The simple wooden pulleys were rotating creakingly, and the caravan's guards and the seedling men worked together to lift the horses and goods to the top of the cliff one by one.Although those flower seedling men are not tall, they are agile and are not inferior to Yi Biao, Wu Zhanwei and others.
When Ningyu finally climbed the Orangutan Cliff with Changsuo in his arms, half an hour had passed.The man from Huamiao enthusiastically pulled him away, but Ningyu dodged away.
Qi Yuan lay on the ground and gasped for a while.Cheng Zongyang handed over the pot of water. Qi Yuan took a few sips with difficulty, wiped the water droplets on his chin with his back, and grinned his teeth.After traveling to the Southern Wilderness for many years, my body and bones have ruined the miasma here.Ten years ago, I, Qi Si, did not breathe when I went back and forth between the two roads.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: It is said that the miasma in the Southern Wilderness is poisonous. What exactly is miasma?
The southern wilderness is humid and the climate is stuffy. The trees, flowers, birds, feathers, and beasts in the forest are steamed by the heat, and a layer of fog is generated. From a distance, it looks like the clouds in the forest. The colors are also beautiful, red, yellow, and blue.There will be peach blossom miasma in March, and there will be yellow plum miasma and snake miasma in June.I was infected with miasma, and I vomited from the upper and lower part of the body. I couldn't move for a few days, so the severe ones were not cured.
As he said that, Qi Yuan pointed to the women of the flower seedlings and whispered: Don’t look at the women in the Southern Wilderness who are born with water, but they are old quickly, and they are all caused by miasma.
Under the thick shade of the tree, A Xi, a girl in a goose yellow skirt, was scolded by the patriarch Su Li. She pouted and lowered her head in discontent.
The older Ajia was teased by A Xi and was so angry that she ignored her.
The other women of the flower seedlings were smiling and watching. They were like the first blooming flowers. Even if some were still angry, they were as beautiful as peach and plum.
Looking at the Ming Li girls, Qi Yuan, who was drinking water, was slightly lost and did not notice the water flowed to his neck.
Cheng Zongyang raised his hand and shook it in front of Qi Yuan's eyes. Hey, Lao Qi.
Well,
Qi Yuan woke up and regained his true nature in business. He laughed and then calmed down and said: They have helped us so much, and they just happened to see them off for the wedding.Head Cheng, we should also get some gifts to give.Huamiao people value love, and everything is easy to do if they have friendship.
OK.You pick a few and let's send them over.
Qi Yuan was a little embarrassed, but the goods we brought were not very suitable.
It is indeed inappropriate to use the medicinal materials, salt, cloth and iron tools brought by Baihu Shopping Mall as gifts.
Cheng Zongyang thought about it for a while and said with a smile: This is easy to deal with.The silk that Brother Yun brought with him was a ready-made gift.I discussed with him and picked a few good ones and sent them together, which was half of the two of us.
Qi Yuan smiled and said, OK!
Not long after Yun Cangfeng came up, Qi Yuan went over and said a few words. Yun Cangfeng immediately smiled on his tired face and ordered his subordinates to open the goods.
Everyone picked out a few pieces of silk wrapped in oil cloth, held it by Cheng Zongyang, and walked towards the Huamiao people with Yuncangfeng.
Su Li taught Ah Xi a lesson. When she saw Yun Cangfeng coming over, she knew that he was an identity in the caravan and took the initiative to greet the two of them.
Yun Cangfeng explained his purpose, and then smiled and said: I happened to encounter a happy event in the clan, and these little things are our wish.
The Yun Chamber of Commerce was well prepared, and the silks were wrapped in tart cloth, and they were still new along the way.Cheng Zongyang opened the oil cloth and a bright golden color overflowed.
This is the best Zhezhou silk. The golden silk surface is embroidered with bright intertwined roses. The colors are extremely gorgeous. Under the dark light, the fiery red roses seem to float on the golden silk, shining.
Su Li showed a surprise expression, she was so beautiful...
She couldn't help but touch it. The silk was as smooth as gentle water lines.
Such a valuable gift allows Huamiao people to feel the friendship of their guests.
Su Li generously accepted the gift and said to the two: No matter when the Yun Family Chamber of Commerce and Baihu Centre arrive at Huamiao, they are the most honorable guests of our Huamiao people.
The women of the flower seedlings chattered around the silk, and Ah Xi immediately forgot about what he had been scolded just now, and his cheeks were red as happy as those women.
Only the girl wearing a veil did not pass. She lowered her head slightly, and the white veil on her face was still moving, like a still picture.
Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Su Li said: She is the bride of Dragon God.The sacred Witch King ordered us to send the bride to the Bear Ear Shop and hand it over to his messenger, who would take her to the palace of the Dragon God.
Cheng Zongyang said: Witch King?Is the Ghost Witch King in Ghost King Cave?
Su Li nodded helplessly.
Cheng Zongyang exchanged glances with Yun Cangfeng.The Ghost Witch King's messenger was in Xionger Shop, and I don't know if they were the murderers of the Snake Yi Village bloody case.
Yun Cangfeng coughed, the people from Guiwangdong also arrived at Huadiao?
After talking, everyone realized that the power of Guiwangdong had already crossed the Ranjiang River and extended to the territory of Huamiao people two months ago.
Faced with the strength of Ghost King Dong, Ayi Suli, who had just become the leader of Hua Miao tribe, finally chose to surrender and became a vassal of Ghost King Dong like most tribes in the Southern Wilderness.
Guiwangdong asks all the vassal tribes for various tributes every year - including three of the most beautiful girls.One bride as the Dragon God, the other two will be dedicated to the Witch King for his enjoyment.
There are various legends about the Witch King in the Ghost King's Cave in the Southern Wilderness. Some people say that he has three heads, which are blessed by the gods of heaven, earth and dragon god; some people say that he wears a mask made of skeletons and sits on the throne made of black iron, while the Dragon God is hidden under his seat; some people say that the slaves served by the Witch King are all ghost slaves made by him by himself.
The most widely circulated saying is that the Ghost Witch King has to have sex with a beautiful virgin every day and treat her as food.
The messenger from Guiwangdong told the Huamiao people that the messenger of the Witch King would stay in Xionger Shop for a while and asked them to deliver the tribute as soon as possible.
After a fierce quarrel, the Huamiao people still chose their own tribute.
The most beautiful girl in the clan was chosen as the bride of the Dragon God. According to the custom of the Dragon God's marriage, she will wear a veil and no longer let mortals see her face.
Ajia and Axi were gifts dedicated to the Witch King.
Ajia was worried about her future fate, but the young Axi was still innocent and had some small pranks along the way, without a moment of peace.
After being scolded by Su Li, Ah Xi only stayed calm for a while, then slipped over and fiddled with the pulley, and pulled Yi Biao to ask questions.
Her arms and calves were naked, revealing large areas of snow-white skin, and her behavior was very casual, almost putting half of her body on Yi Biao.
Yi Biao was born in the military and had never seen such a formation. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his eyes. His face turned red like a cooked prawn, which made Wu Zhanwei joke later.
After resting, everyone set out on the road again.It was still daylight at this moment, but the forest was as dark as late as the night.Wu Zhanwei wanted to light a torch, but was stopped by Hua Miao people.
Too many fires will alarm the god of the forest.
Kava said: Follow our footprints. As long as the footprints of Huamiao people are still there, they will not let their friends get lost.
Kava walked in front with a torch, and the ingenious flower seedling men divided into two rows, protecting the bride and her group in the middle.
The caravan followed behind more than ten steps, and only Wu Erlang was shamelessly mixed with the Hua Miao people, joking with Su Li in a man's words that they couldn't understand.
Xie Yi took the horse and inadvertently stepped forward a few steps forward, walking side by side with Cheng Zongyang and Yun Cangfeng.
Legend has it that there is a kind of flower in the southern wilderness. Usually, the buds are closed and the singing and ringtones will bloom nearby.
Yun Cangfeng chatted: Unfortunately, not many people have seen it.Someone once picked a plant and wanted to transport it to the inland for sale, but it died as soon as it passed the mouth of Bailongjiang River.
Jade bell flowers.
Xie Yi smiled faintly and said: I have seen it in a book.There is also a kind of song that sings the grass, which will dance with the sound when the song sounds.
Yun Cangfeng nodded frequently while picking his beard. Brother Xie is really knowledgeable.The man was in good condition when he was trafficking that day, but as soon as he passed the mouth of Bailongjiang River, all the flowers and leaves withered. I wonder why?
Xie Yi thought for a while, maybe, the jade bell flowers and song grass are like the people in the Southern Wilderness, and the roots are all in the Southern Wilderness. Once they leave the Southern Wilderness, they will wither.
Cheng Zongyang was very interested in Xie Yi's sword technique. Brother Xie's sword technique must be very good, right?
Xie Yi smiled and said: Just barely defend yourself.
Are you interested in teaching me some of my skills?
Cheng Zongyang said: I will use the Baiwu clan’s first unique skill - the Five Tiger Broken Gate Sword to exchange it for you!
Xie Yi smiled and said: The Five Tigers Broken Door Knife is strong and brave. Brother Cheng has the ability to practice this set of sword techniques to protect himself.Xie is ordinary in swordsmanship, and learning more is useless.
Cheng Zongyang looked at him for a while and suddenly smiled, "Don't lie to me."If your sword technique is as ordinary as you said, wouldn’t you be happy to hear me using the Five Tiger Break Door Knife to exchange it with you?
Xie Yi smiled and said: Sword is the ancestor of hundreds of soldiers, and sword is the king of hundreds of soldiers.There are more than a thousand sword techniques in the world?The Five Tigers Broken Door Knife is a unique skill among swords, which is thousands of times better than what Xie learned.However, Xie's sword technique is different from the Five Tiger Broken Door Sword practice, so it cannot be forced.
Cheng Zongyang said: Aren’t it all a knife?What are the differences?
Xie Yi smiled slightly, pulled out an ordinary steel knife from the side of the saddle, handed it out without any fancy, splitting a branch, making his tricks very ordinary.
If a woodcutter saw it, he would definitely attract Xie Yi as his confidant.
His knife was like a woodcutter who had been cutting wood for many years. The center of gravity of the steel knife was falling on the branch. Using the weight of the knife body, the force was not too much or too little, and it just cut off the branch.
The angle, landing point and force are all extremely accurate.
But in Cheng Zongyang's eyes, he was pretty and looked at the blind man.He could not see anything at this moment, and he instinctively felt that his origin was not simple.
Xie Yi put away the knife in a little disappointed manner, and suddenly became energetic. If Brother Cheng wants to learn swordsmanship, I know an expert who uses swordsmanship.When I returned from the Southern Wilderness, how about I visit with Brother Cheng?
That's OK.
Cheng Zongyang agreed immediately.
Qi Yuan caught up and said: Cheng Touer and Deacon Yun have been delayed for more than an hour at Tengqiao. I am afraid I won’t be able to get tonight.
Yun Cangfeng said: Everyone has been tired for a few days, and they are not at this time.I will rest in the woods tonight and rush back tomorrow morning.
There was a strange sound behind him, and a moving mule in the team suddenly leaned forward and his front legs fell to the ground.
White foam flowed out of its mouth and nose, and its neck spasmed and twisted for a few times, then stopped moving.
Yi Biao leaned over and looked at it. He was so tired that he was exhausted, right?
Qi Yuan said anxiously: Be careful of poisonous insects!
Wu Zhanwei next to him pulled out his long sword, and slapped the back of the knife on the mule with a snap.
Wu Zhanwei slowly raised the knife, and his face changed suddenly.
Under the knife is a vermilion insect. It has two tentacles on its forehead, its waist is very thin, and two pairs of transparent wings, one big and one small behind it. The dark red patterns on the wings are like skeletons.
At the end of its huge tail, a sharp prick pierces deep into the mule's back.
Ghost-faced bee!
Qi Yuan shouted.
Before he finished speaking, an ominous buzzing sounded from the depths of the forest, as if countless poisonous bees were swarming towards this side.
The guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce drew their weapons and stared at the forest with caution.
Hua Miao people walking in front also stopped and turned their heads to look here.
Put away the knife!
The guards turned their heads and stared at Qi Yuan.Qi Yuan didn't care about explanation, and drew his knife to cut open a bamboo basket on the horse's back, and more than ten bound torches rolled out.
The beeping sound was getting closer and closer, and Qi Yuan threw the torch to everyone and shouted: Light up!Smoke with smoke!
Yi Hu, who had a beard on his face, waved his hand, and his guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce immediately put away their weapons, picked up a torch made of parchment sticks and mugwort, and lit it.
Fortunately, Qi Yuanning was quick and as soon as the first torch was lit, a few vermilion-red poisonous bees flew out of the forest.
The poisonous bees are several times larger than ordinary bees, with strange compound eyes on their foreheads, and their waists are thin and curved. When they fly straight, their tails are thrust forward, revealing the hook-shaped stings, which are as red as blood drops.
Once the torch made of pachin sticks is lit, thick smoke will be produced.Xiao Wei waved the torch to drive away the poisonous bees, and everyone hurriedly gathered the horses and mules.
Several ghost-faced bees were smoked by thick smoke and flew away everywhere, flying in the air with complex figures.
More poisonous bees flew out from the dark forest one after another, like vermilion meteors shooting out.
Behind them, countless poisonous bees gathered into a dark red tide, buzzing out from the depths of the forest.
Everyone changed their faces. The number of bee tides was no less than 10,000. There were more than 30 people in two caravans, more than 40 mules and horses, and they could not resist them by just a dozen torches made of pachy sticks and mugwort.
Even Wu Erlang's skills may not be able to block the omnipresent attacks of these tens of thousands of poisonous bees.
The ghost-faced bees seemed very afraid of the thick smoke burning from the pony sticks. They gathered more and more outside the smoke. Countless compound eyes flashed with strange red light at the same time, and the provoked tail needles seemed like countless blood-devouring pointed hooks.
Suddenly, a poisonous bee bypassed the thick smoke and shot into the neck of a guard.
The guard reached out to pat him, but he froze halfway through his hand. He opened his mouth, but no sound happened. His eyes were wide open and his body was filled with a fit, and he fell to the ground, exasperated on the spot.
Then several poisonous bees bypassed the thick smoke and poured out a few mules and horses.
Those ghost-faced bees are amazingly venomous. Even the military-style horses brought by the guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce cannot resist the poisonous bees. The blood-red pointed hook of the bee tail pierced into the body and died.
The mules and horses made short neighs one after another and fell to the ground.
The rest of the horses sniffed the danger and pricked up their ears uneasily.
The ghost-faced bee is so poisonous that it can make anyone shudder.Cheng Zongyang also got a torch, and before he could ignite it, he was firmly taken by a palm next to him.
This is not a solution.
Xie Yi lit a torch and smoked it, and the number of ghost-faced bees will only increase.Their hives must be found and the queens must be removed.
Seeing the caravan being attacked by poisonous bees, the Huamiao people also turned back.
They discussed with caution, and finally Su Li said a few words, and the flower seedling men sang together.
While singing, they slapped their chests with short knives, making chops and jumps.
Su Li walked over and said: The wrath of the God of the Forest is to calm the dance of the gods with sacrifice.
Su Li's exposed skin was not covered at all. Any poisonous bee that fell on her body might take her life, but Su Li was not afraid at all. She drew out the scimitar and walked into the bee colony like that.
The huge and blood-red poisonous bees were flying, and the ghost-faced skeleton patterns on the wings kept shaking, and a heart-pounding buzzing sound came.When strangers stepped into their territory, the ghost-faced bees became furious.
Su Li's fiery red pleated skirt was swaying, and her long snow-white legs with tattoos appeared and disappeared in the skirt.
She waved her scimitar while making strange chants, her smooth calves swinging and her naked soles gently beat the rhythm.
The ghost-faced bees were attracted by her and flew over and flew around Su Li's body.
The poisonous bees became denser and denser, like a layer of red smoke, wrapping Su Li's long figure in it.
From time to time, poisonous bees hit the scimitar, making the sound of gold and stone impact, but none of them touched Su Li's dress and naked skin.
Wu Erlang pulled out a piece of cowhide from the goods and tore open the head, face and exposed hands and feet.Cheng Zongyang grabbed him, you want to die!
Wu Erlang snorted, grabbed a torch and was about to break into the bee swarm.
Squat down!
Cheng Zongyang gritted his teeth and whispered: If you can do the Huamiao people's sacrifices, you can go.If you don’t know, just squat with me!
In the bee swarm, Su Li raised her white palm and shook it behind her, indicating that they should not move.Wu Erlang was relieved, and while shook the cowhide and patted a single ghost-faced bee to pieces.
The man with Huamiao suddenly became louder.A strange wave came from the swarm, and the buzzing sound became even more aroused, as if it was being irritated.
Su Li sang an ancient sacrificial song in his voice, slowly stepped into the forest, and the ghost-faced bees flew away.The remaining few people who escaped the net were either dispersed by thick smoke or beaten to death by Wu Erlang and others.
The men of flower seedlings danced while holding their knives, echoing the buzzing sound of the bee swarm with their singing.
The crisis faced by the caravan was temporarily lifted, Cheng Zongyang immediately asked for two torches, held them in one hand, and followed them, and Xie Yi followed silently.
Then Wu Zhanwei, Xiao Wei and Shi Gang also chased after him.
They were half curious and half worried about the safety of the Huamiao Matriarch.
The light in the forest was extremely dark, and the light of the butter torch was only about a foot out and was swallowed by the darkness.
Cheng Zongyang's six consciousnesses had much sharper spiritual awareness than before, and he could only see the red clouds made of poisonous bees and the slender figure in the bee shadow.
A tall figure snatched by Cheng Zongyang, Wu Erlang's fierce tiger-like body was unexpectedly agile, passing through the dense forest without making any sound.
Suddenly Wu Erlang stopped and raised his head.Cheng Zongyang raised the torch and saw a huge shadow hanging from the height of about a foot above his head.
It was a huge honeycomb, with a height of more than one meter. Its huge size pulled down the pine trees it attached to, like a huge lantern.
Countless vermilion-faced bees attached to the surface of the wax honeycomb.
They were densely drilled in and out between the beehives, and from time to time, ghost-faced bees with poisonous hooks flapped their wings and joined the swarm of bees hovering bees bees around Su Li.
Su Li gently patted the scimitar, singing and dancing.
Her dance posture was gentle and graceful, with bright red skirt fluttering among the bee shadows, and on her fair thighs, the blue-black tattoo faintly shined.
But Cheng Zongyang clearly saw the sweat beads on her forehead. The beehive was so large that it was beyond imagination. Her sacrificial songs might not be able to soothe these angry ghost-faced bees.
The more and more bees gathered, completely covering Su Li's figure.
Suddenly, a figure shot out like an arrow. Xie Yi waved the steel knife and slashed into the beehive with one knife. His knife slashed very deeply, almost even his shoulder was trapped in it.
In the horrified eyes of everyone, Xie Yi leaned into the beehive without stopping, and then flashed and exited.
His shirt was covered with golden bee wax and honey, and the steel knife bit it in his mouth, holding a huge ghost-faced bee in his hands.
The ghost-faced bee was several times larger than the poisonous bee bee bee bee bee bee bee bee around Su Li. It has a very long abdomen, and the sting needle at the tail end is like a blood-red pointed hook, slightly squirming on Xie Yi's hands.
Its wings are extremely short, covering only half of its abdomen, and it has lost its ability to fly, but the ghost-faced skull pattern on its wings is extremely thick.
Xie Yi grabbed the queen's wing root with one hand and the waist with the other. Although the blood-red bee hook could not hold on to push forward, Xie Yi's palm was as stable as a rock.
Xie Yi's face that bit the steel knife still had a calm and light smile, and even stuck out his tongue and licked the honey juice flowing from the back of the knife.
The flying bee swarm suddenly stopped and then flew towards Xie Yi.Xie Yi quietly tasted the sweetness of honey, then raised his shoulders, stepped back and swept the horizontal branches on the top of the nest, and then flew into the forest.
The huge compound eyes of the ghost-faced bee shot out bright red, flying past everyone like a tide, making a fierce buzzing sound.
Everyone, including Wu Erlang, held their breath and did not dare to move.
Fortunately, the poisonous bees ignored them and flew past them tightly against their bodies. Even the ghost-faced bees in the beehive were gone in a short while.
Su Li breathed a sigh of relief, her face turned slightly white, and her red skirt was already soaked in sweat. If Xie Yi had not suddenly taken action to plunder the queen, she would have been exhausted at this time and could no longer maintain the singing and dancing of the sacrificial peddler.
Wu Erlang roared, and his five fingers swung his back to Su Li's neck like a hook. He grabbed a ghost-faced bee that had attacked and twisted off its poisonous needle.
Su Li's long hair was also soaked with sweat, and the red flower on the side of her bun fell slightly to the side.
She smiled at Wu Erlang: Thank you.
Wu Erlang couldn't help but stretch out his hand and held the red flower on her bun.Then he realized his abruptness and said embarrassedly: It's wrong...
Su Li's hot phoenix eyes blinked at Wu Erlang, and then sang with a smile: Go up the mountains and look at the plains, there is a red peony on the river...
He walked over lightly while singing.
Cheng Zongyang whispered: Second Master, is it your heart wrong?
Wu Erlang opened his mouth and suddenly punched the tree, shaking the cracked beehive.
Wu Er?
I forgot the words.
When Ningyu finally climbed the Orangutan Cliff with Changsuo in his arms, half an hour had passed.The man from Huamiao enthusiastically pulled him away, but Ningyu dodged away.
Qi Yuan lay on the ground and gasped for a while.Cheng Zongyang handed over the pot of water. Qi Yuan took a few sips with difficulty, wiped the water droplets on his chin with his back, and grinned his teeth.After traveling to the Southern Wilderness for many years, my body and bones have ruined the miasma here.Ten years ago, I, Qi Si, did not breathe when I went back and forth between the two roads.
Cheng Zongyang smiled and said: It is said that the miasma in the Southern Wilderness is poisonous. What exactly is miasma?
The southern wilderness is humid and the climate is stuffy. The trees, flowers, birds, feathers, and beasts in the forest are steamed by the heat, and a layer of fog is generated. From a distance, it looks like the clouds in the forest. The colors are also beautiful, red, yellow, and blue.There will be peach blossom miasma in March, and there will be yellow plum miasma and snake miasma in June.I was infected with miasma, and I vomited from the upper and lower part of the body. I couldn't move for a few days, so the severe ones were not cured.
As he said that, Qi Yuan pointed to the women of the flower seedlings and whispered: Don’t look at the women in the Southern Wilderness who are born with water, but they are old quickly, and they are all caused by miasma.
Under the thick shade of the tree, A Xi, a girl in a goose yellow skirt, was scolded by the patriarch Su Li. She pouted and lowered her head in discontent.
The older Ajia was teased by A Xi and was so angry that she ignored her.
The other women of the flower seedlings were smiling and watching. They were like the first blooming flowers. Even if some were still angry, they were as beautiful as peach and plum.
Looking at the Ming Li girls, Qi Yuan, who was drinking water, was slightly lost and did not notice the water flowed to his neck.
Cheng Zongyang raised his hand and shook it in front of Qi Yuan's eyes. Hey, Lao Qi.
Well,
Qi Yuan woke up and regained his true nature in business. He laughed and then calmed down and said: They have helped us so much, and they just happened to see them off for the wedding.Head Cheng, we should also get some gifts to give.Huamiao people value love, and everything is easy to do if they have friendship.
OK.You pick a few and let's send them over.
Qi Yuan was a little embarrassed, but the goods we brought were not very suitable.
It is indeed inappropriate to use the medicinal materials, salt, cloth and iron tools brought by Baihu Shopping Mall as gifts.
Cheng Zongyang thought about it for a while and said with a smile: This is easy to deal with.The silk that Brother Yun brought with him was a ready-made gift.I discussed with him and picked a few good ones and sent them together, which was half of the two of us.
Qi Yuan smiled and said, OK!
Not long after Yun Cangfeng came up, Qi Yuan went over and said a few words. Yun Cangfeng immediately smiled on his tired face and ordered his subordinates to open the goods.
Everyone picked out a few pieces of silk wrapped in oil cloth, held it by Cheng Zongyang, and walked towards the Huamiao people with Yuncangfeng.
Su Li taught Ah Xi a lesson. When she saw Yun Cangfeng coming over, she knew that he was an identity in the caravan and took the initiative to greet the two of them.
Yun Cangfeng explained his purpose, and then smiled and said: I happened to encounter a happy event in the clan, and these little things are our wish.
The Yun Chamber of Commerce was well prepared, and the silks were wrapped in tart cloth, and they were still new along the way.Cheng Zongyang opened the oil cloth and a bright golden color overflowed.
This is the best Zhezhou silk. The golden silk surface is embroidered with bright intertwined roses. The colors are extremely gorgeous. Under the dark light, the fiery red roses seem to float on the golden silk, shining.
Su Li showed a surprise expression, she was so beautiful...
She couldn't help but touch it. The silk was as smooth as gentle water lines.
Such a valuable gift allows Huamiao people to feel the friendship of their guests.
Su Li generously accepted the gift and said to the two: No matter when the Yun Family Chamber of Commerce and Baihu Centre arrive at Huamiao, they are the most honorable guests of our Huamiao people.
The women of the flower seedlings chattered around the silk, and Ah Xi immediately forgot about what he had been scolded just now, and his cheeks were red as happy as those women.
Only the girl wearing a veil did not pass. She lowered her head slightly, and the white veil on her face was still moving, like a still picture.
Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Su Li said: She is the bride of Dragon God.The sacred Witch King ordered us to send the bride to the Bear Ear Shop and hand it over to his messenger, who would take her to the palace of the Dragon God.
Cheng Zongyang said: Witch King?Is the Ghost Witch King in Ghost King Cave?
Su Li nodded helplessly.
Cheng Zongyang exchanged glances with Yun Cangfeng.The Ghost Witch King's messenger was in Xionger Shop, and I don't know if they were the murderers of the Snake Yi Village bloody case.
Yun Cangfeng coughed, the people from Guiwangdong also arrived at Huadiao?
After talking, everyone realized that the power of Guiwangdong had already crossed the Ranjiang River and extended to the territory of Huamiao people two months ago.
Faced with the strength of Ghost King Dong, Ayi Suli, who had just become the leader of Hua Miao tribe, finally chose to surrender and became a vassal of Ghost King Dong like most tribes in the Southern Wilderness.
Guiwangdong asks all the vassal tribes for various tributes every year - including three of the most beautiful girls.One bride as the Dragon God, the other two will be dedicated to the Witch King for his enjoyment.
There are various legends about the Witch King in the Ghost King's Cave in the Southern Wilderness. Some people say that he has three heads, which are blessed by the gods of heaven, earth and dragon god; some people say that he wears a mask made of skeletons and sits on the throne made of black iron, while the Dragon God is hidden under his seat; some people say that the slaves served by the Witch King are all ghost slaves made by him by himself.
The most widely circulated saying is that the Ghost Witch King has to have sex with a beautiful virgin every day and treat her as food.
The messenger from Guiwangdong told the Huamiao people that the messenger of the Witch King would stay in Xionger Shop for a while and asked them to deliver the tribute as soon as possible.
After a fierce quarrel, the Huamiao people still chose their own tribute.
The most beautiful girl in the clan was chosen as the bride of the Dragon God. According to the custom of the Dragon God's marriage, she will wear a veil and no longer let mortals see her face.
Ajia and Axi were gifts dedicated to the Witch King.
Ajia was worried about her future fate, but the young Axi was still innocent and had some small pranks along the way, without a moment of peace.
After being scolded by Su Li, Ah Xi only stayed calm for a while, then slipped over and fiddled with the pulley, and pulled Yi Biao to ask questions.
Her arms and calves were naked, revealing large areas of snow-white skin, and her behavior was very casual, almost putting half of her body on Yi Biao.
Yi Biao was born in the military and had never seen such a formation. He was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his eyes. His face turned red like a cooked prawn, which made Wu Zhanwei joke later.
After resting, everyone set out on the road again.It was still daylight at this moment, but the forest was as dark as late as the night.Wu Zhanwei wanted to light a torch, but was stopped by Hua Miao people.
Too many fires will alarm the god of the forest.
Kava said: Follow our footprints. As long as the footprints of Huamiao people are still there, they will not let their friends get lost.
Kava walked in front with a torch, and the ingenious flower seedling men divided into two rows, protecting the bride and her group in the middle.
The caravan followed behind more than ten steps, and only Wu Erlang was shamelessly mixed with the Hua Miao people, joking with Su Li in a man's words that they couldn't understand.
Xie Yi took the horse and inadvertently stepped forward a few steps forward, walking side by side with Cheng Zongyang and Yun Cangfeng.
Legend has it that there is a kind of flower in the southern wilderness. Usually, the buds are closed and the singing and ringtones will bloom nearby.
Yun Cangfeng chatted: Unfortunately, not many people have seen it.Someone once picked a plant and wanted to transport it to the inland for sale, but it died as soon as it passed the mouth of Bailongjiang River.
Jade bell flowers.
Xie Yi smiled faintly and said: I have seen it in a book.There is also a kind of song that sings the grass, which will dance with the sound when the song sounds.
Yun Cangfeng nodded frequently while picking his beard. Brother Xie is really knowledgeable.The man was in good condition when he was trafficking that day, but as soon as he passed the mouth of Bailongjiang River, all the flowers and leaves withered. I wonder why?
Xie Yi thought for a while, maybe, the jade bell flowers and song grass are like the people in the Southern Wilderness, and the roots are all in the Southern Wilderness. Once they leave the Southern Wilderness, they will wither.
Cheng Zongyang was very interested in Xie Yi's sword technique. Brother Xie's sword technique must be very good, right?
Xie Yi smiled and said: Just barely defend yourself.
Are you interested in teaching me some of my skills?
Cheng Zongyang said: I will use the Baiwu clan’s first unique skill - the Five Tiger Broken Gate Sword to exchange it for you!

Cheng Zongyang looked at him for a while and suddenly smiled, "Don't lie to me."If your sword technique is as ordinary as you said, wouldn’t you be happy to hear me using the Five Tiger Break Door Knife to exchange it with you?
Xie Yi smiled and said: Sword is the ancestor of hundreds of soldiers, and sword is the king of hundreds of soldiers.There are more than a thousand sword techniques in the world?The Five Tigers Broken Door Knife is a unique skill among swords, which is thousands of times better than what Xie learned.However, Xie's sword technique is different from the Five Tiger Broken Door Sword practice, so it cannot be forced.
Cheng Zongyang said: Aren’t it all a knife?What are the differences?
Xie Yi smiled slightly, pulled out an ordinary steel knife from the side of the saddle, handed it out without any fancy, splitting a branch, making his tricks very ordinary.
If a woodcutter saw it, he would definitely attract Xie Yi as his confidant.
His knife was like a woodcutter who had been cutting wood for many years. The center of gravity of the steel knife was falling on the branch. Using the weight of the knife body, the force was not too much or too little, and it just cut off the branch.
The angle, landing point and force are all extremely accurate.
But in Cheng Zongyang's eyes, he was pretty and looked at the blind man.He could not see anything at this moment, and he instinctively felt that his origin was not simple.
Xie Yi put away the knife in a little disappointed manner, and suddenly became energetic. If Brother Cheng wants to learn swordsmanship, I know an expert who uses swordsmanship.When I returned from the Southern Wilderness, how about I visit with Brother Cheng?
That's OK.
Cheng Zongyang agreed immediately.
Qi Yuan caught up and said: Cheng Touer and Deacon Yun have been delayed for more than an hour at Tengqiao. I am afraid I won’t be able to get tonight.
Yun Cangfeng said: Everyone has been tired for a few days, and they are not at this time.I will rest in the woods tonight and rush back tomorrow morning.
There was a strange sound behind him, and a moving mule in the team suddenly leaned forward and his front legs fell to the ground.
White foam flowed out of its mouth and nose, and its neck spasmed and twisted for a few times, then stopped moving.
Yi Biao leaned over and looked at it. He was so tired that he was exhausted, right?
Qi Yuan said anxiously: Be careful of poisonous insects!
Wu Zhanwei next to him pulled out his long sword, and slapped the back of the knife on the mule with a snap.
Wu Zhanwei slowly raised the knife, and his face changed suddenly.
Under the knife is a vermilion insect. It has two tentacles on its forehead, its waist is very thin, and two pairs of transparent wings, one big and one small behind it. The dark red patterns on the wings are like skeletons.
At the end of its huge tail, a sharp prick pierces deep into the mule's back.
Ghost-faced bee!
Qi Yuan shouted.
Before he finished speaking, an ominous buzzing sounded from the depths of the forest, as if countless poisonous bees were swarming towards this side.
The guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce drew their weapons and stared at the forest with caution.
Hua Miao people walking in front also stopped and turned their heads to look here.
Put away the knife!
The guards turned their heads and stared at Qi Yuan.Qi Yuan didn't care about explanation, and drew his knife to cut open a bamboo basket on the horse's back, and more than ten bound torches rolled out.
The beeping sound was getting closer and closer, and Qi Yuan threw the torch to everyone and shouted: Light up!Smoke with smoke!
Yi Hu, who had a beard on his face, waved his hand, and his guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce immediately put away their weapons, picked up a torch made of parchment sticks and mugwort, and lit it.
Fortunately, Qi Yuanning was quick and as soon as the first torch was lit, a few vermilion-red poisonous bees flew out of the forest.
The poisonous bees are several times larger than ordinary bees, with strange compound eyes on their foreheads, and their waists are thin and curved. When they fly straight, their tails are thrust forward, revealing the hook-shaped stings, which are as red as blood drops.
Once the torch made of pachin sticks is lit, thick smoke will be produced.Xiao Wei waved the torch to drive away the poisonous bees, and everyone hurriedly gathered the horses and mules.
Several ghost-faced bees were smoked by thick smoke and flew away everywhere, flying in the air with complex figures.
More poisonous bees flew out from the dark forest one after another, like vermilion meteors shooting out.
Behind them, countless poisonous bees gathered into a dark red tide, buzzing out from the depths of the forest.
Everyone changed their faces. The number of bee tides was no less than 10,000. There were more than 30 people in two caravans, more than 40 mules and horses, and they could not resist them by just a dozen torches made of pachy sticks and mugwort.
Even Wu Erlang's skills may not be able to block the omnipresent attacks of these tens of thousands of poisonous bees.
The ghost-faced bees seemed very afraid of the thick smoke burning from the pony sticks. They gathered more and more outside the smoke. Countless compound eyes flashed with strange red light at the same time, and the provoked tail needles seemed like countless blood-devouring pointed hooks.
Suddenly, a poisonous bee bypassed the thick smoke and shot into the neck of a guard.
The guard reached out to pat him, but he froze halfway through his hand. He opened his mouth, but no sound happened. His eyes were wide open and his body was filled with a fit, and he fell to the ground, exasperated on the spot.
Then several poisonous bees bypassed the thick smoke and poured out a few mules and horses.
Those ghost-faced bees are amazingly venomous. Even the military-style horses brought by the guards of the Yun Chamber of Commerce cannot resist the poisonous bees. The blood-red pointed hook of the bee tail pierced into the body and died.
The mules and horses made short neighs one after another and fell to the ground.
The rest of the horses sniffed the danger and pricked up their ears uneasily.
The ghost-faced bee is so poisonous that it can make anyone shudder.Cheng Zongyang also got a torch, and before he could ignite it, he was firmly taken by a palm next to him.
This is not a solution.
Xie Yi lit a torch and smoked it, and the number of ghost-faced bees will only increase.Their hives must be found and the queens must be removed.
Seeing the caravan being attacked by poisonous bees, the Huamiao people also turned back.
They discussed with caution, and finally Su Li said a few words, and the flower seedling men sang together.
While singing, they slapped their chests with short knives, making chops and jumps.
Su Li walked over and said: The wrath of the God of the Forest is to calm the dance of the gods with sacrifice.
Su Li's exposed skin was not covered at all. Any poisonous bee that fell on her body might take her life, but Su Li was not afraid at all. She drew out the scimitar and walked into the bee colony like that.
The huge and blood-red poisonous bees were flying, and the ghost-faced skeleton patterns on the wings kept shaking, and a heart-pounding buzzing sound came.When strangers stepped into their territory, the ghost-faced bees became furious.
Su Li's fiery red pleated skirt was swaying, and her long snow-white legs with tattoos appeared and disappeared in the skirt.
She waved her scimitar while making strange chants, her smooth calves swinging and her naked soles gently beat the rhythm.
The ghost-faced bees were attracted by her and flew over and flew around Su Li's body.
The poisonous bees became denser and denser, like a layer of red smoke, wrapping Su Li's long figure in it.
From time to time, poisonous bees hit the scimitar, making the sound of gold and stone impact, but none of them touched Su Li's dress and naked skin.
Wu Erlang pulled out a piece of cowhide from the goods and tore open the head, face and exposed hands and feet.Cheng Zongyang grabbed him, you want to die!
Wu Erlang snorted, grabbed a torch and was about to break into the bee swarm.
Squat down!
Cheng Zongyang gritted his teeth and whispered: If you can do the Huamiao people's sacrifices, you can go.If you don’t know, just squat with me!
In the bee swarm, Su Li raised her white palm and shook it behind her, indicating that they should not move.Wu Erlang was relieved, and while shook the cowhide and patted a single ghost-faced bee to pieces.
The man with Huamiao suddenly became louder.A strange wave came from the swarm, and the buzzing sound became even more aroused, as if it was being irritated.
Su Li sang an ancient sacrificial song in his voice, slowly stepped into the forest, and the ghost-faced bees flew away.The remaining few people who escaped the net were either dispersed by thick smoke or beaten to death by Wu Erlang and others.
The men of flower seedlings danced while holding their knives, echoing the buzzing sound of the bee swarm with their singing.
The crisis faced by the caravan was temporarily lifted, Cheng Zongyang immediately asked for two torches, held them in one hand, and followed them, and Xie Yi followed silently.
Then Wu Zhanwei, Xiao Wei and Shi Gang also chased after him.
They were half curious and half worried about the safety of the Huamiao Matriarch.
The light in the forest was extremely dark, and the light of the butter torch was only about a foot out and was swallowed by the darkness.
Cheng Zongyang's six consciousnesses had much sharper spiritual awareness than before, and he could only see the red clouds made of poisonous bees and the slender figure in the bee shadow.
A tall figure snatched by Cheng Zongyang, Wu Erlang's fierce tiger-like body was unexpectedly agile, passing through the dense forest without making any sound.
Suddenly Wu Erlang stopped and raised his head.Cheng Zongyang raised the torch and saw a huge shadow hanging from the height of about a foot above his head.
It was a huge honeycomb, with a height of more than one meter. Its huge size pulled down the pine trees it attached to, like a huge lantern.
Countless vermilion-faced bees attached to the surface of the wax honeycomb.
They were densely drilled in and out between the beehives, and from time to time, ghost-faced bees with poisonous hooks flapped their wings and joined the swarm of bees hovering bees bees around Su Li.
Su Li gently patted the scimitar, singing and dancing.
Her dance posture was gentle and graceful, with bright red skirt fluttering among the bee shadows, and on her fair thighs, the blue-black tattoo faintly shined.
But Cheng Zongyang clearly saw the sweat beads on her forehead. The beehive was so large that it was beyond imagination. Her sacrificial songs might not be able to soothe these angry ghost-faced bees.
The more and more bees gathered, completely covering Su Li's figure.
Suddenly, a figure shot out like an arrow. Xie Yi waved the steel knife and slashed into the beehive with one knife. His knife slashed very deeply, almost even his shoulder was trapped in it.
In the horrified eyes of everyone, Xie Yi leaned into the beehive without stopping, and then flashed and exited.
His shirt was covered with golden bee wax and honey, and the steel knife bit it in his mouth, holding a huge ghost-faced bee in his hands.
The ghost-faced bee was several times larger than the poisonous bee bee bee bee bee bee bee bee around Su Li. It has a very long abdomen, and the sting needle at the tail end is like a blood-red pointed hook, slightly squirming on Xie Yi's hands.
Its wings are extremely short, covering only half of its abdomen, and it has lost its ability to fly, but the ghost-faced skull pattern on its wings is extremely thick.
Xie Yi grabbed the queen's wing root with one hand and the waist with the other. Although the blood-red bee hook could not hold on to push forward, Xie Yi's palm was as stable as a rock.
Xie Yi's face that bit the steel knife still had a calm and light smile, and even stuck out his tongue and licked the honey juice flowing from the back of the knife.
The flying bee swarm suddenly stopped and then flew towards Xie Yi.Xie Yi quietly tasted the sweetness of honey, then raised his shoulders, stepped back and swept the horizontal branches on the top of the nest, and then flew into the forest.
The huge compound eyes of the ghost-faced bee shot out bright red, flying past everyone like a tide, making a fierce buzzing sound.
Everyone, including Wu Erlang, held their breath and did not dare to move.
Fortunately, the poisonous bees ignored them and flew past them tightly against their bodies. Even the ghost-faced bees in the beehive were gone in a short while.
Su Li breathed a sigh of relief, her face turned slightly white, and her red skirt was already soaked in sweat. If Xie Yi had not suddenly taken action to plunder the queen, she would have been exhausted at this time and could no longer maintain the singing and dancing of the sacrificial peddler.
Wu Erlang roared, and his five fingers swung his back to Su Li's neck like a hook. He grabbed a ghost-faced bee that had attacked and twisted off its poisonous needle.
Su Li's long hair was also soaked with sweat, and the red flower on the side of her bun fell slightly to the side.
She smiled at Wu Erlang: Thank you.
Wu Erlang couldn't help but stretch out his hand and held the red flower on her bun.Then he realized his abruptness and said embarrassedly: It's wrong...
Su Li's hot phoenix eyes blinked at Wu Erlang, and then sang with a smile: Go up the mountains and look at the plains, there is a red peony on the river...
He walked over lightly while singing.
Cheng Zongyang whispered: Second Master, is it your heart wrong?
Wu Erlang opened his mouth and suddenly punched the tree, shaking the cracked beehive.
Wu Er?
I forgot the words.
