Chapter 111: The Third Secretary of Xiangxi
Xiaoxiang is also known as Xiangxi, and Miao Jiang is not specifically referred to as Xiaoxiang, but a general term for Guizhou Province, Shu Land, and a large area of Xiaoxiang.
And in Xiaoxiang, there are three major evil secret arts, chasing corpses, Gu magic, and falling flower cave girl.
Legend has it that the corpse expulsion technique originated thousands of years ago, the ancestor of the Miao people, Apu (Miao language: father-in-law) Chi You led the army to fight with the enemy in the Yellow River, this battle was a river of blood, corpses were all over the field, and when the battle was over to retreat, the brothers who died in the war should be sent back to their hometowns, so this is the earliest corpse expulsion technique.
Later, because the place was barren and there were many people who went out in the local area, some people died in other places, so in order to let them return to their roots, so the corpses were driven to rise in the local area.
Now, due to the convenience of transportation and the development of science and technology, more attention is paid to the operation and use of corpses.
And Gu art is generally to put a variety of highly poisonous poisonous insects such as snakes and scorpions, scorpions, etc., into the same utensil, so that they can eat each other and kill each other, and the only remaining poisonous insect is Gu. There are many types of Gu, and the greater influence is snake Gu, dog Gu, cat ghost Gu, scorpion Gu, toad Gu, insect Gu, flying Gu, etc., and some Gu worms will also be specially cultivated, and those who cultivate these Gu worms are using some living animals, such as domestic animals, and animals are also useful.
Gu worms cultivated by humans are fierce Gu, and this kind of Gu likes to devour people.
The last one is called "Falling Flower Cave Girl" is that there are some unmarried women in the tribe who walk past a hole, glance at the cave and then return home without drinking or eating, and die a few days later with a smile on their faces. The tribesmen thought that she went to marry the cave god, so these girls did not get married during their lifetimes, but after the person died, others went to the funeral, and the family of the Luohua cave girl not only did not hold a funeral for them, but also had to do a marriage to show the joy of the wedding.
This kind of thing is basically invisible to the female road of the Falling Flower Cave now, but there were many of them in the past, and it is not clear what the reason is.
By the time I arrived in Xiaoxiang, it was already the afternoon when the sun was setting in the west.
But there is still a long way to go before the destination.
This time, the destination was a place called Dahuai Township, which was named after a large locust tree.
When I arrived at Dahuai Township, it was already about ten o'clock in the evening, and the mountain road was not easy to walk, and several people who twisted and turned along the way even got a little motion sickness.
When Hu Qi got out of the car and stepped on the earth, it was much better, and the heaviness of stepping on the earth washed away the shaky sense of vanity on the car.
When he got out of the car, Hu Qi saw an acquaintance.
"Vice Minister Nangong Yan, are you here too?"
That white-haired old temperament and a face that is a little fresh meat are really memorable! It's a pity that the actual age is older than the master Tian Hong!
Deputy Minister Nangong Yan smiled modestly
"Hello, Xiaoqi!"
When Hu Qi got off the station and helped Grandma Li and Old Man Wang Changhong get off the train, Nangong Yan stepped forward to greet him.
"Elder Wang, Aunt Li!"
Wang Changhong and Li Yu cheered up when they heard the voice.
"Why are you leading the team this time!"
Nangong replied
"Yes, I led the team this time!"
Old Man Wang sighed and said
"You should also know what the two of us are here for!"
Nangong Yan groaned
"Yes!"
Old Man Wang said
"I hope the two of us won't disrupt your layout, and you know that the two of us only have one goal in this world!"
Nangong sighed
"Elder Wang, Aunt Li, if I can't help because of this matter, please don't blame it!"
Old Man Wang nodded
"I know that state affairs are important! This time it was the two of us who acted willfully, but when I think of my old man with children and daughters, I really can't sit down at home!"
Nangong Yan said, "Elder Wang, let's not talk about this first! After a day's ride, the car must be tired, go to eat something first, and then go to rest and rest first, according to the personality of their group, it is impossible to show up until the critical time!"
Old man Wang nodded
"Good!"
At this time, Li Changfeng slowly came out of the car, wearing a big black windbreaker, sunglasses, and combing his hair all rolled out.
"Minister Nangong!"
Nangong Yan smiled helplessly when he saw Li Changfeng's appearance.
"Hello Minister Li!"
This appearance was dumbfounded in the eyes of Hu Qi and the others, what is this, what is Li Changfeng doing?
After hearing Nangong Yan's greeting, Li Changfeng nodded like a big brother, and then walked to the front, looking like a big leader came to inspect.
Hu Qi stood behind Old Man Wang and asked without speaking
"Grandpa Wang, Li Changfeng is this a law nerve?"
Old Man Wang also smiled helplessly
"In the past, there was only one deputy minister, and he happened to be the two most powerful candidates to be deputy ministers at that time. Later, I don't know where a sentence came out, maybe it was said by these fans of Nangong Yan! At that time, Nangong Yan was not only in appearance but also in temperament, not to mention the best and one of the top people in the entire relevant department.
In addition, he was the second-in-command in the relevant departments immediately, but at that time, Ji Tianyang was more inclined to Li Changfeng, because Li Changfeng was more sleek and patient, and his measurements were relatively large, and the deputy minister of the relevant department was in charge of external affairs at that time, which was equivalent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
At that time, it was unanimously agreed that Li Changfeng should be elected, but it happened that there were some things that the relevant departments needed to expand, so they all appointed both of them as vice ministers at that time.
At first, it was nothing, but later it should have been spread by some fans of Nangong Yin, saying that it was because Li Changfeng did not have the temperament of Nangong Yan and was not as handsome as him, so two deputy ministers were appointed, and Li Changfeng was responsible for the tiring work, and Nangong Yan only needed to show his face!
At that time, I also knew what was going on, Li Changfeng, who was originally quite generous, because of these words, every time Nangong Yan appeared, he would definitely dress himself up carefully and appear in the way he thought was cool!
After all these years, it hasn't changed! Like a child!"
Hu Qi and Li Xiaomu laughed out loud after listening to Old Man Wang's story
"I can't imagine that Vice Minister Li Changfeng still has this kind of thing!"
Wu Ling couldn't help but smile when she couldn't help but smile.
Vice Minister Nangong Yan led everyone to eat something and arranged for everyone to rest, Wang Changhong and Li Yu naturally fell asleep directly when they were older, Hu Qi, Li Yumu, Wu Ling and Vice Minister Li Changfeng came out after resting for a while, familiar with the familiar place, and also got to know people.
Dahuai Township is a township, and it is not clear whether the town is big or not, but the streets in the town are not big, and there are many people coming and going on the criss-crossing streets.
There are even a lot of unfathomable breaths as deep as the ocean, and Hu Qi sank into it a little!
"Hu Qi!" Li Changfeng's deep voice pulled Hu Qi back.
Hu Qibu, who came to his senses, had to break out in a cold sweat again.
Li Changfeng said when he saw that Hu Qi had eased up
"There are a lot of old monsters here, don't peep at random!"
Hu Qi wiped a handful of sweat and nodded without nodding!
This kind of township is not big, if you don't buy things just a rough look at it will be an hour or so to finish, and then a few people will return to the stronghold of the relevant departments, this time there are more people to this place, there are not many places to stay in the town, and now there are many more overcrowded, the relevant departments as the official background of course live in the town government, each government has a place to entertain.
Many people from other forces are renting homestays, but all this depends on their willingness, and under the suppression of the relevant departments, those forces do not dare to attack the ordinary people, if it is not for the temptation of ambushing corpses this time, those forces are willing to compete with the relevant departments.
Back at the guest house, Li Changfeng took a few people to meet the people who came this time led by Nangong Yan!
When he entered the door, Hu Qi actually saw an acquaintance.
Miao Xiang wore Miao costumes and smiled and said hello to Hu Qi and Li Yumu!
"Chief Hu Qidao, Miki, you guys are good! I didn't expect us to meet again so soon!"
Hu Qi also smiled back and said, "Yes, I have to cooperate again so soon!"
Nangong Yan gestured to everyone and said
"Sit down!"
The three of them sat down in turn, and Li Changfeng naturally walked to the front and stood with Nangong Yan!
Nangong Yan looked at everyone and said with a smile
"Let's get to know each other! Then I'm going to explain it. ”
Hu Qi looked at the three people sitting opposite, except for Miao Xiang Hu Qi, who didn't know anyone, but looking at one of them wearing the same clothes as Miao Xiang, it should be Miao Xiang's clansmen!
At this time, the man in his twenties who was sitting at the top in ordinary clothes stood up and said with a smile
"Hello everyone! I'm Chen Hua. ”
After saying that, he sat down, and did not reveal too much information, but just said a name.
Miao Xiang also stood up with a smile and said
"I'm Miao Xiang. This is my brother Miao Long!"
Miao Xiang stood up and introduced not only himself but also his brother.
His brother Miao Long also stood up and nodded when Miao Xiang introduced him, showing a very modest expression.
Hu Qi stood up and said with a smile
"Hu Qi, this is Li Yumu, she is Wu Ling, due to some physical reasons, she can't speak!"
After speaking, Hu Qi also sat down.
Li Yumu also nodded, and Wu Ling was a little red, but she still followed.
Nangong Yan and Li Changfeng looked at each other and didn't interject, and only after everyone had introduced Nangong Yan did they start talking.
"The day before yesterday, all parties have reached an agreement in order to avoid fighting, so it was unanimously decided that each side will send six people into the ambush tomb, and it is determined that there can be no death, although this regulation is a bit ridiculous, but after all, we represent the relevant departments, so unless someone attacks you, you can't kill first, of course, if someone dares to attack you, you don't have to scruple to kill it!"
