Chapter 642: To the Jiuli Clan (Second Update)
Zhang Qian was more than eleven o'clock in the afternoon, arrived in Qingmang Town, and at more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and Gu Li entered the mountain.
The two walked in the mountains for about three hours, and at half past five in the afternoon, the sky began to gradually darken, and Gu Li said: "Mr. Zhang, about another hour and a half, we can reach the outermost Miao village in the mountains!"
"The people in that village know how to get to the small village in the deepest part of the mountain and the inner Miao people! I can only send you there, because I am not familiar with the road behind!"
Zhang Qian smiled and said, "Okay! Just send me to that village! I'll find someone to take me there!"
"Hmm!" Gu Li nodded and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are not a Miao person, what are you doing in the mountains? The Miao people in the mountains are very repulsive to outsiders! They rarely come out! Even if they come out, they will only deal with us, not with outsiders!"
Zhang Qian said: "I know this, you just need to send me to the place, and there will be someone there to pick me up!"
"Okay!" Hearing Zhang Qian say this, Gu Li didn't say much, anyway, he had already reminded Zhang Qian, so he and Zhang Qian continued to hurry, about half past six in the afternoon, close to seven o'clock, and took Zhang Qian to a Miao village in the outermost part of the mountain,
When he was in Miao Village, the sky was already very dark, and it was about to get dark, Gu Li said: "Mr. Zhang, let's find a family here to stay for one night, tomorrow morning, I will return to the town, and when we find someone to spend the night, you must not talk, otherwise, others will not take you in!"
Zhang Qian smiled and said, "No need, you help me inquire about someone in the village, call Zhana, find her, I naturally have a place to live!"
Before Li Yingying left, she had explained to Zhang Qian that she would send someone to pick up Zhang Qian in a Miao village on the outskirts of the mountain, and then take Zhang Qian into their Jiuli village, and tell Zhang Qian that the person's name was Zhana, and she was a maid by Li Yingying's side.
So Zhang Qian came here, as long as he found Zhana, the other party would arrange everything for him.
Gu Li said: "Okay, then I will help you to inquire, but when I inquire, you must not speak, otherwise, they will recognize you as an outsider and will not tell me anything!"
Zhang Qian nodded, the two entered the stockade, as soon as they entered the stockade, before Gu Li went to ask someone, they saw a young woman wearing Miao clothes walking towards them, their eyes carefully looked at Zhang Qian, and saw that he was wearing a cloak, very young, so he said in non-standard Mandarin: "Are you a rebel?"
Li Yingying once told Zhang Qian that although their Jiuli tribe is isolated from the world, they still pay attention to the outside world, and they also learn the language of the outside world and planting techniques, so there are also some people in the Jiuli tribe who know Chinese.
(For the convenience of viewing, the language of each place will not be explained in the future, and it will be unified with Chinese)
Seeing that the other party came, he directly said his name, and Zhang Qian asked the Miao girl, "Are you Li Yingying's maid, Zhana?"
The Miao woman nodded and said, "It seems that you are the rebel, the patriarch asked me to wait for you here and take you to our Jiuli tribe!"
Zhang Qian smiled and said, "Then thank you Miss Zana!" In fact, even if Li Yingying didn't send someone to pick him up, he could find it by himself, but it wasn't so convenient.
Zhana said: "You're welcome, please come with me! But from now on, you have to use the pseudonym of our Miao people, otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble! I have already helped you think of a name in advance, it is called Baoka, what do you think?"
Zhang Qian smiled and said, "Baoka? It's good! Thank you Miss Zana!" He doesn't care about the pseudonym, since the other party has already helped her think about it, let's follow the local customs.
After Zhang Qian said goodbye to Gu Li, he followed Zhana towards the inside of the village, walked for about ten minutes, and arrived in front of a somewhat dilapidated stilted building, Zhana said: "I want to wronged you for a few days, the conditions here are limited, not comparable to our Jiuli tribe, let alone the outside, today we will stay here for one night, and then tomorrow during the day!"
He also said: "It is about seven days away from our Jiuli tribe, and we have to pass through three Miao villages in the middle, so there are three nights for us to spend the night in the mountains, you have to be prepared, and when you are in the Miao village, you had better not communicate with other people, otherwise, it will be easy to expose your identity!"
Zhang Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay!"
None of this is a problem for him, has he never spent the night in the mountains, when he went to Wushan, he spent a night in his heart with Zhang Yourou, and in the Yin and Yang array of Abe's eyes, he stayed in the cave with Chiba Xue for several days.
Moreover, when he was training in the universe, he had been to even harsher environments, and the impact of the natural environment on him was almost minimal.
Zhang Qian followed Zhana into the stilted building, although the conditions inside are simple and cannot be compared with the modern city, but the inside is very clean and tidy, and it looks like it has a different flavor.
Zhana went down the wooden ladder to the attic above, took out a set of men's Miao clothes from the attic, and asked Zhang Qian to change into it, Zhang Qian did not postpone it, the reason why he wore a cloak was because the people in the metropolis were too dense, and he didn't want to easily attract the attention of others.
In the Jiuli clan, he has no such scruples, after all, the Jiuli clan is isolated from the world and has almost no contact with the outside world.
After changing into Miao clothes, Zhang Qian instantly changed his appearance and became a Miao elder brother, but the transcendent temperament on his body could not be concealed.
After making these preparations, Zhang Qian and Zhana spent the night in the stockade, Zhang Qian sat all night, Zhana rested in the attic, and early in the second morning, the two set off from the stockade and went to the depths of the 100,000 mountains.
On the way, the two spent three nights in Shanda, and then borrowed three nights from the homes of the other three Miao villagers, and on the evening of the seventh day, they arrived at the outside of the formation and illusion of the Jiuli tribe's territory.
This is already the deepest part of the 100,000 mountains, full of swamps, poisons, and obstacles, but the scenery is very charming, with green mountains and green waters, and beautiful trees and strange peaks.
Zhana took Zhang Qian to a winding river, pulled out a small boat from the reeds by the river, and said: "Walking from the waterway, you can directly enter the cottage of our Jiuli tribe, the formations and illusions in the waterway are much simpler than those in the mountains, you only need to remember the illusion of a few curves, and avoid a few formations to form a torrent!"
