What kind of girl would travel to another world?

In the previous chapter, Qi Xinyang, Xiaojiao, and Youke were visiting a half-elf tribe in the mountains. What surprised Qi Xinyang was that the tribe was actually called "Hidden Mountain Sect", which was the name of a martial arts sect.

At this moment, Qi Xinyang had also agreed with the chief of this tribe that they would stay in the tribe for a while and learn the local fighting techniques. Finally, they agreed to use a "wolf fang" as tuition.

Ding Lei kept his head down and didn't dare to speak. He was thinking that the chief collected too much tuition and felt that the chief was a little cruel.

When Youke and Xiaojiao heard that the chief only wanted one "wolf fang", they thought to themselves: Chief, you are a very nice person.

Later, the chief saw that the "Xiao Ye" that You Ke was carrying looked a little strange, so he stood up and walked over to check it out. He asked You Ke, "What is this you are carrying?" As he spoke, he pointed at "Xiao Ye".

You Ke answered the chief and said, "Oh, this is a wild beast we found in the wild, and it was tamed by my sister. I just don't know what kind of beast it is." After that, he touched "Xiao Ye's" head.

Qi Xinyang was also puzzled and asked the chief, "This beast is ugly, but is there anything wrong with it?"

The chief replied to Qi Xinyang, "No, no, no, this is not a wild beast." Then he asked Qi Xinyang, "Where did you find it?" As he spoke, he carefully observed "Xiao Ye".

Qi Xinyang replied to the chief, "This was found in the wilds of Stylas Odin. We are from that country." Then she looked at Xiaoye and wondered, "It's not a wild beast, nor a monster. So what is it?"

The chief said to Qi Xinyang, "Oh—very good. Many of our people are in that country." After that, he sat back down, poured a glass of water and drank it. Then, he began to fall into deep thought, and no one else knew what he was thinking.

The little rascal also stood up and poured water for others while saying to the chief: "Chief, there are quite a lot of our fellow tribesmen in Grilanchi."

Ding Lei said to the little rascal, "Stilas Odin is closer, so more people go there. In the past, many people who went to Grilanchi went to join the army, and it was only later that the number of immigrants gradually increased. Compared to them, the two countries are really different."

Qi Xinyang asked Ding Lei, "The country you mentioned called 'Grilanchi' also has many half-demons, right?" After saying that, she looked at You Ke.

Ding Lei said to Qi Xinyang, "Grilanchi is a very special country. Although the king and nobles are all high humans, I heard that it is very open to people other than high humans. It is also close to the elves' forest, and there are no monsters or dungeons in the entire country. This is a bit like our place, where we also have no monsters or dungeons. There are also many rumors. I heard that the first king was half-elf, but it sounds fake. In the entire continent, not to mention there is no half-elf king, there is not even a single noble who is half-elf." After speaking, he took a sip of water.

Qi Xinyang asked You Ke, "You Ke, aren't you from that country? Tell me! What's going on with your king?" After saying that, she kept looking at You Ke.

You Ke replied to Qi Xinyang, "Sister, I haven't heard of this. As far as I can remember, the king has been a member of the Gaoren tribe, and I heard he was quite tall."

Xiaojiao immediately pulled Youke and said to Qi Xinyang, "Big sister, aren't you going to Grilanchi later? Just go and take a look for yourself then." Since Qi Xinyang was very sensitive to the topic of height, he was afraid that Youke would say too much about height.

The chief asked Qi Xinyang, "Oh, are you going to Grilanchi later instead of returning to Stilas Odin?" After saying that, he touched his beard.

Qi Xinyang replied to the chief, "Yes! I don't plan to go back. I don't like the king of Stilas Odin. It would be nice to go to other countries and see what other kings look like." After that, she took a sip of water.

The chief said to Qi Xinyang, "Oh, I see... By the way, you brought horses with you, right? Our tribe doesn't provide fodder. You have to figure out what the horses will eat. There are also food and lodging expenses, which will be calculated separately. It depends on how long you stay." After saying that, he also took a sip of water.

Seeing that the chief started asking for money again, Ding Lei and Xiao Huatou could hardly bear to watch it anymore and decided to stop watching.

The little rascal said to the chief, "Chief, I'll go and continue sweeping the floor." After that, he stood up and was about to go out.

When Ding Lei saw that the little rascal was the first to raise his head, he immediately said to the chief, "Chief, I'll go out and watch first." After saying that, he also stood up and was about to leave.

The chief immediately stopped Ding Lei and said, "Wait, Ding Lei! Stay for a moment." Then, he said to the little rascal, "Little rascal! Take them around to familiarize themselves with the place. Later, I'll have someone arrange food and lodging for them." After that, he turned to Qi Xinyang and said, "Let's stop talking here today. You guys go get familiar with the little rascal first. By the way, what are your names?" Only then did he remember to ask for names.

Just like that, after Qi Xinyang and his group introduced themselves, they followed the little rascal out.

After they all left, Ding Lei asked the chief, "Chief, are you planning to arrange expensive food and lodging for them?"

The chief replied to Ding Lei with a serious face, "What nonsense are you talking about? We are honest here!"

Ding Lei said to the chief in embarrassment: "Ah... but it seems that we have never taken in foreigners. Other tribes are also..."

The chief said, "Oh, didn't I just tell you the reason? All the tribes here teach fighting skills that are easy for half-elves to master. All tribes find it troublesome to teach and are unwilling to accept outsiders. This is normal. As for the money, there is nothing we can do about it. Since no one has accepted outsiders before, who knows how much tuition outsiders should pay. We don't know how long it will take outsiders to learn our fighting skills. This is also the first time we try, so we will not suffer any loss if we charge more." After that, he started drinking water again.

Ding Lei didn't dare to refute the chief, and could only think to himself, "That's too much. This is too unfair. Food and lodging have to be charged separately..."

After a while, the chief said again: "Oh, come to think of it. Recently, there are fewer and fewer fellow tribesmen coming to our tribe to learn combat skills. Those who came before should at least come back to review every few years. I'll send a pigeon to send a message and ask someone to find out what's going on. Our fees are almost the same as those of other tribes, so why is no one coming?" Having said that, he took another sip of water.

After thinking about it, Ding Lei said to the chief, "Oh... maybe we will have to accept more foreigners in the future. I will send a pigeon to deliver the message now." After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.

When the chief saw Ding Lei was about to leave, he immediately stopped him and said, "Wait, come back! We haven't finished talking yet."

Ding Lei heard that the chief had something else to do, so he came back and asked the chief, "What else is there, Chief?" After that, he sat down again.

The chief said to Ding Lei, "I just saw that the beast they brought is no ordinary beast. It's a bit like that strange beast with a certain name. Oh, I can't remember the name, but it can predict a good harvest! Oh, by the way, the information sent back by the people of Stilas Odin before said that there are several new settlements there, right?"

Ding Lei said to the chief, "Hey! Yes, yes, yes! Chief, you have a really good memory." He was simply flattering him.

The chief said to Ding Lei, "Nonsense, I'm not old. Eh? Could it be that because there are more settlements, there are not so many people joining the army..."

Ding Lei looked as if he had suddenly understood something and said to the chief, "Oh, Chief, that makes sense. No wonder fewer people come here. It must be because there are more opportunities to make money at Stilas Odin."

At this moment, the two of them had analyzed the reason and knew why fewer and fewer people came to learn combat skills.

The chief said to Ding Lei, "Well... hurry up and notify those who have left our tribe and have nothing to do at the moment to go to Stilas Otin to farm! By the way, does Stilas Otin still have land for rent?" He stroked his beard as he spoke.

Ding Lei said to the chief, "Then we have to send a pigeon to ask." After saying that, he also took a sip of water.

The chief said to Ding Lei, "After the girl and her group leave, take the hundreds of people on our mountain to go farming together. This year's Stilas Odin will definitely have a bumper harvest! What should we plant in the summer... Hurry up, this is very important! Go and release a pigeon to deliver a message!" After saying that, he urged Ding Lei.

Ding Lei was also very happy after hearing this, and replied to the chief: "Oh oh oh! This is very critical. If it succeeds, we can store more food. I will go and release a pigeon to deliver the message!" After that, he hurried out to release a pigeon to deliver the message.

The chief was also in the room, thinking about things alone.

Speaking of Qi Xinyang, after they walked out of the big house, they kept following the little rascal.

Bound Foot led the horse "Ben Lei" and asked the little rascal, "Is there a stable here?" He felt that there was no need to lead the horse around the yard like this.

The little rascal told Xiaojiao, "There is a stable here, just outside the backyard. I don't know who used it before. Anyway, I have never seen any horses there. The stable looks abandoned. I will take you to see it, let's go." After that, he continued to walk in front to lead the way.

After Qi Xinyang and his group followed the little rascal out of the side door, they walked along the outer wall and finally came to a very messy place.

After Qi Xinyang saw it, he said to Xiaojiao, "Xiaojiao, this is child's play for you."

Xiaojiao said to Qi Xinyang, "Big sister, this place looks okay. It won't take long to clean it up. Just tie Benlei here first, and I'll come back later."

You Ke asked the little rascal, "There's such a big area behind here. I thought there was a cliff behind it."

The little rascal replied to You Ke, "Yes, this place is quite big. It's just that the population of the tribe has not increased much, so there is no need to expand it. And expansion would cost a lot of money, so there is no need to expand it."

When they were done chatting, the horses were left outside the backyard wall, in a rambling place called "the stables."

The group of people who came directly to the backyard from the back door immediately felt the breath of life. There were more than a dozen half-elf elders gathered in the middle of the yard, washing clothes and doing various housework together.

The little rascal said to Qi Xinyang and the others, "This is the backyard. It doesn't seem as big as the courtyard in front because there are too many rooms here, so it takes up a lot of space. The people who do the housework here are the elders in the tribe. They don't participate in daily training and defense." He spoke as he walked.

You Ke said to the little rascal, "There are not many elderly people in your tribe..."

The little rascal explained to You Ke, "As long as there are family members or relatives living outside, the elderly will follow them to live outside. The tribe really can't afford to support too many elderly people, and the overall population of the tribe has always been small. I heard that the outside world is getting better and better, and many people prefer to go there."

Little Foot said to Little Slippery, "I've heard of that, too. A dozen years ago, we still had to worry about thieves blocking the road. Monsters still appear sometimes, but without the bandits robbing everywhere, things are definitely much better. As long as you avoid places with dungeons, it's generally safe, and there's no war."

Qi Xinyang asked the little rascal, "Do we also live in this backyard?" As she spoke, she looked around.

The little rascal replied to Qi Xinyang, "No, you live in the main courtyard. The backyard is for people with families to live in long-term. There are two large rooms in the main courtyard, and they are all surrounded by large bunk beds (many beds connected together). One room is for women, and the other room is for men."

After hearing this, Xiaojiao reminded Qi Xinyang, "Big sister, we live separately."

The little rascal said to them, "You can live together if you want. The women's room is currently empty. The men's room isn't occupied much either, with few tribe members visiting lately. The people you see in the compound are mostly long-term residents of the tribe."

Qi Xinyang thought to herself, "Oh, most of them are residents here..." Thinking of this, she pointed to a large household appliance that looked like some kind of mechanism and asked the little rascal, "Who invented this? It has such a strange shape, it feels magical..."

The little rascal said to Qi Xinyang, "Isn't it amazing? The one in the compound is even more complicated."

Qi Xinyang was stunned and thought to himself, "I've never seen such a complicated 'mechanism' in Stylas Odin..."

The little rascal said to them, "Okay! Now that we've looked at the backyard, let's go back to the main yard." After that, he walked to the front to lead the way.

Just like that, Qi Xinyang and the others followed the little rascal out of the backyard to see a more complicated "mechanism".
