"This is what you exchanged? Twenty steel coins? She doesn't look worth two horses. " the old chief asked his son, but more reproachfully.

He used a picky gaze to size up Bai Xiaosjing's nonexistent hand, then his line of sight fell onto her thin shoulders, as well as her equally thin body.

This hand must have never been used for farming, this shoulder must not be able to pick up anything heavy, so what was so good about this woman?

The old chief was very angry. He could not understand why his son would spend so much money to buy a woman whose shoulders he could not pick up or whose hands he could not carry. In addition —

His gaze fell upon Bai Xiaosjing's well-shaped chest and buttocks, which were not considered well-developed.

According to tribal aesthetics, they like women with big breasts and big bottoms. Because a person with a large chest could nurture his descendants, while a person with a large buttock could nurture their offspring. "Those two are the most basic duties of a woman and the key to maintaining the development of the entire tribe.

However, he couldn't find any good points from Bai Xiaosjing.

Therefore, the old chief was extremely angry.

In contrast to his anger and confusion, the youngsters in the group were stunned by the beautiful person in front of them. They raised their torches high and surrounded her. Due to the erosion of the wind and rain, most of the tribal women were as rough and cracked as the men. Therefore, these people had never seen such white and tender skin before.

"Humph!" It looks like a useless paper man. " The old chief coldly snorted.

"Qiu is protecting Bai Xiaosheng behind him." This is my woman, it is enough for her to have me. " His back was straight, like a real man.

He was a man, of course, because he already had someone he needed to protect.

According to tribal customs, a boy could only be considered an adult if he took a wife.

"It's a burden and a sense of responsibility." The chief looked at his son with relief. He knew what was different about him. But after experiencing sixty years of trials, how could he be so easily fooled?

Let me see if your burden and determination are like paper, breaking when you meet water.

the old chief thought.

"You used all the money you earned last season to buy such a useless woman. The Horde now has neither bullets nor bows, so how are we going to deal with the fall hunt? "What's the tax?" the old chief asked sharply.

A real man has to be responsible, to understand his obligations, to know the responsibilities he has to bear. Moreover, these resolutions and burdens must be as broad as the grasslands and as hard as steel. It's not as simple as sleeping with a woman.

"Those are just worldly possessions. I will take everything back, Father." Qiu's answer surprised the old chief.

In the old chief's memory, he had always been an obedient child.

The father and son duo then began to argue.

But at this moment, the shrill cry of a woman came from a corner of the tribe. A thin, old woman with a bag stumbled out.

Bai Xiaosjing was horrified to discover that the thin and frail child was rapidly expanding.

"It's Su Ling Feng! That child is hopeless!" Autumn said with a gloomy face. This time, even the experienced and knowledgeable chief's expression changed.

Several men came forward and held the woman down and held the baby high.

At this point, the baby's skin had already expanded to the limit and could burst at any time. But he was still alive. The men threw him into the flames, and the flames quickly consumed the young body.

"The mother of the baby knelt on the ground and cried even louder." Feng Er, Feng Er, I've let you down. I will help you check every day, but after all these days of raiding, I feel really tired. She actually forgot to check, just like that she fell asleep … I'm sorry. "

The sound of repentance came from far away in the wind, but it was already meaningless.

When the baby's skin finally split open, Bai Xiaoshen witnessed a horrifying sight that she had never seen before, even in her worst nightmares.

Countless squirming maggots were struggling under the child's skin, fat and chubby, eating human flesh and blood for food. After a struggle, he and the child were incinerated into the flames.

Bai Xiaosjing could only feel her mind turning blank. There wasn't enough time to do anything, as Qiu had already turned around and hugged her tightly. He let his tears fall on her shoulders. " It's already the tenth child, this year the tenth child to be harmed by the wind scurry. "

She could feel his sadness, and the terror gripped her heart and hugged him.

Such a tribe, such a man. What else could she ask for?

"..."

Phlebotomus albopictus is one of the fiercest parasites on the prairie. The larvae float with the wind, but when they enter the human body, they quickly shed their tails and invade the skin to become a child worm.

After invading the host, it only takes 24 hours to grow into an adult, and then spawn and reproduce. A female spawns about 10,000 eggs per day. When the host finally cannot stand them and explodes, it will spread more insects, creating a vicious circle of mass spread.

In the autumn there was at least one tribe that had been destroyed by the hands of the Whitewind Scratch.

"In a tribe of a hundred people, there are only five children under the age of ten. Father, we need children. We need hope. The future of the tribe cannot be bought back, no matter how much money we have. " Qiu's words were neither an argument nor a request. It was like stating a given fact. Because they need all the children to buy a woman and marry her. It was all because the tribe lacked children.

Although his tone was calm, anyone who was familiar with him knew that this decision couldn't be changed.

"I don't want to hear your bullshit. I only know that if the Autumn Hunt fails, we will not receive any taxes, and the fury of the Lord will take everyone's lives." The chief's tone was filled with the stubborn stubbornness of an old man.

"Since you insist, then go earn enough steel coins to support your woman. If you want to negotiate with me, you must first become a person with a sense of responsibility. I will regard this as a test of your maturity. "

The coming of age ceremony was a test that every member of the tribe had to undergo. Only by passing this test could one become a brave warrior and enjoy the treatment of an adult.

To get married and have children.

"I will, Father." Qiu turned around to face Bai Xiaosjing before kneeling down on one leg. It is said that the men in the big cities earn more and better for their women, but I have nothing. That's why I, you, will hunt down a Moon Shadow Beast and offer its fur to you. That's why I'm begging you to live with me for the rest of my life. "

The old chief spat, "Playboy." Then he planned to leave.

Faced with such a direct request, Bai Xiaosheng was at a loss. She didn't know how to deal with it.

She looked around before glancing at her thin clothes. Due to the weather, everyone was wearing thick leather clothing, so she knew what Qiu Yun was planning. Faced with such a request, what else could she say? As a result, he weakly said, "You have to sleep well before you have the strength to hunt."

She held out her hands to Cho, and he held them tightly in surprise.

However, in the next moment, something fell into Qiu's hands. This cold, hard and smooth metal object made him doubt his sense of touch.

This is?
