Chapter 888: Leaving Beijing and returning home

Spring Mountain Academy.

The old scholar has traveled across continents and returned to the Chinese Confucian Temple.

If I don't go back, I guess the Confucian Temple will have to come and block the door and curse in the streets.

Before leaving, the old scholar had a few words with the young Taoist priest.

Xianwei felt sad because this was Master Cao Xian's husband. It was nice that the old gentleman had kind facial features and kind eyes, but the problem was that he seemed to be almost as poor as himself.

Xiao Mo and Chen Ping'an walked side by side in front and said: "His Majesty, the emperor, could still pretend to be calm at the wine table, but when he left, after getting into the carriage, his heart strings became violently fluctuating. It seems that

The young master brought him a lot of pressure."

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I just chatted casually. Smart people like to think more about things, whether they are good or bad."

For example, I asked His Majesty the Emperor before whether scholars should discuss matters when discussing government affairs, and whether monks should consult their hearts when they act.

Now that there is no national teacher Cui Chun, the nobles of the Song family who were born in Weixiang, Huaxian County in the Dali Dynasty, led by the Zongren Mansion, are the most energetic people jumping around the edge of the temple. Your Majesty, do you want to care about it or not?

.

The Dali Dynasty once erected a country's laws and regulations on the Monument Mountain, with the capital and half of the mountains and rivers of the continent south of Dadu. In the past, the Dali vassals, in accordance with the agreement, relied on their respective military exploits to regain their kingdoms, so some countries began to demolish the territory.

Regarding the stone tablets on the mountains, the Dali court abided by the rules and never interfered in other people's housework. Instead, they asked officials from Honglu Temple in the capital or the Ministry of Rites to accompany them to give them some advice.

Another example is that there are many officials in the capital currently suggesting that the capital be moved to Da Li. What do you think, Your Majesty?

In fact, many issues are not complicated. For example, the Great Li Dynasty is not the suzerain state anymore, so why should it care about the removal of monuments from other countries?

It's just that Chen Pingan deliberately started with a "little thing", so that Emperor Song He would overthink everything later.

Furthermore, His Majesty the Emperor was too eager to use Chen Ping'an to serve as the Imperial Counselor of Dali once and for all.

Zhongtu Confucian Temple, Yizhou Mountain, the capital of Dali, the feudal lord Song Mu, Beiju Luzhou in the north, Tongyezhou in the south...

Again, I thought too simply.

Let’s return to the capital together.

Chen Ping'an sent three letters, and one Feijian sent a letter to his home in Luolu Mountain, informing them that he was about to return to his hometown.

I also sent it to Taihui Sword Sect Liu Jinglong, saying that the next sect is about to be established, and that I must attend the celebration. The specific time is to be determined, but when I cross the continent and go south, remember to stop here in the capital of Dali to give guidance to Han Zhoujin's formation.

Law.

This female formation master whose hometown is Qingtan Blessed Land, her life background and connections on the mountain are by no means simple.

Among the cultivators of the Earthly Branches, Chen Ping'an was actually the two who he was most optimistic about, namely her and Ge Ling, not even Yuan Huajing and Song Xu, the two sword cultivators who had great hope of reaching the upper five realms.

Rely on intuition.

Also, last time when they were drinking in Changpu River, Guan Yiran used the matter of the Inkstone Office to stir up conversation, so Chen Ping'an had to remind Dong Shuijing to be careful of some envious young men from aristocratic families in the capital.

Dong Shuijing's business methods can be called various, including Baoshantou, where he quietly monopolizes flowers, jade, wood and even spring water, and then spends money to ask various mountain newspapers to help spread the name, and then distributes it to

There are several or a dozen buyers, but Dong Shuijing himself often does not participate in the direct sale. Cao Gengxin, Yuan Zhengding, Fu Yu, Wu Yuan... all the rich and powerful children who have served as officials in Longzhou have a share.

Let’s not talk about the sects in the mountains, just the Sun family and the Fan family in Old Dragon City in the south. Anyway, as long as the friends introduced by Chen Ping’an, they all seem to have become Dong Shuijing’s friends.

In Dong Shuijing's words, I am just a serious business person who only makes money from rich people.

There are probably only a few private ferries and Xianjia ferries that are listed in other people's names but actually belong to Dong Shuijing.

Dong Bancheng?

It’s almost Dong Banzhou.

It is hard to imagine that this poor young man from Lizhu Dongtian, who dropped out of school in the past, started his business by selling wontons and glutinous rice wine.

But no matter how rich he is, it doesn't stop Dong Shuijing from being a loser in Lin Shou's eyes...

In the same way, no matter how high Lin Shouyi's cultivation level is now, in Dong Shuijing's eyes, he is just a coward. How useful are you, Lin Shouyi, in studying? Aren't you just a loser who follows you?

At dusk, Zhou Haijing moved a stool and sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. He held an exquisite fan embroidered with a lady playing with butterflies and shook it gently, making the hair on his temples and the collar of his clothes flutter.

It's very elegant to use the light fan to flutter the fireflies. All ladies are like this.

The two ordinary young men at the door had made up their minds to rely on her, Aunt Zhou. She was a foreigner, but she was also a practicing artist. Wasn't she just a storyteller who had a unique skill and was playing in the world of prostitutes?

A handsome young man named Wan Yan sat at the door with his back to the yard, holding his chin in a daze.

The tall young man sat sideways at the door, laughing, wishing that he had learned a magical method and could become the fan in Aunt Zhou's hand.

Zhou Haijing bent his fingers and pointed at Gaoyou.

Gao You said with a smile: "Sister Zhou, when are you going to find a brother-in-law? Wan Yan and I can help with the wine and collect the money."

Zhou Haijing said lazily: "It is easy to find a priceless treasure, but it is rare to find a lover."

Gao You laughed and said, "Sister Zhou, what do you think of me? Why don't you just marry me? I will definitely support you in the future."

Zhou Haijing glanced at the young man and said, "I think you and Wan Yan should make do with each other. As good brothers, you will suffer a little loss today and he will suffer a little loss tomorrow. No one will suffer a loss anyway."

I'm so fat and exhausted, this Aunt Zhou's words are really damaging.

In fact, these two young men are both poor bastards who have a father but no mother. It is impossible to say that they are decent, but if they are crooked, there is actually nothing bad in their stomachs.

It is normal for young people who are still young and young to see a woman with swollen breasts and slender waist to stop looking at her and want to take a few more glances.

It's just that a boy will be a boy after all. If he really meets the woman he likes, he may be unable to sleep for half the night just by holding hands during the day.

But if a man sees a pretty woman, he has to think about where the bed is.

Just like that tall guy who is fussy the first time they meet, he secretly likes a girl who is his childhood sweetheart, and when they meet on the street, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense, and he is full just by looking at her.

Wan Yan, on the other hand, is more calm. He has a lot of thoughts at a young age. If he was born in a wealthy family and could read a book, he might actually be a promising scholar. It's just that reincarnation is not up to anyone.

Zhou Haijing was absent-minded, listening to the two young men at the door talking about the strange and interesting things that had happened in the capital recently, such as the two Jianghu sects who had a fierce fight on Hulu Street at night, and the nearby medical center in the past two days.

Business was very good, and there were two immortal masters who came out of the deep mountains and forests, and they had a solid battle of skills. Among them was a legendary swordsman, who was very impressive. I heard that the old swordsman that night stood there.

On the street, a loud roar was heard in the sky, causing countless roof tiles to shatter. Leaves fell to the ground. Then he opened his mouth and spat out, and a sword ball came out that kept spinning without falling to the ground. With a swish, it was like a sword ball.

It turned into a golden rope several miles long and dragged another immortal master back to the ground. The storyteller on the other side of Jiaobei Bridge the next day said that if the sword immortal was really based on his seniority,

He also has to count his uncles from the same sect but from a different lineage.

At that time, some good people made trouble and asked Mr. Storyteller how did you become a storyteller. The old man was not surprised. He sighed and looked lonely. Suddenly he was shocked and said that he was indeed a fairy, but it was a pity that he was greedy for credit and rushed in by mistake.

Wrong path, practice is useless.

Despite the crowd of booing spectators, it is said that several ancestral secret books were sold that day.

Of course I want to buy Gaoyou, but I haven't agreed on the price and it's too expensive. The storyteller offered me three taels of silver, saying that it depends on Gaoyou's strong bones. Otherwise, don't say three taels, or even thirty taels. There's no such thing as Gaoyou.

Lard sucks my heart, I think I'm crazy about money, three coins of silver is about the same. It's passed down from ancestors, it only lasts for a day or two, right?

But in his words at this moment, the tall young man still felt a little regretful, feeling that he might have really missed out on a fate with the immortal family.

Zhou Haijing rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Sword Immortal?

The man in green shirt you saw earlier is the real Sword Immortal on the Mountain.

She curled her lips and said, Yu Pu Realm is really scary to death.

If this is a flower-picking thief who takes advantage of sex, what should I do?

After being defeated again and again, the other party claimed to be in charge of the earthly branches for the time being. She was a yellow-flowered girl, so she was not able to control the earth and the earth every day.

Zhou Haijing is certainly not stupid. In the previous chat over drinking water with Chen Ping An, both parties had hidden secrets about many things. This is human nature.

Chen Ping'an hoped that she would take the initiative to find him and make an honest deal between the two parties.

The other party can't be said to be overbearing, and can even be considered very sincere. When it comes to doing business, the buyer clearly has his heart, but if he can endure his greed, he can avoid being forced to raise the price by the seller. In the same business, Chen Ping'an, this

Buyer, how can a buyer force a sale with a seller? Zhou Haijing was actually a little moved at that time. After all, Yu Lao Ping Fu’s status in the world is not low now. Especially in the Battle of the Capital Battlefield, Yu Hong was good at fishing for fame.

She earned a lot of goodwill from people in the mountains and down the mountain, especially when Yu Hong got a first-class amulet from the Great Li Dynasty, which made her feel even more troublesome. She had to take revenge, and everyone in Fushu Hall and several sects had to be killed. At the same time,

You have to live too.

It's just that Zhou Haijing is used to traveling alone in the world, and she really doesn't want to create extraneous problems, dragging her feet, and acting based on other people's glances. This is not her style.

Two hundred and twenty-three lives, one life for another. Zhou Haijing may not take one more life than Yu Hong, but he must not take one less life!

In the dusk, at the corner of the alley, a handsome and strange man walked out.

This is Su Lang's second visit to Zhou Haijing. He has just received a secret order from the Great Li Xing Department and will soon leave the capital to settle in the south of Aquarius Continent. He will be responsible for secretly building a Jianghu sect in the territory of the old Baishuang Dynasty. In ten years

After that, if the scale and power of this sect meets the requirements of the "big plan" within the Great Li Punishment Department and gets a good test, Su Lang can retire with success and be promoted to the second-class priest. For Su Lang,

It’s not a hard job, there’s no place in life without being in the world.

As a welcome gift, today Su Lang brought a pot of Xianjia wine from the mountain and a piece of crispy pork wrapped in oil paper as an appetizer.

With sharp eyes, he saw the uninvited guest who was incompatible with this place, and poked his friend with his elbow, "Is he also a master?"

Compared to the man in green shirt wearing cloth shoes a few days ago, the man in front of me, with a piece of green bamboo hanging from his waist and a sword on his back, obviously looked more like a master.

Wan Yan turned around and said, "Like."

Gao You immediately patted his butt and got up, trotted towards the master and asked, "Who is this master looking for?"

In fact, the young man guessed with his butt and knew that he was here for Aunt Zhou. Otherwise, what was he trying to do?

Although there were some prostitutes in the alley ahead who were engaged in the sex trade, the man in front of them would definitely not look down upon them.

Su Lang turned a deaf ear.

The tall young man walked sideways and said shamelessly, "I can help lead the way. I'm willing to reward you with a few cents. That would be the best."

Two teenagers once stole a costume of the God of Wealth from the theater. When the New Year came, they would go to a place far away and look for those shops to visit to "wishes for the New Year". Wanyan could talk and use some refined words, but the shops were afraid of bad luck and did not dare to do so.

If you beat and scold the "God of Wealth" during the New Year, you will be given some copper coins.

Su Lang ignored this sneaky young man and walked straight to the door.

Zhou Haijing stood up, waved his fan, patted his shoulders, came to the door, glanced at the wine bottle in Su Lang's hand, and said with a smile: "Next time, you'd better bring a bottle of wine from Changchun Palace."

Good wine makes people greedy.

Su Lang said helplessly: "Ms. Zhou is giving me a hard time. The price is expensive, but luckily I can afford it even if I grit my teeth. This Changchun wine has always been priceless in the capital. The new wine every year has long been given to the immortal master and monks on the mountain."

The land has been divided among the dignitaries, and outsiders like me have no chance.

Nowadays, whether you can drink Changchun Palace Immortal Brew on Aquarius Island is a status symbol.

Changchun Palace is the local force of the Song family in Dali. Although there are currently no monks in the fifth realm, the Song family has a lot of support for Changchun Palace. In the Song family's Longxing land, among the several mausoleum guardians

, there was a Supreme Patriarch of Changchun Palace.

Seeing that the two young men wanted to be door gods, Zhou Haijing held down Gao You's head, twisted his wrist, made the tall young man turn around, and kicked him on the butt, "No matter how good-looking a woman is, she can't fart. I'm hungry."

, just touch the chicken shit and eat it like candy. It’s everywhere, and you’ll definitely be full.”

After sending the two teenagers away, he returned to the yard, reached out and pulled a bench from the house and threw it to Su Lang. With another stretch of his hand, Su Lang threw the oil paper bag to Zhou Haijing.

Zhou Haijing was drinking and eating crispy meat alone, and said with shining eyes: "When I took the Xianjia Ferry for the first time, I thought that I would also open a wine shop in the future, and I would have to let the entire Aquarius Island Xianjia Ferry,

They all help me sell wine, tsk tsk, and once the accounts are settled at the end of the year, I will convert the fairy money into yellow and white things, and it will be a mountain of gold and silver, it is really beautiful to think about."

Su Lang just smiled and drank, not taking it seriously.

If Zhou Haijing really wants to earn immortal money, there are many ways in the mountains. As long as she is willing to be shameless, she can earn a large sum of money every year just by relying on those offerings and the title of guest minister.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yu Hong is old and has come down the mountain, but Zhou Haijing is still on the way up the mountain. Once she succeeds in reaching the end, the scenery will be endless.

Let’s just talk about Tongyezhou in the south. Before the mountains, rivers and land were destroyed, there were only a few warriors in this continent with more than a hundred mountains and rivers in the past? It seems that they were Wu Sheng and Huang Yiyun.

As for Aaizhou, which has little martial arts, there is only one person named Lei Gongmiao Pei Axiang.

If the Middle-earth Divine Continent is not included, the other eight continents of Haoran are evenly divided, and it is roughly a "legendary rule" for a continent to have two or three "endless warriors, sitting in the mountains and rivers".

Zhou Haijing joked: "Don't you have a good relationship with General Shi? You don't know that when I was in the Jianghu sect, I heard the old gang leader mention General Shi, a man as big as the sky. According to the old gang leader, there are

A fart is almost like thunder."

Su Lang smiled and said, "Is there still such a thing?"

I knew that Zhou Haijing was talking about General Long Shuo, a fourth-grade miscellaneous general in the Great Li Frontier Army. For the vassal states of Aquarius Continent in the early years, he was indeed as big a figure as the Supreme Emperor.

After leaving his hometown in his early years, Zhou Haijing lived incognito and wandered around the world. He even worked in a water transport gang and gained a position of real power by relying on his martial arts skills.

He is even more diligent in making money than Yamazawa Yexiu. For example, he goes to the ancient battlefield site that is full of evil spirits. While tempering the warrior's body, he digs three feet into the ground, picks out the broken armor and bundles of arrows, and then sells them to the warriors at a high price.

The monks in the lower five realms who make a living under the guise of slaying demons and slaying demons may steal copper coins from ordinary people's houses, or deliberately use a bronze mirror to help rich people exorcise evil spirits, or pretend to be a master.

The female Sword Fairy of the Immortal Mansion, spitting wine and swiping her fingers, secretly used her martial arts energy to create a scene of the Immortal Mansion surrounded by lightning, and helped to clean up those haunted houses that could not be sold at low prices. In fact, she relied on

You can earn real hard-earned money by using your fists and kicks to kill those ghosts and monsters.

It’s hard to look back on the past, and it will bring tears of bitterness if I talk about it too much.

Drink, drink.

Zhou Haijing seemed to recall a past incident, and said with a click of his tongue: "The great Li cavalry drew their knives on the battlefield, that was really ruthless."

She is now half a hundred years old, but she is less than twenty years old. She has left her hometown and wandered around. She has begun to wander alone in the rivers and lakes. She has traveled all over the country for many years. She has also seen many powerful frontier troops from various countries and proud generals.

The war horses are strong, brave and good at fighting, and they kill the people in the rivers and lakes. It is like a powerful force, chopping melons and vegetables. But when they encounter the Dali border troops who are heading south with their horses' hooves, they are as fragile as paper.

One time Zhou Haijing was full and wanted to see with his own eyes the power of the Great Li cavalry. It was really like cutting tofu with a knife, just like a strong young man bullying a child wearing crotchless pants.

But it was during that appearance that Zhou Haijing was discovered by the monks accompanying the Great Li Iron Cavalry, but neither party took action. However, she was later targeted by Nian Ganlang of the Punishment Department, and her name was recorded by the Punishment Department of the Great Li.

It was recorded. Fortunately, Zhou Haijing was well prepared and did not reveal any more flaws.

Su Lang didn't plan to stay here for a long time. Before leaving, he gathered his voices and said: "Before leaving, I have to remind Miss Zhou to pay attention to Chen Pingan."

Zhou Haijing laughed casually and said: "Are you a sanctimonious hypocrite? He likes to cheat money and sex?"

Su Lang shook his head, "On the contrary, Chen Ping'an is very old-school in his work, but to be honest, Miss Zhou, don't be angry. If you want to compete in calculations, you may not be this person's opponent. He is used to planning before he does things.

, the matter of Wenli Zhengyang Mountain was simply devastating, tearing a sect to pieces. In my opinion, what Zhengyang Mountain was destroyed by Chen Pingan was not a visible ancestral hall at all, but various

The complicated human heart of Brother Feng.”

It wasn't that Su Lang had a good impression of Chen Pingan, it was just that the Green Bamboo Sword Immortal was arrogant and did not allow him to open his eyes and tell lies.

Zhou Haijing nodded and said: "It makes sense."

Su Lang didn't know if she really heard it, so after saying that, he got up and left.

Zhou Haijing stood up, threw away the oil paper, shook the wine bottle in his hand, and said with a smile: "I wish Su Jianxian a smooth sailing on this trip."

After Su Lang left.

Zhou Haijing started to shake the fan again, her thoughts swaying with the wind. While sighing, she reminded herself not to sigh, as it would easily lead to loss of wealth. But when she thought about how hard it was to earn money and her family was not rich, the woman couldn't help but sigh.

Gao You suddenly yelled outside, "Aunt Zhou, Mr. Chen is here again, and today he has a friend with him!"

Zhou Haijing followed Ge Ling to the Imperial Government Office of the Capital City last time, and met the prince Song Xu by the way. Unfortunately, judging from his posture, he didn't look like a pervert who could rob civilian girls and hide their beauty in a golden house. It was fine, since Song Xu

He is an Earth Immortal Sword Cultivator, so His Highness the Second Prince of Da Li will no longer be able to sit on the dragon chair and wear dragon robes, and will not even have the chance to become a king or a vassal.

Zhou Haijing immediately shouted: "Let Mr. Chen wait for a moment."

I need to put on my makeup quickly.

Of course I don't have any bad thoughts about Chen Ping'an.

Zhou Haijing stood at the door of the house, looked at Chen Ping'an on the other side of the courtyard door, and said jokingly: "My Sect Leader Chen, can you please stop pestering me as a married woman? It would be unpleasant to spread the word. I don't care, I'm just afraid.

It will damage Sect Leader Chen’s innocent reputation.”

Chen Pingan walked into the courtyard and said, "Miss Zhou is joking."

Zhou Haijing caught a glimpse of the entourage with the yellow hat and blue shoes and asked, "Who is this young master?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Just call him Xiaomo."

Zhou Haijing glanced at Xiao Mo from head to toe and asked with a smile: "How small is it?"

Xiao Mo smiled and said: "The knowledge here is so hidden that it cannot be revealed to outsiders."

Zhou Haijing choked for words for a moment.

Hey, are you still a glib person?

If you were outside the capital and dared to tease me like this, I would slap you and make you spin in circles.

Xiaomo noticed the "content" of this woman's heartstrings and smiled.

After entering the main room, the two parties sat opposite each other as before.

Xiao Mo said something from his heart, Chen Pingan nodded, and Xiao Mo turned around and left the yard.

In an alley not far away, there was a sneaky old man, a swordsman, more than two hundred years old, in the sea-watching realm. His body and spirit were decayed, and his life was short.

Since there was nothing to do, Xiao Mo went to chat with this old man who had followed him for several streets.

Zhou Haijing took out a pot of wine, poured two bowls of wine, and asked curiously: "Is Zongzhu Chen really from a poor background like me, as rumored by the outside world? He also worked as a kiln worker in his hometown for several years?"

It was true that she was ignorant and ignorant before, and was the cause of the trouble because she was unwilling to spend money to look at the flowers in the mirror, making Zhou Haijing mistakenly think that this young sect leader who was born in Aquarius Continent was a descendant of the Immortal family on the mountain, or he was from a wealthy family in Dali.

That's why she was particularly displeased. She just relied on her ancestral influence to get a golden job and didn't know the sufferings of the people. She pretended to be an approachable gentleman like me and Zhou Haijing.

Let’s just say that during that war, why did a young swordsman have no achievements and no achievements? Let’s look at Wei Jin, the great swordsman of Fengxue Temple. Why don’t you, Chen Pingan, be greedy for life and afraid of death?

Only after asking around again, she discovered that this was not the case at all.

Zhou Haijing was born as a fisherman, and the other party was a kiln worker in a back alley. One lives in the water and the other lives in the mountains, so they have similar backgrounds?

If I had known this was the case, Zhou Haijing would probably have said a few less sinister words when we last met.

In addition, Pei Qian, who was nicknamed "Zheng Saqian", was heard to be the direct disciple of this young swordsman.

This made Zhou Haijing's impression of Chen Ping'an a little better, and he had to take a higher look.

Although the master did not show his face and never drew his sword, he taught him such a good apprentice.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It means that Yu Hong and a large group of disciples and grandchildren.

Up and down the mountain, there are very few exceptions to what kind of masters and what kind of disciples they teach.

So the mountain master of Luolu Mountain must have had some difficulties in hiding his name for so many years, so that he missed the tragic battle from Laolongcheng all the way to the capital of Dali?

A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea, with nine twists and turns, but that's all.

Chen Pingan just nodded.

Zhou Haijing smiled and narrowed his eyes, raised the wine bowl and took a sip, "Do you really have the skills to chop wood and burn charcoal? Do you know how to pick wood, build a kiln and seal the door? You have to stay in the mountains for five or six days. Can you bear the hardship?

"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "We are all quite familiar."

Zhou Haijing shook his head and said, "I don't believe it."

Chen Ping'an didn't say anything. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. He didn't even take a sip of wine from you.

In any case, the earlier deal couldn't be completed. From now on, the two sides will just stay on the same page.

Chen Ping'an was about to stand up and say goodbye, and then explain clearly the reason for today's visit, it would only take a few sentences anyway.

But Zhou Haijing smiled and said, "Why are you so anxious? I've knocked on the widow's door twice. Besides, it's not a lonely man and a widow. I haven't even finished the bowl of wine on the table. Why, I was right.

Can I drink plain water, but not bad wine?"

Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment.

Zhou Haijing said with a smile: "Sect Master Chen, after all, finish a bowl of wine before leaving. Don't worry, there is no poison in it, and there is no sweat medicine in it. The aphrodisiac is even more ridiculous. It's very expensive. I can't bear it."

Chen Ping'an raised his wine bowl towards Zhou Haijing, she also raised her bowl, and they each took a sip of wine.

Zhou Haijing narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Being a kiln worker, if I remember correctly, is a first-class official kiln job in the Great Li Dynasty. Do you still need to burn charcoal to make money?"

Chen Pingan said slowly: "I am just an apprentice, no more than a formal kiln worker. In fact, the wages are not much, so I have to find some extra income to supplement my family income. If it is an especially cold winter, I can almost earn a hundred kilograms of white charcoal in the mountains.

It costs one to two or five yuan. It takes less effort to burn black charcoal, and the market price is cheaper. But we sell the charcoal, and the rich people in the town collect the charcoal. We have to go through the process, and I heard that the price difference is not small."

When going into the mountains to cut firewood and burn charcoal, Chen Ping'an usually brings a jar of pickles and a large bag of rice. Next to the charcoal kiln, he builds a sheltered grass and wood shed, sets up a stove and makes a fire. Occasionally, he can roast potatoes and simmer potatoes.

, Moreover, Chen Pingan learned a lot of skills from Liu Xianyang. Every time he went into the mountains, he took a lot of things with him to catch fish in cages and set traps. However, if he followed Old Man Yao into the mountains to search for soil, Chen Pingan would never dare to do this.

"Fancy.

Zhou Haijing stepped on the bench with one foot and exclaimed: "In order to gain experience and see how the emperor lived, I once took the risk of sneaking into the palace of a small country during the first month of the year, and I actually saw him.

I saw two lifelike door gods in colorful clothes outside a palace. They were almost as tall as humans. They were dressed in silk and satin, wearing colorful armor, and hanging real swords and spears. They looked angry at me. At first, I was frightened.

I jumped a lot, but when I came up to touch it, Sect Master Chen, what do you think it is made of?"

Chen Ping'an didn't even need to guess, he said directly: "There are several small countries in the middle of Aquarius Continent. In the palace, there is a custom of erecting General Tan as the door god. He invites him out from the imperial treasury at the end of each year and brings him back on February 2nd of the following year. Be sure to make up for it."

The make-up is as good as new and has not been damaged at all. It will be reapplied as usual at the end of the year. According to the saying in Jianghu, charcoal is more valuable than living people. It is said that some "hundred-year-old" charcoal generals are estimated to be contaminated with dragon energy and can survive.

During that 'duty' period, I could parade around the imperial city every night, and I was more powerful than the night-wandering gods in the Capital City God's Temple. However, I am not as knowledgeable as Miss Zhou. I just heard about it and have never seen it with my own eyes, so I am quite curious."

Zhou Haijing no longer had any doubts, so he asked bluntly: "This time you come to visit, you still have to get to the bottom of it. Only if you find out that Yu Hong and I have an sworn hatred will you be satisfied?"

Chen Pingan waved his hand and said with a smile: "I changed my mind, just because I am leaving the capital soon, so I came here today just to remind Miss Zhou of one thing. Whether I want to seek revenge with Yu Hong in the future, I accidentally started a misunderstanding that will never end.

'Forget it, remember not to implicate the two senior gangsters in Yuhong's Fushu Hall, one is named Zhu Fengxian and the other is named Yu Cangmang. Now these two seniors are elders of Fushu Hall. They just joined the gang not long ago, and they are actually in the gang.

Now that we have eaten, I hope that no matter what happens in the future, I hope that Miss Zhou will be open to them so that they can escape."

Zhou Haijing sneered and said: "There are some disputes in the rivers and lakes, swords and swords, fists and feet without eyes. Anyone who says a word may be killed on the spot. Master Chen is not the kind of person who doesn't know the dangers of martial arts fighting. Isn't it a little difficult for me?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "If the two seniors are involved, Miss Zhou can say something to them in advance and say that I am Miss Zhou's friend. If the two seniors insist on not retreating, they must get involved in this grudge."

, then everyone can only listen to fate."

Zhou Haijing hesitated for a moment, "Okay. But just think that Master Chen owes me a small favor?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Okay."

Zhou Haijing suddenly said: "Actually, Sect Master Chen doesn't look like a swordsman, but more like a scholar."

The man who lived in a foreign country and worked as a school teacher once said that as the sages say, the original intention of studying is Yuanyuan.

She once said to her that if a child draws a road with charcoal, the ants will not dare to cross it.

Zhou Haijing once often sleepwalked through an ancient ruins. In front of a main hall, there was a bronze statue of an immortal holding something with empty hands. The osmanthus tree was ruined, the ground was covered with moss, the palace was deserted and overgrown with weeds. Almost every time she would meet a self-proclaimed

The man from Qiufengke rode on horseback and patrolled the night, talking casually, saying that he had worked hard to refine elixirs and seek immortality during his lifetime, and that he dreamed of immortality. Zhou Haijing walked with him all the way, and the man's body disappeared at dawn. It was a strange and weird dream.

Before she left home, she asked the master from the school to help her interpret her dream, and he said it was a kind of destiny.

Zhou Haijing raised her head and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, then put down the empty wine bowl. She stared at the white bowl, lowered her head and said, "Sect Leader Chen is a Taoist. I must know that there is a saying on your mountain that it is not easy for us to reincarnate as human beings."

Chen Pingan nodded, "It's not easy."

Zhou Haijing said in a deep voice: "The land that gave birth to me and raised me must repay the favor!"

Chen Pingan answered: "If you can no longer repay your kindness, you must avenge it."

Zhou Haijing raised his head, showing an expression of surprise that could not be concealed.

"In life, there are grievances and repayments of debts. Children of the world repay kindness and revenge."

Chen Ping'an said calmly: "Otherwise, what would we do with our hard work practicing martial arts?"

Zhou Haijing hesitated for a moment, then took the initiative to hand over the wine bowl, probably thinking of touching the bowl and taking away a drink.

Chen Ping'an was actually more hesitant, but still raised the wine bowl and touched it gently.

Snakes follow the river, and drunkards follow the water.

Zhou Haijing finished the drink in one gulp, wiped the corners of his mouth, and asked doubtfully: "Isn't Sect Master Chen a swordsman? How can I start talking about hard training in martial arts?"

I knew that Chen Ping'an was a great master with a high level of martial arts, but I always felt that compared to the opponent's status as a swordsman, his martial arts skills seemed trivial.

Chen Pingan shook his head and said with a smile: "Learning boxing once helped me survive, so how dare I not be careless. Relatively speaking, practicing swordsmanship, especially becoming a swordsman, comes very late."

Zhou Haijing asked: "Are you a martial artist?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "Otherwise, how could I be Pei Qian's master?"

Zhou Haijing asked tentatively: "Sect Master Chen, are you attracted to me?"

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "Miss Zhou, please stop joking like this."

Zhou Haijing laughed angrily and said, "Then why are you bragging to me?"

To say that Chen Ping'an is at the top of the mountain, Zhou Haijing would still be dubious, but to say that he is at the top of the mountain?!

Then why don't you go and compete with Song Changjing?

Xiao Mo appeared at the entrance of the hospital, but there was an old man beside him.

Gao You and Wan Yan, who stayed in the alley but did not leave, were a little surprised because the old man looked familiar. He was the storyteller who spat under the overpass and sold a few secret books.

Xiao Mo explained to Chen Ping'an from the bottom of his heart that it turned out that this old swordsman in Guanhai Realm claimed to be proficient in physiognomy, and he saw the fate of the young man Wan Yan at a glance. After observing the young man's character for a period of time, he felt that he could inherit part of it.

The mantle of Taoism is just a matter of refining the sword, hanging.

When the old man saw the man in green shirt in the courtyard, he immediately calmed down, lowered his head and clasped his fists, and said in his heart: "The big hermit hides in the court, the small hermit hides in the wild, the old man can only play in the market, not as much as Chen Jianxian."

Chen Pingan clasped his fists in return and said with a smile from his heart: "I am very happy to have you accept a disciple."

Zhou Haijing leaned against the courtyard door and asked, "Chen Ping'an, are you really a dead end?"

Chen Ping'an treated people with sincerity and replied: "It's true."

Zhou Haijing's eyes were strange, "What's the scene like on that mountain top?"

Chen Pingan said: "It's not high enough."

Zhou Haijing looked at the man in green shirt's eyes and expression.

Damn it, why does this guy look so handsome?

It seems that I am too drunk.

Could it be that this guy poured some ecstasy soup into his drink?

Zhou Haijing laughed to himself.

Don’t delay other people’s apprenticeships.

The main thing is Zhou Haijing's inexplicable smile, which makes people look at him.

Chen Ping'an and Xiao Mo returned to Renyun Yiyun Tower.

Lieutenant Xian was sound asleep in the side room.

In the alley outside Zhou Haijing's house, the old man pointed out the reason, told his sect disciples, and asked Wan Yan to follow him to practice.

The handsome young man glanced at Gao You, hesitated for a moment, nodded, and just told Gao You that he would definitely come back.

The old man told Wan Yan not to take anything with him and left the alley together.

Gao You actually hoped that Wan Yan would just leave like this, but also thought that Wan Yan could not leave and stay as a companion to share the joys and sorrows together. But his good friend finally left, and it didn't seem to be a bad thing. In short, the heart of a tall young man

, empty.

Zhou Haijing looked at the young man with complicated mood, squatting at the door and holding his head.

She sighed, gave Gao You an address somewhere in the capital, waved her hand and said, "You go find someone at the address. His name is Su Lang. He is the guy who brought the wine. Just say that I asked you to find him."

, and then let him teach you a few martial arts moves. As for how much you can learn, it depends on your own ability."

Gao You suddenly turned his head and choked with sobs: "Thank you, Aunt Zhou."

Zhou Haijing laughed angrily and said: "You little bastard, call me Sister Zhou!"

Gao You grinned and ran away. He planned to go home and pack his packages first, but he ran to the corner, turned around and shouted at the top of his voice: "Aunt Zhou, remember to tell her for me tomorrow, I'm going to travel in the world."

Already."

Zhou Haijing didn't say anything.

What good is there in the world of martial arts?

But for a young man, it is better to have truly gone through the world, no matter whether he ends up doing well or badly, whether he returns home in fine clothes or is lost in despair, than watching the world from afar all his life.

At dawn, Ning Yao finished her retreat. Inside the inn, she walked to Chen Pingan's Renyun Yiyun Building.

Xianwei was squatting at the door of the wing with Xiaomo, eating breakfast together.

When the Xianwei saw the woman carrying the sword box, he was so shocked that he silently extended his thumb to Master Cao.

Chen Ping'an didn't have any packages to prepare. He just asked Xianwei to finish eating and then hurried on, leaving Dali Capital City.

After Xianwei finished eating in two or three bites, he clapped his hands and was about to call out to Xiao Mo, please don't let Cao Xian Master wait too long, when he realized that Xiao Mo had already stood up and stood aside.

I'm done with this bitch.

A group of people went to the inn to check out.

The old shopkeeper smiled and joked: "Chen Shaoxia is going back home now? He hasn't made a name for himself yet. Why don't he stay for a few more days? Not to mention that he is more famous than the old master Yu, but he can't lose to Zhou Haijing."

A woman from the world, right?"

Chen Pingan leaned against the counter and said with a smile: "Come back, Beijing is expensive. I would like to stay a few more days, but I don't have the money in my pocket to agree."

"Next time you come to the capital, if you are still willing to stay in a small store, I will give you a 10% discount."

"If the shopkeeper doesn't give you half the discount, even if I come to the capital next time, I won't come to your place."

"How can you bargain so hard? Mr. Chen, it would be a pity if you don't do business."

Shopkeeper Liu's precious daughter, whose name is Luchai and whose nickname is Taimi, also got up early and is already busy with a rag and a bucket, but she is still a little sleepy at the moment.

Although the girl is a little out of her mind when it comes to dreaming about the world and being a heroine, she actually helps out in the shop and does trivial things on weekdays so that she can earn some money from her father. Spending money is easy.

It’s hard to make money. I blame myself for reading too quickly.

Chen Ping'an would remind Zeng Ye that he could visit Dali Capital in the future. If we are destined, we will meet each other.

The girl saw Ning Yao and shouted: "Master Ning!"

Ning Yao shook his head and said: "I am not your master."

The girl grinned and shouted casually. Master Ning, you don't have to be so serious. She asked, "Are you leaving? When will you come?"

Ning Yao smiled and said, "It's hard to say."

The girl said oh, still a little disappointed. But it's okay. Children of the world can afford it and let it go. Green mountains and clear waters will come later.

The old shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his daughter didn't make any noise and ran away from home.

The capital has set up the Du Shui Supervisory Office, which is under the supervision of the Ministry of Industry. The doctor of the Ministry of Water and the Du Shui Cleaning Department are all high-ranking officials in charge of each one. The eldest son of the old shopkeeper is working as a subordinate official of river control there, responsible for keeping an eye on everyone.

He was engaged in sluice and dam affairs and river bed dredging. He was a government official and not very promising. He managed to maintain a good harvest despite droughts and floods. In addition, he was able to participate in the planting and maintenance of elms and willows, which also gave him some extra income. The second son opened a silk shop in the north of the capital.

The shop can be regarded as a family and a business. Therefore, the old shopkeeper now only has this precious daughter who is the most troublesome in front of him. The reason why he is not troublesome is of course because he feels the most distressed.

The group got on a southbound ferry and left Beijing to return home.

Nowadays, as the Dali garrison gradually withdraws from Niujiao Crossing, ferry crossings become more frequent.

Thanks to the existence of Piyun Mountain and the confluence of the Sanjiang River, Niujiao Ferry has become one of the important hub ferries between the north and south routes of Dali.

Chen Pingan, Ning Yao. Xiaomo, Xianwei.

There were only two people when we arrived, but there were two more people when we left.

Wearing a green shirt.

Ning Yao wore a golden robe and carried a sword box on her back. She didn't bother to use any tricks.

Xiao Mo always wore a shabby appearance with a yellow hat and blue shoes. After Xianwei visited the Imperial Government Office of the Capital, he became more courageous and prepared to tinker with a mahogany sword that is standard for Taoists in Tianshi Mansion.

Already.

One person per room.

This was the first time that Xianwei took the Xianjia ferry with white clouds and birds, and he felt that he had finally become rich.

Ning Yao is reading in the house.

Chen Pingan took Xiaomo and Xianwei to the bow of the ship to enjoy the scenery.

At this moment, I heard a large group of young monks gathered nearby, chatting without any words, speaking freely, as if they were from several different mountain sects, and they just met at the ferry. After boarding the boat,

We made an appointment to meet up with those beautiful female qi practitioners who came from the same sect and traveled down the mountain. This is how the incestuous relationship came about.

Because there were so many fairies, the male Qi practitioners began to show off their magical powers. Some showed literary talents, bowed their heads and chanted in silence, talking about the grief of the country's subjugation, the pain of the family's destruction, and the sorrow of life. Time is fleeting, but life is not long, and shed tears.

Some people reveal their wealth inadvertently. In fact, this is more immediate than showing off their talents.

Among the young Immortal Genealogy Masters, no matter how rich they are, they are divided into three, six, and nine grades.

Those who own a private ferry are really rich. Generally speaking, only the children of Taoist monks in Daxian Mansion have this kind of treatment.

Then there is the talisman flying boat that eats money. Then when going out, the immortal master can ride immortal birds and animals.

Finally, of course, you have to travel across mountains and rivers on two legs. If you are in a hurry, you can at most use some magical talismans and armor-horse talismans that are made of ordinary materials and are relatively low-grade.

Chen Ping'an thought of Fan Er from Old Dragon City, who had an Osmanthus Island in his name.

As for Liu Youzhou of Aaizhou, forget it, there is no comparison.

The Xianwei listened carefully, it was all about experience and the world.

Somehow we started talking about Piyun Mountain and the night banquet.

Xiaomo knew it well.

Xianwei, a half-hearted qigong practitioner, could not be accurate based on the rumors spread by the world, but with the addition of these monks from the mountain genealogy, if they still say so, it is almost right.

What's more, Xianwei said the truth, and it makes sense.

People in the world can only be given wrong names, not wrong nicknames.

Wei night tour.

Xianwei felt that this "Taoist name" seemed quite domineering after hearing it too many times.

A night tour on a continent, who else would it be than Wei?

Xiao Mo hesitated for a moment and asked: "Sir, is that Lord Wei Shan?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Only speaking of appearance and bearing, elegance and elegance, ancient customs and Taoism, and forgetting the vulgarity after seeing it. If I talk about how he behaves in the world, he is affectionate and righteous, anyway, I really can't find any shortcomings."

It was just the first time that the two parties met. When Wei Bo was still the landowner of Qidun Mountain, it was more funny. It is completely different from the image of Wei Shanjun in Piyun Mountain today.

Xiaomo nodded, understanding.

It must be that my young master has something to say, and is he making an exception to remind himself that giving gifts should not be taken lightly?

It seems that Wei Shanjun's nickname is by no means a wasted one.

Chen Ping'an had no idea what Xiao Mo was thinking, otherwise he would definitely cry out for Wei Shanjun.

These years have not been easy for Wei Bo.

The fame of the night banquet at Piyun Mountain has spread to Zhongtu Shenzhou and Beiju Luzhou.

Over there in my hometown.

A small town in Huaihuang County, there are many places of interest and historical sites. Today, there are as many people visiting the immortal as crucian carp crossing the river.

For example, the Wenwu temples built in Shenxian Tomb and Laoci Mountain are like the capital city god among the city god temples of a country. In fact, the civil and military temples in various countries in Jiuzhou, unlike the city god temples, do not have high or low levels. They are nothing more than ancestral temples to worship those who have made contributions to the country.

The civil servants and military generals of the country, but the civil and military temples built by Da Li in these two places occupy a large area.

You must take a look at the Suolongjing ruins. The peach blossoms on both sides of Peach Leaf Lane are extremely magical. The blooming and falling of the flowers are different from other places. Over the years, foreign tourists with poor hands often steal peach branches, and then they will

He was immediately escorted to the county government, where he had to pay a large amount of immortal money, and if he didn't get enough, he would also have to eat in jail.

In addition, there are the Cao family's ancestral house in Niping Lane, the Yuan family's ancestral house in Erlang Lane, the peach blossom cakes at the New Year's Eve shop in Qilong Lane, and the wine shop of Huang Si's family. Although they sell ordinary drinks, the woman is already elderly.

With age and beauty, it was his son and daughter-in-law who inherited the family business. However, it is said that the saint Ruan Qiong was a frequent customer of this wine shop. Even the mountain master Sword Immortal of Luolu Mountain would often go down to the mountain specifically to meet with that wine shop.

Longquan Sword Sect's friend Liu Xianyang, who is also a swordsman, got drunk together here. So when a foreigner travels here, he is not allowed to sit down and soak up the immortal spirit?

It's a pity that the Luo Luo Mountain, which is famous all over the continent, looks like a closed mountain. It doesn't welcome guests and has to stop outside the mountain.

Then there are the large and small porcelain shops in the town, with a dazzling array of products, and the selling prices are much lower than those at Xianjia Ferry in other places. Although they don’t cost fairy money, who doesn’t like to get a bargain?

What's more, if you don't buy a piece of continent-renowned porcelain to take back when you come to Longzhou, it would be a waste of time.

In Huaihuang County, many dragon kilns in the past started as official kilns. Several of the kilns were built and inspected by the supervisors, and the royal kilns for the emperor to pick up were naturally the highest-ranking among the official kilns.

There is a strict hierarchy and clear etiquette, otherwise we wouldn't have smashed so many defective porcelains and eventually piled up a mountain of old porcelain.

Times have changed, and now some of the kilns have lost their status as official kilns and have had to be converted into second-class private kilns that are no longer supervised and purchased by the government.

Several of the kiln entrances were secretly purchased by Dong Shuijing, and many long kiln masters who had stopped working were hired with huge sums of money to make them come back to work. Most of these masters had been kiln masters, even if they were only responsible for supervising the work and firing porcelain.

The standard of porcelain is still very different from that of porcelain without them at the kiln entrance, not to mention that these old masters are restless masters, and the new owner is very generous with the money, so the salary after one year is extremely considerable, not to mention that due to

The apprentices they brought out were all good, and they had solid craftsmanship gained through years of hard work and scolding. Therefore, the various Longzhou porcelains produced in these private kilns are still no different from the "official-supervised civilian firing" of the official kilns in the early years.

The porcelain has a lot of names, monograms and auspicious words, so it is sold far away from the mountains and rivers of Yizhou, and has become the first-class study collection for literati from all over the world. However, Dong Shuijing still likes to hide behind the scenes, not showing off.

Chen Ping'an lay on the railing, pointed to the distance, and introduced: "We have reached the border between Longzhou and Hongzhou. In just a stick of incense, we can dock the boat at Niujiaodu."

The Xianwei raised his eyes and looked into the distance. He was too far away and could not see any flower heads. He just asked: "Master Cao, I just heard from those young immortals that the Niujiao Ferry is not an ordinary source of wealth. In addition to the big Li military ferry

, every mountain ferry that docks there has to pay a large amount of parking fees. Doesn’t this mean that you have to lie down and collect money every day? Is there such a good thing in the world? There is such a large ferry, which is where Wei Dashanjun and a man named Chen

co-owned by the Sword Immortal, good guy,"

Chen Pingan explained with a smile: "Every time a fairy ferry docks, it will consume a lot of local landscape spiritual energy. If you don't spend the immortal money, it will soon dry up and the spiritual energy will be exhausted. If you really do this, look at those who are in the dragon."

Will the genealogy masters who practice in the state and the land and the gods of mountains and rivers from all walks of life rebel? So you can't just look at making money and not look at people spending money."

The Xianwei sneered and said: "Master Cao, what you said is boring. It is obvious that you are making money every day. If you were to be half the master of the ferry, wouldn't you do it?"

Someone is speechless.

The Xianwei asked again: "This ferry will stay at Niujiao Ferry for two hours. Should we get off the boat and visit the mountains and rivers together? I heard that the porcelain in Huaihuang County is very valuable. There is no need to worry about selling it. As long as you buy it, you will make a sure profit.

No compensation, I have to buy a few!"

I still have a gold ingot on me, but I don't know if two hours will be enough for me to make a round trip from the ferry to the town. I heard that there are strict rules there, and even the immortal masters can't travel far away in the wind, so they can only walk.

Chen Ping'an said: "The destination of our trip south this time is Niujiao Ferry."

The Xianwei turned around and asked doubtfully: "We are disembarking there? Master Cao, the mountain top of your sect is in Longzhou? Then aren't we neighbors with Lord Wei Dashan?"

No wonder I used to set up stalls at Jinsudu to make money. It turned out that everyone was poor.

If you say that you are a pauper at the foot of the mountain, is Master Cao, or Master Chen, a pauper on the mountain?

Xianwei asked cautiously: "You are called Master Chen Shan. Chen Jianxian, who had an affair with Lord Wei Shan, is also named Chen. Do you recognize him?"

Chen Ping'an held back his laughter and nodded: "Of course I know him."

Xianwei breathed a sigh of relief, "With such a relationship, then you definitely don't have to go to the night party to attend the banquet, right?"

Chen Ping'an thought for a while, "That seems right."

When Xianwei said this, Chen Ping'an realized that he had indeed never attended Wei Bo's night banquet.

What's strange is that this immortal lieutenant keeps talking nonsense, but it seems that he can always tell the truth in the end?

It is really not easy to achieve what Zheng Juzhong said "not taking it seriously".

The boundaries of Huaihuang County, the Dali Imperial Court and Piyun Mountain each have a landscape prohibition. If the monks are condescending, it will be a scene of clouds and fog all year round, which is somewhat similar to the sea of ​​clouds in the old Longcheng in the early years, which makes a Yuanying Earth Immortal

It is difficult to truly get a glimpse of the scenery of mountains and rivers with the magical power of palm. Unless you get off the boat and land, you need to hang a sword charm to control the wind, overlook the mountains, and see a little more.

The ancestral mountain is Luolu Mountain, and the ancestral hall is at Jise Peak.

The remaining vassal hills, including Baolu Mountain, were leased to the Longquan Sword Sect for three hundred years. However, Liu Xianyang, who was newly appointed as the head of the Longquan Sword Sect not long ago, made a strange deal with Luopo Mountain and asked Luopo Mountain to spend money to sell it.

The three hills were rented back for almost two hundred and seventy years, and Liu Xianyang was given twenty-seven grain rain coins.

Cheilfish Back is leased to ZhuChai Island.

Niujiao Mountain with a Xianjia Ferry and Baofengzhai.

Chen Ping'an bought Zhenzhu Mountain with only one gold and copper coin. Because the easternmost mountain was too small and too close to the town, no construction was started.

In addition, there are Huimeng Mountain, Huanghu Mountain, Cinnabar Mountain, Weixia Peak, and the Sword Worship Platform in the west.

Therefore, Luopo Mountain already has eleven vassal-affiliated hills.

Xiao Mo held up his hat and squinted his eyes.

I saw a lot of things at once.

The first is the Zhanlong Cliff in Longji Mountain, the second is Piyun Mountain where Wei Shanjun is located, and then there are the mysterious layouts of the Long Kiln entrances, as well as the settings of Fulu Street and Taoye Lane.

It was clearly the generous work of Mr. Sanshanjiuhou.

And that seemingly inconspicuous stone arch bridge!

If you run into this place without knowing it, you must be extremely careful.

A small town and the mountains to the west, intricate and complicated connections, the kendo luck of bullfighting, the prosperous cultural and martial arts fortunes, the rich landscape spirit, and the wisps but essence of Shinto aftertaste, layer upon layer

Overlapping, criss-crossing, and extremely chaotic.

It was just a landscape, but it actually gave Xiao Mo the illusion that he was confronting a certain Fourteenth Realm sword cultivator.

And it’s like being face to face so close!

But for some unknown reason, there was a large, abrupt, blank space among the mountains.

It's like several mountains have been relocated.

Xiao Mo put away his eyes and sighed in his heart: "Young master, you can't make a mistake when practicing here."

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "If you think it's complicated, it's a mess that no one except the founders of the Three Religions can solve. If you think it's simple, it's just that mountains determine the flow of water, and everything stops and goes according to fate."

Xiao Mo said sincerely: "Young Master's Taoist heart is unparalleled in the world."

Chen Ping'an was so angry that he slapped Xiao Mo's hat on his head and said, "That's enough. When you get to Luo Po Mountain, you can practice your self-taught magical power. Remember, my mountain is the most unfavorable to your evil ways."

Xiao Mo smiled and held up his hat, "I remember."

Niujiaodu.

In a relatively secluded place, there is a white jade railing built on the edge of the cliff. There is a little girl in black, carrying a golden pole on her shoulders, holding a hiking stick, and carrying a small cotton bag across her body.

The little girl stared at the white clouds in the distance with wide eyes.

She didn't know how many times she asked the same question, "Jingqing, why hasn't the good mountain master come yet?"

On the side, Chen Lingjun and Bai Xuan were sitting on the railing, playing guessing games, each holding a folding fan, and whoever lost would get beaten.

These two uncles, one doesn't have to practice cultivation, the other doesn't have to practice swordsmanship, so they usually have a lot of leisure, so of course they are happy to hang out here with Xiaomi Li.

Big White Goose has already hurried to Tongyezhou in advance, taking Luopo Mountain's own Feng Yuan ferry. Cao Qinglang, Zhong Fuzi, Cui Wei, and the others on Sui's right followed.

As for Pei Qian, I don’t know why he went to Ouhua Blessed Land.

Chen Lingjun said casually: "What's the rush? According to the previous docking time of that ferry, it's almost two-quarters of an hour. Besides, for these mountain ferries, the wind direction is unpredictable, and half an hour difference is common."

Xiaomi Li scratched her face and nodded.

Chen Lingjun glanced at the millet grains, stretched her neck and widened her eyes. She was staring at a place. How long had she been staring at this place?

I received a letter from Feijian from the capital earlier and learned that I would take a certain ferry back to Luoluo Mountain today, so Xiao Mili went out early this morning. At dawn, he had already completed his patrol of the mountain.

, and then waited at Chen Lingjun’s door without knocking, just acting as a doorkeeper.

As a result, after arriving at Niujiao Mountain Ferry, the three of them still waited here for a full hour. Unfortunately, brother Bai Xuan's forehead was already swollen. If they kept waiting, haha, they would probably have to grow horns.

Chen Lingjun jumped up, fastened the folding fan to his waist, and began to jump on the railing, swinging his sleeves with a crackling sound. He muttered something like a law, talked nonsense, and then lost his temper in his Dantian.

Take the effort.

Bai Xuan rolled his eyes.

He took out a small and exquisite purple sand teapot from his sleeve and sipped the tea, which was wolfberry tea.

Earlier, when Nuan Shu returned to the mountain, he saw Bai Xuan in the pavilion setting up a stall and keeping accounts, and told him some about the teapot and the rules of drinking tea.

Only then did Bai Xuan realize that Uncle Bai had been tricked by Uncle Chen.

Xiaomi Li waited for a while, but still couldn't see the shadow of the ferry, so she said softly: "Jingqingjingqing, your magic seems not very effective."

Liu Chongrun took a walk around Baofengzhai today and stopped by the ferry to relax. By chance, he saw Xiao Mili and his party.

The little girl in black's outfit is really... eye-catching.

Seeing Liu Chongrun's figure, Xiao Mili immediately ran over, stood still, straightened his back, raised his head, and said three titles in one breath, "I've seen Island Master Liu, Manager Liu, and Sister Liu!"

Island Master Liu is a monk, Manager Liu is a close friend of the two families, and Sister Liu is a personal friend.

Chen Lingjun and Bai Xuan clasped their fists in the distance, which was considered as a greeting.

Anyway, Island Master Liu is recognized as half of his own family, so being polite would be pretentious.

Liu Chongrun nodded to the two, then smiled and stretched his hand towards Xiao Mili's head.

Xiaomi Li quickly shrank her neck and lowered her head, saying in a panic: "I can't touch it, I'm already so much shorter than Pei Qian."

Liu Chongrun took back his hand and asked with a smile: "Waiting for someone?"

Xiao Mili looked around and whispered in a low voice: "We are waiting for the good mountain master and his wife."

Moreover, the owner of the good mountain said in the letter that he brought two people home this time, but unfortunately the letter did not say who they were.

Of course Xiaomi Li had to rush over so that he could confirm immediately whether there was a short winter melon girl.

Liu Chongrun nodded, "I have to go back to Aoyubei first without delaying you and the others."

Xiao Mili said: "Master Liu, if you have time to go back, I will go to your mountaintop as a guest."

Liu Chongrun was a little strange, why he suddenly became bolder. For many years, this cute little water monster, who was the right protector of Luopo Mountain, had been staying at Luopo Mountain. At most, he worked as a concierge at the gate of the mountain and never went out.

Coming to Niujiao Mountain like today is actually quite exceptional.

However, Liu Chongrun still smiled and agreed.

She rode the wind and left the ferry.

The dragon boat that was salvaged together with the Water Palace was leased by Luopo Mountain to the Dali border army for free. When the dragon boat ferry was returned by the imperial court, it was in such dilapidated condition that the staggering repair cost was even higher than the original price.

The value of the dragon boat's "turning ink" itself. When the two parties handed over the ferry, Zhu Lian on the Luopo Mountain side did not say a word. Later, the dragon boat was transferred to Ouhua Paradise by Cui Dongshan and was repaired as new.

Liu Chongrun has been the steward of Longzhou Fanmo for a long time, and he never thought that she would take the temporary position for many years.

Some of the disciples' so-called experience in going out was actually left on the ferry, but the people at Luopo Mountain did things kindly and received dividends every year.

To reciprocate the favor, Luopo Mountain took the initiative to allocate two feng shui treasure lands with strong water transport in the Lotus Root Land, which was already the bottleneck of the first-class blessed land, so that the five direct female nuns from the Zhuchai Island Patriarch Hall could practice or retreat there, and their respective Looking for opportunities to break through. One place is the Nanxun Water Palace, a part of the Luo Mountain given by Shen Lin, Lord Jidu Lingyuan of Luzhou in Beiju, and a stream donated by Li Yuan, the Marquis of Longting.

After Zhuchai Island moved out of Shujian Lake in the early years, it occupied a hilltop here. Although it was leased from Luolu Mountain, it was indeed a bit suspicious of relying on others. Fortunately, it was destined to be peaceful and peaceful. The landscape was full of aura and there were no neighbors on the mountains. There are no intrigues and disputes among the sect, and there is no messy bullying. The sect's money-making is also very stable. It only needs to share the accounts with Luoluoshan. The female nuns of Zhuchai Island only need to practice Taoism with peace of mind. So the only thing that Liu Chongrun needs to pay attention to is, There is only one thing, and that is to be careful of the former "Yu Mi" and later Mi Yu.

Yu Mi and Nuan Shu came to Zhaoyubei to pay New Year greetings and give gifts. In addition, he had taken several dragon boat ferries before.

The most irritating thing is not these, but that Yu Mi, who has been deliberately alienating the female cultivators of Zhuchai Island. But the problem is that Yu Mi has no intention, but Liu Chongrun's direct disciples and secondary disciples do, and they are all worried about Yu Mi. of.

Especially when Mi Yu's true identity came to light, he turned out to be the swordsman who shone brightly on the battlefield of Old Dragon City and killed many enemies. And most importantly, Mi Yu actually came from the world-famous Great Wall of Sword Qi. !

As time goes by, there are more and more nymphomaniacs on Zhuchai Island. Whenever Mi Dajianxian is mentioned, his eyes light up. He always looks for opportunities to visit Luopo Mountain, which makes Liu Chongrun very angry.

In this way, how can they not do their best when working on the dragon boat ferry?

Xiaomi Li continued to return to the railing, eagerly waiting for the ferry.

Suddenly I saw a ferry on the horizon as small as a mustard seed.

Xiaomi Li's face was full of surprise, and he shouted happily: "The scenery is clear, the scenery is clear, it's effective, it's effective!"

In fact, how long has it been since Chen Lingjun performed his magic?

Chen Lingjun was sitting on the railing, but he didn't feel guilty and laughed.

Chen Ping'an used his water cloud body and took the lead to leave the ferry. In an instant, he came to the ferry railing, stretched out his hand to hold the boy in green's head, and asked with a smile: "What's so funny?"

Chen Lingjun wiped his face and said, "The master is finally home. I almost cried with joy."

Bai Xuan, who had a big bump on his forehead, continued to roll his eyes.

Thinking of a serious matter, Bai Xuan jumped off the railing and started to complain. It was not easy to address Master Yinguan outside, so he used the title of Mountain Master, "Mountain Master, if you don't come here, we will be abducted." It's clean. Mountain Master, you don't know that Yu Lao Sword Cultivator went too far. He visited the Sword Worship Platform every day and gave us nine of us a hard time, euphemistically speaking, giving him pointers on swordsmanship, especially looking at me. The look in his eyes, let alone a new disciple, is simply his long-lost biological son. It makes me hairy. Mountain Master, to be honest, it’s not that I gossip about people behind their backs. It’s just because of my little deeds. , you really can’t be my master.”

Chen Ping'an laughed angrily and said: "You have the best vision, do you have a high level?"

Bai Xuan crossed his arms and said, "I have one thing to say. It's true. I'm far inferior to the Mountain Master, but more than enough to Fatty Cheng and the others. In three to five years, let alone that girl from King Sun Chun, I will be able to challenge him." seven."

When Bai Xuan saw Ning Yao, he rubbed his eyes and saw that he was right, it was really Ning Yao!

Bai Xuan immediately shut up.

Yao Xiaoyan and Nalan Yudou, these two girls are probably going crazy.

Especially that King Sun Chun, who usually looks dead-eyed and paralyzed when he sees everyone, but when he sees Ning Yao, he is not allowed to kowtow to recognize his master on the spot?

Bai Xuan knew that this girl, King Sun Chun, was very proud. Even though she was taken to Luopo Mountain by Lord Yin Guan, she still thought about going to the colorful world and Feisheng City. She only learned swordsmanship from Ning Yao, otherwise she would like to get into trouble with others.

Girl, I would rather not have a preacher or a teacher.

Alas, I am still young and ignorant.

Is Ning Yao the kind of person who accepts apprentices at will?

Besides, who is Ning Jianxian? She is the Taoist companion of our Lord Yin Guan.

If you have a good relationship with Lord Yin Guan, can master Ning Jianxian escape?

After all, it's just a little girl who is not smart.

After the ferry docked, Ning Yao and the others came here.

The Xianwei looked around, wondering where Master Cao's mountaintop was.

"Mrs. Mountain Lord!"

Millet is a little shy and wants to give melon seeds, but is a bit unable to do so.

Calling Sister Ning was not successful. Pei Qian found out and had to keep a small ledger.

Ning Yao smiled and stretched out his hand.

The millet grains bloomed happily, and he quickly handed out a handful of melon seeds.

Xiao Mo took out a heavy cotton bag from his sleeve, which was filled with golden melon seeds.

Xiao Mo knelt down and said with a smile: "My name is Xiao Mo, and I am the young master's retainer. This is a greeting gift. It's too light. Please don't despise it, right guardian."

Zhou Mili was stunned on the spot, frowning with two sparse and yellowish brows, giving gifts as soon as they met?

She quickly raised her head and looked at the Good Man Mountain Master.

Chen Pingan smiled and nodded, "Just accept it, no need to be polite to Xiao Mo, he is just a good boy."

Then Chen Pingan whispered: "It's a bag of golden melon seeds, which are golden melon seeds made of gold."

What? Golden melon seeds? Is this a courtesy?

Courtesy is not light, but affection is as heavy as a mountain!

How could such a good man like Mr. Xiaomo suddenly appear in the world?

Is Mr. Xiaomo a prophet? How do you know that you want a bag of golden melon seeds in your dream?!

The little girl in black held the golden pole and the green bamboo stick in her arms, bowed and thanked her somewhat comically, and then took the bag with both hands. Xiaomi Li bent down and laughed and said: "Mr. Xiaomo, the bag is so scary, I almost took it."

I couldn’t hold it and dropped it to the ground.”

Xiao Mo smiled and narrowed his eyes with a warm expression. He waited until Xiao Mi Li took the bag and then slowly stood up.

Chen Pingan touched the head of the millet grains and said, "Put it away quickly."

Xiaomi Li nodded vigorously and finally put the bag into his beloved cotton satchel.

Xiaomo also gave Chen Lingjun and Bai Xuan a robe.

Chen Lingjun nodded, took the robe, and thanked him, thinking that this brother Xiao Mo was more enlightened.

Bai Xuanyi painted a gourd and painted a ladle. From this moment on, Xiao Mo was a candidate to chop off the chicken head and burn it with yellow paper.

As a result, the two of them noticed that Chen Ping'an was looking at him, and they immediately hugged Xiao Mo, whom they had become familiar with at first sight, and they became brothers from then on.

Xiao Mili looked at the young Taoist priest and blinked. She was waiting for the introduction by the good mountain master.

Chen Pingan introduced with a smile: "Xianwei, the immortal of immortals, the captain of the captain. In the future, he will practice Taoism in our mountains, so he can be regarded as a guest."

I wanted to say that Xianwei is not a real Taoist priest.

But Chen Ping'an instantly realized that this sentence was inappropriate.

He is not a real "Taoist", who is?

Chen Lingjun laughed and said: "Taoist Master Xianwei, what a coincidence, I know many Taoist friends."

Dao Ancestor! Old Temple Master! Brother Jia from Qilong Lane, and... that Zhang Shanfeng from Paidi Peak!

When you have your master by your side, you will speak forcefully. You are a guest, no matter where you come from.

Lieutenant Xian was a little reserved and forced a slightly stiff smile.

I always feel that it's okay for these two kids to look old-fashioned, but their brains are a little... unclear.

Look.

Xiao Mili was a conscientious ear-reporter. He chattered and began to tell Chen Ping'an some interesting stories about Longzhou recently. For example, over at Kunlu Mountain, I heard that there was a Taoist who liked to watch deer in the shade of pines. His words were mysterious.

What kind of person goes up to the Yang Palace with a bun and a green lantern, and comes back to Zhenyuan with white hair? And what kind of person is so poor that there is no moon this year, and he stays in this mountain without thinking of returning.

Chen Pingan smiled and didn't take it seriously because he roughly knew the other party's bottom line. In fact, Chen Pingan knew all the Taoists in the mountains to the west.

It seems that once Luopo Mountain became famous, many otherworldly experts with immortality and Taoism suddenly appeared on the nearby mountains.

Xiao Mili also said that the current Ah Ma is amazing. He has become the handler near Qilong Lane, beating the white goose and the rooster together. Now the New Year's Eve shop has a bunch of chicken feather shuttlecocks and goose feather dusters out of thin air.

.

Chen Pingan did not go directly to Luopo Mountain, but instead offered a talisman boat and planned to go to the Sword Worship Platform first.

The old sword cultivator Yu Yue took the alias Yu Xuanxuan, and now he is a registered worshiper in Luolu Mountain. The old sword cultivator chose two sword immortal embryos, He Xiangting and Yu Qingzhang.

Moreover, these two children themselves also intend to leave Luopo Mountain and follow Zi Yuewai to practice.

In fact, Yu Yue was very surprised by this, because the old sword cultivator really couldn't understand why they let Lord Yin Guan not recognize the master. Even if he recognized a master, it would be better than finding a master like himself, right?

It's just a pie in the sky, and you can't just push it away. Moreover, Yu Yue has some confidence. He is at least in the Jade Pu realm. If he really wants to accept a disciple, he really won't waste the great qualifications of the two sword immortals.

, Yu Yue Dinghui preached carefully and taught all the swordsmanship with all his money.

Today, in a thatched hut at the Sword Worship Platform, the old sword cultivator looked at the two children sitting at the table, caressed his beard and said with a smile: "Once the master-disciple status between the three of us is established, whether we succeed or not in the end depends on Chen."

What the mountain master wants, he needs to nod. Secondly, even if there is no problem with Shanzhu Chen, before we leave Luopo Mountain, we have to say hello before leaving. This is etiquette. I believe that regardless of the Great Wall of Sword Qi and Haoran Tianxia

The local customs and customs are different, but the truth is the same after all. Xiangting, Qingzhang, what do you think?"

By the time we got to Puhe, we had completely regained our composure.

Miyu crossed his arms across his chest and leaned against the door, watching with cold eyes.

Among the nine Sword Immortal embryos that Mr. Yin Guan brought back from the Great Wall of Sword Qi, the two with the best sword-practicing qualifications, good bones, and temperaments were the unsmiling little girl Sun Chunwang, and Pei Qian who had just arrived at Luopo Mountain.

Bai Xuan who was asked about boxing twice.

Then there is Yu Qingzhang.

As for the other children, if we don't talk about the rank and level of flying swords, but only their talent and temperament in sword practice, they are actually about the same.

Yao Xiaoyan is probably the worst one, her temper is too soft, but she can't match the fact that the little girl has many flying swords, three in total.

However, in Mi Yu's opinion, Yao Xiaoyan is really lucky, and not just average.

The reason is very simple. If it were on the Sword Qi Great Wall, in another dozen or at most twenty years, Yao Xiaoyan would definitely need to go out of the city to fight.

Mi Yu can be sure that a swordsman like Yao Xiaoyan will die if he goes to the battlefield. Either she will die, or the guardian will die due to her involvement.

With Yao Xiaoyan's character, even if she was lucky enough to leave the battlefield alive once or twice at most, her sword heart would have a big problem.

But in Haoran Tianxia, ​​Yao Xiaoyan can definitely follow the steps, practice steadily, become the middle fifth realm, and then become an earthly immortal. At worst, she can wait until she reaches the Nascent Soul realm before traveling down the mountain.

Mi Yu was actually quite resentful at the moment.

Originally, Cui Dongshan had made arrangements for these children, but he didn't expect that an old swordsman from Liuxiazhou in the Jade Pu Realm would fall from the sky.

For example, Yu Qingzhang and Cui Dongshan once planned to accept him as one of his direct descendants. He Xiangting, who likes to read, will be handed over to Master Zhong to recruit his disciples. Although Zhong Qiu is not a swordsman, who said that only swordsmen can teach?

Just because the old swordsman intervened and took away Yu Qingzhang and He Xiangting, Cui Dongshan's long-term plan was completely disrupted.

If it weren't for the fact that Yuyue was worshiped by his family, no matter who he met in Luolu Mountain, he would always be kind and gentle, and would not hit the smiling person, otherwise Mi Yu would definitely have to spar with this old swordsman.

Among them, Sui Sui's choice was more unexpected. He took the initiative to choose Cheng Chaolu, a fat man who liked to cook. He became the first to become a pair of master and apprentice. He only waited for the mountain master to return to his hometown and add a stroke to the genealogy of the ancestral hall.

Cheng Chaolu was confused at that time and didn't know why Sui Youyou wanted to accept him as his direct heir. As a result, the future master spoke of his child's heart in just one sentence.

"You're not old, and you can punch hard enough. You can practice swordsmanship and martial arts in the future."

Cheng Chaolu suddenly felt that he had to recognize this master.

There is no point in praising him for anything. Anyway, what a piece of material you are, you will get no points? But praising him for his talent in martial arts, how can you not be happy?

So Cheng Chaolu has now left the Sword Worship Platform and followed Sui You on the Feng Yuan ferry to Tongyezhou.

After that, Zhang Lv Changsheng fell in love with Nalan Yudou, a little money-lover, and they both fell in love with each other very well.

Cui Dongshan deliberately asked Mi Yu to accept He Gu as his direct disciple, but as a result, Mi Dajianxian and this little kid didn't like each other.

However, it is still a bit better than Cui Wei and Yu Xiehui, Cui Dongshan's "appointed" future masters and disciples. This is because Yu Xiehui is unwilling to leave with Cui Wei even if he is dead.

In fact, as a Nascent Soul sword cultivator, Cui Wei's swordsmanship is not bad. Isn't Sui Zuoyue also a Nascent Soul? Moreover, Cui Wei's swordsmanship is complex, his killing power is not weak, and he is also good at hiding.

But Yu Xiehui looked down on this swordsman from his hometown who ran away from the battlefield and asked me to learn the art from him? He couldn't afford to disgrace this person.

A group of people came to the sword worship platform. Chen Pingan put away the talisman boat, cupped his hands and fists towards Yu Yue, and said apologetically: "I have kept Yu Yue waiting for a long time."

Long wait?

Yu Yue was a little confused, it seemed that he had only a few days of hard work, but the old swordsman still smiled and clasped his fists in return and said: "No, this mountain is so beautiful, I'm a little reluctant to leave."

Chen Pingan realized later that he had made a mistake.

In fact, these days, too many things happened, and I had this illusion.

Mi Yu said with a smile: "If you don't want to leave, just stay. Who dares to leave before the old swordsman? See if I agree or not?"

Yu Yue was a little embarrassed.

Despite the fact that Mi Da Sword Immortal's prestige among the local sword cultivators in the Great Wall of Sword Qi... is not particularly high.

But some foreign swordsmen actually suffered a lot at the hands of Mi Yu.

Among them is Yu Yue's old friend Pu He. Otherwise, Pu He, who is full of shit and has a bad temper, is willing to say a few nice words to Mi Yu at the wine table, such as "Mi Yu is very lethal"? Yu Yue

Although I don’t know the specific details, just thinking about it with my buttocks, I know that Mr. Pu must have been chopped by Mi Yu.

Lord Yin Guan has a squinting look at the Great Sword Immortal.

Mi Yu immediately smiled at Yue Xipi and said: "If you don't say a few words to me as a family, don't worry about it."

Yu Yue said with a smile: "It's not that the whole family doesn't come into the same house, Mi Jianxian is overly worried."

Miyu cursed endlessly, you are the sword immortal, and your whole family is the sword immortal.

It's not that Mi Yu really likes to keep grudges and keep accounts. In fact, this Yu Yue always calls him "Sword Fairy" every time we meet, and I can't stand him for more than a day or two.

In my hometown, there are not many people who deserve the title of Sword Immortal, and most of them, like Mi Hu and Yue Qing, don't like to be called Sword Immortal. It's better to call them by their first names.

As long as you can bear the beating and stand up to the beating, if you see Chen Xi on the road, call him "Old Chen", or call him "Dong San Geng, old man Dong", or even "Xiao Dong", there will be no problem.

Yu Yue told Chen Pingan that he planned to accept Yu Qingzhang and He Xiangting as his direct heirs.

Chen Pingan smiled and nodded. He was about to say that since they were willing, he had no objections.

But Ning Yao looked at the two children and asked: "The reason."

The two children's faces were pale, their lips were trembling, and they were speechless, unable to speak a word.

Miyu sighed.

It was not good to meet anyone, but they met Ning Yao. It was time for these two children to feel guilty and timid.

Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment, but still did not disturb the conversation between Ning Yao and his fellow swordsman.

Except for the chubby Cheng Chaolu who had already gone to Tongyezhou, the other eight children were all present. As Bai Xuan expected, the two girls Nalan Yuzhao and Yao Xiaoyan were already going crazy.

Especially King Sun Chun, when he saw Ning Yao, the little girl with no expression or even eyes turned red for the first time. She clenched her hands into fists and wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to speak.

When these children saw Ning Yao, it was like... returning to their hometown.

No matter how much Chen Ping'an is regarded as a fellow countryman, no matter how much he is the last hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall, compared with Ning Yao, he is different after all. So even if it is the same words, the same reason, Ning Yao said it, and it is different from Ning Yao.

For Chen Ping'an, it's a different story.

Chen Pingan coughed and walked away with Yu Yue and others.

The Xianwei sighed, feeling very sad. Good guy, does Master Chen have such a big mountain?

Master Cao Xian only has a bunch of little kids under his command?

There is a high probability that I boarded a pirate ship by mistake.

Ning Yao never liked beating around the bush, so he quickly finished chatting with the children, one by one.

This was the first time that Chen Ping'an saw a group of children with different temperaments who were all the same, well-behaved and obedient.

The final result is that Lao Jianxiu Yuyue will soon leave Luopo Mountain and travel across continents with his two children who have become master and apprentice.

King Sun Chun became Ning Yao's anonymous disciple, but he needed to stay in Haoran Tianxia to practice and would not follow Ning Yao to Feisheng City.

The old man Bai Xuan finally became honest today and told Lord Yin Guan that he would not go to Xingting to set up a stall in the near future and would have to stay at the Sword Worship Platform and practice well.

Chen Pingan then took her to the Jise Peak Ancestral Hall to offer incense.

Xiaomo and Xianwei have not yet been officially included in the genealogy, so let's forget it today.

Xianwei will not serve as a worshiper like Xiaomo, but will be an unnamed guest of Luopo Mountain.

After all, no matter how courageous Chen Pingan was, he would not dare to serve as the evangelist of Xianwei.

If you really dare to act like this, you will probably be punished by God and struck by lightning.

There is a huge difference between the unintentional actions of ordinary people and the intentional actions of Taoists.

The key to the Ancestral Master Hall is over there at Xiao Nuanshu.

A group of people were waiting outside the door. Chen Lingjun had already gone to spread the news.

Zhu Lian and Xiao Nuanshu came to Jise Peak together.

After the girl in pink skirt stopped, she smiled brightly and gave a blessing to the group of people.

Chen Pingan smiled and nodded.

Previously, I bought some Yungen Stones with Cai Jinjian at the Green Hinoki Peak in Yunxia Mountain. I will then refine the mountain root dragon veins placed on Caiyun Peak and Xiancao Mountain. Then I will ask Xiao Nuanshu which mountain top I want to choose.

Help her choose a place to open her mansion as a place of cultivation. It doesn’t matter if Xiao Nuanshu is not in the Golden Core realm. Let’s go back to the ancestral hall to discuss the matter and see who dares to have any objections.

After offering incense to the three hanging portraits in the Patriarch Hall, Chen Pingan and Ning Yao walked out of the door, and Xiao Nuanshu locked the door skillfully.

The Xianwei was relieved. Fortunately, Shanzhu Chen had another mountain. The legendary Ancestral Hall on the mountain looked very majestic.

Chen Ping'an and Zhu Lian, the poor butler of the mountain, walked side by side and chatted about things.

In fact, when Cui Dongshan takes the initiative to ask to be the first sect leader of the lower sect, then all the candidates for the lower sect of Luo Luo Shan will be finalized.

Mr. Zhan temporarily worked as a bookkeeper in Xia Zong, managing the money bag and responsible for the treasury's revenue and expenditure.

To be honest, Zhong Qiu, as the national master of Nanyuan Kingdom, was praised by the world as "a literary saint and a martial master" in the past, and any position he held on the mountain was not excessive.

Cui Wei, a swordsman, is temporarily appointed as the head of the lower sect.

As for the chief worshiper of the next sect, the second chief worshiper of Luopo Mountain, Mi Da Jianxian, will be held. The position can be regarded as equal.

Sui Youyou doesn't have any title or status, so even if he is given, she probably won't appreciate it.

On the other side of Huimeng Mountain, the remnant of the old Zhuying dynasty, whose pseudonym was Shao Poxian, was the remnant of the ruined country. His Highness, Crown Prince Zhuying, who had the surname of Dugu, was accompanied by a maid, Menglong.

There is also Chun Shui, whose pseudonym is Shi Qiu. She and her sister Qiu Shi were both female nuns at Luzhou Jiao Mountain in Beiju.

The three of them were also taken to Tongyezhou by Cui Dongshan.

In addition, it seems that Lu Baixiang's two direct disciples will also become disciples of the next sect in the future.

Chen Pingan joked: "Cui Dongshan, the sect leader of the lower sect, is he just poaching the wall with a hoe like our upper sect Luoposhan?"

Zhu Lian smiled and said, "I didn't think it really meant what the young master said when I said that."

Chen Ping'an picked up Cao Jun for nothing on the Great Wall of Sword Qi. He is a Yuanying realm swordsman. There is a high possibility that Cao Jun will break through.

This Cao Jun was also a wonderful man. He no longer wanted to be the chief priest, so he took the initiative to ask for the title of the last priest of the Luo Shanxia Sect.

Zhu Lian said: "Pei Qian is now at Xinxiang Temple in Fudi, and I didn't call her over."

Chen Pingan nodded.

After going to the accounting office, Chen Pingan told Wei Wenlong that he needed to embezzle one hundred grain rain coins from the treasury.

I want to lend it to Lin Shouyi.

Forget it, it’s a gift.

It's a crapshoot to borrow, and it's not a good idea to spend the money, so why don't you just give it away.

There are not many people who can steal money from Chen Pingan.

Wei Wenlong smiled and said that there is now a lot of Guyu money lying in the account books, so the mountain owner does not have to worry about being stretched.

Zhu Lian smiled and said: "You can borrow money, and you must borrow it. It's just that Lin Shouyi can be a guest minister in Xia Zong."

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "It's feasible."

The affairs of the Luopo Mountain spy and Mirror Flowers, Water Moon will be temporarily handed over to Zhu Lian and Chen Lingjun.

Then there is the Baofeng Zhai in Niujiaodu, which has been short of suitable candidates. Previously, Chen Ping'an went to Qingfufang to find Mr. Hong, trying to poach him again and again, but unfortunately to no avail.

Therefore, for the time being, we can only let the Master Changshou take charge of the overall situation, and then leave it to the female nuns of Zhuchai Island to help with specific matters.

Nowadays, Luopo Mountain owns two ferries. The temporary manager of Dragon Boat Fanmo is Liu Chongrun, the owner of Zhuchai Island, who rented the chelicerae back from Luopo Mountain. The two parties exchanged courtesy and got along well over the years.

As for the Feng Yuan of the cross-continental ferry, Chen Ping'an planned to let Chang Ming serve as the steward. The second-in-command who is really responsible for trivial matters such as dealing with people and things could be the old Taoist priest Jia Sheng, and let Mi Yu take charge of the ferry when he is free. Then the ferry

Feng Yuan has everything he needs.

Chen Ping'an suddenly remembered something. In Toutiao City on the night boat, he got an ancient bow named "Yunmeng Changsong" from the bearded guest Baofengzhai under the pseudonym Zhang San. It was a genuine item.

, the grade has not yet been determined, Chen Pingan always feels that this treasure is a bit hot to handle.

The founders of the three religions once visited the town together.

Somehow, the old Taoist temple master drank tea at the mountain gate and gave away the extremely rare Taoist painting.

At that time, after being refined by Cui Dongshan, visions arose: a mountain was filled with purple energy, there was no sun on the top of the mountains, and there was a moon among thousands of trees, forming a world of its own, with the sun and the moon rising and setting.

So much so that even Weibo, the dignified mountain king, cannot freely enter and leave Luopo Mountain within the mountains and rivers under his own jurisdiction. The only flaw is that opening and supporting such a "mountain protection" consumes a lot of immortal money, so Luopo Mountain cannot be used all the time.

The formation was opened immediately, but compared to the preciousness of the Dao map, this small flaw can be completely ignored.

Any sect in the vast world can use it as a mountain-holding treasure.

From what Cui Dongshan said in the letter sent to the capital, it was Xiaomili's great contribution to hospitality.

Chen Ping'an doesn't think this is a joke.

In addition, in the former site of the mountain temple on the top of Luolu Mountain, Cui Dongshan set up a golden thunder pool formation around it, and enshrined a scroll of the Sword Immortal from the Jingjian Pavilion in Daixuan Mountain inside.

In the future, the gate of the ancestor hall of the lower sect will hang on the couplet given by Wu Shuangjiang, which is also of astonishingly high quality.

If you include the twelve flying swords that Chen Ping'an obtained from the Yunwen Dynasty Jade Edition City, and the Taiping Mountain Formation that has always suffered from "a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice", it is simply a seamless attack effect.

Then in the future, the two great landscape formations of Luo Lo Mountain and Xiazong will be considered the ultimate in both offense and defense.

As for this trip to the capital, it was not in vain.

According to Chen Ping'an's previous estimate, the number of fragments of his natal porcelain scattered abroad ranged from six to four.

Now one of them has been recovered from the Empress Dowager Da Li, and as expected, it is hidden in the house next to Chen Ping'an's ancestral house on Nipin Lane.

In addition, the Ma family couple in Xinghua Lane and the Qionglin Sect in Luzhou, Beiju, may have hidden fragments. Chen Pingan would ask clearly, face to face.

Walking towards the bamboo house, Chen Ping'an smiled at Xiaomi Li and said, "I have to go to Xianyou County right away. After returning home, I will take you to Hongzhu Town."

Yang Hua, the water god of Tiefu River, has gone to Dadu in central China to serve as a duke.

It's just that the position of Tiefujiang's new water god is still unresolved.

According to the latest golden and jade genealogy promulgated by Da Li, Tie Fujiang is of the third rank, Xiuhua River Water God is of the fourth rank, Chongdan River Ye Zhuqing and Heyuye River Water God Li Jin are both of the fifth rank.

As for the Longxu River that had long been raised from the Xixi River, Malanhua was also promoted from the River Goddess to the River God. Although his rank was not high, he was supposed to build an ancestral temple and build a golden body. However, according to Cui Dongshan, Old Man Yang gave it to

I made a promise to the old woman in Xinghua Lane, and after thirty years, I can enjoy the incense.

In addition to being the confluence of three rivers, Hongzhu Town actually has five streams. Among them, Lanxi County, located in the upper reaches of the Yuye River, is known as the waist of the six rivers. It is a typical small county with shortcakes, bayberry and

Loquats are very famous, and there is a rain-sheltering fairy cliff near the Orchid River, as well as an underground river that is secretly connected to the Chongdan River.

Chen Ping'an definitely has to visit Yuyejiang Temple and Shuishen Mansion.

Li Qingzhu, the Water Goddess, I definitely want to meet.

Xiaomi Li stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, laughed and said, "It's a small matter, don't be in a hurry."

Putting away his hand, Xiaomi Li tugged on the string of the cross-body cotton satchel. It was heavy and his shoulders were very sore.

There are actually quite a few things, big and small.

Disciples Zhao Shuxia, Zhao Luanluan, Zhang Jiazhen, Fulu monk Jiang Qu...

I will also give Pei Qian a Duobaoge made by myself later.

There is another letter waiting for you to read in the backyard of Yang's pharmacy.

When I return from Qingyuan County, I will teach Pei Qian, the founding disciple, a serious boxing lesson on the second floor of the Bamboo Tower.

I found a market place, a county town in Huangting Kingdom, where I will be a teacher in the school in the future.

Come to the Bamboo House.

Zhu Lian took Xiaomo and Xianwei and sat down at the stone table by the cliff.

Ning Yao followed Chen Pingan into the house.

It is only said that the residence of Chen Ping'an, the owner of the mountain, on the first floor of the bamboo building, has Wu Shuangjiang's "At that time". The seals on both sides of the copybook have dispersed, but there is still a monogram that condenses the Tao rhyme, "The heart is like the world."

Green lotus color".

There are also two copybooks that my husband personally begged from Su Zi and Liu Qi, the flower blooming calligraphy and the begging for drunkenness calligraphy, which also contain Taoist charm and are full of literary talent.

Before I participated in the discussion of the Confucian Temple, I met Lin Qing, a guest of the Qiu family in Yuzhou, Liuxiazhou. They fell in love with each other. The old man gave Chen Pingan a Boyi seal with good materials.

Side note: To the west of the golden sky, where the sun has disappeared, the immortal is drunk and comes from the moon cave. His flying sword is like a rainbow. He touches the Nanchen with his feet to open the earth's veins. He turns over the Beidou and shines at the Tianmen with his palm.

There are four characters at the bottom of the seal: I have seen Qingshan.

Putting the seal on the desk, Chen Ping'an then gently placed the white jade Ganoderma lucidum with a beautiful inscription on the bookshelf.

Chen Pingan took a step back with his hands in his sleeves, stretched out his sleeves, and slightly moved the placement of the white jade Ganoderma lucidum.

Like a swallow carrying mud, like an ant moving house, like having more than enough every year.

After my parents left, I barely managed to hold on to the family business until I was fourteen. Fortunately, after that, things got better every year.

After that, Chen Pingan took Ning Yao, called Xiaomo and Xianwei, and went down the mountain together. He was going to the Caotou Shop and New Year's Shop in Qilong Lane to check the accounts.

Xiaomi Li didn't follow, she had to go patrolling the mountains.

The little girl ran happily while singing, "Stinky tofu is delicious and golden melon seeds are very valuable."

Xianwei had just accumulated some confidence in that mountain, but when he saw these two market shops, he felt helpless again.

Is this the source of wealth for my family? Isn’t it about the same as myself, just earning some hard-earned money every day? That’s all, if it doesn’t work out, I can only rely on myself and return to the old business. On the way here, I saw a few in the town.

The streets are quite expensive, so I looked back to see if I could find some ways to make some money there.

Pei Qian's founding disciple was originally named Zhou Junchen, nicknamed Ah Ma, and nicknamed Little Mute.

Standing on the small bench behind the counter, today for the first time for the first time, this child called Chen Ping'an "grandmaster".

Chen Ping'an couldn't help but muttered a little, and asked with a smile: "Ah Ma, are you planning to borrow money from me?"

Ah Man shook his head and said sternly: "I just hope that Grandmaster will be able to see clearly and take good care of some people who are stealing from others."

A white-haired boy ran over from the backyard and said angrily: "Ah Hao, how often have I eaten cakes without paying for them?! To frame someone up, you have to provide evidence!"

Ah Ma laughed and said, "The ones you ate in front of me were paid for. What about the ones you ate secretly? I'm counting them all."

The white-haired boy's eyes rolled, "Actually, it's the cake that Cui Huahua next door ate secretly. I can't stop her and I can't beat her."

Chen Pingan rubbed his eyebrows.

The white-haired boy stared at the young man with the yellow hat and blue shoes, put his hands on his hips and raised his chin, "What state are you in? Tell me."

I always feel like this guy is more dangerous.

This external demon now named Konghou was actually the real name of Sui Chu Gong, "Tian Tian".

I don't know if it's because of a brain cramp or something, but I actually had the idea of ​​accepting a disciple, and clamored to become a master. After becoming a master, in a few days, I can imitate the Yinguan ancestor and become a master.

He would often be alone in the backyard, jumping around and looking towards the Luolu Mountain, shouting and shouting to go into the mountains to snatch apprentices. One would not be too few, two would not be too many, one would bring tea and the other would bring water...

Besides, they were either trying different ways to swindle some money from Cui Huahua, or they were standing at the door of the shop, holding a toothpick in their mouth and grinning to themselves.

At such a young age, he already has gray hair.

Some elderly neighbors in the neighborhood had kindly advised Shopkeeper Shi in private to take the poor kid to see a doctor as he had some money and couldn't be frugal.

Xiao Mo was actually quite surprised. Inside the shop, there was an alien demon that was probably an ascension level demon?

As for the female ghost wearing a man's immortal clothes, it is not a strange thing.

Xiao Mo smiled and replied: "Everything about realm is false."

A young girl hurriedly came from the Caotou shop. She and Chen Ping'an bowed respectfully and said ten thousand blessings, and timidly said: "My slave Cui Huahua, I have met the master of the mountain."

Chen Ping'an smiled and nodded, but in reality it was extremely awkward.

It was Tian Wan from Zhengyang Mountain, Zou Zi's junior sister, who was intercepted by Cui Dongshan and Jiang Shangzhen. As a result, Cui Dongshan stripped out his soul, twisted it into a wick, and put it into a "flower vessel".

He met Cui Peanut, a girl who now works as a handyman in Qilong Lane. She is now Cui Dongshan’s nominal sister.

And Cui Dongshan also got a very high-grade but unnamed secret cave from Tian Wan. Although it is not among the seventy-two small caves, according to Tian Wan, the natural materials and treasures inside are as well as the great aura.

Luck can support the Qi refining cultivation of an Ascension Realm monk.

The implication is that an Earth Immortal, as long as his cultivation path goes smoothly, he can always stay in this isolated cave and reach the ascension realm without asking for any external objects.

Among them is the Jiangque Immortal Mansion, which is both mysterious and mysterious, with its own cave. There is also a stream called Danxi, with a gloomy water quality and flowing water like jade, which is most suitable for making elixirs. In addition, there is a Chisong Mountain with Poria, Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, etc., spiritual trees and fairy flowers,

The quantity is extremely large.

It's like a natural treasury at your fingertips.

Since this cave was brought back by Cui Dongshan, the leader of the lower sect, it must be placed in the lower sect of Tongyezhou, both emotionally and logically.

After all, Shangzong Luopo Mountain already has a first-class blessed land, and the lotus root blessed land that has reached the bottleneck, plus the Suolongjing, belongs to the cave and heaven, and the blessed land is connected, not to mention that there is also the one from Zhu Lianguai.

Fox country.

But the piece of fat that Cui Dongshan really cares about is the extremely famous Cicada Cave.

It's a pity that Tian Wan didn't lie and it wasn't her fault.

Of course, just because it's not with her doesn't mean that she doesn't know the whereabouts of this cave.

Presumably with Cui Dongshan's temper, he will definitely not let it go.

This is because this ancient cave is one of the most important sites in ancient Shu. It is said that there were many ancient sword immortals who escaped from the cicadas and ascended to the sky. During the day, the immortals disappeared, and their immortal hearts were detached, leaving behind skins like cicadas, which are extremely precious.

Chen Pingan asked Xiaomo and Xianwei to stay at the shop and return to the mountain together later.

He took Ning Yao up the steps of Qilong Lane and reached the top of the steps. Chen Pingan turned around and looked at it.

Then we walked all the way to Mud Bottle Alley, passing by Xinghua Alley.

Zouzi's stall back then was located here.

A drunken and blind old Taoist priest returned to Qilong Lane. He held a happy event for his neighbors. He drank a lot of wine and confiscated the red envelopes. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. He has to collect money himself. He is not particular and is not immortal enough.

bone.

When Old Immortal Jia heard that Master Chen and his wife had just left Qilong Lane, the old Taoist stamped his feet, beat his chest, and felt regretful.

After all, he is an old immortal in the Dragon Gate Realm. Although Jia Sheng is blind, but with a little movement of Qi, his vision is actually as unobstructed as ordinary people. I heard that Xiao Mo is a new offering from the mountain, and that he can tell at a glance that he is a fake Taoist priest.

Xianwei, who was a guest, immediately took the two of them to drink in his shop, and the white-haired boy followed him to eat and drink. After drinking a pass of wine, the dishes of food and wine were served without stopping, and Xianwei was

They all drank until they had runny noses and tears. Their faces were all red. They held the bowl in one hand, and held hands with the old Taoist priest on the table with the other hand, shaking vigorously. Everything was lost in the wine without saying a word.

This old immortal Jia, who has also been in the world and knows the bitterness best, is really a confidant.

Even if anyone tries to drive him away, he will not be able to leave.

As for Chen Lingjun, he had just taught Brother Xiaomo how to box, and the two of them were making wild gestures there.

Chen Ping'an took Ning Yao towards Mubo Alley.

Once a second lower sect is established, Luopo Mountain will be promoted to the "authentic sect" of the world, and the lower sect will be promoted to the upper sect.

There are only a handful of "authentic" immortal families in the world.

Like Haoran, there are only two in the world.

When he reached the familiar alley, Chen Ping'an stopped at the door of his ancestral home and glanced at the door of Song Jixin's courtyard next door, not in a hurry to retrieve the shards of his life porcelain.

Shifting his gaze again, Chen Pingan glanced at the house next to him. It seemed that no one had lived in it since he could remember.

Ning Yao also glanced at the master-servant house next door, and remembered that he seemed to have seen a pretentious short winter melon woman. If she didn't stand on tiptoes, only half of her head would be exposed from the wall.

Chen Ping'an opened the courtyard door and the house door. The courtyard and house were all clean, with Spring Festival couplets and the word "Fu" posted on the doors.

Chen Pingan entered the room, lay on the table, and rested his chin on his arm.

Ning Yao asked: "What's wrong?"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "If you marry a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"

Ning Yao held his cheek.

I haven't been here for a long time.

Chen Pingan sat for a moment and then stood up.

Ning Yao knew where to go.

They walked out of the alley together and crossed the stone arch bridge over the Longxu River. Chen Pingan and Ning Yao walked on the country road together.

Arrive at the grave.

Chen Ping'an handed Ning Yao three sticks of incense, and he held three sticks to offer incense together.

Then Chen Ping'an squatted down and began to add soil to the grave.

Ning Yao squatted aside, took out a small bag, and asked softly: "I brought it from Colorful World, is it suitable?"

Chen Pingan turned around and said with a smile: "It's appropriate, why isn't it appropriate?"

Ning Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

He took the bag, poured out the soil inside, patted it gently for a few minutes, and tamped the grave slightly.

Chen Ping'an's eyes were red and his voice was hoarse. He just called out "Father" and "Mother" twice, but he seemed unable to speak. He could only move his lips slightly and murmured in a low voice.

It seems that it was at the age of fourteen that the boy in straw sandals officially went away for the first time.

Start traveling far away from home.

But Chen Ping'an never told anyone, not even Ning Yao or Liu Xianyang.

In fact, it was the same road we walked on when we came. With the help of neighbors, a skinny boy in straw sandals walked in front of the coffin.

That road, from Mud Bottle Lane to here, is the farthest journey Chen Pingan has taken in his life.

Maybe it's because today's visit to the grave means that with her around, he will definitely marry his beloved woman, Ning Yao.

Chen Ping'an took out another jug ​​of wine, sprinkled it on the grave, and then gently placed the jug on the mud at his feet.

The man squatted on the ground, covering his face with one hand, his shoulders trembling, and a thin sob leaked out from between his fingers.

It seems that until today, Xiao Ping'an back then and Chen Ping'an today have really gotten married and started a business.

Only then did I really dare to tell my parents that I was living a good life at their graves.
