Chapter 293
Shui Miao: "You should collect it yourself first. We won't be able to go back for at least half a year."
Shui Mingjue was a little disappointed, "Oh, okay then."
Shui Miao didn't want the little guy to be too disappointed, so he thought for a moment and said, "If you really want to send it out, you can ask Ling Yi to help you make a trip."
Shui Mingjue said happily: "Is it okay?"
Shui Miao: "Ask him."
Shui Mingjue stuck his head out of the carriage, "Uncle Ling, if I want to send a letter, can you help me?"
Ling Yi heard what he said before. Besides, he also likes to run around. "Okay, young master, let me know when you want to send a letter."
Shui Mingjue shook his head happily, "Thank you, Uncle Ling!"
Ling Yi also liked Shui Mingjue, who was well-behaved and studious, and said with a smile, "You're welcome, young master."
A few people traveled another day's journey and arrived at the next stop, Nanguang City, a relatively large city in southern Xinjiang.
After entering the city, Shui Miao's appearance naturally attracted everyone's attention and scrutiny again.
After entering the inn and blocking the outside view, Shui Miao didn't want to go down anymore. She planned to stay here for a few more days and let Ling Yi inquire about various news here.
Ling Yi rushed out without even taking a break, leaving Shui Miao speechless again.
Chunmei took Shui Mingjue to a stall not far from the inn, bought some snacks unique to southern Xinjiang, and then returned to the inn.
The next day, Shui Miao didn't want to go down anymore and let Chunmei do whatever she wanted.
After breakfast, Chunmei stayed for an hour and took Shui Mingjue to go shopping again. She wanted to eat all the delicacies in southern Xinjiang and work hard to learn them. If she wants to eat them in the future, she can make them herself.
As Shui Mingjue grew older, developed physically, and practiced martial arts, he ate a lot more and liked all kinds of delicious food. He followed Chunmei with a grin on his face.
Shui Miao opened the window and looked at the passers-by downstairs, but when the window was opened, a pebble from the window frame fell on the head of a young man below.
The man noticed the touch coming from the top of his head and looked up. What he saw was the scene of the beauty leaning against the window and looking at each other.
Chi Xue: "Wow, that's the famous scene where Pan Xiaolian and the high official Ximen meet!"
Shui Miao: "What do you mean?"
I always feel like it’s not a good thing to say!
Chixue felt guilty and interrupted: "Oh, haha, it's nothing. Host, don't care about these details. Look, there is another stupid man down there who looks at you and makes you look stupid."
There is really nothing to say about the appearance of its host. I don’t know if the emperor was blind at the time. He couldn’t see such a beauty and drove him out of the palace. Was his vision too high? !
Shui Miao: "."
No longer thinking about looking outside, I simply closed the window to block the outside view.
The man below: "."
The man came to his senses and asked the entourage behind him to find out Shui Miao's identity before he returned to his house.
The entourage followed the man, and just as the man raised his head, he naturally saw Shui Miao's appearance. To be honest, he had never seen such a beautiful girl, more beautiful than the princess of Southern Xinjiang.
After hearing the man's instructions, the entourage entered the inn and asked the boss about Shui Miao. The boss knew almost nothing about Shui Miao, and the entourage didn't find out anything at all.
The followers had no choice but to go back and resume their lives.
When the man heard that his entourage brought back news that was not news, at least he knew one thing. Shui Miao was either not from Southern Xinjiang, or was a member of a hidden family, and the major event that was about to happen in Southern Xinjiang recently was Maybe she came here for the selection of the Saint.
If it is the first type, judging from her appearance, her status in other countries is not simple. He cannot act rashly. If he accidentally offends the other party, it may bring endless trouble to him.
If it is the second type, he cannot offend her. If she is chosen to become a saint, her status will be second only to the King of Southern Xinjiang, and she is not someone he can covet.
No matter how you think about it, either stay away from this person or make friends with him.
The man quickly made a decision and told his followers to stop asking about Shui Miao.
Whether they will meet or get acquainted in the future, let nature take its course.
I have to say that this is a smart man who knows what is best for himself.
On the other side of the inn, Chixue had been looking forward to the man coming to make trouble. She had all her melon seeds ready, but she never saw the man coming, nor did she see the man's entourage again.
It was disappointed, and a little bit resentful that iron is not as good as steel. Why did it give up so easily? After all, I asked the name of the host. It was really hopeless and gave up so quickly.
Shui Miao was already used to Chi Xue's attitude of watching the fun. This little thing always wanted to watch the show, and she didn't even want to whip it.
In the afternoon, Ling Yi came back from outside, "Master, I have heard a lot of news. The most important thing is that Southern Xinjiang is about to re-enter the election of a saint."
Shui Miao: "Saint?"
She had read about some situations in southern Xinjiang from books, but they were not specific. She also knew that there were saints in southern Xinjiang, but she didn't know how the saints were selected.
Ling Yi sat down and drank a glass of water, and continued: "Yes, the Saintess of Southern Xinjiang is elected every ten years. The candidates are basically young ladies from aristocratic families, and there are also commoners, but very few. Such people are usually in They will be brushed off during the primary election and will never make it to the second round.”
Shui Miao: "How many rounds of elections are there in total?"
Ling Yi: "Three rounds, the first round is about appearance and temperament. Ordinary people don't have access to good resources and upbringing. Naturally, they are not as good as women from aristocratic families in this aspect. It's normal to fail."
"Of course, if Master goes, the first round will be in vain for you and there will be no pressure."
Without waiting for Shui Miao to speak, he added: "The second round is to assess knowledge. There are also three levels of exams here. The first level is to assess drug knowledge, the second level is to assess the number of spells, and the third level is to assess the assigned patients. See a doctor."
"Only if you pass all three exams will you be considered to have passed the second round."
"The third round is to get recognition from some holy Gu."
Shui Miao: "Holy Gu?"
Ling Yi nodded, "Yes, it is said that the Holy Gu is a sacred object of the Saintess Temple of Southern Xinjiang. It has been supported by the Saints of the past dynasties. Only the Saint of Southern Xinjiang is recognized by it. Otherwise, even if the performance in the first two rounds is No matter how great it is, it doesn’t matter.”
Shui Miao: "Do you know what Holy Gu is?"
Ling Yi shook his head, "I don't know, only the saint knows what it is?"
Shui Miao frowned, "During the previous selection, it was impossible for only one person to pass the first two rounds, right?!"
Ling Yi: "Indeed, but in the second round they will be ranked, and only the first place will be confirmed with Holy Gu."
Shui Miao: "The saints of all ages have always been the first in selection?"
Could this be too much of a coincidence? !
Ling Yi didn't understand either, "I don't know."
He didn't ask in such detail, mainly because those people didn't know the more detailed content.
Shui Miao didn't embarrass him, it was enough to know this.
Shui Miao asked Chi Xue: "Do you know what the Southern Xinjiang Holy Gu is?"
Chixue shook his big furry head, "Buji Island!"
Shuimiao Black Line, "What do you know?"
Chixue felt aggrieved, "People know a lot about it!"
Shui Miao: "." Ling Yi looked at Shui Miao with bright eyes, "Master, do you want to participate in the selection of the saint?"
Shui Miao: "." At this moment, she felt that Ling Yi was the replica of Chi Xue.
She shook her head decisively, "No, and have you forgotten that I am an outsider? Do you think Southern Xinjiang will allow an outsider to occupy such a position where one person is less than ten thousand people?"
Ling Yi regretted, "Oh, okay, what you said makes sense."
He actually wanted to experience such a grand event.
Shui Miao: "Do you know who is the most powerful Gu master in Southern Xinjiang?"
Ling Yi said matter-of-factly: "Of course she is the Saint of Southern Xinjiang."
Shui Miao: "Who is the most powerful Gu master in Nanguang City?"
Ling Yi: "I heard that the head of the Qiu family is a very powerful Gu master."
Shui Miao: "Qiu family?"
Ling Yi nodded, "Well, the Qiu family is a relatively powerful family in southern Xinjiang. It is a bit like a local emperor in Nanguang City. This status is due to the head of the Qiu family's witchcraft skills."
Shui Miao: "Is the head of the Qiu family a woman?"
Ling Yi was surprised, "Master, how do you know?"
Shui Miao: "Guess."
This time it was really a baseless guess, or maybe it was my own intuition.
Ling Yi didn't ask any more questions and continued: "Although most of the candidates for the head of the aristocratic families here in Southern Xinjiang are men, women with abilities, especially in witchcraft and Gu, can also be selected as the head of the family."
Shui Miao nodded, indicating that he understood, "Do you know the character of the head of the Qiu family?"
Ling Yi: "I don't know the specifics. I just heard that he is very strict. He doesn't like attending banquets very much. He focuses more on improving his witchcraft skills."
Shui Miao: "According to what you said, she is more like the mascot of the Qiu family."
Ling Yi: "You can't even call it a mascot."
The master's choice of words is absolutely amazing. If the people of the Qiu family heard it, there would definitely be a bloody storm.
Shui Miao: "Go and visit the Qiu family again and judge whether it is possible for me to come to ask for guidance on Gu."
Ling Yi's eyes suddenly widened and he blurted out: "Master, I'm afraid you don't want to be beaten to death by the Qiu family!"
Shui Miao gave him a cold look, shutting him up instantly and running out.
Chi Xue started to talk meanly again, "Host, I think Ling Yi is right. If you come to your door and say that you want to learn the art of witchcraft, you will really be beaten to death."
Shui Miao: "It's not about learning, it's about asking for advice!"
Chixue waved her paw, "Oh, who doesn't know who? Don't make excuses for yourself."
Shui Miao: "I have no plans to become a disciple again."
It is enough to have Mr. Du as a teacher in this life.
Chixue: "Host, this is your fault. You don't want to be a disciple, but you still want to learn other people's Gu techniques. Host, you are so shameless!"
Chi Xue hurriedly covered her hare lip. Oh no, she was such a bald person and she spoke out what was in her heart.
Shui Miao: "Little one, you said you missed the whip?"
Looking at the condensed whip above her head, Chixue shook her head wildly, "No, no, no, just let it hang there."
As Shui Miao's force value increases, the transformed whip becomes thicker and thicker. It can't stand it now!
Shui Miao didn't really want to argue with it, but the whip kept hanging above Chi Xue's head.
A quarter of an hour later, Chunmei came back with Shui Mingjue, holding various kinds of food in her hands.
As soon as Shui Mingjue came in, he put what he thought was the most delicious food on Shui Miao's face and kissed him, "Mother, try these. After I ate them, I thought they were very delicious."
Shui Miao picked up the food he put on the table, ate a little of everything, nodded and said, "Well, it tastes really good."
I don't know if it's because they've lived together for a long time, but Shui Mingjue and Shui Miao's tastes are surprisingly similar.
Shui Mingjue smiled happily when he heard Shui Miao's words. The food he likes also likes it. It's great!
Chunmei wrote down the foods that Shuimiao ate more, and then studied how to make them, so that they could be easily cooked for Shuimiao in the future.
Shui Miao: "You just went to buy food?"
Shui Mingjue nodded obediently, "Well, sister Chunmei and I went to various food shops, and then we encountered a rampaging carriage."
Shui Miao raised an eyebrow: "What happens next?"
Shui Mingjue: "I pulled a young lady aside in time and the carriage did not hit her."
Shui Miao: "Not injured?"
Shui Mingjue shook his head, "No, no, I found it early, and the young lady and I are fine."
Shui Miao didn't ask any more, "Well, before you do something, think about whether you can do it, and try not to get yourself hurt as much as possible."
Shui Mingjue nodded obediently, "Yes, I understand, mother."
In the next two days, Shui Miao still didn't leave the inn, but Ling Yi never showed up again. She was a little surprised. Didn't she find out any information, so she couldn't come back yet?
Another day passed and Ling Yi was still nowhere to be seen. Shui Miao frowned. Could something have happened?
At night, Shui Miao couldn't wait any longer. After Chunmei and Shui Mingjue fell asleep, she changed into night clothes and went to Qiu's house.
Something happened to Ling Yi in the Qiu family. When he was observing on the roof of the Qiu family's head, he was discovered by the Qiu family's secret guards. Originally, he was able to escape, but he was poisoned by the head of the Qiu family, and his inner strength disappeared instantly, leaving him It fell from mid-air.
The Qiu family did not interrogate him immediately, but he was imprisoned for one night. The poison in his body took effect and he was in great pain.
They sent someone to interrogate him tonight, wanting to know who sent him here and what his purpose was.
Shui Miao came to Qiu's house, walked around but didn't find Ling Yi, and appeared directly in the Qiu's courtyard.
The Qiu family was alerted, and the guards in the mansion were dispatched, immediately surrounding Shuimiao.
A member of the Qiu family asked sharply: "Who are you? What are you doing in my Qiu family?"
Shui Miao: "I'm looking for someone."
The person who spoke before: "Are you here because of the person yesterday?"
Shui Miao was not sure whether it was Ling Yi or not, so he was silent for a moment, "Bring the person out and let me take a look and make sure."
The man frowned, "You didn't know you were here?"
Shui Miao nodded, "Well, I'm just here to make sure."
Everyone: "." Girl, are you sure you're not here to make fun of me? Do you think of the Qiu family as your home? Come whenever you want?
The elders of the Qiu family and the son of the head of the Qiu family also came.
Coincidentally, the son of the head of the Qiu family was the man whose head was hit by a pebble.
Shui Miao still had the scarf on her face, so the man didn't recognize him immediately, but he just felt that Shui Miao's eyebrows were familiar.
Shui Miao looked at more and more people and asked politely: "Can you bring people out?"
