Ling Yunjun nodded and said, "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the ancient trees are towering, and they are very beautiful. ”

Liu Tingting said: "The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village." The lotus flowers in the lake are bright and new, and the picture scroll is fragrant. The quiet and prosperous field is deep and comfortable, and it is suspected that it is a fairyland and a fishing village. ”

Ling Yunjun saw many Yi men, women and children in the lakeside village walking out of the village in groups, all dressed up in bright and brilliant clothes, as if they were all brides and grooms, he was very puzzled in his heart, and asked: "Aunt ......" suddenly stopped, thinking that Liu Tingting told him not to call her a girl when she was wearing men's clothes, so he stopped and said, "Son, why do you see that they are all dressed so gorgeously, as if they are all going to get married?"

Liu Tingting is also strange, why men, women and children are wearing Yi bride and groom clothes out of the village in groups. So he looked around carefully, and saw that the tall pyres set up on the meadow by the lake were huge bonfires. Two tall tree trunks were erected behind the bonfire, and a huge ox skull hung in the middle, and he said, "Maybe there is some kind of memorial ceremony, but it is better not to be approached easily by outsiders." ”

Ling Yunjun nodded and said, "Then let's go, it's just getting late, I don't know if we can get out of the mountains and forests before dark?"

Liu Tingting saw that all the men, women and children of the Yi nationality were carrying big knives, and her heart was even more strange, and said: "Since it is a memorial ceremony, why do you still carry a blade." Could it be that there is something strange in it?" he turned his head to look at Ling Yunjun.

Ling Yunjun didn't think about what the Yi men and women were going to do at all, but was thinking about how they got out of the mountains and forests, and he shook his head with a blank face when he heard what she said.

Liu Tingting took off her crutches and tried to touch the ground with her feet. Only then did I realize that my left foot was fine, there was no pain, and I was very neat, and praised: "Your herb is really effective, my foot is no longer in trouble." ”

Ling Yunjun nodded and said, "This herb is specialized in treating the poison of the green snake, and it is getting better very quickly. But it's very difficult to find, and I really didn't know where to find one. ”

Liu Tingting nodded and said, "It's hard to find because it's a good medicine, let's go, go over and see what they are going to do?"

Ling Yunjun asked, "Didn't you say that they were going to do a memorial ceremony, which is not easy for outsiders to approach, why did they have to come close to see it?"

Liu Tingting said: "If it is a memorial, why should everyone carry a sword, as if to defend against an invading enemy? If this is the case, how can we stand by and sit idly by?"

Ling Yunjun felt that what she said made sense, nodded, and followed her down the mountain.

The two arrived at the foot of the mountain, hid behind a big tree, and watched the movement of the people not far away.

Seeing that all the Yi men and women drew their big swords and guarded everywhere, some patrolled around.

The two of them felt movement behind them, and when they turned their heads, they were startled. A tiger bared its teeth and claws, glared at the two of them, and roared.

Liu Tingting and Ling Yunjun slowly stepped back, and the tiger followed the two and slowly approached.

The two of them retreated out of the mountains and forests to the meadow by the lake, and then heard a group of Yi men shouting and running rushing towards them.

Liu Tingting glanced at the situation behind her, and saw that the Yi men were all waving big knives, and they hurried towards in anger. He turned his head to face the tiger again, and the tiger had no intention of backing down.

It continued to stare at the two of them as they moved forward, and the tiger emerged from the woods and appeared on the grass.

She didn't know whether the Yi people were kind or malicious, so she had to do it and watch and wait for the changes.

Ling Yunjun held the sword holster tightly in one hand, always ready to block Liu Tingting's injury.

All the Yi men also ran behind Liu Tingting and the others, and there were bursts of shouting and killing, but when they saw the tiger coming out, they suddenly stopped, quieted a little, and then shouted to kill.

Liu Tingting saw that the Yi men had changed into flower-colored masks with long fangs, and were jumping left and right with big knives. Knowing that this was a way for them to scare the beast, it shouldn't be aimed at the two of them, so he was a little relieved.

The tiger opened its mouth wide and roared and stopped moving forward. With a burst of wind, countless large knives flew towards the tiger.

The tiger roared in fright and turned and ran into the woods, thrust its knife into the grass.

Everyone quickly picked up the big knife, surrounded Liu Tingting and the two, glared angrily, and the shouts of killing shook into a whole.

Liu Tingting arched her hand and said: "The two of us were chased by tigers, and we have no intention of breaking into your land. ”

The Yi men didn't seem to understand what Liu Tingting said, so they exchanged their heads and whispered.

Liu Tingting couldn't understand their language either, so she had to watch their actions quietly.

A man said a few words to a middle-aged man wearing a long bird feather on his head, which Liu Tingting and the two couldn't understand.

The middle-aged man looked extremely angry, scolded the man in a language that Liu Tingting and they didn't understand, and glared angrily at Liu Tingting after saying a few words to the two.

Liu Tingting said: "Please forgive me for not understanding your language, I wonder if there are people in your ministry who can listen to and speak Chinese?"

The middle-aged man couldn't understand what Liu Tingting said, so he looked even more angry, and shouted a few words to the man behind him.

All the men shouted together, raised their big knives and rushed towards Liu Tingting.

Ling Yunjun held the sword sleeve flat, blocked in front of Liu Tingting, and shouted: "Stop, can't you explain anything before fighting?"

The Yi men stopped, looked at the delicate sword holster in Ling Yunjun's hand, and turned their heads again.

The middle-aged man was not so angry, and pointed his big knife at Ling Yunjun and scolded a few words that he didn't understand. But it seems that everyone still wants to kill the two of them.

Liu Tingting hinted that Ling Yunjun put away the sword holster, stepped forward and arched his hand and said: "The two of us have no intention of breaking into your land, it is a crime, but it is not to death, please forgive me." ”

The Yi men saw that the two were not hostile, and their hatred decreased.

The middle-aged man also hesitated, and a man behind him stepped forward and said a few words to him. He nodded and replied. The man turned and ran to the campfire, and the middle man shouted at the Yi men again. The Yi men tightly surrounded Liu Tingting and the others with big knives, as if to prevent the two from escaping.

After a while, I saw a strong man running over with the man and standing beside the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man said a word to the new strong man.

The new strong man asked Liu Tingting, "Who are you?"

When Liu Tingting heard that this person could speak Chinese, she suddenly felt happy, and said: "My name is Ah Ting, he Ah Jun, the two of us were chased and killed by tigers, and I have no intention of retreating into your land. ”

The strong man said a word to the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man scolded, the strong man looked a little helpless, and asked Liu Tingting: "He wants to ask what kind of clan you are, not your name." ”

This question stumped Liu Tingting, she grew up with the rebellion since she was a child, and never talked about what nationality she was, so she was dumbfounded.

Ling Yunjun relieved the siege and said: "Han nationality." ”

Although Liu Tingting has been speaking Chinese since she was a child, she is not sure whether she is Han or not, and she can't help but think of who her parents will be, and she is a little sad.

The man said a word to the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man pondered for a while and said a word to the man. The man said: "No matter what nationality you are, we suspect that you are spies. Therefore, I will take you back to our patriarch, and if you resist, you will be killed. ”

Liu Tingting said: "The first time we strayed into your land, how can we say that we are spies." But since you have asked for it, we will go with it. ”

The man translated Liu Tingting's words to the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man yelled and turned to leave. The man said, "Please!" Liu Tingting and the two followed the man forward.

Soon everyone took Liu Tingting and the two to the bonfire, where there were many beautiful and beautiful Yi girls, and even the old women were dressed like them, all like brides.

When the women saw Liu Tingting and Ling Yunjun coming, their eyes changed from angry eyes to soft eyes. A young and handsome Yi guy rushed to Liu Tingting and the two with a big knife, his eyes were angry, as if he had some deep hatred, and the big knife in his hand was pinched, eager to break Liu Tingting and the two into pieces.

The man who could speak Chinese hurriedly walked up to him, and after saying a few words to him that he didn't understand, the young man's mood stabilized a little, he glanced at Liu Tingting and Ling Yunjun fiercely, and turned around and walked forward.

The Yi men and women also made a way and stood neatly on both sides. Not far in front of him stood a very dignified middle-aged man, and by looking at the man's outfit, he knew that he was the patriarch here.

The Chinese-speaking man stopped Liu Tingting and Ling Yunjun, suggesting that they should not step forward.

The middle-aged man who walked in front of Liu Tingting and the two walked up to the patriarch and said a few words that Liu Tingting and the two couldn't understand.

The patriarch looked very calm, walked closer, looked at Liu Tingting and the others carefully, and asked, "Why did you trespass on this place, you can invite it truthfully, so as to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." ”

Liu Tingting was relieved to hear that although the patriarch had a thick accent, he could spit out Chinese, at least she could communicate. He bowed and said: "The two juniors have no intention of trespassing on your land, just because they got lost in the mountains and forests, and were chased by tigers, and they strayed into your land in a hurry. I know that there are many faux pas, and I hope that my predecessors are considerate. ”

The young man with angry eyes said: "Daddy, maybe they are the spies brought by the wicked man, how can they stay?" This person spoke Chinese more clearly than the patriarch, but his tone was full of anger and murderous aura.

The patriarch looked a little hesitant and looked at Liu Tingting and the others again.

Liu Tingting smiled slightly and said, "We don't know what enemy your land wants to defend against, nor is it a spy, and we don't know who the opponent is. If it is a spy, we will not come with everyone to meet the seniors to explain the truth, and hope that the seniors will investigate clearly. ”

The patriarch waved his hand, and saw a beautiful girl in a colorful bridal dress walk out of the crowd and come to him.

Liu Tingting and Ling Yunjun saw that this woman was delicate and elegant, graceful, and extremely beautiful, and they both felt something in their hearts. But they didn't notice that the patriarch was carefully watching their every move.

The patriarch saw that the two of them reacted normally and there was nothing strange about it, so he said to Liu Tingting: "Why this girl is dressed as a man, if you don't look carefully, it's really hard to tell. If you wear my Yi bridal clothes, you will definitely surpass Anai. ”
