When that voice came, Man Man's eyes suddenly shone.
Her pair of large eyes suddenly turned into a pair of burning rubies, letting out a sizzling, raging red flame, that people couldn't even look straight at them. Man Man's tiny face immediately brightened up. Her pair of eyebrows waved excitedly like a pair of strong flood dragons.
"Bride snatch … Bride snatch …"
Man Man grinned, squeezing her eyes into a pair of curved lines. Raging fire spurted out from her eyes, even twisting the air in front of her face.
"Bride snatch?" Yemo Shanye looked at Man Man confusedly and asked, "What is bride snatch? Why bride snatch? Man Man … Why are you so excited? "
"That, that, that!" Man Man excitedly slapped on Yemo Shanye's buttocks, rubbed her palms hard, and began explaining some special customs of Southern Wasteland clans in a low voice!
In different sized Southern Wasteland clans, there was a custom of bride snatching!
To be honest, girls living in the Southern Wasteland were all muscular women, who had thick arms and thighs. Their fists were strong, and their arms were strong enough to run horses. Girls like Qing Fu, Ji Hao's mother, who was as pretty and beautiful as Qing Fu.
Southern Wasteland warriors, especially those powerful elite warriors, were rude and straightforward. They followed the most primitive law of the jungle — If my fist is bigger, the best hunting ground is mine; if my fist is bigger, the most delicious prey will be mine; if my fist is bigger, the most beautiful woman will be mine!
Therefore, since a long time ago, large Southern Wasteland clans had developed a special wedding custom — bride snatching!
When the famous beauties of the surrounding tribes got married, there would always be groups of elites from different tribes, bringing their brothers and clansmen to the wedding day.
They would beat the bridegroom up so badly that he couldn't even take care of himself. Then, they would compare their strength with each other. The one with the biggest fist and the strongest fist would be able to bring the beauty home and let her bear his children!
This was the most primitive and bloody version of the wedding custom of 'bride snatching'. Nowadays, 'bride snatching' had gradually evolved into some special 'face-saving kungfu'. When the daughters of those big clans were getting married, if there were not enough outstanding young men leading a large number of clansmen to snatch the bride, then no matter the clan of the bride or the clan of her husband, everyone would feel ashamed!
If a powerful warrior could defeat countless elites who came to kidnap the bride and successfully bring the bride back to his tribe, it would be a great honor for him.
The more people there were, the more it proved how outstanding the girl they fancied was.
The more young men he defeated, the more he could show off his power and the power of his clan.
"I thought that Uncle Wen Ming and sister Tushan wouldn't be kidnapped by anyone." Man Man yelled excitedly, "After all, this is Midland, this is Pu Ban City. The customs here might be different from our Southern Wasteland!"
Man Man giggled. She was so excited that her long hair even fluttered in the air. Wisps of fiery light spurted out from the roots of her hair, and soon, her hair turned glowing red. A terrifyingly great heat rose from her head, making her tiny head look like a torch, ceaselessly letting out a zhang-tall flame.
Yemo Shanye took a few steps aside, seeming to be a bit embarrassed and angry. She looked at Man Man and asked in a low voice, "Eh? If you marry Earl Yao in the future? "
Man Man narrowed her eyes, seriously nodded and said, "So, Abba told me that before Ji Hao is powerful enough, he won't let me marry him. Abba has already given the order that when Man Man marries Ji Hao, each of the top one thousand clans in Southern Wasteland should send out a hundred of their most outstanding young men to kidnap the bride. Otherwise, Abba would lose face! "
Yemo Shanye widely opened her mouth, staring at Man Man in shock. A long while later, she murmured to herself, "Lord Ji Hao … is so miserable!"
She then slapped her own chest hard. She used a great amount of strength, that even made her own chest let out a series of thumping noises, as if she was beating a drum. She raised her head and said excitedly, "I knew that someone would kidnap the bride. So, according to the Southern Wasteland rules, I've already arranged everything! Hehe, go, go, go, go watch the show. I want to see who on earth will kidnap the bride! "
Man Man and Yemo Shanye's voices weren't low. Therefore, everyone sitting in the hall heard their words clearly.
Emperor Shun's face twitched, then he laughed embarrassedly and said, "Hehe, Zhu Rong's son-in-law, hehe!"
Emperor Shun seemed to feel that he was gloating over Si Wen Ming's misfortune, which wasn't very appropriate for a human emperor. Therefore, Emperor Shun raised his sleeve and wiped his mouth corners.
Si Xi's face was darkened. Today was the wedding day of Si Wen Ming and Tushan Princess, and also an important ceremony of the marriage between You Chong Clan and Tushan Family. But someone suddenly showed up and messed things up …
This wasn't Southern Wasteland. There was no custom of kidnapping the bride in this world. Therefore, someone who did this in Pu Ban City could only be doing it on purpose.
Si Xi threw an unfriendly glance at Tushan old man, then glanced at Tushan Princess.
Tushan old man raised his right hand with a dark look, slowly straightened it into the shape of a blade, then swung down and said, "This little girl of mine has been spoiled since she was little. Tens of maids always follow her around. Wen Ming, when she marries you, you can't spoil her too much. Managing the family, raising children, these are her responsibilities. When she needs to be beaten, she will be beaten, and when she needs to be scolded, she will be scolded! "
Hearing this, Si Xi's face instantly turned much better.
That glance of his was a bit weird. He was wondering if Tushan Princess had some bad personal morals, which caused her lover to come to her.
Tushan old man's words were smart. Tushan Princess had been followed by tens of maids all the time since she was little. Without a doubt, Tushan Princess would never do anything that would bring shame to her family.
Looking at Tushan old man's hands, Si Xi laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, it seems that someone is playing a joke on me, Si Xi. In this case … "
Before Si Xi finished, Man Man's proud and arrogant shout could already be heard from a distance away.
"Eh? Don't you know the rules? If you want to kidnap the bride, you'll have to pass the few tests set by Lady Man Man first! "
"According to the rules of our Southern Wasteland, if you want to kidnap the bride, you have to get drunk first. Lady Man Man, this wine is soaked with 'drunken dragon grass', 'bewitching fruit', 'soft bone flower', 'blood-breaking vine', and the other ninety-nine kinds of herbs. A single cup of this wine can make an ordinary human being drunk to death! "
"Come, Yu Mu, you take the lead. Kill the few of them first!"
Outside the gate of Tushan Palace, Yi Tian angrily looked at Man Man, who had been blocking his way. Behind Yi Tian, nearly ten-thousand Eastern Wasteland archers slightly lowered their upper bodies, holding their longbows, seeming ready to launch an attack at any moment.
"Little girl, get out of my way!"
Looking at Man Man, Shaosi, Yemo Shanye, Yu Mu and the others who had been blocking his way, Yi Tian gave a cold shout and pushed towards Man Man's shoulder.
