There was already a commotion in the village, and those who heard the noise were all rushed out. The men gathered together and looked down from their heights. Everyone knew that the mountain guardian god was in the lake below.

When Aji's father arrived, he had already seen the patrol team coming up from the village, so he asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Why are you making such a big noise?!"

Someone must have broken in, there was no doubt about that. And it was precisely because of this that Aji's father was extremely angry. After all, this was the first time in so many years that someone had broken in.

The members of the patrol team were also dejected. They all knew that they had made a big mistake this time, but they really didn't expect that someone would break into the village. After all, all the way from the mountains outside to here were full of mechanisms and traps. If it weren't for someone in the village leading the way, how could anyone break in

But it’s useless to say anything now, as someone has already broken in.

After Aji's father finished his angry scolding, he began to organize people to look for them: "There are only a few roads in total. Let's see where they came from. Also, there won't be any mistakes with our ancestors, right?"

The safety of the village has always been very important, so the young and strong people basically have to take turns on duty, and the place with the most people is naturally the ancestor’s place on the top of the mountain.

That's the place where you can't go wrong no matter what.

The members of the patrol team hurriedly shook their heads. After all, the mistakes they had made were enough to cause them to die many times. However, if anything happened to the ancestor above, they would definitely die.

Aji's father didn't bother to scold anymore and turned around in a hurry to go up the mountain. What he was most worried about was what might happen on the mountain. The old man's health had actually been very poor recently, which was why he was in a hurry for Bai Xue to marry him.

Only by taking the natal Gu from Bai Xue and nourishing it with human blood, can that natal Gu replace the old man's own and prolong his life.

As long as the old man is around, the people in the village live longer than ordinary people.

Of course the old man can't make any mistakes.

But the more you fear something, the more it will come. Aji Dad ran to the top of the mountain desperately, and was horrified to find many corpses lying on the ground. Needless to say, these were the people guarding the village. He was terrified and wiped the cold sweat from his head. He urged the team following him to walk faster. Halfway through, he heard a young man's voice above his head: "You are a little too late."

Aji's father was horrified and his heart skipped a beat. When he mustered up the courage to look up, he saw a young man standing on the big rock outside the stilt house.

The young man had a tall and straight figure, and even on a night like this, one could tell from his outline that he was a very handsome man.

But at this time, Aji's father had no mood to appreciate it. He just asked coldly: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into our Miao village..."

Xiao Heng chuckled.

I don’t know why, but when Aji’s father heard the laughter, he felt confused for a moment and he no longer had the courage to sign.

Xiao Heng still looked at them calmly: "I advise you not to struggle in vain. You should know how many traps you have laid along the way. Since we can come here, it means that your tricks are no longer useful to us. In this case, it is better to stay here. Maybe those who do less evil can still have a life."

Aji's father was becoming more and more panicked. A mouthful of thick phlegm was stuck in his throat. He could even smell a faint taste of blood in his mouth. He didn't care about anything else and shouted sternly, "Arrogant boy! You don't know what life and death are!" Then he suddenly raised his hand towards Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng glanced at him coldly, but before he could move, several loud noises suddenly came from the mountainside not far away.

The sound made Aji's father sway and his movements slowed down.

At this moment, he felt a pain in his wrist and couldn't help but throw away what he was holding.

It's a poisonous insect!

He was startled, and when he saw a figure walking out from behind Xiao Heng, he said with a complicated expression: "It turned out to be you, I should have thought of it earlier, if it weren't for you guys leading the way, how could they get in!"

Bai Xue slowly came out from behind Xiao Heng, dealt with the poisonous insect, and shook her head at Aji's father calmly: "You found out too late. Besides, everything you have done over the years has already angered the heavens and the people. What happened today is only your own fault. You can't blame others."

The pain in his wrist was piercing, but Aji Dad couldn't take care of it for the moment. What he thought about was that since Bai Xue was here, then l...

Then the black woman from their village should have come as well.

Yes, the old woman has a lot of things passed down from their Miao village.

The old man had said many times before that he would find a chance to dispose of these things in Heihua Miao Village. But now...

He gnashed his teeth and cursed: "Don't think you can succeed just like this, we are not without people..."

The generals in the city are all their clansmen, and they have all been poisoned by Gu. They dare not betray the village.

Once they react, they will definitely come over.

Xiao Heng sneered: "Are you talking about those people in the capital? What a pity, their generals are sick, so they all went to the Black Flower Miao Village for treatment. I'm afraid they can't make it here in time."

Aji's father didn't expect that they had already arranged things in the capital in advance, and his eyes suddenly darkened.

At this moment, a terrible scream came from the stilt house on the top of the mountain.

This sound... .

Aji's father called out "old man" in a creepy voice and was about to rush up the mountain.

The people around him also attacked Xiao Heng's people without caring about their lives.

Xiao Heng did not hesitate and made a gesture, and the guards raised their muskets.

They were the Jinyiwei who were guarding Xiao Heng and protecting his safety. They never hesitated to kill people, not to mention that these people deserved to die. As the sound of muskets rang out, Ajidie and a group of people fell down. The Miao people who heard the slogans and wanted to rush up suddenly felt a little scared. They were a little afraid of the things in these people's hands that could make loud noises when moved.

Not long after, the noise on the mountain gradually died down, and Song Xiangyu poked his head out from above: "Your Highness, you can come up now."

Xiao Heng nodded and ordered several Jinyiwei: "Take care of this place. If any Miao people dare to trespass, they will be killed without mercy."
