Chen Ping'an's trip to Qingxia Island came and went in a hurry.
In fact, whether Gu Can leaves or stays has nothing to do with the overall trend. In fact, Chen Ping'an can't change much now. There are some things behind the scenes, whether it is the actions of Su Gaoshan in Dali, the changes in Shujian Lake, that As long as Chen Ping'an is not willing to leave the middle of Aquarius Continent despite the plan of the monk from the Liudao Island, it will be the same wherever Gu Can is.
But Gu Can himself is willing to stay on Qingxia Island and guard the Spring Court Mansion, which is the best.
Chen Pingan punted away.
Disembarking in Lutong City, the ferry passed by Furong Mountain where the founder's hall had been demolished. When the fire dragon appeared, its arrogance was soaring, no less than that of the loach that poured water over the river and Shujian Lake. Those who were high-level enough mistakenly thought that the enemy of Gu Can would show up, and a fire-and-water battle would break out. However, they did not expect that the group of foreigners who were rumored to be Da Li Nianganlang chose to stop and leave. .
However, it did not stop people from watching the excitement afterwards. The woman in Tsing Yi, who was shrouded in mist and aroused suspicion, and a strange young man with a mole between his eyebrows teamed up to kill the members of the Zhu Ying Dynasty. It is said that the Nine Realm Sword Cultivator not only reduced his physical body to food, but even his Nascent Soul was detained. This means that the two "old monks" with "the color of a boy and a girl" had a lot of energy during the pursuit. This is also more scary.
There is a huge difference between defeating an Earth Immortal and killing an Earth Immortal.
After Chen Pingan landed, he retrieved the horse from the inn, went to the alley shop and bought a few meat buns with thin skin and lots of stuffing, had a hearty meal, and then hurried to meet him. On the southeastern border of Shihao Kingdom, which borders the Meigla Kingdom, the pass is named Liuliu. It is famous in history. There are different opinions. Some say that the founding emperor of the Zhuying Dynasty once successfully saved Liuliu, the founder of the Zhuying Dynasty. The counselor of the Han clan who was "half-finished" was also said to be the most powerful Nascent Soul sword cultivator in the history of the Zhu Ying Dynasty. He was disheartened and could not gain enlightenment here. In the end, he still could not become a sword immortal in the upper five realms. The word "stay" is written on the cliff with sharp sword energy, and the soldiers are relieved. This makes the sword cultivators in the central part of Aquarius Island, as well as many swordsmen in the rivers and lakes, regard this small pass in the vassal country as a sacred place in their hearts, and they will all walk on it. Once there, I admired the elegance of the word "leave" on the cliff.
Before autumn, Chen Pingan rushed to Liuguan after a long journey and met with Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi who had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing the familiar figure of Mr. Chen riding a horse, Ma Duyi and Zeng Ye were obviously relieved.
At first, the two of them felt quite comfortable without Chen Ping'an beside them. Zeng Ye's bamboo box also carried the Hell Palace of Hell. "The ghosts in the Cave Realm are walking around the world of Shihao. As long as they don't show off, it's enough. So at first, Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi spoke and acted freely, and they were uninhibited. As they walked, there were some rumblings, even if they just saw You. The Dali scouts who were dragging around the fields were all frightened. At that time, they realized that it was very different whether Mr. Chen was around or not.
As long as Mr. Chen is here, the rules are indeed there.But one person and one ghost, at least feel at ease.
Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi also talked about that feeling in private, but they couldn't figure out the reason. They just felt that it was not just Mr. Chen who had a high level of cultivation.
At the scenic spot in Liuguan, they looked up at the big characters on a cliff like a knife. They also discovered that Mr. Chen went to Shujian Lake alone. After returning, Increasingly worried.
Chen Pingan also noticed this. After thinking about it, he withdrew his gaze and said frankly to them: "Before coming here, I took two jade tokens and wanted to see Dali Su Gaoshan, but I couldn’t see it.”
Zeng Ye didn’t think deeply about it, but felt a little disappointed for Mr. Chen.
But Ma Duyi knew very well that the clouds and waves were treacherous and there must be danger hidden there.
Chen Pingan tried his best to use a calm tone and said with a smile: "There are many things, if you leave them there, you will never know the answer. As long as you make a choice, you will have good things." Bad, now is the bad result. Not only can we not see Su Gaoshan, we may not be able to scare the snake, but we will definitely be worried about the Great Li general, so we must be more careful next time, if the Mei Glaze Kingdom is on the way , If any of you accidentally spot the monks accompanying Da Li, just pretend you didn’t see them. Don’t worry, we won’t be in danger of our lives.”
Although Zeng Ye nodded, he was inevitably worried.
Ma Duyi, however, has a heart as wide as heaven and earth. He said with a smile: "As long as I don't get chased by the big Li cavalry, I don't care. Just watch it if you like. Not a single copper coin can escape from us." "
Chen Ping'an said helplessly: "You two can complement each other."
Ma Duyi glared, "Mr. Chen, please don't mess with the rules. I don’t look down on Zeng Ye.”
Zeng Ye smiled naively, but he didn’t dare to say that he didn’t look down on Ma Duyi either.
Under the cliff, there are only a few merchants from Shihao and Meiglai countries who need to pass the customs. Most of them are young and hope to use this as a capital to show off after returning home. As for the ones above, I have seen the word "stay" on the cliff for the elderly merchants and old Jianghu people countless times, and I really can't leave them behind.
Just as Chen Ping'an and his three cavalrymen turned their horses, a group of swordsmen from all walks of life came on horseback. They all dismounted, took off their swords, and bowed respectfully to the word "mountain cliff."
Among them, the old man, for the rest of the young men in the cavalry, spoke loudly and impassionedly about the historical origins of the monuments here, and of course he had to say a few nice words for their sword wielders. The young men and women were all in high spirits and excited when they heard this.
Mostly a martial artist who left his master's sect and came to the martial arts sect to gain experience.
Chen Ping'an could naturally see the depth of the old man. He was a five-level martial artist with a fairly good foundation. In a vassal land with a small territory like the Meigla Kingdom, he should be regarded as a well-known figure in the world. However, unless the old swordsman encounters a great opportunity, he will have no hope in the six realms in this life. Because of the exhaustion of Qi and blood, he seems to be still in a state of decline.The root of the disease has caused the soul to wander, making the bottleneck of the five realms more and more indestructible. As long as you meet a younger martial artist of the same realm, you will naturally follow the old saying that you are afraid of the young.
When we meet by chance in the rivers and lakes, we usually pass by each other and ride away.
The old man turned his head and looked at the backs of the three knights. He saw a slender girl with slightly longer eyebrows and asked: "Master, the one wearing a green shirt and wearing a sword. Is he a hidden master among us in the world?"
The old man smiled and said: "If you don't have a green shirt and a sword, you must be a swordsman."
They all mounted their horses and continued on their way through the border.
The Mei Glaze Kingdom is relatively stable, but the neighboring Shihao Kingdom is in chaos. Previously, an upright and upright official of the Shihao Kingdom who had long-standing friendships with his sect sent a secret letter saying: He was a powerful eunuch from the Shihao Kingdom, and he wanted to eradicate him and implicate innocent people. The innocent and loyal minister who was as famous as "Wendan Yushi" in the temple of Shihao Kingdom confessed in the letter that he was willing to stay in the capital and be buried for the country. He wanted to teach the barbarians of Dali to know that there were still a few people in Shihao Kingdom who were not afraid of death. Scholars, but I hope that these friends from the world can escort the children of the local family to take refuge in the Mei Glaze Kingdom, so that he can go on the road with peace of mind.
After passing Liuli Pass, the place where the horse's hooves stepped was the territory of Shihao Kingdom.
The official had a sentence in the letter, which was written in a very heavy handwriting. When the old martial artist and his fellow disciples circulated it, they were all moved with emotion, so this time he took his disciples with him to Get involved in danger, ride in the rivers and lakes, and never look back.
"The Han family is a mellow person. The emperors of all dynasties have valued literary figures and have nurtured scholars for two hundred years. They have never treated scholars badly. We, the scholars, cannot let everyone be ashamed of the Han family."
The old man sat down. On the horseback, I felt sad in my heart. The Great Li cavalry was also pressing down on the Mei Glaze Army. The sky was huge. Is it so difficult to find a place for the people to stay and a safe place for the scholars?
This old man who is used to the ups and downs of the world has an ulterior thought deep in his heart. It would be better if the barbarians of Da Li conquer the Zhu Ying Dynasty as soon as possible. After the chaos, maybe There is an opportunity for a great era. No matter what, it is better than the few iron cavalry of Da Li, just like a few knives that were used to break the hole for Zhu Yingfan's vassal country. They have been cutting the flesh with blunt knives, cutting back and forth, and suffering. Yes, not ordinary people? Not to mention anything else, the Da Li barbarians treat the territories of various countries within the reach of the horse's hooves. They are merciless on the battlefield and kill so fast. But if you really want to move your eyes north, the whole smoke has gradually dissipated in the treasure bottle in the past few years. In the north of the continent, countless people who fled have returned to their hometowns one after another. The Dali civil servants stationed in various places have done a lot of personal things.
It’s just that these bastard words are destined to be wrong as soon as they are spoken, so the old man can only pour it on himself with swigs of old wine.
Over there, three horses are galloping.
They are still helping ghosts and ghosts fulfill their various wishes, and Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi are in charge of the porridge and medicine shop, but Mei Glaze Country is still relatively stable and cannot do a good job.many.
The world is in chaos, the world is not good, and the people are ignorant, frightened, and helpless.
Chen Ping'an and the others encountered a strange thing by a stream in a deserted countryside. A group of strongmen who had turned into bandits turned against a middle-aged Taoist man lying on a boulder in the water. , frowning.
A skinny, middle-aged Taoist who came from a side sect of Taoism in the Zhu Ying Dynasty. Now he is in the cave realm. He originally thought that the world was in chaos. As a Taoist priest, he should go down the mountain to save the people. Unexpectedly, he met a proficient person. The linen sorcerer who was good at physiognomy was indeed an expert, but when he looked at his physiognomy, he said that he was a poor man who died young and lived a life of hunger and cold. The middle-aged Taoist priest was so sad that he began to wait for death.
The group of horse thieves who fled from Shihao Kingdom had just made a deal and got a lot of money. They stopped their horses by the stream and saw such a weird man who wanted to die. They almost stabbed him. The middle-aged Taoist was solved. Unexpectedly, the Taoist was very happy and begged the man to use the knife faster. The young horse thief was muttering in his heart and did not dare to use the knife. The Taoist wanted to die, so he gave a lesson to the strong men who were accustomed to robbing families and homes, and talked about retribution for blessings and misfortunes. After all, in the eyes of the people at the foot of the mountain, he was a god of the middle and fifth realms, and a genealogy master, with knowledge and eloquence. There were still some, but it didn't scare anyone, but it frightened the horse thieves from the boss to the minions. They all looked at each other and in turn persuaded the middle-aged Taoist not to commit suicide.
So Chen Pingan encountered such a scene.
At this moment, the horse thieves no longer wanted to kill people and get goods, not to mention they didn’t think the three horses were easy to bully, so they deliberately turned a blind eye.
For Chen Pingan's side, it didn't matter. He stopped the horse to wash the horse's nose, started the stove to cook, and did whatever he had to do.
The middle-aged Taoist would not kill himself when he saw the horse thief. With his body in the cave realm, he could die for a while but could not, so he just lay on the stone and waited for death.
If the horse thieves are interested in those three people's wealth, the middle-aged Taoist will certainly stop them. Just think that before you die, you can accumulate a small amount of karmic virtue, give a good child in the next life, and at least live longer. Continue to practice.
Chen Ping'an was squatting by the river with his rice bowl in hand, and they were almost having dinner there.
A hot-tempered young horse thief caught Chen Pingan's gaze and glared at Chen Pingan: "What are you looking at? I haven't seen a hero eating before?!"
A horse thief leader , kindly went to the stone and handed a bowl of rice to the middle-aged Taoist. He said that it was not a problem to wait to die. It was better to eat when it was full. If there was thunder, go to the top of the mountain or under a tree and try to see if there was any problem. The possibility of being struck by lightning would be settled once and for all. When the middle-aged Taoist heard this, it seemed to make sense, so he thought about buying a big iron chain from the market. However, he still didn't take the bowl of rice. He said he wasn't hungry and started to talk again, trying to persuade the horse thief to have such kindness. Why not just be a good person and stop being a horse thief? With the chaos in the mountains now, wouldn't it be better to become a bodyguard?
The leader of the horse thieves was a little moved. He took his rice bowl, left the boulder in the river, and went back.Total it up with the brothers.
Chen Pingan found it interesting.
After picking up the rice in the bowl, Chen Ping'an tiptoed and floated towards the boulder. Wearing a green shirt with fluttering sleeves, he landed next to the middle-aged Taoist in a carefree manner.
The young horse thief almost spat out a mouthful of rice, but was slapped on the head by the horse thief leader, "What are you looking at, have you never seen a hero in the world?!"
Chen Pingan sat cross-legged on the boulder and said with a smile: "Why is this Taoist seeking death?"
The middle-aged Taoist is actually a kind man. He closed his eyes and whispered softly: "You deserve to die, Taoist priest." There is no hope, why not die?"
Chen Ping
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
An smiled and said: "You know, Taoist priest, Confucianism and Buddhism. There is a 'serious scripture' that is highly respected by the three Taoist sects. Well, it is the ancient book that is called the first of the scriptures. There is a saying that the Great Dao is fifty, the heavens are forty-nine, and one of them can escape?"
The middle-aged Taoist nodded, "The number of Dayan is fifty, and its use is ninety-nine. We say that one is born, two is born, and all things are derived."
Chen Pingan said: " When demonic obstacles come, it is especially difficult for those who practice Taoism. Even if they have millions of soldiers, it is difficult to defeat the enemy in their hearts."
The middle-aged Taoist sat up and lamented, "I understand the truth, but I am. I am only in the cave realm with mediocre qualifications, so I don’t dare to hope that the great road will be with me. I am really trembling and thinking about it, but I still can’t overcome the hurdle in my heart, so I can only place my hope in the next life.”
Chen Ping’an. He glanced at the horse thieves in the mountains over there, nodded and said: "Indeed, it is easy to break thieves in the mountains, but it is difficult to break thieves in the heart. It's the same."
The middle-aged Taoist forced a smile, "I appreciate your kindness. ”
A skinny middle-aged Taoist and a haggard young man met by chance in the mountains and rivers.
Both parties stopped talking and said goodbye without any more verbal exchanges.
The horse thieves were relieved, especially the young horse thief, who felt that he had just gone through hell.
Zeng Ye couldn't understand the middle-aged Taoist's thoughts. As he walked away, he asked softly: "Mr. Chen, are there any people in the world who are really willing to wait for death?"
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "On the road of practice, there are all kinds of strange things. That Taoist, if you follow the Buddhist teachings, you have to commit suicide first before you have a chance to drink. Otherwise, even if you are an eminent monk and a great virtue, you can't knock him with a stick. Immediately becoming a Buddha will only make people feel hurt. Well, you two, have you ever heard of a Buddhist koan? . Another one said, "There is nothing in the world, so why do you think there is any difference between these two verses?" Zeng Ye shook his head and said, "You don't understand this." "
Ma Duyi smiled and said: "Of course the latter is higher."
Chen Pingan sighed softly: "The Buddhist intention is that the latter is higher, but the former is. The world is obsessed with the ferry boat that Han people can ride on. Those who want to cross it should put down their hands.Bamboo Hao, got up and landed on the shore, and finally took the step of disembarking from the boat. Only then can I say that I have realized the latter. Gradual enlightenment is the basis of sudden enlightenment. There is actually still a sequence here. In this world, the mirror of the heart is covered with dust. If it is not wiped clean, it will accumulate dirt and become dull. How can there be a Buddha who is born to reach the other shore directly?
Chen Pingan smiled and added: "Both gathas are good and correct. The reason why I am chatting with you about this is because when I traveled to Qingluan Kingdom before, I heard from scholars on the way When the Master talked about Buddhism, he was very disdainful of the former and only praised the latter. In addition, in a few miscellaneous books similar to literati's notes, he also liked to treat the former with hidden derogatory meanings. I think it's just a little bit not good. ”
Ma Duyi smiled and said: “I rarely heard Mr. Chen talk about Buddhism before, but it turned out that I have been involved in it for a long time. Mr. Chen is really well-read and I admire him very much...”
Ma Duyi made a face and said, "No, I can't even speak anymore. "
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "This shows that your flattery skills are not enough. ”
After that, the three riders saw a scenic spot with a fairy spirit. It was a deep pool without an owner. In autumn, it was already as cold as in the severe cold season. There were seals carved on the stone walls. There is a vermilion cliff carving that has no evidence in the local county annals, "The ancient wall is decorated with colorful dragons with gold tails, and the rain workers ride into the autumn pool water." The three of them looked up and saw that there were indeed some traces of painting on the wall, and the posture of a dragon could be vaguely seen. The water at his feet was green, and there were no fish or shrimps.
Chen Ping'an withdrew his gaze and reached into the water. Feeling the coolness, he remembered for no reason the Ruan's shop built on the riverside in his hometown. Facing the gloomy water in the Longxu River, this deep pool is actually suitable for tempering swords, but for some reason, there are no immortal swordsmen cultivating here. Chen Pingan suddenly withdrew his hands, and it turned out that the water was actually cold. It is not pure. It is mixed with a lot of sinister and filthy air, just like a mess. Although it will not immediately hurt the body, it is a bit far away from the word "pure". No wonder, this is a monk's sword refining master. Taboo.
There must have been stories here in the early years.
Probably like the Flying Eagle Castle and Upper Terrace in Tongye Island.
Chen Pingan traveled to Meigla. In the country, when walking through the countryside and county towns, there will be children who are not used to seeing horses, and when walking deep into the reed flowers, they will also encounter seemingly ordinary traveling wild cultivators from time to time, as well as people beating gongs and drums on the streets of the county town. The bustling wedding procession traveled thousands of miles and traveled across mountains and rivers. Chen Ping'an and the others also accidentally encountered the ruins of a deserted tomb overgrown with grass and found an ancient sword with only the hilt buried in the tombstone. Unknown to them, thousands of years later, Although the sword was full of energy, it looked like a good spiritual weapon at first glance. However, it had been over the years and had not been warmed up. It was already on the verge of collapse. Ma Duyi wanted to go with it. Anyway, it was an ownerless thing. After some polishing and repairing, maybe it would be possible. It can still be sold at a good price. However, Chen Ping'an didn't agree, saying that this was a magic weapon used by Taoists to suppress the Feng Shui here, so that the evil and evil spirit would not spread around and become a disaster.
Ma Duyi. As a vaginal object, I couldn't see it, I just didn't care, so he smiled and said, "Then pull it out."Ancient sword, if a demon really shows up to cause trouble in the barren tomb, we can simply defeat the demon and eliminate it, obtain the spiritual weapon, and accumulate merit. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Old accounts are so confusing. How do you know that there are no difficulties or twists in it." ”
Ma Duyi complained a little, “Mr. Chen is good at everything, but it’s too uncomfortable to do things.” "
Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Children who are not strong enough can smash rice bowls and porcelain, which is also a kind of refreshment. Zeng Ye can do it, but unlike the horse thief, Zeng Ye can kill him at will. You can do it too. Of course it's easier for me. ”
Chen Pingan said with emotion: “The gathering of people’s hearts is a very scary thing. The ancient temple is lonely. If a person walks into it, burns incense and worships the Buddha, he will feel awe. However, if it is noisy and crowded, he may not be afraid. To put it more extreme, it is forbidden to cut gold foil on the Buddha. Did it. "
While riding through the mass graves, Chen Ping'an suddenly looked back and saw no one and no ghosts around.
Once he stopped his horse to rest by a deep mountain lake, Zeng Ye picked up As the pebbles drifted away, Ma Duyi chose a secluded place alone, took off her boots, stretched out into the cool water, and smiled, when a dragonfly happened to linger and flew up to scratch her head.
Ma Duyi stopped, wanting it to stay a little longer.
In the distance, a young woodcutter carrying a bundle of firewood passed by accidentally and stopped, looking at it longingly. She mistakenly thought she was a fairy. The young man loved her, but felt ashamed.
Ma Duyi stretched out her hand to chase away the dragonfly, turned her head, stretched out her hand to twist the fox fur at her temples, and planned to peel it off suddenly. , to frighten the dumbfounded country boy.
As a result, Chen Pingan threw a pebble at her and flicked her finger off.
Ma Duyi turned around in anger, with her legs crossed. Swinging, splashing countless water.
The boy ran away quickly
He did not intend to tell his peers in the village that he saw such a beautiful fairy sister by the lake. , just keep it in mind.
In a prosperous county, even Chen Ping'an, who was not surprised, found it eye-opening.
There was a scholar who ran away drunk. , the clothes are not covering the body, the breasts are exposed, the steps are swaying, and it is very heroic, letting the book boy carry a bucket filled with ink, and the scholar uses his head as a pen to "write" on the street.
There are also servants, surrounded by buckets filled with well water, just waiting for their master to go crazy so that they can clean up the mess
It's not a tiring job, but it's hard every time. They rolled their eyes, they were really angry at the bookish master and dared not speak out.
When they asked the common people, they turned out to be a county captain with a great reputation and official status.
Chen Ping'an led his horse to stop on the street, and saw the county lieutenant fell down on the road exhausted. He turned around and saw the young man smelling of alcohol, with wine stains and ink stains all over his body. The smell was extremely weird. He slapped the street hard and laughed loudly: "I use calligraphy toRespect the gods, do you dare to ask the gods if they have the courage to give me some advice? Where are the sages of the ages? Come, come, have a drink with me..."
The young man suddenly wailed, "I once saw the princess fighting with the carrier in the capital, and I accidentally learned the true meaning of calligraphy. See you again, princess. When I pick flowers at the temple, I get the calligraphy inspiration again. Your Highness, please take a look at the calligraphy I wrote for you. ”
Zeng Yecuo said in astonishment: “Mr. Chen, I don’t recognize a word of what this guy wrote.”
Chen Ping'an held back his laughter, pointed to the street, and said softly: "It's written in cursive script to write poems about girlfriends' resentment. As for the content of the cursive script, the sentence I just finished writing is the bright moon shining through the window screen, autumn waves." I am so charming that I want to slip away and drink fermented wine with you. Well, he probably imagined writing a love poem for himself in the tone of the woman he admired. But these words are really well written, couldn't be better. I have never seen such good cursive writing, regular script and running script. I have seen masters, but this is the first time I have seen cursive writing at this level. "
At the end, Chen Ping'an said: "Don't think that the county captain is talking nonsense. His words really have divine meaning, which means that the aura here is weak, and neither the door gods nor ghosts can survive forever. , otherwise I really have to show up and bow down to him.
Chen Pingan suddenly laughed, led the horse and strode forward towards the bookworm and infatuated man who was drunk on the street with hazy eyes and said, "Let's go buy a copybook from him. If you can, How much is what! This deal is a guaranteed profit! It's infinitely better than your hard work in picking up leaks! But the premise is that we can live for a hundred or hundreds of years. "
Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi looked at each other and felt that Mr. Chen must have lost his mind and gone crazy.
Chen Pingan came to the scholar lying on his back and asked with a smile: " I have as good a wine as the Immortals. Can I buy some words with you? "
The man shook his head with drunken eyes, "Begging me? "
Chen Pingan smiled and nodded, "Please.
The man suddenly burst into tears and cried, "You are not the princess, what do you want me to do?" What do you want me to do? Go, go, go, I won’t sell you a word, not a single word. "
Chen Pingan turned his head to look at Ma Duyi. When everyone's attention shifted, he flicked his wrist and took out a pot of Shuijing Xianren brew from Fengweidu from the nearby objects, and loosened the horse's reins. , opened the mud seal, squatted down, and handed the wine bottle to the scholar, "Whether you want to sell it or not depends on drinking my wine. If you still don't want to drink it, just treat it like I respect the cursive calligraphy you wrote on the street. "
The man sat up, took the wine bottle, raised his head to pour the wine, drank it in one breath, threw away the empty wine bottle, stood up unsteadily, and grabbed Chen Ping'an's arm, "But And wine?
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "There are still more, but not much left."
The man said happily: "Let's go to that shabby government office. I'll write for you. You can have as much as you want, as long as you have enough wine!" "
Ma Duyi rolled his eyes.
Where is the backbone of the scholar?
Zeng Ye was a little happy. It was rare to see Mr. Chen in such a happy mood.< /p>
When they arrived at the government office, the scholar pushed away the messy books on the desk and asked the boy to get rice paper and spread it out while polishing ink. Chen Pingan put down a pot of wine in the scholar's hand.
On the walls, there are crazy cursive writings that even the sober readers cannot recognize.
The scholar drank wine and burped, and asked: "Tell me, what do you want me, a lunatic, to write? Which wise general, minister, minister, and minister do you want me to write? Forget it, I don't want to know. "Whatever you want to write doesn't count. I can write whatever I want."
Scholars really write whatever comes to mind, often with countless numbers written in one stroke. Zeng Ye always felt that the deal was a loss.
In the end, the scholar, who was a good drinker but not a good drinker, wrote dozens of copybooks of different sizes, and was completely drunk and fell to the ground.
Chen Pingan spent a total of five pots of Shuijing Xianren Brewing, Laolongcheng Osmanthus Brewing and Shujianhu Wutiao Wine.
The reason why he could drink so much was not because he was a scholar, but because he drank half the pot and spilled most of it. In the eyes of the distressed Ma Duyi, it was a waste of natural resources.
Chen Pingan collected the copybooks and left the government office.
The three of them led the horses away, and Ma Duyi couldn't help but ask: "The word is good, I can see it, but is it really that good? These fairy brews are worth a lot of money, converted into Silver, a copybook written in cursive,
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Is it really worth tens of thousands of taels of silver?"
Chen Pingan got the copybook. , full of joy, as if he had drunk too much wine, and said with certainty: "You don't believe it? Then just wait. One day you come here again, this street will definitely be famous all over the world. Thousands of years later, even that The scholar passed away, but the whole county will be honored and remembered by future generations."
Sanqi slowly left this small county. At this time, the people in the county still only regarded the bookish county captain. He treated it as a joke, but he didn't know how envious the calligraphy masters and countless literati of later generations would be if they were lucky enough to see that person's elegance in person.
This Mid-Autumn Festival, every household in Meiglai Country is reunited with relatives.
On the other side of Shihao Country, it’s hard to say.
Next year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, Mei Glaze Country may be in the bleak situation of Shihao Country now.
There are many monsters in the mountains and wilderness.
Autumn turns to winter again.
When Chen Ping'an was about to finish his trip to the Plum Glaze Country, and when it was time to return to Shujian Lake, one day he saw a high cliff in a remote and remote mountain with his outstanding eyesight. , there was a ragged old ape hanging upside down, wrapped in iron chains. He sensed Chen Ping'an's gaze. The old ape was ferocious, grinning, and although he did not roar, his violent aura was thrilling.
There is also a man-made grotto near the old ape. When Chen Pingan looked there, someone stood up and looked at Chen Pingan. It was a young monk with a withered face. The monk Xiang ChenpingPut your hands together and salute silently.
Chen Ping'an also imitated the monk's bow and folded his hands, and gently returned the salute.
Ma Duyi asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Chen Pingan shook his head and said nothing.
It wasn't until he walked out of the mountain range that Chen Ping'an said: "There was an eminent monk with great perseverance who subdued an unruly ape who had manifested his inner demons over there."
Ma Duyi clicked his tongue. He was amazed and said: "He is actually able to manifest inner demons. Isn't this monk an earthly immortal?"
Chen Ping'an nodded, "He is an extraordinary person."
Over the grotto, the young monk sat back on his futon cross-legged, stood up again, stepped out of the grotto, walked against the wind, floated in the air, and looked at the old ape who was gradually calming down. There was such a look in the latter's eyes. Complexity, anger, hatred, prayer, pity, ridicule, to name a few.
The monk turned his head and looked around, seemingly confused.
Why is my mind so strange today?
It had previously met the Earth Immortal monks who were riding swords or riding the wind, but it had never looked twice.
If the young monk had some enlightenment, he smiled, lowered his head and put his palms together again, chanted a Buddha chant, then returned to the grotto and continued to sit.
An old monk with an indifferent expression and quiet eyes appeared in the mass grave where the ancient sword was nailed into the tombstone. Under the ground, there was a gloomy atmosphere. Even if he realized that he was probably a The Earthly Immortals in the Yang Realm, those fierce ghosts and ghosts hiding in the roots of the mountains, still have hard-to-change nature. The evil spirits gather and try to break out of the ground. However, every time a fierce ghost rises to the surface, sword energy immediately falls like rain. Under the ground, there is a wailing array. Array.
Of course the old monk was not afraid of these evil things, he just frowned and said to himself: "It's strange. You are not afraid of the golden elixir aura deliberately revealed on my body, but you are afraid of a young man who looks different? ”
It’s rare to stay in a fairy inn.
Ma Duyi fell back on the soft quilt, her face full of intoxication. She can endure hardships but also enjoy blessings.
Zeng Ye didn’t think anything was wrong and practiced alone in the house.
Chen Pingan and Xianjia Inn asked for a copy of the Xianjia Residence Newspaper. The people in the imperial court of Meiglai State also started to quarrel, but the quarrel was not about whether they should stop Da Li Barbarian, but how. Defend the territory to the death.
You must know that this is the decision made by the monarchs and ministers of Meigla Kingdom under the dangerous situation that the capital of Shihao Kingdom has been destroyed.
And the chaotic Shihao Kingdom finally welcomed a new emperor, Han Jingling, the vassal king known as the "Wise King", the father of Huang He, who did not lose a single thing on the battlefield. The border general who died in one fell swoop became the leader of the Shihao Kingdom's military generals. As a friend of the new emperor Han Jingling, Huang He also received the imperial title and became the minister of the Ministry of Rites. Father and son were in the same court, and a large number of Huang's children were raised. Chickens and dogs ascended to heaven. , jointly control the government, and have unlimited glory.
From the capital of Shihao Kingdom to other places, there is an endless stream of civil servants and military generals who die calmly, even if it is just a small thing like posting the door gods of other countries on their doorsteps.Still don't want to do things.
Some of the descendants of the family who did not want to be killed by their own masters secretly put up portraits of the door gods of the ancestors of the two surnames of Li and Yuan Cao. Some of them were cruel and simply tied up the family master. Get up, lest you run to tear down the door gods and scold them as unworthy descendants and unworthy of their ancestors.
All living beings are in various states, and they know their own joys and sorrows.
In this wonderfully written letter, the trivial matters that were written as a post-dinner conversation turned out to be life-and-death events and family-breaking events. The tragedy of migration.
Shu Jian Lake is more earth-shaking and breathtaking than the inconspicuous Shihao Kingdom.
At the beginning of autumn this year, Su Gaoshan began to "settling accounts after autumn."
The mountains of Shujian Lake, led by Lisu Island, Oriole Island, Qingzhong Tianmu and other islands, all surrendered to the Song family of Dali, willing to hand over half of their family fortune, as well as the significant genealogy of the ancestor hall. .
Su Gaoshan held a banquet at the Fan family's residence in Chishui City, but it was just in his name that he sent a military general who was only a third-grade general, and several military officers from various places. The monks who accompanied the army were responsible for showing up to entertain the heroes.
Su Gaoshan was not willing to give even this little face to those Shujianhu local snakes who obediently clung to him.
Chen Pingan was not surprised at all.
Previously, he used the Qingxia Island Enshrinement Plaque and the Peace and Peace Plaque to submit a "famous invitation" to the Great Li Cavalry, saying that he wanted to meet the general. The reply Su Gaoshan finally sent back was very simple, As soon as I heard it, it was the words spoken by the general, just two words, "Get out of here."
Not to mention angry or aggrieved, Chen Pingan was just a little helpless.
As for Qingxia Island, which has lost Liu Zhimao's seat, it is not far behind. The forces headed by Su Lin Shimao Tian Hujun and Jin Dan Yu Hui, as well as several Jin Dan monks who are powerful enough to control the wind and rain in Shujian Lake, are also there. At the banquet, they were seated at Fan's Mansion in Chishui City, but the location was not at the front, not even as good as Tianmu Island.
This is Shanze Yexiu of Shujian Lake.
Dare to fight hard and be able to admit defeat. When the situation is good, he can be the ancestor; when the situation is bad, he can be the grandson.
Chen Pingan guessed that there are some island monks who are not willing to give up half of their family property with both hands, but it should not be necessary for the Great Li cavalry and the monks accompanying the army to take action. Tan Yuanyi of Lisu Island and the golden elixir of Oriole Island The forces including the couple will help Su Gaoshan settle all the "little troubles". General Su will be happy to give those heads and island property as gifts to Su Gaoshan wherever he needs to work hard.
But the key reason for Su Gaoshan's success in Shujian Lake is not only the outstanding military exploits of his cavalry and Shujian Lake Ye Xiu's appearance and detachment, but also the other reason. The unstoppable power of the Great Li general Cao Ping is also very important. Of course, the most important thing is that it is rumored that the Great Li vassal king Song Changjing will personally accompany a Song prince to inspect the confrontation between Cao Ping's cavalry and the Zhu Ying dynasty.That border.
Chen Pingan put down his newspaper.
Hands wrapped around sleeves, lost in thought.
There is currently no definite information about Liu Zhimao’s life or death.
Based on common sense, Su Gaoshan would still win over a great monk like Liu Zhimao who knew how to assess the situation. Moreover, Liu Zhimao was the first half of his family to join Da Li.
The problem lies in the group of foreign monks on Gongliu Island who Liu Laocheng described as "unpleasant faces", but their identities have still not been revealed.
It seems that this group of people determines Liu Zhimao’s life and death, and even Liu Laocheng can only hold his nose and admit it, leaving Su Gaoshan unable to add to his credit book and contribute to Da Li. Try to get one more Nascent Soul at your fingertips to enshrine.
What a great background.
Chen Pingan rubbed his eyebrows.
Could it be the Tongye Sect whose vitality was severely damaged? Grit your teeth, make up your mind, and move to Shujian Lake?
But this requires paying a huge price. The monks can move to other continents in a mighty manner, but they cannot take away the landscape and atmosphere that have been under the jurisdiction of the Tongye Sect for thousands of years.
When it comes to the great migration between the two continents, apart from the aura of the Paradise Paradise, there is nothing else to say.
And with such a big movement, Tongye Sect is already distracted. During the migration process, tigers and wolves will look around, and they will definitely bite the fat. When it comes to the avenue, even a sect like Taipingshan Fuji Sect is not lacking in integrity. , as long as he decides to take action, he will show no mercy.
Furthermore, the monks of Tongye Sect, with their eyes higher than their heads, are used to being the leader of the immortal family in the continent. If they are really willing to go to the small Aquarius Continent to take root, they may even give it to the leader of a secular dynasty. Li Song family, living under someone else’s roof?
If it is the Fuji Sect, it seems more reasonable.
But the actions of the monks against Liu Zhimao, especially the "little plot" to harbor evil intentions against him, were unreasonable.
Chen Ping'an stood up and came to the window. This Xianjia Inn was built on the bank of the river, with a wide view. The scene outside the window showed the surging river, and the boats coming and going, falling into the field of vision as small as corn.
The water network of Meiglai Country is intertwined and the rivers are spread widely. This is probably one of the reasons why people dare to fight to the death in the temple.
On the river, there is a long stretch of warships slowly going upstream. However, the water surface is vast, and even though there are tens of thousands of people with banners, they are still a fraction of the size of a giant ship.
Chen Pingan was lying on the windowsill.
Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi came together, saying they wanted to visit the water temple on the Chunhua River. It is said that making wishes is particularly effective, and the water god also likes to tease ordinary people.
Chen Pingan was not in the mood, so he asked them to visit the ancestral temple on their own, but reminded Ma Duyi that after entering the ancestral temple, they were ghosts wearing fox skins, so they had to apologize first and talk to the water god. The temple is the first to express his intention, otherwise as usual, he will offend the gods of the mountains and rivers, and if there is a conflict, you will not take care of it. At that time, he can only apologize and spend money to eliminate the disaster. Anyway, with that godly money, Ma Duyi and Zeng tuckIf he pays for it himself, he cannot be blamed on Chen Ping'an. Ma Duyi smiled and said, "I know. After traveling so far, Mr. Chen still has to talk about these rules."
Chen Ping'an couldn't laugh or cry.
So far away? You and Zeng Ye have just crossed the territory of two vassal states.
However, Chen Ping'an didn't say this. He waved his hand and motioned for them to go out and play. Otherwise, I would have to stab Ma Duyi again.
When Zeng Ye closed the door, Chen Pingan took off the sword gourd and threw it to Zeng Ye, saying it was just in case.
Zeng Ye was naturally overjoyed, but as soon as the door was closed, Ma Duyi snatched it away and hung it on her waist.
Zeng Ye had no idea.
Chen Pingan smiled knowingly.
Isn’t it natural for men to give way to some women, and for strong men to give way to some weak ones, but at the same time, it is not a condescending gesture of giving?
Only in this kind of world will things gradually become error-free, slow and good.
All kinds of moral knowledge need to be put back into order.
The more you walk, the farther you go.
Think more, that’s all.
Chen Pingan, who was a little tired and a little relaxed, just lay on the window sill, closed his eyes, and took a nap.
The place where my heart is at ease is my hometown.
There is no place in my hometown where I can’t sleep.
In the Chunhua Jiangshui Temple dozens of miles away, an old man was lying on the beam of the temple hall, chewing chicken legs. He wore an apricot hairpin and embroidered clothes. He was very funny. Suddenly, He was so excited that he almost threw the greasy chicken legs on the heads of the pilgrims in the hall. This man was born in the water tribe. He had the good fortune to be appointed by a gentleman from Guanhu Academy, so he was able to build a golden body and enjoy it. The god of river water, the incense in the world, rose into the air, turned into nothingness, and passed through the roof of the hall. The old water god looked around, very panicked, bowed and worshiped in all directions, and said tremblingly: "Which saint is coming here? The little god is frightened. Terrified."
And the "chief culprit".
I was taking a nap while taking a break from my busy schedule.
Be moral, ward off all evils, and let the gods give way.
