The woman looked like she was a teenager, and she was wearing the unique costume of the Wumiao girl. There were strings of silver bracelets between her wrists. When she lifted her hands in surprise, the silver bracelets collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
Seeing the person next to Jiang Si, she swallowed the words that followed, and the look in Jiang Si's eyes became uncertain.
Jiang Si had an inspiration and said in a low voice.
Speaking is Umiao.
The girl said "Yeah" and immediately saluted Jiang Si, her expression was extremely excited, and a series of Wu Miao words were spoken.
A Man was confused when he heard it, turned his head to look like Jiang, and suddenly noticed that the temperament of the very familiar master had changed.
If Jiang seemed to be a casual lady of the capital when she entered the shop, her expression is now condensed and reserved, like a snow lotus blooming on the top of a snowy mountain, with boundless tranquility in her eyes.
Aman couldn't help hiding his mouth, and said in his heart: The master is going to fool people again, I hate that she can't understand what this little hoof is saying, and can't help the master at all!
It’s not easy to be a maid, not only to master the techniques of murder and arson, but also to learn foreign languages...
The girl stretched out a hand and made a gesture of inviting Jiang to enter.
Jiang Si nodded slightly and walked inward under the leadership of the girl.
Seeing Aman was about to follow, the girl stopped and said in Da Zhou language: "Please stay."
Aman's eyes widened: "I want to follow my master!"
The girl shook her head and refused.
Jiang seemed to want to inquire about the news from the Wumiao girl, naturally unwilling to cause an accident, and gave Aman a wink and said, "Aman, just wait here."
"but--"
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Si gently touched the purse around his waist.
Aman breathed a sigh of relief.
It comes to mind that the master's purse has been prepared for all year round, to clean up this little girl a piece of cake.
After bypassing the counter and entering a small room inside, the girl immediately knelt down and bowed, calling her a saint.
Listening to the girl's name, Jiang Si was a little embarrassed.
She had lived as a saint Asang for several years. She learned a lot about the saint’s habits from Elder Wumiao and Asang’s personal servant girls, but she didn't expect it to come in handy now.
Jiang Si never thought that an anonymous shop in the same street as Lu Shengxiang was actually opened by a Wu Miao woman. It seems that there is always a hand pushing her to meet the Wu Miao tribe.
This thought made her a little uncomfortable.
The past life has been turned over with her misunderstanding about Yu Qi, and she doesn't want to bring back those unpleasant memories.
"Holy woman, you are not practicing in retreat, why are you here?" The girl asked puzzled.
They only went back to the clan, and heard from the clan that the saint had been in retreat and hadn't appeared in front of them for a long time.
Jiang Si frowned slightly and glanced at the girl.
The girl immediately bowed her head to apologize.
"There are some things you don't need to ask."
The girl promised, it's no wonder that the saint hadn't appeared for a long time, it turned out that something came to Dazhou Capital.
Jiang Si asked slowly in Wu Miao language, "Did someone buy Initiation Gu from here not long ago?"
The girl froze for a moment, and nodded quickly: "Yes."
"Tell me a detailed story."
The girl recalled, and said: "A lady who accidentally entered the shop more than a month ago. Seeing that I am from Southern Xinjiang, she asked me if I had Initiation Gu and said that she would like to buy it with a lot of money..."
Jiang Si frowned, and said coldly: "There are rules in the clan that you are not allowed to give Gu worms to foreigners at will, and the Initiation Gu is not an ordinary gu, how can you get it as you?"
She was holding the saint's frame, and the girl immediately kowtow with horror.
"I beg the saint for forgiveness, there is really no way for a lowly girl. Huaos was seriously ill at that time and needed money to buy precious medicinal materials..."
"Where did you get the Initiation Gu?"
In Wumiao, women's use of Gu is common, but some special Gu is difficult for ordinary people to obtain. Initiation Gu is one of them.
Jiang Si has lived in southern Xinjiang for several years and knows this very well.
"Initiation Gu is from Huaos..." The girl knelt to the ground, shivering.
For the Wumiao people, the elders and saints have the supreme status and should not be offended.
Jiang Si suddenly became suspicious of the girl's grandmother.
Being able to possess Initiation Gu indicates that this person's identity in the Wu Miao nationality is not simple.
Given that the young girl’s age is unlikely to overlap with Princess Rongyang, what about the girl’s grandmother?
"When did you come to the capital?"
The girl hesitated.
"Ok?"
"The girl is the capital of Dazhou that came early last year."
Jiang Si looked at the batik curtain leading to the small shop lobby: "This shop opened early last year?"
The girl didn't dare to conceal it, and said, "The shop has been open for many years. Huaos came to the capital of Dazhou more than ten years ago."
More than ten years ago...
Jiang Si moved in his heart.
Initiation Gu is not easy to come by. Is it related to the girl's grandmother that her mother died after being cast by someone more than ten years ago?
Seeing Jiang Si's expression of thought, the young girl didn't dare to show her grandeur, she only quietly looked at her, her eyes full of reverence and curiosity.
The saint is the first beauty of their Wu Miao nationality, and the person with the highest talent for practicing alien arts.
She used to only look at the saint from a distance, but she did not expect to be so close now...
The girl flushed with excitement and her eyes sparkled.
"Do you know the specific time?" Jiang Si asked.
The girl hurriedly lowered her eyes and shook her head: "I don't know when, but the girl never asked Huaos."
"Where are you going?" Jiang Si decided to be the real owner of the shop for a while.
The girl immediately said, "Huaos is not in good health, so I will rest behind. The girl will call Huaos to see you."
"Well, you go." Jiang Si's voice was faint, not at all polite.
She is very aware of the position of the saint in the Wu Miao ethnic group.
If placed in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Wumiao Saintess is equivalent to the prince. The saint is to prop up the future of a race with her own talent and hard work, and the love and reverence of the Wumiao for the saint is beyond words.
In comparison, the prince was thrown to the horizon. I don't know how many people in Zhou secretly called the prince a fool.
The girl bowed and left, and Jiang Si waited quietly.
The small compartment was filled with a faint fragrance of herbs.
It was a smell that made her familiar and unfamiliar.
As soon as the curtain shook, Aman quietly probed: "Master"
"Go out and tell Long Dan not to worry about me."
Except for Elder Wumiao, it is not so easy for other Wumiao people to embarrass her.
Jiang Si still remembers the admiration of Elder Wumiao that she often harvested when she practiced different arts in southern Xinjiang.
Elder Wu Miao even sighed that if she hadn't known that she was from Da Zhou, she would think she was the chosen saint of the Wu Miao tribe.
Ah Man retracted his head, leaving the batik curtains shaking slightly.
Not long after the sound of footsteps sounded, the girl walked in with an old woman from the other side of the door leading to the backyard.
"See the saint--" an old voice sounded.
Jiang Si turned his head and looked at the old woman.
The old woman also looked at her.
Unlike the respect of a young girl, the old woman has scrutiny in her eyes.
Before Jiang Si could speak, the old woman suddenly changed her face and shouted angrily in Wu Miao language: "You are not a saint!"
