Sword comes

Chapter 421 Young Hero Meets Hero

It took only an hour to break through a sea of ​​clouds and land between the mist-shrouded peaks in the Jinxiulou boat that was transformed from the nuclear carving boat.

Ziyang Mansion has arrived.

Overlooking from a slightly higher place, the scale of this fairy family sect is no less than that of the imperial palace of the secular dynasty. In the middle area, there is a large magnificent building that glows purple and gold under the sun.

After Chen Ping'an and his party got off the boat, the tall female cultivator who claimed to be Wu Yi, the True Monarch of the Cave Spirit, put away the small boat carved into her sleeves. It was not taken back by the True Cave Spirit Monarch, but with a flick of his sleeve, it plunged into a gurgling river not far away, turning into bursts of dense spiritual energy and blending into the river.

A tall and thin old man immediately appeared on the other side of the river with interest, knelt down and kowtowed to the female cultivator, and shouted in his mouth: "Little God of Jixiang Temple, pay homage to the ancestor of Dongling, and hereby thank the ancestor for his great kindness and virtue." "

Zhu Lian slapped Pei Qian on the head, and said softly: "Your comrade has appeared again, don't talk about it."

Pei Qian rolled his eyes.

Wu Yi looked indifferent, "Go back to your Jixiang Temple if you have nothing to do."

The god quickly stood up and retreated, turned into a puff of green smoke mixed with a little golden light, swept into the river, and disappeared in a flash.

Wu Yi smiled and explained: "It's not good to go out, it's hard to be clean."

Chen Pingan nodded, expressing his understanding.

Wu Yi asked casually: "Mr. Chen, among the people who walked with you last time, such as my father's favorite little girl in red padded jacket, why didn't any of them disappear?"

Chen Ping smiled and said, "They are all studying at Da Sui."

Wu Yi seemed a little regretful.

My father once revealed that the tall young man named Yu Lu was the incognito prince of the subjugated Lu family.

With a strong dragon aura, it is simply the most delicious food in the world.

Back then, her father didn't know why she didn't say anything. She didn't dare to act rashly under his nose, and missed it. She just didn't know if she would have a chance to have a full meal in the future, and maybe she would be able to break through the damn golden core bottleneck.

In order to break through the realm and be able to enter the "end of the road" where the flood dragons are now, the Nascent Soul Realm, my younger brother did not hesitate to become a god of cold food river, while I diligently practiced Taoist sects. mad.

Is it true that in the next hundred or thousand years, you will still live in the shadow of your father, worrying at all times, fearing that your father will be hungry one day, or fight with others, or be seriously injured and need food supplements, so he will fill his stomach with their two children

Back then, I and my poor younger brother accompanied my father and met Cui Chan, the master of the Great Li Kingdom. That experience was not good. My father was beaten by Xiuhu for 300 years with ancient magical powers with an ancient inkstone. Afterwards, my father vented his anger on She and her younger brother beat them extremely miserable.But the result was not bad, her father finally left Huang Tinguo, she and her younger brother no longer had to worry about each other, after all, over thousands of years, countless descendants were eaten by this violent father.Moreover, Ziyang Mansion and Hanshi River have also become the lands recognized by the Dali court, and they are independent of Huang Tingguo.

Of course, Wu Yi is just a pseudonym. As the ancestor of Ziyang Mansion, she is actually a descendant of the ancient Shu. If it wasn't for the letter from her father, even Chen Pingan, who has a martial artist from afar, she would have The same is too lazy to answer, it's nothing more than a single-plank bridge and Yangguan Road, each going its own way, why is she so attentive, rushing to greet her in person, and she has to force herself to smile at a young man

Wu Yi led Chen Pingan and the others to walk slowly on the road by the river. It was extremely flat and paved with large chunks of blue stones, reflecting it clearly.

Pei Qian, who was holding a trekking pole, kept staring at the bluestone ground, which was as bright as a mirror, and looked at the black charcoal girl inside, grinning and enjoying himself.

Wu Yi hadn't chatted much with Chen Pingan on the boat before, so he took this opportunity to briefly introduce the origin and history of Ziyang Mansion to Chen Pingan.

Chen Ping's response could only be said to be barely rude. In this kind of matter, not to mention Liu Baqiao of Fengleiyuan, even Li Huai was better than him.

Probably because a water house was opened up and refined with a water mark, stepping on it, Chen Ping'an could feel the essence of water transportation hidden in the blue boulders under his feet.

Chen Ping looked around and knew it in his heart.

The genus of the dragon in the world must practice close to the water. Even the descendants of the dragon whose avenue seems to be closer to the mountain, as long as they have a golden core, they still need to leave the mountain obediently. Character.

Presumably, the entire generation of monks in the Ziyang Mansion couldn't figure out why the originator of the mountain chose this place to build a mansion to spread his branches and leaves.

Ziyang Mansion is one of the first-class fairy homes in Huang Tingguo, but it is not like ordinary fairy homes. It is built on the top of a mountain, but is placed on the bank of a beautiful river with a wide view. , is the upper reaches of the Baihu River, the third largest river in the Huangting Kingdom, and is regarded as the source of the mighty Baihu River, and the Baihu River is second only to the Hanshi River and the Yujiang River. Therefore, the orthodox river god of the Huangting Kingdom was awarded the imperial seal, and he was able to mold a golden body and build a temple. Help Huang Tingguo and Hong's emperors sit in the eight hundred miles of water transportation.

You must know that among the countries in the vast world, the distribution of the gods of mountains and rivers is the most important thing related to the mountains and rivers, and it can also determine whether an emperor will sit on the dragon chair. Because the number of places is limited, the gods of the five mountains are first-come, first-served , It is often left to the founding emperor to decide. Generally speaking, the emperors and monarchs of later generations will not be replaced easily, and the involvement is too extensive, which is extremely painful.All the river gods, river gods, and Hebo Hepo who belong to the righteous gods of Jianghe, like the mountain gods under the Five Mountains, the gods of the mountains, and the parents-in-law of the last land, are just as squandered by the emperors who have not been allowed to sit on the dragon chair. If you are willing to play tricks on this matter, no matter how villainous and powerful the court officials are, you will not dare to let His Majesty the Emperor mess around.

As long as the national treasury is abundant, it can be exchanged for enough immortal money, and with the permission of one of the 72 Confucian academies, a gentleman will appear in person, with the constitution of heaven in his mouth, to visit the mountains and rivers in person and "point out the country" for a country, then This imperial court can justifiably create one more orthodox god for its own country, which in turn feeds back the destiny of the country and stabilizes its destiny.

This is called the atmosphere of peace and prosperity, and it will definitely be congratulated by civil and military officials, and the whole country will celebrate together. The emperor will often be happy and amnesty the prison, because he is destined to be hailed as the master of ZTE and the wise king in the history books.

It's just that this kind of scenery at the foot of the mountain has always been ridiculed by the monks on the mountain as "adding a layer to the coffin of the common people, adding wood to the emperor's dragon chair", and sneered at it.

As for why the borders of various countries are often in a situation where there are many prostitution temples and repeated prohibitions, it is really that the imperial court is weak and unable to eradicate

In fact, to a large extent, many of the obscene temples defaulted by the imperial courts were not recognized by Confucian academies, and they could not invite a gentleman to open their mouths. Turning a blind eye, even some imperial courts, behind the academies' backs, secretly subsidize the endless stream of immortal money from the prostitution temples, and secretly encourage local literati and poets to take the lead in burning incense, so that the local people will follow suit and flock to follow.

Tiequan River also has an orthodox river god, who is the humble old man who came and went in a hurry.

For hundreds of years, this river god whose golden body is enshrined in Jixiang Temple has always been the puppet of Ziyang Mansion. Dao, Pindao will help you pick up your pockets", the Iron God of the River, sent river spirit monsters to die. Those poor people are almost stretching their necks to be hacked and killed by those young Qi practitioners. If you are lucky, you can escape. robbery.After coming and going, the spirits and monsters naturally bred by the Tiequan River are not enough to watch, so the river god has to pay for the essence of water transportation, and when the harvest is not good, he has to bring gifts to visit, begging Ziyang Mansion Immortal masters, pour some immortal money into the river to supplement the aura of water transport, accelerate the growth of water ghosts and spirit monsters, so as not to delay the experience of the inner disciples of Ziyang Mansion.

It sounds like a price drop, and it can almost be said to be dying, but in fact, I don't know how many Jianghe gods in Huang Tingguo are envious of it.

The reason is very simple, Tiequan River is just a river god, and its golden body is not inferior to Baihu River, the third largest river god in Huangting Kingdom.

What to rely on is naturally relying on the scraps that are picked out from the nails of the Ziyang Mansion every year, accumulated year after year, and with the help of incense from the Jixiang Temple where the golden body is located.

The monks in Ziyang Mansion never like outsiders to disturb their cultivation. Many dignitaries who come here for fame can only stop at Jixiang Temple, which is two hundred miles away from Ziyang Mansion.

After stopping, it is natural to burn incense and worship the gods. There are also some shady things that require the help of Tiequanhe God to communicate with Ziyang Mansion, because Ziyang Mansion has a way of making money. "Traveling", there will be a general price, but the monks of Ziyang Mansion have always set their sights on the top, ordinary secular dignitaries are rich, and these gods may not be willing to meet them, this requires Tie Quan He Jixiang, who is familiar with Ziyang Mansion Temple, to help matchmaking.

During this period, the Tiequan River God absolutely did not dare to profit from it, and would not earn a single copper coin, but every time the generals, officials and dignitaries outside gave money to worship and honor the gods of Ziyang Mansion, the latter came out of the mountain to settle the matter. After the completion, a sum of incense money that had nothing to do with Ziyang Mansion was naturally sent to Jixiang Temple.

It is close to Ziyang Mansion.

Outside the gate of the mansion is a white jade square.

The Ziyang Mansion was already full of people waiting for the ancestor's return. The Ziyang Mansion is divided into inner and outer sects, and the inner monks are the direct disciples of Wu Yi, the founder of the mountain, as well as the past masters of Ziyang Mansion and their disciples. Disciples, plus all the long-lived Longmen Realm elders, and the powerful monks in Guanhai Realm who are in charge of everything.The outer sect is relatively heterogeneous, in addition to ordinary qualified qi trainers, there are also Shan Zeyexiu who has taken refuge in Ziyang Mansion, pure martial arts, and servants and handymen who have served Ziyang Mansion for generations. There are far more Qi practitioners who devote themselves to cultivating the Tao.

Nearly a thousand people.

In the square, everyone stands according to their respective status, and there must be no mistakes in their positions.

Probably to prevent Chen Pingan from mistakenly thinking that he would give them another blow, Wu Yi explained with a smile: "I haven't shown up in Ziyang Mansion for more than a hundred years. In the early years, I claimed that I chose a blessed place to practice in seclusion. I'm really tired of those who avoid If you don’t have enough human contact, you simply hide and don’t see anyone.”

When Wu Yi walked from the Qingshi Road to the edge of Baiyu Square, everyone knelt and kowtowed in unison, shouting "Congratulations to the ancestor for leaving the customs".

It fell into Pei Qian's ears like thunder.

Such a battle, such a big show, made Pei Qian's eyes shine.

Wu Yi raised his hand.

Seeing that Pei Qian was amazed, the thousand or so people who were kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed, now stood up like eyes on their heads.

Wu Yi walked straight forward, and Chen Pingan had to deliberately lag behind by a figure, so as not to share the style of the ancestors of Ziyang Mansion. He never thought that Wu Yi would also stop and tell Chen Pingan with ripples in his heart, with a trace of sincerity in his words Smiling: "Mr. Chen, you don't have to be so polite. You are a rare guest in Ziyang Mansion. My small land is located in the countryside, far away from saints and sages. But there is still a way to treat guests. So Mr. Chen just walk side by side with me."

Wu Yi is arrogant by nature. He is Huang Tingguo's rebellious and unruly immortal. Originally, when he went to see Chen Ping'an, he just held his nose. Being domineering in front of her made Wu Yi feel a lot more comfortable, and that's why he spoke so heartily.

Chen Ping shook his head with a smile and said: "Wu Zhenjun returned to the Immortal Mansion for the first time in a hundred years. If it was normal, I would dare to walk side by side with Wu Zhenjun. Today is absolutely impossible. I hope Wu Zhenjun will go first, and we will follow closely."

Wu Yi smiled, stopped insisting, and went ahead alone.

He is a young man who knows how to measure.

But it's too rigid and pedantic, almost like a school teacher, not disgusting, but not pleasing to her.

As Wu Yi moved forward, the sea of ​​people in the square immediately forked a path.

Only five or six people in succession are qualified to come behind Wu Yi. The more respected their status in Ziyang Mansion, the higher their position. He is a Jindan Realm Immortal, and the two monks who are about the same stature as Pei Qian, Zhu Lian and Shi Rou are old Longmen Realm monks with a higher seniority than the master of the Ziyang Mansion. One is in charge of rewards and punishments, and the other is in charge of money, so Ziyang The mansion's mansion master has always been a fictitious figure with no real power, and is nothing more than a facade figure dealing with Huang Tingguo's court and other mountain cave mansions.

However, the masters of the Ziyang Mansion in the past have a total of seven people, only one of whom is a land fairy who has become a land god by himself, and the other six, like the current one, are all relying on the fairy money of the Ziyang Mansion, and the realm of real battles. Strength is far inferior to the Jindan Earth Immortal in Dazong, especially the Wild Cultivator Earth Immortal who has killed a bloody path.

The background of Ziyang Mansion, of course, is more than that. There are also several former masters, or disciples that Wu Yi took in in the early years. Washed away by time and flowing water, she can only rely on hiding in a few mansions full of spiritual energy in Ziyang Mansion, like a common man on a sick bed who hangs his life with ginseng, and cannot escape from the world.

Everyone in Ziyang Mansion is speculating about the identity of the young man carrying the bamboo box.

Could it be the disciple Dong Ling Patriarch has recruited outside? Will he be the next master of the mansion?

Wu Yi took Chen Pingan into the Ziyang Mansion, and went directly to the Ziqi Palace in the middle, and told the mansion master that he would hold a big banquet to welcome the distinguished guests.

After entering the Ziqi Palace, Wu Yi asked everyone to wait in Jianchi Hall first, and she said that she would personally arrange a place for Mr. Chen to stay.

VIP

The group looked at each other.

Could it be the direct disciple of a certain Nascent Soul Earth Immortal from Dali, or the descendant of a wealthy family like Yuan Cao from Dali?

Sure enough, Wu Yi personally settled Chen Pingan and the others down, and then went to Jianchi Hall where the big bosses of the Ziyang Mansion gathered. She sat on a dragon chair made of red sandalwood and began to ask everyone present to report matters, such as The income and expenditure of the immortal money in Ziyang Mansion in the past hundred years, the progress of some handsome disciples in the sect, and the conditions of some old people in the mansion, she basically listened to it and did not comment on it. Let go of the shopkeeper, let alone choose a puppet palace master while he is still alive.

In fact, everyone knew well that the ancestors didn't like to hear such trivial matters, and everyone's serious report was just a formality.

Wu Yi tried hard to hide his bored expression, with his body tilted, his chin resting on one hand, and nodding occasionally.

Generally speaking, Ziyang Mansion can be described by the four words "thriving day by day".

That's about it.

Wu Yi didn't bother to care about those who were not practicing.

The reason why Ziyang Mansion was built and became the originator of the mountain was her temporary idea back then, it was too boring.

Furthermore, many remnants of the Jiaolong genus like to open houses to show off, and to store treasures that have been searched around.

Huang Tingguo can be regarded as one of the old territories after the split of the ancient Shu Kingdom. In the past, it was inexplicably like the Shenshui Kingdom that collapsed overnight. It is also a geomantic treasure land that the dragons dream of, because of the strong water transport.Furthermore, the ancient sword celestials liked to come here to slay flood dragons. During the fights, many of them fell, so there are many magic weapons. Afterwards, the most important weapon of the country was passed down from one old dynasty to another emerging dynasty's emperor, but there are still many treasures left behind, which were collected by her father quietly.

She is the one who knows how rich her father's family is.

The magic weapon of the nuclear carved boat on her body was just a small gift from her father as a small gift for her to enter the cave.

However, the wealth of her father's collection can be said to be the most exaggerated among all the earth immortal monks in the north of Aquarius Island.

The Fu family in the old southern city of Longcheng may be slightly better, but that is the foundation accumulated by the entire Fu family for more than 2000 years, while her father relied on his own strength.

So Wu Yi hated, feared, and respected this father who never understood his inner thoughts. The hatred was on the surface, the fear was in his bones, and the respect was in the deepest part of his heart.Presumably the younger brother has a similar mentality.

Wu Yi raised his head, it turned out that someone had asked how Ziyang Mansion should treat that Mr. Chen.

Wu Yi thought for a while, "You don't need to meddle in this matter, I will tell you what to do."

Wu Yi's arrangement was very interesting. They put Chen Pingan and the others in a six-story building that was exactly the same as the Treasure Pavilion.

Every floor is filled with the hidden treasures of the True Lord of the Cave Spirit and the past monks of the Ziyang Mansion.

Before Wu Yi left, he only said that he hoped that the two uppermost floors would not be casually climbed, and that the other four floors below were free to wander around.

Since this building occupies a large area, apart from the first floor, there are houses, beds and study rooms on every floor above, and there is even a martial arts hall on the third floor, where three mechanism puppets with a height of one foot are placed, so The four of Chen Ping don't have to worry about having a dazzling array of natural materials and earthly treasures, and there is no place to rest.

Just on the first floor, Pei Qian wished he could grow a pair of eyes.

This trip to Ziyang Mansion opened Pei Qian's eyes and made him very excited.

In the past, I always felt that in addition to the treasure box presented by Yao Jinzhi, buying one or two treasure shelves would be the ultimate imagination of Pei Qian's little head. Now that I entered the building of Ziqi Palace, I realized the true The rich man can be so rich

Now there is no need for Chen Ping'an to remind, and Pei Qian will not touch those strange ancient treasures without authorization.

She planned not to sleep tonight, she must read all the hundreds of treasures on the fourth floor, otherwise she would regret it for the rest of her life.

While Pei Qian and Shi Rou, who were equally excited, "enjoyed the view" on the first floor, Chen Pingan and Zhu Lian stood on the fourth floor, overlooking half of Ziyang Mansion.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "I used to chat with people about what the mountain in my mind should look like in the future. Now it seems that I was still a poor man thinking about it at that time. Ziyang Mansion is a vivid example."

Chen Ping quickly added, "Actually, I was not poor at that time."

Zhu Lian asked: "Master, this Cave Spirit True Monarch doesn't seem to be an ordinary Golden Core Earth Immortal"

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "It's equivalent to half of Nascent Soul cultivator."

After all, they were eating and drinking on other people's hills, so Chen Pingan didn't elaborate on the mystery with Zhu Lian.

Zhu Lian knew it all.

Wu Yi was in the Ziyang Mansion, so he must have the Immortal Formation, which is equivalent to a small world, and can almost be regarded as the combat power of the Nascent Soul.

Zhu Lian joked: "If there is a mountain wilderness who can wipe out this building, wouldn't it be a fortune. I heard that there is a wilderness in the jade jade state in Aquarius Continent."

Chen Pingan took out a jug of wine from something close at hand, handed it to Zhu Lian, shook his head and said, "The existence of the Confucian Academy has a great deterrent effect on all the immortals, especially the monks of the upper five realms. It may not be possible to take care of everything, But once the Confucian academy takes action and targets someone, it means that the world is big and there is nowhere to hide, so it suppresses the conflicts of many big monks virtually."

Zhu Lian took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "Why is it that the mighty world doesn't restrict us pure warriors? It's because there are too few warriors in the eighth realm and nine realms. I heard that a warrior killed the emperor. Confucian academies don't necessarily They were chased by people."

Chen Pingan said softly: "This involves a lot of dust-covered ancient inside stories. Cui Dongshan is not willing to talk about these, and I am not very interested. In the past, when I traveled far away for the first time in my hometown in Longquan County, the kiln The superintendent made officials, and the newly established county magistrates were already the biggest officials. I always felt that I was too far away from the emperor. Later, a lady from the Dali Palace was the biological mother of Song Jixin , I sent someone to kill me. I have always kept this account in my heart. The last time I met Song Jixin, a neighbor of Niping Lane, at Shanya Academy, I also chatted with him. But I am not afraid of your jokes when I say it. Even if I look at it now Looking at Song Jixin, it is still unimaginable that he is a prince of Dali. Gao Xuan is better, after all, the first time we meet, he is dressed brightly, and there are retinues around him. guy."

Zhu Lian lifted the jug and lightly touched the Yangjian gourd in Chen Pingan's hand. Chen Pingan took off the Yangjian gourd and remained silent until he took his first sip of wine.

Zhu Lian said with emotion: "If one day Song Jixin became the Emperor of Dali, wouldn't it be even more unimaginable for the young master?"

Chen Pingan nodded and said, "Sure."

The two were silent for a moment.

Chen Pingan suddenly said: "Cui Dongshan once had a very interesting statement. He said that the saints of the three religions are trying to change the way to slow down the flow of the eternal river of time that is destined to be unstoppable."

Zhu Lian became interested and asked curiously, "Why slow down?"

Chen Ping leaned on the railing, patted the railing, "The top of Xianjia Mountain is a thing."

Zhu Lian was at a loss.

Chen Pingan continued: "The city in the world is one thing."

Chen Pingan said slowly: "War is another thing."

Chen Pingan finally said: "It seems that the knowledge of a hundred schools of thought that can make people immerse themselves in it seems to be the same."

Zhu Lian's head got dizzy when he heard it, "Cui Dongshan's words are amazing, and this old slave is even more confused."

Chen Pingan drank the wine and said with a smile, "I don't understand either."

Zhu Lian asked softly: "Then, does the young master want to understand these mysterious and mysterious ways?"

Chen Pingan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "If you can understand it, then you don't understand it."

Zhu Lian hummed, "Young master already knows enough, you really don't need to investigate everything, just want to trace the source."

Chen Pingan turned his head and said, "Zhu Lian, can you change your habit of sycophancy?"

Zhu Lian raised his arms, shook the jug in his hand, laughed and said, "Why should I change it, I can have wine to drink?"

Chen Ping smiled and said, "That's true."

Zhu Lian tentatively asked: "Before the young master said that he wanted to go to Beiju Luzhou to practice alone, I really can't take the old slave with me. I don't have a cook around me who cooks and cooks, and I don't have a follower who just flatters me. It's so boring."

Chen Pingan nodded and said: "You can stay in Luopo Mountain honestly. I still hope that you can improve your martial arts. Since the feeding method of the old man surnamed Cui is suitable for me, of course it is more suitable for you. In the future, if you can make it to the top of the mountain, then Pei Qian's first trip to the rivers and lakes, no matter how far he travels, or even going to other continents with Li Huai, as long as you secretly escort me, I can feel at ease."

Zhu Lian had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​persuading Chen Pingan to change his mind.

Chen Pingan asked, "Zhu Lian, can you tell me about your youth?"

For the first time, Zhu Lian was a little embarrassed, "Countless foolish accounts, countless romantic debts, talking about these, I'm afraid the young master will lose his interest in drinking."

Chen Pingan jumped onto the railing and sat down, "Tell me, actually, I have secretly read the Jiang Hu romance novels you gave Pei Qian several times, and I think they are all well written. But after all, they are the imagination of scholars in the study. The rivers and lakes in the book are not real enough, I believe it is not as interesting as your oral experience."

& nbs

p;Zhu Lian also jumped on the railing and sat down, grinning, "Okay, let the old slave talk, young master, you don't know how young and romantic the old slave was back then, how many fairies and heroines there were in the rivers and lakes , Admired so much that it was a life-and-death, and the infatuation would not change."

As a result, the more he heard it, Zhu Lian found that his young master's disgusting eyes became more and more obvious. Finally, Chen Ping patted Zhu Lian on the shoulder, jumped off the railing and left without saying anything.

This hurt Zhu Lian a little.

My young master is good at everything else, except when it comes to the love between men and women, he is really a gentleman, too out of touch

Zhu Lian probably didn't know. Chen Pingan, who walked into the building, thought in his heart, "You have Miss Ning, you have Miss Ning, if you dare to think wildly, you will be beaten to death by Miss Ning without a word. Don't think about it, it's not going to work, as long as you see Miss Ning, where can you hide from her, you will be seen through immediately, and you will be beaten to death, do you dare to fight back?"

An elegantly decorated two-story boat sails from the turbulent Baihu River to the gentle Tiequan River.

Standing at the bow of the boat was a beautiful woman in palace attire, beside her was a personal maid, and three men with very different ages and appearances.

An old man said with a wry smile: "Madam, our visit to Ziyang Mansion may not be pleasant."

The old man and the other two are the guests of this lady's house. They have known each other for a long time, and they have similar temperaments. The secret report, they hunted down the fox demon that has been a disaster for a hundred years in Centipede Ridge, is an example, and the Ziyang Mansion and Jixiang Temple are no different from the sweetness of businessmen, and the atmosphere is completely different.

There was a touch of sadness between the lady's brows and eyes, and there was only a sigh.

The young maidservant beside her has been with her for a hundred years. Although she is a water ghost and a ghost, she was blessed by incense and drowned in an early age.

The maid is regarded as the lady's own person, so on this occasion, she can still talk, and said softly: "The situation is forcing. Hanshijiang and Yujiang have already received the peace card issued by the Song family of Dali. We, Baihujiang, have been left out in the cold so far, it’s not a big deal, it’s nothing more than not dealing with the Dali court, it’s just that my wife’s trip to Beijing, listening to His Majesty’s words, Baihujiang may still have big troubles behind, we Don't even think about keeping yourself clean."

The old man was puzzled and said, "It's a big disaster."

The maidservant was also full of melancholy, and her words were a little low, "Your Majesty also hinted that the Yujiang Water God had already obtained a peace card, and he was still not satisfied, so he ran to Piyun Mountain in Lizhu Cave without shame." It seems that through a secret relationship, he was able to play tricks in front of Wei Bo, the righteous god of Beiyue. It is very likely that the Dali court will attack our Baihu River. We can only let the Dali barbarians do whatever they want."

The old man said helplessly: "That guy is really famous for his brazenness."

A tall man with his arms folded around his chest stood a little far away, looking at the Tiequan River. Although he successfully passed the peak of the fifth realm and became a martial artist of the sixth realm the year before last, the current mess of state affairs made him plan to become a warrior after the sixth realm. The passionate man who went to join the army around him was a little disheartened.

The horseshoes of the Dali Barbarian trampled on Huang Tinguo's territory recklessly, and never needed to communicate with His Majesty today.

What is even more unacceptable to men is that from the government to the public, from the civil and military officials to the people in the countryside, to the rivers, lakes and mountains, there are almost few people who are filled with righteous indignation. The Dali officials in Huangting's country, the seventh-rank officials of the Dali Song Clan, are even more powerful and effective than Huang Tingguo's second-rank central officials

And the one thing that really made the man finally give up going to the frontier army was a piece of news that spread from the capital of Huang Tingguo.

Back then, he and his friends chased and killed the fox spirit, but the latter set a trap on Centipede Ridge. However, the last big demon Xiong Gu who was supposed to show up to join forces with its mistress, for some reason, instead of showing up, turned to that fox. The head of a fox charmer who is good at the method of viciousness and double cultivation, will not save her.That's why they all worked together to successfully capture the vicious fox who proclaimed himself Mrs. Qingya, and made a great contribution to Huang Tinguo's court.

That fox spirit was bound and imprisoned by secret techniques, and lost most of her supernatural powers, and was imprisoned in the prison specially used by the imperial court to suppress Yamazawano Xiu and the ghosts.

At that time, the man and his friends had a good drink of happy wine in the mansion of Baihu River Water God.

But soon, gossip spread throughout the capital, that the fox spirit, who was supposed to be skinned and cramped, to serve as an example to others, was brought into the harem by His Majesty the Emperor, where she was hidden in a golden house.

The man was filled with resentment.

This time, I went to Jiangshen Mansion together with two monks and friends, and the Baihu River Goddess standing at the bow also told them the truth clearly.

The rumors are true.

When the country is in crisis, the king is very happy

When the Jiang God Empress came to Beijing to meet the emperor, that fox spirit was indeed standing beside the emperor, but her brows were lowered and her eyes were pleasing to the eye. Fortunately, the taboos set by the enshrined monks on it, the Emperor Hong was not so stupid Get rid of it all.

The scene at that time made the Jiang God Empress, who once had a dewy marriage with the ancestor emperor of the Hong family, frown a little. In the impression that the current emperor does not have a lustful reputation.

It's just that time has passed, and the other party is the lord of a country after all, so she can't say much.

Furthermore, as a Jiang Zhengshen, in the long years, he has been on the altar of the gods, and through the centuries-old incense, he has seen all kinds of living beings, and he has long been familiar with these secular absurdities.

Presumably the current emperor is under too much pressure. After all, although the Dali Song family has recognized Huang Tingguo's vassal status, God knows if a young royal family surnamed Song will suddenly appear one day and ask him to get out of the dragon chair

That being the case, the only way to relieve worries is probably the joy of bed.

The Goddess of Water actually knew the depressed mood of that warrior Sun Dengxian.

It's just that there are some things she can't say.

Because once it is said, the so-called acquaintance of gentlemen, the incense accumulated in the past, will disappear in smoke.

The trend of the times, Emperor Huang Tingguo and the Hong family did not switch to the Dali barbarians. Could it be that for the sake of the so-called face, he would go to war, hit the stone with an egg, and then annoy the Dali Song family, and be easily crushed by the Dali border iron cavalry without any suspense? At that time, the emperor will fall Not to mention being a prisoner, how many people in Huang Ting country will suffer from the fire of war? Hundreds of thousands or millions of people will be turned upside down.

The foundation of the life of those innocent people, how can there be too much attention, but to be able to live without worrying about food and clothing all year round. It is a rare and stable time to be able to add clothes when it is cold and to eat when you are hungry.

This time she insisted on visiting Ziyang Mansion, and even dragged the three of them along. Why doesn't the Water Goddess know that Sun Dengxian is unhappy?

But she had to come.

Three people were even needed to help guard the formation, lest the unpredictable ancestor of Ziyang Mansion simply detain her there.Having three more people is actually useless, but in the end it can make Ziyang Mansion a little bit more afraid.

This lady can only hope that this time will be successful and complete, and when she returns to her Water God Mansion, she will repay Sun Dengxian and the other three.

After entering the Tiequan River, he became more and more silent. When passing by the Jixiang River Temple, the old river god appeared by the river. As a subordinate, he bowed to the river god empress first, and only said words , but it was not very pleasant, and asked with a smile: "Mrs. Jiang Shen is a rare visitor. I don't know about Tiequanhe under her inspection this time. What advice can I give? If Madam still doesn't want to let our current Tiequanhe go The commander of the water army, his subordinates dare not say a word, but this commander is now a nominal monk of the Ziyang Immortal Mansion. Could it be that Madam is going upstream this time to go to the Ziyang Immortal Mansion to talk about the past? pile of grievances"

The ferry continued to move forward, but the Empress Jiang Shen didn't say a word.

Tiequan River God didn't take it seriously, turned his head to look at the ferry boat going on, waved his hands vigorously without forgetting to add fuel to the fire, and shouted loudly: "Tell Madam a great news, our cave in Ziyang Immortal Mansion The patriarch Ling Yuanjun is now in the mansion. Madam, as a Jiang Zhengshen, must open the door of the Ziyang Immortal Mansion to welcome Madam, and then have the honor to see Yuanjun's true face. Madam, go slowly , Turn back and return to the Baihu River, if you have time, you must come to the Jixiang Temple under your command."

Wait until the ferry goes away.

The river god spat hard at Tiequanhe, cursing, "What the hell, pretending to be noble, an unknown Yuanying from a foreign country, who was transformed into a white swan real body by throwing a cup into the water, is just a self-recommendation back then On the pillow mat, I slept with Emperor Huang Tingguo, relying on my kung fu on the bed, I was lucky enough to become a river god, and also worthy to negotiate business with our ancestor Yuanjun. In the past few hundred years, he has never paid half a snowflake to our Ziyang Immortal Mansion Qian, now I know it’s time to make amends, haha, but it’s a pity that our Ziyang Immortal Mansion is currently being run by the ancestor Yuan Jun himself, otherwise, you stinky bitch would be willing to climb onto the mansion master’s bed with all your flesh and blood. Maybe it made you happy and happy, and it’s cool and cool.”

The River God turned around and walked back to Jixiang Temple swaggeringly.

He suddenly swallowed his saliva secretly, and smiled mischievously. He didn't know how the woman felt and tasted after she took off the golden skin behind the dress and dress.

If Bai Hujiang was in trouble, maybe he would have a chance to taste it.

Ziyang Mansion, Jian Chi Hall.

Wu Yi had almost reached the limit of her patience, and was about to let the group of guys who were still talking about asking her for credit to back down.

Suddenly, an outer housekeeper stood behind the gate of Jianchi Hall, and said in a respectful voice: "My ancestor, the river god of Baihu River, came to the door with a heavy gift to ask for an audience. I hope the ancestor can show her face."

The corners of her mouth curled into an arc, with a half-smile, looked at the crowd, and asked, "As soon as I arrived, Auntie Baihu Jiang followed up. It was the guy from Jixiang Temple who tipped off that he wanted to die."

Everyone present knew that this was a sign that the ancestors were angry.

All of a sudden, all the high-ranking and powerful old gods in Ziyang Mansion were anxious.

Once the ancestors got angry, they shook the mountains again and again. Either the outsiders who didn't have eyesight suffered disasters, or a lot of their own family members who were not good at doing things lost their skins.

An old monk from Ziyang Mansion who had a good relationship with Tiequan River God quickly stepped forward and said a few good words for the river god whose life was hanging by a thread, "I would like to tell my ancestors that Jixiang Temple River God would never dare to This guy's morality is low, and he can't do anything. Only in the matter of his loyalty to our Ziyang Mansion, it can be said to be unambiguous. So I dare to guess, it must be the ancestor who drove the fairy boat this time and came back from a long journey to give to the Jiangshen. The girls raised their heads and stared wide-eyed, and saw the peerless demeanor of the ancestors, so they rushed over and begged for mercy with the ancestors."

She tapped the handle of the chair with one finger, "That theory makes sense."

Everyone was relieved immediately.

Even the old man of Ziyang Mansion who didn't get along well with the old monk couldn't help but praise him inwardly.

It's not that the old monk is righteous and is willing to say a few words of justice for an outsider of Ziyang Mansion, but he is in charge of the money exchange at the outer door of Ziyang Mansion.Every year, there are extra income from the well-behaved and sensible Iron Courage River God.

This kind of thing can be big or small.

Generally speaking, even if this kind of trivial matter is known to Dongling Zhenjun, an ancestor who is dedicated to cultivating the Dao, she may not be willing to move her eyelids and open her mouth to say something serious.

Maybe both the informer and the poor fellow exposed will be annoyed by her, and they will each be beaten with [-] sticks and thrown out of the gate of Ziyang Mansion. The reason is very simple, it will make her feel bad.

Although the old ancestor didn't like to meddle in the worldly affairs of Ziyang Mansion, every time someone provoked her to get angry, he would dig three feet into the ground, pull out the radish and pull out the mud. It's the disapproval of the six relatives.

In history, several meritorious priests in the Longmen Realm said that they were conscientious and conscientious.There are also a few direct disciples of the ancestors, all of whom are of great aptitude for Jindan Earth Immortals without exception, but after the incident, they were all taken away by the ancestors themselves, and there is no news of them.

Wu Yi still didn't give his own opinion, and asked casually: "Do you think you should see her?"

Everyone has different opinions. Some say that Baihu Jiangshen is so bold that he never pays tribute to our Ziyang Mansion because of his relationship with the Hong family. Take it down, imprison it under the water prison of Ziyang Mansion, and then raise an obedient puppet to succeed Baihu Jiangshen, the best of both worlds.Some people also retorted, saying that Mrs. Xiao Luan is one of the few Jiang Zhengshen in Huang Tingguo after all. Now that Huang Tingguo is undercurrents, although our Ziyang Mansion has already landed, it is best to act more prudently in the near future and be dignified. Mansion, why bother to get angry with a neighbor, Jiang Shen, and spread the word, it's just a joke.

Wu Yi was very annoyed, so he patted the handle of the chair, and said to the current mansion owner, the Jindan cultivator, "Mrs. Xiao Luan doesn't have that much face, so I can let me receive her. Huang Chu, you go and see her. See what she wants to do. If the words are not to your liking, or if you ask someone to do something, and the price is too low, you can catch her and throw her into the dungeon. If you are gentle enough, or the price is fair, then do business with her. The family is big and the business is big, but who is willing to struggle with money. If you have a good talk, you can invite her to the banquet for Mr. Chen tonight to clean up the dust. Remember her seat, well, put it at the place closest to the gate. "

Huang Chu, the head of the Ziyang Mansion, embraced the order.

Wu Yi glanced at everyone, and said with a playful smile: "When I'm not here, I don't care what you do, but now I'm in Ziyang Mansion, if any of you make things selfish, you'll just treat me Treat it like a fool."

Huang Chu, the owner of the palace who really had a bit of dirty ideas, and Mrs. Xiao Luan, a river god, is famous far and wide. He has long coveted her beauty for a long time. Once the monk's soul is detained in the water prison, first slowly grind off the edges and corners. When the ancestor leaves Ziyang Mansion one day, he will let him, the mansion master, do whatever he wants, but his scalp is numb from the fright of Wu Yi's words. Terrified, he lowered his head and cupped his fists again and said, "How dare Huang Chu disregard the kindness of his ancestors' cultivation, how dare he seek his own death like this?"

Wu Yi smiled but didn't smile, and said nothing.

Huang Chu slowly withdrew from the Jianchi hall, and when he walked out, he was dripping with sweat.

The rest of the people, after leaving one after another, were a little gloating.

Wu Yi frowned suddenly, and stretched out his hand to catch a ray of light coming from the sky, which was a flying sword message that completely ignored the formation of Ziyang Mansion.

Such astonishing handwriting, no need to think about it, must be the father who is going to be the deputy mountain master of some academy.

After reading the contents of the letter, Wu Yi rubbed the center of his brows, feeling very headache and uncontrollable anger.

She smashed the handle of the red sandalwood dragon chair with a slap.

I am already polite enough, how can I treat you with hospitality?

Is it impossible to enshrine that Chen Pingan as an ancestor?

It's just that thinking of his father's gloomy face, Wu Yi's face became cloudy and uncertain, and finally heaved a long sigh, that's all, he just endured it for a day or two.

As dusk fell, the entire Purple Qi Palace was brightly lit, as bright as day.

The Ziyang Mansion held a large banquet tonight, and the place was located in the Xuemang Hall of the Ziqi Palace, which was used to entertain first-class guests.

Mrs. Xiao Luan, Baihu Jiangshen, took her personal maid and Sun Dengxian to the banquet in Xuemang Hall under the leadership of a young nun from Ziyang Mansion.

The matter has been negotiated, and for some reason, Mrs. Xiao Luan always feels that the mansion master Huang Chu is a bit reserved, far less energetic than when he appeared in various fairy mansions in the past.

The residence of their group was arranged by Huang Chu in a remote area of ​​Ziyang Mansion. It is impossible to be this Ziqi Palace belonging to Wu Yi's private residence, and there is only one female cultivator of the Three Realms among the outer disciples of Ziyang Mansion, who is in charge of them. Even so, the little monks in the three realms didn't have a good face for a great Jiangzheng Goddess. The shops in Ziyang Mansion bully customers, and the kind of condescendingness that comes from the bones can be seen at a glance.

Except Mrs. Xiao Luan, the servant girl and the three elders all had ugly faces at that time, only Mrs. Xiao Luan remained calm.

Then something even more outrageous happened, and the maidservant and Sun Deng couldn't help but snort coldly.

After the female cultivator of the three realms tremblingly entered the gate of the Ziqi Palace, she walked on thin ice every step. The rumors about the Ziqi Palace were all awe-inspiring, but she only walked halfway. She pointed out to the group of guests After finding the general road, he said that Mrs. Xiao Luan should go to the Xuemang hall by herself. Anyway, the seat is easy to find, and it is next to the gate.

Mrs. Xiao Luan comforted the two of them a few words, but seeing that the effect was not great, she had to go ahead with a wry smile.

As a result, they bypassed a screen wall and met another group of people in a long corridor.

It was Chen Pingan and the other four. Chen Pingan was personally invited by an old monk in the Longmen Realm before. However, after Chen Pingan asked about the way, he said that he would not bother the old man to lead the way, and that he could go by himself. The old monk who has the power of life and death, the monk in the realm, wanted to insist, but when he thought about what the ancestor Jian Chitang said earlier, and the aftertaste he chewed, he felt that it was better to follow this Mr. Chen, so he pleaded guilty and turned around. Go about your own business.

The two sides just met at the intersection of the two corridors.

Chen Pingan stopped first, letting Mrs. Xiao Luan and her party go first.

Mrs. Xiao Luan smiled and nodded, as a way of thanking the stranger.

A young man in white with a long sword on his back in Ziqi Palace

Mrs. Xiao Luan didn't think much about it either.

Her personal maid couldn't help but take another look at Chen Ping'an, hehe, there was a vermilion wine jug hanging on her waist.

It looks like an inner sect genealogy immortal master in Ziyang Mansion, but why is he not as domineering as a cultivator in Ziyang Mansion?

Sun Deng, who was walking at the back, was very melancholy and depressed, so he didn't pay attention to Chen Ping's group of people.

Suddenly he heard someone shouting: "Heroes!"

Sun Deng ignored it first and continued on his way.

But the man continued: "Hero Centipede Ridge, we met before the temple was destroyed."

Sun Deng froze for a moment, stopped, turned his head and looked at the young man in white with a bright smile on his face, "You are"

Chen Pingan walked up to Sun Dengxian quickly, and said with a smile: "Hero, do you still remember, at the ruined temple, I took two little guys with me, one in Tsing Yi and the other in pink skirt. You also kindly reminded me to pay attention, saying that not all the people on the mountain don’t mind if someone has a spirited monster around them.”

Sun Dengxian suddenly realized, and laughed heartily, "Well, it turned out to be you."

Chen Ping scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, "In the past two years, I have grown fast and changed my outfit again. It's normal for a hero not to recognize me."

Sun Deng first slapped Chen Ping'an on the shoulder heavily, "Good boy, not bad, you have made a name for yourself. You can eat and drink in Ziqi Palace. Wait a while. I guess our seats will not be too far away. Then we will have a good time." Have a drink or two."

Chen Pingan was just happy, nodded and said yes.

Back then in Centipede Ridge, this man held a talisman silver knife, and together with others chased and captured a beautiful woman in the form of a fox.He also almost clashed with a group of sons and daughters of eunuchs who traveled around the rivers and lakes, but in the end he was subdued by the man with the ruthless fox spirit, who seemed to call herself Mrs. Qing Ya.

For that encounter by chance, Chen Ping'an has a particularly deep memory.

It can even be said that Chen Pingan's vague impression of Jianghu, what is meant by a chivalrous man, what is meant by subduing demons and eliminating demons, and how he really views the sinister Jianghu all stemmed from that chance encounter and onlookers.

Chen Pingan felt that it was a great surprise that he was able to meet that man with a quick shot again in this Ziyang Mansion.

It's just that Chen Ping'an is completely happy.

Pei Qian's eyes widened.

That Huang Tingguo sixth realm warrior who didn't know which onion slapped him down.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Lian couldn't stop smiling, and Shi Rou's eyelids trembled even more. She thought in her heart that if Cui Dongshan was here, she probably would have died for this short-sighted quack.

Mrs. Xiao Luan, who was beside Sun Deng, also heard the movement behind them, and they all stopped. Sun Deng turned his head and introduced Chen Pingan to them with a smile. He laughed heartily and said, "This little brother is the one I mentioned to you He is a young man, young, with good fists and even more courage. Back then, he was only three or four realms of martial arts, and he dared to walk around the rivers and lakes with two little monsters. However, compared to the embroidered pillows of those eunuch children, This young hero needs a lot of experience in the world."

Mrs. Xiao Luan, who was graceful and beautiful, had a smile on her face again, but the maid beside her had already signaled Sun Deng with her eyes to stop dawdling and to go to the Xuemang hall for the banquet, so as not to cause trouble.

An old man reminded softly: "Xiao Sun, you can chat while walking."

Sun Deng felt a little resentful first, but fortunately Chen Ping'an said with a smile: "It's important to go to the banquet. The hero's surname is Sun and my surname is Chen Ping'an. Sun Daxia can just call me Chen Ping'an."

Mr. Sun Deng was originally a heroic knight-errant by nature, so he was not polite, "Okay, I will call you Chen Pingan."

Mrs. Xiao Luan continued on her way.

Sun Dengxian stayed at the end and chatted enthusiastically with Chen Pingan.

At the end of the corridor, a voice of reprimand suddenly sounded, "What's the matter with you? Do you want our ancestors and the Palace Master to wait for you to sit down before we start the meeting, Mrs. Xiao Luan? You are so arrogant!"

It was the steward of the inner door of the Ziyang Mansion who hurriedly turned to the end of the corridor, with an extremely arrogant look on his face, and he didn't pay attention to a righteous god of Jiang Shui at all.

After the steward reprimanded her, she turned around and left with a black face, "Hurry up, you're really a mother-in-law."

After the steward turned around, Mrs. Xiao Luan narrowed her eyes, exhaled lightly, and her expression returned to normal.

Sun Deng first scolded his mother in a low voice.

Chen Pingan did not speak.

All the monks in the middle five realms of Ziyang Mansion have gathered in Xuemang Hall.

When Mrs. Xiao Luan walked outside the threshold of the lobby, she slowed down, because she already had the feeling of being on her back.

The steward was standing at the gate, staring hard at Baihu River Goddess, and said in a low voice, "Hurry up and sit down."

Mrs. Xiao Luan had no expression on her face, and she crossed the threshold. Behind her were the maidservant and the two friends from the rivers and lakes. The steward was willing to stab Baihu Jiangshen, but he could only sneer at the nonsense stuff after that.

It's just that when he saw Sun Deng who had a close relationship with one person, the manager suddenly smiled stiffly, and sweat oozes from his forehead instantly.

Sun Dengxian was a little puzzled and couldn't figure it out, so he just strode across the threshold.

Chen Pingan, who walked into Xuemang Hall a little slower, looked as usual.
