Under the dim moonlight, although Qin Dong's face could not be seen clearly, his eyes flickered on and off, as if alive, revealing the emotions deep in his heart one by one. Resentment and hatred, joy and affection, the emotions of the world, regarded Qin Dong's eyes as a stage, taking turns to be performed, making Mi Fen feel a little intoxicated.
Mifen knew that Qin Dong's mood must be extremely complicated and sad at this time. She wanted to say something to comfort Qin Dong, but every time she opened her mouth, the words that came to her lips could not come out.
Da da da…
There was a sound of footsteps, and Mi Fen looked up, but it was Miao Tao, walking quickly with a food box in one hand and a wine jar in the other.
"You three, you haven't eaten yet. I'll bring you some food."[
Qin Dong smiled slightly, this Miao Tao was quite thoughtful. For monks, eating has no other meaning besides having fun and sipping the food. Miao Tao knew this, but he still sent food unnecessary, just because he had something to say.
Sure enough, after Miao Tao put the food and wine on the table, Qin Dong and the other three, who were full of guilt, said, "You three, I'm really sorry. My grandfather has this temper. You must not take it to heart."
"Your grandfather?" Qin Dong looked at Miao Tao.
Miao Tao helped Qin Dong fill up the wine and said, "My grandfather Miao Tianfang is the leader of the Dong Miao tribe."
Qin Dong saw some similarities between Miao Tao and Miao Tianfang today, but judging from their attitudes towards each other, they really didn't look like a pair of grandparents. Miao Tao never called him grandpa from the beginning to the end, and Miao Tianfang's attitude towards Miao Tao showed that he did not regard him as his grandson at all. He was shouting and yelling, and his attitude was so bad that it was not even comparable to those of the ordinary tribesmen.
Seeing Qin Dong's doubts, Miao Tao smiled bitterly and said, "My grandfather is kind to me, but he is even stricter to my father. According to his words, this is called treating everyone equally!"
As the leader of a clan, being able to treat his sons and grandsons equally with ordinary clan members is definitely a very noble quality. If this were not the case, Miao Tianfang might not be able to have such a high prestige among the Eastern Miao people.
Although Mi Fen was very unhappy with Miao Tianfang, she couldn't help but secretly admire her. However, this made Miao Tao and his father suffer, and the pressure on them must have been considerable. Although Miao Tianfang treats everyone equally, the two of them have different identities from ordinary tribesmen. If they fail to perform outstandingly, they will still be criticized. The son and grandson of a dignified patriarch, but he is like mud that cannot stand up to the wall. How can he not be embarrassed
"What about your father, among the dozen Eastern Miao monks?" Qin Dong took a sip of wine and asked casually.
After swirling the wine in his mouth several times, all the taste was absorbed by his taste buds. After swallowing, Qin Dong hadn't heard Miao Tao's response yet and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him in surprise.
Miao Tao's face was suddenly filled with sadness and dejection, which made Qin Dong's heart tremble slightly.
Sure enough, after Miao Tao took a long breath, he slowly said, "My father is dead."
"How did you die?" Although Qin Dong knew it was inappropriate to ask this question, the sadness on Miao Tao's face made him couldn't help but ask.
"They were killed by those beasts of the Western Miao tribe!" Miao Tao's face suddenly surged with anger and murderous intent, and his eyes widened with murderous intent.
"Why did they kill your father?" Mi Fen asked in shock.
Miao Tao seemed unwilling to say any more, lowered his head and drank in silence.
