Chen Ping'an did not expect that this journey would last for half a year. It was not a journey to find the Taoist temple. It was too far away, but Chen Pingan relied on the instructions from the "Chang Qi" behind his back to go around in circles in a majestic city. It took him three months to find the so-called Taoist temple. , in the capital city of Nanyuan State, Chen Pingan asked all the traffickers, warriors, escort chiefs, government officials, etc., but he had never heard of any Taoist temples. Chen Pingan read through various historical records, county annals and private records. There are still no clues in the notes. The only gain is probably that Chen Pingan can speak Nanyuan Mandarin fluently.
In this way, from the late autumn to the heavy snow, to the pattering spring rain, until the arrival of the beginning of summer, Chen Pingan can be sure that the entrance to the Taoist Temple is in this capital, but Never get in through the door.
Even if Chen Ping'an is as determined as Chen Ping'an, he is beginning to feel a little shaken and irritable.
During this period, Chen Pingan had many strange experiences. He saw a floating cyan dress at night. It danced like a beautiful lady, and its long sleeves were like flowing water.
Unintentionally, I saw through a blindfold and saw a section of the inner city wall with skeletons leaning on each other. Each blue brick was engraved with Buddhist scriptures.
I also met monks who are rarely seen in Aquarius Island. Buddhism is popular in Nanyuan Kingdom, and there are many temples in various places. Chen Ping'an learned about the monks' many cassocks and their chanting. Various differences among monks, preaching monks, Dharma transmitting monks and Dharma protector monks. Once when he left the capital to get some fresh air, he followed a group of monks carrying secret orders from the imperial court to a fierce battlefield. Chen Pingan witnessed with his own eyes more than a hundred chanting monks sitting on lotus futons, chanting several times. The sutra monk took off his boots, walked barefoot, lowered his head and folded his hands. Between his feet and when he opened and closed his lips, snow-white lotus blossoms appeared. The monks all had a string of rosary beads wrapped around their palms. If there were evil spirits entangled, they would be The golden luster emanating from the rosary repels.
The rosary beads are golden, the monks are solemn, and lotus flowers are born step by step.
Leading tens of thousands of resentful dead souls and following them into the "Gate of Hell" where Yin and Yang meet.
In the end, Chen Ping'an sat far away, imitating the monk's clasping hands, bowing his head and saying nothing.
After returning to the capital, Chen Pingan still could not find the Taoist temple. Just when Chen Pingan gritted his teeth and prepared to go to the palace secretly, on this day, with the scorching sun in the sky, Chen Pingan came to a Next to the well, I looked down and saw that it was bottomless and dark.
Chen Pingan watched for a while.
I just couldn’t see the way out, so I looked back and continued wandering.
Looking back at the well, I was standing there, which seemed to be a bit refreshing.

Since the battle with Cai Jingshen in the Sui Dynasty, Cui Dongshan has won the title of an ancestor of the Cai family. He is very popular in Shanya Academy, and with Cui Dongshan's current appearance, red mole between his eyebrows, and handsome figure, he is really pleasing to the eye.
Cui Dongshan can walk around the academy at will, and is always accompanied by a personal maid named Xie. Today, the two of them went to attend a classics and meaning class taught by Master Ge. After listening to half of it, they originally thought Cui Dongshan, who was lying on the window sill outside, fell asleep. Thank you for standing aside, not daring to disturb the young master's spring and autumn dream, which made all the students in the room hold back their laughter. It was very hard, and Old Master Ge wished he could beat Cui Dongshan with a ruler. Dongshan's head was full of bruises, but when he thought of Cai Jingshen who had moved out of the capital with his family, the old master suppressed his anger and turned around and told deputy mountain chief Mao Xiaodong that Cui Dongshan was not allowed to come near his classroom in the future.
Shocking, as if he had a nightmare, Cui Dongshan opened his eyes, took a long time to recover, and swaggered back to his residence with his maid to thank him.
When Xie Xie closed the courtyard door, Cui Dongshan took off his boots and stepped over the threshold. He waved his sleeves and the mist rose, finally revealing a picture of the mountains and rivers of Aquarius Continent.
Cui Dongshan crossed his chest with one hand and held his chin with the other. He first stood at Sui Dynasty at the northernmost point of "Aquarius Continent", and moved his eyes southward, crossing the territory of Huang Tingguo and Da Sui Dynasty, and stopped there. In the central area of Guanhu Academy, Caiyi Kingdom and Shushui Kingdom, he suddenly lay down on the ground and looked around.
Thank you for sitting on the threshold. This map of Yizhoukan almost occupies the entire room. She will definitely be scolded and possibly beaten when she goes in.
Cui Dongshan kept lying there and asked casually: "Do you think there is anyone in the Sui Kingdom now, in the temples, rivers and lakes, on the mountains and down the mountains, cursing the emperor, begging for mercy or ceding territory without fighting? A foolish king seeking peace?” , but I have never heard of anyone hurling insults."
Cui Dongshan stood up and said with a smile: "There is a good thing about scholars. They don't criticize kings, but only treacherous ministers, powerful eunuchs, vixens, and relatives. Cursing the heavens and the earth and cursing his mother... Of course, there are no absolutes. There are definitely people who dare to criticize the emperor, but there are very few who can criticize well and hit the nail on the head."
Thank you already. She was used to getting along with Cui Dongshan, so she said perfunctorily: "Young master, I would like to see you."
She was really perfunctory and made no secret of it.Not to mention the "literary demon" and "old fox spirit" Dali Imperial Master, even a careless person like Li Huai can see through it at a glance.
But Cui Dongshan doesn't mind this.
Cui Dongshan put his hands on his hips, opened his mouth, and sucked in all the fog on the map.
Then Cui Dongshan raised his hands, opened his teeth and claws, and grinned like a tiger roaring.
Thank you for watching, the corners of your mouth twitched.
Cui Dongshan clapped his sleeves and said proudly, "It's so angry that it can swallow up thousands of miles like a tiger. It's amazing, it's amazing."
Thank you, maid, I just hate it. I didn't dare to roll my eyes.
She turned to look at the high wall of the courtyard. No matter how undercurrents were surging in the Sui Dynasty, it was another peaceful day in Dongshan and the Academy.
A golden thread suddenly arrived from outside the hospital!
Silent and as fast as lightning.
Although it is extremely small, not even as good as a piece of green hair from a woman to thank you, when this slender golden thread appears out of thin air, in the late autumn when the climate turns cooler, the temperature of the entire yard rises. Increased height makes people feel like they are in the hot summer.
Thank you for being dumbfounded and unable to react in time.
Her mind went blank. Although the temperature in the hospital was scorching, Xie Xie was cold all over. She turned her head stiffly and saw Cui Dongshan’s eyebrows being pierced by a golden thread, and he fell backwards. Go and crash to the ground.
It must be the assassination method of a land god!
In the distance, a vicissitudes of life voice sounded happily, "It is not a pity to die if the demon is causing chaos in the country!"
Farther away, in this small world The master's deputy chief, Mao Xiaodong, shouted angrily: "How dare you commit murder in the academy?!" The boy in white died just like that?
Xie Xie suddenly woke up when someone tapped him on the shoulder. His body tensed up, and when he turned around to look, he was about to slap him with his backhand.
But thank you for hastily stopping, with an expression as if you had seen a ghost in the day.
It turned out that Cui Dongshan was standing in front of her, bending down to look at her. He narrowed his eyes, put one hand behind his back, gently stretched out his fingers with the other hand, and touched Xie's forehead a little, pushing it. She fell into the room, but the mysterious thing was that Xie Xie's body had fallen backwards on the floor, but her ethereal soul remained where she was. Cui Dongshan used arrogant and secret techniques to forcefully separate her body and soul.The soul destroyed by Yang Qi will soon dissipate.
Cui Dongshan looked at Xie Xie's soul, and finally found something strange in one of her Qi Palaces. He smiled and said, "Hide and seek with me, be a little more mature." Like a chess player twisting a chess piece with his fingers, he grabs a dark green spot of light from his soul and squeezes it randomly between his fingers. His body is pulled by the soul, and the delicate body that has lost consciousness is like a piece of light on a chopping board. The fish jumped hard.
Cui Dongshan slapped Xie Hunsoul on the "face" and scolded with a smile: "You are the one who fails to succeed but fails to succeed, go back."
Returning to the right place, thank you. She woke up slowly with a splitting headache. She struggled to sit up, put one hand on the ground, and covered her forehead with the other. The pain made her face full of tears.
Cui Dongshan strode into the threshold, bent down and picked up a very high-grade stand-in puppet talisman in the room, crushed it into ashes with his fingers, turned around and said with a smile: "Mao Xiaodong, Can you bear this?! People are shitting and peeing in your house!" During the chase, Mao Xiaodong's sneer voice came from afar and said, "Yes, you are. That piece of shit!"
Cui Dongshan laughed and said: "I walk around every day, so isn't our Cliff Academy a toilet?"
< /p>Thank you without saying a word.
Cui Dongshan was too lazy to explain the danger and mystery to her. He sat down cross-legged and frowned in thought.
Why is Guanhu Academy so forbearing?
The trip of the Great Li Cavalry to the south was a little too smooth, which was seriously inconsistent with his expectations. According to the original plan, there would be at least four arduous battles, one in the central part of the country. The nearby secular dynasties were at odds with Guanhu Academy, the Baishuang Dynasty in the southern Aquarius Continent, and the mountain forces in the southern Aquarius Continent.
Could it be that Aquarius Continent has quietly invaded many forces outside of the Great Li Mo Family?
It’s a pity that now that I am no longer the Grand Master of Great Li, many inside information on the top of the mountain are no longer available, including who is playing chess and what is the style of chess, all of which are blind.
Cui Dongshan suddenly asked: "Have you ever thought about taking root in Dali Longquan?"
Thank you and shook your head, "I have never thought about it."
The tall old man Mao Xiaodong strode into the courtyard, "It's a Nascent Soul monk of unknown origin, he ran away."
Cui Dongshan has no idea at all. He didn't care and said with a smile: "This time is just a test. You should be more careful with the masters and students in the academy. There are always some self-righteous so-called good people in the world. They think the world should be run according to their ideas. Once the cliffThe academy and the capital of the Sui Dynasty were in conflict, and it was not impossible that the two alliances between the Gao family and the Song family would be invalidated. "
Mao Xiaodong frowned and said: "Really want to close the mountain? ”
As for today’s assassination, there is little difference whether it was the original intention of some mountains in the Sui Dynasty or the work of “Cui Han”’s enemies, because the possibility Cui Dongshan mentioned is absolutely impossible. It's not a joke.
Cui Dongshan sneered: "Why, do you feel embarrassed? "
Mao Xiaodong made up his mind, turned around and left.
Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Mao Xiaodong, if you say that you are a piece of shit, If something goes wrong, I can help the academy. "
Mao Xiaodong turned his head and said expressionlessly: "I am a piece of shit. "
Cui Dongshan said angrily: "If I say that I am a piece of shit, can I take back what I said before and watch the fire comfortably from the other side? ”
The old man twitched the corner of his mouth, put down the word "no", and left quickly. Cui Dongshan sighed, fell backward, fell to the ground with a bang, and put his fingers together. He stood up in front of him, muttering "Urgent as a rule" and rolling around in the room.
Thank you for wiping the sweat from your forehead.
p>Cui Dongshan stopped his childish behavior and lay on the floor like a corpse, but he said more childish words, "Sir, when will you come back? This disciple is being bullied. "
Thank you but there is nothing you can do.
Cui Dongshan raised his head and asked: "Do you think your young master is telling a joke? "
Thank you for hesitating, but nodded.
Cui Dongshan lay on his side, holding his head with one hand, and sneered: "Yes Chen Ping'an is here, no matter whether his cultivation level is high or not, I just need to contribute. I won't get scolded if I do the right thing, and I will get scolded if I do the wrong thing. Anyway, I don't have to think too much. As for you, you can take less beatings from me. Yu Lu is so heartless and can just watch the fun. Lin Shouyi will turn to Taoism more, and Li Huai, who is timid, has even more reason to be timid. Anyway, Chen Ping'an is protecting him. ”
“My husband is responsible for all the worries anyway. ”
Cui Dongshan was lazy and said nothing.
Thank you for being curious and missing a little girl who likes to wear red clothes.
Thank you. p>
Cui Dongshan sighed, "Probably only Xiaobaoping will feel sorry for my husband. "
With an ouch, Cui Dongshan began to roll on the ground again, holding his heart in his hands and shouting, "Just think about it.This makes me feel so distressed."

Shanya Academy is here After the brief assassination incident, at the insistence of deputy mountain chief Mao Xiaodong, the mountain gate began to be sealed. No matter Mr. Confucius or the student servants were allowed to go out, the nominal mountain chief and the Minister of Rites of the Great Sui Dynasty responded. There was quite a bit of dissent, but His Majesty the Emperor supported this matter, and secretly sent several more ministers to hide near Dongshan, and also allowed Prince Gao Xuan to officially enter the academy to study.
This day Gao Xuan was admitted. Xuan accompanied his friend Yu Lu to fish at the lake.
As time passed, Yu Lu finally met Gao Xuan honestly. First, he was a member of the Lu family. The former prince, the second is his martial arts cultivation, Qi Realm
After hearing this, Gao Xuan just said two words, one oh and one wow.
The prince of the Sui Dynasty had bright eyes at that time, and he was proud of his choice of friends.
Yu Lu didn't think there was anything wrong with this, and he reciprocated the favor, and Gao Xuan also said a lot about himself. When dealing with a woman, if you hope to be perfect, you may not really like her. When you are in a relationship with a man, if you can completely ignore your shortcomings and treat him sincerely, you may really treat him as a friend.
Two peers, each with a green bamboo fishing rod, quietly waited for the fish to take the bait. Gao Xuan asked: "Didn't you say before that the Aquarius Society would hold a martial arts conference? Why did it take me so long to enter the academy? I never saw you attending again? "
Yu Lu smiled and said: "Aquarius has been done three times, and then I stopped gathering the heroes. It's hard to say for others. Anyway, I am a little disappointed. "
Gao Xuan pointed to the path on the shore and smiled: "Li Huai is over there. ”
Yu Lu did not turn around to look.
Without looking at it, he knew that Li Huai must be having fun with two friends. A lively, cheerful, somewhat mischievous Han clan kid, and a powerful grandson who has been in a hairpin for generations but is timid and introverted. The three of them somehow got together and were inseparable every day. It is said that at the suggestion of the Han clan kid, the three little guys got together. They cut off the chicken head and burned it on yellow paper, and became sworn brothers. The so-called chicken head was just a bird caught from a tree, and the yellow paper was a page quietly torn from a book in the library. After the incident was revealed, the three of them still had to fight for it. The three of them used the branches in their hands as swords by the lake, whizzing past each other, and Li Huai naturally saw Yu fishing on the shore. Lu, but he hesitated and still didn't say hello to Yu Lu.
If it was Lin Shouyi, Li Huai might have a few words to thank Lu and Li Huai.Not particularly close.
In the team that traveled to study in the Sui Dynasty, Li Huai, Li Baoping, and Lin Shouyi were classmates and fellow villagers, and their friendship was stronger than that between Yu Lu and Xie Xie.
Lin Shouyi goes to the library less now. In addition to attending classes every day, he mostly stays in a small courtyard to practice. This is a respected old master who helps him follow The old man who came to the academy was a practitioner and was willing to teach Lin Shouyi everything he could. Not only did he explain to him the many subtleties of the "Langlang Book on the Clouds" that Lin Shouyi carried with him, but he also brought it to the small courtyard. There were a few fairy secrets from his own collection, and Lin Shou casually browsed through them. Whenever the old master had time, he would come to the small courtyard and answer Lin Shou's puzzles.
One old and one young. Although they do not have the name of master and disciple, they are actually master and disciple.
In addition to studying boring classics, Lin Shouyi focused more on pure practice.
Isshin asked.

In the cold autumn, there was a little girl in the academy. She just changed her thin red dress into a thicker one. , As for the cotton-padded jacket, it is not needed yet.
She would still often go to the tall trees on the top of Dongshan Mountain alone, sit there in a daze, or eat some pastries to satisfy her craving. She would sit on a branch with a book and recite, so as not to be punished by her husband for copying again the next day. Fortunately, when she had a little free time, she would prepare the copy of the articles needed for the master's punishment in advance. The stacks were stacked neatly, and she was already studying. She has accumulated a lot.
So she now has the nickname "Book Copying Girl" in Shanya Academy.
Today, Li Baoping was dangling on the tree, counting his fingers and counting how long it had been since he had been separated from his junior uncle.
It’s been so long, why hasn’t Junior Uncle come yet?
Li Baoping’s eyes were a little dark.
Haha, since it has been so long, does it mean that the next time we meet is close?
Li Baoping was happy again.
So the little girl in red stood up and jumped on the branches, trying to keep herself high and look far away. Maybe by accident, the little uncle was already standing at the foot of the mountain. Woolen cloth?
Click.
Li Baoping fell to the ground, covered in dust.
Thanks to his rich experience, he knew how to make the fall less painful. In the end, Li Baoping was not injured, but he was covered in soreness and bruises, that was for sure.
The grinning girl quickly looked around and found that no one saw her embarrassment, so she staggered down the mountain.
Many people took the initiative to say hello to her along the way, and Li Baoping agreed to go there one by one.
After returning to the school building, he had nothing to do and started copying books again. Li Baoping glanced at the "family belongings" on the desk and smiled brightly. Hey, next time the junior uncle will come. In the capital of the Sui Dynasty, she could skip school for ten days. Afterwards, her husband would settle the accounts after autumn, so she would move out of this bookstore to him.
The more Li Baoping thought about it, the smarter he felt. He was skillfully copying books with a pen in one hand, holding out his thumb with the other hand, his eyes shining, and he said: "As expected of the leader of the martial arts alliance, you are so domineering. !”

After receiving a letter on Luoluo Mountain in Longquan County, the boy in Tsing Yi who rarely went out went first. The town replied a letter, full of confidence, and then went to Piyun Mountain for the first time to find Wei Bo at the Beiyue Hall of Dali.
But after returning to the Bamboo House, the girl in the pink skirt found that he was not very interested. Although she didn't know what he wanted, it probably didn't go well.
The boy in Tsing Yi didn't want to complain to her. He just sighed alone on the cliff. Soon he became more motivated and went down the mountain to visit the small town, the county government and the kiln superintendent's office. , they all had the courage to go shopping, and they were very sick when they came back. Two days later, they went to the newly built Longquan County outside the mountains in the north to find the county governor Wu Yuan.
The girl in the pink skirt was confused by the busyness of the boy in green.
Although he is usually not serious, she knows that he is arrogant and arrogant. When meeting the Mountain God of Wei, he will be very flattering, but after flattering him, he will turn around and spit, let alone Magistrate Yuan, Governor Cao or Governor Wu.
The girl in the pink skirt couldn't help but ask. He only said that you, a girl, know nothing about movies. Then he moved a bamboo chair and sat alone on the edge of the cliff.
Finally one day, the boy in Tsing Yi started to walk with wind and swagger again.
The girl in the pink skirt was afraid that he would find her annoying again, so she couldn't bear to ask. The boy in green was in a good mood this time and took the initiative to move two bamboo chairs under the eaves. He crossed his legs and ate melon seeds. The girl in the skirt thought to herself, maybe she is stupid, right?
The boy in Tsing Yi was in high spirits and said with a smile: "The task entrusted to me by Brother Water God has been completed! I have already sent a letter to Huangtingguo Yujiangshui Temple!"
< /p>The girl in pink skirt said in astonishment: "Then what does the God of River Water want you to do?"
The boy in green clothes grinned and said: "Isn’t it that Huang Tingguo has become a vassal state of Da Li? Brother Water God heard that I was prospering in Da Li and wanted me to help him build a bridge. In addition to ensuring that the Water Temple is not demolished, it is best to Being able to get him and Da Li a piece of peace and quiet card, this trivial matter, is nothing, isn't this a success? ! ”
It turns out that the Yujiang Water God sent a letter from Huang Tingguo, asking him to do something. The boy in Tsing Yi promised with all his heart, and he was very confident in the letter. He said a lot of big words, so don’t worry, Brother Water God. , some trivial things, not worth mentioning, waiting for the good news from him.
The girl in the pink skirt complained in her heart, trivial things? What's the point?
Besides, how can you say that you are prosperous here in Longquan, even if you practice diligently, just to be beaten to death by two punches? p>
I guess every time I have the courage to go down the mountain, I am afraid.
The girl in the pink skirt asked softly: "Did Mountain God Wei help you solve it?
The face of the boy in green changed slightly, his smile was a little forced, and he pretended to be heroic: "Of course, Wei Bo and I have no relationship, we are so familiar, we call each other brothers every day, this is a small thing I'm just busy. How could Wei Bo dare to say no? It was the first time I went to Piyun Mountain to visit Beiyuedian. It was just that Old Wei was out for business. You didn't know that the auxiliary spirit of Shanyuedian was so polite to me. I was treated to a banquet at the table, but I said no, but they dragged me and refused to let me go down the mountain. Alas, I was so worried..."
The girl in the pink skirt didn't say anything.
< /p>She just didn't want to expose the truth, after all, he was so obsessed with face.
The boy in green was talking with saliva and brows, but at the end, he lost his energy. He was so angry that he simply stopped talking and ate melon seeds silently.
When they met for the second time, Wei Bo indeed nodded and agreed. As Beiyue Zhengshen, he spoke to the Dali court to help him. The water god brother of Yujiang asked for two amulets, but he paid a small price in exchange for them.
Chen Pingan gave them to him. A high-quality snake gallstone.
The boy in green was in pain, but he had no regrets.
He suddenly laughed and stretched out his hand, pointing to the south. , "Stupid girl, when you get to Yujiang later, I will take you to the mansion of my water god brother, have a big bowl of wine and eat a big piece of meat, so that you can teach you how popular I am there!" Just because I took you there, everyone will respect you! ”
The girl in pink skirt was speechless.
But she accidentally caught a glimpse of hisHis face was full of energy, but he couldn't bear it. He said softly: "Okay, remember not to eat big fish or meat. I will just eat some seasonal delicacies."
The boy in Tsing Yi laughed loudly. Laughing, "What's the problem? It's all a matter of my words!"
The two began to fall silent.
He suddenly said: "If the master is in the mountain, I should be able to run less, right?"
The girl in the pink skirt hummed gently There was a sound.

On the mountain in the west, Dong Shuijing’s wonton stall has become more and more popular. The better, the better. The faithful men and women who come to the mountain temple to burn incense all like to come here to have a bowl of food to relieve fatigue and fill their stomachs. They kill two birds with one stone. As the business grew, the stall became too small, so Dong Shuijing simply built a shop. In this way, Even in bad weather, customers can come in and have a meal while waiting for the rain to stop. Moreover, this young man is easy to talk to. Even if he doesn't pay for wontons, he just uses the shop as a pavilion to rest. Not only does he not drive away people, but he also lets the newly hired people Two shop assistants brought a bowl of hot tea.
The store's expenses have increased, but the price of each bowl of wontons has not increased and the taste has remained the same.
In fact, several officials from Longquan County came over after hearing the news. For example, Wu Yuan, the prefect with the biggest official hat, all ate a bowl of fragrant wontons at the shop and were full of praises. .
In the dusk that day, the shop was about to close, and the waiters were waiting for a few tables of customers. It was rare for Dong Shuijing to take a break from the busy work. After a hard day's work, he was exhausted, so he sat at the door of the shop and held his hand. I had a bowl of tea and drank it slowly.
Dong Shuijing stood up suddenly, drank the rest of the tea quickly, and walked quickly. A group of people walked down the mountain, including a familiar face. She should have been climbing with her elders in the family. Burning incense, I just came down the mountain now. Looking at the sky, I will probably stay in Longquan County.
Dong Shuijing said hello with a smile, looked at the ages with the adults, called uncle and aunt, then looked at the slightly taller girl and asked: "Shi Chunjia , when did you come back?"
Now the little girl no longer wears braids.
Shi Chunjia followed Li Baoping, Dong Shuijing and the others on a thrilling short journey. After returning to the town, these children were divided into three groups, each going their own way. choose.
Li Baoping, Li Huai and Lin Shouyi followed Chen Pingan to study in Sui Dynasty. Dong Shuijing stayed in the town and went to school for a while, but soon left. He kept one of the two ancestral houses in the town and sold the other. Not only did he buy a high-class mansion half a street in the county town, but the remainingWith the money as capital, he started business alone. Only Shi Chunjia sold the ancestral shop in Qilong Lane and moved to the capital of Sui Dynasty with her family. I don’t know if she returned to her hometown this time to worship her ancestors or something.
Shi Jiachun’s parents had only heard of Dong Shuijing, but had never seen it. Seeing that their daughter was thinking about it, they took advantage of the situation and asked for a few bowls of wontons. Dong Shuijing cooked it himself. After handing it to the table in person, he exchanged a few pleasantries and returned to the counter. After Shi Jiachun finished eating, he got up and ran to Dong Shuijing, asking in a low voice if there was any news about the treasure bottle. Dong Shuijing could only tell some things that Chen Ping'an had said. , retelling it again, Shi Jiachun pricked up his ears, unwilling to miss a word.
Dong Shuijing looked around and saw that the wontons there were almost finished. He seemed to ask casually: "Are you going to stay when you come back this time?"
< /p>Shi Jiachun nodded and said: "I heard that the new school here was founded by the Chen family in Longwei Xi, so my grandfather asked me and my parents to come back. Anyway, the shop was sold, but the ancestral home is still there. There is a place to live."
Dong Shuijing nodded.
In the end, Shi Jiachun and the others still collected the money, but it was just less copper coins per bowl than usual.
Shi Jiachun is a girl with a straightforward personality. Seeing that this guy Dong Shuijing dared to accept money, she glared at this classmate who was looking for money.
Dong Shuijing smiled slightly and didn't take it seriously.
Watching them leave, knowing that there will be many opportunities to meet in the future.
When doing business, when an acquaintance comes to visit, you must not kill the acquaintance, but you cannot not charge money. No profit or loss is the best.
Otherwise, the more you do business, the less friends you will have.
You lose money again and again, and that person likes to come to your door from time to time, proving that the other person does not regard you as a friend.
When you make more than usual every time, it becomes even more clear that you have never regarded that person as a friend at all. If so, it would be refreshing.
If it is the former, it will be worrying.
Determined that there would be no more customers, the two shop assistants were exhausted. Dong Shuijing made two large bowls of wontons for each of them. Watching them devouring them, Dong Shuijing looked towards the shop. It was night outside, and then I saw a man crossing the threshold with a long sword hanging across his back.
The Mohist hero Xu Ruo, who had just returned to Longquan County Ferry from Old Dragon City, found this place directly, smiled at the tall young man and asked: "I have already heard about her news. I'll tell you if it's illegal, so have you made your decision now?"
Dong Shuijing nodded.
SinceShe is already a fairy, and she can no longer live like this.
If you become a loaner, you can live for decades or even hundreds of years.
No matter whether he can get together with that girl in the end, it is always good to see her a few more times.

A little devil named Gu appeared in Shujian Lake.
The name is Gu Can, and he is a close disciple of Qingxia Island Jiejiang Zhenjun Liu Zhimao. He is actually able to control a dragon with strength comparable to the peak of Jindan. The previous bloody battle between the same sect, that The dragon killed Qingxia Island with corpses all over the ground. What was even more strange was that Liu Zhimao did not stop him from the beginning to the end. Even though the eldest disciple was bitten to death by the beast, he still did not show up.
If it had stopped here, Little Devil Gu’s illustrious reputation would not have spread to Shujian Lake, the largest water area in Aquarius Continent. The reason is that after that, the blue waves of Shujian Lake Above, there is often a seemingly innocent child wandering around. At first, some Qi practitioners mistakenly thought that the child had used water control and water avoidance techniques to be able to stay still without moving his feet. Swimming on the lake.
Generally speaking, it is always a matter of course.
But one time, something terrible happened. More than 20 young Qi practitioners who had good relationships with each other took a huge boat and went out on a lake together. Suddenly they met the child, and they faced each other. Neither one wanted to give way, and a conflict broke out.
When the two sides were about to collide, the child with his arms folded across his chest suddenly rose up. It turned out that he was stepping on a huge dragon. The ship was intercepted in the middle. The Qi practitioners who first tried to use the wind to escape from the sunken ship were hit by the beast's spray of water. After being rushed past, only their skeletons were left. As for those who were reduced to drowned rats, they were clawed one by one. It would disembowel them, and those who were less lucky would be put into its big mouth to chew.
All weapons and magical powers hit it without any pain or itching. It didn't even bother to dodge. The most miserable person was a "smart man" who tried to capture the thief first. , he was a sword cultivator with a high status, and he was slightly famous in Shujian Lake where many heroes gathered. He used his natal flying sword to assassinate the child standing on the top of the dragon's head.
The dragon, which had always been playful and playful, immediately became extremely violent. He controlled the lake water around his body and set off huge waves, trapping the sword cultivator in a square square of clear water. In the cage, I don't know what kind of secret method the beast used to suck out all the air, allowing the sword cultivator's spiritual energy to dry up and his body to explode and die.
There was a loud bang.
That prison was filled with blood.
It looks like a huge flower blooming.
The child sat cross-legged on top of the dragon, laughing.
Some Longmen realm monks and Jindan realm bosses who came quickly were frightened when they saw this scene at close range. The previous internal strife on Qingxia Island was far away. Moreover, at that time, the beast did not show magical powers similar to those of the Qi Practitioner. Today, only a hundred feet away, I saw that the beast seemed to have awakened and understood the magical power of his life. If the records in the ancient books about the Jiaolong clan are not wrong, wouldn't it only be a hundred feet away? The ruler goes one step further, is it the veritable Earth Immortal Dragon? Being able to transform into human form, in the ancient times when dragons flourished, I am afraid that I would be qualified to have a dragon palace in the middle of the river.
This group of famous monks from Shujian Lake were still lucky at first and wanted to secretly save one or two disciples. The monk gently waved his claws at the beast, and a huge claw mark appeared on the old monk's body dozens of feet away, which was blown up in the air.
In a fight between monks in the middle and fifth realms, even if they are separated by one or two realms, there is definitely not much suspense about the outcome, but generally there will be no such judgment of life and death.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. In the end, no one saved the sect disciples who fell into the water. They chose to protect themselves wisely and retreat quickly.
After that, some people sneaked into Qingxia Island and tried to assassinate the demon Gu Can, but they were all killed one by one by Liu Zhimao, the Lord Jiejiang. Within half a year, five people came one after another. Six assassination attempts were all stopped by Qingxia Island. Half a year later, with Liu Zhimao as the leader and Gu Can and that beast as the main force, they attacked the island sects where the assassins were located. Without exception, only some with acceptable monastic qualifications were selected. The boys and girls, and the rest, were all executed, scraped three feet off the ground, and collected all the treasures and magic weapons. For a time, Qingxia Island vaguely became the master of the Shujian Lake archipelago. Those who followed it prospered, and those who went against it perished.
Now Gu Can and his mother live in one of the most splendid mansions on Qingxia Island. Several times, master and apprentice teamed up to destroy the sect mountain. After the war ended, Gu Can He would ask the senior sister who had tipped him off to help him select some young beauties with outstanding looks as candidates for the future "cardigan ladies", and also specially hired someone to teach them how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Today, it was rare for Gu Can not to go out for fun. He accompanied his mother to the back hall, knelt respectfully on the futon, kowtowed to a memorial tablet and offered incense.
The woman has been pampered over the years, and her appearance and figure have become more plump and attractive.
After the woman stood up, she closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and murmured softly, as if she was reporting peace to her dead husband.
Gu Can stood in the solemn and silent lobby, looking up at the curling incense in front of him. The child, whose hands had been stained with countless blood, was speechless.
The two of them crossed the threshold together, and Gu Can suddenly called her mother.
The woman holding Gu Can's little hand looked down and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
Gu Can forced out a smile. , shook his head and said it was okay.

In the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom, there was a hungry, skinny little boy The girl, with shabby clothes and cold eyes, walked carefully to Qinghefang, a place where powerful people gathered, and came to the back door of a luxurious mansion by familiar routes. The sun was scorching hot, and the skinny and dark little girl was sweating profusely, but her expression Still cold, squatting in the shade of a big tree, she looked up and saw the scorching sun in the sky. The brightness made her eyes shed tears.
She silently withdrew her gaze and wiped her tears.
Soon the back door of the house was secretly opened, and through the narrow crack in the door, a man of about the same age as the skinny girl slipped out. Daughter of gold, gorgeously dressed, she held a small wooden box with some difficulty, sweating profusely, trotted all the way to the skinny girl, and said with a bright smile: "A gift for you."
In the scorching heat of midsummer, the small wooden box has some water stains seeping out.
The skinny girl frowned and took the wooden box, held it in her arms, and pushed open the lid with one hand.
The beautiful little girl opposite laughed happily, "Do you still remember, we built this snowman together last winter, and I asked my family to put it in the ice cellar, deliberately I gave it to you today, do you like it?"
The skinny little girl lowered her head and stared at the little snowman, unable to see her expression clearly.
The beautiful girl who came out of the noble family was still asking for credit, innocently asking if she liked it.
The skinny little girl slowly raised her head and asked: "Where is the food?"
The pretty girl oops and apologized: "Sorry, "I forgot."
She cried sadly and kept apologizing, "I will go to the temple with my parents to burn incense and pray for blessings soon. I can't bring you anything to eat today. I'm sorry..."
The skinny little girl twitched her lips, lowered her head and glanced at the little snowman in the small wooden box.
A snap.
The wooden box "accidentally" fell onon the ground.
The beautiful little girl was about to cry and hurriedly knelt down.
The skinny little girl also squatted down, and just reached out to pick up a stone at the base of the wall. She looked at the little snowman broken in half in the wooden box, and then she stood tall He raised his hand and hit the girl in beautiful clothes hard.
A breeze blew by.
When the beautiful little girl raised her head, smiled, and wanted to say it was okay to her good friend, she was surprised to find a stranger in front of her, wearing a beautiful snow-white robe. , still carrying a sword, and a small vermilion gourd hanging on her waist. The little girl blinked her watery eyes, turned her head slightly, and looked at the dark and skinny little girl, full of questions.
I found my good friend being held by that person.
The guy with the sword on his back smiled and pointed to her in the direction of the back door and said, "Go home first. Look, someone is waiting for you."
Sure enough, the housekeeper, Grandpa Zhao, has already arrived. The beautiful little girl is holding the small wooden box, hesitant, not knowing whether to give it to her playmate or take it home and hide it in the ice cellar.
Fortunately, the stranger made the decision for her again, "Take it back. It's a pity that you can't keep it outside. You can wait until it snows this winter before taking this The little snowmen piled up into big snowmen."
The little girl nodded vigorously, hugged the small wooden box, and said goodbye to her good friend who had known her for nearly two years.
The skinny little girl remained silent.
When the door closes.
Chen Pingan let go of the little girl's hand. He found it unbelievable to this little lunatic. The two children had a good relationship, but they wanted to kill each other just because they didn't bring food. ?
Chen Pingan looked down and asked: "Who are you?"
The little girl raised her head and asked: "You care about me? ”
