Uncle Jin is very nice, and while holding the boat, he introduced us to the nearby landscapes.

After the conversation, my mood slowly became better.

I also threw out the unbalanced premonition.

The boat had gone forward for about two hours, and by this time it was past three o'clock in the afternoon, and nothing had happened.

Al had long been accustomed to the long wait on the ship, and this trip, Uncle Kim told me, it would take four hours anyway.

Halfway to go, Al hadn't slept all night, and was already lying on the deck drowsy.

I smiled and looked at the water, the middle of the river was a little clearer than the one on the bank.

Just looking into the river, I'm stupid.

I saw a man in a quilted robe, looking up into the river, smiling.

I can't tell exactly how tall he is, but it must not be the height of a normal man.

When I tried to see the picture in front of me again, I found that the river was as clear as the water, and there was nothing.

It shouldn't.

Could it be that what I saw just now was the vision I saw because I didn't sleep well at night?

"Why? Uncle Kim talks to you. Dong Jing pushed me with her hand.

I came back to my senses and looked at Uncle Kim.

"Actually, it's fine, just talk to you. If you're tired, go to sleep, it may take more than an hour to arrive, but don't worry, I'll deliver it to you before dark. ”

Uncle Kim grinned, took out a cigarette from his bag, lit it, and handed me another one.

I caught an important point in what he just said, and he kept emphasizing that we must be delivered before dark.

"Why did you keep saying before dark? Actually, we're not in a hurry. ”

For me, safety is the most important thing.

Especially when Zhou Wenhao and his brothers happened today, I am indeed a little afraid of this river.

In addition, I just saw a man at the bottom of the river, and the man looked calm and breezy, and I don't know if he fell and no one saved him, or if he was there in the first place.

"Little brother, you don't know, this river is actually very evil. We usually don't cross the river again when it's dark. I'll find a place to rest in your stockade tonight and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning." ”

Incredible?

As soon as I heard him say this, I was curious.

"If you think it's evil, why are you crossing the river here?" I asked.

Uncle Jin suddenly had a proud look on his face: "You don't know this, the people who cross the river here are all family genes." Don't think that anyone can help people cross the river casually, only the descendants of our old Jin family still have this ability. ”

Seeing that I was stunned, Uncle Jin continued.

"Didn't you hear that there were two children swimming in the river in the morning? This river is not accessible to ordinary people, there is a river god in the river, as long as it is not our Lao Jin family, even if you cross the river, you will die. ”

I listened to Uncle Jin's words and became interested.

"Is there any old immortal in your old Jin family to protect you?" Before I could ask, Dong Jing had already asked.

I looked at Uncle Jin with a curious expression, and he smiled: "The old fairy didn't dare to be, my ancestors had a contract with the river god back then, and only our family could help cross the river, and no one else could make this money, as for what happened, I don't really know." I didn't believe it when I was younger, so I just listened to it as a joke. But the boys from the same village who came out to cross the river with me, and within three months they were all dead, leaving me alone to cross the river here for decades, and nothing happened. ”

"Didn't you all notice that the river was devoid of life? That's because the river god is controlling this area, and if there is any creature in you, you can put it in the river and look at it, and you will be dead in less than a minute. ”

Uncle Jin kept emphasizing the river god, could it be the man I saw just now?

"Alright, don't ask. I don't know if these things are true or not, and it's not good to talk too much to you young people. ”

Uncle Jin didn't speak anymore after that, so naturally we didn't want to ask again.

Before dark, as Uncle Jin said, he sent us safely to the stockade.

On the bank of the river, there is a green meadow.

Uncle Jin said that he would not leave today, so when he parked the boat, Al took him to the village.

At the entrance of the wall, there is a wooden gate.

If you want to get in, you have to talk to the two gatekeepers at the door.

They had a mouthful of black Miao dialect in their mouths.

It stands to reason that I don't understand, because I didn't know that I was a descendant of the Black Miao tribe before.

I don't know why, but I understood what they said.

This skill really surprised me.

The guards at the door, one is Daishan, and the other is Kurt.

Both of them are the grandsons of the elders.

Dai Shan looked at me and Dongjing, asked a few more questions, and then let him go.

"By the way, Al, my grandfather asked you to come and find him."

We hadn't taken two steps before Daizen stopped Al.

Al then hung his head: "Okay, I'll go now." By the way, I brought my brothers and sisters over, and I had to ask the elders for peace. ”

There are so many rules in this village that I think it's a bit incredible, and if it weren't for the fact that people here are dressed more modernly, I would have thought I was in an ancient place.

But following the customs of the locals, and I myself am a descendant of the Black Miao tribe, it is also appropriate to go over and see the elders to visit.

Following Al, we soon arrived at a grass-made house.

When the elder saw the two of us, he immediately looked defensive.

But his gaze was more on me, and his scrutiny made me feel uneasy.

"Where did you bring it from?" The elder asked Al.

Al didn't know what to answer for a moment, because he hadn't told the elder that Jade Pendant was missing from the train.

Anyway, I can understand the words of the Black Miao people, so I simply use the words of the Black Miao people to talk to the elders.

"I am from a small village in the south, and I recently found out that my grandmother is a Black Miao ethnic group, and I am her descendant, so I deliberately came to visit. I still have the notes she left for me, can you easily read them? ”

Hearing me speak with a Black Miao orthodox accent, the elder's originally tense face immediately relaxed.

He stretched out his hand to me: "You can show me, if the people of the Black Miao tribe have read the notes, I will know." You should understand that there are not many of us people left, and I don't want people from the outside world to come in and disturb our lives. ”

It was obvious when the elder said this, and he was not only explaining to me why he was so seriously scrutinizing everyone who entered the village.

He also warned me not to cause trouble in the stockade.

I nodded and handed him the notes in my hand.
