Chapter 237: After the slight summer heat, the spring breeze is still there

The devil who looked like a girl had a gloomy expression, "Song Yushao, you are determined to break up with me today. Wrestling?"

The old man in black took out an old almanac from his arms, opened a page, put his finger on a place, and said silently: "It is better to fast and seek wealth. "

The old man put away the old almanac, held the ancient bronze sword, put it in its sheath, stretched out his hand to the girl and said: "I will allow you to lose money and eliminate disaster."

The girl knew very well the rules of the old geek in front of her. Without saying a word, she took out a yellow jade copper coin from her sleeve. On the front, it was engraved with "Out of plum blossoms and into ambush", and on the reverse it was "Thunder and thunder at the top of the sky". This kind of jade money, like the snow money, is the currency used by the gods on the mountain to do business. The jade money in the girl's hand is nicknamed "Xiaoshu money". Compared with the snow money, its value is just like the money in the market. There is a big difference between copper coins and silver coins.

She gently threw the little money to the old man in black. Instead of saying harsh words, she smiled like a flower and said: "We don't know each other until we fight. I hope I will go to Jianshui in the future." When visiting the Villa, the old owner of the Villa must not turn away people thousands of miles away."

The old man in black had no expression on his face, put away his money, and let the girl turn into a puff of black smoke. , drifting slowly away from the temple.

The kendo master named Song Yushao flicked his fingers, and wisps of breeze were like arrows, hitting several acupuncture points in the heart of the bearded man and the young Taoist priest respectively. The two of them were tricked by the female devil and were immobilized by acupoints. They could neither speak nor move. As time went by, they were able to break through the restrictions on their own. However, if the old man did not appear, they would still be able to do so in a short period of time. Rely on Chen Pingan to fight against the enemy alone.

This was the first time Zhang Shanfeng had tasted the acupuncture techniques of martial arts masters. He gasped for air immediately after regaining his freedom and was still feeling a little unwell.

Xu Yuanxia was originally a pure martial artist with excellent martial arts skills. This time the boat capsized in the ditch, she could not help but blush. She cupped her fists at the old man and said, "Thank you Song Sword Master for your generous help!"

The old man in black was an eccentric man, so he turned a deaf ear and walked straight to the fire, sat cross-legged, with the sword across his knees, and began to close his eyes and meditate.

Xu Yuanxia lowered her voice and gave Zhang Shanfeng and Chen Pingan a general introduction to the world.

In the central area of ​​Aquarius Continent, especially in the dozens of countries near Caiyi Kingdom, there are four sword masters who are famous. There is a sword god in Caiyi Kingdom who has long since withdrawn from the world. , who has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests for more than thirty years, is known as the god of swordsmanship, and wears a sword called Zhuyang. However, a shocking bad news recently came out. The old sword god died in revenge from his enemies, which caused a storm in the surrounding world and made people's hearts fluctuate.

Then there is the old man in black in front of him. He is the old owner of Jianshui Villa in Shushui Kingdom. He has an eccentric temperament and is a generation later than the Sword God of Caiyi Kingdom. He has the reputation of sword master, wears a sword of iron water, and founded the sword god. Shuishan Villa is the largest Jianghu sect in Shushui Kingdom. The current owner of the village is the eldest grandson of Song Yushao. His swordsmanship is equally amazing.

A famous sword master emerged in the ancient Yu Kingdom. He was extremely lethal and had extremely poor martial ethics. He was a wandering immortal who had no fixed abode and had no sect. , lives alone, is rumored to have a good relationship with the emperor of the ancient Yu Kingdom, and wears a sword with a green bead.

Songxi Kingdom also has the youngest rising star, who calls himself the Green Bamboo Sword Immortal.

These four swordsmanship masters are like stars, shining in the skies over the rivers and lakes of more than ten countries including Caiyi Kingdom. Even the immortals on the mountain dare not look down on them.

The old man in black suddenly opened his eyes and sneered: "Sneaky, show yourself to me!"

The old man, who was revered as the "Sword Master", unsheathed his long sword and slashed towards the temple altar. A large dazzling clear sword energy suddenly rose up, which was already in ruins. The altar was completely shattered, and a delicate and thin girl was revealed from behind. She held her little head in both hands regardless of it, as if no one could see her.

When another weird girl appeared, Zhang Shanfeng’s string of demon bells trembled slightly.

Almost all the elves, monsters, ghosts, and cultivation methods in the world are not orthodox. As long as the Taoism is not deep and the realm is not high, there is often nowhere to hide under the demon bell. This is also the must-have item for listening to the demon bell to become a Qi practitioner second only to Bai Zetu, and it is highly respected. Before Xu Yuanxia entered the fourth level of martial arts, she also had a string of similar bells for self-defense and warning.

Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng paid more attention to the girl.

Chen Ping'an, who wanted to practice swordsmanship formally but had never been able to get in, was amazed by the old man's sword unsheathing. It seemed like an understatement, just a wave of the sword, but the sword's energy Like a rainbow, wherever the sword energy went, it was like being hit by a waterfall, making it invincible.

After the demon girl took action, Liu Chicheng became extremely silent. He always squatted by the bonfire, saying nothing, stretching out his palms and lowering his head to warm himself.

"How can such a pure place of Buddhism be defiled by a little monster like you!"

The old man in black had a cold face and shook his wrist. , I saw the tip of the bronze sword tremble slightly, and instantly a dazzling white light shot out from the tip, like the demon-binding rope of the immortal master on the mountain, twisting and twisting, and soon spread out in the air, like a majestic and magnificent picture of heaven. The French Open, facing the timid girl who was judged to be a monsterWhen under the hood.

Chen Pingan calmly took in this picture and opened his eyes.

The sword energy that should be so meticulous can actually be controlled so skillfully and change in countless ways?

The old man holds a sword in one hand and has everything at his fingertips!

It was especially the calm demeanor that attracted Chen Pingan the most.

The girl was first condensed and then dispersed by the sword energy, and the big net fell on her body, making a squeaking sound. This made her roll on the ground in pain. This heart-piercing burning, This mountain monster has been hurt deep in his soul. Thinking back to Chen Ping'an when he was in the Luo Shan Bamboo House, he was still in pain, let alone a little monster who has been practicing laxly and has lived in isolation from the world for hundreds of years.

After experiencing this catastrophe, the girl soon lost her human form. Most of her face revealed the look of a fox, and clumps of snow-white hair grew on the back of her hands and neck, giving off a faint foxy smell.

The weak snow-white fox fairy struggled on the ground and wailed, "I have never harmed anyone. I have never harmed anyone. I have only teased and frightened some scholars who stayed in the ancient temple. Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

The old man in black seemed to have some knots in his heart. He held a long sword in his hand, the sword energy was brilliant, the rainbow light bloomed, and he said sternly: "A demon is a demon, Demons are demons, so what if you don’t harm anyone today? When your moral character reaches a high level, you will naturally kill innocent people for fun!”

A girl with half of her body turned into a white fox is lying on her back. On the ground, he was dying and said: "I also rescued two scholars from that nun. For this reason, I also gave them many things that I have treasured for a long time, so that they let the scholars go. I will not harm anyone. , I will never do this in my life..."

The old man in black sneered: "You little fox fairy, it is not a pity to die! I dare to kill a hundred monsters with my sword! , at best, it’s just an injustice!”

The young fox fairy was no longer able to defend herself, her body was twitching, her clothes were torn, and her body was covered in blood. Guang, but when she was dying, the girl did not resent the old man's fierce attack, but looked at the gate of the ancient temple, as if waiting for a poor scholar to come to visit, and then she could scare them again, if she succeeded. , can make her happy for several months.

Liu Chicheng slowly raised his head, the golden light flowing in his deep eyes, a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, and a helpless sigh that had seen all the world. , I just feel that life will still be so boring after a thousand years.

Just when Liu Chicheng was about to stand up.

Chen Pingan stood up and gently bumped the sword box behind him. SuddenlyHe opened his mouth and asked: "Senior Song, what if this fox fairy happens to be the demon who was wronged?"

The old man twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "That's just right. We can be sure that the ninety-nine heads before and the next ninety-nine heads are definitely the evil spirits causing harm to the people. Therefore, when I draw the sword, it will only be more effective."

Chen Pingan pointed to the girl who had completely transformed into a fox, "What should I do with her?"

The old man patted his chest and said bluntly: "If the old almanac is found, it should be buried. , I will bury it. If it is not suitable, then let the body be exposed to the sun, and try to get a good pregnancy in the next life. Don’t be a monster in the mountains and rivers again, and of course, don’t be encountered by me again.”

Chen Pingan was a little stubborn and said: "Of course the old man did the right thing to kill the demon when he encountered it, and to defeat the demon when he encountered it, but he could have done it more correctly."

The old man was careful. Staring at the young man in the box, he suddenly laughed out loud, "Gua Wa Zi, don't you seem to be a bastard? You are just staying in an ancient temple, so you think you are a Buddha and a Bodhisattva who saves the suffering?"

Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment and asked: "Senior Song, how can you let this fox go?"

Song Yushao, the old man in black, stood up and said in a deep voice: "I remember that you are also a swordsman, so I used the sword that was supposed to kill the Fox Fairy against you. If you If you can catch it, forget about the matter here in the ancient temple. Whether this fox fairy will do evil or good deeds in the future, you will be responsible for the retribution of good and evil. If you can't catch it and die under my sword, I blame you for not being strong enough. How about taking the lead?"

Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng also stood up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Song Yushao laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, if you two want to take action, I will use two more swords if possible. The rules are still the same."

"Okay!"

Chen Pingan nodded, then shook his head at Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng, indicating that they did not need to intervene.

"Be careful."

The old man is not a sloppy character. After giving a warning, he swung his sword.

The distance was only one foot, and the sword light struck in front of Chen Pingan in an instant.

A square-inch shrinking talisman has already slipped from Chen Pingan's sleeve. It is made of ordinary yellow paper. He pinched it with two fingers. The moment the sword energy came close to him, Chen Pingan's figure disappeared. disappear.

The old man in black sneered.

It turned out that after the sword energy struck the empty space, it continued to move forward, just in the direction of the snow-white fox curled up on the ground.

The square-inch talisman from the "Authentic Alchemy Book" presented by Li Xisheng is mysterious and magical, but it is a one-time consumable item. After Chen Pingan offered this talisman, it had already appeared in the open space two feet away. , but when he discovered that the sword energy was continuing to slash at the fox demon, he had no time to take out another square-inch talisman, so he tiptoed and jumped forward quickly. At the same time, he reached out to his shoulder and held down the "Devil Demon" sword of the locust wood sword. With his handle, he slashed towards the sword energy and flew away in the air.

Although he is drawing a sword, in the final analysis, Chen Pingan is still based on boxing.

The old man surnamed Cui taught him the fierce steps of the cavalry and chisel formations, but with wooden swords instead of boxing moves, Chen Ping'an is just the body and soul of the third realm of martial arts, let alone that A master of martial arts who can combine boxing skills and sword intent will naturally fall into the eyes of a true expert. This time he made a hasty move that seemed quite awkward.

The locust wood sword flowing with fist energy struck the old man's sword energy, forcibly blocking it from killing the young fox fairy.

For a moment, the sword light exploded, and the sword energy flew everywhere.

Chen Ping'an held the locust sword in his hand. After landing on his feet, he staggered around and stood in front of the demon fox. He waved wildly at the split sword energy and drew his sword. The posture is exactly like the good one punch that someone once joked about.

After Taoist Zhang Shanfeng breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't bear to look directly at it.

The bearded man covered his forehead with his hand and said helplessly: "I thought this guy's boxing skills were quite good. He must have been carrying a sword box for so long. He must be a young man who hides his secrets. The chivalrous swordsman..."

The sword energy in front of him was shattered. Chen Pingan finished his work and quickly weighed the locust wood sword in his hand. Although it was a light wooden sword, it was extremely tough. The majestic sword energy of the kendo master of the Shushui Kingdom, with not a single chip or flaw on the sword, made Chen Ping'an feel at ease.

The old man in black smiled casually and laughed at himself: "I never thought that there are still people in the world who can block my sword with a bastard punch. Okay, I will keep my word, little one If you catch it, I'll stop embarrassing the fox monster on the ground. You can take care of yourself, and you must know that you will be punished. I hope you will cherish this fate of temporarily not knowing good and evil."

The old man put his sword into its sheath. He had been sitting cross-legged before he stood up, turned around and left. After walking out of the temple gate, he looked up into the gloomy night and murmured: "There are countless monsters and ghosts that can't be killed. When will the endless monsters and monsters come to an end?"

The founder of Jianshui Villa in the past suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "If you four are interested, you can go to my village. Recently, Jianzhuang is electing the martial arts leader of Shushui Kingdom. It is a grand event in the world. If you arrive at Jianzhuang, I may not be there. You can directly find the oldest manager Chu, who is the new one I met in the world. Friends, I still have a few glasses of wine."

The old man finally looked at Chen Ping'an, "Tonight you have the patience to do a good thing more rightly and better. Before my old age, from my youth to my middle age, I was always just like you, just a little more. But... that's all, I won't tell the young man the old guy's frustrating words. In short, I hope you can persevere. ."

The old man patted his sword on his waist and walked away silently in the night.

Chen Pingan was stunned. After coming back to his senses, he turned his head and stared wide-eyed. The young fox fairy had disappeared without knowing it. .

The bearded man pointed at his face and joked: "Chen Ping'an, Chen Ping'an, a hero saves a beauty, it depends on whether the beauty can marry him afterwards. !"

Chen Pingan put the locust wood sword into the wooden box made by Wei Bo, ran towards the fire, reached out and leaned towards the bonfire, and glanced at the yawning man sitting opposite. Liu Chicheng, the latter said with a playful smile: "What are you looking at? Now you finally start to envy me for my handsomeness? Alas, actually I also envy you Chen Ping'an. If I had half your martial arts skills, I would have become a famous figure in the world long ago. The dream lover of thousands of heroines and fairies!"

Chen Pingan rolled his eyes, took off the wine bottle, and took a swig of wine.

After drinking, Chen Pingan held the wine gourd, his mood was agitated, and he was by no means as calm as he appeared on the surface.

The reason why he did not ask the two young ancestors to fly out of the sword-raising gourd to stop the sword energy of Song Yushao from the sword village, but instead put themselves in danger, was not Chen Ping'an. Motivated.

Chen Pingan sighed, stood up, and went to the open space. After fastening the wine gourd, he closed his eyes and carefully recalled the three times the old swordsman of Shushui Kingdom struck with his sword. On the altar, the fox fairy was forced to appear. With a flick of his wrist, the sword energy formed a net, and the last one was of course the sword that hit Chen Ping'an's head.

Chen Ping'an still didn't open his eyes, but slowly drew out the locust wood sword, imitating the old man and held the sword horizontally in front of his chest, like a sword in a sheath, with the sword not yet coming out.

For some reason, Chen Pingan thought about it over and over again, and always felt that even if he copied it thousands of times, he would never be able to imitate it. Not to mention the similarity in spirit, I am afraid it would be difficult to resemble it in form.

This is very different from when he watched Miss Ning walk the six-step boxing pile.

It turns out that drawing a sword is different from practicing boxing.

Chen Pingan sighed and had no choice but to put away the locust wood sword that had followed him on two trips to the world.

Someone laughed and said, "Chen Ping'an, your wooden sword is too light, so the taste will never be right. It's a high level of swordsmanship to lift a heavy weight. You are a beginner." , is not a genius who practices swordsmanship, so of course he will feel that something is not right. Let’s not talk about climbing to the top, just getting started. So when it comes to practicing boxing, it is enough to have a slightly famous master to lead the way, but practicing swords still requires some time. A master should lead the way. In fact, you should ask Song Yushao sincerely about the way of swordsmanship. This person is not in a high level of martial arts, but he has already developed his own way of swordsmanship. This is not easy."

Chen Pingan turned around and looked.

This insight was not spoken by a bearded man, or even by Zhang Shanfeng who could fly with a mahogany sword. Instead, it was Liu Chicheng, a scholar who had nothing to do with the world, who said this. At that time, Liu Chicheng stood next to a blazing fire with many dead branches added to it. The firelight reflected it, and his slender figure swayed slowly with the firelight.

Zhang Shanfeng was asking Xu Yuanxia for advice on Jianghu acupuncture. He was very focused on asking and answering questions and didn't pay much attention to Liu Chicheng's words.

In other words, the two of them did not hear Liu Chicheng's words at all.

Because Liu Chicheng did not speak from the beginning to the end, Chen Ping'an could really hear Liu Chicheng's voice.

Chen Pingan asked a strange question, "Is it you? In Rouge County, I heard Prefect Liu say privately that you are actually a Jindan realm immortal, because outside the city He has shown a magical power."

Liu Chicheng waved his hand, slowly walked around the fire, came to Chen Pingan, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's stop fighting. You already know that I am a great demon, and I also know that the sword behind your back has a great origin, otherwise it would not be able to suppress it just now. After sensing my breath, it trembled spontaneously. Although you are very fast, I suppressed its movements forcibly, but I am not blind, so now you and I know it well. Chen Pingan, can you tell me where this sword was forged? Shan, who should I leave it to?"

Chen Pingan looked solemn and asked: "You want to grab the sword?"

"Liu Chicheng" He narrowed his eyes with a smile, as if he heard a big joke, put his hands behind his back, shook his head and laughed: "The sword is a good sword, but I'm really not interested. I know you don't believe this, it doesn't matter, I'm much better than you." Much, you just have to watch what I do. By the way, have you heard of it.One sentence? The good things in the world are not firm, and the colorful clouds are easy to scatter and the glass is brittle. "

Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "I've seen it in poems. "

Liu Chicheng waved his sleeves, and the smoke and water were hazy, and the clouds covered the fog and fell on the side of the bonfire. From this point of view, there was nothing strange about it. "Liu Chicheng" was talking with Chen Ping'an had a great conversation. In fact, this Han scholar from Baishui country was wearing a pink Taoist robe, with jade trees facing the wind. The scene at this time was extremely strange.

Liu Chicheng continued: "'Caiyun Yi. "Scatter" means that among the colorful clouds in Baidi City, the clouds gather and disperse like flying smoke, and the scenery is magnificent. "

"'Liu Li Jian' means that there was once a great demon from the demon sect of Baidi City. The conflict like tonight was all for a seemingly insignificant person. The little monster had a dispute with the senior brother. He was for the general trend of the world, and I was for my own reasons. The senior brother and the senior brother broke up. Looking back now, it is really funny, just like two children having a tantrum. Anyway, I was so angry, He smashed an entire glazed attic in Caiyunjian of Baidi City, leaving only a few small glazed wine cups. From then on, he left Baidi City and traveled around the world without the protection of his master. Finally, he was killed by the defender of the righteous leader. He was pursued and intercepted for thousands of miles, and finally imprisoned and suppressed for thousands of years. My senior brother, from beginning to end, just stood by and watched. "

Chen Pingan frowned and asked: "Why are you telling me this? "

Liu Chicheng smiled slightly, shook his hands, shook the two big sleeves of his pink robe, folded his hands on his abdomen, and said in a serious manner, "Because I have recently accepted a disciple. Thoughts, I think you, Chen Pingan, are quite good. I can teach you the best swordsmanship in the world. Although I am from the local demon clan in the world, my senior brother is the leader of the demon sect and is more like an immortal than an immortal. Many experts from the righteous immortal family are willing to pay homage to my senior brother, so the swordsmanship I teach you is also the authentic swordsmanship that can help you reach the top of the great road. When the opportunity comes, you are expected to reach the upper five realms. You know The word 'authentic' is not a word that can be used indiscriminately. Although Song Yushao and his like have figured out the true meaning of their own swordsmanship, for such a pure martial artist with limited qualifications, his martial arts level will help you reach a position similar to that of a middle five swordsman, Chen Ping'an , what do you think? Are you willing to practice the Tao with me as a disciple? "

Chen Pingan asked: "Be a devil? "

Liu Chicheng smiled and said: "In my opinion, the road is rugged and difficult, and only those who persevere can walk it. In the end, it is even expected to go further and higher than those talented people. You, Chen Ping'an, are of the same sect as me. Now I have helped you recruit a senior brother. Don't worry, you are my last disciple. In a hundred years at most, the three of us, master and disciple, will definitely become famous.Tianxia, ​​return to Baidi City and occupy a place there. "

Liu Chicheng stared into Chen Pingan's eyes and smiled, "The sect that my senior brother and I were in was very interesting. The senior brother is a human being who practices magic. I am Demon, to practice human supernatural powers, the purpose set by our master is exactly the four words "teaching without distinction". This is very similar to the second disciple of Tao Ancestor, Zhen Wudi. In addition to Baidi City, there are several great sects in the demon sect in the world. Each one is astonishingly powerful and intertwined. Even the righteous immortal sects with the prefix Zong must avoid their sharp edges. Therefore, as long as your fists are strong enough, your realm If you are high enough, any demonic or right path is all nonsense and does not matter at all. "

Chen Pingan grinned, "I have to ask if I recognize you as my master. "

Sweat has already appeared on his forehead, but at this moment, the young man carrying the box looks calm and not afraid at all.

"Oh? ”

Liu Chicheng’s eyes lit up, “I knew you, boy, must have a good teacher. It doesn’t matter. Let’s talk and listen. In the end, we will judge the situation. A good bird will choose the right tree to roost, and there will be no shame.” . I won't force you, let alone use words to bully you. As long as your mentorship is higher than mine, I will never force this master-disciple relationship. "

The literary sage and old scholar, as expected, has already left Aquarius Island. Where can Chen Ping'an go to find him?

Mr. Qi passed away again. There seems to be no way.

But Chen Pingan is absolutely unwilling to follow this person to practice the Tao of Heaven.

Chen Pingan took a deep breath, then bet. Once.

Success or failure depends on this.

If it really doesn’t work, try your best once, and if it still doesn’t work, just like A Liang said, The world is huge and the world is the biggest one alive. If you accept "Liu Chicheng" as your master, no matter what, you must first send the sword to Daoxuan Mountain and hand it to Miss Ning before talking about anything else!

No one knows why Chen Ping An escorted Li Baoping and his companions to the Sui Dynasty for the first time, and then followed the young Cui Han back to Huang Tingguo. Why Chen Ping An must practice the stake sword every time on the top of a mountain or by a river. Furnace, and even after practicing, he will stand still for a long time.

Even if this time he is alone in the world, just like the last time he watched Liu Gaoxin travel in Rouge County, Chen Ping'an will still do it. Sitting alone on the high ridge of the roof, drinking wine and mumbling to myself in the last spring breeze of this year.

But in those times when no one thinks deeply, there will be a spring breeze lingering. Sleeve.

Deep in his heart, Chen Pingan knew that the person must have passed away, but that person also said it.>

When you are unsure about something, you can ask the spring breeze.

Then, Liu Chicheng couldn’t help laughing and laughed happily because he thought it was fun.

It turned out that when he saw the young man in front of him, he followed his example, shaking his wrists and lifting his sleeves.

But Liu Chicheng stopped laughing soon.

Between the young man's raised hands, there were wisps of spring breeze lingering happily on his sleeves, like a blue dragon swimming in the sea of ​​clouds.

Chen Pingan asked softly: "Mr. Qi?"

Liu Chicheng was shocked. At this moment, it was like the scene a thousand years ago. The battle was against Zhang Tianshi, who held a fairy sword in one hand and a magic seal in the other!

A warm and mellow voice sounded beside Chen Pingan, "Yes."
