Chapter 567: What is calmness?

Cui Dongshan came and sat down. There were three people at a table, master and disciple, teacher and student.

Cui Dongshan bent down and reached out, taking the pot of Xianjia wine buried behind the bamboo building. Chen Pingan also picked up the wine in front of him, and the two of them drank it down in one gulp.

Chen Pingan wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand and asked: "When will you leave?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "In fact, the student has never left. Wherever the teacher is, the student will There are thoughts to follow."

In the deep night, the young man smiled brightly.

Chen Pingan turned to look at Pei Qian, "Don't imitate him when speaking in the future."

Pei Qian was confused, shook his head vigorously and said: "Master, I have never imitated him. ”

Cui Dongshan extended his thumb.

Pei Qian crossed his arms across his chest and tried his best to show the grace of a senior sister.

Chen Ping'an said: "Chen Ruchu, you have to pay more attention to guarding against thieves for a thousand days."

Luopo Mountain is still some distance from Longquan County, although Fan The little girl in the skirt has long owned the sword talisman forged by the Longquan Sword Sect, which can control Feng Wuji. However, when Chen Ruchu buys things, he likes to shop around and is very meticulous. Some items cannot be bought immediately when he goes to the county town. Maybe She needed to wait a day or two, so she used her private money to buy a house in the county town early. The county magistrate's office helped to make connections and bought a Feng Shui house at a very cost-effective price. Treasure land, neighbors and neighbors are all the gateway to wealth in Da Li Gyeonggi. The person who handled the matter at that time was just a little-known civil secretary, an auxiliary officer of the old prefect Wu Yuan, but now he is the parent officer of Longquan County. It turned out to be a well-hidden son of a prominent surname in the capital.

Just like today, Chen Ruchu stopped at the county house to rest, and could not return to Luopo Mountain until tomorrow when all the goods were ready.

Generally in this situation, before leaving Luolu Mountain, Chen Ruchu would hand over a bunch of keys to Zhou Mili or Cen Yuanji in advance.

Cui Dongshan said: "Sir, don't worry when students are doing things. The best thing about the dead soldiers of Da Li spies is the word "Ao". Privately, Wei Bo has also asked the northernmost mountain god to keep an eye on the county. There was movement. What’s more, the robe used to conceal the blindness on Nuan Shu’s girl was an old possession of a student. Even if something happened unexpectedly, neither the Da Li Death Warrior nor the mountain god could stop him. Nuan Shu could still block Yuan Shu with the robe alone. After Yingjian practiced a sword or two, Wei Bo should have known that even if the other party wanted to die, it would be difficult."

Chen Ping'an said with a smile: "Is this considered a pretense of public benefit? ”

The stability of some people in Luolu Mountain must require the efforts of others.

The girl in the pink skirt needs to plan carefully and carefully with Chen Pingan, Cui Dongshan and Wei Bo to go out without worries.

But on the other hand, he and Cui Dongshan were traveling separately. No matter what strange clouds and thrilling fights they experienced outside, being able to feel at ease just thinking about Luolu Mountain was the genius of Chen Ruchu, a little housekeeper. Big credit.

There was a time when Chen Pingan would struggle withWith this calculation, I feel that I am a bookkeeper who weighs the pros and cons, calculates the gains and losses, and is unwilling to let go of even the changes in people's hearts.

But looking back now, it’s just mediocre. This kind of calculation that doesn’t just revolve around money has its merits and value. There is nothing to hide, and there is no need to reject it deep in one’s heart. .

In short, Chen Pingan will never allow regrets caused by his "unexpectedness" and failure to "think more".

At that time, what good will it do to act angrily afterwards, with the anger of a common man, and blood splashing three feet? Can there be less regret, or no regret at all?

The Luolu Mountain that is now at his feet is Chen Pingan’s responsibility.

In the future, the lotus root blessed land under my nose will be the same.

Be honest first, then make money.

Money still has to be earned, after all, money is the courage of a hero and the ladder of spiritual practice.

Just the order cannot be wrong.

Cui Dongshan said: "Not to mention Mr. and Senior Sister, Zhu Lian, Lu Baixiang, Wei Xian, just with so much extra military luck that Luopo Mountain has brought to the Dali Dynasty, even if I ask for a It’s not an exaggeration to say that the Nascent Soul is stationed in Longquan County all year round. The old bastard won’t give a shit. If you take a step back, there is no good thing in the world as long as the horse runs away and the horse cannot eat grass. Sitting in the south working hard, working hard every day, taking care of such a large amount of things, helping the old bastard stabilize the seven or eight fronts, both overt and covert. My brothers still need to settle accounts openly, so I didn't open my mouth to the old bastard lion. Asking for a salary is already considered kind of me."

Chen Pingan said nothing.

Do not interfere with the "household affairs" of Cui Dongshan and the old national teacher Cui Han.

Until this moment, Pei Qian didn’t know that there were so many twists and turns with Nuan Shu’s little housekeeper. He suddenly felt worried and asked: “Otherwise, I will go out with Nuan Shu in the future. Buying something?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "You are a martial artist from the Four Realms, and you go out to give people away?"

Pei Qian sighed, knocked his head on the table, and said He didn't even raise his head, and said dullly: "What a way, I practice boxing too slowly. Grandpa Cui said that I am like a tortoise crawling and an ant moving. I am so angry."

Chen Pingan's expression eccentric.

Cui Dongshan said something to add insult to injury: "Are you worried now? From now on, senior sister's martial arts five and six realms will be progressed even more slowly, especially the martial arts issue, which requires a long-term plan. , I really can’t get up.”

Pei Qian raised his head and said angrily: “Are you annoyed, Big White Goose?”

Cui Dongshan? He asked: "You are so obedient, can you eat it?"

Pei Qian said confidently: "You can eat it! I eat with Mi Li, and I can eat an extra bowl every time. See you , I don’t even want to eat.”

Chen Ping’an comforted him: “Don’t be anxious about useless things.”

Pei Qian immediately shouted: “Master is wise!”

Cui Dongshan turned to look at Chen Ping'an, "Sir, what's the matter? The Feng Shui of our Luolu Mountain has nothing to do with the students, right?"

Chen Ping ignored it and changed the subject, "I have already discussed with Wei Liang, the late emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom, We have talked, but the new emperor Wei Yan has great ambitions, so you may need to say hello to Wei Xian."

Wei Xian is the founding emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom and the most important person in the history of Ouhua Blessed Land. The first king to visit the mountains on a large scale in search of immortals.

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Wei Xian is the lucky man who was brought out of the Lotus Flower Blessed Land by Sir. We are reborn with kindness. Sir, Wei Xian has no reason to say no."

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Luo Po Mountain, within the general rules, must give everyone the room and freedom to follow their own hearts. It's not that I, Chen Pingan, deliberately want to be a moral sage, I just want to have a clear conscience, but I don't want to do this for a long time. You won't be able to retain people. You can't retain Lu Baixiang today, you won't be able to retain Wei Xian tomorrow, and you won't be able to retain Master Zhong the day after tomorrow."

Cui Dongshan nodded and said, "Sir, you are wise. "

Pei Qian said angrily: "Hurry up and say it differently, don't imitate me!"

Cui Dongshan shook his head and shook his big sleeves, "Hey, no. Come and hit me, come on, if I hide, I will have the same surname as the old bastard." Pei Qian held his head with both hands, his head hurting. That is, the master was by her side, otherwise she would have punched.

Unexpectedly, the master reminded him with a smile: "Why don't you agree to a fight when someone asks you to fight? It is a good habit to respond to requests when traveling in the world."

Pei Qian's eyes sparkled.

Cui Dongshan raised an arm, put his fingers together and shook them in front of him, "Senior Sister, I know the magic of the Immortal Family. People who have eaten and drank enough, once I use the Immobilize Technique, tsk tsk tsk, the end is really unimaginable, too beautiful to behold."

Pei Qian said seriously: "Master, I think we should be more harmonious among the same disciples, and harmony will bring wealth."

Then Chen Pingan said: "Go to bed early, and master will help you feed your fists tomorrow."

Pei Qian's eyes widened. , "Huh?"

She was not afraid of hardship, but Pei Qian was worried that after giving him a fist, he would be exposed and his pitiful surroundings would be a joke to the master.

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I'm not in a hurry, it's not because I'm not working hard. When you reach the bottleneck of the Five Realms, you can go down the mountain to travel alone. You can see for yourself whether you want to call Li Huai or not. Let's do it. Of course, there will be a little donkey that Master promised you."

Pei Qian said eagerly: "Master, it's 'today' after the hour. You can teach me boxing now. Yes."

Chen Pingan pressed her little head and pushed it gently, "I'm going to talk to Cui Dongshan about something serious."

Pei Qian said aggrievedly. It’s understandable that Mr. Zhong is talking about business. It’s easy to talk about business with Big White Goose. Master, I’m not tired. You can talk and I’ll listen.”

Cui Dongshan clicked his tongue and said: "I don't even listen to the master's words. This is just a martial artist in the fourth realm. When he reaches the fifth and sixth realms, he will not be able to go to heaven."

Pei Qian refused to move, his arms wrapped around his arms. Chest, sneered: "Difference between master and disciple, what a villain is doing!"

Cui Dongshan said: "Sir, I can't control it anyway."

Chen Ping'an put his fingers together, He bent slightly and asked, "Does it hurt if you have a large brain?"

Pei Qian ran away angrily.

After a while, Chen Ping'an didn't turn around and said, "Is there any money in the grass?"

Pei Qian, who had been looking over there, stood up angrily, "Master , I was walking halfway when I heard the crickets chirping, and I was catching crickets. Now I'm running away, so I'm really going to sleep."

Wait until Pei Qian was gone.

Chen Pingan was a little worried, "I know it is unnecessary to worry and it is useless to think too much, but it is easiest to persuade others with reason, but it is really difficult to convince yourself."

Cui Dongshan said softly: " Pei Qian broke through the realm a little quickly, and he suffered so much martial luck. Fortunately, Wei Bo was there to control the situation, and Li Zhudongtian was famous for many strange people and strange things, but it was indeed a bit troublesome when Pei Qian went to the world on his own. ."

Chen Ping'an felt a little emotional and said slowly: "But after listening to her talk about her trip to the Lotus Root Blessed Land, I was able to think of and explain the principle of 'holding back my fist'. I'm a little happy. I'm just afraid that if I try to imitate me, Pei Qian's own world may be eclipsed in the future."

Cui Dongshan said: "Learn well first, and then be yourself. What's wrong? Isn't this how you've been going through these years? All the children in the world don't have any rules in mind, so they learn how to do it first. Is it better to remember the rules the most? In this age, the elders are always trying to get close to the younger ones, and they are reluctant to let go of the chestnuts and harsh words. I feel very bad."

Chen Pingan nodded and listened.

Cui Dongshan said: "Are you also worried about Cao Qinglang's future?"

Chen Pingan sighed, "Of course. I don't want to dictate Cao Qinglang's life, nor do I want to Cao Qinglang delayed his studies and practice."

Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "It is better to let Zhong Qiu take Cao Qinglang with him when he leaves Lotus Root Blessed Land, and let Cao Qinglang and Zhong Qiu live together in the new world. If you want to travel far to study, you should start from Aquarius Island. Cao Qinglang's qualifications are really good. Mr. Zhong preaches and teaches, and he works hard on the word "mellow". Mr. Lu Tai's friend also He taught Cao Qinglang to stay away from pedantry and complement each other. In the final analysis, it is Zhongqiu who is upright and has the essence of knowledge. Lu Tai is knowledgeable, mixed but not chaotic, and is willing to sincerely respect Zhongqiu. Otherwise, Cao Qinglang can have this atmosphere. At the end of the day, Cao Qinglang is dead. In the final analysis, it is all thanks to Mr. Chen Ping’an. “If I say, I really want the name Cao Qinglang to be included in our Luolu Mountain ancestor hall. Genealogy, is it too selfish?”

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Mr., did you ever mention this to Cao Qinglang at the small house in the shabby alley?"

Chen Ping'an said helplessly: "Of course I have to ask him about his wishes first. At that time, Cao Qinglang Qinglang was just silly and cheerful, nodding vigorously, like a chicken pecking rice, which gave me the illusion that I was seeing Pei Qian, so I felt a little guilty."

Cui Dongshan laughed and said. "Isn't this a great thing that you and I agree on? If my husband feels uneasy, why not think about the effort and effort it will take to cultivate a scholar in the future? Wouldn't it be better?"

Chen Pingan thought about it and felt much more at ease.

Then Chen Pingan remembered another child named Zhao Shuxia.

I wonder how that young man is now learning boxing and walking.

Chen Pingan also attaches great importance to Zhao Shuxia, but he has different concerns and expectations for different juniors.

The way Zhao Shuxia practices boxing is actually the one that most resembles his own.

Don’t rely on anything, just hard work.

Chen Ping'an liked the young man's pure mind, his desire to learn boxing, and his pursuit of martial arts.

Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan mentioned Zhao Shuxia for the first time, and of course the Taoist embryo, the girl Zhao Luan, and the fisherman Mr. Wu Shuowen whom he admired very much.

Cui Dongshan said slowly: "The meaning of ancient clumsiness has been the meaning of boxing since ancient times. On top of this, if you can still innovate, it will be the great skill of martial arts."

Chen Pingan said with a smile: "You are not even a martial artist yourself. I can't talk to you, but here under Zhao Shuxia, don't add any unnecessary extravagance."

Cui Dongshan nodded and agreed.

With him as a student, you can avoid many accidents if you take a few more glances when you have free time.

What's more, Cui Dongshan is too lazy to do those icing on the cake. If he wants to

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

, he will just do it to provide help in times of need.

For example, the Pima Sect's mountain-protecting formation was improved to gain 20% more power.

Cui Dongshan naturally retained his strength.

Pi Ma Zong Zhuquan knew it well, but when it came to major matters involving the rise and fall of the sect, Zhu Quan still did not rely on the incense and passion to push forward, or even hinted at it, and he would not break it to Chen Ping'an. Talking.

Because the Pima Sect could not provide him with the same kind of love for the time being, or could not give him the love that Cui Dongshan, Chen Ping'an's student, wanted, Zhu Quan simply said nothing.

If it were Chen Ping'an, Zhu Quan would definitely say it bluntly. Even if he and the Pima Sect's sect asked for the fairy money, it still wouldn't be enough to settle the debt, then I would give it on credit first, and she, Zhu Quan, would be in debt. Don't feel guilty at all.

But Chen Pingan is Chen Pingan, and Cui Dongshan is Cui Dongshan. Even if they are teachers and students, they all call Luolu Mountain their home.

This is proportionality.

Although Zhu Quan was in the Skeleton Beach, he seemed to be very incompetent as the head of the Pi Ma Sect, and his level was not low, compared to the sectBut it is not enough, so we can only use the lowest option, take the lead in Qinglu Town, and resist the southward trend of Jingguan City.

But as everyone across the continent knows, Pima Sect is a very happy mountain sect with clear grievances.

This well-known mountain style and reputation as a monk are a large amount of immortal money that Pima Sect has accumulated invisibly.

On this trip to Luzhou in Beiju, Chen Ping'an learned a lot of truths outside the book from the Pima Sect where Zhuquan was in charge, as well as the Paidi Peak where Master Huolong slept soundly.

Chen Pingan took out two more pots of glutinous rice wine, one for each person.

This time, both of them drank slowly.

With a mountain that is beginning to take shape, things will naturally happen.

How to deal with the new governor Wei Li and Zhou Chenghuang requires careful control of the situation.

This is by no means a simple matter that Cui Dongshan can get even the slightest bit of benefit from by showing off his identity as "Leader of Dali Luboting".

On the other side of the fish's back, Lu Baixiang and Liu Chongrun, who had obtained the Water Palace and the Dragon Boat, two important treasures of the Immortal Family, were already on their way back. Therefore, when Lu Baixiang's two direct disciples arrive at Luopo Mountain, Yuan Bao Yuanlai, the brother and sister, should record their names on the genealogy. But what is more embarrassing is that Luo Po Mountain has not yet built an ancestral hall, because many For this matter, he, the owner of Luoluo Mountain, must be present. Chen Ping'an must be present for laying the foundation, installing beams, hanging statues, offering incense, etc.

So Chen Ping'an still needs to stay for a while, first waiting for Lu Baixiang, and then waiting for Zhu Lian to return from Old Dragon City.

Among them, Zhou Mili officially became the protector of Luoluoshanyou. Whether it will cause some people to feel uneasy is something Chen Pingan must think deeply about.

Chen Pingan stood up and said, "I'm going to Qilong Lane."

Cui Dongshan smiled and said, "Walking?"

Chen Pingan said: " Pei Qian has a sword talisman issued by the Longquan Sword Sect, but I don’t have it. It’s midnight, so I won’t bother Wei Bo. I just happened to stop by to see Zheng Dafeng in Weijiao.”

Cui Dongshan said. : "Then I'll walk with you, sir."

When the two of them were going down the mountain, Cen Yuanji happened to be practicing boxing up the mountain.

Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan stood sideways and gave way to the road.

Cen Yuanji said nothing, his fist flowed, and he walked up the mountain without any distractions.

The two continued down the mountain.

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "This little girl is also stubborn. She only looks at Zhu Lian with admiration."

Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "It shows that Zhu Lian has a good taste in recruiting disciples." . The evil spirit of Luo Luo Shan that you have brought back will be restored with Cen Yuanji.”

Cui Dongshan said helplessly: “If you are determined to think so, you will be able to feel at ease. So the student had no choice but to admit it."

At the foot of the mountain, Chen Pingan knocked on the door, but there was no sound for a long time. Chen Pingan didn't intend to let Zheng Dafeng go, and he knocked loudly.

Zheng Dafeng was limping and bleary-eyed. He opened the door and sawWhen he arrived at Chen Ping'an, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Mountain Master, why didn't you say anything to me when you came home? You are not willing to walk more than a few steps? You look down on me, the gatekeeper, right? Since you look down on me, Zheng Dafeng , so what’s the matter with my visit tonight? I’m sad and sad. I’m going to bed. I don’t want the owner of the mountain to be an eyesore when he sees me. I’m also upset. If I lose my bowl of rice, I’ll pack up and leave tomorrow. Isn’t it finished? Is it possible that I still want to go to bed? Sleeping on the street in the county town? It’s almost winter. It’s freezing cold. How can the mountain master bear it? We’ll talk about it later. Anyway, I’m just looking after the gate. There’s nothing important to talk about. The mountain master is busy with important things first..." /p>

Zheng Dafeng is about to close the door.

These words were spoken fluently and without any flaws.

Chen Pingan pressed the door with one hand and said with a smile: "Brother Dafeng, I hurt my leg and foot. It's such a big thing, of course I have to say hello."

Zheng Dafeng was full of righteousness and shook his head. : "It's not a big deal, gentlemen. As long as the third leg is not broken, it's a small matter."

One person closes the door and the other presses the door. There is a stalemate.

Zheng Dafeng muttered: "The master of the mountain has broken the realm and bullied others like this, then I, Zheng Dafeng, will be in trouble."

Chen Pingan laughed angrily. : "We really have something to talk about."

Zheng Dafeng asked: "Whose business is it?"

Chen Ping'an said angrily: "It's not Pei Qian's anyway."

Zheng Dafeng let out an ouch, lowered his head and bent over, his legs and feet were very nimble. He grabbed Chen Ping'an's arm and pulled him toward the door, "Master of the mountain, please come in. The place is not big and the hospitality is not good. Don't be dissatisfied." , I really didn’t complain about this, I like to talk behind my back, it’s really that Zhu Lian is stingy, the money he appropriated is just a drop in the bucket, look at this house, does it have any dignity at all? The mountain gate here is so shabby, I, Zheng Dafeng, I’m too embarrassed to go to the town to buy wine. I’m embarrassed to say that I’m from the Luoluoshan family. Brothers belong to brothers, and business belongs to business. What a thief!”

Cui Dongshan laughed! Said: "The speaker is really in tears, and the listener is moved."

Zheng Dafeng turned around and said: "I almost started a fight with Zhu Lian and Wei Bo for the sake of little brother Cui. The quarrel turned upside down. In order for them to let go, I agreed to give Brother Cui a share of the debt, and almost asked for a beating. It was really dangerous and dangerous. In the end, it still didn't help. I could only drink alcohol every day, and then... Did you sprain your foot accidentally?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and nodded, "I'm so grateful."

Cui Dongshan stopped and said to wait for Mr. at the mountain gate, crossed the threshold, and walked gently. Closed the door.

Chen Pingan and Zheng Dafeng sat down respectively and talked about what they heard from Li Liu in Lion Peak.

Zheng Dafeng nodded and said: "There is such a thing, but I don't have the energy to worry about it now."

Then Zheng Dafeng asked: "Why, do you think Luo Luoshan is short of thugs?" , do you want me to take advantage of you?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "You know I won't do it?Think so. "

Zheng Dafeng smiled and said: "I knew it wouldn't happen, so I asked like this. This is called asking for words when I have nothing to say. Otherwise, I would have gone to the old house to drink northwest wind. ”

Chen Pingan said: “I am looking for you this time, thinking that if you want to relax, you can often go to the Lotus Root Blessed Land for a walk. But it still depends on your own wishes, so I will just say casually.” carry. "

Zheng Dafeng nodded, "Half of Mr. Cui's martial arts fortune was deliberately left in the Lotus Root Blessed Land. In addition, after being promoted to a medium blessed land, and the spiritual energy suddenly increased, it will indeed be more interesting there now. "

Zheng Dafeng seemed a little moved, rubbing his chin, "I will consider it. ”

For example, where to open a prosperous brothel?

Zheng Dafeng grinned and waved to himself. This kind of immoral thing cannot be done. It is better to open a liquor store in a busy city. It's almost like hiring a few graceful wine girls. They may be thin-skinned and can't win business. You have to hire a few plump wine-selling women. They can chat and have more repeat customers. Otherwise, go there and earn a lot of money. For less than a few bucks, I am ashamed of myself. The people around me are like the moon, and my wrists are covered with frost and snow. It is so beautiful for my eyes. As a shopkeeper, I can just stand up and collect money every day.

Chen Ping'an. I don't know what Zheng Dafeng was planning. Seeing that he was just smiling and wiping his mouth with his hand from time to time, Chen Ping'an felt something was wrong and left.

Zheng Dafeng walked all the way to the gate, otherwise. Chen Pingan refused, and he probably could have sent them all the way to the town.

Chen Pingan and Cui Dongshan walked away.

Zheng Dafeng sighed and mentioned Cui Cheng's military fortune before. Chen Ping'an looked as usual.

It's a good thing, but it's not a good thing.

It doesn't matter what kind of person it is. Such joy and sorrow.

As for Cui Dongshan, Zheng Dafeng didn't want to deal with him because he was too good at playing chess.

Zheng Dafeng didn't go back to sleep, but went out, his body stooped. , walking under the moonlight, heading to the mountain gate, leaning against the white jade pillar.

There is no obvious hilltop in Luolu Mountain, but if you look closely, there is actually one.

Surrounding Cui Dongshan, there is one.

There is Lu Baixiang and Wei Xian outside the mountain.

So is Shi Rou in Qilong Lane. p>As long as Cui Dongshan is willing, this mountain can become the largest camp in Luolu Mountain overnight, with many new faces.

But Zheng Dafeng doesn't think he is worthless. There is no existence, because those people who are surrounded by stars and moons want to enter Luopo Mountain, especially if they want to be named on the genealogy in the future, they must at least pass through the mountain gate first.

What a coincidence, he. Zheng Dafeng happened to be the gatekeeper.

When Zheng Dafeng thought of this, he felt that he was such an extraordinary person. It would be impossible for Luopo Mountain to be without him. He waited quietly for a long time. Gale suddenly stomped her feet. Why did Miss Cen go up the mountain to practice boxing tonight and not go back down?!

————

Shi Rou opened the door of the shop and felt a little embarrassed when he saw Chen Ping'an and Cui Dongshan both there.

If it were just a young mountain master, it would be fine, but with Cui Dongshan by his side, Shi Rou would feel palpitated.

Going to the backyard, Chen Lingjun yawned and stood by the patio.

Chen Ping'an asked Shi Rou to open the door of a wing room, light a lamp on the table, take out a large pile of notes, or a landscape map drawn by the government or himself, and began to tell the story of Jidu's journey across the river. At the same time, he took out black and white chess pieces with names and sects engraved on them. For example, the Water Dragon Sect Jidu Li Yuan, the Water Goddess of Nanxun Palace are white pieces, and the Chunlu Pu Tanling and Tang Xi in the easternmost part of Jidu. , Song Lanqiao and other monks, in addition to Yunshang City, Caique Mansion, Duckweed Sword Lake located in the middle of Beiju Luzhou, etc. As for the relatively small number of sunspots, they are mainly the Yang family of Chongxuan Department. Chen Ping'an about these The chess pieces were placed in different positions on the table. He smiled and explained that the chess pieces are like this, but human nature does not pay attention to black and white. I am just giving a general impression. When you go to the river by yourself, you can't be rigid. Set it up, otherwise you will suffer a big loss.

Looking at the snow-white line on the table that is tied up by the chess pieces.

Chen Lingjun held it in for a long time before whispering: "Thank you."

Chen Pingan was a little surprised, so he smiled and joked: "In the middle of the night, the sun can hit the west Come out?"

Chen Lingjun became angry and said: "I have already thanked you, it's up to you whether you accept it or not."

Chen Pingan was a little happy and planned to elaborate on this for Chen Lingjun. All the precautions for Jidu's trip to the river, no matter how big or small, must be explained slowly, and most of the time the conversation will last until dawn.

Cui Dongshan narrowed his eyes and said: "Excuse me, please give me some snacks. This is the route your master paid for with his life. No one in the world is more prepared to walk across the river properly than you."

Chen Lingjun looked a little nervous and clenched the pile of papers in his hand.

Chen Pingan waved his hand, "It's not that exaggerated. Traveling is the main part of the trip to Luzhou in Beiju, and walking on the river is the second time. You don't need to be grateful to me, but you must remember that this is the foundation of your path. No Shangxin means that you are not responsible for yourself. In the past, you and Chen Ruchu were both members of the dragon family on Luolu Mountain. If you wanted to immerse yourself in practice, you couldn't do anything, so I never said anything, right? , you must change your past lazy temper. If I find out later that you dare to take Ji Du out of the river and treat it as a child's play, I would rather have you thrown back to Luo Po Mountain than let it go. You're just wandering around."

At this point, Chen Ping'an said solemnly: "Because you will die over there."

Chen Lingjun nodded, "I know the severity. "

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I believe you."

Chen Lingjun looked at Chen Pingan, his eyes were clear and his smile was warm.

Chen Lingjun also calmed down.

Chen Pingan smiled and took out the pen and ink paper and put it on the table. "A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. I may speak in detail and miscellaneously.If you think there are key personnel that are very important, write them down. You can take them out and look at them at any time when you are on your way. "

Cui Dongshan said: "It's just that I didn't go to the river for this uncle myself. "

Chen Lingjun was just about to sit down when he heard these words, he stopped, lowered his head, and clutched the paper in his hand.

Chen Pingan glanced at Cui Dongshan.

Chen Lingjun glanced at Cui Dongshan. p>

Cui Dongshan raised his hands and said: "I will go out and sit down. "

Cui Dongshan really went out and closed the door, then he sat on the bench next to the patio, crossed his legs, held the back of his head with his hands, and suddenly roared: "Grandma Shi Rou, where are the melon seeds! "

Shi Rou said timidly: "Right away. ”

She even forgot to conceal her feminine voice.

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

I almost stayed in Qilong Lane for a long time. Shi Rou even forgot about her own female body, but when she met Cui Dongshan, she was immediately shaken back to her original form.

Chen Pingan patted Chen Lingjun on the shoulder, "Cui Dongshan." Dongshan's words are unpleasant, and I don't say anything nice for him. It's really unpleasant. But you might as well listen to it. Apart from those unreasonable things, most of the words that we find unpleasant are words that hurt our hearts. We may not care on our faces, but we need to chew more in our hearts. Coptis chinensis tastes bitter, but it can clear away heat. Pure in heart. That's all I can say about the truth. Anyway, after this separation, even if I want to say something and you want to listen, I won't have the chance for the time being. "

Chen Lingjun silently remembered it in his heart, and then asked doubtfully: "Where are you going again? "

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Hanging upside down on the mountain, the Great Wall of Sword Qi. ”

Chen Lingjun complained: “There are so many things going on on the mountain. Master, you, the owner of the mountain, are too hands-off.” ”

He originally wanted to say why he didn’t return to Luolu Mountain earlier, but he held back and didn’t say anything.

Because he himself also knew that anyone could say this, but only He, Chen Lingjun, is the least qualified.

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "I accept the criticism and will not change it for the time being. "

Chen Lingjun grinned.

Chen Lingjun sat upright with his pen in hand, spread out the paper, and began to listen to Chen Pingan's talk about the local customs, customs, and sects' power.

Chen Lingjun was here After writing something to note on the paper, he suddenly looked up and asked: "Master, will you do this again in the future?

Chen Ping'an said doubtfully: "How to say it?" "

Chen Lingjun said: "There will be many people in Luopo Mountain in the future. Master, will you treat everyone this way? "

Chen Pingan thought for a while, shook his head and smiled: "It's difficult. First come, first served, etc., there is inevitably a difference between closeness and distance. This is one aspect. Of course, there are more things to worry about. It does not necessarily mean that you have to do everything yourself. The more people there are in Luopo Mountain, the more complicated people's feelings will become. I can't do everything myself. We can only try our best to ensure that Luopo Mountain has a good atmosphere. For example, Cui Dongshan outside the door is not a highly cultivated person with great abilities and is right in everything. You should listen to him in everything. If you are in hisThere is no reason to argue, and you feel unconvinced, then you can talk to me and I will listen carefully. "

Chen Lingjun hummed.

Cui Dongshan complained bitterly outside: "Sir, students are best at persuading others with virtue. "

Chen Lingjun rolled his eyes.

Chen Ping'an continued to tell Chen Lingjun about the matter of walking across the river.

As expected, this nagging ended at dawn.< /p>

Chen Lingjun also wrote down dozens of key matters.

Chen Pingan clicked his tongue and said: "Chen Lingjun, your handwriting is... far worse than Pei Qian. "

Chen Lingjun blushed, "I don't copy books every day. If I copy books for so long, the words I write will cost at least a few Xiaoshu coins... Xue Qianqian... ! "

Chen Pingan smiled and asked: "Do you believe it yourself? ”

Chen Lingjun was frustrated.

It was because he was thin-skinned.

Chen Pingan sat on the bench with his hands in his sleeves, closed his eyes, thought about it, and saw I checked to see if there was anything missing, so I decided to think of it later and write another letter to Chen Lingjun.

Opening his eyes, Chen Pingan asked casually: "Your brother Yujiang Water God, How is it now? "

Chen Lingjun shook his head, "That's it.

Chen Ping'an said: "Before leaving for Beiju Luzhou, you can actually take a trip to Yujiang to say goodbye and drink and eat when you need it. But don't say you are going to the river alone." Said he was going on a long trip. Treat people with sincerity, don't tell everything, and don't hide anything. It's about not causing trouble for others, and doing your best to help others solve some troubles, but there is no need for others to express their gratitude to you.

Chen Lingjun put away his pen and paper and lay on the table with a sad expression, "In the past, I didn't want to do this. I just drank, ate meat, and bragged loudly." "

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "The world will not always allow us to save worry and effort. It is not a bad thing to think more. "

Chen Lingjun hesitated for a long time, not daring to look Chen Ping'an in the face, and said cautiously: "If I say that I actually don't want to go to Zoujiang, or to Beiju Luzhou, I just want to stay on Luolu Mountain and eat. Would you be angry if you were waiting to die? ”

Chen Pingan smiled and said nothing, as if he already knew the answer.

Chen Lingjun fell silent and did not dare to look at Chen Pingan.

Chen Lingjun was silent. Ping An said: "Don't be angry. "

Chen Lingjun sat up suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face, "Seriously?

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "I never thought about walking across the river from the beginning, because it is a great thing. You, Chen Lingjun, must set off immediately, no matter what, rain or shine, and walk across the river." I even think that if you don't really want to go to the river one day, then there is no need to worry about it at all, because there is no way to escape the Jidu River. In fact, as long as you wait until the day you really understand it, then go to Jidu, you will be more likely to succeed than if you are ignorant now and deal with it completely as an errand. But then again, the matter of blasphemy isIt is a must-go road for you, Chen Lingjun, and it is difficult to get around it. It's not a bad thing to be more prepared now. ”

Chen Pingan paused for a moment, “You may find it harsh to say this, but I should tell you my true thoughts. As Cui Dongshan said, the dragons in the world belong to mountains, wild lakes, and lakes. There are so many, but not everyone has the opportunity to use Dadu to cross the river. So if you clearly know in your heart that this matter cannot be delayed, but you are just used to being lazy and unwilling to move away and endure hardship, I will be very angry. But if you think that this matter is nothing at all, so what if you don’t go to Jidu? I, Chen Lingjun, have my own way to go. Or if you think that I, Chen Lingjun, just like to stay on Luolu Mountain and will be happy to stay there for the rest of my life, then your family Neither the master nor the Lord of Luolu Mountain is angry at all. "

Chen Lingjun smiled and said: "I understand. "

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Every time Chen Ruchu goes to the county to buy things, you will secretly protect her. I am very happy, because this is responsibility. ”

Chen Lingjun was a little embarrassed, “I’ll just stroll around!” Who told the master such nonsense, let’s see if I don’t slap his big mouth..." Cui Dongshan said lazily outside the door: "Me. "

Chen Lingjun was dumbfounded.

Chen Lingjun ran over and opened the door. He tiptoed behind Cui Dongshan and rubbed his shoulders. He asked softly: "Brother Cui, you have been sitting here all night without complaining. Where are you tired? I'm so sorry, I must tell my little brother, we are all family members who love each other, it would be disrespectful to be too polite! Is the strength on my hand too light or too heavy? "

Chen Ping'an crossed the threshold, kicked Chen Lingjun on the butt, laughed and cursed: "You also have a share of Luolu Mountain's Feng Shui! ”

————

The grass shop next to Qilong Lane has also opened.

It’s the girl nicknamed Jiu’er.

Chen Pingan greeted with a smile: "Jiu'er, where are your master and senior brother? "

The girl quickly gave a blessing and said in surprise: "Master Chen Shan.

Then he was a little shy and said: "Master has been running business. He is getting older, so he gets up later. Today I will open the door. It was not like this before." Senior brother has been collecting herbs in the mountains for several days, and it will probably be later before he can return to Qilong Lane. "

Jiu'er is going to call Master. After all, it is the mountain master who is here in person. Even if the master complains and gets scolded, he should inform him.

Chen Ping'an stops Jiu'er. , smiled and said: "No need to disturb Taoist Master's rest, I'm just passing by to see you. "

Jiu'er was a little nervous, "Master Chen Shan, the business of the shop is not very good.

Chen Pingan said: "It's okay. The business here at Caotou Shop is actually pretty good. Keep up your efforts and go to Luopo Mountain if you have something to do. Don't be embarrassed. In this sentence, drink later." You must help me carry it to him. The Taoist priest is kind-hearted. Even if something really happens, he still likes to carry it. This is actually not good. One family does not speak the same language. By the way, I won't sit in the shop, I still have some things to do. ”

Jiu'er, who had just opened the door, quietly put his hands behind his back, rubbed them together, and said softly: "Master Chen, really don't want a cup of tea?"

Chen Ping'an waved his hands and smiled: "I really don't want to drink anymore. Just think of it as a spare moment."

Jiu'er smiled.

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "Jiuer's face is much better than before, which shows that the water and soil of my hometown are still nourishing for people. I used to worry that you guys wouldn't be able to live there, but now I'm relieved."

Jiu'er blushed a little.

Chen Pingan waved goodbye.

I took Cui Dongshan along the steps of Qilong Lane and went to the ancestral home in Muping Lane.

This route must first pass through the ancestral home of the Gu family. Chen Pingan stopped and asked: "Where is Uncle Gu?"

Cui Dongshan said: "Integrity officials It's hard to stop the housework. But now Gu Tao has become the mountain god of the old mountains of Dali, and his merits are considered complete. The woman can get wind and rain in the county town, and Gu Can is doing well in Shujian Lake. Yes, her son is promising, and her husband has made great progress. A woman has lived a good life, and many of her problems have naturally been hidden."

Chen Pingan continued to move forward, "Xiao Xiushui. The house where Gao Fengban lives?" Cui Dongshan said slowly: "The ghost in wedding clothes? Poor ghost, she fell in love with a pitiful person. In fact, the latter is so disgusting. It's so pitiful that he was deceived by the academicians of the Lu Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, and ended up drowning himself in a lake. He was an infatuated man who originally only wanted to earn the title of sage through his knowledge in the academy. He could use this in exchange for the recognition and edict of the court, so that he could reveal that he was marrying a female ghost. Unfortunately, he was born early, in the Dali of that year, not the Dali of today. Otherwise, there would be two completely different endings. . The female ghost was over there in the academy. After all, she was a filthy ghost. Naturally, she couldn't even get through the gate. She had to force her way through and almost lost her soul. In the end, she was not stupid enough and spent all she had with the Dali court. It was only with the love of incense that she took away the scholar's body and learned the long-lasting truth. It turned out that the scholar had never failed her affection and died because of it. She went completely crazy. When Gu Tao left her, After returning to the mansion, she stumbled back there with a coffin, took off her wedding dress, put on plain clothes, and stayed in a daze every day, just saying that she was waiting for someone. "

Chen Ping'an. Asked: "How to calculate right and wrong here?"

Cui Dongshan stretched out a palm, cut it in the air a few times with a knife gesture, and said with a smile: "It depends on where you start. Wherever they go, it starts and ends respectively with the female ghost scholar meeting and falling in love with each other, and ending with the female ghost killing so many scholars. It's very simple. A slap in the face scares her to death, and now she doesn't want to live. , it’s all over. But if we look further forward, judging from the female ghost’s landscape achievements and her good nature, it will be very troublesome. If we still think that she can correct her mistakes in case of any eventuality, It will be even more troublesome to think about it from the perspective of those scholars who died in vain in the next hundreds of years.The problem is...a big trouble. "

Cui Dongshan said this and asked: "May I ask sir, which paragraph do you want to intercept? "

Chen Pingan did not give an answer.

When Chen Pingan took out the key to open the door of the ancestral house, Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Then, sir, have you ever thought about something? The question is, what is Mr. Yu doing when things are so messy? "

After Chen Pingan opened the door, he smiled and said: "Just think about it again. "

Opening the door, Chen Pingan took out two small benches.

After Cui Dongshan sat down, he smiled and said: "There is a saying on the mountain that is easy to be ambiguous,' There is a reason for going up the mountain to practice Taoism. It turns out that they are all descendants of gods. "

Chen Pingan said: "I've heard of it. "

Cui Dongshan said: "When ordinary people hear this, they just feel that the world is unfair and treats themselves too poorly. People who think this way are actually no longer immortals. Apart from being angry, it is actually best to feel sad for yourself. "

Chen Pingan remained silent, using his toes to draw a circle with a very small gap on the dirt floor in the courtyard, and then drew a larger circle outward, "There must be a way to go, and everyone can There is an opportunity to choose. "

Cui Dongshan was suddenly silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "Except for the first time, sir, I have never experienced true despair in my life since then. "

Chen Pingan remained silent, holding his sleeves with his hands, bending slightly, looking outside the Mud Bottle Alley, which was not closed.

Cui Dongshan continued: "For example, Liu Xianyang was still dead back then. . "

Cui Dongshan added: "For example, Qi Jingchun is actually the mastermind behind the scenes, the one who scheming the most. "

Cui Dongshan said again: "Another example is that Gu Can made Mr. Gu feel that he knew he was wrong and corrected it, only to find out later that this was not the case. Another example is when Pei Qian returned to Lotus Root Blessed Land for the first time, beat Cao Qinglang to death, and then chose to wait for death, betting that his husband would not kill her. "

Chen Ping'an finally said: "I want to set up a small world. I have something in my heart and I won't express my displeasure. "

Cui Dongshan drew a golden thunder pool with his flying sword.

Chen Ping'an stood up, held his sleeves with his hands, walked around the yard, and said softly: "Mr. Qi Even after his death, he still protected me, because in me, there was a dispute between the three religions that Mr. Qi deliberately created. I know. "

Cui Dongshan stood up, his face turned pale, and said: "Sir, you shouldn't know the truth so early! "

Chen Pingan turned his head, looked at Cui Dongshan, and said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, I am very smart and calm. So Mr. Qi will not lose, and neither will I, Chen Pingan. ”
