When he heard this, Lin Cheng had already vaguely guessed something, so he asked: "You mean, you only discovered later that the Spirit Tribe in Phoenix Mountain is different from the normal Spirit Tribe?"
"Yes."
Bai Ling nodded, sighed softly, and said: "After discovering this problem, I gradually guessed why I was kicked out by the Spirit Clan in Phoenix Mountain before, because the question I asked at that time was indeed theirs.
A taboo, and the most secret taboo!”
"For the Spirit Clan, the inheritance of bloodline has been adhering to a legacy since ancient times, that is, no matter what, the bloodline of the Spirit Clan must not be tarnished in any way. The reason why this legacy has not been mentioned much is because in the Spirit Clan,
During the heyday of the clan, there were no other alien races on Blue Star. This legacy was written down in books and regarded as historical records. Even many Elf tribes don’t quite understand why their ancestors would set such a legacy..."
"By comparing the Spirit Tribe in the Phoenix Mountain Underground City with other Spirit Tribe branches in the Royal City, I have realized that the population of the Spirit Tribe in Phoenix Mountain has been able to remain in an extremely stable state and form a growing trend.
It is possible that they have discovered a way to continue the spirit race’s bloodline in disguise, and that is to intermarry with foreign races!”
Hearing this, Lin Cheng's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Could you tell me that the person the Spiritual Race in Phoenix Mountain is marrying is a human being, right?!"
"……Yes."
Looking at the surprised Lin Cheng, Bai Ling couldn't help but nodded with a wry smile, "Although I guessed the secret of the Phoenix Mountain Spirit Tribe's steady population growth at that time, I didn't know who the alien race they were intermarrying with was.
Even because I didn’t know the existence of humans at all at the time, and I suspected that they had intermarryed with the Earth Demon Clan, that’s why they were reluctant to move in when all the Spirit Clan gathered in the royal city..."
"But based on my interactions with the spirit tribes in the Phoenix Mountain Underground City in the past six months, I don't particularly believe that they will intermarry with the earth demon tribe. Although the appearance and temperament of the spirit tribe there are different from the orthodox spirit tribe,
But one thing about them is almost the same as us, that is, their attitude towards others is very gentle. As long as it does not offend their taboos, they will hardly show any aggression! This fact can actually make it possible for them to intermarry with the Earth Demon Clan.
Sexuality is excluded, because everyone knows that the biggest characteristic of the Earth Demon Clan is that they are cruel and extremely aggressive, and their appearance is also very different from that of the Spirit Clan. Even if the two parties combine to produce offspring, their appearance will definitely inherit part of the Earth Clan.
The characteristics of the demon race cannot be completely inclined to the spirit race in general."
"But in any case, it is a fact that the Phoenix Mountain Spirit Clan intermarry with foreign races. Later, when I calmed down, I finally guessed why they refused to come to the royal city to gather with all the Spirit Clan, because according to the Spirit Clan's absolute belief in the ancestral precepts,
Obey, once the spirit clan royal family discovers that they have intermarryed with foreign races, they will definitely be exterminated immediately and completely erased from the spirit clan’s genealogy!”
"Isn't this too outrageous?"
When he heard this, Lin Cheng's mouth was wide open and his expression was speechless, "Sister, if I remember correctly, the Spiritual Tribe at that time had already reached the dilemma of running out of fuel and having no successors? In this case, right?
, will they still blindly abide by the teachings passed down by their ancestors, and refuse to let the blood of the Spirit Clan be tarnished despite the danger of annihilation?"
"Yes."
Unexpectedly, Bai Ling nodded immediately after hearing what he said, "You may not believe it now, but among the spirit tribes at that time, the majority of the spirit tribes held this idea! The teachings of our ancestors are as follows.
As if blended into their blood, everyone is trying their best to solve the problem of the spiritual race’s reproduction, but no one has thought about merging with foreign races..."
"I'm really..."
Seeing Bai Ling's serious expression, Lin Cheng really didn't know where to complain. He grew up in the 21st century with the great integration of ethnic groups. People like the Spiritual people would rather exterminate their clans than merge with other races for the sake of racial continuation.
He had never heard of Iron-headed Boy, let alone seen him. He couldn't believe that the person who made such a decision was actually an ancient race that was hundreds of years ahead of human beings in terms of technology and potential development. It gave him a weird feeling.
It was as incredible as hearing a fantasy.
Seeing Lin Cheng looking like he wanted to complain but worried about hurting his self-esteem, Bai Ling smiled lightly and said: "I know that this approach is very difficult to understand and extremely stupid for you humans, but you have to know that for
For the spirit race who lived in ancient times without any natural enemies, they believed that they were the masters of the world. From a human perspective, they were a group of 'gods'! For a race that considers itself the god of the world, maintaining
The purity of bloodline is what they should have, because apart from their own clan, they believe that no other race is qualified to touch the bloodline of their own clan. This idea is passed down from generation to generation. In the end, this idea is adopted by everyone.
It is so ingrained in the mind of an Eldar that there is almost no possibility of change."
Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Cheng spread his hands and said: "Then eventually some spirit tribe took this step, and judging from the results, if not for the sudden attack of the Earth Demon Clan, the choice of the Phoenix Mountain Spirit Tribe might have become the continuation of the spirit tribe's bloodline.
The only way out."
Shaking his head, Bai Ling said quietly: "You said it yourself, there are no ifs in this world, only results. It doesn't make any sense to make these assumptions now, right?"
"Too."
Hearing this, Lin Cheng smiled and suddenly asked: "What about you? Since you have been saying that maintaining the purity of blood is an ancestral precept that every Spirit Clan will strictly abide by, then when you learn that the Phoenix Mountain Spirit Clan is very
Maybe you have already married someone from another race, so what are you thinking about?"
Knowing that Lin Cheng would ask this, Bai Ling replied directly without thinking: "To be honest, the moment I realized this, I really thought about reporting it to my father immediately, but soon I
I calmed down. During the period when I was growing up, it was the period when the overall strength of the Spiritual Tribe was deteriorating in the face of internal and external troubles. Every day around me was filled with the sighs of the tribe and the tears of joy for the occasional new life, so in my opinion
Suddenly, the Eldar race is no longer the Eldar race that dominates Blue Star, but an Eldar race that urgently needs to solve the problem of reproduction and continue the bloodline of the ethnic group."
Hearing Bai Ling's words, Lin Cheng nodded slightly, "You mean, although you also know that the ancestral precepts do not allow the spirit tribe to marry foreigners, you care more about the spiritual tribe than the ancestral precepts.
