The staff of 1,000 degrees is the supreme artifact of the Miao Wu clan, which is made of the essence gold of the fire in southern Xinjiang, smelted, and can increase the power of witchcraft by more than ten times, after thousands of years, passed down from generation to generation, and only one high priest in each generation can be operated, which is the identity and symbol of the high priest of the Miao Wu clan.

——Excerpt from "The Ink Book: Miao Wu Chapter"

As soon as Zack's words came out, Bai Miaozhong suddenly burst into a loud voice, and shouted noisily, and after a while, an old man with white hair stood up, this person seemed to have a deep prestige, and when everyone saw it, his voice gradually became quieter. Ke Ji grabbed Ye Jianan's arm and said softly, "He is our Bai Miao's Elder Tusuo, Elder Tusuo is very good and often takes care of us. But I heard Elder Tuso holding a cane, facing Zack, glaring at him and scolding, "Zach, you little rabbit cub, you are so bold that you dare to speak to the high priest like this, and you actually want to be the high priest yourself, hum!" Little cub! His crutches were heavily stabbed on the ground, and his white beard was shaking, obviously angry.

Bai Miao and Black Miao are originally a family, arranged according to generation, Zach is the son and nephew of Elder Tusuo, not to mention that Elder Tusuo is highly respected, although he is in Bai Miao, but among the black Miao, he is also quite influential. Zach lowered his head and replied in a loud voice, and after Elder Tusuo calmed down a little, Zack said again, "Elder Tusuo, according to your privacy, I should call you uncle, but now we are discussing the important matter of our Miao Wu, you are the elder of Bai Miao, I am the leader of Black Miao, I have a few words, I want to ask the high priest." Tusou was furious, but when Zach said this, he silently stepped aside.

But Zach shouted into the hole of the high priest, "High priest, we all respect you in our hearts, but, according to custom, when the high priest is old and weak, he should appoint the next high priest, just in case he goes west, the clan will not lose the high priest and become a mess." And high priest, if you are more than 100 years old, you should also appoint the next high priest. That's the first point. ”

Among the white seedlings, although everyone was unconvinced, but listening to what Zack said at this time, there were many people who nodded secretly in their hearts. Zach looked around and continued to speak aloud, "Uncles, brothers and sisters, even if you don't want to say it, you all know in your heart that in recent years, the high priest has become more and more concerned about the affairs of the clan, and often sits alone in the cave, ignoring what is happening in our clan. The high priest is our leader, our leader, and he should lead us to development and prosperity, but as it is now, it is not in line with the high priest's practice. ”

Among the white seedlings, a few young men suddenly jumped out, "Shut up, you dare to say that the high priest is not." Zack didn't look at it, and among the black seedlings, dozens of people came out at once, each with a bright long knife pinned to his waist, dozens of people, lined up, standing neatly in front of Zack, glaring angrily. Bai Miao's young men were taken aback by this sudden momentum, and they were speechless for a moment.

Zack glanced at those people coldly, and said loudly, "As the saying goes, the big things can't bear a reason, I respect the high priest in my heart, and you are the same, the high priest is a matter of life and death for our Miao Wu, I, Zack, am really anxious, I can't sleep at night, so I have to offend the high priest." "The mountain wind blew, and only Zack's loud voice echoed, and the sun lay down and shone on the multicolored peaks, which was extremely bright, but the cave where the high priest was still dark.

After a long time, when Zach was already slightly impatient, a deep sigh came from the cave, and then an old voice sounded, "The person talking outside, but Zack?" A shadow gradually emerged from the cave, and the high priest walked out slowly with a black wooden staff.

I saw that the high priest was wearing a long garment of gold, with long gray hair dragging behind him, thin palms, wrinkled skin, and deep wrinkles on his face, one after another, this high priest was very old. As soon as the high priest came out, all the Miao Wu people present, whether white Miao or black Miao, all cheered at once.

The high priest slowly raised his hand, the void pressed, and suddenly, all the cheers stopped, and on the colorful peak, only the old voice of the high priest was heard, "Zack, just now, were you talking?" The high priest spoke very slowly, as if he had not heard anything just now.

Ye Jianan was curious, and looked towards the high priest, just as the high priest also looked here, as soon as the two made eye contact, Ye Jianan suddenly smiled in his heart, this high priest's eyes were clear, his eyes were clear, but with a cold and snowy atmosphere, this was like the eyes of an old man in a hundred years, and the figure of a woman in white instantly emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Zach seemed a little frightened, and he didn't dare to speak, but after a few breaths, his chest straightened, and he said loudly, "Yes, High Priest, I was talking just now." The High Priest looked up at Zack, as if looking at the naughty child in his own house, and after a moment, he sighed deeply, paused the black wooden staff, and said, "Zack, do you want to be the High Priest?" The plain and old voice suddenly sounded, Zach was startled, shook his head again and again, and then seemed to realize that what he had done was inappropriate, and nodded again, "High priest, you are a hundred years old this year, you are old, don't work too hard, leave these tedious affairs in the clan to the young people to do." ”

The High Priest nodded slowly, looking at the silent crowd in front of him, and said softly, "That's fine, Zack, then in three days, at the altar of the stockade, you will know then." Elder Tuso, leader Zack, when the time comes, bring all your people to the altar. ”

Tusuo and Zack nodded in response, the altar of the Miao Wu tribe, located in the middle of the village, is said to have been there a long time ago, the ancestors of the Miao Wu tribe discovered this altar, so they built a village with the altar as the center, until now, but if there is any major matter in the clan, they must first sacrifice at the altar, and then solve all kinds of things.

The high priest turned around slowly, and he could see that his movements were not very dexterous, but Ye Jianan was smiling secretly in his heart, and it was also thanks to her cold personality that she still learned so much when she dressed up. Zack was secretly depressed in his heart, today he brought so many people here, made all kinds of preparations, but was solved by the high priest's words such an understatement, he was very depressed in his heart, and was about to leave, his eyes swept away, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Keji and Ye Jianan in the crowd, he hesitated for a moment, turned around and said loudly, "High priest, Zack still has something to say." ”

The high priest paused, turned around, and saw that Zack didn't speak, Zach bowed and said, "High priest, I heard that yesterday, Keji, who fled from the Mo Ke brothers' family without permission, came back. When Mo Ke heard this, he was taken aback, he stepped forward a few steps, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Keji came back yesterday." How are you doing? Zack smiled, looked around, and said in a loud voice, "According to the rules of the Miao Wu clan, as long as I, the people of the Miao Wu clan, are not allowed to go out without permission, otherwise it will ......" He sneered and said in a paused voice, "Otherwise, it will be severely punished!" ”

Mo Ke hurriedly turned around, knelt down in the direction of the high priest, and pleaded, "High priest, when Keji left, he was only a seven or eight-year-old child. Over the years, I have been blaming myself all the time, and if I could have guarded it more strictly, I might have ...... it" Later, I was already a little choked.

Zach snorted coldly, "The clan rules are like a mountain, it's not that he can escape punishment when he is young, if everyone escapes punishment because he is young and ignorant, then a hundred years later, how should I deal with my Miao Wu clan!" Zach himself is burly and has a loud voice, and at this moment he deliberately accentuated his tone, and between his words, there was quite a momentum. I only heard him continue, "What's more! He even brought back two strangers! ”

The Miao Wu people have been hidden for many years to avoid dealing with the outside world, and there is a provision in the clan rules that the Miao Wu people are not allowed to deal with people outside their own clan, and foreigners are strictly forbidden to enter the Miao Wu tribe. Since the Miao Wu people built the village, no foreigners have appeared in the village.

What the! He brought back two strangers. When Keji came back last night, it was late at night, and most of the people had already slept behind closed doors, and all they knew was that Keji's family and Tashi and others who were guarding the colorful peak, so most of the clansmen didn't know about it.

Daddy Mo knew that it was not good, and shouted again and again, but when the crowd was agitated, his voice was like a flat boat in the sea, a wave hit, and it was drowned in the sea of voices in an instant. The high priest paused slightly, turned around, but Ye Jianan didn't know why, he only felt that the eyes of the high priest paused slightly, and stopped on him for a few breaths, but he saw the high priest stretch out his trembling hand, and raised it slightly, and all the sounds disappeared in an instant. I saw the high priest take a step forward slightly, face Mo Ke, and asked softly, "Mo Ke, what Zach said, but is it true?" ”

Mo Ke hurriedly rushed forward and knelt down, "High priest, they are my children's benefactors, if it weren't for them, Keji would have died in a foreign land, where can I return to the village and reunite with us." They...... Although they have violated the rules of the clan, they are here to save people, and if the high priest wants to punish them, they will punish me. Mo Ke raised his head and looked at the high priest and said. Keji and Kona hurriedly ran to Mo Ke's side and knelt down, Keji's eyes were full of tears, "High Priest, Keji is outside, and he has been bullied and scolded," he tore off his shirt with both hands, revealing his naked skin.

"Shhh The sound of various cold air sucking rose and fell, and the newborn sunlight illuminated dozens of interlaced scars on Keji's pale and thin body. Some of the scars have faded, and some of the scars have just formed scars, but Keji used a slight force, pulling the skin, the shackles broke, and faintly traces of blood flowed out. Ke Ji raised his head and said loudly, "If it weren't for Brother Ye and Brother Zhenyan to save me, I wouldn't have survived today." Now, they have broken the clan rules, so let's use Keji's life to bear the punishment for them! ”

Ye Jianan shook his head, and was about to step forward to speak, but saw Elder Tusuo take the lead, his eyes flickered, and he hesitated, "High priest, something happened suddenly, this is something that this Miao Wu has never done before, although, well, this clan rule stipulates that outsiders are not allowed to enter the land of my Miao Wu clan, but the tree has roots, and things have a reason, if ...... If we execute them according to the rules of the clan, will we not repay virtue with resentment, and we will not know what is right or wrong? ”

Ye Jianan snorted coldly in his heart, what kind of broken clan rules, outsiders come here, and they will be executed, and then he glanced at the high priest, only to see the high priest's eyes slightly open, just listening quietly. The sun shone on his wrinkled face, and he looked very old.

I heard Zach also step forward and said in a deep voice, "High priest, as the saying goes, there are no rules, there is no circle, my Miao Wu clan has been passed down for thousands of years, relying on the rules set by the ancestors. If the rules are broken today because of the two of them, then I, the Miao Wu clan, might as well be born here. ”

Miao Wu clan, thousands of years ago, there was a high priest who made a strict order to prohibit the Miao Wu clan from being born and living in the world, so for thousands of years, the Miao Wu clan has always lived in seclusion. At this time, Zach deliberately said this, obviously ridiculing Tuso and others.

Elder Tuso has lived to this age, where can he not hear the meaning of Zack's words, he is so angry that he blows his beard and glares at his eyes, but he is also speechless, although he has the heart to help Ye Jianan and the two exonerate, but after all, the clan rules are as big as a mountain, and they are enshrined in the altar.

Keji people are big ghosts, smart and clear, they have been wandering outside for several years, and they know countless people, and they also know that at this time, Zack clearly grasped Ye Jianan and the two of them, he took an arrow step and stood in front of Ye Jianan, and his slightly immature voice sounded on the colorful peak, "Brother Ye is my benefactor, he rescued me from the hell of endless suffering, and I also brought Brother Ye to the clan, and Brother Ye didn't know that there was this rule in the clan at all." Everything is because of me, and now you want to execute Brother Ye, then let me die for Brother Ye. For the first time, Keji faced tens of thousands of clansmen, and said loudly, although his thin body trembled slightly, but his clear eyes shone with an incomparably determined light.

He raised his head slightly, and the morning sun shone on his face, with a softness, "If it weren't for Brother Ye, Keji would have died a long time ago, even if I died today, I would have lived many more days." He smiled, and in the entire Colorful Peak, there was silence, only a young and bright voice sounded.

A burst of warmth rose in Ye Jianan's heart, and with a flick of his hand, a violent chestnut lightly slapped Keji's skull, and scolded, "Go aside, little kid, this is your eldest brother Ye's business, and I want you to take care of it." With that, he wanted to pull Keji away. Ke Ji opened his big bright eyes and said stubbornly, "Brother Ye, your business is my business." Ye Jianan's heart was moved, but he heard a burst of laughter. Zach laughed viciously, "Anyone who violates the rules of the clan will be punished, anyone!" With a wave of his right hand, he pulled out a bright long knife from his waist and shouted at Keji, "Get out of the way!" I'll kill this stranger today, according to the rules of the clan! ”

Ke Ji gritted his teeth, drew his knife with his backhand and was about to step forward, when a figure suddenly jumped out, "Who dares to hurt my child's benefactor!" A long knife appeared in the wind, and the people who came were angry, full of momentum, quite a husband and a man who could not open it, Ye Jianan turned his head and saw that it was Mo Ke's father.

Zach smiled darkly, "Mo Ke, you are not strict with your godson, today, I will teach you a lesson!" The long knife flashed, and it slashed towards Mo Ke, Mo Ke looked at it, held the knife in both hands, plucked up all his strength, and faced Zack's long knife. Clang! With a sound, Mo Ke only felt a strong attack, his body could no longer stand unsteadily, he retreated again and again, and he was about to fall, Mo Ke only felt a warm waist, and a soft force supported his retreating body. He looked back and saw that the person in front of him was pale, and there was a bright red mark between his eyebrows, but it was Ye Jianan.

The power of this knife has reached such a point, Ye Jianan was slightly shocked, but he didn't know that Zack was born with divine power, since he was a child, he has surpassed ordinary people a lot, when he was five or six years old, he was able to lift the stone mill at the entrance of the village, and then followed his father to learn martial arts, boil his strength, and when he became an adult, no one in the whole clan has been able to beat his strength. He has a clever mind and great strength, and in several group lives, he gradually gained prestige, so he gradually became the leader of the black seedling.

Ye Jianan held Mo Ke's father, took the long knife from his hand casually, he walked to the opposite side of Zack with a cold face. He stood up, his long knife pointed, and on the bright blade, a ray of sunlight was reflected, but Ye Jianan's indifferent voice came, "I don't care who you are, no matter who you are, you can't hurt Keji." There was an unmistakable hint of evil in the cold words. He looked up to the sky and muttered, "I've lost once, and I can't afford to lose this again." ”

Zach yelled and was about to rush with his knife, but heard an old voice sound, "Stop! Zack's heart trembled, his body stopped, and when he turned around, he saw the voice of the high priest sounding, "Our Miao Wu clan, although we have been hiding from the world, but it is not that we do not understand the reason, if we do not repay the kindness, but will put the benefactor to death, which makes us how to stand up to the sky and behave as a person, you know, the witch Niangniang, will not protect the wicked." ”

The words of the high priest, in the hearts of the Miao Wu people, are like gods, what he said is the will of the witch Niangniang, if anyone dares to disobey the witch Niangniang, then this person will have disasters and bad luck from now on. Witch Niangniang, Ye Jianan lowered her head and pondered, in front of the main house in Keji's house, it seemed that a god was enshrined, and the god seemed to be a woman.
