Liang Yu'er hugged the quilt and slept soundly.

Murong Bai turned his eyes away and did not look at Liang Yu'er's slightly open collar because she was restless in her sleep.

He gently pushed Liang Yu'er away from him, but within a few minutes of pushing away, Liang Yu'er came towards Murong Bai again.

She turned around and hugged Murong Bai's arm.

Everything he touched was soft. Murong Bai didn't even dare to breathe loudly, and his face looked a little unnatural.

"Liang Yu'er."

Murong Bai said.

Liang Yu'er seemed to be fast asleep, but hummed a few times in her sleep, which was a response to Murong Bai.

"Liang Yu'er."

Murong Bai shouted again.

This sound was a bit loud, and Liang Yu'er moved her head slightly, as if she was about to wake up. However, Murong Bai suddenly hugged Liang Yu'er with quick eyes and hands, and his palm touched Liang Yu'er's back as if it was the first time he touched something.

"It's okay, go to sleep."

Murong Bai said softly.

This time, maybe because Liang Yu'er was by his side, or maybe because Murong Bai was too tired, he had a rare good dream.

The next day, Murong Bai didn't open his eyes until Liang Yu'er woke up.

He was awakened by Liang Yuer's scream.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't cross this line?"

Liang Yu'er pointed at the clothes Murong Bai took off and said, her eyes full of disbelief.

I didn’t expect Murong Bai to be such a person!

Murong Bai opened his eyes in a daze and saw Liang Yu'er's clothes about to be thrown in his face.

He said: "I didn't just roll to you by myself. Liang Yu'er, do you want to see which side of the bed we are on?"

Only then did Liang Yu'er think of looking at the bed. She was shocked to see that she was actually lying on Murong Bai's side!

Liang Yuer's face turned red and she said to Murong Bai.

"Then why didn't you wake me up then? You just watched me sleep like this?!"

Murong Bai's face was full of helplessness.

"I called you, but you didn't wake up."

Liang Yu'er took her clothes back and put them on her body casually.

"Humph."

She snorted coldly, as if she didn't care about the matter, but only if she ignored Liang Yuer's red, cherry-like ears.

Liang Yu'er and Murong Bai had just finished packing when they heard the man's deliberately aggravated footsteps.

The man who came this time was the same man who sent them here last night. When he saw Liang Yu'er getting up, he smiled and said to her.

"You're awake, little girl. Thank you for the candy. My nephew likes it very much."

Murong Bai didn't quite believe what Liang Yu'er said yesterday, so he saw the man coming and asked him.

"Is this a walking marriage here?"

The man glanced at Murong Bai warily and said.

"Yeah, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, the girls in our tribe do not marry with outsiders. They are not animals, and you are not allowed to waste them!"

Liang Yu'er spoke to Murong Bai in accelerated Beijing dialect.

"I just said it, but you still don't believe it."

That man's language was not very good and he could only understand what he said very slowly. It was difficult to understand someone like Liang Yu'er who spoke very fast.

He asked Liang Yuer confused.

"What are you muttering about?"

Liang Yu'er said: "Nothing, nothing. Why don't you people like men from foreign races?"

The man had a good impression of Liang Yu'er and said when Liang Yu'er asked him.

"We hate foreigners. They treat our women as slaves. When they saw our leader, they actually asked why our leader was a woman! They are simply too abominable and have no respect for Mother Earth."

After hearing the man say such words, Murong Bai believed that what Liang Yu'er said was true.

Just then, another man came in.

He said a few words in local dialect next to the man, and then the man stepped forward and pulled Murong Bai.

"The leader said, let us take you there."

When he saw Liang Yu'er, it seemed that he couldn't bear to see a woman wither.

"It would be fine if you weren't with him. If you weren't with him, you would be very happy in our village. But the women outside are just like fish jumping on the chopping board."

Liang Yuer asked: "What do you mean?"

"A man who insists on coming to save them. I don't know why someone insists on being a slave."

Liang Yu'er didn't know what to say for a moment, and after a while she just said.

"you're right."

After crossing the lake, Liang Yuer and Murong Bai came to a large village.

This house is made of bamboo. It’s hard to believe that there are people who use bamboo to build houses in this place.

Opposite the house, there is another huge altar with several braziers on it, and a fire is burning.

Their leader was a woman over seventy years old, wearing a necklace made of beads made from the skulls of various beasts.

Next to the woman, there was a cow bone mask.

"Is this someone from outside?"

The leader asked the people around him.

The woman next to me said.

"Yes, this man followed this woman. They almost took away the little man."

The woman, or rather the leader's daughter, said to the leader respectfully.

"But they didn't succeed, and they didn't harm other people in our village."

"If they harm people in our village, that's fine."

The leader said, and then said to a man next to him.

"Let them be burned at the stake, and let the bright red flames burn away the dirt on their bodies. Remember to feed this woman a glass of wine. Poor woman, she harmed herself because of a man."

Liang Yu'er couldn't understand what they said, so she could only ask for help from the men around her.

"What were they talking about?"

"I want to give you a glass of wine so that you can die painlessly."

said the man.

"Because you were harmed by this man, we will not be too harsh on you. Poor woman, I hope you can live in our village in your next life."

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone brought Liang Yu'er a cup of tea.

Liang Yu'er didn't even need to smell it to feel the smell of poison inside.

"Wait a minute, Chief!"

Liang Yuer imitated their words.

"You know our language, are you one of our tribesmen?"

The leader was a little shocked when he heard Liang Yuer's words.

She walked out of the house and looked at Liang Yu'er who was being suppressed.

"I am not one of your villagers, but I believe that we are all tribesmen living in the same country."

"Stop talking nonsense here!"

A woman in her twenties said.

"You women from other places only know how to sacrifice your souls for men and don't cherish your freedom at all. Do people like you deserve to be women? This is simply an embarrassment to us women!"
