Chapter 116: Sacrifice

"I don't know if Old Man Hua has heard of the desert ghost doctor Feng Jiuyin?"

Qu Ziyan put the porcelain bowl in his hand on the table and looked at the old man with a smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Desert ghost doctor? have you heard..... It's not a good thing....."

The old man searched his memory desperately for the face that corresponded to the name. The impression is a merry face, and a pair of gray eyes that make people feel ominous.

"What's wrong with him? Isn't he notoriously elusive?"

"Ah, it's just that I happen to know him, and he happens to be willing to help me......"

Qu Ziyan leaned on the bedpost, her eyebrows and eyes were full of laziness, "If this situation of the little thing drags on like this, I'm afraid that she will become wrong even if she wakes up by then, you said that it is not a good thing to be in a coma all the time......"

"What do you want to say?"

Old man Hua vaguely felt that he could already guess the words behind Qu Ziyan.

"That guy may not be cured of anything else, but he is the best at incurable diseases, and he also saved me when Mochen and I had an accident.

"I've heard that guy has a bad reputation out there, but he has a good relationship with little things, and he won't just watch her go on like this.

"If you want me to say, old man Hua, you must have a way to let him come to Miaojiang, right?"

Qu Ziyan said a lot in one breath, and the old man picked the most important sentence in it to listen to.

"You want me to find a way to get him into Miao Jiang. ”

It's not an interrogative sentence, it's an affirmation.

"Yes. ”

Qu Ziyan nodded, "I believe that you must be able to, plus that Chu Qiao's ability, it shouldn't be a big problem to get someone in." “

"Don't you think we've had too many guests here lately?"

Old man Hua was naturally worried about Xia Qing, and Chu Qiao was the same, but at the same time, they also had to consider the safety of the people of Miaojiang.

They have lived in seclusion for generations, and for so many years, it has not been something they have ever done for generations to enter three living people into the village at once.

This is already a precedent.

"It's not that I don't want to, a person with the status of a desert ghost doctor, it's hard for me to let him in at ease.

"What's more, if you want to enter Miao Jiang, the Void Forest is the first step.

"No one has yet been able to enter the Void Forest without being discovered. It was known to the Presbyterians that the current saint was not enough to compete.

"Do you think I can grant your request?"

The old man put the questions in front of Qu Ziyan one by one, "Qu Ziyan, is it a little too difficult for you to let him in?"

Of course, Qu Ziyan also thought of this. But that's not what he's thinking about.

If he really wanted to let someone in, he still had a way to do it, but now it seems that the main problem is the distrust of Old Man Hua and Chu Qiao.

"Since you've said so, then I don't have anything to say, but just pity my little thing..... saved the life of the saint, but she has to lie here and don't know when she will wake up, the point is that it can't be used even if there is a way. ”

Qu Ziyan squatted down and gently stroked Xia Qing's slightly pale face.

"Since Gongzi Qu said that he could save Xia Qing's sister, let him in. ”

Chu Qiao walked in from the door.

She actually arrived very early, but as soon as she walked to the door, she heard the conversation between Old Man Hua and Qu Ziyan, "Xia Qing became like this because of saving me, the last thing I want in my life is to owe people family favors, Xia Qing gave me this favor is so big that I don't want to pay it back?"

Chu Qiao ignored Old Man Hua's stopping eyes, and also walked to Xia Qing's side, "Is she better?"

"It's better, but I just don't wake up. Even you, an old man with good medical skills, can't wake her up. ”

Qu Ziyan's fair-skinned and slender hand stroked Xia Qing's head for a while.

"It's me who is sorry for her. ”

Chu Qiao stared deeply at Xia Qing's little face, with a serious expression, "I have now calmed down the turmoil outside, and now I can deal with Xia Qing's body wholeheartedly." In this case, you go and inform your friend to hurry up and get ready, and the people of the Holy Maiden will pick him up at a later date. ”

"Holy Maiden......!"

The old man pulled Chu Qiao's sleeve, his face full of disapproval.

"Xia Qing's kindness, I Chu Qiao may not be able to pay it off in my life, and it's not too late to have a glimmer of hope to save her now.

"I have a sense of proportion, old man, so we will listen to Qu Gongzi about this matter. ”

Chu Qiao pulled the old man's hand holding her sleeve tightly, "This is an order." ”

Old Man Hua looked at Chu Qiao's unusually determined expression, knowing that she had made up her mind and could no longer shake her thoughts, and her tone could only soften, "Then what are you going to do?"

"Isn't the June Festival coming?"

"You..... Are you going to ......"

"There is one more person who goes out to buy items. ”

The June Festival is a big festival in Miaojiang.

Over the years, whenever it is the June Festival, the people of Miao Jiang will take the initiative to wear Miao clothes, women pin white flowers on their heads, and men pin a white thread on their chests.

This is a tribute to the saints of the ages.

Every household is required to be vegetarian for the first three days before and three days after the June Festival, and they are not allowed to kill.

Paste a totem symbolizing the saint of Miao Jiang on the door of the house to show respect for the former saint.

This is also the reason why the former saint did not get lost when she returned.

The totem is pasted all the way to the Holy Maiden's Mansion, and the largest totem is pasted on the gate of the Holy Maiden's Mansion, which is the name of the Holy Maiden of the past dynasties, so that they can all come to the Holy Maiden's Mansion on the day of the June Festival.

The whole of Miao Jiang has a serious atmosphere these days in the June Festival.

No one dares to slack off.

After all, the dead are greater.

And this time is also very special, because it is the day when the former saint died on the day of exactly ten years.

Everyone doesn't seem to have forgotten the disaster that the former saint brought to Miao Jiang.

But no matter what you think, the June Festival still has to be treated.

It was also the busiest day at the Saintess Grandpa.

Inside, the maids and men all went in and out, preparing things for the sacrifice and preparing things to be burned for the former saints.

Everyone is busy but orderly.

I started to get busy before dawn.

It wasn't until noon that everything needed was ready.

The elders and relatives also came early.

For the people of Miaojiang, sacrifice is a big event, and if it is done well, the wind and rain will be smooth, and everyone will be safe. If you can't do it well, you can't say that they are the next person to accompany the former saintess, so they don't dare to slack off.

Everyone takes their own responsibility seriously, and there is no time to pay attention to other people's affairs.

"Are you coming?"

"It's coming. “

In the hall, Chu Qiao sat on the main seat, looking at the elders and relatives who were busy outside.

Even Elder Qi, who was in a high position, was no exception today, holding the sacrificial things outside.

There is no way, she is not useful enough to be a saint, and she has no experience in such a difficult thing as presiding over sacrifices, so Elder Qi, who is worried that something will go wrong, can't take care of other things today, and only controls the overall situation outside.

Only one Ah Yu was left looking at Chu Qiao.

But this look is limited to watching her and don't run away.

In previous years, during the June Festival, Chu Qiao was always the only one who escaped.

She was reluctant to participate in her mother's sacrifice.

She said her mother didn't need someone else to come and sacrifice. It was enough for her to go to the grave and offer incense.

So every year in the June Festival, Chu Qiao's figure is basically not seen, if you want to find her, then go to the Holy Maiden's Tomb, in front of her mother's monument, where she is allowed to kneel.

But this year is special, the 10th anniversary, which means that this is an open and honest sacrifice, when all the people will watch the ceremony take place, and if the Holy Maiden disappears at this time, it will become a joke in the Holy Maiden's Mansion.

Therefore, Chu Qiao said that he was preparing for the surveillance ceremony, but in fact, he was monitored by the elders for freedom.

She sat on the main seat, looking at the busy outside, and she was very leisurely eating melon seeds.

"The Holy Maiden is worthy of being a Holy Maiden, she is always calm and calm, even if the pot is fried outside, you can still do your own thing safely. ”

Ah Yu had a sarcastic smile on his lips, and his eyes were also full of sarcasm.

"Hey, General Ayu praised it falsely, I will naturally have a moment of panic, for example, the last time I was assassinated, I almost died under the sharp arrow, you don't know how panicked I was at that time. “

Chu Qiao finished knocking a handful of melon seeds, and grabbed another handful from the jar, "The melon seeds produced by the sunflowers in the Hundred Flowers Valley, do you want to taste them?"

"No....."

Ah Yu's face was a little bad.

"Don't be polite to me, it's really delicious......."

"Your Excellency, you are needed outside. ”

Elder Qi walked into the back room with a cold old face, "Do you remember what you were going to say?"

"Remember, how can you not remember. ”

Chu Qiao clapped his hands, slapped off the ashes of the melon seeds, and wiped his face again, "Let's go, let's go, I've been waiting for a long time." ”
