Chapter 71 (4) The Mission of Our Lady

Zhang Xiaoliu, Mo Xiaojie and others listened to it on the side, they were all a little surprised, Jiang Yuniang's words, it seems that Su Xiaowu will definitely be promoted in the future, such a muddy brain, the little soldier rescued from the bandits, he doesn't have much knowledge when he looks at it, where is it like an official? Jiang Yuniang usually doesn't believe in fortune-telling and the like, and often warns people not to fall for diviners, why do you say this today?

Su Xiaowu arched his hand and said goodbye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The little clever scratched his head, "Sister Jiang, I don't understand, are you fooling Su Xiaowu?" ”

"No, their Hunan army, is the local army of Hunan, although now in the melee was expelled, but the strength is still there, the future return to Changsha, the probability is very high, from the current point of view, this team is swaying, hesitating, some people support Mr. Sun's revolutionary ideas, some advocate closed self-preservation, and some people are stubborn and degenerate, where to go in the future, in addition to their own ideas, it depends on the situation of the whole country and external pressure, but they are almost certain to regroup, people like Su Xiaowu, although they are inconspicuous at the moment, I don't think his essence is bad, and there is not much military ruffianism on his body, so I persuade him a few words. ”

Although everyone does not doubt Jiang Yuniang's vision, they have opinions on whether Su Xiaowu can be "promoted", and everyone talks about it all the way, talking about major events in the world, and sometimes causing controversy. Because Ah Hu and Da Yu were young and weak, they walked for two more days before they arrived at Mofeng Mountain.

Mo Xiaojie has not returned to his hometown for a long time, looking at the mountains and rivers of his hometown, he is excited, coupled with the death of his relatives, tears have been rolling in his eyes, and his steps are hurried, and he goes straight up the mountain. Everyone knew her mood at this time, no one spoke, silently followed her, climbed the mountain, and arrived at a grassy slope behind the mountain, where there was a grave, and a simple stone tablet was planted next to it, which was the grave of Xiaojie's mother.

Da Yu and Xiao Jie trotted away, ran to the grave, knelt on the ground, lay down in front of the grave, and cried loudly.

Jiang Yuniang took the others up the mountain slowly, walked to the grave, bowed down and bowed a few times, and did not disturb the Mo family's aunt and nephew, everyone knows that Mo Xiaojie is alone, hearing the bad news of his mother's death, the grief in his heart has been accumulated for a long time, and crying bitterly is beneficial. Everyone stood silently beside them for a while, and then under the leadership of Ah Hu, they turned around and ran to the house on the mountain.

Ah Hu ran and walked in front, and when he arrived at the bottom of the steps in front of the house, he suddenly said "Huh", turned around and said: "Aunt Jiang, something is wrong, there are wild grasses and wild trees everywhere here, usually the road is full of fallen leaves, and now the steps are clean, someone must have cleaned it, and there is no one living in the courtyard, who will clean it?" ”

Jiang Yuniang smiled: "I guess, it must have been your father who sent someone to clean it, think about it, if there are thieves, they will only steal things and destroy them, who will clean up the inside and outside of the yard?" ”

"yes, yes."

Everyone unlocked and walked into the courtyard, which was even spotless, even the window frames and door frames were wiped clean, and the fruit trees in the courtyard were even pruned. When I pushed the door into the house, not only was it clean, but there was water in the tank, and the broom and dustpan in the corner of the wall were all new. Apparently there are people who take care of the room a lot.

After a long time, the aunt and nephew of the Mo family walked into the house, their eyes were still red, and they were also surprised to see that the inside and outside of the house were as clean as new, and Ah Hu said, "Let's go and ask my father, and we will understand." ”

Everyone decided to spend the night here, take a rest, and go to Laogezhai tomorrow, who knew that in the evening, Ah Hu's father came up the mountain.

Everyone met, very affectionate, a question, sure enough, Ah Hu's father often sent people here to take care of him, he said to Mo Xiaojie: "Although your mother is deceased, but the whole village is a relative, you can go to a higher education institution in Beijing, it is the pride of our Miao family, your mother is far-sighted, worthy of admiration." ”

Speaking of this, Mo Xiaojie's eyes flowed again.

Candles were lit in the house, everyone cooked dinner, sat around to eat, Ah Hu's father said: "Although we live quite close, I never knew it before, neglected to take care of it, now I think about it, I regret it......"

"No, no," Mo Xiaojie hurriedly shook his head, "We live alone in the mountains, in fact, it is intentional, originally, since our family moved here, we know that there is a Miao Village next to it, just because we have our own mission, we don't want to live with everyone, so as not to cause discussion and shocking the world." ”

When she talks about topics like secret missions, it's naturally inconvenient for everyone to ask in detail. But Mo Xiaojie said: "Sister Jiang, Brother Meng, you are not outsiders, our family's mission, it doesn't matter if I say it, and my mother has passed away, I also learned knowledge outside and gained knowledge, the so-called mission, I think it should be based on the premise of obeying the national mission in the future, first there is a country, then there is a talented family, and there is a family." ”

"That's true." Ah Hu's father praised.

"We Miao people, there is a batch of treasures, which were lost in the Ming Dynasty......"

"Did you mean," Ah Hu's father interjected: "King Chu Zhao went south and plundered a batch of treasures, and when he went north, he was secretly hidden by a general surnamed Zhou. The Jiang family sisters also know about them. ”

"That's right," Jiang Yuniang nodded, "Recently, there have been a lot of treasure hunters, when Shi Suo was in Wuchang, it was quite lively, including the Su Xiaowu we met, the Immortal Club, they were all trying hard to hunt for treasures, because of the treasures, these people in the rivers and lakes were fascinated and flocked to it." ”

Mo Xiaojie shook his head, "This matter, although it is quite bizarre, but the real situation, few people can say the whole thing, that batch of property was robbed, and most people look at it are just those rhino horns and ivory pearls, thieves, or high-rollers, racking their brains for the whereabouts of the treasure, desperately trying to find it, in fact, these things are all trying to make a windfall." ”

"Yes, is there anything other than treasure?" Zhang Xiaoliu asked.

At this time, everyone finished eating, and the room was stuffy, Mo Xiaojie said, "Why don't we go to the courtyard to chat." ”

Everyone carried the bench and straw mats, came to the house, at this night, the night in the mountains was quiet, the bright moon was in the sky, the courtyard was cool under the trees, everyone sat down, the heavy rain lit the mugwort incense, a wisp of smoke, permeated the courtyard.

Mo Xiaojie said softly: "At that time, my ancestors, who lived in the far south, were catching up with the war, in the battle with King Zhao, we suffered a defeat and our property was plundered, but everyone was unwilling, and after discussion, we sent people to secretly track down and find the treasures that were taken away. But it's not about looking for rhino horns and ivory or anything like that. ”

"Wait a minute," Ah Hu's father looked up and thought about it, and said, "Our hometown, which is also the south, has moved here, and I don't know how many generations it has been." In the legend of the clan, we Miao people seem to have a very precious treasure, it is a kind of artifact, as for what the treasure looks like, what is the effect, and where it fell later, no one can say clearly, what you said, is it related to this legend?
