Chapter 157: Promise yourself to save your life

"Oh, your wound has split." Lan Yuqing hurriedly pushed Shen Peifeng down to sit down.

"Chief, the witch doctor is here." Zhong Yi delivered the message at the door.

"Enter."

An old woman in black ethnic dress walked in. She had a head full of white hair but not many wrinkles on her skin. She looked energetic and her eyes were bright.

"Why are you bleeding again? Sit down quickly." The old witch doctor walked to the bed, swiftly removed the gauze on Shen Peifeng's head, took out a small bottle from his sleeve, opened it, sprinkled medicine powder, took out a roll of new gauze, and wrapped it around Shen Peifeng's head again.

"Be careful next time. If you turn into a fool again, our tribe leader won't want you." The old witch doctor said fiercely.

Lan Yuqing frowned, her face darkened, and she said in a sharp voice: "Grandma Lei, he is my future man, you have to respect him as much as you respect me, understand?!"

"Yes, Chief. I overstepped my authority!" The old witch doctor clasped his hands together and bowed towards Lan Yuqing.

"Go down!" Lan Yuqing waved her hand.

"Yes."

The old witch doctor went out and closed the door gently.

Lan Yuqing's expression softened. She walked to the bed, helped Shen Peifeng lie down, and said softly, "With me here, no one dares to bully you."

If Shen Peifeng wanted to go back, he needed to learn more about this mysterious nation, so he asked, "Comrade Lan Yuqing, how come you became the chief of the tribe when you are so young?"

"We She ethnic group have four major surnames. Pan ranks first, my surname Lan ranks second, followed by Lei and Zhong."

Lan Yuqing also wanted to get closer to Shen Peifeng, so she naturally told him everything she knew. "There is no one with the surname Pan in Jingxi, so the surname Lan is the most common. The She people love the phoenix, and women have a higher status than men. My mother was the clan leader, and she passed the throne to my elder sister. After my elder sister passed away, I became the clan leader."

"By the way, I am my mother's daughter, twenty years younger than my sister. Originally, the position of clan leader was supposed to be given to my sister's daughter, Lan Jiaojiao. She is three years older than me, but unfortunately she is not stable in character and cannot be the clan leader, so I have to take over."

Lan Yuqing is twenty-one years old this year. She always appears mature, steady and serious in front of her tribe members, but in front of the man of her choice, she can be herself and is very cute and lovely.

"By the way, what's your name? How old are you?" Lan Yuqing frowned slightly as if she remembered something. "I haven't asked you if you have a wife yet? If you already have a wife, we can't get married."

The She people led by Lan Yuqing live in Jingxi Mountain, on the edge of a cliff. There is no school in the tribe and it is almost isolated from the outside world. In order to produce high-quality offspring, the tribe leader will choose a educated man from outside to marry into the clan.

Lan Yuqing's first and second husbands were both educated and handsome men she found from outside.

In order to enjoy the honor given to him by the clan leader, the first husband concealed the fact that he had a wife. The secret was not revealed until shortly after Lan Yuqing's mother gave birth to her first daughter, the man's original wife came in.

The She people worked together to beat the man up and then threw him to his original wife.

She women disdain to share men with other women, let alone snatch men.

Later, when Lan Yuqing's mother was looking for her second husband, she conducted a thorough investigation before bringing him into Jingxi.

"Do you have a wife?" Lan Yuqing looked nervous, staring at Shen Peifeng and asked again.

This was the most handsome man she had ever seen, and he smelled good too. Lan Yuqing really wanted to marry him, have children, and live with him forever.

"I'm not married." Shen Peifeng didn't lie.

"That's great. We will hold the wedding when you recover from your injury. I will ask the elders to prepare for it. I will definitely give you the most grand and beautiful wedding in the history of the She ethnic group." Lan Yuqing raised her chin and said proudly.

The She ethnic group’s patriarchy is hereditary, and the throne is passed down to daughters rather than sons. Daughters take their mother’s surname, and sons take their father’s surname.

Lan Yuqing's ancestors have been clan leaders for generations, and they have to lead the She people to resist foreign enemies and maintain stability. The clan leaders are supported by the clan members, and the wealth accumulated over generations is not as rich as a country, but there are also many good things.

"What's your name?" Lan Yuqing asked. After talking for so long, she still didn't know his name.

"My name is Shen Peifeng."

"The name means 'Feng', which suits my Yuqing very well." Lan Yuqing smiled, revealing a cute little fang.

"The wind blew away the dark clouds, so the sky cleared after the rain. So, we are a perfect match. It must be the phoenix that sent you to me."

The more Lan Yuqing looked at the elegant and handsome Shen Peifeng, the more she liked him. She ethnic girl is very forthright. If she likes someone, she will say it out loud and express it directly.

With a smack, Lan Yuqing kissed Shen Peifeng on the face.

"You," Shen Peifeng was kissed by a lesbian for the first time. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do and stared blankly at the culprit.

"Haha, you're so cute." Lan Yuqing put her hands on her hips and laughed, "I stamped your approval. You're mine."

"I, I," Shen Peifeng didn't know what to say. In the field of mathematics, he was a genius, but when it came to feelings, Shen Peifeng was a blank slate.

"Just rest and recover these few days. Tell me what you want to eat and I'll ask them to make it. If you want to eat something delicious outside, I can also ask someone to buy it for you."

The She ethnic group in Jingxi Mountain is not completely isolated from the outside world. There are special people who are responsible for selling the tribe's herbs and handicrafts, and also buying some things that the She ethnic group does not have.

"My parents are still alive, and I must get their consent to get married." Shen Peifeng said suddenly.

"Of course, I'll just go out with you. When your injury is healed, I'll bring the betrothal gifts." In the She ethnic group, women have a high status and it is always the women who marry the groom.

Shen Peifeng was stunned for a moment. He knew that his parents would never agree to him being a live-in son-in-law, but he didn't say it directly. He just said, "I disappeared suddenly. If I don't go back soon, my family will definitely be worried. Maybe they are still trying to fish for me in the sea. Can you let me go back and report that I'm safe first?"

"What if you go out and never come back?" Lan Yuqing pouted.

"No, I should repay you for saving my life with my body. If you don't believe me, you can go out with me." Shen Peifeng said. Based on his observation, Lan Yuqing should never have left the She ethnic group. She couldn't be an enemy spy. There would be no problem in taking her back to the military compound.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Lan Yuqing was indeed naive. In the She ethnic group, she had seen how her mother and sister managed the tribe members. She had no problem being the tribe leader in Jingxi, but she didn't have too many guards in her heart. She thought Shen Peifeng looked like a good person, so naturally she believed everything he said.

"Then let's go now." Shen Peifeng stood up impatiently.

"But your injury hasn't healed yet." Lan Yuqing stopped him.

"My sister-in-law is a miracle doctor. She will be able to cure me as soon as possible after we go back. I just have a headache and some body aches, but I can walk." Shen Peifeng stood up and tried to take a few steps.

Fortunately, my legs were not injured when I was washed by the sea water, and I had no problem walking.

"But you are still very weak." Lan Yuqing hesitated.

"Comrade Lan Yuqing, I also want to bring you back and introduce you to my family as soon as possible. I'm 23 years old this year, and my family has urged me to get married. I was always very busy and didn't have time to date."

"Now that you are willing to spend your life with me, and you saved my life, I will definitely not let you down. However, for emotional and rational reasons, I have to let my family know about your existence."

Shen Peifeng was telling the truth, he loved mathematics the most and had never thought about love between a man and a woman. Dong Wushuang had introduced him to several people before, but Shen Peifeng declined all of them because he was busy with work.

After meeting Lan Yuqing today, Shen Peifeng had the idea for the first time that he wanted to spend his life with someone.

Maybe it was to repay the life-saving favor, or maybe he simply thought Lan Yuqing was pretty, or maybe he liked her cheerful and innocent personality.

But no matter what, Shen Peifeng wants to marry Lan Yuqing and has even been thinking about the name of their future child.

"Really?" Lan Yuqing tilted her head and asked, "Are you really willing to introduce me to your family?"

Lan Yuqing remembered that her father had never taken her mother and herself back home. When she was a child, her father once said to her when he was teaching her to read and write that his family thought it was a shame for him to marry the chief of the She ethnic group. When he agreed to marry her mother, he had already cut off ties with his family.

"Will your family accept me?" Lan Yuqing asked.

"Yes, my parents are very open-minded." Shen Peifeng said. There is no concept of equal status in his family. As long as the two people get along well, it's enough.

Besides, every member of the Shen family is capable and there is no need to expand the family through marriage.

"Okay, then I'll ask the witch doctor to prepare the medicine, and I'll have someone prepare the carriage." Lan Yuqing felt relieved, and went out with a smile on her face to tell the tribesmen to prepare the carriage.

Half an hour later, everything was ready. Lan Yuqing asked Shen Peifeng to drink the medicinal porridge before taking his hand and getting into the carriage together.

"This is tiger skin, which my mother hunted. It will be softer when you lie on it." Lan Yuqing pointed at the thick blanket on the carriage.

Shen Peifeng didn't know how long it would take to reach Huanyu Island, so he didn't try to be brave and just lay down.

Lan Yuqing drove the carriage alone, walked out of a wooden bridge, and after leaving Jingxi, she turned around and asked Shen Peifeng: "Afeng, where is your home?"

"Huanyu Island." Shen Peifeng replied. When he was in the village, Shen Peifeng was afraid that there might be eavesdroppers on the other side of the wall, so he never told the address.

"I know. It's not far from here. It takes two hours. My niece often goes out to buy things and has been to Huanyu Island. She told me the route and I know how to get there."

"Afeng, lie down, I'm going to speed up."

"Yeah." Shen Peifeng lay on the tiger skin, holding a piece of wood on the carriage to prevent himself from falling off due to the bumps.

Lan Yuqing raised her whip. Before she could utter the word "Gee", a carriage appeared in front of her. The girl driving the carriage looked at Lan Yuqing and shouted proudly, "Aunt, I found a man. He is strong and can read."

Lan Yuqing stopped the carriage, and Lan Jiaojiao also stopped the carriage and shouted to the people inside: "Li Jian, come out and meet my aunt."
