The early sunshine shines on Gaocheng.
After stacking the mountains, Dong Huafu and Fan Dache chose to retreat.
Ning Yao, Chen Sanqiu, and Yan Pei continued to stay where they were.
Chen Pingan returned to their side and put on the appearance of a middle-aged man. He first helped Chen Sanqiu and Yan Peck keep an eye on the battlefield situation, and occasionally gave a reminder.
Compared with Fan Dache, who must speak accurately, and Chen Sanqiu and Yan Pei, Chen Ping'an has to be much more concise and to the point, just checking for omissions and filling in the details.
It’s more about some suggestions on the trajectory of the flying sword and the choice of landing place, a kind of quick review, trying to change from good to better. It wasn't because they had become good friends after drinking, that Chen Pingan would not take these two Jindan realm sword cultivators seriously. In fact, Chen Pingan watched the battle attentively and watched Chen Sanqiu and Yan Pei's swordsmanship. Many benefits.
Then Chen Pingan went to find Fan Dache.
Fan Dache felt helpless when he saw Chen Ping'an with a manly face. Being hostile to Chen Ping'an was such a bad luck for eight lifetimes. Instead of green smoke coming out of his ancestral grave, there was billowing black smoke, and the coffin could not hold it down.
Being helpless, Fan Dache was also very grateful. If it hadn't been for Chen Ping'an's appearance, Fan Dache would have been in a hurry for a long time.
Chen Pingan knelt down and threw a pot of Bamboo Sea Dongtian Wine to Fan Dache, and said with a smile: "Remember to remember me."
Dong Huafu said: "With Fan Dache's money, I learned how to use the drinks I bought as gifts to Fan Dache later."
Chen Pingan pretended not to hear and put a piece of yellow paper on his body to help get rid of the bloody smell. .
Die Zhang asked with a smile: "Go to pick up money elsewhere?"
Chen Ping'an nodded and said: "Just strolling around. Because I am worried that it will be a disservice and attract some big monsters in the dark. I don't have much attention, so I don't dare to contribute much. I plan to discuss it with the sword immortals and take charge of a small section of the city alone. If anyone wants to take the bait, you can go and see me. Take a look at the great monk's sword-wielding style. Remember to bring wine, don't let it go in vain."
Dong Huafu shook his head and said, "Then I won't go."
Die Zhang said with a smile. Forget it."
Fan Dache found Chen Pingan looking at him and said honestly: "I don't dare to go."
Chen Pingan said with a smile. Che, no one is going, but the wine can be here. It’s rare to see you.”
Die Zhang and Dong Hua Fu got up almost at the same time and continued to the south city.
Fan Dache also wanted to follow, but Chen Pingan stretched out his hand and pressed down, indicating that he was not in a hurry.
Chen Pingan said: "Do you feel a lot of pressure fighting side by side with these friends? It seems that once you help them, you will be held back once?"
Fan Dache nodded. .
Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Having such thoughts is actually not a bad thing, but if you want to be better, you should suppress these thoughts. Fan Dache, don't forget, you are a A bottleneck sword cultivator in the Dragon Gate Realm, he is less than three years old now.Ten years old. Do you know that in our vast world, even in Luzhou, Beiju, which is known as a sword cultivator like the clouds, a sword cultivator who will become a golden elixir sooner or later is such an amazing young man? ”
Chen Pingan pointed to himself, “It’s not that there are people like me in the world of Haoran. There are only people like Chen Pingan in the world of Haoran.” Among my peers on the mountain who are about the same age as you and me, there are certainly those who are better at killing enemies than me, and there should be quite a few. But there are many, many, many people who are not as good as me. "
Chen Pingan said slowly: "In my hometown, Dongbaopingzhou, I have traveled through many rivers and lakes. If you, Fan Dache, practice there, you will be a god with high hopes for the dynasty and the whole country. My proud son, you may think that I often joked in the past that I was a great monk of the fifth realm, which was a joke or a self-deprecation. In fact, that is not the case. Over there in my hometown, there is a cave realm monster and ghost, who is the well-deserved great monk. Demons are terrifying ghosts. Think about it, a golden elixir sword cultivator with an innate sword embryo may only be in his thirties. How can he be so superior in Aquarius Continent? "
Fan Dache nodded, "I have never thought about this before, and I am not very interested in the things in the world. Ever since I was a child, I have always felt that my qualifications were adequate, but not good enough.
Chen Pingan smiled, spread out his hands, put his fingers together and clicked on both ends, "What I said, Fan Dache feels that he can do anything when he is around Ningyao, Chen Sanqiu and the others." It's wrong, it's one extreme. Fan Dache seems to be able to fight an enemy country with a sword in my hometown, which is another extreme. Naturally, it is not advisable.
Chen Pingan put away one hand, made a fist with the other, and shook it in the middle of the previous line, "Things can be extreme and unavoidable, but the Taoist heart of a sword cultivator should be in Here, stay still. External affairs, when it comes to the big picture, are really just external affairs and difficult for us to fully control. However, the true heart of a cultivator is always just a matter at hand for you and me. It is close at hand, and it is the master who can sharpen and improve anytime and anywhere. effort. The human body is small and is just a cone in heaven and earth, but the human heart encompasses all things and can be higher and greater than the heaven and earth. Especially for sword cultivators, wherever thoughts and flying swords go, body, mind, and life are free. This sentence seems right to me. Along with this bottle of wine in your hand, I give it to you for free. "
Fan Dache's eyes were clear, he took a swig of wine, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Ping'an, if you had said these words to me before, I might have just understood them. But you may not really listen to it. It’s different now, I understand. ”
Chen Ping’an smiled and said: “Actually, it’s the same. I’ve gone through many hardships, big and small, and kept going, thinking about this and that, and that’s how I got to where I am today. "
Fan Dache was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked curiously: "Which sage and master said that sentence that was given to me along with the wine? The more I think about it, the more it makes sense. "
Chen Ping'an stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, "Da Che, even if you have a big brain and are not very smart, your eyes are not very good either. ”
FanDa Che stood up with a smile, slammed the wine bottle in his hand, and was about to go to Chen Sanqiu and the others.
I never thought that Chen Pingan would stretch out his hand, grab the empty wine bottle, stand up and curse: "You are a little Longmen realm swordsman, pretending to be your uncle's heroism in front of a dignified second realm monk, the wine bottle No money."
Fan Dache felt guilty and left quickly, but couldn't help but turn around and saw the second shopkeeper, tilting his head, putting his fingers on his temples, and then slowly took off one A disguised face.
Fan Dache asked: "Chen Pingan, if I can't forget her, am I hopeless?"
Chen Pingan put the face made by Zhu Lian into his sleeves and smiled. Said: "It's just about infatuation and infatuation. There's nothing better than this."
Fan Dache said doubtfully: "Didn't you say that when we first met? You called me a bitch." My head is bleeding."
The sluggish Chen Ping'an took out the sword-raising gourd, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "I don't have the energy to tell you the knowledge here, so you can figure it out yourself. Show some courage as a great swordsman in the Dragon Gate Realm, roosters fight against each other, and sword cultivators don’t hold grudges when fighting.”
Chen Ping’an is actually no longer worried about Fan Dache’s emotional injury. Neither his words nor his deeds are outstanding, but Chen Ping'an can be sure that Fan Dache's path to Taoism can be long-term. What Chen Ping'an was worried about at the moment was that he was afraid that Fan Dache would find out that he couldn't do it, or that if he couldn't do it well, it would be another kind of trouble.
A truth, if you have never known it, is itself an invisible negation. Knowing and recognizing it is a kind of affirmation, and not being able to do it is a kind of negation again.
Generally speaking, when it reaches this stage, that principle has reached a dead end and has reached a burial place in the heart, with no bones left. The most terrifying thing is that a series of knowledge similar to this will die, and a large area will die.
I never thought that Fan Dache said: "If I can't be as firm as you said in the future, and I can't help but be influenced by Chen Sanqiu and the others, Chen Pingan, please remember to remind me more, not once." Just two times, I don’t have any great merits, I just listen to advice.”
Chen Ping’an smiled and said, “That’s easy to say.”
Fan Dache finally said: “Then you. Please also listen to my advice. This war has to be fought. It will take at least a few days and a half. You should recover first before returning to the city. Otherwise, if this continues, we will need to leave the city and rush to the battlefield in the future. It is difficult for you to return to your peak. You are my swordsman. Even if you are not worried about yourself, you are still worried about my life. Do you want to drink free drinks in the future? ”
Chen Pingan nodded and said: "That makes sense."
Chen Pingan actually took out the talisman boat and left the city.
When Fan Dache arrived at the south wall, Ning Yao nodded and smiled at him: "Thank you."
Fan Dache wanted to keep his face straight, but couldn't, so he just laughed. stand up.
Dong Huafu commented: "You're stupid."
Among the group, Chen Sanqiu, who killed enemies with flying swords most freely and freely, smiled and said: "Dong Heitan, you have the ability to let Ning Yao, please thank me."
Dong Huafu turned around and asked, "Sister Ning, can you thank me?"
Ning Yao always looked ahead and spoke. I was rewarded with the word "Roll".
Dong Huafu nodded, expressing his acceptance, then turned to look at Chen Sanqiu and Fan Dache, and asked: "Sister Ning is never polite to me, can you do this?"
Chen Sanqiu gave a thumbs up.
Fan Dache took a deep breath and used his flying sword. The sword flashed and flew down the city.
Chen Pingan was driving the talisman boat. He had nothing to do, so he imitated his disciples, lying on the bow of the ferry and rowing with his hands. It seemed that it was really faster?
————
During the break between the battles, several young sword cultivators from other places withdrew from the south of the city to the wall in the north of the city. Another group of local sword cultivators were recharging their energy. , taking the position silently. But
when passing by them, most of them had a smile on their faces.
Yu Xuanfu sat on the north wall, chewing the last piece of pancake. He was full of punches, but could not punch. This made Yu Xuanfu, who could only watch the battle on the top of the city, the first in his life. At this time, there was a great desire to ascend to the realm of martial arts. After all, the golden body of the Seven Realms is not like the far journey of the Eight Realms. As long as you reach the far journey realm, you can control the wind like a qi practitioner, and you can go out. The punch is smooth and smooth.
Zhu Mei's face was pale and he was still frightened. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said nothing.
After she sacrificed her natal flying sword, she was in danger several times, either protected by the Kuxia Sword Immortal or rescued by Jin Zhenmeng. Even Lin Junbi, who was still only a sword cultivator in the Guanhai realm, helped her. Zhu Mei would have killed her once, if Lin Junbi hadn't seen through the disguise of a demon warrior and deliberately used his sword to lure him into using his trump card. In the end, Lin Junbi withdrew the flying sword among the lightning flints, and Jin Zhenmeng took advantage of the situation to kill the demon with his sword. Zhu Mei would have definitely died. If she wants to hurt her own flying sword, even if the avenue is not seriously damaged at all, she will retreat to the top of the city and go to the Sun Mansion to recuperate. From then on, the whole war has nothing to do with her.
Lin Junbi was talking to Jin Zhenmeng about his experiences in the previous war.
This should be the first time that Lin Junbi and Jin Zhenmeng chatted in private, talking about the gains and losses, flaws, mistakes and many subtleties of the swords played by both parties.
Jin Zhenmeng smiled warmly. Although he still didn't speak much, he was obviously closer to Lin Junbi.
This was also the first time that Jin Zhenmeng felt that Lin Junbi, a talented young man who seemed to be free from dust all year round, had some human flavor for the first time.
Lin Junbi took out an exquisite small porcelain vase made by the Shao Yuan Dynasty Manufacturing Office, and poured out three pills of different colors. He kept one goose yellow pill for himself, and the other two pills were crow blue and spring green. The elixirs were thrown to Jin Zhenmeng and Zhu Mei respectively.
Jin Zhenmeng and Zhu Mei were similar in that they both hesitated and still chose to accept it.Swallow the elixir yourself.
Lin Junbi began to hold his breath and concentrate, breathing in and out, the pills gradually dissolved, and the spiritual energy poured into several key Qi mansions.
Lin Junbi divided his mind and continued to think over and over the end of the question.
Every review can make Lin Junbi's heart a little more complete.
Back then, the young man in white who called himself Cui Dongshan asked Lin Junbi a question while twisting the pieces from the chessboard and putting them into the chess pot, asking Lin Junbi if he dared to stay in the Sword Qi Great Wall and use his sword to kill monsters.
Lin Junbi said he dared, but the risks were too great and the benefits too small, so it didn’t seem worth it.
"It's not a suggestion, it's an order. Because you are too stupid, so I have to say more, lest my good intentions will be turned into a plate of donkey liver and lungs by you. What was originally a great good thing will turn out to be yours. If you complain about my reasons, you will still feel aggrieved when I beat you to death."
Cui Dongshan pinched a chess piece with his fingers and shook it, "First, how many will you kill after you stay. The big monster is not important at all. It would be better if we could kill more and win the recognition of one or two sword immortals."
Cui Dongshan casually threw the chess piece into the chess jar and twisted it. Chess piece, "Second, there is Kuxia with you
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
If you pay attention to yourself, you will not die. Kuxia is better than You are stupider, but after all you are a rare good person on the mountain, so the more you act like a good person, the more decisive you are with your sword, and the more monsters you kill, the more Kuxia will recognize you on the city top every day. , Ku Xia has a death wish, so it is impossible to say that one day, Ku Xia is willing to change his way of death, just for himself, for you Lin Junbi, for the future pillar of the Shaoyuan Dynasty. At this moment. , you need to pay attention, don't let Kuxia Sword Immortal really die fighting for you here, you, Lin Junbi, must continue to use Zhu Mei and Jin Zhenmeng, especially Zhu Mei, to make Kuxia give up the idea of dying generously and escort you Leaving the Great Sword Qi Wall, remember that even if Kuxia Sword Immortal insists on returning to the Great Sword Qi Wall alone, he should escort you all to Nan Posuo Continent before he can turn around and return. I won't teach you how to do it and what's the point. You have a rusty brain at a young age, think about it yourself."
Cui Dongshan threw the second chess piece into the chess jar, "Third, on your way back from Daoxuan Mountain, you and Zhu Mei. , Jin Zhenmeng gets along with each other from beginning to end, and you must not add any extraneous details to try to win people's hearts. I might as well teach you a trick. Lin Junbi, who usually gets along with them day and night, is still the same Lin Junbi who has a high self-esteem in his bones. Lin Junbi, who uses his sword to kill monsters, must be a different person, otherwise your previous efforts will be in vain. Zhu Mei and Jin Zhenmeng are not like Yan Lu and Jiang Guancheng. The latter is pragmatic and the former is relatively pragmatic. They are two different worlds. Think carefully for yourself."
"Fourth, when you return to the Shaoyuan Dynasty in the Middle-earth Divine Continent, where the literary style is flourishing, just shut up and say nothing. If you can't shut up, just go away. Seclusion. Before you shut up, of course you should have a private conversation with your husband. You just need to be honest with me.Besides, there is no need to hide big or small things, and don’t treat your husband as a fool. The Imperial Master will understand your intentions, and instead of being disgusted, he will be pleased, because you and him are of the same mind. Naturally, he will secretly help you protect your way and do some things for you, a proud disciple. He will not go out personally to make you famous. His methods are too inferior. I believe that not only will the master of the country not do this, but he will also Control the fire and do the opposite. Yan Lu, who is stupider than you, is already your pawn anyway. When he returns to his hometown, he will do what he should do and say what he should say. However, the Imperial Master will suppress rumors in the Shaoyuan Dynasty and will not allow any exaggeration of your experience at the Great Wall of Sword Qi. Then you can wait for Xuegong Academy to speak for you. During this period, the more Lin Junbi keeps silent, the more Shao Yuan Dynasty keeps silent, praise from all directions will come to you, and you can't stop it even if you close the door. live. ”
“Not only the Shaoyuan Dynasty, but also all surrounding dynasties and vassals, emperors, generals, ministers, ministers, monks on the mountain, and people in the market below the mountain will all know that there is a young man named Lin Junbi who travels to the Great Wall of Sword Qi and faces the battle. If you dare not retreat, you can kill monsters with your sword. "
Cui Dongshan twisted the chess piece with his fingers and asked with a smile: "In this 'fourth', where is the most subtle point? Think carefully and don't let me down with the answer. ”
Lin Junbi replied: “If you let my husband feel that my behavior is still a little immature, and also allow him to do something that his students cannot do, then he will not have any thoughts in his heart.” Grievance. "
Cui Dongshan lost the chess piece, "Fortunately, at least he is not stupid enough to die. Just wait, the more fierce the battle at the Great Sword Qi Wall will be in the future, and the world will be stunned by a stick. If you wake up a little, Lin Junbi's deeds at the Great Sword Qi Wall will be more valuable. "
Cui Dongshan picked up a chess piece again and said with a smile: "Even those Confucian saints, gentlemen and sages who belong to different cultural backgrounds and traditions from your husband will look at you Lin Junbi with admiration. The Imperial Master regards you as a closed disciple who has a promising future, but the Confucian Academy may not continue to regard Lin Junbi as a disciple of the Imperial Imperial Master. The mystery here, if you experience it yourself, will make you feel like drinking mellow wine. ”
Cui Dongshan shook his fingers and chess pieces, “But don’t get carried away. All praise today will become criticism tomorrow, and the people who praise and criticize are often the same people.” This is another wonderful thing. If you think about it, it is another pot of wine, very intoxicating. "
Cui Dongshan lost the chess piece in his hand and smashed it into the chess pot. The chess pieces collided with a clear sound. He shook his sleeves and said, "Yan Lu can be put to good use." Zhu Mei must be recognized by her, especially the latter. If the relationship between the two parties is properly handled, you will have unexpected surprises. "
Lin Junbi asked softly: "Is it the family behind Zhu Mei? "
Cui Dongshan shook his head and said: "It's more than that. You are really confused, what kind of chess are you playing? Just look at one or two moves and want to win? "
Lin Junbi said sincerely: "Please Mr. Cui to clear up my doubts. "
Cui Dongshan said: "Zhu Mei saidWhat, it’s no better than what Yu Xuanfu saw with his own eyes, almost. The two women are inseparable, and their relationship is intimate and pure. What can't they say? Yu Xuanfu recognizes Zhu Mei's character, and Zhu Mei recognizes you, Lin Junbi, so he will naturally say some truly fair words for you. It is precisely because of Zhu Mei's innocence that Yu Xuanfu can listen. Then, in Yu Xuanfu's eyes, your poor performance in the Sword Qi Great Wall will not become a blemish in the life of Lin Junbi from the Shaoyuan Dynasty, but will actually aggravate her positive view of you. Is this understandable? "
Lin Junbi said softly: "I am afraid that my understanding will be wrong and not profound enough, so I would like to hear the details. "
Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "There is no fault in a person, and he is the most unapproachable. Once I deny you, then I approve you again. This kind of approval will be more firm and unshakable than when I first met you. Don't you understand this? I don't know how to play chess, and I can't understand people's minds. I feel a little regretful that I want to make this long-term deal with you. Why do you feel like you are going to lose money? Lin Junbi, after playing so many games of chess with you, I am not worried at all. I never wanted to do business with you, but instead I am worried. What should I do? "
Lin Junbi stopped talking.
Cui Dongshan narrowed his eyes, "You can only ask but not think? Do you know my patience is limited, I will kill you, do you know why? Answer wrong and you die. "
Sweat broke out on Lin Junbi's forehead, "I can be stupid to death, but I can't drag Mr. Cui's business trip and find a stupid person to do business. "
Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "Good boy, you can still teach me. "
Cui Dongshan put his palms on the chess pieces inside the chess jar, rubbed them gently, and said casually: "A Middle-earth sword cultivator who is smart enough but dares not to hesitate to die. He is also from the Middle-earth Divine Continent. Yu Jianfu, a pure martial artist, would not be disliked. What do you think the Yu family, and even the old man Zhou Shenzhi, will do to a young swordsman who can make Yu Xuanfu not annoying? Is it a dispensable little thing? Old men from the Yu family, Zhou Shenzhi, these old immortals, what about the original Lin Junbi, the so-called half-assed smart guy? Do you see less? The Yu family man single-handedly controlled the fall and rise of two dynasties. What kind of smart people have I not seen? Old Man Zhou has lived for thousands of years and is used to seeing the ups and downs of the world. What they rarely see is the kind of young people who are both smart and stupid. They are full of energy and do not take the world in their eyes, but they are full of a sense of stupidity. Dare to stand above some major issues of right and wrong, regardless of fame, fortune, or life. ”
Cui Dongshan gently raised his hand, leaving it an inch away from the chess pot, flipped his wrist slightly, and said with a smile: “This is the subtle changes in people’s hearts. The scenery is magnificent, but you can’t really see it.” Careful as hair? Those who practice Taoism are like gods and immortals. They don't use their good eyesight, pretend to be blind, practice Taoism, and cultivate a shitty Taoist mind. You, Lin Junbi, are a mountain man who is destined to show off your skills in the temple. You don't understand people's hearts. How do you identify and know people, and how do you use and control people? How can one use the human heart without doubt? "
Lin Junbi was sincerely convinced and solemnly said: "Mr. Cui is brilliant, Lin Junbi has learned from it. ”
CuiDongshan raised his head, "Gao Ming? Just use such a vulgar term to describe me."
Lin Junbi shook his head and said: "It's both high and wise! It's just the sun and the moon! This is what I am willing to spend my whole life on. The realm you want to pursue is definitely not the kind of mastery that ordinary people call it."
Cui Dongshan laughed loudly, "This flattering person is very like my Shantou style. It's very good. I'll have the opportunity in the future. It’s impossible to say that I really want to accept you as a disciple, and then you can go to the Patriarch Hall to kowtow, burn incense and hang up the statue.”
Lin Junbi actually had a guess in his mind, but it was too unbelievable to believe.
Cui Dongshan stopped his smile, looked down at the chessboard, and with a flick of his palm, all the chess pieces fell into the chess pot. Then he twisted out a solitary black piece and placed it on the chessboard, and then picked up white pieces one after another. A big circle was formed.
Cui Dongshan said: "Since I have cultivated you as a half disciple, then I have to show some real skills. Take Yan Lv as an example of this sunspot. You have to teach this sunspot that you feel very good." Freedom, the world is unlimited, and life is full of hope. But his heart and all his thoughts are actually under your control. His life, death, gain and loss are all under your control. "Inside."
Lin Junbi felt that this principle was simple and not difficult to understand.
Then Cui Dongshan formed a larger circle of sunspots outside of Bai Zi, "This is the human heart of old man Zhou and old man of the Yu family. How do you break the situation?"
Lin Junbi After pondering for a long time, he raised his arm and wiped his forehead, shook his head and said: "There is no solution, don't even think about breaking the situation."
Cui Dongshan nodded, "Yes, half right."
Cui Dongshan picked up a white piece and threw it on the chessboard outside the black piece. "On the chessboard, the situation is hard to change. After all, life is not a chess game. There is only one chess piece between each hand. But don't forget There is no restraint in the human heart, so you can just forget about it, hide in the distance, open your eyes, and carefully look at the bigger chessboard of heaven and earth. This is what Zhou Shenzhi is."
Lin Junbi. He stared down at the chessboard that was not a chess piece, lost in thought.
"Yo yo deer roar, eating wild grass, eating wild apples. I have fine wine, play the sheng and drums, but unfortunately there are no guests."
Cui Dongshan put away his eyes and looked at the earth He turned his head to look at the sky, and said with a smile: "A guest on the mountain, Lord in the clouds, saw the flying birds passing by, and they were all white."
On the top of the city, at this moment, Lin Junbi also imitated the "white clothes" "The boy" looked up.
That person is Cui Chan, who wrote the "Caiyun Pu".
His chess skills are even higher than those of Cui Han back then.
The young man in white put away the chess pot and chessboard. After standing up, he said the last words to Lin Junbi, "I teach you this to tell you that calculating people's hearts is meaningless. It's not the beginning." Get started."
————
Chen Pingan did not return to Ning Mansion directly, but went to the wine shop.
The shop is not closed, but there are no customers.
Zhang Jiazhen and Jiang Qu, two young long-term workers who previously helped in the wine shop, have secretly gone to Daoxuan Mountain like Jindan Sword Master Cui Wei. Zhongqiu and Pei Qiancao Qinglang will travel to Nanbosu Island. A young man followed Cui Dongshan to the Aquarius Continent.
The three people who are now helping in the wine shop are the young man named Qiu Long, the young girl named Liu E, and the youngest child named Taoban. They are all shop assistants selected by Diezhang, and they are all familiar neighbors.
Among them, Taoban is not the same as Feng Kangle, who has been saving money at a young age to prepare for a wife. Although the peach board is not afraid of the sky and the earth, there is only one muscle left in the peach board. Qiu Long and Liu E, who were originally sitting at the table chatting, saw the amiable second shopkeeper. They still acted nervously and stood up, as if they were just lazy when sitting at the wine table. Chen Pingan smiled and stretched out his hand to press twice, " There are no guests, please feel free."
Only Taoban was lying on a bench at a wine table elsewhere, staring blankly at the deserted street.
Chen Ping'an sat at the wine table and asked with a smile: "Why are you not happy that you can't win over Feng Kangle when you win over your little wife?"
Taoban said gloomily: "Two Shopkeeper, tell me, am I the kind of swordsman that no one can tell?"
Chen Pingan was speechless.
Chen Pingan patted the table and said, "Go and bring me a pot of wine, as usual."
Taoban got up unwillingly and shouted: "Sister Liu E, go and follow The second shopkeeper brought a pot of wine, don't forget to collect the money."
Chen Pingan took out a snowflake and handed it to Liu E, saying that he would not use the pickles and Yangchun noodles, but only drink. Soon the girl brought a pot of wine and a white bowl and placed them gently on the table.
Chen Pingan poured a bowl of Zhuhai Dongtian wine and took a sip of the wine.
Taoban sat up and lay on the wine table, feeling a little bored. He tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Second shopkeeper, I don't want to sell wine all my life."
Chen Pingan He smiled and asked: "Then what do you want to do?"
Taoban said: "I haven't thought about it either."
Chen Pingan drank the wine and said nothing more.
Taoban had nothing to say and said: "Second shopkeeper, do you know that a lot of people are saying bad things about you behind your back. Many of the customers who come to buy wine from us have complained for you. There are many words. , just listening to it is quite irritating."
Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "I don't know. Tell me?"
Taoban started pouring beans into the bamboo tube. 1510 said the words that I heard.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
When Taoban saw that the second shopkeeper was just drinking and not angry, the child became a little angry and said angrily: "Second shopkeeper, you are not deaf, did you listen to me?"
< p>Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I'm listening."The east wind blew up the willow catkins, and the east wind blew down the willow catkins.
The same east windThe same willow catkins, ups and downs, what do you care about.
This is just such a boring truth, and there is no need to repeat it to a child.
So Chen Ping'an seemed to realize it later, feigning anger: "These bastards are so annoying."
The child eagerly asked: "What should we do?"
Chen Pingan hovered the wine bowl in his hand and squinted: "Are you helping me fight, or are you helping me look out for the wind?"
Taoban sighed and leaned on the table again. "When there are a lot of customers, I feel tired. Without customers, I feel bored again. What's going on."
Chen Ping'an joked: "That's right, what's going on."
Taoban glared and said, "You are so boring. You are no longer a storyteller. You don't care about the shop. You don't know what to do all day long."
Chen Pingan waved and said: "I spent money to buy wine. I should have a plate of pickles and a bowl of Yangchun noodles for you."
Taoban smiled from ear to ear.
Liu E, who had been listening carefully to the conversation, immediately went to greet Uncle Feng and make a bowl of Yangchun noodles for the second shopkeeper.
Chen Pingan drank wine leisurely.
For no reason, he thought of the disaster that happened to Mr. Liu in the Lion Garden of Qingluan Kingdom.
The scholars who cherish their feathers value their reputation the most, so they are most afraid of losing their reputation at the end of the year.
Cui Dongshan said that those interlocking and sinister methods were all the ideas of Liu Qingfeng, the eldest son of the old servant, and Li Baozhen, a fellow villager in the small town, just followed them.
Chen Pingan turned his head and looked at the large and small restaurants on the street behind him, that empty street.
In fact, the people and words Taoban said did not surprise Chen Pingan at all. It can even be said that he had already guessed it, just like Chen Pingan's inscription on the side of the seal, There are no accidents in this world.
For Chen Pingan today, it is difficult to be angry.
It has nothing to do with that disappointment.
There must be someone who once met the young master Chen Sanqiu at a wine table or on Taixiang Street or Yuhu Street. Some people flattered Chen Sanqiu but to no avail, so they began to secretly hate Chen Sanqiu. The second shopkeeper and Chen Sanqiu If they are friends, then let's bear the grudge together with Chen Ping'an.
There must be a sword cultivator who looked down on Diezhang's background but envied Diezhang's opportunities and cultivation. He hated the hustle and bustle of the wine shop and hated the young second shopkeeper who was always in the limelight.
There are those peers who once followed the trend and ridiculed Fatty Yan. Later, Yan Pei's realm became higher and higher. From looking down and scorning, he became more and more needing to look up to Yan Pei, Ning Mansion, and Chen We are all familiar with each other, but this group of people will feel unhappy and scratch their hearts.
There must be those young drinkers who tried to have a close relationship with the second shopkeeper at Diezhang Liquor Shop. They just felt that they could never talk to each other. At first, they didn’t think much about it and just followed. As Chen Pingan's fame grew, it became a real loss of personal interests in the minds of those people. As time went by, they stopped going there.While buying wine and drinking, they also like to exchange sarcastic remarks about the small wine shop and Chen Pingan with their friends in other restaurants. It is very satisfying. The more people who agree, the better the drinking experience will be.
These people, especially when they think about how they once pretended to be squatting on the roadside with those sword cultivators, drinking wine and eating pickles, suddenly feel uncomfortable, so they arrange a wine shop with their colleagues. Get more and more energetic.
The busier the wine shop, the better the business. People who are drinking elsewhere and saying those weird words look around. Even if there are few people around, they have many reasons to comfort themselves. They may even feel that everyone is drunk. , I am sober like this, in twos and threes, hugging each other for warmth, and becoming close friends, which is sincere.
Buddhist scriptures say that all plants and trees are moistened by one rain, but each one has its own differences.
As the old saying goes, the same rice feeds all kinds of people, but it actually means the same thing.
It is very easy to deny anyone.
Whether it is the boss of the Great Sword Wall, the Confucian moral saint in the world, or the sages of hundreds of schools of thought, any person in the world can be easily denied as long as others want to find fault. I kill others in my heart.
Everyone can do things that can be done, otherwise you will stand out. You can’t just do it, otherwise you’ll be mediocre and you’ll be the one who suffers in the end.
It would be difficult to truly recognize someone.
Chen Ping'an's pleasure now is not to compete with them at all, but to have free time. As long as he has the opportunity, he will try his best to take a look at the complicated lives of these people and the world of their hearts.
Chen Pingan took a big sip of wine. The bowl of wine was already finished, so he poured another bowl.
Looking at Taoban who was devouring it, Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."
Taoban ignored it.
Chen Pingan drank wine and missed his hometown.
When he was young, in a small town, a child once climbed a tree to retrieve a broken paper kite hanging on a high branch, but was accused of being a thief.
Once I was watching the play and fight of his peers in the Immortal Tomb from a distance. Someone was bitten by a snake. The child hurriedly asked, secretly learned, and eavesdropped at the Yang's shop. The herbal prescription was used to apply medicine to the child bitten by a snake.
After that, when I saw this black charcoal child from Mud Bottle Lane who had been alone all year round and watched them play from a distance, it was precisely these who scolded them the most and threw the mud the hardest. Peers who have come into contact with the Orphans of Mudbottle Alley.
At that time, Chen Ping'an didn't understand why this happened. As he grew older, he would understand that if they didn't do this, they would lose their friends.
But this does not delay those children. When they grow up, they will be filial to their parents, help the elderly in the neighborhood carry water, and grab water in the middle of the night.
There will also be those young people who become hustlers, and some are even lucky enough to become the helpers of the wealthy gangs on Fulu Street and Taoye Lane, and they will be found day and night. When given the opportunity, he would glare angrily and act fiercely.
Even so, there is still no delay among these people. Some of them will get the reward and return home, leading their younger brothers and sisters, whose clothes are shabby and shabby, and whose toes have been standing "outside the door" all year round, to the elementary school. They go to the shop, spend a lot of money, buy a lot of new year's goods, and then let their parents cook a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, which is lively and reunited.
I will make bamboo dragonflies, bamboo knives and swords for my younger brothers and sisters.
There are also people who are all bad-hearted when they are young, and they are still like this when they grow up. Then they get married and have children, and their life is okay, not too good. The family never cares about what is right or wrong. Instead of quarreling about right and wrong, all the cognitions of the family seem to have a harmony similar to that of a small world. Even though Chen Ping'an became a kiln worker's apprentice, he still didn't understand why it was so at the time. Later, he went through many rivers and lakes and read a lot of books before he understood the reason.
The child in Mud Bottle Lane is growing up day by day. Regarding those experiences when he was young, every moment, he will be unhappy and aggrieved, big and small.
I can only squat alone, shake my head, play with grass, or make ridiculously rough little clay figures in front of the dilapidated statues at the Immortal Tomb.
I would also pick up a dead branch casually, and jump up and down alone on a rural road with lush vegetation, using the dead branch as a sword, slashing all the way, panting and very happy.
I would also suffer from toothache and my face would be red and swollen. I could only chew some local herbs in my mouth and not want to talk for several days.
But as long as there is no illness or disaster, no pain anywhere on the body, even if you eat a meal or go hungry, you are happy.
I would also be unable to sleep in the middle of the night, so I would go to Suolongjing or under the old locust tree alone. As a lonely child, as long as I look at the bright stars in the sky, I will feel as if I have nothing. It seems like everything is available.
Later, the little slug in the same alley grew up and could walk and talk.
The straw-shoe boy in Mubo Alley also met Liu Xianyang.
Later I became a kiln worker’s apprentice, and I felt that I had a little extra hope in life.
You must take care of more little slugs and learn more skills from Liu Xianyang.
Chen Pingan hopes that the three of them will be well fed and clothed in the future. No matter what happens in the future, whether it is a major disaster or a small obstacle, they can go through it smoothly, get through it, and survive.
The little slug said that he must make a lot of money so that his mother can wear gold and silver every day when she goes out, and she also wants to move to the house on Fulu Street.
When all the bastards who have bullied their mother-in-law don’t go looking for trouble, they will be so scared to death that they will slap themselves in the mouth, and even come to the house with chickens and ducks to admit their mistakes. , otherwise Gu Can would not forgive them. If he scolded him a hundred times before, he would scold him several hundred times. If he kicked him once before, he would kick him back seven or eight times, until the opponent was all over the floor. Rolling and almost dying.
Liu Xianyang said that he wanted to become the person with the best craftsmanship at the entrance of all Long Kiln kilns, and that he wanted to learn all the skills of Old Man Yao. The porcelain he fired by himself wanted to become an object placed on the emperor's table, and also Let the emperor treat it as a family heirloom. One day when he gets older and becomes an old man, Liu Xianyang will definitely be more majestic than Old Man Yao, scolding all the clumsy disciples and apprentices to pieces every day.
Liu Xianyang also hopes that he can break bricks with just one punch and cross the widest stream in one step. All those who studied in school will say a few sour words. The guys who wrote all looked up to him, Liu Xianyang, and begged him to write Spring Festival couplets for his old Liu family.
At that time, there were almost three people who had their own wishes. In fact, everyone felt that they were very big and the biggest at that time.
But no one thought that compared with the three people's future life experiences, such a big wish at that time seemed to be not big, or even very small.
It’s just that Gu Can has become the kind of person that all three of them hated the most.
Liu Xianyang did not become that kind of hero, but became a veritable scholar.
Chen Pingan, who just wanted to live a stable life, did not live that stable life.
I made a lot of money, traveled far and wide, and met many people and things that I never dared to think about before. He is no longer the child with straw sandals carrying a big basket up the mountain to collect herbs. He has just changed into a big basket that is invisible and intangible. It is full of things that he cannot bear to forget to throw away on the road of life. He picks them up one by one and puts them into the basket behind his back. Stories big and small.
The endings of some stories are far from happy. Lovers fail to become dependents. Good-hearted people seem to have no reward. Some partings that were not sad at the time actually have no chance of reunion. The endings of some stories are beautiful but also have shortcomings. Some stories don’t have that ending yet.
But Chen Pingan has always believed that there is nothing wrong with seeing light in darkness and giving birth to hope in desperate situations.
Chen Pingan put down the wine bowl and was lost in thought.
I remembered that old man Yao who liked to be alone with his hands in his sleeves.
I remember the first time I followed the old man into the mountains to look for soil suitable for making porcelain. Suddenly there was a heavy snowfall. The wind was biting and the snow was knee deep. The boy in thin straw sandals almost froze to death.
The silent old man went on his way, but slowed down his pace, and rarely said a few words, "Walking on the mountain road in the winter, the weather was freezing, and I finally made some money. Are you reluctant to spend the money just to freeze yourself to death?"
"It's cold and the journey is long, so why don't you think about it? If your parents don't teach you, why don't you think about it? ”
On the seemingly endless windy and snowy road, the suffering young man could not even cry when he heard the more heartbreaking words.
The old man never cared about Chen Pingan's life and death.
But when Chen Pingan really felt that despair again, someone caught up with him.Not only did he bring Chen Ping'an a large package containing a heavy cotton-padded jacket and dry food, the tall young man also yelled that the old man who had bowed to his teacher for many years was not a thing.
Chen Pingan was not careful and someone stretched out his hand to strangle his neck, causing him to fall backwards.
Not only did the man not stop when he saw the situation, but he strengthened his arm and rubbed Chen Ping'an's head vigorously with the other hand. He laughed and said: "He is quite tall now! I asked Did I agree?"
Chen Pingan's eyes turned red and he murmured: "Why are you here now?"
The only person in the world who can give advice on Chen Pingan's life. , and the person Chen Pingan was also willing to listen to arrived at the Great Wall of Sword Qi.
Because he is Liu Xianyang.
