Sword comes

When Chen Ping'an woke up, he found that the oil lamps on the table were exhausted, and the sky was already bright outside the window.

He only remembered the five paragraphs that the tall woman said to him.

"There are so many secret stories I said before. After you wake up, you will forget them all. You don't have to try to remember them. It's just that I want to talk."

"If I were in this world now, even if the saints from all over the world did not come to suppress you and me, with your current physique and spirit, you would not be able to bear it at all, and it would be harmful and useless to you, so we set a period of [-] years. If you successfully reach the tenth floor of Qi Practitioners, you can return to the stone arch bridge in the town and take the iron sword."

"I chose you as my master. You must not be complacent because of this matter in the future, and you must not belittle yourself. In the past 8000 years, I have seen too many amazing and talented sons of heaven. The most recent ones, such as Cao Xi Xie Shi , and Ma Kuxuan and others have never been in my eyes, so choosing you is naturally not a forced choice due to the imminent deadline."

"Although I can't fight with you for the time being, there is still a meeting gift. In the dragon slaying war 3000 years ago, I had nothing to do. I just watched their children fight. It was lively but I lost everything. I picked up a good-looking white jade tablet. It looks more elegant and pleasing to the eye. It has no carvings and is small and exquisite. It can be used to store things. It is a close thing of a certain age. Like it, you need to have a higher rank, the space is about the same as your ancestral house in Niping Lane, and you don’t need to hang a pendant to show people, you can warm it in the acupuncture point. I have already made you have the same spirit as it. You need to move your mind, and you can put the jade tablet in the acupuncture point. Unless the Ascendant cultivator breaks it with force, it will not be damaged at all. The bad news is that you can only control and use the jade pendant when you become a middle-five cultivator. .”

"Well, in the end, it's the name of the fairy sister, which is very suitable for me, so I put three extra strands of extremely small sword energy on you."

Chen Pingan was taken aback.

It's like an eternity.

I just wanted to go back to my home and light up the lights until dawn before I left the town, in order to make up for it in advance, which was destined to be impossible for the New Year's Eve this year.

Chen Pingan's head was as big as a bucket.

Not to mention the five realms and the tenth floor of Qi Practitioners, Chen Ping'an's body has leaked from all sides, just like a dilapidated hut in a turbulent storm.Chen Ping'an was not only destined to be unable to cultivate, but also needed to rely on boxing to nourish his body if he wanted to survive.

Ning Yao once said inadvertently that it is easy to break a person's Genguqiao acupoint. Just like Cai Jinjian "instructing" Chen Ping'an and forcing him to enlighten him, but wanting to reshape a complete body, especially a body suitable for cultivation, Harder than going to the sky.In fact, the reason is very simple. It takes a little effort to hack a door with a kitchen knife for a child, but it is of course difficult to repair the broken door as new.

In fact, what Chen Pingan was most afraid of was that he promised Li Baoping to escort her to Shanya Academy. It was a long journey, and it was hard to say whether he could return to his hometown alive.It's not that Chen Ping'an didn't meet with frankness at that time, but the woman in white sent him away with a word. It's okay. I have no room for regret now. Well, one day that old sword fell into the stream, my spirit completely dissipated, it's fine, you don't have to feel that you owe me anything, if you want to blame it, I'm blind, and I can't blame others.

At that time, Chen Ping'an thought to himself that you said so, is my conscience okay?And what is "not complaining about others", isn't it just you and me?

Chen Ping'an didn't know anything about the [-]th floor of Qi Practitioners, and he didn't know what the things that were close by and square inches were.

In addition to inexplicably adding a huge burden, the young man actually has some small joys deep in his heart.

It turns out that from today, there is one more person in this world who needs to rely on himself.

At the end of the chat in the dream, Chen Pingan remembered that he and the woman in white were sitting side by side on a golden stone arch bridge.

Chen Ping'an took a deep breath and lay down on the table. Thinking of it in the end, he felt that it was the words of old man Yao that were the easiest to figure out, "It should be yours, just take it and don't lose it. It shouldn't be yours, don't even think about it."

Chen Ping'an put all the things that should be packed up in a small back basket, slingshots, fish hooks and lines, flint and so on, which were very trivial. Finally, he carefully took out a small cloth bag from the bottom of the clay pot and put a bag in it. Broken Porcelain.There are a lot of things that are added together, but they are not heavy.Going out for a long trip, like Chen Ping'an, he often traveled a hundred or two hundred miles in the mountains. If the load is too much, it is definitely a bad thing for a soft knife to cut meat. You have to know how to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to drink water.

Chen Pingan carried a small basket on his back, locked the door, stood in the yard, saw the locust branch leaning against the wall, thought about it, and reopened the door and put it in the house to avoid the wind and the sun. , decayed early.

Chen Ping'an carried the [-] taels of silver he earned from the last time he went to the mountains to collect herbs, and went to Xinghua Lane and Chilong Lane. After the shop owner opened the door with a yawn, the teenager bought incense candles, paper money, and a pot of wine called Taohua Chunshao from the liquor store. Finally, he wanted to buy a pack of Kujie cakes from the New Year's shop. I remember my mother when I was a child. I ate it once and said it was delicious, and said that I would buy it again when Chen Ping'an was on his fifth birthday, so Chen Ping'an remembered it very clearly, but when he arrived at the New Year's shop, the guy said that the shop has long stopped making this kind of pastry. , but there are old masters who can do it, the shop is about to close down, and the old master has already followed the shopkeeper to the capital to enjoy it.Chen Pingan had no choice but to buy a pack of peach cakes that Ruan Xiu gave to Li Baoping yesterday.

The young man walked out of the town, passed the small temple where he and Ning Yao were hiding from the mountain ape at that time, and had to go further south until he came to a small mountain. It was a barren field that had not grown crops for many years, and there were two small earthbags. There were no weeds in the field and on the earthbags. Put away the things that were sacrificed to the ancestors one by one.

The town is thousands of years after another. I don’t know if it was like this at the beginning, or if the folk customs changed later. People, regardless of whether they are rich or poor, are not willing to kneel and kowtow when they go to the grave to worship their ancestors. They only need to light three incense sticks and worship three times. That's it.After all, this young man in the mud bottle alley, who has only been immersed in the "four-year family tradition", is no exception, but before lighting the incense, Chen Pingan, as usual, symbolically grabbed a handful of soil at his feet to add more to the tomb. soil, and then press down lightly.

This time it was because I was in a hurry, so I could only fetch soil nearby. Otherwise, every time the boy went into the mountains, he would secretly hide a handful of soil from various hills and bring them here. Of course, there is no special meaning, just for peace of mind. That's all.The teenager always feels that he has never been filial to his parents in this life. 01:30, he has to do something to make himself feel better.In addition, old man Yao said that the older generation of porcelain burners have this particularity passed down from generation to generation, so Chen Pingan has persisted for so many years.

The two small tombs are next to each other, cuddling with each other.

There is no monument.

After Chen Ping'an lit the three sticks of incense, he faced the tomb and bowed three times, and then placed it in front of the tomb before opening the pot of wine and pouring it gently in front of him.

Finally, Chen Ping'an stood up, closed his eyes and put his hands together, talking to his parents and the others.

For example, this time, I took a little girl in a red cotton jacket named Li Baoping, and went out for a long trip together, and I didn't know that I had to leave my hometown for thousands of miles.

----

A handsome young man stood in a small temple on the side of the road, looking up at the names written in charcoal on the wall, densely packed, crooked, large and small.

Maybe in the eyes of the people in the town, those children's playfulness is not worth mentioning, but in the eyes of the teenagers at this time, it is like a bright galaxy in the historical years.

The Lizhu Cave Sky, located above the Dali territory of Dongbao Pingzhou, is the smallest of the 36 small caves. It is only a thousand miles of mountains and rivers. If there is no spell restriction, for Qi practitioners who are flying in the sky, the scenery is really not enough to see.However, in addition to the great sages and ancestors of the various schools of thought, the magic treasures and artifacts left behind after the death of Lizhu Dongtian are mouth-watering, and the characters raised by this side of the water and soil are really beautiful and miraculous. rest of the place.

Just imagine, two great Qi practitioners form a pair of Taoist companions made in heaven, and then the offspring they give birth to, in addition to being bound to the middle five realms, the possibility of reaching the top five realms later is no better than Lizhu Dongtian. How tall are the children who were taken out of the town, and how many people are there in a town?

This is equivalent to a flood of dragons in the pond, and each generation can produce one or two, so this time the Lizhu cave has broken and fallen, and the monarchs of the major dynasties in East Treasure Pingzhou, as long as they have a little sense of worry, will surely be relieved, Da Li Song The shi finally broke this great golden vein, which is bound to have an impact on the subsequent southward hegemony of Da Li's iron cavalry.

Cui Yu was reluctant to take his eyes back for a long time, and he had mixed feelings. The imperial examinations of the dynasty have been friends of classmates, the same year, and the same village since ancient times.

The same is true on the path of practice.

Lizhu Dongtian has now settled down, and at the price of someone's death, he has gotten a good ending.

Then all the great cultivators who went out from Lizhudongtian would recite this incense love, which was more or less different.As for those four surnames and ten clans and the forces behind them, this is even more so.

It's a pity that in this turmoil, Da Li Song did not lose points, but did not add points.But originally, Da Li could be more "humane". For example, Ruan Qiong asked to enter Lizhu Cave in advance, so he shouldn't have agreed so quickly.Another example is that I knew that Qi Jingchun didn’t even have to fight for the sky-high cultivation level until the end, and only used two words to compete with those big men. Then when the Quartet forces demanded to retrieve the saint’s victory, even if the Da Li Rites did not If you have the guts to refuse, you should delay your righteous words and say that this is not in line with the rules.Another example is that the Dali court should not privately use the name of a family letter to publicly inform the four surnames and ten clans that the catastrophe is coming, quickly withdraw the incense seeds of each clan, and don’t be implicated by Qi Jingchun’s rebellious behavior, etc. It’s too much. too much.

Once Emperor Dali regains his senses, or is not greedy enough, then he, the national teacher who is in charge of the state affairs of the half-state and strategizes thousands of miles away, will probably be settled by the autumn queen.

It's just that the national teacher Cui Yu, who was standing in the small temple at this time, looked comfortable and relaxed, as if he didn't take Emperor Dali's long Yanzheng in his eyes at all.

Cui Yu said to himself, "Wait a minute."

Cui Ying looked around the walls, wrote down all the names, and was about to wave his sleeves to erase all traces, so as not to be made a fuss by other interested people in the future, but just as he was about to make a move, Ruan Qiong appeared at the door of the small temple, and said with a wicked smile: "Okay. Boy, you are bold enough, how many times is this?"

Cui Yu smiled and said, "I haven't done it yet?"

A voice appeared leisurely near the small temple, "You just let go of your hands and feet to fight, I'll be in charge of cleaning up the mess, making sure that there won't be a situation like the squid turning over and the mountains being cut off. Ruan Qiong, rather than being sticky and being so entangled by this guy, I think you might as well break it off with him, not afraid of thieves stealing, just afraid of thieves."

Cui Chen's face remained unchanged, he laughed and said, "Old man Yang, it's a good trick to reap the benefits of a fisherman without seeing blood in a murder." Ruan Qiong nodded, "I think it will work."

Cui Yu hurriedly bowed his apology, smiled and begged for mercy: "Okay, I'll just wander around the town next, okay? Saint Ruan? And Senior Yang?"

Ruan Qiong is clearly weighing the pros and cons.

Cui Yu said lightly, "Even if Senior Yang has the ability to protect eight out of ten mountains and rivers, what if I only want to destroy the Henglang Peak of Shenxiu Mountain?"

Before Ruan Qiong could speak, Old Man Yang's voice sounded again, "It's really unbearable to replace it with me."

Ruan Qiong said angrily, "Hurry back to Erlang Lane."

Cui Yu shook his head, walked out of the small temple gracefully, and when he passed Ruan Qiong, he even made a face of "juvenile heart".

When Cui Yu crossed the other side of the stream, Ruan Qiong turned around and saw the old man sitting on a dry bench in the temple smoking a dry cigarette.

For the first time, the old man did not sneer, but smiled, "I really care about your daughter."

Ruan Qiong sighed, obviously being so provocative by Cui Yu, but he couldn't bear it. He was very aggrieved. He sat opposite the old man Yang, leaning against the wall, and twitched the corners of his mouth, "I don't owe the sky or the earth, now even the ancestors and masters. It's paid off there, but I owe that girl to her mother, who is gone, how can I pay it back? I can only put what I owe her on my daughter."

Old man Yang said with a smile: "With your identity and ability, plus your relationship with Yingyin Chen, it is not impossible to find your daughter-in-law's life and life."

Ruan Qiong shook his head and said, "She didn't have the aptitude in her previous life. She didn't enter the middle five realm before her death, so even if she was reincarnated as an adult, she would never have the possibility of knowing what happened in her previous life. In my opinion, without those memories, If there is only one body left, it is no longer my daughter-in-law. What's the point of finding her? It's enough that she lives in my heart."

The old man Yang nodded and said, "You can think about it, the tenth floor of the military family is the most difficult to break. It is not without reason that you can be the latecomer among your peers."

Ruan Qiong didn't want to talk deeply about this matter, so he asked, "Do you think that person is bluffing?"

Old man Yang smiled and shook his head, "Then you should underestimate this person. A savage hero who is willing to cut his body and dare to pull the emperor off his horse, this one, I guess he is willing to cut his body and dare to pull Daozu and Buddha off his horse. Of course, I'm just talking about xinxing, not ability."

Ruan Qiong was skeptical.

Old man Yang pointed to the ground at the entrance of the small temple with a dry tobacco stick, and there was a small path that was stepped on by pedestrians, and said slowly: "This guy is not the same as us. When you meet on a narrow road, you feel that if you don’t kill the other party, you will really feel sorry for yourself. Or if someone wants to cross him later, it will be a dead end. This kind of person, you can’t simply say that he is a good person or a bad person.”

Ruan Qiong suddenly jumped to another question and said slowly, "Chen Pingan's parents and grandparents are just ordinary people born and raised in the small town. How did his father know the mystery of Benming porcelain? And he insisted on breaking the porcelain at all costs. ? Obviously, someone deliberately broke the secret and asked him to do this."

The old man Yang was silent for a long time, exhaled a mouthful of smoke, and finally said: "At first I just thought it was an ordinary family dispute. When I realized that something was wrong, it was too late. But I am too lazy to get involved in these smoky intrigues, It's just when I'm bored, I just use it to turn my head. I think it's all about Qi Jingchun's overall situation, a seemingly small idle hand, but at the end I found out that this move is the real killing move. In the words of a Go master, it was considered a fairy hand. To be precise, it was not only to deal with Qi Jingchun, who had a very good life, but also for the literary fortune of Wen Sheng's lineage. But now, Qi Jingchun's last battle before his death was too great. Dazzling, everyone is accustomed to equating Qi Jingchun's life and death with the life and death of that context, and in fact it's not far off."

The old man glanced at the dignified military saint and said, "When you entered Lizhudongtian early, I suspected that you were also one of the people behind the scenes, or that Fengxue Temple and the Yingyin Chen Clan reached a deal, you You have to contribute to the teacher's sect, or you have secretly obtained great benefits from the 'worldly Confucianist' Yingyin Chen, so you are here to establish a sect."

Ruan Qiong smiled calmly and said, "Senior Yang thinks things are complicated."

The old man sneered and said: "If you think complicated, it doesn't mean you must be thinking wrong. The reason why you can still have a clear conscience now is that your military family is good at reducing complexity to simplicity. You can't say that the truth will be revealed to the world in the future, and you will know it later. I felt that I found myself only reduced to one of the pawns."

Ruan Qiong's mind was still firm, steady as a rock, and he laughed: "It doesn't matter, if it is the Yingyin Chen clan or some force who dares to play me as a chess piece on the chessboard, then I will wait for Ruan Qiong to arrange my daughter. Retreat, one day, I will kill all the way!"

Ruan Qiong sneered in his heart, "If that's the case, it's exactly what I want. In 100 years, at most 100 years, I can forge that sword. Where can I go, who can't kill?"

Ruan Qiong retracted his thoughts and asked curiously, "Could it be that the boy from Mud Bottle Lane is really Qi Jingchun's incense heir?"

Old man Yang lifted the old tobacco rod and tapped on the wooden chair lightly, then replaced the tobacco leaves from the cloth bag around his waist, and said, "God knows."

Ruan Qiong knew that the hidden old man in front of him had accumulated too many secrets in his stomach over the long years.

Ruan Qiong asked with a smile: "If you want to enter the town, each person needs to pay a bag of gold and copper coins first, and give it to the town gatekeeper. This generation is the man named Zheng Dafeng. I know these valuable copper coins, but It didn't fall into Emperor Da Li's pocket, so it's the old senior that you are safe in? What are you doing with the money, senior?"

The old man asked back: "I ask you Ruan Qiong how to forge the sword in your mind, will you answer?"

Ruan Qiong laughed heartily.

The old man Yang said indifferently: "I want to move this temple."

Ruan Qiong was stunned for a while, but quickly replied: "As long as I don't move outside, I have no problem."

The old man nodded and said with a smile, "For your cheerfulness, I can tell you a little secret."

Ruan Qiong nodded, indicating that he was willing to listen.

The old man exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke, which wrapped around the entire small temple after dissipating. In fact, the small temple had long been

Covered by a thin layer of white mist, it is obvious that the old man has increased the cover of the small temple for the sake of caution. The old man sighed and said slowly: "Do you know where Qi Jingchun is most powerful?"

Ruan Qiong said with a smile: "Naturally, it has good aptitude, high comprehension, and terrifying cultivation. Otherwise, how could the big men in the sky be willing to face Qi Jingchun together?"

The old man shook his head, "Assuming that Chen Ping'an is really the one chosen by Qi Jingchun, then there is someone out there who uses Chen Ping'an as a wonderful move, apparently idle for a whole ten years, but in fact, he managed it secretly and carefully, and even I was taken advantage of during this period. The wonderful thing is that when the person plays chess outside the chessboard and leaves his hand, after the chess piece takes root, the person is not a rigid chess piece after all, and will gradually become angry by himself, so he will become less and less like a chess piece, The ultimate move is becoming more and more concealed. What's more, next to this chess piece, there is a key chess piece that seems to be extremely powerful. It is the Song Jixing, where the Emperor Dali entrusts the entire Song family's hope, to help attract various parties. The line of sight finally creates a great situation of darkness under the lights."

Ruan Qiong's face was heavy, and he asked, "Qi Jingchun claims to be a person who is expected to become an ancestor. Although someone deliberately killed Qi Jingchun, it must not be all nonsense. How can you not see any clues?"

"These twists and turns, I only figured it out now, it's interesting, really interesting! The bystanders are still like this, what about the authorities?" The old man laughed suddenly, and even coughed a little, patted his thighs, and said, "But the authorities are very It has long been seen that Qi Jingchun, a scholar, is really not honest at all. Do you know what he did before he died? He deliberately ran to my side, except for Chen Ping'an's learned landscape seal, and finally Qi Jingchun I walked with Chen Ping'an for a while, said a word, and finally left it to Chen Ping'an. Ruan Qiong, guess what?"

Ruan Qiong was completely aroused, but he said, "I can't guess Qi Jingchun's mind."

The old man Yang sighed: "Qi Jingchun said that a gentleman can deceive him."

Ruan Qiong thought for a while, and at first he didn't agree, but after a while, his face changed slightly. In the end, his fists were clenched, his face flushed, and he shook his head helplessly: "I am ashamed, I have to be convinced."

The old man nodded, his eyes erratic, "The first meaning is to let Chen Ping'an tell me, or everyone, within the rules, how to deal with him Qi Jingchun, it doesn't really matter, whether it is victory or defeat, life or death, he Qi Jingchun has long been See through."

The old man stood up and said solemnly: "The second meaning is to tell Chen Ping'an in ten years, or even a hundred years later, to tell him that even if he knows the truth in the future, he is the chess piece that really killed him Qi Jingchun. , and there is no need to blame himself, because he Qi Jingchun already knew everything."

Ruan Qiong suddenly got up and strode away, "It's so fucking boring, dignified Qi Jingchun, who died so uselessly. If it was me, with his ability to cultivate, I would have collapsed through Dongbao Pingzhou with one foot and broke it with one punch. The world is awe-inspiring! Feeling suffocated, drinking!"

The old man smiled and walked out of the small temple with one hand behind it. With a slight shake of the hand behind it, the small temple disappeared out of thin air, and was taken into the palm of the old man's hand and held gently.

"Cui Yu, the national teacher of Dali, the former Confucian sage, I think your Taoism is more than that, right? Then I will wait and see."

----

The old man Yang, who rarely walked out of the town, became more hunched and hunchbacked after walking on the stone arch bridge, with a solemn expression, and said nothing.

The old man walked back and forth across the stone bridge twice, but the clouds and wind were light. After the old man walked off the stone bridge, he walked towards the town with a sad face, and said in his heart, "Is this really an opportunity that cannot be missed, and the time will never come? Even Feng Yun was born. The Ma Kuxuan, who is the only one who lives with you, doesn't have the qualifications to see you? Even if he just becomes your comrade, not the master, that's fine?"

"What kind of person do you want to find before you are willing to nod your head? Not to mention the 5000 years of deposition before, the existence of the Lizhu Cave Sky alone has been a full 3000 years, 3000 years! Such a long time Among them, how many heroes and heroes appeared in Dongbao Pingzhou in the future? With your help, would it be possible for them to go up to several floors? Above the 12th floor, even if only two floors are added, what kind of realm is that? gone?"

The stone bridge was silent.

The iron sword hanging at the bottom of the bridge does not move at all.

The old man let out a light breath and laughed at himself: "It's a good luck that a hero will not be free. That's all, if that's the case, then you can fend for yourself, and it will save me from worrying about good fortune and bad luck, because of you, the only thing left of us will be ruined. That incense. In this way, it is also a good thing, a small bet is happy, and you don't have to worry about losing the whole game."

----

Chen Ping'an carried a large and small backpack and returned from the small mountain. On the way, he found that the temple had disappeared. The young man looked around at a loss, making sure that he did not remember the wrong location. The small temple for people to rest was indeed like a Moved like a stone.It's just that now Chen Ping'an is no longer surprised, it's good to get used to it.

Chen Ping'an came to the blacksmith's shop, first went to the yellow mud house where he had piled up his belongings, took what should be taken, and left what should be left, and then went out to find Li Baoping, the little girl in the red cotton jacket.

Li Baoping stood in front of him, raised his head high, his face full of joy.

The little girl has long been full of messy embroidered bags and sachets, no less than seven or eight, and she also carries a small basket on her back, which is covered with a bamboo hat that can protect from the wind and rain, just to cover the basket. things in.It is estimated that these were suggested by the little girl, and then Ruan Xiu helped to clean them up.

Ruan Xiu, a girl in green clothes, stood beside the little girl in a red padded jacket, looking very happy.

Chen Pingan looked at the little girl and asked with a smile, "Did you bring anything to eat?"

Li Baoping nodded and said, "Most of the baskets are the food that Sister Ruan gave me to eat! The rest are books, not heavy... not so heavy!"

Chen Ping'an said, "When you get tired, just tell me."

The little girl raised her chest and said boldly, "How could I be tired!"

Ruan Xiu said softly: "The map of the situation in the northern part of East Treasure Pingzhou, as well as the state and county maps of Da Li and Sui, as well as several smaller maps, are all stored in Li Bao Ping's back basket. But wait until you get out of the university. After the Li frontier, you need to ask for directions often. Fortunately, Li Baoping understands your Dali mandarin and the elegant dialect that circulates throughout Dongbaopingzhou, so it shouldn't be a problem. Besides, I put some silver and copper coins in it. From the gold and copper coins you gave to my father, they are really nothing, so please don't refuse Chen Ping'an."

Chen Ping'an smiled knowingly: "I'm not stupid, why don't you give me money?"

Ruan Xiu said angrily, "Aren't you stupid?! For the sake of them who have nothing to do with..."

Just as soon as the hurtful words were uttered, the girl regretted it in a mess, and she quickly stopped and said no more.

Because not far away, there are four school boys who no longer travel with each other.

Chen Pingan, who had been winking secretly, breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "I will trouble you, Miss Ruan, about the things I said yesterday."

Ruan Xiu nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep those keys away, and I'll clean up the house every other day."

Chen Pingan took a deep breath and said to Li Baoping, "Let's go."

Li Baoping said happily: "Let's go!"

One big and one small, even the back basket is one big and one small.

In the eyes of everyone, the two walked farther and farther.

South to the Great Sui Dynasty.

Along the way, the little girl talked about the small town anecdotes, and finally talked about the study tour, and said to Chen Pingan old-fashioned: "Scholars are studying abroad, and those who are older need to defend themselves with swords, and also To be able to show that he has both civil and military skills.”

Chen Pingan was happy, "Yeah, those are you scholars, but I'm not."

The little girl froze for a while, then fell silent.

As if the truth was discouraging her.

----

Cui Yu bought a pot of high-quality soju at a small town liquor store, and walked slowly to Erlang Lane.

When they reached the Yuan family's ancestral house, when Cui Yu opened the lock, he paused for a while, and finally pushed it away with a smile.

He walked in quickly, closed the door, walked to the pool, looked at the man standing under the plaque in the main hall, ethereal and brilliant, Cui Yu sat on the chair by the pool, opened the jug, and smelled , Then he turned his head and smiled: "Even if there is only a trace of residual soul left, but uninvited, trespassing into private houses is not what a gentleman does, Qi Jingchun, Qi Junior Brother, right?"

The man turned around, and his face was vaguely visible. It was Qi Jingchun, the elegant teacher of the school, and the mountain master of the Mountain Cliff Academy who used his own strength to fight against the Tao of Heaven.

Qi Jingchun smiled and said, "That day, you and Cui Minghuang, on the bright side, were acting for Wu Yuan to see, but in fact, they were for me. Are you tired?"

Cui Yu moved a chair and sat down. He smiled and said, "Oh? Then what did you see?"

Qi Jingchun stood in the north of the pool, facing Cui Yu who was sitting in the south, and asked, "Why did you cultivate from the twelfth floor of Qi Practitioner to the realm, all the way down to the tenth floor?"

Cui Yu leaned back on the chair, shaking the jug between two fingers, "It's not our pedantic gentleman, who would have thought that you have already made a difference, so the statue of the gentleman keeps going down, you not only Instead of being affected, the realm has been rising, but I have been out of the teacher's school for so long, but I have never been able to get rid of the influence of his old school and context. The thing that makes me most desperate is that I find that I have no hope of relying on it in my life. My knowledge overwhelms or surpasses my husband. What should I do? I can't help him to be buried with him. The problem is that the collapse of the statue of my husband has a great impact. It is not like a stone falling into the lake, but a mountain. Entering the lake, the waves are so big that almost no one can escape except for people like you who have already landed, and I am even more so. So I thought of a little trick, Junior Brother Qi, do you think so?"

Qi Jingchun nodded.

Cui Yu's eyes narrowed and he stopped shaking the jug.

Qi Jingchun sighed and said: "The best result is that your knowledge will surpass Mr. Qi Jingchun and me, and get the approval of heaven, earth, people and gods, but it is a pity that you can't do it. Secondly, you hope that Mr.'s context will be cut off. In my hands, and then you can take it away, even if you can't reach the high position of Mr. in the Confucian Temple, it is better than a so-called Great Li's national teacher. , As a Buddhist visualization, if that person can stick to his original intention, it means that you have stuck to your original intention at a certain hurdle, and finally it will become an opportunity for you to climb from the tenth floor to the eleventh floor again."

Qi Jingchun shook his head and said, "Cui Yu, do you think that you can make a steady profit in this transaction? I know that you have already arranged the next move, even if Chen Ping'an can still maintain a pure and firm state of mind, you are the same. I will arrange backhands, such as magnifying the shortcomings of those Meng children as much as possible, and constantly depleting Chen Ping'an's state of mind, such as grinding a mirror with stone, making the mirror rough and eventually fragmented, then once Chen Ping'an is the seed of reading that I have chosen to pass on from generation to generation, You can be done, and you can take all the cultural and luck of Qi Jingchun and me into your pocket, which is far greater than the final result of the third method, Buddhist visualization."

Cui Yu's face was ashen.

Qi Jingchun smiled and said: "If you are willing to choose to let go now, I can promise to let you achieve the third result, although it is relatively the worst, but for you, Cui Yu, it is a great good thing. It's got what you want."

Cui Yu stood up and said with a sneer, "Qi Jingchun, you're a soul that's about to go to pieces, half-human and half-ghost! Are you worthy of negotiating terms with me?"

Qi Jingchun's face was as usual, "I'll give you one last chance."

Cui Yu said with a grim expression: "You dare to spoil my mood?!"

Qi Jingchun looked sad and said softly, "Senior Brother Cui."

Cui Yu suddenly smashed the jug in his hand on the ground, took a step forward, and pointed his finger at Qi Jingchun, who was across a pool on the ground and a patio in the sky, and said sternly: "I don't believe that you Qi Jingchun can beat me!"

Qi Jingchun took the load with one hand and flicked his sleeve with the other. The wine flowing at Cui Yu's feet slid into the pool, showing a mysterious water curtain with ripples.

Just like Cui Yu before.

As expected of the former classmates and brothers.

Raising hands and feet, all are the romantic freehand brushwork of readers.

In the water curtain, there are teenagers and little girls with backpacks on their backs.

The little girl in the red padded jacket was walking sideways, raising her head and asking the boy this and that, asking things and things.

The straw-shoe boy smiled and patiently answered the little girl's strange questions. If he encountered a problem he didn't understand, the boy would say he didn't know.

Teenagers don't feel ashamed, and little girls don't feel boring.

Qi Jingchun asked, "Cui Yu, don't you understand yet?"

Cui Yu stared at the picture, his face pale, his lips trembling, and he murmured: "This is impossible!"

Finally, he raised his head, the young national teacher with moles on his eyebrows, his delicate face was twisted to a terrifying level, "Qi Jingchun, you actually chose a woman as your only direct disciple?!"

Qi Jingchun looked at the unfamiliar young man's face and asked back with a smile, "Why not?!"

Cui Yu took a deep breath and raised the corners of his mouth, "But the young man's heart remains the same. If it's a big deal, I will remove all the backing hands. On the contrary, I will help him find the whetstone along the way. I can still win! It's just a little less. What, Qi Jingchun, Do you want to turn around and harm Chen Ping'an in order to block my way?"

Cui Yu's face was mad and proud, "Haha, I and the boy in Mud Bottle Alley have a relationship of weal and woe, Qi Jingchun, how do you fight with me?!"

Qi Jingchun said calmly: "I advise you to cut off this involvement now. It's too late to stop now. At most, you will fall from the tenth floor to the sixth floor, and you can still stay in the middle five."

Cui Yu said with a gloomy face: "Qi Jingchun, have you lost your mind?"

Qi Jingchun glanced at Cui Chan, sighed, stretched out his fingers together, and shook them lightly.

The boy in straw sandals and the little girl in the red padded jacket in the picture didn't notice it, but Cui Yu watched the boy's head, and suddenly there was a jasper hairpin, which was quietly pinned in the bun.

Cui Yu's face was sluggish, shocked and frightened. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Qi Jingchun tremblingly, "Qi Jing..."

He couldn't even say the last word of spring.

In an instant.

Cui Yu's seven orifices bleed from the loss of Taoism and nearly collapsed.

Sitting back down on the chair, Cui quickly made a treasure bottle mark on both hands in front of him, and said hoarsely, "Peace your soul!"

Qi Jingchun raised his head and looked at the patio, without looking at Cui Yu, who was horrific, and said, "If you suffer a loss, you must remember it. If you dare to stumble again, I have a way to get you from the first qi practitioner. The fifth floor fell into a common man. Of course, with the temperament that you must smash the south wall when you hit it, you must not believe it, it doesn't matter, it is up to you to believe it or not. The first time, I asked you not to lose confidence in Mr. If you don’t believe it, you will end up in a fall. Before I come to Lizhu Cave, I ask you not to take action against Shanya Academy, but you still don’t believe it. So this time, it’s up to you.”

Qi Jingchun left the Yuan family's ancestral house on Erlang Lane, and walked on earth for the last time. He first went to the school, then to the stone arch bridge, and then to the grave of his younger brother Ma Zhan. Finally, Qi Jingchun went to heaven.

last of the last.

Qi Jingchun returned to the ground and quietly walked beside the straw-shoe boy and the red-padded jacket girl, walking side by side with them.

It's just that they don't know it.

Every time the three took a step, the figure of Mr. Qi dissipated.

He finally stopped and looked at the two children's backs in the south. The scholar was worried, regretful, reluctant, relieved, and proud.

He waved softly and said goodbye silently.

That's all.

Good.

"Huh? Why do you have a hosta on your head?!"

"Ah? I don't know."

"When did it happen? Chen Pingan! You are actually rich, right?"

"Really not. At least it's not anymore. I've only been rich for a few days."

"Okay. Then you have a wooden sword exposed in the basket, what's the matter?"

"I do not know either."

"Chen Pingan! If you do this again, I really don't like you today!"

"I really don't know..."

"Forget it, forget it, don't like you tomorrow."
