Sword comes

Chapter 456 The Book Lake

On the way home.

Chen Pingan stopped at the top of an unknown mountain, because he planned to find a nearby fairy family ferry and take the ferry back to Dali Longquan County. The bamboo slips that have not been dug out include pieces of bamboo from the descendants of Qidun Mountain and Qingshen Mountain, as well as green bamboo from ordinary mountains and the purple bamboo from the island of Shujian Lake.

The nearby mountains are undulating, but there is an ancient tea-horse road for merchants in the mountains. After entering the mountains, there are faintly some merchants on their way, hurrying to and fro.

Chen Pingan deliberately chose a fork in the road, walked a few miles on the ridge road, and came to the top of the mountain to dry bamboo slips.

After digging out all the bamboo slips, Chen Ping squatted aside, dazed.

It hurts my head to think about how much debt I have owed.

Chen Ping took a sip of wine, continued to comfort himself, and returned to Longquan County. Under Wei Bo's operation, he was a big landlord. Show some dignity, a little foreign debt is nothing.

Chen Pingan rubbed his cheeks, thinking that this is the reason, money is something outside of the body, and a gentleman uses it in a proper way. Chen Ping slapped himself on the cheek, he really thinks he is a good boy, doesn't he?

Then Chen Ping turned his head and looked, an old Confucian scholar whom he had met on the way, was panting and standing in the distance, when he saw him, he seemed to be afraid of meeting a lunatic, and was about to turn around and go down the mountain.

At that time, Chen Pingan rode a horse over the old Confucian scholar and the book boy, and looked at the footsteps and breathing, they were all ordinary people. Of course, if the other party was an expert and hidden deeply, Chen Pingan would not intentionally explore it.

The young scholar who shouldered the burden did not come with the old Confucian scholar. Maybe the old Confucian scholar wanted to climb the heights and write a poem alone. After expressing his feelings, he would return immediately and continue on his way.

Of course, it may also be a hidden great monk, wearing the cloak of a Confucian scholar, who treats Chen Pingan as a fat sheep, and wants to come here to kill and rob

Chen Pingan didn't care.

The old Confucian scholar seemed to have gone through a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and still made up his mind. He came a dozen steps away from Chen Pingan, bent down to look at the bamboo slips, and after looking at the bamboo slips for a while, relieved, he turned his head and asked with a smile: "Young man?" , traveling alone to study”

Chen Pingan thought for a while, then nodded and smiled, "That's right, I want to walk more."

"Well, not bad, not bad, traveling thousands of miles, reading thousands of books, today's young people, buying books and reading are getting more and more labor-saving, and the more they can't bear the pain."

The old Confucian scholar nodded first, and then asked: "You don't mind if I walk around, let's take a closer look at your precious bamboo slips."

Chen Ping smiled and said, "The old man just watches."

Soon Chen Pingan regretted it a little. The old man not only read the bamboo slips, flipped through them, but also liked to ask questions, and there were a lot of questions. Where did these words come from? Sometimes Chen Pingan said the title of the book With the owner of the sentence, the old man became more interested, and asked Chen Pingan if he knew the foundation and purpose of the man's book. Chen Pingan had a hard time answering. The old Confucian was not very polite. Yu Xin's knowledge, the latter had to teach Chen Pingan a lesson for his half-knowledge, so Chen Pingan had to nod frequently and accept the old man's comments with an open mind.

The old Confucian scholar was really not afraid of trouble, the young bookboy shouted twice from a distance, but was rejected by the old man, and finally the bookboy simply put down his burden and sat there sighing.

After more than an hour, the old man finally finished reading the bamboo slips and asking questions.

The old man suddenly smiled and asked: "Young man, I really like the twenty bamboo slips among them, can you give them to me?"

Chen Ping shook his head decisively, "No."

I don't know you well, old man.

Chen Ping'an just made up his mind that he will not be that good fortune boy in the near future.

The old man was a little anxious, "You have read so many books on the truth, why are you so petty, the world's scholars belong to a family, so it's nothing to send a few bamboo slips."

Chen Ping smiled and said: "Unfortunately, the old man is a scholar with profound knowledge. I don't count it now. Besides, it is also the truth in the book that you should not do to others what you don't want to do to others. Don't force others to make things difficult for you, old man. But it's not very good."

The old man pointed at Chen Ping'an, "My boy, read all the crooked ideas in the book, that's all. Since you are pressing me with the principle of not doing to others what you don't want to do to others, I can only hold my nose and say a gentleman." Don’t take advantage of others, comfort yourself.”

Chen Ping smiled without saying a word.

The old man obviously did not give up, and seeing that Chen Pingan was not up to the mark at all, he had to ask cheekily: "If it is too much to give me twenty bamboo slips, twelve will do."

Chen Ping said helplessly: "Old man, I really can't give it away. These bamboo slips and the contents on them are of great significance to me. I want to take them home and treasure them. Every bamboo slip is a state of mind for a moment and a place. , every time it is taken out to dry in the sun, it is a reflection.”

The old man said angrily: "That means you are studying dead books. If you really want to read the truth into your stomach, you don't need to read the bamboo slips."

Chen Ping was amused, the old man of your mother has one reason after another, in the final analysis, you still want to get 24 bamboo slips for nothing, and Chen Pingan has already found out that those things that the old man can't put it down the most Among the 45 bamboo slips, most of them were green bamboos from Qingshen Mountain and Zizhu from Zizhu Island. As soon as Chen Pingan nodded, the old man took away the bamboo slips that lingered in spiritual energy. But if he is a cultivator who has a little bit of vision and is greedy for the spirit bamboo itself, why would Chen Ping turn his face and deny it, and get back the bamboo slips?

Seeing that Chen Ping'an's attitude was very firm, the old man had no choice but to give up, muttering and complaining endlessly.

Chen Pingan began to tidy up the bamboo slips, seeing the old gentleman seeming to slip away one by one from his hand, his face was distressed.

It seemed that Chen Pingan couldn't bear to see it. The 24 bamboo slips were not negotiable, and [-] bamboo slips were not acceptable. , presumably this old gentleman is not much better, even if he is not tired of coveting those bamboo slips, but he is very old, squatting and nagging for a long time is also tiring.Furthermore, the old gentleman is full of knowledge, and in his conversation, he can't pretend to be serious.It's just that I'm a bit obsessed with money. In this regard, I am a fellow with myself.

The old man was exhausted, so he hurriedly "kindly" dissuaded Chen Pingan: "Young man, the sun is so big, don't rush to put it away. If the weather is good, let the bamboo slips be sun-dried, and the bamboo slips will be afraid of being eaten by insects and water. I'm worried that if the sun sets and I do it again, it will be too late to clean up. I'll come. I can help. You're sorry for these bamboo slips and so many beautiful words."

Chen Pingan was a little convinced, stopped what he was doing, and asked with a smile: "Old man, I ask a somewhat offensive question, is it okay?"

The old man shook his head and asked tentatively: "Then don't ask, let's save face as scholars."

Chen Pingan asked: "Does the old gentleman still want to send a few bamboo slips?"

The old gentleman said firmly: "Ask whatever you want."

Chen Pingan wiped his face, feeling like he had fallen into a pit.

The old man sneakily took out a green bamboo slip on the ground beside him, and murmured: "The accumulation of soil forms mountains, and the wind and rain are blowing up. It's really good, but the words are poorly engraved, weak and unsightly, and I still cherish it with my broom." What's more, it's better to give it away and engrave it again"

Chen Ping said helplessly: "Mr., I have good ears and can hear."

The old man looked astonished, "I didn't say anything, how can you hear the young man, are you a fairy on the mountain, you can hear my heart?"

Chen Pingan looked at the old man's expression and his eyes.

The thief is sincere.

Chen Pingan was a little strange, could it be that he was really just an old Confucian scholar passing by.

But this is not surprising, the number of Confucian academy monks in this area is indeed very small compared to Shu Jian Hu Yexiu and the mountain immortal master.

And it can last for more than an hour without revealing the slightest clue. I am afraid that even a gentleman of the academy can't do it. Chen Pingan doesn't think that the sage of Guanhu Academy has this spare time to joke with him.

The old gentleman said regretfully: "It doesn't matter whether people are warm or cold, I hate myself if I don't touch the book."

Chen Ping pretended not to hear.

The old man said angrily, "Young man, your ears were so good before."

Chen Pingan thought for a while, then looked up at the sky, "Old man, I admit defeat, you go pick the bamboo slips by yourself, I have to hurry, but remember which slips you picked, you don't need to tell me, I will I'm afraid I can't help but regret it."

The old Confucian asked: "24 branches"

Chen Pingan nodded, "It can be less, but not more."

The old Confucian scholar hummed, and Lao Huai said with relief: "That's right, young people, you need to be more tolerant, it should be like this long ago, a thousand dollars can't buy an inch of time, look, how much time we have wasted here, No more valuable than a few bamboo slips"

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Yes, yes, the old man is right."

Except for the bamboo slip in his hand, the old gentleman started to get up, and picked out the rest of the bamboo slips he liked, deliberately dawdling.

Chen Ping suddenly coughed.

The old man pretended to be deaf.

Chen Pingan had no choice but to smile wryly: "Mr., including the bamboo slips in your hand, there are almost thirty of them. Since you are a scholar, can you give me some credit?"

The old man suddenly realized, put the last bamboo slip into his sleeve, the old man was standing a little far away from Chen Pingan, said some polite words, and left.

When we got to Shutong, the old Confucian hurriedly urged: "Go, go, go quickly!"

One old and one young, with oil on the soles of their feet, ran fast.

At this moment, Chen Ping'an was roughly sure that he had really met a "superior".

Chen Ping smiled, silently put away all the remaining bamboo slips, then led the horse down the mountain, came to the ancient tea-horse road, and continued to ride slowly on the horse. My son is hiding somewhere and having fun secretly.

Chen Pingan took a nap on the horseback.

Unconsciously.

An old gentleman was leading the horse for him.

The old man smiled and asked: "Chen Pingan, it is a very good thing for a person to build bridges across waters and pave roads across mountains. Is it possible for future generations to walk along the bridges and walk through them?" difficulties in life”

Chen Pingan still didn't know it, but he said slowly from the bottom of his heart: "Mr., I'm just a accountant who is careful with calculations, not a teacher. I don't dare to think so."

Questions and answers afterwards.

"Have you ever conceded defeat in this questioning game?"

"Of course I lost."

"So disappointed?"

"I'm a little disappointed in myself, I'm not doing well enough, but I'm not so disappointed in the world."

"That's it."

After that there was "small talk".

What the old man said was a bit off topic, and he said what he thought of.

"Chen Ping'an" on horseback listened.

"Taoist theory, especially what the Taoist ancestor said, ah, the wisdom of the people has not yet been developed, or the wisdom of the people has been greatly developed. Only the two most extreme ways of the world can be implemented, and only then can they hope to truly become the main line of all learning in the world. Therefore, it is said that home, learning It is high, Taoist Taoism must be unreasonably high, but unfortunately, the threshold is too high."

Chen Pingan was speechless.

That's right

Forget it, let's take it as the old master's own reasoning.Listen, it's not a bad thing, don't talk back, don't say anything wrong.

Chen Pingan didn't want to quarrel with others.

He really didn't have that kind of heart for the time being.

If you have eaten the four cheap and high-quality big meat buns in Lvtong City, you might give it a try.

"The backs of the sages are getting farther and farther away. As a descendant, just follow them and take a look at them from a distance. How would you feel about Chen Pingan?"

"I just feel that Gaoshan Yangzhi, if there is a chance in the future, I should feel honored to walk on the same road with them, even if I just look at the backs of the gentlemen from a distance."

"it is good"

The old gentleman let go of the horse's reins, and the young school boy carrying the burden in the distance behind him was covered in glazed brilliance, illusory and uncertain.

Chen Pingan on horseback continued to ride slowly in the "dream", going farther and farther on the ancient tea-horse road.

The old gentleman stopped on the road, and his figure was also ethereal, like clouds and smoke.

When Chen Pingan shuddered on his horse, he suddenly realized that it was late at night, and one person and one rider had already walked out of the mountain and came to the side of a river.

Dali Dynasty, Yongjia 12th year, vernal equinox.

When spring came, the third big Li cavalry besides Su Gaoshan and Cao Ping entered the battlefield, and the Zhuying dynasty began to retreat steadily on several fronts. It will be dusty, only in the morning and evening.

However, the vassal king Song Changjing did not enter the territory of the Zhuying Dynasty. On this day in the spring breeze, the mighty Mohist mechanism giant boat passed over the territory of the Zhuying Dynasty and continued to head south.

Song Changjing stood on the bow of the main ship, condescending, overlooking the land, there were constantly scattered sword repairs, unwilling to live, rising with their swords, to this huge "fleet" that had never appeared in the history of Aquarius Continent. , launched an attack, and fell one by one without suspense, like the belated sound of firecrackers in the alleys to welcome the spring, and like the wailing of cranes on the mountain, piercing the sky, so that everyone who saw this scene on the earth and heard it The people of Zhu Ying, who were mourning, mourned endlessly.

Song Changjing is still wearing the old fox fur. When Xu Ruo’s branch of the Mohists chose to bet on Dali, they actually did two things. One is to join hands with the Yinyang family to build the extremely arrogant Imitation of Baiyujing, in addition, Dali annexed all the wealth including the Lu Dynasty, especially the "road money" of Lizhu Dongtian, in addition to the seizure of major treasuries all the way south, all used to build these Nandu flying boats , The majestic Dali, these years, the national power is at its peak, but in fact it is not enough to make ends meet every year, even so, it still owes the Mo family a lot, especially when the Mohist main line chooses the Dali, spending money is even more watery, it is not Xiaojiang Xiaohe. It flows with a rattling sound, but it is like the deep flowing water, the water is deep and silent, and there may be no sound, and the treasury will be empty.

For Dali, especially the Hubu, this is a kind of courage and ability. Why does the national teacher Cui Chen look at the Hubu Shangshu with admiration? Even Song Changjing and the entire military are willing to respect the Hubu officials. This is the root cause. Of course, when the iron cavalry went to the household department to ask for military pay, no one would show mercy, crying for father and mother, and pretending to be poorer than each other. Song Changjing saw this and didn't think it was a big deal The question is, in the process of quarreling and quarreling among the civil and military officials of Dali, as well as the younger generation of scholars who joined the army and border children entered the officialdom one after another, the boundaries between civil and military in the Song family temple are constantly blurring. This is a good thing.

As for the Ministry of Industry, which has the closest relationship with the Mohist monks from other places, it is the unavoidable behind-the-scenes hero.

On the contrary, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials, who originally had the highest status, will be more embarrassed once they reward meritorious deeds in the future. That's why the officials of the Ministry of Rites spared no effort to show their faces in the matter of Dali Xinbeiyue, as well as the alliance with the Great Sui Dynasty and the mission to the Great Sui Dynasty. , No way, the farther away the yamen from the battlefield is now, in the Dali temple in the next hundred years, it will inevitably lose its confidence, the voice will not be loud, and it is even very likely that it will be eroded and infiltrated by the other six yamen.

After all, the Yamen of the Criminal Department of Dali has still made achievements in espionage and winning over monks, which should not be underestimated.

Therefore, the Ministry of Rites has made some small moves now, fearing that when everyone is expanding their territory, only they, the most respected yamen of the six major tribes of Dali in the past, will fall behind and fall into the dust and become a Qingshui yamen. One after another, how can we let out the old and bring in the new, and sit firmly in the noble and powerful high position of the first department of Dali, how can we be able to have a new year and a new atmosphere every year

There was only one quarrelsome official left, because the old Mrs. Guan was in charge, no matter how noisy his own people were when they closed the door, they still behaved well when they went out.

Even if the Ministry of Rites is clamoring for the Peace and Peace card, all aspects of recommendation, inspection, issuance, recording and evaluation must be included in the Ministry of Rites, so that the Ministry of Punishment, which was originally responsible for about half of the responsibilities, will be completely delegated. Confused, don't make a statement, just procrastinate, and in the end even the clumsy method of asking for leave due to illness is used. The **** is you, an old man who eats wine and meat, and is stronger than many young and strong officials of the Ministry of Rites. Strong, can catch cold and can't afford to be sick. The old fox is really older, thicker-skinned, and a generation shorter than the old man. The Minister of Rites, even if he is still half of the old man's disciple, it is said that he is so angry that he is in the palace guard. The side complained, saying that the old man also relied on the old to sell the old.

The officialdom in Dali was lively and busy, and there were actually many jokes in all the yamen.

In the first lunar month of this year, Yichi Lane and Chi'er Street in the capital often come and go for New Year's greetings.

Song Changjing is not very concerned about these official matters of "spring river water heating". Under the general trend, it is human nature. As long as he does not go too far, and does not cross the boundary too much, he will not care about it. In fact, he does not need to be a warrior on the battlefield. , to worry about these messy affairs.

Because Song Changjing had to admit that the Dali cavalry was able to go south smoothly and steadily, and the embroidered tiger did a great job.

Another faint rainbow light exploded on the ground, and a young sword cultivator hiding among the mountains seemed to have spotted Song Changjing, a "high-ranking official" barbarian. The sword light drew an arc like a white line, As he stabbed Song Changjing straight, Feijian's spirit was full of grief and indignation as if death was at home.

Song Changjing waved his hand, indicating that the monks accompanying the army who are among the earth immortals don't need to stop them. Is a weak flying sword of a six-level sword cultivator tickling a ten-level pure martial artist?

Song Changjing punched the natal flying sword back to the ground, and it just fell into the ground next to the young sword cultivator. The pale sword cultivator was crumbling, but he still tried his best to stand still, looking at the man whose strength was beyond Imagine the bow man.

The flying boat flew across the sky, and the young sword cultivator no longer had the strength to draw a sword, so he fell to the ground,

Afterwards, the flying boat of the Mo family, like a swarm of locusts, deliberately flew over the top of Nanyue Mountain in the Zhuying Dynasty.

Qianbai Jianxiu, who had a certain death in his heart, met the enemy together with the respected Nanyue deity.

Among the more than ten sword boats in the ferry, flying swords fell to the ground like rain.

In the sky and on the ground, two sets of flying swords meet each other like a curtain of rain. The sword boat and flying sword built by the Mo family at the expense of countless gods, and the flying sword of Jianxiu's natal life are destroyed together.

Occasionally, the natal flying swords slipped through the net, and the Nascent Soul and Earth Immortal monks recruited by Dali natives successively sacrificed magic weapons and smashed them one by one. If the legendary heaven and wonderland.

The golden body of the mountain god, holding a huge sword of sword energy gathered by the unique secret techniques of the royal family, slashed at the ferry where Song Changjing was, but was crushed by Song Changjing with one punch, and another punch smashed the golden body of Nanyue Zhengshen. After being shattered, Song Changjing finally stood on the roof of the Nanyue Temple. Nanyue Zhengshen, who had temporarily lost his golden body, was about to use the accumulation of thousands of years of incense to reshape his golden body and fight against this person again.

Song Changjing said: "It's almost enough. Dali didn't mean to kill you all. The sword cultivators under the earth immortals all went down the mountain. Don't blame the past. Earth immortal monks, those who are willing to surrender can go south with this king, and those who are unwilling to surrender , just stay on Nanyue Mountain honestly, I can guarantee that even if some people settle accounts after the autumn, they will not kill indiscriminately. Most of the things are going to be used as Dali's military expenses."

The top of Nanyue Mountain was silent.

Song Changjing swept away, knocking down most of the main hall of Nanyue Mountain, smashing an earth immortal sword cultivator who tried to link up with the other great sword cultivators and swore to resist the barbarians of Dali with one punch, his body and golden core, leaving only the Yin God And the natal baby with weather attenuation.

If a monk looked up from the foot of the mountain, he would be able to see a fairy family mansion near the top of the majestic Nanyue Mountain, turned into ruins, and dust was raised, like a large cloud of yellow clouds enveloping the top of the mountain.

Song Changjing returned to the temple on the top of the mountain, and nodded to the righteous god of Nanyue standing on the square, indicating the interest of the Nanyue temple, and he, Song Changjing, understood it.

Song Changjing rose from the ground and returned to the ferry.

The god of the Zhuying dynasty, with complicated eyes, finally bowed to the unrivaled Dali feudal king. Many young sword cultivators did not realize until this moment that the mountain formation had not been activated from the beginning to the end. .

Since the god himself was afraid of death, afraid of the severance of the Dao, and afraid that under the stubborn resistance, the entire Nanyue and more than a thousand sword cultivators died tragically. With selfish plans, for example, he, the righteous god of Nanyue, agreed to Jianxiu to climb the mountain, hoping to have an explanation to both the old master and the new master, so that he would not lose the title of Nanyue in this land of subjugation in the future. However, because of today's battle, he can win some praise from the market for himself, and save Dali some troubles, try his best to get rid of the righteous gods of the Five Sacred Mountains, and at least keep the future Dalitou and other mountain gods throne.

In the chaotic world of Aquarius Continent, Zhu Ying obviously had to find a way out for herself.

Song Changjing returned to the bow and put his hand on the railing where the spiritual energy was slowly flowing. The Great Li Nian will soon be changed.

Shujian Lake, Fan's Mansion in Chishui City.

A guest came to visit and handed in a yellow name card, saying that he wanted to see General Guan Yiran.

The concierge dared not neglect.

Today, there are four garrisoned cities, four Dali clans with equal rank and power. Among them, Guan Yiran of Chishui City has gradually improved his status in the past year, and has vaguely become a leading figure. The other three often need to come to Chishui City to discuss matters. , and Guan Yiran never needs to leave Chishui City, a few traces are enough to explain everything.

Even the rumor that Guan Yiran is actually Su Gaoshan's son-in-law riding a dragon has been spread. He has a nose and eyes.

In addition, the concierge always felt that a young man among the visitors was somewhat familiar, but he was wearing a gray cotton robe and had a thin face, so he couldn't recognize him.

Soon the concierge led the three of them to meet General Guan who had an official office in Fan's house.

The three guests all carried a big bamboo box.

Guan Yiran, who had already taken off the armor of the monk accompanying the army, stood under the eaves of a row of simple government buildings, feeling a little surprised.

After waiting for a long time for a drink, it didn't come, but a guy I didn't like very much, Gu Can.

Regarding Gu Can's actions in Shujian Lake, Guan Yiran naturally disliked it. It was not only due to his personal temperament, but also the subtle influence of the Guan family. Life is full of officialdom. Qing, it is a miracle that he was able to survive to this day in such a chaotic situation.But since he is that person's friend, Guan Yiran won't stay behind closed doors.A friend of a friend may not be a friend, but Guan Yiran still wants to give this face.

Now in Shujian Lake, where the main force of the Dali Iron Cavalry has withdrawn, the young Guan Yiran is actually the true king of the rivers and lakes, holding tens of thousands of Yexiu's life and death power, even more powerful than Qingxia Island Liu. Zhimao changed his name back then to be worthy of the name.

Gu Can, who looked calm, Zeng Ye, who was trembling, and Ma Duyi, who was also apprehensive, visited Guan Yiran together.

Both of them walked forward almost at the same time, standing in the courtyard, Guan Yiran smiled and said, "You are Gu Can, what's the matter?"

Gu Can smiled and took out a jug of wine, the sweet-scented osmanthus wine from Old Dragon City, handed it to Guan Yiran, and said with a smile, "Chen Pingan asked me to bring a jug of wine to General Guan, saying that he owes the general."

Guan Yiran didn't refuse, took the pot of wine, just smiled angrily: "The wine has arrived, but the person hasn't arrived, so what's the matter?"

Guan Yiran immediately laughed at himself: "It seems better than when the people arrive and the wine doesn't arrive."

Guan Yiran laughed to himself.

Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi were relieved, it seems that this young and promising General Dali has a really good relationship with Mr. Chen.

Guan Yiran asked suddenly: "Gu Can, do you know why Chen Pingan asked you to deliver wine?"

Gu Can nodded and said: "I know, I want to make a familiar face with General Guan, even if I can't take care of him, as long as General Guan orders wine, then I can return to Qingxia Island with less trouble."

Guan Yiran smiled and said, "You're not stupid, why were you so arrogant and domineering before, caring about your head and ignoring your back?"

Gu Can said frankly: "I used to be ignorant and always thought that everyone was a fool, but now I don't dare."

Guan Yiran nodded and said, "Okay, that's it. In the future, you can find me to accommodate you for minor matters. For major matters, don't come to this government office to make fun of yourself. I really have a mediocre impression of you."

Gu Can nodded, clasped her fists and said, "Gu Can is here to thank General Guan first. I really need to trouble the General with trivial matters. I dare not say anything else. Now that I am in debt, there are too many expenses to spend, but I will still bring a pot of wine. .”

Guan Yiran glanced at Gu Can, nodded without saying a word, "I'm busy with business, so I won't entertain you."

Gu Can said goodbye and left.

Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi turned around and walked out of the Fan's mansion.

Walking on the street of Chishui City, Ma Duyi complained a little, "You are not very old, but you have a lot of official airs."

Gu Can didn't take it seriously, shook her head and said: "Being able to see us once shows that the airs are not big enough. The two major events at the end of this year and the middle of next year will inevitably have to deal with this General Guan. I am happy to come to the official office here, and I can go shopping Yuankui Street with Zeng Ye."

Ma Duyi didn't refuse, but he had lingering fears, "There is too much bureaucracy here, especially the two Dali gate gods posted on the gate of Fan's family. They have bad eyes. I don't want to come here to suffer."

Zeng Ye nodded vigorously, "I also feel that the look in my eyes is not friendly. There is nothing I can do. I am a ghost cultivator. I am surprised that I was not stopped from entering the door."

Gu Can took them to lease a ferry that now belongs to the Dali government. Whether it is a monk or a high-ranking official who enjoys the scenery, he must submit the customs certificate of household registration at the ferry and pass the inspection before he can enter and leave Shujian Lake. This is the new rule.However, if you have a Peace and Peace card issued by Dali, no matter whether it is high-grade or low-grade, there is no need to do so. The ferry can also take the initiative to provide a ferry across the lake for free. , there are only a handful of them, Mr. Tianhu of Sulin Island, the first-class enshrined Yu Hui of Qingxia Island, and the couple of Huangli Island have not had this treatment so far. It can be seen that even a peace card with the lowest rank is so worth it. valuable.

In the near future, two pieces of news have spread throughout Shujian Lake, shaking the Quartet.

One is that it has little to do with Shu Jian Hu Yexiu, but the matter is too big, Emperor Dali died of illness.

Another one is that tens of thousands of Yexiu and more than a thousand islands are closely related. When the shocking truth came to light, Shujian Lake woke up. Why the situation of Shujian Lake in the past two years was so puzzling.

It turns out that Yuguizong, the largest fairy family sect in Tongyezhou today, chose Shujian Lake as the location of the next sect in Aquarius Continent.

So since the beginning of spring this year, the big and small news about Yu Guizong has been flying like a snowstorm.

It's just that for Gu Can, these major events have nothing to do with him.

Chen Ping entrusted Gu Can with the opening of the Luotian Dajiao and the Water and Land Dojo.

In addition to handing over all the ledgers to Gu Can, Chen Pingan wrote tens of thousands of words on the rules and regulations on the two major events, and handed them over to Gu Can.

For this reason, Ma Duyi also teased that Mr. Chen is not a monk or a Taoist.

Chen Ping'an and Gu Can discussed the money needed, and they split it in half.

That's not a small fortune.The little property that Gu Canniang moved away from Chunting Mansion was far from enough.

Gu Can also didn't come out, saying that he would owe Chen Pingan on credit first.

Before Chen Ping left, he sat down with Gu Can to do a good calculation. Gu Can will need at least two more years, including Luo Tian Dajiao and Water and Land Dojo, plus Chen Ping's previous Shihao Country, Plum Glaze Country, etc. Gu Can can only repay half of the debt through experience. After that, Gu Can needs to continue to travel around, and if there is a chance in the future, Gu Can can build a mountain island in Shujian Lake that is suitable for ghosts and ghosts to practice.

The three of them took the ferry slowly to Qingxia Island.

Gu Can stood at the bow of the boat with a bamboo box on his back. The young man who had worked hard to pay off his debts had been carrying the Hall of Hell on his back for more than a year.

It seems lucky to be able to turn into ghosts and ghosts after death, but it is actually a kind of suffering.

Whether it is an ordinary person or a practitioner, he must have had deep obsessions during his lifetime, and he would not let go of the world, but life and death are the laws of heaven, and heaven and earth have their own rules and punishments fall on them. Time flows, 24 solar terms, spring thunder shakes, midsummer Yang Qi, all kinds of invisible winds that circulate in the world, have no harm to ordinary masters, but they are tormenting ghosts and ghosts. There are also morning bells and evening drums in ancient temples and Taoist temples, incense in Wenwu temples and Chenghuang Pavilion, door gods posted in the market, and golden weapons on the battlefield. The aura of the iron horse, etc., will cause varying degrees of damage to ordinary ghosts and ghosts.

Not to mention that there are also genealogy immortal masters who slay demons and eliminate demons, accumulate merit, mountain and wild cultivation, especially those ghost cultivators and evil cultivators, who like to capture ghosts, soul stripping, reshaping, insidious spells, emerge in endlessly, or The art of cultivating Gu, or the secret method, all kinds of catastrophes, it is true that life is worse than death, and death is worse than life.

Of course, Gu Can knew about these things before Chen Pingan came to Shujian Lake, but he didn't take it seriously, and never bothered to delve into it.

Not anymore.

Halfway through the waterway, a Qingxia Island boat came quickly.

Mr. Tianhu floated on the tiny ferry boat that Gu Can was on.

Both Ma Duyi and Zeng Ye thought that Gu Can would not board the building boat, but Gu Can did not refuse Tian Hujun's invitation, and thanked the small ferry boat with fists together, and boarded the huge building boat.

Mr. Tianhu laughed and said Yanyan.

Gu Can smiled and spoke to him.

It seems that there is no grievance, it is still the most beautiful time of Qingxia Island, the pair of senior sister and junior brother.

Mr. Tian Hu joked that our Mr. Chen owed a lot of money. The secret warehouse on Qingxia Island was full of complaints. Magical weapons for ghost cultivation are not small sums.

Gu Can smiled and said something, such a big matter, can wait for Master to return to Qingxia Island, and let Master and the old man decide it.

Tian Hujun suddenly looked embarrassed.

Now in Shujian Lake, almost none of the field repairers believed that Liu Zhimao would still be able to leave the water prison of Gongliu Island alive.

As long as he could leave, Liu Zhimao would have returned to Qingxia Island a long time ago. Why should he wait until now that Su Gaoshan is gone? Just wait for the new lord of Yuguizong's next sect to show up. Everyone believes that Liu Zhimao will die at that time .

Gu Can, who had not worn the dark green python robe for a long time, covered his sleeves with both hands, turned his head to look at Mr. Tian Hu with an uncertain expression, and said softly, "Master, it's not really a fault to do something against your will in order to reach the top of the Dao. But one or two bottom lines are still necessary. I became a monk halfway and became Liu Zhimao's closed disciple. There are twists and turns, intrigues, and mutual use. Everyone in Shujian Lake can see it. Therefore, the kindness of master and apprentice is not my Gu Can's. Bottom line, but senior sister, you are the proud disciple brought out by Liu Zhimao. After various opportunities, Qingxia Island has never treated you too badly. In my heart, in the eyes of Shu Jian Hu Yexiu, and the future monk Yu Guizong's view of you, it will not be any better. Now that I am already an earth immortal monk, I think I can see it better Farther away, after all, there are many rules in Shujian Lake today. The way we used to do in the past is no longer applicable to Shujian Lake now."

Tian Hujun asked softly: "It was Mr. Chen who asked you to tell me."

Gu Can shook her head and said, "It has nothing to do with Chen Ping'an, he can only see what you do more clearly and thoroughly than me, so naturally he won't tell you these things, but after all these years, I still have a good relationship with Elder Sister It’s about love, so this can be regarded as my sincere words. Whether you listen or not is up to the elder sister. Whether you are poor or not, and whether you are light or not, I understand the truth, but I feel that even if you are annoying, you still have to be with Master Sister said something."

Mr. Tianhu sighed, "There is no turning back."

Gu Can smiled, just another Gu Can from back then.

It's a pity that the big sister Tian Hujun didn't meet her Chen Pingan.

As soon as Gu Can thought of this, he began to look into the distance, feeling that the sky is big and the earth is big, even if the future is bleak, there is no need to be too afraid.

The depression in her heart cleared up a bit, Gu Can looked away, and said: "Elder Sister, don't worry, the remaining territory and foundation of Qingxia Island, you fellow seniors, brothers, and vassal priests, even if you fight for it, I can't fight for it." I don't want to fight for anything. As far as I am capable, I can't get a little advantage if I fight with you. It's better to be a good boy and quit voluntarily. Maybe I can ask for a drink with you in the future. , I can’t stay in Qingxia Island for a few days all year round, instead of being wary of me, Eldest Sister, I really might as well go around all the ways.”

Mr. Tian Hu told Gu Can that he was scheming, and his face became more and more unnatural, but Gu Can's words of "heart-to-heart" with her senior sister are better than her skeptical speculation.

It's not that Mr. Tianhu believed in Gu Can's "heartfelt words", but that Gu Can now needs to go to the Fan family in Chishui City to find amulets before entering Shujian Lake, and after boarding the boat, he must use "Liu Zhimao has Maybe you can leave Gongliu Island safely." This kind of wording that no one believes, won a way out for himself, and only then did Mr. Tianhu feel at ease. Losing the loach and Gu Can without Chen Pingan by his side is really useless.

When the boat docked at Qingxia Island, Gu Can didn't say that he was going to Chunting Mansion, but said that he could live in the house at the gate of the mountain and be neighbors with his friend Zeng Ye.

As a result, Ma Duyi monopolized Chen Ping's room and drove Gu Can to Zeng Ye's side.

Gu Can doesn't care.

After getting along day and night, Gu Can doesn't dislike Ma Duyi, who has a knife mouth and a bean curd heart.

Chen Pingan may feel that all the truths of his life have been explained in Shujian Lake.

Gu Can, on the other hand, felt that in his life, he had listened to all the flattering words of other people during those years in Shujian Lake.

After that, Gu Can went to see the ruins of Hengbo Mansion, and stopped outside Chunting Mansion for a while.

It was a beautiful spring day, Gu Can and Zeng Ye Ma Duyi were sitting side by side on small bamboo chairs basking in the sun.

A tall woman in palace attire got off the boat and came slowly.

Liu Chongrun on Pearl Hairpin Island.

Gu Can only knew that Chen Ping felt a little guilty towards the island owner, saying that she owed her some fairy money, so this trip back to Shujian Lake, even if Liu Chongrun didn't come to Qingxia Island, Gu Can would go to Zhuchai Island and tell Liu Chongrun Some things, lest the handsome island master Liu mistakenly think that Chen Ping'an was in debt and ran away.Today's Liu Chongrun is amazing. The strangest thing is that even though Liu Chongrun has shown his true cultivation of the Golden Core and Earth Immortal, he was able to fight his way out. The high-ranking Dali Peaceful card still aroused many speculations, such as whether Su Gaoshan fell in love with Liu Chongrun's beauty or Guan Yiran, a young man with high status, was like a beautiful woman. After all, Liu Chongrun was a Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess who haunted Zhu Ying's imperial family's sword fairy soul.

Of course, Gu Can is well aware that there are no such smoky and charming things, because Chen Ping'an has leaked some secrets. In exchange for the protection of the nothing card, not only was he able to keep all his belongings on Zhuchai Island, but he also reached the sky in one step and became one of the monks enshrined in Dali.

As for whether Chen Ping'an has been a matchmaker here, he didn't say.

Liu Chongrun saw Gu Can standing up to greet him, and asked with a smile, "When will Mr. Chen return to Shujian Lake?"

Gu Can shook her head and said, "I don't know for now, but it's unlikely in the near future."

Liu Chongrun looked normal, nodded, and was about to leave just like that.

Gu Can stood up, followed Island Master Liu, and chatted with her about what Chen Pingan had confessed.

Liu Chongrun was noncommittal and didn't know what to say, so he just left.

Gu Can returned to the small bamboo chair.

As a result, at the ferry, a ghost cultivator from Zhu Xianfu appeared.

Liu Chongrun hesitated for a moment, then stopped, and sighed, "Ma Yuanzhi, have you been entangled for so many years, is it interesting? Do you have such thoughts, why don't you practice hard and strive to become an immortal as soon as possible?"

Guixiu, who purposely put on a simple and elegant green shirt, grinned and said, "His Royal Highness, knowing that Chen Ping'an is not in Qingxia Island, I still have to make this trip, I know it."

Liu Chongrun was a little annoyed, "Go away."

Ma Yuanzhi didn't dare to block the way, so he obediently gave way and let Liu Chongrun go straight to the Zhuchai Island ferry.

It's just that he couldn't control his dog eyes, and sneaked a few glances at the back of His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, which was really good.

Liu Chongrun stopped and turned his head.

Ma Yuan said sternly, "You are looking for death!"

Ma Yuanzhi swallowed, and said aggrievedly: "I'm not worried about Your Royal Highness, after this turmoil, has she become haggard and thinner? I'm finally relieved now."

Taking this opportunity, Ma Yuanzhi glanced at her chest again, the undulating mountains and hills are too beautiful to behold.

Liu Chongrun said angrily: "Dogs can't change shit eating stuff"

Ma Yuanzhi complained: "I don't allow Your Highness the Eldest Princess to spoil me like this. Even if Your Highness steps on me, I have no complaints, but I don't agree to His Highness talking about myself like this. In my heart, Her Highness Eldest Princess will always be She is the most touching and flawless strange woman in the world"

Only then did Liu Chongrun realize his slip of the tongue, and out of embarrassment, he swung out his sleeve and slapped the ghost cultivator straight out of the ferry.

After Ma Yuanzhi stabilized his body and mind, he had mixed feelings, tears filled his eyes, and wiped his face. He only felt that after so many years, he had suffered all kinds of grievances and hardships, and he finally had some compensation. I'm thin-skinned, so I'm sorry to say those love words directly, it doesn't matter, I still understand whether it's beating or scolding or love."

After Liu Chongrun uploaded it, he drove the ferry with immortal skills and left quickly.

It really annoyed that brainless rice bearer.

Ma Yuanzhi nodded, with a bright smile, and his eyebrows became more and more mischievous, "His Royal Highness, you are so shy, but it is a rare thing that never happens in a century. It seems that you really plan to open your heart to me. There is a play, there is definitely a play. Chen Pingan, you just wait." Drinking at the wedding bar is really a good brother If you didn't tell me that when dealing with women, you should think more about what they say. Is it implying that I am a big man, not to be too far behind her? Are you worried that I am already a golden core to His Highness, and I have a grudge? Brother, you are really my great benefactor."

After Guixiu swaggered away happily.

Zeng Ye was a little uncertain about the relationship between Ghost Cultivator and the owner of Zhuchai Island, so he asked in a low voice, "Senior Ghost Cultivator, did you misunderstand something?"

Ma Duyi was nibbling on the melon seeds, and said with a final word: "If I were that Island Master Liu, I would just slap him to death, and save myself from having a face-to-face encounter with those dog eyes."

Gu Can smiled and asked, "Do you think Island Master Liu will like Chen Pingan?"

Zeng Ye thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Improbable, she is so much older than our Mr. Chen, and she doesn't deal with each other very often. After all, Master Liu is a firm Golden Core cultivator, even if Mr. Chen is very Well, I don't think so."

Ma Duyi sneered and said: "It's not surprising that Liu Chongrun likes Mr. Chen, but we, Mr. Chen, don't like a wife."

Sitting on the small bamboo chair in the center, Gu Can laughed loudly.

Ma Duyi threw a handful of melon seeds in the past, Gu Can dodged, and ended up smashing them all on Zeng Ye's head. That's not counting, Zeng Ye had to bend down to pick them up. After all, he has been with Mr. Chen for so long. It's hard to be stingy.

Palace Willow Island.

In the water prison.

The prisoner, dressed in plain white linen, sat cross-legged in a rather spacious prison, with a calm expression.

Outside the prison, stood an old monk from the upper five realms of Tongyezhou. It was the original ancestor of Tongyezong who followed the two suzerains of Taiping Mountain and Fuqi Sect to go out to sea to kill the big monster. Now that he has switched to Yuguizong, he also took away a treasure from the Yuguizong Patriarch Hall, which almost caused a big battle between Tongyezong and Yuguizong.Fortunately, Xun Yuan, the old suzerain of Yuguizong, came to the door in person, and sat down with the suzerain of Tongyezong, the eleventh-level sword fairy, and had a good talk. After the talk, Tongyezong did not continue to pursue it. of.

The old monk's name is Zhou Fenglu, and he is the person who is in charge of the site selection of Yuguizong's next sect. As for whether he is a poor pawn, the key depends on the final candidate for the next suzerain. Fudi's bastard Jiang Shangzhen.

The reason why Zhou Fenglu didn't kill this Liu Zhimao directly was that he wanted to get more credit, so that Yu Guizong secretly supported a small group of high-ranking old guys who were in charge of him, and could persuade those patriarchs who were inclined to Jiang Shangzhen Tang Lao is stubborn, and Yu Guizong's internal affairs are of course not monolithic. For Jiang Shangzhen, a younger generation who has been too popular for thousands of years, many old people have been displeased for a long time.

This is Zhou Fenglu's opportunity.

Once he becomes the first suzerain of the next sect, he will be the first-class official of Yuguizong, who can directly occupy a place in the ancestral hall of Yuguizong's main mountain, and the seats will be extremely forward, maybe sitting next to Jiang Shangzhen I believe that many old guys in Yu Guizong who don't want Jiang Shangzhen's family to dominate are happy to see it succeed. They can not only severely suppress Jiang's arrogance, but also disgust Jiang Shangzhen.

Zhou Fenglu's face was displeased, "Liu Zhimao, this is the third time I've been looking for you, and it's only three things, do you understand?"

Liu Zhimao squinted at him, "We wild dogs, who are despised by your genealogy masters, are used to eating wild dogs, so we can't be domestic dogs."

Zhou Fenglu sneered and said, "Contact Tan Yuanyi proactively and take refuge in Dali Song, it's not the same as being a watchdog."

Liu Zhimao said with a chuckle, "Working for Dali, that's free-ranging, it's better than raising countless captives. Besides, what I don't like the most in my life is your high-spirited Immortal Master Genealogy."

Zhou Fenglu's face was gloomy, "Liu Zhimao, I really thought I wouldn't dare to kill you, a Nascent Soul Earth Immortal. It's a big deal in a corner like your Aquarius Continent, but in our Tongye Continent, it's really nothing. Going to the fifth realm The demise of monks is not rare. Every hundred years, if a few Nascent Souls do not die, Tongyezhou feels embarrassed to say hello to the big monks of other continents. Are you Aquarius Continent?"

Liu Zhimao laughed loudly, "Scare me"

Zhou Fenglu shook his head, "I'm really not trying to scare you, a person's patience is limited."

Liu Zhimao twitched the corners of his mouth, "Don't you know that we wild dogs have been frightened again and again for a lifetime of practice. If we are frightened a lot, we will either be scared out of our wits, or be like me, a ghost in the middle of the night. Knocking on the door, I have to ask, are you here to do business with me? Why, you are already the suzerain of the next sect of Yuguizong, you can tell me whether I am alive or dead, and take a step back, even if you become the suzerain, Shouldn't you be more careful about how to make the best use of a Nascent Soul wild cultivator? If one day I suddenly get enlightened and agree to be your offering, wouldn't it be a big loss for you to detain me? How can you be the suzerain even if you don't understand the account of a few immortal money?"

All the acupoints of Liu Zhimao's body were entangled and restrained by the veins of the water prison, especially the key acupoints for warming and nourishing natal objects, which were even blocked by the water veins of Gongliu Island. He yawned, "I really thought that you outsiders could Doing whatever you want in Aquarius Continent is just so patient with you. I think your suzerain throne can’t sit firmly. It’s worse than me, the lord of Shujianhu Jianghu. Before the chair is hot, you have to get up quickly and give up your seat obediently Let's go. I really don't believe that the fat water doesn't flow into outsiders' fields, Yu Guizong is willing to give such a big piece of fat to half an outsider."

Liu Zhimao actually began to teach this old monk with amazing combat power and a treasure in his hand, "I really didn't say that you are immortal masters, but you, you only say that you have a tough heart, which may not be comparable to our wild cultivators. Isn't it just relying on those superior Taoisms and sect inheritances to walk the road unimpeded? Give us those Taoisms, even if we all start from the earth immortals, both sides spend the same time, Yexiu promises to get you Hit shit. If you don’t believe me, try it out anyway. You’ve betrayed Tongye Sect anyway. The tattered patriarchal hall’s rules and regulations are a fart. Why don’t you teach me the immortal technique of Tongye Sect that goes straight to the upper five realms? You dare"

Liu Zhimao in the cage laughed unscrupulously.

Talking and laughing.

He is full of heroism, and of course there are some rogues.

Zhou Fenglu shook his head, "Liu Zhimao, I hope that when we meet next time, you will be able to speak so forcefully when you become the suzerain."

Liu Zhimao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, even if you become the next suzerain, we can still chat. We, Shan Ze Yexiu, have no strength of character, and we like to play with the wind."

Zhou Fenglu remained silent and left the water prison.

This book Jianhu Yuanying Yexiu really couldn't eat dog meat, couldn't kill it, and couldn't eat it. Zhou Fenglu made up his mind that as long as he became the next suzerain, he would kill Liu Zhimao on the same day and would not talk nonsense with this Yexiu.

After Zhou Fenglu returned to his mansion.

Liu Laocheng, the real owner of Gongliu Island, went to the bottom of the dungeon, and along the way, monk Yuguizong pretended not to see him, neither saying hello nor trying to stop him.

There are three basic water veins in Shujian Lake, and the water transport is thick. The remaining water veins are numerous but slender, fragmented and messy, and are divided up by the remaining thousand island forces.

One of them is monopolized by Gongliu Island, and the water prison formation is the foundation.

This is also the key to easily suppressing Liu Zhimao.

Qingxia Island has also stolen most of the water veins, and Hengbo Mansion is the eye of the formation, but it is a pity that it has been destroyed, and the water transportation has been dispersed, which has made it easier for the land immortal monks on the vassal islands, such as Tianhu Jun and Yu Hui.

The three big islands of Qingzhong, Tianmu and Lisu share together the last fundamental water vein of Shujian Lake.

After Liu Laocheng reached the bottom of the water prison, he immediately isolated a small world.

Liu Zhimao raised his head and frowned.

He wasn't very afraid of that Zhou Fenglu, but he was still very afraid of Liu Laocheng, the senior of Shujianhu.

Because Yexiu is always the most familiar with dealing with Yexiu.

On the contrary, the immortal master genealogy was confused for a while.

Liu Laocheng took out a scroll, shook it lightly, and spread it out gently. From the scroll, a smiling man walked out.

He walked to the prison, put his hands behind his back, bent down and squinted at Liu Zhimao, and asked: "I heard that you and Chen Ping'an are both enemies and friends. I'm vague, and I won't talk about him, but I just listened to what Liu Laocheng said. You both recognize each other as your half-confidant.”

This time it was Liu Zhimao's turn to be confused and didn't answer the question, "You are Yu Guizong Jiang Shangzhen"

The man smiled and said: "You answer my question first, and I'll see if I want to answer your question. Come first, come first. You still have to talk about the rules."

Liu Zhimao glanced at Liu Laocheng. On Zhou Fenglu's side, Liu Zhimao roughly knew Zhou Fenglu's bottom line after two previous "discussions", so he could procrastinate again and again, but facing this situation, it was very likely that Jiang Shangzhen and Yu Guizong In my family, Liu Zhimao felt a little heavy for a while, and he didn't dare to speak casually. After thinking about it, he nodded and said: "Chen Pingan and I will never be friends. There might be another fight. But for now, Chen Pingan and I are half confidants, so we can be regarded as, back and forth, we even had a few drinks."

The man clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Based on this, Xiao Liu, plus the old Liu behind me, the three of us will be friends on a grasshopper from now on."

Liu Zhimao looked at Liu Laocheng again. The latter's face and mood were all calm, and he didn't give Liu Zhimao any reminder.

The man smiled and said: "You guessed right, I am that Jiang Shangzhen, the suzerain of the Yugui Sect who came belatedly."

The man suddenly wiped his face, miserable and distressed, like a woman complaining: "My heart is bitter, Zhou Fenglu, that stinky and shameless thing, almost ruined my good deeds, if Li Fuqu was not smart enough, I would fight now I'm going to beat that Zhou Fenglu to death, and then hold the old thief's head to bow down and apologize to others. Thinking of this, I want to run to give Li Fuqu a few good kowtows right now, admit it It doesn't matter if she is a godmother."

Jiang Shangzhen beat his heart lightly, with a sad expression on his face, he cursed loudly: "I, Jiang Shangzhen, didn't come to Shujian Lake to wipe my butt. The top priority is to reminisce with Chen Ping'an. Now, let's make fun of my words. Zhou Fenglu, an old bastard who has more than enough success than failure, death is not a pity, I just set up a few tables for banquets at Tongyezong, but now I am my own person, and I am still cheating me like this, with sinister intentions, damn it, really damn"

Liu Zhimao was dumbfounded.

Liu Laocheng's eyelids trembled slightly, obviously he had learned from Jiang Shangzhen, he was better than Liu Zhimao who seemed to be struck by lightning.

Jiang Shangzhen suddenly restrained his words and smiles, remained silent for a moment, and asked softly: "Liu Zhimao, let me ask you a question on behalf of Zhou Fenglu, would you like to be an enshrinement to the next sect of Yuguizong?"

Liu Zhimao hesitated.

In an instant, Liu Laocheng nodded slightly to him.

Liu Zhimao took a deep breath, nodded slightly, "Yes."

Then he found a verdant willow leaf just hovering between his eyebrows.

Jiang Shangzhen snapped his fingers and said with a playful smile: "The person who knows the current affairs is a hero, Liu Zhimao. From now on, you will be the third seat enshrined by my next emperor, Liu Laocheng, Zhou Fenglu, Liu Zhimao. But I hope you After entering the upper five realms, if you can help me kill Zhou Fenglu, no matter what method you use, I can promise you right now that Zhou Fenglu will lend you the Jade Guizong’s mountain-restraining treasure, which the next sect can use for a hundred years. As long as you have enough credit in the future, it will not be difficult to borrow another hundred years. But if you are killed instead of killing someone, no wonder I won’t collect the body for you.”

Liu Zhimao asked: "The matter of entering the upper five realms"

Jiang Shangzhen stretched out a thumb and pointed at himself, "I'm just rich. After you get to know me well, you won't be able to help but pity me. I'm so rich, it's really worrying."

Jiang Shangzhen lamented, "Don't say it's your clinking poor wild cultivators in Aquarius Continent, even our genealogical masters in the upper five realms of Tongye Continent don't know the troubles of having money like me, it's very annoying. "

Liu Zhimao looked at Liu Laocheng again. Are you really not worried about cooperating with this kind of person? It’s really not a boat ride with Zhou Fenglu, it’s more secure

Liu Laocheng was expressionless.

I don't know if it's unfathomable, or I'm scolding my mother in my heart.

Needing to know about money is really the heartache of all Yamazawa Nooshu in the world.

At the end of spring.

The night is deep, and there is a secluded place in Shujian Lake, and everything is silent.

There was an old gentleman standing by the lake, waving his sleeves, and took out twenty bamboo slips. The characters on the bamboo slips were shining with gold, shining like the immortal moral writings of Confucian sages through the ages, competing with the sun and the moon for glory.

The bamboo slips fell into the lake of slips of letters.

24 bamboo slips, 24 solar terms.

In the entire Shujian Lake, there were only a handful of three people who felt emotionally, and all of them felt palpitations.

Jiang Shangzhen, Liu Laocheng, Zhou Fenglu.

But even if the three of them flew into the air almost at the same time and looked around, they still couldn't detect the slightest clue.

But in fact, the old master was right under their noses, but even the three upper five-level monks still couldn't see him.

On the other hand, Liu Zhimao, a prisoner who has not left Gongliu Island, thought of one thing for no reason.

Zhujian Lake was originally an ordinary place with little aura. There was a Confucian sage who traveled here from the Middle Earth.

The old master stood by the lake and said with a smile: "Everyone in the world thinks this is a cesspit, but some people say that you are heroes of heaven and earth, and you are still awe-inspiring in the future, so what do you think?"

The lake water is rippling, and there is a sense of righteousness through the ages.

The old master smiled and said: "My old master, I don't want you to thank that little master. He doesn't need it. Scholars do things like this, not in business. So I just want you to sacrifice your life for righteousness and die again in the future. Together with me, don’t disappoint this world that still has salvation.”

The old master smiled again: "Of course, that young man also said that he is not a scholar for the time being, but just an accountant, so we can discuss what we should do next."

A fairy family ferry in the middle of Aquarius Island.

At the beginning of summer this year, a young man in green shirt stopped while leading his horse.

At the age of 17, I went to Shujian Lake and spent the New Year's Eve alone in the house at the gate of Qingxia Island.

In the following year, on New Year's Eve, at an inn in Shihao Country, I had a night chat with Zeng Ye and Ma Duyi around the stove.

Another year, on the horseback to meet Zeng Ye Ma Duyi, in the bumps, leisurely, spent the New Year's Eve alone.

Another year, I went to the mountains south of Shujian Lake. On the way back, I had a New Year's Eve dinner with Gu Can, Zeng Ye, and Ma Duyi, which was enough to fill a table.

This year, at this very moment, after walking on the ferry together with the horse, Chen Ping touched the jade hairpin on his bun. Before he knew it, he had already reached the so-called year of reaching the crown in Confucianism.

Then on the fifth day of May, Chen Pingan originally planned to order a table of sumptuous dishes from the Xianjia ferry, but he regretted it temporarily, and still took out dry food and wine, stood on the window sill, looked at the sea of ​​clouds, and celebrated for himself Birthdays, and even crowning ceremonies have also been dealt with. After all, there is only one person in the family, and there are no elders or ancestral temples, so there is no need to pay so much attention to red tape.

Just swallowing the last sip of dry food and wine, Chen Ping just hiccupped, and he had already put away the sword, and felt that the sword fairy behind him suddenly sank, as if it had changed from a few kilograms of weight to an instant. It was so heavy that Chen Ping'an staggered backwards and fell to the ground with his sword.

Just a moment later, the sword fairy in the sheath was still lifeless, without any movement, Chen Pingan tried to sit up, nothing unusual.

Chen Pingan was a little puzzled, afraid of some calculation or mystery, sat at the table, drew out the sword and celestial sword, and looked at it for a long time, and there was nothing strange about it.

Chen Ping thought it was this sword fairy playing tricks. After all, in the past six months, it has often been stubborn. For example, once imitating that sword fairy, "Yu Jian" went to the sea of ​​clouds to enjoy the sunset, and it actually cared about itself. He ran away, causing Chen Pingan to fall straight into the sea of ​​clouds. If it wasn't for the 15th day of junior high school, he would have suffered a lot. He was just fighting with a half-immortal soldier, how could he make sense.After that, Chen Pingan didn't dare to go to the sea of ​​clouds to see the scenery.

At this moment, the Immortal Sword came out of its sheath clangingly from behind Chen Ping'an, so that the entire Immortal Family Ferry shook, and it hovered a foot above the floor.

It seems that Chen Pingan is actively invited to step on it.

Chen Pingan squatted down and discussed, "Don't play tricks."

The Sword Immortal remained motionless.

Chen Pingan hesitated for a while, and bargained: "If you leave me halfway, I may not be able to catch the ferry, and you will pay me for the fairy money."

The sword fairy swished back to the scabbard on Chen Ping's back.

No longer talk to Chen Pingan.

Chen Ping rubbed his chin. Thinking of cheating an old man of 24 bamboo slips on the mountain, he nodded and said, "I almost got caught again.
