Xiaobai rolled his eyes at Ye Chao again and asked: "You don't really have a kind heart and want to solve the trouble for the Miao people, do you?"
Ye Chao nodded, took out a handkerchief and wiped the little sparrow's head covered with greasy rice grains while saying: "What they are plotting is probably the Miao people's sacred weapon. You should know how terrifying the resurrected beast god will be. I don't like it."
Troublesome."
Xiaobai nodded and said, "Then let's go."
Jin Ping'er also looked at Ye Chao. From her current perspective, no matter what Ye Chao did, she would follow him unconditionally.
…
Qilidong is far away from Tianshui Village. If you have to walk, young and middle-aged people need to walk for three hours without stopping. This is when the weather is good. When the weather is bad and the mountain roads are slippery, it takes four hours to get there.
Not bad.
Of course, these are nothing to Ye Chao and the others. After all, the cultivators, Yu Wu Fei, avoided the winding mountain road and listened to Xiao Bai's very casual command. An hour later, several people saw
That huge village is located in a beautiful mountain.
Qilidong is very prosperous. From the outside, it looks like a city in the Central Plains. On the road in the village, you can see Miao boys carrying firewood or Miao girls carrying water at the foot of the mountain.
"This is Qilidong for sure, and it will never be wrong again."
Ye Chao, who was carrying the donkey, looked at Xiao Bai, who was holding Ping'er's waist, and said helplessly: "If you make another mistake this time, I will never believe you again. I would rather believe what the mountain people say."
"After all, I haven't been back here for three hundred years, so it's understandable that the slave's memory is a little skewed."
After finding an uninhabited land, the three of them piloted the magic weapon and landed on the ground.
Although the five ethnic groups in Southern Xinjiang originally share the same origin, due to the limited survival resources in Southern Xinjiang, internal fighting often occurs among these ethnic groups. Just like in Qilidong today, Miao warriors with swords can be seen at any time along the way.
However, for some unknown reason, those people did not stop Ye Chao and his group after seeing them, but instead smiled.
Jin Ping'er looked at Xiaobai with confusion and asked, "Sister Xiaobai, aren't these Miao people always xenophobic? Why didn't they stop us when they saw us coming here?"
After Ping'er asked this question, Xiaobai seemed to think of some happy past events, and couldn't help but laugh like a knight.
"Of course it's because the three of us are naturally beautiful. No one will be wary of us."
Are the three of us naturally beautiful?
Jin Ping'er looked at Ye Chao, who looked depressed, thinking that he seemed to be a natural beauty in a dress.
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a Miao sword and accompanied by two guards was already walking in front of several people.
Now, Ye Chao's group of people are still dressed in Han attire, and their temperament doesn't look like that of Miao people, so when they speak, they don't use the difficult Miao language, but speak in Chinese with a weird accent.
talk.
"I am the clan leader of Qilidong. I wonder why these distinguished guests are here?"
The current situation is the same as when Ye Chao knew about the Demon Cult's invasion of Qingyun Sect ten years ago but did not tell Daoxuan. Without any basis, he told the head of the human family that someone would attack your Qilidong tonight, and would also snatch the sacred artifacts of your Miao people.
, it would be strange not to be kicked out like this.
"We came to visit southern Xinjiang. It's almost dusk now. I wonder if we can stay overnight in your place?"
The clan leader knew that Ye Chao and his party were not simple. After all, they could reach Qilidong from the Central Plains unscathed. Naturally, his original intention was not to get into trouble, but he was also afraid of offending Ye Chao and the others.
After a long time, the clan leader nodded and said to Ye Chao: "Okay, then you all come with me."
Following the clan leader, several people came to a courtyard made of bamboo. Along the way, the clan leader also introduced Qili Cave. For example, the house made of bricks and earth on the mountainside is the clan leader's residence. The three stone pillars on the top of the mountain.
It is an altar to worship the Miao dog god.
This villa is just a little higher than the patriarch's residence. You can see the entrance of the village and the patriarch's house when you look down, and you can just see the three stone pillars when you look up.
After the patriarch left, Xiaobai looked around like a curious baby. Both Ye Chao and Jin Ping'er knew that the time they spent together would not be too long, so they cherished the time together.
The little sparrow was mercilessly thrown from Ye Chao's arms onto Da Hei's back and pointed at Ye Chao with its wings in dissatisfaction. Da Hei looked at the setting sun proudly. As long as it was dark, he would not have to
Being a donkey.
Night came soon, because the old patriarch sent someone to bring a sumptuous meal, so Ye Chao did not show off his cooking skills that were far inferior to Zhang Xiaofan. He finished eating quickly and took a chair to sit on.
We walked in front of the Zhuyuan gate and drank while looking at the entrance of Qilidong.
After a long time, Jin Ping'er also moved a chair and sat down. She naturally lay on Ye Chao's shoulders. Looking at the lights rising in Qilidong, her eyes were filled with longing and she said: "Ye Wushae, I've thought about it."
I think, if I were not the leader of the Hehuan sect and you were not the genius of the Qingyun sect, we would be living here freely like the Miao people. I would weave and carry water, and you would hunt and chop firewood, and we would grow old slowly like that.
, no matter who dies first, we will cry for the other person, isn’t that good?”
"I really hate the daily intrigues and intrigues in the Holy Church."
Ye Chao brushed off a bamboo leaf that fell on Jin Ping'er's hair and said: "Actually, I have never had great ideals. I have never had any ambitions to crush your holy religion or make Qingyun Sect prosper forever. So, you
Wait for me, wait for me to break through to Taiqing, then there will be no rules in this world that can bind you and me. When the time comes, I will go to Xiaoyaojian to pick you up."
"I'm waiting for you."
Little Sparrow and Dahei looked at the two people sitting on the chairs carefully, wondering why Ye Chao, who was usually not gentle at all, could be so gentle.
…
…
This is a truth when the moon is dark and the wind is high, because it is difficult to find people on a moonless night. If there is wind, it can well cover up the sound of footsteps caused by the movement of the crowd.
When there was no light in Qilidong, a mountain wind suddenly blew, and Dahei's ears stood up. It waggled its tail and walked up to Ye Chao, barking twice.
"Master Ye, it seems that your donkey is quite useful. Is your spiritual sense even more sensitive than yours in the late Shangqing Dynasty?"
Dahei glared at Xiaobai, his eyes that always seemed to have a cunning light in them were filled with anger at the moment. Hei had expressed that he didn't like people calling him a donkey.
