MTL - After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone-Chapter 411

  Chapter 411

   "They really said that?"

  The decoration can barely be regarded as luxurious in a stilted building. The head of the water patriarch finished holding a golden pig and asked the two women who had just served tea to Shen Mingjiao and his party.

  The two women nodded: "That's what they said."

  The head of the water family waved the two of them to go down, and the dogleg beside him asked curiously: "Why haven't I heard of the thousand-year-old agarwood in our village?"

  The head of the water patriarch stroked his beard, and waved his hand indifferently:

   "What's the matter, don't those people outside like to spread how mysterious and evil our Miao people are?

  Besides, didn’t you hear it just now? They also came here after listening to some wandering Taoist. At first glance, she is a young lady who is disturbed by the world. "

  The dog leg is still a little worried: "Didn't the grandson of Patriarch Wu come to ask for medicine? Why did he bring these people here?"

"Don't worry, I've been told by others on the way that these people are actually merchants who came to collect wood. If they want to see the ancient Miao people, they should have given a lot of benefits to the ancestors of the Wu family. The patriarch Wu asked this boy to give them away. By the way."

   Gou Zuzi hurriedly suggested with a smile when he heard the words: "In this case, why don't we..." He made a gesture of wiping his neck.

  Patriarch Shui raised his hand, with a smile on his face: "I thought so too at first, but you didn't hear her say that his father is the richest man in the north, if you can trick her father..."

  The dog leg scratched his head: "But... how can I lie! We don't have any thousand-year-old agarwood in our village!"

  The head of the Shui clan frowned: "First win over people, the solution is all people come up with."

  At this time, a strong man hurried in: "Patriarch, there is news from Xizhai that the people who were captured a few days ago went on a hunger strike."

  The water patriarch patted the table irritably: "How many times have I said this, I still need to teach you this kind of thing. If she doesn't eat, you just open your mouth and feed her."

   After finishing speaking, he added with a serious face: "That's the person the saint wants, but watch carefully, if anything goes wrong, just wait and feed the snake!"

  The strong man responded submissively, and when he turned around, he spat hard in his heart.

  If it wasn't for the incident back then, when the people of the direct lineage of the Shui clan died and were imprisoned, how could it be the turn of a fool like him to be the patriarch?

  …

  With Shen Mingjiao, the "fat sheep", there was no need for them to ask for it. The head of the Shui clan used the clumsy excuse that the guests of Shenwu village must stay for three days, and kept them.

  But let Fu Ling, who came here in the name of asking for medicine, leave. After all, Fu Ling is the next head of the Wu family village, so he can't be too offended.

  Fu Ling really wanted to stay and watch the fun, but Shen Mingjiao insisted on driving him away.

   "This is our private matter. You are from Wujiazhai, and you will live here for a long time in the future. There is no need to get involved. Go back! Go back and tell your grandfather that you will not break your promise."

   After sending Fu Ling away, Shen Mingjiao led the people around and started wandering around.

  The head of the Shui tribe asked them to follow them in the name of showing them the way.

  Shen Mingjiao didn't care at all, and looked at the trees along the way every time she passed by. What's more, everyone inquired about Shen Shui Xiangmu.

  It’s a pity that there are quite a lot of houses here, but not many people live there, and the people I meet are either doing their work with a dull expression, or bowing their heads obediently and not daring to look at people. In short, they basically cannot communicate normally.

  Walking like this for a long time, naturally got nothing. Shen Mingjiao returned to the stilted building arranged for them irritatedly.

  Going back to the room, after making sure no one was overhearing, Ming collapsed on the chair and took out a pack of jerky from his arms.

   "Don't you know how to hypnotize? Just grab someone and ask them, and you will know everything?"

  Shen Mingjiao took off her robe: "I've tried it, and I can't hypnotize any of the people here."

  Ming almost bit his tongue: "So godlike, so is that water patriarch?"

   "It's not that it's impossible to hypnotize at all, it's just that it's much more difficult than ordinary people. I'm too lazy to spend that effort."

   "Then what are you going to do? You go out and wander around like this, and you can't find any news?"

  Shen Mingjiao took a sip of tea: "Who said I didn't find out?

  Shenwu village was supposed to be similar to ordinary Miao village. About ten or twenty years ago, there was a clan upheaval, many people died, and some important people in the clan were imprisoned in Xizhai.

  From then on, there were special guards in Xizhai, and no one else was allowed to enter. Some of the remaining ordinary tribesmen succumbed to the new forces, that is, Chief Shui, while others became dead and numb, or lived in trembling.

  So, if we want to find out more, we have to find a way to go to Xizhai. "

After listening to her long series of words, Ming was so shocked that the jerky in his mouth was no longer fragrant: "Those people obviously didn't say anything. How do you know so much? Did you find someone to investigate in advance, but it's not right ..."

  Shen Mingjiao smiled: "You forgot where I am."

  It took a while to realize, yes! Shen Mingjiao came from a noble family and was also a princess, dealing with a group of royal wives all day long. These high-ranking officials and wives are the best at observing words and demeanor, and they can understand a dozen turns when they speak. What is this little battle in front of them?

  She continued to concentrate on eating the jerky, and asked vaguely, "Then when do you plan to act?"
