Chapter 199, The other side walks through Huaxi Valley, the love song is only accompanied by the sou
199, the other side passes through the flower valley, the love song is only accompanied by the sound of flowing water
Pororama described it as a sixteen-seven-year-old girl, who was not familiar with the world, and she blinked and replied, "I originally wanted to find him first, but I didn't think about anything else. Later, when Fairy Zhiyan asked, I thought about it, just stay with him like at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. If I could be like Fairy Zhiyan and Young Master Mei, it would be better."
Qingfeng: "What if Wei Tan didn't know you at all and ignored you?" His series of questions today were a bit strange.
Pororama was stopped and frowned and showed a worried expression. Zhiyan quickly spoke and comforted, "Even if this is the case, it's nothing. I didn't know Zhenyi at the beginning. I was destined to get to know him, so I became a Taoist couple." After hearing this, Pororama's expression calmed down again.
Mei Zhenyi felt something was wrong. Qingfeng was not a mean person, so why did he say these words? He secretly asked with the speechless Guanyin technique: "Immortal boy, is there something wrong with things?"
"Mei Zhenyi, I ask you, Wei Tan no longer knows what happened in his previous life, how did he find Mei Danzo? After he died, there was still a mark in his spiritual consciousness. He could remember him when he saw Mei Danzo, and he could also remember him when he saw the reincarnated Miaoyin Jialan... But if he saw Borurama, he would have no impression, which means that he did not leave a trace of her in his spiritual consciousness when he died. The wish to reincarnate into the human world had nothing to do with Borurama. Borurama might have been searching for him." Qingfeng also answered secretly.
Mei Zhenyi: "So what? Zhiyan said well. If you don't know, you can re-recognize it, let alone you haven't found it yet."
"It may not be as Borurama wished. As soon as she appears, there may be unknowable consequences..." Qingfeng wanted to say something, Mingyue, who was standing beside him, pulled his sleeve and said, "Brother Qingfeng, please help her! If you are gone, I will look for it everywhere."
"Mingyue, don't talk like that!" Although Qingfeng stopped drinking, his tone was not heavy. He looked at her with a little helpless look. He turned to Mei Zhenyi and said, "I didn't say I won't help, give me the mirror."
Mei Zhenyi took out the demon-scanning mirror and handed it over. Qingfeng took the mirror and wiped the mirror with his hand. He looked slightly surprised and said, "So quickly, Lingyin will be washed away?"
Mei Zhenyi: "It's not washing it off, it's just taking it back with Mr.
Qingfeng smiled and said, "It's earlier than I expected. This mirror is yours, but it is recommended that you don't use it indiscriminately."
Mei Zhenyi nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, I dare not use it easily, so I come and ask the fairy boy to cast spells." Mei Zhenyi has tried the powerful mirror. As soon as she activated the method of controlling the weapon, she immediately stopped her hand and had not yet studied the magical use carefully.
This mirror is not impossible to use, but the range of extension of the spiritual consciousness is almost infinite, just like entering an empty and boundless abyss world. You can "see" clearly the range of extension of the spiritual consciousness. This is a problem. Can your thoughts bear such a large range of information? Flowing into the spiritual consciousness together will break the soul.
At the same time, it is unimaginable to activate it to consume mana. The larger the range of spiritual consciousness, the more the mana it consumes instantly increases several times. If it is not used for ordinary magic weapons, it would be fine, but if you know how to control the weapon, you can use this mirror. It is like a trap. If you are not careful, you can disperse your soul in an instant and drain your energy.
The smartest way is to just not touch it before your 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 on the harem, and his spirit fluctuated and seemed to be spreading endlessly. However, after only a few breaths, Qingfeng took the spell and opened his eyes and said, "Wei Tan is not within a thousand miles."
Hearing this sentence, Mei Zhenyi understood how Qingfeng used this mirror. He controlled the extension of his spiritual consciousness within a thousand miles, swept it over and immediately took it back.
Mingyue can see the spiritual roots of heaven and earth thousands of miles away in the demon mirror, because it is inherently connected to her spiritual sense, and just looking at one ground does not mean sweeping across a radius of thousands of miles. It is different to Qingfeng find Wei Tan. Carpet-style search is needed, because it is not sure where he is in advance.
This tells Mei Zhenyi how to use the demon-scan mirror in the future? It is not to extend the spiritual consciousness as far as possible, but to control the scope of the spiritual consciousness. The method of searching for the gods will be swept over and retracted immediately. If you find the target you are looking for, you can use the spiritual consciousness to lock the focus and observe it without using mana on a large scale.
But he didn't know that there was a limit to this kind of mirror. In some places, the spiritual consciousness is difficult to sweep. For example, the Immortal Cave Heaven barrier. In some places, it needs to be avoided, such as other masters who are based on the place of practice. If they are noticed by the other party, they may be understood as hostile snooping, causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
Wei Tan was not within a thousand miles, and Pororama asked in disappointment: "What should I do? Can the fairy boy find him?"
Mei Zhenyi comforted: "Don't worry, the fairy boy must have a way."
Just now, seeing Qingfeng casting spells to search for the gods for thousands of miles, Mei Zhenyi thought of a way to find Wei Tan, but he didn't say it. What would you do if Qingfeng saw it? Should I expand the scope of the search for the spiritual sense, or use the method I thought of?
Qingfeng said, "You are here to wait, I will come." After the words turned into a divine wind, he flew into the sky with the demon mirror, and went thousands of miles away.
It seems that Qingfeng is not stupid either. Using land is what Mei Zhenyi thought of. She only controlled the spiritual sense in the mirror to sweep it through a thousand miles, but the person flew away and searched around Wuzhou every thousand miles. He said he would come when he went, but Mei Zhenyi waited for more than an hour before she saw Qingfeng falling from the sky and returning to Jingting Mountain.
The golden immortal looked obviously tired, raised the demon mirror and said only three words: "Finally found!"
There is no reflection in the mirror, but a frozen picture. On both sides are lush mountains and winding mountain roads pass by a turbulent river. There is no bridge on the river, a boat is parked on the shore, and a person is sitting on the bow.
He was a man in his thirties, wearing a coarse cloth dress with patches, rolled up his sleeves, with thick short beards, a clear face, a angular face, a muscle on his arms, and a delicate and light yellow skin. He had seen the boatman Wei Tan on the bank of Haoshui, and was still a boatman at this moment. Wei Tan in the mirror just looked up and looked up. There was a flash of splendor in his eyes, as if he had been alarmed by the search of Qingfeng's spiritual sense.
"Is it him?" Zhiyan asked Porarama softly.
"It's him, I can recognize him, how did he become like this?" Pororama's lips trembled a little, and his expression was very excited, and his tone was filled with regret. Wei Tan, the shabby boatman, of course, could not be compared with Wei Tuotian, the glorious guardian general at the foot of Lingshan. Pororamahua felt distressed when she saw it.
"It's him." Qingfeng's hand shook. The light and shadow in the mirror disappeared, and he threw the mirror back to Mei Zhenyi.
Mei Zhenyi asked the most critical question: "Where is this?"
"South of Shaozhou..." Qingfeng directly sent a divine thought, imprinting the complex directions of mountains and rivers in Mei Zhenyi's divine sense, and waved his hand and said, "You go, I'm tired."
Mei Zhenyi took out a bag, opened it, and shone brightly in the sun. He bowed and said, "My Mei family offers a reward, who can find Wei Tan. I wish to give 300 taels of gold as a thank you. Although the fairy boy is not greedy for worldly money, I cannot break my promise. Please accept these 300 taels of gold, please feel free to deal with it."
Qingfeng did not reach out to take it, and said lightly: "Since that's the case, let it go." Mei Zhenyi put it down, and all three hundred taels of gold were placed on the ground.
Mingyue reached out to support Qingfeng and said with concern: "Brother Qingfeng, you are really tired. I will help you to rest in the green snow sacred wood forest." The two golden immortals left, Mei Zhenyi and others also left, leaving only a pile of gold reflecting the sunshine in the mountains.
Where did Qingfeng find Wei Tan? According to modern geographical location, it is the Wulong Mountain area at the junction of Hunan and Guizhou, three thousand miles away from Wuzhou. In other words, Qingfeng flew three major circles every thousand miles away from Wuzhou. On the one hand, he searched Wei Tan with a demon mirror. No wonder he was so tired. Even if he had the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal, he was not omnipotent in the world.
This is a place where Sanmiao and Han people live together since ancient times. Even in modern times, it is a mountainous area with quite low news. Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, the news that the Mei family offered a large reward did not reach the Wulong Mountain area.
The place where Wei Tan stopped was called Huaxi Valley, and the river in the valley was called Luohuaxi. Although the name sounded good, the water flow was quite dangerous. Mountain people came and went to cross the river and had to walk a cable bridge on the cliff ten miles away. Ten miles away sounded not far, but it was often a daytime to walk around the steep mountain road.
The mountain road is not only steep. There are also many wild animals and poisonous insects in the dense forest, and there are also miasma. They can only walk together after the sun rises. On rainy days and when there are few people, they are almost impossible to pass. Some people must leave because of urgent matters and often die in the mountains. In short, it is extremely inconvenient to come and go, and various accidents often occur.
A few years ago, a man named Wei Tan came here. He built a boat in Huaxi Valley, which could accommodate ten people crossing the river at a time. Wei Tan was extremely powerful. He could use a goose egg to grow old and steadily to pass through Luohuaxi to the other side. It took only a cup of tea to go back and forth.
This is a remote mountainous area, with low news and backward economy. On average, few people cross the river a day. However, since Wei Tan arrived and opened the river crossing road, there have been more exchanges between Luohua Creek, especially the Miao Village in the mountainous area and the Shaozhou area in the north, the business and visiting relatives and friends are becoming more prosperous day by day, and gradually developed to nearly 100 people crossing the river every day. The products in the mountainous villages can be easily transported to the city, and it is much more convenient to bring the goods in the city to the city to the past than before.
All this is because Wei Tan, who only charges one cent to carry a boat back and forth, and each person can carry a cargo with one penny. He can collect one more cargo and send people to the other side of the river. When he comes back, he can cross the river for free. What is amazing is that no matter how long it takes, Wei Tan can remember every person who crosses the river. Someone crossed the river a year ago to search for relatives and friends in the north, but when he comes back, Wei Tan did not collect the boat money and still sent him.
Some people also lied that they paid the ship money when crossing the river last month, and tried to pass it in vain. Wei Tan didn't talk much nonsense, Zhu Jiao said: "You lie to me, pay the ship money to cross the river!"
As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds when the forest is big. Although the folk customs in the mountains are simple, they are not necessarily all good people. There was a group of black seedlings. Fei said that he had paid money last time across the river, so he rushed onto the boat and pulled out a scimitar to force Wei Tan to send them across the river. Wei Tan was a bamboo thigh and knocked them all off the boat. One of them fell into the water and was swept away by the torrents on the shore and drowned in Luohua Creek.
Because a penny of beating is not worth it, because a penny of life is not worth it. Wei Tan's move to ride a boat and cross the river benefit the local people. This person is good at everything, and even if he turns against him, he is ruthless enough. But this is only one example. After drowning the first person, no one will do this again. Wei Tan still rides a boat every day, and no one in the local area pursues this matter.
Will anyone not be able to take out a penny? Yes! At that time, you could buy two liters of rice with a penny. The poor people in the mountainous areas didn’t spend much cash under closed natural economic conditions, and sometimes they were short of cash. So the mountain people who crossed the river occasionally used two liters of rice and flour, a pheasant, a basket of bamboo shoots, etc. for ship supplies, and Wei Tan also accepted it well, a bit like Sun Simiao, a place where he practiced medicine in Qiyunguan.
Sometimes, villagers have urgent matters to cross the river, but they really have no money and things. They can ow credit first, but the accumulated credit owing cannot exceed ten cents, which is ten round trips. Although Wei Tan did not keep the accounts, he knew very well that if someone owed ten cents of money and did not pay the money, he would not think about taking the boat for him for free.
Even if the man stood on the shore crying and wiping tears, he said that he was extremely pitiful, and even wanted to throw himself into the water and commit suicide, Wei Tan would not even raise his eyelids at the bow of the ship. It would be better to go around the rope bridge ten miles away with this skill. When Wei Tan was doing things, he was really not merciless when he should be doing things.
With the gradual prosperity of trade and circulation between the people on both sides of Luohua Valley, many local villages and large families realized the importance of this passage and exaggeratedly described its influence on the local area. Just like the Panama Canal in the Americas today.
Controlling this passage is equivalent to controlling the interests of traffic and trade, but the passage is Wei Tanshu's ship. So many powerful clans in the local area were fighting Wei Tan's ideas openly and secretly, trying to threaten and control him. As a result, they did not succeed. 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 later no one dared to secretly attack Wei Tan.
If you don’t make bad ideas, you can do a good idea? In this mountainous area, no matter what Miao villages and Han villages, no one doesn’t want to make friends with Wei Tan, but how do you make friends?
Wei Tan is a single man. He is strong and handsome, and is respected by thousands of people in the local area. His income is also very high. Even if he only charges one penny for a boat, he still has hundreds of pennies every day, and he is quite affordable. Moreover, this person has no bad habits, so he built two thatched cottages on the bank of Luohua Creek. He treats people very modestly most of the time, but he is not afraid of anyone bullying them.
Such a person is in such a place, he is a rich son-in-law!
Anyone in the local area who has a daughter who is not married wants to marry Wei Tan. The girls' parents are like this. Many girls themselves also like Wei Tan, and they take a penny to take the boat with nothing to do, just want to take the opportunity to get closer. There are also women from Miao who are more unrestrained and often run to the south bank of Luohua Creek to sing love songs. The content of the song is bold and straightforward, making people blush and heart beat.
There were endless streams of people coming to propose marriage and matchmaking, and even women from the mountain rushed to the door at night, but Wei Tan refused. At least he had never heard of any woman he was in love with.
I also heard that Liao Feng, the daughter of Liao Fu, the largest Miao village leader in the local area, also fell in love with Wei Tan and failed to court. He even asked his father to be the most famous local wizard to give Wei Tan a witchcraft like "Concentric Gu" to force Wei Tan to have a good time with him, but Liao leader did not agree.
——The above are folk rumors that Ti Liuzhuo asked after entering the Wulong Mountain area. After hearing this, Mei Zhenyi said in her heart: "It seems that there are quite a few 'love rivals' in Boruo Rama!" This time, Mei Zhenyi and Zhiyan accompanied Boruo Ramahua to the Wulong Mountain area, and Ti Liuzhuo, who likes to join in the fun, also came.
"The man is making waves at the bow of the boat. I wait for the man to enter the mulberry room. The spring silkworms sprinkle silk and love many times. A girl is hidden in her thoughts. The sun goes through the waves and hopes to enjoy the sunset. A girl smiles like the sunshine. Don't ask the embroidered brocade to lay an empty bed. The man comes to listen to the girl singing. I make silkworms and tell the long silk..."
When Mei Zhenyi and others came to Luohua Creek, several women in Miao clothes stood on the other side. One of them was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a high nose and big eyes, a slightly tall cheekbones, and a pretty face that looked like a foreign woman. She was wearing a blue cloth floral skirt, barefoot, and her bare legs were exposed under her skirt. She was singing a mountain song to a boat in the river, singing in local slang, and her voice was crisp and pleasant.
Zhiyan heard the slang lyrics and glanced at Mei Zhenyi and couldn't help but blush. Mei Zhenyi first thought of a love poem "Mangzhong" in "The Book of Songs - Yongfeng", and then remembered a love song "The Love of a Boatman" from later generations. Ti slipped over and said in secret: "The person who sang the mountain song is Miao girl Liao Feng."
