Wu Kun's death caused quite a stir in the Wu Miao community, but it soon died down.
It's simple, no one would fight for a dead man.
Moreover, Wu Kun ignored the whole matter. He assassinated a fellow clan member, and according to Miao law, he was executed.
Wu Kun's daughter Wu Liang was even more of a heartless woman. When her father died, not only did she not feel sad, but she felt that she was no longer controlled by anyone and was finally free.
Early in the morning, Chen Yang came to wake Guan Xiyue up.
Guan Zheng, who came over at the same time, saw embarrassment on his face when he saw Chen Yang.
In the middle of the night last night, Chen Yang and Guan Xiyue went out together. He saw it. What happened between them was unknown.
But in Guan Zheng's heart, he actually hoped that Chen Yang and Guan Xiyue would be together.
After Guan Xiyue got up and washed up, her face was full of smiles, as if she had not experienced an assassination last night, but had spent a wonderful night.
As soon as she went out, she took Chen Yang's arm and said softly: "I want to go again tonight."
When he heard this, Guan Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was over, his daughter had fallen just once, and she had fallen. And she was fighting outside, wouldn't she be afraid of being discovered? Alas, if she was seen by others, her whole family's
Where to put your face?
Looking at Guan Zheng's expression, Chen Yang knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly said to Guan Xiyue: "No problem, there should be fireflies tonight!"
firefly.
Hearing this, Guan Zheng was relieved. It turned out that these two little guys went to see the fireflies last night.
Indeed, at the cliff behind the Miao tribe, the deep valley is full of fireflies.
Those fireflies don't even leave the deep valley. Looking at it at night, the dense fluorescence is like a Milky Way falling underground, which is very beautiful.
After Chen Yang took Guan Xiyue to see it last night, she couldn't forget it. The scene was not only beautiful, but also very romantic. She liked the feeling of watching it with Chen Yang.
"Xi Yue, Chen Yang, let's go to the venue."
Guan Zheng greeted him, and Chen Yang and Guan Xiyue followed him to the central square of Wumiao.
Today is the first day and the first round of selecting the holy witches.
This round is very simple. From the candidate holy witches, the three most beloved by the Miao and Miao people will be selected by voting to enter the second round.
The selection of holy witches is the most grand event in the entire Miao tribe. The venue has already been arranged. The Miao king and all the elders will attend, as well as the ten major tribes and the elders from other tribes.
Before it officially started, the entire Miao tribe was already dancing excitedly.
As for Wu Kun's death, it was originally worth talking about, but it was covered up by today's grand event and no one cared about it.
When all the important people arrived, seeing that the auspicious moment had arrived, King Miao gave an order for all tribal representatives and the Miao and Miao people to start voting.
The way to vote is very simple. The Holy Witch candidates stand in a row, and there is a box in front of each person to put their ballots.
The ballot papers were given by the Wu Miao elders and were made from a very thin bamboo stick. From a distance, there was nothing special about it, but up close, you could see that each bamboo stick had numbers and carved patterns on it.
Everyone voted for the Holy Witch candidate they recognized. The whole process lasted for more than an hour before the votes were cast.
Chen Yang didn't care about this matter at first, but what he didn't expect was that although the votes had not been counted yet, there was a long queue in front of Guan Xiyue and there were many people voting.
If so, wouldn't she advance to the second round?
This is what Chen Yang doesn't want to see. In his heart, he hopes that Guan Xiyue will lose the election and then follow him back to the courtyard.
Being a holy witch in Wu Miao is not necessarily very happy.
Guan Xiyue and Chen Yang had the same idea. She originally thought she was just joining in the fun, but when she saw more and more bamboo sticks in her box, her smiling expression suddenly turned into confusion.
After the votes were tallied, what was even more unexpected was that Guan Xiyue's vote actually reached the first place.
"Guan Xiyue, Guan Xiyue..."
"That's great, Guan Xiyue, you are the holy witch in our hearts."
Those who supported Guan Xiyue immediately cheered.
But they didn't know that Guan Xiyue was complaining in her heart.
Seeing such a situation, King Miao, Yu Mao, Guan Zheng and others all smiled with relief.
"Today's selection ends here. The top three are Guan Xiyue, Zhang Xue, and Hou Moyi. These three will enter tomorrow's selection process."
After King Miao made the announcement, everyone left in an atmosphere of celebration.
Guan Xiyue came to Chen Yang and said with a mournful face: "What should I do? If I become a holy witch, wouldn't I have to raise those terrible Gu insects and learn some psychic blood scriptures?"
Chen Yang comforted him: "Don't worry, the holy witch is a goddess, and you are just the girl next door at most, not a goddess."
"It's not temperament that has the final say, it's God who has the final say."
At this time, King Miao came over and interrupted.
Guan Xiyue asked: "King Miao, I want to know what the second round of natural selection means?"
King Miao said: "The Heavenly Selection, as the name suggests, means that the decision is made by God. It's very simple. When the time comes, you and the other two candidates will receive the induction from the wizard stone. Whoever has the highest induction level will become a saint.
Witch."
Guan Xiyue frowned and said: "Witch Stone? Even a stone can sense it. Does it work? This is the age of science. We can't believe this kind of thing. We have to talk..."
"Xiyue!"
Guan Zheng gave Guan Xiyue a blank look, and Guan Xiyue closed her mouth in dismay.
"Whether it works or not, we will know tomorrow." King Miao smiled mysteriously, turned and left.
Guan Zhengdao: "Xiyue, how can you say that Wu Miao's natural selection is unscientific? This has been passed down for thousands of years and is more scientific than science."
Guan Xiyue pursed her lips: "If you choose someone else, it's scientific; if you choose me, it's not scientific."
Seeing this, Guan Zheng had a headache and said to Chen Yang: "Please advise Xiyue. The holy witch is sacred, and her thoughts and actions are wrong."
Chen Yang shrugged and said with a smile: "Whether the holy witch is holy or not, what does it have to do with her? She is just a little nurse."
Upon hearing this, Guan Zheng was speechless. Then he realized that his daughter and Chen Yang were in the same trench. He had found the wrong teammate.
Guan Xiyue pulled Chen Yang, made a face to her father, and said, "Let's go, Chen Yang, let's go see the fireflies."
Chen Yang smiled, waved to Guan Zheng, and left with Guan Xiyue.
As for who the Holy Witches are, it's none of my business.
…
The next day, after Guan Zheng urged her again and again, Guan Xiyue reluctantly got up from the bed and went to the venue for the selection of the holy witches.
Today's Wumiao people are even more enthusiastic than yesterday.
Because after today, the holy witch that Wu Miao has been missing for a long time will be born again, and Wu Miao and the entire Miao tribe will have faith again.
