After leaving the Lin Group, Xiao Yun returned directly to the medical clinic.
He was not drunk to begin with, but after blowing the cold wind, he became more and more sober.
As soon as he walked into the medical clinic, he saw Chi Hong, who was still a little drunk. He was smiling and standing there rubbing his hands, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Hey, master..."
Xiao Yun helplessly held his forehead and sighed softly: "Come in, I have something to ask you."
Chi Hong's face lit up, and he followed Xiao Yun into an empty consulting room. Tang Jingling outside looked at the mysterious two people curiously, muttered a few words, and went to make tea.
After a while, Tang Jingling brought the tea in and without saying anything else, she wisely withdrew.
Xiao Yun looked at Chi Hong's dark and bright eyes, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Mr. Qin has a close friendship with a master of poison control... Do you know that person?"
While in the car just now, Xiao Yun suddenly thought, how did Qin Jingshan, as the head of a wealthy and noble family, get to know these Gu masters?
Thinking of the affair between the owner of the Monroe Club and Wu Fenglai, he could not help but worry about whether the so-called "poison master" might also have evil intentions and have done something harmful to the world.
Chi Hong tilted his head and thought for a long time, then said: "Master, are you talking about Hu Qingshi? I know that person, but I don't know much about him. I just heard my grandfather mention it."
Hu Qingshi?
Xiao Yun nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Chi Hong said calmly: "This Hu Qingshi is said to have been a great Gu master in the Miao Territory. Because of his superb Gu skills, he is somewhat famous in the Miao Territory!"
"But then... a fire suddenly broke out in the village where he was, and the entire village was burned down overnight, causing heavy losses!"
Xiao Yun squinted his eyes and immediately made a guess, saying, "Later, people in the village found out that the person who set the fire was Hu Qingshi?"
"Huh?" Chi Hong was a little surprised, "Master, you are so amazing, do you know this?"
"Old, old, old, why am I old?" Xiao Yun rolled his eyes at him angrily, nodded and said, "Keep talking."
Chi Hong chuckled, scratched his head and continued: "Just as you guessed, master, the people in the village found out that the person who set the fire was Hu Qingshi, so they arrested him for interrogation."
"As a result, this interrogation found that Hu Qingshi was secretly refining a kind of Gu insect in hiding, but failed in the end, and the shapeless Gu insect almost escaped!"
"In order to prevent the failed Gu insects from escaping and harming innocent people, he burned down the village in desperation."
Hearing this, Xiao Yun touched his chin thoughtfully and thought to himself that the Gu bugs secretly refined by Hu Qingshi must be very evil, otherwise, the people in the village would not have been driven out of Miao territory.
But fortunately, he had some conscience in the end and did not let the failed Gu insect escape.
As expected, Chi Hongshen continued mysteriously: "It is said that the poisonous insects refined by Hu Qingshi were very vicious. Although he failed in the end and the failed poisonous insects were burned by him, he was still driven away by the people in the village.
He left Miao territory and warned him never to come back again!"
"Besides, they took away his last name!"
"Deprived of his surname?" Xiao Yun frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, didn't that person have a name? How could he be said to have been deprived of his surname?
But Xiao Yun soon realized that it was the Miao surname that Hu Qingshi had been deprived of.
Miao people generally have two surnames, one is Miao and the other is Han.
The Miao surname is originally inherent, while the Han surname is derived later.
Because the Miao people do not have writing, they cannot write their own Miao surname. When communicating with Han people, they can only use the original Miao surname, or the names of clan leaders and household heads, which have evolved according to the transliteration of Chinese characters.
For example, among the Miao people in Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan, some Miao surnames are called "Suogu" or "Kuaigu". When the Chinese characters are transliterated, the surname is "Gu".
There is another saying that "officials establish surnames".
In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, after some Miao leaders surrendered to the imperial court, the imperial court and the government would give them surnames with Chinese characters.
However, because the families in a Miao village are very complex, the same Han surname may correspond to several Miao surnames.
For example, in a certain Miao village in southern Yunnan, all the people in the village have the surname Bai, but there are as many as eleven corresponding Miao surnames!
Obviously, it is impossible to distinguish each family simply by using Chinese surnames. Therefore, in Miao territory, the Miao surname is basically used inside the village, while to the outside world, the Chinese name and Han surname are used.
When Chi Hong saw Xiao Yun thinking about something, he didn't dare to interrupt him and just sat there quietly.
It wasn't until Xiao Yun came back to his senses and signaled him to continue with his eyes that he finally said: "After Hu Qingshi was expelled from Miao Territory, he wandered around, and finally managed to get out of Zhongyang City with his own skills.
Come up with something famous."
"Oh?" Xiao Yun glanced at Chi Hong curiously.
"That guy not only knows witchcraft and Gu, but is also proficient in Feng Shui. At the beginning, Mr. Qin was looking for masters to rebuild his ancestral graves. After several friends introduced him, he got to know him."
Hearing this, Xiao Yun held his chin in his hand and thought for a moment, guessing that Hu Qingshi could prosper in Zhongyang by showing Feng Shui to the upper class families.
Chi Hong took a sip of tea and asked suspiciously: "Master, why did you find out about this person?"
Xiao Yun then looked at him and said: "Actually, the place I am going to when I leave Zhongyang this time is Miaojiang. Mr. Qin was worried that I would not have anyone to take care of me when I got there, so he said he would take care of this 'master' for me.
Please come and go with us.”
"puff!"
Hearing this, Chi Hong hurriedly covered his mouth and almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
He wiped his mouth and said with a look of astonishment on his face: "Invite him to come with you?! Damn it! Master, you are not interesting enough. The old man is already over eighty this year. You would rather take him with you than bring him with you."
Shall I go?"
"puff!"
This time it was Xiao Yun's turn to spray tea.
What the hell?
The "master" Qin Jingshan wants to invite to go to the Miao border with him is almost eighty this year?!
How about going to play ball with his grandma?!
Wu Fenglai, who is in his sixties, and Hu Qingshi, who is in his eighties, are they going to the mountains of Miao territory to find a way to break the witchcraft? Or are they the Sunset Red Senior Tour Group?
No, no, he has to have a talk with the old man!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yun immediately couldn't sit still and stood up to make a call to Qin Jingshan.
Seeing this, Chi Hong quickly struck while the iron was hot and stepped forward and said: "Hey, master, why don't you take me with you! I promise, I will take good care of you and that eighty-something Hu Qingshi!"
Xiao Yun glanced sideways at him, his grandma, why do these words sound so awkward?
Dare you think that in the eyes of this kid Chi Hong, he is also on the level of a bad old man?
