Chapter 130: Forced Marriage
Although the Ten Thousand Gu Gate was far away from the Central Plains and was in a wild place within the 100,000 Great Mountains, Lu Chengfeng had lived a very peaceful life during this period of time in addition to healing. Every day on this suspended building, I enjoy this beautiful scenery and talk with Shangguan Xing'er, but I also feel very comfortable. Of course, if you don't experience some setbacks and pains, this peace is difficult to experience, you must know that there are many people in this Ten Thousand Gu Gate who have never been out of the mountain, but they also want to go outside the mountain to see the prosperity of the Central Plains.
Although Qiao Meijiao is a female streamer, she also governs the entire Ten Thousand Gu Sect in an orderly manner, and her prestige is extremely high. But everyone in the door, young and old, is respectful when they see her, and many people look at her first. Although this woman is vicious outside, she is extremely friendly to all the mature Miao clans in the hinterland of the 100,000 mountains, perhaps this is the reason why she responds to the call of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect! However, in troubled times, it is also commendable for a woman to be in such a high position as a chief and lead so many people, at least under his leadership, the race has survived for hundreds of years and is still thriving, which is very important to the entire race.
At this time, the entire Qingfeng Temple was already full of Gu masters and wizards, including the high priest, of course.
The High Priestess was a tall, plump woman, dressed in a colorful robe that dragged vertically to the ground, and of course the most striking thing was the green feathers on her head that stood like a peacock opening a screen. Such a unique dress can easily show her unique status in the door, and the green and crystal clear fairy bamboo cane in her hand is a symbol of authority.
But today's Qiao Meijiao seemed to be in an extremely bad mood, only to see her sit on the chair after dropping the cup in her hand with one hand, and said angrily, "I don't want to marry that fierce seedling Qu Leiyang if I die, I don't want to be ......with him for anything."
The high priest said, "This is a marriage contract made by the old chief and the chief of the Mengmiao tribe himself, if you don't obey, won't you break the rules?"
"No matter what the rules are, I just don't want to be with her......"
Qiao Meijiao's angry appearance at the moment clearly doesn't want to be the head of the family, but she is more like a child who collides with her parents. Seeing that she did not comply, the high priest had to pull down his old face again and began to persuade her bitterly.
The Mengmiao clan and the mature Miao clan belong to the same Jiuli tribe, and they also worked for Chiyou back then. It's just that after the dispersion of forces, the forces of the two races at that time were relatively small, and in order to ensure the continuation of the race, they had already set the rules back then. If the next generation of the two chiefs is the same man, then they will become brothers with different surnames, if they are both women, they will marry Jinlan, and if they are a man and a woman, they will be married. Now the power of the Wan Gu Sect is growing stronger and stronger under the leadership of Qiao Meijiao, while the Meng Miao clan is declining, but the rules set by the older generation are unbreakable. If anyone violates this agreement, it will be regarded as treachery and disrespect to the old chieftain by the people of the two tribes, which can be regarded as a great matter within the Miao people.
When the high priest was still talking about this, Qiao Meijiao couldn't hold it back, and even stood up and shouted, "I said that if I don't marry her, it's useless for you to force me again!"
And the high priest was obviously a little angry, and stopped the bamboo cane in front of her and shouted, "Although the power of the Mengmiao clan is declining day by day, Qu Leiyang and his people are dignified, both civil and military. This kind of talent is beneficial to my familiar Miao family. Besides, it's not up to you and me to decide on this matter, the rules of the past hundred years must never be broken, don't be willful!"
Just when Qiao Meijiao was about to get angry, Zhang Jiu smiled, leaned over to him and whispered a few words before walking away. But Qiao Meijiao's face suddenly showed joy and said, "If I tell Qu Leiyang that I belong in my heart, then he shouldn't force me to be with him, right?"
"Where does the heart belong?" the high priest asked, after a moment's pause, "who is it?"
However, Qiao Meijiao sold Guan Zi and refused to tell her name, but she said another thing. It turned out that she had traveled thousands of miles to the Emei Golden Peak, but in addition to seizing the Ming Hong Knife, there was a more important matter. That is, before leaving, she found the half-immortal of the sect and asked about the marriage, but if she met a man who could drink and had a red face on the way, that was where her marriage in this life was.
Even if he is a half-immortal, he is not welcomed within the Ten Thousand Gu Gate, just because he has a wife like a tiger, and anyone who wants to get close to him will be scolded back without exception. Only when Qiao Meijiao approached him would her tigress not have a seizure, and I don't know if it was because she was the chief. This person has studied the I Ching gossip all his life, can pinch and calculate, and is said to be able to predict the future of half of his life. And this person will paint from time to time for fun, although he has painted a lot of paintings in his life, most of them have been either thrown away or burned by his wife. He is also tired of it, although every time he paints, his wife will scold him for not doing his job, but he still secretly paints while his wife is away.
He has a habit of running to an extremely empty place and yelling whenever his hard-working paintings are torn up by his wife, like a madman. As for whether he can really tell fortunes and predict the future, there is no way to know, anyway, he has been looked down upon all his life. Most people say that he is a madman, just because in these troubled times, he does not think of practicing witchcraft in order to survive, and prefers to do some useless things. More people don't believe in his supernatural powers, but if this person really has the supernatural ability to predict the future, he himself will not end up like this, and he will be accompanied by a tiger all day long.
In the eyes of the high priest, this man was a madman, and now when he saw that this Qiao charming and delicate chief actually believed the words of this madman, he was furious at the moment, and shouted, "How can you, as a chief, ask about marriage with such an unreasonable person, it is really a great mistake in the world! Anyway, I don't care whether you belong to it or not, Qu Tiyang will send someone over tomorrow, and you yourself must prepare in advance!"
Qiao Meijiao was in a hurry for a while, and immediately told the news that Longkong Gate had gathered many decent people to come to the 100,000 Great Mountain, but she didn't tell the real cause of the incident, only that they came for Ming Hongdao.
However, the high priest turned all his attention to the Ming Hung Sword, and repeatedly asked about the whereabouts of the Ming Hong Knife. It's just because she was busy cultivating before, but now she is even more interested in mentioning such artifacts. After Qiao Meijiao shook the Jiuli pot with a smile, after seeing a blood-colored red light shooting out of it, the high priest couldn't help but smile, "The treasure knife of the Divine Monarch has finally been returned to its original owner! It seems that the revival of my Miao clan is hopeful!"
