In addition to Xiao He, Chief Huang Jing also sent twelve other beautiful girls, specifying that they would be given to the great Jiuyuan priest and leader to share.
Yuan Zhan didn't say a word, and accepted everything. In front of everyone in the Huangjing tribe, he waved the thirteen girls and the four slaves brought by the chief's daughter to join the team of slaves that the Huangjing tribe compensated for them.
The chief's daughter was a little surprised and unwilling, but she couldn't get close to Yuanzhan, and a few savages with rough hands and feet came over and picked her up with her slaves and threw them into the slave team.
The people of the Huangjing tribe had hate and anger on their faces. This savage and savage savage actually threw their beautiful chief's daughter into the slave team!
However, Chief Huang Jing's face did not change at all. Seeing that Yuan Zhan did not reject his daughter and those young girls, he couldn't help but feel more at ease, and at the same time smiled complacently in his heart. No matter how powerful a man is, he can't escape the hurdle of beauty. Maybe all men will despise the women around them, but what these weak women can do will often surprise any man who despises them. It is to condone it.
As for Yuan Zhan's indifference, it seemed normal to him. As a qualified leader, no matter how beautiful he was, it was impossible for him to express himself at this moment.
As long as his daughter enters Jiuyuan, with his daughter's beauty and gentleness, it shouldn't be difficult to charm this young and strong leader.
Chief Huang Jing, who had developed many associations and made many follow-up plans, did not see that the leader who he thought was so beautiful had taken in all the single female slaves over the age of 14 from the three tribes after returning to Jiuyuan All of them were singled out, including his daughter and the twelve girls, and all the old and new fighters from Jiuyuan who had meritorious service and wanted to marry wives were picked one by one, and if they were chosen, they could be taken back.
Yan Mo originally wanted to stop this kind of behavior, it was too unfair and cruel to those girls.
But Yuan Zhan didn't listen to him this time, "If you win the battle, you must be rewarded. If we don't have slaves, we can only reward other properties or give them promotions. But I don't want to move many positions at the moment, and Dona, Heishui I haven't figured out how to arrange the fighters of the two clans, so giving them women is the best reward at this time."
Yan Mo understood his thoughts, but he had to consider Jiuyuan's overall harmony in the future, "If these girls are not willing, they will not be happy living with our soldiers in the future, and there will definitely be many problems at that time."
Hara Zhan looked at him strangely, "If these women come from tribes that respect mothers and women, arranging them in this way will indeed cause a lot of trouble, such as the Granma and Ah who joined us earlier Ukrainians. But these women from Morgan, Duofei and Huang Jing are different. They have long been accustomed to this kind of life of being forcibly paired. And we don’t let them be slaves, but wives. According to Jiuyuan According to the rules, anyone can only marry one wife, and when these women know this, as long as they have brains, they will only thank us for the arrangement."
Yan Mo came to his senses, he forgot that because of combat power, the status of women in this world is constantly declining, especially in the forces that already have a clear system and social class, where most women's status is inferior to that of men, and slaves are more important. very. Under the long-term oppressive life, these women have developed servility.
Yuan Zhan continued: "Of course, with so many people, there will definitely be some couples who get along badly in the future, but at that time it will be resolved separately. The most important thing now is to reward our soldiers, and let those women quickly calm down , when they have children, they will become Jiuyuan people if they are not from Jiuyuan.”
"Let's put the age at sixteen, fourteen or fifteen is too young." Yan Mo was persuaded by Yuan Zhan.
Yuan Zhan shook his head, "Fourteen is not too young to have children. In the past, there were people who gave birth at the age of eleven or twelve. Well, don't stare at me. This time is a special case. When the time comes, everyone who is sixteen Girls under the age of 10 have the right to refuse, so it’s okay, right?”
Yan Mo poked him helplessly to vent his anger, "After a long time, you will know why I must have both men and women over the age of sixteen to get married. Premature mating and childbirth are also one of the main reasons that affect life expectancy. In addition, the age is too young. Not to mention that it is easy to get pregnant, even if you are pregnant, you may have a miscarriage, and the risk of giving birth is also high, which is not good for the mother or the child."
He really wanted to remind Yuan Zhan to follow the rules, but even the law can be amended according to the actual situation and the wishes of the people, not to mention the rules they drafted.
Yuan Zhan nodded cautiously, expressing that he remembered it. After all, those women who were sent as compensation were not from Jiuyuan, so it would be good if he didn't treat them as slaves, how could he think so much about them, but if they were from Jiuyuan himself, it would be different.
This matter is not a trivial matter in the tribe, so Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan spent a day watching the whole process of the soldiers choosing their wives together.
In order to prevent the fighters from being too picky, it is stipulated that every time it is twenty to twenty, the initiative is in the hands of Jiuyuan fighters, but they only have one chance to choose. Only after all the fighters who want to pick wives have been picked can they choose again.
If there are several people who are interested in one at the same time, then ask the woman for her opinion and see who she wants to be with.
If the selected woman is unwilling, Jiuyuan Warrior will not force her, and he will have the opportunity to enter the next round of selection.
Yan Mochu thought that there must not be many Jiuyuan warriors willing to participate in such a crude and rude way of picking wives, but he did not expect that when he and Yuan Zhan arrived at the outer city square, they would see a crowd of warriors who came to pick wives. Whispering to each other, all of them were extremely excited.
Even soldiers who don't want to choose wives will all watch the fun as long as they have free time.
It can be said that almost all the idle people in the tribe today came.
Heishui, Dona, and a few other warrior leaders who had time to spare also basically arrived. The days ahead were too tense, and it was hard to have such a relaxing day, and none of us wanted to miss it.
Heishui Yingshi even stretched his neck to look at the group of women, and said in his mouth: "I heard that the last few women sent by the Huangjing tribe are very beautiful? The other one is their chief's daughter?"
Yuan Zhan squinted at him, "Do you want it?"
Heishui Yingshi rubbed his beard stubble, and said lewdly: "Let me see if it looks good first. The chest and butt are not too big."
Narong and Hao, the patriarchs of Dona, have similar tastes and similar preferences. They get together to comment on those women, but they all have their own wives and children. It is just fun to see those women who are sent to be slaves .
Mr. Curse Witch and Ermeng hit each other very well, and La Moling, who had a tendency to become talkative after leaving Yincheng, made the three of them laugh the loudest.
Mosquito and Dashan sat on the edge and whispered something. They were rescued early in the morning and were seriously injured. After three months of recuperation, they could finally get up and walk. Dashan was punished with 20 lashes for ignoring his duty to save others. He was so busy with so many matters in the camp that he almost didn't even have time to take care of the mosquitoes. He could relax a little until the war was over and the compensation from the two tribes had arrived and been counted and put into storage.
The other warrior leaders were also joking with each other with smiles on their faces, and even the Snake People were watching happily.
Lord Jiufeng was not interested in the pairing of two-legged monsters at all, so he went to play with the Ironback Dragon's family by himself.
Ziming from the Da'ao tribe and Shi Jiusheng, a slave prince from Heitucheng, could only hang out with other fighters in the audience to watch the excitement because of their lack of qualifications. But they didn't feel much dissatisfaction with Ding Ning, Ding Fei, Da Da and Xiao Hei Wa, who were on vacation. Be comfortable so they can be a little more relaxed and happy.
Cao Ding did not come to watch because of his sister Cao Cong. The two of them and Ding Ning gathered together to watch the excitement. The original sculpture was not there, because there were many injuries and illnesses in the tribe, and there were not enough herbs and medicine stones, so he had to lead a team to search for them.
Probably because of the presence of Kusamachi, the wives of the leaders all moved closer to this side. The women in their stands were much more picky than the men.
The women were terrified by the onlookers. Before they were brought to the square, they had heard the reason given by the person in charge, but many women didn't believe it when they heard that they didn't need to be slaves.
This time it was Wu Chen and Ye Xing who were in charge of this matter. The two teenagers walked up to the first-floor high platform in front of everyone's eyes. They first saluted Yuan Zhan, Yan Mo and others sitting on the second-floor high platform, and then walked to the second floor. The front of the high platform.
Wu Chen cleared his throat, raised a small bone trumpet, first sang and praised the greatness of the ancestor gods, the mountain god Jiufeng, and the curse ancestors, and then emphasized the mercy and generosity of their priests and leaders . In the end, he recited all the main rules of Jiuyuan again, and after making sure everyone heard it, he looked at Ye Xing.
Ye Xing took the trumpet and began to introduce the precautions for this pairing, focusing on comforting those women, explaining the benefits of pairing to them, and emphasizing that they are not assigned to others as slaves, but as wives of soldiers. If they agree to form a contract with each other, they will change from slavery to official residents of Jiuyuan.
There was silence under the high platform. Ye Xing's explanation made all the flustered women widen their eyes. Is what this young man said true? They really don't need to be slaves? And without having to sleep with a lot of men and keep having babies for them
As for whether there is one man or several women who fancy themselves, they don't care now, what they care about is what Ye Xing said, as long as Jiuyuan warriors take a fancy to them, they can get rid of their slave status and become Jiuyuan people.
Many women regret that they did not believe the steward's words, and did not dress up properly, which made them jealous of those women who believed the steward's words. Look at those women, how clean their faces are, and even their hair is arranged.
The most beautiful of these women was undoubtedly Huang He, who was served by four slaves, and the other twelve girls were also in good condition. The manager of Jiuyuan was not harsh to them, and they did not abuse or bully them on the road. They were lucky enough to ride a bone bird once, and they had a good rest for two days after arriving in Jiuyuan. say what.
Most of the women on the selection stage were picked out by the soldiers, and very few refused.
People are different, and everyone's performance is also different. In addition, there are so many people watching. Many fighters who are usually very powerful and brave are so nervous that they are on the same stage. Naturally, these men and women also made a lot of jokes.
At the beginning, the first batch of women who came on stage were all trembling like leaves in the cold wind of early winter, and they almost hugged each other to encourage each other.
And the first batch of soldiers who came to power were not much better, they didn't even dare to look at those women more. The more booing people in the audience, the more embarrassed they were to see clearly, but those women had smeared their faces and all exposed parts with mud because of their past experience, and many of them couldn't even see their facial features clearly.
The hosts Wu Chen and Ye Xing had no choice but to ask for water to wash the women's faces.
As a result, because of fear and shame, none of those women were willing to take the initiative to wash their faces.
In the end, a soldier didn't know whether he was getting impatient or couldn't stand the laughter from the audience, so he rushed over to pick up a woman and ran off the stage.
The spectators were silent for a while, and then roared with laughter, whistles, applause, and strange shouts one after another.
Wu Chen and Ye Xing saw that they were a couple, and hurriedly chased after the soldier and shouted: "Hey! Brother! I have chosen to record, come and write your names, and you will be husband and wife from now on! Don't run away!"
The woman who was carried away by the soldier was also taken aback by him, and it took a long time before she remembered to scream.
"Hahaha!" The crowd watching the excitement laughed even harder.
If there is one, there will be two. With the first one to eat crabs, the people behind will also go all out. The twenty women who came out of the first batch were all selected inexplicably.
Ye Xing chased them with a loudspeaker and asked: "Have you seen clearly? You picked them without washing your face? Don't regret it! Hey! Don't run away, come here and report your names!"
Wu Chen grabbed the loudspeaker and yelled at the crowd: "Sa Yu! Come out! If you dare to be lazy and don't help, I will beat you to death in a martial arts competition tomorrow!"
Before the Sayu came out, the voice came first: "I want to choose a wife, don't bother me!"
Yuan Zhan patted the handrail on the stage and laughed, "Stinky boy, how old do you want a woman?" Then he pointed to the selection stage and said to his priest, "Believe it or not, there are at least eighteen pairs among the twenty pairs." Didn't you see what each other looked like?"
Yan Mo rubbed his forehead with one hand, his expression was horrific, seeing with his own eyes three personal disciples turned the well-behaved spouse meeting into a nonsensical comedy, he felt ashamed to face others.
Accompanied by bursts of laughter, batch after batch of women came up and down, and at noon, it was finally the turn of a dozen yellow crystal girls headed by Huang He.
When Huang He first knew that she, like those slaves, would also be sent to the square for selection by those barbarians, she was extremely shocked and distressed.
The old slave who had been serving her all the time comforted her, saying that because she was too beautiful and had an unusual status, the leader would not be able to monopolize her, so she was allowed to participate in the selection together.
The old slave also vowed with absolute certainty that after seeing her beauty and knowing her identity, the leaders of Jiuyuan and other ordinary soldiers would not dare to rob the leader, so she might just show her face in the end. , will be taken back by the young leader.
After thinking about it, Huang He felt that what the old slave said was reasonable, which made her want to dress herself up well. For this reason, she became the most eye-catching one among the women in childbearing period who were waiting to be selected.
And the development of things afterwards was exactly as the old slave said, when she was on the selection stage, every soldier who saw her salivated at her, but in the end no one chose her.
Huang He looked up at the high platform not far away, the young, strong, powerful, manly leader who was not too handsome was sitting there, the leader's gaze was just looking at her, Huang He's gaze matched The other party faced each other, their hearts suddenly bumped a few times like a deer, and their faces blushed uncontrollably.
The leader looked at her with an indescribable tenderness and pampering in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, obviously in a good mood.
Huang He thought with embarrassment and joy that what the old slave said was right, the chief of Jiuyuan really liked her.
On the high platform, Yuan Zhan pretended to put his hand on the armrest. In fact, he had already crossed the boundary and touched the armrest next door. Because there was no gap between the left and right armrests of the two chairs, others could not see anything unusual at first glance.
Only the person involved, Yan Mo, glanced at the leader angrily.
Yuan Zhan, who had won a big battle, held the hand of his priest, and was in a very good mood watching all the farces below. Occasionally, he would comment on Yan Mo when he saw a girl who was more pleasing to the eye.
Just after evaluating one, he suddenly asked, "Do you like any of them? Do you want to pick one?"
Yan Mo tilted his head, "Are you serious?"
Someone laughed shamelessly, "Seriously, after you have chosen, I will throw her into Qingyuan Lake to feed the fish."
"Pfft!" Heishui Yingshi, who was eavesdropping beside him, laughed, "Don't throw it, just give it to me. It's definitely not bad for Mo Wu to fancy it."
The other Jiuyuan leaders were laughing secretly when they heard it. Everyone knew the relationship between Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo. Their leader looked like that kind of man with strong desires, but he insisted on guarding the priest, even the priest was so old. They didn't find anyone else either. If the priest really chose a girl to serve him, their leader would definitely go crazy.
Patriarch Narong heard the laughter and looked over. He didn't know the relationship between Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo, so he discussed with Yuan Zhan half-jokingly: "My lord, other than Chief Huang Jing's daughter, do you have any other girls who came up this time?" fancy?"
Yuan Zhan leaned on the stone chair and lazily replied: "Including Chief Huang Jing's daughter, you can pick whoever you like, but to be fair, all leaders can only pick one each."
Narong laughed loudly and shook his hands again and again, "I don't need it. I'm just worried about the bachelors below me who don't have women. Several of them want women but are too embarrassed to speak up. They don't even dare to participate in this selection. I I thought that if no one dares to take these women, and you, the leader, are not interested, you might as well leave them to me."
Just as Yuan Zhan was about to nod his head, Heishui Yingshi smiled strangely, and Jie Dona's old man said: "You guys are so embarrassed, they are afraid that if they choose, they will not be able to keep those women. Warriors who combine bears and beasts have to share their women with their own bears, and women who are not from the Dona tribe generally dare not combine with Dona warriors."
Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo listened to the Dona tribe mentioning this matter to them. Yan Mo was simply curious that the mating of bear beasts and women can also give birth to women. Yuan Zhan waved his hands casually, "These women sent Originally, they were meant to be slaves, but now the Dona warriors are willing to marry them, why don’t they want to? If they really don’t want to, then keep them as coolies.”
Patriarch Na Rong had Yuan Zhan's words, and immediately sent a message to Dona warriors.
Some Dona fighters were moved. Seeing that the most beautiful girls on the stage were all left behind, and the original war leader, the priest and other leaders had no intention of wanting them, a few bachelors who really didn't want to be single anymore boldly ran away up.
