…
This night--
Laughter and cheerful voices filled the stilted houses on this side of the mountain.
It's been a long time since we've all been this happy.
It was late at night--
With fewer households using electricity in the Miao village, the voltage is sufficient.
With sufficient voltage, the lights in Ah Chen's stilted house were even brighter.
The news of Ah Chen's return also spread that night.
The Miao people in the nearby villages are overjoyed.
Ah Chen finally returned home just before dawn.
"Ah Chen, drink a bowl of goose soup before you go to sleep--"
The mother-in-law brought over a fragrant bowl of goose soup and reminded Ah Chen to be careful, as it was hot.
"Thank you, Mother!!"
Ten minutes later--
Ah Chen stumbled and fell to the third floor, not even knowing when he had fallen asleep.
But this was the most restful sleep he had ever had.
I have a home, I have my mother--
That's right, my wife isn't home.
A drunken Ah Chen had a dream.
In my dream, --
There are just too many scenes.
All the scenes--
Both are beautiful Miao areas, picturesque as a painting.
But then, the scene in the dream suddenly changed!
It was a terrible sight.
A torrential rain that lasted for three months.
Landslides have submerged several Miao villages and caused riverbank embankments to collapse.
Countless fields were submerged.
Tens of thousands of Miao people suffered heavy losses in this catastrophic flood.
Ah Chen was heartbroken.
The saintess vomited blood on the spot.
"King Miao!!"
"Achen--"
In the dream, Ah Chen was very helpless.
In the flood--
Countless Miao people are calling out to him, seemingly placing all their hopes on him as the future Miao king.
The scene shifts to a group of people using their bodies to block a breach in the dam.
The scene was magnificent!
However, the scene shifts again, revealing an extreme shortage of supplies.
And so on.
Finally, many, many Miao people were swept away by the flood.
The aunties and grandmothers were also submerged.
The nine clan elders were also buried by the landslide.
The three girls, Amo, Aling, and Ayun, were directing operations on the front lines when they were swept away by the flood while trying to save themselves.
“Amo Aling--”
Ah Chen woke up with a start from this point in his dream.
He sat up abruptly.
At this moment, he--
His expression was blank, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat.
Duoduo, who happened to come in to get something, was startled to see her brother suddenly sit up.
Especially when I hear my brother calling out my sister-in-law's name or someone else's name.
"Brother, are you dreaming?"
Duoduo ran over.
It was this shout that startled Ah Chen awake.
Ah Chen looked around and, realizing it was indeed a dream, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But this dream felt so real.
He gestured to Duoduo, saying it was alright.
Then I glanced out the window; the sun was blazing, it was already noon.
He picked up his phone, first contacted Amo, and then dialed Xiangxi Aling's number.
"Achen--"
"Ah Ling, how are things over there?"
"Everything is fine here. The things you arranged are progressing step by step."
Ah Ling didn't expect Ah Chen to ask this question right away. Even though she could tell that Ah Chen's voice was off, she still told Ah Chen the situation immediately.
Finally, he asked:
"Ah Chen, what's wrong?"
"It's alright. I'm glad everything's alright over there!"
"Don't worry, if we do encounter the things you mentioned, we're making arrangements."
Ah Ling asked with concern, "How is your injury now?"
"Everything is completely healed!"
...
In the room, Duoduo was finding Miao clothes for her brother while her keen little ears were perked up—
seem--
Whose pleasant voice is that on the other end of the phone?
Ah Ling?
Isn't this the spirit girl from western Hunan that my sister-in-law was talking about?
Um--
It's normal for her brother to contact her.
Duoduo's little brain started working quickly.
moment-
After Ah Chen hung up the phone -
This little girl actually imitated Amo, putting her hands behind her back and smiling as she looked at Achen, who was about to get out of bed.
Then, he shook his head and went out.
This scene left Ah Chen somewhat stunned.
I thought to myself, "This little flower is being naughty."
Soon, he changed into Miao clothing, specifically the clothing of the Black Miao people.
Standard accessories: Miao sword at the waist, plain silver ring, silver bracelet.
Once you're dressed, go downstairs!
downstairs-
Yang Ahu, Tang Abao, Gu Axiong, Bai Ashi, Ayong, Azhen, and Akang, the seven members of the Eight Jackals, were all present.
"Ah Chen, we thought you were going to sleep a little longer."
The most excited ones were probably Ah Yong and Ah Zhen.
Because they hadn't seen Ah Chen for a longer period of time.
And over there on the other side, there were quite a few Miao men and women.
Especially those who didn't see Ah Chen last night, all of them came over.
Ah Chen squatted by the pool, washing his face with ice water.
now--
The sun was blazing overhead, and the sky was blue with white clouds.
On this side of the mountaintop, a light mist shrouded everything, making everything so beautiful.
Even the air after winter sets in, though crisp and cold, smells sweet.
Fruity aroma!!!
The aunties all greeted Ah Chen.
It seems that only when they see Ah Chen around can their hearts find true peace.
Ah Chen chatted with the aunties while washing up.
Not long after--
He asked Duoduo to go find her mother-in-law.
In the back room, Ah Chen took a box out of the trunk.
After opening it, I handed it to my mother-in-law.
"Mother, give it a try--"
