No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right?

night.

Qingyun Daozong.

The sky is like ink.

Everyone gathered in the dining hall again.

Xia Qingmo was leaving tomorrow, and Taoist Taihua showed off his cooking skills again, this time even more meticulously than last time.

At the dinner table, no one mentioned the matter of parting.

Instead, he asked Xia Qingmo something about the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Princess Qingmo, it is said that the Daxia Palace is extremely luxurious, is this true?"

Chen Lingrou looked at Xia Qingmo curiously and asked.

After all, for her, don't talk about the Great Xia Palace, she has never seen even the Jin Palace, so her eyes are naturally full of curiosity.

"Junior Sister, the question you asked is a bit too stupid. The Great Xia Palace must be extremely luxurious. It is one of the five great dynasties. It is estimated that every pillar is made of gold."

"Gold? You underestimate the Great Xia Dynasty, at least it's made of top-quality jade."

Xu Luochen and Wang Zhuoyu were arguing about what the pillars of the Great Xia Dynasty were made of.

And Xia Qingmo smiled lightly.

"It's not made of jade, it's made of a kind of purple-gold sacred wood. Things like gold and jade are too vulgar, so there won't be such things in the Great Xia Palace."

Xia Qingmo said so.

As soon as these words were said, everyone couldn't help being shocked.

"Then how big is the Great Xia Dynasty?"

Chen Lingrou continued to ask.

"I don't know how big it is. There are 3,333 palaces in the palace, each of which is almost ten times the size of this place, and there are also places for sacrifices, places for ancestor dragons, each of which is huge. , In the entire palace, there are a thousand gardens, a thousand viewing spots, and there are two towering mountains in the northwest, which are used for summer recreation."

Xia Qingmo explained.

She didn't exaggerate at all, and she didn't even say it very carefully.

"Three thousand three hundred and thirty-three palaces? What do you need so many palaces for?"

Chen Lingrou clicked her tongue. To her, one palace is very spectacular, three thousand three hundred and thirty-three palaces, how exaggerated is that.

Soon, Chen Lingrou was like a girl with problems, asking a series of questions.

What kind of chopsticks are the chopsticks used by the emperor?

What did the emperor eat.

Everyone listened with gusto.

But after Xia Qingmo explained clearly one by one, everyone looked at the dining table, and felt that it was not so delicious for some reason.

Except for Gu Jianxian, everyone had no appetite for no reason. After all, they heard that the emperor's meal was all kinds of delicacies.

And looking at the dishes on my table, I naturally feel a little inexplicable.

In this way, the dinner lasted until late at night.

Qingyun Qianya.

Xia Qingmo sat alone on the edge of the cliff, watching Hei Qiong quietly.

The cold wind blew and wrinkled Xia Qingmo's long skirt.

There was always a touch of melancholy on his beautiful face.

In fact, her temperament has always been like this. When she was in the palace, there was not a day when she was not like this, and only when she was out of the palace would she change.

No one bothered Xia Qingmo, they all knew that Xia Qingmo wanted to be alone.

That's it, until dawn.

Ye Ping's figure appeared.

He didn't speak, but fetched pen, ink and rice paper.

I haven't painted for a long time.

Ye Ping placed the rice paper on the ground, and habitually pressed the corners with a ruler.

Watching the night scene, Ye Ping let the cold wind blow his long hair, and he remained silent.

On the front cliff.

Xia Qingmo had already noticed Ye Ping's figure, and she didn't say anything, but just glanced at Ye Ping curiously.

After discovering that Ye Ping had brought rice paper, brush and ink, Xia Qingmo couldn't help but wondered for a moment.

"Senior Brother Ye, do you know the art of Danqing?"

Xia Qingmo asked curiously.

"Know a thing or two."

Ye Pingfang smiled gently, then swiped the pen and ink.

He did not paint a night scene, but a landscape painting.

Ye Ping swung his brush with spirit, with a few simple strokes, he drew majestic mountains one after another, and with a few simple strokes, he drew a river.

The boats look lifelike, and the boatman pulls the boat on the bridgehead. This painting is very ordinary, but the painting skills are extremely good.

Xia Qingmo's eyes were very curious. For some reason, she felt that Ye Ping's painting style seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

And this landscape painting is Ye Ping's first painting, and the natural style is somewhat different, so it's normal that Xia Qingmo can't see it.

It takes less than a stick of incense.

The painting is ready.

Ye Ping looked at this painting with a smile on his face.

This is a landscape painting with bridgeheads and winding paths.

Soon, he slowly began to write on this landscape painting.

"There must be a way for a car to go to the mountain, and a straight line for a boat to reach the bridge. You can always pass your worries and troubles, and you don't need to add stones to your heart."

Ye Ping wrote down a proverb, which is not a poem.

This is Ye Ping's parting gift to Xia Qingmo.

And Xia Qingmo has been paying attention to Ye Ping.

This painting is actually very good, whether it is the scenery of the landscape or the image of the characters, it makes her feel the exquisite painting technique.

But when this sentence appeared, it was like the finishing touch, and Xia Qingmo was stunned.

"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain."

"all will be good."

"Sorrow and trouble can always pass."

"There is no need to put a stone on your heart."

These four sentences, inexplicably, made Xia Qingmo feel a lot better, and he couldn't help but brighten up.

But at this moment, what shocked Xia Qingmo was.

Ye Ping took out a seal and signed on it.

【Scholar Qinglian】

boom.

Like a bolt from the blue.

Xia Qingmo froze in place.

She stared at the inscription, which was even more shocking than seeing a peerless expert.

"Are you Lay Qinglian?"

Xia Qingmo suffered from neglect in the palace. It was also a few years ago that his maid brought him a collection of poems.

It was Qinglian Layman's collection of poems, and every poem made her feel the same way.

So she fell in love with Layman Qinglian's poems, and wanted to meet Layman Qinglian very much.

She even wanted to see her with the help of Princess Daxia's identity, but Lay Qinglian had disappeared at that time, and no one could find Lay Qinglian.

For this reason, Xia Qingmo could only treat it as a reunion by buying some paintings by Lay Qinglian.

But what I didn't expect was that my favorite poet and painter was actually by my side.

Moreover, he was so young, and he even tried to save himself.

"It's just a name."

Seeing Xia Qingmo's reaction, Ye Ping was also a little surprised. Looking at this posture, it seemed that Xia Qingmo knew a little about himself.

But Ye Ping doesn't care about his title, he has already cultivated to be an immortal, and the world of mortals is mortal. Now he is Ye Ping, and he is no longer Qinglian Layman.

"Are you really Lay Qinglian?"

Xia Qingmo walked over, her eyes still filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Ye Ping got up, rolled up the painting, and handed it to Xia Qing Modao.

"Replacement as fake."

"Princess Qingmo, you and I have known each other for a while, and we can be regarded as friends. This painting is given to you. If you are really bored in the palace, it's okay to look at this painting. At least you can still have some memories."

"But don't worry, maybe I will go to Daxia Palace to find you in a few days, don't you deny me as a friend then."

Ye Pingfang said with a smile on his face.

In Ye Ping's eyes, Xia Qingmo is his friend, one of the few friends, and Su Changyu and others are his senior brothers, equivalent to relatives.

For friends, Ye Ping will naturally not forget, and if necessary, he will help, so as not to prevent Xia Qingmo from being so melancholy.

"No, no, how could Qing Mo deny senior fellow apprentice Ye."

After getting Ye Ping's exact answer, Xia Qingmo suddenly had an indescribable feeling.

In the lonely palace, she lived on Ye Ping's poetry collection. She said that her love was a bit exaggerated, but she was indeed in love with her. In the past, she had fantasized about what kind of person Qinglian layman was like countless times.

I have also fantasized countless times, the scene of meeting Lay Qinglian for the first time.

But I didn't expect that it would be so sudden, and it would be so incredible.

Perhaps this is life, there are many things that are full of bizarre.

"Princess Qingmo, no matter what happens, don't give up. Although I don't know what you have experienced, I don't advise you to let go. Just remember that after the storm, there will be a rainbow."

"To be happy in life is to be happy, don't let the golden cup be empty to the moon."

Ye Ping opened his mouth and sent Xia Qingmo a few more words.

After saying this, Ye Ping left.

He didn't come to dissuade Xia Qingmo, he just came to enlighten him.

Now what should be said has been said, the rest, Ye Ping did not say anything.

on the cliff.

Xia Qingmo watched Ye Ping leave.

After Ye Ping left, Xia Qingmo looked at the scroll in her hand, and after a while, a smile from the heart appeared on her beautiful face.

That's it, three hours later.

It was full daylight.

The mighty Marquis Iron Cavalry also came, but it was not as grand as before. There were only less than a few hundred people, which seemed very low-key.

Even the mighty Hou Bozhong didn't come over in person, but sent his subordinates to meet Xia Qingmo.

They are very respectful and dare not make mistakes.

When parting, Xia Qingmo said goodbye to everyone one by one.

Everyone also has some reluctance.

After getting along for a short time, they could also see that Xia Qingmo was a poor person, and they also knew very well that after this farewell, they might never see each other again next time.

It's just that there is no feast that lasts forever, and everyone gave Xia Qingmo something, which was regarded as a parting thing and a souvenir.

Especially Su Changyu.

He picked a secret book to give to Xia Qingmo, because he had nothing to give away, so he could only pick a good one from the bookstore and give it to Xia Qingmo.

On the cover of the book, it says "Heaven and Earth Eternal Life Gong"

Su Changyu didn't even look at it. Anyway, it was a gift. If Xia Qingmo practiced it, it would confirm his status as a peerless master. If Xia Qingmo couldn't practice it, it could only show that Xia Qingmo was not as good as Ye Ping .

"Everyone, if you are free in the future, you can also come to the imperial capital to find me, and Qingmo will definitely host a banquet for me then."

In the end, Xia Qingmo left these words, and then left with the cavalry under the eyes of everyone.

As soon as Xia Qingmo left, the sadness of parting shrouded the entire Qingyun Daozong.

Everyone was speechless, but they didn't know what to say, and it wasn't about life and death, so everyone quickly went about their own business.

That's all.

Another two hours.

Outside of Jin.

A big summer dragon boat flies in the sky at extreme speed.

On the dragon boat, Xia Qingmo stood at the bow, silent.

At this very moment, the figure of Marquis Wuwu appeared.

"Princess Qingmo."

Bo Zhong's voice brought Xia Qingmo back to his senses.

"I've seen the mighty Marquis."

Xia Qingmo turned around and bowed to Mighty Marquis Yingying, but she was a little curious. At this time, Mighty Marquis was wearing a mask on his face for some reason.

"Princess Qingmo, this Marquis should not interfere in matters between dynasties, but there are some things that Ben Hou has to remind."

"Now the Great Xia Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles. Since that incident, the fortunes of the Great Xia Dynasty have plummeted, and the other four dynasties are also eyeing it."

"That's why I married the Daze Dynasty. This matter cannot be changed. I don't know what the princess is thinking."

"But this Marquis doesn't care what the princess thinks, and even in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, no one cares what the princess thinks."

"Marrying with the Daze Dynasty will benefit the border wars, so everything is doomed, if the princess is willing to listen to Ben Hou."

"Then don't make extravagant problems, and don't have too many thoughts, otherwise the people will be ruined, and the country will even collapse."

Wei Wuhou's voice was very calm. Under the mask, he did not look at Xia Qingmo, but at the world.

He has already said what he should say, and he doesn't want to say anything more.

"knew."

At this moment, Xia Qingmo's voice sounded, saying everything in three simple words.

Soon, Xia Qingmo returned to the boat to rest.

And Wei Wuhou was silent, after a long time, he sighed, and he didn't know why.

That's all.

In the blink of an eye.

Three days passed.

this day.

Ye Ping is also going back to the Jin Academy.

It's not that Ye Ping wants to go back to the Jin State Academy, but the main purpose of coming here this time is to ask Xu Luochen about the alchemy.

After getting the answer, he naturally wanted to go back earlier, and it was entirely because Ye Ping wanted to stay in Qingyun Daozong for a longer period of time.

However, on this day.

Ye Ping deliberately found Su Changyu.

"Brother, are you there?"

in the room.

Su Changyu is studying his sword raising skills.

Going out some time ago, although there were some twists and turns, I got the peerless swordsmanship and swordsmanship no matter what.

And since he got the sword, Su Changyu felt more and more good about himself, because whenever a monk appeared in front of him, Su Changyu would copy and fight in his mind.

Although he almost lost a few times, just like the mighty Marquis a few days ago, the final result was a winning streak of hundreds of games.

Be it Ye Ping, Gu Jianxian, Mighty Marquis, Demon God Sect disciple, or passer-by, as long as Su Changyu sees anyone, he has already lost to him.

And heard Ye Ping's voice outside.

Su Changyu immediately woke up from his thoughts.

In an instant, he knew what Ye Ping wanted to do with him.

It must be for that peerless sword intent.

However, Su Changyu has already thought up his speech these days, and now he is waiting for Ye Ping to come to him.

"Enter."

Su Changyu spoke.

The next moment, Ye Ping pushed open the door and walked into Su Changyu's room.

"I have seen the big brother."

Seeing Su Changyu, Ye Ping bowed immediately.

"Little brother, don't be polite."

Su Changyu spoke calmly, and before Ye Ping could speak first, he made a sound.

"Junior brother, do you want to ask me about Jin's peerless sword intent?"

Su Changyu spoke very calmly.

"Well, senior brother, my junior learned the sword intent in the Jin State Academy a few days ago, but I haven't comprehended the peerless sword intent for a long time. I feel that the junior brother may have missed it, so I want to ask the senior brother, where is the peerless sword intent in the Jin State Academy?" place?"

Facing Su Changyu, Ye Ping was not embarrassed at all. He asked straight to the point, wondering where the peerless sword was intended in Jin State Academy.

As soon as he said this, Su Changyu didn't rush to answer.

Instead, he poured Ye Pingran a cup of tea.

After a while, Su Changyu finally spoke.

"Little brother, please remember well that the real peerless sword intent is hidden in the most conspicuous place, and it is also hidden in the least conspicuous place. Senior brother can't tell you too much, otherwise, it won't be peerless sword intent."

Su Changyu said calmly.

In fact, in terms of artistic conception, Su Changyu is indeed very tall, and what he said is full of Zen, but it is a pity that his cultivation is too poor. If his cultivation can keep up, then his words will be more flavorful.

In the room, Ye Ping was a little silent, he was carefully comprehending the elder brother's words.

After a while, Ye Ping showed a look of enlightenment.

"Brother, I understand."

Ye Ping probably understood what Su Changyu meant.

The Jin State Academy must have a peerless sword intent, but the senior brother can't tell himself, if he tells himself, it is not a peerless sword intent. The real peerless sword intent needs to be realized by oneself, not by others' guidance.

"It's good to understand. When you go back to school, take good care of yourself and don't worry us."

Hearing that Ye Ping made it clear, Su Changyu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

Well, very good, finally survived another catastrophe.

"Well, then I won't bother senior brother."

Ye Ping nodded, then got up and left.

until noon.

Ye Ping also bid farewell to the brothers and sisters of the sect one by one.

The senior brothers were also a little bit reluctant, but they knew that Ye Ping must go to the Jin State Academy, and only by going to the Jin State Academy can he truly learn the true Taoism.

But before the fourth and fifth senior brothers left, they each gave Ye Ping two books.

【Complete Collection of Ancient Talismans】

【Three Thousand Treasures of the Great Dao】

The fourth senior brother Xue Zhuan practiced talismans, while the fifth senior brother Lin Bei had a very special occupation, such as appraising treasures.

Ye Ping was overjoyed by the tips from the two senior brothers.

Ye Ping thought that the next time he went back to the sect, he would be able to ask the fourth and fifth senior brothers for advice, but he didn't expect that these two senior brothers had already prepared these experiences for him.

In the end, Ye Ping, who was going to leave at noon, dragged his departure until the end of the day after bidding farewell to everyone.

Daxu stayed in Qingyun Daozong, he didn't want to leave, let alone go to some Jin country academy.

He would rather stay in Qingyun Daozong, wanting to be at ease.

However, in order to prevent Daxu from going outside to cause trouble, Ye Ping added a tight spell on Daxu. As long as Daxu had evil thoughts, no matter who it was towards, the golden hoop would explode, and Ye Ping would sense it immediately.

That's it, everything is settled.

Ye Ping used the teleportation formation to return directly to the academy.

The formation he arranged in the academy has a teleportation mark, so he can go directly back to the Jin Academy.

at the same time.

Outside the Jin State Academy.

Huangfu Tianlong, like in the past, came to the gate of the Jin State Academy.

This has been the case for eight consecutive days.

Huangfu Tianlong would come to Jin State Academy for eight consecutive days, and asked Ye Ping if he had returned.

But the answers he got for eight consecutive days disappointed Huangfu Tianlong.

In a few days, the Ten Nations Competition will begin.

However, just when Huangfu Tianlong was about to return to the inn.

A piece of news came out suddenly.

Ye Ping is back.
