It's been at least half a year since Qiaoqiao saw Nayi again. In the past six months www.biquge.info the village has been quite calm. Everything went on as planned, and nothing big happened.

Since Xu Chang came back from the Gao family, because of his weak body, most of his time has been spent on detoxification exercises and various supplements, but he doesn't have much energy to do evil like before. Qiaoqiao still lives with her grandfather, but her grandfather doesn't take her around all day long to play like when she first came, but often locks her up at home and asks her to learn Miao Gu witchcraft. said to the outside that he was not in good health and needed Qiaoqiao to take care of him at home. He also said to Xu Chang that if there is anything in the village, he can make his own decisions, and there is no need to come to ask him. In this way, except for the occasional little friend who comes to play with Qiaoqiao, most of the time the house is very quiet, and almost no one comes to disturb him, which allows Qiaoqiao to concentrate on learning with his grandfather.

Qiaoqiao also asked her grandfather a few times where Sister Nayi and those people were, but her grandfather sighed and shook his head, refusing to tell her. If you ask too much, your grandfather will get angry, blow his beard and stare at him, and say, "Xu Chang sent them out, what other good things can he do!" Qiaoqiao didn't dare to ask anymore, and put her mind on studying.

In the past, when I was at home, Qiaoqiao also learned some Gu techniques with my mother, and at that time, I thought that my mother was so powerful, and she could raise Gu and grow Gu and pull out Gu, but after learning from her grandfather, I realized that those that my mother would would be nothing compared to my grandfather, and there were many treasures that were passed down from generation to generation. Yes, if you don't have real skills, how to rule the huge Miao Village, how to manage the fierce black seedlings? So, Qiaoqiao studied with her grandfather hungrily, and her homesickness was not as strong as when she first came, but sometimes when she sat alone, she would hold the clothes her mother made for her and be stunned for a while. At this time, the Great Witch would pretend not to see it, but sigh secretly.

Qiaoqiao is a very smart child, and she has made rapid progress under the teaching of her grandfather. Dawu was very happy, and often touched her head and said, "If you are a boy, you will definitely be able to be a great witch in the future." Qiaoqiao asked curiously: "Can't a woman be a witch?" The Great Witch shook his head: "A woman can be a witch, but she can't be a witch." Unless the witch has a special contribution to the village, it is possible for the whole village to recommend her as a great witch, but she still needs to go through a very strict test before she can ascend to the throne of the great witch. But almost no one can pass that test, it's too difficult and dangerous! "What is the test?" Qiaoqiao still pestered her grandfather to ask, but her grandfather had already put her face on her face and asked her to study hard, so as not to waste time. Qiaoqiao had no choice but to pout and continue to study with her grandfather.

One day, the whole village was in a stir: the people who had left the village more than half a year ago had returned! Qiaoqiao is still very lively when she is young, not to mention that she still thinks about Sister Nayi. Seeing his granddaughter running out in a puff of smoke, Dawu didn't stop him, but just shook his head helplessly.

One side of the water and soil to support the other side. In the past, Qiaoqiao was well-behaved and quiet, and when he saw people, he smiled shyly and rarely spoke. But after arriving in Miao Village, he was infected by the fierce folk customs of the Miao family, and was assimilated by the hot and unrestrained Miao girl, Qiaoqiao's personality became more and more cheerful, more and more lively, and even a little spicy.

Not far from the gate of the village, I happened to see a group of people surrounded by everyone walking towards the village. The people are still the same people, but many places are different. First of all, at first glance, I felt that there were fewer people, and when they left, they were all beaming and happy, but now they are all gray and listless. Qiaoqiao searched eagerly in the crowd, and finally, she saw Sister Nayi in the most inconspicuous place in the crowd. She excitedly squeezed in, ran to Nayi's side, and just wanted to reach out to pull Nayi's hand, but it retracted again. She saw that Nayi's beautiful face did not have the same sparkle as before, she was very thin and pale, and her big eyes that were bright and bright had become dull. She bowed her head in the crowd and followed everyone silently towards the village. Kung Fu Nayi, who was stunned, had already walked past Qiaoqiao's side, but she was still immersed in her own world and didn't see Qiaoqiao at all. Qiaoqiao's "sister" also choked, and she could only watch her walk away in a daze.

Qiaoqiao returned home dejected, sat on the stool, supported her chin with her hand, and looked unhappy. Seeing his granddaughter like this, Da Wu knocked her on the head with the stem of the cigarette pouch and asked her what was wrong?

"Go", Qiaoqiao pouted, touched the skull that had been knocked by grandpa, and reluctantly told grandpa what he had just seen. Grandpa didn't speak after listening to it, and asked for a long time, "Have you seen how many people are missing?" Qiaoqiao shook her head: "I didn't pay attention, there should be several." The Great Witch stopped talking again, just smoked the cigarette pouch vigorously, and only after a while did he say to himself: "Alas, I can't come back." Qiaoqiao asked puzzledly: "Grandpa, why can't they come back?" Where the hell did they go?

The Great Witch still didn't speak, just held the cigarette pouch and kept smoking. Qiaoqiao was in a hurry, pulled out the cigarette pouch from his grandfather's mouth, and said half-coquettishly and half-tantrums: "If you don't say anything more, I'll throw the cigarette pouch downstairs!" Da Wu was a little scared this time, and quickly snatched his baby cigarette pouch back from Qiaoqiao's hand, seeing that Qiaoqiao was still pouting, he thought for a long time, and finally said, "You sit down, I'll tell you what's going on!" ”

Dawu told Qiaoqiao that since Xu Chang came, he has vigorously cultivated his cronies, and he is extremely generous to his subordinates. The people of Miao Village have not been particularly wealthy for generations, including him, the great witch in this village, and he does not have much property. But everyone has no worries about food and clothing, and they are all used to this kind of free and self-sufficient life. But after Xu Chang came, everything changed, he brought a lot of things from outside the mountains into the Miao village, so that the Miao people could see the prosperous life outside the mountains that they had never had. Xu Chang used these things to lure and attract some Miao people who didn't know the truth to get closer to him for his use. Gorgeous silk clothes, exquisite jewelry, and other dazzling things, plus a kind of longevity pill that Xu Chang made that claimed to be immortal, made some people follow him with all their hearts. These people were often sent out by Xu Chang to do things for themselves, and they were tight-lipped about the people in the village and even their own families in everything they did. But Dawu knew that what Xu Chang sent them out to do would definitely not be a good thing.
