Sword comes

This rain contained an unusual gloomy evil spirit. After Chen Pingan said it out, the key to the two groups of giants in the grottoes to die down was not the earnest words about not walking narrowly, or even Chen Pingan's hand-picking talisman. , but only in one sentence, "The old gods of Jingui Temple have not yet made a move."

This means that Jingui Temple is either plotting before moving, showing the enemy's weakness, and leading the snake out of the hole, or it is invincible and can only shrink back to the Taoist temple to avoid its edge.

No matter what the reason is, even if there is some passion for this kind of fight between the gods on the mountain, the woman from Yanzhizhai from Yunxiao Kingdom is still unwilling to put her wealth and life into it. The old devil, Zhu Fengxian, is a mature and prudent person. This time, he climbed the mountain to build a ladder for his granddaughter to practice Taoism and ascend to the sky. Jin Guiguan can take advantage of the opportunity to recruit a proud disciple. Both parties just get what they need. The Daze Gang is not a dwarf. Zhu Fengxian was not happy to serve as a pawn for Taoist Taoists on the Golden Summit.

When Chen Pingan returned to the original place, Pei Qian dug out a small stone slab out of nowhere and used it as a small bench for Chen Pingan. He squatted on the ground and wiped the dirt vigorously with his hands, while raising his head and comforting him, "Master, you are still very handsome Yes, there are some flaws in the final stage, but they can be ignored."

In the end, I said that I often watched Lu Baixiang play chess with others, and I learned it by ear and eyes. I got along with the four of them day and night. Pei Qian still learned a lot, such as the old Wei's battle tactics, "fighting on the battlefield, what? The words Long Snake Formation and Longmen Formation are nothing more than six characters of fixed rows and columns, vertical and horizontal, and in the end, each of them depends on his ability to kill and chop at will."Learned some rules of piano and chess from Xiaobai, and learned a few ways to serve wine and side dishes with Zhu Lian. Seeing that she often fights with her and is hardworking, Zhu Lian gave Pei Qian a novel about knights in the rivers and lakes. Pei Qian forgot to eat and sleep, and asked Sui Youyou a lot of slang words for walking in the rivers and lakes, such as "If you want to live from now on, keep the money you bought for your life", "Boldly cut the thieves and eat me with a gun" and so on.

Zhang Shanfeng glanced at the rain curtain outside, worried, and said softly: "Such a heavy rain, it has been raining for such a long time, even monks in the Sea Watching Realm may not be able to hold it, unless the rain-inducing array has been set up long ago, but If this kind of handwriting is really drawn by the formation, rather than its own Taoism, it is just throwing snow from the sky to the ground for fun, so the possibility of monks in the Longmen realm is more likely. I don’t know what kind of realm the Taoist priests in Jinguiguan are. Qi practitioners, can you cope with the rain that affects the luck of the mountains and rivers in this area?"

Zhang Shanfeng's voice is not loud, but both Zhu Fengxian and the old woman from Yanzhizhai are martial arts masters in the Jianghu. If you pay attention, you can hear it clearly. It's not bad, I must know the level of the master's immortal family skills."

The old woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "It is said that Guan Zhuanguo is two hundred years old, and he is the Dragon Gate Realm who looks like a dragon in the clouds and calls the wind and rain."

Zhu Fengxian frowned and said, "Isn't it the fact that Zhang Guo has been in seclusion for decades and has become one of the legendary land gods after successfully exiting the seclusion?"

The old woman smiled wryly and said: "The earth immortal who formed the golden core, how detached from the world, and why does he accept apprentices to practice, and just point to the Dao. If it is the old master Zhu, he has become a fairy guest, and he is willing to live in the muddy pond." Picking up money in the mud means that there is really gold and silver in the mud. We people in the rivers and lakes are rare, and we have to bend down to feel it in the mud. Will the gods on the mountain be rare? There is no need for the leader to doubt, it is only a matter of time, your granddaughter will worship Zhang Guo as her teacher and practice in Jingui Temple, her future will not be bad."

Zhu Fengxian nodded, his expression improved slightly.

Zhu Fengxian, who is a martial artist of the Seventh Realm, would be afraid of Longmen Realm monks, but he would never be afraid of them. He has already counted the number of Cave Mansion Realm and Sea Viewing Realm cultivators who died in his hands.

But Zhu Fengxian is willing to pay enough respect to a Taoist priest in the Longmen Realm who is expected to be a Jindan Earth Immortal in the future, and he is already qualified to be his granddaughter's preacher.

Every year, the Daze Gang will take out a sum of filial money and send people to secretly send it to the Golden Osmanthus Temple in Qingyao Mountain.

Zhang Shanfeng sighed in his heart, it's not that the people on the mountain don't know what's going on on the mountain, the gods in the eyes of Zhu Fengxian and Yan Zhizhai's old woman are too high to jump into the void and not stick to the mud. It is the world's largest bottomless pit of selling gold.It's just that most of the earth immortals, except for Shan Ze Yexiu, who is used to being casual, and the big monks who own the cave at the top of the mountain, don't need to handle common affairs by themselves. However, the old woman from Yanzhizhai barely guessed half of it right.

At this moment, in the deep mountains under the rain curtain in the distance, there was sudden lightning and thunder, the earth trembled, the wind and rain swayed, and there was a loud roar like a lion's roar, one after another.

After a while, the vision stopped, and there was only this rainstorm left in the world.

After about a stick of incense, the three people on Sui's right side in the grotto, Zhu Lian and Zhu Fengxian looked up at the outside of the grotto almost at the same time.

Zhu Fengxian looked as usual, but his heart tightened.

Among the followers of the young immortal master, there are actually two people who have a keen intuition not weaker than their own.

You must know that you are one of the four great masters of Qingluan, Qingshan, and Yunxiao. Although the battle with the immortals 30 years ago broke the foundation of martial arts, after 30 years of healing, you still have not recovered. The great master is at the bottom, but a tiger never falls. He, Zhu Fengxian, is far from downcast, but he has retreated from the second to the fourth place, and he is still a well-deserved great master.

This grand event of Buddhism and Taoism for three consecutive years has attracted many monks who hide their heads and tails. It is true, but there are only a handful of top masters in the world. Jing Wufu has a flimsy foundation, and if he really wants to divide life and death, he can't stand the punches of the four of them.

Why did this chance meeting in the mountains suddenly appear so many other than the beautiful woman with a sword, the seemingly approachable old man with a stoop, the handsome man with a sword, and the taciturn and tough man, all of them are clearly the same. A master of rivers and lakes with extremely hard ideas, this is the only reason why Zhu Fengxian admired Chen Pingan from the beginning to the end.Clouds follow dragons, winds follow tigers, if the young immortal master is of the generation of snakes and cats, how can he subdue these martial arts masters?

The heavy rain gradually subsided.

In the rain curtain, many young Taoist priests and little Taoist boys came together. The Taoist priest Jingui who went first had a face like a crown of jade and a charming smile. The Taoist priest in front had nothing else in hand, and the oil-paper umbrella he put away after entering the grotto was graceful and graceful, which was different from the aristocratic aristocrats of the aristocratic family. The rain has ruined my view of the mountains and rivers in Jingui, everyone, don’t panic, our temple master and two close friends who came from afar have put away their magical powers, you can rest assured to follow me to climb the mountain, the group of monsters have given the first subjugation, and no one has escaped the law.”

The old woman from Yanzhizhai quietly glanced at the young girl "Qingcheng". The old woman's eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement. Earlier, when the old woman saw the thunderous thunder, she had already had some lucky guesses, and her mood was agitated. Qingcheng, who has high hopes, will never have any accidents happen this time to learn from a teacher. At this moment, when he heard the handsome Taoist priest confirm that "the Lord's best friend came to help", the old woman thought of the fairy face on the hanging portrait that her ancestor's grandmother treasured. Time was full of mixed feelings. Before the grandmother died, when she was dying, she and a senior sister held both ends of the scroll and spread the scroll so that she could take a last look at the man in the portrait.

This time they worked tirelessly to escort "Qingcheng" up the mountain to practice Taoism. Everyone was overjoyed.

A handsome Taoist priest with an elegant temperament, said with a smile: "These oil paper umbrellas, the umbrella surface is just ordinary, but the umbrella handle is made by our predecessors in Guannei. In the mountains and lakes, or walking alone in the graveyard at night, holding our Taoist osmanthus umbrella, you don’t have to worry about evil spirits invading. When you encounter this umbrella, they will retreat and flee. The master is worried that there are family members who have never practiced martial arts in your team. Women and children, let us go down the mountain to deliver umbrellas."

More than a dozen osmanthus umbrellas, a specialty of Jinguiguan, were given away.

A little Taoist boy with red lips and white teeth saw his only peer Pei Qian early on. When his uncle sent him an umbrella, he immediately ran to the little girl Heitan.

Pei Qian didn't care about the small broken umbrella of Jinguiguan, but Chen Ping'an was next to her, so she still had to talk about the "teacher's rules and family law", so she politely declined Xiaodaotong's oiled paper umbrella, and then honestly talked to that little guy Thanks.

Xiao Daotong was a little worried, and said that this rain should not be underestimated, it is the most likely to hurt people's yang energy, people with weak health, and people with unfavorable fates will fall to the root of the disease at once, and taking medicine will not work at that time, anyway, this The umbrella is lent to you by their Taoist temple. They don’t accept money, why don’t you take it, take it, the osmanthus umbrella handle, and it’s not heavy.

Pei Qian only hated himself for not being able to roll his eyes.

Looking at the cute little Taoist boy who explained the severity of the rain to Pei Qian, Chen Pingan smiled, rubbed Pei Qian's head, asked her to accept the oil-paper umbrella, and then looked at the handsome Taoist priest, "This Taoist priest Chief, I heard that Guiguan is accepting disciples this time, I don’t know if those of us outsiders who happened to meet can go up to the mountain to watch the grand event, and bother me.”

The handsome Taoist smiled and nodded, "Of course, after climbing the mountain, you only need to get a booklet and pay attention to some Taoist taboos recorded on it."

Xiao Daotong immediately turned his head and shouted to the handsome Taoist priest: "Uncle, I have memorized the contents of the booklet by heart, or let me explain it to this young master."

The handsome Taoist smiled and said: "If the young master is willing to listen to your noise, you can climb the mountain with the young master."

Chen Pingan clasped his fists and thanked the Taoist Priest Jingui, one big and one small, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Taoist priest, thank you, little Taoist priest."

Chen Ping turned to look at Xu Yuanxia and Zhang Shanfeng, who nodded slightly, indicating that there was nothing wrong with climbing the mountain to enter the temple.

After making up her mind, Xu Yuanxia was even more delighted. The Golden Osmanthus Temple closed its doors all the year round to thank visitors, making it impossible for outsiders to appreciate its charm. There are rumors at the foot of the Qingluan Mountain that the celestial maidens scattered flowers and osmanthus seeds all over the ground in Baishui Temple. The source of those golden osmanthus is It is the thousand-year-old osmanthus trees behind the osmanthus temple, and a wandering immortal came down to the Taoist temple, pointed to the osmanthus trees, and said in a golden voice: "It's also in this month."

The yellow earth cow didn't even enter the grotto before. After all, it was born as a monster. This time, it encountered another accident. The monks of the Taoist temple may not be suspicious. Dispute, told Chen Ping'an from the distance of the grotto with his heartfelt voice, that it was waiting in the ground under the mountain recently, unless the earth fairy patrolled, it would not be easy to find its whereabouts, so Chen Ping'an asked it to be careful, and if there was a situation, just run up Qingyao Mountain, He will come forward and make it clear.

The Taoist temple is on the top of Qingyao Mountain. The road is muddy and difficult to climb. From the foot of the mountain to the gate of the Taoist temple, the widest part of the path is only for three people to walk side by side. There is no need to expect a carriage to pass. This shows that Jingui Temple is really not willing to deal with the mountain. .

Chen Ping'an and the others went to the Qinghu Palace in Qingjing Mountain and built a full [-]-level red ladder, which is even more magnificent than the red wall of the emperor's palace.

The Jingui Temple is not big, but it can accommodate forty or fifty Taoists to practice. Those people from all walks of life who brought their juniors to climb the mountain invited people to build thatched huts on the mountainside of Qingyao Mountain as a shelter. , and is itself a Jianghu faction of the Qingluan Kingdom, seeing that Jin Guiguan is easy to talk, he simply hired dozens of young and strong people on the mountainside, and broke ground to start construction.

Jingui Temple is an uncommon jungle temple, but according to the chatting words of the handsome Taoist priest, the property of the Taoist temple does not belong entirely to the orthodox French lineage where it is located, and when the temple master accepts disciples, he will get Qingluan at that time. The golden and jade genealogy issued by the imperial court of the country, as long as you enter the temple and advocate the fruit family, not the kind of Taoist priests who simply live in Jingui temple and practice, even if you are naturalized and become a genealogy master, I am afraid that this is a wealthy and powerful family. The fundamental reason for flocking with the younger generation at home.

Only those big Taoist palaces will be equipped with three capitals, five masters and eighteen heads. Jin Guiguan has no more than four or fifty people. Naturally, they don’t pay so much attention. Except for the main and fruit of the temple, there are only five or six heads including deacons and Kutou. They are handsome. Taoist Xu Borui is the drum head of Jingui Temple. After all, no matter how small the Taoist temple is, bells and drums are still indispensable.

If it is said that the largest children and grandchildren temple in the world, there is no suspense, it must be the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion in the Divine Continent of Zhongtu.

Zhang Guo, the old god of this Taoist temple, took in disciples in the day after tomorrow. Zhu Fengxian's Daze Gang, as one of the largest local snakes in Qingluan Kingdom, had already built a large building on the mountainside at a cost of more than [-] yuan. The "Summer Palace" of the two is extremely eye-catching among many buildings. It seems that Zhu Fengxian has never doubted that his granddaughter was selected.

Yan Zhi Zhai also hired people to build a unique courtyard garden, but the Taoist priest Xu Borui said bluntly: "Liu Qingcheng and Zhu Ziyang, the two of them can enter the temple together with the poor Taoist priest. Jingui Temple has already cleaned up two elegant rooms."

Then Xu Borui smiled and said to Chen Pingan: "The Taoist temple is simple and the hospitality is not good. There are only two houses left. If you want to live alone, you can go up the mountain with the poor road. If you don't want to be separated from your friends, there is no other place." But live, Pindao can come forward to help you say hello to some acquainted Qingluan nobles, and stay for a few days, it's not a big problem, but it's a good thing to get married."

Zhu Fengxian laughed loudly and said: "Why does Daoist Xu need to be so troublesome, just ask the young master and his party to live with me."

The old lady of Yanzhizhai also wanted to invite Chen Pingan and his party, but it was a pity that they were all women and needed to avoid suspicion.

When the mountain rain stopped, Chen Pingan asked Xu Borui if he could go to see the osmanthus tree in the Taoist temple today. Xu Borui laughed and said that he was all right, but he needed to lead the way and he was not allowed to walk around in the Taoist temple.

So Chen Ping took Pei Qian, Zhang Shanfeng, and Xu Yuanxia to continue climbing the mountain together, and the four of them followed "Old Devil of Qingluan Kingdom" Zhu Fengxian to his residence.

Xiao Daotong likes to get close to Pei Qian, holding a large oil-paper umbrella in his arms.There is no way, the Taoist temple is his youngest, and the rest are mostly old antiques, and there are not a few teeth left when they open their mouths, or it is a serious Taoist priest like Xu Borui, who can finally meet someone who can chat Of course Xiaodaotong was extremely excited for his peers.

Pei Qian was a little impatient, how could there be such a chirping little sparrow on the stall? Shouldn't the monks on the mountain look like blind, dumb, and deaf people?

Liu Qingcheng, a girl from Yanzhizhai, and Zhu Ziyang, the granddaughter of Zhu Fengxian, after leaving the sect and the protection of their elders, the former shrank a little, while the latter was not afraid of anything, and had been confirming with the Taoist Xu Borui the truth of some rumors about Jinguiguan. Xu Borui should have a gentle personality. People who were born in this world answered one by one, without embellishment, and without concealment, which made Zhu Ziyang feel good about Jingui Temple.

Liu Qingcheng plucked up his courage, and softly asked the round-faced girl from the Daze gang: "So you don't call yourself the evening?"

Zhu Ziyang patted his forehead, "How can you be such a naive quack?"

He didn't directly say that the oval-faced girl was stupid, it was already Zhu Ziyang showing mercy.

From the corner of Zhu Ziyang's eyes, he caught a glimpse of Liu Qingcheng's delicate dagger on his waist, with the bamboo scabbard inscribed with "Min'er", and asked with a smile, "Your dagger looks pretty, let me have a look."

Liu Qingcheng shook his head, and said timidly: "This is the relic of my great patriarch grandma, and it cannot be handed over to others casually."

Zhu Ziyang was still entangled, Liu Borui smiled and said: "Zhu Ziyang, don't force others to make things difficult. If you are practicing in the same sect in the future, you must also pay attention."

Zhu Ziyang had a good impression of this handsome Taoist priest who was one of the direct disciples of Guan Zhangguo, and he might soon be his "senior brother" in Jingui Temple, so he let go of the soft-tempered Yanzhizhai aunt who was beside him.

Liu Qingcheng gave the Taoist a grateful look, and the latter just laughed it off.

Chen Ping looked at the two young girls who were about to become cultivators on the mountain, and he naturally remembered the encounter in Caiyi Kingdom. A young girl with a bell was a gas trainer who once fought side by side with Chen Ping, fighting against demons together. Although the morality is not high, she is not a waste of help. She is a very chivalrous girl, and later she became the envy of others.There is also the brother and sister in distress that Chai Fang met for the first time. Now the two children should be considered half practitioners.

The world is mysterious, between drinking and pecking.

When they arrived at the Taoist temple, Zhu Ziyang and Liu Qingcheng, two lucky girls, were taken to the cave by the Taoist priests, while Xiaodaotong and his senior brothers went to place the osmanthus umbrellas. These items are very precious. If they are willing to sell them to the people at the bottom of the mountain, I will listen to Mr. Xu. The sky-high price that can be sold for several thousand taels of silver is worthy of the "Moon Palace" osmanthus twigs that were cut off from the ancestral osmanthus tree. The little boy's daydreams are endless, one osmanthus umbrella handle is so valuable, and the six osmanthus trees are sold at a discount Well, my own Qingyao Mountain can't be turned into a big mountain of gold and silver

Xu Borui alone led Chen Ping'an and his party through the small quiet Taoist temple, went to the back door, and went straight. After the rain and the sun cleared, the vision was clear and wide. You could already see the tall and ancient osmanthus trees with lush branches and leaves , the one in the middle is particularly towering.Every old osmanthus tree has its own name, and Xu Borui introduced them one by one. What kind of witty words did some high-level people say under which tree, Xu Borui told them one by one, concise and funny.

Between the osmanthus trees there are criss-cross bluestone roads. Under the shade of the trees, there are stone tables and benches. The stone table under the ancestral osmanthus tree was carved into a chessboard by the Taoist temple. Xu Borui stayed here for a while and wiped it with his fingers. The chessboard on the table, said with a smile that this chessboard is not carved with a knife, but a sword fairy from a foreign land who has traveled here. After making gestures, I found that there is no slight difference between the horizontal and vertical distances, so the sword fairy must be at least an Jindan swordsman, and may even be a Nascent Soul sword fairy who was not born in Aquarius Island.

Speaking of this, Xu Borui was in high spirits, and said with a smile: "A long time ago, there was a senior in our temple who insisted on asking the truth. He traveled thousands of miles and made a special trip to Fengxue Temple, Zhenwu Mountain, Zhengyang Mountain and Fenglei Garden to find out who he was. A sword fairy, met with many famous sword cultivators, and finally came to a conclusion, it is very likely that it is Li Tuanjing, Li Dajian, the leader of the Aquarius Island Nascent Soul in Fenglei Garden. It is a pity that after returning to the Taoist temple, the senior has no heart. Returning to Fenglei Garden and confirming this matter, it has become an unsolved case for a hundred years after that."

Chen Pingan joined in and said: "I once saw Master Li's sword in Fenglei Garden through the picture scroll of the fairy family on a ferry. , I don’t know if Fengleiyuan can find the reincarnation of this sword fairy so that he can return to the mountain gate to practice and continue the incense and Taoism.”

Xu Borui was surprised and said: "Li Dajian Xian, has already passed away."

It seems that Jingui Temple has been a bit out of touch with world affairs in the past hundred years.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "I heard that this is the case, but what is the truth, Li Dajian's cultivation is as high as the sky, I dare not jump to conclusions, maybe he is looking for an opportunity to break the bottleneck of the Jade Realm."

Liu Baqiao in Fengleiyuan is one of Chen Pingan's few friends on the mountain.

Liu Baqiao once used his sword to chase Chen Pingan's ferry for the sake of the fairy Su Jia, and the two met once.

Therefore, Chen Pingan knew that Li Tuanjing's solution to the soldiers was absolutely true, but as Liu Baqiao's friend, of course it was not easy to speak conclusively to outsiders about such an important matter, and he used knowing the inside story of this matter as a way to show off and talk about it.

However, Chen Pingan, who is used to seeing people in small details, suddenly found that Xu Borui's eyes changed slightly after he casually said "Jade Raw Land".

Only then did Chen Ping realize that not all qi practitioners knew the names of the upper five realms, and even all their lives they just looked up at the word "Earth Immortal".

This is the same as when Zhu He firmly believed that the end of martial arts was the top of the Nine Realms, and there was no possibility of going up.

However, Chen Ping's current state of mind no longer cares much about such innocuous mistakes. Traveling in the rivers and lakes, making grievances with pure warriors, or climbing mountains and enjoying the scenery and dealing with Qi practitioners, if you really want to just keep it and keep it to the extreme, it may not be the case. Good thing, some similar leaks may save a lot of trouble.

After seeing these immortal osmanthus trees in Jingui Temple, the tour of the Taoist temple came to an end. Xu Borui sent Chen Ping'an and his party outside the mountain gate again, and solemnly invited them to come here to watch the ceremony the day after tomorrow, and he would help arrange seats.After thanking Chen Pingan, he went down the mountain to the mountainside and walked more than a hundred steps. Xu Yuanxia glanced back at the Taoist priest who had not turned around and entered the Taoist temple, and was still watching them leave. He is a caring person, and he will definitely do well in Jinguiguan in the future."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "The fairy family's mansion on the mountain needs a person who treats people well."

Zhang Shanfeng felt a little sad.

Apparently he thought of his master's school, wandering outside for several years, after all, he missed his master's drunken nose and thunderous snoring.

If he hadn't met Chen Ping'an and Xu Yuanxia, ​​I am afraid that this celestial master with a surname outside Longhu Mountain who has not yet entered the genealogy would have returned to Beiju Luzhou sadly.

When they arrived at the mansion compound built by the Daze Gang, there was already a shrewd and capable manager who had been waiting at the gate for a long time, bent slightly sideways, and led Chen Pingan and the others to their residence.

After Chen Ping'an and his party settled down separately.

Behind the Golden Osmanthus Temple, in a secluded house deeper than the osmanthus trees, Xu Borui stood respectfully in the courtyard.

The corridor under the eaves is extremely wide and clean, and there are three pairs of wooden clogs and boots under the steps. An old Taoist with immortal demeanor is exactly Guan Zhangguo, a monk in the Longmen Realm.

There are also two distinguished guests who "acted out of righteousness" and suppressed unruly people. In fact, they both had intersections with Chen Ping'an.

Jiang Yun, a burly young man, and Wei Liang, the governor of Qingluan Kingdom.

At the moment, the three of them were sitting around a table, each eating a bowl of plain noodles, spring bamboo shoots, mountain mushrooms, several kinds of wild vegetables growing in the spring forest, oil gluten, and noodle soup made by fire, the fragrance was pervasive.

After Xu Borui expressed his general impression of Chen Pingan and his party, the viewer Zhang Guo smiled and asked the disciple to step back and rest.

The old Taoist asked: "Is it a coincidence, or did they follow the clues to find it?"

Wei Liang thought for a while, "Coincidentally, if Xu Borui didn't have a big face, these people should have blocked my house."

Wei Liang turned his head to look at Jiang Yun, "Looking at the change in your expression before, it's hard to know this person."

Jiang Yun nodded and said: "It's a local from Lizhu Dongtian. It's the first time I met him. He was still an ordinary citizen. After all these years, the world has been turned upside down. I almost didn't recognize him. He's a nice person, but I guess he's involved in a lot of things. I met him at Fengweidu before, so I didn't dare to chat with him."

Wei Liang smiled and said, "Since he is a native of Lizhu Cave, it's not surprising at all."

Jiang Yun has no objection to this.

Outsiders like him who come to the door looking for opportunities with gold, fine copper coins, are actually still inferior to a certain local who is waiting for a fortune to fall on his head.

However, he is one of the lucky ones among the outsiders. It is a great unexpected joy to be able to take away the dragon lock and refine it into a natal object. With Master's cultivation base, he is still shocked and very happy, and said with a smile I might have taken a lot of luck from the Yunlin Jiang family to be able to make such a great fortune.At that time, the iron chain hanging from the hole in the well was caught by his eyes. After he got it, the master specially asked a friend to help him identify it. He concluded that it was at least a precious relic of the Great Cultivator in the Immortal Realm. It is already a genuine Half Immortal Armament.

It is rumored that the highest rank of this kind of dragon-locking rope is called dragon-slaying rope, and its power is even more exaggerated than the Dragon King basket that can imprison and capture the ancient earth fairy dragon. As long as the big monk throws it out, he can easily tie the dragon and easily With a flick, Jiaolong could be skinned and cramped on the spot, leaving only a spine and a Lizhu.

However, the biggest opportunity for Lizhu Cave Sky does not lie in these "dead things".

But those five little things are not something anyone can find by digging three feet, they can only depend on their lives.

Jiang Yun didn't even see one side of them.

Veteran Taoist Zhang Guo put down his chopsticks and patted his stomach, "I've been bigu for many years, in order to entertain you two first-class guests, I made an exception once, and it feels good."

Zhang Guo squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "Governor Wei, Jin Guiguan spent so much effort this time, it opened the door to accept apprentices, and deliberately revealed the secret of my ancestor's osmanthus tree, which can refine half-immortal soldiers, so that the unruly Mixing it all together, they closed their doors and beat dogs, and helped your Qingluan Kingdom kill more than a dozen foreign monks. Emperor Tang didn't say anything."

Wei Liang smiled and said, "Yes, I am sitting here eating a bowl of plain noodles."

Zhang Guo stretched out his finger and pointed at Wei Liang, "The patriarch of the Taoist temple was right. No wonder Iron Rooster wanted to pass on the message that Young Master Jingui should deal with your governor's mansion."

Wei Liang had half a bowl of plain noodles left, and he had already put down his chopsticks, but the burly young man took the bowl over. Wei Liang ignored this, and said to the temple, Zhang Guo: "You are satisfied. At the beginning of the Jingui Temple, there was no incense. Who is it?" Please invite Li Tuanjing to come here to eat vegetarian noodles and this time, Mr. Jiang from the Yunlin Jiang family, you Zhang Guo invited a bowl of broken noodles, even if you bring it to others, Jiang Yun is willing to pick up the chopsticks "

Jiang Yun buried her head in eating the noodles, not giving Wei Liang a lot of face, "A pair of chopsticks is enough, just a few more bowls of plain noodles."

Zhang Guo laughed out loud, in a good mood.

In my impression, the Yunlin Jiang family's children are taller than the other. This young monk named Jiang Yun is different. Since he and Wei Liang are walking together and have a close relationship, he should not be a small branch of the Jiang family. Origin, which is a bit interesting.

Wei Liang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Zhang Guo, that little girl from Yanzhizhai, please take care of her from now on."

Zhang Guo smiled playfully, "The paper cutter on the little girl's waist should be the object you gave to a female patriarch of Yanzhizhai back then."

Wei Liang sighed.

Zhang Guo didn't make progress, these mortal love and hatred, in fact, every middle five monks will have some, looking back, it's just a fleeting moment.

It depends on whether the monk misses the past or not.

In the early years of the grievances under the mountain, when one of them became a fairy family, the situation would be very complicated.

Cultivators hold grudges, grievances and grievances are still fresh for a hundred years, often there will be some wealthy families in some places, and disasters will fly inexplicably, and a disaster without reason will often be wiped out, leaving no one behind.

If a monk reads love, then a dozen generations of descendants of a certain mountain person may have been able to quietly enjoy the grace of their ancestors, and they may not even know why they can escape every calamity. There is a big hand sheltering them from the wind and rain.

Zhang Guo said: "Among them, the little girl with the best aptitude is the little girl from Daze Gang, the granddaughter of Zhu Fengxian, who is now a Qi practitioner of the Three Realms. She should be the only one with the aptitude of Earth Immortal. It's the little girl from Yanzhizhai's Dongfu Realm, and it's hopeful to watch the sea, so apart from Zhu Ziyang and Liu Qingcheng, among the other seven people, I don't think there is any one in the Middle Five Realm."

Wei Liang and Jiang Yun said in unison: "Not necessarily."

Zhang Guo's eyes lit up, "Which one is it?"

Wei Liang smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Yun raised his head, but also did not give an answer, but changed the subject and asked: "That monster of the genus of the cow, don't you care about it, didn't you want to take it under your command a long time ago, so that it can serve as your youth?" The Mount of the God of Beiyue in Luan Kingdom"

Wei Liang shook his head and said: "Forget it, when it comes to chance, we can only follow the trend. A twisted melon is not sweet. In fact, the God of Beiyue told me a long time ago that this scalper looks docile and harmless, but in fact it is fierce. Longmen Who would be willing to be confined to a mountain top and be ridden by a mountain god for the rest of his life, and enter the divine way? This is a fate that will never turn over. Once its ferocity is aroused, it is estimated that it will be a disaster for Beiyue Shanshui rather than a blessing .”

Zhang Guo tutted and said: "If this monster can sit on the poor Qingyao Mountain, it will be a good thing for mutual benefit. The big deal is that the two sides are on equal footing. Jin Guiguan regards it as a mountain guard. Governor Wei, you think it is feasible."

Wei Liang still shook his head, his eyes were deep, and he reminded with a smile: "That Chen Ping'an, you'd better not provoke him, after this person leaves Lizhu Cave, he is very likely to become a disciple of a certain legalist master. You should be aware of the behavior style of our legal disciples. On the mountain and on the mountain, everyone is treated equally."

Zhang Guo said with a helpless face: "I see, the four thorny ghosts on the mountain, the bullshit sword cultivator, the Mohist credit knife man, the Taoist master sword room, and the last one is your most unreasonable Legalist disciple."

Wei Liang smiled and said, "We're not being reasonable."

Zhang Guo felt a little guilty, and suddenly smiled and said, "Then why didn't you, Commander Wei, reason with that yellow bull monster?"

Wei Liang said indifferently: "The legal principles of the world are people-oriented."

Inside Chen Ping'an's house, Pei Qian was copying books.

Zhang Shanfeng practiced diligently in his own room next door.

This young Taoist priest from Luzhou in Beiju claimed to have mediocre qualifications. Back then, his master just took pity on him because he had nowhere to go, so he pinched his nose and accepted him as a closed disciple, and his subsequent practice path also proved his master's vision Not bad, Zhang Shanfeng's progress is indeed slow, and he has not successfully entered the fifth stage yet.It's just that Zhang Shanfeng has a tenacious heart and has never been discouraged. The occasional loss is just because he is not good at his ability to subdue demons. In this matter, his attitude is exactly the same as that of Chen Pingan. Comparing people, we can't talk about talent is good or bad, but we can walk firmly and steadily.

The so-called innate talents of Qi practitioners are very particular, and the mystery is all in the word "innate". The caves opened by each person are different in size, which determines the amount of spiritual energy that can be accommodated.In addition, there are also differences in the speed of absorption. On top of this speed, there is also a difference in the degree of refining the essence of spiritual energy, whether it is a pitiful stream or an amazing river.After that, you are qualified to pay attention to the atmosphere of the pill room and the appearance of the future Nascent Soul.

Chen Pingan now often practices the awkward posture of the Tiandizhuan, supporting the ground with his fingers, but after practicing boxing for so long, Chen Pingan has also figured out some tricks, such as practicing three postures at the same time in Shaking Mountain Boxing, and walking six steps in the posture of Tiandizhuan , and then pinched the sword furnace formula with one hand, during this period, the sword energy circulated eighteen stops.

There is no other world.

It’s just that there is a price to pay. Chen Ping’an often goes astray when he “walks” on uninhabited mountain trails.

Later, it was Pei Qian who came up with a stupid way to tie the top of the walking stick with a rope and tie it to the sword-raising gourd around Chen Pingan's waist. Pei Qian walked ahead and took Chen Pingan with him. Walk pile.

One big and one small, walking back and forth like this, they are truly like-minded people.

At this time, Chen Ping roughly drew a circle around the table, stood upside down and "walked".

After Pei Qian finished copying the book, he read Chen Pingan's Heaven and Earth Pile countless times, and Pei Qian still found it interesting no matter how he read it.

Chen Ping turned around and took a deep breath.

From Old Dragon City to Fengwei Ferry, and then to Jingui Temple in Qingluan Kingdom, after being "sworded" by Du Mao's sword-swallowing boat, he slowly recovered from the strength of the three realms to the current four realms, which is far from the peak of the five realms. , but also relying on walking piles and small refining medicinal wine, it took a lot of time to cultivate.

But in this way, there are advantages and disadvantages. Of course, the disadvantage is that it greatly delays the speed of reaching the sixth realm, and the advantage is that the foundation of the fifth realm will be strengthened.

Zhu Lian once half-jokingly said that even without relying on external objects, as pure warriors, Chen Pingan could still use his peak of the five realms to securely beat the four of them at the peak of the six realms.

Sui Youyou scoffed at this, but Lu Baixiang agreed with it.

As for the boring gourd Wei Xian, he was busy talking nonsense with Pei Qian at the time.

Chen Pingan sat back at the table, checked what Pei Qian had copied, and after confirming that she hadn't messed up any words, she signaled that she could play.

Pei Qian said quietly: "Master, I think the osmanthus trees at the back of the Taoist temple are far inferior to the laurel leaves and osmanthus twigs that Aunt Gui gave me. They are so far behind. Why are those Taoist priests still talking about it as a treasure? It is planted in the middle of the moon, if this is the descendant of the osmanthus tree in the moon palace, then our aunt Gui must be a fairy living on the moon, right"

Chen Ping's heart moved slightly, and he said: "Don't talk about others behind their backs."

Pei Qian snorted.

Chen Pingan suddenly laughed to himself, "I think you are right."

Pei Qian smiled brightly, "Master thinks so too, so I'll just say it."

Chen Ping suppressed his smile and warned, "So next time you see Aunt Gui, you should be more polite."

Pei Qian nodded and said, "Of course, I really like Aunt Gui."

Chen Pingan joked: "Where is the little Taoist boy who borrowed your umbrella from Jinguiguan?"

Pei Qian punched the table and said angrily: "This guy is very annoying. If I meet him on a narrow road, I will beat him until his parents and teachers don't even recognize him."

Chen Ping smiled and said: "Now that you know I'm tired, think about it, how did you pester Wei Xian and Lu Baixiang?"

Pei Qian's eyes widened, and after thinking about it for a long time, he had to take out the most beloved pagoda demon talisman, stick it on his forehead, and sighed: "In this way, old Wei and Xiaobai are very pitiful."

Chen Ping threw a chestnut at him, "You just know it! It's said in the book that a gentleman should examine himself three times, so you should reflect on it."

Pei Qian stood up abruptly with his head in his arms, ran towards the door, turned his head and smiled and said, "Master, I'll tell Old Wei Xiaobai that next time I go to the market, I'll buy them each a bunch Candied haws or something."

After Pei Qian left, Chen Pingan began to think about refining the second natal object.

As for the slough of Du Maoyang, which is equivalent to the golden body in the fairyland, Chen Pingan decided to wait until the Sui Shanya Academy and consult with Cui Dongshan, who is proficient in this way, before making a decision.

From the bottom of his heart, Chen Pingan couldn't believe in the character of this "young national teacher", but at least he believed in the knowledge and insight of the former saint.

Reunited with Zhang Shanfeng this time, I asked him a lot about practice, especially the refining of natal objects, of course Zhang Shanfeng knew everything.

Although Zhang Shanfeng's cultivation level is not high, his vision and insights are actually quite good, probably because he was born in an orthodox fairy family. After all, his master is a celestial master with a foreign surname in Longhu Mountain. However, it will not be easy for a Taoist to be included in the yellow and purple genealogy of the Tianshi Mansion.

Chen Pingan took out a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, found a wine glass, and sipped it alone.

According to Zhang Shanfeng, even under the premise that financial resources and opportunities are not major issues, the natal objects are still not the best, and the five elements are the best. A celadon bottle natal object similar to a yellow earth cow is used to help quickly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth , This is a must have, one is used for fighting and attacking, such as Jianxiu's natal flying sword, which is the ultimate in attacking natal objects in the world, and one is used for defense, reaching the level similar to Jinli Magic Robe and Military Jiawan Efficacy, a thing that is similar to a square inch arsenal or a sword mound, but this kind of rare thing is almost impossible to come across, let alone seek, a sublime thing that is warmed in the natal acupoint. It has a deterrent effect on evil monsters, and can continuously increase its own yang energy, passing through many unpredictable yin and evil places, where water and fire are not invaded, and filth is not close.

Zhang Shanfeng also said that refining natal objects is a double-edged sword. Since it is a natal object, once it is damaged, it will implicate the fundamental damage and shake of the Dao, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Moreover, each natal object needs to occupy an acupoint mansion. Once it is used indiscriminately, or if the route of spiritual energy is not considered, it is easy to conflict with attributes, which will hinder the practice of the Qi trainer, and it is possible to go crazy.

Zhang Shanfeng finally said that gathering the five elements of natal objects is the dream of all qi practitioners except sword cultivators, but there is no need to deliberately pursue this matter, it is too expensive, and too much about chance. Generally speaking, there are three things that are slightly better The natal item is enough, one attack and one defense, one to assist Qi trainers to absorb and store spiritual energy, most of the five-level Qi trainers in the world are like this, unless they are those who are earth immortals, they will pursue more.

Chen Pingan was a little hesitant, whether to refine the golden gall presented by the City God of Rouge County in Caiyi Country.

However, inside the blue wooden box, it is said that a certain generation of Longhushan great celestial masters personally seal-carved the "Caiyi Country Rouge County Town God Xianyou Boyin", Chen Pingan decided to take it as a parting gift to Zhang Shanfeng. Give this future surname Tianshi of Longhushan.

Chen Ping guessed that this method seal that Shen Wen, the city god of Yanzhi County, attached great importance to, was most likely a half-immortal weapon. Shen Wen said personally that as long as this seal cooperates with the five thunder rectification method passed down by Longhushan, its power is astonishing.

At the beginning, when the seal was sealed in the Chenghuang Pavilion, it was able to block the invasion of the evil spirit of the huge mass grave outside the city of Yanzhi County.

Chen Pingan has never even opened the blue wooden box since he got the seal until today.

The reason why he was hesitant to refine the golden gallbladder was that Chen Pingan got a white bowl with a picture of the five sacred mountains in the ancient Yu Kingdom during the battle in the Caiyi Kingdom. Under Xu Yuanxia's suggestion, he did not sell it in Qinghefang Going out can create the five-color community soil of the ancient elm country.Of course, Chen Pingan would not take the white bowl that earns "five snowflakes" every year as his own life in the land of the five elements.

Instead, Chen Pingan thought that the momentum of the Dali Iron Cavalry going south is completely overwhelming. In the north, there is Wei Bo, the righteous god of Beiyue in Piyun Mountain, his hometown. As Dali, the territory of the dynasty, the five-color soil will become extremely precious. At that time, the Dali court will definitely control it very tightly, so if Chen Pingan can confirm now, the addresses of the other three mountains outside the north and south, gather together If you have enough five-color soil, and find a suitable carrying utensil, you will definitely benefit greatly.

But the difficulty lies in where the Sanyue is located, and the hidden danger lies in using it as a natal object. The short-term benefits are huge, but it will be related to the ups and downs of the Dali country. However, under the upper five realms, the advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages. Quickly become a fairy.

At this moment, Chen Pingan was drinking, thinking of the group of scouts in the wind and snow, and thinking of his neighbor Song Jixin.

After drinking the last bit of sweet-scented osmanthus brew in the cup, Chen Pingan finally decided to give up the idea of ​​refining the Five Colors Sheji Soil.

After making a decision, Chen Pingan no longer has any hesitation, and then prepares to refine the golden gallbladder

It's just that if you want to take advantage of the right time, place and people as in the old dragon city, it's as difficult as reaching the sky.

Chen Pingan stood up, went to the window, and lay down on the window rail, dazed.

After all, this is not like practicing boxing. If you persevere over and over again, you will be able to hit a million punches one day.

Xu Yuanxia knocked on the door and entered, Chen Pingan sat back at the table, took another wine glass, and the two drank together.

Not talking about anything serious, Xu Yuanxia talked about his book of landscape travel, and said that he hoped that one day there would be a book store willing to print it out and earn some private money.

Chen Pingan took out a few small bamboo slips that recorded what he saw and heard along the way, the Osmanthus Island in the old dragon city, the huge fairy ferry boats in Shanhaigui, the sea of ​​clouds above the city, the statue of the rain master of the sea sect, the Jiaolonggou The Buyu Laojiao who fell into the sea from exhaustion nearby, the sword fairy in the portraits in the Ganoderma Zhai of the Upside Down Mountain, the horse walking path of the Great Wall of Sword Qi, the Shouting Street of the Fushi Sect of Tongyezhou, and the Zhaoping Peak outside the Mirage City. Sunrise handed these emerald green bamboo slips engraved with densely packed characters to Xu Yuanxia, ​​and Xu Yuanxia asked some more details. The two drank wine, asked and answered, time passed in the wine.

Right next door, the young Taoist priest Zhang Shanfeng was in the house. He sat down and forgot to breathe, and began to punch slowly. It was different from most boxing styles in the world. It was not suitable for killing the enemy, and it could only be used Practice boxing to keep fit, but Zhang Shanfeng thinks it is the most suitable friend for him.

This set of boxing was created by him, and it is still just a prototype. The boxing theory comes from the drunken words of the master and his own perception. I just don't know if Chen Pingan will dislike it or not, and is willing to learn it.

In the capital city of Qingluan Kingdom, at dusk, two Confucian scholars in green shirts who came from afar sat at a small table with a lot of grease at a roadside stall. On the table was a bamboo tube full of bamboo chopsticks.

A skinny Confucian scholar of about [-] years old was familiar with the temperament of the other party, so he said solemnly: "Zhou Juran, as agreed in advance, I can't eat spicy food."

The young Confucian named Zhou Juran smiled and said, "Monkey, you have to miss out on so many delicacies just because you don't eat spicy food."

The elderly Confucian scholar who was jokingly called "monkey" shook his head helplessly.

This journey has really made him tremble with fear, there is no way, this guy Zhou Juran is simply a troublemaker, the right and wrong in this person's heart are always more vague than other sages in the academy, but fortunately in general Can also allow myself to accept.

This thin Confucian scholar, who was more in line with the temperament of the academy than Zhou Juran, looked around. This time, the Emperor Tang of the Qingluan Kingdom insisted on going his own way, and he actually wanted to win the debate between Buddhism and Taoism.

If it wasn't for their Guanhu Academy, whose attention is now drawn to the Taoist Heavenly King of Luzhou in Beiju, and has no time to take care of this place, it wouldn't be him Hou Zheng and Zhou Juran, a gentleman and a sage, who "traveled around" the Qingluan Kingdom. Instead, the two went straight to the palace and reprimanded the Tang Emperor.

The sage Zhou Juran ordered two local delicacies from Pianerchuan, one more spicy and one not spicy, and started eating with the "monkey" from the old dragon city.

A young sage who likes to call himself Zhou Ju, rolled a large piece of chopsticks into his mouth, and said vaguely: "I heard from the master that the debate on Buddhism and Taoism in Qingluan Kingdom this time is a bit different. It is about Buddhism and Taoism to the outside world. Each sent ten real people and eminent monks to quarrel in the palace to see who was more capable of fighting, but it was the dark place that really decided the outcome. An old man from the Jiang family in Yunlin was specially invited as the chief executive, Let two earth immortals observe the supernatural powers of mountains and rivers with their palms, observe a Taoist priest and a monk throughout the whole process, and seamlessly arrange for these two people to debate in private to see who is better in Buddhism and Taoism. In the Buddhist scriptures and Daoist collections, the winners and losers are compared, and the merits of life and persuasion, knowledge, self-cultivation, and enlightenment are just like three rounds of competition."

The older Confucian scholar frowned. This was the first time Zhou Juran mentioned this inside story. After thinking for a while, he relaxed his brows, "It's no wonder the owner of the mountain didn't get angry. The stones from other mountains can attack jade. Qingluan Kingdom This move is actually not all bad.”

Zhou Juran smiled knowingly, and tapped the Confucian scholar facing him with his chopsticks, "You Hou Zheng is the most tempered towards me at this point, you can see it openly, and it's good to see it."

The gentleman of the academy named Hou Zheng shook his head and remained silent.

Zhou Juran asked: "Such a big event happened in the old dragon city, why don't you go home and take a look?"

Hou Zheng still shook his head, "It's useless to go. There is not much left of the family tradition handed down by the Hou family's ancestors. It's just dying. I went here to make the wick brighter. It's better to be half dead. Hanging my life, I can only hope that there will be a responsible junior before I dare to help."

Zhou Juran nodded, "You are still thoughtful."

Hou Zheng smiled wryly: "After all, I was born and raised there, can I not think about it?"

Zhou Juran stopped his chopsticks and asked, "Are you full?"

Hou Zheng glanced at the empty big white bowl in front of the other party, there was not even soup left, ignored Zhou Juran, and buried himself in eating.

Zhou Juran sighed, turned his head and shouted: "Shopkeeper, remember to put a little less spicy in another bowl. The spicy food in your stall is really spicy enough to kill a person."

There were Mili and young women who came back from an outing on the street. Zhou Juran sighed: "The beauties who came back from the spring outing, sweating a little, plus the faint fragrance brought back from the mountains and lakes, are really beautiful."

Hou Zheng ignored it.

Zhou Juran said again: "Otherwise, I will also join this game, so that the debate between Buddhism and Taoism in Qingluan Kingdom will simply become a small dispute between the three religions."

Hou Zheng replied very quickly this time, without raising his head, he said calmly, "No."

Zhou Juran slapped the table, "The shopkeeper, it's even more spicy."

When the sages and gentlemen of the academy sat and ate Pian Erchuan, not far from the capital, there was a small Taoist temple with little reputation. Practitioners are really not worth mentioning. The master of the temple is not even a middle-level five-level Qi trainer. Compared with the ancient Taoist temples in Qingluan Kingdom that have a long history of thousands of years and hundreds of years, this Baiyun Temple was built in less than a hundred years. In the past few years, the Fengshui treasures in the capital have long been divided up by those "predecessors" Taoist temples on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Baiyun Temple, which is about the size of a block of tofu, has to be next to a noisy market place. There are still a few ancient trees in the temple, but they are barely available, and they caused a lot of trouble for the Baiyun Temple. The children in the nearby Fang City like to put paper kites, and they often hang them on the big tree in the temple, so every now and then a woman and man will lead their crying children to scold the street outside Baiyun Temple, and then rush into the Taoist temple , reprimanded those timid little Taoist priests, and told them to climb the ladder to retrieve the paper kite with a broken string. The next few words, these broken trees that got in the way were cut down early to chop firewood.

The haggard middle-aged temple master actually walked out of the study every time, only dared to secretly stand in the distance with a frowning face, letting his junior brother or his own disciple block the disaster.

Once my little Taoist boy ran out secretly and put the paper kite with the acquaintance of the neighborhood children, and accidentally hung it on the tree. After a battle between heaven and man, I really felt sorry for the paper kite, so I still bit the bullet and told the Taoist temple In the end, the master and the viewer finally caught the punching bag, almost beat his butt, but that day Xiaodaotong burst out laughing, it turned out that there was an extra porcelain doll that he had been coveting for a long time in the bed where he lived, and let him Show off with other Taoist boys for a long time.

It was already dark at this moment, the middle-aged Taoist priest raised his head in the small study, staring at the words of the book for a long time, which made his eyes hurt slightly.

On the four walls of the study, on the bookshelves from two sides to the top, in addition to a whole set of Taoist collections, there are actually many Buddhist scriptures and Confucian classics mixed in.

The middle-aged Taoist priests have read it carefully, and there are more than [-] characters in the small script written by the reading experience of these years alone.

Others practice to despise princes and princes, to prove immortality, and to break free from the prison of heaven and earth. The master of this small Taoist temple reads more books in order to live a few more years.

The books of sages and sages of the three religions and hundreds of schools must be read.

Although Chen Ping'an and his party were currently living under the roof of the Daze Gang, Zhu Fengxian never went to the house to get close to Chen Ping'an. It was only in the early morning of the ceremony that he invited Chen Ping'an to climb the mountain together to the Golden Osmanthus Temple on the top of the mountain.

On the way to climb the mountain, Zhu Fengxian and Chen An walked side by side, and the things they talked about were only the customs of Qingluan Kingdom.

When they arrived at the gate of Jingui Temple, Xu Borui greeted them with a smile, and arranged Zhu Fengxian and Chen Ping'an in the front row adjacent to the place where the Taoist temple accepted disciples.

The old god Zhang Guo, the master of the temple, finally recruited nine disciples, Zhu Ziyang and Liu Qingcheng were among them without any suspense, the remaining seven, two were siblings from the market, and the remaining five were Qingluan and Qingshan. And the son of a wealthy family from the Three Kingdoms of Yunxiao.

Together with three people including Xu Borui, there are twelve direct disciples.

The little Taoist boy who lent the umbrella to Pei Qian has now become nine senior fellow students, standing behind Xu Borui, smiling from ear to ear.

Then he quickly looked at Pei Qian, only to find that she didn't look at him at all, and Xiao Daotong felt a little disappointed.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the Taoist immortal master's acceptance of apprentices as complicated, but it took nearly an hour.

After watching the ceremony, Chen Pingan, Zhu Fengxian, the old woman from Yanzhizhai, and Jin Guiguan presented a valuable oil-paper umbrella with a osmanthus stick handle.

Zhu Fengxian still had to stay on the mountainside for a few days, after all Zhu Ziyang had just become a disciple of Zhang Guo at Jingui Temple, if the environment was not acclimatized, or he was not used to being treated, Zhu Fengxian was not at ease, so he went down the mountain and left.

In vain watched the acceptance ceremony, took an osmanthus umbrella in vain, and said goodbye to Zhu Fengxian and the old woman from Yanzhizhai. , to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

The yellow earth ox joined the team, and Pei Qian sat on its back.

It was the first time that Pei Qian proposed to ride a ox before, and he got a chestnut from Chen Pingan, but the ox didn't refuse and let Pei Qian sit on his back.

Zhang Shanfeng and Xu Yuanxia knew more about the mountain than the four picture scrolls in Ouhua Blessed Land, so they were particularly surprised.

After another ten days, I passed a village surrounded by mountains on three sides. At dusk, the smoke from the kitchen was curling up, black tiles and white walls, carved beams and painted buildings, a paradise.

Chen Pingan and the others walked down the path on the ridge, and when they arrived at the village, they found that they could not understand the language. Afterwards, a Mr. from the village school came and communicated with Chen Pingan in jerky Aquarius dialect. By coincidence, Chen Pingan knew that the village was almost All surnamed Chen, have practiced martial arts and darts for generations, but according to the ancestors' precepts and family rules, no matter how poor the family is, children must complete four years of school before they can drop out of school and go to work in the fields.

The patriarch is a rare old man, hale and hearty, walking like flying, wearing a gray gown, and wearing cloth shoes. According to the teacher of the school, the old patriarch lives here for hundreds of miles. The feat of stopping a horse to save a child in a busy city, so it has the reputation of "Chen Pai Fang".When the old man heard that Chen Ping'an was also surnamed Chen, he was very happy, and kindly invited them to his home as guests. He had already finished dinner, but the old man asked the family to make another big table of sumptuous meals, and the old man brought a pot of sorghum wine brewed by himself. , took Chen Pingan to drink.

Although the old man liked to drink, he didn't like to persuade people to drink at the wine table. As a result, Chen Ping'an drank a little better instead.

In the end, I didn’t know how to get to the house. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I found that I was lying on an antique big bed, I lifted the quilt, put on my boots and pushed the door out. In Ouhua Blessed Land, I asked the national teacher Zhongqiu to ask for a lot of books about bridge construction from the Ministry of Industry. Among them, there is a building method that Chen Pingan reads the most. It is not only about bridges, but also introduces houses, attics and other buildings. Chen Pingan also likes it. Fascinated.

The houses on this side of the village are mostly connected together, so the corridors are often extremely long, and the brothers are next to each other after they separate.

Chen Pingan walked out of the corridor, walked along the Qingshiban Road to a pond, and stood there overnight.

In fact, I didn't think much about it, I was just in a daze.

The next day, he was retained by the old patriarch who was too kind.

Although Pei Qian could not speak the local dialect, he still played with a large group of peers.

When I went to call Pei Qian for dinner that day, a group of children were playing eagles and chickens.

Pei Qian asked Chen Pingan to play together. Chen Pingan smiled and raised his fingers, raising his hand as a chestnut knocking gesture.

It's just that Pei Qian couldn't stop her stalking, Chen Pingan became the old hen protecting the chickens, and Pei Qian became the eagle catching the chickens.

Where did Pei Qian catch the "chicken cub" on the tail of Chen Pingan's group.

So she switched places with that peer.

In the end, Pei Qian was the one who laughed the loudest.

A young Taoist priest stood in the distance, smiling and waving, indicating that the two of them, the master and the apprentice, were about to come to the table for dinner.

The children almost dispersed and went home, accompanied by the smoke and afterglow, and the elders were at their door, shouting their children's names loudly.

Chen Pingan took Pei Qian's hand and walked towards Zhang Shanfeng.

When the three of them were walking in the alley, a short old Taoist with a wine nose suddenly appeared in front of him, wearing a black Taoist robe, with a lifelike bright red fire dragon embroidered on the left and right sleeves.

Zhang Shanfeng froze on the spot.

Chen Ping'an held his breath, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

Pei Qian only glanced at it a few times, and quickly turned his head away not daring to look any more.

Zhang Shanfeng stepped forward quickly and asked in confusion, "Master, why are you here?"

The old man stared and said: "If the teacher doesn't come to arrest you and go back to the mountain to practice Taoism, do you still want to marry a wife and have children outside, and spread your branches and leaves?"

Zhang Shanfeng turned his head and smiled helplessly at Chen Pingan, probably meaning that my master is just like this, so don't worry too much about it.

After the young Taoist priest turned his head, the old man stared blankly at Zhang Shanfeng, who had a slightly pale face, and then at the shoulder of his apprentice, which was pierced by the flying sword of natal. As a teacher, go and pierce his straw man."

Zhang Shanfeng wiped his face with his palm. With such a master on the table, he was really ashamed to see Chen Pingan.

With a solemn expression, Chen Ping'an clasped his fists to salute this old Taoist priest from Beiju Luzhou.

As an old man with the surname of Tianshi outside Longhu Mountain, he nodded to Chen Pingan, and said bluntly to him with ripples in his heart: "Boy, it's a bit rough to rebuild your Longevity Bridge after being destroyed by others. The natal object, this refining is really full of immortality, um, not bad."

After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Shanfeng again and asked him to stretch out his palm. The old Taoist put his fingers together to draw a talisman in the air in his palm. After the talisman was completed, he waved his sleeve casually. The Zhenwu sword placed in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and Xu Yuanxia's dagger fell out of thin air.

Zhang Shanfeng was not surprised, he stretched out his hand to catch the real martial arts sword and dagger, and he did not forget to turn his head and explain to Chen Pingan: "My master is not high in cultivation, and he doesn't know anything else, but he is very good at this kind of heresy little trick. "

The old man stroked his beard and smiled, his face was full of complacency, he was not ashamed but proud of exposing the shortcomings of the closed disciples so much.

Chen Ping glanced at the young Taoist priest, then at the old Taoist priest with embroidered fire dragons on his sleeves, and always felt that Zhang Shanfeng was dark under the lamp, and misunderstood your master too deeply.

The old man made a seemingly random "ghost painting" with his toes on the ground, and there was no trace on the bluestone board. Then he asked Zhang Shanfeng to stand in it. Go to Longhu Mountain."

Zhang Shanfeng walked into the "talisman" that didn't seem to exist, threw the short knife in his hand to Chen Pingan, and said with a wry smile: "Apologize to Brother Xu for me, it was too hasty, so I can only leave without saying goodbye. "

Chen Pingan took Xu Yuanxia's dagger, remembered something, and quickly took out the blue wooden box from the square inch, and threw it to Zhang Shanfeng, "Inside is a seal of the Town God's Pavilion in Rouge County, Caiyi Country, here it is for you. It can be used in conjunction with the five thunders."

Seeing that the wooden box was old and ordinary, Zhang Shanfeng put it in his arms with confidence.

The old man squinted his eyes suddenly, then returned to normal in an instant, and asked with a smile: "If you make a request, I will make dozens of it, and I will not wait when it is too late."

Chen Pingan said without hesitation: "Then please trouble the old master and teach Zhang Shanfeng some advanced Taoism. I beg the old master to use a little bit of care."

The old man laughed heartily, stretched out his hand and nodded at Chen Pingan, and said, "Good boy, cursing people around the corner."

The old man reached out to grab Zhang Shanfeng, and the two of them disappeared in a flash. Chen Pingan found that there was no movement in the thin aura around the alley.

Chen Pingan was lost in thought.

Pei Qian tugged at his cuff and asked, "What should I do?"

Chen Pingan came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Go eat."
