Sword comes

Chapter 870 What a pity

Zhengyang Mountain, Guoyun Tower.

After the rain, the sky is sunny and the weather is fresh.

At Bailudu outside the mountain, clumps of reeds have bloomed, and the rice on the other side of the terrace is golden.

The hilltops of Zhengyang Mountain in the distance seem to be more busy, civil construction, sewing and mending.

There were no guests in the familiar A-shaped room, so Chen Pingan went to the room, moved a wicker chair to the viewing platform and sat, overlooking the nearest Qingwu Peak, gently shaking the Yangjian in his hand gourd.

Once some things start, it is difficult to quit, such as who you like, or drinking.

At the wine table, Chen Pingan has seen a lot of human feelings and the state of the world.Drinking alcohol can make a taciturn person talkative, it can make a person who usually likes to speak loudly whisper, it can make people smile but their eyes are hazy without knowing it, and it can turn an old man into a child.

I don't know what will happen to my Chief Zhou when he arrives in the wild world, and how much commotion he will make.

A willow leaf beheads the immortal.

As for the natal supernatural power of Jiang Shangzhen's flying sword, Chen Pingan never asked.

Cui Dongshan casually mentioned that Chief Zhou's flying sword was of high rank and unparalleled sharpness, and could be rated as a first-class in the summer palace. .

What was more surprising was that Ni Yuerong, who was supposed to go to the Dali Zhongyue boundary, was actually in the inn right now, as if she was checking the accounts.

Ni Yuerong noticed the abnormal phenomenon of Qi here, and immediately put down the account book that became more and more sad, and hurried to check the truth. Before she left, she was still silently praying in her heart, don't let it be that person, don't let it be that person ...

Probably because there are still fewer people going to the temple to burn incense on weekdays, afraid of what will happen, Ni Yuerong turned sideways slightly, and gave the uninvited guest a blessing, she hesitated for a while, thought carefully, and deliberately used a relatively unfamiliar name, "I have seen Immortal Master Cao."

Chen Pingan turned his head, raised the sword gourd in his hand, and said: "First of all, I must congratulate Master Ni, who is expected to be the God of Wealth of the Lower Sect of Zhengyang Mountain."

Ni Yuerong hastened to give her a blessing again.

If you really want to worry about it, she can be promoted to the third leader of the next sect in the future, she really has to thank the Luoluo Mountain Sword Immortal for making a big fuss.

Otherwise, with one radish and one hole, it will be her turn to Qingwu Peak Longmen Realm, who is not a sword cultivator, to occupy an important position in the next sect?A beautiful thing you can't even dream of.

She, the former shopkeeper of Guoyun Tower, is not a sword cultivator like her senior brother Wei Yueshan. The two senior brothers and sisters who used to be at odds are now too close. A shared weal and woe that almost destroyed the sect made this pair of senior brothers and sisters truly love each other. When it came to the love of the same family, before Ni Yuerong left the sect, the two parties had a frank heart-to-heart talk in private, made up their minds, and they will get along and support each other in the future. In the future, I will try my best to take care of my peak.

Ni Yuerong said cautiously: "The matter of the next sect has not yet been settled."

Chen Pingan smiled and said: "You Zhengyang Mountain are famous friends all over the world, this little thing is nothing to worry about."

Ni Yuerong didn't appear to be embarrassed at all. Year after year, she was as thick-skinned as she was with overlapping account books.

Chen Pingan asked suspiciously, "Why is Immortal Master Ni still at Guoyun Tower?"

It stands to reason that the preparations for the establishment of the next sect are intricate, and Ni Yuerong, as the person who settles the accounts and manages the money, is also a new official, so she should be the most inseparable.

Ni Yuerong was a little dazed, a little unreal, as if she was being polite and casual, but she was here before, when Chen Pingan met the suzerain Zhuhuang, she didn't dare to breathe.At that time, the two suzerains were sitting opposite each other. Anyway, she didn't dare to take a second look at any of them.

When Ni Yuerong heard the question, she immediately restrained her mind and carefully answered her words: "Returning to Master Cao, Yuerong is temporarily busy this time, and needs to go to the ancestor hall of the ancestors. Regarding the matter of Yunxiaxiang business, I hope Sect Master Zhu can do it." Make an idea, because the price given by Yunxia Mountain..."

"Don't say anything specific, I'm an outsider, don't break the rules."

Chen Ping waved his hand, stopped Ni Yuerong's words, and said casually: "It seems that the business of the inn has become deserted."

Ni Yuerong just hummed in a soft voice, and didn't dare to slander her.

Why is the business sluggish and there are few customers?Who is to blame?Of course it's because she, the shopkeeper, doesn't know how to make money.

Otherwise, blame this courteous and thoughtful Lord Chen Shan.It's too unreasonable.

The first suzerain of the future sect of Zhengyang Mountain is Yuanbai, the sword repairman of the old Zhuying Dynasty, because he once had a sword questioning with Fengleiyuan Huanghe, and Yuanbai injured the root of the Dao. One of Ying's twin jades, a genius swordsman, will stop at the Nascent Soul Realm in this life.

Bamboo Emperor is indeed a tolerant person. Yuan Bai once publicly declared that he had withdrawn from Zhengyang Mountain in full view of everyone on the way to observe the ceremony. He made it clear that your first-line peak ancestor hall genealogy will not be removed, so Yuan Bai will act as if he did it himself.

Of course, it is still just a so-called next sect, just like what Ni Yuerong said, I dare not say that it is a certainty.After such a turmoil in watching the ceremony, there were even more surprises.

During the discussion of the Zhongtu Confucian Temple before, Song Changjing asked the Confucian Temple for at least three additional sects. Among the candidate sects in Aquarius Continent, apart from this Zhengyang Mountain, there is only Yunxia who lacks a monk of the upper five realms. Mountain, an ancient Buddhist temple located near Xiaolongqiu in Yandang Mountain, the Taoist temple in the mountain where Cao Rong, Lu Chen's direct disciple, and Shen Gaozong hoped to have one more descendant, plus Dali's native fairy house Changchun Palace, in short, each The other forces are now vying for these three places.

Originally, Zhengyang Mountain had the most hope to add a Zong Xian Mansion with the prefix of Zong. Don't look at Dali Fan Wang Song Mu who stumbled and deliberately obstructed this matter, and even put on a posture of not discussing it at all. Singing double reeds with His Majesty Emperor Dali, one red face and one white face, so that the monks of Zhengyang Mountain will not be too arrogant, so that the tail will not be lost, and the future will be difficult to restrain. It can dispel the resentment that some of the immortal mansions on the mountain, especially the old brand Zong, have against the Dali Song family's efforts to support Zhengyang Mountain.

In addition to killing three birds with one stone, the Dali court also has a hidden trick.

It's not how the Dali court favors Zhengyang Mountain, but the Dali Song Clan and Aquarius Island need to gather more kendo luck that was originally scattered across the continent.

Therefore, there is not much suspense about the establishment of the next sect in Zhengyang Mountain.

In Chen Pingan's view, Yunxia Mountain, which has always had the best reputation and the highest voice, is the least likely to officially join the ranks of the sect. planning.

The Cliff Academy and the Linlu Academy are among the 72 academies of the Confucian Temple. In addition, one temple and one temple are among the sects, so the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism will really take root in Aquarius Island. It can be stabilized gradually, and the time is on the right track.

The most important thing is that Aquarius Continent can get a greater gift of luck during the Sanjiao Patriarch's walk. I believe these have long been within the established plan of senior brother Cui Chan.

Chen Pingan thinks he is like a chess player, he just memorizes some so-called good moves and fixed formulas by rote, and puts things together on the chessboard. He is good at dismantling and cutting, but short at sewing and gluing.

This is also the root cause of Chen Pingan's deliberate planning and planning before making a move when he is watching the ceremony at Zhengyang Mountain, because he must let himself have the first mover advantage and be the first to set the chessboard.

So compared to senior brothers Cui Chan, Zheng Juzhong, and Wu Shuangjiang, they are far behind.

Human kindness is practiced unconsciously, and cunning is calculated without showing any traces.

Song Jixin of Niping Lane is actually growing.

It is said that there are several Shanshui mansion newspapers in Zhongtu Shenzhou, and they all start to study young people in Lizhu Cave.

The bamboo shoots spring up after the rain, grow vigorously, and grow into a forest.

Just now, Ni Yuerong mistakenly thought that Chen Pingan said that the establishment of the Xiazong was a trivial matter, and that he was ridiculing Zhengyang Mountain and pouring salt on the wound.

In fact, that is really a small thing.Of course, the premise is that Zhengyang Mountain himself will stop being a monster, beg for help honestly, pay money and give people, Jianxiu obediently enlists in the army, serves as a monk with the army, and follows the Dali Iron Cavalry to the wilderness to participate in the battle, then the next thing is natural It will work out.

It's not that Ni Yuerong is not smart enough, but because Guoyun Tower and Qingwu Peak are not high enough, even if a monk stands on the top of the mountain, he can't see far away.

The real surprise was that Chen Pingan was determined to let Zhengyang Mountain die by itself within a few hundred years. Yangshan is tit for tat, then the latter will soon become a source of water, sitting on nothing.

For the time being, Chen Pingan had no way to compete with the smartest people in the world, but he was more than enough to deal with old sword celestial beings like Zhu Huang and Yan Chu who liked to sit and watch the sky.

Ni Yuerong asked: "Master Cao, let me prepare some wine, water and fruits?"

Not long ago, she got a square-inch object from the Patriarch Hall, named "Shufengqing", which contained the painting scroll with the white jade scroll head. In fact, there was one in Qingwu Peak at home, but the senior brother is the peak owner. , not her turn.

According to the ancestral practice of Yixian Peak, all the mountain gate treasures recorded in the book are only used by the descendants and still belong to the Patriarch Hall.

Just like the former fairy Su Jia, whose heart of sword was broken by the Yellow River in Fengleiyuan, she had to return the priceless sword gourd before she went down the mountain sadly.

Chen Pingan politely declined: "There's no need to be so polite, I'm not here to catch the autumn wind, I'm just passing by."

In the field of vision, the peaks of Zhengyang Mountain after the rain have different scenery. Between Shuilong Peak and Yujiao Peak, which are relatively dense in water transport, there is even a rainbow hanging, which is a picture scroll of fairy spirit.

Yixian Peak, Big and Small Lonely Mountains, Immortal Carrying Sword Peak, Full Moon Peak, Qiuling Mountain, Shuilong Peak, Cloud Pulling Peak, Flying Peak, Qiongzhi Peak, Yujiao Peak, Zhuyu Peak, Qingwu Peak...

This is the first hostile sect in Luoba Mountain.

Xia Yuancui's Manyue Peak, and Qiuling Mountain, which was sealed by the Bamboo Emperor, Xia Yuancui and Tao Yanbo, two old sword celestial beings, one jade uncut and one Yuanying, really formed an alliance.

Qiu Lingshan was most severely injured. Tao Yanbo himself resigned from his status as the God of Wealth of the Zongmen, declaring to the outside world that he had thought about his mistakes behind closed doors for a long time. , Xia Yuancui, the highest seniority, replaced Yan Chu's palm law, anyway, it was the benefit of not taking it for nothing.

Leng Qi, the female patriarch of Qiongzhi Peak, has retreated to thank guests. Now Yifeng is close to closing the mountain. Sword woman sword repair.

As for the leader of Yujiao Peak, Yu Lin, this young and promising Jindan Sword Immortal, it is estimated that he will never have the heart to challenge the Longquan Sword Sect again in this life.

Situ Wenying, who was born in Manyue Peak, did not hesitate to become a ghost, or just left. Before her death, she has been infatuated with Li Tuanjing in Fenglei Garden, but she didn't know that Li Tuanjing's reincarnation was far away in the sky and close in front of her eyes. It was the boy genius who was brought up the mountain by Zhuyu Feng Tianwan.

Zhu Huang suddenly made a rule that during his tenure as the suzerain of Zhengyang Mountain, Yixian Peak will no longer set up the post of mountain guard for worship from now on.

Chen Pingan shook the vermilion wine gourd, and said with a smile: "I have to talk too much, please trouble Master Ni to go to the wine cellar to get two jugs of wine."

Ni Yuerong left immediately and went to get some wine.

Dare not to be negligent, just go back, Ni Yuerong brought two pots of Changchun wine that had been preserved for many years in Guoyunlou, Chen Pingan, who had been sitting on the rattan chair, only took a pot of wine, waved his sleeves, and moved a chair in the room Move over to the observation deck.

Ni Yuerong thanked her, and after she sat down, she lifted the mud seal of a jug of wine, and took a sip of the wine.

Chen Ping shook the jug, put it to his ear, listened to the hops, and then said with a smile: "It's real wine, but it's a pity that there is a lot of wine."

New hatred, old hatred, new wine and old wine.

Maybe some new grudges become old grudges that have been accumulated for many years, and they will also run away drinking, and the weight is reduced every year without knowing it.

But there is also some resentment, just like Chief Zhou said, it's like that old turtle's mouth, biting it tightly and not letting it go.

Chen Pingan suddenly asked: "Is there anyone sneaking around to destroy the stone tablet on the border at Zhengyang Mountain?"

Ni Yuerong's heartstrings tensed immediately. Sure enough, this trip back to Zhengyang Mountain, is Chen Jianxian here to ask the teacher for his crime?

I drank fine wine by myself?

It's just that the half of the stele erector said something that Ni Yuerong couldn't even think of, "The stele will stand there for a long time. This is the rule set by Luopo Mountain and Zhengyang Mountain. What happens outside of this You don't need to be too nervous about anything, for example, if someone breaks it, the first-line peak will be erected again. Anyway, I don't need to spend money, but the time should not be delayed for too long. If someone throws it away, you just need to move it back to the original place, handwriting

If someone erases it with sword energy, remember to engrave it again. "

Ni Yuerong had no choice but to agree in a low voice.

Chen Pingan drank the Changchun wine that he had tasted for the first time, and said with a smile: "If you Zhengyang Mountain are worried that I will find an excuse and take the opportunity to make trouble, so you deliberately punish someone severely, especially if you are ruthless. Why interrupt the disciples?" The Changsheng Bridge, removing the name of the Shanshui genealogy, driving down the mountain, etc., are all exempted."

Ni Yuerong's thoughts changed sharply, and she didn't dare to agree immediately. Of course, she was worried that the green-clothed sword fairy was talking ironically.

Chen Pingan didn't care what kind of wild thoughts Ni Yuerong was thinking, "I will send a message to Bamboo Emperor later on, Immortal Master Ni, saying that these passionate young people are probably the future of your Zhengyang Mountain."

Ni Yuerong quickly glanced at the side face of the young sword fairy, her expression did not seem to be fake, she quickly lowered her head to drink, a little confused, feeling absurd, for some reason, why did she feel that the mountain owner of Luoluo Mountain seemed to be her own boss? The Suzerain of Yangshan?

Chen Pingan continued: "Of course, there are many accidents on the way of practice. You can't just blindly be young and energetic, and keep making mistakes as a talent. Ruthless hands, insidious tricks, beating to death if you can't escape, you elders on the mountain, it's best to avoid it if you can, and stop it if you can."

"Otherwise, if something like this really happens, then the new law-in-charge Xia Yuancui will personally go to our Luopo Mountain to collect the corpse, and then return to this place with a certain sword cultivator from Luopo Mountain to receive a gift in return."

"As for the sword cultivators of Zhengyang Mountain, rush to Dalilongzhou, be dignified and upright, climb the mountain and ask the sword of Luopo Mountain, let's talk about it."

Ni Yuerong silently wrote down these important matters, and then she made up her own mind and took out the scroll from the square inch of things, planning to find a reason, reluctantly part with Luopo Mountain, or this young sword fairy in front of her, to be nice to her. Well, forge a personal friendship, a little bit of love.Even if the other party takes the treasure, but doesn't appreciate it at all, it doesn't matter, she will treat it as a waste of money and eliminate disasters, and since ancient times, she has never reached out to hit smiling people.

Chen Pingan didn't look sideways, but he seemed to have insight into people's hearts, and he knew Ni Yuerong's plan, and said with a smile: "Cultivation is not easy, and the money in anyone's pocket is not obtained by strong winds and floods."

Ni Yuerong resentfully put away the scroll, plucked up her courage, and asked a question that she had been baffled by all these days, "Sect Master Chen, why are you facing Qingwu Peak alone, and us passing through Yunlou? Are you still... polite?"

She is also a female monk, Leng Qi of Qiongzhi Peak is in a desolate situation, not much better than Tao Yanbo's Qiuling Mountain. Today's Qiongzhi Peak is not a closed mountain, but Leng Qi, the founder of the peak, is not in retreat. It's like retreating.

Chen Pingan was lying on the rattan chair, with his hands covering his sleeves, "I just said that it is not easy to practice. It is not easy for women to practice in Zhengyang Mountain."

Then sat up, Chen Pingan looked at the quiet scenery on the other side of the ferry, "Some things are understandable, but I don't think you did the right thing, and I don't look down on you, but I don't feel sorry for anything."

Ni Yuerong neither showed a grateful expression nor said anything.

She just stopped drinking, the woman's eyebrows and eyes were gentle, her hands and fingers intertwined, quietly, looking at the green mountains and white clouds in the distance.

Chen Pingan was about to finish drinking the pot of Changchun wine in his hand, then left Zhengyang Mountain, continued on his way, traveled to the next place, and said with a smile: "I didn't intend to talk so much at first, if Immortal Master Ni wasn't here, at most I would just go to visit you." Go down to Shuilong Peak, and thank people."

It's about that talented brother from Shuilongfeng who is diligent and conscientious in managing the information on Zhengyang Mountain.

Chen Ping asked casually: "Have you thought about the name of the next sect?"

Ni Yuerong didn't think there was anything to hide about this kind of thing, so she said without hesitation: "The Patriarch Hall means to name it 'Huangshan Sword Sect', but it hasn't been officially finalized yet, so it's tentatively decided."

Previously, there was no discussion at Yixianfeng Patriarch Hall. There was no discussion about this matter.

What's more, even if the sect is established and approved, the name of the sect needs to be read from the meaning of the Dali court first. If the Zhongtu Confucian Temple does not decide or nod in the end, it will have to be renamed again.Rumor has it that in history, there are many cases where the names of sects were not accepted by the Confucian Temple. For example, there was a Kendo sect in Luzhou, Beiju. At first, they planned to name themselves "The First Sword Sect", but they were directly rejected by the Confucian Temple. , okay, let me change the head office to a less prominent name, so I gave Confucian Temple a "Second Sword Sect"...

As a result, a sage who accompanied the Confucian Temple in the Tianmu of Luzhou, Beiju, asked the Yupujing Sword Cultivator, who was planning to establish a sect, if you were out of your mind.

Chen Ping smiled and said: "It can be seen from this that your suzerain has high hopes for this lower sect."

The name of the next sect is "Huangshan", and the bamboos all over the mountain, of course, have a good meaning.

The suzerain Zhuhuang, of course, also has two selfish intentions. One is to use this to tell all the descendants of the two sects under the mountain that this lower sect was created by him alone, and the "Bamboo Emperor" is "Huang". The green bamboos are full of "mountains", and they can gather the kendo luck that flows like water in the old Zhuying land. The Bamboo Emperor obviously wants to use the kendo luck of the entire Xiazong to help him break through the bottleneck of the Jade Realm in the future and join the Immortal, became the second sword cultivator in Immortal Realm after Fengxue Temple Wei Dajianxian.

Like the Dragon Elephant Sword Sect built by Qi Tingji in Nan Po Suozhou, Master Ruan’s Longquan Sword Sect, and Beiju Luzhou, Taihui Sword Sect, Duckweed Sword Lake... Most of these kendo sects carry a sword The word prefix is ​​not as simple as showing your identity, it is largely related to luck.Similar to the fact that monster clans take their real names, the gods of mountains and rivers are all seeking a "right name" when they are sealed by the court.

The reason why the name of the next sect of Luopo Mountain is still unresolved is that Cui Dongshan hopes that the name of the next sect will have the word "sword" in it.

Then the Lower Sect of Luopo Mountain became the first kendo sect in Yizhou Mountains and Rivers in Tongyezhou in the south, just like the Longquan Sword Sect founded by Ruan Qiong became the "first" of Yizhou kendo.

The heaven and the earth have the same power, and it is not a trivial matter to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger. The Longquan Sword Sect was founded not long ago.

There are already Liu Xianyang, Xie Ling, and Xu Xiaoqiao. If you add Yu Lin and Liu Yu who transferred to Zhengyang Mountain halfway, and then through the support of the Dali court, they help carefully select the embryo of the sword fairy. Originally, the Longquan sword would last for at most two to 300 years. Zong will become a veritable master of swordsmanship with a very small number of sword cultivators.

Just like the matter of naming under the mountain, it is not appropriate to name your child too big, because you are worried that you will not be able to bear it, but if you really want to choose a "big name", then most of the time you will give your child another nickname that sounds extremely "low" , the elders in the family often yelled, as a transition.

For example, the Tongye Sect in Tongyezhou is a typical "big name" on the mountain, and the sect is named after a continent.

Haoran Jiuzhou, since thousands of years ago, many great sects with such names in history have disappeared one after another, and finally there is only Tongye Sect left.

Then there was the barbarian attack on Haoran, and what happened to Haoran, in hindsight, the Tongye Sect fell apart first, like some kind of omen of Tongyezhou's land sinking.

On the other hand, Xun Yuan, the old patriarch of the Yugui Sect, traveled to Aquarius Continent back then, and he did not hesitate to feud with Wen Sheng, and he wanted to choose Shujian Lake in Aquarius Continent as the site of his next clan.

The friendship between Jiang Shangzhen and Chen Pingan, the descendant of Wensheng, prevented the two parties from becoming deadly enemies. Probably this is the way of an old suzerain.

Ni Yuerong didn't know that one unintentional remark of hers could make the mountain owner of Luoba Mountain think so much.

Chen Pingan drank in silence.

Ni Yuerong hesitated to speak.

Chen Pingan said, "Is there something wrong?"

Ni Yuerong took a big gulp of wine, and after borrowing her courage, she changed the title of "Chen Shanzhu" as the beginning, and said in a low voice: "We at Qingwu Peak recently recruited two young sword cultivators. Among them is a sword fairy embryo with excellent aptitude who admires Chen Shanzhu very much. Really, it is definitely not Yue Rong who is trying to get close to her on purpose. That little girl really admires Chen Shanzhu's sword fairy demeanor from the bottom of her heart. The door just received a group of sword cultivators, so she missed the ceremony, and she was pure-minded and didn't think too much. In fact, the senior brother reminded her of this, but the child didn't listen, and just ignored it, so that every time she practiced Apart from the sword, she also needs to learn some quack-style boxing and kicking skills, no matter how much she persuades her, the brother treats her like half his own daughter, and almost wants to go to Biefeng to steal a few high-quality sword manuals. I only hope that she can Practice your sword hard and strive to form a golden core within Jiazi, so that you can keep Qingwu Peak."

Qingwufeng in the early years relied on Ni Yuerong's master, Ji Yan, and the incense of the mountain lord, Zhuhuang, to throw Qingwufeng to one or two sword cultivators from time to time, but Qingwufeng couldn't keep it, so that For 240 years, Qingwu Peak has not had a ground immortal sword cultivator sitting on the top of the mountain. With Ni Yuerong and senior brother, it is doomed to have no hope of forming a golden pill. Besides, the two of them are not sword cultivators. Feng Zuli, for 300 years without a Golden Core Sword Cultivator, will be removed from the peak, then she and her senior brother will be the biggest sinners who buried Qingwu Peak with their own hands.

Ni Yuerong suddenly realized that her words were out of proportion.

Excellent qualifications?Sword fairy embryo?

I just want to think that for her, but the young mountain owner of the downcast mountain next to him, would he find it extremely ridiculous after hearing this?

Chen Ping said helplessly, "Tell me what to do."

In order to keep the incense of Qingwu Peak, Ni Yuerong wiped the sweat from her forehead, she didn't care about it, and said tentatively: "Yuerong dare not have any unreasonable thoughts, I just hope that if I pass by Qingwu Peak again in the future, Chen The Lord of the Mountain can teach her a thing or two about swordsmanship, even if it's just a few words."

Chen Ping waved his hands and stood up, "Don't think about such things."

The last time I asked about Zhengyang Mountain, I didn't feel that the mountains and rivers were so dangerous.

Ni Yuerong sighed and had no choice but to give up.

Chen Ping looked at those terraced fields, and asked for no reason: "Have you ever thrashed rice?"

Ni Yuerong shook her head and said, "I just saw it from a distance."

Chen Pingan joked: "You can let the disciples of Qingwu Peak go down the mountain to try this out in their spare time."

However, Ni Yuerong seemed to have received an imperial decree, "Discuss this matter with my senior brother when I turn back, and include it in the regulations of Qingwu Peak's ancestral training."

Chen Jianxian's words seemed to be an understatement, but when he said it casually, there must be a lot of deep meaning in it!

Chen Ping rubbed the center of his brows, and said helplessly, "I was just joking, you are really not afraid of being laughed at by Bie Feng."

Ni Yuerong smiled sweetly and said, "Isn't our Qingwu Peak often seen as a joke? I don't care about this one more thing."

Heh, maybe Qingwu Peak will set a precedent in the future, and Biefeng will have to follow suit.

Before Chen Ping left, he put the empty jug into his sleeve and said with a smile, "I hope I didn't drink a jug of wine from shopkeeper Ni in Yunlou."

Ni Yuerong just took it as a joke and didn't care.

In an instant, there was no longer the figure in the green shirt on the viewing platform.

Ni Yuerong was relieved.

A moment later, there was a cyan sword light from Yixian Peak and went straight to Yunlou.

The Bamboo Emperor floated to the ground, putting his sword back into its sheath.

Ni Yuerong immediately bowed to salute, "I have seen the suzerain."

"Are you crazy?"

With a smile on his face, Zhu Huang cut straight to the point and said, "How dare you send a flying sword to the Patriarch Hall under Chen Shanzhu's nose?"

It turned out that when Ni Yuerong went to help Chen Shanzhu to get the two pots of Changchun wine, after a battle between heaven and man, she still put herself in danger and secretly sent a message to the first-line peak with a flying sword to inform the suzerain Zhuhuang.

Ni Yuerong was uneasy, would she be angered by the Zhu Emperor, and she would lose the third position in the future sect like this?

Bamboo Emperor said: "Then do you know that just now Master Chen Shan held the flying sword and personally delivered the letter to Yixian Peak for you?"

Ni Yuerong was dumbfounded and terrified.That's enough, don't say that if I don't have enough to eat, I'm afraid that Qingwu Peak will be implicated.

But why did Chen Jianxian take the pot of wine even though he knew about it?Waiting to see her jokes?

Could it be that Chen Jianxian took the initiative to ask for drinks, just deliberately waiting for his flying sword to deliver a message?

And why did the suzerain Zhuhuang seem to be relaxed instead of angry?

Bamboo Emperor looked at this woman who didn't understand the key point, and shook his head, is this considered a fool's blessing?

Ni Yuerong asked in a low voice: "What did Chen Shanzhu say to me just now, should I repeat it to the suzerain?"

Bamboo Emperor shook his head, came to the railing, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the Qingwu Peak, "No, this is your own fortune."

Ni Yuerong looked embarrassed, and said: "But Chen Shanzhu has something to say, let me pass it to the suzerain."

Bamboo Emperor turned his head.

Ni Yuerong was waiting for the suzerain to speak.

Zhu Huang laughed angrily: "Why, wait until I kneel down and beg you to open your mouth?"

----

Qingfufang's business is the only one at the Xianjia Ferry in Dilong Mountain.

The borders of more than ten countries in the middle of Aquarius Continent, where the final battle ended, were actually much less damaged than Chen Ping'an imagined.In fact, half of the mountains and rivers in the south of Aquarius Island are much better than the scattered and devastated Tongyezhou. Afterwards, the army dispersed in Tongyezhou, passing through the territory like a scourge, carefully searched everywhere, ruins everywhere, corpses everywhere, it was still horrible, especially those sects on the mountain full of aura, and the dynasty under the mountain full of treasury. He was not spared, and when he crossed the sea and crossed the north, after the old dragon city fell, he went north to Aquarius Continent.

It can be seen from this that the Wilderness Army tent made up their minds to rely on the entire southern territory, gave up the plan of a quick battle, and came to a bitter battle with Dali to "exploit" each other, and each added fuel to the battlefield. Who can consume who? Let's see if the big Li iron cavalry that once gathered the power of a continent killed more enemies or died more in battle.

Qingfufang is still the same, with a five-story building, but the wood is brand new and newly built, only the plaques and couplets are old.

It must have been because they moved to the north to take refuge, and they couldn't take too much with them. Of course, the wild monsters would not let this kind of extremely precious fairy family ferry go.

Chen Pingan looked at the content of the couplets and smiled a little.

"Young old man is not deceiving, my price is fair; if you compare your heart with your heart, the guest officer will come back later."

In the Jianqi Great Wall's own small wine shop, it is also a similar business experience.

There were five women waiting for business in the lobby, and a young girl in a plain dress immediately stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to hire someone to appraise the treasure, or buy the treasures in the store?"

Chen Pingan looked at a woman who happened to cast her eyes here, turned her head and apologized to the girl, and then said with a smile: "This time I came to Guifang to find Mr. Hong. Let Cuiying lead the way All right."

Because according to the rules in the workshop, the five women who entertain guests in the hall, unless their respective acquaintances come to the door, whoever shows up and speaks is in order.

There were blue flying insects carved from jasper hanging on the woman's shoulders. She hurried to the man in the green shirt who called her to lead the way. With a charming smile and a little apology in her eyes, she asked softly, "Forgive me for my clumsy eyes." , son is it?"

"The last name is Chen."

Chen Pingan explained with a smile: "More than 20 years ago, I came to Qingfufang with two friends, and it was Mr. Hong who you helped lead the way to find."

It's just that the woman couldn't remember her life and death, but she looked stunned, and smiled sweetly: "Mr. Chen is still handsome."

In fact, at that meeting, the man in front of me was still a young man with a sword in his back, and the business in Qingfufang was good, with countless people coming and going, no matter how good her memory was, how could she recognize him.

Chen Pingan did not expose her polite words, and followed her all the way to the second floor. In the corridor, there was a large brocade lichen, a national specialty in Caiyi. The embroidery was excellent, but it was a new item.

Chen Pingan asked, "How much does this piece of lichen cost now?"

Cuiying smiled and said: "The price has at least doubled compared to previous years. It's really black-hearted. Now Caiyi Kingdom is relying on this and the cockfighting cup to help fill the treasury. It's really a lot of money."

However, Chen Pingan knew that this was one of Dong Shuijing's many sources of income. This fellow from the same village had only one business purpose, to earn money from the rich.

Cuiying gently pushed the door open and said softly, "Mr. Hong, guests are coming."

Chen Pingan stood at the threshold, clasped his fists with a smile and said, "Mr. Hong, we meet again."

Hong Yangbo was stunned for a moment, then got up quickly, "Mr. Chen?"

Originally, he wanted to call the other party Chen Jianxian or Chen Shanzhu respectfully, but Cuiying was on the side, so as not to violate the taboo of landscape.

When we met for the first time, I was still a curious and slightly reserved teenager.Will look around carefully, of course not the kind of scrutiny.

In Hong Yangbo's eyes, the young man traveling far away at that time was at most a martial artist of the third realm.

The second time they met, they turned into a young man wearing a bamboo hat and a blue shirt with a sword on his back, like a ranger in the rivers and lakes.

This time, it was the Zongmen Mountain Master of Luopo Mountain.

Sure enough, the owner has a good vision.

Having only met him once, he was certain that this person was the young sword fairy who repelled Su Lang in the territory of Soshui Kingdom.

Back then, Hong Yangbo was skeptical, but now it seems that it is indeed the Dong family who has a unique eye, and his own old eyes are dizzy.

On the big table, besides the small incense burner, there is also a potted ancient cypress, and a row of boys in green clothes sit on the branches, shaking their feet, but not getting up.

The old man said helplessly: "The little guys are throwing a fit at me."

Chen Ping'an looked soft, smiled and waved, and greeted those little people in green clothes, "Long time no see."

Anyway, I made up my mind, if the little guy doesn't announce the good news to me today, I won't cross the threshold today.

Fortunately, the little ones were very face-saving, chirping and laughing, got up one after another, bowed and bowed, with childish voices, childlike innocence and childishness, and said festive words that Chen Pingan could never tire of listening to, "Welcome to our store, Gongxi Facai!"

Only then did Chen Ping cross the threshold with a smile, turned his head and said to the young woman, "You don't need to be busy here, Mr. Hong and I are old acquaintances. We do some business and draw dividends afterwards. We always follow the rules. You can't believe it." I, I have to trust Mr. Hong. There is no need for tea, I brought my own drinks, and I will treat Mr. Hong to drink."

Hong Yangbo nodded to her, she smiled sweetly, bestowed a blessing, and wished Mr. Chen all wishes and wealth, and then left slowly.

Chen Pingan didn't close the door, and went straight to the table, stopped the old man who was about to move, "Mr. Hong, don't be polite to me, I am very familiar with this place, and I won't treat myself as an outsider. The old gentleman is too polite, is he treating me as an outsider?"

Chen Pingan moved the chair by himself, it was still the antique bay red chair before.

The old, the young, all nostalgic.

Hong Yangbo smiled and nodded, so he didn't go around the table and sat down again.

Glancing at the open door, the old man was filled with emotion. Back then, he just mentioned it casually. After so many years, his memory is really good, not so good.

Chen Pingan held back his laughter, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Hong, you really don't want to help me?"

The Baozhai business at Niujiaoshan Ferry is getting bigger and bigger, and there is always a lack of a real person in charge.Shi Ruan and Jia Sheng, the acting shopkeepers of the two shops in Qilong Lane, are not suitable.

Shi Rou prefers a stable life.As for Old Immortal Jia, he is actually more suitable to be the second in command.

Hong Yangbo waved his hand, and said guiltily: "It's really impossible. It's not that I, this old man, purposely took Joe to raise his own value. It's just that business is, in the final analysis, a human being. The old club had a great kindness for me in the early years, and the young club took over Qinghefang. Afterwards, he treated me well."

The old man then laughed at himself: "It's a bit ignorant to talk about these great principles with Lord Chen Shan."

The old man stayed in Qinghefang for nearly 80 years, just a few glasses of wine.

Chen Pingan took out two jugs of Qingshen Mountain wine brewed in his own wine shop, handed one to the old man, and turned his wrists, and two more wine glasses came out, which were the two Huashen cups from Baihua Fudi. He joked with the old man: "That boss But in the workshop? I will discuss this matter with her directly, and if it doesn’t work, I will rob her.”

If you are used to earning windfall, side wealth and ill-gotten wealth, you will be drinking poison to quench your thirst.The more money there is, the greater the disaster will be.This kind of thing is better to be believed than not to be believed.

This is why Chen Pingan cares so much about the business of the two shops in Qilong Lane. As long as he is in Luobashan, Chen Pingan will go to Qilongxiang in person to check the accounts carefully on time, and he doesn't even ask the two shops to hand over the books to Luopishan .Because only he, the owner of the mountain, really cares about this matter, Shi Ruan, Jia Sheng, and the two shopkeepers will follow suit, and will not be completely inappropriate because of the entry of a few taels of silver or a few snowflakes. thing.

Hong Yangbo's eyes lit up, and he picked up the wine glass, "This Flora Cup doesn't seem to be a fake?"

These are similar to the pair of Qingshenshan bamboo chopsticks in the early years, they are all good items with a price but no market.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "I can't guarantee whether it's true or not. Anyway, I picked it up. If Mr. Hong is willing to change his mind now, I'll give you a whole set of Flower Cups as a gift."

Hong Yangbo stared and said: "It's not annoying. If you don't want to go, it's not a joke with you. If Chen Jianxian keeps pestering him like this, I will really chase him away. Well, this wine glass must be kept."

Chen Ping looked around, and asked, "Are there any new products here at the shop? As for the piece of imperial pine smoke ink, and "Xi Zai Tie", are they still there?"

Everything in the world is connected by a thread, and many times you have to believe it or not, or you have to believe what you have or what you don't.

That piece of pine smoke ink has a great relationship with the Shenshui Kingdom, that is, it has something to do with the Great Tiger Wei of Piyun Mountain.The reason why Chen Pingan didn't buy it back then was not because he felt sorry for the fairy money, but because he was worried that Wei Bo would be sentimental when he saw the thing. Times have changed, and now there is no such worry.

Hong Yangbo shook his head before nodding: "There are many good items, but there are none that can be called top-notch items, so I won't show them to Chen Jianxian to embarrass others. Fortunately, the two items you mentioned are still there."

I admire my boss more and more.

It's not that these two items can't be sold, but the owner deliberately asked him to keep them, saying that if the green-clothed sword fairy came to the door someday in the future, they could use them as gifts.

Of course, giving favors does not mean giving away two things without receiving money. There is no reason for such a transaction in the world.

The rare copybook from the ancient Shu sword fairy, although it is a copy, but the writing is as beautiful as the remains of autumn cicadas, because it is almost as good as the original, so it has the reputation of "the next-class authentic work". Hong Yangbo offered five Xiaoshu Money, the young man was obviously quite moved, but he directly gave three words, "I can't afford it."

As a result, in the end, he used five Grain Rain Coins to buy the under-the-radar item, a complete set of four Celestial Master Ghost Slaying Coins.

Hong Yangbo took out the imperial ink and the copybook, and said with a smile, "It will be calculated according to the old price."

Chen Pingan took out the fairy money without hesitation, and it was clear and refreshing, and the money and the goods were paid.

Both sides said in unison: "Can I have something to add?"

The old man laughed loudly, and Chen Pingan didn't feel embarrassed.

Hong Yangbo shook his head and said, "It's still the old rules, nothing to add."

Afterwards, the two drank and chatted.

Traveling far away and then returning to one's hometown, one's vision is bigger, but one's hometown is small, and one's old age makes one's hometown thinner.

Life is short, and the rivers and lakes are long.The heart is dangerous, but the wine glass is the widest.

Know how much the world gathers and disperses, and drink a cup slowly.

In the end, Chen Pingan blushed a little after drinking.

After leaving Qingfufang, the last time I was at the ferry, I led a horse. I also met two short, thin, yellow-faced children. In the end, I spent twelve snowflakes on Chen Pingan to buy three children from them. One thing, one "forever blessed" tile inkstone, a pair of old pit yellow jelly old seals, and a shallow bowl made of red material.If it is based on the market price, of course it won't cost so much snowflake money.

It is estimated that those two children took advantage of them and ran away as soon as they got the money.

The two light-footed children started whispering after running away, and there were smiles on the two immature faces.

Chen Pingan didn't feel that he wasted money.

Just like in the small town in his hometown back then, every time the straw sandal boy sent a letter, he would run to the next place.

Chen Pingan had left those pessimistic feelings in the half of Hedao City, and besides...all the hopes.

What are you afraid of?

The old will not go away, but the new will come again.

Hope is just like the spring grass on the original land, going further and further to survive.

Even if disappointment will pile up into mountains, but hope will blossom one after another.

Chen Ping turned his head and looked at the third floor of Qinghefang. There was a woman standing on the railing. It was the owner of Qinghefang who disguised as a maid in the workshop, a woman named Jianxiu who deliberately concealed her appearance.

When she saw Chen Ping turned her head, she immediately turned and walked into the room.

After meeting that young sword fairy last time, he returned to Qinghe Square and had a word with Hong Yangbo.

"At that moment, he was fixed like a clay bodhisattva on a shrine."

Chen Ping retracted his gaze and traveled thousands of miles away in an instant.

Walking slowly above a sea of ​​golden clouds, he took out the copybook he just bought from his sleeve, and laughed at himself.

Because the young hermit in the wild world wearing a lotus crown has just made up his mind to ask the sword to hold Moon Mountain.

And the opening words of this "Xi Zai Tie" are the common feelings of Chen Pingan, Hao Ran and Man Huang.

It's a pity that the swordsmanship is sparse.
