Mu Lanxiang nodded: "But this matter has also spread all over the rivers and lakes, and the paper can't contain the fire, in fact, in fact, I think that Uncle Ziguang is not so old, he is still very polite to Senior Lin, if you really take the path of proposing marriage at that time, I think Uncle Ziguang will most likely agree." ”

Qu Caifeng's mouth flashed pears: "Silly sister, the marriage between your famous and decent families, especially the marriage of a disciple like Lin Zong, is not so simple, in my opinion, even if there is no battle of Luoyue Gorge, Ziguang will definitely let Lin Zong marry you, as a means to consolidate Lin Zong's Wudang head disciple, no matter how bad it is, it will also let Lin Zong marry a woman like Lin Yaoxian and Yang Qionghua, or a woman like Yue Lingjiao, marry with other sects, and take 10,000 steps back, Lin Zong's father will not let Lin Zong marry a reckless person." ”

Mu Lanxiang thought that he had embarked on the road of fake marriage with Xu Linzong many years later in order to stabilize the affairs of Wudang, and knew that as a decent disciple, he rarely had the freedom to choose his love, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Qu Caifeng continued: "Sister Mu, in fact, I was thinking just now, when I knew that Lin Zong was with you, I would be so angry that I would go crazy, but I knew that Cangxing's heart always remembered you, but I couldn't get angry, I used to be very strange to this myself, and now when I hear you say this, I can completely understand that Cangxing is a special person who appeared in a special period for me, above friendship, lovers are not full, I have him in my heart because I am insecure and emotionally hurt, That's why I hope he can always protect me and guard me, but even so. I also often quarrel with him and lose my temper. From time to time, he would call his son to leave, but he never chased me. If Lin Zong was replaced, he would definitely follow. ”

Mu Lanxiang hooked the corners of his mouth: "Yes, if I go, the senior brother will catch up with him, he, he may indeed be as he said to me, maybe, he may not have your sister in his heart." ”

Qu Caifeng smiled miserably: "Because he only has you in his heart, sister." Do you know, Li Cangxing was seriously injured, almost dying, and when he fell into a coma, he also read you in his mouth, such an affectionate and dedicated man, I have never met it in my life, although Lin Zong only has me in his heart, he can put Wudang above me. And Li Cangxing, he can give up a qiē for you. ”

Mu Lanxiang's heart was as sweet as eating honey, and his brows unconsciously stretched, and he thought of Li Cangxing all these years and thought that he had abandoned him. After betraying love, he still tortured himself like this, and his heart hurt so much. Tears were on her beautiful long eyelashes, almost dripping down.

Qu Caifeng gently brushed away Mu Lanxiang's two tears. smiled: "Okay, okay, that's all there to say." Crying and laughing, like a crazy girl, but thank you so much, telling me these things, can make me think clearly, think clearly, Cangxing is really inappropriate for me, I think even if we are reluctant to be together, the final personality is not compatible, I am too strong, he will not let me, even if he is willing to want me, I am afraid that it will end in tragedy, I have never been able to let go of Lin Zong in my heart, and he is a vinegar jar, he will definitely quarrel over these things, and finally break up unhappily. ”

Mu Lanxiang was speechless, and could only sigh softly, although Qu Caifeng gave up Li Cangxing personally, but it stands to reason that as a winner, she has no joy at all, and the taste of melancholy is all in the words.

Qu Caifeng let out a sigh of relief and said: "I owe Cangxing a favor in my life, and I can only try my best to help him avenge him as a repayment, but I owe Lin Zong's love, but I can't drag it on forever, sister, after this Yunnan incident, I will go to Wudang and explain to Lin Zong, as for whether he is willing to accept me, I can only resign myself to fate." ”

Mu Lanxiang said excitedly: "Believe me, Sister Qu, it will be, it will be." ”

Li Cangxing heard this in the next room, closed his eyes, and muttered to himself: "Caifeng, you will definitely find your own happiness." ”

Dali, Yunnan, Rolling Dragon Village.

This is a cottage located on Diancang Mountain, leaning on Erhai Lake, and a winding path that can only accommodate two or three horses walking side by side under the mountain is the famous Ancient Tea Horse Road.

The Ancient Tea Horse Road originated from the "Tea and Horse Market" in the Tang and Song dynasties. Because Tibet bordering Yunnan is a cold region, with an altitude of more than three or four thousand meters, tsamba, milk, ghee, beef and mutton are the staple foods of the Tibetan people. In the alpine region, it is necessary to consume high-calorie fat, but there are no vegetables, the glutinous rice is hot and dry, and the excess fat is not easy to decompose in the human body, so the life expectancy of Tibetans is often very short, and those who live beyond 50 are considered to be long-lived.

Tea can not only decompose fat, but also prevent dryness, so Tibetans in their long-term life, created a plateau living habit of drinking butter tea, but Tibetan areas do not produce tea. In the interior, a large number of mules and horses were needed for civil servants and military campaigns, but the supply exceeded the supply.

Tibetan areas and the border areas of Sichuan and Yunnan produce good horses, so the complementary trade of tea and horses, that is, the "tea and horse market", came into being. In this way, mules, horses, furs, and medicinal herbs produced in Tibetan areas and the border areas of Sichuan and Yunnan, as well as tea, cloth, salt, and daily utensils produced in Sichuan, Yunnan, and the hinterland, flow from south to north in the high mountains and deep valleys of the Hengduan Mountains, and become increasingly prosperous with the development of social economy, forming an "ancient tea horse road" that continues to this day.

Rolling Dragon Village is built on the edge of this ancient tea horse road, this is located in the village of Canglang Peak in more than ten peaks, behind is the endless Erhai Lake, the mountain is directly to the ancient tea horse road, the terrain is dangerous, leading to the three cottage doors on the mountain, two of which are located between the suspension bridges of the two peaks, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The high place on the mountain and several hills near the ridge have set up a beacon tower, once there is any merchant caravan on the ancient tea horse road, it will immediately light the beacon fire, report to the rolling dragon village to know, and then, the rolling dragon village will point Qi Zhai soldiers, down the mountain to block the road and rob.

Today is the thirteenth of May, and it is close to the rainy season, and there are many fewer caravans coming and going on this road, and a small team of more than ten mules and carriages is struggling to move forward on this rugged and lame mountain road, and the two horsemen at the head, one is a slender man. A well-proportioned man dressed as a man in blue, and the other one wore a black cloth wrapped around his head. Medium-height, white-clad steward who looks shrewd and capable. There are two hooked beards, and the rest of the team, mostly Tibetan and Miao foot porters, are silent, pulling mules, driving cars, and silently driving the road behind.

The white-clothed steward with a black cloth wrapped in his head looked at a flame rising from the mountain peak behind him, frowned, and rode up to the blue-clothed nobleman. Said softly: "Master, this is already the territory of Rolling Dragon Village, and the beacon tower behind is smoking, I'm afraid that those strongmen will go down the mountain to rob." ”

The blue-clothed boy smiled slightly: "I have also passed through a few villages along the way, do business, make money peacefully, as long as you give some money, you can get through guò safely." Presumably this place is no exception, so let's move on. ”

The voice did not fall. I heard a sudden sound of bangs on the mountainside in front of me, and hundreds of people wrapped their heads around their heads, with feathers stuck on them, and a few strips of cloth hanging on their bodies. The Miao man with bare arms and legs, holding a knife and a gun and a crossbow arrow. They all came out of the mountains on both sides, and their mouths let out bursts of shouting sounds. Like a mountain ape, the horses in the team neighed one after another. There was a throbbing, and the porters and strong men who were on the feet were very experienced in burrowing under the belly of the horses or under the carts, looking for the best position for cover.

The two people who had been riding horses before sat on their horses, not moving at all, and their four bright eyes looked coldly at the Miao people who were approaching them in front of them, their faces were cold, and they didn't say a word.

Headed by a Miao leader, is a strong man in his forties, compared to those Miao subordinates around him who are so thin that they can see ribs, this old man can be described as the overlord who pulls out the mountains, eight feet tall, powerful, his face is painted with colorful oil paint, a black cloth embedded with jade blocks is wrapped around his head, five or six bright feathers are inserted, and he holds a five-strand fork that looks like more than 100 catties in weight, and he carries it with one hand, as easy as lifting a dead branch, judging from the bulging muscles on his arms and the bulging green tendons, This is a top master who is completely a foreigner.

The leader of the Miao people saw that in front of the caravan under the mountain, there were actually two people riding horses, their expressions were calm, and they were not panicked at all, but they were a little surprised, frowned, and pouted at a subordinate who looked like a Han man beside him.

The Han man looked to be in his thirties, with a black complexion, wearing silk clothes, and carrying a stainless steel long sword in his hand, and stepped forward and shouted: "Hey, who is under the mountain, when you see the king of our family, don't you quickly get off the horse and bow down!" ”

The two leaders are Mu Lanxiang and Qu Caifeng, who have changed their appearance and changed their appearance, since the two broke up with Li Cangxing in Chengdu City, they hired some Miao and Tibetan porters on the spot, and purchased some Tibetan local products, such as saffron, mink, etc., formed a small caravan, along the ancient tea horse road all the way, on the way encountered a few robbery of small cottages, are either bought with money, or show a hand or two to scare away.

And those entourages are people who don't know martial arts, and they can't see their superb martial arts, but every time they are in danger, these people are hiding to save their lives, and they continue to follow after retreating from the enemy, as if nothing has happened.

It's just that this rolling dragon village is obviously much stronger than the shearing thieves who only have a dozen or even a few people in front of them, this scale of formation, this way has never been encountered, Qu Caifeng has led people to rob professionally for decades, and is naturally familiar with this routine, hearing the Han people shouting, he smiled slightly, and said: "This uncle, I am waiting to do a little business, passing through Guizhai, disturbing all the heroes, I don't know if I can raise my noble hand and let me go forward?" ”

The Han man was thin, tanned on his skin, his cheekbones protruded high, and his two triangular eyes turned straight away, and after hearing Qu Caifeng's words, he sneered: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, if you want to live from now on, stay and buy road wealth!" Boy, you should have passed some villages from this ancient tea horse road, don't you even understand this rule? ”

Qu Caifeng still had a smile on his face, and his smile became even brighter: "Well, naturally, it should be, but I don't know which hero opened this village, my master likes to make friends with the heroes of the world the most, and he should give it when he buys road money, just to make a friend." ”

The Han man was slightly stunned, there are many caravans that are usually robbed, and there are few people who are not afraid at all, and want to make friends with robbers, he was about to speak, but the Miao bandit leader on the side stretched out his hand to stop him, and spoke fluent Chinese: "The two of you are really a little bold, this village is called Kouhutang, I am the owner of the pond Ma Sanping, your master wants to make friends with me, then report yourself." ”

Mu Lanxiang smiled slightly, opened a folding fan, and shook it gently and freely: "Oh, is it really the owner of the horse village?" It's just that I heard that the owner of the horse village has been crisscrossing this ancient tea horse road for fifty or sixty years, if the rumors are correct, he should be over seventy years old, and he entered the Cang School when he was a teenager, and he made a sword, not a foreign kung fu master, look at Your Excellency, how can it not be like the master of the horse village. ”

The face of the Miao bandit leader changed slightly, and the five strands of the Heavenly Fork slammed to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "You seem to have come prepared, what, do you want a strong dragon to suppress the head snake on the ground?" ”

Mu Lanxiang shook his head with a smile, and his expression was dashing: "If my expectations are good, Your Excellency should be Yang Yilong, the owner of Rolling Dragon Village." As I said just now, I hope to make friends with the owner of Yang Zhai, but the owner of the village doesn't seem to have the least sincerity in the face of us, and he refuses to even tell him by his name, which is a loss of your demeanor as a hero on the ancient tea horse road. ”

Yang Yilong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said sharply: "Are you the idea sent by the government to explore our Rolling Dragon Village?" Tell me! With his loud voice, the surrounding Miao people also danced knives and guns, shouting loudly, startling a large number of birds that had fallen on the branches just now.

Qu Caifeng said coldly: "Lord Yang Zhai, the two of us are businessmen, how can they be people from the government?" If you look at the people in the official mansion, will they only take a dozen porters and walk on this ancient tea horse road in casual clothes? ”

The black and thin man beside Yang Yilong sneered: "Hmph, you guys are clever words, you want to break into our Rolling Dragon Village, people like you, we have seen a lot, and we will never be fooled!" The owner of the village, take them down first, bring them back to the village, interrogate them carefully, and don't be afraid not to speak! (To be continued......) R1292
