Chapter 536 - Peony Island Women are so powerful?"Although I am ranked, how many men will be able to survive three months? "At that time, the men were all skin and bones, and they were not pure either. According to the flower elder sister next door, they were like water, how could they get me pregnant!" Ah Ling was unhappy.
When Mu Jin, who was hiding inside, heard these words, he swallowed his saliva.
And every day? If one"s body was good, he would be able to hold on for a year. However, if one"s body was weak, he would probably not even be able to hold on for a few months.
"Ah Ling, don"t worry. Queen Peony will always bring back some men from the outside from time to time anyways. We are still young and in no rush, so there are many older people who are not pregnant yet!" Mei Yu pulled Ah Ling"s hand and said consolingly under the lamp.
As for those women who could not bear children, once they pa.s.sed the age of 26, they would no longer be allowed to gather essence, so there were many women who could not bear children. This was also the reason why the population of Peony Island was always at this number.
"But I still have a few years? "If I"m not twenty-six years old, I won"t be able to go to the temple, and I won"t have the chance to have a child!" Ah Ling was extremely dejected. She was four years older than Meiyu, and that meant she still had six more years.
But this year, even though she was ranked, she still didn"t have a chance to get pregnant.
"Alright, Sister Ah Ling, don"t think too much about it. Maybe after a while, the Queen will go out to sea and capture the strong ones again!" Beautiful Jade said again and again.
She had always been considering in her heart whether to tell Ah Ling about this matter. After all, if two men suddenly appeared out of nowhere and she gave Ah Ling one of them, she would also profit from this.
"Sigh... Meiyu, you did not make it this year, but you must work hard next year. If you are pregnant with a child, then we can grow up together, and I won"t be lonely anymore! " Ah Ling spoke a few words with Meiyu before he left.
However, before leaving, Ah Ling said depressingly: "Tell me, why do Queen Peony always get pregnant, and the few Imperial Advisors beside her have already given birth to several, we can"t even have one child!"
"Since the Queen has captured those people, the Imperial Advisors will definitely test them one by one and send them to the Queen for her to enjoy for a bit. After that, it will be our turn!" Meiyu said with some dissatisfaction.
"Really? "No wonder the queens were born one after the other. This is already the third child!" Ah Ling said somewhat angrily.
"Of course it"s true. You forgot that my grandmother was once a servant of the Queen. This rule has been pa.s.sed on for so many years, so she must have picked some able-bodied men to give to the Queen first. Maybe the Queen even hid a lot of strong men!" As Meiyu said this, she also felt angry.
However, thinking about it, there were two men hidden in her room. Although one of them was a bit younger than the other, he was still a lot better than the last one, not to mention he was in his prime.
Hahahaha... She was going to live the life of a queen.
The more Ah Ling listened, the angrier she got, but there was nothing she could do about her being the Queen!
Looking at Mu Jin, her oval face had a pleased smile on it: "What do you think, if you were to be captured by the Queen, you will definitely have to serve the Queen day and night. When the Queen doesn"t have to wait on you, I will send you to the temple, in any case, no matter how strong the man is, he will be as thin as a skeleton in three months, and before he dies, if you want to live, you can only choose to follow me!"
"Any strong man can become like this in three months? Are all the women in your Peony Island so powerful? " Mu Jin lowered his eyes and said.
"It"s not that we are strong, but rather that we have a larger number of people. Every day, there are ten women who go to harvest the essence. The men who started out were very happy, but after half a month, they couldn"t hold it in any longer and could only reduce the number of people." Meiyu said calmly.
But when Mu Jin heard it, he raised his head in shock. Ten per day? Even a wolf, tiger, and leopard could not withstand this!
"Why is the lifespan of you men so low? I heard the old man say that once a man has been picked by a woman, his lifespan will be greatly reduced. As men, you all are quite pitiful! " The beautiful jade was beginning to be unable to bear it.
After all, Mu Jin was so good-looking, he would definitely be very sad if he died.
The corner of Mu Jin"s mouth twitched uncontrollably. It was not that men lived less than women, but that these men died because of you guys.
"If your queen can capture men from the outside, why didn"t she bring you out of Peony Island? You must know that there are a lot of men outside, you don"t have to go to the temple to gather essence before you can have children! " Mu Jin said truthfully.
"No, the Peony Island is our root, if we leave the Peony Island, we will die!" Hearing Mu Jin"s words, the beautiful jade immediately rejected resolutely.
"Who told you that? Your Queen Peony? " Mu Jin said with a cold smile.
As expected, the people on the Peony Island lived a primitive life, even their thoughts were stuck on the primitive.
"We are different from you, we can only live in the Peony Island, once we leave the Peony Island, we will die. There were already a few who did not listen to the Old Ancestor"s words, but in the end they all died, not a single one of them returned!" Meiyu was exceptionally determined.
However, Mu Jin said coldly: "They haven"t returned, it"s because they don"t want to return. The outside world is much more interesting than your Peony Island, it"s filled with men. The men there all marry two or three women instead of three or four who share a man!"
Hearing Mu Jin"s words, Mei Yu"s heart was a little moved, but no matter how moved he was, it would still change her deep-rooted thoughts.
"Impossible, there was once a woman who left the Peony Island. When she returned, she was already completely injured and only had her last breath!" Meiyu retorted.
Mu Jin could not help but raise his eyes and glance at the beautiful jade in front of his, "You are all dressed like this as you left the Peony Island, and if any of the citizens of the four nations saw you like this, they would treat you like this, because our thoughts have yet to be opened to a woman who can appear in public wearing such revealing clothes. The women of our country, however, are extremely concerned with these festivals, other than exposing her hands and neck, the rest of her body can only be shown to her husband.
Mu Jin spoke honestly. Any woman who dressed like this and appeared on the streets would be cursed, or even angered!
