Chen Ping'an's eyes widened, and he saw the "quiet mind and contentment" seal. After hitting the forehead of the boy in white, it first rebounded, then froze in the air, and finally was pulled back as if it was being pulled by someone. , but the strength of the person pulling the thread over there was a little weak, and the static character print was swaying in the air, high and low, and the speed was not fast.
Chen Pingan followed its trajectory and saw the locust wood sword hovering between himself and Li Baoping. There was a girl in gold clothes about the same height as her little finger, with her limbs spread out. Hiding under the flying sword, holding the wooden sword tightly with his hands and feet, he finally got up. After standing up, the cute girl in gold stood on the sword. It was dizzy, and its steps were like a drunken man. Looking back, it seems that this experience of flying with a sword is not a great one.
The seal of Fang Jing fell on the wooden sword. The seal was a little heavy, and the tail of the sword tilted up under the pressure. The girl in gold slid towards the seal in a hurry.
Li Baoping also didn't notice the existence of the girl in gold before. When she saw it now, she just found it interesting and ran over happily, squatting slightly on her knees and holding the locust sword in both hands. From both ends, staring closely at the little guy who was trying to avoid him, the girl in gold was stunned. She seemed to be very shy by nature. After covering her face with her hands, she put her feet together and jumped straight up. After landing, her figure actually disappeared into the locust tree. The sword just disappeared.
Chen Ping'an didn't know what was going on and didn't want to dwell on this matter. He reminded hoarsely: "Aquarius, throw the wooden sword to me, and you should keep the seal first."
Li Baoping immediately put aside his curiosity and knew that the top priority was to deal with the guy named Cui. After grabbing the seal, he let out a light drink and threw the locust wood sword at his junior uncle.
It's just that the little girl's strength was a little inaccurate, and the Sophora Wood Sword deviated somewhat from where Chen Pingan was standing.
"Turn around!"
Chen Pingan told Li Baoping, then tiptoed, stepped towards the left wellhead of the old water well, and stepped on the edge of the wellhead. After holding the wooden sword accurately, he continued to take a big step forward. After landing, he stabbed the white-clothed boy in the heart with the sword.
At this moment, the locust wood sword in Chen Pingan's hand revealed the upper body of the girl in gold. She was about to cry, full of regret and guilt, and shook her head and waved her hands at him, as if to stop Chen Pingan from killing someone. .
But Chen Pingan was extremely decisive from receiving the sword to drawing the sword. When the girl in gold appeared, the tip of the wooden sword was already pressed against the heart of the boy in white. Chen Pingan had been burning porcelain for many years. Because of the drawing, the control of strength is very delicate. Even if he intends to stop, the movement of Qi in his body, the stretching and contraction of his arm muscles, and the inertial momentum carried by the wooden sword cannot allow Chen Ping'an to change the outcome.
An old scholar carrying a cotton bag suddenly appeared out of thin air, "It's okay, it's okay, I almost got someone tricked."
As the old scholar was at the critical moment, Suddenly, the young Cui Zhang seemed to be grabbed by the neck and pulled back. He stood still instantly. Although he was still in a coma, his waist was straight and he stood as straight asQingsong took advantage of the opportunity to avoid being pierced through the heart by Chen Ping'an's sword.
The old man looked at the straw-shoe boy who quickly retreated. He held the sword in front of him with one hand and protected Li Baoping behind him with the other hand. The young man's way of holding the sword was unfamiliar and awkward, probably like a woodcutter in the mountains. Hold the brush, something is wrong.
The old man sighed with emotion: "It's you."
Chen Ping'an felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy and did not dare to take it lightly. He said softly: "Baoping, wait until the next opportunity." Run, don't worry about me."
Chen Ping'an noticed Li Baoping tugging on his sleeve again and again. He was a little surprised and looked down, "What's wrong?"
The little girl looked stiff, raised her arm, pointed behind Chen Pingan, opened her mouth, and said two words, "There is a ghost."
Being attacked from both sides?
Chen Pingan's heartstrings were tense. When he looked at it, his face was dull. The young man blinked his eyes, then blinked again. After making sure that he had admitted it correctly, he turned his back to the old scholar and the young man in white. He dared to say something clearly to avoid being overheard and harming this fairy sister, but he was really anxious, so the young man hesitated to speak, like an ant on a hot pot.
Li Baoping secretly held the sleeve of his junior uncle, glanced at the friendly old man, and then turned to look at the elusive female ghost.
Compared to the ghost in wedding dress I saw last time, this one tonight is wearing white clothes and white shoes, holding a snow-white... big lotus leaf in her hand? Li Baoping muttered a little, are all the female ghosts in the world so fresh and refined? I remember that my eldest brother had been coerced by me and had to tell many bloody ghost stories. The red skeletons, water ghosts, river monsters and other ghosts and ghosts there would cut open people's livers and eat their flesh and blood. Their appearance and behavior were extremely horrifying. People are scary.
How can she be like the one in front of me? She is even more beautiful than the ghost in wedding dress before.
She is tall, but still gives off a slender and natural beauty. Her head is full of waterfall-like black shiny black hair, which is wrapped from behind to her chest, tied with a golden silk scarf, making her look particularly demure and dignified. .
Li Baoping only felt that the tall woman in front of her was really tall and beautiful, which made her very envious. The little girl quietly stood up on her heels, and soon stepped back to the ground in frustration.
The tall woman seemed to have only Chen Pingan in her eyes.
She smiled and said: "We have to fight with people later. Don't be afraid of that old man. He only knows how to get beaten."
"Don't worry, this sister is not a bad person. We are one of our own!"
Chen Pingan comforted Li Baoping next to him. After looking up again, he finally couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you can't leave the town? If the saints from all sides notice it, What should you do?"
The tall woman shook her wrist, the lotus leaf in her hand swayed gently, her tone was gentle and slow, and she had a reassuring demeanor, "You know there is a place called Lotus. "Dongtian?"
Chen Pingan suddenly remembered Ning Yao and nodded: "There used to beSomeone once told me that it was the place where the Taoist founder went to relax. Although it is only one of the thirty-six small caves, the lotus leaves there, even the smallest lotus leaf, are larger than those in our Lijing City. Be big. "
The woman smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated. If the lotus leaf in my hand showed its true form, it would cover an area of more than ten miles. Of course, the largest lotus there is. Ye, it must be much bigger than Dali Capital. These lotus leaves can obscure the secrets of heaven. To put it simply, even the saints of the three religions and the masters of hundreds of schools cannot detect my movements. "
Seeing Chen Ping'an's face full of doubts, she explained with a smile: "The time we met, I didn't have this good thing in my hand. It was Qi Jingchun who went to the outer world before he left this world. I found the Taoist ancestor and bargained with the old immortal before he helped me get this lotus leaf umbrella. As for what Qi Jingchun paid, I don't know. After all, the natal character "Jing" is taboo within the Taoist tradition. , there are many people who are dissatisfied with this, so it is certain that the cost of Qi Jingchun's trip to the Lotus Cave will not be small when he leaves this vast world. "
Speaking of this, the tall woman's eyes also showed a daze, and she sincerely admired the Confucian disciple.
After Qi Jingchun returned to the human world from the outer world, they had The last chat.
“This lotus leaf? "
"I went to the outer world and picked it from the lotus cave. It can help you leave this place without disturbing the avenue of heaven and earth, and you don't have to worry about the saint's inquiry. ”
“A good thing is a good thing. But aren't you afraid that Chen Ping'an will become unscrupulous with me by his side, and become the kind of person you Qi Jingchun doesn't like? "
"I, Qi Jingchun, know very well what kind of character Chen Pingan is, so I never worry about Chen Pingan bullying others. Even if you protect him from the beginning to the end, I, Qi Jingchun, won't worry. "
" Are you so optimistic about Chen Ping'an? "
"What do you think, he is my junior brother. "
"You and Chen Ping'an are the same generation, and then I recognized him as my master, so what is the implication of your words, Qi Jingchun? "
"Haha, I don't dare! ”
Thinking of this, the tall woman sighed slightly in her heart.
It’s a pity that Qi Jingchun is missing between heaven and earth.
Li Baoping, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, For the first time, he spoke timidly: "Sister, you are so beautiful. "
The tall woman nodded and smiled: "Yes, she is much prettier than you." ”
Not only are they rude, but their words are also hurtful!
The little girl in the red cotton jacket was a little speechless.
Chen Pingan was covered in cold sweat.
Behind Chen Pingan, there was also a reunion.
The old man stared at the young man in white who had woken up. The young man stared back, thinking that I am not afraid of wearing shoes now. What are you afraid of?
The old man looked at the tall woman first, and the latter nodded.
p>The old man then looked at the young man and said angrily: "Aren't you Cui Chan very smart? Now let's review it. Have you ever thought about why I suddenly lost my understanding of those words? The control allowed you to separate from the soul, and it happened to be evenly matched with the Taoist intention contained in the sword energy. They wore each other out, so that you rushed out of the well and had the opportunity to use a killing move on Chen Ping'an. ? Have you ever thought that you might be beaten to death by Chen Pingan in the end, and Chen Pingan would be seriously injured by you at the same time? ”
The young Cui Chan’s face was uncertain, and he curled his lips in anger at the end? , pretending to be indifferent, "It's nothing more than a saint from a certain lineage of Confucianism taking action. There's nothing strange about it. Even Qi Jingchun was willing to walk into that dead end by himself, and ended up helpless. So what if I, Cui Yi, was tricked once?"
The boy became more and more angry as he spoke, and pointed at the poor old scholar, "Old man, how dare you say this? Qi Jingchun, the person you placed the most hope on, is dead, and the idiot Ma Zhan, who is the least determined, is also dead, and That person named Zuo simply disappeared. I, Cui Chan, have fallen like this. In the final analysis, it’s not because of you? You are the one who writes the best articles in the world, has the most profound intentions, and has helped the world for the longest time, okay? , listen up, this is Yasheng, the third highest person in the Confucian Temple. He advocates that the people should be valued before the emperor, and the country should be the second best! You are awesome, but you want to say that human nature is good. Well, you said that human nature is evil! Damn it, why did Yasheng provoke you?"
The young man stomped his feet in anger. This habitual action is actually the same as that of Lao Xiucai, and his fingers are almost the same. He was about to point at the old man's nose, "What's even more outrageous is that the young saint is not much older than you. He may still be in the world and live a good life. Old man, why are you so stubborn? You caught the holy saint. Master or Master Li, go and start a fight. Maybe Ya Sheng will help you, right? Gently wipe the saliva that the young man sprayed on his face.
My family fights in the ring and sings the opposite, but if it is a small family, behind closed doors, quarreling and red faces are nothing at all.
You must know that there is a minor sage and a literary sage. This "three-fourth controversy" that shocked the entire Confucian sect and all the academies is too turbulent. The two great saints, Especially since the first two people in the Confucian Temple have long since passed away, it can almost be said that they represent the entire Confucian school, the Confucian school that sets the rules for a vast world. Although there are no signs of falling apart, the heads of the next-door neighbors know little things and have great insights. How can they not enjoy themselves secretly?
Afterwards, an extremely hidden bet emerged within Confucianism. Losers are willing to admit defeat and imprison themselves in the forest of merit.
The old scholar lost, so he stayed there to wait for death, allowing the statue of himself in the Confucian Temple to move again and again, and finally to pieces.
But when the most proud disciple went to another continent to fight against the will of heaven and died, the old scholar had no choice but to break his oath.I made an agreement with all saints, not just Confucian saints, that no one could have imagined. After all, if the saint's oath could be easily reneged on, then this world with strict rules would have been changed beyond recognition.
The old scholar voluntarily gave up his body and skin, gave up many of the magical powers of Confucian saints, and wandered around the world with his soul.
The old scholar waited until the young man put his hands on his hips, lowered his head and panted, and asked: "Have you finished scolding? Is it time for me to speak reason?"
With a breath of evil breath, the young man in white clothes After expressing his true feelings, Cui Chan felt a little guilty and timid when he recalled all the deeds of this old guy, and began to remain silent.
The old scholar sighed: "Who taught Qi Jingchun how to play chess?"
Cui Chan immediately held his head high and said, "I!"
An old man's face Expressionless, he said slowly: "I once told all of you that when you are trying to reason with others, even if it is a quarrel or even a debate, you must be calm."
Cui Chan immediately remained silent and lowered his voice. He said: "It's me... Qi Jingchun has no understanding of chess. He lost to me a few times and refused to play again."
The old man asked again, "Then who taught you how to play chess?" ”
Cui Chan didn’t want to tell the answer.
The old scholar snorted coldly: "I!"
Cui Chan felt aggrieved and itched his teeth with hatred. Old man, do you know what it means to lead by example?
The old scholar took a breath and said, "When you were teaching Qi Jingchun to play chess, who was better than me in chess skill?"
Cui Chan reluctantly said: "I Not as good as you."
The old man asked: "Then did you know that Qi Jingchun learned to play chess and quickly beat me?"
The young man was stunned.
I don’t doubt the truth of the old man’s words.
The old man asked again: "Do you know what Qi Jingchun said in private? He said to me, 'Senior brother really likes to play chess, but he is a little obsessed with winning and losing, and I don't want to play chess. I'm always lying. If my senior brother always loses to me, then he will lose a happy thing in the future.'"
The young man Cui Chen stiffened his neck and said, "Even if this is the case, so what?" /p>
The old man was angry that he did not argue and lamented his misfortune, and reprimanded: "You are a stubborn duck with a tough mouth. You are always quick to recognize your mistakes and very slow to admit them! As for making corrections, hum!"
Youngster Cui Han said angrily: "You didn't teach me this!"
The old man glared at him, was silent for a moment, and said regretfully: "Ma Zhan's betrayal may have troubled Xiao Qi more than Cui Chan's plan." "Disappointed."
Cui Chan sneered: "I don't care about people like Ma Zhan. His heart is as high as the sky and his life is as thin as paper. If you say that I am doing it for the opportunity and the incense. Cultural background, as for him, just for the sake of being the master of the Academy, and hoping to control a school palace in the future, for such a small amount of fame and fortune, he would give up the friendship of his classmates and be willing to be someone else's pawn. He really deserves to be damned. At the beginning, you gave Qi Jingchun a parting message, "You can only learn from it."Blue, and greener than blue. ’ This sentence is widely circulated, I know it, but what did you give Ma Zhan?
The old man said calmly: "Heaven and earth give birth to gentlemen, and gentlemen govern heaven and earth." What a pity. ”
I don’t know if it’s a pity for this sentence or a pity for Ma Zhan.
Cui Chan said sarcastically: “After Ma Zhan left the town with those children, he first met them. One of my chess pieces had a very pleasant conversation, and they were quite frank. He mentioned that he had a dispute with Qi Jingchun about whether to leave Lizhu Cave Sky or to stay. Qi Jingchun finally said something very strange to him, Ma Zhan was a little frightened, saying, "A gentleman always makes mistakes when he makes mistakes, and when he stretches out, he stretches out." 'Ma Zhan, this idiot, after Qi Jingchun turned upside down and died generously, still followed his selfish motives and dreamed about the spring and Autumn period of a mountain master. It was only when he was about to die that he finally realized that Qi Jingchun was in the school at that time. In fact, it had already been You know what he did, but you just haven't wanted to expose it. You still hope that Ma Zhan can take good care of those children. Ma Zhan was really an afterthought. After being delayed and perfunctory twice, he finally knew that everything was over. For the only time in his life, he aroused the blood of so many men and hurt my chess piece at the cost of losing the next life. It was only then that those children were able to return to the town, and so many things happened in the end..."
At the end, the young man in white became more and more powerless.
The old scholar sighed endlessly.< /p>
Many people and things in Lizhu Cave, especially in the past sixty years when Qi Jingchun was in charge, the secrets of heaven have been even more isolated. Qi Jingchun, Old Man Yang, and some people behind the scenes have secretly taken action, causing this small cave to change. The situation is so confusing and there are so many variables that even an old scholar would find it extremely difficult to calculate and deduce. He dare not say that the truth deduced must be the truth.
The tall woman's gentle voice sounded softly, "Chat." Finished? "
Cui Chan found that the old scholar's face was a bit ugly, and sighed heavily. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the woman looking at him. The old man could only take off the bag on his back, took out a scroll, and gently She gently untied the rope that bound the scroll.
Chen Pingan was confused.
She walked to Chen Pingan and said with a smile: "You can use the sword three times later. "
She squinted her eyes, looked at the sky outside the lotus leaves, and said slowly: "I will return to my true form later, so you don't have to be surprised. "
Finally she seemed to remember something and apologized: "I forgot to say two words. "
Chen Ping'an raised his head.
The tall woman suppressed her smile and respectfully called: "Master. ”
