Hutao uses me to judge my performance

"This is the "Introduction Guide to Qiuqiu Language". You should read it first."

After saying that, she ran to the bookshelf to get other books. After a while, there were several more books on Jiang Bai's table.

"Read these books first, and then ask me if you don't understand them."

Ella didn't know much about how to teach people, so she could only let him read the book first. After he finished reading the book, maybe he could go outside to find the Qiuqiu camp and learn in practice.

"Because of the low intelligence of the Qiuqiu people, they have no writing and the language they use is very simple. There is no so-called grammar in our language. Although it is not clear why the Qiuqiu people all over the world have the same language, but as long as If you memorize some common words, you can understand most of what they want to express."

Listening to Ella's words, Jiang Bai nodded slightly.

"You don't need to learn something so complicated. I just want to know what the strange intonations of the Qiuqiu people mean."

What he said was not a lie, he just left out the part of wanting to communicate with the Qiuqiu people.

Jiang Bai glanced at Kaiya who had not left yet. Kaiya obviously wanted to find out what he wanted to do by learning Qiuqiu language.

He was a little speechless. They were so familiar with each other, but this guy still didn't have much trust in him.

It really hurts my good brother’s heart!

Seeing Jiang Bai entering the study, Kaiya did not stay long and quietly left the library.

He was just a little curious about what Jiang Bai wanted to do by learning Qiuqiu language, but it was not a very important thing.

It's not that he doesn't trust Jiang Bai, he has gotten along with Jiang Bai a lot, and he thinks he still understands Jiang Bai somewhat.

It has become his instinct to remain vigilant and suspicious of everything.

He had no choice but to survive and he didn't want to.

Chapter 325 Do the Qiuqiu people also have faith?

Jiang Bai spent an afternoon briefly reading these books and asked Ella Musk a lot of questions.

"This book mentions the Qiuqiu people's beliefs. Do the Qiuqiu people also have beliefs?"

"Yes." Ella replied affirmatively.

"Most Qiuqiu people worship a god they call Uun. We have not studied where this god came from, what miracles he performed, and how he appeared. The belief in this god seems to have originated from Their origins are etched in their bones.”

"Uun?" Jiang Bai repeated the word.

I seem to have heard those Qiuqiu people shout this when I was in the snowy mountains, but I don’t think I have.

Although his memory is okay, he really can't remember a certain word.

"But there are exceptions." Ella said again.

"Exception? Are there any Qiuqiu people who don't worship Uun?"

Jiang Bai knew very little about the Qiuqiu people. Except for the group of Qiuqiu people in the snow mountain cave, other Qiuqiu people would immediately attack him when they saw him as a human being. Even if they didn't attack, they would just run away.

Moreover, the Qiuqiu people do not have such a thing as writing. Although they can draw totems, those paintings in the place where they live do not contain any information except for decorative and symbolic meanings. Even if there is any information in them, they do not He couldn't understand it, so he had no chance to understand it.

"Yes." Ella nodded and opened a page of the book. In the book was a rough topographic map.

"There are three groups of Qiuqiu people in the Dada Upa Valley, namely the Haoshui people, the Haorou people, and the Black Sun people. The Haorou people and the Haoshui people are just like their names. The Qiuqiu people in the group are different. They like to eat and sleep, but the Black Sun tribe is an exception.”

Ella turned to the next page. On the page was a picture drawn with a pen. The drawing was of something like an altar. The totem of the Black Sun was painted with paint on the tied cloth on the altar.

"This Black Sun tribe believes in Black Sun, and the Qiuqiu people among them are also the most ferocious and aggressive."

Black sun?Black sun?It feels a bit evil.

Jiang Bai looked out the window at the sunset that was about to set. This sun had nothing to do with black.

"Is there anything special about this black day?"

"I don't know." Ella Musk shook his head. "My grandma has been studying it for a long time. She only knows that this Black Sun tribe appeared 500 years ago. There are no other results."

Although they have mastered the language of the Qiuqiu people, they can only communicate briefly. Some of the questions that are too complex are simply impossible for the Qiuqiu people to answer.

"Okay." Jiang Bai did not ask any more questions, but changed to another question.

"What is the social form of the Qiuqiu people? Do they follow the principle of the weak and the strong?"

"Most of the Qiuqiu tribes I have observed follow the principle of law of the jungle. The strongest warriors have the highest status and can eat the most meat. When there is sufficient food, these powerful warriors often become large Qiuqiu tribes. , become the leader of the tribe.

"If these large Qiuqiu people evolve again, they will even become Qiuqiu kings. However, when Qiuqiu people evolve into Qiuqiu kings, Qiuqiu kings will leave the tribe and live alone."

"Will the king actually leave the tribe? This seems to be different from the normal ethnic characteristics." Jiang Bai held his chin in thought.

Take a wolf pack as an example. There will only be one wolf king in a wolf pack. When a new king appears and defeats the old king, the old king will leave the tribe and live alone until death.

The king of the Qiuqiu people actually left the group voluntarily. Is it because the king was afraid that he would eat too much and other weak Qiuqiu people would not be able to get food?

"Yes, Qiuqiu people are monsters, not normal animals. Although we can refer to the habits of animals in research, they are different after all."

Ella said, paused, "But it's not certain that the king will leave the tribe. After all, there are too many Qiuqiu tribes in Teyvat, and what we have studied is only a small part, so we can't be sure."

"What about Qiuqiu Shaman? How did this kind of Qiuqiu people form?" Jiang Bai thought of the old Qiuqiu Shaman in the cave who was very dignified in the tribe.

"There is no lifespan for Qiuqiu people, because we have not found out how long a normal Qiuqiu person can live. Our experimental samples were either killed, fell, drowned or starved to death, or were Evolved into the Daqiuqiu people. In short, we have not observed the complete life of a Qiuqiu person, and we cannot calculate how long the Qiuqiu people live."

Ella Musk shook his head and sighed. After all, the research on the Qiuqiu people is still too niche. Only members of his family in Mondstadt are doing this, and their family's population is not large enough to produce so many research results. It has been accumulated over several generations.

"Qiuqiu Shaman is the elderly Qiuqiu people among the Qiuqiu people. They often have elemental talents when they are young. When they enter old age, the corresponding elemental talents will reach their peak. When they lift a hand larger than their body With the staff, when you recite the incantation, you can seek help from the corresponding element."

"Although people say that the Qiuqiu people are just monsters, the Qiuqiu people actually have a very rich life. They can cook simple cooked food over fire, use slime to make explosive barrels, and sleep under trees after eating. Sing when you are in a good mood and dance together after a good harvest.

"They even learned how to raise meat and enclose territory in captivity. I feel that in the near future they will even learn to plant. After all, there are many fruit trees in the Dadaupa Valley."

Ella's expression was very complicated. Her family had studied the Qiuqiu people for so long, so it was impossible to say that she didn't have any special feelings for the Qiuqiu people.She would even think that if she learned the language of the Qiuqiu people and communicated with them, would humans and the Qiuqiu people not be hostile to each other?

Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the Qiuqiu people were classified as monsters and became the enemies of mankind.

Ella put away her complicated emotions and looked at Jiang Bai, "You should learn Qiuqiu language because you want to communicate with Qiuqiu people. I want to ask you to do me a favor."

"No problem." Jiang Bai agreed.

The little teacher handed him a lot of knowledge today, and he was still happy to help.

Ella took out a piece of paper with many words written in Qiuqiu language, "There are many Qiuqiu translations on this that are not very accurate. If possible, I would like to ask you to help me improve it."

After all, she is still young, is not the holder of the Eye of God, and has little fighting power. She cannot go to the wild to communicate with the Qiuqiu people, so she can only entrust this job to others.

Seeing that he was so busy, Jiang Bai readily accepted it.

When he left the library at night, he borrowed the "Qiuqiu Language Quick Reference Manual".

Such a short time was not enough for him to completely memorize Qiuqiu language, so he could only communicate while flipping through the book.

Chapter 326 Keli also wants to make friends with the Qiuqiu people!

After leaving the library, Jiang Bai went directly to the Deer Hunter Restaurant for dinner.

I haven't seen Keli for a long time. It's rare for me to come over and see her and Abedo.

Unfortunately, there was no convenient way to contact them, and he didn't know if they were at home, and the efficiency of writing letters was so slow that he had to come over by himself when the letter was delivered.

He ordered a sweet flower stuffed chicken, Mond grilled fish and honey sauce carrot fried pork. Jiang Bai ate the carrot fried pork and packed up the rest and took it to Keli's house.

He was lucky today, both Keli and Abedo were at home.

"Brother Jiang Bai!" Keli jumped up excitedly when she saw Jiang Bai.

Because it was night, she let her hair down and wore pajamas at home. There was no hat on her head, and the schoolbag she usually carried was put aside.

Jiang Bai touched the top of her soft hair, "Long time no see, did you miss me?"

"I have something to think about!" Keli's little head was pounding, "I really, really miss Brother Jiang Bai, and I really want to go fry fish with Brother Jiang Bai!"

Abedo's expression was a little helpless, "Kelly."

This kid likes either bombs or fried fish.

"Why did you come suddenly today? You didn't even write a letter to tell him in advance." Abedo took what Jiang Bai was carrying and looked at him curiously.

"You know, it's faster to write a letter in advance than it is for me to come directly." Jiang Bai spread his hands.

"By the way, can you make a tool that can communicate remotely? That way, even in Liyue, if I want to find you, I can contact you directly without having to make a trip."

Abedo shook his head directly, "No, I am just an alchemist. Besides, you may have some misunderstanding about alchemy."

Aunt Alice might be able to research and produce this kind of thing, but he is just an alchemist who is good at creating life, and is not good at it.

"Really? I see you're pretty good at making heaters, heating crystals, etc.?"

Jiang Bai felt that he had no misunderstanding about alchemy.

After all, taking some useless things and refining them into useful things was what Albedo had always shown him.

Abedo was a little tired, "That's just using elemental power to create some small tools that can guide elemental power. It's not alchemy."

Before he came to Mondstadt, the people of Mondstadt knew that alchemy was only used to piece together fragments of objects, only to save a little glue.

But in Jiang Bai's case, it became something out of nothing.

If he could create something out of nothing, he would probably have completed the project assigned to him by his master.

"All right."

Seeing Abedo saying no, Jiang Bai could only give up this plan.

For Teyvat to enter the era of fast communication, this requirement is still too high.

"I came here this time to learn the Qiuqiu language. I stopped by to visit you."

Jiang Bai opened the takeout box and took out the grilled fish and handed it to Keli, "This is the grilled fish from the Deer Hunter Restaurant!"

"Okay! Grilled fish!" Keli's eyes lit up.

"Kelly, we've already had dinner, don't eat too much."

"Okay~" Keli happily took the grilled fish and ate it slowly with small mouthfuls, the expression on her face was particularly happy.

Jiang Bai and Abedo shared a piece of Sweet Flower Stuffed Chicken. Although they had already had dinner, it was perfect for a midnight snack.

"Learning Qiuqiu language? Have you learned it yet?"

"Well, I plan to visit a Qiuqiu tribe I met in a snow-capped mountain cave. This tribe is a bit special."

Abedo became a little more interested, "Special? What's so special about it?"

"When I went there for the first time, they seemed to know me and showed no hostility towards me. Moreover, their social structure was very different from that of the Qiuqiu tribe outside. They even gave me gifts."

Jiang Bai took out the small mask given to him by Qiuqiu Shaman.

Although he didn't wear this little mask on his body, he kept the strap well.

"I actually gave him a gift." Abedo was even more surprised.

He took the mask and looked at it carefully. There was nothing special about this mask. It was just an ordinary mask carved from wood. Although the craftsmanship of making the mask was very rough, it was indeed made by the Qiuqiu people.

"Is it convenient for me to come with you?"

He became very interested in the Qiuqiu tribe that Jiang Bai mentioned.

Jiang Bai was a little hesitant, a little worried that the tribe would be affected, but after thinking about it, he agreed.

Abedo's character is relatively reliable, and Abedo often travels in the snowy mountains, so he will inevitably find that tribe. If anything happens to that tribe in the future, Abedo can take care of it.

"I originally planned to teleport there, but it seems I can only hurry on my way."

Jiang Bai felt a little regretful. Who would want to travel if he could teleport?

The clever Keli moved her ears and discovered something interesting.

She ran over and looked at them with her big round eyes.

"Where are you going? Keli is going too!"

Abedo suddenly felt a headache, "Keli, we have to do research, how about you just play at home? I'll ask Brother Kaiya to take you to fry fish tomorrow."

Keli was a little hesitant when she heard about the fried fish.

She wanted to fry fish and go out with them.

In the end, the idea of ​​hanging out with them took over.

You can go to fish fry anytime, but there are not many opportunities to hang out with brother Jiang Bai.

"No, Keli is going with you!"
