199 times, the other side through the flower valley, love songs only accompanied by the sound of flowing water

Puroloma described her as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and she was very innocent of the world, she blinked her eyes and replied: "Originally, I just wanted to find him first, and I didn't think about anything else, but then when the Flame Fairy asked, I thought, just be with him like I did at the foot of the Spirit Mountain, if I can be like the Flame Fairy and Mei Gongzi, it would be better." ”

Qingfeng: "What if Wei Tan doesn't know you at all and doesn't pay attention to you?" His series of questions today was a little strange.

Puroloma was asked, frowning and showing a worried expression. Zhiyan hurriedly opened his mouth to comfort: "Even so, it's nothing, I didn't know Zhenyi at the beginning, and I became a Taoist companion by fate." Hearing this, Parjorama's expression softened again.

Mei Zhenyi felt that something was wrong, Qingfeng was not a person who spoke harshly, why did he say these words? He secretly asked in a speechless Guanyin technique: "Xiantong, is there something wrong with things?"

"Mei Zhenyi, let me ask you, Wei Tan no longer knows about his previous life, how can he go to find Mei Danzuo? After he died, there are still marks in his divine consciousness, he can remember when he sees Mei Danzuo, and he can also remember when he sees the reincarnated Miaoyin Garan. ...... But if he saw Parjorama, he had no impression, which means that he did not leave a trace of her in his consciousness when he died, and his desire to be reincarnated into the human world has nothing to do with Parjorama, and Parjorama may be looking for nothing. Qingfeng also replied secretly.

Mei Zhenyi: "So what, Zhiyan said it well, if you don't know it, you can get to know it again, not to mention that you haven't found it yet." ”

"It may not be as Puroloma wishes, as soon as she appears, there may be unknowable consequences......" Qingfeng was about to say something, Mingyue on the side tugged at his sleeve and said: "Brother Qingfeng, you can help her! If you are gone, I will look for it everywhere." ”

"Mingyue, don't talk like that!" Qingfeng was drinking. But the tone was not heavy, looking at her eyes a little helpless, he turned to Mei Zhenyi and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't help, give me the mirror." ”

Mei Zhenyi took out the demon mirror and handed it over, Qingfeng took the mirror and wiped the mirror with his hand, and said with a slightly shocked expression: "So fast, the spirit guide was washed away?"

Mei Zhenyi: "It's not washed away, it's taken back by Mr. himself." ”

Qingfeng smiled: "It's a little earlier than I expected." This mirror is yours, but it is recommended that you do not use it indiscriminately. ”

Mei Zhenyi nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I don't dare to use it easily, so I came to ask the fairy child to cast a spell." "This mirror is so powerful that Mei Zhenyi has already tried it, and as soon as he urged it with the method of imperial weapons, he immediately withdrew his hand and even studied the magic of it carefully.

It's not that this mirror can't be used, but the scope of divine consciousness is almost infinite, like entering an empty and boundless abyss world. You can "see" clearly as far as your consciousness extends. This is the question, can your mind withstand such a large range of information?

At the same time, it is unimaginable to urge it to consume mana, and the greater the scope of divine consciousness extension, the mana consumed in an instant will increase several times. If it can't be used with ordinary magic weapons, it doesn't matter, but this mirror can be used with the magic of imperial weapons. It's like a trap that can scatter your spirit and drain your vitality in an instant.

The smartest way is to simply not touch it until the cultivation is insufficient, Mei Zhenyi also wants to see how Qingfeng uses this mirror.

Qingfeng took the mirror but closed his eyes. Mei Zhenyi could sense that he was already casting a spell with the imperial weapon, and the fluctuations of his divine qi spread and seemed to diverge into boundlessness. However, with only a few breaths, Qingfeng took the spell and opened his eyes: "Wei Tan is not within a thousand miles. ”

Hearing this, Mei Zhenyi understood how Qingfeng used this mirror. He controlled the extension of his divine consciousness within a thousand miles, swept it over and immediately retracted it.

Mingyue can see the spiritual root of heaven and earth thousands of miles away in the demon mirror, because it is originally connected with her spiritual sense, and just looking at one place is not the same as sweeping a radius of thousands of miles. And Qingfeng's difficulty in finding Wei Tan is different. A carpet search is needed, as it is not clear in advance where he is.

This tells Mei Zhenyi how to use the demon mirror in the future? It is not to extend the divine consciousness as far as possible, but to control the scope of the extension of the divine consciousness as much as possible, and immediately withdraw the method of searching for the gods, if you find the target you are looking for, you can use the divine sense to lock the key observation, and you don't need to use mana on a large scale.

But there is one thing he doesn't know yet, so the mirror also has limitations. There are places where the consciousness is difficult to sweep. For example, the Immortal Family Cave Heavenly Enchantment. There are places to avoid, such as places where other masters have a foothold to practice. If it is detected by the other party, it may be interpreted as hostile prying eyes, causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

Wei Tan was not within a thousand miles, and Boro Rama asked with some disappointment, "What should I do then?"

Mei Zhenyi comforted: "Don't worry, Xiantong must have a way." ”

Seeing Qingfeng casting a spell to search for thousands of miles, Mei Zhenyi thought of a way to find Wei Tan, but he didn't say it, what would he do if he saw Qingfeng? Is it to expand the scope of the divine sense search, or use the method he thought of?

Qingfeng said: "You guys are waiting here, and I'll come when I go." After speaking, he turned into a divine wind, flew into the sky with a demon mirror, and went thousands of miles away.

It seems that Qingfeng is not stupid, and using the land is the method that Mei Zhenyi thought of, only controlling the divine sense in the mirror and sweeping it in a radius of thousands of miles, but the person flew away, searching in circles around Wuzhou every thousand miles. He said that he would come when he went, but Mei Zhenyi waited for more than an hour before seeing the breeze descend from the sky back to Jingting Mountain.

This golden immortal looked obviously tired, and he raised the demon mirror and only said three words: "Found it!"

Instead of a reflection, the mirror is a freeze-frame image of wooded mountains on either side, with a winding mountain road passing a rushing river. There was no bridge over the river, a boat was parked on the shore, and a man sat in the bow.

He was a man of about thirty years old, wearing a coarse cloth shirt with patches, short sleeves rolled up, a thick short beard, a sharp and angular face, tangled muscles on his arms, and a delicate light tooth yellow skin. Wei Tan in the mirror happened to look up. There was a glint in his eyes, as if he had been alarmed by the search of the Divine Sense of the Clear Wind.

"Is that him?" Zhiyan asked Borrama softly.

"It's him, I can recognize him, how did he become like this?" Paramo's lips trembled, and his expression was very excited, and his tone was full of regret. The shabby boatman Wei Tan, of course, can't be compared with the glorious patron saint at the foot of the Spirit Mountain, and the Poryorama Flower only feels distressed when he sees it.

"It's just him. The breeze shook his hand. The light and shadow disappeared in the mirror, and the mirror was thrown back to Mei Zhenyi.

Mei Zhenyi asked the most critical question: "What is this place?"

"To the south of Shaozhou......" Qingfeng directly sent a divine thought, imprinted the complex directions of the mountains and rivers in Mei Zhenyi's divine sense, waved his hand and said: "Go ahead, I'm tired." ”

Mei Zhenyi took out a baggage, opened it and shone in the sun, he bowed and saluted: "My Mei family has a reward, who can find Wei Tan." May I give you three hundred taels of gold as a thanksgiving. Although Xiantong is not greedy for money in the world, I can't break my promise, please accept the three hundred taels of gold, and feel free to dispose of it. ”

Qingfeng didn't reach out to pick it up, and said lightly: "Since that's the case." Just put it down. Mei Zhenyi put it down, and the three hundred taels of gold were placed on the ground.

Mingyue stretched out her hand to support Qingfeng and said with great concern: "Brother Qingfeng, you are really tired. I'll help you to rest in the green and snowy sacred forest. The two golden immortals left, and Mei Zhenyi and the others also left, leaving only a pile of gold reflecting the sunlight in the mountains.

According to the modern geographical orientation, it is the Wulong Mountain area at the junction of Hunan and Guizhou, 3,000 miles away from Wuzhou. In other words, Qingfeng flew three times around Wuzhou every thousand miles, and searched for Wei Tan with a demon mirror, no wonder he was tired like this, even if it was a golden immortal cultivator. It is not omnipotent in the world.

This is the place where the three Miao and the Han people live together since ancient times, even in modern times, it is also a mountainous area where the news is quite closed, not to mention that in the Tang Dynasty, the news of the Mei family's heavy reward did not spread to the Wulong Mountain area at all.

The place where Wei Tan stopped is called Huaxi Valley, and the river in the valley is called Luohuaxi, although the name is good. But the current was treacherous. Mountain people come and go across the river. You have to walk a rope bridge over a cliff ten miles away. Ten miles may not sound like a long distance, but a detour on a steep mountain road is often a day's time.

The mountain roads are not only steep. Moreover, there are many beasts and poisonous insects in the dense forest, and there is a miasma, so dozens of people can only walk together after the sun rises. On rainy days and when the number of people is small, it is almost impossible to pass, and some people must go because they are in a hurry, and they are often killed in the mountains, in short, it is extremely inconvenient to come and go, and there are often various accidents.

A few years ago, a man named Wei Tan came here and built a boat in the Huaxi Valley, which can accommodate ten people to cross the river at a time. Wei Tan was extremely powerful, and with a goose egg-thick long tree, he was able to hold the boat through Luohua Creek to the opposite bank steadily, and it was no more than a cup of tea back and forth.

This is a remote mountainous area, the news is closed, the economy is backward, and there are not many people who cross the river in one day on average. However, since the arrival of Wei Tan and the opening of this road to cross the river, there have been more exchanges on both sides of the Luohua River, especially in the mountainous Miao Village and the northern Shaozhou area, where the goods and trade and visiting relatives and friends have become more and more prosperous day by day, and gradually developed to nearly 100 people crossing the river every day. The products in the cottage can be easily transported to the state city, and it is much more convenient to bring the goods back to the cottage than before.

All this is because of Wei Tan, he only charges a penny for supporting the boat back and forth, and one person can carry the goods for one penny, and one penny more for the goods, and send people to the other side, and when he comes back, he can cross the river for free. Amazingly, no matter how much time has passed, Wei Tan can remember everyone who crossed the river. Someone crossed the river to the north to look for relatives and friends a year ago, and when he came back, Wei Tan didn't charge for the boat and sent him the same.

There are also people who lied that they had paid for the boat when they crossed the river last month, and tried to pass in vain, Wei Tan didn't talk much nonsense, and Zhu Ji said horizontally: "You tell me, pay the boat money to cross the river!"

As the saying goes, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and although the people in the mountains are simple, they are not all good people. There was once a group of black seedlings, not to say that they had crossed the river last time and paid the money, so they rushed to the boat and pulled out their scimitars to force Wei Tan to send them across the river. Wei Tan and a bamboo tree knocked them all off the boat, and one of them slipped into the water, was swept away by the shore rapids and drowned in Luohua Creek.

Because a penny is not worth it in itself, because it is not worth it if a penny is killed. Wei Tan's move of crossing the river by boat benefits the local people, this person is good at everything, even if he turns his face, he is ruthless enough. But this is the only case of this, and after the first person was drowned, no one did it again. Wei Tan still holds the boat every day, and no one in the local area pursues the matter.

At that time, it was possible to buy two liters of rice for a penny, and the poor people in the mountainous areas did not have much cash to use under the closed natural economic conditions, and sometimes they did not have enough cash on hand. So the mountain people who crossed the river would occasionally use two liters of rice noodles, a pheasant, a basket of bamboo shoots, etc. as the fare, and Wei Tan also accepted it, a bit like Sun Simiao, who practiced medicine in Qiyunguan back then.

Sometimes, the villagers have urgent matters to cross the river, and they really have no money or anything. You can pay the credit first, but the cumulative credit shall not exceed ten wen, that is, ten round-trips. Although Wei Tan doesn't keep accounts, he knows very well in his heart that if someone owes ten wen boat money and has not paid it, don't think about getting on another boat for nothing.

Even if the man stood on the shore and cried and wiped his tears, he said that he was extremely pitiful, and even committed suicide by throwing himself into the water, Wei Tan would not even raise his eyelids at the bow of the boat. With this effort, it is better to go around the rope bridge ten miles away. Wei Tan does things, when he should be ruthless, it is really ruthless.

With the gradual prosperity of people and trade on both sides of the Luohua Valley, many local cottages and clans are aware of the importance of this passage, and exaggeratedly describe its influence in the local area. Just like the Panama Canal in the Americas today.

To control this passage is to control the interests in traffic and trade, but the passage is the ship that Wei Tan supports. As a result, many powerful clans in the local area were openly and secretly attacking Wei Tan's idea, trying to coerce and control him. As a result, none of them succeeded. It is said that seven or eight more drowned in Luohua Creek, all of whom fell into the water in the middle of the night, and then no one dared to secretly attack Wei Tan's idea.

If you don't have a bad idea, you can always have a good idea, right? In this mountainous area, whether it is Miao Village or Han Village, no one wants to make friends with Wei Tan, but how to make friends?

Wei Tan is a single man. He is strong and dignified, and is respected by tens of thousands of people in the local area. His income is also very high, even if he only collects one penny for the ship, he has hundreds of wen a day, and he has quite a lot of money on hand. And this person doesn't have any bad habits, so he built two thatched cottages on the bank of Luohua Creek to live, and most of the time he treats people very modestly, but he is not afraid of being bullied by anyone.

Such a person. In such a place. That's the golden beetle!

As long as there are unmarried people in the local area, they don't want to marry Wei Tan. The parents of the girl's family are like this. There are many girls who also take a fancy to Wei Tan themselves, and they take a penny to take a boat if they have nothing to do, just to take the opportunity to get closer. There are also Miao women who are more unrestrained, and often go to the south bank of Luohua River to sing love songs, and the bold and straightforward content of the singing makes people blush and heartbeat.

There was an endless stream of people who came to propose relatives and talk about the media, and there were even women in the mountains who came to the door directly at night, but Wei Tan refused all of them, at least so far I haven't heard of any woman he is good with.

I also heard that Liao Feng, the daughter of Liao Fu, the largest local Miao village patriarch, also fell in love with Wei Tan, and failed to court, and even asked his father, who was also the most famous local wizard, to give Wei Tan a kind of witchcraft such as "Concentric Gu", so that Wei Tan had to be friendly with him, but the Liao patriarch did not agree.

——The above are the folk rumors that came after entering the Wulong Mountain area. After hearing this, Mei Zhenyi secretly said in his heart: "It seems that there are still a lot of 'love rivals' in Borurama!" This time, Mei Zhenyi and Zhiyan accompanied Borurama to the Wulong Mountain Area, and the lively Tiyo Zhuan also came.

"Lang is making waves in the heart of the bow of the boat, I will wait for Lang Jun to enter the mulberry room, the spring silkworm spins silk and is full of affection, Ah Mei is hidden in the song, shuttles through the waves during the day, looks forward to the sunset and enjoys the glow, Ah Mei smiles and sai Xia Yan, don't call the embroidered brocade to make the empty bed, Lang supports the boat to listen to the sister sing, I make the silkworm and the silk is long......"

When Mei Zhenyi and the others came to Luohua Creek, there were several Miaofu women standing on the opposite bank. One of them was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a high nose and big eyes, slightly high cheekbones, and a pretty face that resembled that of a woman of an alien race. She was dressed in a blue cloth floral dress, barefoot, with her bare calves exposed under the skirt, and she was singing a mountain song to a boat in the middle of the river, singing in the local slang, and her voice was crisp and pleasant.

Zhiyan heard the slang lyrics, glanced at Mei Zhenyi and couldn't help blushing. Mei Zhenyi first thought of a love poem "Sangzhong" in "The Book of Songs-Hu Feng", and then remembered a love song "Slender Man's Love" in later generations. Tiyo floated over and said secretly: "The one who sings the mountain song is the Miao girl Liao Feng." ”

Bojorama didn't pay attention to what the woman on the other side was singing, and when she saw Wei Tan holding a boat in the stream, she couldn't take her eyes off it anymore, standing on the hillside and looking at Wei Tan's figure motionlessly.
