Appearing in front of Qin Yun were a dozen tough Miao people.
With burly figures and strong physiques, they held bow-backed swords and wore leather armor. They seemed completely unafraid of the cold winter. Their thighs, arms, and abdomen were basically exposed, and their bronzed skin was covered with specks of dirt.
The big man in the lead had a build like an iron tower, huge eyes, a broad nose, and a square face, but his angry look made people feel heartbroken.
He rushed in front of Qin Yun, completely ignoring Qin Yun's existence, and shouted loudly at the girl hiding behind: "You are getting more and more courageous, and the Wild Beast Canyon is also a place you can go? Do you know
Do you know that the whole village has been alarmed? When you get back, I will ask my father to lock you up until you get married next year!"
"What?"
Miao Xiu, who was originally very scared, immediately jumped out and screamed like a wild cat whose tail was stepped on: "I will not marry! If you let my father lock me up, then I will tell Sister Tong when I get back.
You bully me and tell her not to marry you!"
"You you you!"
The originally dark face of the big man turned purple. Miao Xiu's threat obviously hit his vital point. He said "you" for a long time but still couldn't come up with a reason. Instead, the Miao people who were following behind him secretly
Smirk.
"How am I doing?" Miao Xiu suddenly became proud, her little nose wrinkled and she raised her head.
The big man held it in for a long time and finally said something: "I'll settle the score with you when I get back!"
His eyes finally fell on Qin Yun, his eyes full of vigilance and displeasure: "outsider, why did you break into our forest farm in Miaosu Village? This is not the place you should stay.
place!"
Through the induction of breath, Qin Yun could tell that this big man had innate strength, but this did not mean that he would be afraid of him. He smiled and said: "If I remember correctly, this place should be several miles away from Miaosu Village.
Ten miles away, when did Wild Beast Canyon become the territory of Miaosu Village?"
The big man was immediately speechless!
There are many Miao people living in Shiwanda Mountain. Miao villages, large and small, have their own traditional territories and hunting forest farms, for the sake of mutual peace and tranquility. ( ) Territories and forest farms are strictly divided, and they must not be easily separated.
External expansion.
The Wild Beast Canyon area is one of the dangerous areas in Shiwanda Mountain and does not belong to any Miao village.
Qin Yun knew this all because he got a lot of useful information from that down-and-out warrior, and he also had a pretty accurate map in his hand.
When Qin Yun chooses a route, he is always careful to avoid the sphere of influence of the surrounding Miao villages.
"Brother!" Miao Xiu stared and said, "This Brother Qin went into the mountains to practice. If it weren't for him today, I'm afraid I would have died under the claws of the Black Nightmare Tiger. If I died, how would you explain to my father?
?It doesn’t matter if you don’t thank him, how can you still lie and deceive others!”
It was obviously the result of her trespassing into a dangerous area without permission, and what she said seemed to make sense. The big man's face turned purple and black, almost turning into the bottom of a pot.
Just when Qin Yun thought that he would become angry because of his shame, he suddenly wiped his head, stepped forward and saluted Qin Yun, and said angrily: "Outsider, I shouldn't have lied to you just now, thank you for saving me.
My sister, you are welcome to visit our Miaosu Village!"
Qin Yun was a little surprised and quickly returned the greeting: "You're welcome..."
Before he finished speaking, Miao Xiu beside him immediately jumped for joy: "Okay. Let's go back to the village together!"
Qin Yun originally planned to visit the Wild Beast Canyon. Since he encountered such a thing, he did not refuse the other party's invitation. After all, it is very beneficial to experience in the Shiwan Mountain and establish friendly relations with the local Miao people.
of.
And he also wanted to see the scenery of Miao Village.
Under the leadership of the big man, the group embarked on a journey back to the Miao village.*
On the way, Qin Yun learned that this big man's name was Miao Hu, who was Miao Xiu's eldest brother, the eldest son of Miao Haishan, the leader of the Miao Su village, and the number one warrior of the younger generation in the tribe!
Of course, this title was not given by Miao Hu himself, but what the accompanying Miao hunters told Qin Yun in a proud tone. If nothing unexpected happened, Miao Hu would be the future leader of the Miao Su village!
Miaosu Village has a population of nearly 100,000, and is one of the eight most powerful tribes in the Miaoshan territory. Miaoshan is the holy mountain and holy land of the Miao people, and it is also the place where the Miao king canonized by the Dayan Dynasty issued orders to millions of Miao people.
If the entire Shiwanda Mountain is regarded as a country, then Miaosu Village is equivalent to the princes and counties below.
Through conversations and exchanges, Qin Yun found that these Miao people, including Miao Hu, were more straightforward and simple in character. Miao Hu might have more knowledge, but there was no difference in their honest and honest nature.
He told Qin Yun bluntly that the Miao people did not like outsiders, especially those who went into the mountains to hunt and collect herbs. They were denounced as destroyers of the forest, and ordinary conflicts occurred from time to time.
White seedlings are better off and usually don't use extreme measures, but if they are black seedlings, once their taboos are violated, they will definitely fight to the death.
Miao Hu, like Miao Xiu, seemed to have never heard of the Tiancheng Sword Sect, so he had no reaction to Qin Yun's identity as a disciple of the Sword Sect, but Qin Yun could see a hint of Yueyue's challenge in his eyes.
If it weren't for the tiger fang in his backpack, Miao Hu still wouldn't believe that Qin Yun could injure the Black Nightmare Tiger.
Qin Yun also tried to ask some questions about Miao Gu, but neither Miao Hu nor Miao Xiu were willing to say more about his questions. They just told Qin Yun that not every Miao citizen could raise Gu.
Gu, outsiders have many misunderstandings about Miao Gu.
After trekking for a long time in the dense forest, climbing over mountains and ridges, wading across rivers, the group finally arrived at Miasu Village near dusk.
Miaosu Village is located in an open valley, with towering and steep peaks on both sides. The valley entrance is closed by a tall stone wall, with a huge village gate, a suspension bridge and a river meandering through the valley entrance.
It looks like a city hidden in the mountains!
Outside the valley is a rare piece of flat land, and almost all available land has been transformed into paddy fields. Countless fields and ravines extend to the slopes on both sides, with seedlings scattered among them.
Qin Yun had never seen such scenery before. The quiet valley was as beautiful as a paradise. The climate here was very warm. Wild flowers could be seen growing everywhere on the roadside, and lush crops were planted in the paddy fields.
Following the only road leading to the valley, Qin Yun followed Miao Hu and others into Miao Su Village.
Only when you enter inside can you see the difference between Miaosu Village and the real city.
The buildings here are all made of stones, built high and low along the rugged terrain. They are thick, solid, rough and simple. Strings of red peppers and chestnut bunches hanging on the stone walls are the most common decorations.
Both sides of the road were full of people living there. There were no shops, inns or taverns at all. A few black pigs ran past Qin Yun, followed by a few barefooted furry boys chasing after him.
The people walking on the road are all Miao people, including young and fierce warriors and hunters, beautiful and bold women, and skinny old men. Everyone has their own life trajectory, but they all look at the Miao Hu with curious eyes.
Qin Yun beside him.
Especially those Miao girls whose bodies are covered with silver ornaments are simply bold. They will cast a lustful look at Qin Yun, and then look at Qin Yun and burst into laughter like silver bells. No matter they are eldest girls or young wives, it is the same.
.
However, Qin Yun remembered the warning of the fallen warrior and did not look at these beautiful women.
Although Miao Hu is the eldest son of the tribe leader and the first warrior of the tribe, it is not clear how much respect they have for Miao Hu. Most of them greet him warmly, as if they are their own children.
Miao Hu seemed to see Qin Yun's doubts and said: "Our Miaosu village is different from you outsiders. We don't have so many flower arrangements. All the tribal Miao people are one family. The food, clothing, weapons and tools here are all made by
The elders of the tribe are responsible for distribution and ensuring that everyone has food and clothing, so there are no shops in the village!"
This is actually the case! Qin Yun couldn't help but asked curiously: "Then if you don't work, will you get something?"
Miao Hu glared at him and said disdainfully: "We Miao people don't have that kind of cowards! The only people who don't have to work are the elderly and children. If a man doesn't go mining and hunting to defend his homeland, then no woman will be willing to marry him, nor will he.
People will think highly of him!"
"If a woman is too lazy to eat, we will kick her out and let her fend for herself. So even my sister Miao Xiu has to learn weaving and medicine from her family!"
Miao Hu added: "Speaking of shops, your businessmen want to open shops in the village, but my father said that these businessmen will not bring prosperity and wealth, but will only corrupt people!"
"Some of our Miao people will run outside. They will quickly lose their minds and lose the honor of the tribe. In the end, very few will be able to come back, and most of them will never have any news again."
Qin Yun was silent. He couldn't tell whether the closure of Miao Village was good or bad. Maybe it was the best for them.
An open square-like place appeared in front of him, and a temple appeared in Qin Yun's sight. Its majestic layout had a completely different style from the buildings next to it.
Miao Hu proudly introduced: "This is the Nuwa Temple. Nuwa is the ancestral god of our Miao people. We worship her from generation to generation, and she will always protect the mountains and rivers of our Miao territory!"
Empress Nuwa!
Qin Yun's heart was suddenly shocked. His Qiankun Sky-Mending Stone was exactly the divine stone used by Empress Nuwa!
Speaking of which, Qin Yun has never seen the true appearance of this empress in any classics. He only knows that there are many legends about her, and many of them are absurd and ethereal... Thanks to Nine Heavens for Hegemony, brian,
Thank you Zhixiu and other friends for their tips! rq
