The practice of internal strength went very smoothly, and Zhou Baoer achieved results just by calming down a little. At this time, a warm current rises from the lower Dantian and travels throughout the body according to a fixed trajectory.
Chen Chen's smile gradually disappeared as he watched this scene from a distance.
He knew that his precious apprentice was a genius, but he didn't know that his precious apprentice was such a genius. Without even taking a breath, the results were already achieved.
Well, that’s okay, there have been people like this in history, and it’s not surprising at all. It's just that the qualifications of warriors in recent years have been poor, so the contrast is a little obvious.
——
After formally learning the internal skills and mental methods, Zhou Baoer's schoolwork became much more relaxed. Her main purpose now is to accumulate energy in her body and learn basic attack methods.
Chen Chen was very relieved about this apprentice and would let her go after she truly learned it. He just said: "If you encounter any problem, come to Master and Master will give you the answer."
Zhou Baoer obediently agreed and took all the time to practice. Sometimes her nephews would come and ask her if they had any questions, and she would calm down and answer them one by one.
She knew that in the hearts of these people, Master Chen Chen was really terrible. Rather than fearfully asking their grandfather, it would be better to come directly to her.
After some time, Zhou Baoer discovered something quite bad. Since the internal force was generated in the body, the fields in the portable space have grown faster. In just a few days, ten acres of land appeared, which is simply disappointing.
She has a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Such a good apprentice cannot just let it gather dust. What must he grow? However, even though people from nearby villages are helping day after day, there are still not enough manpower.
Where can I find someone to help with farming? Waiting online, quite urgent.
——
In the distant mountain road, the person in charge of the caravan and Cui Niang asked quietly after paying for their goods.
"Cui Niang, I heard that you are going to start an uprising? Is this happening?"
Suddenly hearing this, Cuiniang was stunned. After a long time, she asked with an ugly expression.
"Where did you hear that? There is no such thing."
The person in charge of the caravan looked left and right, and said cautiously: "Many people said so."
Cui Niang lowered her face and said angrily.
"I told you, there is no such thing."
The leader of the caravan nodded and continued.
"Then let your boss calm down and stop causing big troubles. If you weren't all women here, the imperial army would be here right now."
Cuiniang, as the logistics manager in charge of money, naturally knows what the so-called big events are.
Over the years, the big boss sent people to integrate all the nearby villages and became the uncrowned king of this area.
Even if some of the bandits survived, they were cut to pieces by the civilians they harmed, leaving no one behind.
Some of the captives controlled by the bandits left the mountain area, but many more stayed. Especially the women, one more than the next, all unwilling to leave.
Over time, this place became known as the daughter country. After all, there are very few men here, and the total number of them is less than a fraction of the number of women.
Daughter's country, daughter's country. Since the word "guo" is included, it violates the taboo of the court. Could it be that the way of the world is the king's land? Who is so bold as to actually establish a country and become king in the hinterland of the Central Plains
When Cui Niang found out about this, of course she was shocked. Even if these daughters' families practice day after day, they will not be worse than the imperial army.
However, after such a long time, even if women come to seek refuge every once in a while, their number is only about 10,000. It was very few compared to the imperial army and was unable to fight against it.
When someone was sent to inquire, all the women breathed a sigh of relief. Although their matter was reported, the people in the court did not take it seriously. He had a very contemptuous view of what women could do, and then immediately forgot about it.
Ever since the reputation of the Daughter's Kingdom spread, a very strange phenomenon suddenly appeared. Some men like to wander around the neighborhood and quietly find a lover.
For such a situation, the people at the top did not pay attention. They just throw out those who want to hug women, who seem to be playboys, who are not even willing to spend any money and just want to take advantage, or who want to force women to express their attitudes.
One person tasted the sweetness and found a match, and more and more people came here. As long as these men did not enter the core area, everyone left them alone.
As time goes by, some men offer to marry their sweethearts and give them a happy family. A small number of women agreed and followed. More people refused and continued to stay in the mountains.
Another period of time passed, and a child was born. Murong Feng didn't say anything at all. A group of women decided to keep the girl and raise the boy to be a little older and give it to his biological father.
When Murong Feng knew about this, this kind of trend was already prevalent in the daughter country, no, no, no, the cottage. He looked confused and helpless, but he didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, this result made people outside even more excited. I don’t know how many people came here to find my sweetheart and want a son.
There is no need to spend money to marry a wife, as long as you fall in love with someone, you can have a son in a year and a half.
How wonderful it would be if you gave birth to a daughter and didn’t have to raise it yourself!
Thinking of this, Cui Niang snorted coldly, picked up a small baby from the hands of a woman behind her, and stuffed it directly into the arms of the person in charge of the caravan.
"This is your son, take it."
The person in charge quickly picked up the child and asked while coaxing him.
"Where's my daughter?"
Cui Niang snorted softly, turned around and left.
"Our rules here are that a daughter follows her mother and a son follows his father. Don't think about your daughter. Also, don't send people to inquire about me again, otherwise we will make a clean break."
The leader of the caravan ran forward a few steps, grabbed Cuiniang's sleeve and asked.
"Cui Niang, can I marry you?"
"No, that's fine for the two of us."
Cui Niang curled her lips, stubbornly took off the hand holding her sleeve, and said.
The caravan leader raised his eyebrows and asked again.
"Can you bear to see our son without a mother and our daughter without a father?"
Cui Niang sneered and replied: "Be patient."
The leader of the caravan begged for a long time, but Cuiniang did not change her mind. He sighed and had no choice but to take his son, who looked very fragile at first glance, to rest.
When several guys saw this scene, they all comforted and said.
"Big shopkeeper, don't be sad, these ladies are like this. Look, we don't only have a son, but we don't have a wife or a daughter."
The caravan leader glared at each one and ordered.
"Hurry up and finish your work before going to see your sweetheart. We will leave after staying here for three days, so we don't have that much time to delay."
The guys shrugged and set up tent after tent. Many men and women heard the news and came to buy the items they wanted.
This transaction will last three days. After three days, no matter whether anyone else arrives here, the people in their caravan will leave immediately.
Three days passed by in a flash, and the caravan, which had lost half of its cargo, immediately set off and headed into the distance.
Halfway along the way, some guys whispered and asked.
"How do I notice that there are more and more men there?"
Someone smiled mockingly and said.
"What other reason could it be? I want a son!"
Some people were dissatisfied and asked reluctantly.
"Why didn't you say you were looking for a woman?"
He smiled and answered with a curled lip.
"If you want to vent your anger, it's better to go directly to the building, where the prices are cheaper and the people are prettier."
A young boy who had just arrived was confused and asked: "Do I need money to find a boyfriend?"
The old fritters couldn't help laughing when they heard this, and each of them explained one sentence at a time.
It turns out that in the early days of the Daughter Kingdom, some people were really looking for a sweetheart and wanted to take a wife home. After all, there are so many women here, you can always find one you like.
But since the rule came out that daughters should follow their mother and sons should follow their father, most people's purpose is just to have children. Maybe I will only come here once in my life and never come here again.
For such people, there are naturally people who agree. However, the price is clearly marked and cannot be reduced by a penny. If you give birth to a daughter, the money will not be refunded; if you give birth to a son, you will take the child back.
——
On the mountain road, a little girl asked aggrievedly.
"Aunt Cui, why are we doing this? Many people outside are scolding us and saying that we are shameless."
When Cui Niang heard this, her expression did not change and she said directly.
"Self-defilation, delaying heirs, venting anger."
The little girl didn't understand at all and looked at the people around her in confusion.
An aunt couldn't stand it, so she took the girl, crushed her into pieces, moved her away, and explained bit by bit.
What is meant by self-defeating is tarnishing one's own reputation. Although the word "daughter country" sounds nice, it really hurts other people's lungs. If the imperial court sends a large army to attack, these ten thousand women will not be able to eat and carry around.
To extend an inheritance is to leave a queen, a girl, to inherit one's bloodline. In this world, men are not the only ones who value blood. But this place is different from other places. Other places favor boys over girls. This place favors girls over boys, and all male children must be sent away.
As for purging fire, Auntie had no explanation. Just tell the little girl that she will know when she grows up. Men and women are both human beings, and women have the same thoughts that men have. Including lust, ambition, desire to conquer, desire to control...
The little girl understood somewhat and asked again.
"Aunt Cui, don't you feel sad when so many aunts send their sons away?"
The aunt touched the little girl's head and said decisively.
"Of course I'm distressed, but no matter how distressed I am, it can't compare to our future."
The little girl didn't understand and asked, "Why?"
The aunt said: "Because not everyone is our boss, no matter what we do, they are willing to tolerate us. If more and more boys stay here, it will be our daughters who will suffer, our daughters daughters, all our female descendants.”
The little girl shook her head, "I don't understand."
The aunt smiled, patted the little girl's forehead and said.
"When you grow up and see more, you'll understand."
Those women outside will never be free for the rest of their lives. It's like now that they have all the hardships and can do whatever they want. Even if you have to train all day long and sometimes fight and kill people, it's all for your own good life.

After worrying for several days, Zhou Baoer's eyes suddenly lit up when he looked at the wizard who helped them train.
Mr. Lu, whose real name is Lu Tianliang, is as thin as a stick. He is fifty-four years old. His talent is Earth Element and he can control the soil. He has a lazy personality and looks down on ordinary people, but is very kind to talented people.
Zhou Baoer rolled his eyes, showed a big smile in a happy mood, ran over with his short legs, and called out in a clear voice.
"Mr. Lu."
Hearing the cry, Lu Tianliang stopped, a faint smile appeared on his originally serious face, turned around and knelt down to ask.
"Bao'er, it's you! It's rare to see you come to me. Is there something wrong?"
Zhou Baoer grabbed the hem of his clothes with his little hands and said coquettishly.
"Well, don't I have a portable space?"
Mr. Lu didn't understand what she wanted to say, but he nodded anyway.
