Legend of Meow Immortal

Chapter 4 Meiwu River Xu Shanren

The blue sky is like washing, and the green hills are endless.

Qianmei Mountain is not conspicuous in the Silver Moon Mountain Range.

Although it is located in the border area of ​​the Great Xia Empire, it is famous for the thousands of green plum trees on the mountain.

At this time in March of Yangchun, the branches are full of green fruits, which is really attractive.

At the foot of Qianmei Mountain is Wutou Town.

The origin of Wutou Town is because of the Wushui River beside the town.

Throughout the year, the water is as black as ink.If the water is picked up and left the river, the water becomes as clear as usual.

In this strange river, a unique kind of fish is produced, which is black-headed snakehead.

It is said that this kind of food is not only fresh and delicious, but also nourishes qi and blood, nourishes yin and strengthens yang, and even has the miraculous effect of turning white-haired people black.

Every year on the third day of March, when green plums hang on the branches, it is the time to catch blackhead black fish.

Wutou Town was originally a small village, but because of the existence of the blackhead black fish, it gradually expanded into a medium-sized village.

It's getting more and more lively.

It's a pity that Wutou Town is located on the border of Yinyue Mountains, and the scene is already extreme, and there is no possibility of further development.

Walk on the bluestone road.

Feel the breeze passing by.

Looking at the bustling crowd all around.

Xu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, he really hadn't felt this kind of comfort for a long time.

He carried a bamboo basket and walked towards the fish market unhurriedly.

From time to time, people greeted him, and most of them knew that this one was a rich master.

"Oh! Isn't this Mr. Xu? I haven't seen you for a long time, how come you are free today?" Just entering the fish market, the fat black man who was shaving fish scales at the door saw Xu Fan at a glance, opened his mouth and hit him Say hello.

Xu Fan looked around back and forth, and finally looked at the fat black man, "Isn't it the season to catch mullet? I'm here to ask for some benefits for the elderly at home."

"Mr. Xu is so righteous." The fat black man wiped the fishy smell from his hands with his apron, and said with admiration while holding his thumb in his right hand.

"This is all as it should be. There is no such thing as high righteousness or not high righteousness." Xu Fan lightly stopped and said flatly.

"Hey, let me tell you, Mr. Xu, don't be modest. In this Wutou town, who doesn't know that you helped support the parents of the brother-in-law. In this world, there are not many capable and good people like you. It's gone." A short man next to the fat black man shouted exaggeratedly.

Xu Fan didn't respond when he heard the words, but just smiled faintly.

"However, this is not a coincidence. The number of black-headed snakeheaded fish is getting smaller every year, and it is becoming more and more difficult to catch." The fat black man sighed and said sullenly.

"Isn't it? The government said that there will be a whole fishing moratorium, and fishing will not be allowed for several years." The short man shook his head and said helplessly.

Fishing off season? !

Xu Fan was startled when he heard this, it seemed that it was time to leave.

Then Xu Fan walked around the fish market again, but he didn't even buy a black-headed black fish.

From the fishmonger's few words, it seems that the black-headed black fish has been favored by the imperial court and has become a tribute, and eight out of ten must be offered.

Coupled with the fact that the catch is getting less and less, blackhead blackfish that can be circulated in the fish market are bought at high prices almost instantly.

It is no longer possible to easily buy blackhead blackfish this year like in previous years.

Xu Fan was not disappointed either, he bought two herrings casually, threw them in the bamboo basket and left leisurely.

As soon as he left, the fishmongers behind him started talking.

"This Mr. Xu is really kind-hearted. He has such a brother-in-law on the stall, and he also supports his parents."

"I heard that Mr. Xu's parents and his adoptive brother's parents were sworn brothers. They agreed that if they were men and women, they would become husband and wife, and if they were of the same sex, they would become brothers and sisters."

"If this is the case, then the parents of the adoptive brother can be regarded as Mr. Xu's adoptive father and adoptive mother, and they should be supported."

"Bah, bah, bah! How can you say that, do you know that his brother-in-law is a demon who believes in demon gods? No matter how good the relationship is, it doesn't matter if it's just this one."

"Demon god? Oh my god! Mr. Xu still supports his adoptive father and mother? If this gets involved... is he going to die?"

"That's not true. The government conducted a thorough investigation that year, and the righteous brother's belief in demon gods had nothing to do with his parents. Even so, the government confiscated all the property."

"It is said that the two old people are already a little stupid/stupid, they only know how to eat and drink, and they are completely stupid."

"If it weren't for Mr. Xu's nostalgia for the past, those two old people who are a little bit stupid/stupid would have starved to death long ago."

"Yes, such kindness. Even your own children may not be able to do it."

.........

…………

Xu Fan didn't care what the fishmonger behind him was saying.

He still walked unhurriedly.

Walking to the edge of a wine shop, he drank a pot of green plum wine and pinned it to his waist, then turned and walked back.

Every trip is like a pleasure.

Xu Fan cherishes this kind of enjoyment, so every time he walks very slowly.

Only when he gradually walks out of the crowd and the bustling scene, will he speed up his pace a little.

Xu Fan lived very close to Qianmei Mountain, but it was the most remote corner of Wutou Town.

This is the real estate owned by his righteous brother in name.

But at this time, the property had already belonged to Xu Fan's name.

The house is in the style of an ordinary courtyard house, with one wing room on the left and one side, and three main rooms in the middle, but it is not too small.

A tall locust tree is planted in the middle of the yard, and beside the locust tree is a large tank filled with water, in which there are two red and white goldfish, and a purple lotus floating on the water. .

The courtyard seemed very ordinary, but it was inexplicably chilly.

Xu Fan opened the door, entered the courtyard, and closed the door behind his back.

The sound seemed to startle the goldfish, and several waves rolled up on the water surface of the big tank, but surprisingly, not a single drop of water splashed out.

Xu Fan, who looked gentle and elegant at first, turned cold and expressionless at the moment.

He walked to the side of the locust tree and took out the herring from the bamboo basket.

Gently scratched the herring's body surface with his right hand, and the herring, which was still alive and kicking, suddenly fell silent, and the dark/red fish blood slowly oozes from that scratch.

Xu Fan didn't even look at it, and threw the herring at the root of the locust tree.

The blood of the fish flowed out and penetrated into the roots of the locust tree.

The ground trembled slightly, and several tentacles stretched out from the soil, pulling the bleeding herring into the soil.

Everything is back to normal.

The goldfish in the big tank next to it seemed to be getting more and more irritable, and the water in the big tank was rolled into a whirlpool.

The water was gurgling/gurgling, but not a drop of water could splash out across the big tank.

As if being shackled by some invisible force.

Xu Fan frowned.

Then he took off the jug attached to his waist, and poured water with the mouth of the jug facing the purple lotus.

The wine is fragrant.

The petals of the lotus trembled a bit, and the purple was much clearer, making it more bright and beautiful.

Circles of water ripples spread out from the center of the lotus, instantly calming down the vortex of the water in the vat.

After a while, the two goldfish seemed to be fascinated by the smell of alcohol, and gradually became motionless.

The vortex disappears, the fish sinks, and everything is back to normal.

In the courtyard, it was completely quiet.

Looking up at the leaves of the locust tree, they were as dark green as ink, but seemed to have a tinge of red, Xu Fan shook his head slightly, as if he was not very satisfied.

After all, this herring was not as good as that mullet, it was far worse, so it could barely handle it.

He sighed softly, picked up the jug and bamboo basket, and walked towards the main room.

After entering the room, Xu Fan casually put the wine pot and bamboo basket aside, but put three sticks of incense on the portrait in the middle of the room.

The portrait was hung on the front of the entrance, very conspicuous.

Looking closely, the characters in this painting seem somewhat similar to Xu Fan.

Silver hair and black clothes, sitting alone on the reef, playing with a bamboo and a whale, wild and unrestrained.

Shocking waves, not disturbing heart dust, dark clouds covering the sun, not reducing madness.

This is a very personable character.Eye-catching, unforgettable.

The incense was lit, and there was little smoke.

In this blurred smoke, Xu Fan looked at the person in the painting and whispered.

"Today is probably the last stick of incense, and I have to leave tomorrow."

"Since I have your child's body, then I will take over the karma. —— Don't worry, if that is really your child's wish..."

The voice murmured, gradually becoming inaudible.

After a while, Xu Fan entered the room from the side.

After passing the foyer, there is the atrium.

The atrium is also a small courtyard, but it is much smaller than the courtyard outside.

There are grape trellises inside, and the greenery looks very shady.

The surrounding area is a bit overgrown with weeds, and it looks a bit barren.

There is a stone well beside the grape shelf.

On the edge of the stone well, one can see stone ditches drawn out by ropes. This stone well is obviously not young.

Vaguely, the sound of rushing water could be heard coming from the well.

This is obviously a living well, and there is obviously a dark river below.

Xu Fan walked to the side of Ishii, and quickly made a mark with both hands.

The white jade ring on the middle finger of the right hand exudes a faint light.

A faint white light shot straight from the ring, down to the bottom of the well.

Xu Fan didn't pause, and followed Bai Guang directly into the stone well.

It went dark for a moment, then brightened again.

When Xu Fan saw everything in front of him clearly again, he had already changed places.

Not the bottom of a well, but a stone room without a door.

Even though he had been in and out many times, Xu Fan was still surprised.

This kind of unimaginable, this kind of wonder that cannot be achieved by human beings has always shaken Xu Fan's heart.

Touching the ring on the middle finger of his right hand, Xu Fan chuckled.

Longing for?Longing!

Since yearning, one day, he will really enter this world.

He firmly believes!

The white light covering Xu Fan's body gradually dissipated, and he turned to look behind him.

On the top of the stone room, there were several white beads emitting gleaming white light. Although the light was slightly dim, it did not prevent Xu Fan from seeing everything in front of him clearly.

Two gray-haired old men sat quietly on two stone chairs, but the hatred bursting out of their eyes was enough to chill the heart of the timid.
