Chapter 840 Hometown
Listening to Chen Pingan's justification, she even did not hesitate to pour dirty water on her husband. Ning Yao remained silent, so Chen Pingan changed a bench and sat next to Ning Yao. She looked even angrier, unwilling Sitting next to him, he moved his position.Chen Pingan didn't make any progress either, so he just sat in his seat and drank silently.
The love between men and women, what is meant by flirtatious and fickle, is that a person obviously only has a jar of sincere wine, but he wants to drink it with everyone.
What is affectionate is to bury a jar of wine deep in your heart, and then drink it to the end alone one day, until you drink it all, how can you not get drunk.
It's just that Chen Pingan was carrying the hip flask in one hand, and quietly put the other hand on the bench between the two of them, like a crab running amok, sneaking closer to Ning Yao.
When he was about to succeed, Ning Yao suddenly punched him on the back of his hand. The strength of his hand was so strong that Chen Pingan was so angry that he sank into his dantian. Rub your chin.
After a moment of silence, Ning Yao asked, "You seem to have changed your impression of Song Jixin?"
Earlier in the courtyard, Chen Pingan chatted about this neighbor for many years when he was young. Although the words were hurtful, the evaluation was actually okay.
Chen Pingan nodded, "Let's not talk about big things, Song Jixin has done a lot. I'll just talk about one small thing."
Song Jixin, who became the Niping Lane of Song Mu, the king of Dali Fan, used to sit in the old dragon city, the top of Nanyue Mountain, and the accompanying capital of Dadu. During the three wars, Song Jixin was always on the front line of the battlefield and was in charge of dispatching Although there are military generals who are familiar with war such as Dali patrol envoys Su Gaoshan and Cao Ping for the specific formation of troops, in fact there are many key issues, or some that seem to be between two or two, but will actually affect them. Regarding the follow-up trend of the battle situation, Song Mu had to make up his own mind.
If it is just a Dali feudal king with a false title, just a feudal mansion decoration that is responsible for stabilizing the army's morale without hesitating his life, he will definitely not win the respect of the Dali border army and the monks on Baopingzhou mountain.
"The territory under the jurisdiction of the Dali Peidu, including many vassal states, all states, counties and counties, as long as they lend usury to all academies and schools, Song Jixin ordered the imperial courts of various countries and local governments to transfer these loan sharks. , After being caught, all of them chopped off one hand. If they dared to escape, cross the border, and go to hide elsewhere, the more serious the crime, the two hands would be gone.
"Actually, it's not a trivial matter. It's just that it's not very eye-catching compared to other major events in the mansion and accompanying capital."
Ning Yao said: "It's really not like what Song Jixin would do."
In her impression, Song Jixin is a son who has no worries about food and clothing, and beside him is a maidservant with a bad name, appearance, and character.
Chen Pingan explained with a smile: "It may be that Song Jixin feels that when a scholar has no money, he must have no money. Before leaving the school, if he has no money, he should study hard, study hard every day, and work hard honestly. Fame. It’s just that young students, or young Confucian scholars, inevitably lack concentration, so Song Jixin will settle accounts with those who have the guts to earn this money.”
"What Song Jixin hated the most when he was a child actually happened to be that he had no worries about food and clothing, and had too much money in his pocket. This is really not hypocritical. After all, it's like being poked in the back by neighbors every day and scolding an illegitimate child. Who will listen to it?" No, it's not good."
"Song Jixin is such a coquettish person, and he never moved when he arrived in Niping Lane, a place of chicken shit and shit. Maybe it's because he thinks that I am similar to him. One is that he has no parents, and the other is that there is nothing. So living in Niping Lane, Song Jixin won't be too sympathetic."
After Chen Ping finished his drink, he put the empty jug on the bench, poured some salted soybeans from his sleeve into the palm of his hand, and handed it to Ning Yao, Ning Yao halfway through.
After learning boxing, especially after becoming a pure martial artist with a golden body, Chen Pingan's calluses on his hands and feet have disappeared.
Chen Pingan picked up a soybean, threw it into his mouth, and knocked his shoe lightly.
The pair of cloth shoes on his feet were sewn by the old cook himself. The craftsmanship is better than women's needlework. On the desolate mountain, those who are willing to wear cloth shoes have a share. As for Jiang Shangzhen, it's hard to say how many pairs. In particular, how much immortal money Jiang Shangzhen spent is even more difficult to say.
In fact, there were two pairs of cloth shoes sewn by Xiao Nuanshu, but Chen Pingan was reluctant to wear them, so they kept them in the square inch.
Chen Ping'an was sure that he brought Ning Yao back to Luopo Mountain this time, and Ning Yao would definitely have one too.Nuan Shu, the busiest housekeeper every day, can't think of anything.
Chen Pingan ate the salted soybeans, smiled and squinted his eyes, his eyes were gentle, as if he saw a girl in a pink skirt who left his house early in the morning, and when she walked alone in a deserted place, she would lightly roll up her sleeves and walk briskly, Almost at the gate of a house, he slowed down, picked up a bunch of keys, skillfully selected one, opened the door, broom, rag, water ladle, bucket... Well organized, busy, sweeping the yard, wiping the tables and stools, drying bedding……
What, you Dali cavalry dare to surround me on Luoba Mountain?
Chen Pingan turned his head and glanced in the direction of the palace.
Maybe the 11 members of the earthly branch have not realized one thing until now, he is higher than that white-clothed Chen Pingan, who is only a part of him after all.
This means that at a certain moment, Chen Ping'an knows all the means of that pure divinity, and in the fight in the cage, the other self did not exert all his strength at all.
Ning Yao noticed the change of Chen Pingan's mood, turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Ping closed his eyes and said with a smile: "It's nothing, just the more I think about it, the more angry I get, I'll find some wood and make a food box for supper."
Ning Yao didn't bother to ask what this anger had to do with carpentry work and supper, but asked: "In half a month, will Nanzan really take the initiative to hand over the porcelain pieces?"
"If you ignore the natal lamp that I found later, it's not necessarily true."
"So in the house, are you trying to scare her casually?"
"It's not all about scaring, the main thing is to make her sleepless, suspicious and haunted, and she will see that everyone is a ghost."
Chen Ping sneered, and said slowly: "This empress dowager is actually an extremely accomplished person. She would not hand over the piece of broken porcelain even if she was killed. Maximization, her original idea was that there would be a best situation, that is, I would nod and agree to the deal on the spot in the house, so that, one, not only would she not have to return the tiles, but she would also be able to win over the Dali court. A swordsman of the upper five realms and a warrior of the last realm, without the name of enshrining, but there is the reality of enshrining."
"Besides the imitation Baiyujing in the accompanying capital, there are monks of the earthly branch in the dark behind the scenes, slowly accumulating cultivation, and I and Lupo Mountain are in the light, which is of great benefit to the Song family of Dali. It is obviously her. Mistakes first, sinister calculations, but let me ignore the previous suspicions against her and turn enemies into friends. The second advantage is that in the other eight continents of Haoran Tianxia, Dali Song can earn a reputation for treating meritorious people favorably .”
"Three, as the suzerain of Luopo Mountain, I have a strong relationship with Beiju Luzhou. The next sect was established in Tongyezhou, and Dali can get a share. Of course, the Dali court will be very pragmatic in doing things, and both sides will benefit from each other. Reciprocity. Fourth, I am still the last hermit official of the Great Wall of Sword Qi. In the future, there will definitely be Liu Jinglong, as well as foreign swordsmen like Xie Songhua and Yu Yue, who will have relationships with Aquarius Continent and Dali. The luck of the sword, invisibly, is very beneficial."
"Finally, as my master's closed disciple, I can help the Dali Song Clan and the Confucian Temple build a bridge, and the Song Clan can completely leave the Yunlin Jiang Clan behind."
"Tiancaidibao, who should I give it to? For example, there are 11 people in the local branch, and the two yamen in Dali have spent a lot of money. The cost of a random fight is calculated with the money of the rain."
Chen Pingan threw the last bit of salted soybeans into his mouth, and said vaguely: "These are the reasons why she was so talkative in the first place. She is the empress dowager of a country, so considerate of the overall situation, saying that she is being condescending." It's not an exaggeration at all. Don't look at Dali owed a lot of foreign debts, in fact, his family is very rich. If the brother was not preparing for the second war, he would have expected that the frontier cavalry would need to rush to the wilderness, so he could help him casually. Let the Dali court pay off the debt."
Ning Yao said: "I have all the fame and benefits, and this Nanzan has taken advantage of it, and he has a good plan."
Chen Ping clapped his hands, "To say that she has long hair but short knowledge is wronging our Empress Dowager."
Ning Yao frowned and said, "There must be a bigger reason for her to carry on to the end. Is it the Lu family of Zhongtu?"
Chen Pingan hummed, "As long as you are an individual, you will have something you care about, and Nanzan is no exception. For example, what is the surname after Dali, is it Song, is her son the emperor, and the Dali Dynasty is still alive. Can she keep half of the territory of Aquarius Continent, can she keep her empress dowager status, especially can she participate in politics again, for example, if my senior brother is gone, will she have a chance to control the monks of the earth branch, and then her One's own Dao life, or as a Lu family's child, whether there is anything more important than her life, such as a chess piece placed in Aquarius Island by the Lu family of Zhongtu, etc., each has its own severity and depth. People who can't help themselves to the Tao, the more things can be more important than the two words of life and death, after all, there are many methods on the mountain, it is very difficult for people to want to die."
On the other hand, the old servant in the Lion Garden of Qingluan Country, his name is more important than his life.Of course it's not that kind of sanctimonious name.
And Su Gaoshan, the hunting envoy of Dali, is the ambition in his heart. The status of a general from the Han clan is more important than his life.
Ning Yao asked: "Earthly branch only lacks a pure martial artist, and Dali didn't think about Pei Qian?"
Chen Pingan said: "I must have thought about it, but it seems that the senior brother has no such plan, and Pei Qian will not agree."
Ning Yao asked again: "Now, have you never thought about asking Pei Qian to make up for the earthly branch? Since you don't go to the wild world, you actually have an official status. Whether it's going to the rivers and lakes or practicing, it's very safe."
Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "I won't agree."
Ning Yao shook his head, "Is it because you don't agree, or do you think Pei Qian doesn't agree? Don't forget, Pei Qian has punched and killed the enemy in Jinjiazhou and Baopingzhou. There is no ambiguity. Why don't you ask Pei Qian himself the meaning of?"
Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, but he really hadn't thought about this.
Ning Yao said, "If Pei Qian wanted to, would you still stop her?"
Chen Pingan hesitated, "Maybe I won't stop it."
Chen Ping then laughed softly: "There is no way, even now, as long as you don't look at Pei Qian who is standing in front of you, it seems that she is still the little Heitan with two balls in her bun."
A dark little girl, slender and thin, with two small arms, dangling like wicker when she ran.
She is rambunctious, timid, thoughtful, and has a quicker brain than anyone else. She is more cunning than Li Huai, and she can easily lure people who don't know her details to hundreds of thousands of miles away.
Later, I heard Yu Xiefu and Lin Junbi say that after the Jinjiazhou war ended, the surviving local monks in Yizhou all respected the female warrior "Zheng Qian". In short, if the master and apprentice went to Jinjiazhou, where He must only recognize Zheng Qian, not any hidden officials.
Back in Aquarius Island, Pei Qian also won nicknames like "Zheng Qingming" and "Zheng Saqian".
If you ask her for a fist, you will be done with three faces.
There is even a saying that makes Chen Pingan dumbfounded. On the mountain and in the rivers and lakes, it is said that this Zheng Qian is the grand master with the most martial arts and the most old-fashioned demeanor in Aquarius Island.
What about our Aquarius Continent, Pei Qian is the most well-deserved master of martial arts.Being ruthless to the Yaozu, Zheng Scattering Money is by no means a waste of fame, only the wrong name is given, and there is absolutely no wrong nickname.But when she asks the martial arts of her own family, she is polite and courteous every time, and no matter who comes to the door to compete, she will give enough face.I really don't know what kind of demeanor Pei Qian, the preacher of a female great master, is, and Wu De must have reached the sky...
Until Pei Qian appeared to watch Zhengyang Mountain, the green-clothed sword fairy from Luopo Mountain had a fight with Yuan Zhenye from Zhengyang Mountain...
And then, there was a certain gossip that was spreading on the top of Aquarius Island, the dispute between the green and the white in the Gongde Forest.
Some people are unavoidably puzzled. They only hear the truth that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, but have they never thought that there is such a thing as the upper beam being crooked and the lower beam being straight?
But really, really, such a little Heitan girl was brought up by Chen Pingan.
It's like jumping and growing up.
She has traveled so far by herself.
In fact, everyone in Luopo Mountain knows that Chen Pingan is the most vicious on Pei Qian's side, has the strictest discipline, and seems to have the worst temper, but in the eyes of the young mountain master, the gentleness when looking at Pei Qian is not to lose Give warm trees and millet grains.
Ning Yao jokingly said, "I'll worry about you to death when Pei Qian gets married someday."
Chen Pingan snorted coldly: "Among people of the same age, there are not many who are suitable for Pei Qian."
Chen Ping put his arms around his chest, "Anyone who dares to sway their minds and flirt with those clever tricks, I will beat him out of the shit."
Ning Yao smiled and said: "Come on, it's your turn, it will be very difficult for them to cheat Pei Qian."
Chen Pingan nodded, "That's true."
He quickly added, "I still have to check."
Then he continued to add, "It's not just me, I also want to secretly recruit Zhu Lian, Cui Dongshan, Jiang Shangzhen, and Mi Yu to help me check it out. The old cook is experienced and experienced, and Cui Dongshan is thoughtful. As for Chief Zhou and Second Seat Mi, the color embryo has the most accurate vision."
"No, I still have to recruit a teacher to test whether the person's knowledge is real. Of course, if the guy's character is not good, nothing will be discussed."
Chen Ping intertwined his hands and fingers, raised his arms, stretched out, and said softly: "When Pei Qian went to the Great Wall of Sword Qi for the first time, Cui Dongshan told me in private that when Pei Qian was young, he went to the temple to give When the Bodhisattva kowtows, he will sincerely add a sentence at the end, if the Bodhisattva is very busy, you don’t have to listen to it today, it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work, you can talk about it next time. of."
Pei Qian made him swear not to tell anyone.
In fact, she probably didn't want me, the master, to know.
Ning Yao turned his head and looked at his profile.
Chen Ping turned his head and said with a smile, "Isn't he extremely handsome?"
Ning Yao nodded.
otherwise?
Otherwise, I, Ning Yao, will find an ugly monster?
Otherwise, you can still make so many Yingying and Yanyan on the mountain become nympho just by looking at it?
Chen Pingan was a little caught off guard, and rarely blushed.
Ning Yao remembered something. When she traveled to Lizhu Cave, she went to the backyard of Yang's pharmacy. She followed Chen Pingan. At that time, old man Yang asked Ning Yao two questions.
A few words are engraved on the top of the Sword Qi Great Wall.
Who is speaking?
Ning Yao said: "I didn't think much about old man Yang's question about the voice of the heart at first, but it was very helpful for me to break through the bottleneck of the Jade Realm and enter the fairyland of 'truth-seeking' in the colorful world. "
Chen Ping nodded and said: "No matter what, when I return to my hometown, I will go to the backyard of the pharmacy first."
After saying this, Chen Pingan looked down at the cloth shoes on his feet.
Ning Yao knew why, it was Chen Ping reminding him who he was.
When Chen Pingan was sitting on the steps in the Xianjia Inn, he did this kind of action.
Maybe the young apprentice from Mud Bottle Lane gradually changed his clothes, boots, identity, age...
But the only thing that hasn't faded away is the pair of straw sandals in my heart.
Chen Pingan planned to make a special trip to ask Zhao Duanming later, what are the special authentic small restaurants in the capital, so that he could take Ning Yao to walk around the streets and alleys, and stroll around casually.
Remembered some past events.
"If I shave this beard, you two together will not be as handsome as me."
"You huh, the hot pot is very spicy? Don't you have wine at hand, which can relieve the spicyness. What kind of eyes do you have, will I be fooled by you... Haha, what a melon skin, I really believe it."
"Drink slowly, the wine won't get out of the bowl."
Chen Ping's hands covered his sleeves, leaning forward, shaking his shoulders slightly, looking at the quiet but not so deserted street.
Leaving home-cooked meals aside, Chen Pingan suddenly discovered that in his life, he had eaten a sumptuous feast, such as big fish and big meat, which can be counted on the fingers of his fingers. At the servant's house, I ate a mountain and wild offering that Chen Pingan still has a little heart for. After that, I had a banquet with the emperor's family in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom in the blessed land of lotus flowers. It was rare for Ping An to spend money on a banquet. At that time, Han Jingling, the prince of Shihao Kingdom, and Huang He, the son of the great general, were invited to eat and drink.
Ning Yao asked: "When did you stop wearing straw sandals? When you arrived at the Great Wall of Sword Qi?"
Chen Ping shook his head and said with a smile: "If I really want to talk about the first time, I went to the capital of the Sui Dynasty. At that time, I specially bought a suit and changed the boots, but it turned out to be very awkward to wear on my feet. I almost didn't know how to walk. And in the end, I didn’t go to the academy, and ran away secretly. At that time, I was mainly worried that Xiao Baoping, Li Huai and the others would be looked down upon if they stood with me. Later, I realized that I was thinking too much. It's time to run away."
Then Chen Pingan laughed to himself, "Actually, I didn't wear straw sandals before I was five years old. Do you still remember that in the house in Mud Ping Lane, I hid a clay pot in the corner?"
Ning Yao nodded, "Remember, the one where you hid copper coins and broken porcelain pieces."
The earthen pot, except for the broken porcelain pieces, seemed to have been kept by Chen Ping'an at the ancestral house since then, and even Ning Yao didn't know what else was in it... "family property".
And every time Chen Ping returned to his hometown from a long trip, he would stay overnight in Niping Lane, alone, waiting for the dawn.
When Chen Pingan was young, he didn't want anyone to pity him, and he sincerely felt that he was doing well.
Chen Ping smiled and said: "Actually, when I was young, I didn't sell everything cheap to pay back the money. I kept two things."
There is a custom in his hometown, no matter whether there is money or not, every household is like this, otherwise it is not considered a family.
Ning Yao turned around and asked curiously, "What?"
Chen Pingan smiled brightly, raised his hands, and put them in front of him. The distance between the palms was very short, and he said softly, "A pair of shoes I wore when I was a child are only this big, ha, they are very small, right?"
Then Chen Pingan gestured a few more times, "There is still a small piece of clothing, spread it out, it must be this big."
She turned her head suddenly, not looking at the smiling man.
He stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said softly: "Ning Yao, from now on, I've decided on the name of our child, and I'll call it Chen Ning, okay? Of course it doesn't matter if you have your surname, but I always feel that' Ning Chen' is not as good as 'Chen Ning'."
Chen Ning.
Chen Ping'an's Chen, Ning Yao's Ning, An Ning's Ning, that child, whether it is a boy or a girl, will always live a stable life and have a peaceful mind.
In fact, Chen Ping wanted a daughter more, a girl is better, a little padded jacket, and then she looks more like her mother, and her temper can be as much as she likes.
----
Song Xu stayed alone.
Yuan Huajing sat on the futon inside the house, and Song Xu didn't enter the house to sit down, but just sat on the threshold. The leaders of the two small hills seldom get together alone.
Yuan Huajing let out a foul breath, and asked for the first time, "Song Xu, do you bring any wine?"
Song Xu smiled and said, "I don't have anything close to me, and I'm not greedy for alcohol. I didn't bring anything with me. You can find Gaiyan or Yu Yu, they are willing to earn this money."
Yuan Huajing was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Actually, people's hearts have been completely dismantled."
Song Xu said: "I don't care. Except for you, the other nine have the same mentality as me. So what was really dismantled by Mr. Chen is only your selfishness and ambition. If you really want to replay, in fact It was you who personally helped Mr. Chen solve a potential hidden danger that should have had the opportunity to restrain Luposhan. Even if we will join hands in the future, I feel that being tossed about by you is like what Mr. Chen said, just queuing up to deliver It's just a human head."
"Besides that, you have to admit that, just for yourself, you don't have the slightest bit of courage to go and challenge Mr. Chen. It's pointless to deceive yourself and others."
"For our sword cultivators, this is actually a complete loss. The next thing you have to do is to mend your state of mind, otherwise the most likely to have inner demons is not Sui Lin and Lu Hui, but you Yuan Huajing."
"By the way, if in the next hundred years, a person with the best cultivation aptitude turns out to be the person with the lowest realm, what I can do is not to make fun of Yuan Huajing."
Yuan Huajing turned his head to look at the young prince who cultivated Jindan Sword, "You are much smarter than I imagined."
Song Xu shook his head and said, "Compared to Mr. Chen and Uncle Huang, how smart am I?"
This Yuan Huajing is definitely not a hero. He is a hero with a strong heart.
Song Xu has always felt that it is better to bring out a general and minister who loses his vitality and vents his ancestral shadows than an ordinary boy who accumulates virtue and good luck.
That's why Song Xu and Yuan Huajing couldn't talk together.But the original two people, a prince of the Song family and a descendant of the Shangzhu family, should hit it off the most.
Song Xu folded his hands on his chest, leaned to one side, and turned his back to Yuan Huajing. His Royal Highness, the Second Prince of Dali, faced the courtyard, "Have you noticed that Mr. Chen and that Chen Ping'an are like two extremes?"
"The national teacher once said that if any strong man in the world is just to be feared, it is not enough, it must be feared. If Chen Pingan, who opened the door by himself and walked out of the waterless situation before, made us all despair, It is the extinction of all things, so it is the 'Xu' in the twelve earthly branches."
"Then Mr. Chen, who came to rescue us later, was picking out the humanity that he recognized in us. At that time, he was Mao? everything else?"
Yuan Huajing looked at that figure, as if it was the first time he really knew this Prince Dali.
When Song Xuwen raised the "nursery rhyme" flying sword, especially becoming a monk of the earthly branch, it meant that Song Xu would never be an emperor in his life.
Yuan Huajing asked: "Song Xu, have you ever thought about becoming an emperor?"
Song Xu nodded, "Of course I thought about it. I even hated this 'nursery rhyme' flying sword, and then one day, I suddenly didn't want to."
"That time was a sacrificial ceremony, and we needed secret guards. I watched from a distance the father wearing the dragon robe, surrounded by stars. Of course, the emperor was also in the team. I don't know why, but instead of being envious, Instead, I felt cramped, just like the dragon robe, a cage. I had a strange thought at the time, that is, where can our Majesty the Emperor of Dali go in this life? That night, I went to the top of the city and stood At that high place, I suddenly found myself, as if the sky is big and the earth is big, I can go wherever I want, but not my father and elder brother. At that moment, I was willing to be a Qi trainer who proved Taoism and longevity."
As the elder brother of Song Xu, the Great Prince of Dali, His Royal Highness, who is sure in the future, is indeed very strategic, and his wrist is not bad, but there is a big difference between the former and the latter. When something goes wrong, he returns to the residence. Knowing not to smash those porcelains and books and confessions, because they will be recorded, but the books of sages are not dared to smash them. In the end, they can only take some silk and satin products to vent their anger. On the contrary, the third brother has a gentle temperament, although his talent is not as good as In Song Xu's opinion, the elder brother may be more resilient. As for the other younger siblings, Song Xu is even less familiar with them.
Yushu in the courtyard, Qiongzhi tobacco, how many have you ever known to fight?
Song Xu asked abruptly: "You acted without authorization this time, did you get someone's instruction from the palace?"
Yuan Huajing remained silent.
Song Xu didn't ask any more questions.There are already answers.
"It's not an example."
Song Xu got up and left, turned his head and said, "I said it."
From today onwards, Yuan Huajing has actually lost his status as the leader of the earthly branch monks.
----
On the other side of the flower shed, the old scholar didn't actually drink, he raised his legs, crossed his hands, and put them on his knees, it seemed that he glanced at the colorful knot tied by Aunt Feng's blue silk, which was very valuable.
Aunt Feng smiled and said: "Why, Wen Sheng is going to help Baihua Fudi as a lobbyist, and wants me to return this thing? Or is it that the flower owner's wife half sold and half gave away some good wine and flower god cups for this meeting? A certain leader of the Zhongtu Confucian Temple has softened his heart, so today Wen Sheng actually carries a saint's will that contains the constitution of heaven?"
The old scholar said righteously: "I am a big man, why do I get involved in the affairs between women."
not good at.
Except for his closed disciples, Wen Sheng's lineage is all bachelors who can't figure out this matter.
The old scholar said angrily: "Furthermore, because of the many years of friendship between Aunt Feng and our literary sage, who dares to be so old and young on my side when I am poor and white, and I will scold Aunt Feng for five or six times with Aunt Feng?" Basu?!"
Aunt Feng nodded, "That's good, otherwise I will issue an order to evict the guest."
This colorful knot hides a mystery, which is the root cause of why many flower gods in the history of Baihua Fudi, and the flower gods who are the masters of generations, have never been able to appear in the Ascension Realm, because the innate avenue is incomplete. At the end of a dead end.And the absence of a blessed land of hundreds of flowers in Ascension Realm is ultimately a fly in the ointment.
Haoran, a hundred flowers in the world, was indeed bullied miserably by Aunt Feng.
The old scholar said casually: "Everything in the world is caused by each other. This cause bears this effect, this effect is the other cause, and the other cause results again. Anyway, it is such a cycle of cause and effect, impregnated by all saints. The principle is this, and it cannot be simpler. So things in the world are always going around in circles to help us reunite. There are good and bad. Just talking about the truth without giving an example is playing hooligans. Let me give you an example. It is also a little involved with Aunt Feng, such as the Great Wall of Sword Qi The criminal officer Hao Su, you know? He was born in a blessed place in Fuyaozhou in the past. Not long ago, he beheaded Nan Guangguang and took in an apprentice, asking that child to swear to kill all the flower pickers on the mountain. After Hao Su committed the crime , knowing that he couldn't stay for a long time, tried to leave Haoran and seek refuge in Qingming Tianxia, but was stopped by Li Sheng, Dao's second child failed to receive him, and became angry from embarrassment, screaming with anger."
Of course, Aunt Feng didn't think that Bai Yujing's invincible heart would make her lose her composure, but the old scholar's seemingly random example was quite reasonable.
Aunt Feng thought for a moment, stretched out her two fingers, twirled the colorful knot, and took it out from the black silk. The old scholar seemed indifferent, but in fact his eyeballs were rolling.
In fact, the old scholar didn't come here to help people resolve grievances, but he was born to work hard, so he couldn't help but casually say, it's done, it's the best for Aunt Feng and Baihua Fudi to settle their feud, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work.
Aunt Feng was holding the colored knot the size of a copper coin, and the blue silk was like a waterfall, pouring down from one shoulder, like a sudden flood bursting its embankment, flowing turbulently in the deep valley.
The old scholar suddenly raised a hand, without squinting, "Senior, stop!"
Aunt Feng was puzzled, and joked: "Why, you think I'm that girl who wants to take off her clothes? When things come to an end, the elders are scared instead?"
The old scholar was so frightened that he couldn't speak fluently, he waved his hands vigorously, and quickly took a sip of wine to suppress his shock, "I can't, I can't, senior, don't joke."
Suddenly, Aunt Feng tied the colorful knot around her black hair again, and said, "Understood, Wen Sheng wants to pass this benefit on to Chen Ping'an, and help him travel to Middle-earth in the coming year, so that he can marry Baihuafudi." Good luck?"
The old scholar smiled and said, "Senior is wise."
Aunt Feng smiled and said, "Mr., paving the way for the students, is it hard work?"
The old scholar shook his head and said: "It's wrong. In the Confucian Temple of China, many sages who were not very recognized for the knowledge of literati and sages have greatly changed their impressions. It is thanks to me, a closed disciple. When they saw me, they could at most bow to Wen Sheng, but now they are different, and they are willing to ask a few words with me, an old scholar, sincerely."
And what made these old-fashioned people change their attitudes was not actually Chen Ping'an's sword, or even commanding the hidden officials in the summer palace to dispatch troops and strategize, but that this man was more "notorious" than A Liang in the Great Wall of Sword Qi. The scholars, let a Great Wall of Sword Qi who originally hated Haoran Tianxia, and later Feisheng City, have the sound of reading books, especially those local sword cultivators, gradually have a relatively peaceful attitude towards Haoran Tianxia, at least they recognize Haoran. There are good and bad.
Perhaps Chen Pingan himself has not realized one thing so far. Although he failed to change a Shujian Lake or anything by himself, he has actually changed the customs of a Great Wall of Sword Qi.
Probably this is the spring breeze sneaking into the night, moistening things silently.
Aunt Feng raised the slender catkin called the palm of the scorpion in ancient times, gently rubbed the red nails with the belly of her thumb, and asked casually: "There was a lot of movement at the inn before, and Wen Sheng doesn't seem to be particularly worried about Chen Pingan?"
The old scholar shook his head and said: "Guo Xin cares to kill the demons, I, a closed disciple, can't do it at my fingertips."
But in fact, the old scholar almost called Li Sheng directly.Anyway, bragging is not illegal.
Then the old scholar smiled, turned around and picked up the wine jar, "After a long time in peace and stability, it is inevitable that it will be boring. This is human nature. Pleasures in the world are like drinking alcohol, which often disappears when you wake up. It is extremely difficult to keep it. There is only loss. Bitter things are like tea, and there are often opportunities to reap the benefits of suffering, which makes people feel cherished. Ordinary things are drinking water, which has no taste, but you have to drink it every day, and it’s not good if you don’t drink it.”
Aunt Feng still bowed her head, raised one hand, and lightly touched the bright red nails with the other hand, as if she didn't hear the meaning behind Wen Sheng's words.
The old scholar put down the altar of Baihua Niang gently, and seeing that Aunt Feng was pretending to be stupid, she simply said clearly, "Don't think about making big bets anymore. The Confucian Temple is not good for old man Yang and you, but it is kind and righteous. That's kind enough. Besides, our Sage of Li is not very good-tempered now, so I would like to persuade seniors, don't mess with anyone you provoke. For thousands of years, Sage of Li has never said a few words in the Confucian Temple , but with you, I have been extremely patient, and have been chatting a lot. Don't take some scholars' observance of the rules as a matter of course."
Aunt Feng raised her head and said with a sweet smile: "Okay, I got it. Don't worry, I'm the one who listens to you the most in Lizhu Cave."
The old scholar nodded and said, "That's why I'm going through this."
Aunt Feng has done a lot of betting, but compared to other old immortals, her methods are more gentle and younger, like Sun Jiashu from Old Dragon City, Zhou Ju from Guanhu Academy, and Aunt Feng. They have all used different means of preaching and protecting the Tao, such as the ancestral abacus of the Sun family, and the few golden incense sticks. The latter likes to roll on the abacus, implying wealth. The little man will push the abacus beads.This is not a method of cultivation, but a veritable innate supernatural power.Then there is the humble oil lamp on the desk of the Sun family's ancestral house, which needs to be continuously refueled by the successive generations of Sun's patriarchs. It is also Aunt Feng's handwriting.
Aunt Feng began to change the subject, and said, "The letter of appointment written by Wen Sheng for Chen Ping'an is considered unprecedented?"
Talking about this, I have to drink some wine to cheer up. The old scholar took a sip of Baihua Niang, "It's okay, the old man doesn't have time to talk to me in Suishan. Li Sheng is very busy, I can't bear to disturb, I just asked The principal and deputy leaders of our Confucian Temple, old master Fu, Jingsheng Xiping... plus, there must be about twenty scholars who are qualified to eat cold pork heads, and they all kindly help to deliberate on the text."
Aunt Feng said with emotion: "To be honest, I still can't believe that Chen Ping'an really made it this far."
The old scholar crossed Erlang's legs, covered his knees with his hands, looked at the sky, and said with a smile: "I didn't know the moon when I was young, so I called it a white jade plate. Listen, my brother Bai Ye, he was a child of a rich family when he was young, otherwise Where can I write such a poem, like me, there is still peace, poor people like us, at most feel like a white bowl and cake, how can we say such rich and noble words, and a white jade plate."
Aunt Feng asked curiously, "Will Bai Ye become a swordsman in this life?"
The old scholar didn't answer this question, but just smiled to himself, no matter whether he is a sword cultivator or not, Bai Ye must wear a tiger head hat before he reaches the crown age.
It was okay when he was young, he looked cute, but he was still like this when he was a teenager, isn't he just stupid?
However, the old scholar felt that this kind of whiteness was actually another kind of pride that he had never had before.
My old scholar has added a great beauty to the world.
Aunt Feng smiled and said: "Cultivators of the Earthly Branch lineage, although their temperament is not bad, but they are inevitably arrogant in their bones, and their eyes are higher than the top. This is good. I have suffered so much when I met you, a closed disciple. After a fight, Nearly half of the cultivators were almost beaten, and they all had demons in their hearts, as expected of the hidden official of the Great Wall of Sword Qi."
She couldn't help but took a sip of wine, as a celebration, didn't those little bastards even think of her in the past?Although it was related to their ignorance of her identity, even if they knew her identity, they might not respect her much.Especially the sword cultivator Yuan Huajing with a heart higher than the sky, in fact, for so many years, he has been trying to kill a god with the flying sword "Tingling" renamed "Yelang".
The old scholar Nian Xu said: "If there are earthly branches, there will be heavenly stems, and there will be plans such as 28 constellations. For example, at Bai Yujing, the second Taoist has been planning five hundred spirit officials."
The most important thing about this kind of thing is to fight for the first place. It is to occupy a certain one first, and it will form a kind of first mover in the Dao cycle. Whoever makes this move will form an indestructible chessboard.If other people want to imitate this move, it will be too late and they will be rejected by the Daoist.And this first-hand character must be the reincarnation of a god with a compatible fortune, and the threshold is extremely high.
Aunt Feng hesitated for a moment, waved her sleeves, and gusts of wind swept through a Fire God Temple, and then said: "Lu Chen set up a fortune-telling stall in the Lizhu Cave, after all, I personally participated in the completion of the Earthly Branches. I looked for Lu Chen, and from his tone, it was obvious that Cui Chen's plan had already been counted on, but when he mentioned it, he was rather absent-minded, and only said, "I don't dare to be the first in the world. I can only follow others." At the back of the ass, follow the gourd to draw a ladle, at most win by quantity.'”
"Lu Chenlin also said something strange to me, saying that a certain accident given by Cui Chen was the real accident of the wild world. I found out later that it was about the blocking of the wild world by Aquarius Continent."
The old scholar had strange eyes and a complex expression on his face.
Aunt Feng noticed something strange about the old scholar, "Is there any other mystery?"
The old scholar drank and didn't speak.
Wen Hai of the Wild World is Zhou Mi. Before he ascended to the sky, he chose the first person of ten days. After he ascended to the sky, the wild world instantly filled up ten people. Later, Zhou Qinggao stepped into the Jade Realm.
In Aquarius Continent, Cui Chan, the master of the Great Li Dynasty, began to build the twelve earthly branches.
After that came the 28 Constellations taught by the third head of Bai Yujing, the first mover, the younger brother who was accepted by that generation of masters, with the Dao name Shanqing.
The former Haoran Jia Sheng, and the later Wen Hai Zhou Mi, had been practicing Taoism for a long time, and they were the first to start planning.
In fact, Lu Chen may not have thought of this later than Zhou Mi and Cui Chen, but even if Lu Chen thought of it earlier, he would definitely be unwilling to work hard because of his natural laxity and lazy temper.
Aunt Feng said helplessly, "Wen Sheng, don't be silent."
The old scholar sighed, raised his hand, and pointed to his head, "Cui Chan deliberately suppressed his mind many years ago, that is, deliberately lowered his own chess strength. As for when did he move? Roughly When Ah Liang returned to Haoran Tianxia, maybe earlier, what is ignorance, even if he didn’t know it, so Cui Dongshan was separated from Cui Chan’s mind and soul back then. Although he did have a plan, it was a continental layout One of the links, but the biggest intention, is just a trick to deceive the eyes. Only by fooling yourself can you fool all the monks on the top of the world. Therefore, this is the biggest surprise for Zhou Mi and the whole wild world. With this accident, there will be subsequent accidents.”
"Do you really think that Zhou Mi is unprepared against Aquarius Continent? How is it possible? You must know that the worst strategy of the entire wild world is the best strategy of Zhou Mi alone. Since Zhou Mi has long been on guard against Aquarius Continent and the Great Li Dynasty, especially Li The Flying Ascension Platform in Zhudongtian is something that is determined to be obtained, so how could Zhou Mi not have some extremely careful deduction and calculation?"
The old scholar murmured: "Now we are aggressively attacking the wilderness, what do we lack? Immortal money? Human and material resources? The combat power of monks on the top of the mountain? None of them. We are superior in these. The only thing we lack, the most lacking, It was such a big accident that even Zhou Mi could not count."
Aunt Feng was dumbfounded when she heard this, is Cui Chan mentally ill? !
It’s no wonder that in Lizhudongtian, Cui Dongshan, who was able to play a colorful game with Zheng Juzhong, “turned against each other” with Qi Jingchun’s junior brother. With the future junior junior brother as the chessboard, Cui Chan was at a disadvantage everywhere. At that time, she I also found it very interesting. It was so interesting to see that young man with a mole on the center of his brow slumped everywhere, falling down again and again. She stood by and watched the excitement. Come with me, did that embroidered tiger do it on purpose?Then Qi Jingchun already understood it, and just cooperated with it?Well, you two brothers, think we are all fools?
Aunt Feng slapped her head, shook her head vigorously and said: "No, no, you have already said it yourself, old scholar, it is his best policy to be thorough, so why don't Cui Chan and Qi Jingchun stop it?! Isn't it a waste of effort in the end? field?"
The old scholar squinted his eyes and said: "Preserving Liuxia Continent, Beiju Lu Continent and Aiai Continent, so that the three continents, the mountains and rivers will not lose an inch of land, and the eight continents will not be occupied by the barbaric world, and the middle-earth continent will be besieged. How many people will die in our Haoran world? In Aunt Feng's mouth, is it just a waste of work?"
Aunt Feng was terrified, she immediately got up and apologized: "Wen Sheng, I made a slip of the tongue."
It's really this old scholar who came to visit as a guest. He smiled generously, had a pleasant face, and was so approachable that Aunt Feng almost forgot about it. Who has a good temper among the several descendants of Wen Sheng?The national teacher Cui Chan who once said "His Majesty just listen"?Liu Shiliu, who beat the "Sword Immortal Embryo" of Zhongtu Shenzhou into a derogatory word, who once expelled the water descendants from all over the world and fled in a hurry just to survive?Forcing Qi Jingchun, the patriarch of the Lu family of the Yin Yang family, who almost solved it by himself but couldn't?Or the closed disciple who cut off the head of the Empress Dowager Dali with a sword not long ago?
And the source of this ethos is the old scholar in front of him.
The old scholar nodded, then blinked his eyes, "I really don't know why, I'm notorious for only accepting apprentices and teaching, and I'm not good at beating around the bush. It's enough for me to be better than blue. "
Ok.My old scholar is not good at it, but several of my students are very good at it.The first disciple, Xiao Qi, the closed disciple.
As for Zuo Zuo and Jun Qian, forget it, they are all stupid fools.He'll only put on airs for the junior brother, looking for scolding, right?How dare you blame Mr. for being biased?Of course not.
Aunt Feng was really curious, and she said: "Master Wensheng, just give me a little reminder, and there will be rewards! For example... I am willing to help the Confucian Temple, and take the initiative to do something in the wild world. On Wensheng's vein."
The old scholar shook his head, "Farewell, there is no need for seniors to do this. If you have no merit, you should be ashamed of it. Our lineage is not good for this."
Aunt Feng sat back on the steps, raised her head and took a sip of wine, wiped her mouth with a wry smile and said, "I dare not go back to the town after Wen Sheng said that."
I didn't think it was so dangerous before, it was more interesting, but now I start to feel panicky.
Think back to that time.
A Lizhu Cave, just a few mountains and rivers, just a few people.
The teacher of the small town school, the sage who once lived in Lizhu Cave, Qi Jingchun.
The later nephew Cui Dongshan, or the former brother Cui Chan.
The old sword under the bridge.One of the five supreme beings, the sword bearer.Back then, Aunt Feng and the others all mistakenly thought she was just the sword spirit.

Ningyao is No.1 in the colorful world today.
Later, Zheng Juzhong in Baidi City also appeared in the town.
Just imagine, anyone who has traveled abroad, who would dare to make a mistake here and claim to be invincible?
Compared with swordsmanship?Taoism?martial arts?Supernatural powers?calculating?
Regardless of whether you are a great monk of the Ascension Realm, whether it is Nan Guangguang who has been decapitated by the criminal officer Haosu, or these powerful Ascendants who were born in the wild and have the Taoist name Qingmi, if you know in advance that a small Lizhu Cave It is estimated that they will have weak legs when they walk, and they may not be as courageous as Chen Lingjun.
In the small town, the older ones would never dare to provoke the slightest one, and the younger ones, would outsiders dare?In fact, I dare not.
The youngest generation back then included Chen Pingan, Liu Xianyang, Song Jixin, Ma Kuxuan, Li Baoping, Li Huai, Gu Can, Zhao Yao, Lin Shouyi, Xie Ling, Sudian, Shi Lingshan...
Looking back, even the locals in the small town, or Aunt Feng, are in the same situation of looking at the flowers in the fog.
"Why don't you dare to go back? If you are upright, you will not be afraid of the shadow slanting. If you have no ghosts in your heart, you will not be afraid of walking at night."
The old scholar smiled and said: "But having said that, it's really not like Aunt Feng and you. There are infinite people in the world, and our time is limited. It may be because of this that we cherish this journey against the world even more."
Those who cultivate the Tao are no longer human.
In the eyes of some people, the world is an empty city.
this is not right.
The old scholar stood up and planned to go back to the Confucian Temple. Of course, he did not forget to put the two altars of Baihua Niang into his sleeves, and thanked Aunt Feng, "But let the master be drunk and treat a foreign land as his hometown. If there are more Aunt Feng like this Senior, it is a blessing in the world."
Aunt Feng got up and asked tentatively, "Wen Sheng, why don't you tell me the reason?"
The old scholar smiled and said: "After listening so much, if you are my closed disciple, you already have the answer in your heart."
Aunt Feng stretched out her hand to twist the colorful knot, and said angrily, "Wen Sheng, if you don't tell me, I'll take it for granted."
The old scholar smiled and shook his head, this is boring.Besides, I didn't take it seriously, as for the closed disciples, it's even more so.Aunt Feng is not the only one who is willing to destroy flowers with harsh hands.
Aunt Feng sighed and resigned to her fate, "One yard belongs to one yard, and I will send the things as they are. Wen Sheng doesn't have to worry, after taking care of Chen Ping'an, he will only be regarded as a guest when he travels to the blessed land of hundreds of flowers. It's not difficult for you to be a guest of the blessed land."
Twelve months a year, in the Blessed Land of Hundred Flowers, there is a high-ranking December flower god. Among the twelve flower gods, there is the blessed land flower master empress, and the four life masters who are in charge of the four seasons of flowers. The God of Flowers, the twelve Goddesses of Flowers, all have their own natal Keqing, and there is also a Taishang Keqing who is similar to Bai Ye to Peony. Of course, Bai has never appreciated it, and has never visited the blessed land.
Therefore, the vain title of Taishang Keqing should not be taken seriously. It is mostly a sentimental act by the flower god, and the position of Taishang Keqing in the entire blessed land of hundreds of flowers has been hanging for thousands of years. In her aunt's hand, she took back the colorful knot made from the lifeblood of the flower gods.
The old scholar's eyes lit up, it's very kind of senior to compare his heart with his heart.
It's just that the answer, if you still don't say it, it will suffocate you.
Aunt Feng suddenly said: "Why don't I make a bet with Wen Sheng, the bet is ten altars of Baihua wine, which I have drunk for so many years, and there is not much left. Just bet that Chen Pingan can't give the answer, how about it?"
The old scholar became interested, and he pulled his beard and said: "What will happen if senior wins? After all, senior's chances of winning are too great. In my opinion, it is a sure bet to win, so there are only ten jars of wine, isn't it a little less?"
Aunt Feng twitched her lips, "Then eighteen jars of wine, I only keep two jars for myself. If I win, the knot will still be given to Chen Pingan, but after he becomes the Taishang Keqing, he must let the December Flower God, come to my side to admit my mistake. If Chen Pingan gets the knot and travels in the blessed land of hundreds of flowers, no matter whether he is the Taishang Keqing or not, as long as he fails to make Flower God admit his mistake, he has to promise me one thing, such as Protect the flower picking thieves on the mountain from being killed."
The old scholar said in shock, "Isn't it appropriate to gamble so big?"
Aunt Feng smiled and said, "Then forget it?"
The old scholar rubbed his hands together and said, "That's all, just gamble, just gamble, it's fun to gamble."
Aunt Feng used her natal supernatural powers to pick up a small stream from the long river of time, and then condense into a gust of breeze, heading towards Chen Ping'an at the entrance of the inn.
Aunt Feng was about to speak when the old scholar took out a jar of wine from his sleeve, shook it, and said confidently, "I won't lose, so it doesn't matter if I tell you the answer first."
Aunt Feng still didn't know what to say. Later, when the ray of breeze returned to the flower shed of the Huoshen Temple, Chen Pingan almost instantly listened to Mr.'s words, and gave the answer on the spot. He only said four words. In Shujian Lake, I said it a long time ago.
"Please enter the urn."
