Chapter 5: The Daughter of the World

Ao Han stretched out his hand to Qiu Li and said, "Don't be afraid, I've already driven those wild people away. You're safe now, come down. Qiu Li didn't speak at first, still staying where she was, looking at the stranger suspiciously, and then after a moment of silence, she said into Ao Han's eyes: "Why did you save me?" Ao Han was a little overwhelmed by this question, and he was very puzzled and said: "No why, I can't watch you go to the Black Cong Mountains and sit idly by." If you go there, they will torture you to death, there are no women in that place. Qiu Li suddenly arched forward very anxiously and roared: "But if I didn't go to Ma Jiu's side, Ma Jiu would kill all of our Mamba tribe and kill my father, let us exterminate the clan, do you know?" Qiu Li still said unrelentingly: "How can you protect? We are so far away from you, and when you come to protect us, we will have already been wiped out by Ma Jiu, and besides, have you beaten him Ma Jiu?" Who told you to meddle and save me......" Qiu Li sobbed a little after finishing speaking, Ao Han stood in place with a dazed face, he didn't expect that he thought he had done a good deed but was told by Qiu Li, and the people around him also looked at each other, with a blank face and nothing to say.

The embarrassed Ao Han thought for a while and said: "It's okay, our river valley and plain are rich in resources, and when we go back later, I will immediately send someone to the upper north dangerous beach to pick up all your clansmen, do you think this is okay?" Qiu Li wiped his eyes slightly and looked at Ao Han, thinking that the matter had come to this point, so he had to follow Ao Han first. She nodded and then slowly bent over and walked out of the sedan chair, Ao Han stepped forward and grabbed her arm to keep her from falling. After Qiu Li stood up, Ao Han looked at her and said, "Come back to me first, I will take care of the affairs of the Mamba clan, don't worry." Qiu Li nodded a little helplessly. The cronies and soldiers on Ao Han's side stepped forward and put them on Ao Han's ear and said, "Patriarch, we haven't finished our business yet. Besides, integrating the Mamba into our Daemon is not a trivial matter for you alone, and those elders will not agree to let outsiders live in the valley plains for a long time. You made such a hasty decision, how can you explain it to the elders and this woman when the time comes. Ao Han looked at Qiu Li, he couldn't care so much, taking one step at a time, and at this time, the task of coming here to find medicinal flowers would have seemed to have made Ao Han forget to go out of the clouds if it wasn't for the reminder of his cronies. He mounted his horse and shouted, "This place is not for long, for the savages will turn back at any moment." Go back to your Mamba and tell your chief that her daughter is safe here in Daimon, and tell him not to worry that we will protect your Mamba and go back. Everyone hurry up to find the medicinal flowers, and strive to rush back before dawn tomorrow. With that, he pulled Chori onto his horse and headed east with the rest of the Daimon warriors.

The Daimon people stepped up their pace to search for the remaining Black Hair Ridge, and Qiu Li had been sitting on Ao Han's war horse and leaning on Ao Han. After going back and forth for an hour, Qiu Li finally asked, "What are you looking for?" Ao Han looked left and right and said, "A bright red flower, a medicine flower that can save people." Qiu Li didn't speak again, as if he was a little tired and closed his eyes and lay on Ao Han's back. Ao Han was startled by this momentary feeling, his blood was flowing rapidly, and his heart was beating extremely fast. He didn't know what was wrong with him, and the reins in his hand felt trembling slightly, but he was inexplicably happy. Qiu Li suddenly said silently: "There are no birds in this black hole, how can red flowers grow, it's really a fool's dream." Ao Han replied with a smile: "You have to give it a try." Qiu Li didn't speak again, and seemed to be tired and asleep.

They didn't find the magic medicine flower in the end, and after running along the mountain road all night, it was dawn the next day when they returned to the river valley plain. After returning to the settlement of the river valley plain, Ao Han helped Qiu Li to go to his room to rest first, and then he strode towards the old patriarch's house, the old patriarch was still the same, and Ao Han sat next to him and he didn't say a word. At this time, a voice came from a guard outside the door, "Patriarch, the elders of the council hall seem to be very angry when they call you over. Ao Han shook his hand and motioned for him not to disturb the old patriarch, then turned around and walked quickly towards the council hall.

Ao Han dragged his tired body and hurried towards the council hall, and as soon as he entered the door of the council hall, the seven Daemon clan elders who were sitting opposite him all stared at him with angry eyes. Ao Han already knew that someone had betrayed him when he saw their fierce and vicious looks, and Qiu Li's affairs should have been known to them. Before Ao Han could speak, a white-bearded elder in a black robe got up and scolded loudly: "You, you, have you forgotten what your uncle told you that day, don't let your young spirit act, why are you so unsightly, our Damon clan is highly respected here, do you think everyone is still in awe of us outside? Do you know who he Ma Jiu is? You dare to take his woman." Your uncle has dealt with him for the last two generations, and he himself doesn't know how long he has lived, and he has ruled for hundreds of years on a large land as far as the Durmaya Sea in the south, and you can't kill a thousand demons in his hands. Also, I heard that you are still going to contain the Mamba snake people to share the valley plains with us, you... What do you think, aren't you afraid that your patriarch's position will not be guaranteed? After the old man finished speaking, he coughed angrily.

Another elder who was over half a hundred years old hurriedly got up to help, and then said in a slightly soothing tone: "Ao Han, hurry up and send that woman back to Ma Jiu." Ma Jiu must have been greedy for her beauty to rob her, now you get her to us, let your people and the surrounding clansmen think, she can't stay with us without the blood of our Damon people, in the final analysis, your patriarch will marry a woman from our Damon tribe in the future, even if you have ideas, you can't ruin the bloodline of our Damon people for your own selfish desires, don't you understand the truth of Ao Han's red face and troubled water?" The other elders just nodded and didn't speak, Ao Han was speechless and made them have a little headache when they spoke, he was silent for a moment, then turned his head to the door and said, "I know what I should do, I will protect my people, please don't worry about it so much, elders." After saying that, he left everyone straight, and the elders of the Damon clan stared at each other with anxious eyes, and then accused: "Look at him, look at him", but Ao Han had already paced away from the council room.

Ao Han returned to his residence, Qiu Li was not sleeping, and was sitting on a chair staring at the sky outside. Ao Han walked in gently, he looked at Qiu Li, the sunlight sprinkled on Qiu Li's face through thousands of miles, Qiu Li's face was illuminated by this thin light, and the delicate facial features were clearer at this time. Ao Han couldn't bear to drive her away when he saw Qiu Li, and he couldn't bear to send her back to the Black Cong Mountains again.

Ao Han stepped forward a little shyly and approached Qiu Li and said, "You... Are you hungry?"

Qiu Li turned his face to look at Ao Han and suddenly laughed, "I'm going to say I'm hungry, why don't you just go find me something to eat!" Qiu Li spoke generously, not like a foreigner at all, but made Ao Han look like an outsider.

Ao Han also smiled, but the smile was stiff, "When... Of course, I'll get you whatever you want to eat. ”

Qiu Li turned his head and continued to look at the sky and said, "Anything. I just thought about it, yesterday you saved me, and I was angry with you. I was in too much of a hurry to do that, so I'm sorry, don't be angry with me, okay?" Qiu Li once again put his eyes on Ao Han's body, and his tone was still flat when he spoke, but his gaze became gentle.

Ao Han finally showed joy on his face, which was natural and not stiff, and he said, "Don't be angry, you live here first, don't worry about other things." I will take care of your Mamba affairs, and I will never let Ma Jiu's people hurt you. Believe me, okay?" Qiu Li smiled sweetly and nodded.

Neither of them was talking, Ao Han did not tell Qiu Li about the clan's opposition to the arrival of the Mamba tribe, he didn't dare to send someone to the north to the dangerous beach now, Ao Han felt a little embarrassed and said, "Then I'll go and find you something to eat first." ”

Qiu Li responded and said, "Okay, thank you." ”

After finishing speaking, Ao Han walked quickly outside.

For several days, the Daemon were not attacked by the Savages, and everything was still business as usual. Ao Han usually eats with his brothers, but on the third night, he had dinner alone with Qiu Li, and his brothers also knew that Ao Han had gotten a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city, and he knew that as a man, he didn't ask him to have dinner with them. These Daimon warriors are still young, those male and female traditions from their ancestors are not as deeply rooted as the elders, many people still like Qiu Li, of course, more are more disgusted, especially most women.

Ao Han can sit down and have dinner with Qiu Li I don't know how many ideological struggles have been done, when Ao Han and Qiu Li eat, Ao Han ate very slowly, he wanted to look up at Qiu Li but was never embarrassed to take a good look at Qiu Li, and Qiu Li was thinking about his family, and he didn't think about anything else, and the two of them didn't say a word during the whole dinner process. After eating, Ao Han still let Qiu Li sleep in his bed, while he went to huddle with his brothers as usual. For several nights in a row, Ao Han's heart was in a mess, he was not only worried that Ma Jiu would really raise troops to fight but was unwilling to abandon Qiu Li for the so-called etiquette, and he thought of the elders' disappointment in him and the danger of the old patriarch, he was even more anxious and couldn't sleep.

On the other side, on the side of the Heicong Mountains, Ma Jiu was furious when he heard the return of the savages report that Qiu Li had been snatched away by the Dimon clan. The great wizard Ma Jiu lives in a dark mountain cave in the Black Cong Mountains, and his wild tribe is distributed in seventeen of the eighteen mountains in the Black Cong Mountains, and the remaining one called the Iron Gate Mountain is locked in Ma Jiu's deadly weapon. After hearing this, Ma Jiu stroked the black robe of the wizard behind him, glared at the deep eyes painted with black ink, shook his head left and right and roared loudly: "Ah Man, what kind of heir did you choose, and you actually grabbed my head." The savage chief under Ma Jiu's seat stepped forward and said, "Master, do you want to send troops to the Dimon tribe to snatch the woman back?" After a pause, Ma Jiu said to the savage chieftain, "You lead three thousand people to the Mamba tribe first, and take all the people of the Mamba tribe to ask the Daimon dignitaries in the Cross Fish River." Let the Mamba want their own people, and see if they still can't pay it back. The savage chief thought for a moment and then said, "If there is a conflict at that time, how can we three thousand people be the opponents of the Daimon clan." Ma Jiu lowered his head and said impatiently: "Do you think they dare to fight us?" The Damon clan is not so belligerent, with those old men putting pressure on their patriarch, he will definitely hand them over, go, go, this trivial matter is not enough to meet with swords." ”

After the savage chief agreed, he immediately gathered 3,000 strong savage scimitars and archers from the mountains and secretly rushed from the Black Cong Mountains to the north of the Mamba tribe.

In the evening of the second day after the departure of the savages, Ao Han and his sibling Huo Gan, the most famous general in the clan, arrived on the banks of the Yujiang River after hunting. Ao Han was dizzy by those troubles, and as his brother Huo Gan, he also understood the bitterness in Ao Han's heart. Looking at the calm mirror-like river, Hogan said, "Tell me the truth, did you fall in love with that Mamba woman?" Ao Han lowered his head with some hesitation, then raised his head again and said, "Maybe." What's the matter, there's no way I'm going to marry her. Huo Gan smiled and picked up a stone in his hand, then looked at Ao Han and retorted, "Why not?" "This is the rule of the Daimon tribe, the Mamba tribe is a low-class tribe, if I marry her, it will bring shame to the Daimon tribe." Ao Han looked at Jiang Mian and said helplessly. At this moment, Ao Han suddenly felt that the noble bloodline that had made him proud countless times would be his fetters, but even as the head of the clan, he couldn't change anything. Huo Gan couldn't continue to say anything, after all, the ancestral precepts that have been passed down are above all else, and if he says more, it will be a big crime to sentence the clan, he just patted Ao Han on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry too much, everything will come naturally." Ao Han laughed, and Huo Gan also laughed, it is not easy for the two brothers, who are as close as flesh and blood, to achieve a tacit understanding on the battlefield or in the love field of their children.

After a brief pause, they rode back to the Daemon colony, and Ao Han quietly walked to his house, gently pushed the door open and walked in, a little moonlight shining in the dim corner. After entering the door, Ao Han first slowly closed the door, and then turned around, and he was startled when he turned around and saw Qiu Li's appearance. Qiu Li seemed to have a big nightmare, she was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her body was convulsive, her face was sweating profusely, and her two hands kept grabbing the quilt back and forth and rubbing it. Ao Han hurriedly sat down beside Qiu Li to soothe her, and Qiu Li was awakened by this touch and plunged into Ao Han's arms. Ao Han was a little overwhelmed by this sudden impact, and he hurriedly touched Qiu Li's somewhat wet hair and comforted: "It's okay... It's okay, it was just a nightmare. After Qiu Li gradually calmed down, he suddenly raised his head and said to Ao Han in a panic: "Didn't you promise me to bring my family and them to you? Why haven't you gone yet, you shouldn't have lied to me." Ma Jiu has already sent someone to arrest them, and it will really be too late if you don't go. A cool breeze blew outside the house, and then there was no sound.

Ao Han wiped the sweat from her forehead, and then said into Qiu Li's eyes, "You really just had a nightmare just now, don't be so nervous." I still need to convince the elders of the clan, and I will pick them up in a few days. It will only take two days to take a trail from the river valley plain to the Mamba tribe, and the wild people of Ma Jiu will go for at least ten days, don't worry if you have time, okay? Qiu Li pushed Ao Han away and said loudly: "It's not a nightmare, it's not a nightmare, it's true, you have a trail to walk, and the savages can also go to the dangerous beach, they can shorten the distance by half by forcing through the dark forest, and they have set off now." I can see, I can really see. ”

But Ao Han still looked unhurried, Qiu Li was really anxious now. She suddenly cried and said to Ao Han: "You big liar, you go away, I don't need you to save them, I'll go to Ma Jiu's side now, don't stop me." Seeing this, Ao Han was also anxious, of course he wouldn't let Qiu Li go, he saw that she was crying, and it was not good to explain the nightmare to her, Ao Han hurriedly apologized and said: "Don't don't, I'll send someone to pick them up immediately, don't cry, how could I lie to you." After finishing speaking, Ao Han secretly called Huo Gan to tell him about the matter, and Huo Gan just smiled at Qiu Li's unreasonable troubles and said, "You can think about it, this is not a trivial matter if it is discovered by the clansmen." Ao Han said with a solemn face: "I can't care so much, in case what she said is true, bring people in first, and then settle a few hundred people." ”

Hogan didn't say anything, and the words of the good brother naturally went to do it immediately, and he secretly led two hundred people to ride overnight towards the Mamba tribe in the east. Hogan led his men to rush east along the mountain road, and at the same time, the three thousand warriors led by the slowly marching savage chief were about to cross the dark forest, and the only people in the dark forest who did not dare to approach those astonishing animals should be Ma Jiu's people. Throughout the night, Qiu Li sat on the bed and couldn't sleep, and Ao Han stayed outside the house and didn't leave.

At midnight, the cool breeze blew again, but there was no sound but the wind, and a sound that ran rampant was more chilling than the silence. Qiu Li shouted outside, "Can you come in?" Ao Han hesitated after hearing Qiu Li's shout, then slowly pushed open the door and walked in. After entering the door, he sat on a chair near the door, and Qiu Li in the dark whispered, "What I just said may be a bit excessive, will you be angry?" Ao Han shook his head and smiled, he said a little dumbfounded, "No." I couldn't say that I was happy, but the two of them didn't speak again, and after a few minutes, Qiu Li said again: "You come and sit next to me." Ao Han was a little stunned but even more surprised, he usually walked mightily at this time, but he moved to Qiu Li's side as shy as a little woman, and after he sat down, Qiu Li put his right arm around his left arm and then rested his head on his shoulder and closed his eyes. Ao Han instantly stood motionless as if he was frozen, Qiu Li said: "It's not easy for me to have nightmares when I sit and fall asleep like this, I won't see those terrible things, will you put me on the bed and walk after I fall asleep?" Good. ”

Before the sun set the next day, Hogan finally got ahead of the savage chieftain and came to the Mamba first. The Mambas had heard the news that the Daimon had come to pick them up, and after a simple tidying up, the hundreds of people of the tribe gave up the dangerous shoals that had raised the Mambas for several generations, and followed Hoogan all the way to the valley plains to the west. The day after their departure, the 3,000-strong army of the savage chieftain reached the territory of the Mamba tribe. When the savage chief saw the scene of the people going to the empty building, he immediately became angry, and he immediately ordered the whole army to march to the Yujiang River to the west.

Hogan succeeded in bringing the entire Mamba back to the valley plains, and when Qiu Li saw his biological parents, tears fell into her eyes. Ao Han was also quite relieved to see this situation, but the paper couldn't contain the fire, and so many people came at once and soon spread throughout the entire Daimon clan, and they aroused the strong dissatisfaction of the elders and many Daemon people who opposed the stop of outsiders. In the eyes of these opponents, the Mamba are down-and-out souls who are not worthy of living with the Daimon, but no one dares to say anything publicly, after all, this is the will of the patriarch, and it is not beneficial for anyone to openly oppose it.

Ao Han also knew in his heart that his people were rejecting these dissidents, and he placed the entire Mamba tribe on the southwest side of the river valley plain where the grain was originally stored, he believed that one day everyone would slowly accept them, and the relationship between Ao Han and his elders was becoming more and more rigid, many people were blaming Ao Han for his rebellion, and the elders kept complaining that the old patriarch was short-sighted and chose the wrong heir.

Two days later, the defenders on the east side of the Yujiang River reported that thousands of troops of the Savage Race had arrived at the Yujiang River. When the elders of the Damon clan heard this, they all complained and accused Ao Han and said, "It's over, Ma Jiu has already sent someone to attack us." Ao Han, hand over that woman and drive out that group of Gentiles, do you want to watch us exterminate the clan?" The warriors gathered together and did not speak, but looked at Ao Han with resolute eyes, Ao Han understood the words in those eyes, and he leaned back to the Seven Great Elders and said to the Daemon warriors with armor and spears in hand, "Since they dare to come, we will beat them back." The Daimon have never feared anyone, and sooner or later the cowardly people will perish, so the warriors will take up your weapons and go with me to meet them. After Ao Han finished speaking, the hot blood in the body of the Damon warrior surged, and everyone raised their weapons and shouted the slogan of swearing to defend the Damon clan to the death, and several elders shouted angrily: "It's over, it's over..."

The Damon tribe quickly gathered seven thousand warriors and prepared to march towards the Yujiang River, and before Ao Han left, Qiu Li stood in the distance and looked at him silently. Ao Han looked back at Qiu Li's eyes, and at that moment he vaguely felt a feeling of being loved. He whispered to Qiu Li, "Wait for me to come back." Qiu Li silently nodded in the distance, and the two began to cherish each other.

The Daemons soon arrived on the west bank of the Yujiang River, and the army of the savage chieftain stood on the east bank, and the two armies faced each other across the river. Huo Gan rode a war horse in a white armor and walked to Ao Han's side and said, "Did Ma Jiu send these people to attack us, are they here to fight or to negotiate peace?"

A few minutes later, the Savage Chief led a dozen of his followers to row towards Aohan's side, and Aohan immediately led Hogan and a dozen others to join him in a boat to the east. The two boats met in the middle of the fish river, and the savage chief roared angrily at Ao Han: "Acquaintance, hurry up and hand over that woman from the Mamba tribe, we don't want to cause trouble for a woman, I think you should know the power of the great wizard." ”

Ao Han responded with a smile, "I won't give you that woman." We Daimon have never been threatened by anyone, and if she voluntarily goes to your Black Cong Mountains, I will naturally give you respectfully. But you rely on the power to compete, and I will not sit idly by. If you insist on settling this matter by war, then we Daimon will be with you to the end. The savage chief stared at Ao Han with an angry face, and Ao Han also stared at him deadly, and a flock of birds circled back and forth in the sky. After holding each other for nearly half a minute, the savage chief said helplessly: "It is no good for you to oppose the great wizard like this, do you know who that woman is? What use can she have in your hands, if you want a beautiful woman to give you as much as you want, hand her over so that there will be no discord among the people in your clan." Ao Han replied, "Don't talk nonsense, I won't give it to whoever she is." The savage chief had no intention of provoking a war, so he had to turn around and sail back, and the three thousand savage warriors left the Yujiang River and rushed in the direction of the Heicong Mountains. The Daemon drove the enemy away without a single soldier, and although they did not know what was happening, they cheered according to tradition.

After the savage chief returned to the Black Cong Mountains, he told Ma Jiu what had happened and Ao Han's words, and Ma Jiu was expressionless and silent, and he let the savage chief retreat without saying anything.

When the Mamba came to the valley plains, they toiled with the Daimon, and more and more people began to accept these foreigners, even if they still had a condescending posture in their speech activities. The relationship between Ao Han and Qiu Li is also getting closer and closer, Ao Han will no longer be swayed by the words of the elders, he admits that he loves Qiu Li very much, as for the matter of marriage and childbirth, Ao Han believes that through his own efforts, the Dimon people will accept this foreign daughter-in-law, it is only a matter of time.

Ao Han often took Qiu Li to take care of the old patriarch, and the old patriarch liked this gentle and considerate foreign girl very much. After two months of this incident, one evening in mid-May, when Qiu Li was feeding the old patriarch, the old patriarch said to Qiu Li after eating a few bites: "That's all for today's meal, go and call Ao Han for me, I have something to tell him." After Qiu Li took the leftovers and saluted, he went out and called Ao Han in.

The old patriarch used a lot of strength to sit up and look at Ao Han, Ao Han insisted on him lying down, the old patriarch waved his hand again and again and said, "Don't lie down, it won't be long before I will lie down forever." I have something to say to you today, and it seems that our uncle and nephew haven't spoken properly for a while. ”

Ao Han hurriedly said: "Uncle Man, don't say that, everyone is looking forward to you living for ten or eight years." ”

The old patriarch opened his chapped white lips and smiled, "Haha, then I will really become an old monster." Ao Han, what's happened outside recently, how did Qiu Li, a foreigner, know you?"

Ao Han didn't hide anything from the old patriarch, so he told everything from the words of the old man of the Snow Girl Clan to the snatching of Ma Jiu's sedan chair in Heimaoling. He had thought that the old patriarch would blame him, but the old patriarch did not. The old patriarch sighed and said, "Ah Li, I've lived for seventy or eighty years and I'm still so young, what an old monster." I didn't expect him to ask him for the secret of longevity for a lifetime and not tell me, but he actually told you. ”

Ao Han said regretfully, "It's a pity that I didn't find that medicinal flower for you. ”

The old patriarch smiled stiffly, "What's the pity, life and death are fixed, and I won't taste a bite if you find it for me." Do you think that flower is really that magical? If it can make people live a long life, why does he tell you not to taste it? Everything is given and given, after Ali, the poor worm, became strong and strong from that year, his psychology was also distorted, often holding his head in the middle of the night and struggling, he would go crazy every few days, he had been hovering on the edge of the world and hell all his life, he was better to live than to die, you know. Speaking of true immortality, I have really seen a person like that, too long ago, escaped from the darkness and slashed into the invisible. The old patriarch's eyes were flashing, and the clearly visible tears reflected the vicissitudes of the years, which was a kind of gaze full of admiration, and no one knew what the old patriarch had experienced and met when he was young. "Oh yes, you robbed Qiu Li, didn't Ma Jiu come to ask you for someone?" he put away the ripples that walked to the corner of his eyes, and looked at the descendants in front of him peacefully.

Speaking of this, Ao Han said proudly: "Of course I came, but Ma Jiu is not sure of winning me." Two months ago, Ma Jiu only sent his savage chieftain with three thousand men to ask for people, and we didn't have a conflict, and they were taken away by me, and he himself understood that it was not worth it to have a war for beauty. ”

The old patriarch shook his head and said meaningfully, "Wizard Ma Jiu has lived for hundreds of years, and I have dealt with him since I was young. has lived for so long, and he has long looked down on the love of his children. He would never come thousands of miles to ask you because of Qiu Li's beauty, this woman must be extraordinary, she must have something outstanding to make Ma Jiu so fascinated. Ma Jiu didn't want to fight you at all, if he really insisted on attacking you, do you think you could win him? In that Tiemen Mountain in the Black Cong Mountains, there are eighteen pterosaurs fed by Ma Jiu's blood, that is, eighteen cursed demons have survived from ancient times, and they can't kill him even if they spit out tens of thousands of degrees of flames from their mouths, if he is released, how sure are you that they can win him?"

Ao Han was shocked into a cold sweat by the old patriarch's description, and he said: "Ma Jiu, it turned out that it was not as vicious as I imagined. ”

The old patriarch shook Ao Han's hand and said, "Yes, he is a good man. Hey, let's not talk about him, let's talk about you. In the end, I still don't worry about you, before doing anything, you must make a decision after careful thinking, these things you told me are very reckless. This world is not as simple as you think, and if you make a negligent step, it may kill you. I've been cautious all my life, and when I make every decision, I think about even the details like my hair over and over again. Even with such care, I don't know how many times in my life I have hovered on the brink of death. You still have a lot to challenge, your real journey has just begun, and everything, whether you win or lose, is a lesson. ”

Ao Han nodded repeatedly, indicating that he remembered the old patriarch's words. At this time, the old patriarch suddenly lowered his head with a smile and whispered, "You, do you like Qiu Li?"

Ao Han hesitated, he didn't know how to answer. If it is not, it is obviously a lie, and if it is, it means that he is challenging the family rules of the Dimon clan for generations. The old patriarch saw his thoughts, and he suddenly clenched Ao Han's hand and said: "It is not easy for people to live for a lifetime, some decisions you will regret for a lifetime if you do it, and some will regret it for a lifetime if you don't do it." I have made so many decisions that seem wise to others, and many of them have become lifelong regrets for me. At the Sacred Fire Banquet that day, what did you say about the noble blood of the Damon clan, and I told you that no one in this world can distinguish between high and low, only good and evil. Hundreds of our tribes are divided by geography and blood, and any tribe that enters a territory that does not belong to them for a certain period of time will be executed for any reason, which is an iron rule, but I have always asked myself why this is the case. The blood that flows is all red, and the appearance is all a person, where can we distinguish who is more noble than whom? The Dimon have always been considered the noblest race, and I would never think of it that way. My biggest failure as a patriarch is that I have not changed the condescending attitude of the rest of the Daemon clan towards foreigners, and it is more uncomfortable for people's freedom, life, and feelings to be controlled by foreign objects than death. Go for what you want, don't let yourself regret it, or that day, no matter what you do, I believe in you, and I still am. ”

Ao Han didn't seem to understand the old patriarch's words, he could understand that the old patriarch asked him to work hard to chase his love, but he felt that it was not so simple to have words in his words. The old patriarch slowly lay down, he held Ao Han's hand and said, "I'm going to rest for a while, you go about your own business." ”

Ao Han watched the old patriarch hesitate for a moment before leaving, leaving only this great soul who was about to go to another world in the dark and restless air. A few days later, the old patriarch passed away peacefully, and the Dimon clan held a grand funeral to see off this legendary figure of his life.

Summer is approaching, and this year's summer is unusually hot, and the weather just before May is hotter than in July and August. People in the north and south began to prepare to store water to cope with the arrival of the scorching heat, but at this time, a terrifying sound suddenly came from the Tianwan Mountain, a no-man's land in the north.
