"So, now that the Yin Miao people have learned about the prosperity of the outside world, they have begun to want to integrate into the outside world and integrate into society?"
Yan Kai asked.
"No, quite the opposite."
Lu You shook his head.
"?"
"It is precisely because we know the situation outside that after deliberation among all the clan members, we decided to continue to implement the previous clan rules and resolutely not contact the outside world, at least not let the outside world contact us!" Lu You said very firmly, and then his tone leaked. , and added, "Well, of course, the network cannot be disconnected..."
Yan Kai was a little troubled and didn't understand the motives of the Yin Miao people for doing this. They knew clearly about the colorful world outside. How could thousands of people be able to endure the loneliness in the mountains?
"What are you going to do out there? Without work experience and not graduating from a prestigious school, how can people find a job? Even if they can find a job, can they afford a house?"
Lu Xuer conducted a series of soul-searching torture on Yan Kai.
"Ah this..."
Yan Kai found that he couldn't answer Lu Xuer's questions at all.
Lu Xuer said with a smile: "The tribe has long been accustomed to the life in the mountains. If we are forced to go out, we can't adapt! Moreover, now the tribe has internet, electricity, and running water. The only bad thing is to pick up express delivery. We have to run dozens of miles, but this is nothing to those of us who practice martial arts, so we decided not to go out from the mountains, and we don’t want outsiders to come in, and continue to maintain the status quo. This is the best thing for us. the best!"
Lu You slapped Lu Xu'er on the head: "Other older clan members are like this. You girl doesn't go out just because you don't want to go to school! Why are you saying so nice!"
It is true that the older generation of the Yin Miao people have chosen not to go out, but for the newborns in the tribe, they still ask for their wishes and send them to school outside. There are only some children who have learned martial arts and Gu magic, fearing that they are too young to know their importance. , when the outside world abuses their power, they can only stay in the clan and are not allowed to go out.
And this played into Lu Xuer's plan.
For Lu Xuer, the days of watching dramas and watching TV shows without worrying about anything were like a fairy. She didn't want to go out and suffer!
Don’t think that the Yin Miao people are poor just because they hide in the deep mountains and wild forests. In fact, the Yin Miao people are not short of money. Although the environment in the surrounding area is harsh, it is also because they are inaccessible and there are many medicinal materials that are very old and abundant. Otherwise, they would not From time to time, herbal collectors accidentally enter the territory of the Yin Miao people. Those medicinal materials are treasures and are a major source of income for the Yin Miao people.
Not to mention that many of the first generation members of the Yin Miao tribe were the heads of various Miao tribes and their families. They brought many valuable items with them when they lived in seclusion, including even royal gifts given by the Ming court when they wanted to win over the Miao people. Things are priceless.
In the past, the Yin Miao people had no communication with the outside world, and those objects had no use other than being used as toys for children. But now that the Yin Miao people have communication with the outside world, those objects naturally have ways to cash in. The Yin Miao people only sold part of them and exchanged them. Huge wealth was brought in, and the money was handed over to a trust company with good reputation. The income generated was used to improve the living conditions of the Yin Miao people, and anyone who stayed in the Yin Miao people could enjoy the benefits.
The whole clan shares the income brought by the trust. If you want more, you can go to the mountains to collect herbs. Moreover, many expenses are unnecessary when living among the Yin Miao people, so the lives of the Yin Miao people are really nourishing.
In fact, if Anming Takashi discussed his family's situation with the Yinmiao people, the Yinmiao people would have regarded Anming Takashi as one of their own and would definitely be willing to lend money to Anming for construction.
After all, the loaned money does not mean that it will be wasted. Now Anming Construction is just in urgent need of a working capital. As long as there is an injection of funds, it can survive the most difficult period. With the foundation of Anming Construction, it will be able to get up soon and borrow money. The money you paid can naturally be repaid, and you may even get a good amount of interest.
It's a pity that Anming Takashi didn't do this. He chose the worst method and didn't even discuss it with the people of the Yin Miao tribe.
Perhaps, even if he planted the Tongxingu, even if he married a woman from the Yin Miao tribe, Anming Guizhi never regarded himself as a person from the Yin Miao tribe. Even if he did various good deeds, it was still engraved in his bones. Selfish and greedy nature.
In the past, his favorable family conditions allowed him to appear as a kind-hearted young man in front of others. Once the family was in trouble, the bad qualities hidden in his heart immediately burst out. However, after the incident, the superficial personality formed over the years took over. When he got the upper hand, he showed great remorse and wanted to die to apologize.
"In short, although our clan has contact with the outside world, we still maintain the past rules and try to avoid contact with the outside world."
Lu You coughed and said.
"..."
I always feel that the life of the Yin Miao people is a bit enviable...
Yan Kai couldn't help but wonder.
"I remember that An Ming Takashi started to get sick four days ago. In other words, there are only three days left for Sunset Hongxia? Today is Thursday. If we really wait until the weekend to take action, even if we succeed once, we will definitely I can’t wait for you to go back, so you’re in such a hurry, right?”
Yan Kai asked Lu You and Lu Xuer.
"Yes, that's it."
Lu Xu'er had a sad look on her face. She might not care about the holy object, but she definitely didn't want her best friend to leave the world with guilt. It was obvious that she had done nothing wrong at all. The only thing she did wrong was that she was careless and trusting others.
"So, what does that sacred object that you are too lazy to pay attention to look like? I know it is a gem, but what kind of gem is it?"
Yan Kai asked.
We chatted about the holy object for a long time, but Yan Kai didn't even know what the holy object looked like.
Since it was too late for the red sunset, even if there was little hope, he had to try to search in advance to see if he could find the whereabouts of Nishikawa Masaaki and find the sacred objects of the Yin Miao people.
After hearing Yan Kai say that he wanted to know what the sacred object medal looked like, Lu Xuer thought for a while and shook his fist.
"What's the meaning?"
Yan Kai said doubtfully.
"I mean, the holy object is a diamond about the size of my fist."
Lu Xuer said.
"hiss……"
Even if Yan Kai was not interested in gems, which could only be seen but not eaten, he couldn't help but take a deep breath after hearing Lu Xuer's words.
Although Yan Kai had already guessed from An Ming Hidexi's performance that he was able to sell the sacred objects of the Hidden Miao people for 5 billion yen and thought the sale was cheap, the sacred objects of the Hidden Miao people would not be simple, but a diamond the size of a fist...
Yan Kai has not done any research on gems, so it is difficult to estimate their specific price, but it must be at least tens of billions of yen, right? No wonder Nishikawa Masaaki refused so quickly, or even acted stupid. No one in their right mind would be able to return something worth 10 billion worth of things that he spent 5 billion to pick up at the original price.
"Let me tell you, even if such a big diamond is not a sacred object in your clan, you shouldn't be so careless about it, right?"
Yan Kai said quite helplessly.
If it were anyone else, if they had such a treasure at home, they would definitely hide it in the safest place. How come it went to the Yin Miao people and left it in the ancestral hall without defense, so that just anyone could steal it.
"Because it's a black diamond, as black as black charcoal. I don't even bother to take a second look at it. Who would think it is a treasure?" Lu Xuer frowned.
"..."
It turns out that not looking good is the reason why you don’t take sacred objects seriously...
Yan Kai said silently.
However, although black diamonds are not good-looking, they are colored diamonds after all. It is said that only one colored diamond can be mined for every 100,000 natural diamonds mined. The price of colored diamonds is many times that of colorless diamonds. The most expensive of them is red diamonds. Generally speaking, black diamonds are not pleasing to the eye, but they are one of the colored diamonds after all. Their price is undoubtedly much higher than that of colorless diamonds, especially the black diamonds that are about the size of a girl’s fist and weigh more than 2,000 carats. They are said to be priceless. It’s not an exaggeration.
But soon, Yan Kai had new doubts.
"Didn't you say before that the sacred object was removed from the scepter that represents the power of the Miao people? Then why is it black? A gem of this color is not suitable to be inlaid on an instrument that represents power like a scepter, right?"
Yan Kai asked again.
Weight represents this power. It needs to be eye-catching enough to make people notice that it is extraordinary at first glance. Therefore, it is generally required to be dazzling and must be very dazzling. A black gem is inlaid on the scepter, which makes the color Kai felt a strong sense of dissonance.
Lu You didn't hesitate and answered Yan Kai directly: "That diamond was originally colorless, but later it turned black due to some reasons."
"..."
Can this diamond be dyed?
Yan Kai was once again rendered speechless by the magical Yin Miao tribe.
Seeing that Yan Kaixin's doubts were not eliminated but deepened, Lu You continued to explain: "My ancestor... was the one who practiced the "Celestial Silkworm Demonic Art". Of course, he was deprived of martial arts by the Tang Daxia of the Wudang sect, but because of "Celestial Silkworm Demonic Art" The characteristics of "Magic Skills", after a period of recuperation, the Magic Skills actually revived. But at that time, the ancestor was tired of the vendetta, and living in the deep mountains with his lover was his greatest ideal in life. In order not to let the Magic Skills affect him With his mind, he poured all the recovered magic power into the holy object, and over time, the holy object changed from colorless to black."
"Wait, what does it mean over time?"
"Ah, that is to say, my ancestor, every time he poured the magic power into the holy object, it would recover after a while, so he could only continue to pour the magic power into the holy object until the ancestor passed away, a total of nine times. , the holy object changed from colorless at first to gray-black and finally became pure black."
Lu You replied.
"..."
Your magic power is a bit unbelievable. This is...
Yan Kai was speechless again.
Normally, if a master's martial arts is abolished, it will take a lot of time and hardship to practice it again, but how come the ancestors of the Yin Miao tribe have to worry about why their martial arts cannot be abolished...
However, Yan Kai remembered that Yan Fei said that "Celestial Silkworm Kung Fu" is a very miraculous martial arts. This martial arts is like a life. It will operate automatically even if the practitioner is unconscious, and can even operate when the practitioner is seriously injured and on the verge of death. It is not surprising that he performs like this by helping cultivators transform into cocoons.
"Anyway, let's do this for now." Yan Kai packed up the food box and said to Lu You and Lu Xu'er, "I will try to find out the whereabouts of Nishikawa Masaaki first, and it is best to help you retrieve the sacred objects before the weekend. And you, Just hide in this school for the time being. Now the Metropolitan Police has suspended its pursuit of you, but the 'True Martial Arts Group' and the Wushu Association will not let you go. Even if these two organizations have no masters, they can contact the Japanese martial arts community. Experts are here to deal with you, so you'd better not go out, it will be very troublesome if someone discovers your whereabouts."
The private Shinjian School is a restricted area for both the Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency, and even for the Wushu Association. Without conclusive evidence, they dare not enter the private Shinjian School to search, so Lu You and Lu Xuer are safe for the time being. of.
Before leaving, Yan Kai suddenly remembered something: "By the way, have you figured out how to leave Japan? I'm afraid you won't be able to go back through normal means."
Lu You and Lu Xu'er had shown their faces at An Ming's house, and their identity information had been exposed. It would be difficult to go back through normal means.
Lu Xuer shook his head calmly: "It's okay. Grandpa Baimei said he would make arrangements. As long as we get the sacred objects back, he will find someone to arrange for us to leave safely."
Yan Kai's eyes twitched: "Is the Grandpa Baimei you are talking about..."
"That's right, it's Wudang Taishang Elder Baimei Zhenren."
Lu You nodded.
"..."
Damn it, why is it him...
Yan Kai held his forehead and said.
"Not only are we going back, we are here because Grandpa Baimei sent us here."
Lu Xuer said to Yan Kai.
"..."
Come on, this ancestor himself has been permanently restricted from entering Japan...
Yan Kai said speechlessly.
As for why Taoist Baimei was permanently restricted from entering Japan, it’s because he came to Japan once more than ten years ago in the name of attending a religious conference and burned a shrine in Chiyoda District. Well, yes, it’s a very famous one. .
"Grandpa Baimei said that we in the Central Plains must get back the things stolen and robbed by the Japanese, so he sent us over to Japan, otherwise it would not be easy for us to come to Japan!"
Lu Xuer said with a smile.
"..."
I'm really not surprised at all when you say that. After all, that ancestor was famous for hating Japanese people, and he was also famous for having a bad temper...
Yan Kai smiled bitterly.
As the Wudang Peak among the "Three Poles and Fifteen Peaks" of the Central Plains, Taoist Baimei not only has superb martial arts skills, but also has an astonishing seniority. He is the only remaining veteran of the Anti-Japanese War in the martial arts community of the Central Plains. Whether he is the King of the South or the Peak of the North, in this martial arts community of the Central Plains, Elders who are over a hundred years old must also perform discipleship rituals in front of them, and do not dare to take a breath.
Xue Wenhai integrated hundreds of martial arts schools, stayed in Wudang Mountain for half a year, and learned the essence of Tai Chi from Taoist Baimei. The reason why Taoist Baimei taught Xue Wenhai this secret of Wudang that was not taught in Wudang was because of Xue Wenhai's extraordinary talent. He also asked Xue Wenhai to snatch the Japanese women back to the Central Plains so that the Central Plains people could vent their anger.
Although this Wudang master is a monk, he is very ambitious and does not have the tranquility that a Taoist should have. Outsiders respectfully call him "Zhenren", but he always says that he does not have the cultivation of a real person and can only be regarded as a Taoist. He is unhappy. , he would recognize him when he was called "Zhaomao" or "Niubi". Of course, no one in the Central Plains martial arts community dared to call him that, so he was usually called "Taoist Master Baimei" in person, but he still called him in private. He was called "White-mei Zhenren" to show his respect.
