Xiaomei angrily looked at Tang Qi: "why don't you let me call dad! How dare Daisy do this to me? She and I are sisters

"How old are you two?" Tang Qi felt that they should be the same age, so he was curious.

"Seven months." Xiaomei said simply. Tang Qi's face slightly changed, what kind of maternal can not produce two age difference so close sister ah! Xiaomei also finds something wrong and reluctantly smiles at Tang Qi: "in fact, she and I are not my father's own flesh and blood. We are selected from the village

Tang Qi didn't quite understand. Xiaomei explained to Tang Qi that there was a rule in the village in Myanmar. When the girls were of the right age, they would choose a very lovely beauty to inherit the gem warehouse of the whole village.

Tang Qihao said strangely, "as soon as you hear the name, you know there are many good things in it. How many things? " Xiaomei said with a smile: "in fact, there is nothing. This gem warehouse is a gathering place of important cultural relics in the village. But because of many wars, all the things inside were taken away, and now there is only one mask left. This mask is a totem of our village. It's called the snake mask. "

Tang Qi nodded. He had heard about this mask in classical books. It is a very precious cultural relic. It is said that it was handed down from the Tang Dynasty. It has been made of bronze for thousands of years. There are many gems inlaid on it, which are dazzling and of great value. It is said that a general of the Tang Dynasty fought abroad and put all the gems on the mask. Not only the value of gems, but also the historical value of this cultural relic, the mask is still beautiful There are some documents, which have a great role in the study of the Tang Dynasty's foreign wars. And the most important thing is that there is a snake on the mask, which hovers in the upper part and twists and turns. There are two top green Jadeites on the two eyes. It's soul stirring to let people see it, and the memory is very skillful. Countless people flocked to this mask, but decades ago, the

mask suddenly disappeared. But I went to a village in Myanmar. No wonder people in the domestic antique industry didn't hear any news. Xiaomei said: "now, although it is said that the period of the gem warehouse is different, it is actually for the sake of the inheritance of the mask, because they say that the mask has gone through the battlefield and has been stained with a lot of blood, so there are ghosts on it, and often bad things happen

in order to pray, every ten years, an unmarried girl has to hold it Wearing masks, kneeling down to the west, and carrying out a series of rituals, we can avoid disaster. "

Tang Qi probably understood that Xiaomei and Xiaoju were all chosen by the chief to protect the girl with the mask.

"Originally, Xiaoju wanted to do such a thing, but my father said that my birthday was more suitable, so he decided to let me take over the mask. In fact, there were eight girls selected at the beginning, but now we are the only two left."

"I don't know where those girls are now," Tang said

Xiaomei hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't know. Maybe she's dead! I think if I didn't misunderstand Xiaoju, those people should have been given by her... " She couldn't go on, choking. It turns out that her father chose these girls, and then looked at their birthdays, as well as their looks and blood. Since it was a sacrifice for masks, of course, it took the best and the best girls to get them. A total of eight girls met the requirements, but after several years, accidents began to happen. Especially this year is the time. With the mask coming out of the warehouse again, some of these girls accidentally fell off the cliff when they were walking, some of them ate poisonous food and died suddenly, and one night when they met with hooligans who were insulted, they immediately hanged.

Tang Qi said: "with the same way you deal with it?" "Yes, that girl has the best conditions. It's said that the eight characters of her birthday are the most suitable. When she died, my father was sad for a long time. I didn't expect that she would do it!" Xiaomei wiped her tears and was very sad. Because this matter has been spread out, there are some bad rumors in the village, saying that there are a lot of evil spirits on the mask, and if anyone can be infected, he will die without a burial place. "Originally, the mask could be kept in the warehouse after ten years, or it could be directly owned by the sacrificial girl for ten years. It was extremely easy, but now that so many candidates have had an accident, how dare you have any idea? They all refused. It's God's will. It can't be done. "

Tang Qi said, "it's not the will of heaven, but it's man-made." "Yes, some girls just give up when they see such a dangerous situation. She doesn't want to die. Some people just go to school and leave the village. They get married and give up completely. Some people are very unconvinced and want to have a try. One girl is very angryAfter a few days of scolding, he said that he must be regarded as a sacrificial girl. As a result, he was ripped and hanged on the tree at the entrance of the village. No one would dare to say that again. "

Gradually, the right girls in the village are Xiaoju and Xiaomei.

Tang Qi frowned and said, "I want to know that besides such things, your father didn't react at all?"

"Well, he just said that God's will can't be violated. Since it's God's test, we have to bear it all the time! In fact, I didn't think it was a big deal before. I thought it was the punishment of the evil spirit on the mask. I didn't think it was man-made! " Tang Qi said, "I want to meet your father. Don't tell me that your father is not here. I don't believe it. If he is not here at other times, I can forgive him, but the man we are dealing with is Mr. Qin. How can we not be here and let two girls deal with it together? I don't think it's possible

Xiaomei hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "OK, I know. I'll take you now, but can you not..."

"Don't tell him that Xiaoju is going to deal with you?" "Yes, because I don't believe what she will do!" Xiaomei said: "although she and I are not biological sisters, we are really good to me. We have known each other for more than ten years. Growing up in a village, she once saved my life. If my father knew about it, she would be cut to pieces! I don't want her! "

Seeing the crying tears in her eyes, Tang Qi nodded: "I know. I see your father talking. But I always think that since he is so smart, he can't know the strife and strife in it. "

"You mean unable! My father didn't know, otherwise, how could he let the situation develop into such a situation and didn't do anything? He died! Those girls are all flowers, and they die in their early twenties! " Xiaomei wiped her tears and was very sad.

Tang Qi patted her on the shoulder and said, "OK, let's go."

Two people come out of the woods together. Just after passing a small stone bridge in front of them, they see Xiaoju coming here in a hurry. When they see Xiaomei and Tang Qi together, she is stunned and then looks at them in shock.

Tang Qi said, "what's the matter? You seem to be in a bad mood! "

"Little chrysanthemum said:" you come out from there? You You... " Her meaning is very clear. Tang Qi must want to ask if you have heard something. Who knows that without waiting for Tang Qi to speak, she is pulled aside by Xiaomei.

Xiaomei said with a smile: "we just walked around, because Tang Qi has never been here. All of us got lost and went to the bamboo forest there. We just found it."

Zhulin and the place where she eavesdropped on the conversation just now are two directions, so Xiaoju is relieved. After looking at her expression, it's no big deal, so Xiaoju nods: "send Tang Qi away."

"I'd like to see you, sir. I'll leave in a moment." Tang Qidao.

"My father is not here," said little chrysanthemum

"He already knows. Mr. Tang Qi said that he would not believe our father is not here. I can't say anything. There's no way. What else can we do except take him? I'll be right back. "

"Well, you go." Xiaoju watched Xiaomei go to her side, and then quickly went to the direction of the woods.

Tang Qi looked at her back and said, "guess what he did?"

"How do I know?" Xiaomei road.

"I guess she's looking for clues that we're eavesdropping on here. The woman's eyes are turning around. It looks very chaotic. If she finds something at that time, she will advance her plan. "

Xiaomei bit her lip as she walked and said, "I'd rather not have that mask than let her treat me like this. I like Xiaoju so much. She can't go on making mistakes again and again."

Tang Qi patted her on the shoulder: "let's go!"

"You must help me." Tang Qi laughs but does not speak, the heart way, what you think is quite simple! Don't you say no? If you do this, you just tell Xiaoju what happened before. She already knows what's going on. I don't want to die. If you want to take away the mask, you can do it well. I won't take part in it, but

the more this happens, the more impossible Xiaoju is to let her live.

Xiaomeiwei was aggrieved and tears fell down. Tang Qi also felt pity for her. "OK, don't cry. Your father will doubt you if you see her like this, and you won't lie. You will expose her whereabouts at that time. If you don't want to kill Xiaoju, she won't live."
