…
One hour later--
Mu Achen and the others also set off, but in the opposite direction from Mi Aling and the others.
The Jiu Miao River is nearly 400 kilometers long. From Tongmuling, it is about 300 kilometers to western Hunan, and about 100 kilometers to Jiuyou Ancient Village, which is under construction in eastern Guizhou.
Ah Chen, who had already boarded the raft, was naturally accompanied by Ah Mo.
On either side were several large jackals and the female guards.
As for the elders of the major clans, the Miao soldiers, and the Black Miao and White Miao grandmothers, they would have to wait until they cleared the way for the treasure that the Miao army was escorting.
After all, there are many insects around the Jiu Miao River, and it won't work without the old witch and the grass ghost girls accompanying them.
On the way back to the deep mountains along the Jiu Miao River, Achen's eyes were truly opened.
Putting aside the various insects visible in the surrounding area, let's just talk about the scenery—
The water in the river was emerald green, clear to the bottom.
On both sides of the river, towering peaks create a stunning landscape.
Along the way, Achen also saw many streams, all of which originated from the Jiu Miao River.
When we passed through a large canyon, there were several huge waterfalls, and the water flow was truly spectacular.
Amo kept introducing things to Achen, after all, she knew the deep mountains much better than Achen did.
As they were about to exit the canyon, Amo pointed to the largest tributary to the left and said to Achen, "Go down from here for about thirty kilometers, and it will join the Qingque River. Then go another ten kilometers to the left and you'll exit the canyon over Quedongzhai and Heiwuzhai."
"But if you go to the right, you'll go to Jiuyou Ancient Village. You'll circle around the Starry Sky Fruit Forest, and then flow into the Qingque River from the other side, which leads directly to the Qingmiao area."
Along the way, Achen and his companions saw many Miao villages, but they were very small, basically consisting of a dozen or twenty households living together.
Fortunately, the Miao people living deep in the mountains manage and dredge the Jiu Miao River regularly; otherwise, it would have become a dead river long ago due to blockage over the past few centuries.
"Amo, when we have the means, let's get a few speedboats to play on. Just imagine how awesome it would be, nestled deep in the mountains and rivers of our Miao region."
Speedboat?
Amo never expected that Achen would have such a thought!
She glanced at Ah Chen's lustful expression, thought for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
"good!"
"I'll order it for you when the time is right!"
“In the deep mountains of our Miao region, the main rivers are wide and deep enough to drive speedboats, but we need to clear the weeds! But it’s okay, we can do all of that.”
As long as Amo is happy, that's all that matters.
Anyway, it's rare for her little prince to enjoy doing something relaxing, and she's overjoyed, so why would she possibly stop him!
Soon, when they reached the fork in the river, Amo asked Achen whether they wanted to go to the Starry Sky Fruit Forest or the Starry Dew Fruit Forest.
When she heard Ah Chen say "go home," she knew where Ah Chen meant by "home."
So they took the left side of the river branch.
Two hours later--
Finally emerging from the Jiu Miao River, just as it was about to merge with the Qing Que River.
There's a section here, on both sides of the riverbank --
The bamboo and trees are lush, and the scenery is extremely beautiful!
Among the flowers blooming all over the mountains, most are purple bamboo.
As the bamboo shadows sway in the wind, several ancient Miao houses occasionally peek out from the gaps.
"Purple Seedling?"
Ah Chen turned his head to the side, focusing the light on something.
This place is truly beautiful! The Miao girls of the Purple Miao branch really know how to choose.
But Amo said, "This is not the real Zi Miao. This is just one of their tribes outside. It's the place we mentioned when you met Duoduo Ada (Grandma) last time."
Forehead--
It was quite surprising to Achen that such a serene and beautiful place was not the actual base of the Zi Miao tribe.
If even one tribe of the Zi Miao is this beautiful, then their homeland must be incredibly enchanting.
The key point is that this location is already at the boundary between the deep mountains and the outer mountains. It seems that Zi Miao's choice of this location indicates that she has always harbored resentment towards the outside world.
However, the fact that they agreed to come out is still a good start.
After all, Ah Chen couldn't see how many households Zi Miao had moved out, but Duo Duo's Ada probably wouldn't breach the contract.
He had promised to relocate 300 households of Zi Miao people, and he would come to see them when Mu Achen was not busy. Even one less household would be an excuse for him to take action against the Zi Miao.
However--
As Ah Chen and his companions on the raft were about to meet the Qingque River, Tang Abao suddenly exclaimed from behind, "Hey... is that Duoduo?"
"Duoduo? Where is she?"
"Over there, on the riverbank to our left and in front, there are many flowers, and a few Miao men and women with her."
"Achen, not over there, look this way." Amo saw it and noticed that Achen was looking in the opposite direction, so she reminded him.
really--
Following the direction Ah Mo pointed, Ah Chen indeed saw Duo Duo in the direction of the flower bed.
At this moment, Duoduo seemed unaware that her brother would come from this direction, and was busy playing with her little purple petals.
The key point is that, under her control, Xiao Zi is fighting against more than a dozen highly venomous black snakes, each as thick as an adult's arm.
This little girl is having a blast.
"Duoduo, is someone here?"
The girl next to her seemed to see a dozen or so rafts passing by the sea of flowers in the river, and hurriedly reminded Duoduo to keep a close watch on the little purple raft and not let it splash around.
Duoduo, who was practicing the advanced secret techniques of Zi Miao, controlled Xiao Zi to fight against the giant snakes while looking in the direction her elder sister had pointed out.
But when she turned her head to the side, her little purple snake actually poisoned those dozen or so large snakes to death.
"Oh dear, I haven't had enough fun yet, and it's already over?"
Duoduo's pouting lips made the older sisters and brothers next to her laugh.
But when the young girl saw the figures of the guards among the shadows on the river rafts, she hurriedly ran towards the riverbank.
"Sister Ayin, is that you, Sister Ayin?"
"Hey-- Brother Leopard and Brother Kang are here too!"
As they drew closer, Duoduo saw Amo and naturally also saw Achen. She jumped around and called out to him.
"Sister-in-law, brother--"
"Brother—I'm here, brother—"
Soon, Duoduo ran to the nearest riverbank. "Brother, where did you come from? That direction is deep into the Jiu Miao River!"
It had only been a few days since they last saw each other, and the younger sister already missed her brother, especially since they were in Zi Miao.
"Don't jump any further, or you'll fall."
As Ah Chen was drifting downstream, he saw Duo Duo hopping and skipping around, so he quickly called out to remind her.
This little sister is very attached to her brother.
"whee--"
"Brother, what are you doing here?"
Ah Chen looked up and said loudly, "What's wrong? When did you come back from Lincheng? Has your sister Ah Rui come back?"
"I just arrived today, and Sister Rui is back too! After I got home, I came here with Sister Zi Miao and the others."
Duoduo told Achen that she would be staying here for a month, starting today.
She pouted and said, "If I had known you would come back today, I would have come here with my sisters two days later."
