Chapter 7 Miao Nu is enthusiastic, serving tea in a big bowl
Miao nationality is one of the Miao people living in Hainan, its roots, there are two origins, the first is the Ming Dynasty as a soldier, recruited from Guangnan, and later settled in Hainan.
There is a record in the "Yazhou Chronicles" of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty: "There is another kind of Miao Li, where there are hundreds." They often migrate to the east and west...... When he came out of the city to trade, he never caused trouble. When the cover was in front of the Ming Dynasty, he suppressed Luo Huo, hugged by Ertong, built a camp, transferred Guangxi Miao soldiers to defend, called a medicine crossbowman, and the camp was wasted, and the descendants scattered in the valley, still in the name of Miao, and still good at using medicine crossbows. β
"Qiongzhou Mansion Chronicles", "Thanksgiving County Chronicles" and other similar records.
Second, there are a considerable number of Miao people who come to make a living, and the general saying is that the Miao people came from Quang Nam and crossed the sea by boat, and the first place of residence after landing was Huangtian.
Huangtian is a basin, and the Miao people have reclaimed this basin into a fertile field. But when the ruler saw that the Miao people were living a prosperous life, he went into the village to rob them and wanted to kill them all. The Miao people had no choice but to abandon their homes and flee to the mountains and forests.
Most of the Miao people on Hainan Island, also known as Miao Li, live in the alpine areas of central and southern China.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially after the reform and opening up, some Miao people moved from the mountains to slightly gentle slopes, and the Southern Terrier Miao people mentioned by Wang Xiaofei were one of them.
Ma Xiaolong is not a person who listens to and believes partially, and specially asked Wang Xiaofei, and the guy answered fluently, and it seems that it should be true.
Ma Xiaolong was not familiar with Xiong Wangfei, but he didn't say much, probably after asking about the same, he returned to the car, took out 20,000 yuan in cash from his bag, handed it to Yan Yan, and asked her to take her brother to the hospital, and we couldn't delay time, so we had to hurry to the South Terrier area.
Ma Xiaolong had a lot of things to do, so this time Ma Yiao came to drive, and he made a phone call.
First of all, the first thing is to tell people that early tomorrow morning, they have to send the money to Wu Wanqing.
After all, "people can't stand without faith", according to Wu Wanqing's temperament, if such a big thing happened to his daughter, if he didn't kill Wang Xiaofei, how could he dispel the hatred in his heart, but people looked at his face and let us take people back. This is actually a great favor, so if this little money is in arrears, he may not be able to gain a foothold in Yazhou's generation in the future.
The second thing is to let people check the details of the South Terrier Miao people.
He found two people, the brother of the public family, and the other one, an old man from Yazhou.
The brother of the public family was very cautious, and when he heard him ask, he immediately said if there was a new clue, and warned Ma Xiaolong, saying that if there was a clue, he had to tell them not to act privately, otherwise there would be some consequences, and he would not be able to help end the situation.
After chattering like this for a while, he talked about the matter of the Nanjiao Miao people, saying that it was a relatively closed village, and after moving down from the mountain, it has been like this, maintaining the clan system.
The so-called village chief is not as effective as their own clan elders.
Of course, that was a few years ago, in recent years, as the outside world is changing faster and faster, the ancient Miao village system has also begun to have a new development, and last year there was a college student, which is a great progress.
After listening to the official statement, the old-timer in Yazhou clearly told Ma Xiaolong that the Southern Terrier Miao people are one of the few Black Miao people on Hainan Island.
The so-called "Black Miao" is actually an ethnic group with an ancient heritage and many witchcraft methods, especially the Southern Terrier Miao people, raising Gu, witch doctors, sacrificing to the sky, and keeping promises, these things are the same, but their personalities are introverted, and they basically don't have much communication with the outside world, unless they are in a hurry, and methods like witch Gu will not be shown to outsiders.
And people are also very hospitable, and they are very good to their friends, as long as they identify you, they are absolutely comfortable.
The seniors had heard a few stories, all of which were about someone who had a terminal illness, and who happened to know someone from Nanjiao Miao Village, who came to seek medical treatment and got a solution, and so on.
He knows a friend who has a very good relationship with the Southern Terrier Miao people, but that person is in the Northeast, and for a while, he can't find anyone.
After inquiring about everything, Ma Xiaolong made a phone call to his sister and explained the matter.
When Ma Xiaofeng heard that we were going to "Gaopo" Miao Village, she was immediately reluctant to let her brother not mess around, but Ma Xiaolong repeatedly assured her that he was just going to ask, and there would be nothing wrong.
He hung up the phone directly, and then asked Ma Yiao to drive the car to the gas station and fill up the gas in the carriage.
That night, the three of us men took turns driving in the direction of Nanjiao Miao Village.
Two thousand years ago, that place was not open to traffic, so we parked our car at a nearby settlement at half past five in the morning the next morning, waited for half an hour, and inquired about the directions at the commissary not far away, and then set off for the South Terrier.
Although the Nanjiao Miao people have migrated down from the high mountains in the central region, this area is still a hillside area, the mountain road is really difficult to walk, and it is a tropical forest, so it is actually quite troublesome to walk along the way.
After going forward, it is all dense forest, only in the middle, there is a sheep intestine path, which can barely pass.
Because we were not familiar with the road, we arrived near a Miao settlement around noon.
We didn't dare to go in directly, but wandered outside, and we had to make sure that this was the South Terrier Miao Village before continuing the next action.
We came over this time, in addition to holding accountable why the guy named Xiong Wang Fei killed Wei Xiaoqin, there is one more thing, and that is about the whereabouts of the Russian girl Anna.
Because at the beginning, we thought it was Anna, or her companion, who had done it to Wei Xiaoqin.
It wasn't until we found Anna's residence and found out that there was a fight there that we realized that Wei Xiaoqin may have been unknowingly involved in a disaster, probably because she saw something that shouldn't be seen, so she was killed.
What kind of disaster is it, and why does it have anything to do with the Southern Terrier Miao people?
These are the things we need to figure out.
It's just that how to investigate this matter is also very troublesome, after all, the Southern Terrier Miao people are powerful, and the old-timer has repeatedly reminded us, after all, there are all kinds of things in it, if you provoke the other party, I'm afraid that even us may not be able to get out safely.
Even if it's like Suzaku, who can come out unscathed, but what about the others?
What about me, what about Ma Yiao?
What about Bruce Ma?
We were very cautious, and after discussing it, we all felt that our heads were as big as a fight, and we didn't know how to continue, and at this moment, suddenly a woman's voice came from not far away.
Yes?
At first, we didn't understand what the woman said, but then, when she switched to Chinese, we could understand: "How many of you, which one is it?" β
And when we hear the words clearly, we also see the speakers.
It was a few young girls wearing blue homespun dresses, the girl who was the first to ask was about eighteen or nineteen years old, in her twenties, very watery, with two dark and shiny eyes blinking, her little face was red and fluttering, revealing a young and healthy youthful atmosphere, and she also wore horns and silver ornaments around her neck, looking very energetic.
Is this the girl in the stockade?
I was a little stunned, but Ma Yiao was the first to react and stepped forward and said, "Hello." β
His tall and handsome appearance and gentle and upright aura made several girls relax, and the girl at the head looked at us curiously, and then asked, "Who are you and what are you doing here?" β
She speaks with a slight accent, but it is soft and crisp, which is very good.
Ma Yiao explained to them that he was a university teacher and brought a few graduate students to the mountains to collect biological specimens and do research, but he didn't expect the road conditions here to be really complicated, and we were dizzy and accidentally lost.
He said it seriously, he didn't blink his eyes when he lied, and with his naturally trusting face, the girls didn't suspect it.
Not only did he not suspect it, but he also very enthusiastically invited us into the village to rest.
At the invitation of the Miao girls, Ma Yiao got off the donkey down the slope, took a few of our students, and followed them into the village.
On the way into the village, the girl at the head was very enthusiastically introduced, because their names were a bit awkward, I only remembered her, called An Li (also known as Ali), of course, this is just an abbreviation, and Ma Yiao was pseudonymous Sima Ao, and gave us a random name.
Of course, we are not the point, almost all the girls, their eyes fell on Ma Yiao, and they kept asking him what to say.
Fortunately, Ma Yiao himself is a top student majoring in biology, and he treats these seemingly naΓ―ve, but in fact hidden "murderous" questions, and answers them like a stream, without revealing half of the flaws.
We were led into the village and walked all the way to a large house, where Ann Li invited us to sit down in the hall and then go and make us tea.
She took her two little sisters to the kitchen next to her, and there was a dark fat girl who chatted with us.
I didn't talk a few words just now, at this time, a young man with a strong body walked into the hall, and when he saw us, his face suddenly darkened, and he muttered a few words to the fat girl, and the fat girl replied, and the young man immediately went out, and he didn't know why he went, and at this time, An Li came in with a few big bowls.
She said to us with a smile: "The original guests, we have limited conditions, we don't have a teacup, only a bowl for eating, don't dislike it, drink a cup of tea, moisten your throat......"
