Sword comes

Chapter 966

This time, returning from the sea to the north, he roughly calculated the speed of the visitor from Luopo Mountain, so he was not in a hurry. Chen Pingan practiced the sword technique along the way, and his body turned into dozens of sword lights again and again. , above the blue waves, roaming the world in a way that almost ignores the long river of time. It's like a man without a border enters a land of no one.

After tens of thousands of repeated studies, Chen Pingan finally performed this escapism technique for the first time with Ning Yao at about the same level. Maybe this is called stupid birds flying first, and hard work can make up for one's clumsiness?

Resting temporarily on an island in the sea near the land of Aquarius Island, Chen Ping'an squatted on a tree branch, made a gesture of clasping his hands, and performed the water technique. .

Xiao Mo sat beside him, with his green bamboo stick across his knees, and said, "My lord is very talented."

Chen Ping angrily said with a smile: "Don't say a few unconscionable words, flattery is useless to me."

Xiao Mo said with a serious expression: "Under swordsmanship, the postures displayed by different sword cultivators are different, which is common sense. In other words, those who can absorb the most true meaning of Taoism from different swordsmanship are a kind of hidden genius, and practicing like this is called breaking barriers."

Chen Pingan was thoughtful, wiped the water on his face, shook his hands, "Talk a little more."

Xiao Mo continued: "The quality of a sword repairer's aptitude cannot be judged only by the speed at which he learns the sword at the initial stage. That's just the difference between genius and mediocrity in the general sense, and his cognition is still too shallow. For example, when Xiao Mo uses this sword skill, Naturally relaxed and comfortable, but in terms of his own swordsmanship, he has no progress and is of no benefit to the small world of the human body. This is not the case for the young master. This is another deep meaning of the swordsmanship "world". After all, swordsmanship is dead, but the sword holder is As a living person, let’s use an analogy, Xiao Mo accompanied the young master all the way to the north, using this sword technique is nothing more than using his own aura as a drink, as if drinking for himself, it will not increase the slightest pure sword intent, but a kind of consumption The movement of spiritual energy, the young master used it, but drinking water from outside the world, tempering his body and increasing his sword intent, and the stamina of sword cultivation comes from this. You, young master, and the Zongyuan of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, may They all belong to this kind of sword cultivator, full of tenacity, thick accumulation, as time goes by, the further you go, the more seamless the path becomes."

Chen Pingan nodded and smiled, "This statement is very thirst-quenching."

It seems that Xiaomo and Jia Laoshenxian seem to have different ways of chatting, but they belong to the same road and lead to the same goal.

Xiao Mo was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand to gently stroke the green bamboo stick, and said with emotion: "Many so-called dominant cultivating geniuses, the faster they learn, they will miss a lot. Maybe they can use more swordsmanship and supernatural powers to make up and cover up. , but one day, when standing outside the door, there is still a certain amount of Taoism that can be accommodated in the small world of every practitioner of Taoism. Then in the end, when the bottleneck comes, it will be difficult to reach the sky, and you will run into walls everywhere , will suffer a lot.”

"This is also Xiaomo, together with Bai Jing and Zhu Yan, why it was so smooth to enter the Ascension Realm, and why it was so difficult to break through the bottleneck of the Ascension Realm. Pursuing the realm that can be seen and touched, but ignoring the illusory matter of learning Taoism, and missing too many things that should be paid more attention to, because we don't believe in this from the bottom of our hearts, or we actually only believe in swordsmanship and Taoism. Don't believe in yourself."

There are both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the Ascension Realm monks in the wild world are recognized as the most lethal in several worlds.The downside is that the number of monster monks entering the fourteenth realm is always at a disadvantage compared to the human monks in the other three worlds.

Chen Pingan said: "The last sentence has a great meaning."

Xiao Mo said: "So whether we are using swordsmanship or shaking hands, it is all a kind of memory and retrospect, but this is not the case with Young Master and Zongyuan. The way forward, also depends on the time."

"Of course, compared to Bai Jing and me, Zhu Yan and Yang Zhi's aptitude for cultivation is inferior."

Chen Pingan said: "I will ask Cui Dongshan to tell Chai Wu and Sun Chunwang about your cultivation experience later. I believe it will be very useful."

Xiao Mo smiled and said: "I have already talked about this with Chai Wu's children on the Fengyuan Ferry before, and it seems that they have listened to it. It's just that this kind of empty theory may have to be combined with their own practice barriers. Only with a lot of personal experience and mutual verification of facts can we really chew and understand the truth."

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "No exception."

As the old saying goes, if you want to know the way up the mountain, you need to ask the person going down the mountain.

Damn, as expected, only geniuses can talk to geniuses.

Chen Ping smiled casually and said, "Maybe you will be able to reunite with your old friend Yang Zhi soon, because you made a big deal with me, you can regain your freedom at the Confucian Temple, and you will participate in the excavation of the Dadu in Tongyezhou one thing."

Xiaomo and Qingtong are not really old friends, they just met each other from afar, but Xiaomo and Yangzhi are old friends in the true sense.

Hearing the words, Xiao Mo turned his head to look at his young master, but couldn't see any expression or ripples in his heart, so Xiao Mo suppressed his doubts.

Chen Ping'an suddenly moved slightly, and immediately took out a talisman from his sleeve, and his smile brightened all of a sudden, his whole aura changed completely, as if he were a different person.

This made Xiaomo relieved.

The big talisman in Chen Ping's hand, the talisman paper was obtained from Wu Shuangjiang on the night sailing ship. At that time, Wu Shuangjiang presented Cui Dongshan and Jiang Shangzhen with a total of four "Jiangzhen Qinglu", which were invaluable. Daomen, the special talisman used to "invite Bai Yujing to teach", the rarity can be imagined.The method of drawing talismans is that Cui Dongshan took the method from the talisman and Yuxuan, and it is called "Xianfu". Only two people need to hold one, but if the distance between the two parties is too far, such as once crossing continents, it will be like a dry pen and light ink. Text content becomes extremely blurred.In addition, this kind of "letter from home", there is a lot of lag in sending and receiving letters.The text presented by the talisman is a kind of "ghost painting talisman" created by Cui Dongshan. Now only Chen Pingan has read that booklet, so even if this talisman falls into the hands of others, he still reads the "Book of Heaven".

Chen Ping put away the talisman, got up and said with a smile: "Xiaomo, I have to go back to Xiandu Mountain. I need to see an elder. I am in a hurry. I need to use the Sanshan talisman. You just go back to Luopo Mountain and wait for me." .”

When we left Zhenyao Tower together earlier, Qingtong discovered the clue. Chen Pingan held the three-mountain talisman to cross the mountains and rivers, but he could not consume his own sinful virtue. It is the same as the auspicious language on the red envelope given by the old scholar.Chen Pingan had a rough estimate based on his last return to Xiandu Mountain. If he didn't cross continents, he could use it eight times.If transcontinental, at most three times.And Xiao Mo has learned the Three Mountain Talisman, so it is not appropriate to use it up three times early.So Chen Pingan planned to return to Qingping Jianzong alone.

Xiao Mo looked hesitant, and said, "Let me accompany you, Young Master?"

Chen Ping said with a smile: "It takes only three incense sticks in total. During the period, I chose two familiar mountains, Taiping Mountain and Pushan Mountain. Don't worry about any problems. After returning to Luopo Mountain, I will still use the Three Mountain Talisman. It is estimated that we will arrive in Huaihuang County around the same time as you."

I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you, Xiaomo!

Xiaomo thought for a while, nodded and said: "I will stop here, climb up and look at the vicinity of the two mountains of Tongyezhou. If there is any accident, you just need to sacrifice the flying sword. With the sword light, I will arrive immediately , After the three incense burns, I will continue on my way and hurry back to Luopo Mountain. In fact, you don’t have to hurry too much. With Mr. Zhu on the mountain, it’s probably not a big problem for you to return later.”

Chen Pingan nodded vigorously: "It must be no problem."

Xiao Mo asked curiously: "Which senior is the guest of Qingping Sword Sect, worthy of such solemnity?"

Because whether it was the last celebration of the establishment of the sect in Luoba Mountain or the establishment of the next sect of Qingping Sword Sect, there are actually very few people who can really make the owner of the mountain, Chen Pingan, show up to entertain guests in person, even those with a foreign surname in Longhu Mountain. Tianshi Liang Shuang, such an old fairy on the mountain, or a master of martial arts like Pushan Ye Yunyun, a boxing town in Banzhou, Chen Pingan did not deliberately show how warm, so the old general Yao Zhen of the Daquan Dynasty, It may be the only exception. Before that, Chen Pingan made a special trip to leave Xiandu Mountain and found the Daquan ferry that traveled north.

As for Liu Jinglong, Zhong Kui, and Zhang Shanfeng, these few have a very good relationship with Chen Pingan, and they are regarded as peers, so they don't care about each other.

Chen Pingan smiled and said, "It's that senior Song from Jingling Mountain Temple in Baopingzhou."

Xiao Mo suddenly realized, it turned out to be the case, no wonder the young master would be so motivating, even directly consuming the Sanshan Talisman twice.

Through the ear-reporting god Xiaomi Mili, I learned that on the way to the Great Wall of Sword Qi for the first time, the young master once met a senior in the world who liked to eat hot pot and went out to check the calendar.

On top of the talisman, the letter from Cui Dongshan is very simple. Song Yushao from the Shushui Kingdom visited Qingping Jianzong. He heard that the master was not on the mountain.

The immortals on the mountain proclaim immortality, possess beauty, and can even revert to a child when they are in the fairyland, and choose an appearance that matches a certain "age".

But the aging of old people in the world is irreversible. The next time young people go down the mountain and go to the rivers and lakes, some old people may no longer be in the rivers and lakes.

Originally, Chen Pingan planned to return to Aquarius Island this time. In addition to receiving Bai Jing, he would go to three places, Jingling Mountain, Xianyou County, and Yuzhang County Logging Yard in Hongzhou.

These three places are definitely going to be, and when going on a long trip, except for the logging yard, the other two places plan to stay longer and stop coming and going in such a hurry.

Holding the Three Mountain Talisman, Chen Pingan appeared directly at the gate of Taiping Mountain.

On the other side of the ruins of the ancestral hall on the top of the mountain, a bright sword light lit up for a long time, and the sword energy soared into the sky.

This is Huang Ting's way of doing things, it's tantamount to telling the many fairy houses on the mountain tops in the north of Yizhou that anyone who dares to attack Taiping Mountain will ask her for a sword.

According to the rules, Chen Pingan lit three sticks of mountain incense at the foot of the mountain to pay respect to the unmasked Mr. Sanshan Jiuhou.

Previously in Zhenyao Tower, Qingtong leaked the secret. In ancient times, there were only four candidates for the "Ten Heroes of the World", and among them was Mr. Sanshan Jiuhou who was the originator of the world's talisman.

Chen Ping raised his head and glanced at the sky, there was an ancient sword hanging in the air, the sword energy hung in the air like a slender snow-white waterfall, pouring down on the top of Taiping Mountain, condensed and lingering.

If Huang Ting sacrificed a natal flying sword and wanted to create an atmosphere of the same scale, it would be too exhausting of her mind, and it is destined not to last long.

This object seems to be an ancient relic saber that Huang Ting brought back from Wucai Tianxia. According to Huang Ting, it was randomly picked up from an unknown secret place of mountains and rivers.

It belongs to the immortal soldier who has a spirit and takes the initiative to recognize the master. Huang Ting was just joining in the fun at the time, but as a result, this ancient sword of the rank of the immortal soldier went to Huang Ting's side on the pole, and she could not accept it.

This is of course a completely different scene from Chen Pingan's "leaving his hometown" with such a large caisson on his back at the Luzhou Xianfu site in Beiju.

It's no wonder that Jiang Shang is really lucky, Huang Ting's fortune is deep, and he will be hailed as the two wonders of Tongyezhou.

What's more, the disciple Huang Ting took from Wucai Tianxia was also her founding disciple, and that little girl was the first "native" born in the new world.

Huang Ting's unintentional move was something that Cui Dongshan and some members of the Yin-Yang family had premeditated and worked hard to find.

On the Taiping Mountain side, there are currently only the owner of the mountain, Huang Ting, and two enshrined, Yu Lingshan and the one with the Taoist name "Longmen".

Even Tan Yingzhou left his master behind and chose to take the Tongyin ferry with Zheng Youqian, and travel to Pushan with Ye Yunyun and the others.

Chen Pingan walked to the top of the mountain and found an extra fairy house made of white jade. The second entrance to the courtyard should be the work of a fairy.

Yu Lingshan was sitting on the steps of the door, seeing the green shirt, he just smiled and clasped his fists. Chen Ping clasped his fists in return, crossed the threshold, and found Huang Tinghe busy in the house, an antique table, covered with It is the many files and files that Huang Ting took out from a nearby object, as well as a copy of the landscape genealogy of the Patriarch Hall. Colorful World, returning to her hometown this time requires her to re-clarify the boundaries of the Taiping Mountains. Some vassal hills whose landscape titles belonged to Taiping Mountains in the past, or they have established their own houses and re-delivered the titles with the local court that has restored the state. Either the flowers will fall to another family, and they will be replaced by a group of Immortal Mansion sects that have opened up the mountains and established their own ancestral halls. After that, Huang Ting will need to contact them one by one.

Chen Ping was standing at the door, Huang Ting raised his head, and said angrily: "I am the chief guest of Qingping Sword Sect, and you will soon be our registered enshrined priest of Taiping Mountain, and you are not an outsider, so what are you taboo about. "

Only then did Chen Pingan move a chair and sit beside Xianren Guo. The two hit it off, and there was no need for polite greetings, just nodding.

Huang Ting leaned against the back of the chair, rubbed his temples with his hands, and said with a headache, "If it wasn't for Guo Guo's help, I would have been blinded. I don't know how the year of the monkey can really rebuild the Patriarch Hall. The mountain guard at our door is also a poor man."

Yu Lingshan didn't take it seriously either, he laughed and said, "I'm so ashamed and ashamed."

Huang Ting is so good-looking, every frown and smile is coquettish, everything she says is right.

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Those who are capable will work harder. There are senior Longmen who sit here and plan strategies. The resumption of incense in Taiping Mountain is just around the corner."

Huang Ting smiled and looked at this young patriarch who is the next sect, and it is also a registered offering, Chen Shanzhu, why don't you express it?

Chen Pingan said with interest: "I have already written a booklet, but there are still many details that need to be supplemented by Cui Dongshan. I believe it will be sent here in a few days."

Huang Ting nodded, he didn't realize his worries until the situation was approaching, and she needed to do everything by herself to know how difficult it was to be a competent mountain owner.

Chen Ping picked up an account book on the table, flipped through it casually, and asked casually: "Huang Ting, I'm still the same as before. If you need fairy money, there are still a lot of ready-made Guyu money in the account of Luobashan. You can borrow it." The money is given to you, and the interest is calculated, so it’s not for nothing.”

According to Jiang Shangzhen's estimation, if Taiping Mountain wants to restore [-]% of its peak weather in the past, even if it is only [-]%, it will take about three or four thousand grain rain coins to fill the hole in the spiritual energy of thousands of miles of mountains, rivers, heaven and earth.The Luoposhan treasury took out about [-] Guyu coins in one go. It was not a big problem.

Huang Ting shook his head, pointed to the close thing on the table, and said with a smile: "It's fine to borrow money. The money is easy to repay, but the debt of favor is hard to repay. There are some treasures in this close thing. You should open it first and take a look." , I found them all from the Wucai Tianxia. There are all kinds of messy things. I am not proficient in the identification of treasures. It’s been a while, looking back, it’s like walking through two ancient secret realms for nothing. I blame myself for this. When you go down the mountain, you might as well bring something close to you and sell it for help. Now the land of Tongye, Baoping and Fuyao Sanzhou Anyway, there is a shortage of these, and the goods are in short supply. Chen Shanzhu is famous for having many friends on the mountain. Afterwards, all the profits will be [-]% to me and [-]% to you. How? For example, [-]%? Anyway, I don’t care how to kill pigs or take advantage of them, the higher the selling price, the more Chen Shanzhu’s share will be.”

Chen Pingan had nothing to be pretentious about, and put that close thing into his sleeve, "

Then it's settled, [-]% belongs to me.Just don't worry, I'll help you set a high price.After the matter is completed, return this thing and divide the account in ninety-one. "

Yu Lingshan joked, "Chen Yinguan is planning to kill him?"

Chen Pingan stood up, shook his sleeves, moved the armchair back to its original position, and said with a smile, "I'm very familiar with Fellow Daoist Lushan."

Yu Lingshan immediately shut up.

Chen Pingan clasped his fists to say goodbye, and he stood up suddenly, "I want to have a chat with Mr. Chen."

Huang Ting looked at the files on the table alone, and lamented that he had to quickly find a suitable candidate for suzerain, he was really not good at handling these matters.

Chen Pingan took Yu to the negative mountain for a walk together.

Chen Pingan said: "Fellow Mountain Daoist, the excavation of Dadu in the middle of Tongyezhou may require you to get out of your busy schedule and divert the diversion of many rivers and tributaries. Water, it’s justified, and there will be no objection.”

Although Yu Lingshan is not familiar with general affairs, he still has a lot of sophistication, and said: "I'm busy, Mr. Yinguan didn't see it. Taiping Mountain is one of the initiators of the excavation of Dadu. It is emotional and reasonable. I won't even shirk the slightest bit, and I will go to Jianghuajiao later. I would like to trouble you to calculate a price for this great incense. I have the same temper as Huang Ting, it's okay to owe money, but don't owe favors, the ugly thing is, I don't have any wealth at the moment, so I can pay back as much as I want, and you can help me with the rest, and make up for it in the future. Anyway, I personally owe you Qingping Sword Sect, not on Mount Taiping."

Chen Pingan nodded with a smile, "Going out of the mountain to help excavate Dadu, fellow Daoist of Bearing Mountain can be regarded as paying debts with work, I will help to settle this account, and fellow Daoist of Bearing Mountain can familiarize himself with the mountains and rivers along the main river of Dadu in advance, Kill two birds with one stone.”

Yu Lingshan asked: "Is this planned by the Yin officials long ago?"

Chen Pingan complained: "How can it be said that it is a calculation, it seems that I have bad intentions, and fellow Daoist Lushan is also suspected of being killed."

Unexpectedly, Yu Lingshan used a tactic of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred, saying: "If I had a better brain, why would I hide in a small place all these years for refuge, guarding a shop to eat and wait for death? It's not surprising that a pig was killed by the scheming official Chen Yin."

Yu Lingshan didn't give Chen Pingan a chance to blame himself with strange words, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left after talking about the business.

As the sun sets, it's like someone set a big fire in the sky, burning the clouds and seas red.

Whether there are lakes and mountains or not, one must be young to enjoy life.

Sure enough, the immortal had the appearance of a young man, with a peach wood hairpin pinned to his head, and wearing a black magic robe.

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Longmen."

Sure enough, he smiled and said: "It's just a little bit of effort, it's not worth mentioning. Regarding the reconstruction of Taiping Mountain, Mr. Chen's deep intentions and great thoughts are not comparable to me."

For some reason, I always feel that this Mr. Chen, who is said to have never climbed the Taiping Mountain, has long regarded himself as a half-Taiping Mountain monk.

Chen Pingan joked: "We are enshrined by name with Senior Longmen, so the next time we visit Tieshu Mountain in Shenzhou of Central Earth, we will not be closed doors."

Sure enough, he said: "I may stay here for a few more years, but I will write a letter to my senior sister, and I will sweep the couch to welcome you, just wait."

Thousands of miles away, there is no one inhabited. If you climb high and look far away here, your eyes will be full of loneliness.

Where there is a setting sun, I am most afraid of climbing tall buildings.

Sure enough, he said: "There are some things to be busy with, but for Huang Ting, it's actually a good thing, it can be a distraction."

So as expected, he deliberately let Huang Ting make up his mind on many minor details that were not critical issues. It was not just that Huang Ting was the owner of the mountain and he was an enshrined priest.

It was intentional to make Huang Ting difficult.

Chen Pingan said softly: "When the work is over, I will feel a little more at ease."

Wu Shuangjiang's New Year's Eve Palace is called the "Youth Cave" by Qingming Tianxia.

This Taiping Mountain, why not.

Chen Pingan plans to give away the "Authentic Book of Alchemy" as a viewing ceremony when the Taiping Mountain Patriarch Hall is completed. According to what Lu Chen said before, the material of the book itself is superior. If more than 1000 or [-] characters are added, after refining , just enough to support a Luotian Dajiao, as the mountain protection formation of Taiping Mountain.Just because this book was given to him by Li Xisheng, of course Chen Pingan needed to ask Li Xisheng, so he asked Lu Chen to help deliver the message. Coincidentally, when Li Baoping was a guest at Qingping Peak this time, he took the initiative to mention this, saying that his brother seemed to be Knowing this, it's okay.

Li Xisheng also said that as long as the time is right, he will definitely come to Taiping Mountain.

And this Li Xisheng, who is still a disciple of Confucianism for the time being, is one of the three Qings who are known as the head teacher of Bai Yujing, who happens to be the head teacher of the Taiping Mountain Taoist lineage.

When Ren Shanzhu on Taiping Mountain first became the Heavenly Monarch, he burned incense to invite the gods to descend to the real world, but he regretted not being able to see the head teacher Kou Ming "visit" the Patriarch Hall.

Chen Ping bid farewell to Guo Guo, and then went to Pushan.

Sure enough, he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen is a true pure and mellow Confucian. He talks about the truth and reason, but he is practical and has real knowledge. It is not surprising."

Chen Pingan looked embarrassed and said: "I really can't afford this praise from Senior Longmen."

Qianjin Wanshi Studio, which is in charge of Tanrong in Pushan, is a very famous study on the top and bottom of Tongyezhou Mountain.

Among the stewards of the ferry in Haoran Tianxia, ​​there are a few small "mountains" of their own. They are all old monks who are familiar with each other and get along with each other. Occasionally, they can chat with each other through a private mirror, and they can also communicate with each other. It is often just a few extra ways of making money out of thin air.Earlier, Tan Rong made an appointment with the stewards of two cross-continental ferries from other places to help buy those two imprints with a lot of money from a certain sect in Aiaizhou. The last one is missing.But today's Tanzhanglu took the initiative to open the Mirror Flower and Water Moon, and has already shut up about this matter. He is sitting behind a desk, and on top of the empty desk, there are brand new seals that the two parties have just obtained. It is very eye-catching, but Tan Rong Don't take the initiative to mention this matter, just wait for some sharp-eyed people to ask.

After chatting for a long time, someone who knows the goods finally asked: "Tan Rong, what is on the table is a newly engraved seal? Take it up and look at the seal, let me see if your seal-handling skill has improved now." Still retreated."

Tan Rong smiled and turned the seal around, giving out the text on the side and the name of the inscription, and was not in a hurry to show the printed text on the bottom.

For a moment, Jinghuashuiyue fell into a long silence.

Because the person who paid the bill was the "Chen Ping'an of the Lost Mountain".

As a result, someone was the first to speak, with a convincing tone, "Fake!"

Someone echoed, "Old Tan, why bother."

Someone sighed and tsk-tsk, "Tan Rong, Tan Rong, for the sake of gaining fame, I really don't want the slightest bit of shame. It's useless. Everyone knows the bottom line. It's meaningless to beat a swollen face to pretend to be fat."

This Tan Rong was furious, but the old Zhang Lu glanced at the door, and soon stroked his beard and smiled, without any trace of gloom, it's better to come sooner than later!

An old steward of a cross-continental ferry who participated in the first meeting of the Chunfanzhai in Daoxuan Mountain, crushed several snowflake coins, threw them into the mirror, and said in a deep voice: "Tan Rong, don't do this kind of thing, it's a taboo. I just know your character and Pu Shan's style of family, otherwise, with my extraordinary friendship with the new hermit, the next time I see the new hermit, the wine table is set up, and I have a few glasses of wine, and I will insist on this Speaking of things, don’t you think I don’t know the handwriting of the new hermit official? The inscriptions on the sides of the two seals are soft and weak. It’s clear that there is more than softness, but not vigorous. Who are you lying to? I will take you to the top of the city when I have a chance. Over there, take a good look at the words engraved by Lord Yinguan... Oh, Lord Yinguan?!"

At the beginning, the old steward of the Nascent Soul Realm had received an extra errand with a junior ship owner of a Jindan female cultivator, and was able to write and record the contents of the two parties' discussions in Chunfan Zhai.

A young man in a green shirt and long jacket suddenly appeared in the mirror, stood beside Tan Rong, clasped his fists, shook his hands, and said with a smile, "Listen to the voice, is it Liu Yuliu, the steward of Fuzhong Ferry?"

Even across a mirror, the old steward still felt his scalp numb and his back cold, but he didn't dare to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he said in a trembling voice: "Exactly."

Immediately afterwards, another female cultivator hurriedly threw money into the mirror, and timidly said: "Liu Shen, the owner of the 'Neon Clothes', has met Mr. Yinguan."

Chen Ping put his arms around his sleeves and nodded with a smile.

Before Tan Rong ended the show, Chen Ping'an cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I wish you all a happy new year, a happy new year, and a smooth sailing. I wish you all the best of luck in the new year."

In the mirror, water and moon, it was bustling and bustling, with more than a dozen voices resounding, one by one returning the salute to the young hermit official.

Li Baoping and the others have left Pushan and continued their southward journey. They will follow the travel route given by Pushan, first follow the Peijiang River into the sea, go to the ruins of an island on the sea, and then go ashore.

With Pei Qian, Zhong Kui and Yu Jin, in Tongyezhou, even if they face Wan Yaozong who occupies the blessed land of three mountains, they will not be afraid at all.

But now Pushan Patriarch Hall has an extra direct disciple, who is considered to be a guy who has gone through the back door through his relationship. His name is Cui Wanzhan.

Previously, an old man in green clothes came from Qingshan Ferry of Qingping Sword Sect. He traveled here alone, and when he heard that Master Chen was not in the mountains, he stopped staying and continued to travel.

Just like the elders in a family, most of them are like this. They obviously care about it in their hearts, but they want to pretend that they don't care.

It is rare to speak, and the words are always understated. If the juniors are not paying attention, they will miss a lot of meaning hidden in the plain faces, eyes, and words of the old people.

Chen Pingan left Pushan and came to Mixuefeng, Cui Dongshan was extremely wronged, I can't tie old Song to prevent him from leaving.

Dare I?

As far as Song Yushao's stubborn temper is concerned, if Xiandu Mountain insists on keeping guests, it will make the seniors unhappy, sir, you must not spread the fire on the students.

Chen Pingan asked: "Where did Senior Song travel?"

Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "It seems that Senior Song didn't plan to travel around Tongyezhou at the beginning, so after leaving Qingshandu, he went straight to the north. At this moment, he probably went to an old palace in the old Dayuan Dynasty. The city, most likely, is the place where Mr. and Zhong Kui met. There are ghost towns along the way, and there is nothing to see. With the temper of the senior, he is definitely willing to stop and take a few more glances."

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Go ahead, I'll go find Senior Song myself."

Cui Dongshan laughed and said: "Sir, I wish you good news. Chai Wu is already in the Jade Realm, and the natal flying sword that Xiaomo gave has been refined by Chai Wu, so we Qingping Sword Sect, there are many There is a Jade Realm Sword Cultivator."

Chen Ping was speechless for a moment.

Cui Dongshan said: "I didn't deliberately hide anything, so after learning about this, King Sun Chun, Bai Xuan and the others worked hard and became more serious about practicing swords. King Sun Chun was better, and Bai Xuan was the last Poor, it's like being struck by lightning, even saying it's impossible, squatting on the ground holding his head, almost lying on the ground and rolling, He Guyu feels better when Bai Xuan makes such a fuss Point. But generally speaking, no one is jealous of Chai Wu's one-step ascension to the sky. After all, he is a native sword cultivator of the Great Wall of Sword Qi. He has a wide vision, has seen the world, and has a good heart. There will definitely be dissatisfaction, just like Bai Xuan , the so-called impossibility is this old man who can't understand 'How could there be a peer with better qualifications than me in the world, it can't be, it shouldn't be, how is it possible', Bai Xuan has calmed down a little in the past few days Now, but I will definitely continue to struggle with this matter, at least for a month."

Chen Pingan said helplessly, "What an uncle."

It wasn't long before we met, and even being tricked into monogramming Jiu Yifeng Qiu Zhi on the book of heroes, it was indeed the only one.

Chen Pingan suddenly asked two nonsensical questions one after another, which made Cui Dongshan's forehead drip with sweat. He hesitated to speak several times, but was unable to speak.

"Have you ever caught eels lying on the edge of a field?"

"There is a saying in "Guanzi" Baixin, that it is famous all over the world, and it is not as good as it already is. Dongshan, what do you think?"

Just as Cui Dongshan was about to speak, his figure had already turned into dozens of sword lights, and he passed Xiandu Mountain in an instant.

Cui Dongshan was speechless, and murmured: "Sir, do you really want to be an enemy of the Confucian Temple's rules?"

"In this way, it is Li Sheng who provoked you, sir."

Cui Dongshan didn't want to say anything wrong with his husband, so he had no choice but to jump up and yell at the auntie.

For the first time, Cui Dongshan felt that his husband's realm was not high enough, which was a good thing.

It's just that he couldn't hold it back, and Cui Dongshan began to call Yangzhi an idiot again, so he took the bait and cast himself in the trap? !

What is this if you don't jump on the chopping block yourself?

Or did Mr. Ding dare not make a move by relying on the rules of the Confucian Temple and being out of the battlefield?

Could it be that Li Sheng did it on purpose?

Is it a gamble with that Zou Zi?

In the territory of the old Dayuan Dynasty, the ruins of battlefields that used to be full of ghosts have become clearer now.

In the twilight, an old man in a green shirt wrapped in cotton cloth walked slowly into the gate of the city. This is the same city as the prefecture and county government. As far as the old man could see, the scene was the same as before. lethargy.

The old man looked towards the ruins of the City God Temple, a little surprised, could it be that there is already a new City God in the city?I was going to have a look over there.

The old man has been wandering the rivers and lakes all his life, until the day Jinpen washed his hands and withdrew from the rivers and lakes, he didn't seem to have gone too far.

Not long ago, the old man found his grandson Song Fengshan and his granddaughter-in-law Liu Qian, and said that he wanted to visit Tongyezhou in the south.

Song Fengshan and Liu Qian's persuasion was ineffective, so the old man had to travel across continents alone.

As for why the old man suddenly had such intentions, the two juniors knew well that they had to blame Wei Wei whose mountain shrine was built on the watershed. With Liu Qian, who considered herself a good friend in her boudoir, she took the initiative to talk about the Luopo mountain of Chen Jianxian, who was about to choose Tongyezhou as the next clan. No matter what Liu Qian said, she is now a colleague who was formally appointed by the imperial court and included in the Shanshui genealogy of the Ministry of Rites.

In fact, the couple knew very well that what grandpa really wanted to visit was Beiju Luzhou in the north and Liuxiazhou in the northwest with Yuzhou.

The former wanted to go when he was young. At that time, the martial arts master of Shushui Kingdom always felt that there was no difference between a Jianghu swordsman and a mountain swordsman. If there was a difference, he would know it as soon as he went.

The latter is Song Yushao who wants to go when he gets old. Anyway, he wants to go to both places, but he has never been to either.

Of course, Song Fengshan is worried that Grandpa will go to Tongyezhou and Haoran Jiuzhou. This is the only place that was ruined the most by the monsters in the wild world in the past, but now the mountains and the mountains are the most uneven.

Last time, Chen Pingan brought Taoist Ning Yao to visit Jingling Mountain on his own initiative, and had a drink, but he was in a hurry to go to Caiyi Country, so he didn't stay.

Song Yushao didn't have the face to keep the young people, relying on the old to sell the old, it's a bad idea.It is good that young people are willing to be busy with their careers and big things, but it is outrageous to be idle.

As for the celebration of the Luobashan Xiazong this time, Song Yushao didn't think there was anything wrong with not inviting himself.

There is nothing wrong with people, the scenery on the mountains, a martial arts man, what is there to get mixed up with, besides, the boy's descendant is not in Baopingzhou, the mountains and rivers are far away, probably because he thinks he is old and can't walk. I can't eat spicy food and drink alcohol.

stinky boy.

Next time we meet, don't think I have a good face.

Today, there are more than a dozen living people in the city.

The leader is a strong man wearing armor and saber, and a man pretending to be a warrior of the sixth realm of the five realms, named Hong Chou. The man and the woman Wang Manmeng are a pair of dewy mandarin ducks.

Wang Manmeng was born in Shanzawa Noxiu. The woman is very short, but she has a charming appearance and fair skin.

Wearing a bunt night jacket with a waist and a pair of embroidered shoes, in the words of a certain fat man, it is a slender waist and fat buttocks.

These dozen or so field repairmen and Jianghu martial arts originally wanted to come here to make a fortune.In fact, they almost made a lot of money by them.In the end, I was so desperate that I met a scholar named Zhong with a fat squire by his side.A group of guys who are used to earning a living by earning a living, were forced to do good things in this ghost town.Be that carpenter, build wooden wheeled carts, carefully gather up the scattered corpses in the city, and then be the great kind person who contributes money and effort, builds the resting place of Yizhuang, searches for dragons and acupuncture points to find a yin house with good Fengshui, To open up and build a cemetery, and to identify the identities of those bones during their lifetime, they had to go to the houses of the two prefectural and county government offices in the city to carefully check the files and local chronicles. They had never read, flipped books, and copied names so hard in their lives. Dare to love is to practice calligraphy.

In addition, every night in the old Town God's Temple, I have to temporarily act as a ghost messenger, and accompany Guqiu to "night interrogate" many lonely ghosts and wild ghosts, and carefully check their life stories. Numb, they guessed that they would not have to be afraid of ghosts if they walked at night in this life.Recently, we started joking with each other. As far as our handwriting is concerned, not to mention how good it is, it is not much worse than ordinary scholars. We write family letters to people on the street, and write a few Spring Festival couplets at the New Year’s Temple Fair. Can earn a few taels of silver.

Now in this ghost town, sleeping at night is a bit more secure.

As a result, there were a few people who worked diligently during the day and reported their names there in their dreams in the middle of the night, disturbing their dreams, and those who were woken up were annoyed by hearing it, and slapped them with their backhands.

It's just that the group of people has disagreements recently. In the early morning of the beginning of spring, Gu Qiu suddenly said that now it's a matter in the city, and everyone is free to do whatever they want.A large group of people who should have disbanded should have sat on the ground and divided up the spoils. After getting the money according to the rules, they can go back to their respective homes and return home.

In addition to the yellow and white things that were obtained through hard work, the antique calligraphy and paintings, rare and rare books, with the help of Gu Qiu, they were all converted into fairy money or real gold and silver, which was refreshing.But the group of people led by Wang Manmeng felt that staying here in the city and hanging out with Guqiu might lead to a smooth career. Guangzong Yaozu was not sure, and it was not a dream to get a status as an official enshrined.But her concubine, Hong Chou, felt that it was meaningless to stay here. It would be better for everyone to get together and find a place to start a school. When they had capital, they would be recruited by the court and sold to the emperor's house. It would be easy to sell Better price.The two parties argued endlessly, and both felt that it was better to get together than to break up, so they dragged on and lived in two adjacent high-ranking official residences in the former state city, each with a library named Qiqianjuan Library and Eight thousand volumes library, like two mothers-in-law and aunts cursing and arguing.

At this moment, a row of people squatted on top of the dilapidated city, as if basking in the... sunset.

They really had nothing to do, they fought back and forth, but they couldn't find a way that both parties could agree on.

They saw an old man in a green shirt and long coat appearing on the street, looking at his footsteps and momentum, he looked like a practicing family.

A young man who looked like a skinny monkey smiled and said, "Old man, what are you doing in such a place where no one sees shit?"

If it is left in the past, it is necessary to change the title to an old thing.

Seeing that the old man didn't talk to him, the thin man intentionally raised alarmist words, "Old man, you have to be careful, it's going to be night soon, this place is a place full of ghosts and ghosts, don't overdo it, rely on a little Martial arts feel that you can walk sideways, be careful of capsized boats in the gutter, those ghostly tricks are very weird, not something people in the Jianghu can deal with."

If you turn over and copy more books, you will speak more elegantly, right?

In fact, everything that can be searched in the city has been scraped clean by them, and they don't worry about someone coming here to hunt for treasures, leaving only some leftovers, and earning money is considered a skill.

They were so bored that they were just basking in the sun here, and they had been chatting and farting for almost two hours.

The old man smiled when he heard the words, nodded and said: "I am a foreigner who has traveled far away. Tongyezhou's elegant words are lame. I can only listen to the general meaning. Your kindness is appreciated."

The thin monkey man asked curiously: "A foreign country? What kind of a foreign country?"

The old man said: "From Aquarius Continent."

The group of people suddenly groaned, and felt a cold breath coming from their backs. The old guy is a tough idea, and it must be difficult to handle!

No nonsense, the Dragon Crossing the River who traveled south from the Aquarius Continent to the mainland, is his morality poor?

Don't mess with anyone in Aquarius Continent, now it's almost a consensus on Tongyezhou Mountain.

There is no way, there are indeed talents there.

For example, the last hermit official of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, wasn't he from Aquarius Continent?

The fat man named Gusu, before leaving the ghost town, had sworn that he and the young hermit were best friends who met each other, and that Chen Jianxian was born with a height of ten feet, big and round arms, and a ferocious appearance. Honor, you can deter evil and sneaky people, and I also suggested that these quack brothers who are not Qi practitioners just need to call their young hermit officials by their first names, so that they don't have to be afraid of walking at night in the future.

Of course they don't believe it, just because you, a fat man who drools at Wang Manmeng every day, can also be called brothers and sisters with that hidden official who is far away in the sky and high above you?It's just that if you don't believe it, you have to hold the other party with your mouth. It's okay, it's because you have suffered at the hands of the other party, either being hung up or tied to the beam as a gentleman, it's nothing, mainly because the gentleman on the beam just fell asleep. Then he woke up suddenly, and found that there was a woman with bleeding from the seven orifices sitting next to him, combing her hair, and woke up after she fainted from fright, and found herself nestled in the arms of the female ghost. passed out...

Days are like years, the dismal experience in the city during this period, after going out, I can write a strange book.

Song Yushao went straight to the old Town God's Temple.

The feng shui of a place, the old people who are used to the rivers and lakes, can generally see the truth.

In fact, just saying that there is not a single skeleton in this city is enough to explain the problem.

Most likely there is a pretty good Cheng Huang Ye from the local area.

Guqiu, the real owner of the ghost town, is now sitting in the Town God's Temple of Jiuzhou.

There is a ghost girl named Xiaofang, Jindanjing, who has served as Guqiu's maid for these years and lives in a small peach blossom courtyard all year round.

Gu Qiu was born in a well-known county family in the old Dayuan Dynasty. His father was once the head of the weaving bureau of a country and a confidant of the first emperor. Gu Qiu himself was born as a genuine scholar in the second list. The county lieutenant of a large county under his jurisdiction has made remarkable achievements.

Before Mr. Zhong left, he said that he could introduce Guqiu to the new king of Dayuan, and maybe he could be appointed by the imperial court and officially serve as the city god of Yizhou.

There is nothing to be hypocritical about being promoted according to merit, but Gu Qiu still hesitated. It was really the Da Yuan military general who was the abbot of the Water and Land Ceremony before, who was perfunctory. Going to persuade, the result almost fell into a siege, which completely chilled Guqiu.What's more, from Gu Qiu's point of view, the new king's position was not right, so he was not considered to be an orthodox successor.

In the end, I was ridiculed by the fat man. At a young age, I have the old literati habits. I don’t want to try my best to turn the tide. I always want to meet a majestic and wise king, so I am willing to go out and realize my ambitions. Gusu Brother, if I were an emperor, I wouldn't care for a celebrity like you...

Of course Gu Qiu knew that this was the ghost fairy who called himself Gusu using the aggressive method, but after thinking about it, it did make sense.

Zhong Kui once made it clear before that there is a reason why he can't sit still in a city god's temple or turn over a merit book. Think more about it. Doing good intentionally and doing evil unintentionally are two different things.

Inside the Town God's Temple, Xiao Fang and Gu Qiu reminded softly: "Just now there is an old man who claims to be from Aquarius Continent, and seems to be a warrior of the Six Realms."

Gu Qiu nodded and said, "Don't worry about it, just let the old man wander around."

Gu Qiu, as the host of the city, as a state city god who is only a few steps away from the imperial court's official title, has already seen that the other party is an upright old man.

Sure enough, the old gentleman did not enter the Temple of the City God, but just clasped his fists outside the gate, and then turned to other places.

The old man originally thought that the next time they met, he must put on a bad face for the young man to see, but when the old man really saw the blue shirt on the street, he still couldn't hold back his face and laughed.

With his hands behind his back, Song Yushao walked forward quickly, and asked with a smile, "Isn't it in the mountains, how did you find it here?"

Chen Pingan smiled brightly and said: "I didn't go far down the mountain, and I got the student's flying sword to send a message, so I rushed over. It's not a few steps anyway."

Song Yushao asked: "Find a place, the whole hot pot, and have a drink?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Senior is old after all, if you want to have a drink, you can have a drink, but I have to let go. The hot pot is wine, I have it all over the world."

Song Yu scolded with a smile: "Which pot is not open, which pot should be lifted, who did Guapi learn the strange words from?"

The two walked side by side, and the old man turned his head to look at the young man in the blue shirt with a sword on his back, and nodded, "Not bad."

Chen Pingan thought for a while and said, "There is something that I may need to ask my senior for advice."

Song Yushao nodded and said, "We'll talk about it after we're at the wine table."

Before Chen Ping appeared on the street, he had already troubled Guqiu and Miss Xiaofang to help find the ingredients for the hot pot. As for the drinks, there was no need to look for them, as Chen Ping had them himself.

In a well-kept house, a hot copper pot has already been set on the table, with all kinds of meat and vegetable ingredients cut up, and dishes with chopped peppers and sauces are all available.

Chen Pingan and the girl from Xiaofang clasped their fists in thanks, the girl smiled sweetly, waved her hands and said that you don't have to be so polite, she bestowed a blessing on her, and left slowly.

Because he wanted to have a drink with Senior Song before talking about something, Chen Pingan didn't invite the girl to eat hot pot with Gu Qiu.

After the girl crossed the threshold, she stopped suddenly and asked curiously, "Can I ask you, sir, what is your name?"

After all, he was Mr. Zhong's friend on the mountain, and the last time the other party appeared in the city, he was extremely arrogant, and he shocked everyone at once.

Chen Ping'an smiled and said, "The surname is Chen and the name is Ping'an, Ping'an's Ping'an."

The girl froze for a moment, held back her laughter, and said, "What a coincidence."

It even has the same name and surname as that young hermit official.

Chen Ping smiled and nodded, "What a coincidence."

The onlookers lying on the wall laughed loudly and whistled everywhere, especially that Wang Manmeng, who was even more joyful, handsome and bold, and my sister liked this kind of bookish scholar.

Xiaofang gave them a hard look, and started to wave away people.

What happened to Chen Gongzi and the young Yinguan's name? Can Chen Pingan take care of it?

Chen Pingan took out two jugs of wine and two white bowls, and used wine glasses for drinking, which was something only Liu Jiuxian and Wei Hailiang could do.

Song Yushao glanced at the condiment plate in Chen Pingan's hand. There were less than half of the dried and freshly chopped peppers. Chen Pingan felt the old man's gaze, so he had to pick up two more chopsticks.

Song Yushao poured himself a bowl of wine, but he was not in a hurry to drink. The old man said, "Don't do things against your heart. Don't do things that come from your heart, but don't do things that violate the morals of the world. You can't do it today. , Things that are expected to be accomplished in the future must not be done by any means to achieve the goal, and do not rush to do it."

Chen Pingan was silent for a moment, raised the wine bowl, and said with a smile: "Then the junior has no questions to ask."

Song Yushao picked up the wine bowl, hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't help asking softly: "What's wrong, are you attracted to a woman other than Miss Ning?"

Chen Ping was dumbfounded, what's the matter with you, senior, you actually asked this kind of question, that is, you, senior, otherwise no one would have finished talking, Chen Ping raised his wine bowl and said sullenly: "Senior, don't talk nonsense, it's all done!" .”

Song Yushao said angrily: "I really hit the mark, you are a good-for-nothing coward, and now you are not cowardly at all, drinking a shitty wine, is it to scold you?!"

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "Senior, talk about it yourself, is this kind of thing possible? Lend me your guts?"

I was at the Great Wall of Sword Qi, and every time I went out for a drink, I had to shake off the smell of alcohol before I dared to knock on the door. Of course, I wouldn't be locked out of the door overnight, no.

Song Yushao's expression stretched, and he nodded, "That's true. I can do whatever I want with this bowl of wine, but you did."

Chen Ping drank it all in one gulp. The old man who said he was casual was actually not casual, and he drank a large bowl of wine directly.

Seeing this, Chen Pingan felt a little regretful, he would have taken out the "big bowl" from Jianqi Great Wall's own wine shop.

There was no persuasion at the table, Song Yushao was drinking the shochu, and suddenly asked, "Why do you have gray hair?"

Not many, but since you can see it at a glance, it means that the young man's gray hair is not too little.

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It may be because of the fall, it doesn't matter, it's good to look older."

I didn't pay attention to this matter, presumably the people around me who had paid attention to it for a long time, for various reasons and reasons, they chose not to speak up.

Probably this kind of thing, only an old man and an elder who has already turned gray can say it without taboo.

The old man didn't ask why he fell, but just smiled and said: "Only young people can think that it's okay to look old with gray hair."

Chen Pingan let out a hey.

On the other side of the corner outside the house, there was a young man in white squatting before. After the Wang Manmeng group of people on the wall were driven away, the young man who was finally safe and healthy left with them.

Don't bother your husband, and have a good drink with the old man who changed a great event in just a few words.

Wang Manmeng turned her head to look at the handsome young man with his snow-white sleeves flying up, looking in a very good mood, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that the man in the blue shirt at the table in the room was not very good-looking, very bad-looking.

The woman twisted her slender waist and said with a charming smile: "Which young man, come here to play, it's getting dark, are you afraid of walking at night, just follow my sister closely, it's dark, reach out It’s common for people who don’t see their fingers to accidentally bump into or touch something, and my sister won’t blame me.”

Cui Dongshan was in a good mood at the moment, and ignored her, so he didn't know her as well. He just raised his head and found that it was snowing in early spring.

Seeing that handsome young man in snow-white who never spoke to him, the beautiful woman also felt bored, but she didn't dare to reach out to pinch his cheek, not because she was afraid of knocking over the pot of jealousy, but because of a strange coincidence, she thought this very good-looking young man was too good-looking, young man There is a red mole on the center of Lang's eyebrows, which looks as good as the plum blossoms on the side of the wild bridge in his hometown in the snow when he was a young girl.

Cui Dongshan walked slowly down the street with his arms wrapped around his sleeves. The snow was getting heavier, he came back to his senses, and suddenly smiled, "This sister, my name is Cui Dongshan, and I'm a student of your husband."

Hot pot on the table, snow outside the table, in the snowflakes of the Three Thousand Worlds.
