"Tell me the details of these two tribes." Nanfeng asked.

Although Jiang Tianshun was sitting on his own, he was sitting sideways, not daring to sit upright, and spoke with trepidation, "My late mother rarely mentioned the Xuantian clan when she was alive, and I only knew a little bit about it. According to me, As we know, the Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan have been feuding for generations. In addition to their unique bloodlines, the two tribes also have their own Qi training methods. Whether it is to generate armor or transform into a beast body, it requires blood supplemented by spiritual energy."

After waiting for a while, Jiang Tianshun continued to talk, Nanfeng took the initiative to ask, "Does the power of these two races depend more on blood or spiritual energy cultivation?"

Jiang Tianshun replied, "Bloodline is the foundation stone. If it is there, it is there, and if it is not, it is not there. There is no distinction between superior and inferior. As for how many layers of the tower are built on the foundation stone, it depends on the level of spiritual energy cultivation." At this point, Jiang Tianshun Tianshun hurriedly added, "I made my own guess based on my late mother's fragmentary words. As for the truth, I don't know."

Nanfeng nodded. Jiang Tianshun meant that the innate bloodline of the two clans only served as the cornerstone. As for the power of the armor and the transformed beast body, it still depends on the level of acquired spiritual energy.

"Which tribe does your daughter originally belong to?" Nanfeng asked again.

"My late mother originally belonged to the Xuan Clan, but my late mother did not have a different bloodline inheritance," Jiang Tianshun said. After speaking, he took the initiative to explain, "Both the Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan have tens of thousands of people, but only 10% of them are members of the clan. Continuing the bloodline of aliens, only these people can give birth to armor or transform into beast bodies."

Nanfeng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there were so many people in these two tribes. A tribe with more than 10,000 people was considered a big tribe. However, the Xuan tribe and the Tian tribe actually had tens of thousands of people. So many people lived in the far north. The land of ice shows the vastness of the Far North.

After frowning, Nanfeng asked again, "Did your father-in-law ever tell you what kind of alien species the special bloodlines possessed by these two tribes were during his lifetime?"

"My mother never said that," Jiang Tianshun shook his head, "but according to my guess, the bloodline of the Xuan clan that can transform into animal bodies should be derived from the genus of snakes and pythons, and the bloodline of the Celestial clan that can give birth to armor should be derived from some kind of turtle. kind."

Seeing the suspicion on Nanfeng's face, Jiang Tianshun hurriedly added, "The reason why I made this guess is because although my late mother was very secretive about the bloodline, she once said that the totems worshiped by these two tribes are the sacred snake and the sacred turtle."

After Jiang Tianshun said this, Nanfeng did not ask immediately. Instead, he summarized what Jiang Tianshun said in his mind. According to Jiang Tianshun, there are two tribes, the Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan, that are hostile to each other in the land of ice in the far north. Tribe, the Xuan tribe lives on the ground and can transform into animal bodies. The Celestials live underground and can produce armor.

According to ordinary people's understanding, the Celestial Clan should live on the ground, while the Xuan Clan should live underground. In fact, this is a one-sided view of people who do not understand Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. As the saying goes, Xuan is the sky and the sky is the sky. These two clans use Xuantian as their clan name, which just shows that they have a great background and are not ordinary mortals.

After a brief pause, Nanfeng asked again, "Is the transformed beast body of the Xuan clan a cold-resistant alien?"

"Of course." Jiang Tianshun's answer was not sure. "Of course." It meant maybe, perhaps.

"With the improvement of spiritual energy cultivation, will the Xuan clan's transformed beast body undergo different changes?" Nanfeng asked again.

"I don't know," Jiang Tianshun shook his head, "My mother once inadvertently said that someone transformed into a red wolf to hunt prey, so I guess that the red wolf of the Xuan tribe is the third level of the red energy of our Middle Earth. As for the blue energy It is impossible to guess whether the third level is transformed into a green wolf or another cyan animal body."

Nanfeng nodded slowly. Although Jiang Tianshun had a fat head, his thoughts were very clear, and his guess was not unreasonable.

Jiang Tianshun carefully pushed the teacup on the table to Nanfeng, "I'd like to have some tea, sir."

Nanfeng turned to look at Jiang Tianshun, picked up the teacup, and just brought it to his mouth. He put the teacup down again when he remembered something, "Does the armor produced by the Celestial Clan also have color differences?"

Jiang Tianshun shook his head, "I don't know. My late mother rarely mentioned things in the Far North. Maybe the Xuantian clan has a taboo in their clan rules that forbids people to leave the ice field. My late mother has been uneasy since she left the Far North. I said before What the real person knows is all guesswork from some of my late mother’s unintentional words in the early years.”

Nan Feng nodded again, then picked up the teacup and took a sip. After putting down the teacup, he came up with a piece of condensed talisman paper and a few columns of text, and handed it to Jiang Tianshun.

Jiang Tianshun didn't know why, so he reached out and took it. When he saw the words on the talisman paper clearly, he knew that it was written from the heavenly book. He was shocked and happy, and he fell to the ground and knelt down to thank him.

Nanfeng extended his spiritual energy to support him up, "What else do you want to say to me?"

Jiang Tianshun received a heavy reward and was eager to provide as many clues to Nanfeng as possible, but as he himself said, his knowledge of the situation in the Far North was very limited. He only knew that the Far North was extremely cold, and the people of the Middle Kingdom I simply can't stand the severe cold. There are also many strange birds and beasts in the far north that are not found in Middle Earth.

After Jiang Tianshun finished speaking, Nanfeng stood up and left.

Jiang Tianshun suddenly remembered something, "According to my late mother, there is no vegetation in the far north, but my mother also said that the Xuantian clan only eats cooked food, and I don't know where they get their firewood."

Nanfeng nodded, and just as he was about to leave, Jiang Tianshun remembered something again, "In the far north, black and white are sometimes reversed. Sometimes there is boundless darkness for many days in a row, but sometimes it is all day and there is no black sky. In addition, The far north is a land of ice and snow, with frequent storms, and it’s easy to get lost there.”

Seeing Jiang Tianshun's memories coming one after another and scattered, Nanfeng sat down again and said, "Don't be in a hurry. Think slowly and say whatever comes to mind."

Jiang Tianshun responded respectfully, and sat back on his seat, frowning as he recalled. Not long after, he remembered another detail, "The language of some nomadic tribes in Mobei is quite different from that of China, but the language used by the Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan It’s roughly the same as the Chinese language.”

Nanfeng looked sideways in confusion. The Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan are located in the far north of Mobei. Logically speaking, the language should not be similar to that of the Middle Earth. There is only one reasonable explanation for this situation, and that is that the Xuan Clan and the Tian Clan are from the Middle Earth. The land migrated over.

But then I thought about it, and it was wrong. Jiang Tianshun just said that the extreme north is extremely cold, and the people of Middle-earth cannot bear it at all. They say that when people go to higher places, water flows to lower places, and Middle-earth is more suitable for human habitation. Why did they move north

It doesn't make sense to say that they were just fleeing. There are tens of thousands of people from the Xuan Clan and Tian Clan, and a few of them have alien blood. Ordinary soldiers are no match for them. Besides, they also have Qi training methods. It seems that there is no danger that can force them to move to the barren land of the far north.

Furthermore, the heterogeneous bloodline of the Xuantian clan is most likely related to Xuanwu. Xuanwu is a fusion of turtle and snake, and its direction is also the north. The sacred snake and turtle worshiped by the Xuantian clan are most likely related to Xuanwu.

If you think about it carefully, it is not very likely that the Xuantian clan moved north for the people from China. On the contrary, it is more likely that the people from China moved south for the Xuantian clan.

However, no matter which case it is, the time when it occurred should be very far away, so far away that Mobei, between the two places, gave birth to other foreign races and several foreign languages that were different from the two places.

Thinking of this, Nanfeng retracted his thoughts and looked at Jiang Tianshun, "Your accent is similar to the accent of which area in China?"

"When I remember, my late mother's accent was very similar to that of the people around me, but occasionally there would be a lingering sound," Jiang Tianshun raised his hand and pointed south, "It's a bit like the accent in some places in the south of the Yangtze River."

Nanfeng nodded again. It was certain that both the Xuantian and Xuantian clans were Han Chinese. Because in the early years of the Wuhu rebellion, the Han people in the north were almost wiped out. Therefore, the current accent in the north is mixed with many foreign accents, unlike Jiangnan is so pure.

Seeing that Jiang Tianshun could no longer think of any useful clues, Nanfeng stood up and left, returning to Chang'an.

Back at the Qixing Villa, Yuan Anning was talking to Chu Huairou in her room. Seeing Nanfeng return, Yuan Anning stood up and said, "We are ready and can hit the road."

"Okay," Nanfeng nodded, "By the way, didn't the emperor send some congratulatory gifts earlier? I remember there were some fur clothes inside. How many of them can you bring..."
