Chapter 969 The Four Ancient Tribes! (superior)
Da Qing paused, then continued:
"As for the second sequelae, it is the so-called 'losing your mind and going crazy'. The emergence of this sequelae is actually easy to understand.
Because no matter how powerful the warrior is and how exquisite his cultivation is, those white mud insects are microorganisms that are pervasive and have strong reproductive capabilities. When a warrior's mental power weakens, they will still try their best to attack the warrior's brain.
Once it enters the brain of a warrior, symptoms of madness will naturally appear.
Therefore, as long as a warrior voluntarily allows the white mud insect to enter the body, these two hidden dangers already exist.
The Bao Clan took advantage of the greed of these warriors for the ability to live forever, so that so many warriors became victims of the Green Demon without any reason! "
After hearing Da Qing's explanation, Lin Chen immediately asked:
"If you put it this way...the Bao clan tried their best to trick powerful warriors from China to obtain that ability. What can they gain by doing this?"
Da Qing smiled coldly, her eyes extremely cold.
"You know that the Green Demon will bear fruit, right?"
Lin Chen said blankly: "I've heard about this...but is it related to the behavior of the Bao clan?"
Da Qing snorted coldly: "Of course it's related! The Bao clan tied the white mud insects and green demons together, using the warriors' fear and pursuit of unknown things to make them voluntarily invaded by the white mud insects, and then let their blood flow into their bodies. Into the stems of the green demon!
And the blood of these warriors contains their powerful inner strength.
As I said, internal energy is actually a kind of life energy. And with the nourishment of energy, Green Demon, a strange tree that has lived for an unknown amount of time, can burst out with amazing vitality, and then bloom and bear fruit.
And the biggest reward of the Bao tribe’s hard work in arranging everything is the fruit of Green Demon!
This fruit is an integrated product of energy essence. Not only can people truly prolong their lives, but it can also increase the internal energy activity of warriors, so that those who take it can make rapid progress!
The Bao Clan used the combination of Green Demon and White Mud Insect to gradually become stronger in these long years!
In the past, the ranking of the four ancient tribes was determined based on the time when each tribe appeared. The ancient tribe that appeared first was the most powerful ethnic group.
The last ancient clan to appear was naturally at the bottom in terms of strength.
This method of the Bao clan has allowed their clansmen to continue to grow for thousands of years. Whether they are dead or living, they can be called the most powerful among the four ancient clans! "
Hearing this, Lin Chen asked again:
"Benefactor, you mean...these four ancient races did not exist at the same time? Is there a chronological order?"
Daqing smiled bitterly, but still patiently explained:
"Well, since you want to repay your kindness, I will explain to you the ins and outs of the four ancient clans! After you listen, you will naturally understand why the four ancient clans are incompatible with each other, and you can also understand why I am living here. Already..."
Lin Chen nodded and said solemnly: "Please tell me!"
Da Qing turned around and looked at the jade statue of her ancestors, her expression a little strange. But then she sighed and suddenly asked a strange question.
"Lin Chen, did you know that...the heads of the four ancient tribes are all women?"
"They are all women?" Lin Chen was obviously surprised, "This... is a bit unbelievable. If they are all women, how can we ensure the inheritance of the ethnic group? My benefactor, please forgive me, women will get married sooner or later. After getting married, the children born to a woman will inevitably take the surname of her husband’s family. In this way, how can these four ancient tribes be passed down?”
Da Qing smiled lightly, with a hint of melancholy in her eyes.
"You are right. But the four ancient families are not ordinary families in the outside world, and they are also very different from ordinary people.
In fact, to put it in layman’s terms, these four ancient tribes are all matriarchal social groups! What we advocate is...women dominate everything! Among the four ancient tribes, the status and importance of women far exceed that of men! "
"ah?"
Lin Chen opened his mouth wide, showing an expression of incredible shock.
Matriarchal society did exist for a period of time in history. But it existed before the emergence of slave society, that is, before the Xia and Shang dynasties.
At that time, human intelligence was not developed much, and they still lived a primitive life of eating hair and drinking blood. In various human groups, the leader is a woman.
But after all, that happened thousands of years ago, and most of the specific conditions of matrilineal society have no historical data to verify. Modern people only know that matriarchal societies did exist in history.
Therefore, when Lin Chen heard that the four ancient tribes were all a matriarchal society, he was naturally shocked.
However, Da Qing didn't seem surprised by his shock. She just smiled lightly and continued:
"Among our four ancient clans, not only the clan leader must be a woman, but even if the clan leader gets married, after having a child... the child, whether male or female, must follow the mother's surname! And the girl born to the clan leader , will inherit the position of patriarch in the future, and then pass it on from generation to generation!
Only in this way can the four ancient tribes be passed on, and at the same time, only in this way can we ensure the dominant position of women in the ethnic group.
In addition, if the clan leader never gives birth to a girl, then he will keep giving birth to a girl!
Of course, there are also unlucky clan leaders who have seven or eight children but still have no girls... At this time, when the current clan leader can no longer give birth to children due to age or other problems, the clan leader's sister or other direct female descendants will inherit the clan leader.
In short, the clan leaders of the four ancient clans must be women, and they must be direct female descendants of the clan! "
Listening to this extremely strange clan rule, Lin Chen's expression became even more shocked.
He had only heard of matriarchal society, but now when he was facing a matriarchal clan that really existed, he still found it difficult to understand and accept this concept.
In addition, he also thought of a very absurd possible fact... Could it be that these four ancient clans all practiced inbreeding? Then how can the quality of offspring be ensured? Could it be that every child born is born with congenital deficiencies?
Da Qing seemed to see Lin Chen's doubts and cast a contemptuous look at him.
"I know what you are thinking.
Although our four ancient clans adhere to the ancient teachings and traditions passed down by our ancestors, we also know the terrible consequences of inbreeding.
Therefore, thousands of years ago, our four ancient clans established clan rules. Whenever the current clan leader or the successor comes of age, they will conduct external assessments and recruit husbands. This is also a rule and a tradition. "
