After the old man arranged two large yurts for everyone, he also said some precautions.

"Too much trouble, too much trouble!" Chen Yulou said apologetically, clasping his hands in his fists.

"It's okay. Although our village is on the bank of the Yellow River, few people pass by. However, the people in the village are afraid of life. Don't be surprised if I ignore you."

The old man is dressed in ethnic minority clothing, but his Mandarin speaking is standard, and his tone and etiquette are also very appropriate.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Chen Yulou said politely, and then sent the old man out of the yurt.

After Chen Yulou came back, Ye Bai asked: "Brother, what's the problem here?"

Chen Yulou took a sip of water slowly and then said with a smile: "Brother, I'm going to test you. What do you think is unusual about this tribe along the way?"

Ye Bai thought for a while and said: "There are too few people in the tribe, and I didn't see many people in broad daylight. The schedule is abnormal. Moreover, a large group of us entered here, and there was a lot of movement. No one came out to watch. Indeed,

A little weird."

Chen Yulou nodded: "Not bad, but this is not the main reason why your second brother and I decided to stay."

"What's the reason for that?"

"There is a totem embroidered on the old man's clothes, which is a one-eyed snake-shaped creature."

Ye Bai immediately recalled the details and features on the old man's clothes.

"Is it Zhulong?"

"Yes, Zhulong is a mythical beast in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and its eyes are even more unique. It has only one eye and it grows vertically in the forehead."

Partridge Whistle, who had been silent next to him, finally opened his mouth to explain: "Third brother, you also know that our Zagrama tribe was cursed because we worshiped the snake god in the ghost cave, but what is this snake god? We never knew

.I once read all the ancient books to find out information about the snake god, but unfortunately the legends about the snake god are from ancient times, and the information is incomplete and scarce, so I gained nothing."

Ye Bai clarified the logic of Partridge Whistle.

"Wait a minute, second brother, do you think the snake god is the candle dragon?"

The Partridge Whistle nodded: "The earliest record about the snake god comes from the prophets of our Zagrama tribe. They used jade eyeballs as sacrifices at that time. When they saw the corpse of a giant ancient snake deep in the ghost cave, they named it the snake god.

Named. Then there was a curse, and it was thought that the sacrifice at that time offended the snake god."

"Later, the prophets predicted that only by recovering the Muchen Bead can we seek forgiveness from the snake god and lift the curse. Although I have never seen the Muchen Bead, I also know that throughout the ages, the Muchen Bead has been described as shaped like an eye.

, so I guess that this snake god is Zhulong, and the Muchen Bead is its missing eye."

After listening to Partridge Whistle's long explanation, Ye Bai was a little shocked.

This logic does make sense!

Could this snake god really be the candle dragon that appeared in mythology?

Chen Yulou also interjected: "I also think that the second brother's guess is reasonable. If Zhulong is related to the curse on the second brother, then we really need to investigate carefully here."

Seeing that both of them agreed, Ye Bai could only follow the trend.

At lunch time, the old man brought some kumiss and dried meat.

Chen Yulou, who was good at striking up conversations, asked the old man his name, his surname was Qi, and his name was Qi Dahai.

I only got this name because I have never seen the sea.

After Qi Dahai left and everyone tested that the food was ok, they started sharing the food.

Ma Kumiss was spicy and astringent, and Ye Bai couldn't get used to it, but everyone in Xiling drank a lot of it and seemed to like the taste very much.

After eating and drinking, Ye Bai left the yurt, ready to take a walk to eat and explore the situation here.

This tribe is indeed not big, and the yurts are scattered here and there, so you can see them from beginning to end at a glance.

Along the way, except for the old man who was driving cattle and sheep outside, Ye Bai didn't find a woman or child, which was really strange.

At this time, the sound of conversation came from the yurt in front.

"Xiao Hei, the clan is going to sacrifice to the Dragon King tonight. We need to cleanse ourselves and take a bath. We can't go out at will."

"It's just a big snake. What are you praying for? Don't stop me. I want to pee."

As soon as he finished speaking, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy walked out of the yurt, wearing Mongolian clothes and swearing.

It's just that the young man's eyes were covered with black cloth, and he seemed to be blind.

Seeing this young man walking towards him, Ye Bai was about to give in.

But he saw him saying: "Where did this young boy dare to block my way?"

Turns out he is a fake blind man!

Being scolded for no reason, Ye Bai lost his temper and leaned out half of his body to stop the little black guy.

"Boy, did your parents teach you manners?"

"It's none of your business! Get out of the way, young master." Xiao Hei was extremely arrogant, showing his big white teeth, with a piece of green vegetables stuck on his teeth. It seemed that he had just eaten.

Ye Bai took action decisively and punched Xiao Hei in the abdomen.

Knowing that he was very strong, Ye Bai also acted with discretion and only used a small amount of strength.

Unexpectedly, this punch was directly caught by Xiao Hei with one hand.

"Is this how strong you are?" Xiao Hei curled his lips and mocked.

As they said this, the two began to compete with each other, and for a while it was hard to tell who was superior.

Ye Bai was a little surprised. Ever since he got the blood of the white tiger, he had never seen anyone stronger than him.

Who is this little black guy?

But Xiao Hei in front of him was even more surprised than him.

He knew that he had inherited an inhuman bloodline, and the elders told him that there were few people in the world who could compare with him.

Unexpectedly, before leaving the village, he encountered a difficult opponent.

However, after all, Ye Bai studied under Partridge Shao and Chen Yulou. He has learned a lot of martial arts from these two people in the past few months, and he has achieved some success.

Ye Bai stretched out his foot, tripped Xiao Hei to the ground, and then used a small grapple to hold Xiao Hei down with one hand.

Xiao Hei was pinned into the soil and could not move.

After taking a big mouthful of dirt, Xiao Hei raised his head and cursed angrily: "You kid, what kind of sneak attack do you think you are capable of!"

Ye Bai increased his strength and pushed Xiao Hei to the ground again.

"Are you convinced?"

"Not convinced!"

"Are you convinced?"

"I'm not convinced!"

Ye Bai lifted Xiao Hei up, used the same move again, and pushed Xiao Hei to the ground.

Although poor Xiao Hei was strong, he could only use brute force and was pulled back and forth like a puppet on strings in Ye Bai's hands.

After a few times, Xiao Hei's gums were bleeding from biting down, and his head was covered with clods of dirt. He was still stunned.

Ye Bai couldn't help but admire him, this guy was a ruthless person.

"Even if you kill me, I won't accept it!" Xiao Hei gritted his teeth.

"If you don't accept it, I will take off your pants and let your tribe come and see." Ye Bai said harshly.

Xiao Hei thought to himself, I am the young clan leader appointed by the elders. If the clan members see the scene of my naked buttocks, how dignified can I be? How can I take Xiao Hua and Xiao Hong as my wife in the future?

Seeing that Xiao Hei didn't speak, Ye Bai knew that he had touched his sore spot.

"How about it? If you don't accept it, I'll take off my pants."

"I'm convinced! I'm convinced! I'm convinced!"

"Just take it. What's your name?"

"Qi...Xiao Hei."

"For what?"

"Horse breeder."

"Call me brother?"

"Brother."
