The Jindan monk suddenly laughed and said: "Young Master turns out to be a disciple of the Legalist School, no wonder."
Chen Ping'an didn't know why the other party had this misunderstanding.
This Earth Immortal, who should be very familiar with the world and customs of Qingluan Kingdom, said with a smile: "That's the time to discuss and learn from each other."
The mountain col suddenly became tense.
Yamazawa Yexiu is used to the scene of people turning against each other and not recognizing others. People die for money and birds die for food. Who wouldn't be happy to earn an extra fifty yuan? Of course you have to earn clean money. Why have you earned less dirty money?
Those casual cultivators who were recruited by the imperial government, or those who asked for a consecrated title from the Genealogy Immortal Family, to help them obtain amulets, most likely did a shady deed first, such as helping the imperial court assassinate enemy generals and civil servants.
, for the Immortal Genealogy Master to resolve those vendettas and grievances that are not suitable for personal action.
The Golden Elixir Earth Immortal looked around leisurely, as if inspecting the battlefield.
Chen Ping'an asked: "Do you know that once the Tu Niu chooses to turn its back and affect the earth's veins, tens of thousands of people will be affected?"
The Earth Immortal hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said frankly: "Of course you know this when you reach my level."
Nabo Shanze Yexiu was not too surprised by this.
Only formation master Lu Yangzhen frowned, but he hid it very well.
Chen Pingan asked again: "Then can you control earthquakes?"
The Earth Immortal did not give a direct answer, but smiled and said: "This is not simple. According to what your friend said, either relying on burning money to lay out magic circles on a large scale to stabilize the earth's veins and reduce earthquake turmoil, or it requires Qi Practitioners to possess similar skills.
Only by refining the innate spiritual treasure of the Li Pearl into a natal object can it 'fix the mountain and submerge the pulse'."
Seeing that Chen Pingan stopped asking questions, the Earth Immortal looked at Chen Pingan carefully again and said, "See you later."
The Jindan cultivators seemed to have given up on the idea of "discussing" and looked at the backbone of the scattered cultivators on the mountain, such as the old man in black robes who rode a five-tailed black fox, and the formation master Lu Yangzhen.
The remaining reward beyond that is then left in the wind.
All the loose cultivators followed the Earth Immortal and left, but in a slightly different direction. Presumably the Golden Elixir cultivator would pay the immortal money to the four groups at different times and in different places, so that the undisciplined cultivators would not worry about the lack of numbers but the inequality.
Zhang Shanfeng lightly punched Chen Ping'an and joked: "Okay, use the Xiaoshu money as snow money."
Xu Yuanxia had already stood up, sheathed her sword, and combed her blood-caked beard from top to bottom with her fingers, "It's safe for the time being, but I'm afraid that this Jindan Immortal is a local snake with evil intentions. If it really can't be done, we can
Just don’t wait for the debate on Buddhism and Taoism in the capital of Qingluan Kingdom, it’s better to leave as soon as possible.”
Zhang Shanfeng hesitated and said: "The Zhenwu sword that Chen Ping'an lent me and your short sword are just left in the Governor's Mansion?"
Chen Pingan corrected: "It's not borrowing."
Although Xu Yuanxia felt distressed, she still looked resolute, "It's such a big Governor's Mansion, and it doesn't have long legs. There will always be a chance to get it back in the future. Once the Governor's Mansion is the mastermind of this siege, we will fall into the trap of Qingluan Tang Dynasty."
The Emperor has always been unruly, and the Grand Governor is the direct confidant of the Emperor Tang. We can easily become the target of public criticism, and we can’t explain why. If someone throws dirty water at us, we won’t be able to hide."
Zhang Shanfeng once had the temperament of never looking back until he hit the southern wall. Otherwise, he would not have abandoned Confucianism and Taoism and went to the mountains to become a Taoist priest. This trip from Beiju Luzhou to the south of Aopingzhou was a rich experience, with many setbacks and gains.
I have matured a lot. After listening to Xu Yuanxia's explanation, I no longer insist on my own opinions.
Chen Pingan thought for a long time before he came up with a reasonable explanation that would not only prevent Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia from being involved in his own misfortune, but also allow them to go to the Governor's Mansion with peace of mind, "I am with Tongyezhou's family.
The academy has an opportunity and got a jade tablet, which can be used to save lives at critical moments. Although Qingluan country is full of fish and dragons nowadays, we cannot take it lightly, but there is that... jade tablet that is equivalent to the personal visit of the gentleman of the academy. Ordinary Jindan Yuanying would not dare to
The killer was killed. So it won’t be a big problem if we get back the Zhenwu sword and the short knife."
It is indeed important to treat people with sincerity when dealing with things, but if you put them in danger and encounter a disaster similar to Chen Ping'an's encounter with Du Mao, then it is not called sincere, but heartless and ignorant of the world.
.
Pei Qian and the four picture scrolls had already approached.
They were all very curious about the identities of the young Taoist priest and the bearded knight. It seemed that they were not fellow villagers of Chen Pingan, but friends they had met on their previous travels.
Wei Xian and the other two people could all see that the young Taoist priest was just an average Qi practitioner, and the bearded swordsman was a fifth-level martial artist with acceptable foundation. Is that all?
Pei Qian had been secretly looking at the two of them. Now she was holding a hiking stick and hanging bamboo swords made by Chen Pingan at her waist. She stood next to Chen Pingan and said with a smile: "Hello, Brother Taoist, Uncle Swordsman."
Well, my name is Pei Qian, and I am my master’s founding disciple!”
Xu Yuanxia laughed heartily and earned a seniority in vain.
Although Zhang Shanfeng was stabbed on the shoulder by the sword cultivator's flying sword and after applying the golden sore medicine, his face was still a little pale. But when he saw the skinny girl who claimed to be Chen Ping'an's disciple, the young Taoist priest raised the corners of his mouth and said to the little girl
He smiled and said hello: "Hello Pei Qian, how old are you?"
Pei Qian smiled and said: "You are only seven years old, that's why you are so tall."
Chen Pingan went down with a chestnut.
Pei Qian, who wanted to save face and suffer the consequences, immediately cried and said: "I am actually eleven years old."
Chen Pingan turned around, squatted down, and turned to look at Xu Yuanxia, "What should I do if I am so seriously injured?"
Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng squatted down together. The bearded man stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "I'm not talking about the sneaky Earth Immortal Golden Pill. I'm just talking about the wild cultivators riding the black fox. Their minds are not right. If we just let them go like this,
If you don't care about the earth cow, you will die early or late. What you said before is true. No one's money falls from the sky and is blown by the strong wind. Send the Buddha to the west and let it be in this true form for the time being.
Stay with us until your injuries get better and find a place where you can hide your body. It won't be too late to separate. But then, Chen Ping'an, the burden on your shoulders will be heavier."
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "It's been a long time since we last seen each other, and now we're seeing each other like this?"
Xu Yuanxia laughed and said, "It doesn't cost me any money to be polite."
Pei Qian is like a chicken pecking at rice, and he takes it for granted that it is really free to say polite words and flattery. This bearded uncle should be regarded as one of his own.
Compared to Pei Qian, the four people in the scroll saw more and thought further.
The four people on Wei Xian and Sui's right have never seen Chen Ping'an ask other people's opinions and listen naturally, and everything will fall into place. You must know that there are many fights and killings along the way with the four of them. Sui's right
He had died so many times. Chen Ping'an's various performances showed that he was extremely tough, tenacious and assertive, but at the same time he showed enough respect for the four of them. Even Wei Xian had to admit that he was flattering.
The so-called "overlord talents" of Chen Pingan are actually not very high. If left in the troubled times of Lotus Root Blessed Land, Chen Pingan might be his opponent on the battlefield.
Chen Ping'an looked at the yellow native cow and asked, "Can you appear in human form? If I remember correctly, you should be able to transform into a human form if you enter the Sea Viewing Realm or the Dragon Gate Realm? I have a bottle of healing elixir. If you
The effect is better when taken by humans."
Before leaving Old Dragon City, Mrs. Gui brought a treasure box made of osmanthus wood, which contained twelve bottles of elixirs. She did not spend a lot of money, each bottle was needed by the earth immortal, but
Every step in the middle five realms is the most cost-effective and affordable.
After hearing Chen Ping'an's question, the Dragon Gate level monster that had hurt the foundation of Dao Dao shook its head.
Zhang Shanfeng explained: "Compared with the ordinary mountain spirit-water monster, it is rather special, just like the water dragon. The purer the five elements, the more difficult it is to transform into a human form. To do this, you need to reach the golden elixir realm.
"
Chen Ping'an suddenly realized, nodded and said: "It's okay. When we go to the Governor's Mansion this time, we will try our best to bypass the big county towns and choose mountain and river paths."
Zhang Shanfeng smiled and said: "We are already familiar with each other. We have visited many places in Qingluan and Qingshan Kingdom in the past two years."
When Chen Ping'an took out an elixir suitable for Longmen realm Qi practitioners, the yellow earth cow took a stick of incense and was able to struggle to get up. Although it was still covered with crisscrossing wounds, he could walk without any hindrance. After all, there are earth monsters in the world.
, is known for its toughness and amazing endurance. Moreover, this Dragon Gate realm monster said frankly that he had refined a green-glazed landscape bottle as one of his natal objects, which could contain and accumulate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Chen Ping'an heard the elegant meaning and went straight to the point.
He gave all the bottle of elixir to the yellow earth cow, and let it be put into the natal green glaze bottle, slowly absorbing the medicinal spiritual energy to heal his wounds.
After the yellow earth ox stepped on the ground with all four feet, there were tears in his eyes. He stared at the young man in a snow-white robe in front of him, "Immortal Master Gao Feng, how can I repay you?"
It felt guilty and uneasy and said: "I have practiced here for more than two hundred years, but I only took a fancy to the dragon veins here. The two spiritual weapons and magic weapons I accidentally obtained before have been refined into life objects. In addition, I have not grabbed any heavenly materials or earthly treasures.
Immortal Master has not only saved my life, but also has the virtue to continue my path..."
Pei Qian sighed.
Blame me.
Why did I become a loser again just after I left Old Dragon City? I almost lost two snow coins on the Fengwei Ferry side, and I even lost money to my grandma's house in this mountain col.
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you have to be sincere. When you recover from your injuries and form a golden elixir, you can travel far and wide with your body. In the future, you can go to my hometown, where there are beautiful mountains and clear waters and abundant spiritual energy. You are welcome to be my guest..."
When Chen Ping'an said this, Xu Yuanxia said with deep meaning: "Why wait until the pill is formed? After recovering from the injury, just go directly to your hometown. Maybe you can directly form the pill there. There is a saint to control your luck, so there is no need."
I’m worried about causing an accident where the earth cow turns upside down.”
The yellow native cow's eyes were confused, as if he didn't understand.
Chen Pingan carefully thought about whether this matter was feasible. Xu Yuanxia already smiled and said: "Don't worry, we can still walk a long way through the mountains and rivers. Let's see if we have the right temperament before making a decision. If the temperament is not compatible, it is better to leave it alone."
My impression is that it is better to meet again by fate in the future than to get along day and night, only to end up with something bad, and a good relationship is wasted."
Zhang Shanfeng agreed: "It's feasible."
Chen Pingan has no objections.
The group of people walked slowly, leaving the mountain col and heading towards the famous Governor's Mansion of Qingluan Kingdom.
Chen Pingan talked with Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia about their travels.
The two also told Chen Ping'an about their story after the separation of Qingfufang.
————
The Tang royal family of Qingluan Kingdom has always been granted the title of king but not a vassal. The princes, counties and kings all stay in the capital and have their own mansions. Moreover, these mansions only have the right of residence but no ownership. Once they lose their titles, they will be taken back by the clan government.
The Qingluan Kingdom has five major governor's offices. In addition to the four governorates on the four sides, there is also one in the central region. It has great power and is responsible for water transportation, salt and iron and many other lifeline affairs of the country. Ordinary monarchs are afraid of avoiding the "powerful ministers".
"The harm of the handle, the worry of separatist vassal towns." In the hundreds of years of history of Qingluan Kingdom, the weather has been smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the generals and ministers are in harmony. It has always been so good that outsiders can't figure it out. Is it possible that these high-ranking and distant feudal officials are
, no one has ever had any ambition in life? Each and every one of them fulfilled their duties and dedicated themselves to the emperor of the Tang Dynasty until their death?
No matter what, the Qingluan Kingdom located in the southeast of Aquarius Continent is like a paradise, a pure land. Especially after the war in the central part of the country was in full swing, it triggered several waves of scholars to go south and abandon their clothes and clothes to the north. Qingluan, Qingshan
The Three Kingdoms of Yunxiao and Yunxiao have attracted tens of thousands of descendants of wealthy nobles who migrated south, among which the Qingluan Kingdom has the largest number.
The current five governors of Qingluan Kingdom, the four close to the border, all relied on their battlefield exploits or their status as relatives to lead the army. Only the governor's house in the middle has always been named Wei, and the current owner relied on Zu Yin.
Hereditary, passed down from generation to generation, and for the past three hundred years, the family's incense has been supported by a single seedling. It seems to be crumbling, but it just refuses to fall. He has been the "hardcore crop" governor for more than three hundred years.
Today's Governor Wei, the dignitary of the Qingluan Kingdom who asked Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia for the Zhenwu Sword and the Dagger, stopped traveling around the mountains and rivers and roamed in the woods after the hereditary death, but lived in seclusion, but relying on
Various deeds in his early years were rumored, and he was well-known among the Qingluan Three Kingdoms. He was good at Qingci, cursive calligraphy, annotating Buddhist scriptures and painting Buddhist statues. Especially the latter, there was a saying that he was "unique for a while", and it was difficult to find a single painting in the government and the public. About
This Governor Wei, who was in his prime, had an excellent reputation in the Shilin literary circles. He was praised as having a unique grace, a clear and clear manner, and as solemn as the wind under a pine... Among the ladies and ladies of the capital, he received rave reviews.
, it is rumored that when the governor was on a study tour, he went to the mountains to visit immortals with several worldly friends. He was mistaken by the woodcutter for a banished immortal, so he kowtowed and worshiped, exclaiming that he was an immortal.
This time Qingluan Kingdom holds a huge debate on Buddhism and Taoism in the capital, Governor Wei will go to the capital to take charge of the safety of the capital, and is allowed to lead 6,000 elite troops northward and station them in important areas of the capital!
The Tang emperor's reliance and trust in this person can be seen.
So much so that there are some gossips in the world, saying that the monarch and his ministers are so good at cutting sleeves. You must know that for this debate on Buddhism and Taoism, the two monarchs of the Yan family of Yunxiao Kingdom and the He family of Qingshan Kingdom will come to the capital of Qingluan Kingdom.
, and it is even more strange that Governor Wei led his troops to the north, so that two monarchs from other countries regarded it as normal and did not regret it.
On this day, a burly young man came to visit the Governor's Mansion without disturbing outsiders.
The Grand Governor Wei Liang was entertaining guests in his study. Wei Liang was only in his thirties and was born like a jade tree.
Wei Liang held a high position, but he treated the young man very casually. He was neither distantly polite nor deliberately enthusiastic. And the burly young man was obviously an old acquaintance of the Grand Governor and did not face Wei Liang.
Instead of sitting down, I stood under the bookshelf and looked through it.
Wei Liang smiled and said: "Jiang Yun, it seems that the family favors you and is willing to leave this matter to you. In this way, I will save worry and effort. When the time comes, I will be in the light and you will be in the dark. I believe
This debate on Buddhism and Taoism in late spring will not cause much trouble."
The burly young man is the one who lives at the end of the alley in Fengweidu. He probably left Xianjiadu, half of his hometown, and used the iron chain "belt" around his waist that was refined into a life object as a cover-up to avoid being seen in the town market.
Drawing attention.
A young man named Jiang Yun flipped through a book. There were many narrations and annotations, and they were mixed with black ink and red ink. It was obvious that the Governor Wei Liang had read this book more than once.
Jiang Yun turned around and said: "Old Wei, you must not take it lightly. Your Majesty the Emperor has made such a big mistake. The situation is very complicated now. In addition to me, there seems to be someone lurking in the family, and his cultivation is absolutely perfect."
Not low."
Wei Liang smiled but said nothing.
Jiang Yun was a little helpless, "The small Qingluan Kingdom dared to hold a debate on Buddhism and Taoism, and deliberately created such a big battle. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not understand the dangers of the dispute between the three religions. Old Wei, you don't understand? We say
Lin Jiang, how did you migrate to Aquarius Continent in the first place? When I left Fengweidu this time, I specially picked some lively places along the way. It is no exaggeration to say that the streets are full of Qi practitioners now, and the place is still like this.
Not to mention your capital city, are you really not afraid?"
Wei Liang placed a wooden box on the table. After opening it, a cold light suddenly filled the room. He took out a "wen-sword" from the wooden box and said with a smile: "Because of the relationship between your master and the teacher, you will treat Shan Ze
Ye Xiu has sympathy, but I will not do this. Before the end of spring, as long as there is a rogue cultivator with a criminal record, whether he committed a crime in Qingluan Kingdom or elsewhere, I will fish the net several times, whether dead or alive.
Behave according to the rules, even one rat droppings can ruin a pot of porridge, let alone a nest of imported snakes and rats."
Written by famous people, the sword, although it is a trivial thing, is regarded as "the armament of a gentleman".
In the wooden box on the table in front of Wei Liang, there are nearly ten "ancestral knives" neatly placed, roughly divided into two types: long-standing book knives and paper knives for cutting rice paper.
The former is also called a sharpening knife. In ancient times, only bamboo and wood slips could be used to record text. The small knife used to repair slips is called a book knife. It was first made of bronze and later made of iron. Today's various precious materials are actually more for people to play with.
, the purpose of collection has lost its original function.
Wei Liang was holding knives in each hand at the moment, two paper knives.
A paper knife with bamboo yellow veneer and the scabbard on the table is engraved with the words "Made by Zhensongdang".
A white jade carved dragon pattern gilt "Gongguan Bairen" knife.
Jiang Yun put the book back and sighed with a complicated expression, "So you just set up a trap to kill so many wild cultivators in one go?"
"Anyone who commits unjust acts will be punished by his own death. It was quite difficult for me to deal with the Immortal Masters of Genealogy on the Mountain. If I didn't directly kill these wild cultivators, I would burn incense on their graves. Of course, I also have some selfish reasons for going to such trouble, but there are some good ones.
A mere mediocre person has now become the eyes and ears of my house, and will play a big role in the future. You see, the world is so simple and clear when it comes to acting with principles."
While speaking, Wei Liang never raised his head, staring at the "Gongguan" knife with exquisite patterns, and then gently tapped the knife with the bamboo carving knife. The sound was crisp and clear. He closed his eyes and listened, enjoying it very much.
Although Jiang Yun had a good personal relationship with Wei Liang, he was still a little annoyed, "You don't care whether what you do is a good law or a bad law?"
"Evil laws are still laws."
After he opened his eyes, he looked calm, changed the subject, and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about these things that are destined to be discussed by chickens and ducks. This time when I went out, I met a disciple of the same school as me. It was very interesting.
His friend also left two things in my house. If you are interested, you can stay a few more days."
