Amo, standing beside her, watched with a smile.
Siwei Amei and the jackals also had smiles on their faces.
Even though Mr. and Mrs. Meng don't fully understand Miao and Buyi languages, the atmosphere at this moment filled them with a strong sense of pride.
Especially seeing Ah Chen chatting and laughing with the Miao girls, and witnessing firsthand the care and concern the Miao people showed for Ah Chen—
Not only were Teacher Meng and his wife happy, but even the Buyi people were delighted.
And the Buyi girl who led Achen earlier, she was already dumbfounded.
Because she never dreamed that the person who had just spoken to her was actually the supreme future Miao King of the Miao family.
Furthermore, the future Miao king even called her "sister"!
How proud you must be!
moment--
Ah Chen broke free from the girls' encirclement and headed towards Chief Wei of the Buyi village.
"Chief Wei."
"Future Miao King."
Chief Wei dared not call Achen by his name lightly, but instead addressed him with the respectful title of the Miao people.
To everyone's surprise, Ah Chen held Chief Wei's calloused hands and said with a smile, "Although we are not of the same ethnicity, the Miao and Buyi people have been as close as brothers since ancient times."
"For thousands of years, our two clans have never been separated; we are not blood brothers, but closer than blood brothers."
"I hope this friendship and loyalty can continue forever!"
"We all uphold the legacy of our ancestors, supporting and helping each other."
"If Chief Wei doesn't mind, please call me 'Achen'!"
Ah Chen is the future Miao King, a high-ranking figure in the Miao region. He holds the power to mobilize nearly a million people across the Miao territory, yet he—
Since their arrival, they have never looked down on the Buyi tribe with arrogance; every word and action they have taken has been respectful.
This sentiment is of paramount importance to the Buyi tribe.
Because the Miao people are the strongest.
The future Miao King can completely ignore them.
But in the future, the Miao King not only did not treat him with respect, but also treated him with courtesy!
At that moment, in the Buyi tribe, Ah Chen's words were relayed to everyone within just a few minutes.
after--
The Buyi tribe, along with the young men who were arriving one after another, collectively paid the highest tribute to the future Miao king.
Chief Wei was already in tears. He held Achen's hand tightly and said, "I will obey Achen's orders and never forget the last wishes of our ancestors! We will help and support each other with the Miao people."
Ah Chen nodded, holding onto Chief Wei with one hand and their Miao village chief on this side with the other.
"Today is rushed, but I remember you, and the sons and daughters of this land!"
"Two chieftains, is there enough food?"
food?
When Chief Wei and Chief Achen of the Miao tribe heard this question, they exchanged a glance.
They wanted to say it wasn't enough, but they couldn't bring themselves to say it.
Ah Chen took in their gazes but didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he walked into the rice paddy, glanced at the variety and quality of the rice, and got a general idea of what was going on.
Then he turned around and asked, "Not enough, right?"
"Ah Chen, don't worry about it."
"Are you still keeping things from me? Have you all heard about the rice paddy experiments in Que Dong Village and Hei Wu Village?"
"I heard, Ah Chen, did you really succeed?"
Achen nodded, "Not only did it succeed, but the yield also far exceeded my previous expectations! So the next step is to fully implement it in all branches, and strive to ensure that every village can plant the rice varieties cultivated by our Miao people, so that no village will lack food."
"So you guys should keep in touch with the village elders and make sure you don't miss the next arrangement."
After Ah Chen finished giving his instructions, the Miao village chief immediately asked, "Ah Chen, are you leaving?"
"I have other things to do."
"But you...you and the Holy Maiden just arrived!"
“Yes, it’s rare for you and the Holy Maiden to come here, so why don’t you stay a couple more days?” Chief Wei also urged them to stay.
The young men from the nearby villages, whether Miao or Buyi, were all trying to persuade them to stay.
Looking at the pleading faces around him, Achen sighed heavily and said, "I still need to go to Luoyang Ancient Village. As for the raft, let's prepare it here."
"Next time the Holy Maiden and I come, it shouldn't be so rushed."
As soon as Achen finished speaking, Amo came over and immediately ordered the Miao people to prepare rafts.
Although the Miao people were reluctant, they could not disobey the Holy Maiden's order and immediately went to thoroughly inspect the existing rafts.
When the Miao grandmother learned that Achen and his group were going to Luoyang Ancient Village, she selected the best grass ghost girl in the village to lead the way, since there were many forks in the river.
The old women knew that the Holy Maiden's secret arts were unparalleled, and Siwei was the best among them, but now that Achen and the Holy Maiden had come here, the grass ghosts here had to shoulder their responsibilities.
As for the Buyi tribe, although they did not know what the future Miao king and holy maiden were going to do in Luoyang Ancient Village, they immediately selected a group of the strongest young men to join the escort team.
This scene, witnessed by Meng Ci and his wife, evoked another sigh in their hearts.
This is Ah Chen and the Holy Maiden. If it were them, they wouldn't even be able to get into the village here, let alone go to Luoyang Ancient Village.
"Oh, right, Ah Chen."
Chief Buyiwei seemed to have thought of something, and invited Achen and Amo aside, asking in a low voice, "Is there something going on in Luoyang Ancient Village today? Could it be that you and the Holy Maiden came here because of this?"
"What is Chief Wei referring to?"
"Luoyang Ancient Village, orphan Luo Yao."
Luo Yao?
It seems that Teacher Meng's youngest son is dating someone surnamed Luo.
Ah Chen glanced at Ah Mo and said to Chief Wei, "Continue."
"The young lady Luo Yao was engaged, but while studying away from home, she had an affair with a man from another tribe and became pregnant."
"Such heinous behavior has seriously violated morality, ruined reputation, and brought shame to the entire village and the Buyi people."
"Therefore, the village elders decided that at 5 PM today, they would publicly drown Luo Yao in the pond; and the man who had a secret rendezvous with her and impregnated her would be cut off and thrown into the sinkhole."
Upon hearing this, Ah Chen frowned.
"The hour of You (5-7 PM)? That's between 5 and 7 PM! Mo, is that enough time?"
Amo calculated the time, "If there are no delays on the road, I can barely make it! But--"
"Chief Wei, has this matter been thoroughly investigated?"
"That's all we've found out. As for whether there's anything else going on with Miss Luo Yao, we don't know! But no matter what, she can't do something so immoral; and that foreign man who ruined her reputation should be killed."
Upon hearing this, Amo fell silent.
Ah Chen thought that if what Chief Wei said was true, then this matter was really troublesome, and saving people would probably not be so simple.
"Ah Chen, if I may be so bold as to ask, did you really come here for this matter?"
Achen nodded, and Chief Wei's expression immediately changed.
Clearly, this matter concerns the reputation and face of the Buyi tribe, and given Luo Yao's status, such a thing should not have happened.
If this can be forgiven, then wouldn't the centuries-old reputation of Luoyang Ancient Village be completely ruined?
But---
If the future Miao king intervenes in this matter, will all the Buyi tribes really turn against the entire Miao family and become enemies?
