"That's what they say?"

The decoration is barely a luxurious stilted building, and the water patriarch finished a golden pig and asked the two women who had just served tea to Shen Mingjiao and his party.

The two women nodded, "That's what they said." ”

The water patriarch waved his hand to let the two go down, and the dog-legged man on the side asked curiously: "Why haven't I heard of any thousand-year-old agarwood incense in our village?" ”

The water chief stroked his beard and waved his hand disappreliantly:

"What's this, don't those people outside love to tell us how mysterious and evil our Miao people are?

Besides, didn't you hear it just now, they also came here after listening to the words of some kind of wandering Daoist, this is not clear that they were fooled! At first glance, she is a big lady who is uneasy about the world. ”

Dogleg was still a little worried: "Didn't the grandson of the Wu patriarch say that he came to ask for medicine?" How could you bring these people here? ”

"Don't worry, I've already had people talk on the road, saying that these people are actually businessmen who came to collect timber, and if they want to see the ancient Miao people, they should have given a lot of benefits to the ancestors and grandchildren of the Wu family, and the Wu patriarch asked this kid to bring people along the way."

Hearing this, the dogleg smiled and proposed, "In that case, then we ...... it" He made a motion to wipe his neck.

The water patriarch raised his hand, and his face was full of smiles: "I thought the same way before, but you didn't hear her say that his father is the richest man in the north, if you can bring her father over......"

Dogleg scratched his head: "But...... How to deceive this! There is no thousand-year-old agarwood in our village! ”

The water patriarch frowned: "First envelop the people, the methods are all thought up by people." ”

At this time, a strong man hurriedly ran in: "Patriarch, there is news from Xizhai that the people who were arrested a few days ago are on a hunger strike. ”

The water patriarch slapped the table irritably: "How many times have I said it, I still want to teach you this kind of thing." If she doesn't eat, you just break your mouth and pour it on her. ”

After speaking, he added with a solemn face: "That's the person the saint wants, but take care of it carefully, if there is anything missing, just wait to feed the snake!" ”

The strong man replied with resignation, and when he turned around, he smacked fiercely in his heart.

If it weren't for the original incident, the people of the Shui clan died and the people who were locked up were imprisoned, how could it be his turn to be such a fool as the patriarch?

……

With Shen Mingjiao's "fat sheep" here, without them taking the initiative, the water patriarch left them on the clumsy excuse that the guests of Shenwu Village had to stay for three days.

But let Poria Cocos, who came in the name of medicine, leave, after all, Poria Cocos is the next patriarch of Wujiazhai, and he can't be offended too much.

Poria actually wanted to stay and watch the excitement, but Shen Mingjiao insisted on driving him away.

"This is our private matter, you are from Wujiazhai, and you will live here for a long time in the future, there is no need to get involved, go back quickly!" Go back and tell your grandfather that you promised him something, and you won't break your word. ”

After sending Poria away, Shen Mingjiao led the people and began to walk around.

In the name of showing them the way, the water chief let people follow them from a short distance.

Shen Mingjiao didn't care at all, and looked at the trees along the way every time she walked by. It is even more common to inquire about the incense wood of Shenshui.

It's a pity that there are a lot of houses here, but there are not many people living here, and the people I meet are either working with blank expressions, or bowing their heads and not daring to look at people, in short, they basically can't communicate normally.

After walking like this for most of the day, naturally there was nothing to gain, and Shen Mingjiao returned to the stilted building arranged for them irritably.

Back in the room, after making sure no one was eavesdropping, Hadiichi collapsed on the chair and pulled a bag of jerky out of his arms.

"Aren't you hypnotic? Grab someone and ask me, don't you know everything? ”

Shen Mingjiao took off her robe: "I tried, I can't hypnotize all the people here." ”

Ming almost bit his tongue: "Such a god, then that water tribal chief is too?" ”

"It's not that hypnosis is completely impossible, it's just that it's much more difficult than ordinary people. I'm too lazy to bother with that. ”

"So how do you do that? You go out and wander around like this, and you can't find any news? ”

Shen Mingjiao took a sip of tea: "Who said I didn't hear about it?"

Shenwu Village was supposed to be similar to the ordinary Miao Village, about ten or twenty years ago, there was a clan change, many people died, and some important people in the clan were imprisoned in Xizhai,

Since then, there are special guards in Xizhai and no one is allowed to enter. The rest of the ordinary people succumbed to the new force, the water chief, while others became dead and numb, or lived in fear.

Therefore, if we want to find out more, we have to think of going to Xizhai. ”

After listening to her long list of words, she was so shocked that the dried meat in her mouth was no longer fragrant: "Those people obviously didn't say anything. How do you know so much? Didn't you find someone to investigate in advance, but it's not right......"

Shen Mingjiao smiled: "You forgot where I am." ”

It took a while for him to react, yes! Shen Mingjiao was born in a tall family and was a princess, dealing with a group of imperial women all day long. These high-ranking officials and wives are the best at observing words and feelings, and they can understand their words and detours more than a dozen times, what is this little battle in front of them?

She continued to concentrate on eating the jerky, and asked vaguely, "Then when are you going to act?" ”
