Chapter 12 The Southern Barbarians

The Southern Xinjiang Wu League is actually a very broad term. It is located on the border of Yundian Province, which is further south than Shuliang Province. It is full of high mountains and swamps, and there are thousands of miles of swamps and mountains everywhere.

To say that the Southern Xinjiang Witch League is a country, it is better to say that it is a loose tribal alliance, mainly composed of tribes that believe in the witch god.

If you ask how big the Southern Xinjiang Umbrella Union is, not only Dahua can't tell, but even the Umbrella Union itself can't tell.

Due to the chaotic management, there are so many tribes, large and small, and it is very inconvenient to communicate with each other. The top leaders of the Umbrella League themselves do not even know which tribes are their members.

Ummeng residents and Chinese people generally look the same, but some details are quite different.

The horns on the head of the black boy are one of a kind. Legend has it that there are also ones with double pupils, tails, or scales on the body. Chaitino was shocked when he first heard about it. Such a weird appearance can still be considered human.

?

The monsters are pretty much the same!

But when I saw it today, it wasn't as weird as I thought. To be honest, it felt a little cute.

Chaitino took a closer look at the black boy. Although he was a little dirty, his eyes were full of intelligence. He just wanted to buy him a friend, so it would be good for him to be a book boy.

"Boy, you can leave me if you want, but you will have to apply for slavery. If you want to be free again, it will take ten years."

Chaitino said seriously.

The slave status cannot be changed for the first ten years. After the ten years, if the master is kind, he can be released and his freedom can be restored.

"Um!"

The black boy nodded vigorously. He was almost starving to death. Freedom is not as important as having a full meal.

"Yalang, I still want to trouble you with this matter. You can tell me how much it will cost."

Ren Yazi thought for a moment and stretched out two fingers:

"Since the head of the case has said it, I will definitely help you with this. The government will give you 2 taels of silver to register as a slave. Just give me 2 taels."

"In addition, you have to write me a certificate to prove that I was not the one who abducted the black boy."

"You still need to go with the black boy, otherwise it will be difficult to get the slave status."

Chaitino naturally complied with the request, but he was given an extra tael of money. Although money was tight, the necessary personnel should not be spared. This is the foundation of life.

The county government had a relevant stall in Luoma City, and with Chai Tiannuo, who was in full swing these days, coming forward, the matter was done quickly.

After giving Ren Yazi a few words about the woman, Chai Tiannuo hurried back with Hei Xiaozi.

Back at the academy, Chaitino did not go to the main house, but rushed into the concierge.

"Uncle Cao, I'm short of money. Do you have anything?"

Cao Fu, who was drinking, said nothing, turned around and took out a cloth bag from the bedside, and handed it to Chai Tiannuo without asking:

"Take it!"

For the lonely Cao Fu, Chai Tiannuo was definitely a close disciple. He could take whatever he wanted. Even Chai Tiannuo's horizontal sword was given to him by him.

Chai Tiannuo grinned and turned around to leave. There were five taels of silver in the cloth bag, and there was still three taels left.

"... Tiannuo, where did you buy this black guy? Isn't this too dark?"

Mr. Ruo Lin was stunned. It was the first time in decades that he had seen such a dark person.

Mrs. Liu was also shocked. She looked at her fair eldest son and then at her dark boy. She couldn't help but shake her head. The difference between the master and servant was so great that they became a black and white match.

Chai Tiannuo handed the preserved fruit to Yu Zhen'er and asked her to eat it, and then said what he thought. Mr. Ruolin and Mrs. Liu nodded repeatedly and said that Chai Tiannuo was sensible.

Mrs. Liu took out another five taels of silver from the house and handed it to him, and gave him a few whispering instructions. Yuzhen'er jumped up and down, trying to avoid talking to herself. She didn't take herself seriously!

Chai Tiannuo strode out of the academy. After a second thought, he poked his head through the window into the concierge and asked Cao Fu with a smile:

"Uncle Cao, we are all living together, why don't we find a good woman to live with?"

"Grandpa Cao has talked about it many times."

Cao Fu was stunned. He never expected that Chai Tiannuo would ask such a question.

Cao Fu raised his head and drank a large gulp of cut-throat liquor. Cao Fu shook his head:

"My eldest brother is full of children, and the heirs have already spread out. The inheritance of the incense of the Cao family will not be a problem. With his eldest son here, I will have a much easier time this time."

"I joined the army at the age of seventeen and have been fighting for nearly twenty years. I can't find a good woman at my age. My desire to have a family has long since faded away."

After downing the whole bottle of strong wine in one gulp, Cao Fu's face turned red and his heart stopped beating. His eyes became brighter and brighter, like two sharp knives!

"The wild geese fly high in the dark moon, and the Chan Yu flees at night; when he tries to chase the Qingqi away, the heavy snow covers his bow and sword!"

With a "bang" sound, Cao Fu slammed the window shut, causing Chai Tiannuo to take a breath. He raised his hand and touched it, and there was a big bump on his forehead.

Chai Tiannuo sighed as he walked, how could a tough guy like Uncle Cao, who was capable of both literary and military skills and experienced many hardships, not make people admire him?

If such a good man doesn't even have a close and warm person, then God is really bad.

Towards evening, Chai Tiannuo walked into Ruolin Academy with Dou Zhilian carrying large and small bags.

After hearing the commotion, Mr. Ruolin and Mrs. Liu came to the door with smiles and looked at Dou Zhilian and nodded:

"That's right. At first glance, he looks like someone who can live a good life."

"Uncle Cao, pick up the things. I'm very tired from this journey!"

"Auntie, come in and sit down. You will live here from now on."

Chai Tiannuo stuffed all the big and small bags into Cao Fu's arms, and introduced the reserved Dou Zhilian into the concierge with a smile.

Cao Fu, who had always been calm, was immediately confused. What does this mean?

Chai Tiannuo did not hide anything, and directly told Dou Zhilian's origins and his thoughts. The confused Cao Fu was even more confused, and his mind could not turn around.

His disciple bought himself a daughter-in-law without saying a word. This is too outrageous!

"Cao Fu, this is Tiannuo's wish, and it is also our wish."

Mr. Ruolin saw that Cao Fu wanted to refuse, so he took over the conversation:

"You took over Mr. Cao's job and have been the concierge of Ruolin Academy for several years. You owe a lot to Tian Nuo for becoming a martial arts scholar!"

"We are not a family, we are better than a family."

"After all, living alone is too hard. You also know Dou Zhilian's origins. She is a hard-working person. If you marry her and live a good life, Mr. Cao and we will have less to worry about."

After saying that, Mr. Ruolin took Mrs. Liu and Chai Tiannuo out of the concierge and closed the door tightly.

It took a long time for Cao Fu, who was holding the big and small bags, to react. He looked at Dou Zhilian, who was blushing and had nowhere to put his hands and feet, and smiled bitterly:

"What the hell is this!"

When Dou Zhilian heard this, her face turned pale and her voice trembled as she said:

"You, you don't want me?"

After saying that, tears welled up in her eyes. The ordeal for more than half a year was like hell. She really wanted to have a family.

Shaking his head, Cao Fu put the package on the table, strode to Dou Zhilian's side, hesitated for a moment, and decisively picked up the thin daughter's hands:

"How could it be!"

"If you don't mind that I am a warrior, then I will marry you and live with you. I dare not say anything else. I will definitely have no worries about food and clothing."

"I will pamper you in this life and never let you suffer any injustice!"

"Zhilian, are you willing to marry me?"
