Chapter 34 Wim
The inside of the tall stone city is peaceful, completely different from the dangerous environment outside. People here live a busy and stable life. Women wear bark clothes, men only wear animal skins around their lower bodies, and some children have naked buttocks. Chase, the tall stone walls and magnificent totem trees are protecting them.

Walking on the wide dirt road, curious tribesmen cast strange glances on both sides. Some half-grown children even covered their noses to show distasteful expressions. The Taka tribe is the poorest among the nearby surnamed tribes. Li Yan and the others were still covered with dung and mud, so they were indeed a bit disgusting.

Passing through layers of thatched houses, we came to the tall totem tree.

Quiet!

This word is the most appropriate to describe the feeling of being under the tree. There is a circle of tall thatched houses around the big tree, and one of the thatched houses with a red grass roof is the most conspicuous. There are many yellow gourds hanging on the door of the red thatched house.

"Wait here for a while, I'll call Mu over here." Wen Shui said.

"Uh-huh."

More than a dozen people in Li Yan stood quietly, the totem tree above their heads blocked the scorching sun, and it was quiet and cool under the tree, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of grass and trees.

After waiting quietly for half an hour, Wen Sou accompanied a mysterious old woman with white hair and walked out of the red-roofed thatched cottage slowly.

The old woman was dressed in a black bark coat, with a lot of bone shells braided in her hair, and a golden bronze collar around her neck. When she walked, those collars made clanking noises.

This old woman is the Mu of the Wenjia tribe, and also Li Yan's grandmother. Li Yan's father is one of the old woman's many sons.

After Wen Mu walked out of the thatched hut, she fixed her eyes on Li Yan, and then quickened her pace. Two middle-aged women were guarding her nervously.

Li Yan frowned, recalling the memory of the original owner, and also remembered this Wenmu.

The original owner Li Yan lived in the Wenjia tribe for several years after his birth, and was later sent back to live in the Taka tribe where his mother lived, but his younger sister Ying never came to the Wenjia tribe.

The matrilineal society is very strange. The mother-inhabited two tribes are related, especially those two tribes with a good relationship. The children born have to live in both tribes for a period of time, and finally return to the tribe where the mother is. There are even situations where a couple lives in the man's tribe for a period of time before returning to the woman's tribe. Of course, some men snatch a woman to be their spouse, which is completely father-centered.

"Mum." Li Yan remembered that he used to call her that.

"You are Yan?" Wen Mu lost a lot of his teeth, and when he smiled, his mouth was like a crescent moon.

"Yeah, I'm Yan." Li Yan nodded.

Wen Mu looked at Tamar and Sakura again, and also called Tamar and Sakura's names. Tamar's father was also one of her sons.

With the increase of population, many tribes have to move some of their tribes to other places to occupy more land. Over time, they become clans with the same surname, while the Taka and Wenga tribes are just one of the tribal alliances with the same surname. Clans and clans intermarry with each other, and intermarried clansmen also have stricter requirements.

"Mum, I'm the patriarch of the Taka tribe now." Li Yan called the three teenagers to him, "These three are just grown-up members of our tribe. My tribe needs some people. I hope that Mu can find one for them." spouse."

"Huh? Then who are their mothers? Who is their father?" Mulian asked.

"This." Li Yan was stunned and forgot about it.

Seeing this, Tamar even said, "Mom, I know."

Wen Sulian bent down and whispered something in Wen Mu's ear.

Wen Mu asked a middle-aged woman next to her to leave with Tamar and Sakura. This middle-aged woman is the white witch of the Wenjia tribe, and they are going to deal with some marriage exchange matters.

Wen Mu asked again: "Yan, you mean that your tribe wants to increase the number of people?"

"Yes! It would be great if all three of my clansmen could bring their spouses back to the Taka tribe." Li Yan nodded.

"In this case, I can only give you some Waishi people." Wen Mu said, "And, your females will stay in our tribe and work for our Wenjia tribe for three years."

The Wai Clan people refer to those children born to men of the same clan who plunder the women of the tribe with the other surname. The blood of these children is not pure, and they are often assigned to some less important positions.

"Yeah." Li Yan nodded, "I'll just keep one female in the Wenjia clan, and I'll pick her up again in a few years."

Wen Mu looked at Li Yan benevolently, and said with a smile: "By the way, I heard that the Wudang people attacked your tribe before, and your Taka tribe did not suffer any losses, right?"

Li Yan's heart sank, and he replied: "More than a dozen people died in our tribe, so... that's why I... thought about going back with some people."

"Huh?" Lao Mulian frowned, "Yan, why don't you bring the Taka tribe to join the Wenga tribe, our Wenga tribe has just cleaned up the beasts in a mountain depression, and there can be a large piece of wheat planted there, you come here You don’t have to worry about going hungry.”

"Mom, the valley of our Taka tribe is very stable. I am already a full-fledged Pangu warrior of the first order, and Tamar has also become a Pangu warrior. Our Taka tribe will no longer be bullied by other tribes." Li Yan understood. This is grandma's kindness, but why is he willing to let others down.

suddenly--

A rough voice came from behind.

"What, the Taka tribe is here, why didn't you tell me?"

Hearing the sound, Li Yan looked back, and saw a tall, black bear-like, stubble-faced strong man leading several animal-skinned men. This strong man had a big scar on his chest. He walked steadily and steadily. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, exuding a compelling aura.

Li Yan intuitively felt that he should be above the second level.

This person is Wen Zhan, the patriarch of the Wenjia tribe, and Li Yan's uncle. Speaking of this uncle, Li Yan still remembers being spanked by him when he was a child.

Seeing this person approaching, Li Yan involuntarily moved back.

"You, aren't you Yan?" Wen Zhan grinned, and when he spoke, he reached out and picked his butt.

"Wen Wen Zhan Clan. Patriarch." Li Yan raised his head and said.

Wen Zhan sat down, looked at Li Yan with a smile, and glanced at Li Yan's butt, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while, you have grown up a lot, Yan"

"Yeah, I'm going to change the spouses of some tribesmen with Mu, and I will leave soon, very soon," Li Yan said cautiously.

"Spouse?" Wen Zhan slapped his head, "That's right, you Taka people haven't come here to change your spouse this year, I forgot about it, people from Yu's tribe and Wo's tribe came here to change their spouses a few days ago At that time, the patriarch of the Wo clan gave me a beast horn knife, which is very sharp."

The Yu family and the Wo family are also related to the Wenjia clan. The Wenjia clan is the most powerful, and it is a central clan in the south of the tribal alliance with the surname surname.

"Our Taka tribe brought over dried fish, wait for me. I'll give you a taste." Li Yan replied.

"Dried fish?" Wen Zhan frowned. "I often eat dried fish. There are many carnivorous fish outside the city. I'm tired of eating them."

"My fish is different. Why don't I bake it for you myself?" Li Yan asked repeatedly.

"No need." Wen Zhan shook his head, "Since your Taka tribe wants to bring people back from me, you have to pass my test."

"What test?" Li Yanlian asked.
