"By the way, you haven't said who you're looking for?" Xiao Bai suddenly thought of something, and said with a smug face, "Maybe I know you too?"

Zhou Bai smiled faintly, looked forward, and saw that the mountains in the distance were connected and endless, which was the unique landform here in southern Xinjiang. There is an ancient road in front of you, winding forward, and there are strange rocky hills on both sides, far or near. The distant mountain peaks in the sky are connected from afar, and the gloomy dark clouds hang on the top of the high mountain peaks, drifting with the wind.

"Maybe you really know. Zhou Bai retracted his gaze and said faintly.

Xiaobai noticed the strangeness of Zhou Bai's tone, and recalled the hidden monk here, but it was too far away, and she hadn't recalled the past of Miao Jiang for a long time, so she couldn't help but hold her forehead and sighed, "I really can't think of anyone else in the southern Xinjiang who can move you." ”

It's just that the slightly furrowed brow can't be melted away, maybe she remembers, but she doesn't dare to think about it.

"Beast God"

Zhou Bai's voice dissipated in the mist between the mountain roads, and Xiao Bai was in a trance.

The two of them walked through the forest for several days, and they never saw the person sent by the Burning Incense Valley to find Xiaobai.

Legend has it that there is a deep cave on this mountain, and the dog god worshiped by the Miao people lives in the cave. There is a narrow mountain road at the foot of this mountain, which only allows one person to walk, and when you walk in, it is Qilitong where Miao people live. Along the way, Xiaobai introduced the customs and customs here, while recalling the memories that had long been forgotten, looking at the mountains not far away, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

The two walked into the narrow mountain road one after the other, twisting and turning, and on the hard stone walls on both sides, there were abrupt rocks piercing out from time to time.

Looking around the stone wall, there are still water droplets dripping in many places, and most of them converge into a small pool. Up and down the stone walls, in the dark places, there are also a lot of green stone moss, so that the air is filled with a slightly moist and cold smell.

The two of them twisted and turned, and finally turned out of this mountain road that I don't know how many years and years have passed, and saw the light of day again.

On this day, the sun was rising, and it was quite sunny from the hazy weather of the previous days. As soon as they came out of the gloomy mountain road, under the sun, Ghost Li and Xiaobai couldn't help but squint their eyes, feeling the light from the sky, as if it was still shining on their bodies with a beautiful halo.

After a while, when the eyes got used to it, the sound of the bustling in the distance gradually arrived. Looking up, I saw that Huo Ran was cheerful in front of me, and in this area surrounded by mountains, there was a fertile, flat and open land, which appeared in front of me.

Houses with a strong Miao flavor rise from the ground, or built on the mountain, or closely connected. There is also a small clear stream that originates deep in the mountains in front of us, and meanders through this paradise-like land. Many Miao houses are built on both sides of the stream.

Seeing two faces crossing the mountain road, some young and strong Miao people began to surround them, although they were curious, they did not show xenophobic hostility, the green mountains and green waters nurtured the simplicity here, and the world brought them peace and tranquility.

Zhou Bai's eyes became more and more gentle, everyone in the paradise would yearn for, and he was no exception.

He and Xiaobai continued to walk forward, and the crowd grew larger and more lively. Most of the people around him were Miao people, and Zhou Bai only felt a little bit in his ears, and he couldn't understand a word for a long time.

Seeing the change in Zhou Bai's eyes, Xiao Bai also showed a smile, and while responding to them in Miao language, he explained to Zhou Bai: "It seems that southern Xinjiang has been a lot more peaceful here in recent years. ”

"When I came here, ordinary Miao people saw outsiders, all of them were like great enemies, and their eyes were even more vigilant. At that time, the five ethnic groups fought fiercely and cruelly, and the battles between the tribes rose from time to time. But looking at today's situation, I'm afraid there have been fewer fights over the years. ”

Zhou Bai smiled slightly, and said with a smile, "When you came, the moss on the road has been paved with mountain roads, and your memories have been deposited for hundreds of years. ”

Hmm~ Xiaobai's eyes narrowed, and he sneered while grinding his teeth, "Don't reveal the age of the woman, otherwise something very dangerous will happen, you know?"

Zhou Bai wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and quickly nodded, "I know, I know." ”

After a pause, the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Although the Miao people watching next to him couldn't understand what the two said, they were also infected by their laughter, and their eyes softened a little when they looked at the two.

This place is known as Qilitong, and naturally the scope is quite large, and as they go deeper, they see more and more Miao people.

In a flash, Xiaobai was already scattered by his side. Not.... To be exact, Zhou Bai was separated.

He didn't expect that there were so many people in the market here, and the noise and excitement were by no means under the towns of the Central Plains, and when he turned around, he saw that Xiaobai was already sitting in a tavern with an expectant face.

Finding that Zhou Bai turned around, Xiao Bai reacted and hurriedly waved his arm to call Zhou Bai over.

"Come, taste the spirits of this Miaojiang. I've been drinking this wine for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be still there after so much time. Xiaobai gently sniffed the aroma of wine wafting in the store, showed a nostalgic look, and sighed, "Hundreds of years later, the wine is still the original taste, but the people are no longer the people of the year." ”

Zhou Bai was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise, "You ....."

As soon as Xiao Baihua's voice fell, he felt that something was wrong, and quickly explained, "What I said is that the method of brewing wine is still there, but the shopkeeper I met at the beginning is no longer there." ”

When the young shopkeeper saw another person at the table, he picked up the wine jar and brought another bowl and chopsticks.

Wine..... Zhou Bai picked up the pottery bowl in his hand in a daze, the spicy wine smell was different from that in the Central Plains, but it reminded him of the three people who drank in Jinling City at the beginning, and the spicy wine was easy to intoxicate.

Zhou Bai suppressed the memories in his heart and drank it all in one bowl.

"Good wine!"

Zhou Bai is good at drinking, but Zhang Xiaofan is obviously not good, if there is no spiritual power to relieve the discomfort, he can't even swallow this bowl of spirits less than seventy degrees.

Xiao Bai laughed, his white fingers touched Zhou Bai's hot cheeks, the cold touch made Zhou Bai shake his swollen head, two lines of wine spurted out along his nose, and Zhou Bai's face returned to normal.

Xiaobai smiled, "I saw you drink a few glasses on weekdays, and I thought you had a good amount of alcohol, but I didn't want to be able to drink even the spirits." ”

Zhou Bai waved his hand to dispel the smell of wine beside him, and sighed, "Wine is not the original wine, and people are no longer the people they used to be." The palm of his hand gently patted the wine jar, and an invisible aura poured into the wine.

Differentiation, distillation, combining, dispensing.

A different aroma of wine from the front of him suppressed the spicy smell in the tavern.

Mellow, long-term, buried in a not good story.
