Section 98: A Preliminary Exploration of Miao Jiang 3

Starting from the manor again, Lin Xiao and Chen Ziqin also resumed their Taoist robes, even Yuan Ling and Li Qing were also dressed in the same attire, the four of them according to Lin Xiao's arrangement were to go to Shennongjia Mountain and visit the relics of the ancient sages, while Changmei needed to act alone, first explore the Miao Village in the mountainous area of Xiangxi, and check the news explained by the three witch masters who were afraid of death.

However, out of consideration for the safety of Changmei, it is more as a senior uncle, Lin Xiao is embarrassed to pull out a dime, so Lin Xiao still gave Changmei three large shifting array talismans that can ignore the formation space and various blockade and transfer spells, at this time, Lin Xiao's big shifting array talisman can be more sophisticated than the one made in the Purple Cloud Palace and the Great Wilderness Mountain, as long as one, you can become your own shifting formation, and move the target to any place designated by the owner of the trigger formation within 100 miles to 100,000 miles, which is not divided between himself and the enemy, it is really life-saving but the enemy, a must-have good thing for home travel.

Of course, although Changmei is the vanguard of this trip, it is Lin Xiao who is the leader, so the formation for Changmei is still set to move to Lin Xiao's side, so that it is more convenient for Lin Xiao to understand what happened to Changmei in time.

In fact, Changmei also has his own ideas, but in the flying sword biography that his master replied to Changmei, he not only affirmed Lin Xiao's identity, but also instructed Changmei to take the lead of his uncle and obey Lin Xiao's arrangement.

When Lin Xiao came to the Purple Cloud Palace as a guest, he sat for many years, and when he left, many disciples of the Purple Cloud Palace were reluctant to give up on Lin Xiao, and later when the Jin Mu told Lianshan, they were all embarrassed, which made Lianshan feel ashamed: The disciples of the Purple Cloud Palace have never had such feelings for themselves. But no matter what, when Lianshan later gathered with Yu Sanzi and Taiyuan Sanren, he often talked about Lin Xiao's affinity - that is, it was at that meeting that Changmei and Deng Yin returned to the school, and Lianshan also had the idea of crossing Deng Yin into his own door again.

Not to mention that Lin Xiao took his disciples and nephews to be leisurely in the Shennongjia Mountain, but to say that Changmei rode alone into the Xiangxi Mountain.

This Xiangxi, there are many mountains and rivers, but there are few fields, and the people are fierce, although each village has its own witch master, but the Miao medicine is also very famous. Since Changmei and Lin Xiao separated, they have reverted to the dress of a foot doctor, and after walking into the mountains, they soon came to a cottage of the Miao family.

Although the Miao cottage is also divided into raw seedlings and mature seedlings by the Han people outside the mountain according to the degree of contact, it is just that there is a difference between good and bad life, the life of mature seedlings is better, closer to the Han people outside the mountain, and the life of raw seedlings is more difficult and more primitive, but regardless of raw and cooked, they are full of yearning for a better life.

For doctors, even the sorcerers and Gu masters in the cottage have the same respect, because many times, when these sorcerers and Gu masters treat the people of their villages, they also use herbs, not witchcraft or Gu magic.

Besides, there are often herbs and elixirs that are not found outside the mountains in the mountains, whether they are raw or ripe, they are no strangers to the doctors of the Han people, and there is no hostility (the hostile ones are only the official officials and officers and soldiers of the Han people outside the mountains).

Changmei is no stranger to the mountains of Xiangxi, and when he had not returned to the division earlier, Changmei had also traveled to many places, and he also established several hospitable cottage masters in the mountains of Xiangxi, and this time it can be regarded as returning to the old place.

The place where Changmei enters the mountain, is not far from the Wulingyuan mentioned in the "Peach Blossom Spring" Sangzhi, at this time it is still according to the name of the Han Empire, Tianmen County is named, the Great Sui Empire did not change the name here because of the change of dynasty. Changmei went down against the stream, after crossing a phosphorus peak, looking at it, it was a Miao family cottage built in the middle of the mountainside, when Changmei was from this cottage over the mountains and mountains, under the leadership of Miao Min, took a shortcut, out of the mountain, at this time the old place revisited, don't have a mood in the heart.

Long eyebrows revisited the old place, and when they came to the door of the cottage, they were immediately recognized - at this time, the long eyebrows were not dressed with white hair and white beard, and even the two long white eyebrows were replaced with black shapes. This is also the time that Changmei has not left this cottage for a long time, less than five years, but now Changmei has returned to the master, and with the peak Taoist mana of the immortals, it can be said that it is a world of difference from back then. It's just that the Miao family in the cottage got along well with Changmei back then, and they still remember Changmei's appearance.

The more familiar people are, the longer they have been apart, the more aware they are of the changes that have occurred in their friends. So don't look at Changmei just walked into the cottage, and immediately the familiar Miao family stepped forward to salute Changmei, and the affection was like meeting his own brother. Of course, almost all Miao families who know Changmei will ask the same question, that is, why Brother Ren, your eyebrows have grown so long.

Hearing this question, in fact, Changmei was also very embarrassed, because after Changmei got the Ziqing Double Sword back then, a pair of eyebrows began to grow, and after meeting Shen Wujian because of the search for Deng Yin, those eyebrows had grown more than an inch, and when he met Lin Xiao, a pair of eyebrows had already hung down from his cheeks, even if he didn't have white hair and white beard, there was still a taste of fairy wind bones exposed.

The Miao family is very hospitable, Changmei revisited the old place, and after the original owner of the village and the elders in the village learned about it, they invited Changmei to participate in the bonfire party in the evening.

In the past, the Miao family only held bonfires when distinguished guests arrived or festivals in the clan, in fact, seriously, this is also the reason why the food and clothing of the ancient society were not rich enough, and every bonfire party would consume a lot of food and meat from each family in the village. And today's arrival of Changmei has made the Miao family in the village willing to organize it once, which shows that Changmei is indeed affinity and has an excellent reputation in the Miao family.

During the dinner, Changmei didn't delay things, just like the village elders asked about the witch master in the depths of Miao Jiang. Regarding the question of Changmei, the village elder didn't ask much, and directly told him some of the things he knew.

As mentioned above, the witch masters in Miao Jiang are also divided into family and teacher traditions, and in addition, they are also divided into white witches and black witches. The so-called white witch, that is, the main development direction of cultivation is to cure diseases and save people, and the combat effectiveness is generally relatively poor, and the general witchcraft handed down by the village family belongs to this category. As for the black witch, it is generally a type of wizard who has a stronger grasp of the means of killing, generally speaking, this kind of wizard is stronger, more murderous, and solving things is also decided by the size of the fist. In this latter category, most of the witchcraft passed down by the master belong to the black witch.

Originally, the black witch and the white witch were the main force of the Miao family's protection, but the ability is great, not everyone is the same, most of the black witches will often grab more and greater power, so they caused great damage to the Miao family, and were finally expelled from the cottage by the Miao family and the white witch inheritance. This also caused the two veins to be incompatible.

However, although the white witch has been based on the Tao of medicine, it is not that it is not the way of conquest, but it is much weaker than the black witch, so it has caused many Miao cottages to be more than defended, and the lack of progress, that is, as time goes by, the Miao family's power is more and more retreating into the mountains.

The contradiction between the black and white wizards is very serious, and there is almost no room for relaxation, even if some black wizards do not have such a great desire for power, they have to use the appearance of the white witch to cover up one or two. Therefore, the white witch of the Miao family is still very clear about the movements of the black witches inherited by the sect.

Having said that, the white witch and the black witch are the two veins of the Miao family wizard after all, and the village elder should not have said anything to Changmei, a Han person outside the mountain, but anyway, Changmei had grace and the cottage back then, and he also won the trust of many elders in the cottage (Changmei used his relationship to help the Miao family of the cottage win a lawsuit), and it was this time that Changmei explained the problem that Lin Xiao found.

The Miao family has been reluctant to get involved in the affairs of the Central Plains Dynasty since Yu Xia, even so, what witch Gu cases happened to the royal family of the Central Plains Dynasty in history, although it has nothing to do with the Miao family, but it is the same "fire at the city gate, affecting the fish pond", and the Miao family also suffered heavy losses because of the unwarranted disaster. Therefore, Changmei said that he found the activities of wizards in Miao Jiang in the Central Plains, which almost caused heavy losses to the imperial army, and if these elders can still sit still, then it is called a problem.

The most important thing is that Changmei said that this matter has not been reported to the center of the imperial court now, so there is a chance to find the person who is really causing trouble and eliminate it at the beginning, so as to save the court from being angry and wantonly conquer Miaojiang, and it will not be a village that will be unlucky at that time.

When these village elders were young, they had never seen the scene of the Central Plains Dynasty's army raging? When only one of the partial divisions of the Great Sui Empire was fighting for the imperial power of the Southern Han Empire, the city wall that had passed outside the mountain and was very strong in the eyes of the Miao family changed hands in just one day, and this kind of conquest of the elite army left a deep impression on the Miao family! Of course, what worries the elders of the cottage the most is not this, but the strength of the troops, the strength of the Great Sui Empire's partial division is only 100,000, but how many troops are there in the whole country of the Great Sui Empire? There are no less than 10 million people! This is not something that one or two Miao Zhai can resist.

To sum it up, the elders of the cottage only told the news of the dark wizards they knew, and said something ugly, that is, "Dead friends are not dead and poor", as long as this matter is solved before it is possible to implicate their own cottage, it is the best.

Changmei easily got the news of the black wizard of Miaojiang, and found that the most recent activities belonged to the disciple of a very famous wizard in Miaojiang, the silkworm Niangniang. However, this Silkworm Niangniang is not the name of a wizard, but the name of the head of this wizard sect, and each generation of disciples takes over as the leader of the sect, and the name is changed to Silkworm Niangniang.
