The old scholar took Liu Shiliu to visit this Huaihuang County town. Liu Shiliu had never visited Lizhu Cave, so he couldn't talk about the sense of right and wrong between things and people.
The big man is only sad.
This is the place where Xiao Qi feels at ease despite being in a foreign land.
It is easy for true scholars to look around at a loss. The most difficult thing is to find "my hometown" where they can put their mind at ease on the road of study with no boundaries in the sea of books.
Liu Shiliu regretted his "returning to the mountain" trip. He should have waited. Even if he still couldn't change the ending of Lizhu Cave, he could still let Xiao Qi know that when he was far away alone, While swimming, there was still a fellow disciple watching him behind him.
How can you not be so alone, as if you are the enemy of the whole world? How can you not be lonely, and even make people pity, make people laugh, and make people incomprehensible.
The old scholar said softly: "Silly man, don't be too sad. As scholars, when we read books to study, we should understand them with our heart. We should be neighbors and friends of the sages of the past dynasties. After putting down the books of sages, we should do our best to save others. Who?"
The old scholar murmured and repeated, "Who else would it be for me?"
Liu Shiliu nodded, but he was still a little depressed. Constraining one's own nature has indeed always been his specialty.
As time goes by, Haiwu has gained more and more. In terms of true age, not to mention several senior brothers, even his husband and close friend Bai Ye are not as "older" as him.
It’s just that there is a sequence of hearing.
That's why the short, thin old scholar next to Liu Shiliu was called the "old" scholar.
Huaihuang County is now the top county of the Great Li Dynasty.
For the people in the small town, the most profitable job was to make porcelain and rely on the mountains and rivers. Nowadays, almost all the local people have left the small town and Long Kiln and sold their ancestral homes. They moved to the state capital one after another to enjoy the blessings. In the past, the largest and only official in the town was the supervisor. Now, officials and subordinates of all sizes can be seen everywhere. Now the peach blossoms bloom every year, and there is no old porcelain mountain. And the Immortal Tomb, but there is the incense of the Wenwu Temple. On the top of the mountains and on the banks of the rivers, there are landscape temples with an endless stream of pilgrims.
In the old town, there was no county government, but there were old locust trees covering acres of land. Under the trees at dusk, there would be a gathering of old people talking about the old almanac. When they got tired of hearing the stories, they thought about themselves. Children playing by themselves. In the hot summer, when the children are tired of playing, they run to the iron-locked well and wait eagerly for the elders in the family to lift the basket from the well and cut the naturally frozen fruits one by one, even if the weather is warm. The clothes are hot, but the water is cold, the melons are cold, and the knives are cold. It seems that even the eyes are cold.
The old scholar came to the ruins of the iron lock well. The well without the iron rope is still there, but the mystery inside is gone. Now the Yamen has relaxed its restrictions, and it is just the county gate to draw water. There is a lot less, because now the small county town is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and there are many monks who come here to soak up the dragon energy, spiritual energy, fairy energy, and the mountain water energy, so there is not much market atmosphere in the town at the moment. On the contrary, it is not as good as the northThe city is filled with smoke and chickens crowing and dogs barking.
The old scholar suddenly laughed and said: "Your younger brother was a kiln worker's apprentice in his early years, and his craftsmanship was very good. But later he traveled far away as a young man. Because he thought he was not a real apprentice, he never took action easily, so in the future you If you meet your junior brother, you can ask him to help you burn some literati's offerings, the four treasures of the study, Xiao Jiuhou, etc. Just pick a few and tell him directly, don't be too open-minded, your junior brother has never been a stingy person. "
Liu Shiliu hummed.
This time I reunited with my husband after a long absence. Along the way, my husband never left my junior brother. Liu Shiliu heard it in his ears and remembered it in his heart. He didn’t feel any taste at all, but was happy because of his state of mind. , haven’t been so relaxed for a long time.
Of course the old scholar had something to say, but after waiting for a long time, the stupid guy didn't realize what he was saying and kicked Liu Shiliu in the calf.
The teacher feels a lot of guilt towards the young disciple and is too embarrassed to ask for things in person. Why don’t the other students know how to share the teacher’s worries? After all, the big stupid guy is not as smart as the younger junior brother. There is a huge difference.
Liu Shiliu immediately understood and said: "The student also begs for a few things for your husband."
The old scholar pretended to be difficult, rubbed his hands and said: "What a decent thing, what a success." "It's decent."
Liu Shiliu said: "Sir, he didn't say anything. The younger brother is so smart, so he will understand."
The old scholar immediately changed his face, stroked his beard and smiled, " Of course, your junior brother is the most talented in the word "ten thousand" and "one". The disciples can learn very well on their own, even if the teacher doesn't teach them well, everyone says. My ability in recruiting disciples is unparalleled in the world. Actually, sir, I am embarrassed."
In fact, the great master Suishan did not say anything about the old scholar Chen Chun'an, Bai Ze, and later, when it came to recruiting Chen Ping'an as a closed disciple. Bai Ye actually didn't even agree with him.
So God knows who the old scholar refers to as "everyone".
Liu Shiliu nodded and said: "Just listening to some of the rumors Mr. Bai Ye heard, I am sure that my junior brother is a very smart person."
The old scholar laughed.
Long-awaited refreshment.
The silly big man praised the three of them, saying that the husband is discerning, the junior brother is smart, and the senior brother is sure of himself.
Yes, yes, very kind.
In terms of worldly knowledge, among the four direct disciples at that time, Cui Chan was of course the first. In fact, the stupid guy could be ranked second. He just didn't like to talk and pretended to be boring. When he is willing to speak, he is often stubborn. For example, he once asked A Liang to beat him. There are four senior brothers in the same school. There is no closeness or distance between them. They only talk about how much they get along with each other. Although Xiao Qi and Zuo Zuo have constant disputes, they are actually closer. Cui Yi and Liu Shiliu have a good relationship. Too many thoughts and too few words, so it is the best thing to do.
When Liu Shiliu was walking in the town, in addition to walking with his husband, he was also paying attention to many details, whether the aura of the door god was posted on every house, and whether the incense in the Man Mo Temple wasThe size of the weather, whether the flow of mountains and rivers in counties and prefectures is stable and orderly... All these are the increasingly perfect knowledge of senior brother Cui Chan, an invisible "manifestation of the great road" in the Great Li Dynasty.
You need to know that "the human heart is dangerous, but the Taoist heart is weak" are the first eight characters of the sixteen-character "Xin Chuan" in the Confucian context.
In Liu Shiliu's eyes, Cui Chang's more than a hundred years of meticulous cultivation in Dali and Aquarius Island can be said to be both heavy and light.
In his early years, Cui Chan, who was not a great Li national master but just a embroidered tiger of the literary sage lineage, had too many words to say about the world, but Cui Chan became more and more knowledgeable. , was born with a high-spirited temperament and was so arrogant that the only one who was willing to listen in this life seemed to be Liu Shiliu. Only this taciturn junior brother was worthy of what Cui Chan was willing to say.
Liu Shiliu said: "The golden body of the ancient remnant was shattered. The student's original intention was to give it to Beiyue Territory as a gift to Lord Wei Shan of Piyun Mountain. He never thought that there was a strange existence on the side of Qilong Lane. He was able to use his magical power to collect all the fragments of the golden body. Judging from what Wei Shanjun meant, he didn't seem surprised by this, and he seemed to have no grudge."
The old scholar nodded and said: "The man from Qilong Lane. Fellow Taoist Changshou, with an extraordinary background, is the incarnation of the ancestral coin of ancient gold essence and copper coins. She is now the temporary anonymous enshrinement of Luopo Mountain. She came to collect the fragments of the golden body, and the avenues fit together. Naturally, everyone except Wei Shanjun, who is from the Beiyue realm, can be found. People who practice Taoism can only be confused. Mr. Wei Shan is also used to taking the blame for Luo Po Shan. So when you meet Mr. Wei in the future, be more polite. Look at how generous he is. We held one night banquet after another without blinking an eye."
Liu Shiliu said: "Then I will go find Senior Brother Zuo later and smash a few more people who covet the mountains and rivers of Beiyue. The golden body of the remnant. Please make an agreement with fellow Taoist Changsheng in advance and let her give 50% to Piyun Mountain."
The old scholar nodded happily and said with a smile: "It is indeed a good thing to help others and yourself. Get used to it."
It won't be a big problem for the time being.
Even if there is any accident, being a teacher is not just a job.
Furthermore, Liu Shiliu’s words were useless when he was on the left and right of his senior brother.
This guy, Zuo Zuo, has always liked to show off as a senior since he was a child. Back then, he was very coquettish and awkward at the Jianqi Great Wall Liquor Shop.
In the past, every time the old scholar wanted to drink more, or open a small stove to entertain the five internal organs temple, he would persuade the stupid big man to go to the left and right people who were in charge of the money bag to discuss it. Today If you have money, spend it today. If you don’t have money, borrow it tomorrow. In the end, it won’t work all at once. Xiao Qi was more kind. When he had free time, he would go out to set up stalls and help people write Spring Festival couplets. Every time he earned some personal money, he would not take it from Senior Brother Zuo. Then he would teach a few students and secretly leave Zuo Zuo behind every time. , first stand against the wall outside the house, burp and let go of the alcohol, and then enter the door, you can't control the left and right.
Liu Shiliu asked: "On the way here, Bai Ye mentioned something to me, sayingThe former hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall, Xiao Xun, said that she should be in harmony with the wild world. "
The old scholar said: "Xiao Xun is a sword cultivator, and he is in harmony with the world of Tao. Of course, he should not be underestimated. He just pushed the left and right, and he did not need to be in harmony with the world of Tao to reach the fourteenth realm..."
p>Speaking of this, the old scholar was worried and shook his head: "It's best not to do this. Who in the Fourteenth Realm can be a free person. What's more, your senior brother Zuo is still the most tabooed swordsman. It's not like you don't know what a big trouble this is. If you are stubborn, let alone you junior brothers, even my husband can't speak very well. Back then, I was not willing to learn swordsmanship.
Liu Shiliu said: "Senior Brother Zuo practiced swordsmanship very late, but he was able to make the 'Sword Immortal Embryo' become a joke on the mountain. Even Bai Ye felt that the great avenues of left and right are not small, and the swordsmanship will be great." high. "
The old scholar sighed with emotion: "The way of profit and loss must be observed. ”
While walking along the way, many passers-by on the street paid attention to the burly Liu Shiliu. Fortunately, Longzhou is now accustomed to the visits of gods on the mountain, and they don’t find that big man scary.
Because of the agreement between closed disciple Chen Pingan and Ni Pingxiang Zhigui, the Dali Dynasty repaid the old well by leaving only an "illusion" similar to the existence of Xiaodongtian, and moved the "truth" to Luoluo Mangkhut Beside the pond behind the building, there is a cave in the well. Although the Dali Song family knows the goods and the many secret uses of the well, they have been unable to open up the small cave alone. After all, there are too few sword immortals in Aquarius Island, otherwise there are too few sword immortals in the well. The small cave is not very big, but it is a very good place for cultivation. It is especially suitable for the cultivation of dragons and water monsters. Of course, it is also possible that Cui Dongshan deliberately hides his secrets and has long regarded the well as his own. .
The old scholar sat by the well for a while, thinking about how to open up the Dongtian Blessed Land and connect the Lotus Root Blessed Land and the Little Cave Heaven. After thinking about it, he found someone to help him. Fortunately, after all, the old scholar could help. I still saved some love in Haoran Tianxia, but it was too difficult to borrow money, so I could only say with emotion, "A penny can stump a heroic man, but a poor scholar is worried to death." Liu Shiliu said that I could borrow it from Bai Ye. Money. But the old scholar shook his head and said that borrowing money from friends would hurt his feelings. Then the old man looked up at the stupid man, and Liu Shiliu thought about it and said that it was not a loan from Bai Ye.
It is said that when Bai Ye sent Jun Qian back to the mountain for the first time, he wrote the word "spectacular" in drunken letters, and deliberately added a little more of the word "zhuang"
It means my friend Jun Qian's spirit. It's more than a little majestic, looking at the mountains and rivers of the world for thousands of years.
Thinking back to that time, the most proud scholar in the world was able to write this book, and he was not disappointed at all.
After sending his friend back to the mountain, when he was going down the mountain alone, Bai Ye stood in the human world with his sword, splitting the Yellow River Cave and Heaven with one sword. The scholar used his own power to resist the way of heaven, so that the Divine Continent of Middle Earth no longer has to worry about severe drought.
It even made the water transport in the world skyrocket by 10% with this move.
So high-spirited.
He was born in the old god of Shenshui Kingdom.Wei Bo, of course, also highly praised Bai Bai.
The only person who can be so polite and unobtrusive to Bai Ye is probably this "Brother Jun Qian" who once visited immortals with Bai Ye.
The old scholar then smiled broadly, stood up, patted the silly big man's arm hard, and praised him, "Sixteen, you are making progress."
Is there any senior brother in the world who doesn’t take care of his junior brother? Anyway, there is absolutely no literary sage in his family.
It’s not that the old scholar couldn’t get some money on his own. Hedao is so vast in the world. No matter how deeply hidden the treasures are, they can’t escape his eyes. He just does something and doesn’t do something. , I still need to talk about the rules of how to get money, especially the order of the road. If you get it today unreasonably, you will inevitably lose it tomorrow. It is not cost-effective. If you are a teacher, you will not give it to the youngest, who is starting to become more mature. The proud disciple caused chaos.
Taking Liu Shiliu to the Grand Scholar’s Square, commonly known as Crab House, the old scholar stopped and said: "This is the ascension platform that Qingtong Tianjun is responsible for guarding, and it turned out to be like this after being refined. "
The old scholar put his hand behind his back and pointed to the sky with one hand, "There was once a heavenly general who was responsible for guiding the earthly immortals to ascend. Of course, the so-called earthly immortals at that time knew that the world was 'true'. , are more valuable than "celestial immortals". They live forever and travel on land. They are called land immortals. As for today's Nascent Soul and Golden Pill, they are also known as earth immortals, but they are actually incomparable. The "seeking truth" in the Immortal Realm is actually about seeking such truth, realizing the way of heaven, being free from fatigue, and finally ascending in that earth-shaking and generous fight. This heavenly general is wearing the "Great Frost" treasure. A is the only one who chooses to fight to the death, and gives it to a certain old senior...wrong, to a senior who is not old at all, so that so and so is nailed to the door with one sword."
The last truth in the world. It is not without reason that the dragon has to escape here after going through countless hardships. As long as the Qingtong Tianjun is willing to reopen the ascension platform, then it has a glimmer of hope. The sky is gone. Of course, it cannot ascend, but it can escape to a certain place. It is not difficult to break into the secret realm of broken mountains and rivers. When the time comes, it will truly be a world of heaven and earth. It's just that Qingtong Tianjun, as one of the biggest criminals in the world, is in a difficult situation, which is no different than the clay Bodhisattva crossing the river. Even if it is not difficult to protect himself, it is good
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)< /p>
It seems that I need to hold the incense above my head with both hands every day to prevent the incense from being cut off. Naturally, I don't want to break the big rules with those three fifteenth realms for a little real dragon.
In a Lizhu Cave, Old Man Yang used a series of interlocking truths to cover up the shallow illusion visible to the world. In fact, it was to hide the biggest truth. This was the real blindness.
The old scholar stopped for a long time at the archway and looked up at one of the plaques.
Liu Shiliu asked: "This time when the Savage World enters the Haoran World, that guy with the pseudonym Zhou Zhou has many tricks. Sir, do you know who this person is?"
Liu Shi Liu has never been very interested in world affairs because of his status.
Old showThen his expression became solemn and he said slowly: "My surname is Jia, I won't say my full name, so as not to attract his prying eyes. He was once a disciple of our Confucian school, so just call him Jia Sheng."
Liu Shiliu immediately understood, "It turned out to be him."
When he thought about it again, he felt that it was unexpected and reasonable.
Historically, many scholars "after Jia Sheng's death" complained on behalf of this person. Some even bluntly said that "the only great scholar of the generation was Jia Sheng." The person who said this was not an ordinary person.
The so-called great Confucianism refers to praising Jia Sheng for his great talent, courage and generosity. Obviously, within the Confucian context, there is not the slightest objection to today's rules. In the Western Buddhist country and the Qingming world, there is no contention among a hundred schools of thought.
Liu Shiliu asked: "In your opinion, sir, what do Jia Sheng's twelve strategies for peace look like?"
"A strong dose of medicine can really bring peace." ”
The old scholar smiled and said: “Unfortunately, there is a problem. Even if Jia Sheng treats diseases, even if he saves people, the medicine is too strong. For example, in the markets around us, no matter how good the medicine is, After a few years or ten years, it is probably just a medicine jar. How can people not worry about it? These are just the surface. The real crux is that Jia Sheng's knowledge and Confucianism are fundamentally different. "
Liu Shiliu asked softly: "That's why you categorically rejected your senior brother's achievements and knowledge?"
The old scholar hesitated and shook his head: "His work knowledge is better than that of Jia Sheng, because instead of tearing down and starting over, rebuilding the house, and nailing the windows, there is only one door left. Your senior brother's work knowledge is far less extreme than Jia Sheng's."
The old scholar pointed to the plaques on the archways that had lost their luster and asked: "The plaques are hung high, and the couplets are often posted at wide places. Why?"
Liu Shiliu followed. The gentleman pointed with his finger and replied: "Walking on the wide road will help you to be steady and go to the high place."
The old scholar nodded in approval, and then took Liu Shiliu around After walking around the archway, I told this disciple some inside stories from my heart.
There are four plaques, "Do your duty", "Hope to speak naturally", "Don't ask outsiders" and "Bullfighting in anger".
After going around in a circle, they came back to the plaque of "Doing My Duties".
The old scholar focused on Taoism.
The person who praised the words "Xi Yan Nature" on the Taoist plaque here was the Taoist disciple, Bai Yujing Grand Master, who finally transformed the three qing dynasties in one go, on Fulu Street in Lizhu Cave, Li Xisheng, the scholar who was promoted to Li Jian by Tao Dai, was in the lineage of Confucianism, and the Shengao Sect was in the Taoist sect. There was another one left, even though he was an old scholar, he still didn’t know that he was a disciple of Buddhism anyway.
The dispute between the three religions is mine alone.
I argue with myself, but people are living in the world but have no fight with the world. It is like a vain ship that bumps into the boat. Although there are people who are worried about it, they are not angry.
This is how great the Taoist master’s Taoism is.
Compared to the mixed reviews of Bai Yujing's other two masters, this Taoist disciple has excellent reputations in several worlds except Qingming World.
What's more, Dao Laoer and Lu Chen both accepted disciples on behalf of their masters. Only Taozu's close disciples were replaced by Lu Chen as their masters and apprentices.
Liu Shiliu frowned slightly.
The old scholar patted his arm and said, "Don't think too much. Although Li Xisheng, one of the three people in Lizhu Cave, is a late visitor, in the Haoran world, Xiao Qi is the latecomer." Not to mention the Tao boss himself, he had no intention of targeting Xiao Qi. It was more the method of the other two branches of Bai Yujing. Li Xisheng had been unable to control himself back then. If Lu Chen hadn't come here to plan, Xiao Qi and Li Xisheng would have been like that. The battle for the great road is like the collision of pillars in the water, making huge waves and majestic mountains and rivers. Regardless of the victory or defeat, there may not be the slightest bit of sordidness..."
Even if the old scholar speaks from his heart, he says. Up to this point, I still haven’t confided in my disciples.
The old scholar originally wanted to say, "People of the same Taoism, establish religions and call themselves ancestors, one is upright and the other is right, and the Taoism benefits each other."
Whether it is Li Xisheng or the Taoist boss, It's still Xiao Qi. Once the two sides really start discussing Taoism, they will definitely have this mind.
It just didn’t make it that far.
The matter has come to this, the overall situation has been decided, and it is useless to say more.
It’s just that the old scholar doesn’t want to say too much about this, it doesn’t mean he really doesn’t care.
Old scholars never advocate the bottomless practice of repaying evil with kindness. That is not magnanimity, but ignorance.
Liu Shiliu turned his head and had to lower his head to see the profile of his husband.
The husband looked up at those four words, feeling very sentimental.
It’s just that my husband is too lonely. There are not many people who can drink with him and make him talk freely.
The inscription on the plaque reads "Do your duty without hesitation".
The old scholar did not look back for a long time.
Who else would I be?
I am from the literary sage lineage, Qi Jingchun from Lizhu Cave, Cui Chan from Aquarius Continent, Zuo Zuo from Tongye Continent, and Chen Pingan from Sword Qi Great Wall.
Now there is another Liu Shiliu who has returned to the world.
As the breeze blew across his face, the old scholar looked around, laughed, raised his hand to scratch his head, and murmured: "The spring breeze knows my intention and sends my dream back to that year. There are many wrong people in the world, and there are many ways in the world. There is injustice, but don’t try to kill the beauty in my heart."
Liu Shiliu said softly.
The past is gone, and the future is yet to come. Every moment is the past, and every moment is the future. The past is future and the future will be past.
In the end, I got a kick from my husband, and he laughed and scolded me, "Come and come, come and come less." The lineage of literary saints is lucky to have your junior brother, otherwise they would be laughed at as a monk's nest.
Liu Shiliu grinned, and Mr. Xue scratched his head. Fortunately, he still had plenty of hair.
Just take another look at Mr.’s thin figure. If it weren’t for He Dao Tian Di, would he weigh ninety pounds? Liu Shiliu was very sad and wanted to cry again.
As soon as Liu Shiliu raised his head, why didn't he come? Why is there no movement at the canopy? If your heart is unhappy, you can use your fists to meet the enemy and forget about your worries.
The old scholar smiled angrily and said: "Silly big man, I hope you get better. Fighting and killing, you are so unscholarly."
Then the old scholar took Liu Shiliu for a trip The old school returns to the old, no one returns, no one returns, but it is not decadent at all. Everywhere is clean and everything is neat.
I heard that the little girl Nuanshu would come down from the mountain on time and come to the town to clean the school here and the ancestral house in Muping Lane.
I went to the new school run by Chen in Longwei River again, and the sound of reading was audible.
Old scholars especially like to watch the naive children shaking their heads. Some children will know it by heart, and some will recite it stumblingly, but in fact they are all very good.
When the old scholar was visiting the school, he was also looking at the teaching methods of the teachers and the expressions and tones of the masters.
In fact, the real Buddha only speaks ordinary words.
When you are in an officialdom, it is inevitable to use official talk, but you cannot just speak official talk. Remember that all official talk comes from human speech.
When a person is a god on the mountain, he can't just have the fairy aura of Yunfeng Manshou, he must also have some human touch.
I have read too many books by sages. People are different and have different principles. After all, I have to hope that the world will change for the better. Otherwise, it would be unkind to just complain and say weird things and drag others into disappointment and despair. .
After the old scholar left the school, he walked in the Xinghua Lane and said to Liu Shiliu for no reason: "Back then, Xiao Qi accompanied you to travel around the mountains and rivers, and you and Cui Chan visited Baidi City. "
Liu Shiliu nodded and said: "After Senior Brother Cui and the Lord of Baidi City finished the Caiyun Bureau, they wrote a cursive "Back and Back Poster" for Zheng Juzhong, saying, 'Unprecedented and unprecedented. , is among them."
The old scholar smiled: "Is there such a thing?"
Liu Shiliu said: "In the end, Brother Cui lost the game. I’m sorry to say more.”
It is homophonic to Zheng.
Look, among the disciples of Wen Sheng, who doesn’t treat others with sincerity?
Afterwards, the two met a handsome young drunkard on the road. It was Cao Gengxin, the superintendent, and Yuan Zhengding, the county governor, both were descendants of the Zhuguo surname of Dali.
After Cao Duzao had finished drinking, he hung a full wine jug on his waist. He and the wine jug swayed together as they headed to the government office to order some wine.
Sometimes at the wine shop, when Director Cao was too drunk to walk, he would ask an acquaintance of the young waiter or call a kid he knew well on the street to give him a handful of copper coins. As travel expenses, help him take the wine bottle to the Supervisory Yamen, put it on the table, and it will be considered as helping him order the wine.
The old scholar looked at the young man with a smile.
Cao Gengxin also noticed that the short old man wearing a Confucian shirt was sizing him up, but Cao Governor did not say hello and did not want to turn a blind eye, so he burped, then turned sideways and looked sideways. Walking on the street, I smiled and bowed to the old gentleman who had never been masked before.
The old scholar nodded in greeting.
Not everyone who is an official scholar in the world can be so suave, unrestrained and unrestrained, but at the same time, there are definitely a few people who are needed.
As for the county guard Yuan Zhengding, the more the better.
In the eyes of the old scholar, there is no superiority between the two sides. They are both extremely outstanding young people.
After walking around many small town streets, I walked through the slightly lonely Mud Bottle Alley, and then walked back to Qilong Alley. On the steps, a long-lived Taoist priest in a snow-white robe, She had been waiting for him for a long time and saluted the old scholar without saying a word.
The old scholar smiled from ear to ear, and Taoist friend Changshou took them to the New Year's Eve shop. The old scholar rubbed a few pastries, and Liu Shiliu also tasted them, but of course he didn't dare Eat with an open stomach. Shi Rou, the previous shopkeeper, was shocked. Just as he was about to salute "the literary saint who walked out of the hanging statue", the old scholar smiled and waved his hand, saying no, no. Liu Shiliu and the long-lived Taoist friend talked about business, and of course she had no objection. If one or two more golden rains fell on the boundary of Beiyue, the landscape god seats waiting for them in the Lotus Root Blessed Land could spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and serve as promotions. The Lotus Root Blessed Land, which has not been a middle-class blessed land for a long time, will not be inferior to those of the best middle-blessed lands in the world in terms of the number of gods and city gods, or the rank of their golden bodies.
It is rare for money to fall from the sky, but it is even more rare for money to fall into one person's pocket.
With this long-lived Taoist friend sitting on the top of the mountain in Luopo Mountain, there is no way to stop the flow of money.
So before the old scholar and his Taoist friend Changsheng came in, and after they went out, they smiled and thanked her twice.
The first time Changsheng only talked about her responsibilities, but the second time she smiled habitually and accepted it.
After leaving Qilong Alley, the old scholar said: "Since your junior brother is not here, I went to meet your junior brother's best friend. He must be one of the people who protects Chen Ping'an the most."
At the blacksmith shop by the Longxu River, Liu Shiliu met Liu Xianyang, who was sitting on a bamboo chair and taking a nap in the sun.
After Liu Shiliu signed up, Liu Xianyang asked Mr. Wen Sheng to sit down quickly, while bending down to help the old scholar rub his shoulders with his elbows, asking whether the force was light or heavy, and then talked with Liu Shiliu said that senior and I are the same family, the same family.
The old scholar couldn't help but laugh, and he didn't know which family the two parties were from.
Liu Shiliu also found it interesting. He was also unreasonable, and he recognized the young man's origins.
The old scholar squinted his eyes to enjoy the blessing, and told the young man that his strength was just right and he was comfortable. Then the old man imitated the young boy's reading, shook his head leisurely, and said, "The pearls and jade in the world are safe enough, how can it be better than Yang Xian" Xitou soil.
Liu Xianyang was startled and said: "Does sir know the verses we just bought for money in our local county annals? It seems that your knowledge is so great that even the vast world cannot accommodate it. At least Plus the fifth world."
Since he is Chen Ping'an's husband, that counts.He is half the husband of Liu Xianyang.
That's too much flattery.
Liu Shiliu was a tall man, so he could only sit on the steps. He put his fists lightly on his knees and looked straight ahead, pretending he didn't hear anything.
It's just that the husband took it very seriously, "This kind of thing can only be said by one's own family. Don't spread it to others, otherwise it will easily attract jealousy and jealousy."
Liu Xianyang was sitting there. Sitting on a bamboo chair at the side, Dayi said solemnly: "Sir, it is natural that he is so glorious. But as students and disciples, whenever we have the opportunity to say a few words of justice for you, we are bound to say something fair. There are never too many good words!"
Liu Shiliu couldn't help but glance at Liu Xianyang, who had a sincere face. He heard from his husband that he had studied in the Confucian Chen family in Nanbosu Island for many years. Liu Shiliu thought about the scene on the mountain. Wei Shanjun, The sword fairy, the girl in pink skirt Chen Nuanshu, and the little girl in black Zhou Mili all seemed to be well-educated, so he felt relieved. As long as the junior brother didn't imitate Liu Xianyang's speech, everything would be fine.
The old scholar accompanied Liu Xianyang and chatted about some serious book knowledge.
After asking and answering questions, the old scholar was very satisfied. After studying deeply and working hard enough, it really depends on the level of talent, but whether you are sincere or not does not depend on talent.
Afterwards, the old scholar asked Liu Xianyang to ask, and there was another question and answer session.
From beginning to end, Liu Xianyang sat upright.
The old scholar finally said to the young man
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
One sentence, "Xian Yang, I will leave it to you. As a coursework, think carefully about how to harmonize the foundation of one's life and the way to live in the world."
After Liu Xianyang nodded, he stood up and took a few steps back. As a Confucian disciple, he met Mr. Wen Sheng in front of him. Bow with great respect.
The old scholar stood up and nodded with a smile, "I will not follow the example of the later Taoist masters and bow to you in return, because you have not answered my questions yet. From now on, everything you gain will be It won’t be too late for me to return the favor.”
As if after exiting a small world of cultural and religious traditions, Liu Xianyang immediately revealed his true form, straightened his back, and said with a laugh: “Sir, you have disgraced this disciple.”
Liu Shiliu is more understanding than Liu Xianyang.
Sir, this is a big question.
In fact, the tenets of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are similar in high and large places.
For example, a monk once asked in "The Legend of the Lamp": What happens when a scholar does not stay in the land? The master said: Where do you want to settle down and live your life?
The old scholar said: "Let's go."
Liu Shiliu quickly stood up and bowed, "Jun Qian bids farewell, sir."
The old scholar said : "The emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the youngest son. As a teacher, I will inevitably favor the disciples who close the door. Jun Qian, don't think too much. After all, Chen Pingan is different from you. He spends the least time with the husband. I am the most numerous, yet the youngest, too young..."
Here we go.
The old scholar stopped talking, because the old man suddenly realized that even if it was his ownThe closed disciples, it turns out, they are not young anymore.
The young man with clear eyes, who didn’t know how to drink, and who walked through thousands of mountains and rivers wearing straw sandals, has actually passed thirty years and started to move towards the age of forty.
The old scholar sighed, stamped his feet, and disappeared.
Liu Xianyang handed out a handful of melon seeds, and Liu Shiliu sat back on the steps and shook his head.
Liu Xianyang took the initiative to say something, and Liu Shiliu either nodded or spoke a few words concisely and concisely. Finally, the two "members" who met for the first time began to remain silent, each thinking about their own things, but they didn't realize it. Then embarrassed.
Finally Liu Shiliu asked: "When you took a nap earlier, judging from the signs of your sword intention and the changes in your body, were you practicing swordplay in your dream?"
Liu Xianyang nodded and said casually: "There is a sword scripture handed down from ancestors. The method of practicing swords is quite weird. Unfortunately, it is not suitable for Chen Ping'an."
Liu Liuliu said: "I am also friends with Bai. He is good at swordsmanship. If you practice in the future, On the way, if you encounter a big bottleneck in kendo, you can go to him to discuss it. Although Bai Ye has a cold temper, he is actually warm-hearted. When he meets a junior like you, he will be impressed."
Liu Xianyang turned his head, smiling and clasping his fists. Said: "Okay, even if the bottleneck of cultivation is not that big, as long as Mr. Bai is willing to teach, the juniors will be willing to learn!"
Liu Shiliu nodded. The young man is not a small-minded person but a big-hearted person. It doesn't feel like I'm being condescending to give alms at all, which is good.
No wonder I can be friends with my junior brother.
Just like myself and Bai Ye?
Liu Shiliu stood up and said goodbye to Liu Xianyang. He didn't like to talk, especially polite words.
Liu Shiliu asked Wei Shanjun to help him hide his whereabouts and return to Luolu Mountain.
I plan to stay here a little longer, so that when the curtain opens again, he can entertain guests.
After staying in Luolu Mountain for a long time, I became familiar with Wei Bo and Mi Yu from the Sword Qi Great Wall.
Liu Shiliu and Mi Jianxian inquired about some of their junior brothers’ hidden official deeds.
Very pleased.
Liu Shiliu now knows Luolu Mountain quite well.
Although my junior brother often travels far away, he is not in his hometown much and spends more time in foreign lands.
But it is indeed not easy to save such a big family.
In addition to the romantic relationship with Wei Shanjun of Piyun Mountain, Luo Luo Shan's family is now making a lot of money just from the commission from the business at Niujiao Mountain Ferry.
It was a pity that Liu Shiliu could not meet Zhu Lian, nicknamed the old cook.
Furthermore, the teacher said that Pei Qian, the first disciple of his junior brother, would surprise the whole world sooner or later, so Liu Shiliu was quite curious.
Sword Immortal Mi Yu, whose pseudonym is Yu Mi, has not yet offered incense at the Jise Peak Ancestral Master Hall, but in Aquarius Continent, a Jade Pu Realm sword cultivator from the Great Wall of Sword Qi is actually quite important.
It’s just that this sword cultivator is indeed too lazy.
It is said that through the family's ink-turning ferry, people bought many mountain utensils for viewing the mirror, flowers, water and moon, white bowls, picture scrolls, inkstones, rulers and calligraphy, etc., and collected more than 20 pieces for Miyu, and the money was spent like water. , when Zhou Mili talked about this incident with Liu Shiliu, the little girl felt very sorry for Yu Mi. With this attitude, didn't it make it clear that she was going to be a bachelor?
Zheng Dafeng, who guarded the gate, was a pure martial artist and went to the fifth world.
Cen Yuanji was born in the ancestral hall of Luolu Mountain, and was also an unnamed disciple of Zhu Lian. The little girl practiced boxing sincerely and walked back and forth on the road at the top of the mountain every day. pile.
Liu Shiliu saw this and planned to find an opportunity to teach her some boxing principles in accordance with the rules of the mountain.
Yuanbao Yuanlai, sister and brother, are the direct disciples of Lu Baixiang. I heard that they had just left Luopo Mountain not long ago. So now Luolu Mountain is even more deserted.
Cui Wei, the bottleneck of the Jindan realm, Jiang went to become a Qi practitioner, and he was able to do the same thing as a talisman.
Huan Yun, the old master of Luzhou in Beiju, traveled here specifically for Jiang Qu. He once stayed in Luopo Mountain for a year and taught Jiang Qu the art of talismans.
Because Jiang Qu is not a direct descendant of the Luolu Mountain Patriarch Hall, there are not many taboos about preaching. The two parties do not have the name of master and disciple, but they are actually master and disciple.
The other peer, Zhang Jiazhen, was not discouraged because he had no qualifications for cultivation. Instead, he chose to follow the big accountant who never appeared in public, Wei Wenlong from Chunfanzhai in Daixuanshan, to learn the art of financial actuarial calculation. technique.
In the New Year's shop in Qilong Lane, the female ghost Shirou is wearing the remains of a great monk in the Ascension Realm.
As for the long-lived Taoist friend, even more so.
In Caotou Shop, there are three blind Taoist priests: Jia Sheng, Zhao Denggao, Tian Jiu'er, master and apprentice. The little girl Jiu'er's blood is a natural "fuquan". Fortunately, he entered Luopo Mountain, otherwise the end would not be too good, and he could easily become a cash cow on the mountaintop of the Immortal Family.
A black snake migrated from Luopo Mountain to practice in Huimeng Mountain. He was born in Qidun Mountain and is now in the Dragon Gate realm. After transforming into a human form, there is the young man in black, with a pale face, wearing a "crow green" robe, which is made from the shedding of a snake. His pseudonym is Yunzi, his real name is "De Zhang".
As for the "real name" that is equivalent to half a life, Xiao Mili said that it was the "will" of the big white goose, and Yunzi did not dare to disobey it.
Fortunately, in addition to bestowing the name, Cui Dongshan also bestowed an important treasure of the Immortal family suitable for the cultivation of dragons.
As a mountain spirit-water monster whose cultivation is difficult, the reason why Yunzi broke through the realm so quickly has something to do with his own qualifications, but not much. It is still attributed to the snake gallstone presented by Chen Lingjun.
As for the hidden python in Huanghu Mountain, it has long been the bottleneck of the Golden Core Realm, but the python itself has always been unwilling to go across the river.
The great tiger Wei Bo once revealed the secret to Liu Shiliu. It was originally expected to compete with a certain "little loach" for the opportunity to win the water of the five elements, but unfortunately it failed and ultimately failed.Can leave Lizhu Cave Sky.
The big python’s cultivation aptitude is naturally not bad. It has long been able to transform into human form. But he rarely appears, and occasionally appears in his true form. He likes to hibernate at the bottom of the lake and silently open an aquatic cave.
The old owner of Huanghu Mountain who once bought the top of the mountain with gold and copper coins only knew that there was a lake monster sitting on the bottom of his lake because the boa constrictor had never landed as a human body, but he had no idea of its level. , let alone such a fate involving the weather changes in Lizhu Cave, otherwise Huanghu Mountain would never be sold half to Luolu Mountain.
Da Nang is now known as Huang Shi Nu. Her real name was also given by Cui Dongshan. It is listed as "Buddha Song" in the genealogy. She would only occasionally leave the water and go ashore to see Zhou Mili.
Zhou Mili still didn't dare to go down the mountain alone, so she relied on bags of melon seeds to trade with Wei Shanjun, and dumped her by the Yellow Lake mountains and rivers every other month.
The girl in the yellow shirt has those green eyes that are as clear as water in autumn. After she came ashore, her whole body was filled with a looming natural vast water cloud.
There is an old pine tree by the lake. It also has hidden mysteries and a restrained atmosphere, which has not caused any changes in the landscape.
How could the old pine tree stop meditating for a thousand years without moving?
Completely different from Yunzi, who is naturally domineering, the girl in yellow shirt, who is actually a python, likes to be quiet and does not like to move. The boundary of the latter's lair is called Qingnipo, which is located in Huimeng Mountain. It means "a flying kite falls from the poisonous fog, and a giant python passes by with the smell of wind".
The young man in white once took the guardian of the riding dragon lane to the Yellow Lake Mountains together. When they were near the water, he smiled and said that the literary giant once wrote a poem "Speaking of Swords", "Leave it to chop the dragon under the river, don't do it." Trying the Dog on the Street.”
I heard the giant python lurking at the bottom of the lake, its real body with its head lowered and pressed against the mud. As for the native dog behind the boy in white, it was trembling and lying on the ground.
The vassal Huang Ting Kingdom, as well as the old Shenshui Kingdom including Hongzhu Town and Qidun Mountain, were historically the boundaries of ancient Shu. According to legend, the continuous line of Jiao Cave has attracted sword immortals. Between the clouds and the water, the sword light went straight down, killing the dragon.
It’s just that Liu Shiliu had no intention of meeting Yunzi and the girl in yellow shirt, not to disturb their practice, or to be precise, not to disturb their Taoist mind.
After all, it is not a good thing for people in the world to see Liu Shiliu.
Only Xiaomi Li, who carries the golden pole and the green bamboo cane every day and patrols the mountains in the morning and evening without getting tired, has nothing to do even if he spends time with Liu Shiliu every day.
Firstly, the state of the "Big Mute Lake Monster" is too low, and secondly, Zhou Mili's heart is clear and clear, so he is fine.
In addition, there are some figures from the Luoshan Patriarch Hall, but they are not on the mountain either.
After Liu Shiliu became familiar with Luopo Mountain, he realized that the transition from the young mountain owner to his students and disciples, and then to the direct descendants and worshipers of the ancestral hall seemed to be mostly traveling far away.
The atmosphere is very strange.
This is not the case on ordinary mountains.
Martial arts warriors, sword cultivators, Confucian scholars, Taoist Qi practitioners, various mountain spirits, womenghost.
Also add that long-lived Taoist friend with special roots.
But they get along well.
That’s weird.
Today, Zhou Mili took the big man and sat on the top of the mountain, watching with her the silly sister Cen practicing boxing down the mountain. Her figure became smaller and smaller, which made Xiao Mili so happy that she covered her mouth with both hands. Bian, laugh haha.
After Zhou Mili laughed, he didn't have the money to remind her to be more ladylike, so he felt a little sad, so he planned to say some happy words, turned his head, and asked Liu Liu softly: "Half Mountain Senior Brother, let's guess riddles? I know a lot of riddles. Not to mention Sister Nuanshu, even Pei Qian can't compare to me. She can't figure out the answer every time, so she can only stay in a hurry. "It's spinning around."
Liu Shiliu smiled and said, "You ask."
Zhou Mili coughed, "There is a drum in the sky, and it is banging deep in the clouds." , bang bang bang again. Do you know what it is?"
Liu Shiliu said: "Thunder"
Liu Shiliu glanced at the sky and was struck by him before. The ancient god who knocked down the golden body was not from the Lei tribe, but maybe the next one will be.
Zhou Mili gave a thumbs up, and then the little girl began to think deeply.
Oh, I met a master.
Xiaomili, who originally planned to remind the big man, asked again: "There is a grass on the mountain, and there are many pearls. I didn't get it, so you went in vain..."
Liu Shiliu smiled and said: "It must be dewdrops."
There is an example in the book of morning dew, which makes the day miserable.
Fortunately, there are those who are safe and can see the sun again, but the rest are not worthy of being exposed first.
Zhou Mili crossed his hands on his chest, frowned, and thought of a more difficult riddle, "There are many chess pieces, and the chessboard is huge. We can only watch, but we can't play. Let me ask you, So what is the chess piece?"
Liu Shiliu smiled and shook his head.
He once traveled far and wide alone, saw with his own eyes the ceremonial and sacred images, and picked up those "chess pieces" to block those ancient existences.
Zhou Mili shook his head and said with a smile: "Is it difficult or not? It doesn't matter if you don't know. As long as you look up at night, you will know the answer."
Then the little girl Seeing that the big man seemed a little lonely, she said something about small stone tablets, piece by piece, erected in two rows at the door. She opened her mouth slightly and smiled.
Liu Shiliu smiled and rubbed the little girl's head: "I know."
"He is tall and close to the sky. I am so envious."
Xiaomi Li held her cheeks and looked into the distance, feeling a little sad, but really sad, "Brother Half Mountain Master, let me tell you a secret. I actually don't like mountain patrols that much, but I am on the mountain every day. , Just eating melon seeds has nothing to do, and it won’t help. You said I’m not worried about people? So I run very fast every time I patrol the mountains. I’m just being lazy.”
Liu Shi. Liu nodded, "I will keep it a secret for you."
Zhou Mili came closer and whispered: "Then let me tell you a big secret. When the good mountain master and I were walking together in Luzhou, Beiju..."
The little girl put down the green bamboo stick and the golden pole first. At his feet, he stood up and said, "I'm standing in a big backpack and knocking Master Pei Qian on the head hard. When Mr. Chen said that a piece of snow is worth a piece of chestnut, I didn't even blink. "
Liu Shiliu smiled and said: "Then you are really awesome. "
Zhou Mili, who was originally in high spirits, suddenly looked sad, "He taught me all those riddles. If he doesn't come home, I will forget about him. ”
