Unconsciously, summer turns to autumn.
After this period of nourishment, Chen Ping'an used diligence to make up for his weakness, and the two qi palaces where his natal objects were placed were full of spiritual energy.
When it comes to practicing boxing and refining qi, Chen Pingan tries not to favor one over the other. However, as he truly becomes a qigong practitioner, he has to spend at least four hours a day breathing and exhaling. Chen Pingan thinks about the future. With the arrival of the bottleneck, it became increasingly clear that one day, he would need to make another choice to become a pure martial artist in the Seventh Realm, and then to join the Fifth Realm among Qi Practitioners.
Mao Xiaodong joked one day: "When you were practicing in Cui Dongshan's courtyard, I didn't see you caring about the aura of the academy. Why didn't you want to take advantage of any aura at the top of Donghua Mountain? , is it too pretentious?"
Chen Ping'an replied: "After observing the big rules, you can talk about doing as the locals do and human nature. Cui Dongshan, thank you, Lin Shouyi, in this The courtyard can absorb spiritual energy based on its own realm, and the academy assumes that there is nothing wrong with it, so I can naturally do it. This is probably like...the Donghua Mountain outside the courtyard is the vast world, and in this place. The courtyard has become a country and a small world. As long as there is no violation of my heart or Confucian etiquette, I am... free."
Chen Pingan said. You have to do it intermittently, because you often have to think for a moment and stop to think before you continue to speak.
Mao Xiaodong nodded.
It seems that when I was refining things at the top of Donghua Mountain, my well-intentioned words were not in vain.
Mao Xiaodong asked again: "A tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, and a tree that is superior to others will be rejected. What do you think is the truth?"
Chen Pingan replied: "The original intention is to warn gentlemen to hide their clumsiness and adapt to a not so good world. As for what is wrong, I can't say. I just feel that it is far from the world in the minds of Confucians. As for why this is so, I can't even think of it. I understand. And I think there is something wrong with this sentence. It is easy for people to go astray. They are blindly afraid of showing off the trees and not being superior to others. On the contrary, it makes many people think that destroying the showy trees and not being superior is what everyone is doing. Since everyone has done it, I have done it, which is the same as the common people. Anyway, the law does not blame everyone. But once I dig deeper into this matter, it seems to be entangled with what I said, do as the Romans do. Although it can actually be subdivided, depending on the time. It varies from place to place and from person to person, and then I try to clarify the boundaries, but I always feel that it is still very difficult, probably because I haven’t found the fundamental method yet.”
This time, Chen Ping’an still stuttered. So Chen Pingan couldn't help but asked curiously: "Such so-called good words that are highly praised by the world, I don't deny that they can indeed save a lot of hardships. Just like I often use them for self-examination, but they can really be recognized by Confucian sages." For 'rules'?"
Mao Xiaodong laughed but did not give an answer.
Mao Xiaodong then changed the subject, "A white horse is not a horse, what do you think?"
Chen Pingan replied: "Cui Dongshan once said this, saying that it was because the saint was the first When I created the word, it was not complete enough.Good, the road is inevitably incomplete, and it is a "word barrier" brought to the world invisibly. Times have changed, and later generations have created more and more words. It was a problem at the time, but it is easy to solve now. The white horse is naturally a kind of horse, but A white horse is not the same as a horse. Poor ancients could only go around and around on the word "non". According to Cui Dongshan, this is also called "venation barrier". If you don't understand this theory, no matter how many words there are, Still in vain. For example, when someone says one thing is correct, and someone else uses another correct thing to deny the previous correct thing, and when others hear it at first glance and are unwilling to get to the bottom of it and break it into pieces, they will subconsciously think that the former is wrong. This is considered a context disorder. , there are also many partial generalizations, confusion of order, and lack of understanding of the ins and outs. Cui Dongshan was quite angry about this, saying that scholars, even wise men, gentlemen and saints, could not escape this disaster. He also said that all people in the world should learn the most when they are young, and this is the foundation of their lives. , is more effective than any high or low principles. Cui Dongshan even said that at least half of the articles of saints and sages of various schools of thought are 'unclear'. Only those who understand this knowledge are qualified to understand the fundamental knowledge of the sages and sages. Otherwise, ordinary scholars, who seem to study the books of sages diligently, will end up just building a loft in the sky. The Baidi City in this world has no boundaries. "
After Mao Xiaodong chewed it carefully, he smiled and said: "It's not all the words of that little bastard venting his anger, it is still a bit chewy. "
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Cui Dongshan is willing to say, I just listen. After all, Mr. Wen Sheng once said that it is always good for me to think more about everything, even if the final conclusion is reached , still negative, but that seemingly extra journey is actually not an unjust journey. "
Mao Xiaodong clapped his hands and smiled, "Sir, that's brilliant! "
Then Mao Xiaodong looked expectant, hoping that this little junior brother would at least have some understanding.
Chen Pingan suppressed a smile, understood, and said: "Next time if I can see Wen Mr. Sheng, I will talk more about Master Maoshan. "
Mao Xiaodong said softly: "Remember, please don't be subtle. My husband doesn't do this. For example, if I say this, 'Mr. Gao Miao', you will tell the truth as it is, even if you add jealousy. It’s okay, but you must not bend your intestines. "
Chen Pingan said that he had written it down.
Finally, Mao Xiaodong gave Chen Pingan a Feijian letter from Piyun Mountain in Longquan County, Dali.
Mao Xiaodong left.
Some of the people in charge of Shanya Academy were shaken and needed him to calm them down.
Chatting with Chen Pingan from time to time was just a way of showing off. Senior Brother's pretense can be regarded as a way to relax in the busy schedule. Of course, it is also Senior Brother's duty to find out and fill in the gaps regarding Chen Pingan's state of mind.
When Chen Pingan opened it, it was the familiar handwriting of Wei Bo, the God of Beiyue.
Previously, Chen Pingan sent a letter to Wei Bo, asking about the sale of the mountain in the west.
Chen Pingan was concerned about Wei Bo, the earliest and only remaining one. The righteous god of the mountains of Shenshui Country has a natural trust.
Wei Bo told Chen Ping'an in the letter that previously, including the Xu family in Qingfeng City, there were a total of nine hills looking for a new home. Ruan Qiong, Fulu Street Li family and other families had each taken over. There are still two seats left. If Chen Pingan wants it, he can come forward to help negotiate the price. Wei Bo suggested that although the remaining two seats are for others to pick up, in fact, Chen Pingan bought them at no loss. Why did Chen Pingan complain? If he didn't send the letter earlier, otherwise he could eat the Niujiao Mountain. Even if Chen Ping'an didn't have enough fairy money in his pocket, Wei Bo could put it in first, and the two of them could divide Niujiao Mountain. Owning a Baobozhai in Niujiao Mountain is equivalent to selling it half. Half-free Xianjia Ferry!
Chen Pingan read the letter again to make sure that no hidden secrets were missed, and then put it into Fangcunwu.
The mountains to the west of Longquan County are filled with auras that are as rich as the top immortal mansions in Aquarius Continent. This is true, but the landscape and luck are severely divided. Furthermore, the territory is still too small. For those Xianjia sects and sects with a radius of hundreds or even thousands of miles, it is really difficult to form a climate for those Longquan Mountain tops, which are mostly more than ten miles in radius. Of course, it is more than enough to worship a golden elixir earthly immortal.
Chen Pingan feels that buying the mountain is feasible.
I went to Mao Xiaodong’s study and wrote a letter asking Wei Bo to discuss a price first.
Ask Pei Qian to run errands and hand them over to an old master in charge of this matter in the academy.
Sitting in the antique study room, Chen Pingan remembered a recent chat. Cui Dongshan casually talked about the debate between Buddhism and Taoism in Qingluan Kingdom. He had mentioned to Chen Pingan before about the hundreds of schools of thought. In fact, there are not many "serious" books, so Chen Pingan was asked to go to the academy library to find those Buddhist and Taoist classics.
Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment and left the study. Waiting for Lin Shouyi to finish refining his Qi, he took him to the library.
On the way, Lin Shou smiled and asked, "You haven't figured out the answer to that matter yet?"
Chen Ping'an was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he was visiting Lin for the first time in the academy. Shouichi, the latter refers to gratitude.
Chen Pingan smiled bitterly and said: "I really can't guess it. I'm very curious. Please don't play riddles with me. If you don't tell me, I will definitely ask you directly before I leave the academy."< /p>
Lin Shouyi smiled and said: "Do you still remember that time when the mountain road was muddy and Li Huai rolled all over the ground, and everyone felt bored?"
Chen Pingan thought for a while, "I vaguely remember , and then I agreed to make a bookcase for Li Huai, so he laughed out loud and stopped making trouble, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to leave for a while. But in the past few years, Li Huai has become too sensible.”
Lin Shouyi asked: "Then do you still remember what you said to me?"
Chen Pingan hesitated.
Lin Shouyi smiled and said: "I know you will definitely remember."
Chen Ping'an sighed: "You really care about such a trivial matter?"
Lin Shou nodded and said, "I was the most unsocial at that time. Li Baoping called youUncle Junior Master, Li Huai is the closest to you. Even A Liang likes to chat with them both. Zhu Lu and Zhu He are father and daughter. Only I, Lin Shouyi, seem to be the most out of place. Although I behave It doesn't matter if you get it or not, but how is it possible to say that you don't feel any loss in your heart? So actually for a long time, I have been doubting myself, whether I should go to Sui Dynasty to study with you. "
When Lin Shou talked about this, this beautiful Taoist who was unsmiling in the academy actually had a warm smile, "Then you squatted on the dirt road, turned to me and said a few words, 'Here you go. Do you want to make one too? ’ “It’s easy anyway.” "
Lin Shouyi walked slowly, "So I agreed at that time. "
Chen Ping'an laughed, "I didn't think much about it at the time. I just felt that if I didn't say that, you definitely wouldn't want it. But when the time came, I made a bookcase for Li Huai, and you were the only one who didn’t have it. I was worried that you would alienate Xiaobaoping and Li Huai because of this. To be honest, at that time, I considered your mood, but more importantly, I thought Among the three of us, you, Lin Shouyi, are the oldest and have a stable temperament. When I go to the academy and I have to leave, I just want you to take care of them more.
Lin Shou nodded and said: "I actually understood this on the road, but there is one thing I do quite well, and that is the kindness of others to me. There is more kindness to others, but there is injustice in the heart.
Lin Shouyi smiled more and more and said: "Later on the ferry across the river, you made the small bookcase for Li Huai first, and mine became the last thing you made. Naturally, The bamboo box that you, Chen Pingan, are most familiar with has become the best one in fact. At that time, I realized that this guy Chen Pingan didn't talk much, but he was actually a pretty good person. So when I got to the academy, Li Huai was being bullied. Although I didn't contribute much, I didn't hide. You know, at that time, I had clearly seen my path to spiritual cultivation, so I gambled everything on it. For the future, I have prepared for the worst. In the worst case, I will be crippled, cut off from the path of spiritual cultivation, and then continue to be an illegitimate child that my parents will look down upon for the rest of my life, but I must first be someone that you, Chen Pingan, will not look down upon. people. "
Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "I keep these in mind.
Lin Shouyi smiled and said: "So after the Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator assassinated the small courtyard, you Chen Pingan came to the courtyard and finally deliberately sat next to me, Lin Shouyi. I know that you, Chen Pingan, also I know, in fact, except for Li Huai, who is heartless, even Pei Qian, everyone in the yard knows why you sit alone next to me, because you are afraid that I will get involved in spiritual practice early and be arrogant, but in that scene I can only watch from the beginning to the end during the war, so I will definitely feel disappointed. I am afraid that I, Lin Shouyi, will become farther and farther away from you. "
Chen Pingan stopped, did not deny this, and asked with a smile: "Then do you know what I am most grateful to you for? Now it's your turn to guess.
Lin Shou shook his head directly and said: "I am a person who accepts death and doesn't think too much about other things. This is very different from you, Chen Ping'an. I will definitely guess."Less than. "
Chen Pingan didn't show off, and said: "You once told me that not all parents in the world are like my parents, Chen Pingan. "
Lin Shouyi was a little confused.
Chen Pingan stretched out his fist, stretched out a finger, and smiled: "First of all, I am very happy that you, Lin Shouyi, are willing to say such things. , it shows that you regard me as a friend. After all, your identity has always been your biggest concern. ”
Chen Pingan stretched out his second finger, “I have always remembered this sentence, so that after my trip to Ouhua Blessed Land, Pei Qian and I were able to walk here.” , all thanks to your words. ”
Chen Pingan finally stretched out his third finger, “And after hearing this sentence, I was like...a pauper who suddenly discovered that he had inherited a large fortune. Rich people! When I think about this, when I meet my peers who are rich, such as Fan Er who later became friends, or Ai Aizhou and Liu Youzhou who never became friends, when I get along with them, I am always confused about whether they have money or not. I don't feel like there's anything to be ashamed of. "
Lin Shouyi smiled, and then revealed the secret, "I think Song Jixin hates you the most. "
Chen Pingan nodded.
Chen Pingan stopped in front of the library and looked up at the tall building, "Lin Shouyi, my little kindness is so valued by you. And cherish it, I am very happy, especially happy.
Lin Shouyi said: "In this world, even good people like to be demanding of good people, so you should also cherish a friend like me." "
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I will!
Lin Shouyi asked: "Then if you give me something, I won't have to worry about whether I return the gift in the future?" "
Chen Pingan waved his hand and put his arm around Lin Shouyi's shoulders, "Don't even think about it!
Lin Shou moved Chen Ping'an away with a little dexterity, straightened his clothes, and complained: "If the academy girls saw this scene, they might lose a few admirers." Of course I don't like them, but I don't hate them liking me either. "
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I think over the years in the academy, you, Lin Shouyi, have actually changed the most because of your sneakiness. "
Lin Shouyi and Chen Ping'an looked at each other, they both thought of someone, and then they laughed heartily together for no reason.
This is probably the understanding between friends.
p>
The two fellow countrymen strode into the library together, chatting and laughing.
Countless books were waiting for them to read and retrieve.
————
Over at Luo Mangosteen House, the boy in Tsing Yi had just had a farewell drink with friends from a small town restaurant.
The girl in pink skirt sat on a small bamboo chair and drank. Guazi noticed that he seemed to be losing interest, so she asked: "Didn't you have a good time drinking with your brother, the God of River Water? Or are the drinks too expensive? ”
The boy in Tsing Yi sat down on the bamboo chair next to her, holding his hands
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Cheek, "You don't understand the affairs of the world."
The girl in pink skirt reached out her hand and poured some melon seeds for him. The kid didn't refuse.
The former Huang Tingguo River God, through the boy in green, successfully obtained an extremely valuable Tai Ping Wu Shi Plate.
Then he obtained the permission from Huang Tingguo's Ministry of Etiquette to leave the jurisdiction, pass through the Dali border, and visit Luopo Mountain.
The boy in green took his best friend from the martial arts world to visit many places. The girl in pink skirt estimated that this guy was bragging in front of the water god.
After the boy in Tsing Yi finished crushing the melon seeds, he wailed melancholy and scratched his ears and cheeks. Then he calmed down instantly. His legs were straight and he was not energetic. He slumped on the bamboo chair and said slowly: "Jiang He Zhengshen, When we were drinking, my brother said that he saw Tiefu Jiang, the highest-ranking Jiang Shen, and he was very envious and wanted me to speak kindly to the Dali court. In a few words, some tributaries were included in his jurisdiction."
"Did he give you any money from the gods?"
"No. ”
The girl in the pink skirt has strange eyes.
The boy in green glared at her and said angrily: "It's not that my brother is stingy, he said it himself, it's too shameful for brothers to talk about money exchanges. I think this is the truth. Now I'm just worried about which temple I should go to to burn incense for which Bodhisattva. As you know, that guy Wei Bo has never wanted to see me. He kept trying to avoid me the last time I went to see him, and he didn't show any loyalty or friendship to our family. The mountain god with the golden head was useless. The county magistrate, Wu Yuan, whose surname was Yuan, I had encountered a wall before, but the one named Xu Ruo gave each of us a peace card. Swordsman, I think there is a chance, but I can’t find him.”
The girl in the pink skirt sipped melon seeds and asked in a low voice: “Even if you find the temple, do you have the money to offer it?”
The boy in Tsing Yi was a little unsure, "That Xu Ruo doesn't necessarily want to accept money from me. You see, Xu Ruo has such a good relationship with our master, are you embarrassed to accept money from me? If it doesn't work, I'll just owe it first and then look back." Is it okay to borrow money from the master and give it back to Xu Ruo?"
The girl in the pink skirt rarely got angry and said angrily: "What's the matter with you! Why are you always thinking about the master's money?"
The boy in green muttered: "It's so strange that a penny can stump a heroic man. Who has never been down and out? Besides, isn't our place called Luopo Mountain? It's the master's fault for choosing such a mountain. It's unlucky to get a name."
The girl in the pink skirt was even more angry, "Can you blame the master for this?"
What if it were a dog? For other things, if she dared to talk to him like this, the boy in Tsing Yi would have been furious. But today, the boy in Tsing Yi didn't even want to get angry and couldn't muster the energy.
At this moment, Wei Bo, who had rarely visited Luopo Mountain in the past year, appeared on the road and walked slowly.
The boy in green jumped up and ran over, saying extremely flatteringly: "Wei Dazhengshen, why do you have time to come to my house today? Are you tired from walking? Why don't you sit on the bamboo chair and I will rub your shoulders?" Beat your legs?"
Wei Bo stretched out his hand and held down the guy's head, "Let's cool down."
The boy in green hugged one of Wei Bo's sleeves, and it was to Wei Bo. The barberry was dragged towards the pond behind the bamboo house.
The girl in pink skirt shook her head, she really had embarrassed her master.
Wei Bo squatted beside the small pond with crystal clear water, and the golden lotus seed had begun to germinate.
The boy in green squatted aside, "Old Immortal Wei, can I discuss something with you?"
Wei Bo stared at the extremely precious seed. After all, he was the Taoist master. Lu Chen is one of the "relics" in this world. This is also the reason why Shenshui Kingdom has been cut off for so long, but it is still disconnected and its vitality is not exhausted. It is also the reason why Wei Bo has set his sights on Yang Hua, the god of rivers in Tiefu River. As the only remnant of the gods in the Shenshui Kingdom, Wei Bo was able to escape from the catastrophe that year and has survived until now, until he became the Beiyue God of the Great Li Dynasty. There is God's will in the dark, and of course Wei Bo One's own forbearance is also crucial. If people don't save themselves, God won't save them.
Wei Bo's tone was indifferent, and he directly dispelled the little boy's hope of luck with one sentence, "Then the God of River Water, treats you as a fool, and you are so happy to be a fool?"
The boy in Tsing Yi stood up angrily. After taking a few steps, he turned around and saw Wei Bo with his back turned to him. He was punching and kicking the unsightly figure on the spot, and then he hurried away.
Before Wei Bo finally left Luopo Mountain, he smiled at the two little guys sitting on the bamboo chairs and said, "Your master, you will be back soon."
Wei Bo Walk away.
The girl in the pink skirt was extremely excited, but for some reason, she turned around and found the kid in Tsing Yi who should have been as surprised and happy as she was, sitting on a bamboo chair in a daze.
She asked softly: "What's wrong?"
The boy in Tsing Yi murmured: "You are already so stupid, but in the end I told Wei Bo that you were a fool, you said Our master will be very disappointed when he sees us this time."
The girl in the pink skirt stood up angrily and ignored this guy who was kind-hearted as a donkey. She went to get a bucket of water. Wipe the bamboo floor carefully with a rag.
The boy in green bent over and held his chin. He had once longed for a scene, that is, when Brother Yujiang Shuishen came to Luoluo Mountain as a guest, he could confidently sit aside and drink and watch. Chen Ping'an and his brother met each other late, called each other brothers, and exchanged cups for cups. That way, he would be proud. After the banquet is over, he can brag to Chen Ping'an about his deeds in the world and how prosperous he was in Yujiang when he returns to Luolu Mountain with Chen Ping'an.
But I found that it seemed a bit difficult.
The boy in Tsing Yi was a little disappointed. He lowered his head and saw the melon seed shells on the ground, which seemed to be still there.There were a few fish that slipped through the net, and the bored boy in Tsing Yi picked them up and ate them. It seemed to taste better than usual?
The girl in a pink skirt who was wiping the steps of the bamboo house happened to bump into this scene and asked in surprise: "Are you already so poor? Could it be that the emperor gave all his family wealth to you?" Brother Jiang Shuishen, right?"
The boy in Tsing Yi was in a much better mood and rolled his eyes at her, "I'm not stupid, my wife doesn't even know how to save some. I don't want to be like Lao Cui. The old bachelor! When he was young, he didn’t know the value of money, but when he was old, he became a bachelor. This is the truth. When our master comes home, I will tell you what I said before, so that he will not still like to be the boy who is good at making money..."
A bang.
The boy in green flew away from the cliff.
The girl in the pink skirt was used to it and was not worried about his safety.
A long green snake suddenly appeared, soaring through the clouds and mist, then climbed up the cliff, regained the appearance of a boy in green, and swaggered towards the bamboo building, "Loyalty is hard on the ears, no wonder since ancient times loyal ministers and good generals rarely end well..."< /p>
There was another bang.
The boy in Tsing Yi flew out again.
After he returned to the top of the mountain for the second time, he saw an old man in Confucian shirt but barefoot standing on the second floor of the bamboo building. The boy in green immediately shouted: "Old Cui, I have nothing this time. I said it!"
He was beaten and fell into the cliff again.
The girl in pink skirt was already wiping the railing on the second floor, a little confused.
The old man surnamed Cui smiled and said: "Itchy skin needs a beating to make it easier to remember."
The girl in the pink skirt could not refute, so she stopped pleading for the boy in green.
On the mountainous road of Luo Luo Mountain, a boy in Tsing Yi cursed and ran all the way up the mountain.
————
The isolated overseas island near the Middle-earth Divine Continent.
The man in the Confucian shirt rejected another visitor that day, and was rejected by the Grand Priest of the Academy of the Sub-Sage lineage.
If it were before, even if the man in Confucian shirt was unwilling to "open the door", he would still show up. This time I saw and disappeared.
The high priest of the academy had no choice but to leave in disappointment. Deep down in his heart, he was inevitably a little worried.
I don’t know why the scholar was so unkind this time.
The man in Confucian shirt has been standing in the hut where Zhao Yao lived. There is a road in Shushan.
He was standing in one of the places, flipping through a Confucian book he had picked out at random. The Confucian saint who wrote this book had no cultural background because he died without warning at a young age. In the long river of time, and the disciples were not able to truly grasp the essence of the cultural context, in just a hundred years, the incense of the literary movement was cut off.
He put down his book, walked out of the hut, went to the top of the mountain, and continued to look at the sea from a distance.
How Zhao Yao came here was because of the protection of a residual soul.
Otherwise, even a great heavenly master with a foreign surname from Longhu Mountain and a high priest from the academy had to knock on the door before entering. How could Zhao Yao follow the crowd?Zhuliu arrived here by coincidence.
He withdrew his gaze and looked towards the cliff. Zhao Yao was there at the beginning, wanting to step out in one step.
Of course he doesn't care.
It was just that there was a middle-aged Confucian scholar with frosty white temples who was winking at him.
He then opened his mouth to persuade Zhao Yao.
After Zhao Yao left the island, he had a conversation with the Confucian scholar who sent Zhao Yao here.
He asked: "If you care so much, why don't you show up to see him."
The man replied: "Zhao Yao is still young. When he sees me, he will only become more caring." Guilt. He needs to untie some knots in his heart. Sooner or later, he will figure it out."
He asked: "Then Qi Jingchun is not afraid of Zhao Yao until his death. I don’t know what you think? Zhao Yao has good qualifications. It is not difficult to establish a sect in the Middle Earth Divine Continent. Waiting for the day when Zhao Yao's mood will turn into spring again, are you afraid that Zhao Yao will make wedding clothes for other cultural backgrounds, or even Taoism?" Qi Jingchun replied: "It doesn't matter, I am a student? It’s good to be alive. Whether or not you inherit my cultural background is not that important compared to Zhao Yao’s ability to study steadily for the rest of his life.”
He sighed: “Qi Jingchun, what a pity you are.”
Qi Jingchun just smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, this Chinese scholar who once split the Yellow River Cave and Sky with a sword felt that there was one less confidant in his life.
Aquarius Island Yunxia Mountain.
Cai Jinjian, who had already occupied Yifeng Mansion alone, was sitting alone on a futon practicing Taoism today. After opening his eyes, he stood up and walked to the observation deck with a wide view.
Xianzi Cai, who was making great progress on the road construction and whose temperament became increasingly deserted, seemed to remember something and smiled.
Back then, when a scholar whom she admired and respected the most, gave her the first scroll of Time, he did something that made Cai Jinjian feel earth-shaking.
The flawless Mr. Qi who studied heaven and man in her mind actually asked her sincerely like a student asking for advice: "If you send this painting to the Great Wall of Sword Qi, what will happen?" Isn’t it superfluous? But it’s not beautiful?”
Cai Jinjian still clearly remembers the mood at that time. It was almost like a Yuanying monk going through a tribulation, and he was struck by five thunders.
After seeing her dull expression, Mr. Qi smiled and said: "I have seven or six orifices to understand the affairs of men and women in this world, and I don't understand anything at all."
Cai Jin's Jane Board He frowned and tensed up.
Qi Jingchun said helplessly: "If you want to laugh, just laugh."
Cai Jinjian did not laugh in the end. Deep down in her heart, she felt a little sad. She looked at Mr. Qi foolishly. After coming back to his senses, Cai Jinjian gave his answer, "If you don't like it, doing this may not be useful. Whether it is superfluous or not, it doesn't matter. If you already like it,After reading these, maybe you will like it even more. ”
At that time, after listening to Cai Jinjian’s words, Mr. Qi seemed to have a much lighter burden on his shoulders, and he suddenly smiled.
Mr. Qi’s smile at that time would be It made Cai Jinjian feel that this man, no matter how educated he was, was still in the world.
Cai Jinjian lay on the railing and narrowed his eyes. He was clearly looking at the spectacular scenery outside the observation deck. In fact, it is not in her eyes.
Secretly liking such a man, even if she knows that he will not like her, is the best thing in her life.
In the future. Regardless of hundreds of years, Cai Jinjian is willing to think about him in the quiet and lonely moments with no one around.
————
In the middle of Aquarius Continent, there is a dynasty with Zhu Ying. Xianjia Ferry at the southern border.
Liu Qingshan bought a large bottle of wine and sat by the river, drinking one sip after another.
Liu Boqi knew that this day would come sooner or later. Come, but I didn’t expect it to be faster than expected.
First there was a conflict with the Qi Practitioner, which was still a trivial matter, and then there was a bigger bad news, about the one in Qingluan Kingdom. Farce.
She took the jug from Liu Qingshan's hand and said in a deep voice: "I have hardly read any books, so I can't tell you the truth. You are a scholar, so you may not listen to me, but no matter what, , I hope you must know one thing! "
Liu Boqi, the female crowned master of the swordsman's room, holds a wine pot in one hand and holds the sword on her waist with the other hand, with a sharp look on her face, "There are so many stupid and bad people in the world. It has nothing to do with how many books they have read. When I meet a little bit of good people and things, I will hate them so much that I will either possess them or destroy them. From now on, if you want to talk to people like this about your reasoning, just do it. But if it doesn't make sense in the end, I will explain it to you. "
Liu Qingshan just kept shaking his head, shaking his head vigorously, "I have figured this out. I just want to know why the eldest brother did that. As a son of man, I want to tell my most respected elder brother, what should I do? I know that I am not as good as my elder brother in every aspect, so I just want to go home and tell him about this, is that okay? "
Liu Boqi shook his head for the first time. She followed Liu Qingfeng in everything, but she did not accommodate Liu Qingfeng on this matter, "Don't talk about this. You'd better endure it. "
Liu Qingshan murmured: "Why? "
Liu Boqi said: "I don't know the reason or reason for this matter, and I don't want to talk nonsense just to explain it to you. But I know that your brother will only be in more pain than you at the moment. If you think it would be nice to rub salt into his wounds, just go ahead and I won't stop you, but I will look down upon you. It turns out that Liu Qingshan is such a loser. Her mind is smaller than that of a girl! "
Liu Qingshan had a dull look on his face.
Liu Boqi was a little uneasy and asked directly, "Am I exaggerating? ”
Liu Qingshan stared at her blankly for a long time, then suddenly smiled andHe wiped his eyes with tears and runny nose,

“It’s okay.”
Liu Boqi then drank the wine The pot was returned to Liu Qingshan, "You can drink now."
Liu Qingshan was not polite, took the jug, and drank heavily.
He drank until he lay down by the river and vomited.
Liu Boqi patted his back gently, "If you still want to drink, I will buy it for you."
Liu Qingshan shook his head gently.
In the end, Liu Boqi walked on the street carrying Liu Qingshan on his back in full view of everyone.

On the road outside a county town in Qingluan Country, after heavy rain, it was muddy and water accumulated in pools.
A carriage whose driver was an old man from the county government slowed down, and after a while, it sped up and rushed towards the county seat.
Wang Yifu, who was sitting in the carriage with Magistrate Liu, glanced at Liu Qingfeng, who was concentrating with his eyes closed.
Wang Yifu was one of the two people secretly sent into Qingluan Kingdom by Cui Han, the national counselor. Now he was nominally a county captain, but in fact he served as the military secretary beside Liu Qingfeng to prevent some assassinations.
This shows how much Cui Chang attaches great importance to this small county magistrate in a small country.
Wang Yifu knew that there were several women and children staggering on the road behind the carriage.
Wang Yifu also closed his eyes.
He, the fallen general of the Lu Dynasty, finally began to look forward to the high position that this civil servant of Qingluan Kingdom could reach in the Dali court in the future.

The northern border of Zhu Ying Dynasty.
Chaos abounds.
On a mountain road, there were several genealogy masters from small sects who concealed their identities and pretended to be wild cultivators from the mountains. They had early targeted a convoy of officials fleeing south.
Ma Kuxuan happened to encounter one of the Qi practitioners who was dragging a gorgeously dressed woman by her hair and dragging her out of the carriage, saying that he wanted to taste the governor. Mrs. Taste.
Ma Kuxuan didn't want to interfere at first and continued to go his own way. However, he was blocked by a Qi practitioner, so Ma Kuxuan punched one and a half of them to death. The last person fled in a hurry. Ma Kuxuan Xuan ignored it.
The poor Qi practitioner who had half his life left was stepped on the chest by Ma Kuxuan. Ma Kuxuan smiled and said: "Is this how you become a bad person? When you become a bad person, you have to be good or bad. You want me to teach you about your eyesight?"
Ma Kuxuan stepped on the man's chest.
Ma Kuxuan continued on his way.
I never thought that among the relatives of the disheveled woman, there was a young man who was deeply humiliated and angrily asked Ma Kuxuan why he didn't kill the last person. Isn't this the danger of raising a tiger?
Ma Kuxuan punched the young man to death, and then walked through the silent motorcade, only saying, "Stupid people who are stupid deserve to die more than bad people."
After leaving, the military monk from Zhenwu Mountain appeared, frowned and said, "That ignorantYoung man, sin does not lead to death. "
Ma Kuxuan smiled and said: "Everyone is going to die. Shouldn't you be grateful to me for this rare act of heroism? ”
The woman lay on her son’s body and cried loudly. She was full of hatred and fear for the crazy young man who wasted no time on human life.

p>The Xianjia sect closest to the Great Li Capital, Changchun Palace
It is heavily guarded
Prince Song He and his mother stood on the top of the mountain and asked with a smile. Said: "Is your uncle trying to usurp the throne? "
Song He quickly shook his head and said, "But is it necessary to go to such trouble?" Wouldn't it be enough to just carry out an assassination? Aren’t the dead men of the Sui Dynasty and the remnants of the Lu dynasty all okay? Mother, I estimate that at this moment, not to mention the Dali border troops, even in the court, there are many people urging the emperor to ascend the throne. Most of the people who looked after me and my mother were civil servants, not very useful. "
The Dali woman who had lost all her power smiled and said: "He'er, don't underestimate your uncle so much. People are too big-hearted to look down on a dragon chair. ”
Song He didn’t quite believe it.
It’s one thing whether you like it or not. In a secular dynasty, who would dislike the dragon chair touching the buttocks?
The woman comforted her and said: "Da Li is in charge of the government and the public, and the people's support can be used. "
Song He turned his head, "People's support? Mother, haven’t you always said that those are ignorant ants?
The woman covered her mouth and smiled sweetly, "It's okay for us mother and son to talk about this kind of thing, but on other occasions, remember, you know it when you know it, but you can't tell it." From now on, when you become the Ninth Five Supreme Being who rules over a continent, you will have to learn to play dumb. It was the same with the wise and wise emperor's uncle, and it was the same with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. "
Song He asked: "What about the people on the mountain? "
The woman was a little hesitant.
Song He said: "I have never understood why my father keeps competing with those gods, but I am practicing Qi. Scholars, especially those who have reached a high level, are willing to be restrained by a human monarch? If I really become emperor in the future and if I change the established national policy, do you think more immortal forces will surrender to me and surround my dragon chair? Maybe I can rely on this to gradually check and balance the imperial master and the emperor's uncle? "
The short but extremely delicate and charming woman in palace clothes sighed, "He'er, don't say such silly things again in the future. It's best not to think about it." ”
Song He said, “Okay, just listen to mother.” "
The woman smiled sweetly.
This is the most lovable thing about her son. He is well-behaved and obedient, so mother and son are of the same mind in everything.
As for the other one.

Ruan Xiu stood in her yard. , eating cakes bought from Qilong Lane.
In the yard, the chickens grew into old hens and gave birth to a nest of chickens. The old hen and the chickens.There are more and more babies.
The native dog that has become a spirit and has become the king of the mountain has shown signs of becoming the king of the mountain. It is running wild in the mountains to the west. Fortunately, it has suffered a lot and does not dare to be too presumptuous. It is seen in the market. Human, it obediently holds its tail between its legs.
Ruan Xiu finished eating the cakes, put away the embroidered handkerchief, and clapped her hands.
Rise in a flash.
When she came to the cliff where someone had carved the four characters "天开神秀", she walked down from the top of the cliff.
We walked to the bottom of the cliff and returned the same way.

That day Chen Pingan took Li Baoping and Pei Qian for a stroll in the Sui capital.
Cui Dongshan stood in his study room, glanced at the Xianjia scrolls piled casually, and then looked at the books that Chen Pingan borrowed from the library.
There are also Chen Ping'an's carving knife and a few bamboo slips on the desk. They are all for the convenience of excerpting the words in the books, and they have not been put away.
Cui Dongshan was a little happy.
Li Baoping, Pei Qian and Li Huai regard this place as their own territory.
Isn’t Chen Pingan showing such signs?
But Cui Dongshan is still not in a happy mood today, for no reason, which makes Cui Dongshan helpless.
He did everything he could, overtly and covertly.
But it still seems difficult.
He left the study, came to the green bamboo corridor and sat cross-legged, with his palms on the floor, smiling slightly, "Little guy, come out."
Following Cui Dongshan suddenly raised his sleeves.
A little guy was pulled out, dizzy and swaying.
After the little lotus man discovered that it was Cui Dongshan, he wanted to escape underground.
It turned out that no matter how hard it jumped, it couldn't do it, so I wanted to run out of the corridor and try it in the yard.
It just seemed like it hit the wall and fell back into the corridor.
Cui Dongshan laughed loudly, "Little fool."
The little lotus figure sat on the ground, his head hanging down.
Cui Dongshan looked at it.
I thought of myself.
When I was studying, I accompanied a poor old scholar in the poor alleys where he had not yet made his fortune. Although I was not considered an expert at that time, I was actually already a Qi practitioner. If it weren’t for the old scholar at the beginning With so many cumbersome rules set up, how could the master and the apprentice have such a miserable life? Can't even eat enough? Then finally one day, he wanted to earn some money and come back. As for whether the old scholar would be expelled from the school as agreed, he couldn't care less. A living person cannot be suffocated to death! But when he came back with a large bag of money, the old scholar said a few words without expression, one sentence was that from now on, he would no longer be a master and disciple. The second sentence is to hope that no matter where the money comes from, it will be sent back to where it comes from, because the money is the ill-gotten gains of his disciples. But after that, Cui Chan loves to deceive, kidnap, and rob homes. He is an old scholar. Even the big disciples can’t teach youOkay, I can’t control it anymore, I’m not that capable.
At that time, the young Cui Chan was just like the little lotus flower he is now, sullen, bowed and silent.
The mentality may be very different, but the pitiful appearance is the same.
Cui Dongshan remembered that young Cui Chan did not cry and begged the old scholar not to drive him away from the school. He only said a few words, I can return the money, but I hope to keep a few. A silver ingot, I already owed half a year's study money, so I thought it was settled. The second sentence is that young Cui Chan told the old scholar, take this little money and buy some better brushes. The brush holders are so bare that you can't bear to throw them away. Even if you have some knowledge in your belly, how can you write articles.
That day the old scholar asked Cui Chan to wait in the house with four walls.
The old scholar walked out of the house and sighed secretly in the alley. Finally, he licked his face and borrowed some money from a neighbor, and scolded the shrew who couldn't stand his poverty. His head was covered in blood, and he said a lot of stupid things in a strange manner. The old scholar didn't talk back, he just smiled apologetically. The old scholar spent all his money and bought half a roasted chicken wrapped in oil paper. He swaggered back to the house and never said anything about driving Cui Han away. He just asked Cui Chan to sit down and eat the roasted chicken.
The two sat opposite each other on the shabby table. Cui Han ate for a while and asked the old scholar why he didn't eat.
The old scholar said that he has a toothache recently and cannot eat greasy food.
The young Cui Chan continued to eat with his head down, and asked the old scholar, had he borrowed the money to buy a writing brush?
The old scholar patted his belly and said that they are all here and can’t run away. It doesn’t matter if he writes later. He can write more articles in one go.
Young Cui Chan actually knew that the poor old scholar who spoke so eloquently was trying to cover up his stomach growling with hunger.
The old scholar finally said softly, Xiao Qian, neither sir nor you, we can only buy this half roast chicken with money. But you can just take this unfashionable bit of knowledge in your stomach, as much as you can, without spending any money. Of course, it doesn’t seem to be very valuable. As scholars, as long as we don't starve to death for a day, we still have to talk about truth for a day.
In fact, that day was the first time Cui Chan left the literary sage lineage, although it was only for a short period of less than an hour.
It was only the later junior disciples Zuo Zuo and Qi Jingchun, as well as all the disciples and registered disciples of Literary Saint, who did not know about this matter.
Cui Chan didn’t say it, and neither did the old scholar.

Today, Cui Dongshan tapped the little lotus figure on the head with his finger and said with a smile: "Let me tell you something serious, related to my husband. Do you want to listen?"
The little guy hesitated for a long time and nodded.
Cui Dongshan said slowly: "My husband has a hilltop called Luopo Mountain. There is a pond over there, and there is a golden lotus seed in it. It is very likely that this will be your chance to achieve enlightenment, for example, become Break through the Yuanying bottleneck and become the Aquarius Continent to enter the upper five realmsThe first spirit charm. At that time, Luolu Mountain will also benefit greatly from this, and it can stabilize and condense a large amount of spiritual energy and opportunities through you. When it comes to spiritual practice, certain passes are first come, first served. It's too late, there's no chance to even squat in the latrine. "
The little lotus man blinked, then raised his arms and clenched his fists, probably to encourage himself?
Cui Dongshan shook his head, "But I ask you to thing. One day in the future, when my husband is not with you, someone tells you this, and you feel that you are particularly worthless, and you feel that you should do something for my husband..."
Cui Dongshan said in a deep voice: "Don't do it! "
The little lotus flower became more and more confused.
Cui Dongshan pointed at his heart, then at the little guy, and said with a smile: "You are the paradise in my husband's heart. . "
The little guy tilted his head, indicating that he couldn't understand.
Cui Dongshan turned his head and looked up, "He saw this in his mind in you. The most beautiful scene in the world, well, at least it is one of them. How should I put it, you are like my husband looking back at all the suffering he suffered when he was young and growing a flower. Seeing you will make your husband feel at ease. It turns out that he is not alone in the world, there are fools just like him, exactly the same. Then by luck, you met. Even one day, my husband will change because of the complicated world and his helplessness. Then by that time, if you haven't changed, your husband will be able to feel a little more at ease and become less and slower. "
Cui Dongshan withdrew his gaze, "But if you do as I say, you will lose a huge opportunity. "
The lotus figure shook his head vigorously.
As if to say it doesn't matter.
Cui Dongshan smiled brightly, leaned forward, and stretched out his little finger, "Then Let's pull the hook. ”
The little lotus figure with only one arm raised his arm and hooked up with Cui Dongshan. The size of the fingers on both sides was very different, which was very interesting.
Cui Dongshan kept bending down. , smiled and said: "Hanging will not change for a hundred years, well, if possible, it will not change for a thousand or ten thousand years. "
The little guy nodded vigorously.
Cui Dongshan suddenly said fiercely: "If you regret it one day, I will beat you to death and put you on the chopping board, click, click, click, Cut it into eight pieces, make soup and drink it, add onions and garlic, sprinkle with oil and salt..."
Halfway through, Cui Dongshan became happy and made a face. As if it was not enough, he stretched out He stretched out his hands, opened his mouth, held his nose, and made a strange face.
The little lotus man giggled, and simply lay on the ground, dancing.
Cui Dongshan was also happy. Laughing.
In the long years that followed,
Luo Luoshan always had such a carefree and innocent spirit. Innocent.
No matter how successful Chen Pingan is in the future, he will always go out.When I return to my hometown from a long trip, I will spend some time alone with my little one to simply talk about what is on my mind.
