In the evening, the three of them came to Gaoba Village. The stockade is built halfway up the mountain, and it is the highest one in the vicinity.

It is easy to defend and difficult to attack here, from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, a number of watchtowers and arrow towers are arranged layer by layer, and the nearby houses are surrounded in the center. The villagers in the village have cultivated many terraced fields in the surrounding mountains to grow some grain and vegetables. All the terraces are within range of the arrow tower.

The several mountain roads leading into the mountains under the stockade are also full of sentry posts at this moment, which are obviously much tighter than the other stockades.

The three of them went all the way up the mountain, and each sentry had to check the waist card entering the mountain. The three of them all relied on the Wei family's waist card to pass through various levels.

Although the defense was tight, judging from the expressions of the people who kept coming and going, it didn't seem to feel anything unusual. It is estimated that the investigation was strengthened because of the witch Gu Conference.

As far as the eye can see, from the mountainside to the terraced fields at the foot of the mountain, the Miao people lead the cattle to work in the fields, and the people are prosperous, and it is indeed the richest village in the white seedlings.

After about five checkpoints, the three of them finally came to the walled gate in the middle of the mountain. When they arrived at the gate of the village, there was no inspection, but a few Miao beauties who sang and danced came and offered water and wine, and the three of them each drank a bowl before entering the village.

From a distance, there are at least 1,000 wooden buildings in the village, densely packed and closely connected. Farther up the mountainside, there are scattered stilted buildings, with a population of nearly 10,000 in the village, and many people living in the nearby mountains. Compared with Baiguozhai, it is more prosperous.

Thanks to the cultivation of the terraced fields, there is no need to worry about water throughout the year, and the terraced fields here are rich in rice, and various fish are mixed in the rice fields, so the products are abundant.

Hu Yiyi was obviously familiar with this village, and led the two to a relatively stilted building, and opened the door directly.

It is a relatively small inn, with few guests due to its remote location, but it is very neat and elegant.

Due to the upcoming witch and ghost convention, the inns near Tusi Mansion were all full, and even the houses in better locations took advantage of the opportunity to receive many people from various tribes who had come to attend the convention.

Hu Yiyi booked a room, ordered a table of wine and food, and the three of them chatted while eating.

"Have you been here before, and do people here know who you are?" Xiao Yao asked with some concern.

"I don't know, they only know that I am a black seedling, and they don't know anything else. However, there is a custom in our Miao Jiang, that is, no one will bully girls who go out at will, because there are many more girls who can do tricks than men, and if they are not careful, they are likely to be killed. The male mainly learns farming, hunting and martial arts so that he can support his family. Hee-hee~"

Hu Yiyi said with some pride.

"Will that Qincha's son come to seek revenge?" The eldest lady finally asked the question she wanted to ask along the way.

"Not for the time being, because he has temporary mobility issues." Xiao Yao couldn't help but laugh, but he didn't say much.

"I don't think so. Although the witch and ghost conference is lively, the toasts of various tribes generally do not participate. Only the various Jianghu sects and witch temples in Miao Jiang will participate. Although there are also envoys of the four major toasts such as King Miao, they are all wizards from various villages to be envoys, and there are generally no officials to participate directly, so the witch and ghost conference will be more chaotic. ”

Hu Yiyi also expressed his thoughts.

"That's fine, it's a bit of a hassle." The eldest lady secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"There will be fights in every witch and ghost conference, and the Miao people advocate strength and worship the strong, so in order to improve their status in the hearts of the people, each sect will consciously and deliberately arrange some competitions, just like our sect and the witch clothing faction."

Hu Yiyi replied indifferently.

"Then who of your people are here this time, do you want to go to them?" Xiao Yao asked.

"My mother shouldn't come, it should be Situ Jing." Hu Yiyi returned to the road.

Xiao Yao hadn't figured out the internal network of the Poisonous Dragon Sect yet, and remembered the news he secretly heard in the Tusi Mansion that night, so he pretended to ask casually, "Is there a person named Xiahou Mountain in your sect?" I think I've heard this name mentioned before. ”

Hearing this, I saw a trace of resentment flashing on Hu Yiyi's face, and his face turned cold and said: "Xiahou Mountain was originally the left protector of the sect, but now, he is already a waste. ”

"He secretly colluded with the witch faction and designed to assassinate my mother, but fortunately, the sky has eyes, and my mother saw through their tricks. Now my mother has abused his hands and feet and is locked in a prison cell in the church. ”

Hu Yiyi said truthfully.

Xiao Yao thought of the conversation he heard in the Tusi Palace, this Xiahou Mountain is already a waste, and he can't make any waves anymore. Then he asked casually: "Who is Situ Jing?" How does martial arts compare to you? ”

Hu Yiyi stared at Xiao Yao with a suspicious face, "It seems that you are very interested in the affairs of my sect?" ”

When Hu Yiyi asked like this, Xiao Yao chuckled, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and said with advance as retreat: "Of course." Although it is the first time for the two of us to step into the land of Miaojiang, we have already heard of the reputation of your religion, and it is like thunder! If you can understand this, it's good to go home and tell it as a story to the young master and the brothers and sisters in the house, haha~"

After speaking, take another sip of tea and rinse your mouth.

The eldest lady on the side grabbed Hu Yiyi's arm and said with a smile: "I've heard a lot of you talk about it recently, and I'm starting to be interested in these things?" Okay, just talk about it. ”

Xiao Yao listened to the eldest lady's words and was surprised. But in this way, it has also invisibly freed himself from the siege, hehe. Otherwise, it's really hard to explain yourself.

Hearing the eldest lady say this, Hu Yiyi suddenly changed another expression, which was really different from the expression facing Xiao Yao. Said patiently to the eldest lady: "Sister Situ is the right protector of the sect, and her martial arts are naturally stronger than mine. ”

When mentioning Situ Jing again, Xiao Yao was keenly aware that Hu Yiyi's eyes were full of kindness.

The look of man is the most deceiving.

After dinner, the three of them went back to the attic and went back to their rooms to rest.

After returning to the house, after Xiao Yao ran a getaway, he was suddenly refreshed and tired.

These days, he has been secretly improving the use of the Poison Dragon Palm Technique, this place is located in the depths of Miao Territory, the Poison Dragon Sect has many eyeliners, Xiao Yao does not want to be found out that he will use the Poison Dragon Palm Technique, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Through continuous improvement, experimentation, and practice. Xiao Yao gradually discovered more tricks, and also found that the mark that appeared on his left hand, once his palm came into contact with the water mist made by the poisonous dragon palm method, he could carefully distinguish the speed and direction of the movement of each water droplet.

He can further use his mind to control their movement and flight, but his true qi is not strong enough to penetrate into the human body, and he has not yet figured out how to use these water droplets to destroy the operation of other people's true qi, and he has fallen into a bottleneck for a while.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yao got up and quietly came to the window, jumping outside.

It was close to midnight, and the whole village was silent. The village under the moonlight has a unique charm and is picturesque.

From a distance, the square in the center of the stockade is brightly lit and particularly conspicuous.

Since being idle is also idle, it is better to explore the largest village of Baimiao, and there may be an unexpected receipt.

Just took a few steps forward, suddenly a black shadow flashed in front of him a few times, only to see the man in black look back in his direction and disappear into the night in a few vertical leaps.

If it weren't for Xiao Yao's breakthrough in the exercises, her eyes were amazing, and she wouldn't be able to see her appearance clearly, this person was Hu Yiyi.

Xiao Yao was not too surprised by Hu Yiyi's elusiveness. It's just that last time she said that she had left a special mark on herself, why didn't she find out at this moment?

Where Hu Yiyi is going on this trip and what his intentions are, Xiao Yao is not interested, and he doesn't want to follow Hu Yiyi.

So he went around a fork in the road and headed in the other direction.

Xiao Yao walked in the alley, and the stilted buildings and black-tiled houses on both sides were obviously much higher than the one he lived in. Although it was already the middle of the night, I could still faintly hear the noise of drinking and eating loudly from a few people's homes.

Xiao Yao didn't get close to these places, those big sects must have lived in special inns, just observe secretly, but wherever there is a sentry, it should be their station.

Xiao Yao shuttled quickly in the dark, and sure enough, he found a secret whistle on the roof of an inn that was much larger than the inn he was staying in.

So he took advantage of the darkness and went forward in secret.

The first floor of the inn has no lights, and there is a room on the second floor that still has oil lamps.

Xiao Yao came behind the dark whistle unconsciously, and the man was lying on the roof, staring at every move on the street, and realized that someone was already standing behind him.

Yun Jin tapped an acupuncture point on his spine, and the man immediately fell asleep.

Seeing this, I was slightly happy in my heart. According to the acupuncture method in the Yellow Emperor's Neijing, compressing and condensing true qi instead of silver needles is really effective, and this person is estimated to sleep for an hour or two before waking up.

Xiao Yao moved softly, came to the top of the room where the light was on, gently lifted one of the tiles, and looked inside.

I saw an old man dressed in white, sitting cross-legged at the table, and a middle-aged man in a blue robe stood opposite. The two were talking.

"The boss, his subordinates are incompetent, and he failed to catch Hu Yiyi's little slut, and please punish the boss. However, the subordinate brought back another piece of news and reported it to the master. The blue-robed man said respectfully.

"The ghost face doesn't need to blame himself, the deity has his own calculations. Tell me about the news you got. The old man in white said.

The blue-robed man thanked him respectfully and reported truthfully.

"My subordinates heard that Hu Yiyi's little slut has maple wood on her body that is used to trap eyeless silkworms, and a young man suddenly appeared next to her, and he is definitely not from the Poison Dragon Sect, but like a Han person!"

Speaking of this, the blue-robed man raised his eyes to look at the old man, without any expression, and continued: "According to the analysis of his subordinates, that Hu Yiyi is looking for the five poisons, and he will not return to the Poison Dragon Sect until he completes the trial. Then we still have a chance. In addition, the spies came to report that the envoy of the Peng Mansion came to Baiguo Village, and injured the son of the Qin Cha surnamed Kang in public. ”

The blue-robed man voiced his doubts.
