Sword comes

”>

On Gongliu Island, there are still willows in the late autumn.

This island is the main mountain of Zhenjingzong, which is the mountain where the Patriarch Hall was built.

Together with Gongliu Island, the entire Shujian Lake has been under construction for the past year. The dust is flying around, covering the sky and the sun. Water transportation, as well as various fairy masters including farmers and a large number of mountain craftsmen came to work here. In the words of the suzerain Jiang Shangzhen, just don’t save me money for the gods. Every floor tile, every window grille, and every flower garden here must be paid It is the best in Aquarius Continent, and there are hundreds of monks who are especially good at building fairy mansions. Most of them are from Tongye Continent. Zong takes care of everything from the beginning to the end, and Zhongtu will all stay in the Xianjia Inn. In this way, the immortal money spent by Zhenjing Zong on this matter can make many old island sects in Shujian Lake overnight. Time to empty out the family fortune.

Therefore, all the fairy families on the mountain in Aquarius Island knew the second thing, that the Zhenjing Sect was so rich that it was outrageous.

The first thing, of course, is that the Zhenjing sect has three and a half upper five realms.

A female sword fairy from Luzhou in Beiju named Li Cai, the old man of Yuguizong who was expected to be the suzerain of Zhenjingzong, Liu Laocheng of Yupujing, and Liu Laocheng of Qingxia Island, half of Yupujing .

Now Liu Zhimao began to retreat and break through.

Therefore, the islands around Gongliu Island have been closed recently.

There are two people walking slowly along the willow bank, the suzerain Jiang Shangzhen, the chief worshiper Liu Laocheng.

Jiang Shangzhen folded willow sticks and wove them into willow rings, put them on his head, and said with a smile, "I'm gone in the past. Right, brother Liu."

Liu Laocheng didn't speak.

Jiang Shangzhen is a very strange hero, with bloody methods, he is very good at hiding a knife in his smile, but he is very strict with rules. This feeling is not what Jiang Shangzhen said, but what Jiang Shangzhen did in Shujian Lake, the site of the next Jade Emperor. Because, they are all explaining this truth with the monks of the sect. Of course, the rules established by Jiang Shangzhen are very inhumane.For this reason, Guan Yiran, the military general of the Dali Iron Cavalry Garrison, negotiated with Zhenjingzong many times. Li Fuqu, enshrined by Yuanying, often went to the general's mansion to quarrel. Noisy is noisy, no hands.It's not that Li Fuqu has a good temper, but that Jiang Shangzhen warned this woman who seems to be the face of the Zhenjing sect to enshrine, that your life, Li Fuqu, is worthless, and the face of the Zhenjing sect...is not worth anything, the real value in the world, only money.

Jiang Shangzhen’s previous sentimental words, “I’m gone from the past”, actually mean very simple. Since I’m willing to tell you about this matter in person, it means that I, Jiang Shangzhen, knew about Liu Laocheng’s love and grievance back then, but You, Liu Laocheng, can rest assured that there will be no little tricks that disgust you.

Liu Laocheng was not polite, so he was really relieved.

As for Liu Zhimao's success in breaking through the realm, the number of enshrined offerings in the upper five realms of the Zhenjing sect became three.

Because the old man Yu Guizong who announced to the outside world that he was in seclusion was already dead.

At that time, they put on the posture of four people working together to surround and kill, but only two people actually made a move.

Liu Laocheng and Liu Zhimao were only responsible for holding the lineup, or watching the show.

Kill the chickens to warn the monkeys.

It's on this island of Gongliu Island.

Li Cai and Jiang Shangzhen, one drew his sword out of its sheath, and the other sacrificed a willow leaf. After seeing Li Cai, the meritorious old man of Yu Guizong didn't even have the idea of ​​dying with Jiang Shangzhen, a lunatic, but it was a pity that he wanted to escape. And so he died.

The beating was not soul-stirring at all, and even many Gongliu Island monks only noticed that the weather was strange for a moment, and then the world was silent, and the clouds were light and the wind was light and the moon was bright.

Jiang Shangzhen suddenly said: "In the future, when I meet a Taoist priest from the Shenjiao Sect, let my disciples of the Zhenjing Sect show respect and behave like a human being with your tail between your legs. No matter right or wrong, as long as you fight and get beaten to death, the Zhenjing Sect will treat you as nothing. If something happened, and accidentally killed the opponent, the Patriarch of the Realm Realm Sect will cut off the head of this hero, and Li Fuzhen will send it to the God Sect to make amends."

Liu Laocheng nodded and said, "Understood."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said, "Don't you understand?"

Liu Laocheng shook his head.

Not difficult to understand.

The big tree attracts the wind and is the target of public criticism.

The Real Realm Sect has no passion at all in Aquarius Island. It seems to have unlimited scenery, but in fact there are enemies everywhere, such as Dali Song's iron cavalry.

But understanding is all about understanding. Liu Laocheng still admires Jiang Shangzhen, the young suzerain, who is willing to bow his head for this sake.

This Immortal Master Genealogy who holds a blessed land of cloud caves in his hand is simply worse than Shan Zeyexiu.

Jiang Shangzhen sighed, "My current situation is actually the situation of you and Liu Zhimao. We need to strengthen ourselves, accumulate strength, and let the opponent feel that we can control it. I just don't know who the Dali Song Clan will push out in the end. It’s holding back our Real Realm Sect. Everything in Aquarius Continent is good, but this is not good. The Song family is the lord of a continent, a secular dynasty, and there is hope to completely control the mountains and mountains. If it is our Tongye Continent, the Tiangao Emperor Xiao , the cultivators on the mountain are really at ease."

Liu Laocheng smiled and said: "The Shujian Lake in the past is actually the same. The kings and ministers of the surrounding countries are all in danger."

Jiang Shangzhen shook his head, "It's not the same. The lawless place of Shujian Lake is a bit similar to the barbaric land in ancient times. The world is full of monsters, the gods in the sky feed on incense in the world, and the monsters on the ground eat people. It is not a fool who does not know the blessings in the blessings. In fact, almost all of us are no exception."

Jiang Shangzhen walked slowly, "Nowadays, the common people in the world of Haoran talk about the gods of mountains and rivers, the ghosts of flowers and trees, the transformation of monsters, ghosts and ghosts, what are they? It is a place far away in the sky and a dark place, and it is a mountain lake with few people. Ze, even if there are people who are close to us and live with us, they are still bound by extremely cumbersome rules, so they can say with certainty that the place where there are demons haunting is the place where the celestial master releases the sword. In the market, there are peach charms and door gods everywhere. There are ancestral temples with incense and incense, you can go to temples and Taoist temples to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, and there will be various opportunities to visit immortals in the mountains."

Jiang Shangzhen stopped, looked around, took off the willow rings, and threw them into the lake, "Then if one day, we humans, whether we are ordinary people or people who practice Taoism, have to reverse their positions, what will happen? A situation? Are you afraid? Anyway, I, Jiang Shang, am really afraid."

Liu Laocheng said: "I don't think about it."

Jiang Shangzhen nodded and said: "It doesn't matter. Because some people will think. So you and Liu Zhimao can be clean and cultivate your own way. Because even if the world is turned upside down in the future, you can escape and survive. The realm is high enough, and there is always a way for you to retreat and survive. .”

Liu Laocheng frowned.

Jiang Shangzhen asked with a smile: "But what if all the cultivators on the top of the mountain think like you, Liu Laocheng?"

Liu Laocheng shook his head and said, "No."

Jiang Shangzhen scratched his head and sighed: "So this is the most fun place, everything is good, we take it for granted, there is no need to talk and think about it, those are not good, we grit our teeth, and we can think about them for a long time."

Liu Laocheng was a little puzzled, not knowing what the suzerain was talking about with himself.

Jiang Shangzhen has already changed the subject, his mind is relaxed, he no longer has the strange emotion before, and his steps are easy, "In the novels of Jianghu Romance, the friends of heroes are doing good people and good deeds. Even if they die, they die well. In the novels of fairy tales and strange things , people’s hearts are ups and downs, ghosts are rampant, after all, good and evil have their rewards. Liu Laocheng, do you read these miscellaneous books?"

Liu Laocheng shook his head and said, "Never read it."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said, "That's why we need to study more."

Liu Laocheng knew that the suzerain was joking, so naturally he wouldn't take it seriously.

The suzerain is very bored every day. Outside of practicing, he uses blindfolds to wander among the four major cities by the Shujian Lake. Every time he returns, he will buy some playthings for the child who came from the arms of the sword fairy Li Cai to tease the child. , Jiang Shangzhen can spend a long time teaching children to walk. Sometimes Liu Laocheng will feel depressed. Is it Jiang Shangzhen's unpredictable temperament that made him walk to today's high position step by step? With a gradual change in temperament and temperament, the suzerain of today's Zhenjing sect was born.

Jiang Shangzhen walked to a ferry, "Before Liu Zhimao retreated, he asked me for the old land including Qingxia Island and Sulin Island. He planned to give it to his disciple Gu Can. Because he didn't know that the land near Yunlou City I made a special trip to allocate the land to Gu Can. But Gu Can, that young man, after hearing about this, actually dared to accept it at such a young age.

Liu Laocheng said: "This kid, staying in Shujian Lake may be a hidden danger to Zhenjingzong."

Jiang Shangzhen turned his head and smiled playfully.

Liu Laocheng smiled frankly: "Naturally, it's not just my enmity with him and Qingxia Island. I, Liu Laocheng and the Zhenjing Sect, should be reluctant to see Gu Can rise quietly. It is a big taboo to raise a tiger. "

Not just.

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said, "What do you think is Gu Can's greatest reliance?"

Liu Laocheng said: "Of course it's Chen Pingan who is no longer in Shujian Lake, and the rules Chen Pingan taught him. Guan Yiran, who has a good relationship with Chen Pingan, or someone I don't know, will definitely be watching Gu Pingan secretly." Can's every move means that Guan Yiran will of course stare at me, Liu Zhimao, and Zhenjingzong by the way. Gu Can should have already thought of these."

Regarding the so-called problem of raising tigers.

Jiang Shangzhen was noncommittal.

Although Liu Zhimao's realm is lower than Liu Laocheng's, he has dealt with the Dali court a lot, and in his early years he had more extravagant expectations than Liu Laocheng to be a veritable monarch of Shujian Lake, so in some things, he has to see farther than Liu Laocheng Of course, in the final analysis, it still involves Liu Zhimao's own interests, so his mind turns more, and Liu Laocheng, as a field practitioner, has a bright future, so his mind is naturally more pure, and his thoughts are not so messy.

In fact, Liu Zhimao found Gu Can in a back alley house in Chishui City before retreating.

Jiang Shangzhen could guess what happened.

Donate books to preach.

Discussing with Zhenjingzong to ask to return to Qingxia Island is a kind of far-reaching protection for Gu Can.

Because Liu Zhimao also guessed Jiang Shangzhen's long-term plan.

Instead of letting the Dali Song Clan support an unknown force to target the Zhenjingzong, it is better for the Zhenjingzong to take the initiative to send suitable candidates to the door.

For both parties, this is the least "internal friction" wise choice.

Jiang Shangzhen swaggered to Longquan County twice, and as long as he is not blind, he can see it.This is what Jiang Shangzhen deliberately asked people to ponder over.

Chen Pingan in the downcast mountain.

Jiang Shangzhen of Zhenjing sect.

The bridge in the middle is Qingxia Island and Gu Can.

Therefore, the real difficulty of Zhenjingzong has never been with Gu Can, Shujianhu, or even Shenxuanzong.

It was after two big trends, one was the annexation of Yizhou by the Dali Iron Cavalry, and then blocked another bigger trend.

At that time, it was the critical moment when Zhenjingzong needed to change from a choice to a choice.

But these, not to mention Liu Laocheng, even Liu Zhimao, are completely kept in the dark. Such a giant of Zhenjingzong, just in the eyes of the two wild cultivators, they will think more about things that seem to have nothing to do with them deep knowledge?

Yamazawa Yexiu, what else do you know besides his own self-cultivation is a bit heavy and his fists are bigger?

I have had enough of the eyes and oppression of the Immortal Master Genealogy in my life, but in the end, I still think that the realm is everything.

He would not have thought about it carefully, why did Yu Guizong have a suzerain who was about to ascend to the realm, and why Jiang Shangzhen could have the family business he has today?The sequence cannot be mistaken.Nowadays, among the three religions and hundreds of schools with strict rules and regulations, in the earliest time, who was not born as a mud leg lingering on the earth?Who is not a puppet in the hands of a high god?

It's really not that Jiang Shangzhen looked down on the world's Shanzawa Yexiu. In fact, he had been a field Xiu for many years when he traveled in Beiju Luzhou, and he was very good as a field Xiu.

Jiang Shangzhen looked at the rippling green Shujian Lake, and said softly: "Masters' rulers are not too many, but too few, and they beat too lightly. Disciples and students have always been forgetful and don't remember to beat, but they never People have thought about whether the masters have their own daily necessities to worry about, whether they will be disappointed one day when they say they are disappointed. All the people in the world who like to be calm and reasonable, once disappointed, it is true despair."

Liu Laocheng still didn't have much emotion in his heart.

Jiang Shangzhen suddenly turned his head and asked: "A suzerain of the Jade Raw Realm has devoted his heart and soul to you, so you don't have to listen carefully. What about the Fairyland?"

Liu Laocheng was terrified.

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty. After all, the saints have said that if you don't teach, you will be punished."

Jiang Shangzhen rubbed his chin, "I shouldn't have told you the truth so early. The treasure I hid on the body of my maid Ya'er is the real life-and-death relationship between you and Liu Zhimao. But I've changed my mind now. Because I suddenly want to understand one thing, to reason with you Shan Zeyexiu, fists are enough. Spending more time is simply delaying me, Jiang Shangzhen, from spending money."

It's not delaying earning money, it's delaying him spending money.

Liu Laocheng was expressionless and didn't say a word.

The long-lost dilemma and dangerous situation, the long-lost murderous intentions are everywhere.

Jiang Shangzhen sighed, "I used to think that everyone, whether good or bad, whether up or down the mountain, will become smarter when they reach a higher altitude, but after so many years, I'm actually quite disappointed. Liu Laocheng you If you don't hold on tight, really submerge yourself, cultivate your state of mind, and change the fundamental context of some thoughts, not to mention catching up with me, even Liu Zhimao can leave you behind. Of course, there is also that Gu Can. , sooner or later. At that time, you will be the chief priest yourself, which is a big joke. Gu Can, who will always be like an ant for a long time in the future, you will never be able to kill in your life. Liu Zhimao is already equal to you. Look at me, Jiang Shangzhen, who needs to look up even more."

Jiang Shangzhen raised his hand, shook his sleeve, twirled it casually, rubbed out a emerald green water droplet condensed with the essence of water transport with both hands, and then gently crushed it with his two fingers, "Do you think that when the accountant came to see you on the island, he Does he look up to you? No, what he respects and fears is the rules that gathered on you at that time. But sooner or later, it may not take too long, decades? On the top of Gongliu Island, if that person stands at the ferry, you will feel like a dwarf."

Liu Laocheng said: "I have been taught."

Jiang Shangzhen said with a smile: "Sure enough, the words in the fairyland are more pleasing to the ear. So you should study hard, and I must practice hard."

Liu Laocheng sighed.

Jiang Shangzhen said for no reason: "Maybe one day, I may return to Tongyezhou to sit in Yuguizong, then you will be the next suzerain of Zhenjingzong, Liu Zhimao, you can be suppressed in the bottleneck of Yupu Realm If you are in a good mood at that time, and you feel that there is no threat to you, then be generous and let him enter the fairyland, and then let him create Aquarius Island It is the next sect of the Real Realm Sect."

Jiang Shangzhen put his arms around his sleeves, "This is not for Liu Laocheng to draw cakes for you, I, Jiang Shangzhen, would not do such a lowly thing."

Liu Laocheng seems to have realized something.

Now someone from the Zhenjing Sect collects all the Shanshui mansion newspapers on Tongyezhou, and there are rumors among them that the suzerain of Yuguizong, who is firmly in the first place of the fairy family in Tongyezhou, may have retreated.

Pursue the mysterious and mysterious ascension state.

The old suzerain Xun Yuan and Liu Laocheng are actually not unfamiliar, after all, they have traveled a long way to the landscape of Aquarius Island.

In fact, Mr. Liu's cost is the enshrinement of the Zhenjing sect appointed by Xun Yuan.

But on Jiang Shangzhen's side, half a copper coin is useless for such a little incense.

Liu Laocheng took a deep breath, only feeling that the sky is big and the earth is big, and it is rare to have a great ambition, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Then from now on, I, Liu Laocheng, can sincerely be my own Zhenjing sect, go through life and death! "

Jiang Shangzhen turned his head and patted Liu Laocheng on the shoulder lightly, "My family doesn't speak two different languages. I said some things in a bad way earlier. Brother Liu, don't mind."

Liu Laocheng hesitated for a moment.

Jiang Shangzhen said: "My family, of course you can say a few ugly words, you don't mind, I am not worried about anything, only too much money."

Liu Laocheng said with a straight face: "Sect Master Jiang, why do you deserve such a beating?"

Jiang Shangzhen rubbed his cheeks, thought for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Probably because you are not a woman."

----

On the other side of Qingluan Kingdom, there was a handsome young man in white clothes, who took the old and the young to visit all the famous places in half the country.

Before that, this young man "leaked" a Wenjing Kingdom's subjugated jade seal from a man whose family had fallen in Fengweidu in the hometown of Liu Laocheng, the only one in Aquarius Continent.

But this Wen Jingguo was not destroyed under the horseshoes of the Dali Iron Cavalry, but an earlier old calendar.

The subjugated prince of Wen Jingguo never seemed to have the idea of ​​restoring his country. After so many years, he never went down the mountain, and he is still practicing Taoism on the mountain.

And in this way, even if Wen Jingguo still has some residual luck, it is actually equivalent to completely cutting off the country.

Because any middle-five monks cannot become emperors and monarchs, it is an iron rule in the world.

In addition to this jade seal bought at a low price, the young man also went to see the old apricot tree, "Emperor's Wood", "Prime Minister's Tree", and "General's Apricot". With an empty stomach at the bottom, the boy squatted in the tree hole and muttered for a long time.

Then on the way, the young man who got the jade seal used a reason of "collecting everything" to go to a certain mountain, and bet with an old monk who walked the way of Fulong. Bet two with two, and narrowly won a round, then continue to bet all on the table, bet four with four, and finally bet eight with eight, and only two jade seals are left after winning the opponent. The foreigner surnamed Cui He even threatened to bet on the opponent's remaining two with the sixteen treasures he got, and he still won in the end.

In this way, relying on dog shit luck, the boy in white got the rest of the sixteen treasures of Wenjing Kingdom for no reason, swaggered down the mountain, and packed those priceless imperial jade seals casually in a cotton bag, and let a delicate child carry them on his back. , On the way down the mountain, there was a clanging sound.

The Liuli fairy who served as the old servant always felt chills on his back on the way down the mountain. The mountain protection array would be opened at any time, and then he would be closed and beaten. Of course, it was hard to say who beat whom in the end.But the old monk was worried that the magic weapon would not have eyes, and Master Cui Daxian couldn't take care of it, and he would be killed by mistake.The old monk knew very well that the only thing Cui Xianshi cared about was that little fool with cloudy eyes.

Fortunately, the gambling luck on that mountain was finally solved once, and he didn't make a move.

Along the way, the three of them walked a lot.

I have seen the so-called iron cavalry performance in Gyeonggi of Yunxiao Kingdom, and enjoyed the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival in the capital of Qingshan Kingdom. It is a pity that the old monk failed to see the "plump and five charms" of the emperor of Qingshan Kingdom. .However, Cui Xianshi bought a well-known "Qian Materia Medica", which is either a rare palace book or an ordinary book store. He often reads it while walking on the mountain trails, saying that it is a bit chewy.

After crossing the border of Qingluan Kingdom, Immortal Cui walked even more slowly, often taking out a jade seal at random, and rubbing it on the face of that child whom he nicknamed "Brother Gao".

Liuli Xianweng has always been like a servant porter who studies rich and noble sons, carrying glove boxes.

However, he feels that compared to the "brother Gao" who is often ridden on horseback, he is actually very lucky, so he often warns himself that he is lucky.

As for Mr. Cui's casual behavior, the old monk has long been familiar with it.

For example, there was a group of Shan Ze Yexiu, one of the three was named Lu Yangzhen, the two met by chance, and after walking together for a while, Liuli Immortal couldn't figure out what qualifications this kind of ant wild Xiu had to meet Master Cui Daxian They talked very happily, and in the end, they got a chance left by Master Cui Daxian intentionally. If the talisman paper of Huangxi is converted into immortal money, it will definitely be a huge windfall, and the other two, Lu Yangzhen, also have a lot of gains.Believe in those three, at that time, it felt like stepping on shit, raising your foot to look, oops, just about to curse, there is gold hidden under the shit.

Immortal Liuli looked at the three ecstatic Shanzawa Yexiu at the time, and after discussing it, he was still a little angry, trying to give some fairy money to Master Cui, but Master Cui actually had a face of "surprise" Happy" plus "grateful" to accept.Liuli Xianweng was at the side, feeling uncomfortable.

But I can't figure out what to do?Then forget it.Liuli Xianweng, an evil cultivator of the evil way, is particularly clear about some things.

As for the Yanzhizhai, where female monks from Yunxiao Kingdom gathered, the young man in white stood with his hands on his hips at the gate of the mountain, shouting and selling his fairy spring gong tu.Then, of course, the deal was not negotiated, and the benevolence and righteousness were not there. They could only be hunted down by a large group of female monks aggressively.

This kind of thing is not a problem at all.

Liuli Xianweng feels that he has cultivated his heart a lot this way!

Except for these jokes.

Master Cui Daxian became a little serious occasionally, which made the old monk admire him even more.

In the Golden Osmanthus Temple, Cui Xianshi sat and discussed with the master of the temple.

Chatting and chatting, the old temple master entered the state of sitting and forgetting.

The name of the viewer was Zhang Guo, and he was at the Dragon Gate Realm, and he seemed to be showing signs of entering the Golden Core Realm all at once.

Immortal Liuli was very envious.

In the Baishui Temple, where the spring water was rolling down the ground, Cui Xianshi sat on a well whose mouth was blocked for unknown reasons, and began to give lectures with a young monk who taught far more scriptures outside the temple than inside the temple.

Both are in white.

One Confucian and one monk.

At first, the two sides debated that "the word deviating from the scriptures is the theory of demons".

Liuli Xianweng was listening to the heavenly scriptures anyway, so he wasn't interested at all.

The childish boy "Brother Gao" was squatting at the bamboo gate, listening to what was being said inside, the childish boy was a little babbling, but he still couldn't speak.

In the end, Immortal Master Cui, dressed in fluttering white clothes, sat cross-legged on the well blocked by bluestones, and said a few Zen words with a smile one after another, "Sit in ten directions, and a thousand eyes will be broken? Why don't you sit and break the tongues of people in the world? Do you want to hate it?" Don't you kick the lotus seat over and crush the Buddha's head?"

Then he slapped it, breaking the bluestone that blocked the well.

The young man in white hovered over the mouth of the well, and laughed again and asked: "The old monk also has cats, dare not call in front of others?"

The monk in white bowed his head and folded his palms together, and chanted softly.

Immortal Master Cui finally smiled and said: "The Buddhist scriptures are a bit heavy, so you can only put them down if you can lift them up. There are two doors to the West Paradise, and if you can't see them through, you can't open them."

The young monk raised his head, smiled knowingly, and said slowly: "Chess is as high as the king, and the world is less, and as stupid as I am in the world."

Then Immortal Liuli saw his Master Cui Daxian, who seemed to be enjoying his words, so he jumped down the well, laughed and walked away, slapping the boy on the head, when the three of them left Baishui Temple together.

The white-clothed boy shook his sleeves, his steps were swaying, and he said, "If this stubborn stone refuses to nod its head, and is buried in the wild tobacco vines and never meets it, wouldn't it be a pity?!"

Liuli Xianweng didn't understand anything anyway, just pretended to understand, nodded and said: "Master Xian, apart from being a great scholar, you never thought that Taoism and Dharma are so advanced, and Buddhism is so profound, it is really no problem to participate in the debate of the Three Religions. "

The boy in white laughed and cursed: "Fuck you!"

Liuli Xianweng smiled awkwardly, but still nodded and said: "The immortal master is right."

The boy in white turned his head, "You have a lot of wisdom, why don't you stay here and become a monk?"

Liuli Xianweng said with a sad face: "No, I really don't have the wisdom to practice Buddhism! Not at all!"

Then Cui Dongshan took the old and the young, and went to the capital of Qingluan Kingdom.

Met the master of a small Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple is called Baiyun Temple, a secluded place the size of a tofu block, adjacent to the back alleys of the market, where chickens crow and dogs bark, children play, vendors hawk, and there is a lot of noise.

Cui Dongshan lived there for a few days, donated a lot of sesame oil money, and of course borrowed and turned books. The temple owner has a lot of books.Moreover, the unknown middle-aged Taoist priest has nearly a million words of reading experience alone. Cui Dongshan reads more of these.The master of the temple did not cherish his broom, and was willing to be read by others. The key point is that this young man from a foreign country who is traveling to study is still a big pilgrim with a lot of money.

On the morning of Cui Dongshan's farewell and departure, a little Taoist boy who had managed to live a few days of fairy days was really reluctant to let him go, his nose was full of tears, and the teacher of the little Taoist boy felt a little sad when he saw it. How incompetent is this master?

Cui Dongshan walked for less than half a day.

Xiao Daotong was still complaining over there, and was a little absent-minded when he was sweeping the fallen leaves all over the Taoist temple with a broom.

Then there were seven or eight bullock carts marching to the outside of Baiyun Temple, saying that they were delivering books.

The bullock cart was filled with various books from various schools of thought, and each box was transported to the small Taoist temple.

Seeing this scene, the middle-aged temple master who was described as emaciated was stunned.

However, when the last ox cart took down a plaque, the temple master called the joyous little Taoist boy, and they carried it carefully to the study together.

There are two characters written on the plaque, "Zhai Xin".

After leaving the capital of Qingluan Kingdom, Immortal Liuli served as the driver of a carriage, Cui Dongshan sat aside, and the child dozed off in the carriage.

The old monk asked softly: "Master Immortal, the master of the Baiyun Temple is not a cultivator, why do you look at him so admiringly?"

Cui Dongshan went up and down, waving his snow-white sleeves like that, and said, "He, the two gentlemen before and after me, are the same kind of people. In times of peace and prosperity, they don't show off. That is……"

The old monk waited for the next article, but there was no follow-up for a long time.

When Liuli Xianweng had given up on the answer, Cui Dongshan said with a smile: "The best master."

Cui Dongshan stopped his hands and said slowly: "An ordinary teacher can make good students learn better. A slightly better gentleman can teach good students and take care of bad students. He is willing to persuade people to correct their mistakes and become good. A good teacher is willing to show the utmost patience and kindness to the great evils of the world without education and ignorance. No matter where they go, the school and the sound of books are actually there. Some people think it is noisy, but it doesn’t matter. , it’s good if someone can listen to it.”

Cui Dongshan smiled and said: "So they are not tinkerers who are precarious in the world, but the source of people's hearts in the world. The clear springs flow down and pass by everyone's feet, so they are not high. Anyone can bow their heads and bend over. drink."

Cui Dongshan stood up suddenly and raised his arms high, as if holding a wine glass. At this moment, the young man in white stood up with his clothes shaking, with a high spirit, "There are many fat, sweet and greasy things in the world. Everyone yearns for it. Wouldn’t it be nice, or unfortunate, to have water to drink when you’re thirsty, and take it for yourself?!”

Liuli Xianweng drove the carriage carefully.

Ugh.

Master Cui Daxian said all kinds of weird things that people can't figure out.

As a result, the old monk was kicked on the back of the head, and the man scolded: "Damn you, you didn't say a word of flattery or applause?!"

The old monk was taken aback, and hurriedly started drafting his stomach, preparing his words.

It's just that such flirtatious words don't mean that there is something, not to mention that after being so frightened by Master Cui, Immortal Liuli racked his brains and couldn't think of a suitable good word.

Fortunately, the person behind said: "Forget it, anyway, you will not be lucky enough to go to Luopo Mountain in your life."

Immortal Liuli then relaxed a bit.

Because around the carriage, cyan birds made of origami are like living creatures, lingering and flying.

It's not the yellow seal talisman paper that ordinary middle-five monks buy with a lot of money.

It is an "innocence talisman" whose material color is as clear as the rain. It is said that it is a special talisman paper for the Taoist sect, which is extremely rare and expensive.

The old monk is also considered to be half an expert in the talisman lineage.

So I also know that the most mysterious talisman paper in the world is a kind of blue talisman paper that contains the true meaning of a saint, and there is no exact name.

It's just that these treasured innocence talismans were used to origami to make birds.

Master Cui Daxian, is it really suitable?

It would be nice if your old man gave me a few as family heirlooms.

The old monk lamented in his heart.

In fact, he really didn't get any benefits during this bumpy journey. He had no choice but to hope that one day in the future, Master Cui Daxian felt that he had no credit at all, and that he would also have a share of hard work.

It's just that the old monk feels a little better when he thinks of being a cow and a horse.

The little idiot in the carriage is the real ox and horse.

Cui Dongshan said suddenly: "Detour, don't go to Liu's Lion Garden. Go see a poor man."

Then the old monk followed the route given by Cui Dongshan, drove steadily, and slowly drove south.

Along the way of Qingluan Country, there are many rumors about Liu's Lion Garden.

The patriarch of the Liu family, the leader of Shilin, lost his reputation at the end of the day, and his reputation was ruined. From the original Qingliu masters who existed like a country's literary courage, they were reduced to pickled bastards like literary monsters. Poetry and articles were belittled to nothing. There is more dirty water pouring down on the head, and there is no way to avoid it. A scholarly family, one of the four major private gardens in Qingluan Kingdom, has suddenly become a place where filth is hidden. The poorly printed pornographic pamphlets were circulated among the government and the public.

Therefore, when the second son Liu Qingshan came back from his travels and held a wedding banquet in the Lion Garden to marry an unknown foreign woman, the old servant Liu did not meet a single family friend.

As for the eldest son, Liu Qingfeng, who "destroyed relatives with great righteousness", he was removed from the Liu family tree early on, and now he is not a big official. It is said that he is an assistant official in charge of water transportation. No one thinks how high this kind of person can go in Qingluan Kingdom, the most prestigious country, maybe one day even that official skin will be gone, and no one will care about it, so he is not a worthy person. It's too boring to chat a few more jokes after dinner.

Furthermore, today's Qingluan Kingdom is thriving, and the country's fortune is prosperous.

Temples, mountains, rivers and lakes, and scholars' forests are all full of talented people, springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain, and there is a great atmosphere of clouds and clouds.

For example, there was a child who was only six years old. In just one year, the name of the prodigy spread throughout the government and the public. At this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival in Beijing, the young prodigy entered Beijing and was summoned by the emperor and the empress to go upstairs. The child The empress, who was doted on at the first glance, was hugged affectionately on her lap. His majesty the emperor personally tested the poems of this child prodigy, and asked the child to compose an impromptu poem according to the proposition. The child was held in the arms of the empress. After a little thought, he uttered a poem. His Majesty the Emperor, Longyan Dayue, unexpectedly bestowed on the child an official position of "Da Zhouzheng". This is a candidate for an official. It means that this child is very likely to be the youngest civil servant not only in Qingluan Kingdom, but in the entire history of Aquarius Continent!

At this moment, winter is coming.

On the bank of a Cao River that has not been completely dredged, on a quiet alley, on the roof of a bumpy carriage, a young man in white is sitting cross-legged, holding a special paper kite from the Qingluan Kingdom, called Wooden Harrier, in his hand.

As long as the silk thread is continuous, all paper kites in the world are destined to fly high, but they cannot go far.

Cui Dongshan lay down on his back, staring blankly at the paper kite on the sky.

My husband, how are you doing now?

----

The re-opening of water transportation is extremely complicated and involves all aspects of Qingluan Kingdom, so the court did not blindly seek speed, and it seemed that the progress was slow.

The official rank of the abbot is not high. There are three of them. This matter was widely publicized, and there was not much attention paid to it in Qingluan Kingdom. It seems that the two Beijing officials are more pragmatic, and the local governor is pragmatic, but it is not the case. Mr. Inspector, when he really went to the temporary government office by the Cao River, he found that the two noble gentlemen who were not as high as himself seemed to have a well-thought-out plan. Many officials in the borderlands felt that they couldn't intervene, so they just followed the steps.

In addition to the two regular fifth-rank doctors from the capital from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry, there is also an assistant official from the fifth rank, whose surname is Liu and whose name is Qingfeng.

Lord Inspector Hong really despises this Liu who is backward in the officialdom. In the world, selling friends for glory is already despised by everyone. He is a bastard who sells his father for glory in officialdom. When discussing matters together, you have to change into an official robe the next day. It's really hard to drink a cup of tea.

In the past six months, Governor Hong has always treated Liu Qingfeng with a nose that is not a nose, and eyes that are not eyes. The two Beijing officials seem to understand Master Hong's feelings very well, and they deliberately turned a blind eye to this. As for Liu Qingfeng himself, it is probably because of his small official hat and guilty conscience , has been pretending to be respectful on the side of Governor Hong, and discussing the details of the dredging of the Caohe River on the table, Liu Qingfeng almost never speaks on his own initiative, only the two Beijing officials asked for details before speaking.

On this day, in a village next to the Cao River, there is a lively scene of dancing bamboo horses.

A scholar who had walked the entire length of the old Caohe twice, and a young book boy named Liu Mao, sat together on the top of a low yellow mud wall, watching from afar the sound of gongs and drums, bamboo horses and bamboo horses. Made of bamboo strips, the bamboo horse is wrapped with five-color cloth, divided into two sections, the front and the back, and hung around the waist of the person dancing the bamboo horse. According to the folk custom, a red horse is worn in formal clothes, a yellow horse is ridden in green clothes, and a green horse is ridden by a woman. Riding a white horse and a warrior riding a black horse have their own meanings.

In fact, the scholar can no longer tell that he is a scholar with official status. His skin is tanned and shiny, and he wears coarse linen clothes. The only thing is the pair of very strong but old suede boots on his feet, which are not available in ordinary village families. .

Not every village can walk the bamboo horse jumping. It depends on which village pays.

This village obviously gives a lot of money, so the bamboo horse dance is particularly exciting.

Near the top of the wall, there are many tall young men who came from other villages to join in the fun.

Pointing and talking to the girl in the wealthy village, saying which girl's breasts will definitely be big in the future, and which family's girl must be the one who gave birth to a son, laughing and laughing all around the wall, and some people are arguing Who is the most handsome girl in the house, compare who is the most juicy girl in a radius of tens of miles, anyway, everyone has their own preferences.

The scholar also looked at the women they were pointing at, and he didn't hide his scrutiny. The book boy sitting beside him was a little helpless, why are you so unscrupulous, sir.

The scholar smiled and said: "The essence of a woman is that whiteness is the most difficult thing, but it is not a problem to be fat or thin."

The book boy said helplessly, "Sir, you say yes."

The scholar said with a smile: "You are still young, and you will understand in the future that a woman's face is not the most important thing, but a good figure is the most important thing."

The book boy rolled his eyes, "Master, why do I understand these things, I haven't read many books, and I still have to take the exam to be an official like the master."

The scholar nodded, "You are the seed of reading, and you will definitely be an official in the future."

The book boy was immediately elated.

No matter what the master says, it is always accurate!

In the distance between them and near the jumping bamboo horse, there were endless cheers and applause.

On the other hand, near the wall on their side, there were quite a few spectators, some of them were picking and choosing, disapproving, more scoffing, and less applause.

The book boy asked softly: "Master, you are very knowledgeable and know the origin of those bamboo horse jumping. Then tell me, is it true that you didn't dance? I think it's very good."

Liu Qingfeng said in a low voice: "Of course it's good, but we don't spend money, why should we agree, which good things in the world don't cost money?"

The book boy was confused, "What's the point?"

Liu Qingfeng smiled slightly, stopped talking, and patted the young man's head, "Don't think about it too much, you are now in a good time to study."

The book boy nodded, remembered something, and asked curiously: "Why do you only look at the historical files of the Ministry of Household Taxation recently?"

The book boy still doesn't know that this is not something that his master can read in his current official status, and someone even sent it to the book case quietly.

Liu Qingfeng said softly: "Looking at the history books, all the emperors of later generations asked people to write about the personnel affairs of the previous dynasty. The life history of the people in charge of financial power in the past dynasties, and the process of casting and promoting various types of money. Taking one person as the point, taking the profit and loss of the national treasury as the line, and then spreading it, it will be easier to see the gains and losses of the national policy.”

The bookboy scratched his head.

Liu Qingfeng looked at the hustle and bustle in the distance, and said with a smile: "You don't need to worry, as long as you want to read in the future, I have it here."

The book boy was a little happy when he saw that the master liked to chat today.

Because the two trips to the end of the Caohe River were really exhausting, and the master was not very talkative at that time, he just looked at the mountains and rivers with no difference, and wrote notes silently.

Taking advantage of the master's willingness to talk more today, the book boy asked more, "Master, why do you have to chat with the teachers and gentlemen from the cities and rural schools when you go to a certain place?"

Liu Qingfeng said: "How did the seeds of study come from? After the parents in the family, the teacher is the teacher. Why is it not an important thing for us scholars to care about? Is it possible that the sky will fall out of thin air. Scholars who are full of knowledge and are willing to cultivate themselves and support their families?"

The book boy hummed, "Master still makes sense."

Liu Qingfeng smiled slightly, "You can think about this matter now."

The book boy nodded and said, "Okay!"

Suddenly, a group of young and strong men and tall teenagers came rushing forward. Seeing Liu Qingfeng and Shutong's feng shui treasure land, they all jumped onto the wall, "Go away."

The juvenile book boy had an angry look on his face.

He never thought that his master had already stood up, silently jumped off the top of the low wall without saying anything, the young man had to follow suit, and went to admire the bamboo horse jumping elsewhere, but just looking at it again, it became unreal.

Make the boy so angry.

Liu Qingfeng stood elsewhere, stretched his neck, stood on tiptoes, and continued to look at the bamboo jumping horse in the village's Gu Valley.

The teenager was sullen.

My master is good at everything, but his temper is too good, which is not good.

"Don't talk right and wrong with people who are right and wrong, and in the end you will be right and wrong."

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said: "Don't compete with hypocrites for fame, don't compete with real villains for profit, don't compete with stubborn people for reason, don't compete with ordinary people for courage, don't compete with acid scholars for talent. Don't show favor to fools."

This is indisputable.

In fact, there is still the knowledge of contention.

However, Liu Qingfeng felt that it would be better to talk to the boy next to him later.

It is not a good thing for a young scholar to not concentrate on reading and just think about the truth.

Just as long as you don't make a big mistake.

The young Liu Min summoned up his courage, and for the first time refuted his all-knowing master, "If we don't fight for anything, then we will have nothing? It's too bad. There is no reason to give in to others every step of the way. I think so not good!"

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said, "Think about it again."

Liu Min shook her head and said, "I just don't understand."

Liu Qingfeng withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at the boy, and joked, "You're so stupid, how can you be my bookboy?"

Liu Mino chuckled.

Liu Qingfeng said suddenly: "Let's go."

Liu Mino left with the master.

Liu Qingfeng walked slowly, thinking about some small things, not big things.

Liu Mino had problems at first, but when she saw the master's appearance, she knew that she could not disturb the master.

What Li Baozhen is doing now, Liu Qingfeng will just stand by and watch.

Li Baozhen's ambition, which can also be called ambition, is actually not small.

One of the leaders of the spies at the Lvbo Pavilion in the south of the Great Li, he is making an attempt to plan carefully from the bottom. The seed of reading, the hero of the rivers and lakes, the leader of the scholarly forest, and the temple official, after Li Baozhen entered the Qingluan Kingdom , everyone started to be chess pieces controlled by him, and now they are almost all young and ignorant children, such as the child prodigy who was awarded the title of "Great Zhou Zheng".

It sounds very impolite, full of conspiracies, and looks sinister and murderous, but it is not at all.

Li Baozhen is like building a house. His first goal is not to be the emperor behind the scenes of Qingluan Kingdom, but to be able to one day even the fate of the fairy family on the mountain can be controlled by the secular dynasty , the reason is very simple, even the embryos of cultivating Taoism were sent to the mountains by me, Li Baozhen, and the Dali court. Year after year, the embryos of cultivating Taoism became a certain founder of the mountain or a pillar of a large group of mountain gates. After a long time, let’s talk about it again As far as the rules of the mountain are concerned, it is easy to make sense.

During this period, Wei Liang, the governor of the Qingluan Kingdom, looked on coldly, and occasionally made a few rules that Li Baozhen himself had to abide by.

Liu Qingfeng saw Li Baozhen's plans clearly, from his intentions to his wrists. To put it bluntly, it was either Liu Qingfeng's leftovers from his play, or he Liu Qingfeng deliberately left them for Li Baozhen.

For example, since the beginning of this year, there have been several celebrities in the literary world in Qingluan Kingdom, who have gained notoriety.

How to do it?It is still the three tricks that Liu Qingfeng taught Li Baozhen back then. He praised them first, saying that the poems and articles of those people were enough to accompany the saints, and boasted the character of those people to the altar of moral saints.

Then someone came out to say a few words of justice, and then quietly began to gather momentum, began to lead the public opinion in the literary world, and lured neutral people to hate those few moral saints who actually felt inexplicable.

In the end it's even simpler, aren't you morally immaculate saints?Then use random nonsense words, arrange them wantonly, and criticize those people because of their personal moral disadvantages.At this time, it was the turn of the rivers and lakes and the market to exert their strength. The wandering storytellers and the shopkeepers of private bookstores began to take turns.In the end, do the common people who are ruined and contribute to the flames invisibly, really care about the truth?There may be, but it is destined not to be many, the vast majority, isn't it just to watch the excitement?Just like Liu Qingfeng did today, watching the excitement of the bamboo horse jumping from a distance?

Why do you want to look at the extravagant hope that this is just a lively crowd, and ask them to think too much?

Liu Qingfeng would not.

What's more, there has never been a lively scene in the world that does not end.

After the hustle and bustle, there is dead silence.

It has always been so.

Liu Qingfeng smiled, and said to himself: "I made a good start."

What's more, Li Baozhen is very smart, and it is easy to draw inferences from one instance.

Liu Qingfeng stopped suddenly, and said to the young man beside him: "Liu Mao, remember, if one day in the future, no matter who comes to persuade you to harm me, whether it is as a long-term covert chess piece, or a hasty assassination , you just nod your head and agree, not only agree to the other party, but also do your best, do your best, without any hesitation or mercy."

The young book boy's face was pale.

Mind went blank.

I don't understand why my master would say such scary words.

Liu Qingfeng looked as usual, and said softly: "Because you will definitely not be able to succeed. I kept you by my side, in fact, to hurt you once, so I have to save you once. To save you from dying in vain for the sake of so-called morality. During this period , how much you can learn from me, accumulate contacts, and finally climb to a position is all your own ability. As for why you know this, but still keep you by my side, I just want to know whether you can become The second Li Baozhen is smarter than him, smart enough to really benefit the world in the end."

The young bookboy's face was full of tears, because he was frightened by this strange master.

Liu Qingfeng asked softly: "Do you remember?"

The boy wiped away his tears and nodded.

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said: "Very well, then from now on, you have to try to forget about these. Otherwise, you won't be able to fool Li Baozhen."

After a while, Liu Qingfeng was rarely surprised.

Because a young man in white was walking towards him, but the personal entourage sent to him by Dali did not show up from the beginning to the end.

The boy was holding a paper kite in his hand, smiling brightly, "Liu Qingfeng, I'm digging my own wall with a small hoe on my shoulders. You're worthless hanging out with that old bastard. You can hang out with Cui Dongshan from now on. Besides, what’s mine is mine, what’s his is mine, so why not be polite with him. In the south of Aquarius Continent, I’m the biggest, and the old bastard doesn’t care about it.”

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said, "This is a bit difficult."

The hidden identity of the other party, Liu Qingfeng can read all the confidential information of Lubo Pavilion now, so he can roughly guess some, even if it is only the identity on the surface, the other party is actually enough to say these outrageous words.

Cui Dongshan threw the paper kite in his hand to Liu Qingfeng. After Liu Qingfeng caught it, he looked down and saw that there was no thread, so he smiled.

Liu Qingfeng raised his head, shook his head and said, "You should know that I, Liu Qingfeng, am not here. Self-protection and freedom are never what we scholars pursue."

Cui Dongshan strode forward, tilted his head, and stretched out his hand: "Then you pay me back."

Liu Qingfeng smiled and said: "Of course someone gave me something for nothing, it's even better, I'll just accept it and not return it."

Cui Dongshan clicked his tongue and said: "Liu Qingfeng, if you are so interested in me again, I will help my husband to accept apprentices on behalf of the teacher!"

Liu Qingfeng asked with a smile: "I don't know who is Mr. Cui's husband?"

Cui Dongshan stood on the spot, his feet didn't move, he shrugged his shoulders, very naughty, and said with a smile: "You have seen it a long time ago."

Liu Qingfeng thought for a while, "I can't guess."

Cui Dongshan laughed loudly and said: "To show my sincerity, I won't play tricks on you. My husband is the one who caused your ox cart to fall into the water."

Liu Qingfeng was stunned for a long time, then tentatively asked: "Chen Pingan?"

Cui Dongshan was also stunned for a moment, but in an instant, he came to Liu Qingfeng, jumped up lightly, and slapped Liu Qingfeng hard on the head, causing Liu Qingfeng to stagger and almost fall, only to hear the man's anger Cursed: "Fucking brat, dare to call my husband by his first name?!" 6
