Chapter 836 The God of Fire Asks for Fire

Chen Ping'an said that he wanted to go out. He wanted to go to the Fire Temple to find Aunt Feng and ask her to help call people. He asked the old coachman three questions. He might also go to the Hubu Yamen to meet a friend. Ning Yao nodded, took out a few romance novels about martial arts grievances, picked out one of them, and turned to the fold. She could really read it with gusto. Chen Pingan glanced at the content, glanced over it, and saw that At the end of the book page, it is written that the protagonist was chased by his enemies on a stormy night. He took refuge and strayed into a mountain temple. He met a person, sitting in the main hall, with a green robe and beautiful beard, red and phoenix eyes, looking at the Spring and Autumn Period under the lamp... Chen Pingan said with a smile. , Okay, I bet that there will be another adventure. As long as one of the chasing people can walk out of the temple with all their hair and tail intact, I will lose. Ning Yao squinted at Chen Ping'an and only said two words "reward" and "shut up".

Chen Ping'an went to the inn counter. As a result, even the old shopkeeper, who was born and raised in Dali Capital City, could not give the specific location of the Fire Temple, only a general direction. The old shopkeeper was a little surprised that Chen Pingan, a foreigner from Jianghu, came to the capital and instead of going to the more famous Taoist temple, he wanted to find a fire temple. In the capital city of Dali, the Ancestral Temple of the Song Dynasty, the Confucian Temple dedicated to Confucian sages, and the Imperial Temple dedicated to the monarchs of all dynasties are recognized as the three major temples, but ordinary people are not allowed to go there. But in addition, only the temple fairs at the Duchenghuang Temple and the Dudi Temple are mentioned. , are all very lively.

Chen Ping'an found the only Fire Temple in the capital. The temple gatekeeper, the old woman Zhu, was an ordinary person. She was old, gray-haired, and senile, but she recognized the piece of gold awarded by the Ministry of Punishment to the gods on the mountain. When I heard that the other party was coming to see Aunt Feng, the old woman followed the rules and recorded the name in the book and let him go. When writing the name of the visitor, the old woman smiled and said, Master Immortal has a very good one. Good name. Chen Pingan smiled and said it was all given by his parents. The old woman nodded and told the young man some taboos and rules in the Fire Temple. Then she pointed the way and said that Aunt Feng was in the flower shed.

Chen Pingan followed the route and met Aunt Feng. She was sitting lazily on the stone steps of the flower shed. She had been drinking in the early morning, and she seemed to be so tipsy all year round. In addition to still tying her black hair with the colorful knot, she wore a new outfit today, a pink rosy silk skirt with red ribbons, and some words used to describe goddesses in strange and magical novels, which were put on her body. The most beautiful thing is the flowing cloud posture and the moon spirit. When she saw Chen Ping'an, Aunt Feng just raised the wine bottle in her hand and said hello. She straightened her waist slightly and straightened up her brows and eyes. The woman was so good-looking, so natural and charming. It's troublesome, not to mention that Chen Ping'an's family is so jealous.

Chen Pingan looked at Aunt Feng and felt dazed for a moment because he remembered that there used to be an old man smoking dry cigarettes in the backyard of the Yang family medicine shop all year round.

Chen Ping'an did not follow Aunt Feng's example and sat on the steps, sitting on a stone bench next to the flower shed. Aunt Feng asked with a smile: "Do you want to drink? The most pure and authentic Baihua Liquor, every jar The age of wine is not young anymore. Those goddesses of flowers are still women after all.Careful, well stored and stored, no wine leaked. My trip to the blessed land that year could not be in vain and I searched a lot. ”

Chen Pingan smiled and nodded, and Aunt Feng threw out a jar of Baihua Brewing. Chen Pingan took the jar, as if he remembered something, twisted his wrist, and took out two pots of Qingshenshan brewed in his own shop. He threw a bottle of wine to Aunt Feng as a return gift and explained: "Aunt Feng has a taste and has opened a small wine shop in partnership with others, and the sales are good. ”

Aunt Feng took the wine bottle, put it to her ear, shook it, and smiled strangely. It’s just this wine, no matter the age or taste, do you have the nerve to give it away?

Aunt Feng threw another jar of wine to Chen Ping'an and joked: "If you want to keep my pot of Baihua Brewing, just say it, and ask Aunt Feng for an extra jar. What's the point of being embarrassed?" Yes, I really lost my money. ”

Chen Ping’an didn’t take it seriously. Since Aunt Feng is Mr. Qi’s friend, she is her elder. If an elder says something to her, don’t worry whether it’s right or not, just listen.

Chen Pingan took out a wine bowl, opened the red paper and mud seal of the wine jar, and poured a bowl of wine. The red paper and yellow mud sealing were both unusual, especially the latter, which had a strange soil quality. Chen Pingan picked up some soil with his fingers and twisted it gently. In fact, the people at the foot of the mountain only knew the term "jinshishou", but they didn't know that soil also had the term "year". Chen Pingan asked curiously: "Aunt Feng, these soils are from the Blessed Land of Hundred Flowers. Ten thousand years of soil? For such an expensive drink and its age, could it be that it was paid as tribute to someone in the early years? "

Aunt Feng nodded, "You have a good eye, everything you look at is money. And you guessed it right, in the early years, Baihua Brewing, which was sealed with ten thousand years of soil, would be divided into three parts every hundred years and paid tribute to the three parties respectively. In addition to the Sixth Palace of Fengdu Ghost Mansion, there is also the one who is in charge of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land on the earth and all the earthly immortals. Qingjun of Fangzhu Mountain, who has a Bo family background, is not the old man in the backyard of the Yang family medicine shop. Moreover, this gentleman has no connection with the old heaven, but he is actually very remarkable. The Fangzhu Mountain that Qingjun ruled in the early years was originally a place of command higher than the Five Mountains of Haoran. The Mansion is responsible for eradicating the death register and the name of the immortal, which is finally recorded in the "Record of Immortality" with a high-grade blue and purple seal, or the "Record of Immortality" with a medium-grade yellow urn and white slips, and "Please engrave the name of the immortal" in Fangzhu Mountain. Qing Jun is like signing an ultimatum. In short, there is an extremely complicated set of rules, which is very similar to the officialdom of later generations... Forget it, talking about this is too boring. It is an old almanac that has already been turned over. It is useless to talk more. Anyway, if you really want to trace the origin, it can be regarded as some attempts by Lisheng to formulate etiquette in the early years. Whether it is a detour, a long detour, or a road trip, in short it is... quite difficult. Anyway, if you are really interested in these old events, you can ask your husband. The old scholar read a lot of miscellaneous books. "

Chen Ping'an asked tentatively: "There is a sect in Aai'aizhou called Jiudushan. The Ancestral Master Hall has a secret direct descendant named Wei Bianlang, also known as Baoji Cheng, who is known as Baoji Cheng. In order to be listed as a green citizen, does it have any inheritance relationship with Fangzhu Mountain? ”

Retreat from the summer heatOne of the foreign sword cultivators of the official lineage, Deng Liang, is the master of the Suran Peak of Jiudu Mountain in Aaizhou, and now he has become the chief priest of the Ancestral Hall of Feisheng City.

Aunt Feng sneered and said: "It's just a little bit of glory. Little Jiudu Mountain can't be compared with that Fangzhu Mountain. It's just the founder of Jiudu Mountain. By chance, he got part of the Broken Mountain. I barely inherited some Taoyun Immortal Veins."

As for the three forces, Aunt Feng seems to have missed one, so Chen Ping'an won't go into details. If Aunt Feng doesn't say anything, there must be some unknown taboos here. .

And in these words, Aunt Feng’s respect for the ceremonial saint clearly comes from the bottom of her heart.

Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Dare you ask Aunt Feng, Mr. Sanshanjiuhou?"

Aunt Feng shook her head, and Chen Pingan stopped asking any more questions. , in the end, after only drinking a bowl of Baihua Brew, I found that it was beneficial to the soul. It was beyond expectation. In the small world of the human body, those similar to the Chujun Shantou Qi Mansion that had not yet opened up the territory, as well as many white-painted mountains and rivers with few paintings, had been in drought for a long time. Like rain, the strands gather together like a curtain of rain, and spiritual energy falls like rain. He is a real Jade Purity monk. If he were an Earth Immortal, wouldn't there be a heavy rain of spiritual energy falling to the ground? As for the monks in the lower five realms, it is estimated that after drinking such a bowl of wine, they will be "drunk" by Peiran's spiritual energy. Therefore, Chen Ping'an doesn't plan to continue drinking. He only needs to practice his own practice step by step. Of course, these kinds of foreign objects from the immortal family that help accumulate spiritual energy are of great use, but in fact they are of little significance. Go back and give the two jars of wine to Zhang Jiazhen and Jiang respectively. Especially Zhang Jiazhen, the little accountant who worked for Wei Wenlong, and the former boy of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, now have white hair because they cannot practice.

In front of Aunt Feng, he directly put away the wine jar and wine bowl, not even letting go of the yellow mud crumbs on the table. Then Chen Pingan said: "Can Aunt Feng help me with that?" The coachman said hello and asked him to come here."

Aunt Feng said with a smile: "Here he comes."

The old man who drove the carriage for Dong Hu and the Queen Mother was in Hua. Falling to the ground with a crash outside the shed, Aunt Feng rolled her eyes charmingly and raised her hand to wave away the dust.

The old coachman crossed his arms across his chest and stood there, not even looking at Chen Ping'an. This little bastard is just relying on a Taoist monk who is an Ascension Realm sword cultivator. Let's see what you can do. .

The old man said angrily: "If you fart, hurry up."

Chen Ping'an didn't bother to care about this old guy's chat skills. Did he really think he was Gu Qingsong or Liu Chicheng? She just got straight to the point and asked: "Is the Empress Dowager Lu Jiang, whose alias is Nanzhan, from the Lu family of the Yin and Yang family in China?"

Aunt Feng looked a little surprised and took a sip of wine. Chen Ping'an How did you know this inside story? This is a deeply hidden line. The late Emperor Dali fell into the trap back then and almost became a puppet. It was not without reason that Nan Hao, or Lu Jiang, was demoted to Changchun Palace by the late emperor. The South Hairpin is actually the South Hairpin of Yuzhang County. It is just that with the string of spiritual beads, it can remember the memories of previous lives. Otherwise, the late Emperor DaliLu Jiang would definitely not survive the old relationship between husband and wife due to his ambitious nature. In the history books, there is only a record of the death of Empress Dali due to illness.

The old coachman said bluntly: "I don't know, change it."

Aunt Feng nodded gently. The old coachman really didn't know about this. He just had the strength to not use his brain.

The old master said angrily: "Aunt Feng, why are you flirting with him? You and I are our own family, and there must be a limit to how far we can turn our elbows!"

Chen Pingan He continued to ask: "Who first taught the secret method of firing Lizhu Cave Tianbenming porcelain?"

The old coachman hesitated for a moment and said dullly: "It was the joint efforts of Mr. Yang Laoer and Sanshan Jiuhou. "

Chen Ping'an took a deep breath and asked slowly: "Master Yao of Longyao, is he a Buddhist?"

The old coachman glanced at Aunt Feng. , as if he was complaining that none of the questions she had helped to come up with before were right, causing all of his prepared drafts to go to waste.

Aunt Feng turned a blind eye, just drinking and watching the fun.

The old coachman nodded.

Chen Pingan remained silent.

When I was young, I used to kowtow to the three Bodhisattva statues in the tomb of the gods. There was a child who went up mountains and rivers and broke through the poor quality straw sandals he had knitted, one pair after another. At that time, he felt that Bodhisattvas were easy to find, but herbs on the mountains were hard to find.

Master Yao. Medicine Buddha.

East Aquarius Island. The leader of Dongfang Jingliuli World.

Aunt Feng raised her head and took a sip of wine, and then said to Chen Ping'an from her heart: "I advised Qi Jingchun back then. In fact, it is right for a gentleman not to save you. It doesn't matter if you leave. I just said Old Man Yao will never let it go, otherwise there is no need for him to take this trip to Lizhu Cave, and he will definitely return to Haoran from the Western Buddhist Kingdom

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

But Qi Jingchun still didn’t agree, but in the end he didn’t give any reason.”

The plaque left by the Confucian saint in the archway is Qi Jingchun’s silent answer, and he did his part.

Chen Pingan lowered his head and looked at the cloth shoes. After raising his head, he asked the last question, "Who was I in my previous life?"

The old coachman shook his head, "I don't know, I'll change it again." "One."

Aunt Feng smiled and said, "Forget it, let me answer it for you. Chen Ping'an, don't think too much. You are not someone. At least I am sure that my previous life was nothing special." The monk at the top of the mountain is not an expert in Buddhism or Taoism. Because I was also curious back then, so I went to the Yang Family Pharmacy. The old man once gave a definite answer. There may be nothing surprising in your previous life, so you My parents and I are all very ordinary people, and there is nothing to be said about it. At that time, it was rare for Old Man Yang to take the initiative to say that you were just a weakling with a tough life."

Chen Ping'an. Stretched a little and breathed a sigh of relief. Then you really don’t have to worry about anything anymore.

The old coachman didn’t want to stay here for a long time, so he wanted to take another look at that one.The man in green shirt felt bad.

Chen Pingan suddenly narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Aunt Feng is willing to help matchmaking and be a middleman for us, which actually explains a lot of things, so I will remind you one last thing, don't mess with me in the future. "

Aunt Feng smiled knowingly, "Listen, this is what a smart person should say, old coachman, you should learn more from it in the future."

The old coachman was in a dilemma, but he wanted to say something cruel, but when he thought of Ning Yao in the capital, he couldn't hold it back, so he turned around and spat. On the ground, Chen Ping'an raised his eyebrows, and the Feng family's mother-in-law also looked displeased. The old coachman rubbed the toe of his shoe to wipe it clean, then jumped up, and his figure instantly disappeared without a trace.

Aunt Feng glanced at the young man, looking slightly tired, which is human nature.

Then she saw Chen Ping'an take out the wine bowl again, a pot of Qingshenshan wine, poured a bowl of wine, shook it, and began to drink by himself. He was young and had a good mind. Not only calm, but also transparent.

Chen Ping'an raised the wine bowl and said with a smile: "Aunt Feng, thank you."

Aunt Feng raised the wine bottle in her hand and each drank.

Chen Pingan asked a question that he had been curious about for many years, but it was not a big deal, just out of curiosity, "Aunt Feng, do you know that the engraving on the back of a statue is like a little poem, it is Who carved it? Li Liu, or Ma Kuxuan?"

Li Liu was the former co-owner of Jianghu. As one of the five supreme gods in ancient times, even the Lushuikeng was her summer resort. One, and the real responsibility of the Godhead lies in the long river of time. The remains of all the ancient gods turned into stars in the sky, or their golden bodies dissipated and merged into time, but in fact they all rested forever in the long river of time.

Chen Ping'an couldn't tell whose handwriting it was based on the handwriting alone, but Li Liu and Ma Kuxuan were the most likely.

Aunt Feng shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't care, I'm not curious."

Chen Pingan asked: "Aunt Feng said before that someone wanted to see me, it was Yang from the pharmacy in my hometown. Shopkeeper? Or... General Su, the hunting envoy?"

The former is what Liu Xianyang said. Shopkeeper Yang died early in life and after his death, he worked as a night wandering god in the capital. After entering the officialdom of Shanshui, he was able to continue to protect the family's children with his virtue. As for Su Gaoshan, it was Chen Ping'an's guess that it was very likely that he would become a heroic spirit on the battlefield after his death. Dali helped arrange an escape route, such as serving as the god of the martial arts temple in the capital, and it was natural for Su Gaoshan to in turn maintain the country's military fortunes.

Furthermore, Su Gaoshan was born in the Han tribe. He relied on his military exploits along the way and served as a hunting envoy during his lifetime. He was already a military official at the highest level, but he was not one of those powerful nobles of the Jia tribe. Once the general died and lost his backbone, it would be very difficult. It's easy for people to get cold tea, and the family is often left in the cold.

Aunt Feng smiled and said: "It's Shopkeeper Yang. After Su Gaoshan died, the last part of his life was to travel around the world at night as a ghost, personally escorting his ghost soldiers back to their hometown. When Su Gaoshan andAfter the last Paoze said goodbye, his soul dissipated. The Dali court naturally wanted to retain him, but Su Gaoshan himself did not agree and only said that his children and grandchildren would be blessed by themselves. "

When Chen Ping'an heard this, he was speechless for a long time. He just took a sip of wine and silently made up his mind that he would need to pay more attention to the Su family in the future and quietly protect it for at least a hundred years.

Aunt Feng laughed, twirled her fingers, and collected a wisp of breeze, "Shopkeeper Yang can't come, so I asked you to send a message that when you return to your hometown, remember to go to the backyard of his medicine shop. ”

Chen Pingan nodded and said, “Aunt Feng, please help me say thank you to Shopkeeper Yang.” "

After drinking a bottle of wine, Chen Ping'an stood up and left, "I won't bother Aunt Feng any more. "

Aunt Feng nodded, and then asked: "Don't you want to visit the Fire Temple? "

Chen Ping'an shook his head.

The Five Elements School calls the fortune of the emperor's fortune that thrives on fire virtue, called fire virtue. It's just that the Great Li Dynasty is not like this, so there is only one in the capital. Fire Temple.

Like the Dayuan Dynasty in Luzhou, Beiju, it was Shuide Liguo.

Aunt Feng shook the wine pot and said, "Then I won't give it away. ”

Chen Pingan returned along the original road, and when he arrived at the entrance of the Fire Temple, he met the old woman from Miao Zhu who also served as the concierge. He stopped and chatted with the old woman for a few words before Chen Pingan left. .

On the stone terrace of the flower shed, Aunt Feng continued to drink alone.

Bing Yinghuo, playing with the stars, cooking the four mountains, Wei Wei's fire virtue, and hundreds of gods looking up to them. /p>

After Chen Pingan walked out of the Fire Temple, he looked back on the deserted street.

What is spiritual practice?

What is seeking Buddha? The God of Fire asked for fire.

After that, Chen Ping'an went to the Hubu Yamen Office and did not go to Yichi Lane to find Guan Yiran. Instead, he chose a more upright way to reminisce with his friends.

As for the gentleman, he was not idle either.

In Dali Capital, there was a poor old gentleman wearing a Confucian shirt. He first arrived at the Scripture Translation Bureau in the capital and clasped his hands with the monks to help with the translation. After reading the scriptures, he went to Chongxu Bureau, and he would be punished by the Taoist sect, as if he didn't care about his status as a Confucian scholar.

It's just that he is destined to be unaccounted for. If the literary sage is like this, who would have any objection? Who else can I complain to, saying that there is a scholar who behaves in a manner that is inappropriate to etiquette? Should I go to the Most Holy Master, or the Lisheng Sage, the Lesser Sage?

The ban on Shanshui Dibao in the world has gradually been lifted. /p>

Countless news came pouring in, making all the cultivators in the world feel like a drunkard who had been unable to drink for many years. He could only drink to his heart's content and get drunk.

Among the series of shocking events, there is of course the meeting at the Chinese Confucian Temple and Haoran's attack on the barbarians.

There is also the restoration of the Confucian Temple's throne by the Literary Saint.

The Five Worlds were officially named the Five Colors World.

During this period, there was another news that was not trivial. It was that the last hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall was young.Chen Shiyi of Ten People.

It turned out to be that Aquarius continent person, but it seemed that most of the Shanshui Di newspapers had a tacit understanding. About this person, they were mentioned in one sentence. More details were not mentioned at all, only one or two. The newspapers of the Immortal Mansion with the prefix Zuozong, such as the Mountain and Sea Sect of the Middle Earth Divine Continent, did not follow the rules and talked more. They named the official by name. However, the newspapers stopped soon after the publication was announced. , it should be some kind of reminder from the academy. But a thoughtful person, relying on these two newspapers, still got a few unforgettable "tattletales". For example, after this person returned home from the Great Wall of Sword Qi, he was a martial artist at the top of the mountain and a sword cultivator at the Nascent Soul realm in the past. , quickly broke through each realm and became a martial artist in the ultimate realm and a swordsman in the Yupu realm.

Then there is this person’s Taoist companion, the number one person in the colorful world, the Ascension Realm Sword Cultivator, Ning Yao.

While I was stunned, I wondered if this person was very lucky? Why is it that this guy seems to have taken advantage of all the huge advantages?

As for the Nanshou minister and the Northern Yinguan, what do you say?

No matter what, this young man from Aquarius Island named Chen can be said to be the best person in the world.

In an official residence of the Ministry of Revenue, Guan Yiran was flipping through several river memorials submitted to the Ministry of Revenue.

This descendant of the Guan family in Yunzai County, Yizhou, has not served as an official in the official department, which is almost one-third of an acre of his own land. In this household department, the official rank is not high. In the past, Among the three Dadu supervisors, Guan Yiran was the one with the best background, but now he had the lowest official position, just the chief officer of the first department of the Ministry of Husbandry. You must know that Guan Yiran not only bears the surname of Shangzhu Kingdom, but he is also a real monk who accompanied the army at Dali Border Pass. He has been fighting among the dead for many years. He also followed General Su Gaoshan all the way to the south and made great achievements in battle.

Guan Yiran raised his head, and there was a man in a blue shirt with sleeves in his hands at the door of the house. He smiled and said jokingly: "General Guan, you are so busy being an official that you have slacked off in your practice. If this happens in On the battlefield?"

Guan Yiran immediately closed the memorial, took a book from the desk, put it on the memorial, stood up with a big smile and said, "Hey, isn't this our accounting office? "Rare guests, rare guests."

Guan Yiran dragged his chair around the desk with one hand, and then moved the only free chair for guests with his toes, so that the two chairs faced each other. He smiled brightly and said: "There is nothing I can do. The official hat is small, and the place is small, so I can only treat the guests poorly. It is not like the room of our minister, which is spacious, and you don't need to open the window to ventilate even if you fart."

Chen Ping'an crossed the threshold and asked with a smile: "Coming here to see you, will it delay my official business?"

Guan Yiran smiled and cursed: "I've already come, but I can still drive you away. ?”

Besides, there is nothing inappropriate. My great-grandpa explained clearly what your Majesty’s character is back then. Don’t worry about such trivial matters.

Chen Pingan sat down in no hurry, took out an inkstone from his sleeve and threw it to Guan Yiran, "A small gift, not a sign of respect."

While explaining that this was Tong Yiran, Yezhou Jiang's Yunku blessed land, an old pit in Yanshan MountainThe specialty is called Shuihangkeng.

What Shuipangkeng is, is actually Chen Ping’an’s temporary name.

I really don’t believe that Guan Yiran, a native of Aquarius Continent, can know the blessed land of Yun Cave very well.

However, I heard that the Dali imperial court a few years ago set up an inkstone affairs department in this Hubu Yamen, which was responsible for searching for mountains and collecting fine stones. In addition to making inkstones for the palace, The household department can also sell part of the inkstones by itself, which can kill two birds with one stone and help the yamen earn some extra money.

But the Chen family of Longwei River,

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

There are several inkstones that are private property of the family, that is the real Like mountains of gold and silver, they are sold as far as mountains and mountains in a continent.

Dong Shuijing took a share of the pie and was responsible for helping sell it to Luzhou in Beiju. He would never touch salt, iron or the like. Dong Shuijing only provided for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of dignitaries and ordinary people. Put thought into things.

Da Lihu Department is the worst among the six yamen of the imperial court. It seems that it is scolded every day. After the Ministry of War is scolded, the Ministry of Rites is scolded, and the Ministry of Rites is scolded by the Department of Finishing...

According to the Da Li Hu Department, According to the officialdom of Li, the Ministry of War is the grandfather's yamen, and whoever is arrested will be scolded. The Ministry of Rites is the father, the Ministry of Work is the son, and the only one who manages money is the grandson. Anyone can spit on him.

Guan Yiran took the square inkstone without being polite, weighed it, rubbed it with his thumb, and found that the stone was fine. Then he picked it up, holding the small inkstone to his ear with five fingers of one hand, and holding the inkstone to his ear with the other hand. When he taps with his fingers, there is what the book calls the sound of gold and jade vibration. Guan Yiran took another breath and looked at the water mist on the surface of the inkstone, which looked like clouds formed by the breath. There were dots of purple gold and golden halos. Then he lightly smeared it with his fingernail. After a closer look, Guan Yiran was dotted with dots. Head, okay, it is indeed a common thing, it is worth some money, but with my salary, I am destined to not be able to afford it.

Chen Ping'an's eyelids trembled slightly when he saw them. These rich and powerful princes and grandsons who like to be finicky are really not easy to fool.

To accept a gift so carelessly and show off, why not wait until the guest leaves before showing off your expertise.

Guan Yiran gently placed the square inkstone on the table and asked with a smile: "The pen, ink, paper and inkstone are the four treasures of the study. Now that you have the inkstone, you can't help me create a big family?"

Chen Pingan sat on the chair and said with a smile: "I'm probably still visiting relatives. What's the rush?"

Then Chen Pingan asked: "Can't we drink bars here?"< /p>

Guan Yiran nodded, "The control is strict, you can't drink. If you are caught, the fine is a small matter, but the record is a big matter."

Chen Ping'an then patted his waist. He took out the Ministry of Justice waist badge, twisted his wrist, and took out the wine bottle, "What a coincidence, you can't control me."

A hurried assistant brought an official document, and the door opened, still gently. There was a knock on the door, and Guan Yiran said: "Come in."

The Yamen assistant glanced at the man in green shirt, Guan Yiran stood up and walked over, took the official document, turned his back to Chen Pingan, and turned over the , put it in his sleeve, nodded and said: "I still need to treat guests here for a while, I will come back to you."

The assistant nodded and left, coming and going in a hurry.

After that, two more subordinates came over to discuss the matter, and Guan Yiran both said they would discuss it later.

Guan Yiran and Chen Pingan were sitting on a chair each, with their legs crossed, looking very casual.

Chen Pingan joked: "I really have no time to spare."

Guan Yiran glanced at the wine bottle in Chen Pingan's hand. He was so greedy that the wine worms in his stomach were almost ready. Rebellious, people who like to drink either don't drink or don't want to drink. The last thing they want to do is see others drinking, and they are empty-handed. They said helplessly: "When I just retired from the border army, I worked as an errand in this yamen. I was confused and was in a hurry every day. "

Chen Ping'an laughed casually: "The sword and the pen, the sword and the pen, are not actually holding the sword."

Guan Yiran shook his head, "In terms of implementation, there is a difference between the two. "It's far away."

After some chat, a colleague from the government office came to see the official robes. He was of the same rank as Guan Yiruan. This person started shouting from the door: "Di. This is a newspaper from the Shanhai Sect of the Middle-earth Divine Continent! This is what I got from Ma Shilang. Come and take a look, I’m overwhelmed with all the news.”

The young official saw the man in blue shirt sitting and drinking. He was stunned and didn't care. He just thought he was the son of a wealthy man with a background in the frontier army. The threshold for Guan Yiran's friends would not be low, not just because of his family background. , but about character, so when the young official looked at the man, he not only immediately put away his legs, but also took the initiative to smile and nod with himself. He didn't think it was too strange, so he smiled and nodded with the man in return.

Guan Yiran was obviously very familiar with this person, and he said casually: "There is no place for you to sit."

The man gently threw the Shanshui Di newspaper to Guan Yi Ran, just sitting on the threshold casually, "Didn't you say that you had a friend in the world in the early years? This Chen Ping'an is the other Chen Ping'an? That should be the case. How awesome, Yi Ran, you actually drank with him, and he was criticized by you again I was so drunk that I was circling around the table. This Chen Jianxian came to the capital as a guest. You helped me to have a drink. I can't beat him, but I can't drink from him?"

Chen Peace is silent. When it comes to being at the wine table, apart from Liu Jinglong, I really don’t shy away from anyone.

After all, the Hubu Yamen is not a well-informed Ministry of Rites and Punishments. Moreover, the six divisions of work are clear. Maybe except for the Lord Shangshu, who is known as the "local official" in the Ministry of Revenue, the other chief officials may not know the inside story of the previous turmoil near Yichi Lane.

However, the middle-level officials in the six yamen in the capital are indeed notorious for their "low status" and power. Once he is sent to another place as an official, if he can be transferred back to the capital, his future will be bright.

Guan Yiran coughed and reminded this guy to speak less.

Chen Pingan is smiling.

Anyway, now that the matter has come to this, Guan Yiran has no guilt at all, and with a clear conscience on his face, he says to his colleague: "It doesn't count, I will occasionally fight with him at the wine table. . If there is a chance next time, if he comes to the capital and is not in a hurry, he will definitely ask you out.Start drinking.

The young official nodded, then turned to look at the man in green shirt and asked: "Yi Ran, who is this?"

Chen Ping'an was already sitting upright and took the initiative to say with a smile: "I am Lord Guan's younger brother in Jianghu. I am not from the capital. I have just arrived in the capital, so I immediately rushed over to worship at the top of the mountain."

Guan Yiran waved his hands and complained: "What little brother, this is an ugly thing to say. We are all good brothers who fell in love with each other at first sight." "

The young official wiped his face and said, "Yi Ran, look, this guy's Taoist companion on the mountain is Ning Yao from Feisheng City, Ning Yao! I’m so envious of you, you can do it, you’re so arrogant! "

Then he looked at the guest and said with a smile: "Brother, right? "

Chen Pingan nodded and smiled: "I envy you, you must envy me.

Guan Yiran waved his hand and said, "It's just a landscape newspaper. If there's anything worth making a fuss about, hurry up and go." "

Guan Yiran introduced Chen Ping'an with his heartfelt voice: "This guy is one of the more than a dozen chief officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Although he is young, he is actually in charge of everything including Hongzhou. Several large northern states, not far from your hometown of Longzhou, currently hold all the fish scale albums in the northern stalls. And just like you, they all come from the market. "

Chen Pingan nodded lightly, "I can see it. "

It is a veritable "see", because this young official has several red lanterns hung up by the gods of various mountains and rivers behind him, and he is full of elegance.

Guan Yiran He asked, "If you weren't busy, I would really like to help you two have a drink at the Changpu River later. How about that? Do you want to give me this face?" "

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "Of course no problem. But the banquet will be held in half a month. "

Guan Yiran didn't ask why, just blinked and said, "When the time comes, when the flowers are in front of the moon and the moon is under the moon, the three of us will drink this wine?" Accountant Chen, do you have the courage? ”

Chen Ping’an said categorically: “I’m not good at drinking shitty flower wine.” "

The young official didn't know that the two people were speaking from the bottom of their hearts, so he took off his official hat, put his palms on his bun, and said sadly: "I've finished all the things at hand for now, I'm not busy. Ah, I'm not allowed to take a few breaths. I'm so busy with paperwork, and if I keep working all night long like this, maybe I won't be treated as an outsider when I go to the Bible Translation Bureau in the future. ”

Soon after that, another official sent an official document. The young official with a strong literary style also took the official document back to his residence, said goodbye and left. Chen Pingan knew that he would be very busy when he was on duty at the Great Lihu Department. , but I really didn’t expect that Guan Yiran would be so busy, so I left a jar of Baihua Liquor for Guan Yiran. At worst, I would ask Aunt Feng for more jars later. Guan Yiran was not polite and just left Chen. Safely arrived at the door of the house.

Chen Pingan walked all the way back to the inn, and at the entrance of the alley, the young man Zhao Duanming waved: "Mr. Chen, I have something to do with you. ”

Chen Pingan nodded lightly, held his sleeves with his hands, and walked over leisurely. When he stepped into the alley,He smiled and said: "Hey, it's so awesome. There are actually three small worlds overlapping each other, and the interlocking sword talismans are all used. You are really rich."

Then Chen Ping'an laughed dumbly, right? In order to regain their position, these eleven people are deliberately planning to deal with themselves today, just like they were dealing with Wu Shuangjiang on the night boat?

Chen Pingan was currently in the ruins of the Immortal Mansion owned by Formation Master Han Zhoujin. It was probably the Immortal Inn that the female ghost Gaiyan had previously opened. He felt that it was because they had lost the first move that they I lost, so I’m not convinced. Chen Ping'an was standing on a stone beam, with white clouds rolling like the sea under his feet, and a snow-white waterfall pouring down next to him. At the end of one end of the stone beam, stood the "Sword Immortal" who had appeared on Yu Yu's shoulders, still looking like a young man. , just a little taller, wearing a Taoist crown, a sword, red clothes, and beads on the seams.

Chen Ping'an looked around, "You guys, don't remember to hit, right?"

The young swordsman swept across with his sword, knocking out the "Chen Pingan" who had no power to fight back. "Peace" was split into...a talisman.

It seemed that Chen Pingan had not entered the alley at all.

In a hidden area outside the alley, the young monk clasped his hands together and said, "Buddha bless you, Chen Jianxian is looking for someone else. I'm going to find the merit box."

Then there was someone behind him. He smiled and said: "Okay, I'll find someone else."

On the rooftop elsewhere, You Cun scratched his head, because Mr. Chen was sitting next to him. Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "With Yuan Huajing and Song Xu Tell me, give me some sword-locking talismans later, and the debt will be settled."

The young man looked shy and nodded. He had said before that he would definitely not be able to regain his position. Of course, if a fight really breaks out, the young man will not hold back his strength, and he has never beaten Mr. Chen anyway.

In the alley, the three of them, including Han Zhoujin, each removed the carefully arranged layers of space, feeling a little helpless.

Then everyone was stunned. They saw a figure in green shirt appearing near the talisman that was floating on the ground. Mr. Chen, who was beside the young man, turned into a talisman and turned into a rainbow. The light was put into the man's sleeve.

"If you encounter an insidious bastard like Fei Ran or Shou Chen on the battlefield, you will line up one by one to have your head killed."

Chen Ping An smiled and said: "It won't happen again."
