Chapter 509 The world is brightly lit

To the north of Huaihuang Kingdom is Baoxiang Kingdom, where Buddhism is prosperous and temples are like clouds.

When Chen Ping'an passed the border pass, he still had the customs clearance document stamped on it. If he had anything to do, he took it out and looked through it. The customs clearance document in hand was new. Wei Bo's handwriting was the same as before. The ultimatum has been stamped densely and is now left at the Bamboo Tower.

Chen Pingan still wears a bamboo hat on his head, carries a bamboo box on his back, and holds a hiking stick, trekking through mountains and rivers, seeking adventures alone. He occasionally wields a sword and walks in the wind. When he encounters a human city, he walks on foot. Now he is leaving the ferry boat. Chunlu Garden, where Dansong Lanqiao is located, still has a lot of mountains and rivers to travel.

In the market, hunchbacks are often seen among hunchbacks, and cripples are often seen among lame people.

The same is true for those who set foot on the road to immortality. They will see more monks, and of course there are also mountain spirits and lurking ghosts.

Chen Pingan walked all the way from Suijia City of Yinping Kingdom to the border of Baoxiang Kingdom, and saw many mountain spirits heading south.

However, except for the Yuhu County of Huaihuang Kingdom who took action once, Chen Ping'an just watched from a distance, condescendingly, overlooking the world on the mountain, and finally had the mentality of a Taoist.

But he still kept practicing boxing. After the Ghost Valley, Chen Pingan began to concentrate on practicing six-step walking, intending to collect two million punches.

If he hadn’t met the four people who were slaying demons before, Chen Ping’an originally wanted to kill the ghosts alone and then wait for the monks to return and stay in Jinduo Temple for a few more days. , asked about the Sanskrit content on the blue-paper gold-page scripture, naturally I split the Sanskrit text and asked the monk many times. The number of words was not many, a total of two hundred and sixty. After digging through the similar words, I must have It's not difficult to ask. Money and silk attract people's hearts, and demons arise when they think about them. People's hearts are full of ghosts and ghosts, and they are afraid of people. This is the case for the martial arts master and disciple at Jinduo Temple.

After passing the two southern cities of Baoxiang Kingdom, Chen Pingan found that there were many walking monks with haggard faces, begging for alms and doing asceticism, and asking for alms from all directions.

If Chen Pingan met him on the road, he would raise one hand in front of him and nod lightly in salute.

In addition to the many monks, temples, and incense in Baoxiang Kingdom, there are also countless martial arts warriors. On this day, Chen Pingan met a group of escorts heading to the northern city in the yellow sand. In addition to the trucks full of goods, There are horses and camel bells tinkling, and the escorts are all powerful. Even the women have dark skin, but they have a heroic appearance. Such women are actually good-looking.

A young man riding a horse saw the scholar in white in front of him. Not only was his snow-white robe covered with yellow sand and dust, but his head was also stained with a lot of it. He was slowly walking hard against the wind. He was faltering and kept being left behind by the convoy. Behind him, he slowed down his horse's hooves, bent down and took off a water bag hanging next to the saddle, and asked with a smile: "There is still more than a hundred miles to go in the Yellow Wind Valley. Do you have enough water on your body? If not, just take it." Go, you're welcome."

Chen Ping'an turned to look at the young escort with chapped lips and bleeding, pointed to the sword gourd on his waist, and said with a smile: "No, there is water in the pot. There is also a water bladder in the bamboo box.”

The young man put away the water bag and hung it up, then smiled and said: "The Yellow Wind Valley is extremely cold at night, and now the world is weird and increasingly unstable. More and more dirty things have entered the market, so major temples have recently had a large number of The monk walked out, and the young master tried to keep up with us. It was best to spend the night together at the Mute Lake in front of us. There were so many people and the energy was strong, so it was good to have someone to take care of us. There were many ghosts here at night, and we were not alarmist, so the young master Don't be left alone, but don't be too afraid. There are often eminent monks in Huangfeng Valley reciting sutras. If there are those filthy things, they may not dare to get close to harm others."

Chen Pingan nodded, "Thank you, young hero, for reminding me. I will definitely walk to the lake before dark."

Baoxiang Country is not among the ten countries including Yinping and Huaihuang. , so the common people and warriors in the martial arts have long been accustomed to spirits and ghosts. In the southeastern area of ​​Beiju Luzhou, spirits and people have been mixing together for countless years. Therefore, to deal with the evil spirits of ghosts, the government and the public of Baoxiang Kingdom have their own strategies to deal with them. . It's just that after the Mengliang Kingdom's "storyteller" withdrew the Thunder Pond Formation, spiritual energy poured into dozens of countries from the outside. The monks on the border were the first to sense such visions, and the ghosts and ghosts who had perfected their skills were not slow to do so. They were bustling with people. , businessmen seek profit, and ghosts will also follow their instincts to chase spiritual energy, so there are visions in Buyao and Yuhu counties of Huaihuang Kingdom, most of which flow from Baoxiang Kingdom into the south.

This is what the young escort said: the world has become increasingly unstable.

As the sun set, Chen Pingan walked to the small green lake that the local people called Mute Lake for some reason.

Several groups of people have gathered again, with bonfires going on and everyone drinking to ward off the cold.

That night, several rays of sword light shone from the west, sweeping towards the Yellow Wind Valley like a rainbow, and landed on the ground dozens of miles away from Mute Lake. The sword lights were crisscrossed, accompanied by the wails and roars of ghosts. After about a stick of incense, the bright sword light left the ground. During this period, everyone, whether they were bodyguards who knew some martial arts skills or businessmen passing by, were just drinking and chatting about which sword cultivator from the mountain came here to practice swordsmanship.

The swordsman has gone far away, and the night is deep. There are still few people taking a rest early by the lake. There are actually some naughty children, holding wooden knives and bamboo swords, competing with each other, randomly picking up the yellow sand, and chasing after each other with laughter.

Chen Ping'an drank the water from Baojing Mountain's deep stream inside the sword-raising gourd and sat by the lake with his back against the bamboo box.

I saw a woman wearing a power fence leaving the team alone, squatting by the water, wanting to drink water and wash her face. She raised one hand, with a string of snow-white bells hanging on her wrist. She lifted a corner of the fence, and Chen Ping'an had already withdrew his gaze, looking at the dumb lake that was said to be bottomless. It was rumored in the market that this small lake had not dried up for thousands of years. Even if you had a drought for several years, the lake level would not drop even a drop. Feet, no matter how heavy the rain continues, the lake water is not even an inch higher.

When a ripple appeared in the middle of the lake, there was first a small black particle, looking over there, and then quickly submerged into the water. The woman still seemed completely unaware.She just carefully took care of her forehead and temple hair. Every time she raised her hand and wrist, a bell rang softly, but it was covered up by the noise of people drinking and having fun by the lake.

A huge whirlpool appeared silently on the lake, and then a strange fish that was more than ten feet long suddenly jumped out. Its body was as black as ink. It suddenly opened its mouth towards the powerful woman, its teeth as sharp as battlefield knives. .

Chen Pingan sat cross-legged, motionless, holding his chin with one hand, looking at the man and the fish.

Eight people appeared at the same time from the eight directions of Dumb Lake, each holding a compass, and instantly smashed into the sand. Then they stood still, making fingers together, and stepping on the steps. In an instant, there was The silver line was like a rope, shooting towards the center of the lake. When the silver rope gathered at the center of the circle, a bright silver Bagua formation instantly appeared on the lake surface, which could compete with the moonlight.

The eight people should come from the same sect and cooperate with each other tacitly. Each of them reaches out to grab and pull out a silver thread from the compass on the ground. Then, with their fingers together, they move a little above the center of the lake, just like a fisherman setting up a net to catch fish. Eight more silver wires flew out to create a cage, and then the eight people began to spin in circles, constantly adding arc "fences" to the talisman array cage. As for the safety of the woman who was confronting the fish monster alone, the eight of them were not worried at all.

The fish monster with its bloody mouth opened already realized something was wrong when the compass hit the ground, and quickly closed its mouth, but the huge inertia made it still rush towards the man who had suddenly The woman Mi Li stood up, but the woman who refused to retreat but advanced took a step forward, jumped up high, and punched the fish monster into the lake and fell into the Bagua array. When the huge body touched the Bagua array, Gen Gua, the top of the fish monster's head suddenly hit a small hill, hitting the fish's head. The poor fish monster was bounced towards Zhen Gua. Suddenly the electric light flashed, making a crackling sound, and the fish monster slid with a jumping belt and fell into the Gua. Li Gua, there was a raging fire, it was so miserable, and then the fish monster tasted the spears and halberds that were poked out from the lake by ice picks, and finally transformed into the appearance of a little girl in black, and kept running, While wailing and wiping tears from his face, he avoided fire dragons and ice picks. Occasionally, he was hit by lightning bolts that made his whole body twitch and roll his eyes.

Seeing this scene, Chen Ping'an couldn't bear to look at it, so he shifted his gaze slightly and closed one eye.

I have seen a lot of ferocious spirits that do harm to one party. No matter what the fate is, when they first appeared, most of them were more majestic than the other. They said that Fan Yunluo's chariot in Ghost Valley and Skinny City was... Even the spirit that was confronting the ghosts in the Bronze Stinky City had a group of minions helping it carry a big wooden board. Chen Ping'an had never seen such a miserable fate before him.

Scene on the lake.

Looking at the people at the lake besides the immortal master, they were drinking heavily and cheering constantly. The naughty children were also hiding beside their elders. Except for the big fish jumping out of the lake at the beginning, opening its mouth to eat people. , a little scary, but now I’m not scared of any of them. The biggest excitement in Baoxiang Kingdom is when immortal masters catch monsters. As long as you see them,It’s more lively and festive than the Chinese New Year.

When the little girl, who was trying to stay one foot away from the Bagua formation on the lake, rushed into the Xun Gua, a log as thick as the mouth of a well fell down. The little girl in black had no time to escape and took a deep breath. With a breath, he raised his hands above his head and held on to the log. With snot and tears on his face, he choked and said: "That string of bells is mine. I gave it to a passing scholar who almost died. He said I had to go to Beijing to take the exam, and I didn’t have any money, so I gave it to him and promised to return it to me. It’s been more than a hundred years and he still hasn’t returned it to me. Wow, oh, oh, you’re a big liar..."

Chen Ping'an believed in the little girl's seemingly absurd words.

The fact that the water level of the Dumb Lake is neither increasing nor decreasing should be attributed to this little fish monster girl whose real appearance is not very pleasant. Over the years, merchants and passers-by have been stationed here. There have never been any casualties during the night. In fact, whether it is a person or a ghost, whatever you say, it is often not as good as a fact or a context. In any case, over the years, the local people and passing merchants should actually be grateful for her protection. No matter what her original intention was, this should be the case, and they should pay tribute to her. However, it is only natural for an immortal master to subjugate monsters and catch monsters. Therefore, even when the fish monster showed up, Chen Pingan knew that she had no murderous intention in her body. She was probably greedy for the string of bells, and added a With a joking heart, Chen Ping'an had naturally seen through that Mi Li woman. She was a hidden martial artist of the fifth realm...or maybe the sixth realm of Baoxiang Kingdom? In short, Chen Ping'an didn't stop him.

However, the string of bells on the hand of the Mi Li woman was originally the object of the fish monster girl, which was somewhat beyond Chen Pingan's expectation.

When the little girl revealed the truth, the Mili woman who fought back the enemy with one punch stood on the edge of the small green lake and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not taking you back to kill you, it's to lure you." According to Gou Guoguo's suggestion, there is a lack of a river woman over there. The national master has taken a liking to you and needs you to be in charge of water transport. This is not entirely a bad thing, but I have agreed in advance that I don't want to deceive you. You are the owner of this lake. Born as a water monster and naturally close to the water, the possibility of shaping a golden body to become a river woman is greater than that of those beings who die as heroic spirits. However, it is not a sure thing to succeed. There is no way. We have been with the imperial court for generations. Make good friends, and the National Master's Office gave you a large amount of immortal money. It was a bit unkind of me to forcibly kidnap you from Dumb Lake. The reason why I told you this is because I felt that you were reluctant to give me the bell back then. The Gou Kingdom scholar was even more kind. Not only did he not give you the bell, but he also kept it and made it a family heirloom. The bell was also a gift from his descendants to the Gou Kingdom Scholar. For this reason, he was promoted to the first rank and helped you by the way. The ancestor is about to receive a posthumous title. If you want to scold me, you can wait until you become He Po and then scold him hard. Now you just have to surrender, so as not to continue to suffer."

The little girl in black is still holding on to her hands. The slowly falling log, when her feet were about to touch the Bagua array on the lake, she wailed more and more: "I'm about to become a boiled fish, you big bad guys who like to fight and kill! I don't want to with youCome on, I like it here, this is my home, I'm not going anywhere! I don’t want to move away and become some kind of river woman. I’m still young, so what kind of mother-in-law I am! "

The Mi Li woman sighed, signaled to the other eight monks not to rush to close the formation, and said to the little water monster girl in a good-natured way: "Then let me discuss it with you? I can help you plead with the National Master, and I won’t earn the magic money for now, but you must follow me back to the master, or you have to move to another place, I can’t go all the way in vain, if I am empty-handed If you return, Master will blame you. There is a river near my master's gate, and now there is a water god sitting there. You first have a look at what it's like to be a water god. If one day you think it's good to be a river goddess, then I'll take you to the Dengmen Imperial Master's Mansion. How about that? ”

The little girl in black nodded lightly.

As a pure martial artist, the woman made hand gestures and muttered words. She was able to control the spiritual energy and removed the Sunda Gua.

The little girl jumped on the spot a few times, swaying back and forth with her arms bent, and then her eyes rolled around.

Don’t even think about running away. , otherwise braised fish and steamed fish are all possible.

The little girl sniffed and said with a sad face: "Then you should beat me to death. If I leave here, I might as well die." "

The Mi Li woman was a little helpless.

The other immortal masters seemed to find it fun, and none of them were in a hurry to close the net and catch the monster.

Suddenly , from far away in the sky, a dazzling sword light lit up, and it arrived in a blink of an eye. The sword hovered above everyone's heads. It was a young swordsman wearing a light purple robe. There was an intermittent thunder and lightning intertwined in his bun With a golden hairpin, he smiled and said: "This

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

The mute Lake Demon is extremely difficult to catch, so you have to use your tricks. How much did I buy. "

The girl Mi Li smiled and said: "But Mr. Jin from the Golden Crow Palace? "

The young swordsman smiled and said: "That's right. "

The woman shook her head and apologized: "This monster cannot be sold to Mr. Jin.

The young swordsman frowned and said, "I'll pay double the price. My master wife happens to be short of a maid." "

The woman hesitated for a moment, but still shook her head and said: "I'm sorry, I can't accept my order. This thing was promised by the master's sect to the Guoguo Imperial Master's Office. I can't make the decision tonight. ”

The wife of the palace lord of the Golden Crow Palace has a cruel temperament. Her birth object is a ghost-killing whip that is said to be refined from the green bamboo of Qingshen Mountain. Her favorite is to whip and kill her maids. Only one person around her can survive. Grandma Xi and the rest are all dead, and their bodies will be thrown into the thunder clouds on the top of the Golden Crow Palace, and they will not be reincarnated. However, the Golden Crow Palace is definitely not an evil cultivator who goes down the mountain to kill demons. , also spared no effort, and always likes to choose difficult ghost kings and monsters. It’s just that the master of the Golden Crow Palace, a dignified Jindan Sword Cultivator, is most afraid of the lady who is the daughter of Dayue Mountain Lord, so much so that the Golden Crow Palace’s master is the most fearful. All the female cultivators and maids did not dare to say a word to the palace master.

No.However, this deal is not entirely non-negotiable. The master sect and the national master of the Liangou Kingdom must not mind selling a favor to the powerful Golden Crow Palace.

The young swordsman raised his eyebrows, "You try to reason but you don't listen. You have to use my sword to be obedient? You, the little mother-in-law of Qingqing Mansion, a martial artist in the Sixth Realm, add some talismans, believe me or not. Why did you choose to buy that little demon after picking up your bad face?"

The young swordsman added with a sneer: "Don't worry, I will still buy it! From now on, I, Jin Le, will remember your Qingqing Mansion."

The girl Mi Li sighed in her heart, she couldn't bring down the entire sect because of herself. The monks of the Golden Crow Palace have always had a clear distinction between love and hate, and are moody. Once you are unreasonable, it will be extremely difficult to deal with.

She turned around and looked at the little girl holding her head in her hands to lie to her about the water monster.

Just when she was about to nod in agreement, there was a frail scholar who had taken off his bamboo hat and put it on the bookcase early, dressed in white, holding a folding fan, and stood up slowly on the edge of the Mute Lake where the sound of needle drops could be heard. , smiled and said: "If this can be considered reasonable, I think it is better not to be unreasonable at the beginning. It is just buying and selling by force. Anyway, whoever is more capable is the boss. There is no need to take off your pants and fart and poop."

The tip of the little girl in black's ears trembled slightly, she raised her head and said doubtfully: "It's wrong to take off your pants and fart. It's a cold night in the Yellow Wind Valley, so it's cool to expose your buttocks, but there's no way to poop, what? Don't you need to take off your pants?"

The scholar in white slapped his head with a folding fan and suddenly realized: "Yes."

The little girl was smiling happily, hovering in the air and sitting cross-legged. He crossed his arms and said, "The scholars are all dumbfounded."

Just thinking of the string of bells that were given as gifts to people with good intentions, the little girl in black started to sniffle and wrinkle her face again.

It’s all lies and pretense! That guy back then said that his greatest interest in life was not to be an official, but to write a popular fantasy novel. When the time came, he would definitely write an article about her, and it would be extremely long and colorful. He even wrote about her at that time. The name was already chosen, and it was called "The Big Water Monster of Mute Lake". At that time, he was so admired that he was almost drooling, and he was reminded that he must portray himself as more sinister and more moral. The scholar agreed readily.

Why can’t we see the string of bells now but not the article we have been waiting for for a hundred years? Even if the number of words is less, it doesn’t matter. < /p>

The scholar, who was wearing a snow-white robe that was still stained with dust, held a folding fan in his hand, cupped his fists and said, "I beg Young Master Jin of the Golden Crow Palace to raise your noble hand."

Another sword light came through the air. Hovering next to Jin Le was a graceful middle-aged female cultivator with a golden hairpin in her bun. She glanced at the scene on the lake and said with a smile: "Okay, this time I will practice in the small Under the nose of our great uncle, we have noBeing able to kill the ancestor Huang Feng, I know you are in a bad mood right now, but my uncle is still waiting for you over there. It's not good to wait for too long. "

Jin Le nodded, stretched out his finger, and pointed, "Qingqing Mansion, right? I remember it. Just wait for me to visit you soon." "

Then he pointed at the scholar in white who was secretly wiping the sweat on his forehead. After looking at him, he immediately stopped and deliberately opened the folding fan to gently fan the breeze. Jin Le smiled and said, "I know you are too. Monk, you are actually wearing a robe. He is a son. Don't pretend to be a grandson to me. Do you dare to tell me your name and disciple?

The man smiled and said: "If you don't change your name in business, you won't change your surname in office. I am a good man with the surname Chen." "

Jin Le looked gloomy and said to the middle-aged woman beside him: "Senior sister, I can't bear this. Just let me use one sword, just one sword. "

The Golden Crow palace maid reminded softly: "My uncle may be watching us." "

Jin Le snorted coldly at the scholar in white, "Hurry up and burn incense and pray to Buddha. Please don't fall into my hands in the future. ”

The two Golden Crow Palace sword cultivators suddenly rose up together, then moved away with their swords, dragging out two extremely long sword lights.

Qing Qing, who had already gathered around the Mi Li woman The eight immortal masters in the mansion breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the two sword lights disappear, but when they thought of Jin Le's visit, they all smiled bitterly, especially the Mi Li woman, but the nine of them felt heavy. Looking at the scholar in white who was wiping his forehead vigorously at the moment, they felt a little grateful. If this person hadn't stepped forward and shared the attention of Young Master Jin of the Golden Crow Palace, the nine of them would have been in even greater trouble tonight. It's hard to escape the fate of a fight. Although the Qingqing Mansion is inferior to the Golden Crow Palace, it really doesn't have to kneel down and kowtow when it sees the two sword cultivators.

No matter what, this is the case. Going down the mountain to catch monsters is really a bad thing.

In the future, it will not be difficult for the master to stop Jin Le from climbing the mountain to ask for swords. With the background of Qingqing Mansion, it will not be difficult for Qingqing Mansion to deal with Jinwu Palace from now on. , it is inevitable.

The Mili woman clasped her fists and said with a smile: "This Mr. Chen, my name is Mao Qiulu, from the Qingqing Mansion of Taozhi Kingdom in the northeast of Baoxiang Kingdom. I thank Mr. Chen for his generous words. "

The man smiled and said: "I am not speaking out for justice, I just want to buy the mute lake monster with the immortal masters. "

The little girl in black still crossed her arms across her chest and shouted: "Big water monster!

Chen Pingan turned around and said with a smile: "I just met the Golden Crow Palace Sword Immortal. Why don't you call yourself a big water monster?" ! "

The little girl rolled her eyes and said, "Just now my throat was on fire and I couldn't speak. If you have the ability, let your bullshit Sword Immortal of the Golden Crow Palace come back, and see if I don’t tell you what I said before..."

Waiting for the little girl in black to finish speaking.

Only the sky can be seen In the distance, a line of blue and golden light appeared, perhaps more than a thousand feet long, shooting straight into the depths of the Yellow Wind Valley.

Chen Pingan narrowed his eyes, glanced at it, and then looked away.

Yo, stillA Jindan realm sword cultivator.

It seems that the uncle mentioned by the male and female monks of the Golden Crow Palace personally took action?

After that, the world returned to clarity, and the sword light slowly disappeared.

The little girl quickly hugged her head and shouted: "Little water monster, I am just a little water monster as small as a rice grain..."

The Mili woman and an old man from her disciples He smiled bitterly and said: "If this person takes action and asks us about the sword, he will be in big trouble."

The old man shook his head and laughed softly: "This sword fairy has a cold temperament and is really arrogant, but his behavior is... Completely different from Jin Le who likes to show off his power, he is still very much a mountain person, with a clean mind. Every time he goes down the mountain quietly, he just kills demons and cleanses his sword this time, probably to help Jin Le and the others. He said, after all, the ancestor Huang Feng here is a real old golden elixir and is good at escape. If you are not careful, you can easily suffer disaster and death. I think if this sword continues, the ancestor Huang Feng will not dare to show his face again for decades. He specializes in eating monks."

The Mi Li woman who called herself Mao Qiulu looked at the scholar in white, shook her head and said with a smile: "Firstly, the Imperial Master's Office offered to buy this demon, and the price is very high. Secondly, now it has been provoked. Jin Le of the Golden Crow Palace, Mr. Chen, it would be inappropriate for you to accept this hot potato. Although our Qingqing Mansion is not as powerful as the Golden Crow Palace, we are still reasonable in the dispute caused by this mute lake monster and will not attack the Golden Crow Palace. Too scared."

Chen Ping'an put away the folding fan and put it on his waist, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm traveling all the way north, and I only work hard to spend money. Master Mao just cares. Make an offer. And I am a wild cultivator who is as elusive as a leaf of duckweed. If the Golden Crow Palace wants to get angry, they have to find me, so as long as Master Mao is willing to sell, I can buy it."

The little girl in black said angrily: "I don't want to sell it to you. Scholars are so bad. I might as well follow that sister to Qingqing Mansion and be a neighbor of a river god. Maybe I can even cheat some more." Eat and drink."

Chen Pingan turned around and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid of the sword light of the Golden Crow Palace Sword Immortal? , How can you guard against thieves for a thousand days? How can you, a big water monster, stand in fear every day?"

The little girl frowned and began to think hard. Don't worry about things, just look at her frown. How awesome.

Chen Ping'an looked at the group of immortal masters from Qingqing Mansion and said with a smile: "Let's make an offer."

The woman looked at the elder of the master's sect, who nodded lightly. .

Mao Qiulu still asked in a low voice: "Master Chen, are you really not afraid of the entanglement of the Golden Crow Palace?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "I will just avoid their Golden Crow Palace."< /p>

Mao Qiulu was a little embarrassed and said: "But the Imperial Preceptor's Office offered one Guyu coin to buy this little fish monster. In fact, it can't be sold at such a high price, but it is connected to the Hepo Goddess, so ..."

The little girl said angrily: "What? Just one? Isn't it a hundred? That scholar in white, hurry up!This little girl with weak fists can't even be considered a hero if you blink your eyes for a hundred Grain Rain coins! "

Chen Ping'an was too lazy to pay attention to this little water monster who was confused and handed over a Grain Rain coin.

Then Mao Qiulu looked surprised and said helplessly: "Mr. Chen really bought it. ? ”

At this moment.

A haggard old monk floated over and stood on the top of the slope, followed by a dozen dull-looking monks, all of different ages. There are people of all ages.

There are Buddhist beads hanging in front of them. They are made of ordinary materials, but the strings are full of golden light, which is very eye-catching in the night.

The old monk stood still and sighed. The voice said: "The Sword Immortal of the Golden Crow Palace has gone far away. This ancestor Huangfeng was seriously injured and went crazy. Instead of hiding in the roots of the mountain to cultivate, he wanted to eat people. The poor monk and uncle have been fighting with it for ten years. The confrontation inside and outside cannot hold him back for too long. You and the poor monk quickly leave the boundary of Yellow Wind Valley and get up quickly and hurry up. You really can't delay for a moment. "

Chen Pingan gently threw the Grain Rain coin to the Mi Li woman and said with a smile: "After the transaction is completed, we can all run away. "

Mao Qiu gritted his teeth, caught the Grain Rain coin, and held it in his hand. It was indeed a genuine Grain Rain coin.

The little water monster hurriedly shouted: "There is also Don’t forget that string of bells! You can also buy it for a Grain Rain coin! ”

Chen Pingan still ignored her.

The little girl’s cheeks were bulging, which made the scholar very unhappy.

The girl took off the fence with a smile. The string of bells on her wrist was handed over to the scholar in white whom she had never been able to identify as a Qi practitioner.

The elder of her sect waved his hand and used the entire lake as a symbol of gossip. The talisman array immediately gathered together and detained the twitching little girl in the silver talisman net to the shore. The other immortal masters of Qingqing Mansion also drove back to the compass.

Mao Qiulu said with a smile: " We remove the talisman array, Mr. Chen must be careful not to let her escape into the lake. "

Chen Pingan smiled and nodded: "Of course. "

The gleaming light of the talisman array dissipated instantly.

Chen Pingan stepped forward, grabbed the little girl's back collar, and lifted her up high. She was hanging in the air, still with a straight face. , arms folded across the chest.

On the other side of the hillside, the escorts and passing merchants quickly packed up their belongings and began to walk hurriedly at night under the escort of the monks.

And. The group of immortal masters from Qingqing Mansion walked into the team on their own without any verbal communication, apparently to help the monks from Baoxiang Kingdom escort them away.

Chen Pingan shouted loudly: "That escort. ! ”

A young escort came to the top of the slope on horseback and turned his head to look.

In addition to holding the little girl in one hand, the scholar in white also had an extra hand. The young escort just sat on the horse and reached out to catch the bottle of wine.

p>

The young man put away the wine bottle, smiled and clasped his fists in greetingThanks.

Encounter in the rivers and lakes, meet by chance.

Just drink when you hit it off, no need to say hello, don’t ask your name.

Mao Qiulu turned around and asked: "Mr. Chen? Don't you want to go together?!"

Then the Mi Li woman heard an unexpected reason. She only heard that the man was so generous. Fang smiled and said: "I'll run in another direction. There are many of you, and Huangfeng Ancestor is willing

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

I will look for you first."

Mao Qiulu was so angry that she couldn't utter a word. She turned around, turned her back to the man, raised her arms high, stretched out her thumb, and then slowly pointed it down.

But the man actually had the nerve to say, "I'll be a guest at your Qingqing Mansion when I get the chance."

After the Mi Li woman put away her gesture, she ignored him and strode away.

The little girl being held in someone's hand shook her head and gloated: "Scholar, can't you tell, she has a bit of a crush on you, but now she doesn't have the slightest bit of affection."

The scholar in white smiled and said: "I didn't notice, you have quite a lot of experience in the world."

The little girl in black put her hands behind her back, widened her eyes, and looked hard The bunch of bells in the man's hand.

Chen Pingan threw the bell to her, then put on his bamboo hat, bent down and carried the big bamboo box sideways.

The little girl was stunned on the spot, and then turned around. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. She stretched her neck, and her whole little face and light eyebrows were wrinkled together, indicating that her mind was now in a state of confusion. She was confused and asked: "What, you just don't care about me? You really don't regard a big water monster as a big water monster, do you?"

Chen Pingan pushed her forehead with one hand. , "Get out."

The little girl said angrily: "Mani Mani!"

She suddenly opened her mouth wide, her little face suddenly split open, revealing her bright and sharp teeth. Just open and closed, "Are you afraid?"

Chen Ping'an, carrying a bamboo box, slowly walked towards the hillside, and said, "I'm scared to death."

There are many obstacles on the north side of the hillside. In the distance, the movement became louder and louder.

The little girl in black hesitated, then threw the bunch of bells into the lake, then pinched her chin and began to frown and think about the problem, watching the scholar in white walking up the hillside.

She snorted coldly, turned around and swaggered towards the small green lake, then stood up suddenly and turned around, only to see that the man was already standing on the top of the slope, walking away without stopping.

The little girl scratched her head vigorously, always feeling that something was wrong.

One leaped forward, fell into the water, revealed his true form and transformed into a fish monster, chasing the string of falling bells, shaking his head and tail, and swam towards the bottom of the lake.

Over there on the hillside.

When dressed in white and walked several miles.

He stopped and took off his bamboo hat and bamboo box.

I saw an old monk covered in blood sitting there, silently chanting sutras.

On the yellow sand beside him, there was a tin stick stuck in the ground, and the copper rings hit each other violently.

The old monk’s blood was actually light golden.

As the old monk entered meditation and chanted sutras, golden lotuses bloomed in the surrounding abbot's land.

A yellow tornado swept around the old monk, and a yellow robe could be vaguely hidden inside.

Being crazily impacted by the yellow dragon curls, those golden lotuses withered petal by petal.

Although the old monk closed his eyes tightly, he still waved his sleeves. Now the old monk could only vaguely sense that an outsider appeared behind him. He was a little anxious and said in a deep voice: "Quickly! Hold on to the old monk's tin staff. , it will help you stay away from this place, don’t look back!”

The tin staff flew out diagonally towards the scholar in white, and then hovered next to that person, the tin staffs interlocking, as if He was very anxious and urged the scholar to catch him quickly and escape from this place of right and wrong.

In order to be distracted, the old monk used the tin staff to leave the ground to save people, but there were already flaws. The yellow salon volume became more and more menacing, and there were not many golden lotus left in the land of the abbot.

Just when the old monk was about to be completely enveloped by the yellow sand and completely wear away his golden body, a warm voice sounded softly in his ear, "Master just enters concentration and preaches the Dharma. I am lucky enough to listen to you. I'm so grateful."

Then the young man took a step forward and said at the same time: "Follow me to conquer the demon!"

The bamboo box opened on its own and swept away. A golden demon-binding rope emerged, like a golden dragon following the snow-white figure, rushing forward together.

The demon-binding rope penetrated into the yellow salon scroll, trapping the yellow robe.

The scholar in white only punches like thunder.

It's just that the fist is as powerful as a rainbow and the momentum is astonishing, but the scholar is just strolling around, but if he casually removes his sleeve, the entire soaring tornado will often be beaten into two pieces on the spot.

The old monk slowly opened his eyes, smiled slightly, clasped his hands together, lowered his head, but instead of chanting sutras, he murmured: "The mighty virtue is majestic, stay focused and see clearly. It's a pity that there is no tea, otherwise we would be seated."

The white clothes and the tornado flew away.

The old monk stood up slowly, turned around and walked to the bamboo box, grabbed back the tin staff with the silent copper ring, sang a song to Buddha, and strode away.

It was night this day.

A scholar in white walks slowly with a suitcase on his back and a staff.

There was a little girl in black hanging on his feet, holding his ankles with both hands, so every time he took a step, he had to drag the little girl out like a candy.

Chen Ping'an didn't lower his head, "Are you just pestering me like this?"

The little girl with a package wrapped around her body nodded and said: "What's wrong with these lake bottom treasures in my package?" It’s more than one Guyu coin. I agreed to give them all to you, but you must help me find a scholar who can write books and help me write a wonderful story in which I am very fierce and scary. ” p>

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "If you do this again, I will not be polite to you."

The little girl had a lot of tears and snot on the man's lap, and choked up: "Please, just take me to the world with you. You are so capable, even the ancestors of Huangsha killed you, just follow you." , I don’t have to worry about eating well. I must find that scholar and write my story. I want to be remembered in history and every household will know that I am a big water monster in the dumb lake.”

Chen Pingan stopped. , lowered his head and asked: "Still not letting go?"

The little girl in black refused to let go, shook her head, wiped the snot on the man's snow-white robe with her face, and then raised her head , wrinkled his face and said: "Don't let go."

Chen Pingan raised his foot and said, "Let's go."

The little girl was thrown directly towards the small green lake. It kept rolling in the air, throwing out an extremely long arc.

A moment later.

Chen Pingan turned around and looked.

I was following a follower from a distance. When I saw him turning his head, I immediately stood still and started to look up at the moon.

Chen Pingan sighed, "Follow me, you might die."

The little girl ran forward, but when she saw the scholar in white Frowning, he quickly stopped and said dullly: "Who won't die? They are all going to die anyway. I'm not afraid of this. I just want everyone to know me. If they know, I will die."< /p>

Chen Pingan continues to move forward.

She followed behind.

During this period, she squatted on the ground, stared at the ground, tilted her head, and then suddenly opened her mouth with sharp teeth and swallowed a lizard in one bite.

After standing up, the little girl carrying a package smiled happily, "Delicious!"

But she suddenly noticed that the man turned his head.

She immediately grimaced, her eyes wandering, but her cheeks couldn't help but move.

The man smiled and said, "Then follow. I'll win Chunlu Garden and help you find a place to stay. But there are ugly words ahead. If you regret it halfway and want to return to Dumb Lake "Go on your own, I won't care about you."

She rushed to the man and puffed up her chest, "Will I regret it? Haha, I'm a big water monster!"

The man hummed, "A big water monster the size of a grain of rice."

She felt a little embarrassed for the first time.

This embarrassing thing, which is as big as a sesame seed, must never be written down in a book.

After that, the scholar in white was followed by a little girl in black who often complained that she was thirsty.

Travel across mountains and rivers together.

The little girl thinks Beier is interesting.

The man would take him to sit on a wall on a street and watch the door gods of the two families quarreling with each other.

They are two door gods facing each other. The one with the Wen God of Wealth has a hero who is willing to do justice, but the one with the Wu Wealth God has a good scholar, good looks and good looks. He is known as a child prodigy in the local county.

The scholar at that time, who is still only known as Chen Haoren,He posted a talisman with an ugly name on her, and then the two of them sat on the far wall to watch the fun.

After that, they also saw the scene of the mountain god marrying his daughter to the son of the water god. It looked like a grand scene with loud gongs and drums, but in fact it was silent. The man gave way at that time, but the mountain god's team was there An old nanny in the old man took the initiative to hand him a red envelope to welcome money. The man actually accepted it and said some congratulations very politely. It was really embarrassing, because there was only a piece of snow money in it.

Later they saw the legendary Wuyue Mountain Monarch parade, a god in golden clothes, riding a white horse, with a long tail behind him, which was very majestic.

Also next to a large but dilapidated temple of a certain empress, I saw three beautiful women with my own eyes. They came from a room in the west corridor of the temple with damaged curtains and inaccessible places. Go out and have a private meeting with a scholar in the world of the world. Unfortunately, the guy next to her stopped looking at the embarrassing scene after that. Even she was not allowed to peek. However, during the day, when they went there again, they saw only the temple. There, there are three mottled painted statues of Mei Ji standing there. Compared with before, each one is missing a handkerchief, a gold hairpin and a bracelet.

What was even more fun was that time they accidentally bumped into each other and found a paradise hidden in the mountains and forests. There were a few charming people dressed up as literati. After meeting the two of them, at first, He was still very enthusiastic, but when the mountain spirits asked him if he could recite a poem impromptu, he was dumbfounded, and then those guys started to chase people away, saying that a vulgar guy had come. The two of them had no choice but to exit the mansion in embarrassment. She winked at him, but he wasn't angry at all.

These are all very interesting things, but in fact they are more boring things like traveling day and night, making fires and cooking.

But sometimes this weirdo is really weird.

He once walked on the cliff plank road and looked at the green mountain cliff opposite. For some reason, he flew away and crashed directly into the cliff. Then, bang dong dong, he just punched through the cliff. The whole mountain. How dare she always say that her brain is too wet to clear her head? Brother, don’t talk about second sister.

He would often walk in circles alone when sleeping on the top of the mountain. He could just walk like that all night, seemingly sleeping but not sleeping. Anyway, whenever she felt sleepy, she would fall asleep and sleep soundly. When she opened her eyes early in the morning, she could often see him walking around.

There are also times when he is not serious.

Once I passed by a waterside pavilion outside the county town. It was a gathering of literati and poets. During a heavy rain, everyone in the pavilion watched the rain as if watching a waterfall. They were all in high spirits. Then the person suddenly disappeared. I don’t know. How it was possible was that there was no heavy rain near the waterside pavilion, and the scholars in the pavilion were all stunned. I saw her hiding in the water, laughing.

Every once in a while, next to the stream, he would pat the wine gourd, take out a... small and exquisite flying sword, and shave. Once he turned to her and smiled. She couldn't laugh at all, that was the immortal's flying sword!

He also once helped farmers plant rice in the fields. At that time, he picked up his bookcase and bamboo hat and went to work in the fields. He seemed very happy.

At first, the villagers in the countryside were afraid that the scholar was messing around and not helping, so they never thought of getting started. He was no stranger than them. After working, the villagers wanted to invite them to dinner, but he He smiled again and left.

It’s just that these trivial things are not very impressive, which makes her feel not satisfied at all. After following him for so long, she has not made a name for herself at all, and no one knows that she is a mute. The big lake monster will only introduce her surname as Zhou to whomever he meets, and then nothing else.

Only once did she admire him a little bit.

On a large river, an upstream boat crashed into a small boat that could not escape.

Then a man in white came with a sword and landed on a small boat. He stretched out one hand to support the boat, and held a wine bottle in the other, raising his head to drink.

Later, the two of them sat together on a high-rise building in a prosperous capital city, overlooking the night scene, with bright lights like the dazzling stars.

He finally said something a bit bookish, saying that there are stars above the head and stars below the feet, and there is silent beauty in the sky and the world.

When she saw that he was drinking, she persuaded him to talk more.

He then said that when the moonlight enters the high building, trouble comes and love goes.

She was a little sad, just inexplicably a little bit sad as big as a grain of rice. In fact, it wasn’t that she missed her hometown. She didn’t think about it at all along the way, just when she turned her head and looked at that person’s profile. , it seems that he remembered some people he missed, sad things, maybe. Who knows, she is just a big water monster that secretly watches the comings and goings of people year after year. She is not really a human being.

Thinking about it, she also felt a little sad.

The man turned his head, with the hiking pole across his knees. He held the wine bottle, but reached out and gently rubbed her head.

That moment.

She thought he might really be called Chen Haoren.
