I Am Reciting the Classic of Mountains and Seas in the Interstellar

Chapter 919 The Forbidden Forest (5,000-Word Chapter)

On the creek that divides the forest and grassland, there is a crooked wooden bridge that looks like it will break soon.

On the other side of the creek, the grass on the grassland looked at least half a person tall.

This scene really reminded Xia Chujian of an ancient poem.

The sky is clear, the fields are vast, and the grass is blown by the wind, and cattle and sheep can be seen low.

A gust of wind blew, and the green grass fell low. She did not see the cattle or sheep emerging from the grass, but she saw two people.

A girl, wearing clothes that were almost the same color as the green grass, and another man in red clothes hugged each other tightly and squatted in the grass.

The girl's hair was very black and long, braided into two long braids, hanging down on her chest.

Her facial features look good, delicate and straight, but her skin is a bit rough and her cheeks are a little red.

Her eyes were panicked, like a frightened deer, turning her head and looking in all directions.

The man next to her is a young man with regular facial features, short hair and wearing red clothes.

His face was full of anger, and he hugged the girl in his arms tightly.

Xia Chujian jumped lightly and flew up to a big tree on the edge of the forest. Among the dense leaves, he quietly looked at the two people.

She is unfamiliar with this place and will be wary of anyone who appears here.

Of course, what alarmed her most was that she had never seen a normal human being since she came to the X galaxy where the Green Star was located.

Where did this girl and this man come from?

Xia Chujian sat on a branch and looked into the distance at leisure.

Not long after, she saw several figures appearing on the vast grassland, and the sound of horse hooves tapping was heard, shaking the grassland.

The girl and the man were so frightened that they fell to the ground, and then quickly crawled towards the forest.

They thought they were well hidden, but they were chased by not only horses but also hounds.

Not long after, the dogs barked one after another and chased them.

The two simply stopped crawling, stood up from the ground, and ran hard towards the forest.

Both of them stood up, and Xia Chu saw what they were wearing.

The woman's upper body is a double-breasted half-sleeved coarse cloth gown, and the lower body is a horse-faced skirt.

In order to make it easier to run, she picked up a corner of her skirt and buckled it on the belt around her waist.

There is a small flower crown on the girl's head.

When she got closer, Xia Chu saw clearly that the green color on the girl's body was not dyed very evenly.

One area is darker, another area is shallow, and the mottled spots look like they were dyed green after rolling in the grass.

And the red clothes on the man looked like a robe.

However, just like the girl's clothes, the robe was also dyed in shades of red, rough and messy.

But there is an indescribable sense of publicity and joy.

Xia Chujian watched the girl and the young man running towards the edge of the forest step by step.

When the two young men and women came to the stream that separated the grassland and the forest, they suddenly stopped and stopped running.

They turned sharply to look at their pursuers.

The group of people on horses and with hounds gradually caught up.

Then, these people stopped about ten meters away from the two people.

Xia Chujian looked up and saw eight horses.

On each horse sat a man.

The clothes of these men are similar to those in the Beichen Galaxy.

They were all hunting jackets, overalls, and boots in stirrups.

He held a riding whip in his hand, and the handle of the riding whip was inlaid with dazzling rubies.

Xia Chujian narrowed his eyes.

The texture of this ruby ​​is almost the same as that of her ruby ​​tree bonsai...

That's a fine ruby!

And the clothes these men are wearing, although they look like ordinary hunting clothes, the texture...

Xia Chujian clicked her tongue in her heart.

The material looks really good.

Comparing the clothes worn by the young man and woman, as well as the condition of their skin, showed that they were at the bottom of society.

And the men sitting on the horses are all young men with tender skin and tender flesh.

It's like... the sharp contrast between the nobles in the Beichen galaxy and the humanoid pariahs.

Xia Chujian watched quietly.

The eight men sitting on the horses and the young men and women standing in front of the dividing line of the forest and grassland did not notice that there was another person sitting on the treetops at the edge of the forest not far from them.

Xia Chujian's military uniform was in forest camouflage color, blending seamlessly with the environment.

Now that the sky is getting dark again, if the other party does not use special instruments, such as a telescope with a far-infrared system, it will be impossible to tell that there is anyone there.

Xia Chujian was hiding safely.

At this time, the man on the horse in front pointed his riding crop at the young man and woman, and said with a cruel smile: "You run! Let me see where else you can run to?!"

A man on a horse behind him also said: "If you dare to run into the forbidden forest behind you, I will obey you!"

Hearing his words, the young man and woman hugged each other tighter. They were obviously extremely angry and frightened, but no matter what, they still did not dare to turn around, cross the small stream, and run into the forest behind them.

Xia Chujian's eyes flashed.

So this place is called the Forbidden Forest?

This name is not easy to get along with at first sight.

But she has lived here for four or five days and has not encountered any danger?

Xia Chujian began to think thoughtfully.

At this time, the third man drove his horse forward and whipped his riding whip into the air, making a snapping sound.

He said coldly: "You still dare to run?!"

"You don't even look at your own virtues?!"

"Do we, Mr. Shentu, want any beauty?! As for trying so hard to get an ugly village girl like you!"

At this time, the girl in green dress suddenly knelt down, kowtowed to the man who spoke first and said, "Master Shentu, please let Xiao Mo go!"

"Xiao Mo is getting married today... Xiao Mo wants to marry her husband cleanly!"

The young man in red robe quickly pulled the kowtowing girl up.

He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice to the first man who spoke: "Master Shentu, what kind of woman do you want?"

"We are just inferior people, your tenant slaves, and we are not worthy of you at all. Why do you have to force us?"

The man called Mr. Shentu lowered his face and said disdainfully, "You're still breathing hard because of your shame!"

"I want to sleep with your bride, is it because I like her?!"

"Ah! With her ugly, dirty and smelly appearance, she took advantage of me when I slept with her!"

The young man in red robe said loudly: "We don't want to take advantage of you! We are all inferior people, and we will dirty a superior person like you!"

"Please also ask Mr. Shentu to let us live!"

Mr. Shentu got off the horse, twirling the whip in his hand, and suddenly took out a gun with his other hand, pointed it at the man in red robe, and said with a sneer: "I told you, I want to sleep with her. Not because of her!"

"Don't put gold on your face!"

"When I sleep with her, I am exercising my lord's first night right!"

"You ask these low-class tenant slaves who are hundreds of miles away, who has a wife, not a man from our Shentu family, to exercise the right of first night?!"

"Why can't I sleep with your woman?!"

This is about his dignity as a lord and family member!

Xia Chujian squinted his eyes and saw the gun in the man's hand, if it could be called a gun.

Qilu has already started typing on her eyepiece display.

[Qilu]: Master, that is just a very primitive handgun, not a pistol in the true sense. Can't burst, can only click.

Xia Chujian raised the corners of her lips and suddenly flew down from the tree, landing quietly on the grass under the tree.

She put away the goggles, bent down, grabbed a few handfuls of grass seeds from the ground, and smeared them on her face, hands, and the forest camouflage uniform.

Fortunately, her military uniform did not have any markings, but the material was extraordinary.

Now when she rubs it with grass seeds, her face, body, legs, and arms are all covered with deep and light earthy green.

At first glance in the dark night, it looks similar to the green dress worn by the girl named Xiao Mo.

Xia Chujian drove Shao Si Ming's mecha and flew silently from the forest on the other side of the stream to the grassland on this side of the stream.

She touched her chin and looked thoughtfully at the joys and sorrows that were still unfolding not far ahead.

The man opposite, Mr. Shen Tu, was speaking with an angry look on his face, and he had already begun to pull the lead with one hand to shoot.

He pointed at the young man in red robe, but spoke to the girl in green dress.

"Your name is Xiao Mo, right? If you are really stubborn, go to the forbidden forest behind you now!"

"As long as you dare to go in, what will happen if I don't sleep with you?!"

"You don't even poop and look at yourself! With such virtue, you are worthy of letting me sleep with you?!"

The so-called Master Shentu's words made the two young men and women almost cry holding each other's hands.

But no matter how humiliated or intimidated they were, they didn't dare to look back at the forest behind them.

To be so scared...

Xia Chujian found it more interesting.

Master Shentu said loudly: "I'll give you one last chance!"

"Now go over there and take off your clothes obediently, and let me and my friends exercise our right to have the first night. We will let you go back when you are done."

"If you refuse, you will have to be a widow...but you still have to let us sleep!"

The girl in the green dress cried with tears all over her face. She held onto her groom tightly and said, "Ace, go over there...don't look here...block your ears..."

The man in red robe turned out to be A Ce.

Hearing his bride speak like this, Ah Ce's heart almost broke.

He hugged the girl and cried, "Xiao Mo! I'm useless! I'm useless!"

As he said that, he suddenly pushed the girl away and rushed toward Master Shentu, as if he wanted to die with him.

When Master Shentu saw that the situation was not good, he was about to pull the trigger.

Whoosh!

There was no gunshot, only the sound of an arrow piercing the slightly dull night sky.

The girl in a green dress cried loudly: "Ace! Ace!"

She thought it was Mr. Shentu who fired the shot and killed her groom Ace.

But Ace still stood there well.

On the forehead of Mr. Shentu, the tail of an arrow appeared.

The entire arrow was stuck in his forehead, and only the tail of the arrow was still outside, trembling endlessly.

Master Shentu stood there blankly, and the gun in his hand finally fell with a clatter.

Then the whole person flopped backwards and fell to the ground.

The other seven men on horseback also thought that Master Shentu had killed A Ce.

When they realized that it was not Master Shentu who killed A Ce, but Master Shentu who was shot dead, they were all shocked and angry.

They all thought it was A Ce and Xiao Mo who did it.

One by one, they took out the same gun and pointed it at A Ce and Xiao Mo.

But their speed is still not fast enough.

Because as soon as they took out their guns, trembling arrow tails magically appeared on their foreheads.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

After seven arrows, the seven men all fell off their horses and fell on the grass.

As for the hounds they had brought over, they were all lying on the ground trembling, as if they were facing some extremely ferocious beast.

Ace and Xiaomo turned around suddenly and looked at the forbidden forest behind them in surprise.

When Master Shentu died, they didn't know what happened.

But after all seven men were killed, they realized that someone was shooting arrows from the forbidden forest behind them!

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the forest in the forbidden area opposite was so dark that you couldn't even see your fingers.

Between the shadows, it seems that huge black figures can be seen, wandering in the forest.

A Ce and Xiao Mo were trembling with fear, but they did not run away immediately.

The two looked at each other, then knelt down facing the forest, kowtowed and said, "Thank you God! You saved us!"

Xia Chujian walked out of the grass that was half a man tall.

She was holding a crossbow in her hand, and her hair was disheveled, just above her shoulders.

At first glance, the clothes on her body are similar in color and texture to Xiao Mo's clothes.

The face was also smeared with grass seeds and dirt, making it look dirty.

He is relatively tall, half a head taller than Ace.

Xiao Mo only reached her shoulders.

A Ce and Xiao Mo opened their mouths.

They looked at Xia Chujian and then at the eight men who had just been shot to death. They couldn't believe their eyes.

A Ce asked in surprise: "Excuse me, was it the girl who shot the arrow just now?"

Xia Chujian nodded to them and raised his hand to show off his crossbow.

Ah Ce's eyes widened and he murmured in a sleepy voice: "...Oh my God, did I read that right? It turns out he is really our great benefactor!"

"Where did the benefactor come from? Where is he going?"

Xiao Mo also said: "...Ace, you read that right, it was indeed this benefactor who saved us!"

With that said, she pulled Ace to kneel down and kowtow to Xia Chujian.

Xia Chujian hurriedly grabbed them, shook his head, pointed at himself, and then at the grassland outside, pretending to be mute.

It took a while for A Ce and Xiao Mo to discover that their benefactor was mute.

She was tall and thin, and although her face was a little dirty, her eyes looked particularly clear and bright in the darkening night.

Xia Chujian pointed back at the forest behind him and asked them why they didn't hide in?

Xiao Mo hurriedly gestured with Xia Chujian, and finally understood what Xia Chujian meant, and said hurriedly: "My benefactor, you are not a local, are you?"

"You can't enter the forbidden forest!"

"There are evil spirits and ferocious beasts there."

"No matter who goes in, they can't get out!"

"Our people here will not enter the Forbidden Forest even if they kill themselves!"

Xia Chujian tilted his head, with a confused look on his face, and his eyes seemed to be able to talk, asking why?

A Ce boldly said: "I heard that people who die in the Forbidden Forest will have their souls devoured and will not have a next life."

"So we would rather die outside the Forbidden Forest than go in."

Xia Chujian: "..."

She thought, who spread this rumor?

She thinks the forbidden forest is quite good, especially the Dororo bird, the meat is so delicious...

When Xia Chu saw that he was in deep thought, A Ce boldly said, "Did my benefactor come out of the Forbidden Forest?"

Xia Chujian thought for a while and shook his head, indicating that he didn't come from there.

She pointed in the other direction of the grassland, then pointed at the dead people on the ground, and asked them what happened with gestures.

The language of these people is very similar to the language of the Beichen Galaxy, but they also have their own accents.

Xia Chujian was not a language genius, and she was afraid that others would see that she was not from here, so she simply pretended to be mute.

And although she understood their language, she seemed unable to understand the meaning of their words.

Xiao Mo asked tentatively: "The benefactor is asking, why are they chasing us?"

Xia Chujian nodded.

A Ce and Xiao Mo both looked sad.

A Ce's lips murmured a few times, as if he didn't know how to speak.

It was Xiao Mo who flicked his long braid and said, "Since my benefactor wants to ask, there's nothing I can't answer."

"These people are chasing us because they want to exercise the right of first night to me."

Xia Chujian's big eyes flickered, and his face was full of confusion. He didn't understand what... Chuye Quan was.

She suddenly bent down, pulled out a crossbow arrow from a man's forehead, scratched it on the grass, and wrote a few words.

Xia Chujian: What is Chuyequan?

As soon as she wrote it, A Ce and Xiao Mo showed embarrassment and grief and anger at the same time.

Xia Chu saw something in her heart and thought, these two people don't look like they are from a wealthy family, but they are actually literate...

Seeing this sentence, Xiao Mo lowered his head and tears flowed out again.

A Ce pursed his lips and said angrily: "We are inferior people, tenant slaves of the Shentu family!"

"The Shentu family is favored by the gods and is a superior person!"

"According to the regulations of the Kingdom of Love, superior men have the right to have the first night of women who are land tenant slaves."

"This has been the case here for generations. Every wife from a tenant slave family will let someone from the lord's family exercise the right of first night."

"Every family will throw their first-born son to death..."

Xia Chujian: "..."

I still don’t understand what the right of first night is.

Ace stared at Xia Chujian, not knowing how to explain it for a moment.

The girl in front of him was taller than him, but she really didn't seem to understand anything.

At this time, Xiao Mo raised his head, looked at Xia Chujian, and whispered: "...that is, if we want to get married, our first time will be given to our tenant, the young master of the Shentu family just now."

"I don't want to...I want to marry my husband cleanly..."

"But the Shentu family refused to let us go and chased us all the way here..."

Only then did Xia Chujian understand.

It turns out that the first night is the first time between a woman and a man...
