The Night Watchman of Another World: I know a lot of things

Chapter 168: 32 Consultation Fee

The next morning, just after daybreak, Bai Jiujiu came to find Yang Qing.

"You are lucky to have met me. Among all the Miao tribes, only our Bai Miao are relatively friendly to you Chu people. Now there are still many of you Chu people living in our village."

When seeing Yang Qing, Bai Jiujiu spoke in a familiar manner.

"Are you Miao people still divided into many tribes?" Yang Qing asked.

“Well, we Miao people are roughly divided into two major tribes: the White Miao and the Black Miao, which are what you Chu people often call the cooked Miao and the raw Miao.

In addition, there are eight other ethnic groups including Yi, Bai, Dong, Yao, Dongba, Naxi, and Tujia, collectively known as Jiuli.

Although it is called Miaojiang, the Miao ethnic group is not the only one in power here.

However, we, the Bai Miao, are the only ones most willing to contact you, the Chu people. Other ethnic groups are more or less hostile to you. If you are unfortunate enough to meet the Black Miao, remember to run for your life as soon as possible.

Especially those with totemic tattoos on their faces, I guarantee that their fighting style is different from anything you have encountered before."

Bai Jiujiu reminded with a playful expression.

After running all the way with Yang Qing for about half an hour, Yang Qing saw a large wooden village built on the mountainside.

Led by Bai Jiujiu, the Miao soldiers responsible for guarding the village gate did not question Yang Qing.

However, when passing through the gate of the village, Yang Qing actually saw the wanted notice for himself and Xing Hu and others.

It seems that the Liu family is quite quick and has already sent the wanted order to the Miao territory.

Even if these wanted posters are only posted on the very edge of the bulletin board.

Afterwards, Yang Qing followed Bai Jiujiu into the village. After turning several corners, they entered a four-story stilt house.

From the outside, this stilt house is one of the largest buildings in the village, and all those coming in and out are practitioners like Bai Jiujiu.

Yang Qing speculated that this building should be the "Night Tour Office" of the Miao village.

"Sister Qiu, register this guy. I met him last night while on patrol. He said he wanted to cross our Shiwan Mountains and go to the Jinguan City far to the west."

As soon as he entered the first floor of the stilt house, Bai Jiujiu couldn't wait to greet a pretty Miao girl.

Then he turned back to Yang Qing and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's a routine inspection. My Shanmen Village is the gateway to the east of Miao Territory. You Chu people will definitely be questioned when you enter my Miao Territory. Just answer whatever she asks.

I'll go over there to report my errands, and then I'll come over to take you to the witch doctor Apa."

As she spoke, a sly smile flashed across Bai Jiujiu's eyes, and she then gestured to the Miao girl named Aqiu, who nodded imperceptibly.

"Hello, brother. What's your name?"

The little girl stood up from behind the registration desk and greeted Yang Qing enthusiastically.

Her voice is sweet, just like the girl next door.

As soon as the girl spoke, Yang Qing sensed something was wrong, and at the same time a sense of clarity surged in his consciousness.

It turned out that while the girl was speaking, the Taoist meditation mantra that she had once comprehended was actually activated.

This Taoist mantra for purifying the mind is specifically designed to protect the mind, and is equivalent to putting a layer of golden light mantra between one's own consciousness.

But at this moment, he was activated by the girl's words. It seems that the girl in front of him named Aqiu is not as simple as she seems.

Yang Qing responded as if nothing had happened, and found that although the girl had a sweet voice and was pretty, there was always a hint of charm in her voice.

It's as if he wants people to unconsciously speak out their true feelings.

However, with the help of the meditation mantra, Yang Qing's eyes were still clear and he was not affected by the girl's words at all.

Afterwards, with the questions and answers between Miss Qiu and Yang Qing, the registration was completed in a short while.

According to the record in the book, Yang Qing was still called Long Congyun, a native of Xunyang Prefecture, who went to Jinguan City in Shu Kingdom to fulfill the instructions of a predecessor.

As for more specific information, no matter how the girl named Qiu acted coquettishly or used her charm, she couldn't get any information out of her.

After finishing the questioning, Yang Qing waited on the side. After a while, Bai Jiujiu returned and curiously came up to ask Miss Qiu.

Bai Jiujiu is very aware of the charm of the girl in front of her. Although this girl looks innocent and cute, if you are not careful, you will be bewitched by her and will tell all the truth.

There are still more than a dozen young men in the village who are bewitched to death by her.

Seeing Bai Jiujiu's eyes, the girl named Qiu shook her head and whispered, "It should be fine. I have asked everything I should ask. The origin is clear and the purpose is also clear. We just want to pass through here.

He doesn't look very old, so he shouldn't be the Chu person.

But I always feel that this guy is immune to my charm. Either he has practiced a very strong mental immunity technique, or he has a very pure mind, or a pure heart, and is not disturbed by my charm."

Bai Jiujiu scratched his head when he heard this and said, "This kid looks no more than 20 years old, so he probably can't practice any mental defense techniques.

That thing can't be mastered overnight.

Since there is no problem, I will take him to the Apa witch doctor to check his arm."

Upon hearing this, Miss Qiu waved her hand and chased Bai Jiujiu away like a fly.

Then Bai Jiujiu took Yang Qing away and went to the Apa witch doctor he mentioned.

When they arrived at the Apa witch doctor's place, Bai Jiujiu explained their purpose. The Miao witch doctor then directly asked Yang Qing to show his corroded wounds.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!

It was obvious that the wound had been attacked by a highly corrosive liquid, and after it was separated from the body, it could prevent the host's wound from healing.

Hey! Have you been swallowed by some evil spirit?

This wound doesn't look like the mark caused by an ordinary evil spirit. Please tell me in detail the appearance of that evil spirit."

The Apa witch doctor observed Yang Qing's wound and marveled at it.

Yang Qing then told the witch doctor Apa about the characteristics of the large jade bone flower as if it were an evil spirit.

“It’s actually a plant-based evil spirit!

There are indeed many kinds of evil spirits. I have never heard of this evil spirit you mentioned. But even though I have never seen it, I still want to challenge it."

As witch doctor Apa was speaking, a narrow knife suddenly popped out from between his two fingers, and with one stroke, he cut off a small piece of flesh from Yang Qing's wound.

“Tsk, tsk.

"Stranger, I'll give you three thousand taels of silver. Come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to get the antidote."

Then, without saying hello to Yang Qing and the others, he went into the inner room and started studying Yang Qing's piece of meat.

“Haha, your wound is a bit special, it will take some time to study it.

But don't worry, Apa witch doctor's medical skills are guaranteed. He said that he can produce an antidote the day after tomorrow, so there will definitely be results the day after tomorrow.

Just leave the medical fee there, and I'll take you to see the gathering place of you Chu people here later.

There may be a caravan heading deep into Miao territory in the next few days, and you can go with them then."

As she spoke, Bai Jiujiu pointed to the medical fee box beside her and motioned Yang Qing to take out the money.

Three thousand taels! Yang Qing felt a little painful at this moment.

Although Yang Qing is not short of money now, and he also found seven or eight thousand taels of silver notes from Zong Gu Lianshan's storage bag.

But Yang Qing still felt reluctant to spend so much money on medical treatment at once.

Maybe because he was afraid of being poor before, the way Yang Qing looked at Bai Jiujiu at this moment seemed like she was taking kickbacks.

No wonder this guy was so enthusiastic and took the initiative to help me contact a doctor.

Could it be that this guy is actually a medical fraud from another world?

Bai Jiujiu, who was standing aside with a passionate look on her face, had no idea that her image had been labeled as a black intermediary by Yang Qing.
