Sword comes

Chapter 528 The Present and Future of Aquarius

The sage Ruan Qiong, who had disappeared for a long time, finally returned home. He first went to the shop by the Longxu River and met his disciple Xu Xiaoqiao. The unruly ghost was thrown out of the boundary, and Ruan Qiong returned to his mountain. The twelve disciples who were taken after Dong Gu and Xu Xiaoqiao were called together by the second brother Dong Gu, and asked them to perform martial arts one by one. Ruan Qiong remained expressionless, and did not point out any specific swordsmanship to the group of named disciples. He sat on the bench, and after reading it, he got up to forge iron and forge swords.Let the group of registered disciples who were originally high-spirited feel uneasy.

The elder sister who likes to wear blue clothes didn't show up from the beginning to the end.

Fourth Senior Brother Xie Ling was present, sighed, and returned to his house to continue his practice.

As soon as Ruan Qiong showed up, people kept rushing to Longquan Sword Sect, hoping to be favored by the immortal family at the head of this sect.

There are young children who were escorted by the powerful family of Dali, and there are also teenagers and girls who came alone, and there are many Shanzawa Yexiu who hope to become enshrined guests of the mountain.

A mix of fish and dragons.

This made Dong Gu, Ruan Qiong's nominal big disciple, a little tireless.

Dong Gu not only wants to be the half-master of the twelve fellow juniors who have not yet recorded the genealogy of the patriarch hall, but also has to manage the affairs of the sect, not to mention the 12 people who are already in the Longquan Sword Sect. After practicing for a period of time, the level of aptitude and talent is almost clear to each other, and the human nature is gradually revealed. Some people think that their talent in sword practice is not as good as others, so they are distracted by human relationships, and some practice hard but can't find the right way. , the slow progress in swordsmanship, there are those who are respectful and modest on the mountain, but like to call themselves the children of the sword sect when they go down the mountain, and the innate sword embryo whose realm is advancing by leaps and bounds and far surpassing his peers, has privately asked Dong Gu to learn more Feng Xue Temple's superior swordsmanship.

As for those immortal sects who built mansions in the mountains to the west, they often visited Shenxiu Mountain. Naturally, they still needed Dong Gu to come forward to make connections, which was a very energy-consuming and time-consuming matter.Senior sister Ruan Xiu will definitely not pay attention to her, junior sister Xu Xiaoqiao is cold-tempered and naturally dislikes socializing, Xie Ling is naturally even more unwilling to say nice things to others with a smile.

If it wasn't for the fact that Longquan Sword Sect didn't need to work hard on money, Dong Gu would have regretted it, and would have taken the initiative to pray with his master Ruan Qiong for the opening of the peak, and then retreated to practice in a self-righteous manner.It is a rule Dong Gu made for himself that he must have a Nascent Soul within a hundred years.After all, unlike Xu Xiaoqiao, who was one of the sword cultivators of Fengxue Temple earlier in the morning, although Dong Gu is the first disciple on the Longquan Sword Genealogy, he is not a sword cultivator. This is actually a very unruly thing.

Ruan Qiong didn't mind, but Dong Gu felt extremely guilty about it, so Dong Gu thought of the most stupid way, not sword repair, then use realm to make up for it.

As for the younger brother Xie Ling, he has conceived a natal flying sword and is now being nurtured.Not only that, but the patriarch of the Xie clan, that is, Xie Shi, the Heavenly Lord of Beiju Luzhou who showed the demeanor of suppressing a continent by one person, presented this descendant of Taoye Lane with two treasures on the mountain one after another. The relic of Beiju Luzhou Sword Immortal, named "Peach Leaf", is a natal flying sword left behind by that sword celestial soldier after he was disarmed. Although it is not Xie Ling's natal flying sword, once it is refined into a natal object After that, one can imagine the power of the Sword Immortal relic.

There is also a Yangjian gourd named "Full Moon", which has a very high rank.

Dong Gu knew very well that Xie Ling, his junior brother, did not see him as a senior at all. It didn't mean that Xie Ling was defiant and domineering because of his family background. There is no slightest disdain for his identity, Xie Ling can help on weekdays, and he never shirks, Xie Ling will take the initiative to teach swordsmanship for Dong Gu during the critical period of cultivation after he has entered the Golden Core Realm, this Xie's elder sister, Can't find any flaws.

It's just that Xie Linggen's bones and good luck are so good, on the mountain, he only has Ruan Xiu in his eyes, and Xie Ling, on the mountain, only looks at a handful of young people including Ma Kuxuan.

At the level of Dong Gu Xie Ling, the diet on the mountain is no longer grains and miscellaneous grains, but mostly follow the recipes carefully compiled by hundreds of Chinese medicine masters to prepare three meals a day, which actually consumes a lot of money.

It's just that Longquan Jianzong has a big family business and few disciples.Ruan Qiong is the No. 1 first-class worshiper of the Great Li Dynasty, and can receive a large amount of salary from the imperial court every year.As for Dong Gu, since he was in the Golden Core Realm, he walked through Shujian Lake in his early years, and earned a lot of credit for nothing without making a move. He has a reputation with Dali Nianganlang, so he also has a considerable amount of official salary.

That day Ruan Qiong left Jianlu, cooked a table of meals by himself, and Dudu called Dong Gu.

When Dong Gu saw the dishes from the market on the table, he knew that the elder sister would definitely arrive.

Sure enough, Ruan Xiu entered the room soon, and sat beside Ruan Qiong, taking care of the meal. Dong Gu, of course, sat with his back to the door, facing Master Ruan Qiong.

"Eat slowly, no one will rob you."

Ruan Qiong naturally put a chopsticks of braised pork in her daughter's bowl, and then said to Dong Gu, "I heard that Wu Yuan, the former county guard, was transferred out of Xinzhou?"

Dong Gu immediately put down his chopsticks, and said respectfully: "After Longquan County was promoted to Longzhou, this disciple of the national teacher did not follow the steps to become the governor of Longzhou, but moved to the former Zhuying Dynasty territory south of Guanhu Academy , near the foot of the Dali Xinzhong Mountain, continue to serve as a prefect."

They all guessed that Wu Yuan was put on high hopes by the national teacher back then, and she came here to take the lead in expanding the territory. She never wanted to be squeezed out by the four major surnames and ten clans in the town, and suffered a lot of soft nails, although she was later promoted from county magistrate to county However, the masters of the National Teacher have long been dissatisfied, so Wu Yuan, who has no credit but hard work this time, was relegated to a foreign country by seemingly mediocre.

Longquan County was promoted to Longzhou, covering a vast area, with four counties under its jurisdiction: Celadon, Baoxi, Sanjiang, and Xianghuo.

The town still belongs to Huaihuang County.

County Magistrate Yuan has now taken advantage of the trend and been promoted to be the sheriff of Qingci County. Cao Duzao, the supervisor of the Dragon Kiln, is still the original official position, but the Ministry of Rites has quietly revised the official rank of the supervisor, which is equivalent to that of a county governor. Therefore, the two superiors The young Junyan with Zhu Guo's surname is actually promoted, it's just that one is in the public eye and the other is not well-known.

The governor of Longzhou is an outsider in the officialdom of Dali. He comes from Huang Tingguo, a vassal state. His name is Wei Li. He was born in the Han clan. This surprised Dali Temple Hall. Afterwards, rumors circulated in the capital. It was said that the candidate was hand-picked by the Minister of the Dali Ministry, so there was no dispute. system?Anyway, His Majesty the Emperor didn't say a word, and the Ministry of Rites didn't make a fuss. Who would dare to jump around? Do you really think that Old Shangshu Guan is a vegetarian?There are not many Dali officials who can argue with Cui Guoshi on reason and win the quarrel.

In addition to the changes in the officialdom, the three city gods in the prefecture, county and county also have a fixed number. The two city gods in the county and county are local heroic spirits recommended by the two neighboring states. Candidates for the gods of mountains and rivers, but under normal circumstances, they are destined not to have a good position for them. This time, they are inexplicably appointed as the City God of Longzhou jurisdiction, which is an enviable fat job.

And as the first city god of Longzhou with the highest god status, the truth of this city god has come to light, and there has been a lot of commotion in the Dali officialdom.

Because the city god is not a candidate for the recommendation of the two major surnames, but a small ancestral temple called Mantou Mountain at the confluence of the Xiuhua and Okinawa rivers.

Ruan Qiong said slowly: "It may not be a bad thing for Wu Yuan to stay away from Dali's native land."

Dong Gu didn't know much about the inside story of Dali Temple, so he didn't dare to say anything.

However, Dong Gu still felt a little regretful about Wu Yuan's departure, because the young prefect was very good at being a man, and Dong Gu appreciated the way he dealt with Longquan Jianzong.

Fortunately, as the new governor of Baoxi County, his name is Fu Yu. He was the first assistant official who followed Wu Yuan to enter the small town's county government. It was only when he was surprised to find out that this Fu Junshou turned out to be the eldest son of the Fu family, a powerful clan from the Dali Dynasty.

After Fu Yu was promoted to be the sheriff of Baoxi County, he soon visited Longquan Jianzong, and Dong Gu had a very happy chat with him, which was considered a good thing.

Ruan Qiong said: "In the future, you don't care about the arrival and departure from the mountain top. As long as you don't push away this kind of thing, you will be busy all your life. How can you practice? The foundation of Longquan Sword Sect is not how Will be human."

Ruan Qiong glanced at Dong Gu, who was a little trembling, probably mistakenly thinking that he was not satisfied with his eldest disciple.

Ruan Qiong rarely had a smiling face, "I accepted you as a disciple, not for you to do chores. Practice is divided into uphill and downhill. Now you are half a sticky guy. Every time you encounter a small bottleneck on the top of the mountain, you don't have to go back and forth. I was busy on the mountain, so I took this opportunity to go out to practice. I usually take the initiative to communicate with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Now that the world is chaotic in Aquarius Continent, after you go down the mountain, you may be able to bring a few disciples back. Next time, you will communicate with the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Okay, let’s go to the Ganzhou mountain boundary first, anyway, you still have to win over the relationship with Fengxue Temple.”

Dong Gu nodded with relief.

My heart is full of gratitude to this master.

The master's few words not only relieved his pressure, but also had a profound meaning of preaching, and more importantly, it was equivalent to gaining the approval of the monks of Fengxue Temple in disguise.

Ruan Qiong suddenly picked up the chopsticks and slapped off the chopsticks that her daughter wanted to reach for the last piece of braised pork, "Save some for Dong Gu."

At this moment, Ruan Xiu has filled up the bowl of rice.

Dong Gu didn't dare to laugh.

Ruan Qiong said to Dong Gu: "What do you think of the twelve registered disciples?"

Dong Gu then described the talents and dispositions of the 12 people one by one.

Ruan Qiong looked at his daughter.

Ruan Xiugang picked up a large dish with chopsticks, shook it lightly, and picked up less.

Ruan Qiong looked at the dish that had almost bottomed out, and simply pushed the dish to her.

Ruan Xiu smiled and asked, "Father, why don't you drink today?"

Ruan Qiong shook her head, and said suddenly: "In the future, when you go to Longji Mountain to practice cultivation, remember not to conflict with the monks of Zhenwu Mountain. And no matter what strange things happen, don't be surprised. Dad knows it well."

Ruan Xiu nodded.

Ruan Qiong asked about Da Li's recent situation.

The Longquan Sword Sect has the most detailed landscape report on Baopingzhou, which was formulated by the Dali court and sent to Piyun Mountain and Shenxiu Mountain in Longquan County on a regular basis.

Ruan Qiong said without reason: "Actually, the disciple I most wanted to recruit back then was that Liu Xianyang."

Dong Gu had heard of this person.

Chen Ping'an and Ni Ping Lane are best friends.

He almost died at the hands of the old ape who moved the mountain in Zhengyang Mountain.

For this reason, Liu Xianyang and Chen Ping'an had forged a death feud with Zhengyang Mountain and the Xu family of Qingfeng City.

When the Xu family sold the already built Xianjia mansion to the Dali court at a low price, it was not out of fear of Chen Ping'an.Later, the Xu family in Qingfeng City took advantage of the wind and took some measures to make up for it. They married a prostitute daughter to a concubine son of the Yuan family in Shangzhu Kingdom, and even contributed money and effort to help Yuan's children control a border iron cavalry. .

After all, no one could have imagined that the boy from Mud Bottle Lane would be able to get to where he is today step by step.

Ruan Qiong and Dong Gu just ate a few chopsticks for a symbolic meal.

Then the master and apprentice began to walk.

Dong Gu said softly: "Wei Mountain God held another night banquet, and the shop left behind by Baoluzhai at the Niujiao Mountain Ferry has reopened. The products sold are mountain worship rites from the mountain and water gods and monks from all over the place."

Ruan Qiong smiled and said, "It seems that there is a shortage of money in Luopo Mountain."

Compared with Dong Gu in the Jindan state, Ruan Qiong is not only in the jade state, but also a sage in charge, so he sees more lofty and thorough. Wei Bo's breakthrough this time belongs to the kind without bottlenecks.To be precise, it was Wei Bo's bottleneck in the upper five realms that had been broken long ago, and it was broken in an extremely ingenious and concealed way. Ruan Qiong came to this conclusion only after long-term observation.What Wei Bo pursued was the Jade Raw Realm that was at his fingertips, which was more flawless, not whether he could break through the realm.

So the bamboo knife that the man made on Qidun Mountain was very accurate.

Ruan Qiong felt melancholy in his heart.

In the general sense, great sword immortals have high or low sword skills and sword intent. In fact, the upper five realm sword cultivators with a slightly lower level can barely see the general gap.

But some people have some swords, and it really takes many years to see the strength.

Great power but not obvious.

In the final analysis, maybe the sword still has to fall on the heart to see the skill.

Ruan Qiong hoped that one day in the future, Longquan Sword Sect would have such a sword cultivator, even if it was later.

Dong Gu quickly bid farewell and left.

Ruan Qiong looked into the distance.

The boundary of Beiyue, as the place where the dragons thrive in Dali, Wei Bo, the mountain god of Beiyue, the only mountain and water god in Aquarius Continent who can compete with it, is not in Zhongyue, but Nanyue, a female mountain god.

Today, Dali Zhongyue is the old Zhongyue of the Zhu Ying Dynasty, and the mountain is still upright.

Xu Ruo, a Mohist ranger and swordsman, still sits on the top of the mountain, next to the god of Zhongyue.

What Ruan Qiong was staring at was the new Xiyue Ganzhou Mountain. Since it was not too far from Fengxue Temple, and Ganzhou Mountain had never been included in the list of the Five Sacred Mountains of any dynasty, Ruan Qiong's trip was the easiest, so this The number one swordsmith in Aquarius Continent, he even went to Fengxue Temple to reminisce with his seniors and brothers. This is actually the new Emperor Dali deliberately gifting Longquan Sword Sect with a meritorious service to help the dragon.

Compared with Xu Ruo's undercurrents and murderous intentions, Ruan Qiong's nothing happened, but Dali Xindongyue Qishan's side was in a dark place, and most of Dali's first-class priests , everyone is a Jindan Nascent Soul Earth Immortal, just during the Dali Emperor's Mountain Sealing Ceremony, there was an extremely tragic fight, monks from all over the world flocked to try to go up the mountain, slaughtered the Dali envoy, and finally Even the new emperor's imperial seal document of "gold, mud and silver rope, and seal of seal" was almost smashed to pieces by a hostile Nascent Soul cultivator. After repelling those cultivators, Dali Priest also suffered heavy casualties.

Afterwards, the right servant of the Dali Ministry of Rites patrolled the sky on behalf of the sky, and it was another siege that was clearly a trap. There were still many monks from various destroyed countries entering the game, and they died generously. In a radius of thousands of miles, the aura was extremely chaotic, and then there were sporadic monk turmoil, but Qishan finally became the new Dongyue of Dali through the ups and downs along the way, and the god sitting in it was one of the old five mountains of Dali.

One of the bigger things than the conferring of the Five Sacred Mountains is that Dali has already begun to select a site in the south of Aquarius Continent and build an accompanying capital.

Song Jixin sealed the royal vassal in the old dragon city, and when the accompanying capital was built, Song Jixin, who was named Song Mu on the genealogy of the clan mansion, would hold the accompanying capital remotely.

One of several locations is the old capital of the Zhuying Dynasty. The advantage is that it does not need to consume too much national power. The disadvantage is that it is too close to Guanhu Academy. As for the more hidden temple taboo, some people naturally do not want it The new vassal king Song Mu, relying on the support of the accompanying capital and the old dragon city, conquered half of Aquarius Island in one fell swoop.

However, where it will end up, the Dali court has yet to decide.

As the chief priest of Dali, Ruan Qiong can make suggestions, and the new emperor of Dali Song will definitely listen to his opinions, but Ruan Qiong will only remain silent.

Ruan Xiu appeared beside Ruan Qiong.

Ruan Qiong, who went out of the mountain and walked through the Fengxue Temple this time, said softly: "When my father was young, the masters of Fengxue Temple thought that the world would not change too much, and we just need to practice hard, so we juniors have the same idea. .Now all the old people are feeling that they can't see what Aquarius Island will be like in just a few decades. Xiuxiu, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"

Ruan Xiu thought for a while, and answered the wrong question, "Longquan Sword Sect lacks a paradise of its own."

Ruan Qiong's expression became serious, and he separated a small world with the sage's supernatural powers, "There are two things. First, the Longji Mountain's rocky cliff of Zhanlongtai was divided into three parts, which belonged to our Longquan Sword Sect and Fengxue Temple respectively. Zhenwu Mountain. But you may not be aware that the Zhanlong Terrace that Fengxue Temple is responsible for guarding and mining is actually almost an empty shell. As for this matter, as long as the patriarch doesn't care about it, it's equivalent to acquiescing that the dragon-slaying platform has disappeared. So when you go to Jiemao to practice there, you don't need to pay attention to it."

"The second thing is what you said is a blessed place. In fact, Yang's shop can be bought and sold. There are ready-made ones, but the price is probably more unacceptable. In fact, the price is okay to talk about. The worst thing is to pay on credit."

Speaking of this, Ruan Qiong glanced at her daughter, worried, "Father still doesn't want extra problems."

After all, I still don't want Ruan Xiu to enter the game too early.

Everything Ruan Qiong did, from leaving the Fengxue Temple to serving as a saint in the Lizhu Cave Heaven at the cost of wasting his cultivation, and then standing on the top of the mountain, being invited by the Dali Song Clan to serve as an enshrinement, and so on, everything was for his daughter.

Ruan Xiu said, "Father, it's okay. Do you understand what kind of temper Old Man Yang has?"

Ruan Qiong laughed and said, "Father really doesn't know."

Except for Qi Jingchun, there are so many saints from all walks of life who lived here in the history of Lizhu Dongtian, probably none of them would dare to say that they knew what the old man was thinking.

Ruan Qiong is certainly no exception.

Ruan Xiu looked at the small town, took out her embroidered handkerchief, twisted a piece of pastry, and said vaguely: "It's very simple, whoever is purer and who has the hope of going higher, old man Yang will bet heavily on whoever is. I think I'm not too bad, so dad can try it out. As for how to ask for a price, why not just tell the old man that no matter how big the ready-made cave is, our Longquan Sword Sect wants it. As for what Ruan Xiu needs to do in the future, it depends. Ruan Xiu's mood."

Ruan Qiong asked doubtfully, "Is this all right?"

Ruan Xiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, probably because the pastry tasted good and she was in a good mood, she clapped her hands and said, "Try it."

Ruan Qiong hesitated for a moment, "Is that really the case?"

Ruan Xiu nodded.

She was about to reach out.

Ruan Qiong has cast

A sage with supernatural powers quietly appeared in the backyard of Yang's shop.

Ruan Xiu sighed, and wanted her father to bring some pastries back.

After less than half a stick of incense, Ruan Qiong returned to Shenxiu Mountain with a strange face, looked at her daughter, shook her head, and said with emotion: "Is there really such a good thing as a pie in the sky?"

When doing business with old man Yang, one thing can be guaranteed, even more secure than any landscape oath in the world, that is, the words spoken by this old man are accurate, and there is no need to have any doubts.

Ruan Xiu glanced at the sky, thinking that it would be nice if some pastries were dropped.

----

The Old Dragon City located at the southernmost tip of Aquarius Continent, after Fu Nanhua married the daughter of the Yunlin Jiang family, and the city lord fought against the warriors of the Nine Realms, for Qi practitioners, it was just a short breather before welcoming them. A bigger thing is coming.

Da Li Song Mu, as the younger brother of the current Emperor Da Li with the same father and mother, has now become the most powerful and powerful vassal king of the Song family, who happens to be a vassal in the old dragon city.The other sons of the former emperor also won the title of vassal king, but they were all three-character kings. They left Dali to go to the major ruined countries, and the lands were sealed off. Scary to the point.

This should have been bad news for the free and undisciplined old Dragon City, but the big families including the Fu family seemed to have communicated with the Dali court a long time ago. On the vast territory to the north of Dragon City and south of the Zhuying Dynasty, the business has flourished, and compared with the previous ones, the boundaries are clear. Now the old Dragon City has begun to cooperate with each other. For example, the Fan family They have a close relationship with the Sun family. No matter who is planning to make money with whom, the only thing in common is that the business routes of these old Dragon City clans have Dali to help clear the way. All Dali cavalry and Song vassal states along the way asked for help.

So no one was surprised when the Fu family gave up half of the inner city of the Old Dragon City as Song Mu's vassal prince's residence.

However, as an important hub of Yizhou, the business of the Old Dragon City was affected to a certain extent at first. Many Qi practitioners who regarded the Old Dragon City as a paradise and a nest for selling gold quietly left to wait and see what happened. Tong Yezong and Yu Guizong of Dazhou expressed their attitudes one after another. The business of the Old Dragon City will soon return to its peak, and the business is prosperous, even worse. With the status quo, many monks returned to the city one after another to continue enjoying themselves.

One day, a young man who took off the feudal prince's python robe left the feudal mansion and took his maidservant to a medicine shop in a back alley in the outer city.

There are no retinues, because there is no need.

A four-legged snake with horns on its head curled up in the young man's sleeve.

What's more, the head of the Fu family in the old dragon city is his personal offering.

The pharmacy, which has been closed for several years, has just reopened. The shopkeeper is an old man, and there is also a young man in white clothes with a mole between his eyebrows. Her lips are red and her teeth are white, but her eyes are slack and she can't speak, which is a pity.

Song Jixin walked into the alley, feeling the coolness of autumn, and the maidservant beside him looked more and more brilliant.

When the master and servant crossed the threshold of the pharmacy, the old shopkeeper arrived for the first time. He didn't recognize the identity of the young man in front of him, and asked with a smile, "But to buy medicine? Customers can choose whatever they want, and the price is written."

Song Jixin frowned, glanced at the old man, and began to choose herbs.

Zhigui moved a stool from the pharmacy and sat at the door.

The old man smiled, these two little guys really don't see each other.

Now he is not afraid of anything, he dares to walk across the entire Aquarius Continent, of course the prerequisite is to follow the boy in white.

This old shopkeeper is Chen Xiaoyong, the Liuli Immortal who failed to plan in Yanzhi County, Caiyi Country. Not only did he fail to obtain the Seal of the City God, the Heavenly Master hidden by Shen Wen, the Jincheng God, but he almost died, and he almost lost his life. Can't keep it.Fortunately, Master Guoshi and Luboting, neither side cared about his omissions, which is normal. Master Cui is a mountaintop figure who is determined to annex a continent, so he doesn't mind the gains and losses of a moment, a place, and a thing, but When the young man in white found his hiding place, Liuli Xianweng was still miserable. How miserable was it? It was so miserable that the other party plotted every bit of bad water. Now he only knows that this "boy" surnamed Cui ", is the person in charge of all the southern spies in Dali.

Song Jixin's heart rippled, and after hearing that sentence, he began to walk towards the backyard of the pharmacy.

As soon as the bamboo curtain was raised, Liuli Xianweng hurriedly said: "Guest, you can't go later."

Song Jixin smiled and said, "My name is Song Mu."

Liuli Xianweng thought for a while, smiled awkwardly and said, "Guests do as they please."

Song Jixin turned his head to look at the door, "Not together?"

Zhigui turned his head and smiled, "I'll forget it."

She is only afraid of three people in her life, one is dead, one is no longer in this world, half of the last one is in the backyard.

Song Jixin went to the backyard alone, walked towards the main room where the door was open, walked slowly, and straightened his clothes before entering.

He, Song Jixin, was able to live to this day because the person in the room made the decision together with his uncle Song Changjing.

As for his mother and the emperor's "elder brother", he probably didn't mind that he re-recorded and erased it on the genealogy of the clan mansion.

cross the threshold.

The white-clothed boy seemed to regard the main hall as a study, and on the table of the Eight Immortals spread out a picture of Riding on a plank road in a snowy night.

He also opened a poorly printed Jianghu Romance novel published by a private bookstore, with small bronze animal paperweights pressed on the pages of the book, and most of them were annotated with ink brushes.

Song Jixin made a bow and said, "Song Mu pays homage to the national teacher."

Cui Dongshan was lying on the table, his feet were twisted together, his posture was lazy, he turned his head to look at Song Jixin, and said with a smile: "The town has been around for many years, and finally we meet again."

Song Jixin said respectfully: "If it weren't for the kindness of the national teacher, Song Jixin would have no chance to become the Dali clan, let alone become a king and become a vassal of the old dragon city."

Cui Dongshan's words are not surprising, "Back then, you and Zhao Yao, in fact, Qi Jingchun both had gifts. Zhao Yao, in order to survive, made a deal with me and gave up the spring seal. The gains and losses in it are not worth it now." It’s easy to say. As for you, it’s the books that Qi Jingchun left you. It’s a pity that you don’t care about it yourself and don’t bother to turn it over. In fact, Qi Jingchun left all the reading experience of Confucianism and Law in those books. As long as you are sincere, you will naturally It can be seen that Qi Jingchun is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to adapt. She has high expectations for you. Confucianism outside and law inside, who did the trick? If you have acquired those knowledge, your uncle and I may make you wear more clothes Claw out."

Song Jixin looked as usual.

Cui Dongshan nodded, "He has a better temperament than Zhao Yao, no wonder Zhao Yao always admired you back then, and he is not as good as you in chess."

Cui Dongshan pointed to a stool.

Song Jixin sat on the bench.

Cui Dongshan was lying on the table all the time, as if he was chatting with others, and said with a smile: "Song Yuzhang's death is really unworthy. The method used by the first emperor to build the covered bridge is not visible. After all, so many dragon sons of the Dali Song family died. Longsun, Song Yuzhang, the superintendent, not only accepts you when he sees you, but quickly draws a line with you and spends his life in the Ministry of Rites. On the contrary, he really treats you, the prince, as his illegitimate child. How to find it?"

Song Jixin's cheeks moved slightly, it should be a slight grit of his teeth.

Cui Dongshan laughed loudly, and said, "You Song Jixin has a big heart, and you can see far away whether you want to sit in the dragon chair or not, but you are also small-minded. So far, you haven't been able to let go of Song Yuzhang, a little desolate mountain god." .”

Song Jixin clenched his fists and remained silent.

Cui Dongshan asked with a smile: "Ma Kuxuan is not happy about being entangled with your maid?"

Song Jixin nodded, "I know that Zhigui has no thoughts about him, but it is a disgusting thing after all. So when the situation allows me to kill Ma Kuxuan, I will kill this bitch from Xinghua Lane with my own hands. kind."

Cui Dongshan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Bitch? Don't say such ignorant big words, you, a descendant of the Dali Song family, the so-called nobles, are the cheapest in the eyes of Ma Kuxuan. What's more, Zhenwu Mountain must I want to protect Ma Kuxuan to the death, besides, Ma Kuxuan's cultivation speed is recognized by Qi practitioners all over the continent. Therefore, the more you delay the situation, the less you will have it."

Song Jixin shook his head and said: "Too sharp, things will be reversed. Since I am a secular vassal, my status is hard to change. Anyway, I don't need to fight him. There are many people who kill people in the world besides fists."

Ma Kuxuan killed two Jindan Sword Cultivators in a row in the Zhuying Dynasty. Once he played every step of the way, playing with each other, and once he almost fought for his life.

Ma Kuxuan's aptitude for cultivating Taoism revealed in the two successive battles, vaguely became the well-deserved number one genius in Aquarius Continent's practice.

Before Ma Kuxuan, there were only two of the proud sons of heaven who were recognized and honored on this mountain. In hundreds of years, there were only two, one was Li Tuanjing from Fenglei Garden, and the other was Wei Jin from Fengxue Temple.

If Li Tuanjing hadn't been trapped by love, there had always been a rumor on the mountain that once he entered the Jade Raw Realm as a sword cultivator, he would have a chance to successfully enter the Immortal Realm, or even the Ascension Realm!At that time, Shen Gaozong will not be able to suppress Fenglei Garden, let alone Zhengyang Mountain.Therefore, Li Tuanjing's grievances and hatreds back then were actually full of inside stories, and Zhengyang Mountain was definitely not the only one involved.It's just that these truths, with the death of Li Tuanjing's soldiers, have all become a thing of the past.Feng Shui took turns, and Zhengyang Mountain, which had been suppressed by Li Tuanjing for a long time, finally raised his eyebrows and began to stabilize Fenglei Garden. , there is only one Fengleiyuan supported by Liu Baqiao, and the old sword cultivators in Zhengyang Mountain should have asked Jianfengleiyuan time and time again.

Cui Dongshan tapped his fingers on the table lightly, lost in thought.

Song Jixin didn't have any impatience.

He never thought that being the King of Dali Fan made him qualified to stand up in front of this person. In fact, even if he changed his clothes and sat on the dragon chair, it would be the same.

Cui Dongshan looked out of the house and said for no reason: "A bird born in a cage will think that it is a sickness to flap its wings and fly."

"Chickens are pecking at the ground, and falcons are flying by in the sky, and you start to worry about the grain being robbed."

Song Jixin savored the deep meaning of these two words carefully.

Cui Dongshan sighed, "Let's not talk about these things. In addition to relaxing, I have another serious matter to tell you about this time. You, a feudal lord, can't stay in the old dragon city all the time. Next we The second big battle in Dali is about to kick off. You go to the Zhuying Dynasty and take charge of the construction of the accompanying capital, and build a good relationship with the Mohists by the way. A war that uses war to support war, if it only stops at plunder ,Meaningless."

Song Jixin asked softly: "Dare to ask the national teacher, what is the second match?"

Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "Destruction without the ability to repair and rebuild is all self-destruction, not a long-term solution."

Song Jixin is very smart, and he understands the meaning of the national teacher's words.

Cui Dongshan continued: "The journey of the Dali Iron Cavalry to the south has shattered all the old rules and dynasties. This is just a battlefield on horseback. Next, how will the Dali warrior who got off his horse break our Dali law?" The promulgation of the law is the most important thing. The laws and regulations are dead, so they are placed there, so the key lies in the people. The good and evil of the law is half in the documents and half in the people. It's a test between you, the feudal lord, and His Majesty the Emperor, don't treat the Dao Shangzhu Kingdom, including the old man of Daliguan, as a fool, everyone is looking at you two with wide eyes."

Song Jixin said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your advice, National Teacher."

Cui Dongshan smiled, "Do you know why the first emperor clearly wanted you to be the emperor, but before he died, he asked your uncle to supervise the country? Do you have to put on a posture of passing the throne from brother to brother?"

Song Jixin's face changed slightly.

Cui Dongshan twitched the corners of his mouth, pointed at Song Jixin, "It used to be the first emperor and vassal king Song Changjing, and now it is the new emperor Song He and vassal king Song Mu."

Song Jixin's lips moved slightly, and his face turned pale.

Cui Dongshan said: "Your father has done well enough to be an emperor. As for being a father, I don't think it's bad. At least for you, the first emperor really worked hard. You resent that man deep in your heart. How much is the empress dowager, but the new emperor has reason to resent the former emperor? So Song Yuzhang's knot in your heart is a bit ridiculous. The funny thing is not because of your emotions. It's a very normal emotion. The ridiculous thing is that you don't understand the rules at all. You really think that the one who killed Song Yuzhang was the survivor of the Lu family who did it, and your mother who put the head in a wooden box and sent it to the capital? The first emperor? Clearly Isn’t that right, I can’t even figure it out? How dare you talk nonsense here, relying on the situation, to kill Ma Kuxuan, who seems to be destined by fate?”

Song Jixin stood up, bowed again and bowed, "National teacher taught, Song Jixin has been taught!"

Cui Dongshan glanced at him sideways, and said: "The books Qi Jingchun left you, the knowledge he taught, on the surface, it seems to teach you Confucianism and Law, but in fact, it's just the opposite, but you have no chance to figure it out."

Song Jixin sat down again without saying a word.

Cui Dongshan waved his hand.

Song Jixin stood up, said goodbye and left.

Walk out of the alley with the maid Zhigui.

Cui Dongshan came to the threshold and sat down, yawning.

The old shopkeeper who was wandering around with him by his side ran to the courtyard and asked obsequiously: "Master Cui, is that man really Song Mu, King of Dali Clan?"

Cui Dongshan said: "That kid lied to you, just teasing you."

Liuli Xianweng looked embarrassed, believe it or not?This is a problem.

Cui Dongshan waved his hand, "Continue to be your shopkeeper."

Liuli Xianweng hurriedly left the yard.

Cui Dongshan changed his posture and just lay on the threshold, making pillows with his hands.

The matter of Rouge County in Caiyi Country back then was just a small link in many plans.

Using the bewitched Jin Chenghuang as the thread to affect Caiyi Kingdom is one of the little schemes on the surface. What he and the old bastard really want is more hidden. He wants to use a tactful method that conforms to the rules and the way , The poor guy who was released from Baidi City for thousands of years by the celestial master's talisman should be called Liu Chicheng now, and he has to be attached to the soul of a scholar for the time being.This favor, if the other party doesn't want to repay it, he has to repay it.As for when to repay this kindness, it depends on when Cui Dongshan finds Liu Chicheng.

In the chess game of Aquarius Continent, there are still many such unknown masters.

But for the two of them, they are not really good players, they just play chess normally.

For example, in Qingluan Kingdom, Liu Qingfeng, Li Baozhen, and Wei Liang, who are old friends, what the three of them did in a country has far-reaching significance, and it may even have a future influence that exceeds that of Aquarius. continent by continent.It's just that the three of them don't know much about it now. In the end, the first to understand the meaning may be Liu Qingfeng, who is not a cultivator.

Living in a corner, for more than a hundred years, I have done so many trivial things.

Cui Dongshan sometimes asks himself, what is the significance? If he let it go, the landslides and the ground cracks, and the universe is changed, does Haoran Tianxia have learned enough lessons? Will the final result be better?

Cui Dongshan opened his eyes wide, looking at the scenery just a short distance above his head.

Those who go with the flow are the vast majority of the world.

Be smarter, behave in the world, like to take shortcuts, find convenient ways to save worry and effort, and seek speed in everything, the sooner you can achieve your goal, the better.There is nothing wrong with this, in fact, it is not easy to do this.

But as the sages said, life is like traveling against the road, and I am also a pedestrian.Therefore, some sages also said that the magnificence and strangeness of the world, and all kinds of extraordinary views, often lie in danger and remoteness, and there are few people.

Cui Dongshan sighed.

Everything in the world has been scrutinized all the way, it seems that in the end it is the word "boring".

Ma Kuxuan, who was picked up from the chessboard by Lu Chen and played again.

Song Changjing, a martial artist in the Ten Realms.

Fengxue Temple Sword Immortal Wei Jin.

The young sword cultivator of the Zhuying Dynasty who was blessed by misfortune and carried with him the remnants of civil and military fortunes.

Liu Xianyang who breaks and then stands, who practices swords in his dream.

Shujianhu's Gu Can, who has not changed his temperament but only become smarter and understands how to operate, definitely has the opportunity to become a real field repairer who is more mature than Liu Laocheng.

Li Liu, the co-lord of the rivers and lakes who knew him by birth.

Ruan Xiu.

Wind and Thunder Garden Yellow River.

The hidden chess piece that was carefully cared for by Shen Gaozong and cultivated by Qi Zhen himself.

Xie Ling, who is deeply blessed.

There are also some young people who have not yet stood out or are not well-known, and they may be the mainstay of the future of Aquarius.

Cui Dongshan sat up, stared blankly for a while, and continued to lie down on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Looking away, the Jianghu Romance novel on the table was brought out from the Sui Shanya Academy. When Cui Dongshan had nothing to do, he would flip through a few pages and make a few comments.

Now spread out the pages of the book, among which the writer wrote, "Pick up the sword to take clothes, jump to the house, the tiles are silent, the moon is bright at the time, and go like a bird". It's really the demeanor of a sword fairy."

Cui Dongshan removed the paperweight, spit on his fingertips, twisted the pages and turned them lightly, then turned them back again, glanced at the written words, and did not forget to praise himself, "Good calligraphy, you are worthy of being a disciple of Mr. "

Cui Dongshan raised his head, and there was an ignorant child standing in the next room.

Cui Dongshan walked around the Eight Immortals table with a smile, bent down, touched the little guy's head, and said kindly, "Little Gaocheng, you need to grow up quickly."
