Sword comes

On the other side of the high platform in the middle of the lake, the old fairy made a strange trick again. Using four yellow paper talismans, he transformed into four beauties.

Then let the well-prepared house servants bring the guqin, piano table, chess pier and chess box, as well as the big book case and a dazzling array of four treasures of the study.

Ordinary people, it is firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, celebrities are romantic, of course they are piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, their fingers do not touch the spring water, and their sleeves are cool.

The old fairy pointed to the woman sitting quietly in front of the chessboard, and clasped her fists and said loudly: "Is there any Go master in Yanzhi County, as long as he wins her, he can take away the chess pieces worth thousands of gold and two boxes of chess pieces."

There are no cheap items in this house.

Of course, the things that dare to be presented in front of a rich man in the county are absolutely extraordinary.

Caiyi Country’s Rouge County has a strong literary style, and there are many hand-talking masters who are keen on playing chess. Soon, an old man in green clothes got up and walked to the high platform in the middle of the lake. When the old man showed up, some chess players who thought highly of themselves If you are an expert, you can only sit down obediently. From this, it can be seen that the old man in Qingshan must be recognized as the No. 1 chess player in Yanzhi County.

The old fairy and the old man in the green shirt nodded to each other, and the latter went straight to the chess pier and took a seat. With a handful of white stones, the chess player transformed into yellow paper smiled faintly, bent down and picked up two black stones, and it turned out that the old man went first.

The cheers immediately resounded by the lake.

As one of the few Yilin national players in Caiyi country, the old man in green shirt is the pride of Yanzhi county. It is reasonable for the spectators to applaud him. Of course, his family is helping his family.

Then the old fairy pointed to the two women sitting in front of the desk, pointing to the one on the left, "I heard that the governor of the county is worried about something recently. The newly built temple still lacks a couplet. After she finishes writing, will she use it or not?" , Lord Sheriff is well-known for his brilliant articles, well-known in the government and the public, and has a unique vision, so you can read the content before making a decision."

The magistrate stroked his beard and nodded and smiled, reserved and pleased.

The old god looked at the military general sitting next to Junshou Liu in the waterside pavilion, and said with a big laugh, "General Ma is a warrior with outstanding achievements on the battlefield. The people outside Fang also admired her so much that they deliberately asked her to make a fool of herself and draw a picture of a bow covered in snow for the general."

The general drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, laughed wantonly and said: "If the painting is good, it can really paint the vast atmosphere of the battlefield. On the day the old fairy leaves the city, I, Ma, will personally see the old fairy off for thirty miles."

The old god thanked the general first with his fists in his hands, and finally walked to the piano platform, slipped out a stick of incense from his sleeve, inserted it into the empty brass incense burner, and lit it with his own hands. The incense mist curled up and the purple air lingered.

Nodding to the woman playing the piano, the latter smiled sweetly and began to lower her head to prepare her emotions.

When the melodious and ethereal sound of the piano sounded, the minds of hundreds of listeners were relieved.

In the wild and ancient times, saints made pianos to correct the sound of the world.As the saying goes, the qin is used to restrain adultery and correct people's hearts.

In the verandah, the bearded man was eating melon seeds, and said, "There are so many tricks, but it's just lukewarm, and it's almost meaningless."

He doesn't pay much attention to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and lacks interest. He still prefers to watch women dancing swords, beauties in colorful clothes and girls in white clothes with twisted waists and faint buttocks are the beautiful scenery he likes to see.

Scholar Liu Gaohua is also a chess idiot, he is very curious about how the old man in green shirt is talking with that woman, he only regrets that he is a worthless eunuch's son, he has no chance to go to the high platform in the middle of the lake to see it with his own eyes.

Taoist Zhang Shanfeng was really in a hurry. He waited and looked around, but Chen Pingan didn't show up. He couldn't really fall into the latrine, so he didn't care about people's eyes. He told the two of them and got up to find Chen Pingan.

The old fairy stood with his arms folded, with a calm smile, appearing unfathomable. He took the scene by the lake into his eyes, and knew that most of his plan had been completed.

On the side street, Ma Kuxuan took out a porcelain bottle, poured out two silver elixirs, threw them into his mouth, and said helplessly, "Master, you are very haunted."

It seems that during this trip to the rivers and lakes, the master was watching in secret, which made Ma Kuxuan very helpless. He roughly understood the temperament of the man around him. Road to the dark.Ma Kuxuan has never been guilty of anything. An ancestor of Zhenwu Mountain who taught the secrets of the military and gave him the magic weapon, explained the sect rules to Ma Kuxuan. Except for the order of the master of the mountain, the rest of Zhenwu Mountain is not the real rules. , but the lord of Zhenwu Mountain has been in seclusion for a hundred years, so he has become more loose and casual.

The man said nothing.

This trip down the mountain was to escort Ma Kuxuan to find the trouble of the head coach of the Haichao Cavalry, which involved the death of Ma Kuxuan's grandma, and the dynasty of the Haichao Cavalry happened to fight a deadly enemy. All the gods used it, and the other side also dispatched a Zhenguo ox. It turned out to be a waterside iron ox used by immortals to suppress Dadu water transportation in ancient times.Haichao Iron Cavalry was severely damaged in this battle, Ma Kuxuan sneaked into it, assassinated three middle-level generals in one night, and walked away.

Afterwards, Ma Kuxuan said that he wanted to venture into the rivers and lakes and sharpen his body with the sharpening stone of the rivers and lakes. The man did not refuse, but he still secretly followed him in case of accidents.

Ma Kuxuan stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, exhaled heavily, put his hands on the back of his head, and asked, "If, I mean, if Chen Pingan has a chance to kill me, Master, will you kill him?"

The man finally spoke, "I dare not kill him, and I don't want to kill him."

I dare not, because someone once went to the Dali Palace and caused heavy losses to Feijian Baiyulou, and that person obviously has a close relationship with Chen Pingan.If this is the case, as time goes by, there will still be people who are ready to move, but they did not expect that after the ascension, the sword cultivator of the upper five realms would return to the human world so soon. One punch back to Haoran Tianxia, ​​but to put it bluntly, who in the world is qualified to receive a full blown punch from the second son of the Dao?

No, it's because the man has a good impression of Chen Pingan. If it weren't for the sect's rules, he felt that the young man from Niping Lane, who had realized the true meaning of boxing early on, would actually be more suitable to be his disciple.

It is just that accepting Ma Kuxuan as a direct disciple is a sternly worded decree issued by the suzerain during the crucial retreat period. Zhenwu Mountain must treat it seriously, and there must be no mistakes. Otherwise, when he leaves the seclusion, he will be held accountable. Time.That's why Zhenwu Mountain sent him to Lizhu Cave, and in the process of fighting for Ma Kuxuan with the golden boy and jade girl of Shen Gaozong, the man never backed down, even a little aggressive, appearing extremely rebellious.

However, men are regarded as Ma Kuxuan's nominal master, which is actually right or wrong. Buddhism has lecturers, ascetics, monks who teach the Dharma, monks who protect the Dharma, etc., and his real identity is a guardian. The guardian of Wushan disciple Ma Kuxuan's road trip.As for Ma Kuxuan's path, whether it is consistent with his or not is not important.

The man suddenly said: "But you can kill Chen Pingan, the premise is that you can do it."

Of course, this is not that the man is instigating people's hearts, but is stating a fact.

Ma Kuxuan sneered and said: "Why can't I make a thing that is close at hand, how many magic weapons are in it, others don't know, but you don't know, master."

The man laughed: "You have it, others don't"

Ma Kuxuan grinned, with disdain on his face, "Even if he has it, he can compare with me to the golden body immortal slough of Zhenwu Mountain's ancestors, let alone the two heroic spirits in my body sitting on the soul, which is the most lethal Sword cultivator, as long as he has not entered the middle five realms, let him stab me thousands of times with his flying sword, and he can hurt me a little."

The man asked: "Then why don't you use it, insist on beating people so badly?"

"Compared to the small fights on Zhenwu Mountain, this fight is much more interesting. I am not willing to rely on the magic weapon of bullshit to let that guy lose to death. This is not my temper, and I don't want to bully him like this Chen Pingan. So I want to defeat him thoroughly at the place where he thinks he is the strongest. Isn’t he a pure martial artist? Does he have an innate advantage in physique? , Master, you really treat me as a prison, because you don’t know the weirdness of Chen Pingan’s punch.”

Ma Kuxuan smiled and said, "I know, otherwise, at the earliest time, I would not deliberately bypass Chen Ping'an to avoid his edge. But when I think back, I will bypass the martial arts of the three realms. In the future, the six realms, the Jiujing Mountain Great masters at the peak, or even masters like Song Changjing, even if I have an advantage in the realm, do I still have to go around?"

"So what's your answer" asked the man

Ma Kuxuan looked back, the master and the apprentice walked a long way, and they were about to reach the gate of the city. The figure of the boy carrying the box had long been lost. It depends on the situation and decides whether to bypass their strongest opponent, as long as I win in the end. But that guy, no way, I just want to fight fiercely with the physique of a five-level Qi trainer and a three-level martial artist."

The man is noncommittal.

Ma Kuxuan frowned and asked: "Why is Chen Pingan's physique in the three realms so tough? Although I haven't done a good enough job of tempering my physique, I still spend more effort on recruiting the ancestors of Zhenwu Mountain, but my so-called is not enough. Well, compared to myself, how did Chen Pingan have such an unreasonable physique?"

The man shook his head and said: "Everyone has a chance, all the good things in the world cannot be taken by you Ma Kuxuan alone."

Ma Kuxuan sneered and said, "As long as I can see good things and good things, I, Ma Kuxuan, should have them all alone."

The man laughed it off.

There are many truths that are not explained, it is not that Ma Kuxuan did the right thing.Aside from many compliments, it is not that Ma Kuxuan did not do well enough.

Daoist guardians only need to ensure that the people they escort will go higher and farther, and they must not die halfway.

And Ma Kuxuan is destined to go very high and far.

As for how far he can go, who can stand side by side with someone in history, many big figures behind the scenes in Aquarius Island are actually waiting to see.

As he walked, the black-clothed boy covered his belly with one hand and his cheek with the other, cursing, "It really hurts!"

Chen Pingan breathed a sigh of relief, not letting his spirit relax, and then looked around for the so-called assassin. There was no trace of the body on the street, so he had to scramble up to the wall, bow his waist and run, and suddenly stopped. , falling down, just below the wall where he and Ma Kuxuan were facing each other, there was a pool of ashes, inside which lay a small white bowl and a small piece of ebony that looked like charcoal. Chen Pingan did not approach, and stood Looking intently at the spot, the outside of the small and exquisite white bowl is painted with the true shape of the Five Sacred Mountains, but Wu Mu couldn't see it.

The assassin should have been beheaded in an instant by the military monk, and then burned to ashes by the secret method of Zhenwu Mountain. It's just that the man deliberately left two treasures that the assassin kept with him, and didn't destroy them together. Is it possible that this is what he expressed The way of apologizing Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment, then went to squat down, picked up the piece of ebony that was not more than a foot long, it was extremely heavy, weighing eight or nine catties, then picked up the small white bowl, twisted the small bowl with his fingers, and stared at it carefully. , the five mountains painted by the white bowl, look at the names, if Chen Pingan remembers correctly, it should be the picture of the Five Mountains of the ancient Yu Kingdom.

It is not difficult for Chen Pingan to guess the identity of the assassin. Most of them are the subordinates of the Chu family scholar in the ancient house. In the man's words, even the emperor of the ancient Yu Kingdom would be equal to him. In order to replace death, he even put down cruel words, asking him to trouble Chen Pingan. Later, Yang Huang, the ghost, talked about his wife's female elm core. This is very simple and clear. It is the incarnation of a piece of ancient elm, and the second is the female elm core of the female ghost of the ancient house, so the tree fairy used the word "continuously".

Since it was the relic of the enemy of the enemy, Chen Pingan took it with peace of mind, not only that, but also complained that the assassin's family background was too thin, why didn't he even carry dozens of snowflakes with him

Chen Ping put the light and small bowl and the heavy ebony together into the square-inch object. He couldn't walk, so he staggered out a dozen steps and came to a thick apricot tree by the wall. He leaned his back against the wall and sat down slowly. Next, take out a clean shirt from Feijian Fifteen, and carefully wipe off the blood.

You can't tell people that you went to the latrine, and then you ran back covered in blood, not to mention that the bearded man and the young Taoist priest would become suspicious, and the whole veranda might be booed. On such a lively day today, Chen Pingan didn't want himself to Become the focus, and I don't want to cause trouble for Liu Gaohua.

Chen Ping's ability to bear hardships and pains does not mean that this feeling is good. He fought to the death with Ma Kuxuan in the circle, and Chen Ping's internal organs were seriously injured. Now he just wants to sit like this without thinking about anything. Over there, the curtain had not yet come to an end, the applause continued, and the view was blocked by a corridor and crowded spectators. Chen Pingan couldn't see anything here, so he had to look up.

The old apricot tree next to him has a big crown and luxuriant branches, and the apricot blossoms are in full bloom, occupying all the spring breeze.

People are so different.

Also from a small town, Ma Kuxuan doesn't care about things that he doesn't care about, such as others calling him a fool and stepping on his shoes, but when it comes to things that he cares about, Ma Kuxuan can't see anyone better than him.

Liu Xianyang would directly choose to give up on things that Chen Pingan did better than him, such as making bamboo bows, making tricks, and so on.

Gu Can, the slug in Mud Bottle Lane, wished that Chen Pingan could do better, so that he, Gu Can, would just have to follow behind and get his hands dirty.

Of course, in addition to natural temperament, these are also related to distance and closeness.

Chen Pingan took off the sword-raising gourd and took a sip of strong wine, which made the burning feeling in the Qi Palace in his body worse, but the world is so strange, Chen Pingan, who was obviously in pain and grinning, wanted to drink more. No longer gulp down the alcohol, just sip it. For a shy alcoholic, distiller's grains are delicacies in the world, not to mention the shochu in Chen Pingan's wine gourd, which tastes very good.

Today's battle in the small street, there are a lot of grievances, and even more joy.

Although Ma Kuxuan was still in charge this time, the two barely drew a tie, but Chen Pingan never paid much attention to the outcome, just like A Liang said, don't die, you have to live first to live well .Chen Ping felt that A Liang's words were really rough and unreasonable.

So Chen Pingan picked up the wine gourd, raised it high above his head, shook it, then froze for a moment, with a sad face, and took back the wine pot resentfully, so that all the bold words that were about to be blurted out were swallowed back.

It turned out that the wine was gone.

Chen Pingan lowered his head and pinned the wine gourd on his waist. He suddenly remembered something, and he had a connection with Feijian Fifteen. Soon there was an embroidered bag in his hand. When he opened it, there were three pieces of peach blossom cake inside. Chen Pingan lowered his head and sniffed it. , not bad at all, the square inch is really amazing, after such a long time, the pastries are still almost as fresh as when Luoluoshan took over.

Chen Pingan held the bag with one hand, picked up a piece of pastry with the other, put it in his mouth, chewed it carefully, leaned his head against the wall, and looked up at the tree full of apricot blossoms.

After eating a whole piece of pastry, I was reluctant to eat it again, so I carefully wrapped it in an embroidered bag.

Chen Ping'an was all smiles, thinking that the peach blossom cake from his shop was delicious

His first thought was to let Miss Ning have a taste, imagining the scene of the next meeting, Chen Pingan laughed at himself for a while, then suddenly slapped himself, "You are stupid."

Without Wei Bo's well-made medicine bucket to soak in, Chen Ping'an's current recovery speed is simply the difference between Yujian and walking. However, after a short rest, there is no obstacle to normal walking. Just when Chen Ping'an was about to get up and return to the veranda seat , There was a sound of sparse footsteps in the distance, one deep and one shallow, most of them were men and women.

Chen Pingan thought for a while, then chose to continue sitting at the foot of the wall, covered by the apricot tree, and just waited until they left before leaving.

But something happened that stunned Chen Pingan. The man and the woman seemed to be from the Caiyi country. They talked in Aquarius dialect, and when they reached the dimly lit apricot tree, they began to hug each other. Angrily, the woman politely refused, wanted to refuse but still welcomed it, the man was thick-skinned, he gnawed at the woman's face like crazy, he probably didn't keep his hands safe.

Chen Ping'an was a little restless, what should I do? He reminded the pair of wild mandarin ducks that they still hoped that they would leave the place as soon as they were good.

It's better not to join in this kind of excitement, if someone notices, it will really be yellow mud in the crotch, it's either shit or shit.

Chen Pingan hesitated for a while, but decided to get up and coughed.

The young woman on the other side of the apricot tree screamed and hid behind the man.

The man walked around the apricot tree with big strides, stared at Chen Pingan with a blurred face, his eyes wide open, he saw that he was a thin young man with a short son, and he immediately became courageous, "Don't be afraid, this is waiting for your beauty!" The flower picker, even if he kills me, I will not leave you behind, anyway, he wants to take advantage of you, so he stepped over my dead body."

The woman was about to cry, she didn't know whether she was afraid or moved, she leaned her shoulder on the man's broad and warm back, and murmured affectionately: "Liu Lang, you are so kind."

Chen Ping was stunned on the spot, not angry, but just dumbfounded, thinking that the two of you were also hit by a bull's tail when you were young.

It's not a problem to be stalemate like this, so Chen Pingan found an excuse, pretending to be shy and said: "Young master, miss, you may have misunderstood, I came here before you, because it was the first time I entered the house, I didn't know the toilet. Where is it, I have to"

I never thought that the man would yell loudly, "You are a disciple, a flower picker, and you haven't tied up your belt. What are you doing? Disgusting or not, there are people like you who are obsessed with sex in this world!"

At the same time, he didn't forget to comfort the woman with a pale face behind him, "Miss Liu, just hide behind me, don't let this kind of guy dirty your eyes."

In the end, the man secretly winked at Chen Pingan, full of complacency, and looked like he wanted to be beaten, as if it was full of "I'm going to come here today to save the beauty, just strike while the iron is hot, take down this little girl, I have the guts to beat you!" me"

Chen Pingan looked at him.

A handsome young man with a slender figure and a face like a crown jade, a typical frail scholar.No wonder the bearded man often said that there are not many good scholars, and there are not many ladies and Xiaojiabiyu in the world who are not blind. They even look down on him, Xu, and they all like those sick people. scholar.

Then Chen Pingan stepped forward, walked in front of the scholar in an instant, slapped him, and fell to the ground sideways, and passed out.

The young woman stood there with her mouth wide open, her eyes glazed over, she wanted to scream, but she dared not. Liu Lang, didn't he really become a pair of desperate mandarin ducks? But in the book of a gifted man and a beautiful woman, shouldn't his parents object, all kinds of ups and downs, ups and downs, but in the end it must be the end of all hardships, a beloved man and a beautiful family? Is there no book that says The beautiful scholar will be beaten to death by the bandits.

Chen Ping strode away, knocked the sword box on his back, and didn't look back.
