Sword of Coming

Chen Pingan walked on the stone bridge with his eyes closed, his figure swaying slightly, water flowing under the bridge, his sleeves moving in the clouds, full of fairy spirit.

Wei Xian deeply agreed with Pei Qian's comments and praised: "Dragon and tiger stride, Yue Zhi Yuan Ting..."

Wei Xian closed his mouth just halfway through giving advice.

Lu Baixiang smiled and said: "There are unpredictable circumstances, some minor accidents, nothing serious."

It turns out that the stone arch bridge has stairs. For some reason, Chen Ping'an forgot about this and stepped on it, causing the person and the bamboo box to fall to the ground.

Pei Qian slapped him on the forehead, dear father, why are you so ungrateful?

Sui turned his head to the right, with a smile on his lips.

Chen Pingan jumped up, opened his eyes, patted his sleeves, and strode forward as if no one was around.

There was a flash of golden light on the golden wine of the robe, and the pearl held by the golden dragon contained spiritual energy, which became more and more condensed.

If it weren't for this relic of the overseas immortal's destiny, Chen Ping'an would not be as simple as falling over right now. First, his body is like "switching on and off to face the enemy", allowing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to pour into his acupoints like sea water, which will cause great suffering. Want to eat. Second, it is very possible to absorb the aura of heaven and earth from Qingjing Mountain like a whale. When the time comes, it will definitely cause some strange phenomena, branches will arise, and there may be another turmoil.

The golden robe is a lake, which plays the role of water storage.

But after all, it is urgent to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. Refining the five elements, truly building a complete bridge of immortality, and opening up five similar lakes in one's own Qi Palace.

The current bridge of immortality is unfinished and wonderful.

Chen Ping'an felt inexplicably that it was not until this moment that he was truly accepted by this world? Weird.

The four people in the painting had poisonous eyes, and they thought it was a bit funny at first. After all, in their impression, Chen Ping'an was always upright and well-behaved. It was rare to see such an embarrassing scene. After a brief inspection, they each noticed the clues, but no one told them.

Although there were clouds and mist at the top of the 3,000-step alchemy staircase in the Qinghu Palace, Jiang Shangzhen and Lu Yong, standing side by side, were both great monks. Naturally, they could see more than the four pure martial artists.

Lu Yong said in amazement: "What a Longgun robe. It's really unfathomable. Maybe it's the appearance of the legendary 'Little Blessed Land'. A little immortal master wearing this robe is probably better than wearing the highest-grade military armor." Pills, but also magic weapons and flying swords."

Lu Yong mistakenly believed that Chen Ping'an was a military monk.

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and said, "Palace Master Lu has good taste."

Lu Yong said in fear: "Senior, you are so complimentary."

Jiang Shangzhen turned his head and said, "If I remember correctly, you are older than me. Why do you call me senior?"

Lu Yong was speechless.

As the Supreme Emperor of the entire Cloud Cave Blessed Land, the head of the Jiang family has truly an emperor's temperament, which is hard to fathom, and he is like a tiger accompanying him.

Jiang Shangzhen smiled again and said: "At this moment, if you say that those who are successful in the path of cultivation come first, you will be very smart."

Lu Yong didn't know what kind of medicine Jiang Shangzhen was selling in his gourd, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Senior, I think Lu Yong's qualifications are dull, otherwise he wouldn't be able to only associate with cinnabar plants and trees in this life."

Jiang Shangzhen asked: "In the past two hundred years, I have had to take care of the affairs of the blessed land with my own hands. I have been so busy that I have not gone out much. It is worse than being blind. Palace Master Lu is sitting at the ferry of the Immortal Family at Tianque Peak. Can you please I heard that outside of Tongye Continent, especially in the past hundred years, who are the most famous young swordsmen in the world?"

Lu Yong thought for a while and said tentatively: "The one from the Great Wall of Sword Qi?"

Jiang Shangzhen laughed angrily: "Lu Yong, do you really think I'm stupid? Have I never heard of him?!"

Lu Yong was uneasy and quickly made up for it. He counted with his fingers which famous swordsmen in other continents were famous in the world. He told Jiang Shangzhen a long list of famous swordsmen in the Five Realms who were famous in the past hundred years. The key is age. They are not too big, there are eight people. There are four in the Middle Earth Divine Continent, three in Beiju Luzhou, and one in the small Aquarius Continent. The Sword Immortal Wei who just entered the Jade Pu Realm a few years ago. Jin, compared to the previous seven, the Wei and Jin Dynasties in Fengxue Temple Immortal Terrace are not high for the time being, but their future achievements are extremely clear, so even Tongyezhou has heard about it, and even Nascent Souls like Lu Yong of Qinghu Palace The old monk, because of his relationship with the Wei and Jin Dynasties, was able to hear about the Fengxue Temple, one of the ancestral halls of the Aquarius Continent military family, for the first time.

Hearing the names and general deeds one by one, Jiang Shangzhen kept shaking his head and just said it was wrong, it was too far off.

Lu Yong had no idea.

Sword cultivators are rare among Qi practitioners, and sword immortals are even rarer. The only sword cultivators in the world who can ignore the gap of a large threshold with the Nascent Soul realm and kill the Jade Pu realm.

Regarding the "young" swordsman who has shown his talents in the past hundred years, Lu Yongzhen, who is devoted to alchemy, has only heard so much.

Jiang Shangzhen no longer embarrasses Lu Yong, and he feels quite helpless in his heart. He spent a period of time in the Ouhua Blessed Land. In the previous two weeks, he went to the Yunku Blessed Land and put down a great chaos that was rare in a thousand years. He suffered a lot. The injury was not serious, and after a period of self-cultivation, he really had no time to care about the general situation of the world. For almost two hundred years, ordinary people at the foot of the mountain have died many times, but for people like Jiang Shangzhen who are cultivators on the top of the mountain, especially those who still have the hope of a hundred-foot pole. Taking a step further, in fact, I don't have a deep feeling about the passage of time. If I can take one step and stand firm, I can add hundreds or even thousands of years to my life.

The disputes and grievances in the world at the foot of the mountain are really not worth mentioning. In the eternal life, the Tao is not the Tao.

Jiang Shangzhen's eyes were slightly lowered. The Qinghu Palace behind him was said to enshrine all the Taoist gods, and the 3,000-level staircase in front of him meant "Three Thousand Avenues".

It sounds like there are quite a lot of roads, but a few people have reached the real highest point.

The avenue does not mean how wide the road is. The further you go up, the narrower the road is, and it may even be a single-plank bridge.

It's just that Jiang Shangzhen has self-awareness. No matter how high he is, it will not be like a single-plank bridge. He will not need to fight with those in the Ascension Realm in front of him, and there will be no need for future generations to squeeze in. Only by getting rid of him can we move forward.

As for that sea sword cultivator, he probably has to return to the Jade Gui Sect and seek advice from the old sect leader. Not to mention his other abilities, he is better informed than anyone else about gossip. The old sect leader has the habit of asking the new female disciples what color bellyband they are wearing. When we quarrel, we have to stick to the wall and eavesdrop. It's really... the best. There are a few mountaintop monks in the Immortal Realm who hide in their mansions and watch the fairies of various sects every day. Through the magical powers of the flowers, water and moon in the mirrors of their respective mountain gates, they flaunt their flowers and poses, showing off their so-called "talent", and there will be an old man. Anonymous sending large sums of Xiaoshu money to those sects, or even sneaking out of the sect to personally give them opportunities and magic weapons?

The Jade Gui Sect relies on the commission from Yunku Blessed Land every year to become extremely rich. Old man, as the head of a sect, how dare you have the nerve to tell me that Jiang Shangzhen is so panicked because he has no money in his pocket?

He also told me with a proud face that he had found a fellow man, an old gang leader from the Aquarius Continent called the Invincible Divine Fist Gang? Want to find an opportunity to pay a visit? I am also very sorry that Fairy Su Jia from Zhengyang Mountain died young?

Jiang Shangzhen sometimes really couldn't figure out how the old sect master achieved the immortal state.

The old sect leader who almost never talked about the Dao with him, Jiang Shangzhen, after he stripped off his status as the relegated immortal Zhou Fei and returned to the sect, the old man actually talked about it for a long time, saying that women in the world should not be treated like this. The woman in the palace is so pitiful. After Jiang Shangzhen was trained for a long time, the old guy asked him to go to the West Sea to intercept the big demon. He didn't even give him a pretending sect weapon. He must have been really angry.

On the contrary, Ya'er, who was taken out of the blessed land by Jiang Shangzhen, was rewarded with a magic weapon that the old man had secretly kept as soon as he arrived at the sect, of course under the guise of Jiang Shangzhen.

A group of six people were walking on the three thousand steps of Qinghu Palace. Chen Pingan was a little surprised that he didn't meet anyone along the way.

Looking up, the clouds and fog obscured my view, and I couldn't see the Green Tiger Palace.

Pei Qian tugged on Chen Pingan's sleeve and said softly: "There are two people standing up there, they seem to be waiting for us."

Chen Pingan's heart sank.

Could it be that there is someone in the Daquan Dynasty who still refuses to stop?

At this moment, as if they realized that they had been discovered, the two people walked down the steps and slowly walked out of the sea of ​​clouds.

A young man with a beautiful tree facing the wind, and an old immortal with immortal demeanor, but the old man was obviously a step slower, like a follower.

Chen Ping'an's steps were still neither hasty nor slow, and even the cyan sword-suppressing talisman in his sleeve was twisted between his fingers.

Looking from a distance, the two people above seemed to be walking slowly, but in fact they were extremely fast. In an instant, they were standing seven or eight steps away from Chen Pingan and his group.

Pei Qian felt that the young man looked familiar and hid behind Chen Pingan.

Jiang Shangzhen got straight to the point: "Chen Ping'an, we say goodbye to each other in Lotus Flower Blessed Land, and we meet again. It seems that we have a good fate."

Chen Pingan asked: "Zhou Fei of Chunchao Palace? Jiang Shangzhen of Jade Guizong?"

Jiang Shangzhen said with a smile: "Yes."

The great monk standing on the top of Tongye Island turned to Lu Yong and said with a smile: "This is truly a good vision."

Lu Yong was speechless.

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to come to the door so soon."

Jiang Shangzhen suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Chen Ping'an, I don't care about your grudges with Zhou Shi and Ya'er. Whether you believe it or not, when I was on the top of the city of Ouhua Blessed Land, I thought about leaving Ouhua. After I found you in the blessed land, I asked you to be an offering to my Jiang family. As long as you have the ability, you can seize the many opportunities in the blessed land of Yunku. I, Jiang Shang, am really happy to see them come to fruition. But later on, you insisted on killing Lu Fang and Zhou. Shi, I did have murderous intentions and wanted to return to Tongyezhou to do something. I just asked the Yin Yang family monks for help, but I still couldn't find you. Then I had something to do, so I was delayed."

Chen Ping'an sighed, "Didn't you find me after all?"

Jiang Shangzhen was slightly surprised.

How long has it been since I left Ouhua Blessed Land? Why do I feel like there are two Chen Ping'an?

It’s not about practice, but about the state of mind.

Don't underestimate the martial artist who is the first person to reach the top of Ouhua Blessed Land.

The level of martial arts is not high, but it is burdened by a certain Taoist's "big road".

Everything Ding Ying did was just "leaving the pick" in another sense.

Didn't "Zhou Fei" and Lu Fang fail to become the best in the world? One of the reasons is that his ambition is not to hone his skills in martial arts, but to defeat the demons in his heart. In fact, he still "cannot get what he wants".

As for the four people behind Chen Ping'an, they should be those historical figures in the legend of Blessed Land. The woman with the sword should be the woman on the right side of the sword fairy Sui Sui who Lu Fang often mentioned. The identities of the other three can be roughly guessed, but they cannot be identified for the time being. The tall man with the sword is the legendary martial arts madman Zhu Lian who was unmatched in his youth? A strong and short man, is he Lu Baixiang, the founder of the Demon Cult? That rickety old man with a smile on his face, is he Wei Xian, the founding emperor of Nanyuan Kingdom?

Jiang Shangzhen was a little surprised and envious that Chen Pingan could have these four followers, but he was not too jealous.

A pure martial artist needs the most time to master the realm, be down-to-earth, and drop water through stone. Compared with a qi warrior, he does not pay too much attention to talent and good luck.

Lu Yong complained endlessly in his heart.

Judging from Jiang Shangzhen's tone, he really is a bitter enemy who has formed a great feud. The little immortal master seems not to have a high level of cultivation, so it must be that his background is too strong, so that even if the head of the Jiang family shows up at this moment, he doesn't dare to kill him casually? Could it be that he is the direct descendant of that old pervert from Tongye Sect?

Jiang Shangzhen smiled happily and said, "Chen Ping'an, I'm relieved that you didn't start fighting me as soon as we met. Let's chat while climbing?"

Chen Pingan said succinctly: "Okay."

In the end, Chen Pingan and Jiang Shangzhen walked side by side.

Lu Yong then followed, and Pei Qian quietly walked on the same level as the Nascent Soul Earth Immortal, just a few steps away, secretly looking at the old immortal on the mountain.

As soon as Lu Yong showed any sign of turning his head, the little Hei Tan girl immediately turned to look at the scenery in the distance, tapping the hiking stick on the steps in her hand.

Lu Yong was greatly surprised. The more he looked at this little girl, the more spiritual she felt.

Although the master of the Qinghu Palace has very little fighting ability, he can still tell whether a cultivating seedling is good or not, and how high it can reach based on his Nascent Soul cultivation level.

Jiang Shangzhen first asked the identities of the four subordinates, but Chen Pingan did not hide them. After Jiang Shangzhen learned the truth, no one guessed it correctly. He slapped his forehead and laughed at himself: "My eyesight is as good as Lu Yong's."

The atmosphere didn't seem solemn, like enemies and enemies being particularly jealous when they meet each other, like old friends meeting again, or chatting and laughing without grudges?

But only Jiang Shangzhen and Chen Pingan know the truth.

Jiang Shangzhen asked: "Did the trip to the north go smoothly?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "We bumped into each other and had quite a conflict with the two princes of the Daquan Dynasty."

"oh?"

Jiang Shangzhen turned around and asked: "Palace Master Lu, what is the name of Emperor Daquan?"

Lu Yong quickly replied: "Liu Zhen."

Jiang Shangzhen looked at Chen Pingan, "I brought this old man here and asked him to apologize to you? It's very quick to go to Mirage City. How long does it take? Maybe by the time you have a fast meal at Qinghu Palace, Liu Zhen will I'm standing in front of you. But the Daquan Dynasty is under the control of Dafu Academy. The master of the Academy has a very good background. He comes from a saint's mansion in the Middle-earth Divine Continent. He has an elder brother who is the chief priest of the Academy. Don't kill him when the time comes. Just Liu Zhen, otherwise I won’t be able to clean my butt. Of course it doesn’t matter if I give the emperor a good punch or something.”

Chen Ping'an said: "You really don't have to do this. Can you tell me the truth? Why are you looking for me this time? Stop me at Tianque Peak Ferry, and then arrest me to Yu Guizong?"

Jiang Shangzhen laughed heartily, wiped his mouth, and started to enjoy himself, "On the way here, I thought about doing this. It's been hard to find you, so if I say I don't have any resentment, I'm deceiving myself. In fact, Yu Gui The sect has disciples practicing in Mirage City, otherwise I really wouldn’t be able to wait and see in Qingyang Palace. To tell you straight, I stayed in Mirage City for a day and learned about what you did in detail. , I also went to see the new Minister of War named Yao once. I just took a look from a distance and asked the disciple from Mirage City to help take care of Yao from now on. Then I went straight to Qinghu Palace by myself, just to meet him. Your side."

Chen Pingan stopped.

Jiang Shangzhen still climbed up the steps and said calmly: "When I get to the top, I will clarify everything with you."

Chen Ping'an followed Jiang Shangzhen and walked into the sea of ​​clouds surrounding Tianque Peak. The journey was covered in white mist, but it suddenly dawned on them that they saw a majestic palace. It turned out that they had climbed to the top of Tianque Peak.

When everyone walked into the sea of ​​clouds earlier, Lu Yong thought about Zheng'erba having glanced at the girl a few times. He never thought about turning around, but still gave Pei Qian and turned around to hide.

Lu Yong was even more surprised.

This sea of ​​clouds flowing around the peak is not ordinary. It is the mountain-protecting formation of Qinghu Palace. If an ordinary person is caught in it, it will be worthy of the name like falling clouds and mist, and there will be nothing in sight.

Chen Ping'an stood still, straightened his clothes, and held up the white jade hairpin on his head.

Jiang Shangzhen still walked forward gracefully, walked out for a few steps, and saw Chen Ping'an still standing there. He turned around and found that the young man who beat Ding Ying to death had a very strange look on his face.

When Lu Yong, Pei Qian and Wei Xian all reached the top of the mountain, Chen Ping'an still stood there, motionless.

Pei Qian followed Chen Ping'an's line of sight and found that there were crowds of people in the palace, and they seemed to be curious about who could allow the palace owner and the big shot of the Jade Guizong to personally greet them.

The people watching over at Qinghu Palace were mostly young Qi practitioners, mostly teenagers and girls, and there were also many children about the same age as Pei Qian.

Pei Qian asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

After Chen Pingan came to his senses, he gently pressed Pei Qian's head with one hand and said with a smile: "In the earliest days, I was exactly like them, standing at the gate and looking at others."

Chen Pingan continued to move forward and followed Jiang Shangzhen directly to the Xianjia Ferry in the direction of Jiaolong Buyu Stone Wall.

Lu Yong glanced at the disciples over at the Qinghu Palace. They were all making people laugh. He waved his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "Go back and practice! What a shame!"

After passing the unpredictable stone wall with dragons looming in the clouds and mist, after walking for three or four miles, we arrived at Tianque Peak Ferry.

It was a huge ship hovering on the edge of the cliff. Countless blue birds were flying underneath the ship, as if they were holding up the floating ship with their wings.

Lu Yong felt complicated.

This ferry was supposed to leave for Aquarius Continent Old Dragon City yesterday, but was blocked by the Jiang family head. The method was very simple, throwing money at it.

Except for the Qinghu Palace who did not dare to collect money from Jiang Shangzhen, all the passengers on the ferry received an extra sum of summer money equivalent to the travel expenses. Lu Yong asked an elder to be a good fortune boy.

There are also some who are short-sighted, swearing and unwilling to accept money. They just want to ask for an explanation from Qinghu Palace. Qinghu Palace cannot afford to offend him, so Jiang Shangzhen got on the ferry and slapped the northern golden elixir monk from Tongyezhou away from him. The ferry from the sky entered a low mountain peak in Qingjing Mountain. When Qinghu Palace went to pull out the dying Jindan Earth Immortal from the mountain wall, it was terrible to see. But after knowing Jiang Shangzhen’s identity, the Jindan monk dragged his sick body. , forcefully gritted his teeth and climbed the mountain again, apologizing to the head of the Jiang family who hurt people as soon as he showed up without saying a word.

Lu Yong has a panoramic view from beginning to end.

Seeing the Xianjia ferry with birds circling around, Pei Qian was so excited that he wished he could immediately use some crazy sword skills. That would be a sword that would not fail.

It was also the first time for Wei Xian and the others to see this magical scene. Although their faces were indifferent, they were still filled with emotion in their hearts.

This is the vast world.

Jiang Shangzhen stood by the ferry and said with a smile: "I will only send it here."

Chen Pingan nodded.

Jiang Shangzhen hesitated for a moment, "Can I ask who you studied under?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Shangzhen still refused to give up, "I have no ill intentions."

Chen Pingan shook his head, "I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I don't have a master in the strict sense."

The person who taught him how to make porcelain was Old Yao, who was unwilling to accept him as his disciple. It was Ah Liang who taught him how to stop sword energy at eighteen times. The person who taught him boxing was an old man named Cui who was a martial artist in the Tenth Realm. Those who taught him knowledge were Mr. Qi and the old scholar Literary Sage. It was Li Xisheng who taught him how to draw talisman.

It was his parents who taught him to be kind to others.

Jiang Shangzhen said helplessly: "Okay, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. I'm looking for you this time because someone entrusted me to give you something. I've carefully put it in a bottle. You'd better put it in after you accept it. Don’t take it out again until you feel you are in a safe place.”

Chen Ping'an traveled twice and saw a lot. For example, outside the Flying Eagle Castle, he saw someone who had sent someone's head thousands of miles away.

But Jiang Shangzhen, who had an enemy with him, actually ran so far just to give him something, Chen Ping'an wouldn't believe it even to death.

Jiang Shangzhen looked at Chen Ping'an who didn't hide his wary look, stamped his feet, used his magical power to isolate a small world, and said with a wry smile: "Have you heard of the Fuqi Sect Rebellion?"

Chen Pingan nodded.

Jiang Shangzhen pointed at himself, "After the big monster was injured, it still managed to escape into the West Sea because of its rough skin and thick flesh. I happened to be one of the three people who went after the big monster, and the other two, Song Mao, the leader of the Taiping Mountain Sect, and the old bastard in charge of the genealogy of the Tongye Sect. The big demon was seriously injured and could not escape death. But the Tongye Sect and I were unwilling to kill him for fear of provoking the big demon. A jade and a stone will be destroyed together, and our own cultivation will be damaged, so we just want to slowly follow the big demon to kill it, and we can enjoy the scenery and chat along the way."

Chen Ping'an knew that the chase was definitely not as light and comfortable as Jiang Shangzhen said.

Jiang Shangzhen turned to look to the west and sighed: "Then the three of us met a sword cultivator. He was really like a bullfighting swordsman. He was born with a chivalrous heart and a good temper. He killed a big monster with one sword. , and he also likes to reason with us, and he doesn’t covet the body of a great demon..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Shangzhen slapped his forehead, "I really can't make it up anymore..."

Jiang Shangzhen's eyes suddenly became sharp and he stared at Chen Pingan, "The sword cultivator asked who knew you, Chen Pingan, so I told the truth. He didn't say anything more, he just left and came back, saying that the demon pill is back." Me. With just these words, Taipingshan and Tongye Sect had no objections and allowed me to dissect and take away the most precious demon elixir from a twelve-level demon. I knew exactly what that sword cultivator meant. , that’s why I came to you, just to put the demon pill into your hands.”

Chen Ping'an's face remained as usual, "I know that sword cultivator, his name is Zuo Zuo."

know?

that's all?

about?

What a strange, strange name.

Could it be that he is really a young swordsman who has only emerged in the past two hundred years?

Jiang Shangzhen wanted to jump and scold him. He stared into Chen Ping'an's eyes and held an exquisite porcelain bottle half an arm high in his hand. "Do you know the value of this demon pill? Do you know what kind of swordsman can make a sword?" Kill the big demon who reveals his true form?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and nodded again: "I don't know the value of the demon pill, but I know Zuo Zuo's swordsmanship. Zuo Zuo personally told me that his swordsmanship is lower than A Liang's, and his sword skill... is higher than A Liang's. I believe him."

Jiang Shangzhen's face was stiff, he tilted his head and rubbed his face with his hands.

Chen Pingan, Chen Pingan, can you stop using such an understatement and talk about a friend who claims to be "a better swordsman than A Liang"? !

Chen Pingan also noticed the clues and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my grudges with Hairpin Master Zhou Shi and Demon Cult Ya'er have nothing to do with you. Besides, even if I go to ask for help, he won't agree to it. I will use my sword against you Jiang Shangzhen."

The right-hand man who calls himself Senior Brother.

He only recognized his "little junior brother" after pinching his nose.

Don't worry!

It's not that Jiang Shangzhen doesn't believe Chen Ping'an's words, but does the swordsman named "Left and Left" need a reason to use his sword? I guess all it takes for him to be in a bad mood is to kill him on the mountain of Jade Guizong, right? You, Chen Pingan, go and ask how that old bastard of Tongye Sect feels now? After taking one sword, in order not to take the second sword, I even lost my old face!

Jiang Shangzhen made up his mind to stay away from Chen Ping'an in the future.

Handing over the bottle containing the demon pill, Chen Ping'an quickly put it into the square-cun object without saying a word.

Jiang Shangzhen said softly: "This bottle is also a good magic weapon. It should be regarded as an apology from my Jiang family. As for whether you and Zhou Shi can meet in the future, and what will happen if they do, we will talk about it later."

Pei Qian glanced at Chen Ping'an and the guy and stopped looking.

It was the first time for the mountain god to get married, and it was the second time to point to the ferry above the head. There are no more than three things.

Pei Qian could see the two of them and couldn't bear to look any further. Lu Yong and Wei Xian couldn't see it, so they stopped looking.

After a while, two figures reappeared around everyone.

Chen Pingan walked to the ferry first, and Pei Qian followed immediately, followed by the four others.

After Chen Pingan boarded the ferry, he turned around and clasped his fists at Jiang Shangzhen and said: "One yard for the other, thank you."

Jiang Shangzhen smiled and nodded. How many years has it been since he felt this kind of relief?

The steward of Qinghu Palace had already been waiting at the bow of the boat, carefully leading Chen Ping'an and the others onto the top floor of the ferry.

Jiang Shangzhen still looked at the ferry, speechless for a long time.

Lu Yong could only stay in a daze with the head of the Jiang family.

The ferry was just waiting for Chen Ping'an and his party, and soon slowly took off and headed north.

Jiang Shangzhen looked away and said softly: "A distinguished guest is here, and your Qinghu Palace is not going to give anything to Master Chen?"

Lu Yong's heart tightened and he said wisely: "Of course, if you want to give it away, you have to give it away. I just hope that senior can give me some advice on what should be given safely."

Jiang Shangzhen sneered: "What's so valuable to give? After all, you're a Nascent Soul. Do you still need me to teach you how to give gifts?"

Lu Yong gritted his teeth and said cautiously: "If Master Chen declines politely, what will Qinghu Palace do?"

Jiang Shangzhen turned his head with cold eyes, "I cry, get annoyed, and hang myself. Can I not accept it? It's not easy to deceive people into getting money into their own pockets, but it's even harder to give money away? Qinghu Palace can't do such a trivial thing, you're such a fool Palace Master, why don’t you die?”

Lu Yong was sweating profusely, "Senior taught me a lesson, I already know it."

Jiang Shangzhen snorted coldly, "No matter what you, Lu Yong, give me, give me a price later and repay the Qinghu Palace double."

Lu Yong just had a plan.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shangzhen narrowed his eyes and said gloomily: "Don't try to be clever with me on such a shabby thing. It's just how much it costs. You, Lu Yong, and Qinghu Palace are not qualified, so I, Jiang Shangzhen, owe me a favor."

Lu Yong nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

Jiang Shangzhen suddenly laughed at himself, patted Lu Yong on the shoulder, and said pleasantly: "I just wanted to understand something, so I plan to stay in Qinghu Palace for one more day. You choose a few disciples who like it, and I will personally teach them about the practice of cultivation." Things. If there is really a good Taoist embryo among them, I will give you a place in Qinghu Palace to go to Yunku Blessed Land. Well, don’t forget, no matter how good your qualifications are, please don’t interfere with my eyes. , when preaching, teaching, and solving doubts to others, you still need to pay attention to a pleasing sight."

Lu Yong was ecstatic in his heart, and finally bowed and thanked him from the bottom of his heart: "Senior, Lu Yong will bear in mind your great kindness!"

On the road of spiritual practice, blessings and misfortunes always depend on each other.

The disaster cannot be borne. Fu, I can't catch it.

It’s all your own practice.

For example, even if a mountaintop immortal like Jiang Shangzhen were replaced by the banished immortal Zhou Fei, if he met Ding Ying who had murderous intentions, he would still have no choice but to die in the Ouhua Blessed Land.

————

After boarding the top floor of the ferry, a group of six people each had a first-class cabin. Of course, Chen Pingan's room was even more exaggerated.

After Wei Xian and the other four took the jade token and key, they followed Chen Pingan tacitly.

After Pei Qian closed the door, he lost his hiking stick, visited several rooms, ran around, and finally went to the viewing balcony to watch the sea of ​​clouds. His dark face was full of happiness, and he stared blankly into the distance.

Wei Xian also went to the observation deck.

The three of them sat down, plus Chen Pingan.

Lu Baixiang asked with a smile: "My lord, who was that young immortal just now?"

Zhu Lian had already stood up again and poured a cup of tea for Chen Pingan. After Chen Pingan took the teacup, he said: "This is the head of the Jiang family of the Jade Guizong, Jiang Shangzhen. He seems to be a Jade Pu realm monk, and he controls a very high-quality building." The blessed land of Yun Cave is extremely vast and contains many treasures of heaven and earth."

Zhu Lian admired: "Not only does the young master have no white people in his dealings, he is clearly an immortal on the mountain who calls friends."

Sui glanced at Chen Ping'an, who looked calm on the right, and poured herself a cup of tea.

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "Not friends."

Lu Baixiang said with emotion: "Jade Pu Realm means that it has reached the upper five realms."

Chen Ping'an has already given them a general introduction to the divisions between pure martial artists and Qi practitioners.

The seventh realm of martial arts, the golden body realm, the eighth realm of distant travel, and the ninth realm of mountain tops are the end of martial arts in the eyes of secular martial artists, but there are actually ten realms in the world, but even so, Chen Pingan told them that the ten realms are still not the end of martial arts. .

There are five realms among Qi Practitioners: Cave Mansion Realm, Sea Viewing Realm, Dragon Gate Realm, Golden Core Realm, and Nascent Soul Realm.

The only five realms above are the Jade Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the Ascension Realm. The remaining two realms have been lost for a long time.

Over at the observation deck, Pei Qian saw the magnificent scenery of clouds and clouds, and began to feel a little bored again. He sighed, "Old Wei, can I tell you something from my heart?"

Wei Xian sighed and stood on the railing. The ferry was sailing above the sea of ​​clouds. It should be protected by the Immortal Family's formation, so that the ferry viewing platform could not be agitated by the strong wind in the sky, and only the comfortable breeze could blow on the face.

Pei Qian put his heels on his feet and said with a sad face, "My father still doesn't want to teach me the peerless swordsmanship."

Wei Xian said calmly: "Eat the food one bite at a time."

Pei Qian squatted on the ground, leaning against the railing, "I'm worried."

Wei Xian lowered his head and glanced at the skinny little girl, "It doesn't matter, I will still look like a bird tomorrow, just get used to it."

Pei Qian raised his head, his eyes filled with resentment, "Old Wei, can a person like you find a wife?"

Wei Xian thought for a while, "I can find him, but others help me find him, but the one I like the most cannot marry into my family."

Pei Qian asked: "Why? I dislike you for being ugly? Then you can't blame other girls."

The big one and the small one have almost the same ability to comfort people.

Wei Xian was lying on the railing, "She didn't look down on me, and she couldn't be seen anywhere. My family was poor at that time, and I only wanted to marry her when I made a lot of money in the future. Later, the world was in chaos, and she died. , I’m not dead.”

Pei Qian stood up and patted Wei Xian's arm, "Okay, it's all in the past. Think about it, how many years have passed and you still miss her, doesn't that mean she's still alive? That's right. Well, maybe if you married her back then, it would make you more and more annoyed, and you would definitely not be able to be an emperor anymore."

Wei Xian nodded, "That's the truth. At that time, no one around me could understand it. So many officials just read all their books."

Pei Qian smiled and asked: "Old Wei, how big an official do you think I can be?"

Wei Xian said: "A girl can't be an official. If you look like this, you will probably be an ugly girl when you grow up. Even if you enter the palace, you will never see the emperor in your life."

Pei Qian kicked Wei Xian in the leg and said angrily: "Old Wei, why are you an old gangster?!"

Wei Xian chuckled.

This Lotus Root Blessed Land is surrounded by thousands of enemies. Recently, he had a rare grudge in his heart, but it is gone.

In fact, we can't blame Chen Pingan for being disgusting. It's because he, Wei Xian, is a foul-mouthed person, so he insisted on asking Chen Pingan about the history of the later generations of Nanyuan Kingdom, especially the evaluation of Wei Xian by the history books.

After Chen Ping'an realized that something was wrong with the Nanyuan Kingdom, he read through many orthodox history books and official unofficial histories. Naturally, he read a lot about Wei Xian, the founding emperor of the country. Among them were various auspiciousness and legends about Wei Xian's birth. For example, Wei Xian's father had The next time I went to work in the fields, I saw my wife lying on her back on the road with a white dragon entrenched above her. Then she became pregnant with Wei Xian...

Wei Xian never spoke to Chen Pingan again after that chat.

Pei Qian, who was afraid of the world being in chaos, laughed so much that he rolled on the floor with his belly in his hands.

During this period of time, she often used this to disgust him. For example, when she was walking on the mountain road, she deliberately protruded her belly, then circled around Wei Xian, and said "ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch".

In the end, it took Chen Pingan's ears being pulled so hard and a solid chestnut meal that Pei Qian calmed down and came over to apologize to Wei Xian. When his back was turned to Chen Pingan, he was actually winking.

Wei Xian wouldn't be angry with this girl, but he still couldn't be happy.

Pei Qian looked up at Wei Xian's side face and suddenly said: "Old Wei, I'm sorry, I won't laugh at you anymore."

Wei Xian grinned, "What a thing. Actually, it's nothing. There are many other things that the historians of Nanyuan Kingdom don't have the guts to write about..."

Pei Qian whispered: "For example? Tell me, let's talk in a lower voice."

Wei Xian said softly: "There are many things. For example, at that time, I was nicknamed Shuba in the village. My family was poor, so I would steal chickens and dogs. Later, I also did many pickling jobs, such as trail cutting and grass banditry, and selling illegal salt. As for my mother, she can I've never been attacked by a white dragon, but I've seen her steal a man with my own eyes, but I didn't say anything. The man was a nice guy, and he was a better man than my father. Later, in order to save me, the man blocked the alley and gave me The gangster chopped his entire back to pieces and shouted at me to run. What could I do? Just run. Anyway, in the end, I couldn’t find his murderer.”

Pei Qian sighed, turned around and walked towards Chen Ping'an, suddenly ran away, and laughed loudly: "Wei Xian's mother..."

Chen Pingan turned to look at Pei Qian, who was looking happy and about to reveal someone's scars, and said angrily: "Shut up! Go back and apologize!"

Pei Qian was so scared that he fell silent, his eyes turned red, and he immediately ran back to the observation deck. Just as he was about to apologize to Wei Xian, Wei Xian smiled and patted her little head, "Okay, why are you crying? It will be a big deal next time. Instead, you treat me to some candies."

Pei Qian quickly agreed, but he was still timid and glanced at Chen Pingan in the room. Damn it, he was really angry.

She quickly hugged Wei Xian's thigh and choked with sobs: "My father is going to throw me off the boat later, you must catch me."

Wei Xian was helpless, turned to look at the other side of the room, and said with a smile, "It's really okay."

Chen Pingan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

He just stood up and said to Pei Qian: "Come here."

Taking Pei Qian to the study next door, Pei Qian hurriedly closed the door, then lowered his head, showing a pitiful look of admitting his mistakes and never fighting back, and never fighting back when beaten.

Chen Pingan said in a deep voice: "Is Old Wei your friend?!"

Pei Qian thought for a while and did not dare to lie. He answered honestly: "Half."

Pei Qian hurriedly added, "Half is already a lot. Xiaobai doesn't have half yet, but Lao Wei does."

Chen Pingan asked: "What do those two books say about friends?"

Pei Qian said without thinking: "It is beneficial to be honest, understanding, and well-informed friends. Advice should be given wisely. Don't stop when it doesn't work, and don't humiliate yourself. Do you have to examine yourself every day, but don't trust your friends when you make friends? A gentleman treats others with sincerity... "

Pei Qian poured beans into a bamboo tube and talked a lot.

Chen Pingan asked: "Then which sentence did you do?"

Pei Qian lowered his head and muttered in a low voice: "It's not what you said in the book."

Chen Pingan was so angry.

Pei Qian said softly: "I know I was wrong. In addition to not laughing at Old Wei, I should also treat Old Wei with sincerity, and I should also treat him with sincerity."

Chen Ping'an's expression improved slightly and he said with a dark face, "Take the book and go to the observation deck to read aloud."

Pei Qian asked: "I know how to memorize it, can I do it without taking the book?"

When he saw that Chen Ping'an was getting angry again, Pei Qian immediately turned around and ran away, saying that he wanted to get the book, otherwise he would not be sincere enough and would be ashamed of the sage who wrote the book.

Chen Pingan sighed.

I thought again of that little slug Gu Can from Mud Bottle Alley.

These are not guys who make people worry.

On the observation deck, Pei Qian held the book high in both hands and began to read loudly without turning the pages. While pretending to turn the pages, he turned his head with a proud face and smiled softly to Wei Xian: "Old Wei, my father thinks If I admit my mistake this time, I’m right.”

Wei Xian extended his thumb as a sign of praise.

Pei Qian shook his head.

As a result, someone hit me on the head with a chestnut.

Pei Qian didn't dare to turn his head, and cried: "I don't dare anymore, I was wrong, I really don't dare anymore..."

Zhu Lian snorted, put his hands behind his back and turned away, "Okay, the boy can be taught, and there is still hope."

Pei Qian suddenly turned his head and was about to fight this old bastard, but he happened to see Chen Pingan walking out of the study. He immediately suppressed his anger, turned around obediently, and continued to endorse.

In the end, Pei Qian stayed at the viewing platform to endorse, while Sui Youyou had already left, and Wei Xian and Zhu Lian also left respectively.

So only Lu Baixiang was left sitting at the table, sitting opposite Chen Ping'an.

Lu Baixiang asked with a smile: "Lord, don't you ask me the content of that sentence?"

Chen Pingan took off the sword-raising gourd, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Lu Baixiang, and said with a smile: "If you want to say it, say it. If you don't want to say it, what else can I do."

Zhu Lian once thought that the reason why Chen Ping'an looked at Lu Baixiang with admiration was because the latter was the first to say those words and was considered the first "traitor" to surrender.

On the contrary, Lu Baixiang has not been mentioned yet, and is the last of the four people in the picture scroll.

Lu Baixiang looked strange. After drinking a glass of wine, he said: "My words are actually the most meaningless compared to the three of them, 'Spending money is like running water, and you will not be happy'."

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "It is indeed that person's tone."

Lu Baixiang asked: "Can you stop calling me Lord in the future?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "That's not possible. It sounds very exciting."

Lu Baixiang never expected such an answer, and thought that Chen Pingan would most likely agree.

Chen Ping'an laughed and said, "No need to shout, it's just a joke."

Lu Baixiang stood up slowly, clasped his fists in salute, and said with a smile: "Chen Pingan treats me as a national scholar, and Lu Baixiang will repay me as a national scholar."

Chen Ping'an had no choice but to stand up and said, "For Zhu Lian, I'm still used to it, but for you, it's not so adaptable."

Lu Baixiang said goodbye with a smile and left.

Chen Pingan sat alone at the table. After a long time, he continued to read and said, "Go back to the house."

Pei Qian was waiting for these words, closed the book, ran back to the house happily, sat down on the stool, poured himself a cup of tea, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm so thirsty."

Chen Ping'an asked: "You really don't hate me?"

"ah?"

Pei Qian looked confused, and his expression was not fake, "Why?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said nothing.

Pei Qian said pitifully: "Can you not copy books today? I'm tired after climbing so many stairs."

Chen Pingan slapped it and put a talisman on Pei Qian's forehead, "This pagoda demon-suppressing talisman belongs to you."

Just as Pei Qian was about to cheer, Chen Ping'an had already said: "Go back to your room and copy the books."

Pei Qian thought about it and realized that he had made a lot of money. He put the package on his shoulder again, held the hiking pole, and went to copy books.

Chen Pingan walked to the viewing platform.

How many times has it been time to take the Xianjia Ferry?

————

Sui Youyou was resting in his room with his eyes closed. On the table was the Chixin Sword, which was getting sharper and sharper. After raising the sword for such a long time, Sui Youyou could clearly feel the sword intention moving in the scabbard.

Sword intention, not sword energy.

After the battle ended that night, she followed Chen Pingan and left the ruined temple.

The two had a conversation.

Some of Chen Pingan's words were very rude.

"I don't need you to pay back the two gold and copper coins now, but from now on, Wei Xian, Zhu Lian and Lu Baixiang, the three of them, have spent my gold and copper coins and still haven't paid them back, to be determined, but you must Repay it, but it doesn’t matter when. I just need to make my words clear first. It’s better to say ugly things first than if you fall out with me later.”

Some are very doubtful.

"Don't think that I am not qualified to talk to you about cultivation and swordsmanship. I have seen two swordsmen who are almost the strongest in the world in swordsmanship and swordsmanship. Although I have not been practicing swordsmanship for a long time, I already know swordsmanship and swordsmanship. Here Where is the highest point in the world? Just walk there step by step."

Some are quite mysterious.

"Cultivation matters, the most important thing is to touch the heart. The four of you were once the best people in the world in the Ouhua Blessed Land. You have your own path to walk, and you will be particularly determined. For example, you, Sui Zuoyou, are determined to The more lofty your ambitions are when it comes to swordsmanship and spirituality, the more desperate you are now. But believe me, there is no perfect way!"

Finally, Sui Youyou asked Chen Pingan why she was the only one who had to pay back the gold and copper coins.

The guy looked serious at the time and replied: "I have a girl I like. Next time I go to find her, I will look through my family assets. If I can't pay the bills, it's because of another woman. What should I do?" Explain to her?"

————

Sword Qi Great Wall, the battle has come to an end.

In the night, in this world, two moons hang in the sky.

On the horse walking path, next to the old and new thatched cottages, Ning Yao was sitting on the city wall facing the thatched cottage, with a skirt-pressing knife and a locust wood sword stacked on his knees, lost in thought.

The boss swordsman named Chen Qingdu came to Ning Yao and sat down cross-legged. "Since I have some free time for now, I have something to tell you."

Ning Yao turned his head in confusion.

The old man smiled and said: "I originally thought of giving it to you one day in the future."

The old man waved his hand and interrupted Ning Yao, "But this demon attack is extremely strange. I'm afraid that sending you away will be a disaster. It happened that Chen Ping'an was going to rebuild the Changsheng Bridge, so I asked him to carry the Changqi Sword to Tongli. Before Ye Zhou went to the Taoist temple to borrow the sword, I made it clear to him in private that carrying the Chang Qi Sword would bring a lot of benefits, but the disadvantages would be even greater. The one who has to bear the karma is the big dispute between Ning Yao and the Monster Clan. cause and effect."

Chen Qingdu smiled and said: "That kid... showed a very different look and expression for the first time. Even when he fought with Cao Ci and we watched him lose three games in a row, Chen Ping'an's eyes never changed. So bright. It’s so memorable.”

Chen Qingdu turned around and asked, "Girl Ning, why aren't you angry? Don't you blame me for unnecessary actions and putting him at risk?"

Ning Yao raised the corners of his mouth, "Angry? I'm not angry. I am Ning Yao! He is Chen Pingan!"

High-spirited.

It seems to be saying that she is not surprised at all if the guy I like, Ning Yao, is willing to do this!

Chen Qingdu jumped off the wall, walked towards the hut, and said: "If I have to take such a sword at night, I am asking for trouble."

Ning Yao held his chin in his hands and began to miss him.

She smiled proudly.

Ha, why do I have such good eyesight?

She suddenly frowned, remembering a conversation she had at the Mud Bottle Lane residence, "Huh? In the end, I was still short-sighted?!"

She stood up, put away the skirt-pressing knife she had lent him, and the locust wood sword she borrowed from him. Then she imitated that fool and started punching away, saying to herself: "I Ning Yao Yi With one hand, I can defeat five hundred great swordsmen Chen Ping'an!"

She stopped and turned around, looking at the wild world, with her arms folded across her chest and her expression high, "I'm just asking if you are afraid?!"

The boss swordsman Chen Qing was speechless and laughed. Well, if such a day comes, who in the world would dare not be afraid?

It was next to Tianque Peak Ferry.

Jiang Shangzhen finally asked Chen Pingan a small question.

"Why do you care about the opinions of the children of the Qinghu Palace? And you... want to leave a good impression on them? What are you trying to do? As for that?"

Of course Jiang Shangzhen had the ability to see through obstacles and knew that the golden wine in the robe and the sword-raising gourd were very good.

But the object that really made Jiang Shangzhen feel strange was the white jade hairpin that Chen Pingan pinned in his bun. It was made of ordinary material.

He paid a little attention and discovered that there were eight small seal characters engraved on the hosta.

The words that speak to a gentleman are as warm as jade.
