Xiaoyu, now you can tell me what's going on, right?" Qian Yunyue stood on the top of the mountain and looked around, if someone chased him, he would be able to spot it immediately.

Jiang Xiaoyu settled down, and then spoke.

It turned out to be a feminist village, that is, a matrilineal clan society. But as Qianyunyue saw, there are almost no men in the village now, and generally speaking, even if it is a matrilineal clan, it is only said that women are dominant, not only women, but it is still necessary to have a certain number of men for daily life and reproduction.

Since ancient times, it has been advocated that the same surname does not intermarry, only group marriage outside the clan, but this village is originally the descendants of the Xuanyuan clan, so the foreign population is particularly valued, although the terrain here is remote, but in the early days there were also many travelers and merchants passing through, the people in the village usually try their best to leave it, even if it is just to leave incense for the village, the matrilineal clan has no father and no husband, this way is like "walking marriage", the first few thousand years have been like this continuation. At that time, in fact, the village was quite prosperous, with hundreds of families, although many foreign men could not accept this system of female superiority and inferiority to men, but there were also many men who were willing to stay here, because the girls of this ethnic group were all natural, all kind-hearted, beautiful as flowers, although the status of women was noble, but they had never been sorry for these men, everyone was happy, and their lives were happy.

It wasn't until twenty years ago that a woman who called herself the god of the moon suddenly appeared, and she had powerful mana and conquered the village in an instant, and since then, everything has changed.

Once a year, the moon god would come and inspect each time, taking a young man with him, and no one had ever seen him taken again. Various rumors spread throughout the village that the moon god was a youkai that specialized in sucking men's energy. The men were scared, and many of them secretly left the village, and the rest tried to unite against the luna, but the two sides were so different in strength that the men failed and were captured, and all of them were captured by the luna. Later, it was said that in order to ensure the labor force of the village, a few middle-aged men would be sent back every few years, and strangely, these middle-aged men had become like the walking dead, and had no other thoughts except to eat, work, and sleep.

In this way, there were no more young men in the village, and the moon god still demanded that a young man be offered to her every year on the night of the full moon, otherwise she would bring disaster. The people of the village had no choice but to start a cruel act, constantly tricking the traveling merchants who passed by into the village, and then capturing them, so that they could live and wait for the tribute to the moon god.

Qianyunyue is the target this time. However, the slight difference is that he came by himself, and he took the initiative to stay, but because he seemed to know martial arts, there was no way to deal with it like ordinary people, so he was originally going to use Jiang Xiaoyu as bait to lure Qianyunyue into the bait, as long as he could drug the food, even if he was a martial artist, he would be able to catch it.

Qian Yunyue's scalp tingled when he heard this, fortunately his sub-profession is a chef, and he makes his own food on weekdays, speaking of which, someone brought him food on the first day, but he politely refused. In retrospect, it was my own pickiness that saved me.

"Speaking of which, what does this matter have to do with ancient books?" Qian Yunyue suddenly remembered Jiang Xiaoyu's strange expression when he saw the ancient book.

"That book is the Luna-sama's belongings, every time the Luna-sama appears, she has the book in her hand, I saw it a few times when I was a child, about eleven years ago, the book was lost, and the Luna-sama was furious about it, and later said that if you find someone with this book, you must bring it to her." Jiang Xiaoyu trembled a little when he talked about the moon god, and he looked very scared.

Qian Yunyue remembered and asked Yan Eighteen how he got this book, and he replied that he had picked it up from a cave. But at that time, his eyes were a little sparkling, and Qian Yunyue always felt that he still had something to hide from him.

"Were there outsiders in the village when the book was lost?" If Qian Yunyue guessed correctly, it is very likely that Yan Eighteen got this book in this village.

"Well, there were two people here, one young and one old, Lord Luna, said that they stole the ancient books and took away her treasures, I was still young at the time, I don't remember very clearly, I heard that it was two very powerful people, it seems that the whole village did not catch them."

Qian Yunyue guessed correctly, that young man was Yan Shiba's apprentice, the two came here together, originally thought it was a Taoyuan Township, but they didn't expect it to be a trap, and they were drugged in the meal the night before and arrested. After the two of them figured out what was going on, they decided to make a plan and make a fortune against him. As a result, the moon god did not get a man, and he also lost a large number of treasures, and even the ancient books were taken away by Yan Shiba.
