Chapter 457: A lamp in the ancestral house in the alley

This Xianjia ferry will not go directly to Longquan County of Dali. After all, Baofengzhai has evacuated Niujiao Mountain, and the ferry has been almost completely abandoned. It is temporarily requisitioned by the Dali military in name. However, it is not a hub, and there are only a few ferries. They were the dignitaries of Dali who came to Longquan County to visit the mountains and rivers. After all, Longquan County is now in a state of ruins, and there are rumors that the vast Longquan County under its jurisdiction is about to be promoted from a county to a state. This means that in the officialdom of Dali, all of a sudden A dozen seats of high quality appeared out of thin air. With the overwhelming momentum of the Great Li cavalry, half of the Aquarius Continent was covered. This made the status of the local officials of the Great Li rise. The local officials with the household registration of the Great Li were like ordinary vassals. The "capital officials" of a small country were now sent to serve in various vassals in the south, and their promotion to one level was certain.

The ferry that Chen Ping'an is riding will dock at the ferry port of a small country called Qianhe Country. Qianhe Country has many mountains, weak national power, and barren land. It has different customs for ten miles and different pronunciations for hundreds of miles. It is a peaceful place that even the Li cavalry has not set foot in. The ferry is controlled by a cave on a mountain. The owner of Fuyin Cave is not only the national master of Qianhe Kingdom, but also the leader of a country's immortal masters. However, there are only dozens of genealogical masters in the entire Qianhe Kingdom, and the national master of Qianhe Kingdom is He was only in the Longmen realm, and his disciples had only three or two kittens and puppies, but they were incompetent. The reason why he was able to have a fairy family ferry was that the Fuyin Cave was once one of the ruins of the ancient Shattered Cave Heaven. There were several of them. The produce can be sold as far away as the south, but all the money earned is hard-earned money. There is not much summer money all year round, so there are no monks from other places who covet this place.

Chen Pingan plans to return to Longquan County first, and then visit Caiyi Country and Shushui Country. There are many matters in his hometown that urgently require him to go back and make decisions in person. After all, there are some things that require personal intervention and personal consultation with everyone. Dealing with the Li court is like buying a mountain. Wei Bo can help, but he cannot sign a new "land deed" with Da Li on behalf of Chen Ping'an.

There were some twists and turns along the way. A group of immortal masters from Qingfeng City thought that an ordinary horse could occupy a place on the bottom of the ferry, accompanying the spiritual birds and beasts they had carefully raised and trained. A kind of humiliation, and a little dissatisfied, he wanted to toss in some tricks, of course the method was relatively hidden. Fortunately, Chen Ping'an took good care of his beloved horse, which he privately nicknamed "Quhuang", and often let Feijian Fifteen Passing away quietly to avoid accidents, you must know that Chen Ping'an is very grateful to this loving horse that has been with him all the way over the past few years.

So when Qu Huang was frightened at the bottom of the ferry, Chen Ping'an felt it and made the first and fifteenth day of the first lunar month directly disappear, penetrate the layers of decks, directly reach the bottom cabin, and block a Strange beasts on the mountain bite Qu Huang.

Chen Pingan then rushed over, but was stopped by the ferry attendant guarding the bottom of the ferry. Chen Pingan understood this, reached out and grabbed the young man's shoulder, and half dragged and half dragged him to where Qu Huang was. When Chen Ping'an, who had an indifferent expression, walked into it, all the spiritual birds and beasts shivered and crawled to the ground, especially the beast near Quhuang. Its whole body was as black as ink, except for its four legs, which were white, like a dog, but in size. As big as a calf,According to the fairy book bought from Daoxuan Mountain, he should be one of the descendants of the ancient ferocious beast Mountain Dog. Otherwise, the real Mountain Dog would not be variegated, but the Mountain Dog lineage has a violent temperament. This is not the same as the Mountain Dog. The mountain ape is somewhat similar.

When the spirit beast, the descendant of the mountain dog, saw Chen Pingan, it was more fearful than the other docile spirit beasts lying on the ground in the cabin, and curled up with its tail between its legs.

Chen Pingan let go of the ferryman's shoulder. The man rubbed his shoulder and said with a flattering smile: "Master, it's probably because your horse has a conflict with the beast next door. This is a common thing on ferries. I will separate them and move a nest for the young master’s beloved horse. There will definitely be no more accidents.”

Chen Ping’an glanced at Qu Huang and Hushan Gou. The fence between the descendants is empty.

There should be some low-grade talismans posted between the cage fences. Once the spiritual birds and animals cross the thunder pool, the ban will be triggered immediately, so that the ferry can come forward to "persuade", but it can be The birds and beasts that the monks take on the ferry are mostly spiritual and will not cause trouble to their owners. Otherwise, the money will be used to eliminate disasters, and the path of the cultivators will be damaged. Once they encounter problems that cannot be solved by money, it will be even more troublesome.

It’s just that in the eyes of the owner of this mountain dog descendant, what will happen if he messes with a roadside guy who can lead a horse to board a ship?

Chen Pingan reached out and touched Quhuang's head. He stepped lightly on the ground without much panic.

In the mountains south of Shujian Lake, Qu Huang followed Chen Pingan and saw the world.

Chen Pingan took back his hand and said with a smile: "Are you trying to destroy my road?"

The ferryman was stunned for a moment, guessing that the horse owner would most likely start an army. Asking for guilt, I just never expected that it would be so high-level. Is this meant to be ripped off?

That's good.

The young handyman was overjoyed and wished the two sides would fight.

Anyway, no matter what his background is, no matter why this person is able to silence those beasts, as long as you offend the Qingfeng City monks, will you get good results?

The group of immortal masters from Qingfeng City have always been guests of this ferry, and they are very familiar with each other. Because of the production of Fuyin Cave in Qianhe Country, a certain kind of spiritual wood was used by the castle that seemed to belong to a dynasty. The small country's fox hills and fox charms loved it, so this kind of spiritual wood that can moisturize fox skin was almost wrapped up by the immortal master from Qingfeng City, and then resold to the Xu family, which doubled the profit. As for why Xu from Qingfeng City didn't make this trip in person, the ferry people also asked out of curiosity. The monks from Qingfeng City laughed loudly and said that Xu would care about others making such a small profit from them? With this free time, the descendants of the Xu family who have a good way of making money have already made more money from the gods. The Xu family of Qingfeng City sits on a fox hill, but is used to being the God of Wealth who only needs to count money at home.

A group of immortal masters wearing snow-white fox furs slowly walked into the bottom cabin, which was a bit eye-catching.

The fox fur in Qingfeng City can not only keep warm in winter, but also remove cold in summer.Summer is nothing more than one thick and one thin, but in the summer, wearing a fox fur, no matter how thin it is, still looks awkward, but this is a kind of amulet for monks walking down the mountain, the face of Qingfeng City, in the north of Aquarius Continent The area is still quite big. Especially now, the head of the Xu family in Qingfeng City is said to have had a great opportunity. His Taoist companion helped him obtain a valuable piece of armor from the Li Zhu Cave. Bai Chi Gantou has made further progress, and the family also owns a large Li Taiping Wu. Shipai, the rise of the Xu family in Qingfeng City is unstoppable.

Chen Pingan said nothing, his boxing frame was still loose, and he was a sick man. However, he came to the group of monks in a few steps and knocked down one of them with one punch. Among them was a man with a round face. The girl rolled her eyes on the spot and fainted to the ground. In the end, only a handsome young man was left in the middle. Sweat dripped from his forehead and his lips moved slightly. He probably didn't know whether to say something strong or soft.

Chen Pingan stood in front of him with his hands in his sleeves and asked some inside stories about Qingfeng City.

After all, whether it is the Xu family in Qingfeng City or the mountain monkey in Zhengyang Mountain, they all have an old account in Chen Pingan's heart. Even if Chen Pingan walks to Shujian Lake again, he will not change the story with both parties. .

The pampered young monk saw that his close relatives and personal followers had already fallen to the ground, so he didn’t care about losing face

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

My son, my character has lost its character. I pour beans out of a bamboo tube, and I know everything and talk about everything.

Chen Pingan asked in detail, and the young monk answered seriously.

For example, the teacher is asking the young children about their lessons.

The ferryman guarding the cabin on the bottom floor was in a daze when he saw this scene. What is going on? Don’t they all say that the immortal masters and monks who came out of Qingfeng City all have great magical powers?

Chen Ping'an turned his head and looked at the handyman who was busy with calculations in his mind. At the same time, he slapped the young monk behind him on the forehead with his hand. With a plop, the latter straightened up and fell backwards.

This is called sharing difficulties.

Chen Ping'an looked at the frightened handyman and asked, "Can I get some fairy money by doing this kind of thing?"

The young handyman shook his head. , said in a trembling voice: "No, no, I didn't even take any money. I just wanted to show my courtesy and get acquainted with these immortal masters. In the future, maybe they would give me a few casual words, and I would have a way to make money." "

Chen Pingan asked: "Who came up with the idea?"

The young handyman said without hesitation: "It was the idea of ​​the immortal masters of Qingfeng City. Hands, please forgive me..."

Chen Pingan lightly stamped his foot, and the young man's body bounced, and he woke up in a daze. Chen Pingan smiled and said: "This man on the ferry Brother, you said that the idea of ​​killing my horse was yours."

The young man from Qingfeng City was furious. He sat on the ground and began to curse.

Chen Pingan walked out of the bottom cabin, smiled at the young man and said, "Don't kill anyone."

The young man struggled to stand up and walked towards the ferryman with a grin, "Good guy, if you dare to cheat me, I won't peel you off..."

The young man suddenly turned his head. Looking over the cabin door, the man in green shirt was stopping. Turning around to look, he quickly smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't kill anyone, I don't dare to kill anyone, just to give this bad guy some memory."

Chen Pingan walked out of the cabin.

Evil people will be punished by evil people.

It’s hard to say who is more evil, the Qingfeng City monk or the handyman.

However, deep down in his heart, Chen Ping'an actually hated the ferryman with weak hands and feet. However, in the future life, he would still have no good way to deal with these "weak people". On the contrary, facing those arrogant and domineering monks on the mountain, Chen Pingan had more opportunities to take action. Just like Han Jingling, the prince of Shihao Kingdom who met on a narrow road on a snowy night that year, he killed him as soon as he was told. No matter what the prince is, the emperor can kill him when he comes to the lawless Beiju Luzhou.

Chen Pingan came to the bow of the ferry, held on to the railing, and walked slowly.

Zhengyang Mountain and Qingfeng City are both thriving now.

Especially the former. Li Tuanjing, who is the number one person in the Five Realms on Aquarius Continent, has become more and more powerful after his liberation. Fenglei Garden is destined to be a long and humiliating period in the past hundred years. Dormant period. If the new garden master Jianxiu Yellow River and Liu Baqiao are unable to quickly reach the Nascent Soul realm, they may be suppressed by Zhengyang Mountain and unable to breathe in the next few hundred years.

As for the Xu family of Qingfeng City, they had previously sold the hilltop in Longquan County at a low price. They were obviously more optimistic about the Zhuying Dynasty and Guanhu Academy. Now that the situation was clear, they hurriedly made up for it. According to the young monk, Just at the end of last year, she got into a relationship with the Yuan family of Shangzhu Kingdom. She has a side-line in-law outside the eldest house, the Xu family's legitimate daughter, and is married to a concubine of the Yuan family in Dali Capital City. The Xu family of Qingfeng City also works hard Sponsored an iron cavalry controlled by the Yuan family's children.

Look.

No matter friend or foe, everyone is busy.

On the road, everyone is vying for the first place.

When Chen Pingan thought about his situation, he laughed at himself.

In one fell swoop, he broke through the bottleneck of the five realms of pure martial arts and advanced to the six realms. This was something that Chen Pingan could easily do before he entered Shujian Lake. At that time, he was near his hometown and wanted to help the fallen Shan Cui. Look at the old man named you. After you beat him to the strongest level three, he punched more than a million times on his own, and finally he has the strongest five level martial artist in the world. I think he can make me barefoot. When the old man punches later, he should be a little more reserved and suffer less pain. Chen Ping'an didn't care too much about the gift of martial arts. Even if there was another opportunity like the old dragon city's sea dragon, he should still fight it off with one punch.

I never thought that this delay would take another nearly three years.

As for replenishing the Five Elements natal objects and rebuilding the Changsheng Bridge, let’s not mention it. According to A Liang, it is “I have a watermelon peel sword technique, and the sword will be there wherever it slides.”Here, just let it go."

Chen Pingan smiled knowingly.

Turns his head and saw the group of Qingfeng City monks who came to apologize. Chen Pingan ignored them, and they were generally sure After Chen Ping'an had no intention of relenting, he left angrily.

Then the ferry owner also came to accuse him and vowed that he would punish the troublemaker severely.

< p>Chen Pingan didn't pay much attention to it, just saying that he had learned his lesson.

The ferry docked at the Fuyin Cave mansion in Qianhe Country. If it had been the past, Chen Pingan would have just immersed himself in the journey. Once, Chen Pingan went to visit the owner of Fuyin Cave. Perhaps he knew about the turmoil on the ferry. The old monk of Longmen Realm, the dignified master of Qianhe Kingdom, was still very enthusiastic. Chen Pingan shamelessly asked some questions. The old monks are familiar with the rough inside story after the Cave Heaven Paradise was broken. After all, Fuyin Cave is still quite famous. Although it is only about ten miles in diameter, the secret treasures and relics of the Immortal Family have been dug out by the seniors long ago. The spiritual energy of the cave is not very abundant. Later, by chance, the old monk took over this place. As a place of monasticism, he spread his branches and leaves. When facing visitors from all walks of life, he had his own set of polite expressions, which could be described in detail. Say, never say anything that shouldn't be said. When the old monk heard that Chen Pingan was from Dali, he became even more enthusiastic and insisted on keeping Chen Pingan for a few days. Chen Pingan resisted, so the old monk gave him a gift. As a parting gift, the Nine-Gong Ge Treasure Box is a nine-grid magic weapon carved from several Fuyin Cave specialties. In fact, the price is not high. The market price in Qianhe Country is around twenty snow coins. For a secular dynasty, , Of course it is a sky-high price, but in the eyes of the monks on the mountain, it is not a rare gift.

After Chen Pingan accepted the small treasure box, he gave Fuyin Cave a pot of Beetail Dushuijing Immortal Brew, Longmen Realm. When the old monk heard that it was the wine produced by the Fengwei Ferry, he was very happy and invited Chen Ping'an to come to Fuyin Cave next time he passed by Qianhe Country. , No, but Qianhe Kingdom has some unique scenery that is not found elsewhere. I dare not say that it will make the monks forget to leave. If you only see it once, it will definitely be a worthwhile trip. He, the national master of Qianhe Kingdom, who is a joke, is willing to accompany Chen Let's travel together safely.

The old monk personally sent Chen Ping'an to the border of Qianhe Country before returning home.

There was a young direct disciple beside him. Puzzled and confused as to why the master would go to such great lengths, the old monk from the Longmen Realm lamented: "On the road of cultivation, as long as you can form good relationships, no matter how big or small, don't miss it. "

The young disciple seemed to have enlightenment. The old monk was afraid that the disciple would go astray, so he had to remind him: "At your age, you still have to practice diligently and concentrate on enlightenment

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

Tao, don’t be too distracted by the world’s sophistication, just know the pros and cons. Wait until the day when you are like Master, so rotten that you can’t walk on the mountain road, then you can do it again. These things. As for the so-called master, in addition to teaching you the Dharma, you also have to do these helpless things that may not be in line with your heart, so that you can teach your disciples.The path of spiritual practice for inner disciples will become wider and wider in the future.

The old monk rubbed his disciple’s head and sighed: “The last time you went down the mountain alone to practice, the master was actually watching the ridiculous behavior you did with the powerful children of Qianhe Country. If it weren’t for You are just acting on occasion, thinking that this is a good way to build relationships, but in fact you don’t really like it, otherwise Master will be disappointed in you. People who practice Taoism should know what the true foundation of a life is, and there is no need to care about those human relationships. Where? Remember, outside of practice, everything is false. "

The young disciple was horrified.

The old monk smiled and said: "I just want to take this opportunity to clear up the confusion in your heart. The twenty pieces of snow money sent by Master would not be in vain. ”

The young disciple bowed and said, “My teacher has a profound kindness, which I will always remember in my heart.” ”

The master of Fuyin Cave, stroking his beard and smiling, walked with his proud disciples who had high hopes on the ridge path with a wide view.

Chen Pingan was riding a horse with his sword in his back. , continuing north from the northern border of Qianhe Kingdom

Of course he could not have guessed that he had previously visited Fuyin Cave Mansion and allowed an old monk from the Longmen Realm to take the opportunity to wake up a Yibo disciple.

p>

On a hot summer day with a slanting wind and drizzle, Chen Pingan, one man and one horse, handed in the pass and successfully passed the Dali border pass.

This time he returned to Longquan County and chose a new route. The road did not take the route between Hongzhu Town and Qidun Mountain.

On this road, there was heavy rain, and the humidity and heat were so intense that Chen Pingan almost mistakenly thought he was walking in Shujian Lake like a steamer in summer.

It's hot in the summer, but it's cool in autumn.

Crickets were chirping at night.

The sun was setting under an ancient pine tree on a mountain top. I saw a heroic scribe with his bare chest and belly, holding a feather fan, surrounded by beautiful maids, singing sweet songs, and further away, stood two old men breathing heavily, both of whom were obviously practitioners.

< p>Chen Ping'an led the horse past without squinting.

After leaving the mountain top, Chen Ping'an felt a little sad. The former Dali scholar, even the scholar Junyan who had been able to study in the Cliff Academy. , they still went to Guanhu Academy, or to the Sui Dynasty, or to the Lu Dynasty. According to Cui Dongshan, the scholars in the Dali literary world at that time were quarreling. Before, or before I started writing, I didn’t have the shame to speak out, and I didn’t have the confidence to write without mentioning the names of a few great scholars from other countries, reading a few books by famous writers from other countries, and finding a few relatives in other countries’ literary circles.

I don’t know what the situation is like in Dali Shilin today.

In fact, Chen Pingan is not interested either.

As dusk approaches, Chen Pingan finally passes by the east of Longquan County. After several inns, they entered the town. The wooden fence gate no longer existed. The town had been surrounded by a stone wall. There were no gate guards or soldiers at the door, allowing anyone to come and go. Chen Pingan passed the door and found Zheng Dafeng. The thatched hut still stands alone on the roadside. Compared with the neatly planned shops nearby, it looks a bit eye-catching. I guess it isBefore the price was agreed upon, Zheng Dafeng was not willing to move. Ordinary small town portals would naturally not dare to compete with the Longquan County House in the north and the county government in the town. If Zheng Dafeng dared not do anything, he would definitely be missing a copper coin. no.

Chen Ping'an was supposed to arrive in the town ten days later, but he drove a little faster and arrived a lot earlier.

When I first entered the customs, I sent a letter to Luoposhan through the border post station, telling them the approximate date of my return home.

Chen Pingan did not go to the ancestral home in Muping Lane first. He led his horse across the stone bridge and went to his parents' graves. He still took out cotton bags filled with soil from various places and added some soil to the graves. Earth, not long after the Qingming Festival, there were still some slightly faded red hanging paper on the grave, pressed by flat stones. It seemed that Pei Qian had not forgotten her instructions.

There are many unfamiliar faces along the way, which is not surprising. Most of the local people in the small town have moved to the new Longquan county town to the north of the mountain in the west. Almost everyone has moved into brand-new apartments. There is a pair of large stone lions guarding the courtyard at the door of every bright and high-end house. At the worst, there is also an expensive drum stone. It is no worse than Fulu Street and Taoye Lane in the past, and it still remains in the town. Most of them are old people who are unwilling to move. They still guard the increasingly deserted alleys and alleys. Then there are many new neighbors who have bought houses but cannot see them all year round. Even if they meet, they are like chickens and ducks. , each cannot understand the other's language.

Chen Pingan returned to the small town and walked to the Mud Bottle Alley, which had remained almost unchanged. However, no one lived in this alley now. The few remaining households had all moved. I went to the new county town and sold my ancestral home to a stranger. I got a large amount of money that I could never imagine in my dreams. Even if I bought a big house in the county town, it would still be enough to live and feed myself for several lifetimes. The ancestral home of Gu Can's family was not sold, but his mother also settled in the county town and bought one of the largest mansions in the county town. It has a deep courtyard, small bridges and flowing water, and is rich and noble.

Chen Ping'an took out a bunch of keys from a small object, opened the courtyard door, and asked Quhuang to loosen the reins and let him stay by himself in the small courtyard.

Chen Pingan opened the door. It was still the same, small, without any big additions. He moved an old bench and sat at the table for a while. Chen Pingan stood up and walked out of the yard. I read the door god and the Spring Festival couplets again, then stepped into the courtyard and read the word spring.

Twilight is falling.

Chen Pingan sat at the table and lit a lamp.

I thought about sitting there for a while and then going to Luolu Mountain to give them a surprise.

Just sitting for a while and a while, Chen Ping'an still didn't get up, he just wanted to sit for a while longer.

All the joys and sorrows start from here. No matter how many miles you travel or how many years you travel, you can only truly feel at ease when you end up here.

After his parents left, Liu Xianyang often lay on the bed here and talked nonsense about longing for the distant place. The little slug also often complained here about the unreasonableness of the adults.

If your parents are not far away, they will travel well. My parents are no longer here, so I have to travel in a safe way.

Over in Hongzhu Town, which is not very close to Longquan County, Pei Qian, a boy in green clothes and a girl in pink skirt sat on a high roof, looking longingly into the distance. The three of them were betting on who would win. It was the first time I saw that figure.

On Luolu Mountain, a barefoot old man was closing his eyes and relaxing on the second floor.

Zhu Lian began to admire the characters on the bamboo towers again and again.

The female ghost Shirou sat boredly on a bamboo chair under the eaves. After arriving at Luolu Mountain, she was tied up and felt uncomfortable.

The top of Piyun Mountain.

Wei Bo, the righteous god of the Northern Mountains of Dali, and the old dragon of Huang Tingguo stood side by side, one with a leisurely smile and the other with a solemn expression.

Overlooking the town in the distance.

In an alley, there was a dim light.

Shine the light.
