Sword comes

Chapter 425 Revisiting the old place, beautiful water and high wind

After Zhu Lian found out that Chen Pingan took advantage of Yujian to return to the plank road, he felt a little bit different.

It was a mysterious and mysterious feeling.

It was only after spending time with Chen Ping'an that Zhu Lian was able to realize this similar subtle change, just like the spring breeze wrinkled the water in the pond and made ripples.

Chen Ping asked Pei Qian, who had been waiting for a long time, to go to bed first, and asked Zhu Lian to drink together for the first time. The two sat cross-legged on the cliff outside the plank road. Zhu Lian asked with a smile: "It seems that the young master is a little happy because Yu Jian It feels so good to travel far”

Chen Ping asked back: "Do you still remember Cao Ci?"

Zhu Lian said with a smile: "This name, how can I forget this name? On the side of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, the young master has lost three games in a row. The person who can convince the young master to lose, the old slave can't wait to meet tomorrow, and then Kill him with one or two punches and pull him down, so as not to compete with the young master for world martial arts in the future, and delay the young master's entry into the legendary No.11 realm, the Martial God realm."

Chen Pingan didn't care about Zhu Lian's flattery and jokes, and drank leisurely, "I don't know if it's an illusion, Cao Ci may have broken through again."

Zhu Lian asked strangely: "Then why does the young master still feel happy to be number one in the world, but it can't fit two people's buttocks. Of course, it's too early for the young master and that Cao Ci to say this."

Chen Pingan took a sip of the coveted wine of Laojiao in Yangjian Gourd, and asked: "You said that we are pure martial artists, practicing boxing and learning martial arts, why?"

Zhu Lian smiled and said: "Naturally, it is to obtain great relief and great freedom. If you encounter anything you want to do, you can do it, and if you encounter something you don't want to do, you can say no to it. Every No.1 in the world, although there are some differences in their respective pursuits, but in this general direction, they all lead to the same goal. On the right side of the Sui Dynasty, Lu Baixiang, Wei Xian, and I, Zhu Lian, are the same. It’s just that Ouhua Fudi is a small In this place, everyone does not have a deep feeling for immortality, even if we are already standing at the highest place in the world, we will not think too much about it, because we never know that there is a sky, and the Haoran world is much stronger than us Yes. Fangxian asked, on this point, among the four of us, Wei Xian has gone the farthest relative to each other. As an emperor, if he shouts long live to his courtiers and people, he will think long live long live."

Chen Ping pointed to himself, "I didn't tell you too much about the early years. I first practiced boxing because someone interrupted the Changsheng Bridge. I had to rely on boxing to hang my life, so I persisted. It was agreed that I would carry the sword cast by Ruan Qiong on my back, and go to Daoxuan Mountain to give the sword to Miss Ning. After I walked a long, long way, I finally reached Daoxuan Mountain, and I was about to punch 100 million punches. At that time , In fact, deep down in my heart, I naturally have some doubts. When I no longer need to practice boxing to survive, I, Chen Pingan, am not the kind of person who likes to compete with others for the first place. What should I do next?"

"It's not difficult to become the next Zhuhe, and it's not too difficult to be the next Song Yushao of the Shushui Kingdom. It's better to punch one million more punches, and you can expect to be a martial artist with a golden body. You know, I was in the The Great Wall of Sword Qi is the place with the most sword cultivators in the world. Where I live, a few steps away, there lives in a thatched hut the oldest and most senior sword fairy on the Great Wall of Sword Qi. There are also words carved by Ah Liang, do you think I will not want to switch to sword practice?"

"That's why I was so eager to rebuild the Changsheng Bridge at that time. I even thought, since I can't multi-task with one mind, should I just give up practicing boxing and try my best to become a sword repairer, raise a natal flying sword, and finally become a sword master?" The veritable Sword Immortal Dajianxian thought very much, but I didn’t dare to tell Miss Ning about this kind of thing. I was afraid that she would think that I was not a single-minded person. So, will it be the same for her?"

Zhu Lian took a big sip of wine, "The old slave met the young master too late, and even missed the youthful sorrow that the young master may not have in the future. I must take a sip of wine to pour out my regret."

Chen Ping raised his head, embraced the Yangjian gourd with both hands, patted it lightly, and said with a smile: "At that time, I met Cao Ci. So I am very grateful to him, but I am embarrassed to say it."

Chen Ping pointed to himself again, and then pointed to the high mountain cliff opposite the plank road, "Cao Ci may be over there, I'm far behind. Although I don't deliberately pursue the first martial arts, but I I'm not a fool, whoever wants to be the first of course wants to be the first, but I just want to be slower, just like I was walking the railing in the Zangbao Building of Ziyang Mansion before, I was thinking about a slow word, I figured it out Many things, if you go back to the source, in fact, I came into contact with this word when I was an apprentice in the dragon kiln and learned to cast. Old man Yao disliked my lack of talent, and was never willing to teach me the truth, and he didn't even like to talk to me , but at that time I regarded kiln firing as the foundation of my future life. What should I do? If old man Yao doesn’t teach, then I will listen to his speeches with Liu Xianyang and other apprentices. Old man Yao will talk to them Only when the heart is fixed can the hand be steady, and then it can change from slow and error-free to fast and correct. Logically speaking, it seems that I should have known this truth a long time ago. I have traveled a long way, met many people, and have many truths that I don’t have long legs. Only then can I live in my heart like Mao Shanzhu said, and the truth is my own.

"When Cao Ci appeared, I knew it. It turned out that among my peers, there was not only Ma Kuxuan, but also Cao Ci. No matter how dazzling Cao Ci was, I would never hate him or be jealous of Cao Ci. I was a little disappointed, beside my beloved girl, in front of her, losing three games to others, of course I would feel a little unhappy, so at that time, I made up my mind, one day, regardless of Cao Ci's future martial arts realm No matter how tall he is, how can outsiders say that he is a martial arts embryo that has never been seen before or since, I will try to make him lose three games in a row

Chen Ping'an looked calm, his eyes sparkled, "Only above boxing"

Zhu Lian slapped his thigh, "Young master's ambition is so strong, so majestic and lofty."

Chen Ping patted the sword gourd, looked at the opposite mountain wall, and said with a smile: "I'm talking drunk."

Zhu Lian thought that he was the most comfortable with style, and the least likely to spoil the scenery. After a jar of new wine was sealed and put away, it was just waiting for it. There was no reason to open it quickly and smell it again.So Zhu Lian

Started to change the subject, "The young master seems to be worried about something along the way."

Chen Pingan nodded, "You are also paying attention to the situation of Dali, so it's not surprising that Xiuhu, the master of the Ming Dynasty, is busy planning and collecting nets elsewhere, why does Cui Dongshan appear in the cliff academy?"

Zhu Lian asked: "The supernatural powers of the upper five realms are unimaginable. It's not surprising that the soul is separated. Isn't there a Shi Rou who lives in the slough of a fairy beside us?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "Cui Chan and Cui Dongshan are already two people, and they have begun to walk on different roads. Then, how do you think two people with the same heart and temperament will get along in the future?"

Zhu Lian said with a smile: "With Cui Dongshan's temper, except for the young master, he will never bow down to anyone, not even himself."

Chen Pingan murmured: "Then how would he play chess with himself when he played the colorful cloud spectrum?"

Zhu Lian began to frown, with a solemn expression, and turned to look at Chen Pingan.

Chen Pingan nodded, "I guess, I'm the chessboard. The two of them may have started playing chess since we arrived at Old Dragon City."

Chen Ping stretched out a finger, and drew a staggered horizontal and vertical lines, "The criss-crossing places are large ones, such as Qingluan Kingdom, and the Cliff Academy, and small ones, such as the Lion Garden, go to any place in the Sui Dynasty. A fairy family ferry, and the Ziyang mansion we passed by recently, are all possible."

Zhu Lian asked: "Cui Dongshan shouldn't have harmed the young master, right?"

Chen Pingan shook his head, "He has been trying his best to help me, there is no need to doubt that."

Zhu Lian couldn't help standing up, his body was hunched, and he said in a deep voice: "This is not a trivial matter."

Chen Pingan was still sitting, shaking the Yangjian gourd lightly, "Of course it's not a trivial matter, but it's okay. I've come to the bigger calculations and the more powerful chess games."

Zhu Lian walked slowly, rubbing the palms of his hands together, "I have to think about it."

Chen Pingan comforted him in turn: "Don't worry, it won't involve life and death, so it can't be a life-and-death battle of fists to the flesh, and it won't be the kind of death situation where Du Mao suddenly appeared in the old dragon city."

Zhu Lian thought for a while, and frowning, "This is getting more and more difficult, isn't it possible that the old slave can't exert half of his strength, and when the time comes, staring at the side will not suffocate the old slave."

Chen Pingan looked at the opposite cliff, straightened his waist, and clasped the back of his head with his hands, "It doesn't matter, just take one step at a time. There is no reason to be afraid of going home."

Zhu Lian looked at Chen Pingan's side face, "It's a big heart for the soldiers to cover the young master with water and earth."

Chen Pingan sighed for no reason, "If you know more about the truth, your mind will get confused occasionally."

Chen Ping bent down, put his palms on top of each other, and put his palms against the top of the Yangjian gourd, "The vertical and horizontal lines on the chessboard are just rules. Rules and principles are dead, straight and straight, but the way of the world will make these straight lines It becomes crooked, and the line in some people's hearts may even turn into a crooked circle. There are also many people who talk to themselves, and they can live a good life, because they can feel at ease and settled down, and even have fewer constraints than people who can abide by the rules. How to live, just do it according to your heart, as for how it looks like It makes sense, so that I can live a more peaceful life, or use this to cover up, so that I can live a better life. There are so many books, so many books, just find a few words in the book, temporarily put what I want The truth, just borrow it and use it, if there is any difficulty, it is not difficult at all."

Zhu Lian let out a long sigh.

Sitting next to Chen Pingan again, putting down the jug that had been drunk without knowing it, Zhu Lian propped his fists on his knees, the hunched and thin old man looked a little sad.

These heartfelt words, Chen Pingan and Sui Youyou, Wei Xian and Lu Baixiang said that most of the three of them would not be too involved. Sui Youyou's sword heart is clear and focused on the sword. Lu Baixiang is also the founder of the Demon Cult in Ouhua Blessed Land.In fact, it's even more interesting to talk to Zhu Lian.

Zhu Lian seems to be heartless, big and small, all of them are nosy, never worrying about me.But Zhu Lian was the one among the four who had seen the most variety of human beings in Ouhua Blessed Land.

Born in a wealthy family with hairpin tassels for generations, he knows the true taste of wealth and honor in the world. He has met emperors, generals and ministers at close range. , participated in the imperial examination, and won the first place in the second class easily. It was the elder of the family who served as the teacher and an important minister of the central government. Lian is the most prestigious handsome man in the capital. A calligraphy, an article, or a trip to the spring will attract the hearts of many women from aristocratic families. As a result, Zhu Lian has been a noble Sandan official for a few years, and then finds a From the beginning, a person went to study abroad for thousands of miles, but he was actually traveling in mountains and rivers, patted his buttocks, and went to the rivers and lakes.

Mixing things together, an unrestrained noble son somehow became No. 1 in the world, and by the way, he became the hurdle that countless martial arts fairies and heroines couldn't get over.

Afterwards, the countries fought in chaos, and the mountains and rivers were broken. Zhu Lian withdrew from the rivers and lakes and returned to his family, and joined the battlefield, becoming a Confucian general who turned out to be born. During his six-year military career, Zhu Lian only used the art of war, not martial arts, to turn the tide. An overturned building has been supported for many years, but it is just the trend of the times. Even if Zhu Lian devotes himself to assisting a prince for several years and presides over the government by himself, he still cannot change the ending of Guozuo. After Zhu Lian finally settled the family, he returned to the world again , always alone.

According to Zhu Lian's own statement, when he was 50 to [-] years old, he was still suave and suave, with an old man's taste of wine, and he was still the "Zhu Lang" in the hearts of countless cardamom girls.

Chen Pingan said: "Next, we will pass by a mansion where a female ghost sits in town. There is a plaque with beautiful mountains and rivers hanging on it. I plan to just take you with me and let Shi Rou take Pei Qian to bypass that hill and go directly to a place called The place in Red Candle Town is waiting for us."

Zhu Lian was eager to try, and asked with a smile: "Well, the young master mentioned this before, but he didn't elaborate on it at the time. Now it seems that it is dangerous, but not a big danger."

Chen Pingan nodded, "There lived a female ghost in a wedding dress in that mansion. Back then, Bao Ping and I passed by, and we had some festivals, so I wanted to settle it."

Zhu Lian suddenly said: "It's no wonder the young master recently asked Shi Rou in detail about some of the natal spells of the ghosts and ghosts. He kept walking and stopping, just to nourish his energy, and wrote so many yellow paper talismans."

Chen Ping suddenly raised his palm, "Shut up."

Zhu Lian felt resentful, as expected of his own young master, he understood himself.

Last time, I didn't ask the young master about the appearance of the female ghost in the wedding dress, whether she is beautiful or ugly, fat or thin, Zhu Lian has been itching all the time.

After all, in the Blessed Land of Ouhua, I have never admired myself from the beautiful female ghost who made her home in the tomb. How could I miss it when I came to Haoran Tianxia?

But the water goddess of the Baihu River is similar to Shi Rou, a god and a female ghost, and she doesn't seem to have taken a fancy to her. Zhu Lian rubbed her chin and said angrily: "Why, the women here, whether they are ghosts or ghosts God, everyone likes to judge people by their appearance."

Chen Ping picked up the Yangjian gourd, "Go one."

Zhu Lian glanced at the jug at his feet, and said with a bitter face, "Master, my jug is empty."

Zhu Lian licked his face and rubbed his hands, "Young master, don't worry about the old slave's drinking capacity. In Pei Qian's words, it's just a matter of drinking another pot. I just quenched my thirst. Two pots, slightly drunk, three pots, I'm happy."

Chen Ping smiled, opened his mouth wide, shook his head, made a movement of inhaling, then turned his head, gloated and said, "Go and drink the northwest wind."

Zhu Lian held back for a long time, intending to be a loyal minister who remonstrated with death, instead of being a flattering and sycophantic, he said righteously: "Master, such a bad joke, it's really hard for this old servant to flatter me."

Chen Ping's mind moved slightly, he took out a pot of wine from the things close at hand, threw it to Zhu Lian, and asked, "Zhu Lian, what kind of person do you think I am?"

Zhu Lian took the wine and said without thinking, "Good man."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "This wine is not for nothing."

Zhu Lian shook his head and said, "Even without this jug of wine, it's the same."

Chen Pingan said to himself: "I am a good person."

Zhu Lian laughed heartily, "Master, you just think I'm flattering again, don't take it seriously. Drink and drink."

An old man who lives in a famous restaurant, and a young man with mud legs in a back alley, both of them actually didn't care about the distinction between master and servant, and drank wine slowly by the cliff.

Zhu Lian wiped his mouth and said suddenly: "Master, this old slave will sing you a song from my hometown."

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Okay."

Zhu Lian hurriedly took a sip of the wine, moistened his throat, and then began to hum, shaking his head. It was the official language of a court that had long since perished in the Ouhua Blessed Land.

Chen Pingan naturally didn't understand, but Zhu Lian hummed leisurely and intoxicated, even if he didn't know the content, Chen Pingan still listened with special charm.

After Zhu Lian finished singing, he asked, "Master, how are you doing?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Not bad."

Zhu Lian shook the jug with half of the wine left, "If the young master can reward another jug, the old slave will sing it in Dali official dialect."

Without further ado, Chen Ping threw a pot to Zhu Lian.

Zhu Lian put the pot of wine aside, and hummed softly, "Chunxiao lights and candles are like human eyes. I saw the lady unbuttoning her buttons, twirling the knots with green fingers, her breasts were as white as peaks, her belly was soft, poor candlelight." I can't see it, the back is smooth and the waist is tied, and the big gourd is hung, little lady, thinking about the man who has traveled far and has not returned to her heart, her heart is like hitting a deer, and the heart is full of thousands of knots. The children complained, since a moment is worth a thousand gold, who will earn ten thousand taels?"

Zhu Lian stopped, took a sip of wine, and felt more enjoyable.

Chen Pingan asked: "This is the end."

Zhu Lian was very surprised, and said in a daze, "The young master didn't even intend to hit me."

Chen Ping sneered and said: "I have traveled so many rivers and lakes, I have seen the big world, what is this? I used to take a fairy family ferry on the Zoulonghe Road under the ground. Immortals fight, ha ha."

This is called hindsight, and it is actually attributed to Zhu Lian, and of course the long river of time in Ouhua Blessed Land.

Zhu Lian asked, "Talk about it."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Yes, but return the pot of wine to me first."

Zhu Lian hesitated for a moment, then handed the jug to Chen Pingan.

After Chen Ping received the money, "It was really a soul-stirring and tragic fight."

Zhu Lian waited for a long time, but did not wait for the next sentence, "No more"

Chen Pingan stood up, "Otherwise"

Zhu Lian hurriedly got up and followed Chen Pingan, "Master, it's just such a pitiful word to return the wine to me, it's like saying nothing, it's not worth a pot of wine"

Chen Ping ignored Zhu Lian.

On the plank road, a body turned over and walked upside down with a heaven and earth pile.

Zhu Lian stood where he was, very annoyed.Suddenly turning his head to look at Shi Rou who had forgotten to practice, Zhu Lian grinned.

Shi Rou opened her eyes and said angrily, "Go away!"

Zhu Lian raised his hand, picked up his orchid finger, and waved lightly at Shi Rou, "I hate it."

Shi Rou is disgusting.

Suddenly, after a glimpse, she was dumbfounded.

It turned out that Zhu Lian pressed one finger on the temple and made two movements, one tearing and the other covering, and stayed for a while.

The old man twitched the corners of his mouth at Shi Rou, then turned around, put his hands behind his back, hunched and walked slowly, and began to walk alone in the night.

There was only one ghost with the bones and bones of the past who seemed to have seen a ghost.

In the distance Zhu Lian clicked his tongue and said, "What do you mean?"

After walking the plank road and passing the border between Nanyuan Kingdom and Dali Dynasty, Chen Pingan and Zhu Lian were walking on the mountain road between majestic mountains.

Shi Rou has already taken Pei Qian to detour, and will follow the Xiuhua River to Hongzhu Town, where the two sides will meet.It's just that Chen Ping asked Shi Rou to carry Pei Qian on his back so that he could display supernatural powers, so if nothing unexpected happened, Shi Rou and Pei Qian must have arrived in that red candle town earlier.

Chen Pingan smiled and talked about an old story. It was on this mountain road that year that he met three masters and apprentices. A crippled young man was carrying a dilapidated flag that "subdues demons, catches ghosts, and defends the way". As a result, they became brothers and sisters, and the ghost in the wedding dress captured the mansion where countless red lanterns were hung.Fortunately, both parties were safe and sound in the end. At the time of parting, the shabby old Taoist priest also sent a picture of searching mountains handed down by his master. However, the three masters and apprentices passed by Longquan County, but they did not stay in the small town. Over there, they met Miss Ruan Xiu, and finally continued northward to Dali Capital City, saying that they were going there to try their luck.

He deliberately chose a time to climb the mountain at twilight. After walking to the mountain path where the ghost hit the wall, Chen Pingan stopped and looked around, but there was nothing unusual.

Chen Pingan carried the sword fairy and the bamboo box on his back, and felt that he was half a scholar.

But the ghost in the wedding dress was unmoved, which is also normal. Back then, the Fengxue Temple Wei Jin broke the sky with a sword, and the hero Xu Ruo appeared on the stage. The ghost in the wedding dress must have suffered a lot, but now she is not quite so good. Dare to indiscriminately harm passing scholars.

Chen Pingan thought for a while, and said to Zhu Lian: "Go to the high place in the sky and see if you can see the mansion, but I guess it is unlikely, there must be a blindfold."

Zhu Lian rose from the ground and traveled far and wide as a martial artist, just like that, he can go anywhere in the world.

After a while, Zhu Lian returned to the path, shook his head and said, "I really can't see it, and I have to waste two talismans, young master."

Chen Ping smiled and took out two talismans, the yang energy lighting talisman and the landscape breaking barrier talisman, which were drawn on yellow paper from the stack of talisman papers presented by Li Xisheng.

Pour the accumulated aura from the qi palace where the golden gallbladder is located in the body into one of the yang qi lighting talismans.

The flames are extremely small.

Chen Pingan skimmed up to the branches of the woods, circled around, carefully observed the burning speed and size of the flame on his fingertips, and finally determined a general direction.

Just relying on the guidance of the lamp-carrying talisman, I went to find the mountain and water barrier of the mansion, just like an ordinary master walking at night with a lantern in his hand to illuminate the road.

Finally, Chen Pingan came to a mountain wall, and the flames exploded suddenly. Chen Pingan flicked his wrist, and the talisman of the Shanshui Breaking Talisman was filled with spiritual energy, shining brightly. The scene then changed drastically. The mountain wall melted like snow when it met fire, and a palm-sized hole appeared. Through the hole, one could already see a gloomy valley path inside, with sinister energy constantly gushing out. out.

When the Shanshui Barrier Breaking Talisman was about to burn, the hole had become the size of a courtyard gate, and Chen Pingan and Zhu Lian stepped into it.

In the mountain depression surrounded by towering ancient trees, Chen Pingan still held the lantern talisman that still had more than half of its yang energy, and led Zhu Lian forward.

Zhu Lian couldn't touch the ground, and followed behind Chen Pingan.

Chen Pingan did not elaborate on the grievances with the ghost in the wedding dress.

But Zhu Lian had never seen Chen Pingan's true attachment to a "small matter" before.

In order to meet the ghost in the wedding dress, Chen Pingan made many arrangements and means in advance. Zhu Lian and Chen Pingan had experienced the accident of the old dragon city together, and felt that Chen Pingan was also very cautious in the dust drugstore, weighing everything, no matter how big or small, But the two are similar, but not all. For example, Chen Pingan seems to have been waiting for this day for a long time. When this day comes, Chen Pingan's mentality is rather weird, just like his fist in the shape of Zhu Lian's ape. In every big battle, before making a move, one must collapse and shrink, instead of the ordinary pure warrior's high spirits and fists pouring out.

The yang qi lighting talisman burned faster, when the last bit of ashes fell.

The two finally stood on a square, and in front of them was the majestic mansion that hung a plaque like "Xiu Shui Gao Feng" written by an immortal, and there were two huge stone lions at the door.

Chen Pingan narrowed his eyes and looked up at the plaque.

There used to be a female ghost in a bright red wedding dress floating there.

She is infatuated, she used to be a kind ghost, and she has always had her own reasons.

It is said that one of the earliest scholars who walked at night recited the poems of sages and sages aloud on the mountain road to strengthen his courage, and she saw it in his eyes.

The scholar and the female ghost have different yin and yang, but they still love each other, and she still put on the red wedding dress willingly.

Chen Ping twitched the corner of his mouth.

There is no difference between closeness and estrangement. This is what Chen Pingan himself said.

If you are unreasonable, do as you like, how to live and how to live better is your own path, but one day you meet someone who is reasonable and has harder fists than you, then you will have a better chance in your next life. Safe to say.

Chen Pingan

Zhu Lian couldn't help turning his head.

Even Zhu Lian, a warrior who traveled far away, felt a strange aura from Chen Ping'an.

This is the atmosphere of the Dzogchen of the Five Realms of Pure Wufu

Like the bright moon rising into the sky.

But this was nothing, Zhu Lian was more shocked by Chen Pingan's state of mind and momentum than this kind of thing that still belonged to the category of martial arts.

That bright moon is like a Lizhu held by a dragon.
