Chapter 658 Taste, Meditation, On Taoism
Hundreds of feet away from the river in front, an iron chain as thick as a child's arm stretches across the river. Small lanterns are hung on the iron chain, allowing people to see clearly in the night.

Xiong Mengyan said: "Here we are."

Everyone looked around, and sure enough, the Laohutan Wharf had arrived.

On the other side of the iron chain across the Hengjiang River, the river water suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and that place was naturally a dangerous shoal and cliff, and the river water formed a waterfall and fell down the fault.

The fault is the boundary, and the downstream is another section of the Yangtze River waterway. Everyone has to disembark in advance and walk to the downstream pier by detour before re-boarding.

The boat that Xiong Mengyan and others took finally sailed into the pier.

Since the pier is built on the inner arc side of a natural bend formed by the impact of a river, like a harbor, the water flow is relatively gentle, and the river near the shore is almost as calm as a mirror, with no fluctuations in the water surface.

All kinds of boats were moored densely on the river, and they docked one after another.

It was even more lively on the shore, countless coolies were carrying goods, and countless guests shuttled back and forth.

Some people disembarked, and naturally some people boarded, and many boats had to return upstream overnight.

The reason why these ship owners are so tireless is that they want to earn more money.

All for a living!
Xiong Mengyan said: "I guess the person they are waiting for has not arrived yet, and even if they do, they can only meet downstream. Common sense suggests that the identity of the other party is of no small importance. The meeting between the two parties in the middle of the night is a bit sloppy, so it is unlikely. I guess they It is very likely that we will meet tomorrow morning, so let's go to rest and raise our animals for tomorrow." After she finished speaking, she turned and left the deck to return to her room.

Zhang Zilu and the others looked at each other and went back to their rooms to rest.

Several attendants packed up the scene and left the deck one after another.

There was no one else on the boat at all.

There were a few merchants who wanted to come up, but they were frightened away by the fierce look of Duanmuyan's subordinates!
Of course, Ms. Xiong has explained that she only pays more for the boat fare, not less!
Don't let people underestimate the Demonic Islands!

On another boat, in Yuan Zishan's room, candles flickered.

Yuan Zishan was sitting cross-legged at this time, with her hands and fingers crossed on her legs, looking at her nose with her eyes, and her heart with her nose, like an old monk in meditation.

A ray of cold air is emerging from Baihui above his head!
The cold air condensed and lingered, rising like a wisp of green smoke, reaching the roof!

A layer of frost spread out like ripples on the roof, and within a short while, the entire four walls of the room were also covered with a layer of frost!
If someone walked into the house at this time, they would be shocked!Because the room is extremely cold, as cold as an ice cellar!

Outside the house, Feng Jiuxiao stood quietly, looking up at the moon, enjoying the cold wind on the river that was getting colder.

He knew that Yuan Zishan had started to practice Yin Yin Finger again!
Although this phantom yin finger has no counterattack effect, it has a disadvantage when practicing, that is, it is easy to expose one's whereabouts!
Usually everyone practices in seclusion, why do you do it because you are afraid of people disturbing you?

Even if Yuan Zishan hides in the dark room to practice, it is easy to expose herself!

A layer of frost had already appeared on the doors and windows of Yuan Zishan's room. From the outside, it was clear from the outside, how cold the room was!
Anyone who is a little curious will push the door and enter, which will undoubtedly interrupt her cultivation!

After a long time, Yuan Zishan said: "My big week is over, you should go back and rest, there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Okay." He turned and went back to his room.

After protecting her, Feng Jiuxiao unfolded her spiritual power and performed the magical skill of "Heaven Listening, Earth Vision" that she secretly learned from the Demon Lord to search for the surrounding movement, and there was no abnormality within a radius of several tens of feet.

The lights outside are bright, like a sky full of stars, far more prosperous than the wharves in the cities of the Central Plains.

Feng Jiuxiao thought: Xishu is rich in products, the climate is suitable, and the geographical location is easy to defend and difficult to attack. No wonder the emperors of all dynasties have coveted this land of abundance!
With such a treasure land of geomantic omen as a support base, there is no suspense in a merger battle!

The boat finally docked and stopped.

It was still early and the moon was at its zenith.Feng Jiuxiao didn't feel sleepy at all. He came to the door of Pang Shiwu's room. Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door was already opened. Pang Shiwu greeted him with a smile, "Brother, I knew you couldn't sleep. What's the matter, get off the boat and go for a walk." ?”

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Let's go!"

There is a mobile currency market that has been formed for many years on the wharf, and the scale is not small.

This kind of currency market is born in response to the situation.

There are many wharves along the Yangtze River, and those wharfs have more customers traveling from south to north, and those shrewd businessmen will take the opportunity to take root there.

Since there are many people from other places, the goods sold must of course be mainly local specialties.

The nearest big county is Yuzhou, so Yuzhou has the most special products, while the other prefectures and counties in Western Shu have relatively few special products.

Because there is a lot of oil and water in it, the local snakes nearby have already heard the news. After dozens of fires, the Laohutan site was finally taken down by Boss An.

They collect a certain amount of "protection fee" on a regular basis for each household, and then set aside a random location for everyone to set up stalls.With the participation of Boss An, the local snake, everyone is in order.

Feng Jiuxiao and Pang Shiwu got off the boat and walked straight through the crowd towards the goods market area.

There are many lanterns hanging there, almost as bright as day.

There are many stalls.

Some sell Zhang Fei beef.The two communicated with the stall owner, only to realize that Zhang Fei Beef is not only the most famous specialty in Langzhong, Shuchuan, but also a delicacy with Sichuan flavor. It has a very long history. It was founded in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and has been around for hundreds of years. history.

Select high-quality beef as the main raw material, add salt and spices, make it through traditional production techniques, and finally air-dry it before eating.

The two took a sip, and it tasted pretty good.Pang Shiwu took out his silver and bought twenty catties of beef jerky. The boss grinned, showing his broken teeth.

At that moment, Feng Jiuxiao suddenly thought of Wei Wuya.Wei Wuya also has no front teeth, and has been called Dahuoya since he was a child.

Seeing Feng Jiuxiao startled for a moment, Pang Shiwu said, "Brother, do you remember the big gap?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Yes."

Pang Shiwu said: "I just communicated with him a few days ago. Pengcheng is doing very well. The side business is getting less and less, but the income has not decreased. This kid is quite business-minded."

Feng Jiuxiao nodded and walked to the next booth, "His experience in Pengcheng is very good, and he can promote it. Gwangju and Caizhou are basically following this path now, helping justice, suppressing evil, and returning the common people to a bright future." !"

Pang Shiwu said: "The underworld and green forest forces over there have basically been taken over by Da Huo Yazi. It can be said that the rivers and lakes are calm, but some small officials in Pengcheng are beginning to ask for some benefits."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "As long as it's not too much, it doesn't matter. Although Emperor Sejong took strict measures to govern the officials, after all, Pengcheng Mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. After all, we are people in the rivers and lakes, so it is inevitable that there will be some outrageous things, and we can't do anything with the local government. Too stiff."

Pang Shiwu said: "This big gaping tooth is measured."

There is Shu brocade which is as famous as Jinling brocade, Suzhou Su brocade, and Guihai Zhuang brocade. Pang Shiwu directly took two pieces, and the boss was also very happy!Other customers judged the size, but this young man took two horses directly, he was definitely a big customer!

When he encountered Shu embroidery, which is also known as the four famous embroideries in the world, together with Su embroidery, Hunan embroidery, and Guangdong embroidery, Pang Shiwu bought one "Flying with wings", one "Songhe Yannian", one "Flowers bloom and wealth", and one "Flowers before flowers and under the moon". ".

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Buy so much?"

Pang Shiwu laughed and said, "I don't know which pepper I like, so I just buy a few more, it's easy to choose."

Feng Jiuxiao gave a thumbs up!

There are people sipping tea in front, among which the Emeishan bamboo-leaf green tea stalls are the most crowded.I heard the boss introduce the various allusions of this tea. Among them, "Wen Xuan Zhu" written by Li Shan in the Tang Dynasty recorded: "Emei has many herbs, and the tea is especially good. It is different from the world. Today's Heishui Temple, also known as Wannian Temple, There is a kind of tea produced at the back of Baishui Temple, which is delicious, and the color is red every two years and green every year, and it is not always."

General Mengcheng of Sichuan, Eunuch Li of the capital, and Taifu Changming all publicly praised the benefits of this tea!
Feng Jiuxiao saw that there are three types of tea, and knowing that there should be three grades, she asked the price.

Seeing that the young man was calm and relaxed, the boss said politely: "This tea is divided into three grades: taste, meditation and discussion. They are ten Wen a tael, fifty Wen a tael, and three hundred Wen a tael. two!"

Pang Shiwu said with a smile: "The grade of this tea sounds like a monk practicing Taoism!"

The boss salivated with a smile: "This tea has a relationship with Buddhism and Taoism!"

Oh?As soon as Feng Jiuxiao heard that Zhifo and Taoism were destined, she immediately signaled Pang Shiwu to pay.

Pang Shiwu didn't ask how much he paid, knowing that his eldest brother was always free, and he probably bought as much tea as he paid for, so he took out a small ingot of silver, about 30 taels, and put it on the booth.

Sure enough, Feng Jiuxiao said: "According to these silver coins, ten taels of silver is used to discuss the Tao, ten taels of silver is for meditation, and the rest is tasteful!"
