Sword of Coming

Liu Xu walked out of the Lotus Root Blessed Land, with slight ripples, and came to a courtyard. The umbrella bloomed like a flower, hanging in the air, slowly rotating, and Liu Xu appeared in the "cool shade".

There is a little girl in black standing straight at the "door". She slowly turns her head to the far left and then moves her eyes to the right, repeating the cycle, which is euphemistically called patrolling.

There is also a white-haired boy beside him, who is responsible for recording the exact time when outsiders enter and leave the blessed land. This Luolu Mountain genealogy officer works as a doorkeeper with the little girl carrying a cotton bag cross-body.

It was only when Liu Xu arrived at Luopo Mountain that he learned that this place was called Jiling Peak, but the Jise Peak where the Luopo Mountain Ancestral Hall is located is a secondary peak, not the ancestral mountain.

Because the owner of the mountain, the chief steward Zhu Lian, and the master in charge Chang Ming are not on the mountain now, the "key to the door" of the blessed land has been given to Nuan Shu for safekeeping. There is a house specially built in the mountain to store the parasol umbrellas. In fact, apart from a layer of blindness, there are no landscape restrictions in the house.

First, it was recorded at the mountain gate. The current head of the Luoma River family said that he wanted to talk to Master Chen about something. He heard that Chen Ping'an had gone to the blessed land. Liu Xu originally planned to wait. The girl in pink skirt asked if he was in a hurry. Liu Xu Xu said it was not in a hurry and could wait. The girl in the pink skirt asked Liu Jianxian to wait for a moment and ran to find Wei Wenlong, the accountant of the Quan Mansion who was the largest official in the mountain at that time. After Wei Wenlong nodded, Nuanshu opened the parasol umbrella, and Liu Xu's trip to Qiu Qi Lake took place. Before Xu left, he took out a bag of Grain Rain money and said that he should follow the rules. When monks enter and leave the blessed land, spiritual energy will leak out, and their luck may be attached and taken out of the blessed land, just like mountaineering clothes stained with cloud dew. So the money was treated as a burden. Nuan Shu just shook his head and said no. Liu Jianxian is a good friend of his mountain master, so there is no need to worry about it. If the mountain master finds out about this later, he will definitely blame himself for not treating guests well... At that time, the white-haired boy just grinned, Yin Guan No one can blame Nuan Shutou. However, Liu Xu insisted on paying, otherwise he would wait outside for Chen Ping'an to return to the mountains. Nuan Shu couldn't resist the serious-looking Luomahe Liu Family Sword Immortal, so he had to temporarily accept the bag of fairy money, which was very heavy.

It's definitely not snow money or Xiaoshu money.

Liu Xu returned to Jiling Peak and quickly said goodbye. He politely refused to see the little girl in black off the mountain and returned to Niujiao Ferry alone, boarded the ferry from Changchun Palace and continued his journey south.

But before leaving, Liu Xu invited his "fellow villager" Xiao Mili to visit the Liu family in Luoma River when he had time. He said that his family members all thought that the drinks in Dumb Lake were delicious, and they were very impressed by Protector Zhou who could serve as a protector and worshiper at Luo Po Mountain. It is admiration and honor.

This made Xiaomi Li very happy. He stuffed a bunch of dried fish in his cotton satchel to Liu Jianxian and said he would take it with him on the way to prepare wine and food. Liu Xu was not polite and said that in the past at the wine shop, the second shopkeeper would always say that he would take the fish from my mountain. Dried small fish paired with wine is a unique dish with a unique taste.

When Nuanshu handed the money bag to Accountant Wei, when Wei Wenlong opened it, he discovered that except for the Guyu coins on top, the bottom was actually filled with priceless gold and copper coins.

After careful counting, there were thirty-six gold and copper coins with simple shapes, which were not the same as the Spring Festival money, support money and victory money in the town back then.

The white-haired boy clicked his tongue in amazement and repeatedly praised the Liu family of Luomahe for being so rich, the Liu Jianxian for being so kind, and the Yinguan Ancestor for his incredible ability to make friends!

It seems to be a set of "Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs of Beidou Stars" gold and fine copper coins. One side is inscribed with the name of the star and an auspicious saying. The bottom is engraved with the outline of the city. On the other side, there is a celestial star map and a sitting god general shrouded in rays of light... The book is as complex as a book. Wei Wenlong didn't know the origin and reason for the casting of these gold and fine copper coins. He could probably ask Cui Dongshan, who was currently entertaining guests in another mansion, but it was obvious that these old gold and fine copper coins were in excellent condition and could be called "beautiful products". The price is much higher than ordinary gold and copper coins.

Previously, Liu Xu saw an elusive middle-aged man in a blue shirt at the mountain gate. He clasped fists with Liu Xu and said with a smile: "The chief minister of Luolu Mountain worships Zhou Fei. I have met the head of the Liu family."

As soon as he heard that someone from Luoma River in Luzhou, Beiju was coming to Luopo Mountain, Jiang Shangzhen started hiding in brother Dafeng's house at the foot of the mountain. When he opened a certain account book and calculated it carefully, it was wrong, I was He has never provoked any woman from the Liu family in Luomahe. The Liu family only has a good relationship with the Yuan family from the nearby Sanlang Temple. She is an upright person and has no reason to hide and dare not see others. So I stayed here and waited for Liu Xu to show up.

Liu Xu stopped and clasped his fists to return the salute, "Liu Xu, Luomahe, has met Old Sect Leader Jiang."

If Jiang Shangzhen had not been worthy of the word "Sword Immortal" during the battle at Tongyezhou, which had greatly changed the impression of this person on Luzhou Mountain in Beiju, Liu Xu would not have been willing to stop and say hello, otherwise according to the dialect in his hometown, If you have money, you will have money. If you are of a higher level, I won't stick to you. What's more, Liu Xu no longer feels that people's words are scary. After all, more things are worse than less things. He really doesn't want to get his crotch covered with yellow mud. After all, if Beiju Luzhou finds out that he and Jiang Shangzhen drank at the same table, Luo Mahe Liu's The reputation is gone.

So when Jiang Shangzhen said that he would give Liu Xu a ride to Niujiaodu, Liu Xu flatly rejected the other party's kindness.

I just say that nowadays in Luzhou, Beiju, every time I talk about the young hidden official, I feel a little regretful, and there is always a feeling that the white jade is slightly flawed, why did Jiang Thief become a registered worshiper.

However, he quickly helped the young hidden official to find an excuse. He must have been really short of money in Luopo Mountain, so the rich and powerful Jiang Thief took advantage of the situation and had a vegetarian meal at the corpse of Luopo Mountain. It can be seen that Shanzhu Chen established the sect in his hometown back then. It was so difficult at the beginning. He must have been too poor to expose the blame. But Jiang Thief was too thick-skinned. He could just get out after making money with interest. He stayed in the mountain shamelessly, causing harm to Chen Yinguan and Luo Luoshan. What is the good reputation for?

Nowadays, whenever a visitor comes to Luopo Mountain and can sit down to drink tea at the gate of the mountain, or goes up the mountain to drink, Luopo Mountain will give him a sword talisman cast by the Longxiang Sword Sect in the past.

Liu Xu said in his heart: "Excuse me, Old Sect Leader Jiang and Master Chen Shan, please tell me that the bag of fairy money is a personal gift from me, Liu Xu. The subsequent business between Luopo Mountain and the Liu family will be settled separately."

The bag of gold and fine copper coins was sent to Liu Xu by Liu Xu from Luomahe. After Liu Xu Feijian inquired about it, Feijian quickly replied with a letter.

Jiang Shangzhen nodded, "It's a small matter, I'm happy to help."

Zheng Dafeng sat on a bamboo chair next to Taoist Master Xianwei, closed his book, and said with a smile: "At first glance, he is an old man with stories."

Jiang Shangzhen nodded and said: "The Luo Ma He Liu family is enough to write more than a dozen Jianghu legendary novels."

Zheng Dafeng said in surprise: "This guy is actually the current head of the Liu family in Luzhou, Beiju?"

Patting his head, Zheng Dafeng exclaimed in amazement: "Now that I think about it, people really cannot be judged by their appearance. I never thought that a swordsman with such an innocent card would be such a talented man. He dressed up like this when he went out."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said: "That's why I fell in love with the mountain master."

At that time, at the wine table in Dali Capital, Chen Pingan placed three gold and copper coins on the table.

"Liu Xu, do you have this kind of gold and copper coins? Is the Liu family of Luomahe willing to sell them?"

"I don't have it on hand, but as long as the Luomahe Liu family has it in stock, they will definitely sell it."

"Not embarrassed?"

"If someone else asked this kind of question, the Liu family in Luomahe would not entertain guests. If you leave alone, you will be punished with a bowl."

Business is business, swordsmanship is swordsmanship.

In the private residence of Dabai Goose, Cui Dongshan took the senior sister Pei Qian and was entertaining the guest Fu Lu Yuxuan.

Jun Qian and Bai also seemed to be sidekicks. This made the old man very flattered. This trip to Luoluo Mountain in Aquarius Continent made a lot of money.

In the history of Haoran World, there are very few immortal mansions that can have both the authentic ancestral court and the upper and lower sects.

Yu Xuan's Taofu Mountain happens to be one of them.

Lao Zhenren was nominally here to find Pei Qian. When he was in Jinjiazhou, he saw Pei Qian cleaning the battlefield. Lao Zhenren had a very good impression of the little girl. She was a responsible person who made money in a good way.

In addition, there are two reasons. I came to Luopo Mountain to meet the young man with a tiger head hat who was also a guest. As time went by, Yu Xuan and this man were the most proud in the world. They never had a serious chat. Fill. Then there is the old scholar who wants to meet Taoist Jingqing who calls himself the "Little Dragon King of Luo Luo Mountain". Previously in the outer galaxy, the old scholar briefly talked about some of the great achievements of the boy in green. This made Yu Xuan very interested. How bold. , Only then did he dare to call Zheng Juzhong his nephew in person.

Chen Lingjun was originally unwilling to follow the big white goose to greet Fu Lu Yuxuan. After all, this respected old man from the Middle Earth Divine Continent was on the first few pages of the "Collection of Passersby".

As a result, Master Lao asked Daoist fellow Jingqing by name to have a few drinks with him. This made the boy in Tsing Yi dumbfounded on the spot. He sat down and sat down with an upright posture. Yu Xuan occasionally took the initiative to strike up a conversation. When he replied, Chen Lingjun's eyes wandered. Never look into the eyes of an old man. If you can explain something clearly in two words, you will never say three words.

This made the old man inevitably murmur in his heart, could it be that my reputation in Luolu Mountain was not good?

It's impossible. I remember that when Pei Qian left the battlefield, he said a few sincere words, saying that his master had personally said to her, "The talisman is unparalleled, and the murderous immortal energy is mysterious." This evaluation is not low, right?

So much so that in recent years, the Shanshui Di newspapers of our three sects have begun to frequently borrow and copy this statement. It is said that the outside world also recognizes it. They think this statement is good and it is a perfect match for the old master.

Yu Xuan asked curiously: "Sect Master Cui, that sword boat?"

Cui Dongshan burped and said with a smile: "It's a gift reserved by some old bastard for my husband. Ha, I, a student, had my beard cut off. I'm worried about how to explain it to my husband without getting slapped."

It was indeed Xiuhu's sect congratulatory gift to his junior brother Chen Ping'an, who had already secretly separated this "Bingding" sword boat from the Dali army sequence.

What belongs to the gentleman belongs to the student. After all, Shangzong Luoposhan was not a kendo sect, so he was poached by Sect Master Cui.

The effect of the sword boat is completely different from that of the imitation white jade capital above Dadu, the companion capital. The latter specializes in killing great monks, but the former is the nightmare of the demon clan in the wilderness army on the battlefield in the past. As long as the sword boat determines the battlefield in advance Position, longitude and latitude coordinates, and a huge sword boat hovering outside the battlefield. With only one salvo from the air, it can carry out extremely precise targeted clearing of a certain place thousands of miles away. The dense flying swords fall on the earth like a heavy rain. , sweeping away a large area of ​​the battlefield within a radius of dozens of miles.

When thirty large Li sword boats were hovering outside the battlefield at the same time, the heavy rain was heavy, and hundreds of thousands of flying swords were fired at, covering almost a thousand miles of land.

Cui Dongshan asked: "When Old God Yu came to our home this time, did he first lend us money and then come to collect debts?"

Yu Xuan looked embarrassed and waved his hand, "Nothing."

Pei Qian's face was full of doubts, what kind of loan sharking? The old man is putting it on his master?

Chen Lingjun, who had always been sitting upright and being a mute, admired his foresight. Let's see, are these masters and seniors in front of "The Collection of Passersby" fierce?

This is the first time someone has come to the door in person to ask for money. This is a rare thing!

Fortunately, I didn't get carried away and get carried away just because I got lucky enough to get the old immortal Jinghaojing who was the Taibao of Qing Palace in Liuxia Continent.

Then he went back and added a few sentences on the booklet, circling all the five Middle-earth sects including Taofu Mountain, and making a detour with a comment in the narration.

Cui Dongshan looked furtively at the boy with the tiger head hat.

Bai Ye said calmly: "Repaying debts is a matter of course."

Obviously he doesn't want to be bullied by Cui Dongshan. Since Lord Chen Shan dared to borrow loan sharks from Yu Xuan and Taofushan, of course he had to pay back the money.

Jun Qian nodded and said: "Even the money you pick out from between your fingernails is still money. Bai Ye's fair words are still reasonable."

Yu Xuan looked increasingly embarrassed.

I bet you two are a good person and a bad person.

Previously in Tianwai, Zheng Juzhong, who claimed to have "just three hundred gold coins on hand", lent it to Chen Ping'an to temporarily improve the rank of his natal Feijianjing Zhongyue, but he could use a one-to-ten conversion method. , converted into three thousand grain rain coins to repay this debt, with an interest of three cents per year.

It was just that Chen Ping'an needed five hundred gold and copper coins at that time, so Yu Xuan took out three hundred coins. The two parties agreed that it would be barter, not converted into Guyu money, and the interest would be compounded. The same fee was charged three hundred dollars per year. Point interest. So Cui Dongshan said that this was loan sharking, and he was indeed not wronging the old man.

Just according to Chen Pingan's idea, Shanzhongquan Mansion has an inventory of 300 gold and copper coins, so he wants to be debt-free and live lightly. He must pay back this "favor debt" quickly, but he really doesn't trust Feijian to send the letter. After all, some mountain cultivators who were not afraid of breaking taboos liked to intercept flying swords. Chen Pingan planned to let Xie Gou take this huge sum of money and personally go to Taofu Mountain in Middle Earth to fill the golden peak. As for the 3,000 Grain Rain money that he owed Baidi City, it was not considered an urgent need. He only said that Han Qiaise took the initiative to buy books with Chen Pingan and the related income, I believe that this hole can be filled soon.

According to Zheng Juzhong's estimate at the time, if Chen Ping'an's natal Feijian wanted to take it to the next level and improve Feijianjing Zhongyue's rank, he would need approximately 1,500 gold and copper coins.

If Zheng Juzhong's calculation method is used, it would take 15,000 Guyu coins for Chen Ping'an to improve the quality of his natal flying sword.

It can be seen that the consumption of sword cultivation is indeed a mountain of gold and silver. No wonder they say that there are no rich sword cultivators in the world. They either owe money or are on the road to owing money.

Lu Zhi, who ate several Bai Yujing sword-washing talismans at once, was like this, and the same was true for Hao Su, the criminal officer who once wanted to be the lord of the green city.

Lao Zhenren is the founder of Taofu Mountain in China, and his monastery is located at Jinjin Peak.

The world-famous five sects on one mountain, one ancestral court, one upper sect and three lower sects, this scale is unique among several worlds, not to mention the Haoran world.

Taofu Mountain also has a superior blessed land and a Yunmeng Xiaodongtian. In addition, it also has two medium blessed lands, Laokeng and Bailian, which are full of wealth.

Except for the Jingwei Temple, abbot of "Songxue Taoist" Zhao Wenmin, Yu Xuan's disciple, which is a little poorer, the other four sect-headed immortal mansions are all rich and have deep family backgrounds.

So Jun Qian said that the money was a small amount of money that Yu Xuan dug out from under his fingernails, and she did not wrong the old man who "has practiced successfully throughout his life and never worried about the word money."

Damn it, these disciples of the Literary Saint lineage all sound like they are carved from the same mold.

Yu Xuan was outside the world at that time, and his "predecessor style" was slightly lacking, just because the old man really needed a large sum of gold and copper coins at that time, and the more the better. Due to the fact that in the past few hundred years of Yu Xuan, there were two great talismans that were carefully developed but never appeared in the world, both involving the "long river of time". Together with the talismans, not only the type of great talismans was competed, but also the number of great talismans was competed.

The reason why Yu Xuan was able to monopolize the two characters of Haoran's "Fulu" was not only the ability to draw many wonderful Yunzhuan alchemy scripts, but also the fact that he upheld a simple and crude four-character knowledge.

Win with quantity!

But later, the old scholar took a trip to the Milky Way, and not only offered Yu Xuan a bag of ten kilograms of Suishan soil, but he also seemed to be a guest and sat down in the galaxy to "discuss the Tao" for Yu Xuan as the host, helping to stabilize his realm.

So when he came to Luopo Mountain this time, Yu Xuan just wanted to say hello to Chen Ping'an in person. He didn't have to pay back the three hundred gold and copper coins he owed before in Luopo Mountain. He would also say a few words honestly. If he really wanted to After all, it was Yu Xuan who owed Wen Sheng a favor. Lao Xiu was your husband. If he didn't accept it, then he would be on the mountain of desolation. Yu Xuan had already thought about it. In addition to the previous three hundred gold and copper coins, There is no need to return it. Taofu Mountain Filling Gold Peak is willing to half give and half lend Luo Po Mountain a thousand gold and copper coins. As for the five hundred gold coins that are temporarily borrowed, not counting interest, you, Chen Ping'an, will wait until you have enough money before it is too late.

Oh, didn't you Zheng Juzhong start a conversation in Tianwai at that time?

Now it's your turn in Baidi City. Filling Jinfeng has already taken out a thousand gold and copper coins, and there are five hundred left. Mr. Zheng, won't you follow suit?

Most sects don't know the inside story, but Yu Xuan knows it very well. At least a thousand years ago, Baidi City began to secretly collect gold and copper coins.

Baidi City's registered and unnamed worshipers and guests, from the upper five realms to the earthly immortals, need to offer varying amounts of gold and fine copper coins to Baidi City every few years. In addition, Haoran Jiuzhou took the initiative to contact Shanze Yexiu of Baidi City. This group of monks are of good status and status. If they want to buy or borrow some unique secret Taoist books from Baidi City, they seem to need gold and copper coins. For a full thousand years, fragments of the golden bodies of the gods of mountains and rivers from various countries in the Nine Continents, and gold and fine copper coins made into coins, just like this, bags after bags, continued to flow into Baidi City.

In terms of the amount of gold and copper coins accumulated alone, Baidi City may be able to compete with the Liu family in Aai Aizhou. If Zheng Juzhong's own share is also included, especially his hidden income in the wild world, compared to the Liu family, Probably just a lot more!

On the other side of Niujiadu, Liu Chicheng, who was unable to argue, had an idea and found a legitimate reason that was not lame. He said that he was here to discuss matters with his nephew Gu Can. He wanted to finish his business first and then go to Luopo Mountain to bother Chen Shan. host.

Autumn Lake, Damu Temple.

There are still about two quarters of an hour before the scheduled meeting time.

Wearing a green shirt and carrying a night sword, they arrived at the mountain gate of Damuguan. Several Taoist officials, who were like golden boys and beautiful girls, were frightened and hurriedly asked the identity of the visitor.

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Chen Ping'an from Luolu Mountain."

Everyone looked at each other, as if there was no such a number one person on the invitation.

At this moment, Gong Hua, the master of the temple who also served as the Lake Lord, walked out of the Damu Temple. Hanging on her waist was a famous sword, Hengqiu, and a female crown that became a god in the form of a heroic spirit. She stood at the top of the steps and looked towards The man in green shirt at the foot of the mountain bowed his head and said respectfully: "The Lord of Qiu Qi Lake, the palace flower of 'Qing Ci', hereby welcome Chen Jianxian."

Chen Ping'an looked up at the crowned lady and bowed his hands in greeting. When he walked up the steps, Gong Hua had already walked down the steps quickly, then stopped and turned sideways, taking the initiative to give way to the legendary Lord of the Blessed Land. The two sides passed each other, and Gong Hua turned around to follow. However, the man in blue deliberately slowed down his pace. The female crown, who originally wanted to be one step behind to show her respect, instead stood side by side with Chen Pingan. She hesitated for a moment, She stopped being pretentious and walked with him to the gate of the Taoist temple. For a while, Gong Hua didn't know how to exchange polite greetings. Just now, the other party held hands by the lake and wrapped a fishing line around the neck of the girl in dragon robe, and smashed it casually. Fainting on the lake made her quite frightened. Although she had an estimate of Chen Jianxian during the Luohuayuan meeting last night and Gao Jun revealed the secret, she still seemed to have underestimated his level?

Chen Ping'an asked casually: "Which dynasty is the master of the palace from?"

Gong Hua smiled and said: "Why should Chen Jianxian ask questions knowingly? Zhu Lian and I are from the same dynasty, but we can't compare with this noble son who has been married for generations. My predecessor was just a rough man who was not good at martial arts. What happened during his lifetime is not worth mentioning. .”

If the identity of the other party had not been revealed, there would be no need for her to waste her words after asking questions knowingly.

Chen Pingan laughed it off. It's really my fault that I didn't read carefully, or that in Peixiang's booklet, the old cook put the palace flowers in the "Beauty of the Human World" instead of the "Landscapes and Spirits" chapter.

After entering the Damu Temple, in the white jade square outside the Patriarch's Hall, the Taoist temple has moved away the incense burners, leaving a large, refreshing open space with two rows of simple huanghuali official hat chairs, which seem to be typical of the Songlai Kingdom. If one traces the origins of Jingzuo work further, it might be the carpenter craftsmanship of Zhu Lian in the previous dynasty? It can be seen that every chair has been carefully thought out. The shape is the same, but the back of the chair has different carving patterns, such as curly grass, moire patterns, Ganoderma lucidum, flowers and birds. The lines are smooth and very lively. At first glance, they are made by famous artists. Pay close attention to the lines, it seems to have the meaning of a sword, maybe it is the handiwork of Gong Hua.

But there are two chairs in the square that are special. They look lonely, one in the south and one in the north, facing each other.

It can be seen that one is arranged for Master Chen Shan, and the other belongs to Gao Jun, the current leader of the Hushan Sect as the initiator of this meeting. I just don’t know where Zhong Qian is sitting.

Because it was still early before the meeting, only a few people were seated. Looking at the man in green shirt standing next to Gong Hua at the gate of the Taoist temple, they were all confused.

Chen Ping'an laughed at himself and said, "Palace Master Wu said it well, if you don't practice virtue, everyone in the boat will become an enemy."

Gong Hua pretended not to understand this sentence, pointed to the "south" chair against the main hall of the Taoist temple, and said with a smile: "There is still some time before the discussion. Chen Jianxian can sit here, or he can go to Luohua Courtyard first. After drinking tea, of course I would rather accompany Chen Jianxian to visit Damu Temple, it is a great honor."

Chen Ping'an walked towards the chair facing the main hall, stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the chair, and said with a smile: "I am a guest, so just sit here."

This move was obviously beyond Gong Hua's expectations, leaving her at a loss as to how to respond.

Last night, there were a total of seven people who were qualified to sit down for tea and discuss matters in Luohua Courtyard, including the main palace flower of Damu Temple.

There was actually a second meeting after that, but only four people were added. They were all distinguished guests who stayed directly at Damuguan. They were the current monarchs of the four kingdoms, Tang Tieyi, who usurped the throne of the Northern Jin Dynasty, and Southern Jin Dynasty, who inherited the throne through abdication. Wei Yan, the emperor of the Yuan Kingdom, Huang Mian, the young monarch of the Songlai Kingdom who had just succeeded to the throne a few years ago, and Tuoba Daze, the contemporary head of the Jinzhang Tuoba clan, the lord of the northern grasslands.

What interests me most about Luo Lo Shan and Chen Pingan is nothing more than three things: what is the background of Luo Lo Shan, what is Chen Pingan's realm, and what is his temperament.

In fact, when Wei Yan was still a prince, he had already dealt with Chen Pingan, but during the discussion, the Nanyuan Emperor just kept silent and never mentioned that he had drank with the young swordsman at the same table. Because Wei Yan does not have the qualifications to practice immortal magic, Wei Yan would feel extremely complicated when he occasionally saw the Supreme Emperor Wei Liang who seemed to be getting younger and younger over the years. Even if he is a six-level warrior, he is still the leader of a country. Jun, when Wei Yan saw his unpredictable father, he became more and more afraid. Unidentified people would probably mistake them for brothers if they saw the father and son.

Zhong Qian stepped on the lake, flicked the water like a dragonfly, and rushed all the way to the Damu Temple where the island in the middle of the lake was located.

Wei Liang had already picked up the unconscious girl in dragon robe. It seemed that he left Qiu Qi Lake in compliance with the law and withdrew from the discussion.

Chen Ping'an remembered something and said: "For the two positions vacated by Wei Liang and the others, please go to the temple master to discuss with Head Gao temporarily and replace them with two people to fill the vacancies."

Gonghua nodded, "This is the best."

Although it is not clear what happened on the shore of the lake just now, which led to a confusing conflict between Chen Pingan and Wei Liang, Gonghua does not think this is a bad thing. After all, everyone knows that the Wei family of Nanyuan Kingdom and Chen Pingan The relationship is unusual. Because of this relationship, Wei Yan was mute from the beginning to the end of the second meeting of the Luohuayuan involving the four monarchs last night. In fact, other than Wei Yan, everyone either gathered their voices in a line or expressed their thoughts, but there was no communication between them. Stop talking, they have completely cut off their relationship with Nanyuan Kingdom, and Wei Yan is indeed calm enough. After nearly an hour of discussion, there is no trace of anything on the face of His Majesty the Emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom. Strange.

Otherwise, Chen Ping'an is here today, and he actually has many allies on paper. Emperor Wei Yan, Supreme Emperor Wei Liang, the girl in dragon robe with the Taoist name "Jie Jiao", the former owner of the admiration building Zhou Shuzhen, the Lord of the Fox Kingdom Pei Xiang, Zhong Qian !

That's six.

What if we add a martial arts master in Nanyuan Kingdom, a Jiangshui Zhengshen, and two Qi practitioners who founded a sect and set up a dojo there?

You must know that the total number of people attending today's meeting is only thirty-two.

Gong Hua didn't hesitate at all. She resigned and went to Luo Huayuan to discuss the matter with Gao Jun. Since Chen Pingan is willing to take the initiative to weaken his own strength, regardless of whether he is arrogant or arrogant, this kind of trade-off is definitely not a bad thing.

Zhong Qian entered the Taoist temple and walked straight to Chen Ping'an. Zhong Qian looked around. He didn't bother to care about the opinions of the outside world. He spoke quickly without using Wu Fu's method of converging voices. He asked with confusion on his face: "Master Gao Are you out of your mind? Are you just arranging the seats like this? It’s not clear that there’s going to be a fight, and who stands at the end and who gets the last word?”

Gong Hua looked back when she heard this. Although Gao Jun had reminded them that Gong Hua knew that Zhong Qian, the best martial artist in the world, had most likely defected to Luo Luoshan, but she still endured it when she saw this scene with her own eyes. My heart sank.

Chen Ping'an had already walked around behind the chair, folded his hands, and lay there lazily. He raised his chin towards the chair to the north and explained with a smile: "I was originally going to sit there, but I chose to sit here on my own initiative. "

Zhong Qian nodded, "That makes sense, it scared me."

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "When the discussion starts later, don't speak. Just sit in a daze."

Zhong Qian still nodded, "I'm not stupid, I will definitely pretend to be impartial, so as not to avoid people who are not human beings inside and outside, and will always come here to visit in the future, and the feeling of being yelled at and beaten by mice crossing the street will be uncomfortable. Unless …”

Speaking of this, Zhong Qian grinned stupidly.

Chen Ping'an then continued: "Unless you have mastered peerless martial arts, the world's best and the world's second can be separated by a wide margin, at least I won't dare to poke your spine in person, gossip behind your back, and you have to weigh it carefully. Talking too much will lead to mistakes.”

Zhong Qian asked: "Is there such a boxing secret in our mountain?"

Chen Ping'an narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "You can ask my founding disciple. She had the same idea as you when she was a child. When she met anyone, she would ask if there was any kind person who could pass on to her a hundred years of skill. , or is there a secret recipe that will make her an invincible opponent in the world overnight?"

Zhong Qian laughed, learning martial arts and practicing boxing are all hard work, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world. After staying in Luopo Mountain for a long time, I also know that there are thousands of shortcuts in the vast world and the blessed land of my hometown, not to mention the Taoism of the Immortal Family. I only talk about the martial arts. There is no difference. You can only strengthen your body bit by bit. Two The only difference may be whether there is a master to guide and provide fists. As for the boxing rules and stance moves, there is a need to pay attention to them. However, as the old cook said well, if the heart energy is not there, the boxing intention will not be pure. The meaning is to call Zhong Qian a loser who is just waiting to die. It doesn't matter, as long as your old cook is good at cooking, I will show it to you.

Members of the council came here one after another.

One of them, an old woman who looked like an obscene god from the border of the Northern Jin Dynasty, was senile and hobbling habitually. She saw Zhong Qian and the swordsman in green shirt. The old woman had a reserved expression and a flattering smile. She took the initiative to say hello to Zhong Qian. Qian frowned slightly and didn't say anything. She just gathered her voice and explained some of the old woman's landscape rumors to her own mountain master Chen. Although she looked like a kind-hearted old woman, in fact she was very majestic on the top of her own mountain. On the surface, the etiquette of the Mountain God Mansion is violated in every aspect. It can only be said that the height of her golden painted statue is the tallest in the world. It is even more majestic than the Five Mountain Lords of other countries and several Jiangdu righteous gods. It occupies the highest place in the world. A gold mine has never been discovered, so it is a veritable "golden body", which cost countless gold. The old woman controlled it with extremely cruel methods and raised a large group of fierce ghosts to serve as servants in the mansion. Even Tang Tieyi Everyone has to respect her a bit. According to legend, in the early years, the city god of a nearby state brought a large group of city god officials, including the night wandering god, to her mountain god's mansion to investigate and punish crimes. As a result, a new city god was quickly replaced to fill the vacancy. , obviously there is no return. If it weren't for the old woman's poor reputation on the mountain and the considerable criticism within the Northern Jin Dynasty, Tang Tieyi would have long since crowned her as one of the Five Mountains Mountain Monarchs in his country.

The old woman walked to the outside of the Taoist temple. After exiting the gate, she used the wind to go to Yuhan Island and Luodai Island. She called an orthodox mountain god from Songlai Kingdom and a familiar ghost spirit practitioner respectively. The latter said: " "Tao Zhe", he had previously participated in the bamboo banquet banquet with the old woman where the dragon-robed girl "jiejiao". As for the mountain god of Songlai Country, Gao Jun returned to the Hushan sect this time and advised the young emperor to choose a crown prince for each of the five mountain kings of the country, and he took advantage of the opportunity and became the first crown prince in the history of the blessed land. The Mountain God, in a hurry, was inexplicably promoted to the first level of the Shanshui officialdom. However, this time the Qiu Qi Lake meeting was held, because all the minor Wuyue Mountain Lords from all over the world were excluded, so no one came to Qiu Qi Lake. Asking for trouble, he was allowed to attend the meeting as a non-voting delegate.

However, in addition to the two replacement members called by the old woman, there was also a female cultivator who Chen Pingan had only seen in "Beauty in the World", Sun Wanyan, whose Taoist name was "Spirit Talisman". She was wearing a singlet. She was wearing a long colored satin dress and a long armor on her little finger. She glanced at the square and walked directly to a chair carved with flowers and birds. She was not in a hurry to sit down. She lowered her head and bent over. She had a graceful figure. The woman's curves were revealed in an instant, and the men opposite her couldn't help but take a few more glances at her back. The silky silk dress seemed to have no appearance at all, but instead made her appear rounder.

She didn't realize it, she just kept that seductive posture, raised her fingers, and lightly traced the patterns of flowers and birds with her armor, just like the so-called finishing touch in a book of ghosts and ghosts. In an instant, a bird flew out of the board and chirped, It was crisp and sweet. She turned around and sat on the chair. The bird stopped on her chest. She reached out and gently stroked its feathers.

Chen Ping'an was still lying on the top of the chair, but smiled and reminded Zhong Qian, who was staring at him, "You are lucky that you are not a Qi practitioner, otherwise you would lose some of your mind just by looking at it. This is a taboo in Taoism."

Zhong Qian was doubtful, "So weird? What kind of magic is it?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Those who follow one rule when climbing mountains will do the opposite."

Her eyes wandered as she looked at the swordsman in green shirt, "Taoist friends are knowledgeable and dare to ask about the mountain gate and Taoist name."

The Sword Immortal lineage of the Hushan Sect? It seems that apart from this, there is no Qi practitioner in the world who dares to claim to be a land swordsman.

Chen Ping's arrangement turned a deaf ear.

This Sun Wanyan might be the first Talisman Qi Practitioner in the Blessed Land, but she currently lacks a copy of the "Xianjia Sutra".

Chen Pingan just carefully observed a middle-aged scribe who was sitting closer to him. He had a fine golden body but a low status. The reason why Chen Pingan was so interested was because the other person had a hidden identity that should not be underestimated.

There has been endless quarrels over the years about the first golden-bodied god in the world who opened his own eyes without being canonized by the imperial court. He is the native of Lotus Root Blessed Land. There is no conclusion. Anyway, the courts of various countries say that it is the god of mountains and rivers somewhere in their own country, or the god of a certain state. The Lord of the County and City was the first to appear, but even Gao Jun was not sure which deity of the Temple of Obscenity was the first to be sacrificed with incense and soaked in gold to reveal his spirit.

In fact, according to the records at Luolu Mountain, the first golden-bodied god outside the imperial court's orthodoxy was none other than Songlai Kingdom's golden-bodied water god, Song Jian.

In the Luohua Courtyard, Gong Hua asked tentatively in her heart: "Master Gao, why don't we discuss matters a quarter of an hour in advance?"

Gao Jun shook his head and said: "The time remains as usual, just let Master Chen, who took his seat early, wait."

Gao Jun was wearing an apricot Taoist robe and a snow-white lotus Taoist crown imitated by the Master himself.

Gong Hua smiled sweetly and said, "I finally see that the beauty trap doesn't work at all."

Gao Jun didn't answer.

If we really want to talk about a "honey trap", Luo Luoshan only needs to let the "old cook" named Zhu take action.

Probably because they saw the old woman going to the two islands to call for help, several "pure martial arts" veterans from the Hosta Island also came to Damuguan together.

Cheng Yuanshan, the arm saint who was transferred to the Hushan sect to serve as a secret enshrinement. I admire Zhou Shuzhen, the empress dowager of the Nanyuan Kingdom who is the owner of the building and has a good eye for beauty. Wu Que, the master of swordsmanship.

There are also two celebrities in the world who are nearly seventy years old. They are of the same generation as Cheng Yuanshan and Wu Que. They are now Sixth Level martial artists.

One of the old men, who was energetic and breathing long, was named Cao Ni. He was dressed in black and carried a sword. He was known as the "Sword Immortal" at the foot of the mountain, so the old man took a few more glances at the man in Qingshan standing next to Zhong Qian. swordsman.

Cao Ni is also one of the four great masters in the world as rated by Jingzhanglou. He has accumulated little experience and is a late bloomer. He was unknown in the world twenty years ago, but he is now the undisputed number one swordsman in the world. It is said that his swordsmanship is divine and his energy is strong. The sword is more than ten feet long, and with its three feet of green edge, it is enough to impeach ghosts and kill evil spirits just like a Qi practitioner.

When Cheng Yuanshan saw the swordsman in blue shirt with a jade hairpin on his head, his expression changed slightly but he did not speak. I have seen him twice, once in the early years in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom, and once in the Hushan Sect not long ago.

Zhou Shuzhen and Chen Ping'an wished each other a thousand blessings, smiling like flowers, "I've met Chen Jianxian."

Chen Pingan clasped his fists and returned the salute, "I've met Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Shuzhen covered her mouth and said with a smile: "It's all old history, now I'm just the janitor of that library."

They are not as good as Earth Immortal Gaojun and the host Gong Hua, but they are only in the middle five realms, so they are not yet aware of the incident on the shore.

Chen Ping'an smiled and nodded, "It's a good thing that you can concentrate on cultivating Taoism without having an official position."

Zhou Shuzhen smiled as usual, but she sighed quietly in her heart. If it weren't for her identity and camp, she really didn't want to be on the opposite side of Chen Jianxian.

Wu Que, who has white hair and beard, has a magic sword that is a treasure of the Immortal family hanging on his waist. Although he is a genuine and pure martial artist, it does not prevent the old man from spending a lot of money to buy a handy weapon.

The burly Wu Que stretched out his hand and pressed the handle of the knife, squinting at the "Chen Jianxian" who became famous in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom in the past. After many years, he finally saw the real person.

The old woman named Zhang Ji was as attentive as a Taoist official at Damuguan. She took the initiative to help all the worldly masters and fellow landscapers take their seats.

Those who don't know the old woman well may just think of her as an old village woman with shallow eyes who has never seen the world.

Wei Yan of the Nanyuan Kingdom was the first emperor to show up. When he arrived at the square, he did not speak to Zhou Shuzhen because the Queen Mother of the Nanyuan Kingdom had "passed away due to illness". The person who knew the identity of the owner of the building that Zhou Shuzhen admired at that time was already one of the few. number. Wei Yan did not reminisce with Chen Ping'an, he just sat down silently, appearing slightly single.

Later, Emperor Tang Tieyi of the Northern Jin Dynasty and Tuoba Daze appeared together. In fact, the two countries bordered on each other. Originally, the two sides were at loggerheads. However, when the weather changed, more gods and ghosts appeared in the world. Over the years, the two countries had a tacit understanding. He stood still and began to deal with internal affairs, consecrating the five mountains, consecrating the righteous gods of mountains and rivers, competing for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and vigorously cultivating, winning over and supporting Qi refiners. To a certain extent, it was also a kind of powerful world armament.

The "Master Refiner" hanging on Tang Tieyi's waist was used by Tang Tieyi to "defeat the city first" when he was in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom.

The knight-errant Feng Qingbai, who was the banished immortal, was the tenth person in the world at that time. He died in the hands of his brother Tang Tieyi. He was attacked by the latter in a sneak attack, chopped out with a knife, and his body was quartered on the spot.

But as the best person in the world, Ding Ying ended up dying at the hands of a banished immortal.

Tang Tieyi once received a punch from Chen Pingan.

But now that they were reunited again, Tang Tieyi ignored the past grudges, smiled all over his face, clasped his fists in the distance, and said loudly: "Chen Jianxian's style is still better than before."

Chen Pingan was still standing behind the chair, lying on his stomach, just smiling and nodding.

Cheng Yuanshan sat on his seat and couldn't help but glance at Tang Tieyi's sword. His eyelids trembled slightly. The old man felt regretful. In fact, this "refiner" who was regarded as a demon sword back then would die if he took the initiative to recognize its owner. It was in the hands of Cheng Yuanshan, but because this knife was too mysterious and had a fierce reputation, Cheng Yuanshan was cautious in his life and did not dare to mess with it, so he did it deliberately and let it pass into the hands of Tang Tieyi. He originally wanted to deceive his sworn enemy for many years. Tang Tieyi took the initiative, but he never thought that Tang Tieyi not only did not die suddenly like his predecessors, but also obtained this magical weapon, and his killing power increased with the tide. Later, this magical sword became a treasure of the "Immortal Family" alongside the silver lotus crown worn on Ding Ying's head, the blue dress in the capital of Nanyuan Kingdom, and the golden body of Arhat in Baihe Temple. At that time, except for Yu Zhenyi who was climbing the mountain alone to cultivate immortality, there were no qigong practitioners or gods. When the heaven and earth had strange phenomena one after another, Cheng Yuanshan felt so regretful that he wanted to slap himself in the face several times.

Except for those who "ascended" and left, the warriors who successfully climbed to the top of the city received a magic weapon or an opportunity from the Immortal Family.

For example, Yu Zhenyi got a golden and jade genealogy, Zhong Qiu got the true shape map of the Five Mountains, and Monk Yunni got a piece of white jade lotus root.

However, while Zhong Qiu was still serving as the Nanyuan Kingdom's national advisor, the Nanyuan Kingdom's spies were never able to find out any information about what Tang Tieyi had obtained.

An old man holding a whisk in his hand and full of Tao Qi walked into the square with light steps.

Then came a straw-shoe "child" with a hairpin on his head and wearing linen clothes, followed closely by a young man with a fengshen Yulang, and each took their seats.

With their arrival, the square where there were some whispers suddenly became silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Two more tigers used their magical power to shrink the earth's veins, appeared directly in their respective seats, and slowly took their seats.

The great five mountain kings in the world, Zheng Fengzhou from the middle mountain, Zhao Juran from the east mountain, Master Jade from the north mountain, Song Huaihuai from the west mountain, and Huaifu from the south mountain are all present.

Gao Jun also showed up, and beside her was the concubine Gong Hua, the young emperor of Songlai Kingdom Huang Mian.

As a result, the monarchs of the four countries also took their seats.

Peixiang, the leader of the Fox Kingdom, was the last to arrive, so her seat would be easy to find.

Including the only outsider, Luo Luoshan Chen Ping'an, a total of thirty-three people participated in today's Qiu Qi Lake meeting.

Gao Jun stood on the northernmost chair, and she said to the man in green shirt in the south, "Gao Jun of the Hushan School, it is better to obey your orders than to be respectful, and sit down here boldly."

Chen Ping'an stood up, walked around the chair, picked up his long gown, sat down gently, and said with a smile: "Easy to say."

There are two rows of seats, with the monarch of the Four Kingdoms on the left as the honour, and the King of the Five Mountains on the right as the honour.

Then on both sides were martial artist Zhong Qian, Zhou Shuzhen, Cheng Yuanshan, Cao Ni, Wu Que... and Damu Guangonghua, Pei Xiang, the leader of the Fox Kingdom, a Longmen realm Qi practitioner from Hushan School with the Taoist name "Lingfu", Sun Wanyan, who has an all-powerful appearance, the mountain god Zhang Ji, who is an old woman in the Northern Jin Dynasty, Song Jian, the potter and water god...

At this moment, at the gate of the Taoist temple, there was a young fairy boy standing there in a panic, at a loss, and he hesitated to speak.

Gong Hua frowned slightly and turned to look at Gao Jun. Gao Jun was also a little hesitant. Zhou Shuzhen lowered her gaze and held her breath in concentration.

Chen Ping'an turned to look at the door of the Taoist temple. He heard his voice before he saw him. Someone said in a deep voice: "Jiang Quan, the fallen scholar of Nanyuan Kingdom, wants to live or die with Chen Jianxian."

The originally solemn atmosphere in the square suddenly became an uproar.

On the other side of the door, a slender figure with a mask on his face appeared, with a sword on his waist and a piano bag on his back.

Isn't this person the famous swordsman Jiang Shenzi? How did he become a scholar of Nanyuan Kingdom?

Jiang Quan took off his mask and threw it on the ground. Everyone saw him gently take off the piano bag from his back and place it diagonally on the wall. Jiang Quan then took out an old money bag and two banknotes from his sleeves and placed them on the ground. On top of the piano bag.

Jiang Quan changed his title, "Mr. Chen, do you still remember me?"

The man in green shirt in front of him, who seemed to have shown no signs of slowing down his time as a monk in the mountains, once pretended to be a son of the Gu family to see him, and then sent Jiang Quan money to prepare for the next Spring Festival in the capital.

Chen Pingan stood up, nodded and said, "Of course I remember."

Jiang Quan was silent for a moment, "Then you must still remember Gu Ling."

Chen Pingan remained silent.

Jiang Quan said calmly: "An old grudge and personal feud will not delay you for too long."

Peixiang was confused. What was going on?

Is it possible that what Shanzhu Chen said before about being a villain was not a joke?

Zhong Qian rubbed her chin and fell into deep thought. She vaguely remembered the ambush and siege in the capital of Nanyuan State. It seemed that there was indeed a female violinist who was proficient in assassination who took the lead?

In the past year at Lotus Flower Blessed Land, Chen Ping'an thought of three options regarding Gu Ling, and finally chose the third one. Three years later, he would ask Zhong Qiu to tell Jiang Quan the whole truth.

But when Zhongqiu left the blessed land and came to Luolu Mountain, Chen Pingan asked and found out that it was Lao Guan who had obviously taken the initiative, because Zhongqiu had completely forgotten about it.

Jiang Quan took a deep breath and stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the knife, "Chen Jianxian, I understand the truth. The hatred in the world, the light of the sword, and the shadow of the sword are nothing more than self-conceit about life and death, nothing more."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "This is the truth."

Zhou Shuzhen spoke slowly: "After Jiang Quan's death, Zhou Shuzhen, the respected building, can be testified by everyone present. Even if a life and death declaration is made, I dare to ask Master Chen Shan."

Cao Ni's eyes shone brightly, "Martial man Cao Ni, I am willing to confront Chen Jianxian with swords. I will have no selfless hatred and no public anger. I will not hesitate to die. I just want to learn what the so-called sword immortal is!"

Chen Ping'an smiled and said: "Don't worry, let's wait until Jiang Quan unsheathes his sword. After this competition, everyone here who is willing to get up and spar with each other can come together."
