Volume 8: Mystery in the Ancient Tomb
The word "one hundred years ago" can only be simply equated with "long-lasting" in the hearts of a innocent Miao girl like Xiang Yiling. However, in Jiang Xiaoshu's heart, it has a different meaning.
A hundred years ago, the Emperor of Qin at that time was the Emperor Yongshuo, who had the most martial arts skills.
It was then that Miaojiang first appeared in the history books of the Qin Dynasty, and it was "hostile" attitude.
It turned out that their last Miao King also died at that time. What happened a hundred years ago?
Even though this seems to have nothing to do with the kidnapping case and the evil case, it still aroused Jiang Xiaoshu's great interest.
He believed that the more information he had, the closer he would be to the truth.
Xiang Yiling continued:
"I heard from my father that a hundred years ago, there were no Thousand Miao Villages, Langde Shang Village, and Lisha Village... Now these dozens of Miao Villages were a whole at that time, and they were called Da Miao Village."
"What a simple and direct name." Jiang Xiaoshu couldn't help but say.
"Because we Miaojiang people have this personality... Oh, Brother Jiang, don't interrupt me, what should I do if I miss it?" Xiang Yiling glared at Jiang Xiaoshu with some resentment.
"Ter, tell me." Jiang Xiaoshu shrugged.
"The Da Miao Village is very big, almost as big as the ten thousand-house Miao Villages now. At that time, the center of the Da Miao Village was a very high mountain. The middle of the mountain was actually empty, and the inside was the Miao King's palace."
A very high mountain? Jiang Xiaoshu looked at the southwest mountain opposite again, and imagined the appearance of the Miao Palace in his heart.
"But a hundred years ago, many people came outside. They went into the palace to drink and eat with King Miao. Everything was fine, but one day, people found that the palace's large iron gate was tightly sealed..."
Jiang Xiaoshu was shocked.
"The door was never opened again. After many days, no news came out, and no one could open the door. From then on, the Damiao Village was divided into two factions. Some said that the Miao King was killed by those people and shouted to take revenge; the other part trusted those people very much and refused to allow it... The two factions could not argue, and finally they split. The one who was in charge of the war went away from a foreign land and resolutely did not interact with outsiders, forming the former Langde and the Sand... The one who was in charge of the peace stayed and became the current Qianhu Miao Village..."
Although the story does not mention who those outsiders are, Jiang Xiaoshu knows that they must be an envoy or general sent by Emperor Yongshuo.
"When the two factions separated, the faction of the war said, 'It is a big mistake for you not to avenge the Miao King. After we leave, you must at least preserve the body of the Miao King and not let outsiders invade you anymore.' Our ancestors of Qianhu Miao Village agreed. From then on, the former Miao King Palace became the tomb of the Miao King and the forbidden area of the entire Miao Xinjiang."
After hearing Xiang Yiling's words, Jiang Xiaoshu couldn't help looking at the wind and rain bridge under his feet. More than a hundred years ago, the bridge must have been very lively, and it would never be like this now. In such a huge bridge, there were only two people, myself and Xiang Yiling.
Xiang Yiling emphasized:
"Brother Jiang, you must not break into the tomb of King Miao, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."
Jiang Xiaoshu turned his head slightly, wanting to hear what serious method is.
"Anyone who enters the forbidden area, especially outsiders, will be beheaded and displayed in public after being caught. This is not a joke." Xiang Yiling said seriously.
"Good guy." Jiang Xiaoshu stuck out his tongue:
"Then I sneak in, does it count if no one sees it?"
"No." Xiang Yiling immediately raised his face and gave Jiang Xiaoshu a warning look.
However, a beautiful girl, especially a girl with bright eyes that seems to be able to talk, no matter how angry she looks, others seem to be acting coquettish.
Jiang Xiaoshu laughed:
"I'm just teasing you, look at you're so anxious."
Only then did Xiang Yiling give up:
"That's right."
Then she suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.
Jiang Xiaoshu is a little strange:
"What are you laughing at?"
Xiang Yiling looked at him:
"Brother Jiang, it seems that Sister Liu is right."
Liu Lingwei? Jiang Xiaoshu muttered:
"Damn, what did she say to you again?"
Xiang Yiling smiled even more:
"It seems that you are serious and gentle, really not suitable for Brother Jiang. You have to be polite when you were before, and you have to be polite to talk to you. How could you be as happy and casual as you are now?"
Jiang Xiaoshu laughed silently:
"What, it's wrong to speak politely, right?"
Xiang Yiling's eyebrows were slightly locked, as if he was thinking about something, then she said:
"But just like Brother Shan said, you are so awkward to be polite. You can tell at a glance that you are pretending to be a master without speaking in front of a beautiful girl."
"Although I know you heard this at that time," Jiang Xiaoshu touched his nose, feeling a little amused:
"Don't have to be so direct, right?"
"Simple and direct, this is the nature of our Miaojiang people." Xiang Yiling blinked.
"Simple and direct..." Jiang Xiaoshu repeated, then said softly:
"Good."
Xiang Yiling turned his head:
"Hmm? Why is this? Isn't everyone like this?"
Jiang Xiaoshu didn't answer these childish words, but just smiled and shook his head.
At this time, a breeze blew, and Jiang Xiaoshu felt refreshed. He yawned and leaned back lazily.
Since entering Miao Village, Jiang Xiaoshu felt that he was troubled by one after another. Until now, he joked with the girl beside him for a few gossips before he gradually relaxed.
Slowly closed his eyes and held the back of his head with both hands, Jiang Xiaoshu enjoyed this moment of peace with peace.
Xiang Yiling, who was standing beside her, was also tactful. Seeing Jiang Xiaoshu sitting quietly, she stopped talking, but instead held up her chin and looked at the other person curiously.
After a moment, she suddenly said:
"Brother Jiang, you are so beautiful."
Jiang Xiaoshu didn't even raise his eyelids:
"Yeah, I know."
Hearing this answer, Xiang Yiling was stunned, and Jiang Xiaoshu, who had closed his eyes, spoke again:
"I'm not modest this time?"
It’s true that you are not humble, but you’re a little embarrassed... Xiang Yiling muttered in his heart.
"I'm a little thick-skinned." Jiang Xiaoshu suddenly said as if he knew how to read his mind.
Xiang Yiling was startled, his eyes full of surprise.
"But it's not wrong," Jiang Xiaoshu was still leaning lazily, and he grinned:
"What a pity, I've known about this a long time ago, so I won't have to remind the girl..."
Xiang Yiling felt happy and had a great time. He was about to say something else, but Jiang Xiaoshu sat up suddenly, his expression full of helplessness.
"Brother Jiang, are you angry?" Xiang Yiling was a little surprised.
Jiang Xiaoshu cursed with hatred:
"Damn it, the death-seeking ghost, I won't let me go if I run here."
Xiang Yiling quickly apologized:
"I'm sorry, Brother Jiang, I'll make you rest..."
Jiang Xiaoshu turned his head, full of suspicion:
"What?"
Xiang Yiling felt a little aggrieved:
"I didn't mean it."
"Hey, it has nothing to do with you. Why are you apologizing... I'm talking about her." Jiang Xiaoshu quickly explained.
"she?"
Xiang Yiling had no martial arts skills and his ears were mediocre. It was not until a few breaths that he heard the sound of the sound in the village:
"Jiang Xiaoshu, come back soon, something big happened!"
