Sword comes

Sui Jingcheng was a little uncomfortable.

The old Wang Dun in my impression, the No. 1 martial arts since the founding of the Wuling Kingdom, the great master who claims to be able to fight all over the Jianghu of the Wuling Kingdom with one hand, is well-known in the ruling and opposition circles, whether it is a martial artist or a scholar , or traffickers and pawns, they all say that the old man Wang Dun is an elegant old man in green shirts. One man was in charge of the pass, intercepting an enemy cavalry army that was attacking the pass south, and won enough time for the frontier army of Wuling Kingdom to deploy troops

Chen Ping took his seat first, and Sui Jingcheng followed suit.

Wang Dun got up again, went to the counter to fetch three jugs of wine, one for each person, and said proudly, "I'm treating you."

When Wang Dun put the jug in front of Sui Jingcheng, he said in a low voice: "The daughter of the old servant Sui Xinyu, she looks really nice, the four beauties are equally famous, each has its own merits, and there is no distinction between high and low. It is a high ranking for our Wuling country girls." Face is more worthy of accepting a plaque from the emperor than my old man, but I have to say something fair, the sword fairy you are looking for, whether it is a master or a husband, is a bit stingy , I’m only willing to give you a bowl of wine.”

Sui Jingcheng glanced at Chen Pingan on the opposite side of the table, and just opened the mud seal on his own, and poured wine into the big white bowl. Sui Jingcheng smiled at the old man who claimed to be covered with a face: "Old Master Wang"

Wang Dun was not very happy when he heard it, he waved his hands and said: "You are not old or old, people are old and hearted, just call me the owner of the Wang Zhuang, and it is fine to call me Wang Dun directly by his first name."

Sui Jingcheng nodded, "Master Wang, Xiao Shuye, the swordsman of the Qingci Kingdom, is dead now."

Wang Dun sighed, hearing what this "beautiful man from the Sui family" meant, he raised his wine bowl and took a sip of the wine, "But I'm not the bottom of the seal dynasty. Randomly pick out an old guy whose skills are even better than mine. high."

Sui Jingcheng felt that he had nothing to say.

Wang Dun smiled and turned his head to look at the young man in the blue shirt. He is a sword fairy surnamed Chen whose deeds have been published in several Shanshui mansion newspapers. The earliest record should be a person who went to Chunlu Garden On a ferry boat, the flying sword was not used, just fist to fist, and knocked off the ferry boat a golden-skinned warrior named Liao from the Iron Mansion of the Daguan Dynasty. A sword slashed through the Thunder Cloud, the guardian of the Golden Crow Palace, and then the two comrades who were supposed to fight each other, actually drank tea together in Yuying Yaqing, the spring dew nursery. Rumor has it that they became friends, and now they are in Wuling Kingdom again. Xiao Shuye's head was removed.

Wang Dun asked: "This foreign swordsman, will you kill me with a sword just because I said something that you are not generous enough?"

Chen Pingan smiled helplessly: "Of course not."

Wang Dun raised the wine bowl, Chen Pingan followed suit, bumped it lightly, Wang Dun asked softly after drinking the wine, "How old are you?"

Chen Pingan said: "About three hundred years old."

Wang Dun put down the wine bowl and touched his heart, "I feel a little better now, otherwise I always feel that I have lived a lot of my life to a dog."

Sui Jingcheng smiled slightly.

Although there is nothing to do with the old Wang Dun in my impression, it seems that I feel better sitting at a table with such an old owner of Sansao Villa and drinking.

Wang Dun lowered his voice and asked: "It was really just fist to fist that beat that man named Liao from the Iron Mansion so that he fell off the ferry."

Chen Ping said with a smile: "It's a bit overstated, it's very dangerous."

Wang Dun smiled and asked: "Then the one where the two of us compete with each other as soon as possible. Don't worry, it's just that I drank some wine and saw a real worldly expert, and my hands were itchy."

Chen Pingan shook his head.

Wang Dun said: "Drinking two pots of wine for nothing, I don't want such a small thing."

Seeing that the man showed no signs of changing his mind, Wang Dun said, "Then I beg you."

Chen Pingan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Just follow what Senior Wang said, fist to fist, and stop as soon as you click."

Wang Dun stood up, looked around, seemed to have picked a wine table next to him, and pressed down lightly with his palm, the four legs of the table turned into powder, but without a sound, the table fell to the ground lightly.

Chen Pingan said: "If you feel that the two of you jumped on the table to compete, and in the eyes of others, it looks like a joke, then we can move this table away."

Wang Dun was stunned for a moment, "I really want to do this, isn't it because I'm afraid that you, the sword fairy, will feel inferior?"

The two walked onto the table almost at the same time.

Sui Jingcheng wanted to get up and walk out of the restaurant, but Chen Pingan stretched out his hand to signal her not to get up.

After Wang Dun stood still, he clasped his fists and said, "Wuling Kingdom Sasao Mountain Villa Wang Dun has made a small achievement in boxing, and I hope you can teach me."

Chen Pingan clasped his fists in return, but without saying a word, he stretched out his hand and spread out his palm, "Please."

It is inappropriate to report the real birthplace and name.

He said he was a good person, but he didn't want to.

The spectators in the distance were in an uproar, why did this old wine seller become old man Wang Dun?

It's just that when the old man tore off the skin on his face and revealed his true face, the crowd was excited, and it turned out to be the old man Wang Dun, who has never been seen before.

Wang Dun punched like a rainbow, with a menacing momentum, but no killing intent.

That green shirt is more defensive than offensive.

When the two stood side by side, Wang Dun smiled and said, "I have roughly figured out the details, can we let go of our hands and feet a little?"

Chen Pingan nodded.

In the distance of the streets and alleys, on the ridges of the roofs, on the trees on the walls, the martial artists of the rivers and lakes watched with agitated emotions. This kind of peak battle between the two sides confined to a square inch was really unprecedented in a hundred years.

Senior Wang Dun deserves to be No. 1 in our Wuling Kingdom. When he met a sword fairy, he dared to throw a punch without saying anything, but he was not at a disadvantage.

Although the sword fairy has not yet sacrificed a flying sword, but just like that, with a word of conscience, the old man Wang Dun has already risked his life, gambled on the dignity of a martial artist who has never been defeated in his life, and given all the Jiang Hu in Wuling Kingdom The middleman earns a huge face

Those heroes who only dare to watch the battle from a distance, firstly, they have no real martial arts masters, and secondly, they are far away from the wine shop, so naturally they can't see it as clearly as Sui Jingcheng.

For example, she saw that when the senior was about to end the sparring, one shot suddenly accelerated, took a step forward, and with a twist of the wrist, he slapped Wang Dun's punch away, and continued to move forward with his palm, and was about to slap Wang Dun's face. On the door, it should be possible to slap Wang Dun's palm out of the table under the feet of both parties. I never thought that Wang Dun would wink quickly, and the senior nodded slightly. Hitting each other almost at the same time, the two of them slid out two steps together, with a tacit understanding between the two, they both landed on the edge of the table.

Sui Jingcheng saw that Wang Dun started to wink again, and the senior in the green shirt also started to wink, Sui Jingcheng was at a loss, why did he feel like he was bargaining for a deal? It's all about you coming and going, almost all results are evenly matched, and no one takes advantage. From the perspective of outsiders, this is a battle of masters regardless of superiority or superiority.

In the end, the two of them should have negotiated the "price". One of them punched the other's chest, and the table under their feet was split in two.

Finish work.

Wang Dun laughed loudly and said, "I never imagined that a sword fairy would have such good boxing skills."

The other party said loudly: "Your Wang Dun's fists are stronger and polished more flawlessly. It can be ten years long, or five years short. I will come here to sweep the villa and learn boxing skills with you Wang Dun."

Sui Jingcheng rubbed his forehead, lowered his head to drink, and felt that he couldn't bear to look directly at him. Regarding the mutual flattery of those two, he felt that the real rivers and lakes are like wine mixed with water.

If Hu Xinfeng, Xiao Shuye and others act like this, Sui Jingcheng doesn't care, but he and Wang Dun are so brazen that Sui Jingcheng almost falls apart.

Wang Dun walked to the door of the restaurant, clasped his fists high, as a salute to everyone, then waved his hands, "Let's all go away."

The cheers and applause came one after another, and then dispersed one after another.

The old man Wang Dun has already spoken like this, so it's not easy for everyone to stay any longer.

When Wang Dun sat back to his original position, the green-clothed sword fairy had already picked up the two tabletops that had been torn in half from the ground, and stacked them on an adjacent wine table.

After Wang Dun sat down, he took a sip of wine and said with emotion: "Since you have such a high level of cultivation, why did you take the initiative to ask me Wang Dun to play tricks? It is because the family behind the Sui family wants me, Wang Dun, to be with you two." After staying away from the Wuling Kingdom and going to the mountains to practice, I can help take care of it for a while."

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "I don't have such a request, I just want to show my face here, so as to remind some people in the dark that if they want to do something to the Sui family, they should weigh the consequences of being revenged by me."

Wang Dun hummed and nodded, "The intrigues of the cultivators on the mountain are actually nothing more than the grievances and grievances of the rivers and lakes that have lengthened the lifespan of both parties. At the root, they are the same and have no meaning. But you, who should belong to the young sword cultivator , It’s not like the mountain gods I’ve seen before, so I don’t think it’s a waste of these drinks when I invite you to drink. Am I speaking too loudly?”

Chen Ping said with a smile: "Warrior practice, the most important thing is to be down-to-earth. There is no shortcut. If you don't have a high spirit and look farther, how can you climb to the top step by step?"

Although Wang Dun sells wine, he doesn't seem to have much interest in drinking. Most of them drink in small sips, never in a posture of heavy drinking. He said sadly: "This wine shop will not be able to continue. Many people in the Jianghu will not listen to the truth. gone."

Chen Pingan asked with a smile: "The owner of Wang Zhuang doesn't like to listen to good things so much."

Wang Dun curled his lips, "I also like to listen. When I was young, I especially liked to listen. Now I like to listen even more. It's just that I like to listen to good things. If I don't listen to more truthful and ugly words, I'm afraid that I, Wang Dun, will float to the sea of ​​clouds." If you go inside, you will be floating by then, and you won’t be able to fall to your death without the supernatural powers of Immortal Yunhai.”

Chen Ping glanced at the sky.

Wang Dun smiled and asked: "According to what we said earlier, in addition to more than a dozen jars of good wine, we have to sweep the villa and take out something."

Chen Pingan said: "Two fast horses, and the address of the ferry of the fairy family in Luying Country."

Wang Dun was puzzled and said, "That's it."

Chen Pingan said: "It's already a lot."

Wang Dun pointed to the counter, "The more wine is placed below, the more mellow the taste, the sword fairy can take it as he pleases."

Chen Pingan got up and went to the counter, and began to pour wine into Yangjian Gourd.

One jar after another was opened.

After the five altars of old wine were unsealed, Wang Dun couldn't sit still. He leaned over the counter and persuaded softly, "On the Jianghu road, it's almost enough to make a mistake by drinking."

The young green-clothed sword fairy turned his back to Wang Dun, and poured wine in his hand without stopping, "It's okay, put more wine, so you can drink less."

Wang Dun hesitated for a moment, and reminded: "I can change my face and continue selling wine in another place."

The young Sword Immortal raised his head and said with a smile: "Then I first wish the owner of the Wang Village a happy opening and a wealth of wealth."

Wang Dun saw that he was not on the right track, so he could only continue to say: "The jars of old wine below are too strong, and they are called thin plum wine. In fact, it is the old wine stored in the old cellar that I sprinkled in the villa. Generally, people from Jianghu who come to this wine shop do not know the name of the wine. If you can afford it, you don’t dare to drink two bowls, it’s too much stamina, so it’s called two bowls shake or three bowls pour, you might as well mix it with ordinary wine, the taste will be even better.”

The young man shook his head and said, "It's okay. Drinking alcohol is not drinking tea. You don't need to pay attention to the lingering aftertaste. Drinking to get drunk is justified."

Wang Dun couldn't bear it anymore, "Nowadays there are so many distinguished guests in Zhuangzi, officials, family friends, famous people in the literary world, all of them can't wait. The thirty jars of thin plum wine stored in Zhuangzi are estimated to have lost all casualties. So I came here to hide in peace, and I want to keep a few jars of skinny plum wine, you don't understand a little bit."

The young man had already opened the last jar of skinny plum wine, and said angrily, "Senior, why didn't you say earlier that once the mud seal is opened, it won't be able to hide the taste. We've already drank it on the wine table before, otherwise we can have a taste." It's a pity that the taste of this thin plum wine is not put into my jug right now, it's a pity. Forget it, since the owner of Wang Zhuang wants to keep a jar to drink for himself, I just want to share a bowl of wine with others I'll forget about the stingy act of drinking, and leave this altar for the owner of the Wang Zhuang."

Wang Dun waved his hand, hehe said with a smile: "Where is it, just pour the wine, I, Wang Dun, are not that kind of person. I give good wine to sword immortals, and store wine to raise sword gourds. It's a beautiful thing in the world, and it's a good thing."

So in the end, there was no jar of skinny plum wine left.

Wang Dun turned around, as if watching girls getting married far away, a little sad, and didn't want to look any further.

Wang Dun turned his back to the counter and sighed, "When I leave here, it's not because I don't want to treat guests warmly. I don't want to go after sweeping the villa. It's mostly just boring entertainment."

Then Wang Dun said the detailed address of the fairy family ferry in Luying country.

Chen Ping walked out of the counter and said with a smile, "Then please trouble Master Wang to bring two horses, we won't spend the night in the small town, and hurry on our way."

With a wave of his hand, Wang Dun called a mountain villa disciple who had heard the news to him from the corner of the street in the distance. He was a middle-aged swordsman with a face like a crown of jade. , or swords and guns, they are all well-deserved No.1 in Wuling Kingdom, so among the group of direct disciples, each one is proficient, and the one who came to the wine shop is the proud disciple who has won the true teaching of Wang Dun's swordsmanship. The top three masters in swordsmanship, after seeing Chen Ping'an, listened to his master's instructions, and before leaving the winery, he did not forget to salute the green-clothed swordsman: "Wang Jingshan, a disciple of Sasao Villa, pays homage to the swordsman. If you still pass by the villa, I implore the sword fairy to teach the younger generation a lesson or two in swordsmanship."

Chen Ping smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Wang Dun smiled and said: "What kind of swordsmanship are you teaching? Once the flying swords on the mountain come and go, you, Wang Jingshan, will lose. Just say that the natal object of wanting to see the sword fairy with your own eyes is to talk about bullshit reasons, and you are not ashamed."

Wang Jingshan was obviously familiar with his master's temper, and he didn't feel embarrassed, so he left with a smile on his face.

Soon Wang Jingshan brought two steeds from the villa, besides Wang Jingshan, there were also two riders, a pair of teenagers and girls, who were Wang Jingshan's younger brother and younger sister.

Three people and five horses came to this county not far from Sasao Villa.

Ordinary people in the villa would not dare to go to the wine shop with Wang Jingshan to bother the master, to see the legendary sword fairy demeanor, that is, the two master's favorite disciples, so hard that Wang Jingshan had to bite the bullet and take them together.

Wang Dun and the two foreigners were not in the restaurant, but the three of them stood at the entrance of the inn near the restaurant.

Without any polite greetings, Chen Pingan and Sui Jingcheng got on their horses and rode away.

The boy who carried a sword like Wang Jingshan clenched his fists and said in amazement: "As expected of the sword fairy mentioned in the book."

Wang Dun smiled and asked, "Which dog's eye of yours saw that?"

The young man was not afraid of his master Wang Dun at all, he pointed at his own eyes with two fingers bent, "I can see it all"

This movement is naturally learned from the master.

The girl wore a knife, and said disapprovingly, "Anyway, I didn't see any way."

The young man sneered and said, "You are not like me when you learn knives. Naturally, you can't feel the endless sword intent on that sword fairy. I'm afraid to scare you when I say it. I just took a few glances and it will benefit you a lot. Let me compete, even if I just borrow a trace of the Sword Immortal's sword will, you will definitely lose."

Wang Dun slapped the young man on the head, "Stupid, why didn't you say that when that sword fairy was there just now?"

The young man said solemnly: "The sword fairy is too imposing, I am suppressed by that earth-shattering and abundant sword intent, and I can't open my mouth."

Wang Dun slapped him again, causing the boy's head to shake, "Go away."

The young man walked out swaggeringly, turned his head and said with a smile: "On the way here, I heard that Senior Brother Jing Shan said that Lu Dayong, who turned the river, had learned about the sword fairy's flying sword. After a glimpse of Feijian's true intentions, hehe, not to mention Senior Sister, even Senior Brother Jing Shan will not be my opponent in the future. To me, it is gratifying, but to Senior Brother Jing Shan, it is truly deplorable."

After finishing speaking, the boy with the sword on his back walked like flying.

Wang Jingshan suppressed a smile, "Master, who is this stinky little fellow?"

In order to get rid of himself, Wang Dun began to throw dirty water indiscriminately, "It should be your elder sister."

Wang Dun's big disciple, Fu Loutai, is also the top three swordsman masters in Wuling Kingdom, and Fu Loutai's swordsmanship is also very good, but a few years ago, when the old girl got married, she turned out to be a husband and a teacher. After leaving the Jianghu, the person she married was neither a well-matched hero of the Jianghu, nor a son of a wealthy family, but an ordinary man from a wealthy family, and he was seven or eight years younger than her, which was even more strange The most important thing is that the entire Sasao Villa, from Wang Dun to all the brothers and sisters of Fu Loutai, didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and they never cared about some gossip in the world.When Wang Dun was not in the villa in the early years, it was actually Fu Loutai who taught martial arts. Even though Wang Jingshan was older than Fu Loutai, he still respected this elder sister very much.

So the girl felt a little bit aggrieved, and complained: "Master, it's impossible for the elder sister to not be in the villa, and your old man will kill the donkey without killing the donkey. This is too immoral."

Wang Dun turned a deaf ear and walked back to the restaurant with his two disciples.

After closing this restaurant, it is natural to move.

Wang Dun sat at the wine table, and Wang Jingshan began to take this opportunity to report to the old man on the current situation of Sansao Villa, the income and expenditure of money, the relationship between people, the appropriate hanging of the emperor's imperial plaque, which day was chosen as the auspicious day, which sect and which sect The hero handed over the name cards and gifts, but did not enter the Zhuangzi to stay. Who complained to Wang Jingshan when he stayed in the villa? For the old man's birthday banquet in the rivers and lakes, who needs to show up at the villa to pay back the gift? A servant from the yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice personally sent a letter to the villa, asking Zhuangzi to send people to help the government solve a suspenseful murder case in the capital.

Wang Dun poured wine from the jug on the table into the big white bowl, and drank the wine in one sip. For some things that Wang Jingshan had already decided, the old man mostly just nodded. Some matters that Wang Dun thought were more important to note were detailed, and Wang Jingshan wrote them down one by one.

The girl with the knife yawned at the side, but she didn't dare to ask for a drink. She just lay on the table, looking at the street beyond the inn, secretly thinking, what kind of face is that woman wearing a fence? Will it be a beautiful woman who picked up the power fence, will it be just like that, will it make people feel a little bit amazing? But the girl is still a little disappointed, the sword fairy who thought she might not have the chance to meet once in her life, Except for being surprisingly young, nothing else seems to match the image of a sword fairy in her mind.

Wang Jingshan talked for nearly half an hour before finishing all the recent lively events in the villa.

Wang Jingshan never drank alcohol, was extremely obsessed with swordsmanship, was not close to women, and was a vegetarian all the year round, but after the elder sister Fu Loutai retired from the Jianghu, he and an old housekeeper mostly took care of the internal and external affairs of the villa. Wang Jingshan is the main one, but in fact, the old butler is getting old, and he suffered from many diseases in the rivers and lakes in the early years, and his energy is already low, so Wang Jingshan is more responsible, like Master Wang Dun. , Wang Jingshan needs to come forward to make connections. After all, many famous Jianghu people even have to carefully consider the identity and cultivation level of the Sansao Villa disciple who is in charge of receiving him. Among the many disciples of senior Wang Dun, Lu Zhuo, who was the least qualified, was in charge of entertaining, so he was going to make a fuss.

Wang Dun picked up the bowl to drink, put it down, and said: "Jing Shan, don't you blame your senior sister Fu? If she was still in Zhuangzi, you wouldn't have to deal with these messy affairs, and maybe you could be ranked among the seven territory."

Wang Jingshan said with a smile: "I don't believe that I don't complain at all, but I don't complain much, and more of it is why Senior Sister Fu found such a mediocre man. I always think that Senior Sister can find a better one."

Wang Dun smiled and said: "If the matter of love between men and women can be reasoned, I guess there won't be so many novels about gifted scholars and beautiful ladies."

Wang Jingshan has never been too involved in such topics.

In fact, even if you don't like the one who occasionally shows up in the villa with Senior Sister Fu, you are timid and disliked

Wang Jingshan is also polite and courteous, not lacking in the slightest bit of etiquette, not only that, but also tries his best to restrain those juniors and juniors, worrying that they will accidentally show any emotions. In the end, it is Senior Sister Fu who is the most difficult person .

Wang Dun paused for a moment, feeling a little sentimental, "Master feels a little sorry for delaying your sword practice, but the words are not pleasant. Seeing that you can go back and forth, Master feels very relieved in his heart. It is a very comfortable thing to accept you as a disciple and teach you swordsmanship. But no matter what, Master still wants to talk to you."

Wang Jingshan sat upright, "Master, please speak, and my disciples are listening."

Wang Dun smiled, and said softly: "Jing Shan, if one day you feel tired, you are really tired of these ordinary affairs of the villa, and you want to walk the rivers and lakes alone, don't feel guilty, don't have any, just be generous. Find Master, bring a jug of good wine, Master has drunk the wine, and see you off. Whenever you want to go home, come back, and after a rest, go to the rivers and lakes, as it should be, as it should be."

Wang Jingshan hummed.

The girl with the sword on the next table had moist eyes.

Thinking that the senior sister is no longer in the villa, if senior brother Wang Jingshan also leaves, it will be a very sad thing.

But what made the girl even more sad was that the master seemed to be getting old.

Wang Jingshan suddenly said: "Master, then I will go to the rivers and lakes now."

Wang Dun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Don't tell me, let's talk about it, Master has drunk too much today, and I'm just telling you some drunken things that don't cost money. Don't take it seriously, even if you take it seriously, it will be later. Zhuangzi still needs it now." You take the lead"

The girl rolled her eyes, turned her head away, and lay down on the table.

This master who has never had the slightest guru demeanor in front of his own people is really annoying.

But whether it is the senior sister Fu, the senior sister, or the senior brother Wang Jingshan, they are the No. 1 Wang Dun of the Wuling Kingdom in the Jianghu, and the master who is lazy everywhere in the Sasao Villa are two people.

She and that junior brother also believed in this matter.

Because both Fu Loutai and Wang Jingshan have traveled the rivers and lakes with their master.

In his life, the master had conflicts with the monks on the mountain several times, and there were several times of almost life-changing fights.

As for the reason for the master's action, the arguments of the senior sister Fu Loutai and the senior brother Wang Jingshan are exactly the same, that is, the master is meddling.

But for some reason, when Fu Loutai and Wang Jingshan said this sentence, not only did they not complain to Master at all, but their eyes seemed to be full of brilliance.

The boy with the sword on his back came to the restaurant like the wind, and sat on the bench next to his master Wang Dun.

Among Wang Dun's disciples, only this young man can do such things as respecting the teacher, and he has no scruples.

Wang Dun smiled and asked: "Why, have you gained anything?"

The young man lamented: "That Jiangjiao Lu Dayong exaggerated, sprayed my face with saliva, and made me always need to be careful to block his saliva hidden weapon, and Lu Daxia just repeated a few words, I am not really a god, thinking about it There is not much true meaning of Feijian, so Brother Wang is more lucky than Senior Sister, otherwise I would already be No.1 among Master's disciples right now."

Wang Jingshan smiled and said, "Then I'll go back and thank Daxia Hu for his mercy."

The boy waved his hand, "No need, anyway, my swordsmanship is better than yours, brother, either today or tomorrow."

Wang Jingshan smiled and said, "Oh."

The boy changed his words: "It's either this year or next year"

Wang Jingshan stopped talking.

Although this little junior has no rules in his mouth.

But it's about practicing swords.

The boy is the most disciplined one in Sansao Villa.

This is enough.

Wang Dun glanced at the three disciples who had different personalities but were all good. He felt that he could drink more wine today, so he got up and went to the counter, but was stunned.

Why did there come three jugs of unfamiliar wine?

After opening one of the pots, all three disciples could smell the clear and long-lasting aroma of wine.

Wang Dun laughed loudly, and before he sat down, he asked the girl to sit down with a bowl. Even Wang Jingshan was asked to hold a bowl of wine, saying that he had a drink and tasted the wine of the gods on the mountain, and then the old man gave them a drink. Different shades of Xianjia brewed wine were poured into everyone's bowls.

The young man took a sip and said in surprise: "Mother, this wine is strong, much better than our Zhuangzi's thin plum wine. It is indeed a gift from the Sword Immortal. It's amazing."

Wang Jingshan also took a sip and felt that it was indeed different, but he still didn't want to drink more.

After the girl took a sip, she didn't think much of it, and it was still hard to swallow. How could there be any good wine in the world?

The old man smiled at the young man and asked: "You are a sword learner, the master is not a sword fairy, do you feel sorry?"

The young man took a sip of the immortal family wine and said carelessly: "That disciple is not a sword immortal either."

The old man nodded with a smile, and the hand that was ready to hit the young man on the back of the head with a chestnut at any time, quietly changed to the palm, touched the young man's head, and said kindly, "He is quite a conscientious one."

The young man nodded vigorously, and while the master was drinking with his head down, the young man turned his head and winked at the young girl, probably wanting to ask me if I am smart, or if I am strong, so that I can escape a catastrophe and eat less chestnuts.

The girl began to complain to the master.

Wang Jingshan began to add insult to injury.

The teenagers began to pretend to be stupid.

Wang Dun didn't say anything, just poured the wine from the bowls of the three of them into his own white bowl, raised his head to gather the bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.

To go to the Luying Country located on the eastern coast of Beiju Luzhou, from Wuling Country to the north, you need to go through Jingnan and Beiyan.

Neither is a big country, but neither is it a vassal of a big dynasty.

There are many lakes in the south of Jing, and there are many mountains in the north of Yan.

However, the relationship between Jingnan and Wuling Kingdom has not been very good. There are many frictions on the border, but there have been very few wars involving more than [-] frontier troops in the past century.

The border troops of Wuling Kingdom mostly rely on the dangerous passes in the north, while the Jingnan naval forces are strong, and it is difficult for both sides to penetrate into the hinterland of the enemy's country. Therefore, if there are border generals who like to defend, it means that the border between the two countries is peaceful and the border trade is prosperous. But if If it’s a border military general who likes to accumulate small military exploits to seek fame in the temple, there will be as many small battles as a cow’s hair. Anyway, it is doomed that there will not be a big battle with all the power of the country. At the same time, warriors who like to fight and kill will be used to sit on the border, but Jingnan Kingdom has a powerful foreign relative now. More than ten years ago, a young and honorable foreign relative took the initiative to ask to be transferred to the south to build a cavalry army. However, it is rare for Wuling Kingdom to have a local Confucian general who rose from the border and is proficient in the art of war. Dut just happened to be traveling through the border, and unintentionally blocked the fine cavalry from the Jingnan Kingdom, who came in without warning. Maybe Wuling Kingdom would fall to one or two important border towns. The number of soldiers and soldiers who died on the battlefield will definitely be the most in a hundred years.

Chen Pingan and Sui Jingcheng rode together in a narrow pass of the Wuling Kingdom that was not guarded by heavy troops. They passed the border and passed the border. They did not take the official route of Jingnan Kingdom. They still planned to choose some mountains according to Chen Pingan's route plan. The small road passes mountains and rivers, looking for danger and visiting seclusion.

As a result, it didn't take long to enter the country. In a secluded path, I watched a close fight from a distance.

There are two groups of scouts, each with dozens of riders.

The fine cavalry who went south were the scouts of the Wuling Kingdom, and the scouts who returned to the north were the elite cavalry soldiers of the Jingnan Kingdom.

Sui Jingcheng wondered, "The barbarians from the Jingnan Kingdom have always gone south to harass the customs. Why did our scouts enter the enemy's territory on their own initiative?"

Chen Pingan said: "This shows that the famous young Confucian general in Wuling Kingdom has great ambitions. It is definitely not easy for someone who joins the army at a young age and becomes a third-rank general on the border of a country in less than ten years."

The two riders left the path early and parked their horses in the dense forest beside the road. After tying the horses, Chen Pingan and Sui Jingcheng stood on a tree overlooking the battlefield.

Jingnan Kingdom has always had an outstanding naval force, a powerful existence second only to the Great Seal Dynasty and the Daguan Dynasty in the south, but there are almost no regular cavalry troops that can really go into battle. Later, the Liang State bought war horses on a large scale, and only then did it attract a cavalry army of about 1 people. Unfortunately, there was no success, and they ran into the No. [-] Wang Dun of the Wuling Kingdom. Even if the horse has those six legs, he can't catch up. He is doomed to fail and leak the military information, so he retreated back then.

On the other hand, the infantry and cavalry army of the Wuling Kingdom has not been outstanding in the territory of more than ten countries, and it can even be said to be quite poor. However, it has always been at an advantage when facing the soldiers and horses of the Jingnan Kingdom, which only focuses on naval forces.

So Sui Jingcheng, as a native of the Wuling Kingdom, felt that after the two groups of scouts met, the frontier army on his side must have won.

However, the situation on the battlefield turned out to be one-sided. After the scouts from both sides encountered each other, there was no room for maneuver on the path, and the leaders of the scouts from both sides did not hesitate at all.

The scouts from the two countries rode forward silently without any roar.

In the first few rounds of bow and crossbow cavalry shooting, each had casualties. The scout of Jingnan Kingdom, Xiao Sheng, shot and wounded five scouts of Wuling Kingdom. The Jingqi of Jingnan Kingdom had only two deaths and one injury.

Draw a knife and fight again.

The two sides passed by one by one.

It was the scouts who secretly entered the country from Wuling Kingdom that suffered more casualties.

After the two sides exchanged positions on the battlefield, two Wuling scouts who were wounded and fell off their horses tried to escape the path, but were shot in the head and neck by several Jingnan scouts holding arm crossbows.

On the other side of the battlefield, Jing Nanguo fell to the ground as a scout, and his fate was even worse. He was stabbed into his face and chest by several arrows. He was also bent sideways by a rider, and wiped his knife precisely on his neck, spilling blood all over the ground.

The scouts of the Wuling Kingdom, located in the south of the battlefield, continued southward with only one and two horses.

In fact, the scouts on both sides are not riding alone, but fighting in a narrow road, rushing past in a hurry, some of their own horses trying to follow their masters through the battle formation, will be shot or chopped as much as possible by the opponent when they are digging the formation.

Therefore, the scout from the Wuling Kingdom got a pair of horses in exchange for a colleague decisively giving up his mounts.

Otherwise, one person rides one, and one cannot run far.

The rest of the Wuling Kingdom scouts turned their horses around one after another. The purpose was very simple, to use their lives to stop the enemy scouts from chasing and killing them.

Of course, the scout who had lost his horse also took a deep breath and stood with a knife.

On the battlefield, the cavalry of the brigade dare not do the matter of fighting and retreating. The most elite scouts in their group of cavalry can actually do it. Pull the barbarians of Jingnan Kingdom to distance themselves.

The two sides were originally equal in strength, but there was a gap in strength. After passing through the formation once, and Wuling Kingdom fled the battlefield with one man and two cavalry, the disparity in combat strength was even greater.

After a moment.

It's just a corpse.

The Jingnan Kingdom scouts followed silently with three riders and six horses.

Under the command of a young soldier, the rest of the scouts dismounted from their horses, or pressed their light crossbows against the foreheads of the wounded enemy scouts on the ground, and with a bang, the arrows pierced into their heads.

There were also two scouts from Jingnan Kingdom standing behind a badly wounded enemy cavalry pawn, and began to compete with each other for crossbow aiming. The loser became furious, drew out his saber, stepped forward, and chopped off his head with one blow.

The young soldier remained expressionless, stepping on the corpse of a Wuling Kingdom scout with one foot, and slowly wiped away the blood from the sword in his hand with the face of the corpse on the ground.

On the ground, a Wuling Kingdom scout who should have been seriously injured and died, suddenly pointed his arm crossbow at an enemy who approached him to cut off the leader.

The young soldier seemed to have expected it long ago, without turning his head, he threw the saber in his hand, and the blade just cut off the arm holding the crossbow. With bloodshot eyes, he strode forward, about to chop the scout with the broken arm into a pulp, never thought that the young man in the distance said: "Don't kill people to vent your anger, give him a good time, maybe one day we will end up like this .”

Although the Jingnan Kingdom scout was furious in his heart, he still nodded, moved forward silently, stabbed the man's neck on the ground with his knife, twisted his wrist, and pulled it out quickly.

Not long after, the three cavalry scouts returned with the head of the inescapable cavalryman of the Wuling Kingdom in their hands, and the headless body was placed on the back of an auxiliary horse.

The young soldier reached out to take the saber handed over by a subordinate scout, gently put it back into the scabbard, walked to the headless corpse, and found a stack of military intelligence collected by the other party.

Leaning on his horse, the young soldier looked through the intelligence carefully. When he remembered something, he raised his head and ordered: "After my brother's body was collected, the enemy scouts beheaded him, collected the body, dug a pit and buried it."

A strong scout actually complained: "Gu Biaochang, this kind of dirty work is done by the nearby garrison."

The young soldier smiled, "I won't let you do it in vain. For my two heads, you should discuss who you should give this time."

Cheers all over the place.

In the end, the scouts from Jingnan Kingdom with astonishing combat power roared away.

On the tree in the dense forest beside the road, Sui Jingcheng's face was pale, and she didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

Chen Pingan asked: "Why didn't you ask me to save people?"

Sui Jingcheng just shook his head.

The two led their horses out of the dense forest. After Chen Ping got on his horse, he turned his head and looked at the end of the road. The young soldier unexpectedly appeared in the distance and stopped his horse. Nodding his head, he turned the horse's head and left in silence.

Sui Jingcheng asked: "It's a master of the rivers and lakes hidden in the army."

Chen Ping lightly squeezed the horse's belly, one person and one rider slowly moved forward, shaking his head and said: "It's not long before he entered the three realms, it should be the realm he survived in the battle on the battlefield, it's amazing."

Sui Jingcheng was a little puzzled.

Because for a sword fairy who casually beheaded Xiao Shuye, how can a frontier soldier who is no more than the third realm of martial arts be worthy of the saying "remarkable"

Chen Pingan said: "All the people on the top of the mountain, probably most of them, have come here step by step."

The two riders rode side by side, and because they were not in a hurry, the hooves of the horses were light and not in a hurry. Sui Jingcheng asked curiously: "What about the rest?"

Chen Ping smiled and said, "Good luck."

Sui Jingcheng was speechless.

Chen Pingan said: "There are some things that you didn't have when you were born, and maybe you don't have them in this life. This is something that can't be helped, you have to accept your fate."

After a while, Chen Ping smiled and said: "But it doesn't matter, there are still many things that can be won by ourselves. If we keep staring at those things that are destined to not exist, we will really have nothing."

Sui Jingcheng thought it made sense.

But when she thought about her life situation, she felt a little guilty.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "Isn't it better to be born with it? There is nothing to be embarrassed about."

Sui Jingcheng probably felt that he had benefited a lot. After a moment of silence, he turned his head and smiled and said, "Senior, just let me say a few words from the bottom of my heart."

Chen Pingan said, "Shut up."

After Mi Li, Sui Jingcheng's eyes were filled with resentment, and he pursed his lips.

The two riders continued to travel north.

I have seen the tragic fight in a narrow road, and later I also saw the beautiful scene of the child rushing to chase the yellow butterfly, flying into the cauliflower and finding nowhere to find it.

There is also the noise of a group of rural children chasing the figures of their two riders.

On the top of a famous mountain peak, in the setting sun on the top of the mountain, they accidentally met a monk who was hovering against the wind near an ancient pine tree beside the cliff, spreading rice paper and slowly drawing.When I saw them, I just smiled and nodded in greeting, and then the master of painting on the mountain took care of painting ancient pine trees by himself, and finally left quietly in the night.

Sui Jingcheng raised his eyes to look at the distant figure of the Qi trainer.

Chen Pingan started to walk the pile.

After Sui Jingcheng looked away, he asked cautiously: "Senior, if I have cultivated the Immortal Technique, if I encounter that kind of frontier fighting again, can I save people if I want to?"

Chen Pingan said: "Of course. But you have to think about it, whether you can bear the cause and effect that you can't imagine, for example, the scout was rescued by you and fled back to Wuling Kingdom, and the spy information was successfully handed over to the general of the frontier army." , It may be put on hold, useless, it may cause a quarrel on the border, and hundreds of thousands of people will die, or it may even affect the whole body.

Sui Jingcheng fell silent.

Chen Ping kept walking, and said slowly: "Thus, people who practice the Tao, stay away from the world of mortals, are not all indifferent and hard-hearted. It doesn't matter if you don't understand these for the time being. I also try to change after I really practice. A kind of vision, looking at the world at the bottom of the mountain, I slowly figured it out. I played with you earlier in the small town on the top of Zhengrongfeng, did you forget? In that chess game, who do you think should be rescued and who should be helped? Lin Shu, who is facing the emperor, is still the scholar who has figured out his own way of life, or those young people who died in the hall of Zhengrongmen. It seems that the last type of people should be saved the most. Have you ever thought about saving them, Lin Shu? What to do, what to do about the scholar's great cause of rejuvenating the country, and a little further, the emperor of Jinfei Kingdom and the former emperor, regardless of whether people are good or bad, who has contributed more to the life of a country, do you want to know those who know the truth? , People from the rivers and lakes who are still willing to die generously for the former prince, what should you do? You are a good person, high-spirited, with a sword like a rainbow, very happy?"

Sui Jingcheng nodded slightly, sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, with the breeze blowing on her face, she took off the fence, and the black hair on her forehead and the hair on the sideburns fluttered unsteadily.

Chen Pingan came to her side, but did not sit down, "It's not my opinion to be a good person, and it's not my opinion to do good deeds. So, there is nothing wrong with being a Taoist, and you can see more and further."

Chen Pingan took out the trekking stick that hadn't been seen for a long time, leaned on the stick with both hands, and shook it lightly, "But when there are more people practicing Taoism, there will be some troubles, because there will be more and more strong people who pursue absolute freedom." And these people, even if they just make a slight move once or twice, it will be an earth-shaking movement to the world. Sui Jingcheng, let me ask you, will a stool or chair shake after sitting for a long time?"

Sui Jingcheng thought for a while, "It should definitely be."

Chen Pingan turned his head and looked, "I've never seen a chair that wobbles in my life."

Sui Jingcheng didn't speak, but blinked, with an innocent look on his face.

Chen Ping said helplessly: "I have never seen it before."

Sui Jingcheng was a little ashamed.

The Sui family is a first-class wealthy family in the Wuling Kingdom.

Chen Pingan rubbed his chin and said with a smile, "How can I go on talking?"

So he put away his walking stick and continued walking.

Sui Jingcheng was a little disappointed, but also a little happy for no reason.

She couldn't figure it out herself, but what did it matter.

Anyway, it was still far away from the fairy family ferry in Luying Country, and they were not walking fast.

She suddenly turned her head and smiled and asked, "Senior, I want to drink."

The man said: "If you spend money to buy it, you can discuss it, otherwise you won't talk about it."

She smiled and said, "I will buy it no matter how expensive it is."

As a result, the man shook his head and said, "It looks like he owes money on credit, so don't talk about it."

Sui Jingcheng sighed, and fell back on the ground. The sky was dotted with stars, like the most beautiful inlay of treasures, hanging above the lights of thousands of families in the world.
