There was a farce on the bow of the ship, with heavy thunder and little rain.
Because the sword cultivator sacrificed his natal flying swords, and there were two abnormal ones, and there was no blood in the end?
The spectators found it not very enjoyable.
The ferry carried two hundred people, and there was a lot of discussion for a while. For the Qingluan people, whether it was the genealogy master traveling down the mountain, the wild cultivator in the mountains and rivers running for profit, or the dignitaries bringing their families to expand their horizons, taking the ferry
The Xianjia ferry boat is not unusual. The picturesque scenery such as the sea of clouds rolling in and the cranes soaring is just the same if you see it too much. Instead, it is not as refreshing as witnessing this kind of conflict with your own eyes. Everyone has their own opinions. Compared with
One of the parties involved was calm and the other was hiding his head. They chatted very enthusiastically and had mixed opinions. In the end, they roughly reached an agreement. They both felt that the young swordsman was acting too domineering. How could he hurt someone over such a trivial matter?
, it can be solved once the identity of the sword cultivator is made clear. If you have to kick the man until he falls to the ground, what else is it if you don't use your power to bully others?
There was only a little girl who was taken by her parents to travel around the mountains and rivers. She said something ignorant, wasn't it the guy who was beaten who was at fault first?
The adults nearby who were watching and talking about the excitement, including her parents who were very well-matched among the Qingluan Kingdom clan, all pretended not to hear the child's innocent words. They continued to speculate about the origin of the young swordsman.
Li Tuanjing’s Fenglei Garden? Or the Zhengyang Mountain where the sword aura soared into the sky? Or they were sarcastic, saying that this legendary sword cultivator was amazing. He was young and had a really bad temper. Maybe one day he would meet a more powerful swordsman.
Unreasonable earthly immortals will suffer hardship sooner or later.
The little girl said timidly, if the big brother wearing a white robe and a sword on his back didn't have the ability to stand by him, wouldn't he have been bullied by that large group of people?
Adults still ignore a child's naive views. What can a big kid understand?
No one paid attention to her, and the little girl was a little angry. She ran to a place near the bow railing where there were few people, and stood on tiptoes to look out. Those clouds were like the biggest marshmallows in the world. She was so greedy that she stretched out her hand.
She went there, made a few grasping gestures, stuffed it into her mouth, patted her belly, and was satisfied, so she stopped sulking with the adults. In fact, she really wanted to play with that peer who looked like Xiao Heitan.
, but she was not very embarrassed at that time, and her parents had warned her not to be as casual as she was at home on this ship. After such a big thing happened, she was even more afraid to get along.
The little girl suddenly discovered that the man standing by the railing not far away was particularly good-looking. Compared with the big brother who was protecting the Heitan girl before, he was more in line with the Yushu Linfeng mentioned in the book.
The man was about thirty years old, but his whole person still gave people a vague impression of being young and energetic.
He turned to look at her, and the little girl quickly turned her head and pretended to enjoy the scenery.
The man smiled and imitated the little girl, reaching out to explore a floating white cloud shaped like a mountain near the ferry. Then the snow-white mountain swayed slightly, and then there was a shining white line under the sun, which swam to
In the man's hands, he kneaded it into a ball of thread. He smiled and stretched it out to the little girl, as if asking if he wanted to try it. The little girl shook her head vigorously, and the man threw it into his mouth.
The little girl was so impressed that she opened her mouth wide in admiration.
He is a good-looking god.
The man was lying on the railing, doing nothing.
This time he took leave to go out, not only to relax, but also to take a closer look at the young man who was most likely from the same family as Fa Chu.
He is none other than Wei Liang, the Commander-in-Chief of Qingluan Kingdom.
Not only was he the Earth Immortal monk who set up a bureau to encircle scalpers and trap and kill wild cultivators, he was also the gatekeeper of the capital for this debate on Buddhism and Taoism in Qingluan Kingdom.
The debate between Buddhism and Taoism has not really come to an end, so Wei Liang, the governor who is older than Zuo of Qingluan Kingdom, the right-hand man of the founding emperor of Qingluan Kingdom, and the number one adviser in the past, resigned from the current emperor this time.
No matter how reluctant Li was, after all, there was no Wei Liang in the capital, and the situation in Qingluan Kingdom was extremely complicated now, with tigers and wolves on both sides of the bed, but the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty could only bite the bullet and agree.
After the founding of the Qingluan Kingdom, Emperor Taizu built attics and hung portraits for the twenty-four founding heroes. "Wei Qian" was not ranked highly, but the grandchildren of the other twenty-three civil servants and generals were all dead, and Wei Qian was not.
He just changed his name to Wei Liang.
This Xianjia ferry named "Qingyi" is similar in appearance to the warships of the secular dynasties on those huge lakes and rivers. It is not fast and will take detours in order to allow half of the ferry passengers to go to those famous Xianjia mountains.
For fun, go to a fishing platform high above the sea of clouds and use fishing rods specially made from rare wood to catch birds and flying fish worth thousands of dollars; go to the top of a mountain with many inns to enjoy the magnificent scene of sunrise and sunset
; Go to a certain fairy sect and charge a lot of money to buy seeds, and then hand them over to the farmer monks to cultivate and plant pots of exotic flowers and herbs. After getting them back, you can put them in your own courtyard for appreciation, or for official bribes. There are also some
On the top of the mountain, some mountain birds and beasts are deliberately raised. There will be monks responsible for taking rich people who like hunting to accompany them all the way up the mountain and into the water, and "risk" to capture them.
During the years when Qingluan was full of flowers, Wei Liang was actually always alone.
In the Governor's Mansion, every time a mediator marries a wife, she is just a cover-up, so she has no heirs.
In a daze, it has been so many years.
Wei Liang knelt down and said with a smile: "Little girl, what is your name?"
The little girl hesitated and said, "My name is Yuan Yanxu."
Wei Liang nodded and said: "Words must have something to say. Preface, it seems that there is an elder in your family who was a admirer of the Tongcheng School's theory of justice. This line of knowledge has been silent for many years, so I guess it is not your father.
He was named after your grandfather, right?"
The little girl's eyes widened and she admired this man even more. Can you guess this?
Wei Liang asked with a smile: "Let's talk?"
The little girl ran a few steps and squatted next to him, "Sir, please tell me, I'm listening."
In the distance, the little girl's mother looked worried and was about to bring her daughter back to her.
The woman's husband, an elegant middle-aged scholar, also had the same plan. There was no simple person on the Xian family ferry.
However, the old guest from the family who was accompanying them shook his head at the middle-aged Confucian scholar and said softly: "Maybe it is an immortal opportunity. We'd better wait and see what happens."
The couple felt a little relieved and at the same time looked forward to it.
Wei Liang simply sat cross-legged, with his hands on his knees, and the Xianjia ferry sailed above a sea of clouds. Outside the railing, it looked like a long snow-white river, becoming a veritable ferry.
Wei Liang first asked the little girl Yuan Yanxu what he thought about the previous incident, and the little girl told him what he thought.
Seeing this immortal gentleman nodding, Yuan Yanxu felt a little happy, finally having someone who recognized his opinion.
Wei Liang said slowly: "You children who are not familiar with the world are all... How to put it, like the most beautiful but the most fragile porcelain. In the future, will you ascend to the palace of elegance, or will you be reduced to a well?
A broken pot depends on whether it has been taught well. If it is taught well, the shape will be straight; if it is not taught well, it will grow crookedly."
"Teaching by words and deeds, and the latter is more important, teaching by words is empty, teaching by example is real, because children may not understand the truths of adults, but they are the most curious about the world. Children must be able to listen and pretend to be truthful, which is very difficult.
Difficult, children see more in their eyes, and it is easier to remember the general appearance of this world. It is relatively simple, black and white, and immature but especially valuable. If it goes on so imperceptibly, they will not even realize it, bit by bit, year by month, in their mind.
The world in it is set, and it’s hard to change.”
"So many seemingly inexplicable actions that go against other people's impressions when they grow up have actually been traced for a long time. At a critical moment of shaping one's body, the words and deeds of parents are very important. If they do something wrong,
If something is done but there is no point in reprimanding it, or if something is wrong, they simply think that their child is too young and choose to turn a blind eye. In the end, they are harming others, themselves and their children. Therefore, rewards and punishments must be clearly defined, and parents must learn to set a good standard for their children.
Rules, benevolence and righteousness are the foundation of reason. Punishment is the end of reason."
Wei Liang spoke at a steady pace, neither urgent nor slow.
The little girl listened carefully and blinked occasionally.
Wei Liang continued: "So when they are young, parents teach their children benevolence and righteousness by their own example. When they are a little older, the school master teaches his disciples the benevolence and righteousness in books. The two complement each other, the former teaches from the real place, and the latter teaches from the high place. One thing is missing.
No, not even trying to undermine each other."
The little girl remained silent, not knowing whether she understood or not.
But when others are talking, the little girl still understands if she listens carefully and doesn't interrupt.
Wei Liang turned around and asked with a smile: "Do you know someone who is more willing to listen to reason?"
The little girl shook her head.
Wei Liang then asked and answered himself, "In the beginning, children listen to their parents. Then students listen to their teachers. When they grow up, the weak listen to the strong, the poor listen to the rich, and the ministers listen to the king. It's like the foot of the mountain listens to the mountain, and the mountain listens to the top of the mountain. So
Here comes the question, what should we do if the strong person says something wrong, but the weak person firmly believes in all the words and principles of the strong person? Morality, benevolence and righteousness are already very difficult to be effective. We need a law. There must be something in the world that is better than the one on the mountain.
All the magic techniques of the immortal family are even more awe-inspiring, making the so-called strong people restrain their hands, making these people like children who make mistakes, fearing the reprimands of their parents, like the feather duster and ruler of the teacher, who will immediately knock them on the palm of their hand whenever they make a mistake.
Of course she didn't understand, her little head was filled with confusion, "Yeah!"
Wei Liang laughed and said: "You actually listened to it, you just don't understand it for the time being, but you put it all in your heart, which is better than many adults. They often just learn some smart ways to deal with people after suffering losses."
.Little girl, although your cultivation qualifications are average, your family is now well off and you have enough food and clothing. It is unlikely that your character will change drastically. If you marry a good man in the future, your life will not be any worse."
The meta preface is a bit shy.
When it comes to getting married, I have played it with my peers when playing house. Every time, I would find a piece of red satin and cover the "bride's" head. If the "husband" is the little nerd from the Liu Mansion next door,
She would smile more. If it were the chubby little guy from Ma Mansion, she wouldn't be willing to laugh.
Wei Liang held out a finger and said, "Because you are so smart and sensible, remember one thing. When you grow up, if you encounter a huge difficulty that you think your family cannot handle, remember to go to the south of the capital.
I want to find a man named Wei Liang in the Governor's Mansion. Well, if the matter is urgent, you can just send a letter."
Yuan Yanxu timidly said: "Sir, that will happen many years later, should we forget it?"
Wei Liang shook his head and smiled: "Don't think so. Time is like water. In the blink of an eye, you have grown up. In the blink of an eye again..."
He might have died of old age.
It's just that Wei Liang didn't say such inappropriate words.
Wei Liang smiled and said: "If a good person is bullied by others, why don't you be a good person? Evil people can only be punished by evil people, so why should you become a bad person? A gentleman can bully others, so do you think it is right to bully a gentleman? This is wrong."
"It's just that it's too complicated to talk about the good and evil of people. Even if you determine right and wrong, how to deal with it is still a big trouble. Just like the storm on the ferry today, the young man with the sword on his back, if he can stand up to that group of people,
Will people listen to you if you tell the truth out of temper? Do you agree with your words if you listen? So what is the meaning of saying it or not? Because what that group of people are willing to listen is not the real truth, but the current situation. The two sides parted ways, and the situation
Once you're gone, it's easy to change your country, but hard to change your temperament, so everything remains the same. Maybe if you sit down and explain the truth, you'll end up smelling bad... Forget it, let's not talk about this, it's more comfortable for us to look at the sea of clouds."
These are actually more of Wei Liang's words to himself, and he doesn't expect the little girl to understand them.
In fact, it is useless to listen to my parents who are in Yuanyan Preface. It’s not that they don’t understand, but they feel that the world is like this, and talking about these things is not as practical as talking about mysteries thousands of miles away from the earth.
Wei Liang was already an Earth Immortal more than two hundred years ago. However, in order to promote his own knowledge, he planned to use the changes in the local customs of a country as an opportunity for himself to attain enlightenment and contemplation. So at that time, he changed his name to "Wei Qian"
", came to the southeast of Aquarius Continent, helped the founder of Qingluan Kingdom, the founder of the Tang family, and thereafter assisted generations of Tang emperors to legislate. Before this debate on Buddhism and Taoism, Wei Liang had never regarded him as an Earth Immortal monk.
Identity, targeting temple officials and practitioners.
As a result, not to mention the hard work and hard work, the progress was slow, and even during the two emperors, there was a long way to go.
This made Wei Liang very disappointed.
Wei Liang finally left with a smile, but only reminded the little girl to keep the matter of the letter and the Governor's Mansion a secret.
After Wei Liang's figure disappeared, Yuan Yanxu's parents and family guests came to the little girl and began to inquire about the details of the conversation.
The little girl didn't dare to hide it, but at first she wanted to keep it a secret and promised the gentleman not to tell anything about the Governor's Mansion and the letter.
It was just that he accidentally let it slip, and the old gentleman who was a guest of the family caught some clues. He looked kind but hid a secret in the interrogation. Yuan Yanxu was entangled for a long time, but he couldn't resist the earnest questioning of his parents, so he had to tell the truth.
The old guest was so happy that he whispered to the middle-aged Confucian scholar, saying that the man must be the monk who worshiped the great governor! Maybe he was also the famous person next to the great governor Wei!
The Yuan family is blessed!
The old guest of the Yuan family also told the Confucian scholar that the temperaments of these mountain gods are unpredictable and cannot be guessed by common sense, so they must not add any unnecessary extravagance, such as visiting people to express their gratitude. They must not do anything like that. The Yuan family should just pretend they don't know anything.
The couple was extremely excited.
Only the little girl was full of guilt for the fairy gentleman and squatted by the railing, feeling a little lost.
Wei Liang, who had already walked away, sighed.
This kind of trivial matter cannot be said to disappoint Wei Liang, let alone regret it, but there is no surprise. From now on, the Yuan family, which will only be regarded as a second-rate family in the capital of Qingluan Kingdom, will encounter trouble, even if the letter cannot be sent.
In the Governor's Mansion, Wei Liang will still help him once.
However, the little girl named Yuan Yanxu has lost an opportunity to embark on the path of spiritual practice.
But Wei Liang also knew that for Yuan Yanxu, this was not necessarily a bad thing.
It is extremely difficult to find stability in this world.
Once you go up the mountain to practice Taoism and become a Qi practitioner, once you start wrestling with God, regardless of the good and evil of human nature, as long as you are weak-minded, you will rarely end up well.
Chen Pingan took Pei Qian's hand and returned to the ferry room.
Pei Qian said for the first time that he would copy 500 more words today.
Chen Ping'an didn't stop me, he just reminded me that what I wrote today cannot be counted as tomorrow's.
Pei Qian puffed up his chest and said of course.
While copying books, she kept a small yellow-skinned gourd at hand.
Chen Ping'an sat across from the table and continued to look through a Legalist book that he bought after being reminded by Cui Dongshan. It was not a rare book, but it was one of the fundamental "serious scriptures" that supported the three religions and hundreds of schools of thought. It was about reading.
Lu Tai gave Chen Ping'an some advice, and Chen Ping'an kept it in mind. For example, the method of reading is to read thickly first and then thin, and "follow the clues to find relatives", as well as the tips for choosing books. Regardless of the diverse knowledge of various schools of thought,
There are a lot of books, and there is no limit to the sea of books. In fact, it is the three most widely circulated books on Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. The books that really need to be worthy of the four words "opening the book are beneficial" add up to no more than fifty books, and all seventy books in the world are
Ordinary people of all ages can read it carefully and repeatedly.
Therefore, the three Legalist classics selected by Chen Ping'an were just to ensure that the engravings were correct.
What made Pei Qian most gratified about today's incident was still what Chen Pingan and Pei Qian said before, "from the heart."
If you do something wrong, apologize sincerely first.
Then there is Pei Qian today, which is completely different from the Pei Qian he first met in Ouhua Blessed Land. For example, from the turmoil to the turmoil, Pei Qian's only thought was to copy books.
Instead of turning around and cursing that group of people for a good death or something like that.
Chen Pingan asked: "Pei Qian, you held down that guy's head and almost threw you out. Aren't you angry?"
"I'm so angry. This wasn't the case on the way here. I cursed them to death in my stomach. The eight bad guys each died in a different way. For example, the guy who was taught a lesson by his master accidentally sprained his ankle when he went out.
After getting off the ferry, I was smashed to pieces. According to the facial description given to me by the old cook, that stinky bitch was called the Silkworm Thick and Drummer. Suddenly she got into an argument with someone, and then she was slapped on the left and slapped on the right.
In the end, he was beaten until his mouth was full of teeth, haha, and the one with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks had a bad stomach. There was no doctor on the ferry to treat him, so he was rolling on the ground and howling..."
Pei Qian was busy concentrating on copying books, and accidentally said what was in his heart. He suddenly woke up and said with a grimace, "Master, knock chestnuts, or pull ears, it depends."
Chen Pingan was not very angry and asked with a smile: "What if..."
Pei Qian seemed to know what Chen Pingan was going to ask, and straightened his back and said: "Master, don't worry, I just want to think about it to make myself happy. Even if I master the peerless swordsmanship and invincible boxing one day, I will encounter
These guys won't really do anything to them! At most, just like Master, kick them."
Chen Pingan asked curiously: "Why?"
Pei Qian had a righteous look on his face, "I am your disciple, master, and the greatest disciple of the mountain! I am just as familiar with them, so wouldn't I embarrass the master? Besides, what a big deal, I was beaten and kicked by others when I was a child.
There have been so many times, now I am a rich man, and I am still half a Jianghu person, so I am very generous!"
Zhu Lian just pushed the door open with Shi Rou and extended his thumb, "Nvxia Pei's flattery skills are getting better and better."
Pei Qian continued to immerse herself in copying books. She was in a very good mood today, unlike the old cook.
Chen Ping'an said to Zhu Lian: "That group of people will definitely come to apologize later, please help me stop them and tell them to get out."
Pei Qian suddenly asked: "Master, why don't you see me and talk to them?"
Zhu Lian smiled and said, "You know nothing."
For the first time, Pei Qian did not talk back and grinned.
Last time on the way out of the Lion Garden, she grabbed a piece of shit for Zhu Lian and Shi Rou to guess, so old cook, you really know shit.
Zhu Lian stood next to Pei Qian and watched her copy the book. She probably learned her writing style from Chen Pingan, and now her writing is barely correct.
While looking at her meticulous writing, Zhu Lian said: "Young master, if you talk to this kind of people carefully, they will definitely be convinced in person, and they will say some nonsense that they will never do again in the future. If you turn around, they will slap their noses in their faces, maybe they will do it."
You will be so proud that you tell everyone you meet the young master that you are not acquainted with the young master, get off the boat, and continue to mess around with them. Now you have a sword cultivator friend who can be proven by everyone on the ferry. How can you not be afraid of others? Do you think
Is it a small thing?"
Pei Qian raised his head and asked doubtfully: "Why are we friends? Aren't we enemies with them?"
Zhu Lian sat aside and said calmly: "We know, Jianghu doesn't know."
Pei Qian stopped writing and was so angry that she slapped the table with her other hand, "Why are Jianghu acting like this!"
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Copy the book carefully and try to finish it in one go. It's best not to dawdle in the middle."
Pei Qian said oh and continued to copy the book.
really.
There was a sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door. Most of them were pure martial artists of the third and fourth realms, except for one of the fifth realm.
Start knocking on the door.
After Zhu Lian opened the door, he kicked him out and said, "Don't come here to disturb my young master's purity. If you come here again and become an eyesore, I'll beat them to death."
The group of people trembled, bowed their heads, and left in a swarm of accusations.
In this corridor, almost half of the nearby rooms are open, and they are all curious whether the blood splattered three feet after a disagreement, or the so-called good talk in the book.
As a result, everyone found this situation a bit boring.
However, a few wild cultivators from the mountains felt better.
If those reckless men really got a blessing in disguise and got attached to such a bottomless young swordsman, they would be jealous to death.
He looked at Chen Ping An, who was quietly watching Pei Qian copy the book, checking every stroke to make sure there were any mistakes.
Shi Rou suddenly had the feeling that hundreds of years of his life as a ghost had all lived on in the dog's body.
Isn't he still twenty years old?
You shouldn't be able to see so clearly into the subtleties of people's hearts.
Chen Ping'an suddenly turned his head and asked with a smile: "Why have you been looking at me for a long time?"
Shi Rou was a little shy and shook her head.
Seeing Chen Ping'an's expression being strange, Shi Rou was afraid that he had gone astray and mistakenly thought that she had some evil thoughts. Shi Rou became more and more uncomfortable, stood up suddenly, twisted her waist, and left.
Chen Pingan was confused.
He just felt that having a "Du Mao" stare at him like this gave him goosebumps.
Zhu Lian gloated and said, "The young master is really a dragon and a phoenix among men. If any woman in the world meets a man like the young master, won't it mean that she will miss her life?"
Chen Pingan sighed, "Zhu Lian, sometimes your flattery is really not as good as Pei Qian's ear."
Zhu Lian chuckled and said: "After all, Pei Qian is gifted with such things as flattery, and I just work hard the next day."
Pei Qian copied the book without raising his head, but said angrily: "Old cook, just wait. When I finish copying the book, there are still 125 words left. Then you will be miserable."
Zhu Lian smiled and said, "What, are you comparing me to eating shit, or are you comparing me to swearing?"
Chen Ping'an couldn't stand listening anymore, so he simply took out the priceless Day and Night Wandering God True Amulet and the jade pendant inscribed with the Dragon Palace.
Because Li Baozhen "opened the door" and Chen Ping'an didn't know how to close the door, they both kept losing spiritual energy, but compared to the abundant spiritual energy of the talisman and jade pendant, it was almost negligible.
For example, in the reed lake outside the Lion Garden, someone used a hoe to dig out a small ditch to release water.
This brings out the fatal flaw of purely martial arts drawings.
A burning fire cooks oil, just like the rotation of the four seasons, never waiting for the season.
A thin stream of water flows long, like a fairy cave, evergreen all year round.
Zhu Lian clicked his tongue and said in wonder: "The jade pendant is not famous, but this precious talisman belonging to the second son of the Li family should be regarded as...a magic weapon among the magic weapons of the Immortal family?"
Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "The talisman lineage is a major lineage of Taoism, and the ever-changing changes are all secrets of heaven. Once used proficiently, it is enough to allow monks to run rampant in all directions. Even against sword cultivators who eat the most money and have the greatest killing power, they will still have their way.
Characters and sword-locking talismans can be used against them. Compared with other Qi practitioners who are afraid of swordsmanship like a tiger, it is already very good. What's more, it can kill ghosts and gods and kill them, so most monks will carry a few talismans with them in case of death.
If you need it from time to time, as for the quantity and quality, of course it depends on each person's pocket."
He noticed that Zhu Lian was looking at him.
During the battle in the Lion Garden, Chen Pingan not only used gold paint to draw talismans, but he also took out a large number of high-grade and rare talismans.
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "The story here is that I will tell you and Pei the money when we get to Luopo Mountain in Longquan County. In short, this is almost the reason why I didn't kill Li Baozhen."
Zhu Lian stopped asking any more questions and rubbed his hands, "Master, give me a chance to punch?"
Chen Pingan nodded and stood up, "This time you strike harder, don't worry about whether I can withstand it. You Zhu Lian don't know how I punched people back then. Only after you have seen it do you know that Zheng Dafeng was
Giving you punches at the old Longcheng drug store is really...well, if you go by what Zhu Lian said, it's a man who puts on a woman's eyebrows with a gentle technique."
Zhu Lian smiled and said: "This is a good thing. At that time, I felt that it was not refreshing enough. But with Sui on your side, I was embarrassed to say anything."
Pei Qian has finished copying the book.
Chen Pingan said: "Go back to your room, otherwise you will definitely make a fuss and scream."
Pei Qian assured loudly: "No!"
Chen Pingan first took out a talisman to remove dirt and posted it in the room.
As a result, after burning the incense, Pei Qian was sweating profusely and frightened just by watching the two people compete. Finally, he simply ran to the corner, rummaged through Chen Ping'an's bamboo box, and took out his treasure box.
If she had to practice boxing and martial arts like this in order to become the peerless master she thought she was, Pei Qian would definitely pretend that the world doesn't exist. There is no such thing as a world in the world. He would just read the story in a book.
Chen Ping'an wore a golden robe, which saved him a lot of trouble.
He sat back at the table with Zhu Lian, took out a pot of rime wine bought from the capital of Qingluan Kingdom, and poured a glass for Zhu Lian.
Zhu Lian drank it all in one gulp. He didn't need Chen Ping'an to pour the wine, so he took the jug and filled it up for himself.
Pei Qian reminded: "Old cook, drink less. Too much wine will harm your health. Besides, a pot of rime wine costs three taels of silver."
Zhu Lian began to drink slowly and asked in a low voice: "When will the young master break through the bottleneck and reach the sixth realm?"
Chen Ping'an had already made up his mind and said, "Just wait a little longer. If you have an opportunity, you can fight for it."
Chen Ping'an did not elaborate on what opportunity was. After all, the word "strongest" is more elusive than the military destiny of a country that can be manifested into weather.
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I don't dare to try my luck in the shattered secret realms of Cave Heaven and Paradise, seize opportunities, seize magic weapons, and hope to find various immortal inheritances and relics."
But relying on the foundation of martial arts accumulated with each punch, Chen Pingan felt that there was no harm in giving it a try.
But Chen Pingan also knew that as long as Cao Ci stayed in the Fifth Realm, there would be no hope for anyone, let alone Chen Pingan.
The eldest swordsman has personally said that Cao Ci's martial arts training has surpassed many martial artists of his generation, and he will be the strongest in the world in every realm.
At that time, Ning Yao was not convinced, saying that even if Master Cao Ci was the best martial artist in the four worlds, martial arts could be manifested concretely, but the world is big and unforeseen events happen every day, how could Cao Ci have to be in the realm?
Is he the strongest? Is it possible that his ancestors, Cao Ci, have been running shops for generations, and his family is the dominant one, monopolizing the martial arts in the world?
Chen Qingdu said something at that time that Chen Pingan remembered deeply.
"Cao Ci is just that strong. From his basic bones, talent, temperament, and martial arts, it's all the same. There's no reason to explain."
At that time, Chen Ping'an had just lost three games in a row to Cao Ci. He didn't think it was anything, but Ning Yao was already very angry.
Chen Pingan felt very happy to see Ning Yao like that, but Ning Yao became even more angry when he saw him like this.
At this moment, Zhu Lian subconsciously blurted out: "The young master is a man of great fortune, how can he possibly return empty-handed after entering the treasure mountain? Now I am in the golden body realm, and I have some understanding of the secret fairyland after the cave heaven and blessed land was broken.
, knowing that the monks of the upper five realms cannot enter, and once they enter the secret realm, it will be unstable, easy to collapse, and easily trapped by those disorderly long rivers of time, which will seriously weaken the Taoism. Without the monks of the upper five realms to secretly covet it, there are old slaves.
Just to help you, so now the young master can try his luck. If he encounters a place like this next time, the young master will not let him take the old slave with him. After all, we are pure martial arts. It doesn’t matter, we are not subject to such restrictions. "
Chen Pingan thought for a moment and nodded: "That makes sense. I'm used to avoiding these things. Now it seems that I have to change my past mentality."
When Pei Qian heard "Hongfu reaches the sky", he immediately frowned, but when he heard Zhu Lian's words later, his brows relaxed.
Zhu Lian was slightly thoughtful.
After that, the time on this fairy ferry passed by slowly.
There are many landscape-shaped scenic spots with signs of Xianjiadongfu on the mountain. It is impossible to build a Xianjia ferry that requires a steady stream of fairy money, so this ferry cannot "land", but some things that can float in the wind are prepared early.
Xianjia Zhouzi takes the guests arriving at their destinations on the ferry to the small ferries on the hills. When passing by the famous Diaoyutai in the northern border of Qingluan Kingdom, there are especially many people getting off the boat. Chen Pingan and Pei Qian Zhulian came to the bow of the boat.
, I saw that between the two towering mountains, there was a huge sea of clouds floating by, flowing like a stream. The two Diaoyutais facing each other were built on the top of the mountains beside the sea of clouds. From time to time, I could see colorful birds fluttering.
The wings broke through the sea of clouds, and then fell into the sea of clouds after drawing an arc.
Pei Qian was so fascinated by what he saw that he only regretted that he could not ride the wind. Otherwise, he would have swung over, held a hiking stick, and hit the birds and flying fish with a stick. After catching them, he would have run back to the ferry. He should be able to sell them for a lot of money.
, maybe if she makes a few more trips, she can buy a multi-treasure box or even a multi-treasure shelf.
Zhu Lian is an eighth-level martial artist, but he has always followed Chen Ping'an on foot and has never experienced traveling far away from the wind.
Chen Pingan asked curiously: "Zhu Lian, don't you have any ideas? Don't you feel that you are treating your own state badly?"
Zhu Lian shook his head and said with a smile: "Young Master, back home, I have long been tired of seeing other people's surprised eyes. I really can't afford to be so stupid and green-hearted."
Shi Rou was silently admiring the scenery.
She has become accustomed to Zhu Lian's ideas that are completely different from ordinary people's.
When Chen Pingan and his party were enjoying the scenery.
Wei Liang was sitting at a desk in a room, writing something. There was an antique rosewood box in his hand, which was filled with paper knives "A Gentleman's Arms".
He took out a bamboo carving knife and used it as a paperweight.
Although Wei Liang left the capital with the excuse of traveling to the mountains and rivers to relax, he was actually doing the same thing all the way.
The relationship with Qingluan Country is neither big nor small.
He was helping someone compile the ranking of the Immortal Master in the Aquarius Continent Genealogy and needed to make an outline.
Wei Liang formulated a first draft framework of the nine-grade system.
For the first level, only the Immortal Realm among the five realms on Aquarius Continent can be ranked in this category.
The second level is the Jade Pu Realm among the upper five realms. Or it is for the Song family's iron cavalry to go south and establish the cause of destroying the country.
The third level is the Nascent Soul Realm. His contribution may be equivalent to opening up a territory and expanding a state.
The fourth level, the golden elixir realm.
Gradually go down until the ninth level at the end.
The specific division is quite complicated. It is not absolutely linked to the realm of Qi practitioners. It is necessary to refer to the Dali court, especially the military, to record the monks' contributions during the horse's journey south.
Among them, Ruan Qiong of the Longquan Sword Sect is not only the first person in the second rank, but also the Immortal Genealogy that will be regarded as a credit book by the Dali Song family in the future, currently ranked first.
In addition, there are two ancestral sects of the military family, Zhenwu Mountain and Fengxue Temple, as well as two major sword cultivating sects, Fengleiyuan and Zhengyang Mountain.
Further down, there are Dali Changchun Palace, Yunxia Mountain, Qingfeng City and the Xu family.
They all need one or two spots, and they are certain to be on this list, and their rank will definitely not be low.
As for the monks who have the Peace and Nothingness Card issued by the Ministry of Punishment of the Great Li, they will definitely be included.
After that, all the immortal masters who took the lead in surrendering to the Great Li, regardless of their origins, whether they were genealogical masters or wild cultivators, could be among them.
Wei Liang has been perfecting the details recently, which requires that person to provide him with a lot of intelligence, even insider information about a country, Guo Zuo, and the life and death of an emperor.
Wei Liang placed the brush in his hand on Bijia Mountain, stood up, and walked slowly around the room.
The reason why you are willing to do this.
It's not that Wei Liang was forced to take refuge with the embroidered tiger due to the general situation. In fact, with Wei Liang's temper, if Cui Zhang couldn't convince him, Wei Liang could have given up the business of Qingluan Kingdom for more than 200 years and started a new venture in another continent.
, such as the even more lawless Julu Continent, such as the relatively stable Tongye Continent, with the foundation of the Qingluan Kingdom, it will only take another one or two hundred years.
But this time Cui Yi came to Qingluan Kingdom in person, and the first person he found was Wei Liang. Cui Yi had a frank conversation with him, and Wei Liang learned about the Great Li Imperial Master and the people of the Great Li Dynasty.
After establishing the general direction of national policy, Wei Liang decided to cooperate.
Cooperate, not surrender.
Wei Liang did not compromise or bargain, and Cui Chen also had no doubts about this.
It is undeniable that what Cui Chan wants is more profound than Wei Liang, so Wei Liang is looking forward to the picture Cui Chan mentioned appearing in front of him one day.
"Engrave the inscription on the seal of the Dali Kingdom and erect the monument on the top of the mountains of Aquarius Continent!"
Wei Liang came to the window, his eyes were burning, and his heart was filled with pride.
It is even better than the billowing sea of clouds flowing between the two big mountains at your feet.
A true man should do this so that he can live up to his journey in this life and live up to what he has learned!
Chen Ping'an had already taken three cross-continental ferries. He knew that the ferry "Qingyi" was inherently slow, so he never thought of taking a lot of detours and deliberately sailed along the northeastern and northern borders of Qingluan Country, then dropped off several groups of passengers.
It was easy to leave the territory of Qingluan Kingdom. I thought it would be faster, and stopped in a vassal state in the north of Yunxiao Kingdom. Finally, at noon today, I stopped in the territory of Zhongyue, a small country, saying that it would be tomorrow.
Set sail only at dusk, guests can go to the Zhongyue Mountain to enjoy the scenery, especially the stone gambling that happens four times a year. If you have the opportunity, you must gamble a little for fun. If you hit the big luck, it will be a good thing. Chengtian Kingdom is
The lamp stone in Zuozhong Mountain is known as "Little Yunxia Mountain". Once you bet correctly, you can get the high-quality lamp stone at a low price with just a few grains of snow. As long as it is the size of a fist, you can get rich overnight.
It's a great thing. Ten years ago, a wild cultivator from Shanze used his only twenty-six snowflakes to buy a dungeon-sized lighting stone that no one liked. As a result, he got thirty small summer bullets.
The light of money is like stone marrow, and its whole body is as red as a flame.
Of course, if ferry passengers do not want to disembark, they can stay on the ferry "Tsing Yi" to rest.
After hearing the explanation of the ferry maid, Chen Pingan was speechless for a moment. After the maid left, Chen Pingan walked to the window and looked at the so-called "One Country Mountain" not far away. He couldn't laugh or cry.
It's Zhongyue, not to mention comparable to the Piyun Mountain in his hometown. Even the Luoluo Mountain that belongs to Chen Ping'an is much more majestic than this mountain.
Chen Ping'an had no choice but to take the three of them to get off the boat and wait for the boats to come and go, taking them to the "big mountain" in the Chengtian Kingdom.
Chen Ping'an knew with all his ass that the god of Zhongyue and the owner of the "Tsing Yi" ferry were mutually beneficial business partners.
While Chen Ping'an and the others were waiting for the boat to pick them up, the surrounding passengers subconsciously moved out of the way, but they did not openly point fingers, and could not avoid whispering.
The former Jianghu people who suffered losses in the hands of the "young swordsman" had already disembarked in despair after they came to apologize to no avail, and did not dare to stay for a long time.
Everyone has different mentality.
Regardless of their age, most genealogy masters are jealous of Chen Ping'an, who has two natal flying swords. They just hide it very well.
Those who practice wild cultivation in the mountains and swamps are extremely afraid.
Most of the worldly wealthy people, after hearing the exaggerated comments from people on the ferry, felt that the sword cultivator was indeed as arrogant and domineering as the legend said.
Only the ferry side has been very respectful to Chen Ping'an and his party recently. They specially selected a pretty woman to knock on the door from time to time and bring a plate of fruits and vegetables from the fairy family.
There is also a small attic on the ferry that is euphemistically called "Xianqi Zhai", which is specially designed for certain distinguished guests who took the Tsing Yi ferry to leave a calligraphy treasure.
Chen Pingan declined and just asked Zhu Lian to deal with it and write a word.
We took a skiing boat with seals and talismans carved on the bottom and golden light flowing, and arrived at the foot of the Zhongyue Mountain.
There are not many real pilgrims. At present, most of them are the rich and powerful children of Chengtian Kingdom and wealthy people who come here to gamble on stones.
It's just that these people who were accustomed to having their nostrils turned upward in the secular dynasty would walk and speak in a much lower voice than usual when they met the passengers coming off the boat.
On the ferry, there were three incense sellers belonging to different temples in Zhongyue. They almost got into a fight in order to compete for customers. The incense seller from Zhongyue Temple was the most grumpy, and the other incense sellers from a half-waist Taoist temple and a temple at the foot of the mountain
, although they seemed to be avoiding their sharp edges, their words were also soft and daggers flying around. Anyway, the three of them showed their talents and gained something. This time they took a small boat to board the boat to collect passengers, and they all brought some passengers who were willing to burn incense to get off the boat.
.
The ferry steward made a special trip to lead the incense deliverer from the Zhongyue Mountain Temple to Chen Pingan and his party, and introduced him.
After the man heard that Chen Ping'an had no intention of inviting incense for the time being, he still smiled at him and said a lot of polite words, such as Mr. Chen's arrival, which was already very kind.
When Chen Pingan's feet landed on the ground, the incense seller who was still on the ferry stood by the railing and spat outside.
Zhu Lian smiled and said: "What do you say, young master? Why don't I give this brave man a reward this time when he rides the wind?"
Chen Ping'an waved his hand, "Maybe this is the only time in our life that we will meet each other, without any grudges or grudges. Why do we care about this?"
Pei Qian asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Zhu Lian smiled and said: "Someone is pooping and peeing on top of your head. Look up quickly."
Pei Qian rolled his eyes.
There is a long street at the foot of the mountain dedicated to stone gambling, with dozens of shops of various sizes.
Both the inside and outside of the shop are piled with gray lamplight stones. The smallest ones are no more than the size of a palm, while the largest ones are as tall as a person and weigh more than ten thousand kilograms. Such huge stones are often the treasures of each shop. This kind of stone is a specialty of Zhongyue in Chengtian Kingdom.
The reason why it is named Lampstone is that it is said to be the highest quality Lampstone. It is as bright red as blood, extremely thick and has no impurities. It also flickers like a lamp. Holding one in hand can naturally deter evil spirits.
What's surprising is that even the Earth Immortal monks couldn't see through the inner color before the stone was opened.
Chen Ping'an was not interested in this, so he gave Pei Qian and the three of them ten snow coins each, and asked them to choose and open the stone by themselves.
He climbed the mountain alone and wanted to visit the Zhongyue Temple at the top of the mountain, so he made an appointment to meet at an inn at the foot of the mountain at dusk.
Pei Qian was a little nervous and asked if he could not buy the stone.
Chen Pingan smiled and pinched her dark cheeks, "Anyway, the ten pieces of snow are yours to spend. You can spend them however you like."
Pei Qian said oh.
When Chen Ping'an was far away, he started walking up the mountain.
Pei Qian immediately jumped up for joy, opened his teeth and claws, and performed a crazy swordsmanship.
Before Zhu Lian visited the two shops, he bought a piece of lamplight stone that was pleasing to the eye. He cut it open on the spot and lost all his money.
Pei Qian was so angry that he almost fought with him.
Zhu Lian pressed Pei Qian's forehead with one hand and allowed Pei Qian to move his hands and feet.
Shi Rou held ten snow coins in her hand. She looked at them carefully and listened attentively. She went from shop to shop. She often picked up a lamp and looked at it for a long time and then put it down again. She still didn't spend any snow coins.
Zhu Lian was full of praise: "You really know how to live a good life."
Pei Qian followed Shi Rou, staring at the lamplight stones of different sizes every time, wishing he could put his eyes on them.
Zhu Lian kicked him in the butt several times, and was laughed at by Zhu Lian. It doesn't matter if he loses his money, but it doesn't matter if he falls into a pile of rocks.
Zhu Lian soon regretted not following Chen Pingan on the mountain.
The two ladies, Shi Rou and Pei Qian, are really perseverant when they go shopping in the store. Not only do they have to go from house to house, but they also have to look at the lighting stones one by one. In addition, as long as a customer buys the lighting stones, the store will help them.
When opening a stone, the two of them must stop and look at it from beginning to end, with solemn expressions on their faces, as if they care more about the results than the high-rollers who spend huge sums of money to buy stones.
Zhu Lian walked without difficulty, but his heart was tired.
As a result, when Zhu Lian raised his head and glanced at the sky, he estimated that even Mr. Chen was about to go down the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
Shi Rou finally bought a palm-sized lamplight stone. According to the price listed in the store, it cost two snow coins.
The stone that was cut out turned out to be a bright red chalcedony the size of a thumb, and even the shopkeeper was sincerely shocked.
It's not that such a small lamplight stone is so valuable, but that such a large lampfire stone can produce so much stone marrow is indeed very rare.
Shi Rou smiled and had no intention of selling the bright red and thick piece of lamplight stone marrow.
After walking out of the shop, Pei Qian suddenly tugged on Shi Rou's sleeve and whispered: "Sister Shi Rou, can you lend me eight snowflakes to spend money?"
Shi Rou asked curiously: "If you don't buy stones, why do you want to borrow money?"
Pei Qian said seriously: "I'm buying stones!"
Shi Rou became even more confused, "After shopping here, there are so many shops, do you still remember which one it is?"
Pei Qian nodded vigorously.
Shi Rou smiled and handed the remaining eight snow coins to Pei Qian.
Pei Qian took a deep breath and began to run away.
Shi Rou and Zhu Lian looked at each other and followed quickly.
I don’t know what kind of medicine this Pei Qian is selling in his gourd.
In the end, the two of them found Pei Qian standing in a corner in a large shop with a mountain of all kinds of lamps and stones, "pulling out" a lamp with great difficulty. She might not be able to hold it with both hands, and the lamp was probably big.
Although the scenery inside the Denghuo Stone cannot be seen, the hundreds of years of mining history, the exquisite stone veins on the mountain roots of Zhongyue, and the rich experience of continuously extracting stone marrow, the people in charge of each shop will have a rough estimate.
There are inevitably some deviations, but they are generally not major. Small leaks occasionally occur, but big leaks are almost never found.
Therefore, although many lamplight stones are large, their prices are extremely low. Some stones are not large, but their prices are high.
The lantern stone at the feet of Pei Qian, who was squatting, was quite big, but it was only priced at twenty snow coins.
It has been sitting in the shop for more than a hundred years, and no one cares about it.
Pei Qian started bargaining with the shopkeeper Zhenger Bajing, saying that she only had fifteen pieces of snow money, which was all her savings that she had worked hard to save for many years.
The old shopkeeper thought this little girl's video was interesting. She didn't look like a child from a wealthy family at all. She was dark and beautiful, but she could own fifteen snow coins, which was fifteen thousand taels of silver. In the counties of Chengtian Kingdom
The city is considered rich.
The old shopkeeper actually felt that if he cut off five snowflakes and fifteen snowflakes, the price would not be a loss. Otherwise, for such a big light and flint stone, which the master of palm secretly estimated to be ten snowflakes, he might put another hundred.
In 2006, the shop was passed down to his grandson, but he still couldn't sell it.
However, the old man and Pei Qian were still asking for a high price, and the other was paying back the money on the spot. After about half a stick of incense, the old shopkeeper wanted to see what excuses the little girl could come up with in order to save five pieces of snow.
From the beginning.
In the end, the old shopkeeper laughed loudly and agreed, but when he saw the Heitan girl taking out a large handful of snow coins, she picked out three and put them back into her sleeve, and handed the remaining fifteen to him.
The corners of the old man's mouth twitched.
Little girl, you are being a bit unkind.
Pei Qian pretended to be stupid and crazy, grinning.
Shi Rou pretended not to know Pei Qian.
Zhu Lian gave her a thumbs up and said, "You are worthy of being the founding disciple."
The old shopkeeper was not angry, but felt that the strange little girl was a good person who knew how to do business, so he smiled and asked: "Would you like our shop to help you cut stones on the spot?"
Pei Qian nodded and said: "It needs to be opened, otherwise I wouldn't be able to carry it if it's so heavy. According to your rules, twenty light stones worth less than 20 pieces of snow can be opened for free. Also, if it is opened, it will be fine."
Shitou, whether you give the shop a bonus or not is up to the buyer. If I don't give you the bonus, Mr. Don't be angry."
The old shopkeeper was overjoyed and nodded in agreement.
Pei Qian suddenly asked the old shopkeeper to wait for a while, then turned to look at Zhu Lian.
Zhu Lian had a clear understanding and nodded: "Let's go. The young master is not here, but I am here."
Pei Qian tilted his head, smiled brightly, turned his head suddenly, waved to the old shopkeeper, "Open the stone!"
Then she gave the remaining three snow coins to Shi Rou and said softly: "I still owe you five more. I will pay you back later."
After a stick of incense.
The whole long street at the foot of the mountain was shocking.
Pei Qian, who was already carrying a parcel across his body, had another heavy bag.
The old shopkeeper of the shop behind him beat his chest and felt regretful.
A once-in-a-century light stone marrow!
Worth three Grain Rain coins!
Zhu Lian covered his sleeves with his hands, smiled slowly, and followed behind the swaggering Pei Qian.
Shi Rou just thought it was too incredible.
Chen Ping'an happened to go down the mountain and came to the end of the street.
Chen Ping'an was confused when he saw Pei Qian, who was attracting all the attention.
As soon as Pei Qian saw the familiar figure, he immediately ran over, panting.
Chen Pingan smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Did Zhu Lian or Shi Rou pick it up?"
Pei Qian just laughed.
Zhu Lian and Shi Rou came to the master and apprentice. Zhu Lian chuckled and said, "Master, this loser can use fifteen snow coins to get a piece of lamplight stone marrow worth at least three Guyu coins."
Chen Ping'an smiled and touched Pei Qian's head, "So awesome."
I'm happy, but I can't say I'm shocked or surprised.
Pei Qian narrowed his eyes into crescent moons, tilted his head, took off the package with some difficulty, and handed it to Chen Pingan, "Master, this is for you."
Chen Ping'an smiled and waved his hand and said: "Keep it for yourself. When you save money to buy a Duobao shelf, put it in the most conspicuous place. It's not good. Everyone who sees it will envy you, knowing that you are a little rich man."
Pei Qian shook his head vigorously and explained: "I remembered that the day I caught Shantiao and released him, it turned out to be your birthday, Master. It just so happened that this was my birthday to Master."
Chen Pingan was stunned and kept silent for a long time. He placed his palm on Pei Qian's little head and narrowed his eyes with a rare smile. "Is that so? Master will accept it?"
This was the first time Zhu Lian saw Chen Ping'an so happy.
When Chen Pingan reunited with Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia, he was naturally very happy, but it was not the happiness Chen Pingan felt now.
Pei Qian nodded and apologized: "But Master, I may not be able to give such a good gift on the fifth day of May next year?"
Chen Ping'an took the package and put it into the bamboo box behind his back, then held Pei Qian's hand and walked down the street together.
Pei Qian talked happily about the sight of everyone's eyes widening after the stone was opened.
Chen Pingan smiled and listened to Pei Qian's ramblings.
The sun sets in the west.
Yuhui elongated the figures, one large and one small.
Zhu Lian still held his sleeves with his hands, and Shi Rou's eyes were gentle.
