"If I'm not mistaken, it's for the Gu technique."
For the sake of Gu poison?
Ah Chen frowned and said, "None of us men from Qiandong know any Gu magic!"
"Yes! The Miao men of eastern Guizhou don't know it, but the Miao men of western Hunan do, or more precisely, the men of the Black Miao branch of western Hunan know Miao Gu."
Ah Chen hadn't expected that!
Most Miao men in the major Miao regions do not know Miao witchcraft, except for a small branch of the Black Miao people in western Hunan, where every single Miao man knows it.
"Amo, do you mean that this old woman mistakenly believes that the Black Miao men of my Qiandong Miao region also know Gu magic, so she controls this old beast in an attempt to steal it?"
"right!"
Amo said that this information was the memory she had retrieved before the old woman stopped breathing.
"If that's the case, things are starting to become clearer!"
It was also because things had become clear! Ah Chen also came to hate the Gelao people, and actually secretly coveted their Miao family's Gu techniques.
The old beast seems to have been wronged in this matter, as he was mistaken by the Gelao woman who did not fully understand the Miao people as a Miao man from the Black Miao region of eastern Guizhou who also knew witchcraft.
Should!
They deserve this kind of torture!
Good riddance.
But--
Ah Chen asked again, "Ah Mo, but they've been together for decades, how could they not have any children?"
"this--"
Amo hesitated for a moment before whispering in Achen's ear.
Upon hearing this, Achen's eyes widened.
"really?"
"Yes! I spotted him the moment I first saw him!"
"That old bastard—"
Ah Chen never expected that this old bastard would castrate himself just so he wouldn't leave any descendants here.
poison!
That's really vicious.
They're even capable of doing something like self-castration.
With so many things happening to that old bastard mixed together, Ah Chen really wanted to dig up his great-grandfather's grave and ask him what kind of bastard he had back then.
Be ruthless to your family, but even more ruthless to yourself!
The Mu family of Black Crow Village, or more precisely, the small branch of Mu Achen's family, has been tarnished and discredited by those beasts like Old Zamao, Boss Mu, and Third Brother Mu.
Ah Chen knew very well that if he weren't the future Miao King, and if his clan registration hadn't been taken away from Black Crow Village by the nine elders beforehand, he probably would have been—
In Miao culture, such a person will be infamous for eternity!
When that time comes, the Miao people will be stripped of their Miao identity and their spirit will be sealed away. Even being an ordinary person will be a luxury.
so--
Thinking about all this, he felt both hatred for the old beast and Mu Laosan, and also a sense of luck for himself.
This good fortune is the result of the efforts of many people.
The most important one was his mother.
Mother gave me life first, and then gave me that piece of iron to forge the Miao knife.
Only after that did everything that followed happen.
It's a pity that there's nowhere to pay respects to my mother; I can only do so in my heart.
"Missing your mother?"
Amo sensed Achen's emotional change immediately!
After Achen nodded, Amo said, "This year, we will hold a worship ceremony for the Miao New Year. I have already ordered someone to prepare a memorial tablet for Mother. We will set up the tablet for Mother ourselves."
"Then, you take Amo with you to worship!"
"From now on, whenever we miss her, we'll go and visit her memorial tablet."
"After that, we'll bring the kids along to worship together."
"Passed down from generation to generation, the worship is performed by each generation."
Amo's gentle and virtuous nature almost broke Achen's defenses once again.
Ah Chen grinned and said, "Old Mu is really lucky. His whole family of beasts raised wolves for nothing, yet he managed to keep himself clean. The key is that he also found a good wife and had a good son. And then his son even found him a daughter-in-law who is a saint."
"That old bastard, he's dead but still has such a good life! He's so happy, I bet he's down there right now arguing with his father about whose son is better."
*Pfft*
The guards and jackals beside them were just thinking how much the Holy Maiden doted on Ah Chen, when Ah Chen suddenly said something like that.
Even Amo was amused.
after--
She took the old hairpin from the wooden table, wiped off all the stains, checked it, and gave it to Achen.
"It's hollow inside, and there's a small strip of cloth with writing on it! It should be an address and a name."
"A token?"
"Most likely!"
"This belongs to that old bastard; I find it disgusting to hold it!"
“But we can’t just leave it here! After all, he took some of the Mu family’s things with him. Whether you want to get them back is another matter, but at least you need to know what they are.”
That old bastard is dead, yet he still left this suspense for Mu Achen.
Ah Chen had absolutely no interest in it.
But what Amo said makes sense. Even if I don't want it, I still need to know what it is.
So he put it away.
It was at this time--
Suddenly, shouts of battle erupted from the front of Qingtan Village, and the gunfire, which had just subsided for a while, resumed.
When Ah Chen and his group reached a spot where they wouldn't be blocked by the big trees, they finally saw the entrance to the front village. It seemed that a thousand Gelao people had surrounded Shi Xiang and Yun Kai.
"Achen, what are you planning to do next?" Amo asked.
Without a second thought, Achen said, "Have the Miao men on the back side of the village throw Mu Laosan into the front side of the village, which is the village of the Gelao people."
Mu Laosan is doomed to die in the hands of the Gelao people.
"Then, let Yun Kai and Shi Xiang retreat. I'll wait for them on the opposite mountainside! Knock out Zhou Qin and Mu Laosan's wife and take them with me."
Upon hearing this, Amo thought for a moment and understood what Achen meant. She then asked Siwei Amo to make the arrangements.
