While Ah Ling and Ah Yun were arguing --
By the dimly lit well, Ah Chen, having almost finished washing, turned around and saw the mountainside to the side—
On this rainy night, the light in that direction flickered intermittently, as if some eerie light was flashing.
He intended to go over and take a look, but as soon as he turned around, he saw Amo walking over.
"Ah Chen, don't go—"
"What's wrong?"
As Amo approached, she whispered, "Let's go inside and deal with the old hag."
What about the Grass Demoness?
witchcraft?
Without a second thought, Ah Chen rushed inside. He had just sat down by the charcoal fire—
Amo then said, "Isn't the Fengluan Ancient Village going to be developed gradually? The old ladies are planning to set aside a safe area here."
Upon hearing this, Ah Chen suddenly understood.
Yes, there are always some things in the deep mountains that cannot be explained.
These things have to be done with witchcraft.
Besides, the ancient city to the left of Fengluan Ancient Village, and the surrounding area, will soon see more non-Miao people coming in than they do now; we can't scare them away.
While drying his wet hair, Ah Chen asked, "By the way, Ah Mo, where have the elders been these past two days? I haven't seen them."
"I guess they went to Miaoling. You need to see them for something."
Miaoling?
Ah Chen looked at Ah Mo, who was making the bed, with a puzzled expression, and nodded. "Didn't the elder say that I should contact him when I'm not busy here, because it's important?"
"It should be something important, but I feel—"
Amo turned around, looked at Achen, and said, "I'm afraid you should be prepared."
"Mental preparation? What do you mean?"
You'll find out then.
Forehead--
suspense?
You're making me curious!
the next day--
Accompanied by A-Ling, Ah-Chen, Ah-Mo, and Ah-Yun met the clan elders in the mountain valley north of Fengluan Ancient Village.
The top-tier old witches are also here.
The key point is that the clan elders and old witches actually met with Amo and Aling first, and I don't know what they were discussing.
Anyway, Ah Chen was quite depressed when he was at the wooden table in front of the stilted house.
"Ah Yun, you come too."
A few minutes later, Ayun was also called inside by an old witch.
Now, Ah Chen was even more annoyed, wondering what important matter they were discussing? Why were they leaving me out first?
If it were just a matter for the grass ghosts, that would be normal, but all nine clan elders are involved.
However--
Just as Ah Chen was wondering what big event it could be, the top group of aunties from Xiangxi arrived again.
The key point is that they came, and when they entered the house, they were all smiles as they looked at Ah Chen.
That smile gave Ah Chen a feeling that he was about to cause trouble.
After the women went inside, he turned and glanced around, intending to ask one of the Miao men, but here—
This is the place where the clan elders discuss important matters, and even the core Miao people are not necessarily allowed to enter or leave freely. Therefore, at this time, there are hardly any Miao people at all.
but--
Besides its beautiful scenery, Beishan is another place with stunning views.
A few kilometers to the southwest lies the entrance to the Miao Mountains.
That day, the elders and the others showed Achen around this area.
The Miao Mountains in western Hunan and the Miao Mountains in eastern Guizhou are the same Miao Mountains, only with different entrances.
There are many secrets hidden in the Miao Mountains.
Ah Chen has not yet ascended to the throne, so what I can tell him is only a small part.
But even this small part surprised Ah Chen!
But that day, the clan elder and the most powerful old witch mentioned something about the special characteristics of the successive Miao kings.
They didn't say what was special about it, but Ah Chen had a vague feeling that it was very likely related to the Miao marriages of the spirit maidens.
otherwise--
The Miao marriage between Mi Aling and Nan Ayun is clearly unacceptable.
The more Ah Chen thought about it, the more he felt --
The secrets hidden in the Miao Mountains that I am unaware of will probably surprise him even more.
After all, the previous Miao king was fond of plotting against people.
...
Time, slowly, passes by!
Forty minutes later--
The Five Elders came out and waved to Achen.
"Achen, come here quickly."
come over?
I don't want to go anymore!
Ah Chen wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but then he thought better of it. If he really wanted to leave, he would have left earlier. Why wait until now?
On the side of the main room, when Achen entered, several elders were sitting around the fire pit.
As for Amo and those old witches, they weren't in this room, but on the side.
"Ah Chen, sit down quickly!"
The eldest elder sat in the center, while the second elder poured a bowl of wine for Achen.
Glug glug--
Ah Chen took it and drank it all in one gulp!
Then, after sitting down, he said, "Elders, why are you all being so mysterious—"
"I know you're discussing whether or not to tell me all your secrets."
"Anyone who didn't know better would think you were plotting to replace the Miao King!"
"Ah Chen, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Ah Chen's joke immediately drew the glare of the Sixth Elder: "The Miao King is chosen by the heavens, and the Holy Maiden and the Spirit Maiden are also chosen by the heavens."
“That’s right! Ah Chen, you, the shining star of the Miao King, should abide by the rule of all the previous Miao Kings.”
After the two elders finished speaking, the other elders also brought up some of the Miao King's rules for Achen.
Ah Chen was speechless!
When his gaze fell upon the elder who had not yet spoken—
The elder clan leader spoke casually: "Achen! Although the Miao rules are inviolable, there are some secrets I can still reveal to you."
"Take a look at this!"
