"Before you go on a journey, you have to write down all these books. ”

Lan Ye stretched out his hand and pressed it on the thick stack of books, and suddenly puffed up a cloud of dust.

Bai Xiao could see clearly that Lan Ye had taken out these books from his white bone altar, which meant that each one was a taboo for the tribe, and only the chief witch and the tribal leader were qualified to read it.

"You fell in love with the Damned Daughter, and trespassed on the Holy Mountain, the taboo of the tribe has been violated more than once, and you have been appointed as a messenger of war, so that you can atone for your sins. Lan Ye said with a serious face. "You're going to find a girlfriend in the Southern Continent...... No, to make meritorious contributions, you must know yourself and your opponent. And the quickest way to get to know the South is to read books. ”

Bai Xiao frowned: "Isn't the fastest way to go to the south and capture a few prisoners to torture?"

Lan Ye was silent for a while, and decided to pretend that he hadn't heard this. Then he opened the top, the largest and heaviest book in the pile, and said, "Let's look at the map first." ”

The first page of the book is unfolded, revealing a square color map, one meter square, showing two brown continents, without any text on them, and the paint has faded due to age, and the image appears slightly blurry. Bai Xiao looked at it for a while, turned the atlas in a different direction, pointed to one of the continents and asked, "Is this the Northern Snow Mountain?

Lan Ye smiled, flipped the atlas back, and stretched out his hand to point to the top of the continent on the left: "This map with the lightest color is the Northern Snow Mountain." ”

Bai Xiao was taken aback, the faint white area could only occupy less than one-tenth of a single continent.

The Southern Continent, is it so vast!?

"What we call the Southern Continent is just the Western Continent of the entire world, and the Western Continent is only a new world that was reclaimed by immigrants from the Eastern Continent two thousand years ago. The outside world is incomparably vast, and if you want to make a career in the south, there is only one way to go, and study hard for me! Learn all this valuable knowledge and know the south better than the southerners!"

Bai Xiao really wanted to say that he didn't plan to make a career at all, and he just went south to find his girlfriend...... However, looking at the two vast brown lands on the map, he was speechless for a while.

Lan Ye nodded: "Okay, let's look at the next page, the gray plain bordering the southern continent and the northern border......"

And after saying this, Lan Ye got up and left, as the chief witch Zhu, his daily work was very busy, especially when the tribal leader was not doing his job all day long, it was impossible to spend too much time teaching Bai Xiao to read.

What's more, those southern books in the White Bone Altar, he himself only read a little bit about it.

Everything that rests is up to the kid himself.

——

The tent of the chief witch was filled with a refreshing incense, and the blood and bone pillar incense refined by Lan Ye himself could make people concentrate more and ignore the distractions of the outside world.

Bai Xiao breathed in the scent of blood and bones, and soon forgot the passage of time, the thick atlas covered with dust was absorbed and digested by him in this kind of trance, and the vast southern continent drawn in the map, from the gray plains adjacent to the snow-capped mountains in the north to the southernmost forest bay, every line, every color block was deeply engraved in his mind.

As the chief hunter of the younger generation of the white-clothed tribe of the Snow Mountain, Bai Xiao knew very well the importance of geographical advantage, so although the longing for Qingyue in his heart was like a hungry beast constantly gnawing at his heart, he still resisted the urge to go south immediately and absorbed every detail of the map.

Until the intense hunger in his belly woke him up.

Eat when you are hungry, Bai Xiao relied on his body's instinct to easily find the granary of the chief Wu Zhu of the tribe, Lan Ye was not there, he was the master here, after unceremoniously feasting, Bai Xiao opened the second book in the pile of books by himself.

History of Human Civilization

The history books of the southerners have serious flaws, there is no record of the snow-capped mountains in the north, and even their own early history is vague, the change of dynasties thousands of years ago, and the break between the dynasties of the eastern and western continents, almost in one stroke, and the sum does not exceed two hundred words. Only the history of the Great Qin Dynasty, which has lasted from 1,400 years ago to the present day, has been recorded in detail, and then each emperor has been wise and flawless.

But it is still precious for people who have never known about the world beyond the snowy mountains.

In the past ten years, Qingyue has dreamed of seeing such a history book, she has always believed that there is an incomparably vast and prosperous civilized world beyond the snow-capped mountains, so vast that the white-clothed tribes that have existed in the snow-capped mountains for thousands of years will seem insignificant, and she has guessed countless times in the night sky what the civilization of the south and the history of the south will look like.

And Bai Xiao is now reading the history of civilization written by southerners, and it is not surprising to find that most of Qingyue's conjectures are correct!

She is indeed a peerless genius who belongs to the south...... When Bai Xiao thought of this, he felt indescribably relieved.

Until the hunger in his belly woke him up.

After feasting again, Bai Xiao began to flip through the third book.

Art History of the Great Qin Dynasty

——

The sun rises and the moon sets, and time flies.

Until the chief Wu Zhu of the tribe, facing the empty granary that was difficult to survive the winter, woke Bai Xiao up with a desperate face, Bai Xiao had already read through the pile of books in front of him once.

The history of art, literature, the history of war, the books in the altar, most of them are history, and the rest are novels, which are not comprehensive, but they are enough for a person who knows nothing about the South to form a contour in his mind that is beginning to take shape.

Bai Xiao took a lot more time than expected, and he vaguely remembered that he had been hungry and full five times, which was about half a month...... This also made Bai Xiao more deeply aware that he was really not a smart person, compared to Qingyue, who never forgot at a glance, he was like a mentally retarded.

But on the other hand, Bai Xiao didn't think that this half a month was wronged, without this half a month of studying, he would be blind even if he went to the south, and this is undoubtedly a taboo in hunting.

"Are you ready?" asked Chief Wu Zhu.

Bai Xiao nodded.

"That's good. Lan Ye sighed, "Because even if you are not prepared, I can't help you, I don't know anything about the Southern Continent like you, and I can only rely on the knowledge in books to conjecture." It was a cursed land that had indulged in the path of demons and been forbidden by the ancestors, and no one had set foot in the tribe for thousands of years. ”

"It's okay, I know what I'm going to do. ”

Bai Xiao left Lan Ye's tent with a rock-solid will, returned all the way to his home, carried the luggage that had been packed a long time ago, and was about to leave the tribe and go south, but as soon as he walked out of the door, he was grabbed by an unusually strong and powerful hand and dragged over.

"You kid wait a minute. ”

Bai Xiao didn't struggle, because the physical gap between him and Bai Wuya at this stage made all struggles meaningless, although he didn't like Bai Wuya very much, but he also had to admit that the other party was a veritable tribal god of war.

But even if Bai Wuya was ten times stronger, it was impossible to change his decision.

"I'm not going to stop you, but I'm here to help you. ”

Bai Xiao was full of suspicion, one of the biggest opposition forces to the love affair between him and Qingyue was the chief god of war from the tribe in front of him, he was always full of prejudice against Qingyue's slender and beautiful figure, and tried to impose his dirty and embarrassing values on Bai Xiao.

Bai Wuya didn't explain too much, because even if he explained, the other party might not believe it, so he only said the main point.

"Forget all the books you read with the old man, it's useless. ”

Bai Xiao suddenly frowned, this kind of horse began to stop talking again.

However, then, Bai Wuya said: "Those books are the trophies collected by the tribal warriors 100 years ago when a group of southerners came to invade the snow-capped mountains without knowing whether they were alive or dead, and they are the supplies carried by the officers. The documented knowledge is neither comprehensive nor timely. If you really believe what the book says, and have a preconceived impression of the South, it's like thinking of the bones as herbivores and going deep into the snow. ”

Bai Xiao suddenly became serious when he heard this, the fierce bones are also a few fierce beasts in the entire northern snow-capped mountains, and the twelve sharp cheekbones on the outside of the mouthparts can burst out with the help of the internal pressure of the mouth, and the hardest metal is suddenly pierced, it is a fierce beast that Bai Xiao has been difficult to hunt alone until three mountain closure seasons ago, if he has a wrong impression of it, it is tantamount to killing himself.

"But those books are the only thing we know about the southern continent, after all, no one has ever left the tribe and gone deep into the south in all these years. ”

Bai Wuya sneered: "I've been." ”

Bai Xiao was stunned for a long time, and unexpectedly found that he was not much surprised by this.

The burly and sturdy tribal leader in front of him had done so many ridiculous things in his life that it didn't seem particularly strange to go deep into the southern continent in violation of the tribal ban.

But Bai Xiao couldn't stop being curious about this.

"When?"

"Sixteen years ago, the year your mother tragically died trying to give birth to you. ”

Bai Xiao took a deep breath to calm the sudden anger that surged up, as soon as your lover died, you left the tribe and ran to the south alone?

Bai Wuya raised his head, and his voice was a little vicissitudes.

"I've heard that there is a way to bring the dead back to life in the South. ”

Bai Xiao's anger dissipated instantly.

"Of course, it's a rumor. Bai Wuya said, "I searched for three years in the Southern Continent, and I only found countless rumors and myths, and there was no one who could come back from the dead. But those three years of travel also gave me a very important harvest. ”

Bai Xiao looked up at him with a curious gaze.

Bai Wuya smiled: "I have met countless confidants. ”

Bai Xiao punched over, Bai Wuya very skillfully dodged sideways, and blocked the bone spear that came from the diagonal stab with his left hand.

Shaking his slightly numb wrist, Bai Wuya couldn't help but admire Bai Xiao's talent in his heart, when he was also 16 years old, he was far from Bai Xiao's ability, but it was a pity that such a talented child was blind to a flat-chested woman......

"Kid, use your brain, what do you need most right now?"

Bai Xiao frowned, and changed the bone spear to two hands, what he needed most now was to stab this stallion to death with one shot.

"You're blinded by impulse. Bai Wuya commented, "Think about it carefully, what are you doing when you go to the Southern Continent?"

"Find Kiyotsuki. ”

"And then?"

Bai Xiao was silent for a while and said, "I don't know." ”

Bai Xiao really didn't know what to do, he just subconsciously couldn't accept the fact that he was separated from Qing Yue, and he couldn't accept that Qing Yue had forgotten every bit of the two of them, but even if he really found Qing Yue in the Southern Continent, what could he do?

Take her back? Back to this snow-capped mountain that discriminated against her and rejected her for 16 years?

The southerner named Zhu Junshen painted an incomparably beautiful picture for her, the bustling southern city, the holy Demon Dao Academy, and the terrifying power called the Apocalypse...... All of this is far more suitable for Qingyue than the white-clothed tribe in the ice and snow.

If Zhu Junshen hadn't lied, if he really regarded Qingyue as a treasure, a genius, and was willing to cultivate her into an excellent demon daoist, then Bai Xiao couldn't think of any reason to hinder him.

It doesn't prevent Qingyue from living and practicing in the Southern Continent, and she doesn't want her to forget herself, so the only way is to stay in the south, but regardless of his obligations to the tribe as the son of a leader, he really doesn't want to live in a strange land.

The Southern Continent is indeed a magical and beautiful place, but Bai Xiao prefers snow-capped mountains.

"You're thinking too much. Bai Wuya sneered at this, "That little girl is right, you are not a smart person, so don't force yourself to think like a smart person, you are my son, you should learn my methods, and if I am you, at this time, I will not think about the Southern Continent at all, but focus on one of the most important issues." ”

Bai Wuya paused, waiting for Bai Xiao to think for himself.

Bai Xiao thought for a long time and shook his head: "I can't think of any other ideas in your mind besides mating." ”

Bai Wuya gave a thumbs up: "It's worthy of being my son, that's right, if I were you, there would only be one thing on my mind now, how to sleep with Qingyue! Don't be in a hurry to get angry, your so-called vows and mountain alliances, in the final analysis, don't you still have to implement them? On the other hand, imagine if she can sleep with you willingly, what are you not satisfied with?"

Bai Xiao opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything to refute it.

As a young man with strong blood, of course he imagined the intimate behavior with Qingyue, in fact, the relationship between the two was long enough to support them to enjoy the joy of fish and water, and he didn't put it into practice, just because Qingyue's physical condition was too poor.

If one day, they can love men and women to their heart's content, then it must mean that Qingyue has regained her love for Bai Xiao and her body has recovered to a very healthy body.

With these two items, Bai Xiao really didn't know what else he should hope for.

"So you don't have to think about how to adapt to the environment of the Southern Continent from the beginning, after all, you don't really want to conquer the Southern Continent, when I left the Snow Mountain, I didn't even know anything about the South, but within 3 years, I had a triple-digit Southern woman. ”

Bai Xiao only felt disgusted when he heard this.

"But you have to admit that when it comes to sleeping with women, I am an absolute genius, and there is no doubt that the Grand Master has attained even more than my martial arts as a chief warrior. So I can tell you that with your current appearance, even if you find Qingyue, it will never be possible for her to like you, let alone sleep with you, now she doesn't remember everything that happened to you, and she is no longer a cursed and weak tribe. That southerner cares about her seriously, and the power he has is genuine, so Qingyue will live like a princess in the southern continent, and you, a barbarian from a foreign land in the snowy mountains—this is how the southerners all look at us, why should Princess Qingyue look at you differently?"

This question was almost suffocated by Bai Xiao, although he was not smart, but he was definitely not stupid, so this question had already come to mind as soon as he woke up, even before he fell into a coma, when he heard Zhu Junshen's words.

If Qingyue has forgotten their past, then how can they continue their love?

Bai Xiao is not presumptuous, he knows his value very well, in the tribe, he is also the man who is most liked by young girls, but these values are meaningless to Qingyue. From the moment she bore Zhu Yue's curse on the night of her birth, she had values that were very different from those of the tribesmen.

Bai Xiao has never attracted her because of her outstanding martial arts and tempered body, let alone her status as the son of a leader, but in the entire tribe, Bai Xiao is the person who can understand her best and approach her.

Although Bai Xiao is not smart, he can always keenly guess Qingyue's thoughts and help her when she needs it most.

But in the Southern Continent, all this may no longer be rare, so ......

"So you need the help of professionals, just like a helpless man who goes into the snowy mountains to hunt, and he needs the teaching of the most experienced hunters. Bai Wuya said, "Now, put down your package and come with me to learn something really useful." ”

Bai Xiao didn't struggle anymore, and followed Bai Wuya back to the tent, and at this time, he realized that when he was studying hard in Lan Ye's tent, his family had changed a lot.

A huge package of animal skins, squarely placed in the middle of the room, had been too eager to turn a blind eye to his belongings just now.

Bai Wuya walked to the package, patted it, and said, "This is the luggage I packed for you, and it is also the first lesson I want to teach you." Boy, let me ask you, with what you have learned so far, what is the most important thing to go to the Southern Continent?"

Bai Xiao recalled what Lan Ye said in the book, pondered for a long time, and said: "Follow the customs of the locals." ”

"This is nonsense, when you get to other people's territory, of course, you have to abide by other people's rules, but do you think that these four words can make you travel unhindered in the southern continent? In Lan Wu's book, at most, tell you how southerners do it, why they do it, and you have memorized those books well in the past half a month, and you may have a deeper understanding of southern folk customs than some southerners...... But does it work?"

Bai Xiao was a little puzzled.

"To give a simple example, Qingyue's girl knows all the rules of the tribe well, and she can even argue eloquently with Lan Wu during the ceremony, quoting scriptures without falling behind. In terms of hunting, she has a wealth of more than 3,500 species of animals and plants known and recorded on the Daxue Mountain, and can even drag the crippled body to hunt with you and help you design traps. But is she doing well in the tribe?"

Bai Xiao said angrily: "It's not because you have to say that she is a cursed daughter!"

"Yes, it's us who cling to the cripples, and we're obsessed with the curses of the ancients, but do you have a solution? As the son of a tribal leader, you haven't been able to change everyone's prejudice against her for sixteen years. So don't expect that after you go to the south, you can change the prejudice of southerners against you through your own efforts. For southerners, those of us who are born in the north outside the territory of civilization are a kind of original sin in themselves, and when you arrive on the southern continent, you are equivalent to bearing the curse of Zhu Yue. ”

Bai Xiao's face gradually became solemn.

These things, of course, will not be written in Lan Ye's books, the southern continent in the book, civilization, prosperity, tolerance, a Great Qin Dynasty radiates dozens of small countries around it, and then together constitute the civilization circle of the Western Continent, such a grand scene, in the small snow-capped mountains and white-clothed tribes, it is unimaginable. Therefore, Bai Xiao never thought that there would be such a serious xenophobia in the Southern Continent.

He didn't doubt what Bai Wuya said, he was indeed a shameless stallion, but his rhetoric would only confide in women, and he never joked when he was teaching his son. He had secretly traveled to the south, and all this must have been his own experience, so ......

"That's why I want to say that rote books are useless, and I suffered from them in the first place...... Before I went down the mountain, I secretly read all the books in the old man's altar, and when I arrived on the southern continent, I carefully observed them for a long time, corresponding them to the records in the books, so that I was no different from the southerners in terms of dress, speech and behavior, and even more civilized and graceful than them. But as a result, in exchange for other people's four words: Mu Monkey and Crown. So if you read a few books and confidently run to the south to meet Qingyue, it is nothing more than going to play monkey tricks for others. ”

Bai Xiao swallowed silently, feeling a little nervous.

According to his original plan, it was indeed a long drive all the way to the Red Mountain Academy in Red Mountain City along the direction shown on the map to find Qingyue, and now it seems that ......

"You probably won't even see her, and in the south, it's very difficult for two people with too different identities to even meet. ”

"So, what do I do?"

"Throw money. Bai Wuya said, sighing, "I also traveled in the south for a year, and finally found out that all the etiquette, righteousness and shame of the southerners are false, only money is true, as long as there is money, any civilized etiquette is dispensable." When you don't have money, you wear gold and silver, and people laugh at you for being a monkey, and when you have money, being naked belongs to the nature of honesty and innocence, so instead of memorizing a stack of outdated books, you should bring a bag full of gold and silver jewelry. ”

Bai Xiao was dumbfounded when he heard it, and he only felt that this cultural phenomenon of southerners was simply incomprehensible.

"What's so unreasonable about this, our white-clothed tribe is not the same, it's just that the southerners respect money, and we respect martial arts. As long as a person is good enough to fight, no matter how many problems there are, it is also a white and slightly flawed. ”

Bai Xiao couldn't help but snort coldly, this example is too vivid.

"Then let me put it another way, if Qingyue is not that sickly appearance, but a living dragon and a tiger, fighting all over the snow mountains invincible, do you think her curse is still a thing?"

Bai Xiao tried to imagine the scene where Qingyue punched Bai Wuya and kicked Blue Witch...... It's not good, I can't help but get excited.

However, if there really is such a day, the curse of Zhu Yue is not worth mentioning at all.

"So, as long as I have money, I can run rampant in the southern continent, even if I don't know their customs and traditions? ”

Bai Wuya said, "I have it." Although it is not the silver yuan that is common in the southern continent, gold, silver and jade still have a price there. ”

"Gold, silver and jade...... I think there's a mine on the other side of the Bone Cliff?"

"Bone Cliff, Golden Lake, Zhuyuetai...... There are more than 100 mines that I know of alone, otherwise more than a hundred years ago, those southerners ran to this icy and snowy mountain to declare their sovereignty?"
