No one would think that Xia Shang was kind and have more sympathy for him because of such words, but more people would think that these words were just a bargaining chip used by foreigners to gain sympathy.
Because the Miao people had seen this trick many times from foreigners, after listening to Xia Shang's words, there was not much movement in the crowd. Instead, it attracted ridicule from Miao Yong.
"Do you think this will make us merciful? Foreigners should not use such despicable means to win our sympathy."
"Grand Chief, since everyone has the same opinion, please make a decision as soon as possible."
The hesitation on the patriarch's face flashed away, and then he showed cruelty: "Shoot him to death with random arrows!"
"etc!"
As soon as the patriarch finished speaking, a clear female voice suddenly came from the crowd.
This voice was very clear among the crowd, but it seemed strange.
In such an occasion, Miao women do not have much say, so the number of women present is very limited, except for Miao Keke, who is a big witch.
Obviously, the voice just now did not belong to one of these two people.
Everyone was stunned and looked around, wondering who was talking just now.
"I have something to say!"
It’s the same voice just now!
This time, everyone found the owner of the voice.
She turned out to be a mute girl tied to a stake!
The mute woman actually spoke?
Xia Shang opened his mouth in surprise. Everything was forgotten and he kept looking at the mute girl with doubts in his eyes.
There was not much surprise among the Miao people, but when they heard the mute woman speak, there was a lot of anger among the Miao people.
The mute woman's words mean nothing else. This proves that the mute woman deceived them, and it shows that there is something wrong with these two people!
Miao Yong sneered and pointed at the mute woman: "Look! This is a foreigner! We always thought this woman was mute, but we didn't expect that she could actually speak. Isn't this a common trick used by foreigners? Now, who among you is not?
Do you believe there is something wrong with these foreigners?”
Miao Keke was the most surprised. She stepped forward and pointed at Xia Shang: "You actually lied to me! She is not mute! What is your purpose?"
"I know the identity of the people who enter the Miao ethnic group!" the mute woman said in surprise.
At this moment, the mute woman seems to have put away her previous nervousness, and her words are unconventional and calm. Even in the face of such a dangerous situation, she does not seem to want to weaken her momentum.
This feeling is not something that an ordinary girl can have. Maybe this mute girl really has an extraordinary origin.
Before, Xia Shang had no doubts.
But now, Xia Shang suddenly understood after seeing the mute girl's behavior.
Her panic and timidity always seemed exaggerated and unnatural before, but it turned out that a third of her extreme fear was fake.
"These Han people are still trying to confuse people with their lies before they die! Brother, don't listen to their nonsense, kill them now!"
Taking advantage of the chaos, Miao Yong picked up his knife and prepared to take the risk and rush into the Gu pond.
Before the patriarch could react, Miao Yong's knife had already reached Xia Shang's chest.
The voodoo pond was not big. Miao Yong's feet were standing right on the edge of the voodoo pond, and the distance between his arm and the knife was just enough to pierce Xia Shang's heart.
Just as he was about to stab Xia Shang in the heart, a silver knife suddenly flew out of the darkness.
Just listen to a crisp sound.
The silver sword was bent to a ninety-degree angle by Miao Yong's scimitar, but the impact caused Miao Yong to lose his target and stabbed into the wooden stake that bound Xia Shang.
Miao Yong didn't lose his footing, so he fell headlong into the Gu pond.
This moment made Miao Yong's face turn pale. Raising the poisonous insects in the poisonous pond was no joke. Even with just a slight touch, some unknown poisonous insects might pour into his body.
Life is worse than death.
"You bastard! Can you please stop causing trouble?"
Behind Miao Yong, the patriarch cursed, grabbed Miao Yong by the back collar, and threw him behind him.
Miao Yong was in shock. He quickly stood up and shouted: "There is an ambush! Who is it? Are they an accomplice of these Han people?"
At the same time, a petite figure landed lightly on Xia Shang's shoulders, and his petite feet stepped on the wooden stakes that bound Xia Shang's shoulders.
"Alan!"
Miao Keke had sharp eyes and recognized him at a glance.
Or maybe Miao Keke had anticipated this scene, and she had already shouted out before anyone could see her clearly.
Xia Shang was also very surprised. Although Miao Keke said that A Lan would definitely appear at the critical moment, Xia Shang only believed that it was all true when he saw A Lan appear in front of him at the critical moment.
of.
Would this woman really go against her own people for a man she met by chance?
Xia Shang really did not believe that such a person would appear in the world.
He turned back and glanced at Alan, who was half-bowing, standing on the wooden stake and trying hard to maintain his balance, holding something unknown in his hand.
The current situation was tense enough, but Ah Lan didn't care. When he met Xia Shang's gaze, he smiled instead: "Brother Xia, I told you that the village will protect you when you come here."
Before Xia Shang could say anything, Miao Keke had already shouted: "Alan, are you crazy?"
This shout broke the calm. When everyone realized that the person who helped the foreigners was A Lan, the curses from the crowd came like a tide.
"This scourge!"
"How come this scourge is back?"
"Why does she have the nerve to come back?"
"A burden that betrays its people!"
"More than just a burden! Look at her now, she is actually helping foreigners!"
"It's expected. Hasn't this woman been fond of the outside world since she was a child? She thinks that our Miao people are a prison and everything in the outside world is the best! I have said long ago that this woman will become a disaster for the Miao people. Now it turns out that she has not
wrong!"
"I thought she would disappear after she left, but why is she still there?"
Various doubts came out, and the scene seemed even more intense than the previous denunciations of Xia and Shang.
Ah Lan is a Miao, but now she is helping foreigners. This is a taboo for any race.
The patriarch could no longer calm down. He stepped forward and pointed at A Lan: "What are you going to do? Don't forget, this is the Miao village! It's your home! We are your family! But what are you doing now?
Are you helping outsiders fight against us?"
"You are not allowed to hurt him!" Ah Lan said firmly, and she ignored other questions and doubts.
"No? Who do you think you are?" Miao Yong scolded, "I used to let you do random things in the village and talk nonsense, but now you have the audacity to act like this. Do you really think that the Miao people cannot kill the Miao people? Besides, your method,
Do you still deserve to be a Miao person?"
The patriarch said angrily at the same time: "Alan, you are a junior. But don't be too willful. Don't think that I, the patriarch, can tolerate everything you do!"
"The patriarch!" Miao Keke stepped forward in panic and stopped in front of the patriarch, "Alan was just confused for a moment!" (To be continued)
