（25）

By this time the sun was approaching noon. The two of them immediately thought that once this immortal forest passed noon, the outer misty forest would be filled with fog from time to time, so they hurriedly bid farewell to the realm immortal and walked out.

Zhao Lingwei had been here last time, so she walked in front to lead the way. Yu Wenlei followed, moving and looking around.

This fairy forest is very different from the misty forest outside, most of them are thousand-year-old plum trees, peach trees, and occasionally locust trees. Each one is old and thick, the branches are coiled, the green leaves are like a cover, the breeze is blowing, and the fairy demeanor of a crane hair and a childish face is like a very illusory and realm immortal Weng deity.

Right now, it's not the plum blossom festival outside, but the fairy forest is full of flowers. Every three or five trees are in full bloom, like smoke on the horizon, and occasionally a few white plums, as white as snow. Zhao Lingwei passed by the plum tree, and her clothes fluttered, which could bring up a wisp of dark incense, which was enough to make him intoxicated for a while.

"This immortal trail forest is indeed a place for immortals!" Yu Wenlei couldn't help but admire.

"yes, that's why it's hard for mortals to find here. First of all, not to mention that its location is little known in the middle of this deep mountain and great river, just by relying on the misty forest outside, it is estimated that it will block the vast majority of visitors. Hearing Yu Wenlei's praise, Zhao Lingwei said as she walked in front.

So saying, the two came to a stout locust tree. Zhao Lingwei pointed to the locust tree and said, "Let's go, the exit has arrived." After that, she went around to the back of the tree, pulled away the dead branches, and revealed a hole, and Zhao Lingwei didn't want to lean over and get in.

Yu Wenlei was surprised, it seems that it is difficult to enter this immortal forest, and it is not easy to get out. I didn't expect the exit to be in a tree hole. He saw that Zhao Lingwei hadn't moved for a long time after entering, so he also learned to drill into the hole.

As soon as he entered the hollow of the tree, he was in another dense forest. Yu Wenlei was shocked and said, "Where is this?" After he saw it clearly, he felt that the scene in front of him was quite familiar, and guessed and said, "Could it be that this is the Forest of Mist?"

Zhao Lingwei stood close to her and said with a smile: "Yes, this is a forest of mist that has not yet fogged up. You look at the back. ”

Yu Wenlei turned around and looked back, where was the shadow of the old locust tree, and there was no trace of the fairy trace forest. It is surrounded by lush greenery, dense and tall trees, and there is not half a plum tree, half a plum blossom.

He scratched his head and said, "If it weren't for seeing with my own eyes that your Hidden Moon Aya had been repaired, I would have suspected that it was all a dream before." ”

"Let's go, if we don't hurry in time, we will be trapped in this forest and fog together. Zhao Lingwei said as she jumped forward. Yu Wenlei put away his thoughts and followed closely.

The two of them galloped side by side, and Zhao Lingwei said as she walked: "I have heard Master and his old man say that this Immortal Forest may itself be a part of the Trial Illusion Realm, and the other possibility is that the Illusion Immortal Weng used an enchantment to isolate it in this misty forest, making it form a unique location and hide deep in it.

Master doesn't know exactly what kind of situation it is, everything is just speculation. Oh, by the way, what you just said reminded me, take a quick look at the Seven Star Sword, whether the Ice Coffin Technique is still there. Immortal Weng once said that your true qi has not yet broken through the first layer, and the ice coffin technique can only be used temporarily in the trial illusion realm, I wonder if it is true?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenlei brushed it, landed on a branch that stretched out, stretched out his hand to draw his sword, and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, the sapphire was the same as before, and it dimmed again. Then he shook his head and said, "Grandpa Realm Immortal Weng didn't lie to me, the sapphire has returned to normal, and the ice coffin technique cannot be used. It seems that it must be after my True Qi has broken through the first layer before I can use this technique permanently. But that's fine, knowing the ability of this technique in advance, and the cultivation will have momentum. ”

With that, with a "click", the long sword was sheathed. He jumped forward.

Zhao Lingwei nodded and said: "What Brother Lei said is very true, it seems that this cultivation must be done step by step, and it is not desirable to rush for quick success." I wish you the best of luck to break through the first floor as soon as possible, and then I will celebrate you in the largest restaurant in Anping City. ”

Yu Wenlei smiled slightly and did not answer. He thought in his heart that he only hoped to end this tricky matter immediately, and then find Uncle Chu as soon as possible and go to Chongyang to learn from him.

It's just that I don't know how Uncle Chu handled what he did. The others were in Anping City, or went to Fenglai Town. From this point of view, it is not necessarily a bad thing to go to Fenglai Town with Miss Zhao, and maybe you will gain something.

Finally, the two of them walked through the misty forest without stopping, and came to the acacia tree again. The two rested under the tree for a while and ate some dry food. Yu Wenlei opened his mouth and asked, "Miss Zhao, do we still have to go back to Anping City and then go to Fenglai Town?"

Zhao Lingwei was hungry, she tried her best to swallow the last piece of dry food, stood up, took the kettle, took a sip of "goo-goo-go You see, it's afternoon, and we just have to keep the sun on our right hand side, so we can keep moving forward. After crossing the mountain beam in front, there is a tributary of the Tuozi River. There we can stop the boat, and then we can take the boat directly to Fenglai Town. This will save a lot of time. ”

Looking at the direction of Zhao Lingwei's finger, Yu Wenlei thought in his heart, it seems that this Miss Zhao is walking around a lot, and she really knows the situation around here. It's good that with her living map, she saves a lot of money and wastes time.

After speaking, the two looked at the direction and hurriedly left. Yu Wenlei and Zhao Lingwei have their own concerns at this time, and this road is naturally like walking like chasing the wind with electricity and catching the moon with meteors, and they will not stop for a moment.

When the two of them arrived at the Tuozi River, they both stood on the bank. Looking at the passing boat, Zhao Lingwei didn't say much, as soon as she shook the moon silk, the long silk brush stretched out a few feet away, directly entangled a canopy boat in the middle of the river. Zhao Lingwei used her strength in her hand and slowly pulled it to the shore. When the captain saw Zhao Lingwei exerting his magical powers, he thought that he had encountered a robbing bandit, so he knelt down on the bow of the boat in fright, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and shouted in his mouth, "The king spares his life!"

Zhao Lingwei jumped onto the boat and reprimanded in a coquettish voice: "See clearly, which is the king, send us to Fenglai Town, this is yours." So saying, he took an extra ingot of silver in his hand and threw it on the plank.

Yu Wenlei shook his head, smiled bitterly, and had to jump onto the boat.

How could the captain have ever seen such a large ingot of silver, and it was more than enough to buy him ten of these awning boats. He immediately smiled, and quickly picked up the silver and carried it in his arms. Then he hurriedly let the two of them into the tent, turned the bow of the boat, and rowed towards Fenglai Town.

The two of them sat in the cabin, and Zhao Lingwei said with a smile: "This first thing to repair the Hidden Moon Aya is considered to be a complete conclusion, and the second thing is that we will go to Fenglai Town to find out what kind of goods have been transported to Anping City." I wonder if you have a plan in mind?"

Yu Wenlei lowered his head and muttered for a long time before he spoke: "I heard you say the day before yesterday that there seems to be a maid named Qiuyue in Anping Mansion, and she is from Zhangqiao Village, Fenglai Town. We might as well go to her house first to find out if we can find any clues, and then go to Fenglai Town to see if there are any clues, I don't know what you think?"

Zhao Lingwei said with a smile: "This arrangement is very good, I'll go and ask the captain first, how to get from here to Zhangqiao Village." With that, she stood up, lifted the curtain, and went out.

Yu Wenlei sat alone in the cabin, and when he had nothing to do, he looked out through the gap in the bamboo piece.

Coincidentally, I saw a small boat coming from the left front on the river. Yu Wenlei looked closely, the boat had a very deep draft, and there was a captain at the bow and stern, rowing desperately. Strangely, there was no one else standing on the side of the ship. Yu Wenlei thought to himself, could it be that all the guest officers were crowded in the cabin?

Just thinking about it, at the moment when the two ships were wrong, Yu Wenlei saw a thick black object slightly exposed from the cabin. "What could it be, that the draft is so deep?" Yu Wenlei said strangely.

At this moment, the curtain moved, and Zhao Lingwei came in. She said with a smile: "Our luck is really good, the captain said that this Zhangqiao Village is downstream of Fenglai Town, and there are more than ten miles of road. All we have to do is hurry forward, and he will bring us there. ”

Yu Wenlei nodded, and then asked, "Did you ask him by the way, did he have any strange things on his ship that were transported to Anping City recently?"

Zhao Lingwei curled her lips and said, "Of course I asked, and he said that he had never seen anything strange, nothing more than the shipment of fish, rice and live people. Actually, I've thought about this for a long time, and the last time I came here, I asked a lot of captains, but they all said no. ”

Yu Wenlei muttered: "This is strange, you have asked so many people before, and they all said no." Could it be that the captains who transported those rare goods were all from other places, or could the servants of your Anping Mansion disguise themselves?"

Zhao Lingwei sat down cross-legged and said, "If it is said that the subordinates of Anping Mansion are dressed in disguise, I think it should be impossible." Last time, I checked on the docks of Fenglai Town for a few days, and I didn't see a single person from Anping Mansion. ”

Yu Wenlei thought in his heart, if you go there with a big lama, even if there are people from your Anping Mansion, they will already hide far away, how can you find out.

Zhao Lingwei didn't know what Yu Wenlei was thinking, and continued: "If it is said that the captain is transferred from outside, I think it is very likely. This Anping city was originally a land of fish and rice, with rivers crisscrossing vertically and horizontally, a dense water network, and almost every household has a boat. Therefore, it should not be difficult to transfer a few ships from other towns in Anping City to use the strength of Anping Mansion. ”

After listening to Zhao Lingwei's story, Yu Wenlei suddenly felt that there was a thought lingering in his heart, but he couldn't remember what the problem was for a while. He rubbed his temples with his hand and sighed, "What is wrong?"

Zhao Lingwei saw that he was suddenly different, and asked with concern: "Brother Lei, what's wrong with you, is there anything uncomfortable?"

Yu Wenlei shook his head and said, "I'm fine." What you said just now made me seem to remember something, but for a moment I couldn't remember what it was. However, it is certain that it should be related to Anping Mansion. ”

Zhao Lingweiqi said: "Did I mention Anping Mansion just now, I just said that Anping Mansion can mobilize ships from other places to come to this Fenglai Town." ”

Yu Wenlei closed his eyes and tried to recall what Zhao Lingwei said just now, but he still didn't get anything. "Where the hell is it, what did Miss Zhao say just now that I caught a clue?" he whispered.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Lingwei persuaded softly: "Brother Lei, forget it if you can't think of it." You can rest for a while, and then we will make plans when we get to Zhangqiao Village. ”

Yu Wenlei had no other choice but to stop thinking for the time being, and use his exercises to breathe to pass the time. When Zhao Lingwei saw him like this, she didn't bother anymore and sat up herself.

After a long time, the captain shouted outside: "Two, Zhangqiao Village has arrived." ”

The two of them slowly opened their eyes at the same time, and they both felt refreshed and full of energy. So they smiled at each other and walked out of the cabin.

When the captain saw the two of them coming out, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "The two of you go ashore from here, and through the field in front, it is Zhangqiao Village." Looking at this day, I don't know if the two of them have rushed back to Fenglai Town. If I go back today, I'll wait here for the two of you, what do you think?"
