One hundred and seventy-two · Killing intent

It was getting dark, and lanterns were lit up and down in Lijiang Village.

There are corridors and alleys everywhere in the village. Red lanterns are lit along the stilted buildings at the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. They are curved like a fire dragon. Looking up from the foot of the mountain from a distance, they look like a huge moon.

.

When Aji arrived at the village, he dismounted his horse and threw it to the people who hurriedly caught up to help him. He walked up quickly with a straight face. Many people wanted to come over and say hello along the way, but when they saw his expression,

No one dared to offend him, so they all dispersed automatically, knowing that he had a bad temper.

Walking all the way to the mountainside, he saw the familiar stilted building, his expression softened a little, and he called out "Ama".

Immediately after, a woman in an apron came out. Seeing Aji like this, she responded with a smile and said, "Did you go to the Black Flower Miao Village again? You bastard, how many times have I been told that you are

You don’t even listen, you are a girl, you have to give in to others, otherwise, how could they like you?"

Aji felt a little impatient in his heart: "Mom, what do you know? My father-in-law asked me to go. I don't like that fierce woman! She is a traitor to our Miao village! She is a licentious woman!"

The woman smiled coquettishly. Seeing that her son looked unhappy, she didn't say anything more. She just wiped her hands with her apron and hurriedly said with a smile: "Okay, okay, then forget it, forget it."

You are back, go take a bath first, I made the peppercorn chicken you like to eat, and you can eat it after you finish cleaning it."

Aji breathed out in a depressed tone: "If I don't eat, I have to go up the mountain to find my father-in-law. Where is my father?"

The woman said oh, a little worried: "They are all in the mountains and haven't come back yet."

Aji ignored her, said he was going up the mountain, and quickly walked away from the fence.

The woman hurriedly followed out, but she could only see Aji's back. Further ahead was a forbidden area in the village. Except for a few men and Aji who could go up, no one else, not even her, could go up.

.

The red lantern above was still swaying in the wind, looking like a legendary will-o'-the-wisp from a distance, making people shiver for no reason.

She stared at the red lantern for a while, turned around with an ugly expression, and heard movement in the alley next to her. She was startled, and subconsciously walked over when she heard the cry of a child.

It was a group of children, all about twelve or thirteen years old. Of course, they were all much shorter and thinner than ordinary children. At this time, they were all being scolded by the adults and were being driven into a stilted building.

When they saw her, the Miao people had a rare good look on their faces, and they all called her "sister-in-law" politely.

Ajiniang nodded. Seeing that the children were crying hard, her eyebrows skipped a beat and she asked softly: "Where are you taking them?"

The faces of the Miao people were all normal, and they said matter-of-factly: "After listening to the village leader, take them all to the top, but it's too late tonight, let's do it tomorrow."

Tomorrow, these children will no longer exist.

Ajiniang nodded, glanced at the children with a bit of unbearability, and finally turned around and walked away quickly.

When she got home, she began to kowtow to the statue on the altar table and pray.

At this time, Aji had already reached the top. He walked to the top of the gorgeous stilted building with familiarity. He asked the gatekeepers: "Where are my father and father-in-law?"

Everyone downstairs knew him, so they came over respectfully and changed his shoes: "They are all inside, just go in."

Aji snorted, kicked off his shoes and went upstairs. When he walked to the room at the innermost corner, he heard his father's voice.

Aji's father was explaining inside: "I don't know what's going on. Their Black Flower Miao Village has been very difficult to talk to recently. I don't know what the effect will be if Aji goes there this time."

Aji paused for a moment, and then heard a very old voice coming from inside: "That's to give them face! If Aji hadn't fallen in love with that voodoo girl, do they think they could negotiate terms with us? If it was shameless, then

Don't delay, the lackeys from the imperial court are still struggling, if they want to join the lackeys, then go to hell!"

As soon as this voice sounded, there was silence inside. Even Aji stopped. After a while, he softly called out: "Grandpa."

The sounds inside stopped for a while, and after a while, someone shouted: "Come in."

Aji agreed, opened the door and went in, and saw an old man sitting on a bamboo bed.

Aji didn't know how to describe it. He actually saw this scene every day, but when he saw it every day, he still couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart and get frightened.

After all, it was difficult for him to describe clearly the feeling he felt facing an old man who he knew was nearly one hundred and ninety years old.

The smell on the old man's body was very strong, a rotten smell with some repulsiveness. Aji calmly held back his breath, stepped forward and kowtowed to him.

Dad Aji coughed and asked him, "How did things go? What did the people in Black Flower Miao Village say?"

Aji pursed his lips, with a somewhat resentful look on his face: "Alan refused to let us take Bai Xue away, saying that the marriage had not yet been decided. I had a fight with them, and that old guy Alen's natal poison was released.

I can't beat it"

A Lun is an elder of the Black Flower Miao Village, but Aji is still a young man under the age of twenty. There is such a big difference between the two that it is normal for them to be unable to fight.

Aji's father was not angry, but frowned and said: "It seems to be true. There has been a saying in the village for a long time that the Black Flower Miao Village saved the Han people and was very close to the people of the imperial court. They refused to let Aji live or die.

Ji Shangshan, I'm afraid it's true."

Aji felt relieved when he said all this, but at the same time he was a little worried.

He was angry today because he was angry at the Black Flower Miao Village for making so much noise that Bai Xue refused to go down the mountain to take a look.

He didn't believe that Bai Xue, as a saint of the Miao village, didn't know that he was there, but Bai Xue didn't react at all. She was his fiancée! Even though there was some unpleasantness between the two parties a while ago, this marriage was already done early.

It's settled, everyone knows this.

But Bai Xue actually watched Allen and the others indifferently as they made things difficult for him.

Fortunately, he still wanted to cover up for them in front of Grandpa, but now they had offended him so badly that he would no longer speak for them.

Sure enough, the old man above snorted coldly: "You are really looking for death! You must be thinking that because you are relying on the court, you think we won't dare to do anything to them. You go and prepare."
