Chapter 404: Yearning for it

Cui Dongshan casually put down the pair of chopsticks, lowered his head, placed the two chopsticks neatly, raised his head, and said with a smile: "It seems that you are sure that I will not go on a killing spree here?"

Cui Dongshan clapped his hands and laughed, and stood up slowly, "You made the right bet. I really won't kill indiscriminately because of my temper. After all, I have to return to the Cliff Academy. That's all, my descendants will have their own blessings. As an ancestor, I can only help you here."

Cai Jingshen stretched out his hand to signal Cui Dongshan to sit back and asked: "How can you prove that your words are effective in the Sui Dynasty and in the country. Does it work just like the Dali Temple?"

Cui Dongshan leaned lazily on his chair, stretched out his hand to play with his bun, and twisted it gently, "It's hard to prove."

Cai Jingshen. He had no choice but to take a step back, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Then how do you extract Cai Feng, and it must be the kind that leaves no consequences and will not affect his future career? I must remind you that Cai Feng cannot be removed. Feng Lin changed sides in battle and betrayed his friends for glory. This would hinder Cai Feng's path to becoming a god after his death. Cai Feng would be closely related to Zuo, Wen Yun and Feng Shui in the Sui Dynasty for hundreds of thousands of years. He did such disgusting things. During his lifetime, Cai Feng It is not difficult to be honored, but you will be rejected by the incense of the Sui Dynasty after death."

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "The mountain people have their own tricks, don't worry, I guarantee that Cai Feng was appointed to the six ministers, except the Ministry of Rites. This position is too important. I am not the Emperor of Great Li. As for after my death, how about becoming the Lord of the Chenghuang Pavilion of a large state within a hundred years, except for the Longxing Land of Gao Family's Geyang?"

Cai Jingshen? He asked tentatively: "What about the choice and reputation of our Cai family?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "When the time comes, I will let you and the Cai family cooperate in two painful schemes, and everyone will raise their eyebrows at you, Cai Jingshen." Thumbs up, future history books will definitely contain good words."

Cai Jingshen hesitated to speak.

Cui Dongshan sneered and said: "Are you and I signing a landscape covenant with the earthly immortals? Cai Jingshen, I advise you not to do this."

Cai Jingshen thought of the pair of erected His golden pupils were filled with horror. Although he and the Cai family were being slaughtered and felt aggrieved, compared to the unbearable consequences, Cai Feng alone would drag the entire family into an abyss, and even affect the cultivation of his ancestor. The current depression is not unbearable.

Now that we have become a temporary ally.

Cai Jingshen wanted to express some sincerity, "When Mr. Cui was assassinated in the academy, he was assassinated with a gold thread and escaped with a death talisman. Didn't Mr. Cui want to know who was behind the scenes? Or did he? Say you think they are actually a group of people?"

Cui Dongshan looked askance at Cai Jingshen.

Cai Jingshen felt uncomfortable and didn't understand what he said wrong.

Cui Dongshan stood up and took a bottle of unopened cellar wine from the table, "I was so bored in the academy that I almost wanted to hang myself on the top of the mountain. I finally waited for such an interesting thing. Look at me. What did I do afterwards? After waiting for a long time, I didn’t see them continuing to attack and assassinate me. I had no choice but to run to Qingxiao Crossing and stretch my neck. The result was that I was stunned.No one dared to take action, so I had no choice but to move several large cars back to the academy to lay the floor. Whatever the price was, I would pay as much as Xiaoshu's money. Why? I am grateful to them for relieving my boredom. In order to deal with the second assassination, I have planned so many back-up tactics. Although I have no chance to use them, the process of using my brain can still pass the boring time. "

Cui Dongshan walked around the table and patted Cai Jingshen on the shoulder, "Xiao Cai, you are still too young to know my temper. If we get along for a long time in the future, you will find that we know each other well." Ancestors. If you have time to go to your ancestral graves and take a look, there will definitely be billowing smoke. If any ancestors of the Cai family entrust you with dreams in the near future and express their gratitude to me with tears and snot in their noses, you can tell them that there is no need to thank me. They are always kind and charitable. I have always been this person. The foundation of human knowledge. ”

Cai Jingshen turned a deaf ear with a straight face.

The ox monster, which belongs to the earth ox, had already gone to the "cattle pen" to rest.

Wei However, Xian stayed at the wine table where Cui Dongshan and Cai Jingshen were sitting, saying nothing and just drinking.

Wei Xian followed Cui Dongshan to their residence.

Two seats later, Cui Dongshan used the golden flying sword to draw a thunder pool to isolate Cai Jingshen from prying eyes.

Cui Dongshan kicked off his boots, sat cross-legged on the chair, and asked with a smile: "Come and help. Declare the conclusion in one or two sentences.

Wei Xian said slowly: "The bird that flies high dies due to delicious food." Fish in deep springs die on fragrant bait. ”

In Wei Xian’s view, Cai Jingshen and his ilk are worth mentioning.

Under the general trend, the torrent is rolling, even if it is a Nascent Soul Immortal, still a mantis as a chariot

Before entering the city, Cui Dongshan showed Wei Xian a lot of intelligence about the inside story of the Sui Dynasty, and the conspiracy of Cai Feng in the capital. Compared with the old worship of Cai Jingshen by the Gao family. The secrets hidden by oneself are just trivial things.

The Gao family of the Great Sui Dynasty was able to join forces with the Lu family to suppress the rise of the Great Li who owned the national master Cui Han and Shanya Academy, which delayed it for decades. < /p>

It was not just the foresight of Emperor Gao of the Great Sui Dynasty.

At the beginning of the Great Sui Dynasty, there were experts from the Mo family and the Lu family of the Yin and Yang family who helped build the imitation White Jade Capital. With the Lu family, there were also great monks from various schools of thought, hiding behind the scenes and gesticulating.

Cai Jingshen was a deeply buried and important chess piece.

Don’t look at Cai Jingshen’s timid performance tonight. The situation is completely in the hands of Cui Dongshan. In fact, Cai Jingshen even “resigned out of anger” and moved his family out of the capital. It seemed that he couldn’t bear the humiliation. , it should all be under the instruction of an expert.

Now the Great Sui Dynasty and the Great Li Dynasty have formed the highest-ranking mountain alliance. It seemed that everyone was happy that Piyun Mountain, the northern mountain of the Dynasty, was used as a place for the Mountain Alliance to worship heaven and earth. The Sui Dynasty did not have to face the Great Li cavalry and had a good opportunity to recuperate for more than a hundred years. It just ceded the Huangting Kingdom and these Pingfan vassals. And Dali can preserve the realWith all his strength, he went south with all his strength and reached the border of Zhu Ying Dynasty with overwhelming force.

But behind the scenes, the Song family of Da Li and the Gao family of Da Sui naturally had their own thoughts.

Especially after the death of Emperor Song Zhengchun of the Great Li, even though the Great Li Central Committee kept it secret, I believe that the Sui people might have noticed it, so they were ready to take action.

Although the Great Li cavalry is now unstoppable and covers half of Aquarius Continent, it is not stable. Once the backyards of Great Li and Great Sui catch fire at the same time, coupled with the sudden outbreak of the Guanhu Academy and the Zhuying Dynasty, With strength, the seemingly promising chess game of Da Li will be instantly slain by the dragon. At that time, the entire northern territory trampled and crushed by Da Li's iron cavalry will be justified in the eyes of the boss behind the scenes who struck back and won. Big fat meat that you put in your mouth.

Cui Dongshan's trip to Wei Xian frankly had no purpose. It varied from time to time. Whether it was to recruit, to suppress and kill, or to serve as bait, it just depends on how Cai Jingshen responded.

Wei Xian did not dare to say that Cui Dongshan would definitely be able to defeat those top figures behind the scenes.

But Cai Jingshen is definitely not a problem and will only be teased and applauded by Cui Dongshan.

That’s why Wei Xian said that birds and fish are greedy for food.

Cui Dongshan shook his head. Cui Dongshan stretched out his fingers and wrote the same sixteen words in the air.

If the tiger underestimates its power, it will be attacked. If the raccoon shrinks its body, there will be something to take.

Wei Xian frowned and said: "The Sui Dynasty really wants to tear up the alliance and make a desperate move. Does it mean he wants to replace Da Li?"

Cui Dongshan laughed and pointed at himself.

Wei Xian was stunned and clasped his hands, "The Imperial Master is far-sighted and far-sighted." Master, I always feel that you, the founding emperor of the Nanyuan Kingdom, are taking advantage of me."

Wei Xian sighed: "The small Nanyuan is just a place with several states in Dali, and there were people who were relegated back then. Immortal, I left only a few words, so I ordered the alchemists of Nanyuan Kingdom to go into the mountains to seek seclusion and go to the sea to visit the immortals. However, if you don’t really come to the vast world, you still can’t imagine the real vastness of the world.”

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "There is a very powerful scholar in the Divine Continent of Middle-earth. He once sighed like a drop in the ocean and a mustard seed on the land. If you have a chance in the future, I will take you to meet him. When the time comes, you can sigh like a frog in a well. It will be very suitable." It's time."

Cui Dongshan held the handle of the chair with both hands and shook it, and the chair began to "move". Cui Dongshan seemed to be jolting on a horse, which looked extremely funny.

It’s just that Wei Xian has been accustomed to spending time with Cui Dongshan day and night during this period. Wei Xian and Yu Lu have to adapt to this matter much earlier than Xie Xie.

This is probably the mentality of emperors and crown princes.

Cui Dongshan said slowly: "I told you the answer. Anyway, the people behind the Sui Dynasty and Da Li are competing for their backhand. The life and death of pawns like Cai Feng, and the fate of Cai Jingshen." Flow, surrender or not, can't make waves, so the reason why I stayedZhoucheng, if you don’t go to Jingcheng Academy, it’s not as complicated as you think. My husband loves Xiao Baoping the most. Mao Xiaodong is a man who can't hold back his words. He will definitely tell him about the disgraceful conspiracy of Sui Dynasty. If I bump into it now, I will definitely be angered and scolded for not doing my job properly. "

"If I talk to my husband about the great cause of the country, it will be even more unpopular. Maybe even my husband and his students will not be able to do it. But things still have to be done. I can’t say, sir, don’t worry, the kids like Aquarius Li Huai will be fine. Sir, now the knowledge is becoming more and more complete, from the order of the original intention to the final goal, good or bad, and the progress in the period. The road choices had already taken shape, and it was very difficult for me to deal with my relatively cold-blooded philistine approach to work. ”

“So it’s better for me to hide here, make up for my mistakes, produce real results, help cut off some contacts, and then go to the academy to admit my punishment. The worst I can do is get a beating. It’s better than letting Mr. If I let go, I'm doomed. Once he is determined to have evil intentions, it is difficult for gods to save him. Even if the old scholar comes to plead for mercy, it may not be effective. "

Wei Xian thought for a moment and was about to speak.

Cui Dongshan, who had already moved the chair to the window, turned his back to Wei Xian and waved his hand, "You Wei Xian is currently not qualified to comment on the entanglement between my husband and I, so I will read more and say less. "

Cui Dongshan murmured: "Wu Yuan, the governor of Longquan County, Wei Li of Huangting Kingdom, Liu Qingfeng of Qingluan Kingdom, Wei Liang, the chief governor, and you, Wei Xian, are all our... Among them, you and Wei Liang have the highest starting point, but your future success still depends on your own ability. Wei Liang will not talk about him. Guyun Yehe is not a chess piece in the true sense. It belongs to the complementary nature of the road. But Wu Yuan and Liu Qingfeng were carefully cultivated by him, and you and Wei Li were chosen by me. From now on, the four of you He is here to fight for us. "

The words were a bit cloudy, and Wei Xian silently remembered them in his heart.

Cui Dongshan suddenly slapped the handle of the chair, "That stupid Shi Rou, I guess... I don’t even know now, but the words on the origami paper inside the brochure are words from my heart, sincere words, blood and tears, and are the most precious words of experience from a person who has been through this. Next time we see her in the academy, if she doesn't make any progress, let's see how I deal with her! Huh, Du Mao looks like a fairy. She doesn't have to eat, drink, poop or sleep, so she can endure her nausea. I will make her eat, drink, poop and take a bath several times at once! She also needs to know what a real man is! ”

Wei Xian said goodbye and left.

Cui Dongshan waved his sleeves and removed the restriction of the thunder pool with a circle of golden light.

Wei Xian sincerely admired and awed him. This person.

I admire that Da Li can achieve such a great situation in less than a hundred years from a small vassal country of the Lu Dynasty.

But these are not enough to make Wei Xian feel awe of the national master Cui Chan. When this person was conquering the world, he was thinking very hard about how to defend the country.

Wei Xian felt that this was the only way. It’s a real game of chess

Cui Dongshan is here.After Wei Xian left, he flicked his wrist, took the pot of wine on the table, and took a sip.

During the ups and downs of his travels, he saw too many people and things, read more books, and saw countless mountains and rivers.

During the thrilling March 4th War that year, there was an inconspicuous civil servant who lived and died. There was a sentence that probably no one took to heart, but it has always moved Cui Chan and will be remembered to this day.

"Heaven and earth have given destiny, and life must lead to death. Grass and trees spring and autumn, and their prosperity must wither. This is the law of heaven! You Qi practitioners who disregard the law and care about human life, and the gods on the mountain who treat the people like ants, and How different is that demon clan?"

Cui Dongshan held the wine bottle with his fingers, slumped back on the chair, and murmured to himself, his voice as thin as a mosquito's fly, intermittently: "I was once the banished immortal, What I drink is the spring water brewed by the God of Heaven, and what falls is the colorful clouds in Baidi City... I look at the iron surface and horizontal waves, but I am not satisfied... I am penniless, dining on the clouds and drinking dew, and drinking in the cool breeze. , can withstand the wind, rain, thunder and lightning... The gentleman drunkenly shook his head, held up the empty cup, and asked the gods and people who came first. The boy was wrong, and fell asleep with his head down, but he heard the chirping of insects on the walls, which was in harmony with the chirping of the sir... ...The gentleman took off his clothes and put on the boy's clothes. He stumbled and fell into the shabby hut. He fell asleep on the floor, snoring like thunder, and it was like a dream in the world..."

Cui Dongshan suddenly reached out and scratched his cheek, "It doesn't mean anything. Change it to what? Well, I have it!"

He started singing an unknown folk song, "A toad has one mouth, two toads have four legs, and they jump into the water with a splash. If it doesn’t drink water, it will be a peaceful year. If a toad doesn’t drink water, it will be a peaceful year..."

————

The Cai family’s mansion in the capital.

While the carriages and horses were moving quietly, distinguished friends gathered together, and all the talented people arrived.

Cai Feng, the second-ranked scholar currently serving in the Imperial College, is already considered a distinguished figure.

I never thought that tonight, among the seven or eight people, Cai Feng was the one with the lowest official position.

Guo Xin, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, Tao Jiu, the right minister of the Ministry of War, Miao Ren, the general of Longniu after the founding of the country, Song Shan, the deputy commander of the infantry yamen in charge of public security in the capital...

Most of them The young officials in the capital of the Sui Dynasty were not very old. The elder is like a vulture, only forty-five years old.

Cai Feng is a handsome young man

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

A tall and handsome young man with a magnificent talent, even in the face of these high-ranking officials , still not losing momentum.

This is not only self-reliance on talent and learning, but also related to the surname of this mansion. Cai Jingshen, the ancestor of the Cai family, even if he becomes the butt of laughter again, he is still an old Nascent Soul immortal who has protected the capital of the Sui Dynasty for many years.

Everyone is drinking tea or drinking, and they have already made plans. It is very likely that the future trend of the Sui Dynasty, and even the future trend of the entire Aquarius Continent, will be decided in Cai Mansion tonight.

His Majesty the Emperor will hold a banquet for thousands of old men in half a month. Everything can be done before and after this!

Cai Feng stood up and said loudly: "Study the books of sages and sages so hard that all the people in the mountains and rivers will not be insulted, and the country's surname will be protected from foreign surnames."Above all, we, the scholars, are sacrificing our lives for righteousness, right now! "

Another newly appointed number one scholar who was still in the Hanlin Academy stood up suddenly, threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground, smashed it to pieces, and said in a deep voice: "A son has no two fathers, and a minister has no two kings." It’s better to have broken jade than to have it intact! Most of the thirty-six generals who founded the Sui Dynasty were Confucian scholars! "

The crowd was furious and passionate.

Some people raised their arms and shouted, "Swear to kill the literary demon Mao Xiaodong!" ”

Some people shed tears in sorrow and slapped the handle of the chair again and again with their palms, “How can I, the Sui Dynasty, bow down to the barbarian Song family, cede territory for peace, and be defeated without a fight? What a shame and humiliation! ”

Everyone gradually dispersed.

Cai Feng did not see anyone off, otherwise it would be too eye-catching.

Although Song Shan had made arrangements, there were many people near Cai’s house. The night guard has been cleared, and they are all the confidants of the deputy commander of the infantry army, but it is better to be careful.

Cai Feng was left alone in the lonely banquet room, where the smell of wine still filled the air. .

Cai Feng's eyes are scorching.

Who else can turn the tide?

Miao Ren and the new champion Lang Zhang. Dai Tong left in a carriage.

The two sat opposite each other in the carriage.

Miao Ren felt a little self-deprecating as he looked at the calm-looking young man. A junior at a weak age is so calm that he is worthy of being praised as a young man with the qualities of a prime minister. Together with Li Changying, the future gentleman of the Cliff Academy, Chu Dong of Nanxi, and Cai Feng, he is known as the Four Spirits of the Capital and is the great Sui Dynasty. The leaders of the younger generation, in addition to the four chiefs including Pan Yuanchun, the son of the late general Pan Maozhen, are all general disciples. After the youngest Pan Yuanchun left the academy to join the army on the border, the four chiefs were all there. Marching.

There are eight people in total among the Four Spirits and Four Leaders. After the achievements of the powerful nobles, such as Chu Dong and Pan Yuanchun, there are four people who work hard for the common people, such as Zhang Dai and Li Changying.

Miao Ren knew that there were as many as three young people who were involved in this plan and were destined to have a smooth career.

So Miao Ren felt that there were as many as three of them. All the heroic spirits of Sui Dynasty will protect them and they are done.

Miao Ren opened the car curtain and took a look outside. It was dark and it was still a long time before dawn.

————

On the way back, Chen Ping'an was still thinking about what Lin Shouyi said, but after thinking about it, he didn't feel that he had done anything worthy of Lin Shouyi's gratitude.

If it is said that Li Baoping and Li Huai are obsessed with each other, Chen Ping'an is not surprised at all, my dear,

But Lin Shouyi is different, probably because of his sensitive background, he has always been delicate and extremely considerate. He was independent and ambitious, so it was no surprise to Chen Pingan that he entered the spiritual path early during his studies.

Zhu Lian had a keen intuition and did not go straight back to his guest house, but followed Chen Pingan in. He walked into the house and asked softly: "Is there a situation? ”

NominalThe two masters and servants have developed a tacit understanding through continuous battles to the death.

Chen Ping'an did not hide it from Zhu Lian. After pouring two bowls of wine, he nodded and said: "Master Maoshan told me that someone in the capital of the Sui Dynasty will target the academy students in the near future, hoping to use the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty to hold Qiansou." During the critical period of the banquet, Da Li envoys participated in the grand event. Once something went wrong on the academy side, it could arouse public outrage in the two countries, disrupt the delicate balance, and maybe start a border war. Emperor Gao took the initiative to bow down to the barbarians in his eyes. He was already holding back an evil fire. From the humiliated civil servants and military generals, to the indignant scholar-literary circles, to the confused common people, as long as an opportunity appeared, he would Will..."

Zhu Lian then said: "A single spark has set off a prairie fire, and once it is out of control, the Sui generals will have no way to turn back. Even the Emperor of the Gao family will be forced to tear up the mountain alliance. "

Chen Ping'an said calmly: "I understand these important matters in the court. Seeking benevolence will lead to no resentment. So I would not care about it at first. If I am not in my position, I will not seek political affairs. I will walk with us and bear the responsibility of life and death." The same principle, but it involves Baoping and the others..."

Chen Pingan drank the wine in the bowl and stopped talking.

Zhu Lian was slightly surprised.

What a murderous spirit.

In the heart of the lake, a ferocious aura arose.

Zhu Lian wanted to speak but stopped.

Chen Pingan's face was indifferent, "I know."

Chen Pingan poured a bowl of wine, "The more I practice swordsmanship, the more I will be split into pieces by the swordsman Wei Jin." A sword, and the massacre in Jiaolonggou, I am a timid person who dare not do whatever I want. However, I was seriously injured by Du Mao's sword-swallowing boat, and later, when I met my enemy Li Baozhen, I It became increasingly clear that there was something wrong with my state of mind, and it might even have a lot to do with the fact that my natal porcelain was broken in the first place. In short, it was very troublesome."

Zhu Lian said worriedly. How should the young master deal with it? This seems to involve the heart knot...or the inner demon of the cultivator?"

Chen Pingan raised the wine bowl, touched it with Zhu Lian, and said with a smile: "Read more. "

Seeing Zhu Lian's expression of bewilderment, Chen Ping'an smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not kidding you."

Zhu Lian took a sip of wine and shook his head.

If this is not a joke, is there any joke in the world?

Chen Pingan said softly: "Before I arrived at Donghuashan Academy, I actually started to read the books of accurate sages, intentionally or unintentionally. Why did I read the books of sages in Qingluan Kingdom? It's all up to me. I found that reading only Confucian books did not seem to be completely consistent with some of my unexplained original intentions, and the effect was not very effective. So under Cui Dongshan's suggestion, I wanted to verify each other's Confucian moral articles and the fundamental knowledge of Legalism. Looking back, it was indeed of some use. When I arrived at the Academy, I saw the ruler on the waist of Master Maoshan and the inscriptions on it, it suddenly dawned on me that I was on the right path. I was just confused and relied on intuition before. I actually don’t know where to go,You may not know, but I, Chen Pingan, am most afraid of that..."

Chen Pingan began to formulate his words.

Zhu Lian tentatively said: "Draw your sword and look around at a loss. ”

Chen Ping’an smiled and said: “It’s quite interesting.” As long as I see... someone standing somewhere far away, or at a high place, no matter how far or high, I won't be afraid. "

Chen Pingan wrote lightly on the table with his fingers and said slowly: "The sage has a saying: follow your heart's desires and do not exceed the rules. This is the right medicine. "

Zhu Lian held up the wine bowl, feeling that it was neither drinking nor not drinking.

Chen Pingan laughed and said: "Do you need a reason to drink? Take one! ”

The two of them drank the wine from the bowl.

Chen Ping’an felt that since martial arts training and life and death enemies are the most beneficial to cultivation, he should practice Qi Shi himself to sharpen his character. Is it possible to take pleasure in suffering and use it as a dragon-slaying platform for spiritual practice?

Just like when Zhu Lian punched Pei Qian on the ferry in Chengtian Kingdom, Pei Qian hid. Yes.

Shi Rou is not a pure martial artist. I don’t know why Pei Qian relied on his "instinct" to break through the four realms.

The same thing happened to Zhu Lian. He is not a Taoist and does not understand the horror of the earthly immortals who regard their inner demons as mortal enemies, so they do not understand how high the realm Chen Ping'an seeks

After drinking

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "There is no way, the semi-immortal soldiers are so difficult to serve. "

Zhu Lian looked puzzled.

As for the battle between Ouhua Blessed Land and Ding Ying, Chen Pingan once said it carefully. It was a review of the chess game between the master and servant.

Chen Pingan explained: "The 'Changqi' sword I told you about before, although it is of higher quality, has been broken by most of the restrictions by the boss swordsman, otherwise I I couldn't pull out that sword until I died. As the "Sword Immortal" of the old Longcheng Fu family to apologize, on the one hand they were watching the show and knew that giving me away would mean that the so-called semi-immortal soldiers would be around for a long time. , It’s just useless, and it’s also in line with the rules. They help open all the restrictions, which means that this sword is like a house, without the door key, and it falls into my hands, Chen Ping’an. It can be used, if you are not careful. If it falls into the hands of others, you can still enter and exit the mansion freely, but it is an act with ulterior motives.

Chen Pingan stretched out his hand and grabbed the sword on the bed. "I have been using the small refining method to peel off those secret techniques. The progress is slow. I probably need to join the martial arts." Only in the seven realms can all the restrictions be broken one by one and used freely, like an arm and a finger. If you pull it out now, you will kill one thousand enemies and damage yourself eight hundred. It is best not to use it unless it is absolutely necessary. ”

Zhu Lian suddenly understood, took a sip of wine, and then said slowly: "Li Baoping, Li Huai, Lin Shouyi, Yu Lu, thank you. All five of them are from Dali. It is of little significance to assassinate Yu Lu. Xie Xie has identified himself as a remnant of the Lu family. Although he was once a Taoist genius in the residence of the greatest immortal family of the Lu family, this identity determines that Xie Xie is not worthy enough. The first three are all from Lizhu Cave Heaven, and even more so. Among the direct disciples who were carefully taught by the teacher in the past, Xiao Baoping and Li Huai are the best. One of the family ancestors is already Da Li worshiping Yuanying, and one father is the great master of the end. If anything goes wrong with any one of them, Da Li will Neither of them would give up, one was unwilling and the other did not dare."

Chen Ping'an did not mention Li Xisheng's matter to Zhu Lian, so Zhu Lian said "dare not" to his father, Li Er. Li Huai.

Li Xisheng used his Sixth Realm Qi Practitioner cultivation to confront an Innate Sword Embryo Nine Realm swordsman in Mubo Alley, and his defense was watertight and he did not fall behind at all.

After that, he drew talismans on the bamboo tower of Luo Luo Mountain, with thousands of words, which caused the entire Luo Luo Mountain to sink.

In fact, these are not important.

For Chen Pingan.

Li Baoping’s own safety is the most important thing.

Chen Pingan poured another bowl of wine for Zhu Lian, "Why do you feel that if you follow me, you will never have a stable life?"

Zhu Lian drank heavily and wiped the corners of his mouth. He smiled and said: "Master, if you had entered the Lotus Flower Blessed Land earlier and met the old slave in his most prosperous time, you wouldn't have said that. Life and death have always been a matter of a snap of a finger."

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "The fact that I was able to defeat Ding Ying at that time had something to do with his blind support. If I meet someone who doesn't pay attention to the style of a master like you, I will probably die."

Zhu Lian quickly drank the wine in the bowl, licked his face and stretched out the wine bowl, "Just what I said to the young master, I should drink an extra bowl of fine wine."

Chen Pingan really gave it to Zhu Lian poured another bowl of wine and said with some emotion, "I hope that you and I, whether it is ten years or a hundred years, will often have the opportunity to drink together like this."

Zhu Lian grinned and said: "This What's the problem?"

Chen Ping'an drank a lot tonight, far more than usual.

After the two separated, Chen Ping'an went to Mao Xiaodong's study and talked in detail about refining the natal objects.

In the night.

Chen Pingan walked alone.

————

Before lights out in the school building.

Pei Qian said with a smile: "Sister Baoping, I don't sleep well."

Li Baoping thought for a while, then went to take out the clothes that occupied a bed. The small book mountain was moved and stacked on top of another small book mountain.

The two of them were lying on their own bedding. Li Baoping lay down straight, said the word "sleep", and fell asleep in an instant.

Pei Qian carefully tossed and turned and fell asleep very late.

When I woke up the next day, I found that I was like a rice dumpling, wrapped in a warm quilt padded with corners.. Pei Qian turned around and saw that Li Baoping's bedding was neatly packed, like pieces of tofu cut out by a knife. When Pei Qian thought about how he picked up the bedding casually every time, he thought about it, felt a little guilty, and then Had a comfortable sleep. Keep your spirits up so that you can continue to fool that stupid Li Huai and the two guys who are even dumber than Li Huai today.

As for the arm-wrestling with Li Baoping, Pei Qian thinks that he will wait until he is as old as Li Baoping. Anyway, he is young and it will not be embarrassing to lose to Li Baoping.

Next year I will be twelve years old, and Li Baoping will be thirteen years old. Naturally, he is still one year older than her, and Pei Qian doesn't care. Next year after next year, there are so many next years, which is pretty good.

Li Baoping went to find Chen Pingan early in the morning after getting up. There was no one in the guest house, so he rushed to the courtyard of Lord Maoshan.

Wait at the door.

As a Confucian saint who was in charge of the academy, Mao Xiaodong could have a thorough understanding of the academy as long as he wanted to, so he had no choice but to tell Chen Pingan that Li Baoping was waiting outside.

Chen Ping'an left the study and went to take Li Baoping back to the study. On the way, he said that he would visit the capital of the Sui Dynasty, but he couldn't do it today.

After Li Baoping learned that Chen Pingan would stay in the academy for at least a few months, he was not in a hurry. He just thought about going to some places he had never been before today, otherwise he would bring Pei Qian with him first. , but Chen Pingan suggested that he take Pei Qian to visit the academy today, and take Pei Qian to visit all the famous places in Donghua Mountain such as Confucius Hall, Library and Feiniao Pavilion. Li Baoping thought it was okay, and before he could reach the study, he ran away in a hurry, saying that he wanted to have breakfast with Pei Qian

Mao Xiaodong smiled and said: "You have to worry about being assassinated when you go out, but you can't bear to let Li Baoping down. Don't you think it's troublesome?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: " "I'm very hesitant."

Mao Xiaodong asked: "Don't ask me, do I know who the powerful people of the Sui Dynasty are planning this matter?"

Chen Pingan shook his head, "Even this academy is still the land of the Sui Dynasty."

"The most important thing now is your refining."

Mao Xiaodong waved his hand, "Cui Dongshan He’s full of shit, but there’s a saying that’s quite human: Our academy’s foundation, wealth, life, and knowledge only depend on one line of words.”

Mao Xiaodong stood up and walked slowly. "Buddhists say that if you let go of your attachments, you will no longer suffer from all kinds of suffering in this life. This is a great freedom. Taoism pursues purity. Suffering is like a flying boat flying through the void. It is a true freedom to avoid the world as early as possible. We are the only ones. Confucianism, facing difficulties, people in the world are suffering in this life, and they cannot escape. On the road, books of sages, like lanterns, guide people.

Chen Ping'an couldn't help but said softly: " Although there are thousands of people, I will go. "

Mao Xiaodong stopped, deeply convinced, and sighed: "This is exactly the truth! ”

In just two hours, Li Baoping took Pei Qian through the academy. If it weren’t forExplain patiently to Pei Qian, and Li Baoping can solve it in an hour.

In the end, Li Baoping took the towering tree to the top of Dongshan Mountain, climbed up the branches one after another, took Pei Qian high up and looked into the distance, and then stretched out his fingers to pray for Pei Qian. Qian told about the interesting and delicious places in the capital of the Sui Dynasty. She listed all the treasures from her family, and she was so bold that it was like...the whole capital was her courtyard.

Pei Qian took a peek at Li Baoping.

You can imagine that Sister Aquarius, dressed in a red skirt or red cotton jacket, has been standing here all these years, waiting for her junior uncle.

The two of them sat on a branch. Li Baoping took out a red handkerchief and opened it to find two soft and glutinous pastries, each of them nibbling one at a time.

Pei Qian said that she could just go shopping by herself in the afternoon.

Li Baoping nodded in agreement and said that in the afternoon, an old master from outside the academy had a great reputation and was said to have an even louder tone. He was coming to the academy to give lectures. He was an exegesis master of a certain Confucian classic. Since the young master She had something to do today and didn't have to go to the capital for a stroll, so she wanted to go and hear whether the old master from the far south was really that knowledgeable.

Pei Qian, who didn't even know what exegesis was, asked timidly: "Sister Baoping, do you understand?"

Li Baoping nodded and shook his head: "I copied it. In fact, they are all mentioned in the books, but I have a lot of questions that I can't figure out. The gentlemen in the academy either try to persuade me not to aim too high, saying that Li Changying from the academy comes to ask questions, but it's not much of a problem. Even if they tell me now, I can't listen. I understand, but I don’t quite understand. I didn’t even say it, so how do I know I don’t understand? Forget it, they are masters, I can’t say it like that, so I can only hold these words in my stomach and wallow in them. Some masters are not like Mr. Qi, who can always give me an answer every time, and they are not like my uncle, who tells me what he knows and tells me what he doesn’t know. He didn't understand, so I like to go outside the academy often. You probably don't know that the earliest master of our academy was Mr. Qi, who taught me, Li Huai and Lin Shouyi how to learn. It is said that all knowledge still falls on the word "Xing". How do you interpret the word "Xing"? It has two meanings. One is to travel thousands of miles to increase knowledge, and the other is to integrate and master what you have learned to cultivate yourself, govern your country, and bring peace to the world. , I am still young now, so I can only run around more."

When talking about this, Pei Qian found that Li Baoping frowned a little.

Pei Qian sincerely sighed: "Sister Baoping, you think so much."

Li Baoping saw that Pei Qian hadn't finished the cake yet, so he talked to Xiao He laughed like a mouse gnawing corn, and patted Pei Qian on the shoulder, "Young master uncle, you have so many things to think about."

Li Baoping shook his feet and said seriously: "Cui Dongshan once I have said that one day, my little uncle will meet the girl he likes the most. I can only rank second in my heart. Maybe one day in the future, I will meet someone I like more. , Junior Senior Uncle also ranks second in my heart. I think Cui Dongshan is talking nonsense. Junior Junior Uncle has a girl he likes.I don’t mind, but how could I like someone more than my junior uncle, right, Pei Qian? "

Pei Qian nodded quickly.

Li Baoping was very satisfied with Pei Qian's attitude. He patted her on the shoulder and said sincerely: "From now on, I will follow my uncle to travel around the world. You must keep up your hard work and be more sensible. It's okay to be naughty, but don't be naughty all the time. Let the little uncle work hard. My little uncle, your master, does not fall from the sky. Junior uncle will also have troubles and sad things that require drinking to drown his sorrows, so you have to be more sensible, can you do that? You see, my junior master uncle didn’t even drink alcohol back then, but now he drinks alcohol. This means that you, the founding disciple, have not done enough, right? "

Pei Qian still nodded, sincerely convinced.

As for the small silver gourd and the narrow knife auspicious talisman lent to him, Li Baoping said what his master Chen Pingan and Zhong Kui had said. The general meaning of the words was exactly the same.

At that moment, Pei Qian admitted that there was a reason for Li Baoping to call Chen Pingan his junior uncle.

The two of them had a reason. They slipped down the tree one after another.

Li Baoping rushed away to listen to the foreign master’s lecture. Among the group of old masters and young academy students, Li Baoping was undoubtedly the youngest and the youngest. A flash of bright red, extremely eye-catching.

Pei Qian walked to the school where Li Huai and the other three were leaving.

The three of them were still walking together. >Liu Guan asked: "Ma Lian, tell me, if someone in your family is an official and gets an imperial edict, is it really like what Pei Qian said, that there is so much emphasis on just the placement?" "

Ma Lian nodded vigorously, "There are some small discrepancies, but in general it is what she said. ”

“Also, Pei Qian said that the bed she slept on when she was a child was really that big and could hold so many messy things? "

Ma Lian still nodded, "Yes, my sister has one! "

Liu Guan said helplessly: "Yes, you are indeed a noble princess! So how should we salute next time we meet? Is it enough to give her a big bow? You can't kneel down and kowtow, right? "

Ma Lian looked confused: "His Majesty the Emperor and the prince and princess have been to my home, but I was too young at that time and had no impression at all.

Li Huai said happily: "What's wrong with Your Highness the Princess? She's not Chen Ping'an's apprentice yet. It's okay. When you see her, she will be just like me. We all treat it as a meeting in the world, and we are on equal footing." Give your hand as a gift. "

Liu Guan nodded and said: "That's good. Anyway, she said she is a Jianghu person, so we don't have to lose our status. "

I saw Pei Qian at the door.

The three of them cupped their hands together.

Pei Qian raised his eyebrows and returned the favor with his fists.

Enter the school building.

Pei Qian quickly began to vividly describe a conflict between the river and the lake to the three of them.

A group of desperate thieves sprang out from both sides of the grass. Dozens of sturdy men, armed with swords, guns and clubs, and eighteen kinds of weapons.

The leader, holding a large Xuanhua ax, raised his arm and pointed the ax blade directly at my master. He shouted loudly, with a voice as loud as a thunderbolt from the blue, "I opened this road. If you want to pass on from now on, leave the money to buy your life." ! ’ If you put yourself in my shoes, I would ask you if you are afraid? !

Ma Lian nodded.

Liu Guan chuckled and said: "Anyway, you are protected by your master. We are just mountain bandits and thieves. What are you afraid of?"

Pei Qian crossed his arms and rolled his eyes at Liu Guan, " My master asked, so what if you don't pay? Don't you know how heroic my master was at that time? Even if the mountain wind blows, my master will have the power to "take it from the crowd" even if he doesn't move. The admiral's demeanor is like searching a bag to retrieve something. Looking at the huge number of bandits, they are simply... these juniors, they are just trying to sell Seoul!"

Pei Qian couldn't help but admire him in his heart! I, as expected, those few romance novels about battlefields and rivers and lakes were not in vain, and they came in handy now.

Liu Guan said impatiently: "We have heard a lot about how powerful your master is. His boxing skills are unparalleled and his swordsmanship is invincible. He is a swordsman and a martial arts master. I know all about it. I just want to know. How will things develop next? Is it a bloody battle?" Pei Qian glared and said: "Do you think the people of the world are just reckless and vulgar people? , No matter the level of cultivation, they are all living people! And no one is stupid!"

For the first time, Liu Guan didn't talk back after being scolded.

Pei Qian jumped off the stool and walked to the side. "The leader of the bandit was furious. He picked up a huge ax weighing seventy or eighty kilograms. He became angry and asked my master, 'Boy, what are you doing? Are you tired of living? Don't you want to live anymore?'" Pei Qian jogged a few steps and turned around and said, "I just heard one word from my master Yun Danfeng." The group of thieves were noisy and furious."

Liu Guan and Ma Lian listened attentively.

Li Huai was chewing melon seeds.

He and Chen Ping'an have seen the world, and they have even dealt with ghosts in wedding clothes. He, Li Huai, still doesn't look down on a group of small bandits.

Pei Qian ran forward again, pretending to have a ferocious expression on his face, turned around and said, "Just listen to that guy saying sternly, good boy, do you know how to write the word death?!"

Then Pei Qian immediately used his finger as a pen, wrote the word "death" in the air, turned to the three of them and said: "I did such an action at that time, how about it?"

Ma Lian's eyes were dull.

Liu Guan clapped his hands and applauded.

Pei Qian walked to the table. Ma Lian had prepared tea earlier. She took a sip, moistened her throat, and continued: "The gang of thieves were so angry that they screamed, beat their chests and feet, like The leader was like a drum beating on the battlefield, roaring towards the sky, his eyes widened as big as a bell, and giving orders to the minions, "Brothers, kill this guy who likes to pretend!" That waist knifeThe little girl with the wrong sword, don’t look at her young age, but she is a veteran of the world. Her cultivation is unpredictable and should not be underestimated...'"

Pei Qian suddenly stopped "storytelling".

It turned out that there was a warm hand on his head.

Pei Qian turned his head and smiled bitterly, "Master, you are here. I am talking to Li Huai and the others..."< /p>

Pei Qian wanted to honestly admit that he was talking nonsense.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ping'an had already smiled and said: "Okay, Li Huai and the others are still college students, so don't talk about these Jianghu things. If possible, you can become friends in the future. When Li Huai, Liu Guan and Ma Lian are on their study tours, you can go on study tours with them. Then you can talk to the three of them in detail. "

Pei Qian gave a heavy hum and was very happy.

Chen Pingan asked Li Huai to have dinner with his friends first and then go back to the guest house to find him. Chen Pingan took Pei Qian to find him. Li Baoping.

On the way, Chen Pingan reminded in a low voice: "If you really have the opportunity to go on a study tour with Li Huai and the others, remember one thing: how much martial arts training do you have at that time? You must make it clear to them that you have been through many rivers and lakes. You cannot just brag about yourself, take over everything, and misunderstand them as the so-called rivers and lakes. If you do this, things will easily happen. Do you remember? "

Pei Qian nodded and said: "Remember! "

Chen Ping'an said sternly: "You should take it seriously.

Pei Qian grinned and said, "I will carve every word on the bamboo slips when I turn around!" "

Chen Ping'an was walking on a secluded academy path, feeling something in his heart, and said softly: "Why do you want to travel around the world? It's not just to chase the beautiful scenery, it's not just to practice boxing and martial arts to make yourself happy. Become stronger. I also want to meet more people in the world who are better than myself. ”

“Like me, Master, I saw the hungry Zhang Shanfeng on the Dajiao Mountain ferry, Xu Yuanxia rushing into the ghost house with a chivalrous spirit, and the elder Shushui who appeared in the dilapidated ancient temple. The Sword Master, that seemingly scary but loving ghostly couple, Fan Er from Old Dragon City, Liu Youzhou from the Ape Trap Mansion in Hanging Mountain... Master will also feel ashamed, admired and envied in this way, and even occasionally feel jealous. . "

Pei Qian said in surprise: "Master, will you still do this? "

Chen Pingan rubbed his little head, "What do you think? Master also has seven emotions and six desires, and also has many bad habits. There are always many people who dislike and think poorly of Master. It’s just that when you see a better person, you can’t see it in vain. You must look up to the mountain. Even if you can’t reach it, you are yearning for it...”

Pei Qian’s steps became slower and slower.

Pei Qian laughed and said, "Sister Baoping, she said that her little uncle didn't fall from the sky, but I think the master fell from the sky back then."

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "If you have the ability, tell your sister Aquarius?" "

Pei Qian ran quickly to Chen Pingan, "I'm not stupid!"

He was looking at his master's back before.

Pei Qian suddenly felt a little sentimental.

Hiking the mountains and rivers, a long journey.

They once saw a lot of falling stones on the official mountain road that was muddy after heavy rain.

Pei Qian thought he could just go around it.

But the master would stop in the heavy rain and move stones away from the road.

Under the dark curtain of rain, the master dressed in white is busy.

They also stopped by a long-maintained wooden bridge on the Tea Horse Road. The master looked at the wooden bridge there for a long time, and then ran to the mountains alone, chopped down the big wood, carried it back, and chopped it into pieces. Pieces of planks were replaced with hammers instead of hatchets, and they were used to mend the bridge.
