Chapter 398: She suspected that she had entered a fake Miao clan
Half an hour later, the group came to Ah Niu's house, which was two connected stilted buildings.
Ah Niu's parents died unexpectedly during a hunting trip into the mountains, leaving only one relative, his grandmother.
When the old man saw that his grandson had brought so many guests, he smiled and invited everyone into the house to sit down. I stepped on the wooden ladder to the third floor, took off the bacon hanging on the eaves of the porch and only ate it during the New Year's holidays, and turned around and went into the kitchen.
Yun Shu followed with great eyes. Shen Mingjiao saw everything in her eyes, and was a little reluctant for a while, but she didn't say anything.
Several people ate a sumptuous meal of Miao family dishes, and Shen Mingjiao knew that they would definitely not accept the silver. He picked out two brightly colored brocades from his luggage and forcibly gave them to Xiuxiu, gave Ah Niu a set of bows and arrows, and gave Wu's grandmother a box of plasters for joint pain.
Shen Mingjiao repeatedly emphasized that this was the custom of their hometown, so she let a few people accept it. Grandma Wu sniffed the plaster, frowned and said:
"It smells of notoginseng powder, but it's too little!"
Shen Mingjiao was surprised: "Mother-in-law, do you still know medical skills?" ”
The grandmother of the Wu family lowered her head and picked up the beans in the dustpan: "How can the old woman know any medical skills?" Oh, the girl said Sanqi! There are many on the mountain! ”
Shen Mingjiao looked at the Wu Taiyi: "As far as I know, Sanqi came out a few years ago, saying that it is a healing elixir, and the growth environment is harsh, and the price is very high. ”
Doctor Wu didn't raise his head: "This is something that the medicine merchant should worry about." ”
Well, this man only has research in his eyes.
In the middle of the afternoon, under the urging of Shen Mingjiao, the witch physician reluctantly contacted the current patriarch of Wujiazhai to inquire about Shenwuzhai and those stones.
After all, this is the home of the witch doctor, and several patriarchs are related to him, so he can save a lot of trouble
Shen Mingjiao had nothing to do, so she made clothes with Xiuxiu, while Ah Niu held the bow and arrow of his experience, standing on the hill and gesturing lovingly.
The two had a casual chat, and in the evening, Xiuxiu had reached the point where she had nothing to talk about.
"Madame, you're not here to buy timber, are you? I guess it's to find someone. ”
Shen Mingjiao didn't deny it, and then lowered her voice and asked curiously: "I heard that you Miao girls can raise Gu?" ”
Xiuxiu waved her hand incredulously: "How is it possible?" Raising Gu is talented, and you have to learn a lot of things, there are a few doctors in our village, and it is brain-consuming and disgusting, who wants to learn that! ”
Shen Mingjiao: Is the unfathomable Gu technique of "......" feelings in her heart already outdated in Miaojiang?
Xiuxiu asked puzzledly: "Hey, but how do you know that our Miao people have Gu worms?" ”
Shen Mingjiao spread her hands: "Those who love to read fantasy supernatural scripts know it." ”
She casually said a few words that she had read about Miaojiang Gu worms, and the half-truths and half-truths were mixed with some things about Qing Yao.
Xiuxiu was amazed again and again when she heard this, urging her to speak more: "Are you people outside so imaginative? I, a Miao native, didn't know that Gu worms could be so powerful! ”
She frowned: "But why are you there, we Miao people use Gu worms to harm people every day, obviously Gu worms are used to treat diseases and save people!" ”
Shen Mingjiao was stunned, and listened to Xiuxiu Balabala say a lot, to the effect that Gu worms really appeared at the beginning just because they were curing diseases and saving people, and it seemed that in their place, Gu art was equivalent to medical skills.
"And it's definitely not as powerful as you say, and what kind of love Gu you have, you guys are too good at making it up!"
Shen Mingjiao: "...... This is really not made up! After all, her friends around her had experienced it for themselves not long ago.
For a while, she suspected that she had entered the fake Miao tribe.
Xiuxiu simply put down the needle and thread and pulled her with great interest:
"Hey, tell me about it again! Just tell the story of the Miao saintess, it sounds very powerful. ”
Shen Mingjiao said casually: "Well! It is the ancient Miao lineage with pure blood, and the blood can open the ban or something. "Isn't that how they are written?
Xiuxiu tilted her head and blinked: "According to what you say, then I am also the saint daughter of our clan!" ”
Shen Mingjiao was a little interested: "What do you say?" ”
Xiuxiu picked up the needle and thread again, sorted out the order and said:
"I also listened to what my wife said, saying that our Miao tribe was divided into several factions at the beginning, and my ancestor was the patriarch of one of them, and I heard that she was the illegitimate daughter of a great wizard in the legend, in short, it was very powerful.
My ancestors married close relatives in order to keep their blood pure, and after many generations, they always gave birth to deformed children, and then they no longer married close relatives, but only hired sons-in-law and did not marry, until my great-grandmother's generation broke this rule. But no one pays attention to that now. ”
Shen Mingjiao didn't pay attention to it, and joked: "Maybe one day your blood can really open some mechanism channel?" ”
Xiuxiu obviously didn't believe it. Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Mingjiao took out a shirt from her baggage, and when she saw the stone in the box, she opened it in front of Xiuxiu with the mentality of trying: "You have seen this kind of stone on the mountain?" ”
I am afraid that the other party will stare at the stone and hallucinate. She also blocked it with her hand.
