Hearing Suru's answer, Chu Ci's pupils shrank suddenly, he lowered his head slightly and said, "Can you tell me about your family situation?"

Suru immediately sat upright after hearing this, looked at Chu Ci warily, and said, "What are you doing? I haven't agreed to be friends with you yet. Why do you know my family?"

Chu Ci's face darkened and he said disdainfully: "I don't intend to let you be my girlfriend. If it weren't for the mission, do you think I would follow you?"

"You, damn it." Suru glared at Chu Ci, her smart eyes flickered a few times, and said: "Ah, I understand, you want to surround Wei and save Zhao, and save the country through curves, right? I advise you to give up, my My family will never betray me.”

"I told you I don't want to be your girlfriend." Chu Ci gritted his teeth.

"Haha, you don't want to date me. Why do you know my family? I didn't see it. I thought you were the sultry type. I didn't expect you to be the silly type. But this kind of straightforward personality is still good. In our place Bian is very popular, but you can't tell any ugly stories before you tell them."

Seeing that Suru's words were getting more and more outrageous, and she looked like his girlfriend, Chu Ci got up and walked out.

"Hey, wait for me, wait for me, can't I tell you?"

"Boy, wait a minute."

Chu Ci was startled by the two messages of condolence. He looked back and saw the owner of the restaurant came over at some point and was waving to him with a smile.

Suru stood aside and looked at him with some confusion, "Uncle Meng, what can I do for you?"

The noodle shop owner smiled at Suru and did not explain. Instead, he took two quick steps to the front of Chu Ci and asked, "Young man, your name is Chu Ci, right?"

"Huh?" Chu Ci looked at Suru. He didn't remember that his name was exposed.

There's no way that even the owner of this Miao scenic noodle shop knows his name. Does the top pick in the country have such energy?
impossible.

Suru shook her head and said that she had never talked about him.

As if seeing the confusion between the two of them, the noodle shop owner said calmly: "Haha, it wasn't Xiaoru who told me, it was the high priest who told me that if the saint brought back a boy named Chu Ci, he would give him'."

As he spoke, he took out a slightly wrinkled piece of paper from his pocket.

"Nuo, you should be Chu Ci. I'll give it to you."

Chu Ci took it with some confusion and unfolded the paper. It was a simple topographic map with a red mark on it. He turned it over and found that the paper was blank.

Chu Ci pinched the paper and frowned slightly. Suddenly a golden light flashed in his eyes. Looking again, he saw a few more flowing words on the white paper.

[Come to Ten Thousand Snake Valley: Su]

"Ten Thousand Snakes Valley?" Chu Ci murmured subconsciously.

Suru seemed to hear it and suddenly came over. When he saw the map on the paper, he was surprised and said, "Hey, isn't this the map of Ten Thousand Snakes Valley? Uncle Meng, you have rebelled now and want Chu Ci to go directly." Huanglong?"

"What kind of betrayal? This was given by the high priest. I haven't seen what's on it." The noodle shop owner shook his head quickly.

But judging from his nervous look, he had probably read the information on the paper countless times.

In fact, this paper is not afraid of ordinary people seeing it, because the paper is somewhat special. It is a paper specially used for transmitting information in the alien circle. Only with innate energy can it be seen. Ordinary people cannot see the hidden words on it.

"Where is the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes?" Chu Ci asked.

Suru looked at the noodle shop owner, who shrugged unknowingly, indicating that he didn't know anything.

After hesitating for a moment, Suru said: "The Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes is also called the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons. It contains countless poisonous insects, snakes and ants. It is a forbidden area for our Miao people. Usually only the high priest can enter. Do you know the high priest?"

Chu Ci shook his head.

Suru said in confusion: "That's strange. You don't know the high priest. Why did he give you the map of the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley? The Ten Thousand Snakes Valley is complicated and dense with all kinds of poisonous insects. Ordinary people just want to walk in, let alone meeting the high priest. It’s hard, does the high priest want to harm you?”

Speaking of this, Suru couldn't help but shook her head and said: "The high priest has a high status, how could he harm you, but why did he give you the map of Ten Thousand Snakes Valley?" Suru thought hard and didn't understand what the high priest meant. .

Chu Ci did not explain, but asked: "Can you tell me about your high priest?"

Both of them were hesitant, but when they saw the 'map' in Chu Ci's hand, Suru still said: "Our Miao people have a clan leader, my father, who is responsible for managing other Miao people and is equivalent to the village chief. But in fact, the high priest is the chief priest. It is the soul of our Miao people. The high priest has the ability to communicate with God, know the past, know the future, and is omnipotent. The development of the Miao people in Xiangxi to what we are today is all due to the high priest and is worshiped by all Miao people.

By the way, the high priest must have predicted that you were coming, so he arranged for Uncle Meng to give you the map of Ten Thousand Snakes Valley in advance."

As Suru spoke, her face turned red for some reason, and she lowered her head without even daring to look at Chu Ci.

Chu Ci glanced at Suru, a little confused as to what was wrong with the other party, why he was so shy even though he was talking so well.

His eyes fell on the noodle shop owner. This little old man with gray hair and still strong body should be more than just a messenger.

Meng Meng smiled while Chu Ci looked at him and said: "There is an unwritten rule in our Xiangxi Miao community. On days that are not days for worshiping heaven, ordinary people are not allowed to enter."

"Ordinary tribesmen?" Chu Ci noticed the other party's wording, "It means that unusual tribesmen can enter, right?"

He looked at Suru.

Mond nodded and said with some meaning: "Yes, the people who can freely enter and leave the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley in normal times are the patriarch, the saint, and the prince-in-law."

"Prince-in-law?" Chu Ci was startled, and Suru's face turned even redder.

Mond also smiled happily.

"Aren't your saints free to intermarry?" Chu Ci became anxious.

"Huh?" Mond asked with some confusion: "Can't saints marry freely?"

"Can?"

"Of course you can. Who stipulates that saints don't have to intermarry? Have you read too many movies and novels?"

Mond didn't understand Chu Ci's brain circuit, but Suru knew it very well.

Chu Ci scratched his head and suddenly sent the paper with the map of Ten Thousand Snakes Valley back to Mond, saying: "Then I'd better not go."

"Chu Ci!" Suru immediately became anxious when she saw Chu Ci's movements, and her eyes were already sparkling a little.

Chu Ci's behavior of sending back the map was tantamount to her proposing in person and then being severely rejected.

This kind of heartlessness has a huge impact on a girl.

Seeing that things were out of control, Chu Ci said in a deep voice: "Miss Su, I don't understand the rules of your Miao territory. Please forgive me if I have offended you. If you give me a map and ask me to become your consort, this is tantamount to treating marriage as a child's play." , and we have only met twice. Isn’t it a bit unrealistic to talk about marriage?

No matter how sacred your high priest's status is in your mind, to an outsider like me, your behavior is like buying and selling by force, so I'm sorry. "

After speaking, Chu Ci did not continue to entangle with them, turned around and left quickly.

Suru looked at Chu Ci's retreating back in a daze, a little at a loss. For the Miao people, the words of the high priest were equivalent to an imperial edict, God's will, and an order they could not disobey.

"Why are you standing there, chasing after me? There may be some misunderstanding here. The high priest didn't directly ask me to be his consort, nor did he tell me anything about it. And with the high priest's doting on you, he didn't It is very likely that I will randomly assign you a marriage without your consent."

Mond said, pushing Suru and putting the map into Suru's hand.

Suru was stunned for a moment, then realized what she was doing, holding the drawing in her hand tightly and chasing after Chu Ci in the direction he left.

Looking at Suru chasing after her with her skirt up in the sunset, Mr. Mond's face showed emotion, relief, and sigh.
"High Priest, you are really right. Our Xiaoru has moved to a mortal heart. Saints are indeed free to marry, but becoming a consort will no longer have freedom. Xiaoru, the road to happiness is There is still a long, long way to go.”
