Chapter 57 - Admission
After two contacts, Zhou Xinyi's impression of the ancient scale people is: thief eyebrows, rat eyes, aggressive.
But when he entered the ancient town, he found that there were still normal people here.
Although the ancient people are escaping from the world, they have not fallen behind in the modernization of the outside world, and there are several children in modern clothes in the ancient town who hold mobile phones to communicate with the stars of the outside world, and some people wear headphones and sit by the small lake to listen to music.
Anyone who noticed them, young and old, looked at them with astonishment, but there was no malice.
Brandy is a person who is good at observing words and feelings, "It seems that the ancient people are not exclusive to the outside world." ”
"Well," Jiang Yi also said, "There are also juniors of the ancient clan who go to the city to live temporarily, and occasionally invite some foreign guests from the compound. ”
As soon as Jiang Yi spoke, passers-by noticed her existence, and for a while those who listened to the song stopped listening to the song, and the chatter also closed the chatterbox, and even the playful children retracted into their mother's arms and buried their heads crampedly.
Zhou Xinyi frowned, feeling that they were like children meeting hungry wolves in bedtime stories.
"Why are they so afraid of you?"
Jiang Yi came to answer all questions about Zhou Xinyi, but this time he just glanced at those people and led the two of them to the compound.
Did he ask the question that shouldn't have been asked? Still is...... They understood when they entered the compound?
The courtyard of the ancient scale clan is a courtyard house built in a very retro style, but instead of two stone lions, two stone dragon claws more than three meters high stand at the door.
Judging from the shape and angle of the dragon's claws, it looks like a giant dragon is entrenched on the top of the mansion.
The shape of the dragon's claws does not look like that of a modern dragon, could it be that the ancient scale people of this era already have a concept of that era?
Jiang Yi stepped forward and knocked on the door of the compound.
There was a rush of footsteps behind the gate of the compound, and he ran straight into the house from the door, and when he heard this movement, Jiang Yi knew that it was the junior who guarded the door and went in to ventilate the news.
It wasn't long before another series of deliberately suppressed footsteps came from the courtyard, the one who came with a strong step, the prime of the clan, and one of them had a heavy footsteps, and must have been one of her "beloved" elders.
But these people didn't have the idea of opening the door, and the people inside and outside the courtyard were deadlocked for a few minutes, Jiang Yi sneered, and said to Zhou Xinyi and Brandy, "It seems that we are not welcome, then I won't be bored with myself, go back!" ”
As he spoke, he really took the lead and walked back.
Immediately, there was a busy sound of the door opening in the compound, "Stop! ”
Jiang Yi turned a deaf ear, not only her, but even Zhou Xinyi and Brandy did not stop for a single step.
Deliberately drying them for so long, this ancient scale clan still practices the practice of dismounting? Rather, they wanted to see who the frightened man was.
"We're just late to open the door, Jiang Yi, you can't even wait for this little time?"
Seeing that these people really didn't eat firewood, rice, oil and salt, the old man hurriedly said to the young man who was supporting her, "Go and stop them." ”
Seeing that the young man was obstructing in front of them, Jiang Yi stopped.
"Elder Lin, I want you to remember one thing today," Jiang Yi said, "It's not me Jiang Yi who took the initiative to come, it was you who asked me to come back." ”
"Of course, we won't forget it again," Elder Lin gritted his teeth, "Please come in, Miss Jiang Yi." ”
The gate was still some distance away from the courtyard hall, and Brandy, who was walking on the side, secretly glanced at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi also glanced at him and motioned for him to find a time to leave.
As soon as he entered the compound, Zhou Xinyi found that there was a large group of people sitting in the hall at this moment.
Half of them are elderly, and juniors are standing outside the hall, waiting carefully.
It seems that this ancient scale clan is still respected by the elders.
Zhou Xinyi found two familiar faces among the people seated, one was a man who visited his villa, and the other was a so-called "aunt".
And where the owner of the hall sits, there is a coffin parked, and inside is the body of my grandmother.
Jiang Yi ...... She really has the face to come back...... "As soon as I saw Jiang Yi, some juniors of the Ancient Scale Clan began to chatter.
"The thing that wants to die is not dead, and it killed my grandmother, why didn't anyone kill her?"
"Why do you have such a good face as a little monster who has a mother? I really want to ruin her ......."
Zhou Xinyi could vaguely hear some whispers, and the words that occasionally got into his ears were even more vulgar.
Jiang Yi...... Her ears are extremely sensitive, how dare these people speak openly and viciously to each other?
He looked at Jiang Yi's expression in surprise, her face was not the slightest bit unrelenting, calm, calm, and ignored.
These malices must not have started to breed from the day Jiang Yi killed his grandmother, what did Jiang Yi do to make their malice so strong.
This should be her home.
As soon as he entered the hall, for some reason, Zhou Xinyi felt that everyone's eyes were not on Jiang Yi, but on his face.
"This is your new 'head'?" That Elder Lin bit the word "person in charge" very hard, "This is not someone who can call the shots. ”
This time, Zhou Xinyi was not silent, "This elder, since you are not good to Jiang Yi, don't hold on tightly, and please let her go." ”
Hearing this, Elder Lin slapped the teacup on the table heavily, "What do you know?!" Foreigners! ”
"Elder Lin doesn't welcome foreigners, so he should get rid of me." Jiang Yi spoke in a deep voice.
"Don't forget your promise!"
"Since I found out that everything about my mother was a misunderstanding, then even if I tear it up, what does it matter?!"
Jiang Yi's restrained emotions finally cracked, she pointed at Elder Lin's face, and complained angrily, "If I hadn't become the heir, how would I have known that my mother had never loved my daughter at all?" ”
"I've been imprisoned by you for more than ten years with a lie!"
Jiang Yi shouldn't have been a member of the Ancient Scale Clan.
Her mother was an ordinary person who happened to go up to the mountain, and there were many hares in the mountains and forests at that time, and the ancient scales liked to build all kinds of traps to catch those hares and mice.
That day, her mother got lost in the mountains and forest, and accidentally stepped on a trap used to catch rabbits, and the small shallow pit collapsed underneath, and her mother was buried alive in the hollow under the earth.
Fortunately, the ancient people came in time to rescue the dying mother, and not only that, they dug a few layers under the trap and actually dug up a large pile of buried sculptures.
The sculptures resemble the bones of two dragons, one of which is killed in the earth in a protective posture, while the other opens its jaws and bites the neck of the previous dragon.
After the two "dragon remains" appeared, the ancient scale people often heard the dragon's roar from afar at night, and felt extremely lonely and sad in their dreams.
As a miracle, they carefully dug up the statue of the dragon that had been bitten to death and worshiped it in the shrine, while the sculpture of the other dragon was splashed with bright red paint and buried under the loess.
The people of the Ancient Scale Clan thought that this matter would pass, and they also regarded Jiang Yi's mother as the hero of the miracle, but they didn't expect that a week later, Jiang Yi's mother became pregnant.
Jiang Yi's mother had never been intimate with any man in those seven days, let alone a marriage match, and she had never even had a boyfriend.
The people of the clan said that Jiang Yi's mother was pregnant with the child of the dragon.
But there are two dragons in the cave, which dragon heir is she pregnant?
In any case, in line with the principle of preferring misunderstanding and never offending, Xiao Jiang was born among the stars and the moon.
Young Jiang Yi has short black hair, and when she was two years old, she liked to nest in her mother's arm and eat biscuits.
Her teeth were sharper than the average child's, and the thin, crunchy biscuits were no problem for her, and she could often eat several slices at a time, even eating the meal honestly.
Xiao Jiang Yi is well-behaved and cute, with a pair of dark and dark pupils, the only drawback is that she is two years old this year, but she can't say anything other than "mother".
That day, Xiao Jiang was still finishing her beloved biscuit and happened to bump into her grandmother's outstretched hand.
Grandma's hands are full of wrinkles, as if she saw her mother's chicken feet a few days ago!
The young little Jiang didn't understand the pain, he only knew that his teeth itched so badly that he really bit it like that.
Her teeth were already sharp, and the young child didn't know the severity of it, so she really bit her grandmother's hand out two invisible blood spots!
The belief of the ancient scale tribe has always been the red dragon that symbolizes protection.
Therefore, when Grandma was caught off guard and crashed into Jiang Yi's dark pupils, the first thing she thought of was the black dragon bone that was trapped in the hole and bit the red dragon to death!
Her hand tingled, and she didn't care if it was just a child in front of her, so she slapped it!
"I didn't learn to speak before I knew how to bite, and sure enough, I was the heir of that evil dragon!"
The mother didn't expect the reason for her grandmother's anger, she only knew to lean over to protect her daughter, "Patriarch! What are you doing?! ”
"You slut still dare to question me?!"
The mother was scolded, "She, she is just young and ignorant......"
The mother's response was another merciless slap in the face.
Grandma looked at the girl behind her mother with cold eyes, and when she saw her look, her heart trembled again.
Why didn't she cry?
Why didn't a two-year-old child have a tear when he was slapped in the face?
After that, the news that Jiang Yi was the daughter of the evil dragon spread throughout the family, and Jiang Yi's mother and daughter were imprisoned in a dark room that did not see the light of day.
The clansmen did not kill the mother and daughter of the enemy, and in their opinion, captive and mistreatment of them was the best gift to the Red Dragon.
After that, Jiang Yi never saw the bright sunshine again, and stayed in the damp dungeon with his mother every day.
Her tiny figure was huddled in a ball, and her black hair wrapped around her fair skin, making her more like a little monster born in the dark.
My mother would often wonder why her two-year-old couldn't learn to speak, and why she had to bite her grandmother that day.
If she hadn't done bad, wouldn't her life be very different from what she is now?
No, she's only a two-year-old......
The mother often secretly observes her daughter, and her strong will gradually softens.
Even though she knew the truth better than anyone else, she often wondered.
Maybe Jiang Yi is really a punishment given to her by God.
