Sword comes

Chapter 428 It's time for autumn hunting, please enter the urn

The autumn wind is blowing and the crab roe is fat. Now is the best time to eat golden crabs in Chishui City. When it is time to eat, the unique fragrance is wafting all over the city.

There will even be some old gluttons who came all the way from the Zhuying Dynasty to drink and drink in various well-connected Linshui mansions and restaurants. However, Shihao Country, which is the closest to Shujian Lake, has few people coming this year. This is a blessing, after all, life is almost gone.

The Shujian Lake Island Master League will be held in about ten days. At that time, more than a hundred island masters will board the Palace Willow Island where the master has not been there for many years, and elect a king of the rivers and lakes.

Liu Zhimao, True Lord Jiejiang of Qingxia Island, is naturally the candidate that everyone expects.

But this is the Shujian Lake, and it was only after the happy banquet ended, more than 400 field cultivators joined forces to kill the Shujian Lake where Nascent Soul and Jindan Jianxiu were.

In the past two days, there has been news from Chishui City that the little devil Gu is coming to eat crabs in the city. Fan Yan, the young lord of Chishui City, has already started spending a lot of money to buy the most plump golden crab in Shujian Lake, which is the rarest "bamboo branch" among golden crabs. ", it is huge and contains abundant water transport essence. An ordinary fisherman should not expect to catch one in his life, and he will never see it.

Now Qingxia Island is in full swing, Liu Zhimao has stopped expanding in the past year, like a person who eats like a maniac, he has to eat slowly, digest first, otherwise it looks like a good situation, but in fact it is still a mess. Scattering sand, Liu Zhimao has always been sober on this point, and he has been very strict in the selection of Shanzawa Yexiu who came to seek refuge on Qingxia Island. The specific affairs are all handled by a female cultivator named Tianhu Jun among his disciples.

She was originally Gu Can's second senior sister, and now she has become a senior senior sister. The senior senior brother has already been beaten to death by the younger junior Gu Can, so there must be no empty seat.

Surrounding Gu Can now, there are a large group of young monks and wealthy sons of high status, such as Fan Yan, the young lord of Chishui City, who is going to hold a banquet in honor of "Brother Gu", who is the only child of the lord, spoiled by his wife like a king I am not afraid, claiming that in this life I will not obey any land gods, but only admire heroes.

In short, a no-brainer.

He's almost thirty, and he still likes to call Gu Can Big Brother Gu.Chishui City likes to treat this young city lord as a joke.

In addition, there are Qingxia Island's fourth senior brother Qin Jue and sixth senior brother Chao Zhe, both of whom are outstanding monks in Shujian Lake. They are talented and never lenient in killing people.

There is also Lu Caisang, the younger brother of the island owner of Huangli Island, who is hundreds of years older than the island owner's senior brother, because he is a disciple who was recruited by an ancestor before retreating, and his seniority is extremely high.

Before the heyday of Qingxia Island, Huangli Island was one of the few large islands that could compete with Qingxia Island. Of course, the momentum is definitely not as good as Qingxia Island now.

Yuan Yuan, the young master of Guming Island, is nicknamed Yuanyuan. His parents are a couple of monks and Taoists on Guming Island. The key to the existence of such arrogance that even Liu Zhimao had a headache was that this female cultivator was said to have a great background. She was the concubine of a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator from the Zhuying Dynasty in her early years.

Han Jingling, the prince of Shihao Kingdom, and Huang He, the son of the Great General.

Gu Can, the playboys Fan Yan, Qin Jue, Chao Zhe, Lu Caisang, Yuan Yuan, Han Jingling, Huang He, plus that elder sister Tian Hujun who doesn't like to show their faces but only respects Gu Can.

Except for Mr. Tian Hu who was dragged in by Gu Can, the other eight people were congenial. It is said that at Gu Can's suggestion, a big rooster was caught from nowhere, and they became brothers by blood.

Don't talk about Jianhu, in fact, even the other eight people are murmuring, obviously there are nine people, why do they claim to be ten heroes?

At that time, the little devil Gu Can was only barefoot, standing on the second seat, bouncing around, pointing to the vacant top seat, grinning, saying that this position will be reserved for now.

This Gu Can is not very old, but after arriving at Shujian Lake, his height is like mushrooms after a spring rain, and grows a lot every year. A child in his teens is already the height of a fourteen or fifteen year old boy.

There is a gossip that said that the dragon, which likes to eat Qi practitioners as food, can feed back the little devil Gu's body. On Qingxia Island, the only assassination that was the closest to success was when the assassin slashed Gu On the back of the little devil, if it is an ordinary person, it will definitely be killed on the spot. Even if it is a qi trainer of the lower five realms, it is estimated that it will not even think about getting out of bed after three or two years of cultivation, but in less than half a month, the little devil will come out of the mountain again. , and began to sit on the head of the dragon that he called "Little Loach", happily wandering around Shujian Lake.

On this day, looking at Shujian Lake from the tall buildings in Chishui City, you can see a huge building boat slowly approaching. The size of the building boat is as high as the city wall of Chishui City.

Around the building boat, except for the water waves crushed by the hull, on the lake surface more than a hundred feet away from the building boat, there are circles of subtle ripples, which are not easy to detect.

There was a guy with the appearance of a boy, wearing a well-fitting dark blue python robe, sitting barefoot on the railing of the bow, dangling his legs, and would habitually sniff his nose every once in a while, as if it had been a long time , is taller, but there are still two snots hanging on his face, so the two little green dragons have to be taken back to the cave.

There are three people standing behind him, Elder Sister Tian Hujun, she is now in charge of the life and death power of nearly ten thousand people in Qingxia Island and the vassal islands, and she already has a bit of majesty similar to Zhenjun Jiejiang, standing on her left and right The two juniors are Qin Jue and Chao Zhe.

After that, there was a row of more than a dozen beautiful ladies with different styles of cardigan who just went out to play and put on subtle and decent clothes.

And the lake around the boat is under the water.

It is a "little loach" hundreds of feet long.

The ferry on the shore has long been occupied by Fan Yan, the young lord of Chishui City, who expelled all the idlers. Han Jingling, the prince of Shihao Kingdom, who has been in refuge here for half a year, is chatting and laughing happily on the shore.The only thing missing is Huang He, the son of the great general of the Shihao Kingdom. There is no way, Huang He, the old man who holds the [-] elite frontier soldiers in the southeast of the Shihao Kingdom, is said to have just stabbed the emperor of the Shihao Kingdom in the back and defected to Dali Song's iron cavalry also planned to support the prince Han Jingling as the new emperor. They were very busy, and Huang He couldn't get away. They just sent a secret letter to Chishui City, asking his brother Han Jingling to wait for the good news.

The outline of the city wall of Chishui became more and more clear.

Mr. Tianhu walked to the side of the boat rail, and whispered: "I really want to change the route to enter the city, and deliberately give those assassins a chance."

The boy folded his hands on his chest, grinned and said, "Otherwise, you really think that I come here to eat crabs, they are fucking disgusting, and they are annoying to eat, not as good as the deep-fried crabs in the creek in my hometown." Eat, one bite at a time, crunchy and crunchy, you don’t need chopsticks, that’s the kind of taste that makes you applaud. You bastards of Shujian Lake, you know how much money you have in your ass pocket, so you’re just talking nonsense. You see, I need to bring Silver? Do you need to bring a large group of followers?"

Mr. Tian Hu smiled, "Young junior brother is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and we ordinary people are naturally not comparable."

The young man leaned back, turned his head, and said with a chuckle: "Elder Sister, even if you say such good things, you are not qualified to be that little lady with a cardigan. She is too ugly and her chest is too small. It's so pitiful. You're just ordinary." The mirror, for you mediocre women, is a mirror for demons."

Tian Hujun smiled awkwardly, she didn't think it was a bad thing in her heart.

There is a quiet path by the lake far from the ferry, where the willows are turning yellow. A middle-aged man is standing beside a willow tree, looking at the boat on Shujian Lake from a distance. do not drink.

As the local people in Longquan County became more and more familiar with the so-called mountain gods, some people chewed out the aftertaste and realized that not all doctors in the world can make people feel no pain and sleep peacefully in the face of serious illnesses. ointment.In particular, there are people who are constantly being recruited into the Longquan Sword Sect. Even among the survivors of the prisoners of the Lu Dynasty, there are two children who have reached the sky in one step and become little gods on Shenxiu Mountain.

Yang's shop was bustling.The seven aunts and eight aunts all brought their younger children to visit the pharmacy, sharpened their heads one by one, and searched for gods. Old man Yang, who was sitting in the backyard, was of course the most "suspicious".As a result, the Yang family's shop was almost closed, and the current head of the Yang family, who has a ancestral motto passed down from generation to generation, almost kowtowed to old man Yang to make amends.

They are all neighbors in the neighborhood, or they are familiar faces in the town, who can always make some connections.The Yang family is not one of the four surnames and ten families in the small town, it is an ordinary wealthy and well-off family, it is not easy for the shop assistants to drive people away, and besides, unless they are determined to see blood, they really cannot be driven away.

If it didn't work, the pharmacy had no choice but to find someone to guard the door, and tried to persuade him that Lao Yangtou was not an old fairy at all, but an old man with a few secret recipes handed down from his family.

Who would believe this kind of bullshit.The more this is the case, the more suspicious it is, and the more I feel that old man Yang, who likes to swallow clouds, is a hidden master.

Fortunately, Old Man Yang didn't seem to care much about these things, and he didn't let the Patriarch of the Yang family close the shop directly. The aptitude to become a fairy requires money, and it's not cheap, a snowflake.

After all, the people in the small town are used to being poor, even if they suddenly have a door for money, and they can think of finding a road to the mountains for the family descendants, they will not be the kind of people who don't take money as money. It was worth 1000 taels of silver. Some people borrowed money from friends who suddenly became rich by selling ancestral items. Fortunately, many people chose to wait and see. There were not too many people who brought money to the pharmacy on the first day, Old Man Yang said There was a cloud of fairy words, these are not important, the important thing is that old man Yang just shook his head, not looking at anyone.

After the number of people visiting the door decreased, the pharmacy began to spread the word again that they would no longer accept snowflake money, as long as they bought a package of medicine at Yang’s shop, everyone was in the neighborhood, and a snowflake money was indeed a bit expensive .

As a result, the number of people visiting the door dropped sharply.

The Yang family drugstore must be crazy about money.

Then there were people who went back on their word and went to Yang's shop to beg for the snowflake money, beating and rolling, doing everything they could.

The shop was extremely resolute in this matter, and would not give an inch, let alone a snowflake, or a copper coin.The business you love and I want in the world, and the reason for refunding the money, really think that Yang's shop is doing good deeds

Everyone hit a wall, and suddenly one day, a guy who was close to the Yang family shop, after drunk, said that he relied on his relationship to get back the fairy money, and everyone in the Yang family shop said that, that Old man Yang is actually a liar who copied a tattered physiognomy book by rote, and even the first gossip was intentionally spread by the Yang family shop in order to make money for the pharmacy.

It's fried.

The Yang family's shop became notorious overnight, and the Yang family's children, like rats crossing the street, complained endlessly, demanding that the Yang family's patriarch let that old guy who dared to pretend to be a ghost if he had no ability get out of the medicine shop.

The Patriarch of the Yang family broke his tongue and managed to appease everyone in the family.

After that, the pharmacy was finally clean.

It is estimated that the pharmacy and old man Yang are begging to show people their bones, but no one is willing, and they don't bother to answer if they don't charge money, unless the money is about the same.

So much so that the pharmacy replaced two shop assistants, a kiln worker girl from Qilong Lane, and a child from Taoye Lane, no one cares anymore.

For these nonsense things, laymen watch the fun, experts watch the way, and those who are destined to watch the road.

A small town man who disappeared for a few years and reappeared, Zheng Dafeng who was guarding the gate, besides being a hunchback, did not bring back a daughter-in-law, nor did he bring back some money from other places. Although Zheng Dafeng was not a shop clerk, During this period of time, he often sat on the bench at the gate of the pharmacy, not stopping anyone, just watching the fun, still looking like a fool, with treacherous eyes, and kept sticking to the woman's breasts and buttocks, which made the little girl feel more uncomfortable. The town women look down on him.

After Zheng Dafeng returned to the small town, besides seeing this farce, he also saw a lot of windfalls, all night long, gathering crowds to gamble, hanging out with those newly built brothels every day, going in with their heads held high, their legs a little weak come out,

In addition, there is so much money in the pocket that it is almost uncountable, and the waist is harder than the old pagoda tree. The men and old bachelors who used to walk on Fulu Street and Taoye Lane did not dare to breathe. Have the courage to start drinking with those stewards, discussing whether it is possible to buy one or two good-looking maidservants, preferably women who can read and write, even better, if it is a young girl, then the best up.In the past, I never dared to lie on the bed with a lady who smelled like books. In this life, I will not be considered a loser. In the past, a bag of copper coins was the uncle, but now the money is our grandson. Money and the like are just shit

Money flows like flowing water, flowing in the hands of different people.

People are the same.

After autumn, Zheng Dafeng felt a little sad.

Basking in the warm autumn sun, Zheng Dafeng lowered his head and glanced at his crotch, feeling even more worried. He always felt sorry for his little brother. Could it be that he really wanted to change from a handsome young bachelor to an old bachelor?

There is no reason to think that the woman who finally claimed to be surnamed Jiang on the street outside the Chenchen Pharmacy probably weighs about twice as much as Zheng Dafeng. Zheng Dafeng shuddered. The girl is a good girl, but there are some things that can't be dealt with just by turning off the lights. Yes, such a big girl, no matter how good her temperament is, and no matter how willing to be friends, Zheng Dafeng would rather treat her little brother badly than treat herself badly.

When Zheng Dafeng was full of guilt for his own thoughts and that girl Jiang, Ruan Qiong suddenly appeared in the backyard of the pharmacy today, and old man Yang did not smoke dry tobacco for the first time today. Glancing at Ruan Qiong, "A rare visitor."

Ruan Qiong carried two jugs of wine and raised his arms.

Old Man Yang shook his head and smiled, "It's not good."

Ruan Qiong moved a bench and sat on the opposite side of the main room, separated from old man Yang by a courtyard.

Old man Yang asked: "It's rare that Saint Ruan is restless. Why, worry about Ruan Xiu?"

Ruan Qiong nodded.

Old man Yang rarely joked, "Is it that difficult to accept Chen Ping'an as a son-in-law?"

Ruan Qiong took a sip of wine, "Chen Ping'an is not a bad person. Although I don't want to accept him as a disciple, I definitely don't agree with Chen Ping's character. If Ruan Xiu is not Ruan Xiu, but an ordinary girl, then I will let you go." Let her go. Maybe I will often have a drink with this son-in-law. It’s not bad. And I don’t have to worry about my daughter being wronged. It's Xiuxiu."

Old man Yang nodded, "Things are great, but there are also worries. I can understand."

Ruan Qiong drank the veritable melancholy wine, wiped his mouth after taking a big gulp of wine, and said sullenly: "Because the old god has talked about it before, so I can guess a little about Cui Chan's general plan this time. , it’s just that I can’t guess how sinister the intentions are, how the links are interlocking and carefully set up, this is not my strong point, and I don’t bother to think about it. , if it gets deeper and deeper, something will happen sooner or later, so this trip let Xiuxiu go to Shujian Lake."

Old man Yang said: "If you are willing to vote for peaches, a smart person like Cui Chen will definitely repay you. Don't worry. He will make things beautiful and seamless, at least it will not backfire."

Having said that, old man Yang smiled slightly, as if he remembered something

, "Return peaches to plums, Li Daitao is stiff, um, they are a bit chewy, as for whether it tastes like Coptis chinensis or sugar water, it depends on the person."

Ruan Qiong also doesn't dwell on such riddles, not to mention him, I am afraid that apart from Qi Jingchun, all the figures of the Three Religions who sit in the Lizhu Cave can't guess what this old god is thinking and planning. what you want.Ruan Qiong never engages in unnecessary contests. During the good times, she is already busy enough making iron and casting swords, but she also has to worry about Xiuxiu's future, so there is so much free time to play tricks with others.

Old man Yang just said casually, and then turned back to the topic, "You want to make a deal, use the help of Gu Can from Nipingxiang, and then use that embroidered tiger's secret plan to create a gap between Ruan Xiu and Chen Ping'an. Two people, the more transparent their minds are, the more they like to dig into the horns. When they get up, a flaw the size of a sesame seed is bigger than the sky, so I didn't stop Ruan Xiu from leaving Longquan County. This is also the human nature of you, Ruan Qiong, as a father. "

Ruan Qiong sighed for no reason, "This Cui Chan is really amazing."

He, Ruan Qiong, hopes that his daughter, Ruan Xiu, will stop being entangled in the matter of love between men and women, and practice with peace of mind.To enter the upper five realms as soon as possible, one must first have the power to protect oneself.

When I wanted to sleep, someone handed me a pillow.

Ruan Qiong had no contact with Cui Chan, and Cui Chan did not hint at anything.

Everything is because Ruan Qiong voluntarily joins the chessboard and serves as one of the pieces on Cui Chan's chessboard with his daughter Ruan Qiong.

This is Cui Chan's accurate calculation and correct prediction in the hearts of the people, and this is the strength of a national player outside the chessboard.

Old man Yang said with a smile: "Don't take the head disciple of Wen Sheng in the past as an onion. Half of the rules in the third and fourth battles that determined the trend of the entire Haoran world's cultural context were made by Cui Chen. What do you think?" It's just that Cui Chan was frightened at that time, and he was a little guilty, hiding here and there, it was very hard, and he didn't dare to show up, so he lost the last chance to mend the relationship between master and apprentice. Of course, this is not a bad idea It's not Wen Sheng's invisible protection for Cui Chan. You see, my big disciple has deceived his master and exterminated his ancestors so much. He is even more like a bereaved dog than the most holy teacher back then. Don't stop? Didn't you guys clamor to have compassion, then just pass Cui Chan as a fart. So Cui Chan ran to our Aquarius Island safe and sound. Ruan Qiong, don't look at me with this look, this This kind of rogue thing, Wen Sheng can do it. So there are so many accompanying saints, I just think this gentleman is more pleasing to the eye."

Ruan Qiong twitched the corners of his mouth, "The curved intestines of a scholar are estimated to be more twisted than all the mountains in Haoran Tianxia."

Old man Yang chuckled and said, "In addition to the Qingming Tianxia of Taoism, the Lotus Tianxia of Buddhism, and the wild world of Yaozu, they are all incomparable."

It was the first time that Ruan Qiong felt that drinking and chatting with this old god was much better than expected. In the future, she could come more often. Anyway, the female university did not want to stay. The first time I thought of this, Ruan Qiong wished he could open a wine shop in a small town, so that he would not have to mobilize and make fun of a market woman every time he went to that shop to buy wine.

After Ruan Qiong left, Zheng Dafeng walked into the backyard.

As an apprentice, the first thing Zheng Dafeng does when he returns to the town is of course to visit his master.

That meeting was the first time in Zheng Dafeng's life that he dared to face old man Yang squarely, and calmly said some outrageous words, for example, even if he was worthless in this life, he would either continue to go to the post station to make a living, or give it to Chen Pingan. Luoposhan, continue to be the gatekeeper, and Zheng Dafeng doesn't feel ashamed, it's good to be safe and sound.

Old man Yang just muttered over there, neither saying yes nor cursing.

After Zheng Dafeng finished speaking his heart, he left the backyard of the pharmacy. Although he was still a little guilty, his heart felt relaxed like never before.

Then he felt a little ridiculous. He was an eighth-level martial artist before, so he didn't dare to talk to the master like this. Every time he spoke, the words that the master said would never exceed ten words.Zheng Dafeng was afraid that his master would mistake him for a broken pot, let alone look down on him.Just thinking about it, Zheng Dafeng thinks it's good to stay in the small town, and come to the pharmacy every now and then to look for the old man, to see if the old man will be annoyed by seeing him.

Zheng Dafeng entered the backyard, sat on the bench, didn't say a word, and planned to sit with Master for a while, and then left.

Although he held back his words, Zheng Dafeng was very clear about Master's temper. As long as he made a decision, not to mention him, Li Er, I am afraid that no one in the world could change Master's mind.

Old man Yang smoked a dry cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke ring, and said slowly: "Didn't you bring a cigarette stick with you when you came home? Why did you throw it away?"

Zheng Dafeng was struck by Tianlei until the outside was scorched and the inside was tender. The first thing he did was to break his fingers and said in surprise: "Master, you said 22 words in one breath today."

Old man Yang asked: "A disciple who dare not look directly at his master is worthy of being a master. Say a few words about you back then, are you worthy?"

Zheng Dafeng sat upright, "It is the disciple who disappointed the master."

Old man Yang's next words were as bitter and mean as ever, "If you don't have hope, how can you be disappointed."

Eight characters.

This was the most normal master-student conversation before Zheng Dafeng left his hometown.

Zheng Dafeng didn't feel wronged, he was quite happy, and with these eight words, the master has already spoken thirty words today, and when he sees Li Er in the future, he must brag about it

Old man Yang stretched out his hand and tossed it. It was the tobacco rod that Zheng Dafeng had secretly thrown outside the town. Zheng Dafeng took it in his hand and found that it was actually filled with tobacco.

Old man Yang said: "I just want to ask you one thing, do other people deserve to be tricked by Cui Chan like this?"

Zheng Dafeng sighed, rubbed his fingers casually, and lit the tobacco, which is still possible now.

Old man Yang said: "If Chen Ping'an hadn't been shattered, he would have been an Earth Immortal, neither good nor bad, but not top-notch. Now, Chen Ping'an's heart has been broken, and the future of Qi practitioners has been cut off. You can go all the way through martial arts, the worst thing is, you are completely disheartened, what's wrong with being a rich man who has lost his soul but lived a stable life in Luoluo Mountain?"

Both master and apprentice were swallowing clouds and fog, Zheng Dafeng said suddenly: "This is not good."

Old Man Yang sneered, "Oh!"

Zheng Dafeng raised his head, summoned up his courage and said, "He is Chen Pingan."

Old man Yang knocked on the cigarette rod on the steps, and said casually: "The real key to choosing Chen Ping'an is Qi Jingchun's words, which moved that existence and chose to bet on that one, do you really think it is?" Chen Ping'an's qualifications, temperament, talent and circumstances"

Zheng Dafeng pointedly said, "Qi Jingchun, will you choose Ma Kuxuan, or Xie's parents, to persuade that existence? I think Qi Jingchun is too embarrassed to say so, so according to Chen Pingan's theory, if you want to find out what the outcome will be, To push back step by step, Qi Jingchun's words are of course very important, but can Chen Pingan's qualifications, temperament, talent and circumstances be ignored? Going out, I know more and more that the world outside is more complicated than the young ones. The people of the town believe in suffering in the world. As long as someone gets rewarded, it is no longer suffering. Those long sufferings in suffering, those ups and downs in people's hearts, are nothing compared to a realm, a magic weapon, A flying sword, a chance."

Old man Yang smiled, his eyes were cold, "These fools are also worthy of you and me talking about the crumbs of a group of ants scrambling for food, how do you talk to them? Lie on the ground and talk to them? It seems that you Going out for a long-distance travel, the more you live, the more you go back.”

Zheng Dafeng had a playful smile, and quickly changed the subject, "Master has bet a lot on Chen Ping'an, so I don't worry about losing everything."

Old man Yang shook his head and said, "I have poor eyesight, and if I lose money in business, don't complain."

Zheng Dafeng sighed.

I've already done my best, and if I keep nagging Chen Pingan about something, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive.

Old man Yang glanced at the rickety man in a daze, and told the truth, "What Cui Chan did and asked for, and what he learned in the dark, gave me some good things, which benefited me a lot. I used to rack my brains, After thinking for more than 9000 years, I still haven’t been able to solve the crux of the problem. I’ve thought a lot, but with little success. It’s better to have two chats with Cui Chan. It’s more rewarding. I have to return this extra gain to Cui Chan.”

"So even if the bet on Chen Ping's body is completely lost, it still doesn't matter much."

Zheng Dafeng asked: "Master, I'm very curious. Among the many disciples you have taken in, will anyone make you particularly happy or sad? For example, senior brother Li Er, who is expected to be among the gods in the ten realms, will master compare them?" satisfy"

Old Man Yang shook his head and said, "No."

Zheng Dafeng pointed at himself and smiled, "My disciples are all in such a miserable situation, so I'm not sad at all."

Old man Yang could only sneer.

Zheng Dafeng's eyes were sad, "Master, although I have prepared for it, but I really know the answer, the apprentice is still a little sad."

Old man Yang was too lazy to talk nonsense with this disciple, and suddenly said: "In order to live, and to live better after living, you have to compete with the world. Childish and ignorant, young blood, brave man, chivalrous in the world, scholarly, loyal generals, and gamblers. Go forward bravely, with a clear conscience. But someone just wants to twist yourself, how do you untie the dead knot that you twisted into a ball?"

"Today's cultivators, it is difficult to cultivate their minds. This is also a restriction we set for them back then. It is the reason why they are inferior to ants. But at that time, they did not expect that it happened to be this kind of chicken rib that became what Cui Chen said. Let’s just say that this person’s heart is muddy and watery, just like a mountain climber, wearing a soaked suit, not delaying the journey, and getting heavier and heavier. The hundred-mile mountain road is half over ninety. In the end, How to wring it dry, feel refreshed, and continue climbing is a great question. However, no one thought that this group of ants could really climb to the top of the mountain. Of course, they may have thought of it, but for the sake of immortality, I don't care, I mistakenly thought that the ants climbed to the top of the mountain and saw the jade buildings in the sky. Even if they grow wings, there is still a long way to go from the top of the mountain to the sky. It’s not too late. Originally, I planned to fatten up the autumn fat, go hunting again, and have a full meal. In fact, after countless years, it is still very stable. The decay of the golden bodies of countless gods has been slowed down. Expand, but you have seen the final outcome."

When old man Yang said this, he didn't express too much grief or sorrow. He was calm and calm, like an outsider, talking about the biggest secret in the world.

Zheng Dafeng asked cautiously: "Why didn't the saints of the Three Religions kill Master?"

Old man Yang said with a smile: "For you now, is it meaningful to ask such a big question? You should think about it carefully, why not be a bachelor?"

Zheng Dafeng said with a sneer: "Master can also tell funny things."

Old man Yang showed a helpless look for the first time, and his wrinkled face became more and more wrinkled, "Isn't it because of Li Er, that god-hating woman who hates ghosts and ghosts?"

Zheng Dafeng asked softly: "Sister-in-law too"

Old man Yang sneered and said, "If she is, I will treat her like a pig and a dog for life and death, just because she is just a shrew in the market who makes you feel bad, I don't care."

Zheng Dafeng was relieved.

Old man Yang said: "What Gu Can is to Chen Ping'an is what Chen Ping'an is to Qi Jingchun. It happens to be the dead end."

Zheng Dafeng frowned and said, "Gu Can and Chen Ping'an's temperaments are too far apart."

The man shook his head, "It's different, it's different."

Old man Yang said with a smile: "If you don't talk about good and evil, then look back, is it really different?"

Zheng Dafeng fell into deep thought.

Zheng Dafeng's eyes gradually became firm.

Old man Yang shook his head and said, "Don't get meddled, even if you, Zheng Dafeng, are already a tenth-level martial artist, it's useless. Even if Wen Sheng wants to help Chen Ping'an in this game that has nothing to do with killing or life and death, he still can't help. This has nothing to do with knowledge. It doesn’t matter whether it’s big or not, and whether it’s high or not. Because the accompanying gods of the Confucian Temple were smashed, the roots of the sage’s own knowledge are still there. Of course, the sage can use a huge knowledge to force Temporarily covering Chen Pingan's current knowledge and subduing that evil mind, but in the long run, the gains outweigh the losses, and it is easy to go astray and kill Chen Pingan."

Old man Yang glanced at the sky, "Headmaster Lu, who came here as a guest, can help Chen Pingan take another path, but Chen Pingan himself will not agree."

"And there is one thing that Chen Ping'an guessed very accurately. The one that Master Lu wanted was the Chen Ping'an chosen by Qi Jingchun. Naturally, it wasn't Chen Ping'an himself. So if he lost his mind, he was abducted to Bai Yujing. It's better. It’s not impossible to become a puppet, at the eleventh and twelveth realms. But if it’s a little bit worse, it’s estimated that you won’t be able to escape from the palm of Master Lu in every lifetime, and you can use it to observe the Tao.”

Zheng Dafeng hummed, "It's like a man. A woman who can't get it, the more awkward she feels, the more beautiful she looks. If you get it, it's just the same thing."

Old man Yang said for no reason, "Nowadays there are quite a few brothels in the town."

Zheng Dafeng's face turned red, "Master, I'm just talkative, I'm not that kind of person"

Old man Yang asked a question that seemed completely irrelevant to the topic, "What are the four plaques in Crab Square hanging on the side of the town?"

Zheng Dafeng replied: "The Confucianists do their part, the Taoists are natural, the Buddhists don't ask outside, and the soldiers are angry."

Old Man Yang asked with a smile, "Think about it carefully."

Zheng Dafeng thought for a moment, "Doing my part is one of the key knots in Chen Ping's situation."

Old man Yang smiled, "Taoism seeks the way alone and harmonizes with heaven and earth. Is it beautiful or not? That's why I said that the Taoism taught by Lu Zhang can save Chen Pingan for a while, and he doesn't even care about the world. Regardless of the life and death of a boy in Niping Lane, the literary sage scolded that Zhangjiao Lu for hiding from others and not knowing the sky. In my opinion, it is actually not the case. Zhangjiao Lu, who was seeking Taoism in the land territory of Haoran Tianxia in the early days, may be In this way, when he went out on a boat, he started to be different. He really started to forget his mind, and he was incomparably compatible and close to the Taoist Dao. That's why he became Taoist's favorite disciple. As for the Dharma derived from that Buddhist language, see It seems to be a way for Chen Pingan to break the situation, but it is not the case. Cui Chan must have thought of it and has a countermeasure. As for the angry bullfighting"

Zheng Dafeng lowered his voice, "Then she"

Old man Yang said expressionlessly: "She doesn't care at all. Maybe Chen Ping'an would be more relaxed. As long as Chen Ping'an doesn't die, even if it goes to an extreme, she is happy to see it happen."

Zheng Dafeng scratched his head, "After all, Chen Pingan must be finished."

Old Man Yang laughed and said, "When the time comes, a rich man guards the top of the mountain, and you guard his gate, eating and drinking. It's not very good."

Zheng Dafeng suddenly raised his head and stared at the old man, "Master is deliberately trying to make Chen Ping'an's evil head up, so as to temper his sword heart, and don't talk about the benevolence and morality that binds hands and feet, making Chen Ping'an just feel that the world is big and the earth is big. It makes sense to only have a sword in hand, so as to help that existence and throw away the scabbard of Chen Pingan earlier, right?"

Old man Yang smiled and said: "It seems that there is still a bit of progress to be able to think of this step."

Zheng Dafeng tremblingly said: "This is what she asked for."

Old man Yang shook his head, showing a look of emotion and nostalgia, and murmured: "She

Why would she care about these? She doesn't care.She is her. "

Zheng Dafeng looked sad, "Poor, really pitiful."

He thought of the young man sitting opposite him on the bench under the eaves at the dust pharmacy, eating melon seeds and smiling at the people in the yard.

He always felt that after suffering such a big and innocent disaster, that young man should have a few days of comfortable life.

Unexpectedly, from the moment he left the old dragon city, there was a situation more terrifying than Du Mao in the Ascension Realm and Tun Jianzhou, the natal thing, waiting for him, Chen Pingan.

It's autumn.

It's autumn hunting.

Old man Yang said indifferently: "Nowadays, with the advent of the world of great chaos, there will come a day when people don't like to talk about the truths, those stupid people who think it's useless to know the truth, and those wicked people who use the truth to satisfy their selfish desires." , will follow those fundamental truths, and get to the bottom of it together. If you don’t eat, you will die, and if you don’t drink water, you will die. At that time, you will know how precious it is for someone to be willing to reason. Fortunately, people have a bad memory. After eating, the pain will soon disappear. Forget, the world has been going back and forth like this, and it has been 1 years, and it is still not getting better."

Zheng Dafeng said in a trembling voice: "Okay, that's fine."

Old Man Yang smiled, "Am I human?"

Zheng Dafeng was speechless.

Old man Yang asked again, "Are you human?"

Zheng Dafeng remained silent.

Zheng Dafeng finally left the shop, walked to Niping Lane, passed by Chen Ping'an's ancestral house, and also passed by Gu Can's ancestral house.

Old man Yang was alone in the yard, puffing and puffing.

Thousands of years ago, there were clusters of divine brilliance in the sky, mighty and mighty, with bright stars.

Those insignificant human natures in the world, just a little bit of sparks, how could they win?

Cui Chen gave the answer.

Old man Yang didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit it.

And the guy who can give that answer is probably already somewhere in Shujian Lake by now.

On the top floor of a high-rise building with a wide view in Chishui City, the door was opened. A young man in white with a mole between his eyebrows and an old man in Confucian shirts sat looking out at the magnificent scene of Shujian Lake.

Cui Dongshan, Cui Chan.

Today's two people, there used to be one person, Xiuhu, the master of the Great Li Kingdom, and the first disciple of Wen Sheng in the past.

With a solemn expression, Cui Dongshan used the flying sword Jinsui to draw a small thunder pool around him to remind himself that no matter what happened, he could not get out of this circle.

Cui Chan glanced at Cui Dongshan, and said with a smile: "As expected of a master and a student, both of them like to paint the ground as a prison."

Cui Dongshan gritted his teeth and said: "I lost, I will definitely admit it, you lost, but don't bully others, turn your face and deny it"

If it wasn't for this old bastard who forcibly set up this game and didn't give him any room to refuse, how could he, Cui Dongshan, be willing to go to the gambling table again? He now hates the term "big brother" the most. I don't even want to kill him.

But the old bastard doesn't agree, what can Cui Dongshan do?

Conversely, if Cui Dongshan was sitting in Cui Chan's position, he felt that he would do the same.

How can I not understand myself

This time, he, Cui Dongshan and Cui Chan, were very simple, they had to decide on a priority, that's all, it didn't involve life or death.

This is also the reason why Cui Dongshan is unwilling to break the jar, and this is precisely what Cui Dongshan hates himself the most. "A person" will know where his bottom line is than any outsider.

If Cui Chan loses, from now on, Cui Chan will be allowed to be king in the Sui Dynasty, and not only Cui Chan, but the entire Song Dynasty of Dali will bet on Chen Pingan.Chen Pingan is worth the price.The last time Cui Chan met, he said with a smile, "Even I thought it was a dead game. Chen Ping can break the game, so naturally he deserves my admiration. Such an existence cannot be killed casually. That's another extreme. Do your best to win over. There is no shame in this."

If Cui Dongshan loses, he has to go out of the mountain and leave the Cliff Academy to help Cui Chen strategize and win the Zhuying Dynasty, and after bypassing the Guanhu Academy, the dispatch of the Dali Iron Cavalry, or in the south of Dali, Guanhu Academy To the north, suppress all parties, quickly digest the national background of half of Aquarius Continent, and become the internal national power that truly belongs to Dali.

Cui Dongshan has to obediently go back to the path of merit and become the first disciple of Cui Chan's theory of meritorious deeds.

Why did the fairy family ferry in Qingluan Kingdom take so long? Why did there not go directly to Shujian Lake in Old Dragon City, Qingluan Kingdom, and Huangting Kingdom? Why did Longquan County suddenly start a new round of buying and selling the two natal objects?

It's all for Shujian Lake's everything is ready, not even the east wind.

But in this process, everything needs to be in line with the general trend of the continent, and it is reasonable. It is not that Cui Chan is forcing the layout, but under the premise that Cui Dongshan is watching personally, Cui Chan makes every step. .

Da Li had already secretly infiltrated Shujian Lake, and now he began to quietly close the net.

As an important land adjacent to the Zhuying Dynasty, Shujian Lake has long been in the eyes of the Great Li Guoshi.

Jiejiang Zhenjun Liu Zhimao wants to unify Shujian Lake.After dominating the rivers and lakes, it is natural to sell it to the emperor's family for a sky-high price.

This is the emperor's house, a little far away from Shujian Lake.The emperor's house will be sold again, and it will be sold to Yu Guizong of Tongyezhou.Yu Guizong planned to choose a geomantic land in Aquarius Continent as the opening address of the next sect.There are already three sites selected, one is Longquan County, which is divided into two, and Ruan Qiong and Yuguizong are divided equally.One is somewhere near Yunlin Jiang Clan and Qingluan Kingdom.The last one is Shujian Lake.

Liu Zhimao was originally a heroic character. With all these years of aggressive attacks and win-wins, he has become the overlord of the Shujian Lake. With the help of Brother Dali for the last time, he is expected to make a final decision.

Should have added Ruan Xiu, who stood opposite to Gu Can, should have waited until the latest king of the rivers and lakes was elected, and had experienced a serial fight with the oriole constantly behind him.

It's ok.

Originally, Ruan Xiu was not on the chessboard, her presence or absence does not matter, at most it is just icing on the cake.

Originally, Chen Pingan was supposed to go to Longquan County, happily buy one or two hilltops, practice boxing and chat with the two little guys in the Luoluo Mountain Bamboo House, having a great time.

Then he would suddenly hear a bad news from Shujian Lake. A big scuffle in Shujian Lake kicked off, and the young Gu Can was deeply involved in it, and exerted considerable influence.

After that, Chen Pingan hurriedly took a fairy family ferry that "just passed by" Niujiao Mountain, through Wei Bo's personal relationship, spent a lot of fairy money, ventured across the territory of Aquarius Island, and came to this Shujian Lake .

By that time, the situation will be even more complicated than it is now.

Because there are more dead people.

Maybe a Ruan Xiu will be added.

Cui Chan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the overall situation is settled, just pretend that I can't bear to kill you Cui Dongshan with a single stick, so as to save you the process of changing paths, which is too long and delays the general trend of Aquarius Continent."

Cui Chan shifted his gaze and looked at a small road by the lake. With a smile on his face, he said slowly: "You, Chen Pingan, stand upright by yourself and are willing to be reasonable in everything. Do you want to become a Buddhist and leave Hanna? up to you"

"There is no difference between closeness and distance in what you believe in. Then when the person you care about the most and closest to you makes a big mistake, a heinous mistake, but that person seems to have some reasons of his own, at this time you Chen Pingan What should I do about the truth that Chen Pingan has always insisted on, whether it works or not, I am very curious, and I am looking forward to it."

"It's better to go to those messy literati's notes, or the so-called warning quotes, and find some truths you want."

Cui Chan narrowed his eyes, "You and I can wait and see."

Cui Dongshan sneered and said, "A good gentleman can bully him."

Cui Chen said to himself: "For Chen Pingan, in the test in the small town back then, there were mostly foreign temptations and not pure enough, that's why we lost so badly. In the final analysis, I still underestimated a young man in a back alley. Since he can be selected by Qi Jingchun, I, we should have been more cautious at the beginning. So the current test is only about our heart."

Cui Dongshan was not kept in the dark by Cui Chan at all, and was being plotted by that old bastard behind his back. In fact, Cui Chan would tell Cui Dongshan straightforwardly every step of the way.

The more this happened, the more Cui Dongshan felt that he was waiting to die.

So when Chen Pingan and the four of them arrived in Qingluan Kingdom, Cui Dongshan couldn't sit still anymore. He couldn't just watch himself become the bastard's vassal.

So he suddenly appeared in that quiet and peaceful small village.

After that, until Chen Ping'an arrived at the Cliff Academy.

Cui Dongshan cheated twice.

Once, it was also "naturally" using Qingluan Kingdom's debate on Buddhism and Taoism to talk about Legalist knowledge. At that parting, the kit that Cui Dongshan secretly handed over to Pei Qian contained a sentence: .

The second time was when we met again at Shanya Academy and persuaded Chen Pingan to read more of the dozens of "serious scriptures" from the three religions and hundreds of schools.

It is already an extravagant hope to break this situation, so take a ten thousand step back and let Mr. Chen Pingan keep his Dao heart anyway. Cui Dongshan knew that he was struggling hard, and gave two possibilities.

One is Legalism, right and wrong, right and wrong, one is determined by the law, and there is no difference between closeness and estrangement.

One is Buddhism, the theory of cause and effect, all living beings are suffering, all kinds of causes yesterday, and all kinds of fruits today.All kinds of causes in the past life, all kinds of fruits in this life.The unforeseen misfortunes of those innocent people today are due to their past life's sins, and it should be so.

In fact, Cui Dongshan's cheating was even more subtle.

It was the most ingenious one in the courtyard of the Cliff Academy.

At this moment, Cui Chan looked at the boat on Qingxia Island slowly approaching the ferry on the lake, and said with a smile: "You cheated twice, I can pretend not to see it, and I will overwhelm you with great force, you will inevitably I am not convinced, so what if I let you two sons?"

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "You old bastard, you are really rich, I like it, I like it, or let me have another son, it's just three things, how about it?"

Cui Chan looked at the building boat, "Didn't I already give it up, I just said it, I'm afraid you, a brat, won't be able to hold your face."

Cui Dongshan's face was ugly.

Cui Chan said to himself: "In that Donghuashan courtyard, you deliberately seduced two naughty and lively children, smeared wantonly on your picture scroll of fairy family, and then you intentionally frightened Pei with a picture of a skeleton to cool off the summer heat." Qian, deliberately let his heat go too far, and then he really provoked Chen Ping's beating and scolding. Chen Ping's performance must make you very pleased, right? You know the dead truth, you know that the gentleman Qu and Shen are indispensable, and you know what it means to follow the Romans, and you laugh so hard that Cui Dongshan doesn't care about those picture scrolls. In your eyes, they are worthless, and Chen Pingan is willing to treat you as a My own person, so it seems that Chen Ping'an is unreasonable. It is obvious that Pei Qian and Li Huai made mistakes first. Why did you tell Cui Dongshan the fundamental truth of the order? Because this is called doing as the Romans do. There is no wrong favor. Your intention is nothing more than to ask Chen Pingan to think about why Gu Can became a murderer indiscriminately in this book slip lake after knowing what Gu Can did. Little devil, is it because of a little love or maybe it's the way of the world, Gu Can is not so wrong?"

Cui Dongshan's face was serious.

Cui Chen smiled and said: "But is it really useful? You really thought that your move was very good. You were wrong. Your move was a good move for the boy in Niping Lane back then. Now you have reason in your heart as a ballast stone." For Chen Pingan, it is just fueling the fire, which will only make him think more deeply, and in the end he will be more at a loss. Cui Dongshan, so far, have you not seen the really interesting part of my chess game?"

Cui Chan looked calm, and never turned his head to look at Cui Dongshan, let alone put on an aggressive posture, "The interesting part lies in the word "huohuo". , Reasons can be explained but cannot be explained. Legal principles, laws of a place, and their own principles can all be confused. Shujian Lake is a place of lawlessness. Secular laws don’t work, let alone the principles of sages. Even the islands of Shujian Lake The rules established in the past will not work. Here, big fish eat small fish and small fish eat dried shrimps, people eat people, people don’t treat people as human beings, everything speaks with fists, almost everyone is killing and being killed. Coercing it, no one can be an exception."

"These can be legitimate reasons for Chen Pingan to take a step back and seek peace of mind. These are the leeway I deliberately gave Chen Pingan. I gave him countless possibilities to choose. People stopped him. In this way, I can teach him to feel it personally. It seems that there is no natural truth in the world. I just want him, Chen Pingan, to choose to deny himself and accept the world's way for Gu Can. There are only positions, and no bastard theories of right and wrong."

Cui Chan smiled and said: "A good man who is reasonable, meets the way of the world who believes in fists in his heart and only speaks reasoning with his mouth, and then this good man, his head is broken, his hands and feet are bound, and he is a prisoner. I want to see, in the end you Chen Ping'an How can you talk about disappointment and hope?"

Cui Dongshan smiled miserably, "It's beyond words, it's really wonderful."

Afterwards, Cui Chan spoke eloquently, one sentence at a time, like knives piercing Cui Dongshan's heart.

"Mother of Gu Can, Chen Ping felt that she was kind enough to save your life for that bowl of favor back then."

"You have as much affection for Gu Can as Liu Xianyang, and you treat Gu Can as your own younger brother."

"Even that loach was handed over to Gu Can by you."

"Since you, Cui Dongshan, came to save Chen Pingan secretly with the purpose of Buddhism, did you really save Chen Pingan? Didn't you believe in the man on the archway not to ask outside? The cause and effect of those who died in vain can be explained, but once you escape from Zen, want to Give yourself a place of peace of mind in Buddhism that is not Confucian, but here comes the problem again, the earliest cause and effect related to you, do you want to see it or not?"

"If Chen Ping pretends not to see it, it doesn't matter, because Chen Ping has already lost the most precious heart of Qi Jingchun. You and I, the winner has already been divided."

"If Chen Pingan really can't see it, it doesn't matter, I will find someone to remind him."

Cui Chen finally made the conclusion, his tone was normal, but he was not overjoyed, "This time, no one can save him, let alone Chen Ping himself."

Cui Dongshan sat aside without saying a word.

Cui Chan finally turned his head and said with a smile: "Young man must be energetic, why is he even more energetic than me now?"

Cui Dongshan closed his eyes, with tears all over his face, and whispered softly: "May Mr.'s state of mind be like spring all the year round, like spring all the year round."

The boat by the lake had already landed, and the "middle-aged man" surnamed Chen was under the willow tree with withered leaves in the distance. Finally, he still didn't drink. After pinning the hip flask back to his waist, he hesitated.

He is 17 years old this year.

Cui Chen stood up, stretched out a palm, and said with a smile: "Please enter the urn."
