"you……"

Ke Wu was so angry at the woman's inconsistency that he was speechless, but there was nothing he could do about it. They were all from the same tribe, and he couldn't force her to wear her hair in a bun.

The comb that was supposed to be used to comb Ke Su's hair fell on the red blanket on the floor and no one paid attention to it.

The woman refused to get close to Ke Su, but someone had to tie her hair up for her.

When everything around was quiet, Jiang Jingmo stood up, and Ke Su saw her frosty face in the bronze mirror.

She walked up to the comb and crushed it with one foot.

"Ke Su, don't use a comb that has been used by someone who goes back on his word like this to comb your hair."

Ke Su was stunned when she heard that, and the anger in her heart immediately dissipated. She turned to look at Jiang Jingmo.

The latter had already come in front of the woman. Although she was young, she was taller and had a more imposing manner than the woman.

"Are you afraid of the Xuanyin Gu?" Jiang Jingmo asked with a smile.

The woman nodded. She looked at the young girl in front of her. In addition, Jiang Jingmo was a foreigner, so she felt dissatisfied for a moment.

"Of course, you, an outsider, don't know how terrible the Xuanyin Gu is."

"Well, then, can you tell me how terrible it is?"

The smile on Jiang Jingmo's face deepened.

"This Xuanyin Gu is extremely evil. Once infected, it will turn into a monster that only attacks people. At that time, our entire clan was almost killed... Forget it, there is no point in telling you. You will not understand how terrifying this thing is."

The woman stopped talking and looked at Ke Su with fear in her eyes.

"The whole clan was almost in danger of not being saved... If it was so terrible, how did you deal with it afterwards?"

"Of course, the solution is to let Yin suppress Xuan..."

The woman's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she was silent.

She seemed to suddenly realize something.

"The Yin girl suppressed the Xuanyin Gu to keep your entire clan safe, right?"

Seeing this, Jiang Jingmo kept the smile on his face, but the coldness in his eyes became deeper.

"So the hero who protected your entire clan is going to be treated like this at her coming-of-age ceremony?"

The woman was speechless and stood there feeling a little embarrassed.

"If you don't want to do this, you can just refuse us earlier, but when Wu brought you the spirit stone a few days ago, you agreed."

An Huai also sat in a chair and spoke lightly. The woman's words and actions just now had already made him feel a little disgusted.

If it weren't for the Yin women who continuously dedicated their lives generation after generation, there would be no ancient Yin clan today.

Now Ke Su is holding a coming-of-age ceremony here, which is an extremely important day for a girl, but what this woman has done is far from respectful.

The woman's face turned pale and blue, and everyone looked at her with contempt. She shrank her neck, said no more, and left the place in shame.

Jiang Jingmo was still standing there, her eyes sweeping over the tribesmen around her one by one.

The woman's behavior is disgusting, but there are many people who hold the same idea as her. The tribesmen who come to this forbidden area have all received the tribe leader's spirit stone.

Two thousand years have passed, and the fear of Xuanyin Gu Gu is still buried in their hearts, but the respect for Yin women has long been exhausted.

To this day, they can even call monsters those who have dedicated their lives to keeping them safe.

Stupid and pathetic.

Jiang Jingmo picked up another comb. This comb was carved with a lifelike bird. It was about to spread its wings and fly, with its head raised towards the sun.

It is freedom and new life.

"Do you mind if I comb your hair?"

Jiang Jingmo raised his eyebrows and looked at the beautiful girl in the bronze mirror, and Ke Su curled his lips and smiled.

"Of course I don't mind."

"Well, after I finish combing your hair, I will really become your elder."

“…I do mind that.”

Jiang Jingmo had already inserted the comb into her hair. Hearing this, he did not stop and started combing her hair.

"late."

"..."

In the dark, Ke Wen looked at the girl combing Ke Su's hair and couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity.

But no matter what, he was grateful to her at this moment.

The clan leader stood by without saying a word. She watched Jiang Jingmo slowly tie Ke Su's white hair into a beautiful bun, and watched Ke Wu hand over the warm jade hairpin.

As the hairpin was inserted into her bun, her beautiful granddaughter reached the age of 15.

The clan leader felt somewhat relieved and she smiled gently.

very nice.

"It is said that the person who has his hair tied up for the coming-of-age ceremony should be a very blessed person, and can bring blessings to the girl who has come of age. Unfortunately, I am not a blessed person, so I may not be able to bring you any blessings."

Jiang Jingmo said with a smile, his hands not stopping, carefully adjusting her hair bun.

"Being able to leave here is already the greatest blessing."

Ke Su looked at herself in the mirror and curled her lips. If coming of age represents freedom, she now has the greatest blessing.

"Good fortune, you should keep it for yourself."

Jiang Jingmo agreed with a smile.

When Ke Su turned around, she saw Ke Wu who was crying uncontrollably, his tears streaming down his face. An Huai helplessly handed him a handkerchief.

"This is a good thing, why are you crying?"

"I know, woooo, I'm just woooo happy woooo..."

Ke Wu was wiping his tears with An Huai's handkerchief. When he saw Ke Su looking at him, he grinned at her again.

Ke Su looked at him with some complexity. After a long time, she also smiled at Ke Wu.

Ke Wu just stood there in a daze.

"Did you see...Shu'er smiled at me..."

An Huai nodded with a gentle smile on his face.

"I saw it."

Ke Wu was so overjoyed that he grabbed An Huai's shoulders and shook him hard.

"Really!!! You she really smiled at me!!!"

An Huai's body was shaken by him. He was not in good health to begin with, and he even felt a little dizzy for a while.

An Yang quickly noticed An Huai's abnormality. She widened her eyes and quickly ran over to stop Ke Wu.

"Uncle Ke Wu, stop shaking! If you keep shaking Uncle An, he'll faint!"

"Huh? Oh oh oh..."

Ke Wu quickly let go of his hand and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Sorry, Ah Huai, I forgot."

An Huai rubbed his head with one hand and gently waved at him with the other, with a helpless expression on his face.

"fine……"

Seeing this scene, Ke Su, who was sitting in front of the desk, couldn't help laughing, but as she laughed, a sense of emptiness welled up in her heart.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Jingmo turned and looked at her.

"Nothing, I just feel like everything in front of me is like a dream."

Ke Su looked at the cheerful and lively scene in front of her, looked at her hair tied into a bun, and looked at Jiang Jingmo beside her. She always felt that all this was as unreal as a dream.

She was very scared. She thought it was really a dream. When she woke up, she was still in that dark and enclosed room, without seeing the sun.
