Chapter 340: Ginger is still old and spicy (plus more)
After the three of them had eaten, Xiao Yao and the eldest lady went to the bamboo building where King Miao was under the leadership of Hu Yiyi, handed over the greeting post to meet King Miao, and soon agreed with King Miao's guards to meet King Miao tomorrow. Then I listened to a civil official or something like that explain some of the etiquette of the audience, which was very simple.
Moreover, Xiao Yao and the eldest lady are not Miao people, and they do not need to kneel. Otherwise, Xiao Yao is really a little resistant.
On the contrary, Hu Yiyi had more gifts here, and then asked people to receive the gift list, and the two gifts would be carried with him tomorrow and handed over to King Miao in person.
The people around King Miao seemed to be very polite to the Poison Dragon Sect, and they didn't have any excessive requirements, telling King Miao that he would meet with other Tusi envoys tomorrow, so he only had about half an hour to meet the three of them. Therefore, Xiao Yao and the three of them needed to come over early in the morning and be arranged to be the first batch of Miao Wang to meet.
After arranging tomorrow's itinerary, the three of them returned to the bamboo building early to rest.
According to the herald's patient explanation, he said that he would receive him in the morning, probably when the day was about to break, and he could go to see King Miao.
According to Xiao Yao's inference, it was about five o'clock in the morning, and he still needed to bathe in new clothes before meeting King Miao.
Fortunately, the three of them are familiar with the nearby caves, the eldest lady and Hu Yiyi went to take a bath in a cave, and Xiao Yao washed in the dark river of Qinglong Cave and changed into new clothes.
The eldest lady and Xiao Yao both changed back into Central Plains clothes, while Hu Yiyi wore a white Miao suit, looking radiant and with a bumpy figure, Xiao Yao couldn't help but praise himself.
Early in the morning, the three of them came to the palace of King Miao, and there were already civil officials waiting here, leading the three into the bamboo building.
I saw that this bamboo building is much larger than the bamboo building where Xiao Yao and the three of them lived, the main hall is five zhang wide, one zhang high, the decoration is magnificent, covered with all kinds of silver ornaments.
When Xiao Yao and the three of them were brought in, they saw that King Miao was already sitting on a bamboo bench in the middle, drinking tea.
There are many candles and torches lit around, and even though it is underground, it looks very bright. The main hall is flanked by two rows of seats.
Hu Yiyi knelt down on one knee and saluted, while Xiao Yao and the eldest lady clasped their fists and bowed.
"Poisonous Dragon Sect Hu Yiyi brought two friends Xiao Yao and Zhao Rushuang to meet King Miao." Hu Yiyi said loudly.
"No need to be polite, this king doesn't have so many rules here." It was actually an old man's voice, and his words were full of affinity.
Someone immediately invited Xiao Yao and the three of them to sit on a chair on one side. Hu Yiyi handed the small box in his hand to the waiter, then got up and said.
"I have prepared two treasures for King Miao. One of them is a bottle of Baishou Pill recently refined in the religion to prolong the life of the king. The other is the snake gall of a hundred-year-old gold and silver snake, which can be concocted by the secret method I taught, which can help the king get rid of wind evil and strengthen his body. I also hope that King Miao will smile. ”
Xiao Yao looked up at this Miao King secretly, and saw that he was dressed very plainly. He was dressed in a blue Miao suit with a peacock feather stuck in a scarf on his head. His complexion was ruddy, but his face was wrinkled, and he was obviously not young, looking to be at least sixty years old.
Xiao Yao immediately understood the value of these gifts from the Poison Dragon Sect, what this old Miao King needed most at this time was this kind of tonic. This Poison Dragon Sect really knows how to do things.
King Miao was obviously very satisfied with the gift he sent, but he didn't order anyone to open it in time, he just looked at Xiao Yao and the others with half-open eyes, and said slowly, "Presumably, this is Xiao Gongzi, who defeated the master of the Witch Clothes Sect at the Witch Ghost Conference this time, is really a hero out of a young man." ”
Xiao Yao didn't expect that this Miao King didn't talk to Hu Yiyi first, but paid attention to himself.
"The king, it is this Xiao Gongzi. The two of them are my best friends in teaching Situ Dharma Protector, so they helped them at the Witch Ghost Conference and defeated Qiu Ming, the Taoist Master invited by the Witch Clothes Sect. ”
Hu Yiyi gave a brief introduction, obviously this Miao King had long known about the matter of the Witch and Ghost Conference.
"Xiao is just a grass person, and this time he was kindly invited by the Poison Dragon Sect to participate in the Witch and Ghost Conference, so he should do his best. King Miao's praise is too much. Xiao Yao replied to Hu Yiyi's words.
"Xiao Gongzi is too modest, such a young talent, not only strong in martial arts, but also able to be arrogant and not arrogant, it is really rare. This king and the two generations of Poison Dragon Sect leaders are very good friends, so you don't have to see each other. Otherwise, I wouldn't have seen you early in the morning, so that we could talk a little longer. Hehe~"
This old Miao King is very easy-going, and he has no arrogance at all. It directly brings the relationship between each other much closer.
That being the case, Xiao Yao simply went straight to the point and made his intentions clear.
"Xiao came this time, and he really asked for the king of Miao. I heard that King Miao has a friendship with a miracle doctor, Xiao came to Miao Jiang this time, because my young lady was suffering from a strange disease, and I came here to find a divine doctor for healing, hoping to ask the king for a recommendation. Xiao must be a grass to repay the great favor. ”
"These kings already know that this king has sent people around to find the whereabouts of the miracle doctor before, but it is for the injury of Kang Qin's son." Speaking of this, I saw the old Miao King looking at the three of them with a nonchalant look.
Then he continued, "It's just that this person has never seen the head and tail of the dragon, and he still hasn't found his whereabouts. But this king still has a friendship with him, so if he sees the official letter sent by this king, I believe that he will definitely come to Phoenix Mountain immediately, and Xiao Gongzi does not have to worry. ”
"In this way, Xiao thanked King Miao first."
Xiao Yao was observing King Miao all the time, obviously this King Miao had already suspected that it was the three of them who injured Prince Kang. But he didn't point it out, obviously because he didn't want to pursue the matter.
Xiao Yao's heart was dark, it seemed that this Miao King and Na Kang Qincha did not have much friendship, and there might even be a lot of resentment.
"It's just" Lao Miao Wang opened his mouth to speak, his brows were tightly locked, as if he had encountered some problem, but he didn't look at Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao was not stupid, he instantly understood the meaning of Lao Miao Wang's eyes, and laughed secretly in his heart, it was indeed an old fox. But there was a sincere expression on his face.
"Xiao is not talented, as long as King Miao agrees to introduce a divine doctor to heal my eldest lady, he will do his best to help King Miao within his ability."
"Very good, very good! Haha~" Old Miao Wang laughed heartily.
"Xiao Gongzi is really a dragon and a phoenix, and this king is very pleased. In fact, Yiyi must have known about this. This matter is a major event in my Miao Jiang, and Yiyi must have come here this time for this matter, so you can talk to Xiao Gongzi. ”
This old Miao King is obviously very familiar with Hu Yiyi.
Hearing this, Xiao Yao's heart was much more steady. Since this old Miao King can ask for a divine doctor, and now he needs his own help with something, this qiē is even better.
Help each other, take what they need, and do not owe each other. You must know that the most difficult thing in the world to repay is human debt.
Although Hu Yiyi didn't tell him what was going on beforehand, he wouldn't cheat himself if he thought about it.
Hearing this, Hu Yiyi answered: "Without the permission of King Miao in advance, Yiyi didn't dare to tell Xiao Gongzi about this matter, since I have your consent now, and Xiao Gongzi is also a friend of my teaching, I believe he will definitely help." Now Yiyi will briefly talk about the whole thing. ”
King Miao smiled and nodded, while Hu Yiyi turned to Xiao Yao and said, "Brother Xiao must also know that this Phoenix Mountain is the holy land of our Miao Jiang and the place where the great witch gods of our Miao people live in the past, so there are a lot of rare and exotic beasts in the mountain. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yao couldn't help but think of the monitor lizard in the Green Dragon Cave.
"Each generation of witch gods in the Witch God Temple will choose a divine beast as their guardian god. And each generation of witch gods will raise their own guardian beasts in this Phoenix Mountain. It's just that there are a few divine beasts whose lifespan far exceeds the lifespan of humans, and after the death of the Great Witch God, this part of the divine beasts is still alive. They are fostered somewhere in this Phoenix Mountain, but these divine beasts will establish a natal witch Gu oath with the Great Witch God, after the death of the Great Witch God, these divine beasts want to get rid of the oath and leave Phoenix Mountain, but this natal witch Gu oath cannot be solved by the Great Witch God. ”
Hu Yiyi paused for a moment, and then said, "And we have not had a great witch god in Miao Jiang for nearly two hundred years, and gradually, these divine beasts who want to leave Phoenix Mountain have begun to disobey the control, so someone needs to remove the witch Gu from them." ”
"When the Great Witch God was alive, these witch Gu were of great benefit to the Divine Beasts, and they could also enhance their combat power. But when the Great Witch God died, these witch Gu would destroy the bodies of the divine beasts, making the temperament of these divine beasts change greatly, and ordinary people could not approach them at all. And as the witch Gu gets out of control, these divine beasts will attack the humans of Phoenix Mountain. ”
"Therefore, my sect has specially researched a kind of Gu Transformation Pill, although it can't immediately remove the witch Gu in the bodies of these divine beasts, but it can slowly help them expel the witch Gu from their bodies."
After a pause, Hu Yiyi intentionally or unintentionally dodged Xiao Yao's gaze and said, "But it is necessary for a person with superb martial arts skills to sneak into the lair of the divine beasts and put this elixir into the water or food they drink, and it will take ten consecutive days to completely remove the witch Gu on these divine beasts." ”
"This not only helps these divine beasts to avoid pain, but also helps Miao Jiang to relieve a big trouble in Phoenix Mountain. We've sent experts to test the test before, and each time we have failed. Seeing Brother Xiao's superb methods at this witch and ghost conference, we rekindled our hope. ”
After that, Hu Yiyi plucked up the courage to set his eyes on Xiao Yao and made eye contact with Xiao Yao.
"Xiao Gongzi's martial arts are amazing, if we can help us cure the witch Gu in the body of the divine beast, this king must be very grateful, and he must also ask the divine doctor to treat Miss Zhao." King Miao immediately promised.
So it was. Although it was a little unexpected by Xiao Yao, it was within his own tolerance.
It's okay like this, with the promise of King Miao, and then the magic doctor's magic hand rejuvenation technique, I believe that the eldest lady's strange illness can be saved.
Thinking back to the scene of the battle between the little monkey and the monitor lizard yesterday, although the victory is inseparable, it can also compete. With this little guy by his side, it shouldn't be too dangerous.
I guess that monitor lizard was one of these guardian beasts.
Thinking about this, Xiao Yao immediately replied: "King Miao, you are too polite, although Xiao is not talented, he is willing to try his best." ”
"Xiao Gongzi is really refreshing, then we will make up our minds. I will send someone to inform Yiyi of other things, and she will cooperate with Xiao Gongzi's action, which will be much more convenient. ”
After receiving Xiao Yao's reply, Lao Miao Wang was obviously very happy. With a smile on his face, he said, "You came early in the morning, and you must have never had breakfast." In this way, the messengers of the three great toasts will also come to the king, and you do not need to leave in a hurry, but later in the palace, the king will order a feast to be prepared. ”
"Thank you, King Miao." Hu Yiyi got up and thanked him, and Xiao Yao and the eldest lady got up and thanked him.
It seems that the relationship between this Poisonous Dragon Sect and King Miao is obviously much better than that of the other three toasts, and this old Miao King invited the three of them to a banquet at this time, and in front of the three toast messengers, it really killed two birds with one stone.
Not only did he warmly entertain the three of them, but he also showed his special relationship with the Poison Dragon Sect in front of the three major toast envoys.
Sure enough, it was an old fox, and he did it like flowing water, but it didn't leak.
This time, the Poison Dragon Sect defeated the Wuyi Sect, which will further expand its power, and the support of King Miao is indispensable, but the two are also helping each other.
