Traveling back to ancient times from the Western Han Dynasty
Chapter 30 Outside the City
After breakfast, Xuan wanted to purchase equipment in the tribe. Yan Fang wanted to see the interior of Youxiong, so he did not go to the big market outside and followed Xuan to Youxiong tribe.
Although there are many rare things in the market, after Xuan has some extra money, he still goes to the tribe to find craftsmen to forge better ones.
The Youxiong tribe covers a total area of only about 10 million square meters, which would be the size of a university in later times. But at this time, it was a large tribe that sheltered people from various Youxiong clans.
As we walked further in from the cabin in the forest, the houses became more densely packed together, and we could see more and more people. Xuan greeted a few people from time to time and introduced Yan Fang's background. Yan Fang also kept smiling, as he had gotten to know a lot of people through Xuan.
These people have very special appearances, some have one extra hand or one less hand, some are extremely tall or very short, and some even have strange parts growing on their bodies, which is called deformity.
If it weren't for the simple and honest look on their faces, Yan Fang would not have sensed any malice in them. At the same time, Yan Fang was calm and composed, and he came from the future, so he might have been scared or wanted to slay demons.
"Aren't they too thin in this form?"
When there was no one around, Yan Fang started to ask.
In fact, the physique of these people is similar to that of later generations, but the people Yan Fang had seen before, not to mention Xuan, even the Taoist Taishan Ji had made some achievements in fitness and were full of muscles.
The humans seen in the market generally follow the Hong Kong comics style, with Xuan and Taishan Ji being the exceptions. No matter who has seen Hong Kong comics full of muscles, where even girls are covered in muscles, it would feel strange to look at the normal world again, not to mention that these people in front of them have many strange parts on their bodies.
"People who don't have the aptitude to forge their bodies won't be able to use the power of their ancestors' bloodline to eliminate various abnormalities, so there's a high chance that they'll end up like this."
When Xuan heard this question, the smile he was giving to those people disappeared and he looked quite sad.
"That's it."
Yan Fang understood clearly that in this age where the light of the sun and the moon can contain inherited information, in this age where spiritual energy is abundant and mutation is the mainstream, if one cannot activate his bloodline and use qi and blood to maintain himself, he may be infected by foreign objects at any time, and if he does not die, he will mutate.
If you eat a leaf with the scent of a tiger demon, you might grow tiger ears, and if you step on a stone on the ground, you might become possessed by a demon.
Thinking of this, Yan Fang couldn't help but be thankful that he traveled through time after mastering the spiritual energy, otherwise the risk would have been too great.
"You have a pretty good relationship with them."
Yan Fang then sighed and said that this was not easy. He had seen a body builder hiding far away from those weird people before, and those weird-looking people were also quite scared when they saw the muscular body builder.
"Our family was well taken care of by them before."
When he said this, Xuan's voice was full of memories, and his face was sometimes smiling and sometimes depressed.
"As far as I can remember, the people in the city always treated our family badly. At that time, my mother didn't know how to do anything except fight. But she couldn't do anything, so she could only hold back her anger."
"If it weren't for their help, my mother wouldn't even be able to support herself, let alone raise me."
It is very difficult for humans to live away from group life, especially for mothers with children. Young children have several times more issues to take care of than adults.
"Hmm? I don't think Aunt Fubao should be someone who is excluded, nor the kind of person who can tolerate it."
In terms of the two days they spent together, although Fubao wanted to appear to be a gentle and kind mother in front of Xuan's friends, Yan Fang still saw that she actually had a very strong character and was definitely not the kind of woman who would hold back when being bullied.
"It's because of me and my position as the leader of the tribe."
Xuan did not shy away from this and explained the matter very simply.
Fu Baoshengxuan took twenty-five months, and that period of time was when the leader of the tribe was replaced for trial, so he would miss that trial.
Just like after Xuan became famous, Qing was brought to him by his mother for help. At that time, the election of the tribal leader was no longer a matter for one person. There was a large group of people associated with Fu Bao, and Qing's mother was one of them.
At that time, many people wanted Fubao to abort the child, including Xuan Na, who wanted to strive to become the father of the Youxiong clan's patriarch, and Wu Zhuke. In addition to the competition for the position of leader, they had more to consider.
Fubao has been pregnant for such a long time that her own strength has actually declined a lot. If the pregnancy period does not end, wouldn't Fubao, a great master of the tribe, be wasted in vain?
Moreover, there are so many demons and monsters these days. When Xuan was born, there was no revelation from the ancestors. Who knows what Xuan's situation is? But Fubao was determined to give birth to the child.
"Well, in this case, it's no wonder your family lives so far away."
When Yan Fang heard this story, he was surprised at Fubao's maternal love, but also understood the actions of the people in the tribe.
As for the matter of Fu Bao, Yan Fang had also heard a little about it when he was in Taishan Jina.
Yan Fang knew that, unlike Xuan who became famous after he grew up and now has the unreliable Ji Qing to rely on, Fu Bao has been a genius in the entire Youxiong tribe since she was a child. She is arrogant, strong, and even ambitious. In other words, the position of the chief is born for her. No one would have thought that she would give up the competition for the leader for an unborn child.
On the other hand, the forces that were optimistic about her must have taken sides long ago. If Fubao decided to give up, they would probably want to kill Fubao a thousand times. Even if Li Shimin was pushed by his subordinates to kill his brothers, imprison his father, and do things that violated moral principles!
"Well, my mother often told me that it was my family that owed them, and asked me not to bear any grudges against them."
Xuan also nodded. He could understand this and ignored his mother's last words: "If you feel resentful about this treatment, then resent me, because I let you be born."
He could sense that although his mother insisted on giving birth to him, she was somewhat worried that he would have a bad influence on the tribe when he was a child. Otherwise, she would not have been willing to survive on the edge of the tribe for so many years. Her only purpose was to protect the tribe and temper his character.
In addition, when his mother did not hide the fact, he, who was precocious, also knew that it would be impossible for him to hold an important position in the tribe. So in order to reassure his mother and the tribe, he had no ambition and would not deliberately show himself.
It wasn't until the last accident, and his aunt Pai Qing coming to live with him, that his life changed.
"Brother Xuan!"
Just then, a little girl with very pale skin, wearing linen clothes and with a tiny crack on her lip ran over and threw herself into Xuan's arms.
"Xiao Nan, is your mouth feeling better?"
Xuan touched Xiaonan's head and asked softly.
"Yeah, much better. It's all thanks to Brother Xuan."
Xiaonan's mouth was stretched open, as if she wanted to smile, but the cracks on her lips made the smile look slightly scary.
"Xiao Nan, you are so rude!"
A thin man with the same pale complexion came running from behind. He looked somewhat similar to the girl and seemed to be the girl's father. He was carrying a large basket on his back. He only ran a few steps and his face was covered with sweat.
"I don't want it, Brother Xuan's body is starting to soften, all right!"
Xiaonan threw herself into Xuan's arms and rubbed against him. Once the words came out, it made the rest of the people present feel a little embarrassed. The man exerted his potential and pulled the girl out.
"Is it because Xuan didn't maintain his muscles that he didn't want to be away from these people?"
Yan Fang looked at the scene thoughtfully. In the big market, he could see the human race's admiration for muscles and physical strength, but on the edge of the tribe, he could also see these marginalized people's fear of the satin-bodied people.
It wouldn't be surprising if Xuan maintained his figure because of these people. Of course, Yan Fang knew that even if Xuan maintained a relatively "weak" figure, his strength would probably still be among the top people.
"Leukemia? Cleft lip?"
Looking at the father and daughter, Yan Fang immediately noticed their condition. He also saw that the girl's cracked upper lip had been sewn up, but he didn't say anything and remained silent as before.
"Uncle Xuan, are you going to enter the city?"
Xuan suppressed his embarrassment, looked at the basket behind the man, and asked curiously.
Generally, there will be a fixed market in the city every half a day or so. At each market, there will be fixed people outside collecting goods and selling them.
It is not the fixed market time now, and Fengxuan is not a vendor, so why would he enter the city at this time?
Moreover, Xuan knew that people like them with abnormal physical appearance would have to go through a lot of trouble every time they entered the city. In addition to the examination, they also had to purchase temporary isolation protective gear, and they would be looked down upon by others after entering the city.
".....The scallops are not enough to pay for the medicine. I want to earn some more."
Feng Xuan was a little hesitant at first and didn't know how to say it, but under Xuan's gaze, he gritted his teeth and said it.
Their family originally lived in the city, but they were driven out after he and his daughter were diagnosed with this strange disease a few years ago.
"Well, I remember the money I gave you last time should be enough...Did Tong Jun embezzle money?"
Xuan was puzzled at first, but he was not a stupid man and quickly figured out the whole thing.
Tong Jun is a famous doctor in Youxiong tribe. It is said that he is a branch of Shennong clan and his family has been named Tong Jun for generations. However, the medical ethics of Tong Jun of this generation are questionable and his attitude towards people outside the city has always been not very good.
"He said that was the money for the treatment, and further care would require money."
Feng Xuan lowered his head and pursed his lips, his face showing a hint of anger and helplessness.
"Hey, why are they like this!"
Xuan sighed when he heard this and reached into his package to search.
Uncle Xuan had helped him before and was one of the few city dwellers who was kind to him. But now he has become like this. Those who say he is a disaster star are not wrong about him...
"It's already a great honor for us not to be killed by the tribe as demons. Why should we complain?"
Feng Xuan shook his head, not wanting Xuan to do anything out of line because of this.
