Chapter 450: Flickering
The old woman spoke quickly and urgently, and her face flushed with anger.
Jiang seemed to sound a little struggling, and roughly understood what the old woman meant: The saint has a mole on her eyebrows, you don't have it, you are a who should eat her heart.
"What are you talking about?" The girl looked surprised and pointed at Jiang, "Isn't she a saint?" β
The old woman calmed down a little and asked sharply, "Who are you?" β
Jiang Ru looked at the old woman with a calm face, and said lightly: "I'm Ah San." β
The old woman showed a stunned look, and her originally firm expression was shaken a little.
If the woman in front of her, who looked exactly like the saint, said that she was a saint, then she would not believe it.
But the woman said her name was Ahsan.
If a foreigner pretends to be a saint, how can he know the name of the saint?
The old woman hesitated.
Jiang Ru's chin raised slightly: "Can someone pretend to be me?" β
"But the saint has a mole on her eyebrowsβ" The old woman's aggressive momentum just now suddenly decreased a lot.
Jiang seemed not to show any timidity, and asked unhappily: "Only one mole?" β
In her previous life, she lived as Ahsan for several years, and she never showed a flaw.
Of course, this has to do with the way the Woo and Miao people cultivate holy women.
A group of qualified girls are selected from the clan to stay away from their parents and family members to practice magic together.
This is a process of continuous elimination, and year after year, there are fewer and fewer candidate saints, until the only saint is selected to live and practice with the Great Elder.
Ahsan was elected a saint at the age of ten, and the people who knew her best were the Great Elder and the personal maid. For others, the Holy Maiden is a being across the clouds, sacred and inoffensive.
Now, two years after Ahsan's death, it is unlikely that anyone has seen him.
She has the same appearance as Ah San, can speak Wu Miao language, understands Wu Miao magic, and is even familiar with some of Ah San's small habits, who dares to say that she is not a saint?
Of course, if the old woman turns around and asks the Great Elder for verification, and the Great Elder reveals Ah San's death, then she will be in trouble.
But who cares? Now she just wants to find out what she wants to know from the old woman's mouth.
"But the holy woman has a mole on her eyebrows......" The old woman became more and more shaken, and her eyes were hesitant.
Jiang seemed to smile, raised his hand and stroked his eyebrows, and a small red mole appeared there.
The old woman was stunned for a moment, staring at the red mole for a long time.
Jiang Ru glanced at the old woman coldly: "What, do you still think that I am not a saint?" You haven't seen me in a long time, right? β
The old woman immediately bowed down: "Please forgive me for my ignorance." β
Jiang seemed to be moved in his heart, and he suddenly understood the identity of the old woman.
In Wu Miao, the only one who can call himself "me" in front of the saint is the status of an elder.
"Get up."
The old woman got up and asked Jiang Ru: "Why did the holy woman come to the capital of the Great Zhou?" β
"Why are the elders here?" Jiang seemed to take the opportunity to ask rhetorically.
Since the old woman came to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty more than ten years ago, she boldly guessed that even Ah Sang would not know the purpose of the old woman's visit.
The old woman hesitated for a moment and said, "I came here by the order of the Great Elder, as for the reason...... I ask the Holy Lady to forgive me, I cannot say it to anyone without the permission of the Great Elder. β
Jiang seemed to sigh quietly.
I didn't flicker out, it's a pity.
But it's a matter of secrecy, and it's not a bad thing to know.
In the future, when the old woman returns to the Wumiao tribe and mentions this matter to the Great Elder, her identity will definitely be revealed, and if she knows any important secrets now, she may cause big trouble.
"This shop opened more than 10 years ago?"
"Fifteen years ago."
Jiang seemed to move his eyebrows slightly.
Fifteen years ago, when she was more than a year old, her mother died.
"It's been so long, I've never heard the Great Elder mention it." Jiang Yi sighed.
Jiang seemed to mention the Great Elder's tone in a familiar and natural tone, and the old woman immediately dispelled all her doubts.
In this way, there will be more talk.
"This matter is very important, only the Great Elder and the person performing the task knows, of course the Holy Maiden has not heard the Great Elder mention it."
"That's right." Jiang seemed to see that the old woman no longer doubted, so he asked, "Do you know why I came here?" β
The old woman shook her head.
Jiang Ru's expression suddenly turned cold, and he said unhappily: "I accidentally found out that someone was hit by the Heart Initiation Gu!" β
The old woman glared at the girl fiercely, and put on a respectful posture: "Please calm the saint's anger, it's my granddaughter who is ignorant and bold and reckless......"
The girl immediately said, "Holy Maiden, please don't blame Hua Lao, it's all my fault...... Please punish me......"
The girl said as she fell to the ground and shivered.
"Don't take it as an example."
The old woman shouted: "The holy woman doesn't care anymore, and she can't get up yet." β
The girl hurriedly got up and stood obediently behind the old woman.
The old woman glanced at Jiang Yi, and said in her heart that when she saw the holy woman that time, the holy woman was still young, but she didn't expect that after only a few years, she would be a little majestic as a great elder.
Thinking of this, she smiled with satisfaction.
There are successors to Wu Miao, which is really blessed by God.
Between the Great Elder and this Holy Maiden, there should actually be a Holy Maiden, but there was no Chosen Holy Maiden during that period.
The Great Elder is getting older and older, and one day he will close his eyes, and if there is no Holy Maiden to replace him as the Great Elder, then the Wumiao tribe who have lost the protection of the Great Elder will be like a wolf that has lost its fangs, and has become the target of competition and encroachment by other ethnic groups.
At that time, the entire Wumiao tribe was panicked, and it was not until the appearance of Ah Sang that the tribesmen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aside from this time, have you ever given the Initiation Gu to others in the past?" Jiang asked with a calm face.
The girl hurriedly shook her head: "No! β
"What about the Elders?" Jiang seemed to stare at the old woman and asked.
What she really wanted to know was, of course, the words from the old woman's mouth.
The old woman thought about it carefully and shook her head: "No." β
Jiang seemed to be stagnant, and there was a kind of grievance of punching the cotton.
More of a disappointment.
Could it be that this clue is just broken, if you want to know where the Eldest Princess Rongyang's Initiation Gu came from, you have to ask her herself?
Of course, the real culprit who killed her mother must be cleaned up, but it may be difficult to ask these questions from the mouth of the eldest princess.
On the premise of recognizing her status as a saint, unless the old woman has a different intention to turn away from the Wumiao people, she will not lie to her.
The old woman said no, it should be no.
Jiang seemed a little unwilling, but he had no choice.
"Holy Maiden?" Jiang seemed to be silent for a long time, and the old woman shouted.
Jiang seemed to look back at the old woman, and after the light inadvertently glanced at the girl beside her, her heart moved: "When the elder came here alone? β
The old woman said, "Two people." β
"Is the other person also an elder?"
"It's a second-generation elder."
The most qualified of the candidates who were eliminated from the original practice with the Great Elder were the first generation of elders, and the second generation of elders was selected from the batch of candidate saints before Ahsan, but the second generation did not have the appearance of the Chosen Saintess.
"Why don't you see the other one?" Jiang seemed to suppress the excitement in his heart, and asked with a calm face.
The old woman said: "Not long after she came here, she went to the palace. β
