Half an hour later--
Hao Fang and Yun Kai, who were led by A Shi to the side wooden house, were warmed by a charcoal fire, so they weren't too cold.
However, they were far from at peace.
During the waiting period, Yun Kai kept thinking that if things really got out of control, he would just quit.
It wasn't that Yun Kai was afraid of death; he was afraid of being wiped out by the Miao people's evil spirits.
After all, his children are all quite young.
Trying to reason with these bastards is like trying to survive.
Hao Fang didn't say anything, and his expression revealed nothing of his thoughts.
However, the defense personnel who came with him and Yun Kai were all trembling inside.
They usually act all high and mighty outside, especially when they wear that green leather suit, they're so damn cocky.
But once they arrived at the Miao people's home, they not only dared not be arrogant, but even had to keep a low profile.
If it weren't for that little bit of monthly salary, they wouldn't have come to the Miao family for something like this!
soon--
Ah Chen and Ah Mo have arrived.
The couple wore simple Miao clothing, with matching silver necklaces around their necks and silver bracelets on their wrists.
However, Amo now has a pair of earrings, and Achen now has a Miao knife at his waist.
Everything else is basically the same.
"I'm sorry, I was discussing the Miao New Year with the elders when I received Ah Shi's message. I kept Yun Fang waiting."
Cloud-based defense?
When Yun Kai heard A Chen address him as "A Chen," he knew something bad was about to happen.
After all, when Achen met him before, he would always have to banter with him before he felt comfortable. This sudden seriousness was something Yun Kai wasn't used to.
He hoped that Ah Chen could be the same as he was with Qing Miao a few days ago!
Go for it!
You, Mu Achen, dare to say a few words to me, Yun Kai!
Only then can I feel at ease.
but--
Compared to Yun Kai's inner turmoil, Hao Fang felt a sense of unease.
Because Mu Achen's words carried considerable weight.
What do you mean he's discussing the Miao New Year with the Miao clan elders? Does this mean the Miao clan elders in eastern Guizhou knew about their visit to Mu Achen immediately?
just in case...
They took Mu Achen away. Will we hear the sound of war drums the next second?
"This is --"
Ah Chen's gaze fell on the middle-aged man next to Yun Kai, who immediately introduced him, "Brother, this is Chief Defense Officer Hao from the city."
"Ah Chen, do you mind if I call you that?"
Hao Fang took the initiative to show goodwill and even greeted Amo, saying, "Holy Maiden, we've met before."
Ah Mo nodded gently.
Ah Chen raised his hand and said, "Hao Fangyun, please sit down!"
At this moment, Ah Chen felt like a complete stranger to Yun Kai. He was nothing like the arrogant Ah Chen who used to be when he was arguing with him, his tail practically wagging. He was so different now!
Mature and experienced.
Soon, several young women brought in tea. Ah Chen said, "Our Miao people have always served wine to our guests, and we should be serving wine today, but—"
"Hao Fang and Yun Fang are here at this time, so they are probably not here as guests, and naturally they won't be drinking. So let's have tea instead of wine, please."
Good heavens, is this really Mu Achen?
It doesn't look like it at all!
Looking at Achen in front of him, Yun Kai would have thought that Achen was Mu Achen's twin brother if the face wasn't so familiar.
But compared to Yun Kai's bewilderment, Hao Fang, who was in his fifties, was even more bewildered.
He knew perfectly well who the future Miao king would be.
Even though he had never had any direct contact with Mu Achen before, was this future Miao King a kind soul?
If he were a good man, last winter he could have mobilized the Miao people to take up battle flags and sweep away all the bandits along the way in Rongjiang.
"Ah Chen, please don't be so polite. To be honest, I'm not exactly an outsider."
"Yeah."
“My maternal grandparents’ family were Miao people, as was my mother’s.”
Grass!
That guy surnamed Hao is actually flattering Ah Chen?
Yun Kai's heart skipped a beat! Although surprised, however--
Old Hao's move was really ruthless!
Doesn't this subtly bring me closer to Mu Achen and the others?
If I had known, I would have found a Miao girl to be my wife. With Mu Achen by my side, even if I couldn't rise to the top, at least I wouldn't have to worry about what Mu Achen does all the time.
I'm worried that one day I'll wake up and find myself completely stripped of my rights.
But Yun Kai had no idea that what Hao Fang said was not only true, but that Hao Fang had not only heard about the Miao people in certain aspects, but had even seen them in person! Even though it had been decades.
Hao Fang also said, "My maternal grandfather's family is from the northern part of Guangxi, a branch of the Miao people."
A branch of the Miao ethnic group?
Ah Chen and Ah Mo exchanged a glance.
Amo said, "The Miao people in northern Guangxi are very similar to the Miao people in eastern Guizhou! But many non-Miao people think they are the same branch, but that's not the case. Hao Fang, do you know what the differences are?"
What's the difference?
Yunzhi opened his ears in surprise.
The Holy Maiden is testing Hao Fang!
Hao Fang knew this was a test, after all, he was the one who first mentioned that he was the son of the Miao aunt. If he couldn't give a clear answer now, things might not end well.
but--
Since he dared to claim ties with the Miao people of eastern Guizhou, he could naturally say it.
"The saintess is right. Crooked seedlings are also called comb seedlings or lopsided seedlings!"
"When I was little, I could see my grandmother's headdress every day. Her hair was styled in a bun on the left and her colorful comb was crooked."
Afterwards, Hao Fang described the characteristics of the Miao people's clothing.
He used the Miao language when referring to some customs that non-Miao people are unaware of.
Now--
Yun Kai was stunned!
