Along the way, we passed through several Miao villages hidden in the mountains.
Each village would dress in their finest attire and go out to greet the procession until the future Miao king and holy maiden's procession passed by, at which point they would follow behind.
Similarly, whenever Ah Chen and Ah Mo approached a Miao village, a thunderous horn would sound at the village entrance.
The Miao people's group has grown from two thousand when they entered the mountain trails to nearly ten thousand.
The one-meter-wide mountain road, as more and more Miao people join in, looks like a winding giant python when viewed from above, meandering deep into the mountains.
This scene is grand and magnificent.
Besides the jackals and guards, Ah Chen and Ah Mo were protected by the most elite members of the Qingmiao tribe and the grass ghosts.
Three hours later--
"Achen, that's Luoxia Village over there," Yang Ahu, the leader of the Jackals, said to Achen, pointing to the cluster of villages on the left.
Ah Chen looked to the side.
There, a small bridge spans a flowing stream, and ancient temples and trees complement each other beautifully.
only--
The lingering smell of gunpowder in the air has polluted this once beautiful waterside landscape.
Especially on the other side of the canyon, which is the area where the fighting between the non-Miao people took place, the houses were clearly damaged.
At this moment, in the direction of Luoxia Village, among thousands of people—
The Miao people waiting there all bowed and offered their respects.
"Welcome, future Miao King!"
"Welcome, Holy Maiden."
This unified roar was filled with deep affection for the Miao people.
Boom! Boom!
Immediately following was the sound of bugles.
As the horn sounded, the sound of war drums also began.
The loud bang shook not only the Miao people, but also the people of other ethnic groups in Luoxia Village.
At that moment, the non-Miao people, seeing the Miao people's impressive formation and witnessing the arrival of the Miao people's future king and current holy maiden, deeply wished that they too could have their own king and holy maiden.
That way, they won't be afraid!
At least in my heart, I have a sense of belonging.
Ah Chen glanced at Ah Mo, and the two jumped off their warhorses and headed towards the Luoxia Village canyon.
Jackals and guards provided close protection.
With the arrival of the future Miao King and the current Holy Maiden, the atmosphere in Luoxia Village changed.
Especially over there in the canyon.
Because it's within Qingyu's territory, there's still military defense there.
Judging by appearances, there are no fewer than 500 people.
The people over there were clearly under control; the military was afraid they would cause trouble again.
However, as Ah Chen approached, the warriors on the other side of the canyon became inexplicably flustered, after all, the Miao family's formation was too powerful.
They were also worried that the mighty and domineering Miao leader might suddenly order the Miao people to come and take away the troublemakers who had already been brought under their control.
If that were the case, they wouldn't dare to easily go against the Miao people, after all, that young Miao man is their future Miao king, and he is truly the number one big shot in eastern Guizhou.
Fortunately, Ah Chen only glanced at it and didn't say anything before pulling Ah Mo away. Otherwise, if he had opened his mouth, he would have definitely scared the green-skinned creatures over there.
After all, the green-skinned people were afraid he would ask for people.
Although Ah Chen didn't say anything, he asked Yang Ahu as he turned around, "Are there any Miao people from our village over there in the canyon?"
Yang Ahu was also unsure, so he immediately sent someone to summon the Miao people from Luoxia Village.
The man first offered a gift, then said, "Achen, there are usually Miao people living there, but after what happened yesterday, we sent people to bring them over. There are no of our people there now."
"That's good!"
Ah Chen said to Yang A Hu, "Send more men to find out who openly disobeyed orders and attacked the armed forces. I'll give you three days. Is that enough?"
"Ah Chen, we've already made some progress in less than three days. We're currently verifying the information, and I'll report back as soon as I have any updates."
"Brother, what's your name—"
Is the future Miao king asking me my name?
The young man was stunned, because he really dared not imagine that their future Miao king would ask him his name.
He belongs to the Qingmiao group, but there are tens of thousands of people in the Qingmiao group!
"Ah Chen is asking you a question, what are you standing there for?" Yang Ahu kicked him.
"Oh, Ah Chen, my name is Ah Ming. The character 'Ming' is the one with the 'gold' radical on the left and the 'ming' radical in my name on the right." When Ah Ming announced his name, he was completely unaware that his voice was trembling with excitement.
Ah Chen nodded.
Yang Ahu pointed to the village on the side and said to Achen, "The villages around Luoxia Village are all inhabited by our Miao people, more than a hundred households. Aming is in charge of this area."
Ah Chen said to Ah Ming, "Even if we find out who it is, we need to know how many of them there are and why they would do something to undermine the overall development of Qingmiao."
"Don't worry, Ah Chen, we will definitely find out."
"good!"
Ah Chen turned around, preparing to lead the large group towards Balong Ancient Village, when suddenly—
He turned around and saw the aunties from Luoxia Village staring at him, wiping away tears.
There were two or three hundred aunties, and several grandmothers as well.
They just wiped away their tears and didn't say a word.
"What's wrong, Mo?" Achen asked in a low voice, tilting his head.
"They miss you," Amo said softly.
Missing me?
At this moment, Ah Chen realized that even Ah Ming and Yang A Hu, these tough Miao men beside him, had tears welling up in their eyes.
Gradually--
Even the hundreds of women who had gathered around couldn't help but wipe away their tears.
At this moment, all the Miao people of Luoxia Village, regardless of age or gender, looked at Achen and shed tears.
