Sword comes

Chapter 995 The limited cup long boy

As the old saying goes, if you are free, you will be happy.

Since idleness is also idleness, and idleness is a kind of enjoyment, Liu Xianyang took a round-faced girl named Yu Qianyue to travel to the northernmost part of Aquarius Island. They wandered along the long coastline After a circle, Liu Xianyang went to the sea every day, bringing pots and pans, a pot of seafood stewed, so much so that Liu Xianyang forgot what seafood is like.Whenever Liu Xianyang stopped to rest or take a nap, the round-faced girl in cotton padded clothes sat quietly beside her.

When Liu Xianyang returned to the top of the Zongmen Mountain, he found that Ruan Blacksmith was still forging swords behind closed doors, while his junior brother Xie Ling was in serious retreat, and it was said that he wanted to thoroughly refine that treasure that money can't buy.

This object is a treasure given to Xie Ling by the third head teacher of Baiyu Jing. It is a seven-color glazed pagoda, half a foot high, with nine floors, and plaques are hung on all four sides of each floor, so there are 36 pieces in total.

Liu Xianyang was very envious, and couldn't help sighing, "It's really nice to have a good ancestor."

Credit Moon didn't talk to her, she was just thinking about whether the ducks on the Longxu River were flocking or not.

Liu Xianyang was still complaining about himself, saying that his ability to reincarnate was not as good as this junior brother Xie, otherwise it would be no problem to just get into the Ascension Realm, let alone the Immortal Realm.

Dong Gu on the side has long been accustomed to this, anyway, it is his own words behind closed doors, and he can't throw it outside ashamed.

Besides, although Liu Xianyang said it sourly, it is also true that Junior Brother Xie has a very good chance on the road of cultivation, just like what Liu Xianyang said, it is due to the family tree of the Xie family in Taoye Lane. Xie Shi, the king of Luzhou, the last time Xie Shi returned to his hometown, Xie Ling, this kid, is like creating an extra living ancestor who walked out of the genealogy out of thin air.According to what Lu Chen said at that time, this small pagoda can suppress all evil spirits, heretics, ghosts and ghosts below the upper five realms in the world. Lu Chen said at the time that this thing "barely counts" as a half-immortal soldier.Xie Ling was convinced at the time, the patriarch Xie Shi hesitated to speak, and finally did not reveal the secret.When the young man who was nicknamed "Long Meier" by Lu Chen got older and his cultivation realm was getting higher and higher, Xie Ling was shocked to find that the Linglong Pagoda, which had not been refined into its natal object, was a real fairy weapon at all. treasure.

The reason why Xie Ling was able to be a swordsman, and at the same time be proficient in talismans and formations was due to his painstaking research on this exquisite pagoda.

Someone once glanced at it and commented on this important treasure. There was only one sentence, this thing is a complete Dao vein.

Her implication is that junior brother Xie Ling can establish a sect with this thing alone, apart from gradually ascending without delaying his practice.

After a few casual conversations with Dong Gu, Liu Xianyang was finally willing to spit out the licorice in his mouth, stood up, asked Senior Brother Dong to say hello to Senior Sister Xu, and in half an hour, we will go to Zushan for dinner together. As the suzerain, he should be respectful and corporal, and cook himself.

As the founding disciple of Longquan Sword Sect, Dong Gu is in the Nascent Soul Realm, but because Dong Gu was born as a monster and not a sword cultivator, so for Liu Xianyang to be the second suzerain, he is a big brother, but deep down in his heart What a relief.

Xu Xiaoqiao is still a sword cultivator at the Golden Core Realm, but she is limited by her aptitude for cultivating Taoism. If there is no accident, she will stop at the Nascent Soul Realm in her life.

Xu Xiaoqiao has always believed in this kind of final evaluation, but he can't talk about how disappointed he is.

Anyway, in the same sect, there are Liu Xianyang and Xie Ling, two genius juniors who will definitely have high achievements in the Dao. In addition, Master Ruan Qiong never exacts anything in the realm of disciples. Abundant and leisurely.

It's just that Liu Xianyang, he always thinks that he and Xu Xiaoqiao can meet and call him suzerain, but Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao have a tacit understanding, so don't even think about it if you express it or hint it.

Two men and women who are not yet Taoist couples, on the way to Yufeng hand in hand, Xuyue asked casually: "What is that Xie Ling refining?"

Liu Xianyang said with a smile, "An exquisite pagoda with the rank of immortal soldiers."

He added, "It was given to Junior Brother Xie by a guy whose stall I overturned."

Credit Moon turned her head and glanced at a mountain, nodded and said, "It's quite valuable."

Liu Xianyang began to speak bitterly again, "I am a sword cultivator, what are these external things... Damn, of course it is nothing! As long as Junior Brother Xie is willing to give it away, I will kowtow to him. "

Credit Yue asked doubtfully, "Is that why you want immortal soldiers?"

In her opinion, Liu Xianyang is the kind of strange sword cultivator who least needs any immortal soldiers.

Liu Xianyang was stunned, "Why? Do you have it?"

Credit moon nodded and said: "It's not like you don't understand what the atmosphere is like in the wild world. Since you've all gone out, of course you have all your belongings on you, so there are a few in your pocket. Since you want it so much, pick two. Pleasing to the eye, take it for refining?"

Liu Xianyang grinned, reached out and patted his cheek, "What are you talking about, I'm not Chen Pingan, I look like the kind of person who eats soft food?!"

Credit month rolled his eyes.

When he arrived at Zushan, Liu Xianyang really put on his apron and started to cook, and he was there to help.

Liu Xianyang suddenly turned his head and said: "Qianyue, maybe I didn't explain that sentence clearly before, Chen Pingan just looks like a softie, I don't look like it, I just am."

Credit Yue chops wood fiercely with a knife in his hand, then throws it over to the stove, and says angrily, "Don't wait until it's over."

As soon as she heard the name of the young hermit, she felt depressed and in a bad mood.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "Don't be depressed, I'll beat him with a sack in front of you later."

Credit Moon twitched the corner of her mouth, "He doesn't dare to do anything to you, so hold grudges, what should I do."

Liu Xianyang felt that he had to find an opportunity to open up the window with this girl Yu and speak honestly!But you have to drink first to strengthen your courage.

Probably so people who really like someone are cowards.

Liu Xianyang said: "You have visited Zhoucheng before, have you seen that boy?"

Credit Moon shook her head.

It turned out that just now Liu Xianyang learned from Senior Brother Dong that in Chuzhou City, there was a shabby young man named Li Shenyuan, who was carrying a high-rank snake gallstone in his arms, and went all the way from Chuzhou alone. Walked through Yu, Hong and other states, and walked to the vicinity of the old Beiyue in the capital of Dali. When the boy reached the gate of Longquan Jianzong, he was almost a beggar. He wanted to give away the snake gallstone. Use this as a stepping stone to become a disciple of Longquan Jianzong.

Moreover, he named Xu Xiaoqiao by name and surname, and wanted to learn from Xu Xiaoqiao, who is now located in Zhuhai Peak. Even if he couldn't become the direct disciple of this female sword fairy, he could be a disciple of an outside sect temporarily.Zhuhai Peak is not among the mountains to the west of Lizhu Cave. It is an original mountain in the old Beiyue boundary of Dali.

I heard that the young man's ancestors were from the small town for generations, and the ancestral house is on the other side of Erlang Lane, but in the hands of the elders of the family, he sold the ancestral house and got a large amount of gold and silver. It is on the same street as Zhoucheng. The government handed over the land deeds in exchange for several brand-new adjacent mansions. The family was very far-sighted earlier, and at the same time purchased a lot of fertile land outside the city. It stands to reason that such a wealthy family should be a little more honest and stable. After one or two generations of management , whether it is to become a scholarly family, or to spend money to get rich first and then later, it is not difficult.

It's just that no matter how big the family business is, it can't be worth a gambler, and there are two gamblers in the family. If you want to win money on the gambling table, you can only rely on sitting in the dealership and cheating since ancient times. up.In fact, many families who moved from small towns to Zhoucheng, at least [-]% of them, lost a substantial family business at the gambling table.Once a small town boy, now he is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, or he is a young and strong man who used to be a drunk, gambler and bachelor, but now he is just an old bachelor.

This Li Shenyuan didn't force his way through the mountain gate, let alone talk nonsense, he built a straw hut in the nearby mountains and lived like a savage.

Every time the young man showed up, he just squatted on the side of the road at the entrance of the mountain, waiting for news, hoping that Longquan Jianzong would allow him to go up the mountain.

A few people from the same family met, since blacksmith Ruan was still working hard, of course it was Liu Xianyang, the new suzerain, who was in charge of the house, and brought back a lot of seafood in the closet.

Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao rushed to Zushan's side at the meal time, and saw Liu Xianyang sitting down at Master's main table. Eat on a bench.

Having a home-cooked meal at the same table is the tradition of Longquan Jianzong. Discussing big things is just a few words at the dinner table.

It really complies with the old saying that eating is the biggest thing in the world.

Even the matter of Liu Xianyang's succession as suzerain was discussed on the table. Ruan Qiong said it, Liu Xianyang did not refuse, and Dong Gu and Xie Ling agreed, so it was settled.

Today's dinner table is nothing more than an extra month of credit, and she is not an outsider.

Liu Xianyang toasted to Senior Brother Dong, and asked, "If Xie Ling successfully refines that treasure, and then leaves the customs, will it be the Jade Raw Realm?"

Dong Gu took a sip of his wine, picked up his chopsticks, and said, "I don't know."

But Xu Xiaoqiao nodded, "That's what Junior Brother Xie told me before retreating. Junior Brother Xie always speaks in a calm manner. Since he said so, it's more or less the same."

Liu Xianyang turned to look at Dong Gu, "Senior Brother Dong, Xie Ling didn't tell you?"

Dong Gu shook his head.

Liu Xianyang smiled again and turned his head to look at Xu Xiaoqiao. Xu Xiaoqiao guessed what he was going to talk about, and said first: "I advise you not to scold me."

"Senior sister understands me."

Liu Xianyang laughed and rubbed his chin, "Our Long Meier is amazing, amazing, Blacksmith Ruan was really lucky to pick up the treasure, Chang Meier is now at the forefront of the ten young people in Aquarius Island, Waiting for him to become Yupu, wouldn't he be on an equal footing with me as the suzerain? When this kid comes out of customs, I have to persuade Ruan Blacksmith. Since he is no longer the suzerain, then don't put on such airs as a master, next time Before we eat together, Blacksmith Ruan has to take the initiative to toast Xie Ling with a few drinks."

Dong Gu didn't talk to him at all, and Xu Xiaoqiao just thought it was Liu Xianyang farting.

In such a big Aquarius Continent, there are not many people who dare to make fun of Ruan Qiong like this, maybe Liu Xianyang is the only one.

First, Ruan Qiong was at Fengxue Temple, the "nian's home" of Longquan Jianzong. Jianxiu even looked down on Shen Gaozong, who was the leader of Yizhou Mountain, but when talking about the swordsmith Ruan Qiong, it was rare for him to have a few good words that caught his eye.Furthermore, Ruan Qiong was the last sage sitting in Lizhu Cave, and was invited to be the chief enshrinement of Dali. Occasionally, he participated in the deliberations of the Imperial Study Room in the capital, not to mention His Majesty the Emperor, together with Wei Bo, Jin Qing, and other Dayue Mountain Monarchs. Ruan Qiong is extremely respectful, that Daoist Heavenly Monarch whose alias is Cao Rong, as a direct disciple of Lu Chen, senior brother of He Xiaoliang in Luzhou, Beiju, once appeared in Dali Capital, and it is rumored that he just chatted with Ruan Qiong, a boring gourd A few words.

What's more, whether it is Liu Xianyang, who is famous all over the world, or the young hermit official who "flowers inside the wall and smells fragrant outside the wall", it seems that when they were young, they were long-term laborers and day-to-day laborers respectively in the blacksmith shop by the Longxu River, and even more so. According to gossip, before this downcast mountain's official Chen Yin made his fortune, as long as he saw the taciturn Ruan Qiong, he would be like a mouse seeing a cat because of being under the fence.

Therefore, on the mountain south of Dadu in Aquarius Island, there are some rumors that only dare to say a few words in private. The reason why Longquan Sword Sect moved out of Chuzhou was because of the character of Chen Yinguan, who was thrown at the blacksmith's shop. His Majesty the Emperor Dali was so devastated that he could not adjust the conflict between the two sides, so he had to let the Longquan Sword Sect back down a step, and let Ruan Qiong step down as the suzerain, and Chen Yinguan's young friend Liu Xianyang succeeded him as the suzerain. Without the resentment that Chen Pingan has accumulated for many years, he and Ruan Qiong will not be completely torn apart, and both sides will suffer...

So a certain person took his own Fengyuan ferry not long ago, and got off the boat with his senior Song Yushao at the old dragon city. The sects of the Immortal Mansion, who were deliberately knocking on the sidelines, went to their ancestral hall, or the place where the mountain masters and masters practiced, drank tea, talked heart-to-heart, and reasoned. The guests of honor had a good time and the atmosphere was harmonious .

Liu Xianyang was a little strange, "This stubborn child, how come he seeks far away, and comes to our place to make a living. Isn't Chen Ping'an's Lost Mountain nearer?"

Dong Gu said: "It's probably because Luopo Mountain declared the mountain closed to the outside world."

Liu Xianyang asked: "Does that young man have a chance to go up the mountain to practice?"

The difference between immortals and mortals on the mountain and below the mountain is as clear as the distinction between ghosts and ghosts.

Xu Xiaoqiao said: "It is barely possible to practice, but the aptitude is really mediocre. Even if you lead the mountain, whether you can enter the middle five realms depends on the future fortune."

The implication is that even if the young man joins the Longquan Sword Sect, if there is no great opportunity in his future practice, he may not be able to reach the cave state in his life.

Dong Gu hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say anything more.Xu Xiaoqiao said this because she learned a unique secret technique of identifying root bones in her early years, which means that the young man named Li Shenyuan has not ordinary "average" aptitude.If you go to another fairy mansion, let alone the kind of tasteless, I am afraid that in the eyes of those immortal masters who inspect the roots, they can't even be called chicken ribs, and they will definitely be turned away.

As for Xu Xiaoqiao's secret technique, it is a dream method for any sect on the mountain. In the long run, it is not inferior to any treasure of the mountain.

Liu Xianyang asked: "How is his character?"

Ruan Tiejiang has an unwritten rule in his hand whether he can enter Longquan Sword Sect. Firstly, it depends on character and character, and then on quality of aptitude.

Dong Gu said: "Stubborn, admitting to death, I am willing to endure hardships, but my comprehension is a bit weak. If I really want to go up to the mountain to practice, it is indeed very reluctant."

Liu Xianyang was immediately happy, "Isn't it very similar to when someone was young?"

Xu Xiaoqiao hesitated to speak, and endured it, thinking about it or forget it.

You are the only one who dares to comment on Lord Chen Shan of Lost Mountain like that.

Liu Xianyang said: "Senior Sister Xu, just accept it, let Li Shenyuan be an anonymous disciple first."

Xu Xiaoqiao nodded.

Dong Gu asked, "Should we take that snake gallstone?"

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "Accept, why not accept."

The law is not passed on lightly. On the mountain, it has never been an empty talk.

After all, the rules of the world are never set up for a small number of special cases.

"The children whose families fasten their belts and send them to school, compared to those whose families can go to school with a little money from their fingernails, the former probably will study more attentively."

Liu Xianyang smiled, "A disciple from an outside sect that I bought with real money, compared to a disciple from Zhu Haifeng who was given to him for free by outsiders, after a long time, which one do you think is more important to the young man? Anyway, I think the former."

"As for the snake gallstone, just keep it in the treasury. In the future, if Li Shenyuan can successfully enter the cave and give it to him in the name of a congratulatory gift, it will be regarded as going around and returning to the original owner."

Dong Gu nodded and said, "It's very old-fashioned to do things like this."

Xu Xiaoqiao also echoed sincerely: "Finally, I have a bit of suzerain demeanor."

Liu Xianyang patted the table, "Remove 'finally', 'somewhat' and 'already'!"

Xu Xiaoqiao laughed, and the senior sister said the four words "sovereign demeanor" in a questioning tone.

Liu Xianyang said helplessly: "I am the suzerain, I really feel bad! Seeing Ruan Tiejiang again, and waiting for Xie Ling to leave the customs, I insist on resigning as suzerain, let Chang Meier be the suzerain for a few days before retiring, the top spot Let Senior Brother Dong or Xu Xiaoqiao sit here, and it will be a good story through the ages, a sect has changed four sect masters in less than 30 years, who can compare with our Longquan Sword Sect?"

A man with an expressionless face walked outside the door.

Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao immediately stood up and called Master.

Liu Xianyang smiled brightly, and quickly asked Credit to add some tableware, while he stood up and moved a place for Master and the elderly, feeling that it was not enough to respect Master, strode out the door, rubbed his hands and said, "Master, why not?" It's hard to hit the iron, and I don't even say hello to my disciples. Look, the taste of these dishes on the table is too spicy, and they only take care of Senior Brother Dong and Senior Sister Xu, and they are all seafood. Is Master used to eating? If not I'm used to it, I'll just cook up two good appetizers..."

Ruan Qiong didn't say a word, and sat on the main seat. Credit Yue brought the bowls and chopsticks and put them gently in his hand. Ruan Qiong nodded in greeting, and his face finally improved a bit.

Xu Xiaoqiao also went to bring a jar of wine and a few white bowls, and poured a bowl for everyone. The master didn't like any fairy wine, and only drank the local roast.

Ruan Qiong picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, then picked up the chopsticks, habitually poked the table lightly, and then began to pick up the vegetables.

Only then did Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao dare to take a sip of the wine with the bowl before picking up the chopsticks.

On the other hand, Liu Xianyang had already started to add vegetables to Master, and soon Ruan Qiong's bowl of rice was full of vegetables.

Ruan Qiong said: "The imperial court wants me to go to the capital, and then accompany His Majesty, who is considered to be a private visit, to Yuzhang County, Hongzhou."

Liu Xianyang said with a smile: "Since your Majesty's private visit is in a micro-service, and it's not the kind of grand tour, why do you put so much effort into it? If the master doesn't want to go to the capital, he will pull it away. If you want to go out to relax, you can go directly to Yuzhang County. If you think If you do this, you will lose face to His Majesty and the court, so I will go instead."

Ruan Qiong shook his head and said: "The letter said it is more straightforward, it must be me."

Liu Xianyang frowned and said, "In Yuzhang County, apart from producing big trees, the court has repeatedly banned the private logging, so a new logging yard has been set up. The only other thing that can be sold is the ancestral home of the current empress dowager. You need to go personally, Master. Have you been there?"

Ruan Qiong said: "The first chief officer of the Logging Academy is Lin Zhengcheng who has just been transferred from the Beijing News Office."

Liu Xianyang asked, "Is that Lin Shouyi's father?"

Ruan Qiong nodded.

Liu Xianyang took a sip of wine and said, "Then let's go."

Ruan Qiong said: "I just informed you that there is such a thing, and I didn't discuss it with you."

Liu Xianyang became annoyed and said, "Tiejiang Ruan, ask yourself, should I be aggrieved or not as suzerain?"

Ruan Qiong ignored Liu Xianyang at all, but turned to look at Credit Yue, and asked, "Miss Yu, when will you become a Taoist couple with Liu Xianyang?"

Credit Yue has always been someone who doesn't treat herself badly at the dinner table, now her mouth is full of food, her cheeks are bulging, she suddenly raised her head with a dazed look on her face.

Ruan Qiong finished drinking a bowl of wine, put it down lightly, and said: "Liu Xianyang usually speaks out of tune, he is still honest, and he is a man who knows how to live. He has traveled far and seen the world, so he can calm down and get married. He You won't mess around with men and women. I didn't say these things when I was his master, Miss Yu, if you think Liu Xianyang is worthy of entrustment, don't delay your marriage."

Credit Yue's face flushed in an instant.

Liu Xianyang was not much better, his ears and neck were flushed.

Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao were also smiling.

Ruan Qiong slightly emphasized the tone, but just repeated the same meaning of the last sentence, "Don't procrastinate."

As Liu Xianyang's master, he is very much in favor of this marriage and will definitely not stop it.

After that, Ruan Qiong didn't continue to pour the wine, but just finished the bowl of rice, got up and left.

Probably leaving the sword-making room this time, this man Liu Xianyang called a blacksmith wanted to say such a thing.

Xu Xiaoqiao cleaned up the dishes with Credit Moon, but Dong Gu said to drink more with Liu Xianyang.

The valley is full of clouds, the moon shines in the sky, and the clear stream in the mountains flows long, but the fish swim as if they are still.

Liu Xianyang got very drunk, but Senior Brother Dong was really drunk. From the beginning, he was still putting on airs as a senior brother, and advised Liu Xianyang, a junior, to get along well with Ms. Yu and never let her down. , otherwise don’t talk about master, he is the first one who can’t spare Liu Xianyang, so what if he becomes the suzerain, doesn’t he recognize senior brother... After drinking, Dong Gu started talking nonsense, saying that he was sorry for master, and he must not Shouldn't it, the most unworthy of being the master's Kaishan disciple, causing the master and the sect to be gossiped behind the back... In the end, Dong Gu's face was full of tears than the wine in his stomach, and Liu Xianyang had to sit in his seat. Beside the senior brother, patiently listened to Dong Gu's over and over again, and stopped the senior brother who was looking for a drink...

Xu Xiaoqiao and Credit Yue didn't go to the house, they just sat in the courtyard, listening to the drunken chatter of the two at the wine table, they turned a blind eye to each other.

In the end, it was Liu Xianyang who carried Dong Gu back to Hengli Peak, and then swayed back to his own Youyi Peak. Liu Xianyang squatted by the cliff alone, drinking to sober up.

Credit month came to him and sat aside.As for the marriage, Credit Moon was actually not that embarrassing, she was just a little caught off guard at the beginning, and then she was awkward. It's not that she doesn't like Liu Xianyang, there's nothing to be hypocritical about.

Although Youyi Peak here is the top of the old Beiyue Mountain, it is next to the Ancestral Mountain moved from Chuzhou, so you can vaguely hear the sound of Ruan Qiong striking iron and casting swords on the other side of Shenxiu Mountain. The whole house is as bright as daytime, looking from the side of Youyi Peak to Zushan Mountain, it is flickering and dimming, just like a lantern hanging in the wind on Shenxiu Mountain, guiding the way for wanderers to return home.

On the Hengli Peak, Dong Gu woke up quickly, rubbed his temples, and felt the familiar breath outside the house. This perennial black-clothed, youthful Nascent Soul Realm got up immediately, opened the door, and called out Sound bridge.Hengli Peak is the sect's treasury and the secret residence where treasures are collected. After Dong Gu entered the Nascent Soul Realm, because he was born as a mountain monster, he was able to practice easily. In addition, Xu Xiaoqiao was not good at or liked business affairs. Gu reluctantly became the accountant of a sect. In fact, the Longquan Sword Sect had very little expenditure but a lot of income. Dong Gu only needed to record those treasures and immortal money, which was not complicated.

Xu Xiaoqiao nodded with a smile, shook a bunch of keys in his hand, and explained: "I can't sleep, so I come to your treasure house to have an eye addiction."

Dong Gu sat on the steps, his head was still a little dizzy, he was no stranger to the habits of junior sisters, otherwise he wouldn't

The treasure house of Longquan Jianzong has a lot of rare objects, worthy of the saying of "a dazzling array of beautiful things", stepping into it is like entering a treasure mountain, Xu Xiaoqiao goes to "tour" it from time to time.

Like Liu Xianyang's sword refining and Xie Ling's breakthrough all the way, they didn't use the wealth of the treasury. In addition, because the master is the chief priest of the dynasty, the generous salary sent by the Dali court regularly, and the Song family used various The spiritual tools, magic weapons, and Dong Gu rewarded by this kind of name are secretly divided into various names that are kept in the dark. Every year, there are five or six sums of immortal money. The Ministry only said that it was acting according to the rules, and refused to say a word.Dong Gu couldn't find the relevant contracts in black and white in the archives room. Dong Gu asked his master several times to know if it was an oral contract between the master and the Dali Song family. The master said he couldn't remember it, just accept it. that is.Later, Dong Gu got used to it, and it felt like he was just lying down and collecting money.

So my own sect is a typical case where there are many people with little money, and there is no place to spend money.

Xu Xiaoqiao said, "Yu Purin at Zhengyang Mountain sent a private letter to Master at the beginning of this year?"

Dong Gu nodded, "The main thing is to apologize to Master, saying that he missed an opportunity because he was young and ignorant, regretted not being able to become Master's direct disciple, and hoped that he could come to make amends in the future. A chance to pay New Year's greetings in the first lunar month. Back then, I didn't quite understand why the master drove them down the mountain. Now it seems that the master is right. Although the talent for sword practice is good, but his conduct is not good, he likes to take advantage of opportunities, so he stays in Longquan Jianzong is not a good thing, Jindan opens the peak, which is equivalent to establishing a family in the mountains, and it will only be a bad thing."

Xu Xiaoqiao sighed, "It's a pity for Liu Yu."

Dong Gu rubbed his face, "It's the most unreasonable thing to say about love between men and women."

It's just such a truth, Dong Gu doesn't want to learn it personally, just talk about it to others.

When the bitter wine is still sweet, the bitterness is like a bottomless pit that can't be filled with boundless mountains and seas.

On the other side of Zhengyang Mountain, there is Yu Jin, the master of Yujiao Peak, a sword cultivator of Jindan Realm, Liu Yu, a direct disciple of Leng Qi, the master of Qiongzhi Peak, a sword cultivator of Longmen Realm, and his natal flying sword "Dihua".

These two talented sword cultivators who are expected to become Taoist companions were both temporarily unnamed disciples who had practiced in Longquan Sword Sect for several years. Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao had all taught on behalf of their teachers.

Back then, Ruan Qiong saved a lot of face for Yulin and let them go down the mountain on their own and switch to other sects.Yu Purlin then ran to Zhengyang Mountain where "sword immortals are like clouds". Among them, Liu Yu, who could have stayed in Shenxiu Mountain, fell in love with Yu Purlin, but Xu Xiaoqiao couldn't keep her. Tao Yanbo of Qiuling Mountain was accepted as his direct heir, and one was chosen by Leng Qi.The last time Liu Xianyang made a fuss about the Zongmen Ceremony of Zhengyang Mountain, both Yu Purlin and Liu Yu appeared to ask swords. Liu Xianyang was very polite to Liu Yu, but very rude to Yu Purlin, which made the latter still a joke on the mountain. There is a saying that "if you ask about the sword, you will fall to the ground and pretend to be dead", but the joke is a joke, and the master of the peak and the golden alchemy sword fairy in their thirties are also true.

Xu Xiaoqiao said for no reason: "It's lucky that Liu Xianyang is on the mountain."

Dong Gu nodded, "If it wasn't for Sect Master Liu, maybe Master would not have spoken a few words to us all year round."

In Liu Xianyang's words, an old man is like a treasure in a family, Dong Gu, you guys, don't think that Master is not the suzerain, so you don't respect him, even though Master is a white man now, but the age is there after all.

If it weren't for Liu Xianyang, the living treasure, Longquan Jianzong would be a very boring hilltop.

Xu Xiaoqiao said: "Assuming you and I were the suzerain, Junior Brother Xie would definitely not argue with us, and he would not be convinced in his heart. Really, there is only Liu Xianyang who can restrain Xie Ling in every way."

Previously, the Chen family in Nanba Suozhou had an old man on the mountain who was good at drawing dragons. He came to the mountain to visit Ruan Qiong, who had been friends for many years, and Liu Xianyang and other juniors accompanied him. In terms of the scene, after all, Liu Xianyang belongs to half of his family. He used to travel and study with Chen Confucianism for ten years. He is an old man who is famous for his exquisite dragon painting. He travels abroad all the year round and has never seen Liu Xianyang.

As a result, Liu Xianyang immediately said, "How did Uncle Chen know that I am a sword fairy in the jade jade realm?"

On the cliffside of Youyi Peak, Liu Xianyang asked softly: "Miss Yu, do you know why Chen Pingan didn't go to the Wild World?"

Credit Yue asked suspiciously: "Hasn't he already been to the hinterland of the wilderness? After making such great contributions, some people think that his title of hidden official is not worthy of the name?"

Regardless of how it was made, he had killed a wild monster who was a sword cultivator at the Ascension Realm anyway, and if he added the relatively imaginary Ascension Realm of Xianzan City, there would be two.

Liu Xianyang smiled and shook his head, "At least in the Confucian Temple, no one thinks so for the time being. And what you said is different from what I asked."

Credit Moon asked, "Then what's the answer?"

Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "I also want to know the answer, so I will ask later."

Credit Yue's eyes lit up immediately, is he going back to the sword shop by the Longxu River?

Liu Xianyang stood up, credited the moon and said happily: "I'm going back now?"

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll go and see that young man who is determined to be apprenticed to Senior Sister Xu first, to see if he is suitable for going up the mountain to practice. If I hit it off, I will compete with Miss Xu as an apprentice!"

Credit Moon waved her hand, "Then I won't go."

Liu Xianyang took a few steps back, waved his arms, jumped a few times, and rushed forward with a vigorous step, jumping out of the cliff, drawing an arc, Liu Xianyang yelled and fell to the ground, echoing, waiting until Liu Xianyang was about to fall to the ground, Only a few feet away from the valley, a bright sword light suddenly appeared, flying like a dragon and snake, and the sword light snaked across the ground, and a series of laughter from Liu Xianyang could be heard, because according to Liu Xianyang, the villain in the book The characters are all smiling, and according to Liu Xianyang's unconstrained ideas, the Longquan Sword Sect's family will have a great career in the future, and when recruiting disciples, one must be careful about those second princes, illegitimate children of wealthy families, and humble people who bear blood and blood. Seemingly mediocre in cultivating the Tao, who suffered humiliation in the teacher's school but forbears it, it is too exhausting for the teacher and the elders, even if there is one or two stalls, it will be unbearable, and it is easy to be sacrificed to the heavens. , with tears in my eyes, I said that the disciple finally got his revenge, and the master knew it...

Credit month sighed, naive is really naive.

In that desolate suburb, Liu Xianyang looked at the thatched shed with the moonlight gradually covering the shabby doors and windows, and knocked on the door.

The teenager in the room was extremely light asleep, and immediately called out vigilantly, "Who?"

Liu Xianyang said with a serious look: "A master from the outside world has traveled here and saw that the boy's bones are strange and he is suitable for going up to the mountain to practice Taoism. He intends to give you a fate."

The sallow-faced and thin boy opened the door, turned his arms around, and by the moonlight, saw a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes standing outside the door, and said, "No need, I am already the unnamed disciple of Zhu Haifeng Xu Xianzi."

Liu Xianyang smiled, he really opened his mouth and came here, it's a bit hit and miss.

Because Liu Xianyang traveled far away to study for many years, and later the Longquan Sword Sect was established, he returned from Nanba Suozhou, and only stayed in the abandoned shop by the Longxu River. He rarely visited Huaihuang County, let alone the place. Zhoucheng, and this young man was born and raised in Zhoucheng according to his age.Therefore, it is normal for the young man not to recognize the suzerain of the Longquan Sword Sect in front of him.As for why the young man recognized Xu Xiaoqiao, maybe it was because she and Dong Bancheng jointly opened a Xianjia inn in Zhoucheng?Senior Sister Xu herself is not good at dealing with business, but she is good at dealing with people who are good at making money. She has a lot of private money, and the dowry is not thin!

Liu Xianyang strode into the house, took out an oil lamp from his sleeve, twirled his fingers, the light was yellowish, illuminating the thatched cottage.

The boy always faced the unexpected guest.

Liu Xianyang looked around and saw that the house was completely bare and the air leaked from all sides. He looked familiar, turned his head and introduced himself with a smile: "My name is Liu Xianyang. I have never seen it before. I must have heard of the name. It belongs to the Longquan Sword Sect." The current suzerain, so Zhu Haifeng Xu Xiaoqiao is my senior sister."

The tense young man finally let go of his defenses, with an embarrassed look on his face, because the hand wrapped around his back was still holding a hatchet. On this trip, the only thing he depended on for his life was a package containing some heavy clothes, and another This hatchet used for self-defense and road opening, as for the scraps of silver and copper coins that were first bought from selling antiques at home, they had already been used up on the road.In fact, before this trip, the young man had already secretly run away from home twice, but he returned in vain. He suffered a lot, but he had accumulated some experience, otherwise he would not have been able to reach the Longquan Sword Sect.

There was no table or stool in the room, so Liu Xianyang sat by the bed, and asked with a smile: "Since you have a snake gallstone, why don't you sell it for money? No matter how much gambling debts the family owes, they should be able to repay them all at once, I guess. There is still a lot of surplus, so you don’t have to worry about finding a seller, not to mention Dong Shuijing’s inn, even if you go directly to the county government office to ask for a price, you will be accepted, and you will be guaranteed a fair price.”

Li Shenyuan's expression was gloomy. The skinny young man looked down at the dilapidated straw sandals on his feet, "I'm too young to keep money, so I don't care whoever I trade this snake gallstone that my grandfather secretly left me. If you have too much money, you won’t be able to keep it, and it will only be used by the elders in the family to gamble and ruin it.”

Liu Xianyang asked: "Have you ever attended school or read books?"

"Reporting to Sect Master Liu, I passed the county government's two exams very early, and I was born as a child."

The young man raised his head, with a slight smile on his withered and thin face, "Last year, I was supposed to take the examination for the abbot of Xuezheng Master, but there was no wife who was willing to help me as a guarantor, so I failed to enter Pan to become a scholar."

Liu Xianyang nodded. Speaking of which, neither he nor Chen Pingan had any fame, let alone a scholar, and now he is not even a child.In the Confucian Academy, both of them couldn't even get a sage.

In fact, Li Shenyuan did not tell the whole truth. In fact, the young man just failed to participate in the second re-examination, and the previous two county examinations, the young man was the top case. As long as he continues to participate in the hospital examination, it is very likely that he can be the first again. , this is in the examination room, that is, a scholar can brag about three small yuan in a row for a lifetime.

As for why the young man concealed the truth, it was because of His Holiness.The relatives in a family are often good and fair, and when the hearts of the people are slackened, the bad are all kinds of bad. There are unimaginable dirty thoughts and endless dirty tricks. Li Shenyuan is only fourteen years old now, and his family was considered wealthy when he was born. , although it is a shell that is about to be hollowed out, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and it is still much better than ordinary wealthy people.It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, just look at how the rich people around you live a rich life, and you can learn it quickly. It is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Li Shenyuan's family is like this. These years, I have been complaining every day, or I just want to make money from the side, but it is so easy to earn money from the side, and I have been cheated many times by those experts in the city, and there are even people who cheat marriages, Li Shenyuan An uncle of mine ended up with nothing but personal wealth.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "You are right to choose to leave the house, if you don't save yourself, if you don't make a cut with the family, this life will be over."

The desperate young man smiled bitterly. His idea was very simple. He only hoped to become a registered disciple of Longquan Sword Sect, and then go back to clean up the mess.

Otherwise, in the family, he is soft-spoken and a junior, so all the reasons are unreasonable.

Liu Xianyang stood up, "Okay, okay, don't make a bitter face, follow me up the mountain."

Li Shenyuan said pleasantly: "It is Xu Xianzi who is willing to accept me as an apprentice."

Now that he had the idea of ​​robbing his apprentice, Liu Xianyang began to play tricks and put eye drops on Senior Sister Xu, "She thinks that your kid's qualifications are too poor. Jianxiu, I talked all kinds of things on the mountain before I persuaded her, the head of the sect, to allow you to practice on the mountain. So instead of cooking Haifeng, I went to Youyi Peak. As an anonymous disciple, whether you can enter the hall and become this person's personal heir by chance depends on your future fortune."

Li Shenyuan was a little disappointed, but it wasn't the worst outcome after all. There was no need to just make a trip in vain and go back home. The young man followed Liu Xianyang out of the house and asked curiously, "Sect Master Liu, can I ask you, where is Youyi Peak?" A sword fairy's dojo?"

The reason why Li Shenyuan insisted on apprenticeship with Xu Xiaoqiao was because the young man once saw this kind-looking immortal teacher on the streets of Zhoucheng, and thought she was a good person.

Liu Xianyang handed the oil lamp in his hand to the young man beside him, and said with a smile, "It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of us."

Li Shenyuan held the oil lamp in his hand, stopped in his tracks, speechless, but did not forget to extend his arms to protect the lamp.

Liu Xianyang said seriously: "I will take you all the way to Youyi Peak on foot. There is a strong wind in the mountain. If the lights go out, it means that you and I don't have the fate of master and apprentice."

The young man's face became tense for a moment, sweat dripped from his forehead, he immediately unbuttoned his shirt, and protected the lamp in his shirt to avoid the mountain wind.

Afterwards, Li Shenyuan cautiously followed Sect Master Liu along the mountain road to the Youyi Peak. If there was a headwind, the young man would walk backwards on the mountain road.

The wind in the mountains is really strong, and you can often see dead pines falling between the ravines, and the wind blows like waves. In addition, Youyi Peak is not as smooth as Zushan, and the path is especially winding and rugged. The young man can walk, add some water-crossing roads, or narrow stone beams covered with moss, or a dead pine tree as a single-plank bridge. Seeking Tao, I came to Longquan Jianzong on foot all the way, and I am used to trekking mountains and rivers. Otherwise, let alone protecting the lights from being blown out by the mountain wind while walking, I am afraid that I would have exhausted my strength just to climb the mountain alone.

Liu Xianyang stopped halfway up the mountain, letting the dizzy young man rest for a while, so that he could regain his energy before continuing to climb.

Before this, Liu Xianyang walked fast and sometimes slow, and occasionally reminded the young man behind him to pay attention to the rhythm of his breathing.

At this moment Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous, you have already walked most of the distance."

Li Shenyuan's lips were chapped, and he was not in a relaxed mood.

With his hands behind his back, Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "There are endless things in the world, but there are limited cups on the table. There is a new year every year, and next year the flowers will be even better."

Seeing that the young man did not join in, Liu Xianyang had no choice but to ask: "What do you think?"

"The poem Sect Master Liu recited impromptu has a very good meaning. It has the taste of the master's own words, but...it doesn't rhyme, it doesn't conform to the rhythm of the poem, and there are...suspects of ambiguity."

"The evaluation is so good, don't evaluate it in the future."

After that, the two continued to climb the mountain. When they were approaching the top of the mountain, Li Shenyuan suddenly slipped and fell to the ground. The oil lamp rolled to the ground and the light went out.

The young man sat on the ground blankly, he didn't know whether it was because he was extremely exhausted or because he was caught off guard, he couldn't care less about being sad for a moment.

Liu Xianyang squatted aside and said with a smile: "It turns out that you really have no fate with this peak."

Li Shenyuan's falls and misses were of course Liu Xianyang's deliberate actions.

Well, this peak is called Zhuhai Peak.

My own Yiyi Peak is in another place.

Li Shenyuan silently picked up the oil lamp, wiped it carefully with his sleeve, and handed it back to Sect Master Liu.

As soon as he handed over the oil lamp, the boy burst into tears instantly.

During the hard climb up the mountain, the young man guarded the light, as if he was carrying a sliver of hope. Once the light was extinguished, the hope of the young man was completely gone. However, unlike before when he came to the Longquan Sword Sect and was rejected, The young man still refused to accept his fate, he was unwilling to leave, and he was unwilling to leave at this point. When he climbed the mountain tonight, he fell the oil lamp. The young man seemed to have finally accepted his fate, and he didn't have so much unwillingness anymore.

On the top of the mountain, Xu Xiaoqiao, who had been observing the young man silently, couldn't help but said to Liu Xianyang with his heart: "Sect Master Liu, I accept this direct disciple."

It's rare to call Liu Xianyang the Sovereign Liu, she must be very serious.

Liu Xianyang turned a deaf ear to it, and exchanged the lamp to Li Shenyuan again, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Li Shenyuan, before you formally seek the Tao, you must first understand a truth. A lamp with a heart is always bright, and it is the most immortal. It only needs a single lamp to shine forever. What is cultivating the Tao?

Li Shenyuan followed Liu Xianyang's finger to point, and saw a ray of light in the mountain road, either straight or round, gradually rising to his side.

At the same time, the oil lamp in the boy's hand suddenly lit up again.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "Now I'll give you a choice, should you worship Xu Xiaoqiao as your teacher, or follow me to Youyi Peak to learn Taoism?"

The boy's answer made Liu Xianyang smile knowingly, but Xu Xiaoqiao was greatly surprised that Li Shenyuan still decided to practice in Zhuhaifeng.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said: "There are only a few steps away from the top of the mountain. Go by yourself. Senior Sister Xu is waiting for you. When you see me in the future, you should call me Suzerain instead of Master. Don't regret it. By the way, this lamp The oil lamp is an ancient relic, and its rank is not low, so it should be regarded as a meeting gift for my suzerain."

Turning into a sword light, Liu Xianyang returned to Youyi Peak, and Credit Moon asked doubtfully, "Why did you give up your disciple to Xu Xiaoqiao?"

Liu Xianyang laughed and said: "Actually, I regretted it halfway through. Taking an apprentice is like having a lot of oil bottles behind your buttocks. It takes a lot of work. Besides, it's better to be a master and uncle than to be called a master." Relaxed and cozy."

Seeing on credit that he was unwilling to tell the truth, she didn't care what the truth was.

Liu Xianyang said seriously: "I'm going to retreat."

Credit Moon said, "Can we have dinner together tomorrow morning?"

Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "I will try my best to strive for tomorrow next year, so that we can have breakfast together."

Credit Yue asked strangely: "It's just a doze, how long does it take?"

Liu Xianyang nodded and said: "It's really different this time. I met a strange person in my dream earlier, and I couldn't see the other person's face clearly. If I didn't guess wrong, he is very likely to be one of the ten heroes of the ancient world. An unknown swordsman, who met at an ancient battlefield site earlier, he actually noticed my presence, but we didn't chat, the other party was probably shocked by my sword practice aptitude, when he was clearing up the battlefield, he Lost a look at me, what kind of brain am I, I understood it at that time."

To put it lightly, in fact, Liu Xianyang's hairs stood on end at the time, and the other party just gave him a sharp look, Liu Xianyang was almost about to be knocked out of his dream directly.

Credit Yue asked: "What do you understand?"

Liu Xianyang said: "This senior begged me to learn swordsmanship with him."

Credit Moon hesitated for a moment, and reminded: "That guy seems to have been famous in ancient times for his high personality, bad temper, and not being close to anyone. Take it easy."

Liu Xianyang laughed and said: "When I was in Lizhu Cave, I was the only one when it comes to the relationship between elders."

Credit Yue was dubious, "Can it be better than Chen Yinguan?"

Liu Xianyang was unhappy when he heard that, he raised his feet, put on a golden rooster independent posture, stretched out his hand and patted his knee, "If it compares to this, Chen Pingan's ability can only come to me."

Credit month likes to hear these, she nodded with a smile.

Liu Xianyang squatted down, and had a few more leisurely chats with Ms. Yu before going to retreat.

When they enter the fairyland, he and Ms. Yu will be a veritable couple of gods and immortals.

In fact, when Xie Ling retreated, he became the Jade Raw Realm.Longquan Jianzong has three sword immortals at the same time.

Besides, isn't Miss Yu one of the top ten young people in the world?In the past, Chen Ping'an was on the top of this list, No.11, and he was the bottom of the list.

Credit Moon saw that he was not in a hurry to retreat, so she continued to sit aside and asked, "Master Ruan doesn't seem to have any idea about breaking through?"

Especially after Liu Xianyang entered the upper five realms and took over as suzerain, Ruan Qiong was even less concerned.

Liu Xianyang grinned from ear to ear, "Blacksmith Ruan's aptitude is not as good as mine, and the Jade Raw Realm has reached its peak. Besides, Blacksmith Ruan prefers to forge swords, and is not very interested in the cultivation itself."

Credit Moon said in a low voice: "I heard from Xu Xiaoqiao that Master Ruan resigned as chief priest twice, but the emperor did not agree."

Cao Rong, a Daoist celestial being from the old Great Frost Dynasty.Pu Tie, a bone swordsman born in Luzhou Skeleton Beach, Beiju.In addition, Liu Boqi, the female crown who claims to be the knife house of the Master of the Upside Down Mountain.

These few are all candidates for worship that the Dali Song Clan tried their best to win over but couldn't find it. When the war ended, they all left gracefully and traveled to other continents.

Thinking of this, Liu Xianyang twitched his lips. The Dali court probably didn't have plans to enrich the power of worship and deepen the heritage on the mountain. If it weren't for these strange people and strangers who had a closer relationship with Song Jixin, the little coquettish bag, Emperor Song He would definitely spend more money. A lot of thought to keep.In fact, Liu Xianyang and Song Jixin have been at odds for a long time, one dislikes the other's powerlessness, and the other despises the other's poverty and vulgarity.

Liu Xianyang said: "Don't worry, Song He is very good at being a man, at least when he is the emperor, he will never allow Ruan Blacksmith to step down as chief priest."

Credit Moon sighed: "There is no such twists and turns in the wilderness."

Liu Xianyang said: "When I leave the customs, I plan to take a trip to Hongzhou, I always feel that there is something weird."

Credit moon nodded and said: "Don't they say that it is the place where the twelve sword immortals in ancient times became immortals? You are a sword cultivator. If you have a sense of heart, you are on the right track. And I heard that there are indeed some legends that have been passed down from generation to generation. An ancient custom, which means "entertaining the gods and leaving the old, the art of eternal life". According to your Haoran Tianxia, ​​the earliest method of sacrifice was in the witches, then in the historians, and then in the scholar-bureaucrats. Besides, there have been mountains and giant trees since ancient times. The place is often the place of sacrifice."

After hesitating for a while, Credit Moon still didn't bring someone in, otherwise Liu Xianyang would bring the other party with him, if he really went to visit the secluded place, explore the hidden treasures and seek treasures, he would definitely have a better grasp. It can make the sky three feet high.

Liu Xianyang smiled brightly, as the old saying goes, marry a wife and marry a virtuous person, besides, Miss Yu is more than virtuous.

Credit Moon suddenly said: "Liu Xianyang, are you really thinking about it?"

Liu Xianyang was confused, "What are you thinking about?"

Credit Moon stared, "Are you pretending to be stupid? My identity cannot be hidden after all."

She doesn't care, but Liu Xianyang is the master of the sect after all, just like Dong Gu's eyes were blurred when he drank at the wine table because of his knot.

Liu Xianyang smiled, "Miss Yu, is she afraid that outsiders will gossip? There is nothing to worry about. Whoever makes me unhappy, I will make him unhappy. Whoever likes to gossip, and I happen to be relatively free. One counts as one, and the other Don't let it go."

"So if you're only worried about me, there's no need to worry about it. We don't have to worry about it."

Credit Yue whispered, "Are you not paying attention at all?"

Liu Xianyang grinned and said, "I must have argued with them one by one, so I don't care anymore."

Credit Yue seemed to be satisfied with this, a small dimple appeared on Yuanyuan's face.

Liu Xianyang, who was holding the back of his head with both hands, remembered something, took out a seal from his sleeve, held it in the palm of his hand, and stroked it gently.

Credit month knows who gave that seal to Liu Xianyang.

Although Liu Xianyang often talks about being young, she still doesn't quite understand how Liu Xianyang and Chen Pingan have such a good relationship, and the latter is even willing to regard the former as an older brother.

Credit Yue has always felt that a young Yinguan who is so smart is unlikely to be willing to rely on others, especially for things he believes in, he will be extraordinarily firm, and his Dao heart cannot be moved in the slightest.But on Liu Xianyang's side, Chen Ping'an seems to be very persuasive.

The thing that makes her feel unreasonable the most is that Liu Xianyang's heart is wider than the sky, but Chen Pingan's mind is deep, one is too lazy to think about anything, even if the sky falls, the matter at hand will not be delayed, and the other is like a sesame seed on the roadside You have to pick it up and try to figure out the origin. It is said that the relationship between friends can last long because of similar personalities. Liu and Chen have diametrically opposite personalities.

Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "Do you think it's strange?"

Credit Moon knew that Liu Xianyang knew what she was thinking, so she nodded, "Isn't it strange?"

Liu Xianyang shook his head, "Actually, it's not surprising, because he has always been the least courageous, and he won't grow up."

A young man can grow a young man.

Chen Ping'an can grow up a teenager.
